You can now host video meetings within your 3D scenes created with Shapespark. The key features include:
See where other participants are and what they look at.
Share your camera and microphone.
Use a pointer to direct participants attention to a particular place.
Share material picker choices with all participants.
The meetings are available in the Standard and Plus subscription plans and for the perpetual license owners with active hosting. For details see the pricing tables and FAQ sections here: Subscription plans | Shapespark and here: Perpetual license | Shapespark
Thank you to all of you who tested the meetings and provided feedback during a preview. We still have a lot of polishing and improvements to do. For example, soon you will be able to select textures in the scene on which participants will be able to share their screens during a meeting.
Ok the response from the clients has been decent so far. I’m actually confident we can make this feature work on trade fairs as it is - as long as we only add it to meeting room or showroom scenes that are accessible through the fair scene.
What we need is to have the ability to track meeting minutes used by a given scene. Atm only the total is showing. That way we could also charge them based on the number used.
Did a browser show you a popup asking for permission to share your camera? If you accidentally permanently refuse this permission to a website, it is hard to revert this setting.
You have given us this notice, but it is also necessary to register visitors who have less experience with Shapespark.
Is it possible to register before opening the presentation?
@Vladan, I am not sure I understand you correctly. What do you mean by registering before opening the presentation?
We don’t have such a video. If you would like to try it on your own, please enter the example meeting from this forum post: Preview: meetings in Shapespark scenes
If the 11th visitor appears, I would like you to suggest him to enter the presentation (instead of the error message) to wait in line for a meeting there, instead of leaving the presentation and the meeting.
It is not visible in the editor, and it is not possible to fine-tune the position of the Trigger (sphere / sprite) for the Meeting projection screen. It can be seen at the Meeting.
