These help files can help you learn about many of the things you can do within the virtual environment. You'll learn how to enter the River Valley Orchidworks virtual universe, how to move and teleport, how to change your view, how to build, how to talk to other users, and how you can use a web browser to view homepages and other HTML documents. You'll also get information on sound and music and other actions that you can assign to virtual objects inside Casmira.

The Casmira World Browser

The Casmira World Browser is the software that you use to visit the virtual environment. Casmira is a place that you inhabit along with other users who are logged in to the system at the same time as you are. You can communicate with other users, and you can see their avatars. Casmira lets you build, and whatever you build is visible to all others who visit the world. In short, Casmira is a shared experience using the Casmira World Browser as an intermediary and common language.
