Metaplace on desktop: MP in Titanium
Andrew Woolridge has gotten the Metaplace client embed up and running inside of Titanium, which means that you can now grab a downloadable Metaplace client for Windows, Mac, or Linux: MetaTanium.
In his own words:
Titanium is a kinda open source alternative to Adobe AIR that I’ve been toying around with. As soon at the ability to embed Metaplace worlds was announced I wanted to combine two of my passions into one:
MetaTanium lets you choose a world to run as a desktop app. You can even run it fullscreen!
It’s in an alpha state, but please give me feedback and feature ideas.
I am guessing he wants the ideas posted in the forum thread on the Metaplace site. 🙂
I’ll have to give it a try.
Oooh, a way to run Metaplace without locking Firefox at 100% CPU!
But having said that, I just tried to make it work… and couldn’t. I’ll poke around with it some more.
Seb, we capped the CPU usage of the client a while ago. Does it still max your CPU?
