Places of Interest: Xeniversity

I hope everyone had a goode Christmas, sadly no one loved me enough to get me a X-Box 360 so I could play Final Fantasy XI again.


I decided to start a new series of post about places of interest that I have found (or have been shown to me) in Second Life.


To start off here is Xeniversity. (Link takes you to a location on there world map of Second Life click to teleport to location, you will need a Second Life account.)

Xeniversity is a multi function sim. It serves as a store for their sculpt maps and other objects, it provides links and sign up options for talking classes for Maya (I wish I had), it has an in world class room and it has a sandbox.

There are two things that really impress me and make this sim stand out from the others. First the textures, here they aren't photos that have been made into textures. They are more cartoony and are almost all solid colors with shadows on them. 

Second the buildings are made of blocks in a very unique way where they take advantage of the fact the Second Life isn't like the real world. The real world rules of building don't apply here and avatars have to fly to place to place on this sim.

Here I am standing next to a model of the building I'm standing on.

Ninjas of Bountiful

Long time no post but here is something I've been working on. Loki and I started a group is SL called Ninjas of Bountiful. It's just a group of ninja loving SL-ers that like ninjas, it's a place to hang out, talk ninja and showoff cool new toys and HUDs.

Once I have the clubhouse done I'll give the address for it. Maybe I'll post videos of some of the cool HUDs in use too.
