In Nixa today

Everything you need to chat, read and party in comfort.

These features are in the version you download today.

Arabic everywhere

Type Arabic straight in. Letters join as you type, and paragraphs start on the right in the chat bar, IMs and notecards.

  • The cursor and selection sit on the right letters, and the arrow keys go the right way.
  • No red spell-check lines under Arabic words.
  • A clear Arabic font built in, with a proper لا.

The gold ع button, and ع⇄

The gold ع button on the bottom toolbar turns Arabic on or off in one click (or Ctrl+Alt+A). Friend on a viewer without Arabic? Turn on ع⇄ next to the chat box: your Arabic is sent pre-joined, so everyone can read it.

  • Choose ع⇄ for each chat on its own.

All Arabic options in one place

Preferences → Arabic: line up paragraphs on the right, let spell check skip Arabic, and make new chats readable on every viewer.

Featured

Emoji, right next to your Arabic

The smiley button in nearby chat and in every IM opens Choose Emoji: categories, your most used, and search as you type. Or type : and a word, like :heart, and pick from the suggestions.

  • Emoji show correctly inside Arabic lines and in names.
  • The small arrow next to the button shows your recently used emoji.
  • Typing a time like 10:30 does not open suggestions.

23 themes, or your own colours

Calm dark themes, mid tones and light ones. Open the theme gallery to see them all, or pick two colours and make your own. Every theme is checked so text stays easy to read.

  • Interface size and text size in Preferences → Appearance.

Nearby strip

Everyone on the land you are on, nearest first, in a small strip that stays on screen. No HUD, no clicks.

  • Small icons: coming toward you, flying, or running many scripts.
  • Mark someone with a colour and a chime: a soft note when they arrive.
  • Make the background as see-through as you like; names stay solid.

Lag Fix

A small dot in the Nearby strip: green, yellow or red. Click it to see where the lag comes from: your PC, your connection, a crowded region, or something that looks like an attack, and which objects.

  • Hide, block or report suspects in one click, with Undo.
  • Optional auto protection: Shield, Heavy shield, and Escape to your Safe spot if your PC is about to freeze (off until you save a Safe spot).
  • After a freeze: log in at your Safe spot instead of the same busy place.

Mode: less lag in busy places

The Mode button on the bottom toolbar: Normal, Party, Max, Crash Attack. One click turns down what is heavy, one click brings your own settings back. It stays on when you teleport.

  • In Crash Attack your friends stay visible; strangers are drawn simple.
