If an avatar is standing on the other side of a wall from you, you can
still see it. Is it possible to turn that off so that you have to look around the wall to see the other avatar? Same is true for avatars underground. It would make "hide n' seek" games much more fun and challanging... -- §~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ § Rehabber of Cyberia § http://www.geocities.com/southbeach/pier/3361 §~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ § Far away from this life that you're living, § You will find a whole new beginning.... §~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Roland!

I would really like the ability to use two different backdrop colors at the same time, maybe split at the ground level.

would make for better looking movement. It really gripes me to see the avatars legs moving like its walking when you are really flying.

Changing colors of you name on contact lists so folks will know your
status by adding one more pulldown at the top row menu. Maybe call it "status" or something similar. black text could represent you are here and can chat with anyone. red text could represent you are busy and not to be disturbed. blue text could represent you are away from your keyboard at the moment. green text could represent that you are building and should only be interupted for important issues or informative (not to be responded to) telegrams.

yeah, the colors really don't matter much to me as long as there is a way to show your current
status.. heck, they could just change the color of the check mark to reflect status and that would do the trick too..

How about making an open newsgroup called "AWShout" for everyone to post
anything. Bashers, complainers, whiners and anyone else that dosen't fit in those catagories but still have a need to vent will all have a place to go. American StarsDec 5, 1999, 8:03pm
I used to do that at America's GZ along time ago. It was quite enjoyable
to help folks get a good start with building and being a part of that community. My friend Chadd gave me assistance when I first became a citizen and he said his repayment would be for me to help others. I followed that lead and asked those I helped to help others. I look upon those times as "The Good Old Days"... Alas, things change and people move on. I would highly recommend this job to anyone looking to be involved with community spirit and I can't think of any better place (other than my world) to be a part of a community than America...

yes it is possible.. a few years back in the Outerworlds universe they were
offering a "patched" browser where you could run AW and OW at the same time.. you could also move the "patched" browser to your AW folder and run two sessions of AW at the same time..

hahahahaha... $5.3 million... geeze.. I would think a mere $5000 to $10,000
would get you a program that would do everything AW does and more. I've been exploring a bit on what is already out there available and with the services of a decent programmer you could assemble your very own "Just Like Active Worlds" and run it the way you want it to be run; source code is everywhere... Heck, you could prolly just contact Exovision and buy their now defunct 3D chat program (build, voice, avatars, multi-user, personal "worlds", etc..) for a couple grand. A little tweaking and you'd have a fine AW'ish program. Then, and here's the key, advertise!!!

nope.. United States equals Americans or the American culture.. say what you
mean/mean what you say.. take away everything else and then ask 1000 people what United States means and you will get 1000 identical answers or very close to identical; it means America (unless of course you are trying to make a point and will say something like "United States" doesn't always equal "American"... It just means a group of communities"). Before America there was no United States of anything and since American any United States of anything seeks to emulate that society. Don't get me wrong with my posts here, I think organizing worlds or towns is a good thing since it allows the sharing of ideas, objects, talent etc... I just think the name implys a bit of elitism or possibly a bit of exclusion if you are not American or aligned with the American culture.. just my humble opinion, take it or leave it..

Hello everyone... Some of you out there know me and I'm sure many
don't. I've been a citizen in AW for going on 4 years now and in my time here I've modeled a bunch of objects and avatars, owned a bunch of worlds and generally made a nuisance of myself in as many circles as I could find. My worlds have ranged from sci-fi to pagan themes with minimal participation at best. In my quest to crack that nut and put forth a group of worlds where interest continues after the initial build I've decided to, again, change gears and implement a new and hopefully exciting idea surrounding my worlds. Soooo, here's my pitch: I'm looking for folks that are bored with their current activity in AW who are creative and willing to join up for the long haul. I have 3 worlds (online 24/7) and I'm creating a "role playing environment" which links all three worlds together in the same "space" yet all three are different in inhabitants and terrain. This RPE will be set in a distant galaxy with no association (unless coincidental) to earth history. Each world will have its own culture, religion, history, government etc and my intent here is to hand over caretaker status to the leaders of two of the worlds. I will retain the leadership on my home world with at least one assistant, and I would like at least the same on the remaining two worlds. Each world leadership will be responsible for maintaining continuity in the RPE as well as maintaining the general operation on the world. With the latest issue in these newsgroups surrounding world ownership/copyrights etc, I want to lay out the ground rules up front. Anything created for one of the worlds will remain with that world as long as that world remains "in costume" regarding this RPE. The creator of the thing (model, avatar, texture, etc) retains ownership but will not use or distribute the thing to or on another world unless the RPE ends. If the RPE ends then any thing not created by me or obtained through the network of model makers which is used for this RPE will be deleted from the object paths and backups, and will not be used on any of my worlds again unless permision is granted from the maker. I call this a role playing environment since I don't see it as a game. I see this as having a common interest in being "in costume" while in AW but having the freedom to go your own direction as long as it fits within the continuity of the environment ( eg, I dont' want snowmen on a desert world). My idea here is that each world is independently governed with the inhabitants having voting rights on its development. In turn, the world leaders will meet occationally to insure that the worlds are properly maintained. Here are the people I'm looking for: non-world owners (you already have your hands full with your own projects), model/avatar makers, texture makers, folks that are handy creating web pages, and above all, folks are are willing to be dedicated to this project and its future. Now, for you world owners out there that think this might be of interest. In my current writings surrounding this RPE I've grouped and named 36 stars, some binary systems, in our cluster with 28 inhabitable planets. It would cost me a small fortune to finance all 28 planets. There is plenty of room to include your world in this RPE if your current theme seems boring or if you want to try something different. The only stipulation is that you have a world name fitting to this RPE since "Bubbaland" just doesn't lend itself well to the "feel" of this environment. I know that this all might seem a bit cloudy right now and I apologize, but I'm working fast and hard on getting all the details down on paper so there is a solid base to build from. My goal is to create and maintain a website with a complete definition of what this RPE is all about; a reference area to aid in keeping consistancy and a place for new people to learn the ins and outs. Please contact me by email if you are interested in signing up for this new project and thank you for reading this post to the end.
