So, we just finished the first full sim build we're allowed to talk about other then our main store location of Natalis. If you are one of my smart dedicated readers, one of the select few, then you know I've mentioned it before. But now you can read what one of the principal clients has to say about it. Neit has talked about how pleased she is with the results here.
A couple of fast quotes from her gushing praise:
"What he's created is an amazing sim full of surprises. He took his prefab buildings and did some modifications - some minor, some major - and finished the entire build in just over 3000 prims. The whole sim (minus furnishings and some landscaping) could fit on an open space sim!"
And...
"On top of only taking 3000 prims to build all of this, the lag is amazingly low - even with a tournament in progress. I've seldom seen the script performance on the sim go over 50K, and it usually stays between 10K and 15K, with a number of avatars on it. Now THIS is what most RP sims are lacking - or rather, have too much of."
I want to spend some time talking about the process and how it came about, some design decisions we made with our client and why things work as well as they do, but this is probably a multiple post type of situation. Suffice it to say that I love the feel of the sim, I enjoyed working on it and I and my crew enjoy playing there. I've gotten the ok to talk about the process from the principals involved and I plan to do a bit of a series on what it takes to do a full sim with a group of people. It's interesting and has lots of lessons inside it. So stay tuned.... meanwhile check out Endless Nights here.
