Alright folks,

I'm back, and not to whine and complain (cause I know AW hates that).

This is a true wishlist for 3.1 or 3.2 AW that would catch them up to =
the pack in ratings. I am also adding a "How To" after each one to give =
the polygon gods a few ideas on how to accomplish the impossible :)

1. First order of business: AW 3.1 will have lighting, as in being able =
to create an object and say "you're a light, now brighten the room damn =
it!". This should be amazingly good for metatropolis (and even lower =
the crime rate).

2. Second: Ok, I looked into the reflectivity thing and got a general =
idea of why Roland keeps telling me "No Way, No How." As I see it, =
reflectivity (mirrors and such) depend on a closed world atmosphere with =
set boundries (ie: Quake III, UNREAL, Genesis 3D). So what I figure is =
that the AW browser doesn't impose boundries... it just says "you can't =
build past such and such point". General solution: the end of the world =
is truly the end of the world, you can't even walk past the edge. this =
should make reflectivity a little easier to handle :)

3. ok, I've heard it all before: "Darian, if we put the option to load =
custom avatars in AW, everyone would do it and it would slow everyone =
down." I thought about it for awhile and realized it wouldn't... there =
is a download limiter already embeded and the custom avatars should =
count as objects (right?) so the users can lower their download limits =
and viola, that problem is solved.

4. what about custom object paths that the builder can specify? so =
instead of using an object from the main path (pict3.rwx) they could =
specify this as the object name:

www.vr6online.net/awobjects/pict4.rwx

(don't bother clicking that address folks it doesn't work)

The issue again rises about slowing down the people with all of the =
custom objects, but then again, visibility is limited (right?) so you =
would only be loading objects within a radius and (if you set it) of a =
certain size in KB... that would be worth it.

5. Out of curiousity... At what point is active worlds going to =
actually advertise? Biggest complaint I get about AW is that people =
have no idea who or what they are... AW is great, indeed, but as it =
stands, their marketing sux. Word of mouth, while somewhat effective, =
shouldn't be depended on by a company with a listing on NASDAQ... I want =
to see a commercial during the superbowl for Active Worlds!

6. This one is probably a long shot but here goes: Hey AW! Since you =
enjoy the use of Animated JPGs, why not let some of us know where to get =
a program to make them? Animating a JPG file for AW manually is rather =
like jumping into a bathtub full of razorblades: I'd rather avoid it if =
I can... if there aren't any programs to automate the animated JPG =
process, then for the love of god, make one!

7. I don't expect AW to actually do this one, but it would be pretty =
darned kewl: be able to run a java applet in a picture frame in VR. =
Java picture effects would REALLY enhance VR :)

Well netizens, I must take leave again. Liquid Cool wants to show me =
something (probably a house or something *sighs*

Hope Roland or somebody actually reads this...

Darian Knight

Wow its actually you! I have some responses...

1. First order of business: AW 3.1 will have lighting, as in being able =
to create an object and say "you're a light, now brighten the room damn =
it!". This should be amazingly good for metatropolis (and even lower =
the crime rate).

I can't wait hehe :-)

2. Second: Ok, I looked into the reflectivity thing and got a general =
idea of why Roland keeps telling me "No Way, No How." As I see it, =
reflectivity (mirrors and such) depend on a closed world atmosphere with =
set boundries

OK, so I have my browser normally set to 120M visibility. If I placed a =
mirror down, the browser would have to track another 120M worth of =
objects, and its another 120M per mirror object. That can realy add up =
and slow you down! Even if you programmed it to where it wouldn't =
render any objects outside the visibility of another object (say you had =
the mirror in a room) it would still have to render them because what if =
it were, for example, one of the new transclucent window panes you can =
put pictures on? It would just be the backdrop behind that!

4. what about custom object paths that the builder can specify? so =
instead of using an object from the main path (pict3.rwx) they could =
specify this as the object name:
<snipped irrelevant information>
The issue again rises about slowing down the people with all of the =
custom objects, but then again, visibility is limited (right?) so you =
would only be loading objects within a radius and (if you set it) of a =
certain size in KB... that would be worth it.

