＜How to operate Avatar＞
1 View Point Change
You can change the avatar's viewpoint by "left-clicking" on the mouse (trackpad) and
Move the cursor to change the avatar's point of view.
2 Shortcut Keys
[W][S][D][A] = Move Front, Back, Left, Right (run)
3 Jump = Select "Space" key
4 Dash = run + Select "Shift" key
5 First person view = Select "2"
( Third person view ) = Select "1"
Step 6 :Save the created world
①In the settings menu, select "Save" and
then Set the world name within 40 characters.
②If it is saved, the worlds will be listed in order
*World names when saving are not in localised languages and may be garbled if they are not in Roman characters.
Due to a major update of the XANA application
Please note that worlds saved in the first test version cannot be transferred to the "22.09.16" version.
*Please be assured that data will be transferred for each update after the "22.09.16" version.（(In the event of a problem, please contact xanalia's customer support.)）
③Hover over the upper right to edit or delete the name
*There may be differences between XANA Builder and XANAapp in the display of objects, avatar operations, speed, etc. (This will be updated in the future.)
Step 7 :How to publish your created world
①Select "Publish" in the upper right corner of the edit screen (Please be sure to "Save" your data first before publishing)
②Include the world name and world description
⑤Select "which" land you own to place your world on
*You must have LAND NFT to publish.
*Currently, this feature is not yet implemented.
However, once it is implemented, the published world will be reset and you will need to select the land again.Please try it only if you understand the situation.
⑥Check Disclaimer
*LAND NFT is required for publication, please login with the wallet address you have.
⑦Select "Publish" and in a few moments, the world you created will be published in the "XANA APP" and you can visit it
③Can take pictures of the world from any angle you like.
④Select the thumbnail image you have taken and select "Confirm
HOT：
Displayed XANA's original worlds + user-created worlds
New：
Displayed user-created worlds
My World：
Only worlds created by you will be displayed (for confirmation).
*Please check your own world in the New and HOT tabs.
“My World" will be available soon as the wallet login is not yet implemented in the XANA APP.
Step 8 :How to Unpublish the created world
①Select the "Published" tab
②Right-click on the world you want to unpublish and select "Unpublish”button
③Unpublished worlds will be moved to the "Creating" tab and will not be published from the "XANA app".
Supplement: Poly Count (Test ver.)
*Please read and understand the precautions carefully before use.
Poly count
*Poly count is a numerical value of the number of objects (capacity) that affects loading time, application crashes, etc., when a world is published in the XANA app. If the objects are installed within the normal value, it means that the loading time of the world in XANA app and operability within the world will be stable.
The counts accumulate according to the object capacity, and the display changes in the following three stages (exact polycount values for each stage will be released later; for now, please refer to the indicators for each color below)
◉Light (white)
The world is loaded correctly in the XANA application and the operation is stable.
◉Medium (yellow)
The loading time is a little slower and the number of objects in the world may need to be adjusted.
◉Heavy (red)
The loading time and the usability of the world will be slow and the possibility of crashes will be significantly higher.
▼ Notes
*The XANA app will operate normally as indicated in the above indicators as long as the device meets the minimum device specifications and stable communication environment supported by the XANA app, but this does not apply to devices that do not meet the recommended specifications.
*Because of the large fluctuation in RAM capacity and device usage, the XANA app does not always work even if the device meets the recommended specifications.
*Also, the XANA app is currently being optimized, so there may be cases where the app does not run properly as indicated in the above indicators.
POLYGON: Displays the total number of polygons in the world.
Polygons are used as the basic unit to form the surface of a 3D object. Polygons can also include polygons, but we use triangular polygons as the basis for our calculations.
MATERIAL: Displays the number of assets that determine the visual information of the object.
Materials contain texture information, but they also contain physical attributes such as color, gloss, and transparency. They also work with shaders to define rules for how objects reflect or absorb light. Simply put, a material is an asset that combines texture and other visual properties to produce the final look of a 3D model.
ENTITIES: Displays the number of objects placed.
TEXTURES: Displays the number of unique texture data used on the world
(*Count will be displayed as 1 even if the same object is placed more than once)
A texture is essentially a 2D image file. This image is mapped onto a 3D model to represent surface details. For example, a texture may be used to reproduce the unevenness of a tree's surface or the texture of its bark, but here we are mainly referring to textures to represent 2D colors and shadows.

Supplement: AI Generative Sky
*Please read and understand the precautions carefully before use.
About AI Generative Sky
By entering text that is reminiscent of the design or image you want to generate, the AI (artificial intelligence) reads and understands the meaning of the text and automatically creates a three-dimensional background image (Sky).
④Select the "Generate" button at the end.
*It may take about 1-2 minutes to generate the background image.
⑤A three-dimensional background image will be generated as shown in the reference image below.
Notes.
*The generated background image (Sky) is not saved, so the previous data will be lost when a new image is created.
*In some rare cases, loading does not proceed during the process of creation.
*When saving or duplicating a world with an automatically generated background image (Sky), it may not be saved correctly, so it is recommended to duplicate the world data before use.
①Select Sky Type
②Enter "Prompt Text
*Enter keywords (words) that are reminiscent of the design or image you wish to generate.
*You can enter multiple keywords by separating them with commas.
*Please enter keywords in "English"
③Enter "Negative Text".
*Enter the keywords for the design you do not want generated.
*This is not a required field.
