You've been waiting a long time
for this! And now, the wait is over! We have
released a downloadable copy of the 4.1 browser which
you can use to access the 4.1 "preview" universe
that we are currently working on transitioning to.
This complex transition requires us to prepare and move
all of our large public building worlds. There are a number
of other steps to take in order to complete this transition,
and we are working hard to do so.
Here are a few highlights of this
great new version:
New Interface: The GUI of the browser
has been modified so that all of the parts of your browser
window are floating and dockable. The interface is streamlined
and very customizable.
 Object
Properties Dialog: The object properties box
has been updated to accommodate the dynamic features of
4.1.
Movers: A favorite of many, movers allow
a user to create a vehicle of any sort!
Particles: Particle Emitters are a new
type of object which create special effects.
Personal Avatar: This feature will allow
you to take your own avatar to any world which allows
it.
VOIP: Short for Voice Over IP, this
feature will enable voice chatting where permitted.
But that's not all! There are tons of
improvements to the AW browser in version 4.1. You can
learn all about it in the 4.1 help files, located here:

Ready to try it?
NOTE: Installing this downloadable
version and accepting the 3.6 automatic upgrade dialog
will over-write your 3.6 browser. It is recommended that
you specify a different installation directory so you
may return to 3.6 until 4.1 is officially implemented.
Go ahead and give it a try! Just open your 3.6 browser
and accept the updated version dialog. You may also click
the URL below to download the 4.1 browser. Enjoy!
