First Hand Reports From TSL

Wild West Sim

The Wild West Sim that I mentioned before is, as far as I can tell, complete. I started out working on the project, but I had to stop because of school and other things. However, it looks like everyone else continued working and the whole place is done. At least, as done as it’s going to be.

The whole place actually looks worse than I left it last. But, what can you do? That’s life on the Teen Grid.

X-Flight Flight Assist

A pretty old flight assist that seems pretty popular. It’s not that good; I even made a better one (I might post mine soon), but it is important to put as much as I can up to help people learn as much as possible. This can just be put into an object and attached to your avatar.

Invisiprim

This is the only working invisiprim script I have found. Retrieved from LSL Wiki. Just add it to an object and the object will become an avatar hiding invisiprim!

Calculator Script

Note: I did not make this script, Zindorf Yossarian did. Stick the script in an object and start calculating!

The Fall of the Fur Tool

The Fur Tool, one of the most popular multi-tools on the grid (alongside the NK tool), is just about dead. When I first started SL, I visited the Fur Plateau, where a big sign handed out fur tools for free. Just about everyone on the grid had one, and the NK tool was only just appearing on the scene.

New Avatar

Yesterday, I spent a couple hours working on a new avatar for myself. I always cringe when I have to say that I am wearing items that others have made (I like to make everything myself), but I never really had the skills to make a good looking human. Read more »

Dark Matter

My new project, Dark Matter, is well underway. We are an initiative focused on helping with skill building and education in the teen grid and beyond. We will offer many resources for developers in SL and out to help them improve their skills and be better set to improve the world around them. Right now, the website is almost complete. All that is left is to find one more member for the team.

Wild West Sim

Eye4You has recently added a new sim connected to the original Eye4You island on the teen grid. The new are is meant to become a Wild West themed sim created almost entirely by teens. As far as I understand, any teen who wants to and has the necessary skills is welcome to help out on the build is whatever way they want. This will look pretty cool when it’s done!

The Tech Virtual Museum Exhibit Contest

A new contest has just started. It is run by the guys and gals at The Tech museum in RL San Jose, CA. The contest is going on in both grids. Contestants must design and build a working exhibit to go in the in-world replica of The Tech. Up to a dozen winners will be selected to have their exhibits built in the RL museum, as well as given a prize of $5,000 USD, as well as paid room and board to the RL museum in California to see the grand opening of their exhibits. The exhibits must focus around art, music, and film in technology. Just imagine the possibilities! I am excited to see what sorts of exhibits pop up.

Check out this SLurl to The Tech in the main grid: The Tech (note: this is a SLurl to the main grid museum, a smaller version on the teen grid can be found on Eye4You island)