You have to download the objects anyway -- it wouldn't be any slower. =
(OK, thats not exactly true. If someone were hosting objects on their =
56K connection then it would be a really slow download, however with a =
56K connection I would estimate your IP changes at least once a day (due =
to disconnects). No one would even try beyond once to host objects on =
their systems. Its not a big risk to add this feature :-)

5. Out of curiousity... At what point is active worlds going to =
actually advertise? Biggest complaint I get about AW is that people =
have no idea who or what they are... AW is great, indeed, but as it =
stands, their marketing sux. Word of mouth, while somewhat effective, =
shouldn't be depended on by a company with a listing on NASDAQ... I want =
to see a commercial during the superbowl for Active Worlds!

This is one of those annoying loops. You need money to advertise, and =
you need to advertise to make money. Maybe Venture Capital? ..... =
However, I COULD see this... "Who needs this superbowl stuff, anyway? =
If you love footwall so much why not get right in the action and play =
against people all over the world? You gotta make the FootballBot =
yourself but hey go for it!"

6. This one is probably a long shot but here goes: Hey AW! Since you =
enjoy the use of Animated JPGs, why not let some of us know where to get =
a program to make them? Animating a JPG file for AW manually is rather =
like jumping into a bathtub full of razorblades: I'd rather avoid it if =
I can... if there aren't any programs to automate the animated JPG =
process, then for the love of god, make one!

I would love to, but as you should very well know there is no time lol =
However I think this is a good idea -- any programmers want this nice =
job? People I am sure would take advantage of it!

7. I don't expect AW to actually do this one, but it would be pretty =
darned kewl: be able to run a java applet in a picture frame in VR. =
Java picture effects would REALLY enhance VR :)

That would be nice, however it would slow AW WAAAAAAAAY down. I love =
Java, don't get me wrong. In 1.3 the speed improvements amaze me. =
However, the Applet plugins still leave quite a bit to be desired...

Hope Roland ... actually reads this...

You wish lol ;-)

The mirror idea is rather easy to limit it and not lag at the same time. =
You could simply have a mirror command which you specify angles at which =
you want to reflect. Like say you had a wall it would be like this in =
aw.

name: pp01.rwx
descript: test mirror object
action: create mirror at 45 then x,y,z reflect

deciphered it would mean 45 is the angle or relative angle at which the =
object is being viewed then it would tell the browser to look for =
objects at x,y,z area and then reflect them. The entire reflection =
process would probably be pretty intense on most cpus but I don't know.

65.6.66.197 its cable its cool and uh free!
[View Quote] I can't wait hehe :-)

2. Second: Ok, I looked into the reflectivity thing and got a general =
idea of why Roland keeps telling me "No Way, No How." As I see it, =
reflectivity (mirrors and such) depend on a closed world atmosphere with =
set boundries

OK, so I have my browser normally set to 120M visibility. If I placed =
a mirror down, the browser would have to track another 120M worth of =
objects, and its another 120M per mirror object. That can realy add up =
and slow you down! Even if you programmed it to where it wouldn't =
render any objects outside the visibility of another object (say you had =
the mirror in a room) it would still have to render them because what if =
it were, for example, one of the new transclucent window panes you can =
put pictures on? It would just be the backdrop behind that!

4. what about custom object paths that the builder can specify? so =
instead of using an object from the main path (pict3.rwx) they could =
specify this as the object name:
<snipped irrelevant information>
The issue again rises about slowing down the people with all of the =
custom objects, but then again, visibility is limited (right?) so you =
would only be loading objects within a radius and (if you set it) of a =
certain size in KB... that would be worth it.
=20
You have to download the objects anyway -- it wouldn't be any slower. =
(OK, thats not exactly true. If someone were hosting objects on their =
56K connection then it would be a really slow download, however with a =
56K connection I would estimate your IP changes at least once a day (due =
to disconnects). No one would even try beyond once to host objects on =
their systems. Its not a big risk to add this feature :-)

5. Out of curiousity... At what point is active worlds going to =
actually advertise? Biggest complaint I get about AW is that people =
have no idea who or what they are... AW is great, indeed, but as it =
stands, their marketing sux. Word of mouth, while somewhat effective, =
shouldn't be depended on by a company with a listing on NASDAQ... I want =
to see a commercial during the superbowl for Active Worlds!

This is one of those annoying loops. You need money to advertise, and =
you need to advertise to make money. Maybe Venture Capital? ..... =
However, I COULD see this... "Who needs this superbowl stuff, anyway? =
If you love footwall so much why not get right in the action and play =
against people all over the world? You gotta make the FootballBot =
yourself but hey go for it!"

