K-Town Progress

Added 2016-04-23 19:25:32 +0000 UTC

Are you guys interested in seeing my work on Second Life (SL) for the Kaerwyn and commission BGs?

Here's some stuff I've been working on. During the downtime between Issue 9 and Issue 10, I'll be redoing the entire K-town build on my island in SL.

The original K-town build uses several different sets, the big one with the fountain is actually tiny sized, and takes up a huge amount of land impact. Land impact is what determines how much stuff you can have on an island/parcel of land. Because the current town takes up so much, it's a pain and I end up having to delete lots of things to make room for more. That makes it somewhat inconsistent at times.

I've spent the past few months trying to change everything over to mesh instead of just prims. This would save us a lot of land impact numbers, as well they just look better. For example, the average building in the current K-town set is 60 land impact. The buildings that I'm currently working on are 2-8 land impact. It's a huge savings for me.

Right now I'm really pushing to try to get the SL backgrounds to match my drawing style so they don't look so out of place.
