Looks neat. Can't wait to see what SA and 4chan do with it.

Whee, I'm in. I would've liked more warning that my avatar name and account name would be the same, though.
It's late here, but I'll have to tinker with it tomorrow.

ALT-Tab or click in your Start bar if that happens and it should unfreeze... we don't quite know why it happens, it is very very erratic for us. :(

I'm assuming it can't be made to work under linux/firefox. It certainly doesn't seem to work out of the box.
It's not an issue for me if games don't support linux. I'm not that fanatical and I'll reboot into vista if I need some gaming. However a social networking site is presumably meant to sit open in the background a lot of the time?

Well Zwol certainly seems on the ball. If it can be made to work around adobe's apathy I'm sure he'll be the one to find it.

I have been working with a friend to use metaplace as another way to promote his artwork. The intent is to embed it on his site and other outlets. You can see it here. |

Also, Sky was taken. So Raph clearly needs to ban someone  |

The linking to another account feature is cool (I used google). Especially since I forgot what I signed up with originally.

So I was messing about with the tutorial on how to build your own world, and the very second step, right after 'create your own tile', doesn't seem to be active. The Shape Your World > Terrain Tools is greyed out.
|
I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

You create tiles with 'paint the ground'. Terrain tools will be greyed out unless the map type is sloped or stepped from 'advanced -> camera and map'. |

Well, they may wanna give the option to either skip that part of the tutorial (can't skip ahead atm) or create the default terrain sloped so that part of the tutorial is relevant.

The default terrain IS sloped. Did you come in during one of the earlier invite waves by any chance?

Yes, quite possibly. I hadn't gotten around to playing it till today, however. |

Go to Advanced-> Camera and Map in the tools, and pick either sloped or stepped. Stepped is better for interiors.

Nope. I would also love it if they removed the normal you tube listing after the videos are over. But, i do not think the widget uses anything other than a window, and the standard you tube player FROM you tube. |

I didn't see the VCR controls. Normally under a crappy connection I just pause it until the bar fills, then play it. I could not see how to do that in this case.

There is a bug in the survey - if you leave the single text box on the 2nd page blank (there is no * IIRC), then answer all the final page, it will go back to that box - AND WIPE OUT EVERYTHING YOU ENTERED ON THE FINAL PAGE. So when it did that, I just closed IE.

Oh yeah, my favorite world was the ship shooting one HighSeas I think. Still can't figure out how to pick up survivors though. Tried rowing to them, anchoring, not anchoring. Most times my boat is sitting right on them when the fish get them.

I asked QA to look at this, and they tried it in IE, Firefox, and Chrome, and could not reproduce it... |
