Cheeper and easier then SL?
16 years ago
General
I have come to eat your soul.
Yes you read the journal right, there is a place that is like SL, but is cheeper and easier then SL in the long run. Here are some perks they have over SL.
1) Its cheaper, losts/land costs less then you think.
2) Land is bigger lots, you can build up to 10K in the air.
3) The areas are themed
4) Lots of space between lots. So there is no feeling of being crowded.
5) All the spaces are water side, which offers everyone a good view of everything.
6) Mature and General areas are kept seperate, so there isn't a way for one to get in to a mature area, or even walk in to one.
7) Artists rights are strictly enforced, this means no one is going to copy your scripts, or steal a idea created by you.
Also for you SL developers out there here is something else.
This place just started to you can get on the ground floor of something new.
So if you want ot be the first to offer a service, or just build a area to your own specs, a little better then what SL offers, then check out...

Typhon
~typhon
OP
Yes and if you have full ownership you can port them over, that means full copy, mod and transfer permissions. Feel free to look up Typhon Plume there.

Well so long as you have full ownership of it you should be able to do it, but I think SL charges a fee for that...

is this something i have to dl to my pc?
Typhon

OP
Saddly just like the SL client it does have to be downloaded to your PC, but just the client. Actual textures and such are stored on server, and only downloaded to a temporary cache when needed.

:( i won't be able to then. My computer is very old and has very little for memory. I ahve to keep it pretty bare bones. The fact that i have yim, firefox, and paintshop pro takes up pretty much most of my resources. [save for what is running for processors] :(

Actually, anyone can sign up for free to use an acount on 2nd life. Just buying stuff costs money :P

It is free, unless you want to go in to a mature area.

i'm afraid this journal is very wrong. this program IS second life, just a different grid. it appears to be using outdated sim applications, and may still be running havok2.0 physics. [if even that] it's terribly laggy, animations dont sync well, i could go on, but thats all i think i need to say. sorry, it just doesnt live up to SL. which is free. and, just as easy as this since its the same client.
