Is it possible to add a zoom thing for freelook mode and the first
person view. Using the mouse wheel for this wouldn't be a bad idea (zooming
in and out at different levels). Also I forgot whether or not this has been
suggested before but a way to allow someone to see what you are seeing in
your 3D Window (including object boxes and such).

Thanks,

Hmmm, I like the idea with others being able to see your 3D Window (if you give them permission). Would actually help in teaching people how to build.

Right now, the closest you can get is to have the person join you, and then join themself. (I know that word isn't considered proper English, but since English doesn't have an acceptable proper word, it'll do.)

You may also want to check my wishlist post entitled "2nd person mode" on Thursday, November 28, where I suggest an addition to the context menu that comes up when you right click on another person's avatar.

About the idea of a 1st person view zoom option, I would like that very much... and also, a wide angle lense option, to see straight up, straight down, straight to the left, straight to the right, and straight ahead, all at the same time.

Not always the best way, but works for spying, paintball snippering etc.

Start > Programs > Accessories > Accessability > Magnifier

Don't you have to have the Accessibility features installed for that to
work?

300 kilobytes doesn't seem like much compared to today's terabyte and
massive gigabyte harddrives...

Open Add/Remove Programs properties in Control Panel.
Click the Windows Setup tab, That you can install or remove programs like
that.
