You're probably trying out our Kataspace demo at <a href="<a" href="<a" rel="nofollow">http://sandbox.ourbricks.com>http://sandbox.ourbricks.com</a></a> -- sorry about the confusing domain name. KataSpace is a demonstration of an interactive world showing other users online in real time. I'd recommend also taking a look at OurBricks as well.</p>
<p>The OurBricks upload site <a href="<a" href="<a" rel="nofollow">http://www.ourbricks.com>http://www.ourbricks.com</a></a> will work without enabling any insecure features, since it doesn't show other users in real-time.</p>
<p>FYI: the security hole Danielle affects a minority of the population--those with ISPs which intercept web traffic and do so improperly. Firefox made the decision to turn WebSockets off by default, while Chrome left it enabled.

<p>network.websocket.override-security-block;true</p>
<p>I'm not very happy about using software that requires overriding a security feature, so for now I will pass on this.</p>Danielle commented on 'OurBricks Imports COLLADA Files into a Shareable Space on the Web -- Even Second Life & Blue Mars-Compatible Files!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0148c751948b970c2011-01-05T05:56:49Z2011-01-05T05:56:49ZDaniellehttp://dev.bluemars.com/wiki/index.php/Tool_DownloadThis was already set in my copy of Firefox 4 beta 8: webgl.enabled_for_all_sites;true<p>This was already set in my copy of Firefox 4 beta 8:</p>

(Object is extremely low-poly so that should not be a consideration. DAE exported with 3DSMax 9; DDS texture included in ZIP.)</p>
<p>Tested with Firefox Beta and got the same result.</p>
<p>Tried to end-run the university firewall with a VPN connection; couldn't even finish uploading - the filesize showed uploading complete but the "now uploading" message refused to disappear.</p>
<p>On the plus side, Chrome Beta does load the sandbox, but without the ability to upload models there's no point to going in.</p>Daniel commented on 'OurBricks Imports COLLADA Files into a Shareable Space on the Web -- Even Second Life & Blue Mars-Compatible Files!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf74053ef0147e1462b38970b2011-01-04T23:19:07Z2011-01-04T23:19:07ZDanielI wasn't being very clear type about:config in the address bar, hit enter like it's a website then type webgl...<p>I wasn't being very clear<br />
