Ya I know that it needs texture, but the resolution of the texture would not
change anything if its a ground object. I think it's rather the object size
that would change something. Look at the object xaw28.rwx you'll see what
I'm talking about. The misunderstanding is probably my fault, hehe, I've
difficulties to express my ideas in english.

Agree 100% with Ste. And also, the amount of life experience you got does

I have a friend that still uses 3.3 because he hates navigation in 3.4. I
know you can change it so it's the same as 3.3 but anyone that doesn't take
the time to play with the configuration don't. This may be one of the
problems. Anyway... didn't AWI said that 3.4 will be forced upgrade ?

I run my world "Unreal" on another computer that I just received. There's
only the Active World server and WinMe installed on it. The world server
says that the world is connected to local and that there's no error. In my
AW browser, the world appear in the list, but when I click on it to teleport
in it, the browser keeps saying "Looking for Unreal..." and I am not able to
enter it. Any help would be very appreciated.

I do use a router, Buildzerz. Though, I don't understand what you're talking

subnet mask and a gateway are ? And how can I change them under WinMe ?

Thanks.

Thanks a lot Andras. I had problems with my files transfers and yesterday I

understand better and as I can see it's mostly a port thing. Fortunatly it
will be easier to solve my problems with your post :-) Networks are more

Telegram from Bastillion, sent just now:
Hello, noticed your post in the newsgroups, correcting the French person's
"cat/chat"... do you, by chance, happen to know what they were talking
about? I would like to get the Preston bot to change the colors in my chat
window.. if that is what they were referring to.
--

Ok maybe it needs to be re-translated. I'll do it the best as I can but I
didn't post that so if you still don't understand there's nothing else I can
do.


Your chat in color? Simple.
Use Preston Bot.
Put the command (order) for colours: sentence as: nothing
Misk / announce
Recipient: nothing
Message: %a: %r (keep the same spacing that here between %a and %r)
Color: your blue, yellow color..
Bold 1 or 0
Then go to option/world/features/options/ here enable "hide chat"


I can't even understand it myself so maybe you won't be able as well, but I
hope it will be helpfull for those who know how that works and who own a
Preston and would like to change their world's chat color.

I think the best way to prevent these ejections is to give the gatekeepers
only the PS right. Then, if there's a trouble maker, they just need to call
a PK. Do they really need the eject right ?
