Custom textures
The simplest way to customize Twinity is just to exchange textures on frames, walls, objects or clothes. Take a JPEG
picture with your camera, place it on a t-shirt, frame or wall and show it to your friends. It's as easy as that.
Have a look at the custom texture guide for more details.

Uploading Collada models
Twinity uses Collada as 3d model and animation format. You can export Collada models with
all popular 3d modelling tools such as Google SketchUp,
Blender, Autodesk 3ds Max and Autodesk Maya.
Collada models following the Twinity rules and restrictions can be directly uploaded to Twinity, using the in game upload tool.

Creating models with special functions
If you like to add special functions to your Collada model (e.g. create a radio model that can play sounds, or a chair
avatars can sit on), you need to add a little description file, called Twml file.
With Twml you can add interesting properties to your object. See here for a simple frame example. Twml files can be directly uploaded to Twinity with the in game upload tool.
