Vizard 5 Demo Launcher Problems

[Chris Coffin]

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback.

We're working to improve the network connectivity of our demo launcher, but for now you can download the demos directly using these links:

http://s3.worldviz.com/demos/downloads/modern_lobby.zip
http://s3.worldviz.com/demos/downloa..._the_plank.zip
http://s3.worldviz.com/demos/downloads/art_gallery.zip
http://s3.worldviz.com/demos/downloa...al_kitchen.zip

Just extract the zip files next to the demo_launcher32.exe file.

If you're demo launcher file is in:
D:\repos\coffin\build_test\
i.e. you have a file:
D:\repos\coffin\build_test\demo_launcher32.exe

After extracting the art gallery project you should have (among other files):
D:\repos\coffin\build_test\art_gallery\art_gallery .py


The demo launcher is using a new version of vizconnect which solves a number of network related issues. From what you are saying it sounds like you can view the vizconnect interface when running the demo launcher, but not when running the vizconnect file itself. This is a known issue for some network configurations, and will be solved in the next/final release of Vizard 5. For now you will need to configure the scripts created by the demo launcher with the demo launcher executable.

Cheers,
Chris
