The Lounge What is on Your Mind? Idea for a New Forum Front End Using Unity and SciFi Assets Post 303004828 by Neo on Tuesday 10th of October 2017 01:24:29 AM
Old 10-10-2017
So, have been thinking about this more and how to make this idea feasible (easy to begin, scaleable)... current thought:

(1) Create a nice SciFi Environment like one in the example Unity assets.

(2) Interface the forum database to pull the avatars for each active user into the environment and have those avatars "hanging out" near a common object in the scene that represents the location of their last activity.

(3) Interface the forum database to pull the avatars for each active guest user that might be a bot into the environment and have those avatars "hanging out" in a room where we can easily see the amount of "hits" (activity).

(4) Added an embedded web browser object into the scene where users could browser the forums using the browser, or even simulate what others are browsing (posts, threads) using an embedded browser in the SciFi environment.

(5) Add a mod room that shows basic stats on newly registered users with a spam risk score and the ability to shoot them with some cool space cannon that automatically updated the backend db and bands these users.


Any more ideas?


If not, this might be the initial base line for a future front end app for the forums.

Note: I think I may move this thread out of the UG so we can get input from more members or members who are more interested in virtual worlds, etc.
