Better late than never.

It took a bit longer than expected, but MV3D version 0.32 is almost ready to go out. At this time, I’m looking for people to test and report any bugs you may find. I’ve upgraded the alpha server (alpha.mv3d.com) to this version and have it up and running now. You can grab the client and server from SVN if you’d like. Note that a new Media package is available in the downloads section of the site. If you are running Windows and just want to try out the client, I have a zip file with everything you need (including media) located here:

http://download.mv3d.com/MV3D-0.32-rc2-WindowsClient.zip

You may also require:

http://download.mv3d.com/vcredist_x86.exe (Visual C++ Redistributable)
http://download.mv3d.com/dxwebsetup.exe (Direct X)

Before logging in to the alpha server, you will have to create yourself an account using the login server:

https://login.mv3d.com:8080/

I hope to wrap up this release soon.

New features in this release:

  • Graphics
    • Trees
    • Grass
    • Clouds
    • Multiple player models
  • Basis for the new in game editor
  • Server
    • Axiom based persistence engine
    • Proper logging
    • SSH REPL for admin/debugging
  • In Game
    • Character generator including model selection
    • Chat works
    • Enhanced biped physics
    • Working water physics
