If the Sine Wave Shop is enabled in your World, you can purchase virtual items using either Silver or Gold currency. These components can then be added to your avatar using the Outfit window. With our huge selection of clothing and accessories—everything from business suits to fairy wings to nail polish—you can truly make your virtual stand-in stand out.
The Sine Wave Shop also contains a wide selection of vehicles, furniture items, gestures, and other tools. If you have the correct user permissions, you can add these items to Regions using the Region Editor.
World Owners and World Administrators can enable and disable parts of the UI via the Dashboard. You may not have access to every function described in this section.
Breakroom offers two types of in-world currency: Silver and Gold.
Silver is Breakroom's in-world promotional currency, and cannot be exchanged for legal tender. Each user will receive a gift of Silver upon joining Breakroom. Additional Silver can be earned by completing quests and engaging in other activities.
Gold is a premium currency that can be purchased (and in limited cases, exchanged) for legal tender. Some Sine Wave Shop items can only be purchased with Gold currency.
If your Breakroom World permits users to take advantage of Gold currency, you can replenish your wallet by clicking the Buy button in the top toolbar. Breakroom accepts payment via credit card and PayPal.
You can open the Sine Wave Shop by clicking the Shop button located in the bottom toolbar, or by pressing Ctrl + S on your keyboard.
Along the top edge of the Sine Wave Shop window, you'll see several category tabs. Click these to explore the different types of content that Breakroom offers for purchase. You'll find tabs devoted to Clothing, Vehicles, Furniture, and more.
When you click on a category tab, you'll see a subcategory menu appear in the left corner of the Sine Wave Shop window. Use this to refine your search even further.
Each category tab includes a search field. When searching within the Clothes category, you can also specify whether you want to see items intended for masculine avatars, items intended for feminine avatars, or both.
When you find a clothing item that you want to learn more about (such as the shirt pictured above), click on the item image in the Sine Wave Shop window. If the item is compatible with your current avatar, you'll be given a chance to "try on" the item in real time.
In order for the preview window to work, the preview item must be compatible with your current avatar. If you are wearing an animal avatar, for example, you will not be given the option to preview human clothing. Likewise, if you are wearing a feminine avatar, you may not be given the option to preview clothing or shoes designed for masculine avatars.
Your avatar will appear in the preview window wearing the chosen clothing item. You'll see the cost in Silver and Gold currency listed, as well as the item's review score and its creator. Scrolling down will reveal item variations, if available.
You can use the camera controls located in the bottom right corner to inspect your avatar from all angles.
Legs/feet zoom button
Camera will focus on the avatar's feet.
Body zoom button
Camera will focus on the avatar's body.
Head zoom button
Camera will focus on the avatar's head/face.

Once you're satisfied with the way the item looks, you can purchase it directly by clicking the Buy button. You will be asked to confirm your purchase. If the item is an article of clothing, you'll be given the option to wear the item immediately or file it away in your Inventory.
If you prefer, you can add the item to your shopping cart by clicking the Add To Cart button. Once you're ready to check out, you can click the Cart button in the top right corner of the Sine Wave Shop window, or click the shopping cart icon in your top toolbar. Both will take you to the same checkout window, where you can review your shopping cart, change the type of currency you want to spend (if applicable), and finalize your purchase.
Some items come packaged in bundles. Bundles can contain multiple items, and will need to be unpacked before you can access their contents.
To open a newly purchased bundle, follow these steps.
Click the Inventory button located in the bottom toolbar. This will launch the Inventory window.
In the Inventory window, locate the bundle you want to open and click on it. In the action menu that appears, click the Use button.
A second window will appear, containing information about the items inside the bundle. Click the Get button at the bottom of this second window. This will extract the items into your Inventory.
