    Hello everyone!
    After months of hard work, we're thrilled to share the latest updates on our game with you in this blog post.
    The most exciting news is that we've launched a beta server for testing the 3DXChat 3.0 Beta before implementing any changes to the main version. If you can't wait to try out the updated client, you can access it now by following this link: Join 3DXChat 3.0 Beta.
    Let's dive into the details:
    Improved Stability
    We've prioritized enhancing the game's stability based on player feedback. To achieve this, we've taken a two-stage approach:
    Stage 1 - Upgraded the game engine to Unity 2021 latest version. Stage 2 - Addressed bugs in the game code. Game Engine Update
    3DXChat has successfully completed the first stage of porting the game to the new Unity 2021 engine, replacing the old 2018 version, and we are currently in the second stage of fixing bugs. This update grants us access to a wealth of technical improvements implemented by the engine development team. You can find a more comprehensive list of changes on the official Unity website.
    It's important to note that most of the significant changes have been made behind the scenes and may not be immediately visible to players. Nevertheless, we believe it's crucial to deliver the game using the latest technology. We chose Unity 2021 as it's the version recommended by Unity itself for stability and suitability in ongoing projects. The newer versions, such as Unity 2022 and above, are currently considered unstable and recommended for research purposes only.
    With the new engine in place, we'll be able to utilize all the features it offers. This upgrade brings numerous bug fixes and engine optimizations, resulting in a more stable client for players to enjoy while we continue addressing remaining issues.
    Our upcoming plans involve further improving stability by continuing the bug fixing phase, alongside developing new content such as clothing and animations.
    During the engine porting process, some systems encountered issues. However, we're happy to report that we've fixed them all, and in some cases, completely redesigned them. For instance, we revamped the beer drinking system, enhancing it by adding new types of drinks and food. As you consume these items, you'll notice the liquid level in the bottle dropping and bits of food disappearing from your plate. We've also introduced the ability to throw the bottle out of your character's hand, adding more realism to the experience.
    But our efforts didn't stop at the engine upgrade. We've also included several new features and content for you to enjoy.
    Open Your Own Shop
    You now have the option to build your own store or place items anywhere in your location for other players to purchase. When items sell in your store, you'll receive 90% of the XGold earned. Grateful visitors can support your business by buying food and drink. Moreover, many of these items come with fun special effects. For example, vapes can emit colorful vapor, creating a smoke screen.
    Share XGold Between Users
    You can now gift XGold to other players or use it as payment for services. These features expand the game mechanics and offer fantastic role-playing opportunities.
    Record Your Parties Like a Pro
    We've added an optional camera mode for video recording (accessible via the F8 hotkey). This mode enables you to capture smooth, seamless fly-throughs or set the camera to behave like a quadcopter. Additionally, you can now control the default camera using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
    New Content
    We also have new in-game content for you, including:
    Food and drinks objects for World Editor Clothes (remastering old clothes + material system and brand new items) Tattoos (6 new hand-drawn tattoos) Sexual Positions (Not available in the beta client! Because they are in closed testing. You will get them in the release on the main server after the beta ends)

    development
    Hello everyone! We wanted to update you on the latest developments of our game. We have started a blog to keep you informed and hope you enjoy it.
    In November 2022, we did a comprehensive survey with NoirDesire to gather feedback on the game's quality. While we are still processing the results, NoirDesire kindly shared some interim feedback. We have gained insight into players' thoughts on crucial aspects, such as game bugs and features they would like added.
    Most players, like us, desire a more stable game. We will make this our top priority.
    To accomplish this, we are currently porting the game to a newer version of the Unity engine. The new engine will allow us to benefit from the many improvements and refinements that Unity developers have made over the past few years. Since the game is currently using an outdated 2018 version of the engine, we have decided to update this platform first.
    While porting the game to the new engine, some systems have broken. We have been able to fix nearly all of them and even enhance some. For instance, the beer-drinking system was broken; we have entirely revamped it and added new types of drinks and food. As you drink, you will notice the liquid level in the bottle decreases, and bits of food vanish from your plate. Additionally, we have added the ability to toss the bottle out of the character's hand.
    We have included pictures/videos of the drink and food system for you.
    Champ.mp4 CottonCandy.mp4
    Glass1.mp4 Icecream1.mp4
    Whiskey.mp4 Wine.mp4

    We plan to conduct a beta test of the new client once we have migrated to the new Unity engine.
    Stay tuned for more updates on the progress of 3DXChat development!
