AGISim will run under Windows but it takes some (lots of) effort. You also need to use the right versions of the dependant software otherwise you have no chance! It is currently a bit of a black art at the moment. I plan on spending some time over this coming month in bringing AGISim upto date so it is 'easier' to get running under windows. I'll post when I have something available.

I also wrote a bot for World of Warcraft, though I dont believe the environment is rich enough for full interactions needed by an AGI. Once you could get to a level of telling the AGI to do something like "Fill up that bucket full of water", having it respond with ? Dont know how, please show me, and then being able to use your character to specificially show it how to do tasks, you would be in a good position to have a teachable robot that could then generalize on these tasks to learn how to do many different things.

A VR interface would certainly be nice, but it takes a lot of time to build one and I'm not good at that area. Maybe Ben's AGI-Sim can be used by another AGI? If so we can save a lot of efforts.
