Xivio is Back!

I’m hosting a new Xivio server at

xivioworld.com

Come and play! All accounts are deleted so you’ll have to re-register.

New IP Ban Message

I finally coded IP ban, here’s what it looks like when you’re IP banned forever without a reason.

 

Exporting 3D objects is hard…

I’m writing a converter so that anyone can use Anim8or to convert 3d meshes into xivio objects. Lemme tell ya, it’s complicated.

I’ve mostly got it, but not quite. Here’s what it’ll do so far, note I’ve just set the colors random, I’m not exporting them quite yet.

The model surrounded in blue is the model I converted to Xivio. As you can see there's a few bugs in the Xivio model.

It’s not converting some triangles correctly it seems. And the body of the avi is upside-down for some reason. I have the exporter set all the colors random so you can see all the quads and triangles.

Xivio Server coming up!

I’m going to run my own Xivio. It’ll be just like the old xivio, but starting over.

2011 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 55,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 20 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

Status Update

That’s what I’ve got so far. A spinning cube and a loader. OH and, IT SCALES!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This means no matter how big or small your screen is, it’ll resize to fill the entire browser window, a feature that I wanted Xivio to have but because of it’s initial design wasn’t possible.

The rendering style is almost done, one more aspect needed, a black outline.

A long way to go, but a good milestone.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can begin!

I can begin development on my new game, Adobe has release Flash Player 11, allowing amazing 3D effects. It may be a while, I’ll start a blog on the development, stay tuned!

Original post:

Xivio will never go up again.

Xivio was fun, I hope y’all had fun too. We had great memories.

The reason?

The domain was stolen by tommy, and Paradox just doesn’t want the hassle.

I ran a temp server for a few days but Paradox had me shut it off. It was wrong of me to run that temp server without his permission. I didn’t think Gavin would mind.

Anyways, since Xivio is down, I’m making my own virtual world, no clue when it’ll be up, may not even come up. I’ve started a new blog for it!

MoGoMu Game Blog

I’ll keep this blog as a archive.

I’ll never forget Xivio. I hope Xivio made as large an impression on you as it did me. I learned a lot. Xivio was a virtual world like no other, and there will probably never be another like it. Xivio was extremely unique, Paradox did a great job.

Goodbye, Xivio
