Things we are working on.

Hey everyone I thought I'd just keep everyone updated on some of the things we are working on.

This week our priority is the art gallery event which is happening on Friday the 23rd.

We added a few things to granville island such as: a business named Crafthouse, and a skatepark. I hope you all enjoy the skatepark when it is pushed to production.

Haunted house with a maze. We are preparing for Halloween so we have made some props and this fun maze.

We are also planning on changing Virtual Vancouver street. We are putting in Fog and a night time sky for next week.

Stay Tuned for more Updates and pictures.

VWW Regions and New Zabys

We regret to inform you, that all new VWW regions will now have blocking volumes, or ‘boundaries’, to stop users from spawning outside of their purchased space.

Some have exploited these maps by placing “Moving to Location” outside of the space paid for. This can cause problems with props, scaling, and collision.

These maps are built using BSP’s (Binary Space Partitioning) and all the editing is supposed to be done within that BSP space. So when problems occur with businesses and users regarding the “outside space” of their purchased property, there is really nothing we can do, other than block off the entire map to stop these problems from occurring, as it is not officially governed or supported space.

We realize that many of you have put hard work into your regions. Many of us here have done the same. However, placing in boundaries is something that absolutely needed to be done. Exploiting the maps in this way disrupts business as well as causes technical issues.

If you have edited your start point outside this “blocking volume/boundary”, you will need to port to this region, open the start point manager from there, and delete the modified start point, restoring it to default, and therefore allowing you to set a new start point within your new boundary.

For you Zaby owners who have built outside the boundary, don’t worry, any current Zaby owners will be ‘grandfathered’ and will not have their work removed if it falls outside the boundary. However, any new Zaby purchases from this point on will be subject to the boundaries.

This is unfortunately the only course we can take, as the sole, alternate solution to these exploitations would be to get rid of the “Move to Location” script, and we know that is not a very workable option.

Thanks everyone.
