I have my own uniserver and I'd like to teleport around by clicking on URL's
on web pages, does anyone know how to create a teleport.cgi script, similar to that of the one that ActiveWorlds is using? See how if you click on a link on the web page, it will open up AW browser, and teleport you to that location. Any ideas on how I could get something like this up and running? Mark mark.malewski at nextechcom.com teleport.cgi script?Mar 26, 2003, 4:24am
Ok, weird. It works on my local machine, but I tried it on two other
computers, and it will simply "download" a file, but it doesn't teleport the user. Why would it work on one computer, but not the others? Also, where is it supposed to download the file to? Mark [View Quote] teleport.cgi script?Mar 27, 2003, 6:27pm
How do I associate the MIME-type of the file to the AW browser? What is the
MIME/file name or type that I'm trying to associate? Where do I do this at? Could you please give me some step by step instructions. (I apologize, I'm a newbie) Thanks, Mark [View Quote] teleport.cgi script?Mar 27, 2003, 7:40pm
Ok, after doing some tinkering... I figured out what was wrong. Yes, it was
a file association problem. I had more than one AW browser installed, and the reason the script wasn't working was it was trying to load up the first browser installed on my machine. I also figured out how to fix this problem. If you click on the "start" button, and then click on "control panel" then click on "folder options" then click on "file types" tab. Then scroll down to "AWT". Next click on the AWT file extension, it should say "aworld document". Click on the AWT file type, and then click on the "advanced" tab. It should say "Actions:" and directly under that it should say "open". Click on the "open" command, and click "edit". It should say application used to perform action: "C:\Active Worlds\aworld.exe" Next, add a "%1" to the end like this: It should say "aworld document". Click on the AWT file type, and then click on the "advanced" tab. It should say "Actions:" and directly under that it should say "open". Click on the "open" command, and click "edit". It should say application used to perform action: If you have the Hope Community Church browser it should say: "C:\Program Files\hope\aworld.exe" %1 That should fix it....

I'm looking for a program to view/browse local RWX files. Would it be
possible to create a "rwx" plugin for the P3dO browser to support Active World RWX files? http://www.senosoft.com/softp3do.php Also, instead of having "Object Yards" would it be possible to create a web-based viewer (possibly php based) that could browse a directory and create thumbnail images of all the objects? Then when you click on a thumbnail it would open the object up in a larger window? (a web-based viewer) RWX browser/modelerMar 24, 2003, 1:30pm
<sigh> That would have been great if we could have gotten him to add .rwx
support. I wonder how hard it would be to write a plugin on our own? The program supports plugins, and I'm sure there are plenty of developers on the list. Maybe someone would be willing to help write a plugin so we could view AW RWX files using that p3dO browser? Mark [View Quote] RWX browser/modelerMar 24, 2003, 8:45pm
Katrine,
Yeah, I don't think Yarp is familiar with the AW .rwx file standard. Maybe we can get some of the guys (Ananas, and Andras) to help him? If he could add AW's .rwx support, that would be awesome! It would make a great file browser for viewing local files, and viewing ..jpg, .gif, .cob, and .rwx files locally on your machine. It supports EVERYTHING, including 3D Studio, TrueSpace/Caligari objects (COB) files, Bryce files, and "The Sims" files. Now if we could only convince him to add AW's .rwx support. Here is a list of all the file types this browser currently supports: http://www.senosoft.com/softp3doFileFormat.php Everyone, please drop Yarp an E-mail, (yarp at senosoft.com) and ask him to support the AW .rwx file type! Mark [View Quote] RWX browser/modelerMar 26, 2003, 1:27am
I wasn't saying that Yarp is incompetent. I was just saying that we have
people like Ananas and Andras on this thread that have experience in dealing with .rwx browsers (that support the AW .rwx files). I don't believe the AW ..rwx files are exactly 100% compliant with .rwx (correct me if I'm wrong). But by having Ananas and Andras work together with Yarp, they could create a nice plugin (that would work well with AW 3.3/3.4 and hopefully all AW .rwx files). I talked to Yarp about it, and he didn't seem against it. If he has documentation, on how to create a plugin for his browser, then it might be worth looking into. It really would be awesome to have a browser such as this to view local .rwx files. Mark [View Quote] RWX browser/modelerMar 26, 2003, 4:21am