6. This one is probably a long shot but here goes: Hey AW! Since you =
enjoy the use of Animated JPGs, why not let some of us know where to get =
a program to make them? Animating a JPG file for AW manually is rather =
like jumping into a bathtub full of razorblades: I'd rather avoid it if =
I can... if there aren't any programs to automate the animated JPG =
process, then for the love of god, make one!

I would love to, but as you should very well know there is no time lol =
However I think this is a good idea -- any programmers want this nice =
job? People I am sure would take advantage of it!

7. I don't expect AW to actually do this one, but it would be pretty =
darned kewl: be able to run a java applet in a picture frame in VR. =
Java picture effects would REALLY enhance VR :)

That would be nice, however it would slow AW WAAAAAAAAY down. I love =
Java, don't get me wrong. In 1.3 the speed improvements amaze me. =
However, the Applet plugins still leave quite a bit to be desired...

Hope Roland ... actually reads this...

You wish lol ;-)

See, the problem is AW doesn't have portal rendering. Deus Ex (modified Unreal engine) has mirrors but they're usually in closed rooms (bathrooms, locker rooms, hallways, etc) and because of portal rendering (which hides most of the level when not directly in view--through windows, around buildings, etc), mirrors aren't much of a polygon drain. AW just mindlessly renders everything out to a certain distance and doesn't take into account actual line-of-sight visibility, which is why it gets bogged down VERY easily.

Would they have to rewrite a ton of code in AW, like the rendering and
visiblity system, to do this?

agent1

Dec 24, 2000, 10:52pm
More likely Renderware would have to be re-written to support it. Portal rendering works best in (at least) semi-closed spaces and not as well in an open area.

I think AW would need more of a commercially viable reason to rewrite their
core 3D handling code. Mirrors would fall into a "nice to have" category in
my view and "nice to have"s with a high development/implementation risk to
the product (i.e. large cost/small return) don't make a lot of sense.

Also, I think its time to stop comparing AW with all the 3D multiplayer
games on the market. The only substantial dynamic data these games have to
handle is the activities of the other "characters" in the environment.
Handling a situation where the environment itself is changing (as required
by AW to allow people to build, etc.) is a TOTALLY different matter. If AW
only provided fixed worlds to run around in and interact with then that
would be a fairer comparison. However, AW provides a more true-to-life
environment which can be manipulated in real-time by many users
simultaneously and it is this that sets it aside from the others. AW is not
a level-editor for a game engine and in no way can it be compared to one
because of (at least) one fundamental difference. Level-editors are
effectively compiler/optimisers for fixed environments and that is not what
AW is.

Maybe the infrastructure on which AW is based is reaching the end of its
shelf-life (personally, I think the changes from v2.2 to v3.0 fell well
short of qualifying as a major product release), and v4 should be a
strategic redirection, but right now, with the split between the
server-based and client-based processing being so client heavy, some things
are just not practical.

If mirrors were to be added to AW, then they should be true mirrors and not
a compromise of any form. If that means redeveloping large chunks of the
rendering code or even switching rendering engines, then you've just got to
accept that its not going to happen until AW can show in a business plan
that the costs involved would be recouped, with interest, over a fixed
period of time. Making such a change WITHOUT that business plan in place
would constitute negligent management.

AW are not going to prosper by blindly pandering to the requests of the
likes of us, most of whom pay an annual pittance to AW to dabble in their
environment. Even world owners (who pay) don't provide much of AW's
revenue - their focus is, quite rightly, elsewhere. Business makes the world
go around ... not hobbyists. Anyone who cannot accept the service AW provide
should vote with their feet and be done with it.

Level editors don't create static environments (levels). Most current 3D game levels are anything BUT static. Objects can be broken, walls blown up, floors crumbling, etc, etc. You've obviously never played a 3D game. Hell, even Duke Nukem 3D from FOUR years ago had VERY dynamic levels. Multiplayer games handle level changes JUST fine. AW is simply lagging behind 3D games in general.

By making AW more gamelike, not only does it expand what could be possible with AW, it gives AW MUCH more marketable features. To me the business plan is obvious, but Rick and JP are obviously clueless about where to take AW--even Ron Britvich agrees per an interview by Rob Moyes (see http://tnlc.com/eep/aw/history.html for link).

I see a lot of potential in AW, which is why I don't plan on leaving it ANY time soon, but I will continue to speak out against its bad management, marketing focus ("e-commerce et al), and slow development until AWCI shapes or ships out and REAL management/development takes over...or until something better comes along (which isn't too far off).

