ZED HQ is the official headquarters of ZED RUN, located in Vegas City, Decentraland. The coordinates for ZED HQ are -135, 93.
Decentraland is a virtual reality 3D ecosystem hosted on the Ethereum network where users can freely explore, engage with others, and if they choose, purchase plots of LAND to build upon. The LAND is represented by a non-fungible token that exists on a virtual map.
The coordinates for ZED HQ are -135, 93. There are a couple of ways to get to ZED HQ once you’re in Decentraland:
• Click the ‘Explore and Play’ button in the bottom right hand corner of the screen, then navigate to ZED RUN HQ and click ‘jump in.’
• Open up the map in the top left and navigate to the coordinates manually with your mouse. ZED HQ is located in Vegas City, which is the top left corner of the DCL map.
No! DCL is totally free to join and explore. You don't need to spend any money to participate on the Decentraland platform. However, to ensure you gain access to all the benefits of attending events at ZED HQ, you will need a wallet.
MetaMask is a digital wallet that can be used to create your ZED RUN stable and enables you to access experience in ZED HQ at DCL.
The MetaMask wallet is a plugin extension that lives within your web browser which can interact with the blockchain. Download the Metamask extension for your favourite browser here.
Here is a good visual tutorial to follow.
Unfortunately, no. As of now, the DCL platform is web-based only.
To create an avatar in Decentraland, visit https://decentraland.org/ Click ‘Get Started’ and then select ‘Play using your wallet’ to ensure you gain access to all the benefits of attending events at ZED HQ. You can choose your appearance and outfit, before jumping into Decentraland.
For the full ZED HQ experience in Decentraland, we advise you to create your own MetaMask wallet which is supported through our platform. This allows you to claim things like POAPs and free wearables, and purchase additional in-game items too. Note: If you choose to ‘Play as Guest’ you will not gain access to all the benefits or experiences at ZED HQ.
Wearables in DCL are exactly what they sound like: things you can wear! When you create an avatar, you’ll have some standard choices to select from. You can collect additional items, some rare, exclusive, and super-valuable. Wearables can be purchased from within ZED HQ or directly from the DCL Marketplace.
When you create your avatar, you’ll be given a selection of wearables to choose from. Each avatar comes with a set of free wearables. You can mix and match from the free options to show off your own style. To change your outfit:
• Click the icon in the top right hand corner of the screen that shows your avatar’s face
• Click the backpack icon.
• Choose the wearable.
Note: if your mouse is moving your camera around, rather than navigating around the screen, press the ‘Escape’ key.
Wearables can be purchased from within ZED HQ or directly from the Decentraland Marketplace. When at ZED HQ, you can view the wearables and shop from our stores. When shopping from the Decentraland Marketplace:
• Click the icon in the top right hand corner of the screen that shows your avatar’s face
• Click the backpack icon. Next, select the ‘collectibles’ tab and then click ‘marketplace’
• Find some wearables you like and choose your outfit to purchase!
The in-game currency for Decentraland is MANA. The wearables use Polygon MANA. For more information, visit: https://decentraland.org/blog/announcements/polygon-mana/

• Press the ‘B’ key on your keyboard
• Select the relevant Emote using your mouse or the corresponding number

Yes! At the bottom of the screen, you will see a chat bubble that will allow you to communicate with those in your general vicinity. There is also a voice option available.
A POAP, short for Proof of Attendance Protocol, is a digital badge given as a token at special events for attendees. These tokens provide a way to prove you attended one of our ZED RUN HQ events. You can collect your POAP from one of the POAP machines located inside ZED HQ.
You can download the POAP mobile app: https://poap.xyz/ and enter your wallet address. Your POAPs will automatically appear in your collection.
