Check out realXtend
The folks over at realXtend are doing some amazing things. To check out the new version:
(1) Visit http://www.realxtend.org/page.php?pg=downloads and download the realXtend 0.4 viewer.
(2) If you haven’t yet, visit http://users.realxtend.net/rexauth/Register.aspx and create an account (and avatar name!) while it is downloading.
(3) Install the viewer, and fire it up once the install completes.
(4) Enter the user name (username@avatar.realxtend.org) and password you used to register. Note, enter the user name, NOT the avatar name.
(5) Make sure “Authentication Server Home Grid” is selected in the “Connect To:” drop down. Notice, you can also log into any grid, including Second Life, with this viewer!
(6) Click CONNECT, and soon you’ll be in the world!
If you are familiar with Second Life, you’ll quickly notice many similarities between the viewer. Many. I hope this simplifies the process for people wanting to see the capabilities of realXtend – it is REALLY impressive!
