kayla Mekanic Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 What are your thoughts about Secondlife V2?I kinda doubt high fidelity is actually going to be SL2.I hope Sl2 will be similar to the current secondlife except it'll have MASSIVE improvements and features to accommodate the Next Gen including:Virtual Reality compatibility with Occulus Rift(confirmed), Razor Hydra, Omni and more...Improved performance capabilitiesEven more possibilities for avatar custimization like custom skeletons/armatures (though you would have to make ALL of the default av's anims before it'd work I believe.Ragdoll features. Since I believe this new SL will be able to handle this, Ragdoll physics please! If not with Avs, then at least for objects(by creating joints between prims) and meshes.Flexi mesh! Better tails, Better mesh hair maybe? Better everything.More advanced scripting system. Maybe in SL2 you could create more advanced character AI for your objects. Better yet, you could go the Unity3D approach and also allow other scripting languages to be used if possible! If not, then I really hope the Linden scripting language will be revamped to be even more advanced and powerful!Also, before you reply with "SL can't handle all that" Just think.Our current SL is like an outdated computer. It's been upgraded to its maximum but yet it's still 10 years behind technology and performance-wise. But if you build a new computer that is up to next-gen performance, then it will be able to handle things significantly better.Just think of all the possibilities!So, your thoughts?

Amethyst Jetaime Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 The Next Generation Platform (LL calls it that) is NOT SL2. It's likely to be far different and hopefully easier to use. Scripting will be in C++. Everything else is pure conjecture at this point and will be until LL decides to release more information. It is still in the design stage so anything is possible.

HarrisonMcKenzie Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Well, whatever it is, it'll be using current technology, so it should be an interesting project. Assuming it has anything to do with Second Life or a Second Life-like platform, I'd expect better performance and optimization, better integreation with modern asset creation tools, and an improved inface and controls. Anything beyond that is wishlisting, since we don't even know what this new project is, let alone can create opinions about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenMichelle Lane Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 For all you people interested in the coding side of our virtual existence: C# is intended to be a simple, modern, general-purpose, object-oriented programming language Its development team is led by Anders Hejlsberg. The most recent version is C# 5.0, which was released on August 15, 2012.

kayla Mekanic Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Which is perfect cause i'm learning c# in Unity And anyways it's always nice to see other people's opinions/wishes on the subject. I'm excited either way, knowing that there WILL be another secondlife and it'll be more next gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alwin Alcott Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 great you are at Uni, hope they will finally teach you to read too ..there will be NO new second life, not in name, not in world, not in anything, it will be different. I fyou are in such need of a clone go to Open Sim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayla Mekanic Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 No need to be rude. There can still be a discussion about how Sl would be like IF it had these features. Also: http://www.lindenlab.com/releases/linden-lab-is-developing-the-next-generation-virtual-world While obviously it won't be EXACTLY like SL (which i really don't care, as long as it still has the creative aspects with massive improvements compared to SL, like nextgen features, then i'm good with it) It's being developed and I think it'd be cool if it had these features. Just saying. So calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alwin Alcott Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 yes i could, but you posted it in the general discussion, and as long i keep my comments between in line of the community standards i can respond to it.

Also dangerous, in that the same post contained a misreading of "Unity" for "university" (presumably, for "Uni" to make any sense at all). Anyway, it's probably good that your C# is in the Unity setting because it's one step in the direction of dumbing-down of the language, where Linden's Next Gen Thingy will have to go a step or two further to ensure security and practical resource sharing by user-generated scripts. So, yeah, it'll be the same language, but it will feel tremendously crippled by limitations imposed on the execution environment, much as LSL currently doesn't get to run wild all over the Mono engine. But all this notwithstanding, I think "learn to read" really refers to the fact that commentary on this topic has been rampant and voluminous, and you'll not see anything posted in response to this thread that wouldn't be more easily found in other threads, other forums, blogs, and transcripts of interviews with Ebbe. Google is your friend -- and in this case, will save a lot of time and produce much better results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irihapeti Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 whispers (like maybe made up could be somehow dunno exactly) are that the next gen thing is referred to as Sansar ancient olde SL worlde. Sansar(a) being the unofficial name of the SL original continent + so maybe we gunna kinda sorta be like Battlestar Galacticans in the next gen thingy. Fleeing the cySLons in search of sanctuary and our roots and our true peoples and homeland. Or homestone even, for the smexxory part maybe could be somehow dunno exactly (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
