Configuring a Viewer
If you are wanting to come to Island Oasis but have never been you will need to download a viewer to log in and access the virtual world. We have 3 options of pre-configured viewers so that you do not have to manually configure a viewer. If you happen to already have a viewer and prefer that particular one you may try to configuring the viewer to access the virtual world of Island Oasis. We cannot guarantee how other viewers outside of our 3 recommendations on our downloads page may interact with our virtual world, but feel free to try it. Please see our downloads page which provided the links to the pre-configured viewers.
Feedback we have received from existing residents has let us know that many other viewers can be used to access our virtual world. If you are wanting to try to access IO with a different viewer open your viewer and click the "Grids" button when you start the viewer and select our grid from the existing grid list if it is there. Some viewers have been gracious enough to include our grid on their default list. We thank them greatly! If you are unfortunate enough to have a viewer that doesn't already have Island Oasis on the default grid list then you can simply choose another viewer that does have us listed or you will you will have to manually add Island Oasis to the viewer.
