However, the bot cannot be added to any further Discord server and where it is installed it does not give a notification on that:

Also, I think with no visible response time, they just set the Europe and USA server to constantly "OKAY" but did not integrate the new one. It looks like as if the status site became a bit useless, doesn't it? In addition it seems they did not verify the Discord bot which means, after it was integrated in 100 servers, it cannot be integrated in any further server (sorry but my browser is German).

Also, the number of room loading failures increased after the server re-configuration.

At least disconnects and room loading errors became worse, nice they accelerated this and that but for me it just means the obvious failures show up more often and faster:

In fact there are no any Europe and USA game serves anymore, there is only one "New" server: So, I think the site no longer really delivers complete status information and cannot detect all the disconnects we face since the server change?

Well, that's really nice but for me it means at least 40% - 80% more disconnects, in other words: The acceleration of network and decreasing of latency had made things worse for me and I think I am not the only one From my side, for the stability of the connection, this is a clear step in the wrong direction. Traffic acceleration and latency reduction are not the answer to the sensibility to package loss, which now obviously has become worse. Update: It became nearly impossible to have 12 hours without any disconnect Avatars invisible when entering a room bug is also worse. And when it is not me, my friends get the disconnects?

Maybe it would be a good thing not to implement patches in the main (master/trunk) development fork but in a branch and then to merge the fixes of the branch into the master. Now we have new menu items that do not anything but the same as "Ignore" does. People will ignore inadvertently their friends when trying around with this menue items.

I don't see any advantage in doing this, in contrast it disables harmless feautures users may enjoy. What users do on their machines is theirs and bad data input should be filtered by the server. So I do not see security issues for the system and when I risk just my own security it is okay. Also I never heard of problems with this tools. So, why did you implement this?

The new hair styles mess up the hat functionality Be in a room and haver horn on (or ears) Then take off the horns Get the horns put on again And it's not only horns and ears, which one would nearly not take of (but remember it's a feature that now is bugged) but also the Alice band, which I would suppose to be taken off and on. For what reason ever putting on a hat always causes the hairstyle to adapt to a hat. It does not happen with the old hairstyles and I do not see any reason why new hair styles shall react different from the old ones, why this point in technology was changed. I suggest an asap hotfix as this is another immersion breaking bug. At least for me the quality of the update regarding the new hair styles loses significantly with this bug.

I don't think this is a bug. I more think they try to reduce computing effort and simply stop some computing at a certain number of object, like the collision detection. I remember the problems this causes became worse over time, in my location there suddenly was a hole in the ground after an update where there never was one before. It's just another issue they just do not talk about and I think it is because they either cannot change it, do not want to change it or both, it is reported since long and over and over again.

OFF TOPIC It's not a version. On a press conference East Germany announced new free movement rules for its citizens. When asked when the new rules will come into effect, SED (East Germay single political party) member Günter Schabowski answered, because not knowing it any better: "Nach meiner Kenntnis … ist das sofort, unverzüglich" (means "right now, at once"). It just marks the end, the preparation had begun long before. Here: https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/the-journalist-question-that-fractured-the-berlin-wall/

First of all thank you for answering. Coming to your question what I think about your words let me say it this way: I can understand your point of view very well and doing things at your own pace in a small team is pretty much okay for me. If you read back the Discord world channel, you will even find me on the side of having understanding for the new poses take much more time than 2-4 weeks. I do not doubt the new engine is an improvement and I appreciate you keep us informed about the technical progress. Still I have my user's side to look at it too. Let me explain where my expectation came from: The as pic quoted Discord post from your team member Zabi was under the mentioned gestures and new moving type which, from my view, at least implicitly, causes the expectation of the animation presented as preview will be released with the next update. I think we will never have the same point of view as we look on it from different sides but thank you for the clear words to avoid expectations, that’s something I can deal with.

Adding poses and clothes is not really new. Looking at the last update we had the flares ok in beta but making the body vanish with hider too, this means they did not release what they showed us in the beta. So this way you might be right but it makes the beta pointless, when in the update to the main new bugs are introduced. From a beta I would expect to have all features, that's what a beta is for, to find bugs, to get the software stable for release. Without the features the implicitly announced I suppose many will act like me: I do not care for this beta, the experiences with the last ones shows it does not help to improve the quality.

Enless captcha I faced when using VPN. It somehow seems though the site excpets my IP the captcha service does not, something like this. If you do not use VPN try VPN and empty your browser caches first. The same applies for the downloads, there seems to be contingent per IP and if more people share the same IP through VPN the contigent is at its end quite fast.

