Open a Local Project
The Open Panel enables you to browse your projects that are already in progress.
A copy of your active projects will always reside in:
● Users ➞ [username] ➞ Documents ➞ IMVU Projects.
● On Mac:
● On Windows:
However, you can save your projects wherever you want.
Depending on the version of your Operating System (Mac or Windows), your active projects could reside in:
- Documents and Settings ➞ [username] ➞ My Documents ➞ IMVU Projects
When you click on the Open a Local Project button, your “IMVU Projects” folder will open.
CHKN is the default Create Mode file type. To open a project, you have to click on a file with this format. (If you have old products that you made using IMVU’s old creation tools, the file type is CFL).
After selecting a CHKN file, if you click Open, the Editor will open.
You can also Open a Local Project by pressing Shift + Ctrl + o.
