Boy, it'd be nice to be able to post to the Beta newsgroup...

Is it just me, or are we no longer getting automatically prompted to
upgrade beta 3.4? I'm running 481 now, when I launch it doesn't attempt
to upgrade...

I also noticed that, with 483 (which I installed fresh after downloading
from the website), when I try to bring up a stats page with the "/stats"
or "/s" command, that the web page displays in the 3d pane - NOT in the
Web Pane. This happens whether I have "Show->Web" selected or not.

It's not a display quirk (i.e. the web page is simply being overlaid on
top of the 3d view), the incorrect window is fully navigable, i.e. I can
click on it, etc. It's like the command to bring up the web browser is
sent to the wrong panel object or something...

This doesn't happen when I simply click on HTML links within the 3d
display pane (at least that I've found so far).

Am I the only one?

Can someone repost these to the Beta newsgroup for me?

New in 3.3: you can now specify the special target keyword aw_3d with =
the url command. This causes the triggered web page to replace the 3D =
window instead of being sent to a separate web window. For example:=20


activate url www.activeworlds.com target=3Daw_3d

Once the 3D window has been replaced with a web page, it can be restored =
by clicking on the large X button in the upper right corner of the new =
web page.

Yep, I see it's an option within the "game". I'm guessing the default
changed within Mutation since I was in the world 2 weeks ago, or
something like that. =)

Sorry about the post, though it's not like there's any sort of
documentation or discussion on the subject that I could find =)

[View Quote] When you choose Options - Citizen, does it say "You are on the beta program"?
Closed beta testers still get the new beta versions automatically.
They are also the only ones who can post in the beta newsgroup.
