The difference between ‘Altspace’, ‘Mine’ and ‘Featured’ tabs #
This can confuse a lot of new users who are having trouble finding things in their world editor. Altspace provided kits, MRE’s, Skyboxes are spread out between the ‘Altspace’ and ‘Featured’ tabs you see at 6 & 8 of the image above. When someone shares a kit, skybox or MRE with you they can be accessed under ‘Mine’.
What the world editor isn’t #
- You are unable to unshare or share kits via this panel
- You cannot share or manage world permissions (exception to using command line)
- You cannot ‘undo’ changes that you make on the fly
How to I access the World Editor panel? #
You need to have terraformer access or the world to be your own space. You can access your world editor panel at the bottom right hand corner of your display.
How do I get my skybox/kit etc featured? #
For the exception of MRE’s there haven’t been any featured kits contributed by users added. Recently Altspace was licensed to add additional Synty asset store content but adding user content is risky legally for Altspace to accept in the masses. Short answer, you can’t but although may not be impossible and recommend submitting a ticket.
