    Region relocation

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by EmpressLuna Starchild

    The cost to move a Region is 150$ the cost to make a new region is 120$ this dose not add up as there is 10X more effort in making a new region then moving a region. the cost of moving a region needs to be reduced so people would be more willing to move there region if the cost was more reasonable LL would make more sales.

    I fear for SL

    Secondlife has been a very important part of my life since 2007 it is the most amazing place to spend my time but I fear for are future one thing I have seen as time goes on is less and less big improvements and eventually it will just stop... to bring SL to where it needs to be is to upgrade the engine to something cutting edge! But the cost how do you spend that much to fix a game this old ? Is are days numbered?  

    Will Secondlife be able to provide what we need ?

    Yeah, basically this.  Plus I'm not going to put a thing on my head and block my view.  What if an intruder came into my home?  I cannot risk such a thing.  Plus, I've heard those head things hurt your neck and cause sea sickness and I am very prone to sea sickness.  So, Sansar or VR for me, no.  Plus, about 9 maps to upload for some things...that would cost a fortune in upload feeds.  If people begin to use 24 megapixel cameras with the details already baked into the photograph, it might be worth building such a place as it would be cost efficient.  Nine maps, forget about it.  It's amazing what a 24-megapixel camera can capture.  Then you just meld the photo onto an AO.  

    So, I agree with what you wrote pretty much.

    However, SL may have to change "some time" as, logically, most things do advance eventually.  Since the cloud and BOM my ffs jumped up about 11 to 13 which is great but I still have some jelly dolls at times but it is running better for the avatars yet kind of a little quirky for building.  I've had to send a report to LL about it.  I pay money for the stuff I build.  I don't want it ruined.  

    I don't think you understand the point of the video it as not a game or something you have to like it was showing off the fact that engine 5 can handle billions of triangles... you put 1 billion tringles in a world in SL I think SL would poop its self and probably crash :P so don't try I don't even think the uploader could handle this it has enough problems with 100K triangles more or less this engine would make SL lag free and no limitations to creators! SL its self would be the same old SL just with out the problems

    not true the unreal engine should put less stress on older PC's seeing a PS 5 can run this engine it would not take much to get a potato to run it 

    also like anything it would be a slow transition 

    Unreal Engine 5 System Requirements:

    Minimum Recommended Hardware:
    Operating system: Windows 10 64-bit
    Processor: Quad-core Intel or AMD, 2.5 GHz or faster
    RAM: 8 GB
    Video Card/DirectX Version: DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 compatible graphics card

    what he means is that Engine 5 is the prefect engine to fix all the problems SL currently has you could go stupid on mesh creation and texture creation and engine 5 would not even blink! If SL was on engine 5 I could upload an item with over 10,000,000 triangles and it would probably register as 1 land impact LOL but the # one thing engine 5 will do for us is better lighting you could make avatars that look real like your standing in the real world... 

    More or less with engine 5 we could have so much more on are sims Land impact would be a thing of the past because with unreal engin5 there is more or less no limitations to the artists or creators 

    Un real engine 5 would also draw in allot more people to SL including game creators, amature movie creators, and businesses

    to better understand what it can do watch this YouTube link 



    Now when it comes to VR Just because a game takes on VR dose not mean you need VR to play and if SL did incorporate VR it would be as a supported device (Optional)

    I have been an active member of SL for way too long over 13 years of my life and it has been an amazing ride LL has made some improvements to improve are experience but the improvements are coming so slowly and I fear the cost to bring SL to the point it needs to be at is way too costly to even consider...

    Normally when a games engine gets too old you stop supporting it and make a new game to replace it witch tends to be the cheaper rout but with SL you cant do this :(

    I just dream of the Day Secondlife takes on a hole new life but the real question ?is it even possible!!!?  

    I ask again is it even possible for SL to upgrade to unreal engine 5?

    VR can work it has come a long ways and sim owners if they want VR to work in there sims will have to use optimized items that's where the community comes in play stop wasting $ on sansar and fix SL I don't care if you have to raise premium costs to do it ! we need SL to grow again stop giving excuses and start creating real solutions

    allot of sims use voice now and you can still type in VR and no...... you can advertise Sansar as much as you want it will never come close to what LL has done with secondlife, most that when to sansar came back to SL and no one has anything good to say about sansar because of the limitations! no other platform allows a nooby to create something of there own with out special training or learning LL owns the #1 3D chat in the world and they create an alternative that dose not fulfill the same dream SL did 

     

    with the right setup LL can make VR work in SL allot better then the firestome mod

    You know virtual reality is something new that is slowly becoming more creating even closer bonds and connection and other programs like VRCHat are taking advantage of this but yet Second life has this huge and powerful community of builders and everything they need to turn this place into a real virtual reality paradise and stomp the competition Please stop dumping $ into other stuff and make Second life the future we as a community will help!!!