The main point I was making (perhaps poorly) was that the end result from a
level editor is a fixed environment ... basically a set of predefined rules
which equates ONLY to a fixed, completed world in AW (replace this wall with
this one when someone shoots it, crumble the floor when someone walks on
it). What it cannot handle, as AW can, is the scenario where one "player"
can be on the third floor of a castle when another "player" comes along and
replaces it with a rose garden. This is where I see the fundamental
difference to AW which is focussed as a real-time, muti-user, interactive
environment.

If it is used to create a world which is then baselined and published, then
yes, a comparison can be made, but I don't see how the central supports of
the AW "community" (basically AlphaWorld and other public building worlds)
could still be provided in that case.

I have to agree that there is a likelyhood of new, better alternatives
overtaking AW, but then that's how things work in the world. Its inevitable
that someone else WILL come along and steal (at least) some of AW's market
share. Its how AWCI respond to that intrusion that will decide their fate. I
doubt they are a big enough company right now to pre-empt it.

Final comment ... I know I've expressed this opinion before and I'll try to
make it the last time. What AWCI do and how they do it is their business. A
little more recognition of citizens as "customers" would be nice, but at the
end of the day, if they don't want to concentrate on placating existing
customers, then they don't have to. If they want to run the company into the
ground (which I am not saying they are doing by any means), then it is the
shareholders they answer to, not the customers (us).

When there's comparitive competition, then we'll see what happens.

Again, this is simply incorrect. AW can VERY easily allow such dynamic environments which include your so-called "fixed" environments of level editors.

Why can't you? AW already DOES support its "community" while at the same time allowing people to create worlds. <shrug>

I believe, if you read this point properly, I say that a COMPLETED AW world
EQUATES to a predefined gaming level - i.e. AW has a broader scope than that
of the level editor. If the environment is "fixed" such as in gaming levels
(quake, half-life, etc.), then the overall rules of that "level" are fixed
and only certain, supported activities have any interactive effect. Creating
a "level" for something like a game would be the same as building your world
off-line and uploading it like a web-page. With AW, you create the
environment whilst interacting with it ... big difference.

> Why can't you? AW already DOES support its "community" while at the same
time allowing people to create worlds. <shrug>

See above. AW doesn't just allow the creation of worlds. AW allows the
real-time maintenance of the worlds, whilst everyone is interacting with it
.... a bit like having someone trying to play a quake level while you were
still creating it. If you take this feature away, then you have a level
editor, BUT this is clearly one of the core concepts of AW and therefore,
public building wouldn't be possible.

> Under Delaware Corporation Law, which AWCI is incorporated under, the

"Answer to" does NOT mean power over the running of the company. By
definition, a shareholder has the power to plummet the company into
financial ruin and therefore AWCI has a basic responsibility to them. The
corporation law covering a company is irrelevant to the effect of the
shareholders actions.

And with more and more multiuser online-only games coming in 2001, AW's
so-called "market share" will be even more stressed.

To my mind, there is no other product around at the moment that even comes
close to what AW can offer. Multi-user, online games do not combine AW's
ability for dynamic content (and lets get this straight ... dynamic meaning
TOTALLY dynamic, not just a select few supported activities pre-coded into a
"level" definition such as the destruction of a specific wall or a bridge)
with the capability for mass usage and interaction. There is no comparison.

Not the same thing at all. Games where you can "level a mountain just by
shooting at it" have that opportinity predefined within the level. AW places
no such restrictions on the user, where they can build a mountain, delete
it, replace it with a park bench, stick a pole in the middle of the park
bench, build a house around the park bench and pole, delete the pole, etc.
etc. etc. ... ad infinitum.

As for games were you can build ... you can only build those things that are
supported within the game and interaction with these "objects" is also
restricted to what is supported within the game. AW provides an environment
where there are very few rules, and therefore handles any activity in a
generic manner. In the games you mention, the restrictions placed on the
player represent the "fixed" aspects. You can only do what the game supports
which falls well short of a user's capabilities in AW.

