Reverse SRAS Support? #4

Closed hack13 closed 2 years ago

hack13 commented 9 years ago

I was wondering if you were planning on reverse support for how SRAS stores assets? If not, I might consider forking and adding that support, so grids like many I host since SRAS has come out now official abandoned, I would like to help make for my clients as well as people out in the metaverse using SRAS a way to keep storing their assets the way they are but move to a PHP front-end.

The only reason I bring this up, is because even with the new "XAssets" feature that contains de-duplication we are still dumping raw blobs into a database and that's just not a clean way to store tons of assets. They should be stored as files, well at least that's how I feel.

the idea of putting blobs is only being told to be bad. Actually, MySQL has a certain support that is specific for storing blobs out of table storage. But this was done definitely wrong on XAssets. Just noticed that request right now.
