Well, I think the purpose of this newsgroup is to get feedback about your
ideas, because sometimes we forget some very important details and our idea
and it just doesn't make sense. Then, after the idea is discussed, you can
post it in the suggestion box on the AW site. I don't think the wishlist is
actually read by AWI, but the suggestion box is.

Since I enter AW and started to build... something always bugged me : the
way the sound works. The is currently no way to put, like in a game, music
in your builds. There should be a "music" command. Let me explain.

The problem with the sound command is that the volume of the music will
change depending on your avatar's position.

The noise command is fine with that, but it doesn't support streaming mp3
files. The help files say "Noises are intended for providing short, quick
sound effects (e.g. a door opening) that uses should hear despite what other
sounds may currently be in effect nearby." What about a command like this
but for music ? Since AW is an online software, I think it is necessary that
this command allows streaming mp3, because people don't want to lose sound
quality by compressing their files too much.

I also found this on the page http://www.activeworlds.com/help/aw36/mp3.html
:

"MP3 SUPPORT.
Active Worlds 3.1 supports the use of sound files encoded in the MP3 file
format with the sound and noise commands.

Some people have misinterpreted support for the MP3 file format in Active
Worlds 3.1 as intended to support full-length CD-quality song files, or to
support "streaming" MP3 files.

Active Worlds 3.1 does not support streaming MP3, it simply supports the MP3
file format itself for sound files that are downloaded and played by the
browser, the same as WAV files. Furthermore, while in theory a full-length
CD-quality song could be used in Active Worlds, the download size of such
files (typically several megabytes) are still prohibitive and will prevent
most users on low-bandwidth connections from hearing them in a timely
fashion."

Now that we have the media command, this is not an argument...

And what about using the media command ? I thought of something and tested
it : I made an object called music.rwx and put the following into the action
field :

activate media url=www.example.com/music/mymusic.mp3 radius=9999 (so the
sound doesn't fade depending on the avatar's position) name=speaker

After this, I made few objects called "speaker" and put few of them randomly
in a specific area. At the beggining, I was sure the sound would stop as
soon as music.rwx would be out of the visibility range. But it worked : the
music continued to play. So I thought I finally discovered a solution to my
problem until I walked a little farther and the sound stopped. I think I
know why :

At the moment the sound was activated (when I clicked on music.rwx) , 3
objects around were called "speaker". So the music played on them. But as
soon as some new "speaker" objects appear, the browser doesn't seem to
associate them anymore with the media command I put on music.rwx. So when
all the "speaker" objects that were playing music when I activated the media
are out of range, the music stops, even if there's still some objects called
"speaker" around you.

But even if this issue was fixed, it wouldn't be practical since we'd need
to make a lot of "speaker" objects for the music to stay and this would
increase the cell data.

We need a command that will play the music with a constant volume, no matter
where is your avatar regarding the object, and that support streaming MP3s,
WAVEs and MIDIs.

I always hated people who just critiscized and complained without giving
solutions... destructive people... but that's not Eep case. It's FAR from
being his case. I think he's the most constructive poster in these NGs. He
might be rude sometimes but I respect him a lot : he always has solution to
offer and he KNOWS what he is talking about. I know his website since 2
years and I really admire how hard this guy worked. I think you should take
a look at his website maybe you'll change your opinion about him...

Sorry I can't post in beta newsgroup I'm not beta tester but I'd like to
know if anyone's also having this problem. I just reseted my world and
enabled Terrain. My terrain visibility is no higher than 100m ! On the other
worlds like AWTeen, the visiblity much more longer, just like it's supposed
to be in 3.4. I also used MagsBot to edit the world's terrain height and
texture. Does anyone know why ?

A repeated ground object wouldn't be better to simulate rain ? Otherwise
with a skybox the rain would be too big. Try to put xaw28.rwx (from the

Oh no I'm not talking about this kind of rain. The rain you are talking
about is on the background (you can't touch it). With a reapeting ground
object, you would be IN the rain, if you understand what I mean. Rain is not
a texture, it should be an object.