It is hardly surprising that these games perform so much better than AW due
to the assumptions and subsequent shortcuts that can be made within the
processing BECAUSE of these restrictions. With the generic nature of AW's
concept, everything must be handled in a "correct" manner ... and that takes
processing power. Here's an example (of the point - don't take it too
literally regarding AW). Imagine a ten-pin bowling alley. The rules are
strict here - if the ball hits the pins at a certain point, from a certain
direction, the fixed starting position of the pins can be relied upon and
the after-effects of the strike can be rapidly rendered BECAUSE of this
fact. Now imagine the same bowling alley in AW ... where the pins can be put
anywhere. Each object (e.g. the ball, the pins, etc.) must be handled
discretely and all the impacts individually calculated and rendered before
moving on to the next point in time (e.g. frame) because there are no
assumptions that can be made. There is a massive overhead in handling
real-world, flexible environments where rules are few and far between
compared to those where the bounds of interaction are so limited.

[View Quote] Well, everything has to be predefined in some way, otherwise it can't
happen. By the way, I wasn't speaking about a specific mountain, I was
speaking about the terrain in general. It morphs when you shoot at it, or
make big explosions. So if the terrain happens to be a mountain somewhere,
you could keep shooting at it until it was a big hole. What you do therefore
has an impact on the terrain as a whole.

It doesn't? Well you seem to overlook a few things... first of all, if the
object isn't available, it can't be built in AW. There is a set of
predefined objects you are working with. You can insert an object, place it
somewhere and rotate it a bit (but only around it's up-down axis).

This works the same in such a game: there are objects, which are at specific
places, etc etc. The objects that are available are limited by the people
who made the game, just as the objects available in a world are limited by
the owner. Do you really think everything in a game is hard-coded into the
executable? That would be very silly. The kind of games that look like AW
usually just are a reality-simulator. The levels, monsters, players, etc are
all completely modular.

> As for games were you can build ... you can only build those things that

> supported within the game

In AW you can only build the things provided by the world's owner. If you
own a world yourself, you can put in anything you want.

In those games, you can only build the things provided by the creators of
the game. It is possible to add things, if not by the players, then by the
creators themselves. (read: add-on packs with extra levels, monsters,
pickups, bonusses, etc)

See the similarities?

> and interaction with these "objects" is also
> restricted to what is supported within the game.

Of course it is. But this is the same in AW. You can only interact with
stuff in predefined ways. You can come up with new, creative ways to use
those interactions, for example a bot that reacts on an avatar gesture. But
you don't really create any new way to interact. Interaction in AW is
limited to moving (moving to a certain area, or bumping into things),
talking, using gestures and clicking on things. Nothing more. This is how AW
restricts what you can do. You can use some of these things by standard
(clicking, bumping, coming near an object), and write little scripts for
them. But scripts are nothing special, it's a fairly common way to make
things happen. For example, the Creatures series of games is completely
driven by a scripting language. Creatures happens to be 2D, but it would be
nothing different if it were 3D. Also, you can write bots, but that's
similar to writing a plug in for a game. For example, someone has made an
excellent plugin for Quake, Reaperbots. This plugin controls a bunch of AI
players, and you can use it to brush up your deathmatch skills. (I can
recommend it to anyone who likes quake multiplayer)

> AW provides an environment

Just the same for games. Most 3D games provide an environment for the games
to live in, the game itself is created by the levels and the objects. Even
Wolfenstein 3D could run customizable levels!

In AW you can only do what AW supports, which isn't really all that much.

You seem to be working with *very* old knowledge, or you grossly
overestimate AW's capabilities.

In a game, stuff must be handled in a correct manner too. Take Carmageddon
II. There's a world, with various objects, and there are cars, which are
objects too. Now crash your car into a streetlight at 300km/h. As for the
game, this is just a matter of two objects hitting each other. Therefore, it
has to model the crash to see what happens. The streetlight might break off
and fly away, the car will deform, start to spin and maybe loose a few
parts. Nothing is constant, compared with other crashes - the size and shape
of the car, the size and shape of the streetlight, the overall world gravity
(lunar gravity bonus, anyone), the thickness of the free space around you
(you could be underwater), the speed and weight of the car, the speed and
weight of the streetlight (could already be moving), etc etc etc.

There are assumptions, of course. First of all, real world physics - gravity
for example. And the objects have been preprogrammed to tell the game that
they can break or deform at certain places. But *what* happens, and when and
how, has to be done in the game itself.

Now, for AW, the only physics it has to deal with are the movements of your
avatar. You'll fall down, unless you are flying, and you won't walk through
solid objects, unless you use shift. And if you are flying you'll keep on
going for a while after you stopped pressing the keys.

