How to change AV (avatar) Clothes

How I change what I look like?

Creating Your Avatar
You'll create your virtual world persona - known as an avatar -- immediately after your initial log-in.  The easy to use generator allows you to select a skin tone, pick a hairstyle, alter your eye color (girls-only) and don a beard (guys-only!). You are able to buy and change clothes when you're playing the game.


Changing Your Avatar's Clothes
The Avatar generator includes assorted clothes to get you started.  To expand your avatar's wardrobe, you'll need to teleport to the Mall where you can use your Kaneva credits to purchase more clothes-pants, shirts, shoes, etc. You can purchase any clothing, but your avatar is programmed to wear only clothes that are gender-appropriate (that's right, no cross-dressing allowed). Good news: If you mistakenly purchase clothing your avatar can't wear, you can sell it back or trade it with friends or other people.


Making Your Avatar Move

You can control your avatar's movements using the keys on your computer keyboard.    
  • To walk, use the arrow keys, or press the W (to move forward), A (to move left), S (to move backwards), or D (to move right) keys when you're not in chat.   
  • Press the Shift key to toggle between run and walk.   
  • Use the spacebar to jump.

Changing Views

To change your camera view inside the world, click the Camera icon on the menu, or press the Z key on your computer keyboard.


Emotions and Motions

Your 3D persona can display a range of expressions.   Click on the Emotes icon in the Virtual World menu to see all your choices - including emotions, gestures and even dance moves.   
  • You'll notice that men and women avatars gesture and emote differently in the Virtual World. That's how the real world works, right?   
  • To see how your avatar looks like when emoting, either click the Change View icon in the Virtual World menu, or press Z to cycle through all the views.   
  • To stop repeating moves (such as dancing), you can choose another emote or start walking or running.




==========================


How do I change my avatar's clothes?
To change your avatar’s clothes:

Click the clipboard (inventory) icon in the Heads Up Display bar (HuD), located at the bottom of your screen.


Click the Clothing tab (open by default).


The top items listed are the clothes you have on. The only option with these items is Remove; however, your avatar cannot be naked or in underwear or lingerie in public places. (Note: The only place to wear underwear or lingerie are those places designated as Access Pass only.)


To select a different clothing item, click on the item and click Wear.


Your avatar’s clothes will automatically be replaced with your new selection. (Note: To wear Access Pass-only items, you must be in an Access Pass area.)


Close the Inventory window by clicking the red X in the top-right corner.


Your 3D Home

Your 3D Home


Every Kaneva member gets a free 3D home in the Virtual World of Kaneva. Like your Kaneva profile on the Web, your home represents you. You make it your new unique virtual home! Here are some tips to get you started:


Get stuff

  • Your first voyage should be to the Mall, where you can pick up lighting, furniture, televisions, and even clothing. Click Travel on the Kaneva menu, and then select the Mall from the World places list.
  • You'll definitely want to pick up a few lamps, a television, and perhaps a bed or sofa for starters.

It's so dark!
When you first get to your home (or move to a larger one), the place is going to be dark and empty. Just like in the real world, set out some lamps!

  • If you haven't purchased any lamps, now is a good time to go to the Mall and get a few.
  • Click the Inventory icon in the Kaneva menu, and then select one of the lamps from your stuff.
  • Click Use to place the lamp where you're standing. You should notice the light right away. You may need to move away to see the lamp, but don't worry, we use cool bulbs.
  • To move the lamp, right click and use the direction buttons.
  • To change the color of the lighting, right click and select Change Pattern. You can then select any of your photos to change the color of the lighting.
  • Try new things! Suspend your lamp from the ceiling, or even in midair. See how different photos affect the light color.

Deck the Walls (and floors and ceilings…)
Upload images and photos to your media library, then use them on walls and in picture frames. You can upload media from Kaneva's web site or in game.

  • Purchase a bunch of picture frames from the furniture store in the Mall to display you r photos or friends' profile images.
  • Use your images and photos to paint your walls, floors, ceiling and even what you see outside with custom patterns or murals. Right click the wall or other surface, and then select Change Pattern. Select a photo from your media library, or upload one from the web site.
  • Use your picture frames to hang pictures of your photos or even your friends' images! Right click the wall where you want to place the picture, and then choose Hang Picture. Select a picture frame from your inventory. Next, right click the picture frame and either choose 'Select Friends Picture' or 'Select Picture.'

That Lived-In Look: Placing Furniture
Purchase or trade for furniture, games, and appliances, and then place them wherever you want in your place.

  • To place furniture, first select it with your Inventory icon, and then click Use. Kaneva drops your furniture right where you're standing, so you may need to move away to see it.
  • To move furniture around when you want to redecorate, right click the furniture and then use the direction controls.
  • To customize your furniture, right click the furniture and select 'Change Pattern.' You can then select any photo from your media library (or go to the Kaneva web site to upload photos) to cover your furniture. This even works on lighting!
Experiment and go wild! Find new and novel uses for your furniture, such as room and wall decorations.


