The present disclosure is directed to improved techniques for real-time collaborative editing in a 3D authoring system. In an exemplary embodiment, collaborative editing involves (i) loading 3D resources as virtual files in memory of a host device (ii) establishing a communication session between the host device and a client device (iii) mirroring to the client device a copy of the set of virtual files; and (iv) receiving from the client device a change to one of the virtual files in the mirrored copy at the time it happens and automatically updating the corresponding virtual file in the host device to facilitate real-time collaborative editing. |
