We're back! :-)
Well, the world and the web site as it was it back. Still no ftp access as
of yet but I'll be adding the new things as soon as I get it.
Apologies to ReneS. er.. Mr. ReneS ;-)

I don't know the details but I think the avatar & skins info is correct. I
think there's plans for changes/enhancements in the next build or two as far
as avatars are concerned. As far as the gaming goes... With the new features
of 3.1 and more on the way, along with the sdk and a bot or 2, I can see
where someone with creativity and talent could make a pretty nice RPG game
right now. Just my .02

Sorry, should have put lol at the end as I was attempting to joke. Yes, I do
ask my ISP what's the problem. Also my phone company since I continually
have problems. Just the other day, the person working on my line *again*
finally told me that the lines around here are over 30 years old, need
replaced but that QWest isn't going to do it until some other company takes
them over. Now at least, the next time my phones go dead I know what to ask
for.

Here's a post from Wayne. Please update your links. Thanks!
Casay

The old URL for MicroMouse Productions and AccuTrans 3D was

http://www.quantumlynx.com/micromouse/index.html

The new URL is

http://www.micromouse.ca/

Reason for the Change: My ISP is moving the old web site to a new
server plus changes to my account now allow the web site to be accessed
using my own domain name.

Casay 168013 stay

I really can't believe this. Sure, Eep comes across as harsh but I think
there's a lot more ppl here that abuse this NG with their swearing, over
posting, incorrect posting etc. Eep speaks his mind, nothing wrong with
that. He also contributes more than most people that post here. I was really
hoping that AW WAS going in the direction of caring about the community and
its citizens. Eep is a citizen, like it or not. He's also one that has done
a lot for the advancement of this company even though he doesn't agree with
the management. He does believe in the technology and it's potential. He, as
well as I and others see the potential of AW. We want it to succeed as much
as AWCI does. He's just vocal about what direction it should go in and how
the company should treat its citizens. Again, there's nothing wrong with
that. The NG charter doesn't say a person has to agree with company policy
or that they can't comment on it.

Now, if you ban Eep for speaking his mind or calling someone a twit, then I
respectfully request that you also ban EVERY single person that has abused
the charter at ANY time. The Derek comes to mind for all his useless and
flamatory postings. How about the person who posted subject- Go F*** a
donkey? I'm sure I'd be on that list also as I've had harsh things to say at
times too, even to Eep himself. Does he ask for me to be banned? No, he
replies or doesn't as he sees fit. I take it all in stride like an adult
even though he's made me mad more than once. Are you banning yourself too?
You better, you've flamed in here just as bad as anyone else over the years
in frustration just like the rest of us. Now that you work for AWCI you're
better than all that???????? *really want to say in imortal words of Eep-
drive through*

I would also like to add, that if this ban goes thru I will no longer be
posting to this or any other AW NG exept beta if still accepted on that list
after this. I will start posting my info soley in Andra's NG. How soon AW
forgets how dead this NG got after the last go around with this.

One more comment since I never commented in all the threads between you and
Eep. Guess I should have.You wrote a nice civil post to him. I thought, he
wrote a really civil post back. Esp for him. I don't think you realize
what's he's trying to say to you? He's darn near begging you to help bring
about community enlightenment with AWCI. He's actually asking for your help
to bring that about. I was hoping for the same from you too. Do you not see
that or are you only reading his posts from a negative viewpoint? Since when
don't you realize that's Eep's problem isn't with what he says but mainly
with HOW he says it. This whole thing needs to stop now, unfortunately, it
seems to late. :-(
Very sad day again for AWCI.
Respectfully,
Casay

Well, go to http://tnlc.net/rw sometime. Usually when Eep posts something
that is helpful it's in the form of a short post with a link to information
in that site. Why? Because he's already answered several of the questions
already and added his new information to the site! Also, get this if you
will; MANY of the bug reports that were posted in the Beta NG were
discovered by none other than Eep himself. Yes, he had the version that
everyone else did for awhile. He spent days with that version and had
several ppl post his findings for him. So, on behalf of the latest 3.1
release I bet he contributed as much or MORE than any other beta tester even
though he only had it for a short period of time. How long have you been in
AW? There's a lot more to this whole story. Take a look at who is posting to
this thread. People that don't usually post here anymore in protest of
monitoring of this very NG. How soon we forget. :-(

Take him for what he is or filter him, whatever, it's your choice. He's a
citizen and has the right to post, just like you have the right to post your
opinion here too. Oh, and Eep 'rarely' curses but he can certainly, with a
quick word or two, bluntly, & precicely cut right into someone. Right, wrong
or otherwise, he's a citizen. For years I've begged him to lighten up. If
you've been around for any period of time you'd know he has. Do you remember
the LONG letters written by Wascally Wabbit, Lucrezia, myself and others
over the years about this very topic? Lu, where are you anyway? Would love
to see you post on all this. I think it's time you stepped in and helped
stop/settle this madness. I'd like to know if AWCI knew in advance that
Facter was posting this or not? I'd really appreciate an answer, thanks.

I'm not sorry for what I posted at all, I stand by every word. I'm just
sorry, that after having just had a long conversation with Facter just the
other day, about how AWCI was working on improving their relationship with
the community, that this even happened. I was really hoping that Facter
would be able to bring that about. I'm very disappointed with all this as so
far as I can see, it seems more like a personal attack on Eep than a
community opinion. If it was different, this would have been done years ago.
I wish it weren't so. So, ask to have yourself banned too for NG charter
abuse if you've ever complained or said something bad, called someone a twit
or anything to someone here.

