This document provides several guides that can be used to setting up the Project scene in Playcanvas editor before publishing onto VIVERSE Create.
To create a spawn point, right-click on the Root object and select New Entity > Entity. This entity will serve as the initial location where user avatars spawn or respawn. Please make sure your spawn point is above “ground”, to prevent the avatars from falling through the map.
Make sure to disable any camera/character control entity in the scene. As it might conflict with VIVERSE avatar system.
This tutorial guides you through the process of creating floor plan for for you avatar to land and walk on.
