Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #openmetaverse, aggregated by home.social.

  1. @Metaverse Standards Forum So these people are about to re-invent OpenSimulator? Something that has been around since 2007 and has even used the word "metaverse" as a regular part of its jargon since 2007?

    http://opensimulator.org

    Okay, so what is this OpenSim thing?

    How decentralised is OpenSim?

  2. CW: Expecting an exciting three and a half hours at OSCC23 today; CW: long (ca. 2,600 characters)
    The OpenSimulator Community Conference is saving the best for last. At least for those of us who live in central Europe, 9 hours ahead of grid time, and who don't want to stay up all night for the late-late events.

      Shop during lunch! Hypergrid Shopping Tour: Where to find content
      I'm curious where Lyr Lobo will take us. And if she has taken the time to add some of my suggestions as actual destinations. Then again, @Juno Rowland or I could probably do an even longer specialise "So you've got a Ruth2 v4, and you're looking for clothes, but you don't want to resort to copybotted Second Life stuff" shopping tour. Have this wiki article instead.
    • 12:30 PM-1:30 PM PST/grid time:
      In Conversation: Mal Burns talks with Tish Shute
      Okay, that's a filler, but probably an interesting one, also because it takes a look at early OpenSim.
    • 1:30 PM-2:00 PM PST/grid time:
      The Open Metaverse Research Group
      Right now, the Open Metaverse Research Group appears to be a bunch of idealistic OpenSim users who want to achieve what industry and cryptobros, both with no knowledge of even OpenSim's existence whatsoever, are working on independently themselves. And it doesn't look like the OMRG has any associates outside the OpenSim community. Not to mention the state their very wiki is in. I hope this panel will convince me otherwise.
    • 2:00 PM-2:30 PM PST/grid time:
      Max – New Free Mesh bodies for OpenSim Avatars
      The most exciting panel of the whole event. Ada Radius presents the new "unisex" mesh body she has created this year, Max, that can be turned into a male variant named Maxwell and a female one named Maxine. It's the official successor of Ruth2 and Roth2 now, and just like them, it's free, open-source, legal and made in and for OpenSim by largely the same team. And it promises to provide a much better dev kit. I'll try to apply as a beta-tester, also because I don't want this body to go out there only lab-tested by its own devs.
    • 2:30 PM-3:00 PM PST/grid time:
      A Home for Arcadia Asylum
      Another topic dear to Ada, now joined by Kayaker Magic: the creations of Arcadia Asylum/Aley Arai/Lora Lemon/Aley Resident, at least what was successfully rescued and transferred to OpenSim. Kayaker has recently launched an entire grid specialising on Arcadia Asylum, and there'll be a tour through it tomorrow at 10 AM PST/grid time.

    And then we have DECENTRALAND which is totally not decentralized. (Prove me wrong please show me the code) Their site reads that they are "the first and only decentralized open source metaverse that started in 2020" oh yeah that sounds legit right there.

    One of the reasons why I've made this:

  9. It may be a pancake. It may neither have easy support for VR headsets nor guarantee you 60fps even if you get it to run through a VR headset. But it was there before all of you. It used the term #Metaverse many years before any one of you had even heard of it.



    The #Hypergrid, the interconnection between #OpenSimulator grids, is 15 years old this year. And yes, #OpenSim is actually #decentralised like you wouldn't believe. Over 420 big and small public grids and over 8,000 privately-run, home-hosted grids based on #DreamGrid, over 95% of which are on the Hypergrid, say a lot, I guess.

    Oh, and it needs no #blockchain, it needs no #cryptocurrency, and it needs no #NFTs. It runs on the same technology as #SecondLife (which celebrates its 20th birthday this year, as in it's still alive, too) while being fully #FreeLibreOpenSourceSoftware.

    I've been bringing back the ideas of web rings in the 1990s web world for the modern #openmetaverse as we begin to form rings with portals where we can walk between our web worlds easily with trusted links between our community members. It's early stage, but the #MetaTraversal portal crawls are an early template of how 3D web rings could work for the #WebXR communities

  20. 90s things like #webrings are new again

    In our #opensource #XR testing of #openmetaverse connected worlds we successfully tested jumps across many 3D sites in a webring last week

    Walked thru a wide variety of portals between worlds last week in #webXR demos testing a 10-world metaverse social jump with #MetaTraversal

    Now to sort out the toughest parts of #UX #interoperability that came up during these load test challenges, especially how we can stay on the same page and in dialogue together

  25. 🤣 @atlgaytheist anyone is welcome to pay me and my 16 colleagues here a few hundred million for their time and dedication to these challenges in #interoperability to make sure that we can continue doing this work openly in public. We're platform creators, tooling makers and producer/creators with decades of expertise working with tough public sector clients worldwide.

    Github, Discord is where we organize #openmetaverse endeavors

  26. To watch the full round of #webxr #portal jumps and how those various load tests worked between 8-16 people synchronously jumping interspaces on VR, desktop, thru OBS and avatars on 10 different types of 3D sites youtu.be/AH0IpbN5WsQ

    Thanks to @dankvr too for dope-on-the-fly portal builds in stream as avatar host
