RAVEN: Half way through July and the underwater world of raven has come alone leaps n bounds. Started work on the bunk room, the storage room, fixed the chairs in the control room and added a new control panel, ( flashing lights to follow). will change the main screen to a html on a prim when I work that out.
For those that haven,t visited yet there is now a free wetsuit/Flippers/mask/ breather and air tank for FREE on the landing pod in Raven. There is also a pose stand if things need adjusting. The land should be set to build , its not like Im going to run out of prims. Explore the world , if you have ideas love to hear them.. Im a bit of a scatter brain when it comes to design as my tech brain is sitting on top of the art one ( I'll let them fight it out) . Some days I play in script. some I play textures others I will just assemble the range of small builds into some other weird thing, letting the shapes take me where they want.
Some times I will just through a few prims together to try and get an idea to pop out of my head.. its not always successful hence you will find builds from various levels scattered about.. I really like the days when I have a passion and it all comes together, including textures. Some parts are built over a weekend..some in the hour I have for coffee n chat in the morning.
ELECTRON: Improvements have happened here.. the club now has a bar ( cant remember if I mentioned it yet) if you have any bottles or glasses you would like to donate feel free to pop them on the bar . ( there is really only so many of these things you can make before they all start to feel like a cube prim). Streaming of music is happening on a shoutcast channel. When im home n not on skype or building it will be running. I Play indie mixes old and new and a little Mynistry of Sound compolations. feel free to tune in.
The last part required for Electron to make it functional is pose balls and animations. Lynni Aeon has offered to help . But once again if you have something better than the chicken dance or Bogie let me know. Afterall its a community place and everyone is welcome.

EVE: Eve is a alternate landing spot on those odd days when things go wacko. It is set to build and will have a few of my friends pop in to try building in OL from other grids. If you see them Im sure they may be lost.. Please offer them a hand if required ( yeah I know you will its the OL spirit)
Neutron: very much the same as Eve , I have a friend building a castle there as well. ( not my area of build).
Over all I think that Openlife has developed very well given the past couple of months.. some folks have got a tad stroppy ( read angry) about things not being stable. Its very stable compaired to Feburary. I have dropped a few textures , but its free to up load them again. SO , Shouts to Sakai and Monkey for their work in the engine room. Special mention to Kirsten .I have been using the R15 since I recieved a copy and it is very smooth. It still has a few lumps in odd spots but I can not confirm those as it might have been lag, memory, shoutcast or skype all causing those. But TY K.
Lastly shouts to all the wonderful folk that I meet on my tours of OL. If you like it please tell your friends.. Just warn them its lumpy some days , but then so is the other grid.
