HOW ROBINWOOD GETS BUILT
Robinwood was made with AI. These are the working methods, written down — three illustrated guides and three companion skills, free to read here or download and keep.
WHAT THESE ARE
Each guide takes one part of the job from a brief to a validated file: shaping terrain and getting it out as something a simulator will actually load, populating that terrain without trampling what is already there, and modelling meshes that survive the trip into a region.
They were written from the Robinwood and PlaySim workflow, so the examples are real ones. They separate offline checks from things you can only confirm in a viewer, and they say which is which.
READ IN THIS ORDER
GUIDE 1 · 6 PAGES
Create a heightfield, preserve meter scale and orientation, encode and verify LLRAW and R32, then test a terrain import.
You end up with: A float master, 13-channel LLRAW, R32 terrain, labeled previews and a manifest recording scale, axes, water and validation.
Companion skill $opensim-terrain-llraw
GUIDE 2 · 6 PAGES
Catalog assets, fit objects to the ground, protect paths and existing work, package dependencies, and test an OAR merge.
You end up with: A reproducible placement manifest, a north-up plan with exclusion zones, and a self-contained object-only OAR.
Companion skill $opensim-terrain-object-placement
GUIDE 3 · 8 PAGES
Model detailed geometry, plan texture faces, bake readable textures, create LODs and physics, script doors, and validate the actual exports.
You end up with: Editable Blender source, Collada upload files with UVs and material-face maps, LODs and simple collision geometry.
Companion skill $opensim-mesh-builder
THE COMPANION SKILLS
Each guide has a matching skill that packages the same method as instructions your AI assistant can follow — two written for this documentation, one lifted from the Robinwood project itself.
$opensim-terrain-llraw
New
Islands, mainland, varregions, terrain maps, coastal grading or LLRAW conversion.
$opensim-terrain-object-placement
New
Landscape population, mesh libraries, terrain-aware placement, and preserving existing region content during additions.
$opensim-mesh-builder
Project skill
Buildings, props, modular paths, signs, HUD meshes, or scriptable light assemblies intended for in-world import.
