Class 13: Meshmoon Optimization

Using the Meshmoon profiler I used the FPS tracker to see that I was averaging in the low twenties in FPS. I already had water turned off but after tweeking image sizes and Meshmoon's graphics I managed to average in the 30's and ticked 40 in one spot.



36 fps in a heavy media zone wasn't bad

36 here after tinkering with the images section

turning the rendering to "low"

I noticed that some of my videos were deleted which is frustrating...

graphics settings...

custom....

I actually found that making my images smaller made for a more consistent FPS rate

I hit 40 FPS!

Class 12 FINAL PROJECT STEP 9: ADDING 10 NEW CONTENT ELEMENTS TO MY IMMERSIVE LIBRARY.

I updated my virtual library with a total of 10 new videos/research papers that I've been collecting. Meshmoon is running much heavier now, so a challenge for me is maintaining a clean an efficient build to limit the lag in the server. In my update I used 6 videos and 4 web page drops which for some reason comes up not loading the page. However, when you click on it it will take you to the specified web page. I feel that working with the videos has been the most consistent aspect in uploading content in Meshmoon so far.

Here I am placing the web pages strategically

Here's the overall view of it. I'm having issues with the webpages, but when I click on them they display just fine

Class 12 FINAL PROJECT Step 8: ADDING 5 PDF PAPERS TO MY IMMERSIVE LIBRARY

I created a "PDF Room" where I placed access to my PDF research files. I had some trouble as my other classmates did in dropping downloaded PDF files. Instead, I dropped the webpages where the PDF files are located.

I used a brick texture to create a room

here's a closer look...

I first tried to upload downloaded research PDF files...

but it didn't work as the texture did not render

So instead I placed webpages that links to the PDF files. Here's one













and another

and a few more until I created 5 in total.

Class 12: FINAL PROJECT Step 7: Adding 5 videos

Here I am uploading videos into my Meshmoon Immersive Library. It was a bit difficult at first because I tried to apply the videos into cubes that I created. However after doing so, the videos would not display so after consulting our google group, AJ gave me the idea of downloading the research youtube video and then dragging it into the world. Even this didn't work at first but I rebooted Rocket and it uploaded just fine.

This is how it turned out:
