Hey everyone,
Is there a way to get the sim texture, but without a script? I know there are scripts out there that do it, but I want to be able to get it myself. Any responses are appreciated. Thanks.

Are you looking for the .RAW terrain file or just a snapshot of the sim at any given moment?

I was looking for a way to get a snapshot of the sim. Is there anyway to manually rip the sim map in a .jpg file or another type of image?

SLURL.com...and do a print screen, edit then update to SL.

...or a print screen with the Map Window open.

There isn't a menu item if that's what you're looking for...each SIM image has to have an UUID, so I would think it there is a simple (free) script out there, somewhere, that can put the image on a prim for you.

Alright thanks Wicked. I'll poke around for the script.

If you have a Mysti-Tool, use the SLURL button - one of the URLs it gives you will be for a jpg of the sim, like what you see in the map or the SLURL site.

If you don't have a Mysti-Tool get one! It's got a thousand other great features.