Ananas,
I posted the plugin SDK here: http://objects.nextechcom.com/downloads/c3d_sdk.zip You can download it, and see if it answers some/most of your questions. [View Quote] Creating a nice .RWX browser...Mar 24, 2003, 8:33pm
Ananas/Andras,
I've been looking for a good .RWX browser, but the only thing I've found was the RWXLook/Mod viewer (that I've been unable to get to work). I stumbled across a nice file browser on the Internet, it allows you to quickly browse ..jpg, .gif, as well as .cob files in a nice browser window. (So you can easily view files on your local machine). Only problem is that it does not support .rwx files. I contacted the author of the program (Yarp), and he said he may be willing to add .rwx support. I really don't know much about .rwx, but I know that you wrote a browser (rwxmod) that I can't seem to get working (because it can't find the textures). But I was wondering (since you're familiar with .rwx) if you could help "Yarp" create a plugin for his browser that will support AW .rwx files. This way people can download his free browser, and view .rwx files in a window (along with .jpg, .gif, .cob, etc.) just like a file explorer. http://www.senosoft.com/softp3do.php If anyone knows of a browser out there that has this type of functionality, please let me know. But I've looked everywhere and I haven't been able to find a good browser/viewer. Especially not one as good as this one. If you'd be interested in such a browser, please send Yarp an E-mail letting him know that you'd appreciate his willingness to add AW .rwx support to his great browser. Yarp's e-mail address is: yarp at senosoft.com Re: P3DO ExplorerMar 26, 2003, 2:08am
That's great! That's awesome that Yarp's going to finally support the AW
..rwx files in his file browser! Long live Yarp! Mark If anyone wants to take a look, the browser can be found here: http://www.senosoft.com/softp3do.php [View Quote] PayPal IPN and subscriptionsApr 3, 2003, 3:36pm
Has anyone written a script for a Xelagot that would work with PayPal?
I have a UniServer, and I was wondering if it is possible to do three things: 1) Create a link on a web page for a Register Now button, and when it's clicked, the user can make a payment with PayPal, and upon successful payment a "bot" would then use the username and password generated by PayPal to create (and enable) a new user account (using that user name and password). For example if a 1 year subscription was made, the bot would create and enable a new user account with an expiration date of 1 year with that user name and password generated by PayPal. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/xcl/rec/subscription-pass-manual The new user would then use the login & password (that was E-mailed by PayPal) to login (as a citizen), and then they could change the screen name (and password) to whatever they like using the "Options -> citizen" menu in the browser. 2) Create a webpage with a PayPal 1 month "renewal button" and use an "option field" for the Citizen number, so that when clicked, and Payment was received by PayPal then the bot would extend a citizen's expiration date (for a particular citizen number) by one month. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick-sub-factory If a six month renewal was paid, then it would extend the citizen's expiration date by 6 months. If a 1 year renewal was paid, then it would extend the citizen's expiration date by one year. Upon receiving payment, the bot would update the citizen's account, and extend it accordingly (based upon the length of the subscription). 3) Create a script so that when you click on the "register" button on the AW Browser it would accept a PayPal payment, and then upon accepting payment, a bot would create and enable a new user account? How would I go about doing something like this? Is it possible? Mark PayPal IPN and subscriptionsApr 8, 2003, 1:15pm
Yes, my universe is legal, but what do you mean use the "built in system"?
There is no "built in system". The "built in system" doesn't point towards anything. If you click on the register button, it just gives you a free membership. I heard you can write an API for skipjack, or some other merchant software. I was asking if it were possible to write one for PayPal instead. So what would I use, the SDK? Is it even possible to do this? If so, how would I go about doing it? Mark [View Quote] teleport.cgi script?Mar 22, 2003, 4:52pm
