Are files I upload to Enklu Cloud publicly available to anyone?

No. The public asset and script libraries we provide are available to anyone. But any content you upload or create within Enklu Cloud is only available to you and those with whom you specifically share your experiences. You can add others to your experience as collaborators with View or Edit permissions. You can also update or remove these permissions at any time.

What 3D file types are supported?

Currently, Enklu Cloud supports two 3D model formats: '.obj' and .'fbx', though more supported formats are on their way.

Does Enklu Cloud support image assets?

Yes. The image file extensions Enklu Cloud supports are: '.bmp', '.exr', '.gif', '.hdr', '.iff', '.jpg', '.pict', '.png', '.psd', '.pga', '.tiff'. Please note that at this time, your image file extensions must match one of these listed. For example, you can upload a '.tiff' file, but not a '.tif'. To upload a '.tif', you will have to rename the file extension to '.tiff' before attempting to upload it.

What programming language does Enklu Cloud use?

Our scripting interface offers 2 types of scripts: Behavior scripts and Vine scripts. Behavior scripts utilize JavaScript. Vine scripts utilize VineML. VineML is a markup language that strongly correlates to HTML with added features specifically for creating UI elements in AR.

Can users collaborate remotely?

Yes, users can view and share assets remotely and make changes in real-time for all users across all devices.

Are animations supported?

Yes, animated 3D models are supported.

What does Enklu use for multiplayer optimization?

Enklu uses an in-house multiplayer server built on top of Akka.NET. We transfer data in byte buffers and use hashes where needed to slim down our I/O payloads as much as possible. When clients join/reconnect, they receive a delta of everything that has occurred from the initial scene state, so getting the initial game state is also very fast.
