Technical Questions
If you are having trouble seeing web-content or video in-world that other people are seeing, please be sure to install the latest version of Adobe Flash. Adobe Flash is used to display the usually ‘flat’ webpages and videos in a 3D space.
Windows users
You must have the Opera & Chromium version of the Adobe Flash plugin installed.
Go here: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions.
Select the download for “FP 22 for Opera and Chromium – PPAPI” in the list.
Download, Install, Relog viewer and you should be fixed.
Linux users
You need to have the pepperflash plugin installed, which can be satisfied by installing Google Chrome.
Mac users

Select the download for “FP 22 for Safari and Firefox – NPAPI” in the list. (Until we can find out if PPAPI is more correct we know NPAPI works for now)

Currently we support region restarts using a web based control panel. Simply login to the avatar control panel (http://wc.digiworldz.com) with your avatar credentials, choose the region to restart and click the restart button.
By default, our land/regions are set to use “Bullet” physics, but if you own a region you can choose to change this at any time to the Open Dynamics Engine (ubODE) using our web based control panel, or, back to Bullet physics if you have already changed it.
Sure, as long as the virtual world you are coming from supports allowing you to travel to DigiWorldz. Our login URI is: login.digiworldz.com:8002
The default in world currency found in DigiWorldz is provided by a 3rd party (http://PODEX.Info). Some regions inside DigiWorldz will support the Gloebit currency, but that is up to each region owner to choose. Currently, PODEX does allow one to transfer money from other virtual worlds being serviced but there is a fee to transfer. Please see their website for more details: http://PODEX.info
In some cases yes, but you must have the “Rights” to use any content brought to our world and DigiWorldz does not provide any support on any objects uploaded to our world as content is the responsibility of the user who uploads the content.
I have been asked by many “How do you setup an account at Gloebit”?
Well, Christopher Colosi from Gloebit was kind enough to send me a step by step guide on how to do this.
It’s important to know, PODEX and Gloebit cannot both exist on the same region, so you must make a choice.
By default, our entire grid is setup to use PODEX currency, but if you would rather use Gloebit on a region you own, we can do this for you.
It’s also important to know, if you currently have a PODEX balance and you go to a Gloebit enabled region, your PODEX balance will not be shown while you are in the Gloebit enabled region. Once you go to another non Gloebit enabled region, your PODEX balance will once again become available to you.
A “Grid Within a Grid” is simply a concept, or Idea. It is not “REALLY” a grid at all as you and your users are still part of DigiWorldz. It is a service we offer to a user who has been thinking of starting his/her own grid, but may intimidated by everything needed to do so. Often times, a user is more interested in simply building a community and really doesn’t want to be bothered with everything else it takes to run his/her own grid. In this case, our Grid Within a Grid service can help. We can provide a custom signup page for an additional fee which can be embedded into an existing website, or can be left as a standalone page. By default, this signup page includes the default DigiWorldz avatars users can choose from, but a user can define “Custom” avatars to be used instead, or in combination with the existing DigiWorldz starter avatars. Once the page is setup, you can direct users to signup using your custom page. When they do, upon their initial login they will land in a region and at a starting point defined by you, instead of landing at the default DigiWorldz landing point. In addition, you also have access to features where you can control access to your regions, and you and your users have instant access to DigiWorldz events and shopping.. ie, an existing community. Instead of you taking care of servers, trying to add new features to your platform, managing/testing backups, taking care of support issues, you simply work to develop your community while DigiWorldz takes care of the rest. If you later decide to start your own grid, DigiWorldz can provide hosting and help make the transition as easy as possible. In summary, a Grid Within a Grid is simply an idea, or concept which allows you to concentrate on only building your community while we take care of the rest.

Problem Solving
Please try restarting your viewer and ensure you have only one “Copy” of your viewer running. The most common problem is having more than one viewer window open and connected to the same or different grids.
Please ensure voice service is activated inside your viewer and voice service is activated on the parcel you are in.

The first thing to do when experiencing “ANY” issue is to try a different viewer to see if the problem persists using another viewer. While the viewers share common code, All viewers are not created equally. Each viewer development team makes their own “Tweaks” and other changes and often times you will find simply by using a different viewer your problem is solved. If changing the viewer did not help.. please submit a support ticket detailing your issue and we’ll be happy to help.
Simply go to our welcome region and grab a new “Avatar”.. wear everything associated with this new avatar and your avatar should no longer be a cloud. If you need more assistance please submit a support ticket and we’ll be glad to help.
This is very true. Each item in your inventory has to be sent to your avatar when you login to the grid. The more items you have in your inventory, the longer this process is going to take.
