__________________
:: ATTENDING ::

This is an informal and casual get-together but we do ask participants to prepare in advance of the session by ensuring they have the latest version of AltspaceVR, an AltspaceVR account, and that they friend the '3Dcamp' account. Although the worlds we'll visit are open, access to the event is restricted to friends of 3Dcamp as the event will not be available to the general public on AltspaceVR. The following is the URL for the meetup - after logging in to your account, hit the 'RSVP' button so that it will show up on your Events tab on the night:

:: NOTES ::

(a) You do not need to have a VR headset to access AltspaceVR - they have PC, macOS and Android clients for access in 2D: https://altvr.com/get-altspacevr-2dmode/

(b) The worlds we'll be visiting are of high visual quality so the Oculus Quest is only supported via Link Beta for this event.

(c) Feel free to ask any questions through our discussion forum and keep an eye out for updates on the 3DCamp Facebook page or each of the organizer’s Twitter accounts (@3Dcamp, @Virt_Arch, @Young_Gareth).