No apoligies here,
Casay

Seems like you forget how dead the NG's got for awhile huh? There's a lot of
good info that's posted. Most of the worthless, swearing, attacking, hasn't
been from Eep. Or at least not started by him. Re-read all The Derek threads
for a clue here. There's several others posted by young kids that don't
contain any useful information. So what? I appreciate your wanting to try to
help the community but you're going about it all wrong. :-(

I don't think I ever said you weren't trying to do what you thought was the
right thing. I did say, I didn't agree with what you're doing. In principle,
your posting in here as an employee of AWCI and trying to help/explain and
enlighten has been a wonderful breath of fresh air. Just like Roland &
Hamfon being so willing to help and talk to the community. It's something
these NG's have needed for a long time.

On the other hand, I'm very sorry to say that this seemed to have come about
because of a problem between you and Eep personally, not because of a
community problem. You and I know very well that in the past Eep has been a
lot more extreme than he is now. I could go back through all those threads
in that post about the NG server being shut down and give you several
examples of Eep just wanting to know why. He wanted details. At one point,
he was even pretty decent for him in requesting that. No, he's not always
very tactful how he asks, never has been, never will be. Yes, it then got
out of control. I only wish Facter that I had written to you personally
after 3-4 threads in the hopes of stopping it back then. I could see the
writing on the wall from the start and I now feel bad as a long time citizen
that I didn't do something sooner or at least try to.

I can only apologize to the AW community for not replying to all this sooner
and feeling that I have to at least try to step in to pull us back together.
You've split it up, although I'm sure that wasn't your intent, this is
exactly what's happened. Please put a stop to this ASAP.
Respectfully,
Casay

Very simple folks. This is NOT a vote for or against Eep or Facter. Facter
is saying that he wants to follow the will of the community. Please let him
know your opinion, esp all of you that abstained from voting.

To stop
cit name- cit # - Stop

To continue
cit name- cit#- Go on

*Not happy with feeling like I have to start this thread. It's done in the
hopes of preventing a full blown fall out of our community if at all
possible at this point.* jeese, and even the stocks were going up, new great
3.1 version..... sigh....

Sigh, this is reminding me of the old Eep. Sigh, you'll never learn no
matter how hard we try.

I think ByteMe is going to be teaching a class on the new 3.1 commands in
AWU. I'll post details when a date/time is set for the class. He may also
teach the animation/adone/astart/astop commands with it.

Light is restricted because you could flood your neighbors property with it.
Huge abuse potential so a light radius limit was added to the world option.

Please reread what I said, we are saying the same thing I think. Also, it
was reported in the Beta NG when 3.1 first came out about the abuse
potential, then it was added to the world settings as an option.

After ByteMe did the complex actions on the jack in the box in Objectd' we
decided that there would be a use for rotate- rdone/rstop/rstart and same
for moves. Then it was pointed out to me why not an overall generic stop,
start, done. I did post it in the beta NG when we thought of it but it's
something for the wish list.

Hmm interesting. I sure hope Byte huriies up and teaches the class on the
astop/start stuff, I could sure use it. That and more examples on the help
page. lol

I agree 100% it would be a nice courtesy if world owners notified before
deleting. I'm sure some do, others don't and that's goes along with how
different ppl are in AW. Although is costs more to own a world this is one
reason why many have decided to get one. When you build in a private world
you're expecting someone to continue paying every year to keep it going.
There's no assurance that someone will re-new one though.

I've built some great places in worlds that no longer exist. Xavworld comes
to mind. It's no longer around. My chidren and I spent almost a week
straight making a home there. I didn't ever expect her not to change the
world though as I knew she might at any time. She had before, her right to
do so though since she was the one paying for the license, hosting etc. I
did take screen shots of it. At least my kids and I do have a great memory
of creating our dream house.

I've always appreciated worlds like Storage and Nova and those world owners
have taken a lot of time to open them up to building. Places like Friends!
have done the same although you have to ask.

If you want something forever though you can't rely on someone else to not
get bored with their world and/or have an earthquake or something happen.
( Like Bit did). I know from your other posts that money is tight for you
but getting your own world might be something to save up for. Hosting a
small world on your PC works well so you won't have the hosting costs at
least. Then you'll have your creations forever and can even make your own
objects at that point too. :-) *that's when it really gets fun*

Just my .02

Yes, be sure to post your Lightwave question in the Accutrans NG on Andras's
server. news://andras.net/accutrans
Also, Wayne has a lot of information about what AccuTrans can and can't read
as far as file formats go, including LightWave, in the help file. Look under
help | 3d formats. One thing it doesn't support is spline based objects at
this time. If that's what you are trying to convert, then it won't work.

If you are creating the object in LW, you might try playing around by saving
in other formats and then use AccuTrans to convert to rwx. That's the only
thing I can think of off hand that might allow you to convert spline based
objects. Also, Princess Tia might be a good resourse for you to ask about
converting LightWave objects. She has the world Zuzu. You might catch her
there. Be sure to look at their Avatars, they are very nice and some (all?)
are made in Lightwave I think.

Thought they were collectively named Uniservers. I do like Eep's idea
though. ;-)

Jeese, this is coming from you????? "...what's the point in bringing it up
in the newsgroup?" At least it's AW related unlike the majority of your
posts.
