3. Pause antivirus or desktop / personal firewall if you are using them
4. If you are using macOS, upgrade to the latest version (minimum Catalina 10.15.7, ideally Big Sur 11.0.1)

DO I NEED A CAMERA AND MIC?

Yes. We offer “chat-zones”, in which you can meet other participants and make contact. The same as you do at the offline venue, while having refreshment or standing in the queue. In order to network in the chat zones, you need to enable your camera and microphone.

DO YOU HAVE ANY TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MY COMPUTER?

3D world is fully functional with Windows 10 or macOS (Catalina 10.15.7 or above).

In addition, you need internet connection with the network bandwidth required for the video conference or stream. If your computer manages Zoom/Teams/Skype/other tools, you are good to go.

However the app is quite power thirsty, so please do not forget to plug in your charger.

We highly recommend to use mouse to operate in the 3D world. You can handle it by using touchpad or other pointing device, mouse is just the most convenient.

DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS & TRICKS TO ENJOY THE 3D WORLD MORE?

Of course 😉

The best thing to start with is to watch the video tutorial  and then there is a few more features:

1. If you want to leverage the maximum area of your screen, turn of the “full screen” mode – which can be done either via Menu / Settings or by pressing “Alt-Enter” keys. This is usefull also in case the lower edge of the screen is overlaped by the Windows taskbar (which is the case if you cannot see e.g. the Mic / Video buttons on the lower right).
2. If you would like to quickly send a text message, just hit “Enter” key and continue typing your message. By hitting “Enter” again, you send the message. This trick can be used to quickly greet someone you pass by or if you meet someone out of the chat-zone.
3. Would you like to send message to a specific person? Click on “Users” button on lower left, choose from the list of the people in 3D world (listed alphabetically). Click on “message” and continue typing your message, sending it by “Enter”. Chat in the 3D world is not made for long letters and discussion, rather to transfer short messages like where to meet and chat or exchange information you need – phone, e-mail or code for the raffle, LinkedIn profile or web.
4. Would you like to make a selfie screenshot and the chat window or other controls are ruining the view? Just hit “Ctrl-H” and make them dissapear. Second push and they are back.
5. The same thing with your Avatar – is it in the way, blocking view on a poster or stage? Hit “Ctrl-P”.
6. Would you like to wave, dance or explore other gestures? Hit “E” and choose from the selection.