Okay, I am disappointed, really really disapointed Where is the "fuck off" gesture? Where is the crawling? We waited that long for these new innovative things just to find there was nothing added to the system, it is just "adding poses" only again for what all the time was needed? (see https://discord.com/channels/537730036485193748/1041351208213942312/1143592730988138538 ) It was posted in August and nothing is done until now? Am I blind? Why are there still no panties in the new material system? Why is the reason for this not explained? One year later the promise to have all clothes with the new material system is still not fulfilled. New hotpants ony frayed like for jeans, how should one use leather material with them, why are there no hiders? It's not what I would call dedication for design and details, sorry. If I really do not miss to see obvious things, it really appears to me it is a bit back to the old ways: Things are announced but not released. This has nothing to do with why bugs are not fixed, this feels again back to the old ways. In fact nothing was ever promised, so it is formally okay but implicit exactions have been triggered. It remembers me of the posts where customizable clothes/hair was shown (not material but length an such) and then simply was never picked up again. I would love to get explanations of what is going on and when things are to be released, what the problems are you facing regarding the new gestures and crawling moving, why there is this delay. You started to be communicative but in these cases it is just still not enough for I have not any clue what's going on and see the old things happen or not happen.

Regarding the missing bug fixes you might like to read this: Quo Vadis 3DXChat? Part II - New Ways Gizmo ones greeted me as "3DX biggest critic" because I said the same as you just did since years but finally he started to talk to me openly and honest and approved what I wrote about the current situation of 3DXChat and its future. It's not I am his biggest fan now because so far things in fact did not change and I still would love an even better and more detailed and, regarding times, more precise communication but so far SexGameDevil since some time does what say announce. Also they improved their communication and when I am able to deliver facts on bugs they listen and I get answers. So I think I stay a critic but also see a change to the better even it does not bring the highly and since long wanted bug fixes right now.

That's not my point, my point is that each clothing item should fit to each other item, no holes in any clothing item in no pose, that hair does not clip through bodies and clothing in any pose and that at least in General locations sitting poses should not lead to arms and feet sticking in the table. This needs many, many adaptions but I would appreciate if they could fix at least some of them, it would increase my user experience dramatically. (I am none of those who sit on a stool in these often awful build "Sex no Chat" location with arms rested on air or feet stick into the ground and such, I need some better quality.)

This is an old topic but to say a bit what I got to know by just observing about how the clothing system works: Opening the “layer system” for all, as it is requested in this topic, is not an easy thing to do because in fact the clothing items are not an onion layer system like you know it from rl with tops and pants over undies and a coat over all. It’s more a system of meshes in which software logics and rules decide what to paint in which situation. For instance the system is in a way, that it never draws any part of a bra as soon as you wear a top or a dress. Especially regarding the breast harness and the open jacket this might not be realistic but at least it offers an easy rule to wear any top over any bra. Converting this system of meshes into a real clothing layer system like we have it in rl, if the Unity engine allows it, I imagine a high effort which cannot be done on a short term. Another example: If you have a close look to stockings you will recognize they are more in the skin than on it which means, they are more paintings like tattoos which is why the stockings are all toe stockings and socks and why panties appear over stockings. So taking the garters to the stockings category cannot work out because the garters are no painting on the avatar, they are really items over the skin of the avatar. This is not to rate the clothing system of 3DXChat in any way, it is just to explain an actual status and why therefore changes are not easy to do and may last. I would have some suggestions for SexGame Devil of how to open some of the possibilities to everyone in the character editor but this is effort too and could lead to even more clipping issues we need to take care about as users than there already are in the standard system (e.g. through the hood of hoodies clipping long hairs) which should be fixed first form my point of view.

I never thought one of my posts will be get quoted and referred to so often. I am glad it can be of help.

As one of the oldest groups around, consisting of mainly rock and metal music fans, of whom some perform as the BONES band, we support the Red Baron Band's request for increasing the amount and possible actions of the 3DXChat instrument's inventory. Until now just the one single instrument pose is available, while playing an instrument. Furthermore, we believe music is one of the most essential parts of our virtual world, being played in different styles in every room. We support the idea, being able to express music in visible actions more variable too. "Expressing music in avatar actions" from our point of view is basically possible in dancing, AND performing with instruments. It is our conviction that the abilities to express music as visible avatar action and playing various instruments, should be a more important goal for 3DXChat's developement. The BDSMetal Gang with its band BONES herewith signs the Red Baron Band initiative for more and improved music instruments in 3DXChat.

Even better: It will happen but also in a way we did not expect

The thing with names is strange, there are several hints of design failures in the database. I once had 2 friends on my friend list (FL), let’s call them Bob and Alice, they have been married and it was in their profiles under “Married to” correctly, Bob was married to Alice and Alice to Bob. The Time came when Bob left 3DX and deleted his Avatar. Alice was still married to Bob but when you clicked on Bob the “Can’t view this profile” text for a deleted Avatar appeared. Okay, to have memory I think it is okay, to keep the married to entry and let it point into the void, all good here. But how did I wonder, when I one day clicked the Bob-link in Alice’s profile again and I saw a profile of Bob! There suddenly was a Bob again! The new Bob was from USA, the first Bob wasn’t even capable of speaking English which means the new Bob was not the old one for sure. So suddenly Alice was married to another Bob, to the one that has taken the free name. The other way round, the new Bob was not married to Alice, it was a one way marriage. It seems the relations between avatars are done by their names at times, not by their IDs, a design failure in my eyes. --- From another person I knew he deleted his 3DX Account but even when the time to reactivate the account was expired his avatars have been still available on my FL and clicking them has taken me to the correct profiles. (The avatars are gone now because the person wrote to support and asked to delete them.) --- => Everything is possible
