Object2VR Tutorials

Below is a list of numerous video tutorials intended to help you get the most out of Object2VR.

All tutorials are recorded on MacOSX but the functions work the same way on Windows and Linux. Only the interface looks a little bit different.

The Basics

Getting Started		A quick introduction to Object2VR 2.0.
Multiresolution		In this tutorial, learn how to add multiple levels of resolution to an object movie using Object2VR’s multiresolution feature.
Adding Hotspots		Hotspots are definable areas of interaction within the object movie.
View States		View states can be defined as alternative views of an object and this tutorial will show you how to build them into your project.

Skin Editor

Welcome		This is a short introduction to the series of smaller tutorials that will introduce you to the Skin Editor found in both Pano2VR and Object2VR.
Introduction to the Interface		The interface has three main parts: the Tree, Editor and Properties. The tree is your browser and organizer for elements, the editor is your workspace or canvas, and the properties is where you edit the elements.
The Tree		The tree is where the skin elements are organized and layered.
The Editor		Here you can change the attributes, and actions and convert images to buttons.
The Properties		Here you can change the attributes, and actions and convert images to buttons.
The Toolbar and Menu bar		The toolbar hold all the available tools for creating your skin. The menu bar includes some features not found anywhere else, like showing guides.
The Basic Workflow		The skin editor is a powerful tool and there are many ways to work and create within it. The following tutorials will show you the basic workflows for editing and creating skins.
Edit an Existing Skin		The most basic workflow is to simply choose a default skin from the list in both the Flash and HTML5 outputs and to edit it to your needs.
Add a Clickable Logo		For some projects, only a simple logo or simple interactive image is needed. In this tutorial we add a logo and link it to a website.
Create a Custom Controller		On-screen controls let the user move the panorama or object movie with out clicking within the image. A controller can be complex or simple, depending on the project’s needs. In this tutorial we’ll build a simple one from scratch.
Build a Simple Loading Bar		Loading bars are a way to let the user know that the panorama or object is loading.
Add Sounds to Buttons		In this tutorial, we add sounds to buttons to help give user feedback to the controller.
