In need of period creators

General Discussion

As you know Ning host many of the most talented period creators, should it concern clothing, furniture or houses. This is why I reach out to all of you who wish to make money or to help other grid to grow.

You are now all used to shop on the SecondLife MarketPlace but there is another one that allow creators to sell their stuff across any other OpenSim Grid and use direct USD currency so you don't need to work your Virtual money into real one and lose some by doing so...

Here is a link to this market : Kitely Market

Here is a information page about how it work : Information Wiki

I will highlight some interesting details here:

• No upload cost
• No Land Impact all is calculated in Prim count (1 object of 2 prims = 2 prim, 1 object of 1 prim = 1 prim)
• By selling from Kitely market you reach every open sim grid that don't have a market
• A free open sandbox for creators to build on without having to pay a tier or a monthly subscription.

All this and of course the most important, the chance to allow more period sims to open.

Also for those who might need help on the transition or scripting or mesh help I am ready to assist in anyway I can.

Here are the question :

1. Who is going to make the move and contribute to Kitely Market?
2. Why not make the move?

Hi Marie-Henriette, its been a while since I last saw you in Antiquity Hope you are doing well. I'm building a baroque estate of 16 sims on Kitely Grid but is not (to my taste) ready for official visit... It will be a fictive sim but inspired (as all my projects...) on French 18th century culture. This will be a Role Play environnement but most of all a casual game. To make a story short I wish to build a kingdom where people come to experience the 18th lifestyle in different ways so you could be either a farmer , a "bourgeois" or a noble and should you like to live the court lifestyle following the king and queen and try to raise your title or could prefer to have a more isolated life in a country side of the kingdom or live simply in a farm and go shopping sometimes in the capital city. So this is basics of my project Its mostly what can share for now.

Bloggers' Corner

I agree with you Jacon but at the same time, having Facebook making is own virtual world could have the opposite effect in SL as their will be no publicity made for SL only for Facebook virtual world or Sansar when it should come out. Also Open Sim is already here for long time and it is not exploit as it should be as there is not enough publicity around it and mostly there are almost no marketplace but for Kitely (as far as I know) so not many creators. People go where many people are like they said about Sansar, they will be pushing hard at launch to bring creator there as it is the only way this project can work out. Creators could already move to another grid and bring their existing work over there the way it is built in SL (prim, sculpt, mesh) but they don't as they don't see the interest (potential profit). To me having something as cash making and addictive simple games like Facebook making its on virtual world is more alarming then promising in SL perspective...

Thank you for sharing Tatiana, I also greatly anticipated Sl2 (didn't knew it has a name yet) seeing in the notes that the world can run at 75 FPS is great news for script but I wonder if the client side viewers will get faster then SL... From the link discussion it is not clear how "land" will work and how rental will be made but yes seams to be willing to lower tier cost by increasing transaction fee... That could be of course when you sell something but sadly when you upload something inworld. As their intention to make it easier to upload mesh I wish they will remove the land impact from Sansar as it is only a way to make money and block creativity. And yes I too wonder what the inworld building tool will look like, they talk about Voxell which I don't know about.

TTR Content Copybotted & Imported to Sunlight-Grid

General Discussion

The ombline Versailles was the same as Louis Ren douard de Rohan (AV SL : bourbonestateproject) in SL. Was ruled by the previously named Marie-Antoinette de France and pictures of it can be found on Ning on her album:

Marie-Antoinette de France's Photos ( http://royalcourts.ning.com/photo/photo/listForContributor?screenName=381u07nyciihg )

On this sim you could also find in that time the apparition of Princesse Catherina Dashkova "THE SOUS" HUD (or real name Antiquity Treasury HUD). Then used by her Jeanne Saint Remy de Valois in "Petit Bourg".

Sadly I did not took pictures of it.

Theft in SL

General Discussion

It is known there was copy stuff in Sunlight Grid, but as far as I know I did not encounter other places like that... Still in Kitely I did visit many sims and yet have found nothing I can notice. Also it seams more creators from SL are coming around Kitely which is great like Twice Baked did this week. The good think if you wish to sell stuff in Open Grid is Kitely market can be exportable so you can use your stuff on any Grid (but SL as it is a close Grid) and there is no upload fees or any cost at all 100% free and even free sandbox sim to work on. For the what can be copybot I've seen texture, sculpt and scripts so I presume everything can be copybot. (like the full Pavilion of Tatiana)

Theft in SL

General Discussion

I can't be happier and agree more with most your comments. As you might know I am the actual Creator of the French Kingdom of Antiquity and I see there is a misunderstanding I would like to clear... I didn't say I held Antiquity or Jacon or who ever (but the copybot) responsible for the act of copy (I understand that truely). I said in my notecard (and you don't have this part) was :

"I have been concerned about a certain ''copyboter'' who is apparently moving freely around Antiquity. I did also discovered that, some of my creation were already been copyboted. I already informed Jacon about the situation and the thief itself. However,
it appears that this person was not even banned from Antiquity's land but even worse,
I have learned today that this very 'thief/copybot was now going to establish himself freely in Clagny, and was about to create his own roleplay with all his ALTs. I imagine you can understand my frustration.

Unfortunately, I cannot accept further such situation. I do not wish my builds to be used/ serve by/for this copybot/thief.

And sadly i had no other choice but to remove my buildings from Antiquity.

I really wish i did not have to go that far to protect my intellectual property."

Should you like long story I would resume : this person have been a situation in the French Kingdom for almost 2 years and each time was identified with proofs given to Antiquity's owner. Each time a BAN was requested and nothing happened : wait and see... or like Tiamat like to say : "Innocent until proven guilty". He already had rent several times in Clagny and I had to suffer from it. Now having him establish a court RPhis ultimate goal toClagny is far to much for me (also it is weird a court was accepted so fast as Antiquity admins are not very into it usually....). Yes this is somewhat childish but this is to me disrespect.

I wish Jacon and the Antiquity's admins will learn from your answers and recommandations.
