Second Life and Virtual Worlds
The new experience is titled Tyrah & the Curse of the Magical Glytches. (TCMG) The intro video is here…
I think it is way funny.
The announcement is here: Introducing a New Grid-Wide Experience. The announcement tells you how to get started and the rules…
You can have Glytches, the bad guys, on your private parcels. For the ‘how to’ on that see the Official TCMG Wiki page.
Check out the announcement and wiki page to get started collecting and I suppose imprisoning Glytches to save the grid.
Don’t believe in UFO’s? This Second Life™ experience may change your mind. You most certainly will be abducted. To just jump into the experience, follow this link: Alien Abduction. If you search for it in SL Search look for Abducted by Aliens.
I’m not sure what it is about Earth women, but aliens are obsessed with us. That makes Abducted by Aliens a very adult sexual experience. So, while I have made this page SFW, if you jump to any images, they are probably NSFW.
The owner is a long time SL resident named Patrick Playfair. He tells me, “My 13th SL birthday is July 19th, I started in 2004…” He is the current owner of Starbase Magellan, The Abducted by Aliens Experience, The Tunnels of Zandor and the Playfair Ranch (Patrick tells me the Ranch has been replaced but didn’t mention by what ).
I got word of a new game in SL. It is an experience shoot ‘em up type game. You’ll find it at: Games (SLURL).
A unique aspect of the game is each day the top 3 players win L$ cash.
So, now I have a new place to send newbies to get L$ cash.
Seeing Daniel Voyager’s post and pictures of the world map I looked to see if I could see the regions. Then was surprised when I could TP in.
See my previous post: Second Life BREAKING: Horizons.
Today, about noon, the Lindens posted: What’s Happening Now in Second Life. The list is:
A much-needed sandbox is (quoting):
The fifth new region is called: Sandbox Premium Weapons Testing which, as the name suggests, is dedicated to testing your SL munitions! In the past, weapons testing was done in general sandboxes where it was prone to overcrowding, griefing and instability. It was very difficult to get testing done. Now we’ve opened up more space for Premium members to test their combat gear in a less disruptive environment.
The other 4 sandboxes are 3 running RC server packages, one running the main package and they are adjacent to each other. These allow quick testing of items in all 4 versions of the server software running in the main grid.
Second Life Portal Park is an in-world Destination Guide. This is a fun place to wonder around.
LLSit is a new scripting feature I’ve been writing about for the last couple of weeks. It rolled to the main grid last week.
A new post appeared in the SL Blog, 8/2 @ 9:33 AM… hmmmm… See: Recent Second Life Developments – What’s New and What’s Coming!
Project Bento is the first mention. If you have been following you know Project Bento is nearing a point where the viewer can promote to RC status.
