XANA App

Key Highlights

  • Dynamic Memory Allocation: The app now automatically allocates memory based on the user’s device RAM, optimizing quality settings for a more responsive user experience.
  • Improved Avatar Clothing Load: Updates to the avatar clothing system allow selected clothing items to be saved to the user’s device memory, reducing load times and improving visual consistency across sessions.
  • Enhanced Minimap: A new dynamic minimap feature displays real-time player locations. While previous versions used static images, the updated map is more interactive, though slight quality adjustments are still being optimized.

NFTDUEL

Key Highlights

  • Real-Time Bug Fixes: The team focused on resolving real-time issues as reported by users, ensuring gameplay stability and responsiveness.
  • Crafting Feature Preparation: Backend requirements for an upcoming crafting functionality are under discussion. Once the backend setup is complete, front-end development will begin, introducing a new crafting feature for players.
  • Telegram Login: Preparation for integrating Telegram login into the NFTDUEL platform is underway, set to streamline the user authentication process in line with other XANA modules.

XANA Browser

Key Highlights

  • Feature Synchronization with XANA App: The browser is being updated to reflect recent XANA App features, particularly those related to the Summit, ensuring consistency across platforms.
  • Video Streaming Optimization: Improvements to video functionality aim to resolve discrepancies between mobile and WebGL environments, where YouTube often flags browser-based access as bot activity. Further refinements are in progress to ensure smooth video playability.

  • Theme-Based Filters: New theme-based filters (e.g., Cyberpunk, Western, Modern) allow users to streamline asset selection, enhancing customization for world creation.
  • Physics-Based Gameplay Elements: Updates to in-game physics have been introduced, including improved interaction between characters and objects. For instance, high-speed collisions now result in objects like penguins being knocked out of the game, adding an engaging interactive element.
  • Asset Usage Analytics: Real-time tracking of asset usage enables the team to monitor and analyze which assets are most popular, guiding updates and replacements for underutilized items in the library.
  • Asset Standardization: Work continues on asset standardization to improve the quality and consistency of available assets, which is scheduled for priority in the coming week.