Nice example, but it doesn't apply here at all. The physics of the bowling
alley aren't dealt with by the world server, nor by the AW client (unless
you try to walk through it). AW has no native support for moving objects
that influence other objects, and doesn't do any real world physics on them
either. What really happens is this: there's a bot (plug-in) that provides
the game. The bot only knows about balls and pins. The bot notices that you
try to throw a ball, and then handles the moving and the impact. This is
exactly the same as in a standalone bowling game, and everything happens on
the computer the bot runs on. The only thing your client gets through is
where the pins and the ball move, which is the same as when someone's avatar
moves, or when someone moves an object while building.

There simply *is* no real-world, flexible environment with few rules. AW has
very strict rules, even. You seem to think of AW as something much more
sophisticated than it is.

Jan 5, 2001, 12:28pm
OK, I take your points, but I look on the two scenarios as different -
especially the "mission packs" point since this, to me, demonstrates my
point. "Mission packs" are basically additional pre-defined scenarios that
the game can run. They don't relate to going in to other worlds in AW, since
the same abilities are available in other worlds as in the original. You can
change them dynamically from from any location. I know exactly what I mean,
but I seem to be having a problem articulating it ... sorry. I still see
vast differences between the scope of AW and those of an environment
tailored to specific environments (such as games with massive level
definitions).

In terms of my views on AW ... the concepts behind AW are so much more
generic than anything else we have been discussing here. Sophistication
isn't the point, its the capabilities that the product allows over the
alternatives that set AW aside. The "rules" that AW applies to its worlds
are far less restrictive than those in games. The two sets of rules are
focussed on different subjects. As I was saying to Eep, in my view, the 3D
game environment that people compare AW to equates to a completed and
published world. With the lack of an ability to state/script specific
actions within an object definition for AW to the extent that is afforded to
games programmers who are writing a specific game, AW falls behind in
functionality and interaction whilst still having to follow the same
processing. BUT is not the key point I have been trying to make ... which
was that level editors create predefined environments (and new/updated
environments which manifest themselves as your "mission packs") for a game.
These environments are interacted with by the game itself ... but NOT while
the level is being built. That is the focus of the game concept ... there's
always a theme and a set of rules which relate to that theme, whereas AW is
an attempt at a kind of "global interaction". I basically see no comparison
because there is no theme defined for AW at all - no related
rules/assumption. What games don't have to worry about is someone coming
along and unexpectedly MOVING the walls of the U-Boat you're navigating. If
they move because someone has pressed a button, then there is specific code
to make the walls move in which is then executed within each of the
instances of the game to which it is relevant. AW allows much, much, much
lower-level activities than that. AW is aimed at mimicing the core
activities within a "virtual world", not the instigation of predefined
action.

The bowling example was meant as an example for the point, not AW. AW's
infrastructure doesn't allow such scenarios to be created efficiently ...
(even bots wouldn't be able to perform that kind of task and keep the effect
realistic to all client's). The Carmageddon II reference you made forced me
to think a bit more (thanks for that!!), but I still came up with the same
basic thoughts. The car is an object and it therefore a set a rules that
define how it interacts with things such as how it deforms when hit
(although I would imagine that the basic shape of the car isn't actually
effected in terms of the object itself rather than just how it looks) and
the rest is just a change of velocity that is then handled by the game. AW
doesn't deal with specifics - all activity is handled in a generic way but
you can't describe an object to the extent that a real-world needs. AW is
the very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, poor cousin of the
"Thirteenth Floor" environment - modelling a world and not a scenario.

Thinking about it though ... is the AW performance really that bad? v3.0
flies on my machine (PIII 500, 128MB, Voodoo 3 3000). The restriction is
this pathetic dialup I have here. Bet there wouldn't be half the compaints
about it if they had a "full screen" mode rather than windowed.

Interesting discussion, but I think we're going to have to agree to
disagree. Shame no-one else wants to join in.

If you knew about games like 10six, you would know that editing a level (or "camp" as it's called in 10six) is QUITE possible while you're being attacked. While 10six doesn't have extensive editing capabilities like AW and TRUE level editors, it's a minor preview of what's coming up from games like Neverwinter Nights and already present in Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption where the level can have elements added and deleted in real-time while other people are playing it.

So get your head out of the sand and learn about these things BEFORE responding to this post and making yourself look even more clueless about the gaming industry.

