Download of the software OpenSim 0.9.3

Important notes:

• Larger grids, including the OSGrid shown here as an example, offer special preconfigured OpenSim downloads. There, the grid-specific settings are already set appropriately.
• For independent operation without a third-party Grid, some things must be configured additionally or differently. When indicated, see the page “Standalone mode” here in the instructions.
• OpenSim version 0.9.3 requires .NET 6.0 and (on Linux) libgdiplus.

Current reference for this text is the following developer version from OSGrid:

• OSgrid OpenSimulator osgrid-opensim-03312024.v0.9.3.0d1b14c of 31/03/2024

In the newer developer versions the configuration probably deviates slightly.

First, download the OpenSim package from one of the following websites, at the last check there was no 0.9.3 release available on opensimulator.org:

• OpenSimulator: http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Download
• OSGrid: https://www.osgrid.org/download.php

Unpack this package now, and copy the directory “bin” including all sub-directories completely to the server. This tutorial uses the directory path “/home/maria/opensim/bin/...”.
