  • Gallery Zoom: It is now possible to zoom in on individual media items in the gallery. Please note that it doesn’t support touch controls yet. This is just the first stage of the feature, and we will continue to refine it in future updates.

  • Widget Updates: Renamed WBP_TimeOfDay to WBP_CompassClock to better reflect its actual role, and fixed some of the functions.

Alongside these updates, we have included various other small tweaks and bug fixes.

Hi Karl, we appreciate your efforts and the brilliant work you’re doing.

However, $500 is just too overpriced for the package… especially in its early access stage.
We really hope you can relook into that.

Hi Karl Detroit,

Thanks for the update, what is the best way to update if we already started a project with the first version?

Hello @inbrains2000,

Thank you for the kind words and your feedback on the pricing. Actually, there will be a slight increase in price once the documentation is complete.

AVE II is designed mainly for developers who are already doing client work with the legacy ArchViz Explorer. We spent a lot of time making it unique to support projects that require professional workflows. For example, it is currently the only template out there using a material-based UI and Common UI. That feature alone takes weeks to implement properly into a project.

Please send us an email or PM if you would like to learn more about the features of the project and see it in action.

Here is the add-on for Ultra Dynamic Sky (UDS), as well as a brief guide on how to integrate it into your project: Integrating Ultra Dynamic Sky - KARL DETROIT

We will soon share another tutorial explaining how to read data tables/CSV from Google Sheets.

Hello Karl.

Please can you implement also button for all pois.
So that i can easily when poi is created togle on and off for extra button (with name i can easily change) and that button should open an external link. (Every poi should have its own button with custom link NOT that all pois got same link).
Similar like here in the video:
NB!! You see the function in SECOND PART OF THE VIDEO. I click on button and it opens EXTERNAL link.
Idea is to have all poi links SEPARATE!!

How to change photos in the gallery to your own? In the old version it was much easier

I have not used the product but was planing to buy it. I yust wanted to make sure that before i buy it has also this option. (basically buton to be able to open external link) and every poi can have its own external link (link what user wants to be used).

Greetings,

In the upcoming days, we will release our Easter Update. Here is a brief overview of what you can expect in AVE II v2.2.

  • Google Sheets CSV Integration


    A free Add-On will utilize the third-party Runtime DataTable plugin to fetch Google Sheets CSV data to update units. This is similar to the implementation in the legacy ArchViz Explorer. Because this works at runtime, there will not be a need to package the project every time a data change is made.

  • CRM Data Alignment
    There will be structural changes to the variables in S_InfoUnit and, consequently, to the Blueprints and Widgets that reference it. Variable types and naming conventions now align with industry-standard CRM software, such as Salesforce, Realpad, Propertybase, and Yardi. This will make the integration of CRM data from servers much easier.

  • External Links and Custom Events via Info Panel
    @ISUther, we have added your request for external links. This feature will be included in the upcoming update. We are integrating a customizable button within the POI Info Panel to call external links and custom events. You can use this for actions such as opening a Web Browser Widget, playing cinematic sequences, or triggering specific events on a Reactor POI.

  • POI Media Gallery
    It will be possible to open a dedicated media gallery, supporting both images and video, directly from each Point of Interest (POI).

Additionally, we have updated the Roadmap. Instead of dates, it now displays the specific version in which a feature was, or will be, introduced. We hope this will reduce clutter and provide a clearer overview

We wish everyone a happy Easter season! :heart:

Best regards,

Dennis & Stefan
