[ODE] Walking Viewer

[Tony Peguero]

Hi.
You might consider switching to a different engine for your viewer. I know
that there are people using the Torque Engine for exactly the sort of
application you've described, as it already has walking physics and
multi-user built in. It's very cheap (US$100 per developer) and very well
supported.
