worlds. We aim to provide a set of libraries and protocols which can
be used to deploy a virtual world, as well as fully featured sample
implementations of services for hosting and deploying these worlds.

kataspace's Issues

Makefile not generating all pbj.js files properly.

Something is wrong with the handling of the pbj files in the Makefile -- one of them isn't being generated properly.

Chrome Beta link gives 404

Annoyingly this link gives a 404 error when you hit it from Denmark.

Avatar names no longer show up above heads

Something happened during the GLGE shadow-enabled upgrade. Code path does not use the new shadows yet, but now text no longer appears above avatar heads.

It would have stopped the merge, but I only noticed the lack of text now. Not quite sure how to proceed there.

Can't see any animated characters

Hi,

I'm using Chrome 9.0.587 dev on Windows with latest nvidia drivers and can't see characters. I can move around in the surroundings but I could not see my nor Henriks Character. I've grabbed a Screenshot:

I'm not a web developer, so you'll have to point me in the right direction to look for error reports or something :)

Tab notify

I have kept KataSpace open in a tab for a good while now. It would be very helpful if I could get a visual notification when someone says something in the chat. Like Gmail's chat for instance does.

I see way more (Entered) than (Left)

ec2-run.sh doesn't catch errors with starting god

If the configuration is incorrect or god doesn't install properly then ec2-run.sh fails to catch and report the error.

Reasonable starting position should be sent on connection request rather than updated after initial connection

Currently people can start half way in the ground because they start at the origin on connection and then set their location. Instead, we should set a reasonable position in the connection request.

Make names above avatars always face the user

Make names above avatars always face the user. Currently they are hard to read sideways or backwards.

High keyboard repeat causes lag

if you move and your keyboard repeat is set to 255 per second, it really lags the client.
this is remedied by disabling keyboard repeat before playing, but that's a rather painful task--so we should have better repeat detection

ec2-build.sh isn't catching errors

If one of the build steps fails, the ec2 build script needs to catch it.

License?

Under what license is it available? I mean which opensource license for the code?

Throttle the app when its tab in not active

We know that the application is ressource intensive. But it would be great if something could be done to decrease the amount of ressources it takes up when its tab is not active.

Ken Russell talked about building this into Chrome at WebGL camp and it may be something that needs doing at the abstraction level of the browser.

Avatars pop in and out quickly when proximity results are updated

We should have at least a little bit of latency between when we receive a message to invalidate a presence and when we actually do it so that quick removal/addition sequences don't interrupt the user or propagate up to the script. This may be a KataJS issue, or might be a Kataspace one.

Can't see avatars or labels

On Ubuntu 10.10, running Firefox 4.0 b7 (tarball from Mozilla), when I log into the site, I can see the landscape, but no avatars. Speaking with Henrik inworld, he suggested I file a bug here. Screenshot available upon request.

Failed to connect

I tried to explore kataspace, but after trying to login i got the following error message:
Couldn't connect: Couldn't connect to space server.

Did i Miss something somewhere?

told I need webgl

chrome 8.0.552.215 Windows 7, works fine with Ourbricks; rejected by kataspace

Add info/bug link with configuration option

The page should always display a link for information and/or bug reporting. This should be configurable from deployment.js.

Failed tp connect to Kataspace

trying to login to sandbox.ourbricks.com. get "failed to connect to space server" error

Gray screen on mac OS X 10.5.7

Using firefox beta 4.0b7 on mac OS 10.5.7 i can log in and then only see the chat zone and the "report an issue button". Also i can see the title "Kataspace" and the "sit/help" buttons. That's all i can see. The rest is gray.

No landscape nor avatar. Screenshot on demand.

Best regards from France.

Rotation no longer accepted by space with top of tree sirikata

I was just testing top of tree kataspace with top of tree sirikata (7fbd3c25a40ccdc010f2723321167bea4826694f) and when you hit create, make a clone of your avatar then rotate it, the rotation is denied by the server and the object spins back to its original location. Translations and scales seem to stick.

the same kataspace code rotates properly with the older sirikata revision

It could well be something to do with a protocol shift, but we should update kataspace to be friendly with sirikata at some point since the old version of sirikata space server had a few outstanding issues that have been fixed in top of tree

when an object joins, loads slowly and user does not move, they are not placed properly

To reproduce quickly, checkout objectcreation branch and connect to sirikata server
move forward at a steady rate
and start clicking the create button as you do so

avatars should start trailing behind you...but about 50% of the time, the first avatar is submerged underground. The avatar simply sends a single position update when it joins, so it's possible that update is lost.

Other people who join the world later will see the avatar in the correct location.

Avatar names only appear from the back

I think we have the wrong face culling for text labels: it should be backface not frontface...right now you can only read the users name backwards from the back...

should be a simple fix to GLGE or else to katajs's use of the text canvas

I can run through hills ...

... inside the demo. Plz implement collission detection and make the avatar follow the terrain. ;o)

Login Screen OK, but no chat/world

Currently running on Ubuntu 10.04.

Ran build script, configured using the default options, then the run script. No errors reported at any point other than typical compiler warnings about deprecated headers, etc.

When accessing the server, I receive a login screen that asks for a name, and gives the option to select an avatar. The "Report an Issue" button is also available.

After entering a name, selecting an avatar and clicking login; nothing more happens. I've tested this in both Firefox and Chrome (versions available if needed, but both worked with the reference version of kataspace at http://kataspace.sirikata.com/).
