:Welcome to your BRAND SPANKIN NEW KRAFTIES HUD!
Lets get started!
+
This wonderful creation is full of bells and whistles and is quite different from the UI (user interface) of your [[Krafties HUD v5.0. As with anything new, it will take some time getting to know your way around the HUD, and getting the "feel" of how to use it. Have patience. After a couple of "test drives", you should be comfortable enough to take this baby around the Grand Prix race-track with ease!
 +
EAGER TO GET STARTED?
 +
*This will take a little practice. The HUD is interactive and the more practice you have at opening the various apps and features, the better you will get. It will become second nature.
 +
===Customizing HUD layout===
 +
:;Click the gear and you will get a pop up. In this popup you want too hit "Only Links" (*for a link to the web browser], As well as resizing the hud. Or using Legacy within the new hud as well. For the time its till running.
  
#Click  the "HOME" icon- a white window will pop up
+
:*'''Notice:''' If you want to move the HUD itself, please DO NOT change the "HUD Attachment Point" (this will cause the HUD to flip around). Just "edit" the HUD and move it to a new location on screen.
===Customizing HUD layout===
+
 
The layout of your app windows is as follows:
+
===Loading your Apps===
*Bar across the top of the window (color depends on the app you have open)- You can click on this bar and drag the HUD to any location on your screen
+
:The HUD needs to have '''media enabled for inworld app''' to display the Apps, so be sure your SL Viewer settings have media enabled.
*Grey icon (top right) - Minimizes the window
+
:*When you first open any App, you will see "Preparing your app...", this is the default appearance.
*Red icon (top right) - Closes the window
+
:**Click the app to begin loading it (might have to click it twice).
*Grey icon (bottom right) - Clicking and dragging this icon will resize your window. Your entire screen will appear faded. This happens during the resizing process. It will disappear when you let go of the icon.  
+
:**If you cannot interact with the app after it's loaded, try touching the ground or sky before clicking the app again.
Now you will open the actual app window. Follow the instructions to open and activate the window.
+
:**If you cannot get app to load at all, then "enable links" to view the apps within a browser instead.
The window will appear shaded. Double click the window and it will come into focus (activate). If you are having trouble activating the window- click the sky or the ground, then click the window again.
+
 
After you bring the window in "focus", you can navigate as desired.
+
: *Will ask you to set a Passwork the first time using the app.
 +
:*Moving between sims can break the App link, simply closing the app and re-opening it should fix it.
 +
:*If you are having trouble opening the apps.. they are going white and back to "preparing your app" - click all 4 of the apps to open them, separate them on the viewer, then click each of them to open. This seems to get them to open and load faster. This may need to be repeated a few times.
 +
 
 +
===Enabling links (Viewing Apps within Browser)===
 +
:Some of our Krafties [[Adventurer]]s might have troubles loading the HUD Apps. If you are encountering this issue, follow these directions:
 +
:;How to Enable Links for Apps
 +
:#Click the '''Krafties Logo''' on the HUD
 +
:#Click '''"Enable Links"
 +
:#*this option will allow you to view and interact with your apps in the SL browser or an external browser.
 +
:#Close all HUD Apps by pressing the red button in the corner
 +
:#Now if you open any App, it will open in a browser instead of the HUD
 +
:#'''WORD OF CAUTION- DO NOT SHARE THE LINKS THAT APPEAR IN LOCAL CHAT WITH ANYONE. If you do so, they will have access to your HUD, thus the ability to remove and/or manipulate all items in your HUD. Krafties will not be held liable should your HUD links be shared.
 +
: #If your app is not opening in the web browser try to open in the Incognito by hitting the three dots after your web address bar. and copy and paste the link from your Nearby chat.
 +
 
 +
===Translation Options===
 +

were you looking for Krafties HUD (troubleshooting)?

HUD stands for Heads Up Display, App stands for Application

The Krafties HUD v4.045
Apps: Home, Inventory, Shopping, Creature, Guilds, Voting

,

"Preparing App", written on it are some instructions
The inbuilt "google translate"

The Krafties HUD is one of the Necessity Pack items, you cannot play the game without it.

