ALIVE Members and Friends! Hot off the keyboards we have a new version of the ALIVE editor. The editor is available now for download from the ALIVE
Website:
The new features of the editor include:
* New Graphical User Interface
* Particle Systems
* New Models, Landscapes and Terrain
* Walk Around Mode in which you can turn on an avatar and walk around
your scene in third person 3D
* Uniform scaling of objects and snap to grid mode
* Copy and Paste of objects already in the scene
* F10 Screenshot will send a shot of your 3D world directly to the
front page of the ALIVE website!
Please post comments, suggestions and troubleshooting issue to the forums and the team will respond at their earliest convenience. Watch for the NEW ALIVE Player coming soon. This will allow you to upload your ALVIE world onto our website and multi-user share it with your friends and colleagues so you can chat LIVE! Your use and testing of the ALIVE editor significantly helps us debug and improve the product for future releases. Enjoy!
P.S. We have run tests using the ALIVE editor on an iMac under Parallels. If you would like to try it on an iMac, please ensure your Parallels settings have DirectX enabled and an increase in the memory
allocated to graphics.
