AWE rocks uploaded to Alphaworld

Small update: Last week, AWE’s version of rock9.rwx and rock10.rwx were uploaded to the Alphaworld OP as rock9a.rwx and rock10a.rwx. The only difference is that AWE’s rocks don’t smear textures, as seen here. If your already using AWE, you won’t notice a difference by switching your rocks over. It is recommended to use the A variant of the rocks from now on, for all your non-AWE using visitors.

Alphaworld Updates

The Alphaworld train keeps on chugging forward with the much-needed addition of a global chat channel which is being controlled by Strike’s Eclipse Evolution; the same system that is used in AWTeen which means there are jump points and the whole 9-yards. Also, tourist building has been re-added after 6 or 7 years of being locked down.

You can see Flagg’s official post on this matter at the AW Forums.

“First of all, I would like to thank everyone for all of their input, advice, and suggestions. Also, I want to express to you my gratitude for allowing us the time to compile, research, and deliberate over our next group excursion. When making decisions like this there are a lot of things we must consider for the greater good of everyone’s needs and wants. With all that aside..

3rd annual Townbuilding Seminar

I’ll be hosting the 3rd annual Townbuilding Seminar at the Townbuilding booth in AWExpo on Saturday, Dec. 13 at 4am VRT. (1am EST)

I understand that this is pretty late, but I figure that since it’s Friday night most people will be coming in from hanging out, and it’s a fairly decent hour for the rest of the non American world. :p

This year I’ll be highlighting a broad list of topics relevant to the developments Townbuilders have made over the last year.  The general guideline I’ll be following will cover…

– Environments
– The possibilities of new commands (lock, scale, say, etc.)
– Advancement and resurgence of themed public building worlds
– Efficient Advertising for new towns

Of course, I won’t strictly follow this and if anyone would care to interject I would love to make the seminar more of a discussion.

If anyone has a town or community they would like to advertise or otherwise have recognized, let me know by Friday Night.
