  • **BASE

  • **CLEAN_START

  • **LANGUAGE_CLEAN_START

  • **LANGUAGE_TAMAN

  • **TAMAN_FESTIVAL

  • **UNIVERSAL_SKIN

  • *360_VIDEO_PROJECTS

  • OUTPUT_BASE

  • *OUTPUT_CLEAN_START

  • *OUTPUT_TAMAN_FESTIVAL

  • *TO_UPLOAD_BASE_CLEAN_START

  • **TO_UPLOAD_TAMAN

 
 

**BASE:

This folder contains *BASE_EN and *BASE_EN_DEMO (.p2vr) files. The *BASE_EN file is the primary project file for creating the Virtual Tours.

**CLEAN_START:

This folder contains a CLEAN_START (.p2vr) file that combines the *BASE_EN and *BASE_EN_DEMO p2vr files.

**LANGUAGE_CLEAN_START:

Language translations PoEdit files for the Clean Start project are saved here.

**LANGUAGE_TAMAN:

Language translations PoEdit files for the Taman Festival project are saved here.

**TAMAN_FESTIVAL:

This folder contains a project called Taman Festival. It is a virtual tour of an abandoned amusement park in Bali. This project will be used in posts covering the Fixed buttons, floorplan-map button, and SVG map features.

**UNIVERSAL_SKIN:

All the projects we create in Base, Clean Start, and Taman Festival use the same base skin, UNIVERSAL_SKIN (.ggsk), with the default font family Montserrat.

UNIVERSAL_SKIN_FONTBASE (.ggsk) is a version of the UNIVERSAL_SKIN (.ggsk) without any font CSS or Local Fonts assigned to it to make it easier when a new font-family is required.

*360_VIDEO_PROJECTS:

This folder contains a project 360_VIDEO (.p2vr), a skin 360_VIDEO (.ggsk), a 360 Assets folder and an output folder balloon_over_bagan.

These elements provide the content for 360˚ Video hotspot elements, as shown in the BASE_EN_DEMO project.

*ASSETS: CLEAN_START/DEMO/GENERAL/TAMAN

Everything from audio files to fonts, logos, and maps is here. These assets are used primarily in the Hotspot Popups, but some will be used in other skin elements as we progress through the tutorial.

*OUTPUT: BASE/CLEAN_START/TAMAN_FESTIVAL

This is the output folder used in the Base, Clean_Start and Taman_Festival Projects.

*TO_UPLOAD: BASE_CLEAN_START/TAMAN

The contents of this folder are loaded into the Assets/Files or Folders in the Properties - Web Output/Advanced section,

The next post, BASE PROJECT, describes how to start a new Virtual Tour Project using the *BASE_EN (.p2vr) and *BASE_EN_DEMO (.p2vr) project files.