There is relative comparison and if you actually had a clue about the other games out there and upcoming ones I've mentioned you'd realize this. AW is pale in comparison to what most level editors can do, so AW's worlds aren't TOTALLY dynamic either.

Good god you're fucking dense, grimble. First of all, AW doesn't even ALLOW shooting, jumping, or most other game environment interactions, so for you to say that AW places no restrictions on the user just shows you're even MORE clueless about AW and 3D games than I thought.

AW public building worlds don't allow building with ANYTHING, as you imply, but impose restrictions on unconvered land, the ground zero building limit radius, whether or not the world has an object registry, eminent domain rights, etc, etc.

You forget that AW has hardly any physics, and most 3D games don't have that detailed enough physics, but I'm sure if a 3D bowling game had an "alley/lane editor", the pins could be knocked down from whatever angle the designer wanted.

Stop acting so cluelessly inept and LEARN about things before attempting to communicate about them, eh? God damn.

[View Quote] Well, actually every world in AW is about the same. A world is just a
collection of objects. What objects, and how they are placed, is different
in each world, but if you look at it in an abstract way, it's all more of
the same. There are no special or extra abilities in any of the worlds.

> You can
> change them dynamically from from any location.

And with that, you change the definition of the world a little. You can't
change the levels in most 3D games while you are playing, *not* because it's
hard to do, or impossible, or would mess with something 'precompiled', but
because *it would ruin gameplay*. Imagine running through a maze, and
instead of solving it, you delete walls until you get to the exit. That's
why.

AW *is* tailored to a specific goal, namely a 3D chat program. AW itself
does nothing special outside of that scope, all games and other things come
from 3d party bots, which are specifically suited for a particular game.

It's quite possible to make a fully functional bowling alley in Quake. Duke
Nukem 3D has a billiard table somewhere in one of the first levels. By
modifying the data files of Carmageddon you can play as a pedestrian instead
of as a car. You can always use things in other ways than intended, nothing
special about that. It's even more fun.

That's a false assumption. A level is just a data file telling the game how
that level is built. Nothing, except a decision of the creators of the game,
prevents you from adding things. Your whole point, and excuse for why AW is
behind 3D gaming, seems to be that you can add/delete/move objects when in a
world? If so, this is silly at best.

Why do you think AW doesn't have a better scripting language? Not because it
is needed for generality. It's mainly a lack of time.

If that's your key point, your whole argument falls, because it is false.
You assume that all game levels, once completed by the editor, are somehow
magically optimized and after that are completely static. But then what? If
the game allows you to, you can change the level while playing it. That's
just a matter of adding/deleting/changing things, it's just not desirable
for gameplay.

AW has a theme - 3D chat. It has rules - there is a world, in which you are
represented by an avatar. This world is composed of a bunch of objects. You
can move your avatar through that world, and might occasionally bump
something. And AW assumes it has to take care of nothing, except for making
sure your avatar doesn't move through solid objects, except for when you
want to.

Suddenly moving walls doesn't matter at all - see below.

Yes. And now for AW?

There you go wrong. AW doesn't handle any activity in a general way. It
doesn't simulate a real world. In the eyes of the program, the world is just
a static bunch of objects. Every now and then, the client gets messages like
this: "That walk01.rwx over there is now moved to this position" or "This
avatar moved to that position". And if you try to move, it goes like this:
"hm, the user tries to walk forwards. Let's see, is there some solid object
at the new position? If not, move, if so, don't move.". That's all AW does -
it doesn't care for any physics, except for some general things to make your
avatar move. It doesn't care about the physics of the other avatars in the
world. There is *no* object interaction, for example a ball hitting a stick.
If you are looking at a bowling game, there is nothing simulated or whatever
by AW. Everything about the game is handled by a bot. The AW client just
gets a bunch of messages about objects that get other locations. And when
there is no bowling bot, there can be no bowling, because AW doesn't support
such things.

Considering what it does, it isn't really nice at all. It could probably be
much better.

Agreeing to disagree is ok, but only as a last resort, or on things clearly
subjective (blue is a nice colour).

Level editors do, which is basically what AW is.

Well the point wasn't made because the example doesn't apply. <shrug> Back to Argument 101 with you!

