A high-end room, for high-end IMVU enthusiasts, this is an ENORMOUS room, one of the very largest on IMVU. For people who need a breath of fresh air and feel claustrophobic in normal sized IMVU rooms. This room is big enough to go flying in! It's big enough for my Marine Slalom Course, and this is the place to take your cars out for a spin. IMVU's premier driving experience. Completely re-textured from the ground up, this room contains 2 animated driving routes on which car "furniture" can be placed. Both routes operate simultaneously, meaning you can have 2 cars driving at once. Contains 2 bridges, a tunnel, a river, vast coastline, an observation tower, forests, fields, and a beautiful ethereal dawn/dusk ambient atmosphere. There is a tremendous sense of distance and depth due to the atmospheric effects. Clouds slowly float by, and the ocean and river have realistic surface animation. This room is ideal for sailing, farming, and horse stud activities as well. You can also set it up as your family country estate with plenty of room for several houses. Whatever you decide to do with this room, it offers tremendous potential. :) There is now an ambient sound effects enhancer module for this room, as well as a shadow module for all the trees.

Panoramic view of the entire room. It is absolutely huge!

Drive Europe 01
Breathtaking views! Incredibly realistic.

Start Point 01D

This is the location of the first driving spot. It is a furniture node near a T intersection on the coast, toward the left side of the room when looking at the panorama scene at the top of this page. The road that the spot is on goes toward a tunnel. There are 2 avatar stand spots diagonally opposite the spot. First, orient your camera view to match the illustrations shown below. Then, look for the second kink in the road. Snap your avatar to one of the stand spots, then introduce a car and snap-move it to the correct spot. Do not rotate the car before moving it. Do not use the "cntrl" or "shift" keys to move the car onto the spot, you must use the mouse only. If you have found the correct spot, the car will automatically orient to the correct direction. Once the car is in place, jump in and type "drive1". Off you go! :) The car will move perpetually until you type "stop1" after which the car will immediately snap back to the beginning and remain stationary. Other options are "driveslow1" (which goes for 1 lap); and "drivefast1" (good for 3 laps) which makes the car go twice the standard speed (good for sports and racing cars). :) Type "tour1" to drive just 1 lap of this course at standard speed. Note that typing "stop1" will render all triggers except "drive1" inoperative until the room is closed and reopened.

This is the location of the second driving spot. It is a furniture node on a crossroad near the mouth of another tunnel, toward the back-centre of the room when looking at the panorama scene at the top of this page. The road that the node is on goes toward the second tunnel. There is an avatar stand spot right next to the node, on the right hand corner of the crossroad. Snap your avatar to this stand spot, then introduce a car and snap-move it to the correct location. Do not rotate the car before moving it. Do not use the "cntrl" or "shift" keys to move the car onto the spot, you must use the mouse only. If you have found the correct spot, the car will automatically orient to the correct direction. Normally if you are standing in the correct place, simply choosing a car from your furniture list will automatically make the car snap to the correct location. Once the car is in place, jump in and type "drive2". Off you go! :) The car will move perpetualy until you type "stop2", after which the car will immediately snap back to the beginning and remain stationary. You can also type "driveslow2" for a more leisurely pace (good for 2 laps); and "drivefast2" (good for 4 laps) which makes the car go twice the standard speed, (good for sports and racing cars). :) Type "tour2" to drive just 1 lap of this course at standard speed. Note that typing "stop2" will render all triggers except "drive2" inoperative until the room is closed and reopened.

There is enough flat space in here for a farm, a horse stud, a ranch, a country estate, even an airport!
