Wonderful Imprudence

Since Meshes were brought to Opensim, we all have been told about the necessity to change viewers in order  to manage the new 3D format. Most of them were upgrading one after another, but not Imprudence. It has been tough for builders and creators who like me, keep thinking of Imprudence as the best. In fact many of us keep using it when not working with meshes. Also I keep using it to Export-Import my creations from one grid to another.  It was doing that, that I discovered meshes were exported-imported perfectly well too by Imprudence. Yes you can`t see them LOL, but they are right there rezzed in front of you. You only need to change viewer to one supporting meshes and you will see.
See what I mean:


-------------------------Firestorm viewer --------------------------





-----------------Imprudence viewer before Exporting----------------


-----------------Importing by Imprudence in another grid--------


---------------Result after reloging with Firestorm------------------
And here it is, as good as new. What is most remarkable: the awesome result. Nothing compared with what you get with another viewer who claims this feature (export-import meshes) officially implemented.
The shame thing with Imprudence is that you are importing xml format instead of dae, that means you will lose skinning on wearables. Fortunately my shoes are wearable by simple attachment so, no problem :)