[View Quote] [View Quote] Ah but some games allow for exactly this. While a true deformable level hasn't been made (to my knowledge), some games have deformable elements like blowing up things (buildings, smaller objects, parts of walls, etc), deformable terrain (should see more of it this year), etc. Why do you think saved games are getting bigger? ~1-10MB is common, depending on level file size, of course, but that should show you that not only is your character's position being saved, but positions and states of just about everything else in the level: enemies, animals, movable objects, broken objects, etc, etc. 3D games are getting more and more interactive all the time and that is where I see AW heading if only Rick, JP, and Roland can pull their heads out of their wanna-be "e-commerce" asses and get the picture before a REAL game developer simply does it themself, which is already happening.

AW isn't as much about chat as it is about creating. I've said it before and I'll say it again: AW is a multiuser level editor--period. But it still needs a lot of improvement before it can be a viable alternative to current 3D game level editors.

....which can be a game in and of itself! Just look at all the puzzle games that involve moving objects...

....and vision. Rob Britvich seems to've taken AW's vision with him because Rick, JP, and Roland sure as fuck don't have one for AW--and, no, "e-commerce" is not a vision but simply an overhyped bandwagon catch-phrase that's dying along with the much overhyped .com mania of the past year.

So Eep, what your saying is you want AW to be more GAMELIKE? Not a game
right?

I agree, adding gamelike features would add to the reality of the software.
For instance, if you in a world where you cant fly, and mabey your in a big
puzzle or maze, you could jump over obstacles, or shoot down secret walls.

Some of the features of AW 3.1 might help improve the visitors experience:
ex. the new 'light' command, an object will be able to cast light and will
probably look very cool in a world with dark lighting... Which means
lampposts may be able to light roads, or path at night while your walking
down them...

Also, a new shooting feature would be nice, especially for games like AWCtf,
or paintball, as it would take the job off of the bot (which cant do its job
that well anyways),

I also agree with Eep, that if AW doesn't even try to 'tag-along' with these
other 3d games that are appearing, where you can chat and play at the same
time (multiplayer games.) It just might be awhile before AWCOM realizes
this...

If you tried some of these other games (like Starsiege Tribes, for ex.,) you
would see that some of them have 'communities' also. They may not be as
organized as the AW Community, but there are different clans you can join,
and play along side each other. There are different ladders you can play
on, and face other clans on a closed server. There are people who make
different MODs for the game (which alters the game in every way possible,
except on the client side.) You can also make different levels/maps. You can
generate your own terrain and modify it, place bases, MAKE AI BOTS (Which
happen to be built into the Starsiege Tribes client). You can even make
objects for some of these games through 3d graphics designers, like 3d MAX,
so as far as level/editing or building, whichever you may prefer, they are
similar up to the way they are done. Then you can send them all over the
'game's community' and have your level/map played on all of the major
servers.

I agree, there some good points about AW, number one being its community,
and all the organizations within. But, there are some other programs that
has all AW has PLUS some.

I don't think Ron 'Protagonist' Britvitch really expected AW to become a
game, or a tool for e-commerce at that. I think he just meant for it to be
an interactive chat program. But if we want Protagonist's creation to live
on we have to do something.

LilAlpha Phalpha :)
PS: If you people haven't realized it but Eep is also concerned about the
future of AW too... He isn't trying to destroy it by turning it into a game,
he is trying to save it. We each have our own ways of doing things, his
just happen to be unique. So don't flame Eep when he gets started about
this, support him, or else you might get flamed back, and trust me, it isn't
pretty.

Alright...

Yup it's me again... stepping in to solve an argument.

This is how it works - a reflectivity code native to the browser and
renderware environment would probably use Direct X 7.0 and OpenGL code... It
would also require that the world in which it is used has a defined border
to calculate what it is reflecting based on it's position.

So.. what does this mean for AW in codeing?

Roughly, it means that the worlds in the AW Universe need defined borders
for the ends of the worlds as well as AW doing a bit of studying into OpenGL
and Direct X coding.

While they're at it, AW could even make the ends of the worlds, (defined)
render the connecting land from the opposite side of the map so that the
worlds are really spherical... maybe.

The idea is that AW needs to actually sit down and get creative...
Reflectivity (mirrors) are a business addition because it makes things more
realistic (which is the point isn't it?) from a subtle reflection in a
window or water to a full length mirror... it's the small things that trick
the user into thinking it's realistic.

The more realistically a product is shown in 3D the more a user will think
it's serious and not just a "chat environment". Believe it or not AW as a
program is much more powerful than people know... it just takes the right
talent to bring out the best in it :)
