    Actually it is a brilliant idea! GO FOR IT!  (No need to to worry about the SL content size and such stuff.)

    Setup your own Opensimulator server it's totally free and do your experiments. The rest will be just minor problems.

    Feel free to give us an update when you ready for a live presentation of your project.

    Opensimulator sucks ass. 😡

    And yes, this station is an affiliate of NBC. Never even changed its affiliation since its debut.

    And people think I'm overly imaginative.

    I'm going to mirror what everyone has been telling you, and be even more blunt.

    This is the cringiest *****ing thing I've ever seen - so bad that I couldn't look through this thread at all without my head screaming why, and that's coming from someone whose personal life can tend to be quite cringeworthy by others' standards.

    Why in the hell would anyone invest in anything resembling this is beyond me when in either being used as a in-world media broadcast system or as a way to connect to SL from anywhere - both have little to no appeal, through the use of assets that you don't even own.

    Do yourself a favor, have some humility and give it a rest.

    No. You have some humility and give it a rest.

    Unlike, say, the overwhelming positive feedback you have been getting here?  Face it, you're going to have a hard time finding anywhere where they don't laugh you out of the room.  You seem to have missed noticing a couple of pages ago that the only Linden who has entered this thread just rolled her eyes and walked away. 

    Face it Roling Loon, you're going to have a hard time finding anywhere where I don't laugh you out of the room.  You seem to have missed noticing a couple of pages ago that the only Linden who has entered this thread just thought it was a great idea.

    Oh look, YOU may add up link if YOUR engineers and coders can, as if you already own that company. Jeeez... 🤦‍♂️ Dude your fantasy really runs wild, it's gonna give you a huge delusion when you'll present this idea and they will boot you out of the window laughing at you. 

    Oh look, YOU may add a new design if YOUR cosing skills can, as if you already own Linden Lab instead of Philip himself. Jeeez... 🤦‍♂️ Dude your fantasy really runs wild, it's gonna give you a huge delusion when you'll present your ideas for avatars and they will boot you out of the window laughing at you.

    You could try discussing this on GameDev, where game developers hang out. You'd get some useful feedback. This is mostly a user forum.

    Are you kidding me? Second Life IS A VIRTUAL WORLD, NOT A GAME.

    There's no way that they'll accept it if I present this idea and they will boot me out of the window laughing at me. It's going to give me negative feedback, and that some users wil think "it's a virtual world".

    Quick calculation - correct me if I'm wrong - downloading 300 petabytes through a fairly fast 100 Mbps connection should take about ... 76,103 years.

    Maybe 1Tb/s speed would be fairly good. It would take about a month. or a year.

    Why? You know, you still haven't provided a single useful function for such a project.

    Are you talking about a "single player" Second Life you can run all on your own computer? That already exists.

    Or are you talking about live video streaming from Second Life? That already exists.

    What else have you got?

    What else have I got? After I'm done with that, I'll start-up my satellite gaming service, using the same technology that I have mentioned in the first page, a standalone tuner after the Second Life PCI-E peripheral. I think it would be a collaboration between Capcom of Japan, WKYC, Hauppage and Tegna of the USA, and Sony Interactive Entertainment, to make a satellite tuner for the PS5 console. WKYC (as WKYC-SB-TDM, and WKYC-SB-TDM1, after I petition the FCC for analog satellite data multplex broadcast licenses), would provide the necessary satellite and broadcasting services, as well as host many of its news broadcasts, while Capcom, Sony and other third-party developers would create games and other content for the peripheral (e.g. Okami).

    the reset of us are still trying to figure it out. I believe I understand the basis as i stated in an earlier post.. but why anyone would ever want to do it for something like sl.. is beyond me.

    not going to ever happen.. it will die before its ever born.

    This will happen even after its born. Once I'm done with that, I'll move on with a gaming service next, based on the technology I created.

    Goodluck with getting the server side software from LL... They kept it in a safe till now, but they will open it for you because of your brilliant and knowledgeable idea, from your explanation it is clear that you really deeply know how the system works. I really wish to see how you will manage LLs spaghetti code without even being able to tie your own shoes 😂 

    Besides, the whole idea is pathetic on its own.

    Whatever company you'd be able to drag in to this crippled idea that is so ignorant to fall for such a brainfart, will end up to sue the crap out of you for causing their bankruptcy. 

    Go ahead laugh reacting. Your blindness is amusing🤣

    It's not pathetic. But it's likely as good as the Satellaview itself. It's not a brainfart. And it will not cause their bankruptcy. And I'm not blind either.

    Well, I mean, it's nice to have goals & stuff...

    Yes, but I'm going to have permission from Linden Lab to use their Second Life Grid server software and modify it as a downlink only version of it, then deploy HP Proliant Bladesystem servers with 100TB SSDs, install my modified minimodem next, deploy my modified Second Life Grid software to the latter servers, then begin my service to compete with Stadia and others.

    Sir SL's content has reached over 300 petabytes in assets, that was I believe 2012 when that was reported, it's been many years that's over 300,000 terabytes,  also assets are stored on ll's servers only, LL is not going hand over assets for any packs.    So what can you do you ask yourself at this point,  opensimulator would be the answer to everything you want,   but it will not have SL assets,  only assets that are provided freely by a few opensimulator creators.

    I believe so. 300 petabytes to be broadcast to any home from WKYC's digital broadcast center.

    How big is “Second Life data”? 😉

    115 MB to be exact, 200 TB in WKYC's SLG servers.

    Then you won't mind if I forward a link to this thread to Justin Gutschmidt, WKYC's Digital Sales Manager.

    Consider it done!

    Well good luck with that. I really hope they hire me for that.

    A satellite data stream sending game software and assets to a game console is a functional model.  The games are run in isolation on the console so there is no need for any type of return data path.  Second Life is an interactive system, not something with packaged content, nor is there a run at home Second Life server to go with the Second Life client.  OpenSimulator, and other virtual world systems that can be run in isolation on the user’s own hardware might be a better target for this project.  One can download regions and inventory from some creator libraries to be hosted locally on OpenSimulator.  

    And my idea of sending SL data is my idea and will be a functional model soon.

    again most rl people wont care about this or ever use it. only a very small niche group would ever use it. it would never be profitable.

    I don't think that's true. It would make huge profits for Tegna.

    There are no expansion packs,  you are asking content creators go "here, have my products that are freely put on a device"  yeah, that will never happen,  I run a store, I help with a huge furry community,  nobody is going to agree to any kind of packs. 

    Expansion packs are the key to Second Life's downlink-only version broadcast from WKYC.

    The real question is not is it possible, but rather why would anyone want this?

    This is for anyone who doesn't have an internet connection. I thought of this idea while researching Nintendo's Satellaview addon for the Japanese Super Nintendo Entertainment System (the Super Famicom).
