I'm seeing it too... I also noticed it with a couple of the new
chairs... looks like this set was more screwed up than we thought :P Be sure to let Gand know! [View Quote] > Oh the joys of truespace objects :).

I see it, dunno bout those gray splotches but I do know there is a hole in
it for me. I'm using an ATI Radeon (the old one) running 4.13.01.7197 drivers (Hmm....yep I think those are the leaked ones I got off of madonion.com...though I put .7075s back on, stupid dxdiag...) And I run AW on OpenGL mode [View Quote] smeJan 14, 2002, 7:40pm
An interesting note on this topic:
After I [briefly] viewed the wallh6.rwx file in Notepad I gave it a whirl in RWModeler, where it appeared to be perfectly rendered with neither the gray overlapping nor the two-sided triangle that interrupts the frame of the door. Implementation error? "T-minus 0200 hours till production build! Set warp factor to "crufty!" --- M.E. Wahl "I find the computer becomes me trouble-shooter. My wish is his command! Nothing is astute-r Than a computer When I need...a helping hand!" -"Future World" exhibit at Walt Disney World ananasJan 15, 2002, 4:45am
Some textures seem to miss too, e.g. :
flat997 on flat9 flat87 on flat8 flat77 on flat7 all masks in a sky box (sha_slfm4.zip and so) .... [View Quote] -- "_ | /\ \ / __/ /_ smeJan 15, 2002, 11:24am
Oops...sorry SW, I got that Stallman book on Jargon for Christmas :)
"Crufty" is an adjective meaning temporarily workable but very poorly constructed, like a gingerbread house made with pancakes for want of graham crackers. Right after I hypothesized that the problem with wallh9.rwx was an implementation error of Activeworlds, not a problem with the actual file, I made this joke about what was, possibly, happening at AW Inc right before the release of 3.2: My jokes suck :P -- Sme sweJan 15, 2002, 6:23pm
Hmm,nothing wrong with it on my computer,looks perfectly normal(except for
the fact that the UVing is too big for it). Well i guess its cuz my PC got used to all the obejcts ive been making :) im also running AW 3.2 build something but with a ATI RAGE 128, or something like that lol The All New SWE(now 346564...well i think so anyway) [View Quote] foxmccloudJan 16, 2002, 2:39am

Note : careful with the link to the Jargon file, I can spend hours jumping from link to link on that file ;) And I might add that
those that still think a hacker is a "bad guy" that breaks computers and steals files (like the mass media tend to believe) should do their homework here :) http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html Quote : "There is another group of people who loudly call themselves hackers, but aren't. These are people (mainly adolescent males) who get a kick out of breaking into computers and phreaking the phone system. Real hackers call these people `crackers' and want nothing to do with them. Real hackers mostly think crackers are lazy, irresponsible, and not very bright, and object that being able to break security doesn't make you a hacker any more than being able to hotwire cars makes you an automotive engineer. Unfortunately, many journalists and writers have been fooled into using the word `hacker' to describe crackers; this irritates real hackers no end. The basic difference is this: hackers build things, crackers break them."