Moving On Up: A larger home
Your home starts as a free studio apartment, but you might become so popular that your friends, furniture, and gifts fill your home. You can easily upgrade your place by purchasing larger residences. Visit the realtor in the Mall for more information or to purchase a deed to your new home.




Home & Hangout (community is same) Deeds


Home Deeds


You can have one home only
and 10 hangouts

You can only use a Home or Hangout
deed once.


If you open your new deed in your home
it will take you to your new home.

All the contents of that home will be
placed into your inventory but your old home
is then lost.

Just to clarify,

The contents of your old home will be
placed back into your inventory.

What is the difference between a home and a hangout?
What is the difference between a home and
          a hangout?
In Kaneva we have two types of
virtual player made zones:  homes
and hangouts.
Every new member automatically
gets a free home which you can
get to by clicking the house icon
on your display bar or selecting
the Your Home icon from the
overhead map (found in the Go
Places button on the same bar).
To get a hangout you will first
need to create a community. 
To do this, go to your My
Kaneva/My Profile page and
select the My Communities tab. 
This lists all the communities
you are a member of and also
lets you start new communities. 
To start a new community merely
press the "Start a Community"
button on this page.  You can
name the community, add a
descriptions, decorate the page,
upload media...everything you
can do on your profile page.
After you have created a
community, you can then
go to the 3D world where
you will find that you have
a free hangout ready for
you that is attached to
that community's name. 
You can get to it through
the "Go Places" button
then find it either by
searching your name or
the name of the community.
The free starter hangout
is the conference room. 
While it is all laid out for
our members you will notice
that you cannot texture
the walls and that the TVs
are non-functional.  You
will either need to add
building blocks and media
players that are functional
or replace the conference
room deed with another
deed.  You can buy new
deeds at the Realtor in
the mall, or through the
Catalog system, and you
also can earn a hangout
deed through World Fame
(you can earn a free green
acres deed at level 12 in
World Fame).
The deeds are broken up
by home and hangout; you
can ONLY use a home deed
in your home and a hangout
deed only in hangouts you
own.
When you go to use a deed,
go to the place where you
want to use it in the 3D world
and click the USE button in
your inventory page.  Please
remember two things when
doing this:  first, all the items
in the current location will be
moved to your inventory. 
Second, this does NOT include
any deed you currently have
placed in the location.  So if
you have a green acres deed
placed and use an island deed
over it, the green acres deed
will NOT be returned to your
inventory.   Support will not
grant you a new green acres
deed as this is working as
designed.
So be very careful when
purchasing new deeds and
very careful when placing
them.
Lastly, if you delete a
community on the 2D page,
all the items attached to the
hangout will be returned to
your inventory, but again,
any deeds placed there will
not go back to you.

How to get Help and Answers in Kaneva
by Corelli CS Manager

How to get Help and Answers in Kaneva


If you have questions on how things work in Kaneva,
or why something isn't working for you, you have a
number of ways of getting answers
.




If you are in world, the best way to get a question
answered is to ask not only your fellow members, but
our Advisors.


The Advisors are volunteers from our member ranks who
 can answer most questions about Kaneva. The Advisors
can be distinguished by the blue Advisor title above
their avatar’s head.
 

While our Advisors will not be
able to help in every situation, they are very
knowledgeable about how Kaneva works.


For certain questions or situations that arise, you
may need to contact a Game Master (GM).

GMs are Kaneva employees and are distinguished
by the red Game Master title above their Avatar’s
head.


We created our Forums for you to ask questions,
find out about events and contests, report technical
issues you are experiencing, submit suggestions
and to chat with your fellow members of Kaneva.

The Forums has an excellent search engine that
you can use to find out answers to questions
that have been asked by other members.
 

Just use a key word from the question you have
or the issue you are facing. The search engine
will pull up all posts or threads with that
key word.

The Forums are located at:
http://forums.kaneva.com/index.php
and can also be reached from the My Kaneva
’s Quicklinks button on the left hand side of
the page.


We also have a top notch Support Center for you
to use to find answers to commonly asked questions,
report problems,


Rules of Conduct violations (including harassment)
and submit help requests. In order to better help
everyone in Kaneva, we request that for most issues
 you submit  a ticket so we can better identify and track any
emerging issues.


Instead of writing a GM directly, we ask that you
use our ticketing system. To submit a ticket,
please follow these steps:


1. Go to any Kaneva 2D page (make sure to be signed in).

2. Scroll to the bottom and click the Support Center link.

3. You will be redirected and automatically logged in to
our Parature driven Support Center.

4. Here you will be able to look up articles we have
written for our Knowledge Base especially to answer
commonly asked questions and situations that our
members experience.


