Hope Cybrary needs help with Cobalt
Good Day All,
We just finished building and are about to launch the Hope Cybrary, a free Cyber Library here in Manila, Philippines for disadvantaged children, and we plan on using Cobalt-Edusim in a key role. We are also building another Cybrary in Baghdad Iraq, with more to follow soon in other parts of the world.
We are really impressed with Cobalt - Edusim and were hoping to use either Cobalt or the Edusim version during our Open House next week, but we are having some trouble getting some of the pre-built worlds to load properly. We downloaded the zip files such as Mayflower & Plymouth Rock World from here: http://edusim3d.com/index.php?page=parts.php&part=4 and we followed the instructions from here: http://edusim3d.com/alpha/loading_world_packages.png however the worlds aren't loading, nor are we getting any error messages.
We are using the latest release Edusim Alpha 10, and also the latest version of Cobalt opencobalt-1.0alpha1rc13. We have tried installing via the URL using cobalt worlds: .c3D URL: http://cobaltworlds.com/worlds/UBC_Garden.c3d and it fetches for a while and then just kinda peters-out, and we have also tried manually installing as we described above and we just aren't having any luck. Is there some king of a patch or a work around that someone can suggest? FYI: Kitwine works for us at the Cybrary and has already posted a couple of questions.
In case anyone wants to learn more about the Cybrary I've attached a PDF file that explains a bit about our Cybrary.
Cheers...fred lewis

Hi Guys .... I would stick with the A10 version of Edusim and build a few worlds using resources from the google 3D warehouse at http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse ..... We will be re-authoring the .c3d spaces in cobaltworlds.com when we hae time over the summer so they are compatible with the updates to the Cobalt code