  • It allows you to manage your Krafties Creatures and Items though various Apps.
  • All Loot and Unbonded Creatures are automatically added to your HUD (with confirmation in local chat)
    • Contents of HUD are kept on a external server, so the items within it cannot be lost even if you loose your HUD and get a new one.
  • The Apps themselves are actually webpages viewed within the HUD windows, so be sure to enable media on your SL Viewer

How to wear your Krafties HUD[edit]

  1. To wear your HUD, unpack your Krafties - Necessity Pack v5.0
  2. Right click the folder and "add to your current outfit"
    • This will attach your Creature Attachment, Tool:Right Hand, and Krafties HUD v5.0 to your avatar
    • The "Creature Attachment" is the object that will morph into your active Krafties creature
    • The "Tool:Right Hand" is that object that will morph into either your Standard Net or Pickaxe or Dragon Binding Sword
    • The HUD will attach to the top left corner of your monitor. You can add the hud to any location on your monitor. Just detach and click "Attach to hud" , then choose desired location to attach HUD

USING YOUR KRAFTIES HUD[edit]

Welcome to your BRAND SPANKIN NEW KRAFTIES HUD!

This wonderful creation is full of bells and whistles and is quite different from the UI (user interface) of your [[Krafties HUD v5.0. As with anything new, it will take some time getting to know your way around the HUD, and getting the "feel" of how to use it. Have patience. After a couple of "test drives", you should be comfortable enough to take this baby around the Grand Prix race-track with ease! EAGER TO GET STARTED?

  • This will take a little practice. The HUD is interactive and the more practice you have at opening the various apps and features, the better you will get. It will become second nature.

Customizing HUD layout[edit]

Click the gear and you will get a pop up. In this popup you want too hit "Only Links" (*for a link to the web browser], As well as resizing the hud. Or using Legacy within the new hud as well. For the time its till running.
  • Notice: If you want to move the HUD itself, please DO NOT change the "HUD Attachment Point" (this will cause the HUD to flip around). Just "edit" the HUD and move it to a new location on screen.

Loading your Apps[edit]

The HUD needs to have media enabled for inworld app to display the Apps, so be sure your SL Viewer settings have media enabled.
  • When you first open any App, you will see "Preparing your app...", this is the default appearance.
    • Click the app to begin loading it (might have to click it twice).
    • If you cannot interact with the app after it's loaded, try touching the ground or sky before clicking the app again.
    • If you cannot get app to load at all, then "enable links" to view the apps within a browser instead.
*Will ask you to set a Passwork the first time using the app.
  • Moving between sims can break the App link, simply closing the app and re-opening it should fix it.
  • If you are having trouble opening the apps.. they are going white and back to "preparing your app" - click all 4 of the apps to open them, separate them on the viewer, then click each of them to open. This seems to get them to open and load faster. This may need to be repeated a few times.

Enabling links (Viewing Apps within Browser)[edit]

Some of our Krafties Adventurers might have troubles loading the HUD Apps. If you are encountering this issue, follow these directions:
How to Enable Links for Apps
  1. Click the Krafties Logo on the HUD
  2. Click "Enable Links"
    • this option will allow you to view and interact with your apps in the SL browser or an external browser.
  3. Close all HUD Apps by pressing the red button in the corner
  4. Now if you open any App, it will open in a browser instead of the HUD
  5. WORD OF CAUTION- DO NOT SHARE THE LINKS THAT APPEAR IN LOCAL CHAT WITH ANYONE. If you do so, they will have access to your HUD, thus the ability to remove and/or manipulate all items in your HUD. Krafties will not be held liable should your HUD links be shared.
#If your app is not opening in the web browser try to open in the Incognito by hitting the three dots after your web address bar. and copy and paste the link from your Nearby chat.

Translation Options[edit]

There has been inbuilt into the apps a translation option ("google translate") which you can choose from a large list of languages in the top right corner of the app.
  • This translation feature is not perfect, but it might come in handy
