Fixes & Changes

While our server tries its best to remain faithful to the original, there are a number of improvements and changes done to several aspects of our server.

• A cleaner and more streamlined web interface
• Better user information fields
• Shared State works
• Improved and organized universe map
• Permanent VIP
• Custom and fixed worlds
• User-created avatars and textures
• Working avatar LoDs (with DisableLOD=0)

All original assets and worlds should work as intended.

Shared State

If you're a worldsbuilder, you'll be excited to know that our server supports Shared State, which allows forwarding the state of an object to other users in the room. A good example can be seen in the TamaWorld Soccerfield:

http://3dcd.com/users/jimbly/worlds/tama/tama.world

This can most commonly be done by setting the "Sharing Mode" property in an object to 3, although other options can be supported. Be sure to choose a unique world and room name for your shared objects, and make several saves. While Shared State is functional, it can be often buggy and broken when building worlds with it.

If you are on versions 1890-1904, you will need to apply this patch mod. If you've never applied a mod before, you can follow these instructions.

User-made Content

We allow custom avatars and textures made and created by users on our upgrade server. Creators can simply email us with their assets and if accepted, they will be added. Not everything will be accepted, as we have a quality standard to avoid cluttering our server and clients with junk.

• Avatar models must be in a BOD format and properly "rigged".
• Textures must be in a CMP or MOV.
• Cannot be phallic or inappropriate.
• Models must keep a reasonable poly count. Textures should be 128x128 or 256x256.
• Cannot be ripped from other media. You must own the content or have permission to use it.
• Must not be low effort, too simple, or useless.

We will try to keep asset names short and unique to prevent conflicts. If your creations get accepted, we will reply with the resulting names for each asset. It may take time for creations to get accepted, as we will usually try and handle them in bulk to prevent too frequent updates.
