Minutia moves to the Active Worlds Server!

This is an update for all 'Minutians' who signed up to enjoy Miniature World's virtual reality, The Isle of Minutia.

Since its inception and launch in 2012, as part of Miniature World's 40th anniversary, hundreds of people have signed up to explore the Isle of Minutia, 
a unique online extension of the popular Victoria BC attraction. Originally, the application was released as a stand-alone virtual world, however recently the Isle of Minutia has been moved in cyberspace and now resides exclusively within the Active Worlds Universe (you can uninstall any current version of Minutia you may have). Active Worlds is itself celebrating their 20th anniversary this year as the oldest and most trusted virtual worlds Universe!

The move to Active Worlds opens up access to people with both Mac and Windows PCs alike to download the 3D browser!
 
Minutia Memberships are not affected other than the need for members to update their 3D browser software by going to www.activeworlds.com  and downloading the appropriate version for your system. Once the software is installed, it is a simply matter of clicking and running it from the AW desktop icon. 

TO UPDATE YOUR ACCESS:
1. Please go to www.ActiveWorlds.com and download the free 3D browser now.
2. 
The Active Worlds Browser will install to your hard drive and create a Desktop Icon on any 
Windows or Mac computer. 
3. Double-Click the AW icon and at the login click the Immigrate button.
4. 
Choose an initial Avatar and select a name and password.
Once you log in, 
1. look in the Worlds list on the left for - Minutia - 
2. Click It to teleport directly there and then... 
3. immediately select, from the Teleport Menu: 
- Make This my Home -
YOU'RE DONE!

Each time you run the Active Worlds browser, from then on you will enter and land in 
the Isle of Minutia, by default.

Miniature World extends its thanks to all who have taken the time to explore our little world and invites you to continue enjoying  it within the Active Worlds Universe.
As always we appreciate if you would spread the word by sending your friends to http://minutia.ca/passports to register for free.

Have a great summer, and by the way,  feel free to send us your best spherical photos, it's an excellent new feature in the Active Worlds 3D browser!
Cheers.
