Bleh if you wanna move fast you just go into move with mouse mode, get off
the ground, hold ctrl down, and slide your mouse forward. Us SW'ians called
it maching, cause you'd travel *extremely* fast. Could travel from one side
of town to the other in maybe a minute. Nothing comes close to it, except
teleporting of course =P

Then I'll break out some PK action within minutes. 3 axis beats a little
petty vandal by a landslide IMO. And personally I don't have any of my
objects next to anybody who would do that, lol. Prolly applies to most
people. Why build next to an enemy/trouble maker?

Hopefully ENZO or someone can answer this in a little bit more detail than
simply "not enough room". Maybe then someone can offer some assistance
cause right now I haven't heard any clear answer on what the problem is. I
know a lot of people who depended on AWmapper, and suddenly *poof* it's gone
without much of a reason... Another Alphaworld feature lost after the
price hikes. How ironic.

Too much work? AWI doesn't even do the work. The last I saw on AWmapper
news was "still waiting for AW to send propdump". Pieter, I think his name
was, did it on his computer, and AWI hosted the finished work.

Even if AWI did do the work, as far as I know from the "about AW mapper"
page, it took about 3 days and was mostly an automated process anyway. Well,
if that's indeed the real reason, that's just fueling the fire. As said,
we're paying more money, and they do less work? O_o

Personally, I enjoyed AW's night-mode, or sunset mode, which they would
activate for a couple days every once in a while (maybe 4 or 5 times a year
I guess). It was a nice break from the norm.

[View Quote]

Jul 19, 2003, 9:33pm

I'm very skeptical they were planning on keeping that TOD thing. I mean, it
made no sense at all. For those that don't remember, it would be normal,
then sunset 15 minutes later, then ??? with strong white fog, then dark,
then...etc etc, it didn't roll and basically made no sense. lol I think
they were just testing something, I dunno. It was waaayyy too bad to be a
permanent thing, I'm sure AWI realized that.

[View Quote] Basic objects. Spheres, blocks, cones, and a rope object. It's pretty sad

I guess RWX, to keep it simple memorization-wise.

I would like that, personally, yes.

REVAMPED! It's an embarrasement now. Outdated information, ground not even
covered, z buffereing, and teleports to very very old places in AW. Back
then they may of been hot stuff, but it's pretty basic now-a-days.

Considering AWI owns so many objects from other worlds, they already got
most of the work done. Be nice if they uploaded them to Alphaworld. Also,
back in the days of Factor, he claimed we could submit objects to
Alphaworld. Not ever sure what happened to that...bring it back maybe?

> 6. Does Alphaworld need any more new sounds in its object path?

Nah.

Jul 19, 2003, 1:22am

Well, I understan, but I dunno how practical is it..I mean, it may be
comfortable to us, but anyone new to AW will see the the AWGZ and kinda cock
their head at it, especially compared to AW Gate. AWGZ and AWGate were both
major chat zones, but now it's just AWGate. What happened? AW Gate
changed, AW GZ did not, that's all I can think of. There's hardly any
activity at AW GZ anymore, what are we holding onto?


Ah well, we're all entired to an opinion eh? My opinion is that there's no
strong reason to not overhaul it =X


[View Quote]

Jul 19, 2003, 5:48am

It's already preserved at AWGZ world...and, newAW? It's like a fancy RPG
world by the looks of it. I "live" in Alphaworld, and intend to stay there.
It's in my best interest to see the world improve, and I honestly don't see
the ancient and rotting GZ here helping any. History seems to be the only
argument to keep it, whereas there's so many more reasons to overhaul
it...you gotta ask yourself - how relevant is historic build in AW?...to the
point where it could actually not helping the world's community? Yes, new
folks are going to really look as AW as primitive because the new AWGate is
totally awesome, which is where they're coming from.

Sure a lotta polls lately..ah well I'm bored..*answer*

> 1.) What should the next version number be? 3.5 or 4.0?
3.5. I think 4.0 would indicate a major graphics overhaul with the
renderware engine.

> 2.) What should the next version's features be?
Well, it'd be nice if they improved the current features they got. E.g.
terrain and move/rotate, so that maybe the rest of us could use it =P

> 3.) Does it need any GUI changes/improvements? How much of GUI
> changes/improvement does it need? What kind of specific GUI
> changes/improvement do you have in mind if there is any?

Not really, it's fine. A way of checking a cell's capacity would be nice,
and easy to add I would think.

> 4.) What type of features are most needed? (building features, world
> features, server features, etc.)

Security features...A lot of people have my ppw, since SW City does some
major build projects under my name. I want a way of checking who's using my
ppw, and be able to kick them off it. An integrated backup feature would be
handy to. And the block join requests option was done backwards if you ask
me. Instead of specifying who's blocked, why not just tell it who can join
without permission?

> 5.) What are most needed feature in term of priority?

Wasn't that question 4?

> 6.) Anything else related to next version?

Also the countries banned from using AW...I wonder if they'll be removing
Iraq from that list any time soon? `,'
