How about a set of 4 and 8 meter curved glass panels a' la Nomad? Glass and
Opaque maybe? Of course, since there's no 3-axis rotation in Alpha
(grumbles), you'd want to make some 90 degree rotated sets too. And the
rounded floors that go with them. I've had a ball with that old set for
years in my builds. Very versatile.

How about some more updated avs.. like the ones you see in poser or other
programs.
As far as objects, heck, I just discovered the megapath, LOL.

How about some basic building block objects...like cubes, spheres, cones,
domes, ropes (especially ropes/wire), logs...those have endless uses, as
long as they're textureable.

btw what would happen if you copy and pasted the avatar files to the models
folder? Would that allow us to use avatars as objects? The groom doesn't
make a very good shop keeper, his huge smile is kinda creepy and scares away
business >_<

You can do that... I have all the avatars in my models directory for my
world, and you can use them just fine (however you should keep in mind that
avatars are usually a lot more complicated than building objs and you can
easily kill all your low-end visitors with them)

An easy way to do this without moving aything anywhere use this name in
the object property box "../avatars/special1.rwx"

If you have the avatar rwx name use that instead of special1.rwx

(whew... just added a bunch new stuff ;)

It should, but the problem is that the avatar "names" on the list, don't coincide with the ACTUAL zipped rwx names.....
so you'll hafta read the avatars.dat file, from your "objects.activeworlds.com/aw" art folder, in your cache, and get the actual
file names from it....

I.E. "MrTourist" is ACTUALLY 'male.rwx'
"MsTourist" is ACTUALLY 'female.rwx"

You can open the avatars.dat file in Notepad.... it's just a text file with a different (.dat) extension..... understand ?


If not, I'll post the alphaworld avatars.dat file and you can see what I mean
Hope this helps

Erm... no. The reason specifying an alternate directory to 'models' (ie: ../avatars/bleh.rwx) doesn't work in AW is because those objects aren't declared in its object registry, and hence they result in the oh-so-reliable Building Inspector promptly reporting that 'only registered objects may be used for construction'.

Yea, well there are countless objects in the OP that should be put into the
registry as well as the avatars. ex) Those nice birch trees.

Time is money, Enzie. Don't you want money? :-P

Hell, there's plenty of us danger loving types, myself included, who'd be more than happy to volunteer to put junk on the path for
them...... ;O)
Certainly couldn't be any slower than it has been the past few years......

My biggest gripe is the lack of 3D Trees. And the lack of move and rotate
commands for Alpha Prime.

Mar 6, 2003, 6:38pm

Hrmm. :\
