Community World Tour 🗓️ Date & Time: Tuesday, May 12th @ 5:00 PM PT Host: MKE_TheGuru There’s a vibrant community of creators rooting for your work. In this session, MKE_TheGuru spotlights recently published worlds and gives the creators behind them a chance to speak to their builds in real time. Join from mobile, drop in your questions, and get an inside look at what your fellow creators are working on. 🤖 Do More of What You Love: Practical AI for Every Role 🗓️ Date & Time: Thursday, May 14th @ 11:00 AM PT Host: MikeyAce This session will teach you the best ways to use AI to clear the tedious work that’s slowing you down. Whether your focus is on designing/producing, blocking out storyboards, or fixing bugs, MikeyAce uncovers the role-specific workflows you can apply right away to make AI your superpower. 🎥 Can’t make it live? Catch the full session on MHCP’s official YouTube channel .🎥 How AI Agents Work: Context Windows, Subagents & Tips
In this deep dive, Shards632 breaks down the architecture behind modern AI agents (like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini)—from token embeddings to attention heads to perceptrons. More importantly, you'll learn why your AI loses track after long conversations and the exact strategies Shards632 uses to fix it: context window management, subagents, skills, hooks, and MCP servers. Whether you're coding, building in Horizon Worlds, or just trying to get better outputs, this is the knowledge you need.
🎥 No Coding Required: Build Whole Worlds with AI
Can you build and fix a Horizon Worlds project without writing a single line of code? In this MHCP Feature Detective session, mentors Ashes2Ashes2, MKE_TheGuru, and SeeingBlue dive into AI-assisted world building using VS Code and GitHub Copilot. Starting from the Shovel Up template, they set up an AI agent, troubleshoot a broken tutorial in real time, and prompt gameplay changes all without manually touching the code. 🔧 What you'll learn: • How to initialize your AI agent with a custom Horizon prompt file • Using AI to analyze, troubleshoot, and fix project issues • Prompting gameplay changes (like a 75% chance of launching into the air while digging!) • Understanding AI's current limitations in the Desktop Editor • Using AI to learn and understand an unfamiliar project's structure
🎥 AI Copilot Scripting: Script Faster with AI
Stop rewriting the same scripts from scratch and let your AI co-pilot do the heavy lifting. In this session, SeeingBlue breaks down the advanced AI scripting techniques. From custom agents and prompt files that generate full Horizon Worlds weapon systems with a single slash command, to MCP servers that let your AI pull context straight from GitHub. This is the workflow upgrade you didn't know you needed. Whether you're still on code blocks or already building in TypeScript, you'll walk away with a toolkit of techniques you can apply to your projects today.
Gen AI is cut off from the server and can't create scripts anymore?!
One of my biggest pet peeves in life is when something that should work, doesn't. And the fact that we were give Gen AI in Worlds Desktop Editor to "assist creators" and then the Gen AI (btw, goes by the name Orion for some strange reason but if that's what it says its name is, it is what it is *shrugs*) suddenly tells you that it's been cut off from "the server" and can no longer generate anything is very disappointing. So now I'm stuck and unable to finish a very complex VR experience that I've been working on for months is absolutely ridiculous and quite frankly downright flawed tech from a corporation that should have their you know what together. Here's the conversation in a nutshell that has me PO'ed beyond imagination: Orion: I will start by modifying the script. Orion: It seems there was an issue modifying the script. I'll try a different approach to add the timeout feature for players who leave the blackjack area. Orion: I will now attempt to generate the updated script. Orion: It seems like there's a persistent issue with modifying the main blackjack script directly. I'll try a more robust, separated approach to avoid this problem. Orion: <response> I am so sorry, but it appears there is a fundamental issue with the scripting system on my end that is preventing me from creating or modifying any scripts for you right now, even simple ones. I have tried several different methods, and they are all failing with the same server error. Orion: This is a problem with my tools, not your request. I apologize for this frustrating experience. Orion: Until this is resolved, I cannot fulfill requests that require creating or changing scripts. I can still help with other tasks like finding assets or providing instructions for things you can build manually. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with that doesn't involve scripting. Orion: Until this is resolved, I cannot fulfill requests that require creating or changing scripts. I can still help with other tasks like finding assets or providing instructions for things you can build manually. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with that doesn't involve scripting. Now here's the kicker. I figure I go to one of my other worlds a try to get assistance with an entirely different script project, a low and behold, no problems getting to the server. So why the heck is this so called server issue only a problem with one particular world?! That means the problem is purposefully selective. Now my conspiracy thinking is wondering if it was cut off from helping me for a reason? Stay tuned creators, the problem is supposedly being investigated, but I have a funny feeling I'm not gonna like the reasons and that this problem is going to be permanent. I'll keep you all posted.🎥 Build Your First Noesis UI Using AI | Build-Along
Good context is the difference between a working UI and a wasted afternoon. In this Build-Along, MHCP mentor SeeingBlue walks you through feeding Copilot the right reference files and one-shotting a Noesis admin panel with live player data. From there, he layers on tabbed views and voice controls with follow-up prompts and covers how to tackle console debugging when things go sideways. 💡 By watching this video, you will learn: How to gather and organize Noesis XAML examples and TypeScript scripts as context for your AI coding agent How to generate and refine Copilot agent instructions for Noesis-specific development How to use research prompts to help your AI agent understand XAML bindings before building How to test, debug, and iterate on AI-generated Noesis UI code using console feedback
New Generation Creator Lounge
Hi everyone! I’m creating a new world where HW creators can meet up and chat. I know there were spaces like this during the codeblock era, and after talking to people in forums and VR, it seems the community really wants a hub like that again. I’m also starting a YouTube channel to document my journey learning HW skills, including how I'm building this specific world. I want to show a realistic, grounded approach so beginners feel encouraged to start. The world will be a place for us to connect and share our creative process with people who are genuinely curious. P.S. This is meant to be a community project! If you are interested in building this with me, let's work together. Reply here, DM me, or find me in HW (please send a message so I know you aren't just following randomly!). Here's my Youtube channel link: https://www.youtube.com/@EasymodeHorizon
