Midterm #3 (File Type)

Format: JPG
Format: PNG
Format: GIF
It is a midterm exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College. The course is called Discovering Computer Graphics. For details, visit the immersive BC portal at 
http://ImmersiveEducation.org/@/bc.
The original file type was in .tif but I changed and saved into three popular web formats: .jpeg, .png, and .gif. Once you open the original image (Ball.tif), then you can "save as" in different file types. You can either choose file type by clicking "Select file type (extension)" or simply typing desired file types in name box.

Rocket World is built using open simulator. It’s different from other virtual platform. It is familiar with second life.

Most common way to move around is arrow key. When text chat is open, it is not possible to move around with arrow key. Left most button is text chat.

Local chat button shows history of chatting.

Scroll on the mouse changes the perspective (Wide view or narrow view). Click on avatar’s back then it also changes the perspective (Up and Down).

There is a fly button, which makes better view. Also, you can hold your E key and C key. When you press stop flying button, then gravity comes back and the avatar goes again to the ground.

Mini-map button shows various regions. It can be resized the mini-map using mouse. Yellow dots on mini-map are indication of your friends. By double-clicking other colors of avatars, you can add them as friends.

One of advantages of having lot of friends is that you can actually use teleports.
