It seems far more likely that the reverse will occur, and Will Wright will be able to add far more complexity to Second Life in a way that was not possible in games like Sim City and The Sims. Will Wright is a cornerstone of the video games...
For the extra 100 dollars over the same size land on mainland, estate land owners get full control over their regions, and do not need to involve the Lab for things like restarting and debugging their sims.
Expect to see a LOT of sims under construction as they switch over to more custom sized large scale prims in order to lower their prim usage and make room for other things. Here, in IM, in email. People sure do have a lot of questions about mesh.
But since the userbase is strongly divided on who can see them at all, some sim owners are choosing to ban mesh from their sims, rather than run the risk of people seeing things improperly. While other ongoing stories are still.ongoing, four weeks...
In addition, because mainland sims tend to be adjacent, attacks can easily carry over from one sim to another. In keeping with the tradition of "skip a week and all hell breaks loose", here we go again.
The new search system (GSA 6) bypassed sims entirely. Sometimes the news is slow, and sometimes it comes in an avalanche. This past week or so has seen a whole lot of new and interesting things happen in relation to Second Life.
The billing issues are known by the Lab, but frustrations have become so great that at least one large group with a number of sims have decided to close up shop and head elsewhere. Other objections have been raised about how this type of...
In fact, I couldn't think of any, until I was told (and rightly so) that, for example, this would solve issues of delivery and communications failure in the case of a sim crash, and would also reduce script load and potential lag on the sims where...
But some RedZone supporters are saying something else, that this device does what the Lab *refuses* to do: give them greater control over their sims. It is true that for most people, the tools already provided by the Lab are entirely sufficient to...
With an interface that evokes the video game "The Sims," Cyworld has over 20 million users in Korea and is the most popular social networking site in the country. Social media networking sites continue to be one of the hottest commodities in the...
When sims are adjacent, you can see from one to the other, assuming your graphics settings are adjusted properly. Combined with the potential to manipulate scripted objects, it's not hard to see why this could be an issue for businesses on sims...
How does this apply to combat sims, can you provide examples of what would be allowed? Combat sims are mature, think R rated movie. A few weeks ago, my friend Mickey said (via twitter) 'wish LL would just drop banner ad on mismatch & eharm...
Sometimes there may even be sims, (in world locations), where players meet up in person to play together and socialise. In theory all of these games can be social, but just how do you get social through a game?
It reminds me a bit of the Sims in rabbit form. Or the bunnies. Possibly, the vampire bunnies. At least that's what it looks like Linden Lab is banking on. What's more, they may be right. I read a lot of SL related blogs, and I wish I could...
In the case of sexual roleplay, such as BDSM or those which take place on some of the roleplay sims, no one will be physically harmed. Virtual worlds fill the gaps our real lives leave behind. Now, before everyone grabs their pitchforks and torches...
The Sims Several search engines compiled the top searches in several categories for 2008, offering a glimpse into what was top of mind for searchers. Recaps from Google Zeitgeist; Yahoo Buzz; AOL's hot searches; top search terms at Ask.com; and...
The Sims A handful of search engines compiled the top searches for the year in several categories. Recaps from Google, Yahoo, AOL, Ask, and Lycos highlight the trends that came and went over the course of 2007.
