I can’t see the tour
Our system is browser based rather than download, meaning we have concentrated our efforts on the most popular browsers. As such we cannot guarantee that older or unsupported browsers will be able to open or operate an Openhouse tour.
If you are clicking on a link and an unsupported browser is being used to open it (such as Internet Explorer if using a PC or Samsung Internet if using a Samsung phone) the tour may not open or operate. If this is the case we advise pasting the link into one of the browsers below.
WINDOWS: CHROME, FIREFOX, EDGE (CHROMIUM VERSION ONLY)
ANDROID: CHROME
MAC OS: SAFARI, CHROME
iOS (iPHONE / iPAD): SAFARI
Due to the memory demands of streaming live video whilst simultaneously manipulating 3D tours, we cannot guarantee that older devices will work in all cases. If your computer or device is not working please try on a newer device.

People can’t see me using the measuring tool
The measuring tool is an overlay that only appears on your screen, and as such other users will not be able to see you using this.
The highlight reel is missing
The highlight reel and guided tour buttons are only available for the host of a meeting (or guest who is logged in to the system). If the host joins on smaller screens this is disabled in order to ensure adequate space on the screen for video.
I can’t log in
The purchase of an Openhouse licence gives one account holder the ability to schedule live meetings, add audio into tours, and set up the Faebook Messenger facility. If someone else uses the same log in credentials whilst another user is logged in, the initial user will be logged.
If you require more than one person to be logged in at the same time you will need to buy a second license.
Ensure you are attempting to log in to https://c3d.live and not https://boost3d.net
My company computer or corporate network is not showing tours properly
This could be due to a number of configuration issues on your corporate network such as firewalls or VPN setup. Contact your sales representative with the details of your IT department and we will liaise with them to rectify.
The banner across the middle says ‘waiting for your host to join’
You may have logged out of the platform, meaning it does not recognise a host being in the room. Simply open a new window, log in then click on your link or in the meetings panel at the bottom of the Openhouse Live tab.
People logging in to Openhouse are showing as me
This has been reported during testing, Openouse sets a cookie so that guests don’t have to set their name each time they have a meeting. It is likely that the guest you are testing with is using a device that you have used previously and this cookie is still set. Ask the guest to either delete cookies and refresh the browser or close the window and open an incognito window.
Mattertag videos are not working
The Boost3d system can initiate a tag on the remote users screen, it cannot deliver remote interaction with the external content contained in a tag. Where you want a user to watch media delivered in a Mattertag, accompany the user to the tag and ask them to start the video. Once the user has watched the video, resume the tour as normal.
