Ok folks,
I figured out the one thing I really needed at that last Thursday Night Live meeting and since it wasn't there I made one.:D
So here's a new freebie for when you want to invite your friends to join you in your own "immersive" scenes sometime, hope you'll have some fun with it like I plan to.;)
The Cob format object is Zipped for download below the image. I'm putting this in the public domain, so have at it, it's yours now.:)
Enjoy,

Hahahahaha....
I think you just may have been out in space a wee bit too long there Spacekdet... recycling isn't for all of us!
A bucket of Virtual Piranha on the other hand could be fun with this.:p

Glad you like it Paul,
In SteveBe's "Torus Knot" thread in the "Gallery" section of the forums here there are several very cool scripted objects he created and made available to us all to download there, one of which is a "WavePool" in two versions, and it could easily be used with this object here to provide real geometry waves in the water of the "truecuzzi" in realtime, whether in trueSpace Workplace or online and offline via truePlay!
The existing waterline is a plane which perfectly fits the opening, but you could replace that with SteveBe's plane and script, flip the normals on the surface to allow the avatars to enter the water instead of walk on it and "voila," you'd have a realtime and truePlay cone cuzzi! :D
Enjoy!

UPDATE: Now you can all actually use this thing together! LOL
Today Frootee kindly showed me how to disable collision for single objects within a scene (like the water object in this jaccuzzi here). I knew there was a way there hiding in trueSpace somewhere to do it but I forgot where it was and he pointed me right to it again and explained how we can all do it.:)
That explanation is in the following thread (be sure to read the whole thread for additional important usage notes):
http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=3957 (http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=3957)
The free "truecuzzi" Shared Space Jaccuzzi Model I made and placed here for upload can be used with this same method now very easily.:cool:
Now you can download the Public Domain virtual jaccuzzi in the first post here and apply this method to the water surface object, and that will allow a realtime Avatar to actually pass through the water surface as though it were real.
When I designed that model above I had that intent originally so the water surface is in fact a separate object from the jaccuzzi basin, and the jaccuzzi basin is intentionally designed to provide the right depth for realtime Avatars to stand in it with the water level at exactly the right depth (just as the render above shows). I had just forgotten where the place was in trueSpace for disabling collision on that water surface object, but now we have it.
Try not to drown folks!:D