5. If you don’t see the answer to the question you
have, then use the Submit a Ticket option and click
through the “My Answer is not here” and send us a
ticket. We will get back to you quickly though some
issues may take longer to research. We respond to
you via the email address you have associated with
your Kaneva account.


6. You can review the tickets you have sent in by
going to the My Support tab on the front page


The Kaneva Support team monitors the Forums and will
answer general questions you may have here. We also
post about upcoming changes to Kaneva and announce
contests and events that you can participate in.


One service we do not offer is phone support. There
are no issues that cannot be resolved by the above
methods.


Lastly, if you do have an issue in Kaneva, we ask
that you refrain from “shot gunning” requests for
help.

If you send in a ticket, please don’t also post the
same request for help on the Forums.


If you post something on the Forums, please don’t
also email a GM. We try to track the issues
accurately and resolve them as quickly as possible
and it only takes longer for everyone to get help
if multiple members of Support are working on the
same member’s issue because it’s been reported in
multiple places.

Please also refrain from asking multiple Support
members the same questions. Again, it just slows
down the process for getting all our members timely
assistance.

Employment Agency
How does the Job Agency work?

In January of 2009, Kaneva launched the One Click Employment Agency, a new feature that allows members to earn Rewards every 6 hours based on how many friends they have had join Kaneva through the Invite a Friend program.

To get to the One Click Employment Agency, log into the 3D World of Kaneva, open your travel map and look for the icon labeled "One Click Employment Agency" and left click.  You will be immediately taken to the Job Agency.

Once at the job agency just step up to a terminal and hit your TAB button.  A window will appear showing you how many Rewards you can earn each time you visit the Agency based on the number of friends you have.  Each level has a rank, similar to a title in a company, based on the number of invites you have had accepted.

 

Every 6 hours you can come back to the One Click Employment Agency and "work" at your job again.  There is a timer on the window that appears if it hasn't been 6 hours since your last visit, so you know how long you have till you can work again.  Even if you have not invited anyone to join Kaneva, you can still earn 50 Rewards each time you visit!

The following chart shows you how many potential Rewards you can earn on a weekly and monthly basis if you visit the One Click Employment Agency twice a day (remember you can visit it potentially up to 4 times every day). 

As you can see, even if you only visit twice a week, you can earn between 700 and 1260 Rewards a week and between 3000 and 5400 Rewards a month, depending on how many friends you have had join Kaneva through the Invite a Friend program.  To invite a friend through Kaneva, merely select the Invite button at the job agency and it will take you through a very short invite process.  You can track your invites through your My Friends page.

To get there, use the following path once on your My Kaneva page:  My Friends->Friends Group->Manage your Invites.   From this page you can view all the invites you sent, who has responded and who has joined.

Your Media in 3D

Your Media in 3D


Feature your uploaded and connected media on televisions, radios, picture frames, and your home's floors and walls!

 

Your Photos on Walls (and floors and ceilings…)
Upload images and photos to your media library, then use them on walls and in picture frames. You can upload media from Kaneva's web site or in game. (Instructions)


Purchase a bunch of picture frames from the furniture store in the Mall to display your photos or friends' profile images.
Use your images and photos to paint your walls, floors, ceiling and even what you see outside with custom patterns or murals. Right click the wall or other surface, and then select Change Pattern. Select a photo from your media library, or upload one from the web site.
Use your picture frames to hang pictures of your photos or even your friends' images! Right click the wall where you want to place the picture, and then choose Hang Picture. Select a picture frame from your inventory. Next, right click the picture frame and either choose 'Select Friends Picture' or 'Select Picture.'


I Want My Virtual TV

If you don't have a television, go to the Mall and purchase one.
Place a television by clicking the Inventory icon, and then selecting a television in your stuff and clicking Use. Your TV appears where you're standing, so you may need to move to see it
Select the videos you want to play on your television by right-clicking the TV and selecting Change Playlist. You can then select one of your own playlists, or one of the Kaneva features.

HOW USE BANK

How do I use the Bank?

How to use the Bank

The Kaneva Bank allows you to store items from your inventory, it is FREE to use and you can access it at any time. Currently, your personal inventory can hold up to 50 different stacks of items. You can have many items in each stack, but a stack can only hold one type of item. The Virtual World of Kaneva will automatically stack items for you.  You can find the Bank in the Mall.  When you enter the Mall it will on the opposite side of the large main area to your left.




 


When your inventory becomes full, you can’t trade with members, buy items, or pick up items already placed in your home or hangout. You’ll need to move some items to the Bank in order to add more, or use existing items.

 

Visit the Bank in the Kaneva Mall and walk up to the bank teller. Press the TAB key, or right-click on the teller. Click on the item you’d like to move, enter the quantity, and click To Bank. The Bank can hold up to 250 different stacks of items.  To move an item back to your inventory, highlight the item in the Your Bank tab, enter the quantity you wish to move, then click To Inventory.
