Take the S.S. “Respawn” to Freedom!!!

ssrebirth

There it is… the SS “Respawn” at her docking station in RiverWorld I, which is only hours away from Prime-Time Readiness…(She’s equipped with a convenient ATM machine at her engine area.) When the engine is net-player ready, which it isn’t yet, but I’m sure it will be here tomorrow, you’ll be able to board the boat by the dozens and have a river pilot take you up or down the river. I’ll be making the “Mark Twain” riverboat in the next orb, Riverworld II, which I’ll be starting tonight, in order to have it ready by the time you’ll need it. Two boats are required for the next level. These expeditions have stops along the way — circles, dance areas, picnic grounds, gathering places, performance venues and sacred ritual areas, all reached by riverboat as a group. Waterway Group Adventure Games are also on the way — I’ve started an Expedition I orb tonight, which I’ll work on as solutions present themselves. It’s a very difficult project because it involves taking the new GODD engine into realms not yet explored. I’ll post my advances in this area as progress is made. Stay tuned.

See You At The Top!!!

Tonight’s Work Schedule

aaasamplle01

Very Special Good Wishes to Jedrik!!! (I built a prim sculpture that says “HI!” in the temple, will leave it up for the night. Interestingly I didn’t get bumped out until I’d completed the exclamation point, so my net connection is getting better.)

What I’m doing tonight… It’s almost 2 am (make that “well-past-2-am” now, and getting mysteriously later and later, all the time) and all I’ve done so far is categorize the orbs on which I’m working to get them ready for this weekend’s ICW if I can. Dick is working very hard to get the fixes in so my boat rides work correctly, which at the moment, they don’t. The slants are fixed on the boat, but not entirely sure they work on land. Some do, some don’t. Will be trying to debug that while I build boats out of prim type “rboxes”, which are what we call “prims” in the GODD engine.

Here are the orbs I’m working on concurrently:

RAFTER — Workout orb for boat and water problems and steering issues, etc.
SHIRE RAFT — Rafting Expedition through the Shire with lots of bulldozing & hills
RIVER BOAT — “Mark Twain” two-story Steamboat with passengers & lots of detail
00 RIVER — Steamboat paddle-wheeler — Really New Orleans style
BOATRIDE — Uncertain what the boat will look like atm, but the ride is beautiful)
CANAL ZONE — Canal boat ride similar to Team Fortress Canal Zone)
REBIRTH (a stunning variant of warftown that resembles actual rebirth events)
VENICE (waterworld version of HADRON — this will be the basis of some running orbs)
SEA RAFT (that’s the one in the video — this is a wide open space with tropical islands)

What I’m Doing Right Now

riverboat1

This is what I’m doing right now, instead of trying to work online. I probably can get online tonight, but no… I’m in the GODD engine in my new River World I, which is an orb where you’ll be able to take various types of boats up-river. Sure, it sounds the same as in Second Life, but it isn’t at all like Second Life, and I’ll explain why:

Our GODD ® development team — Dick, Claude, Barbara and I are the whole shebang at the moment — have been working for the past quarter century to create the engine we now have at our disposal. It is flawless, the movement smooth and fine, the visuals clear and easy on the eye and the effects are truly awesome, as in “colliding galaxies”.

Shangri-La…

tibetanpinks

All aboard that train for Shangri-La, the All-Canada Prosperity Path Ashram! Of course, it’s just starting its life and work, so it’s not very concrete at the moment, but it soon will be very real, indeed. We take it in stages:

1.  FIRST YEAR — Solstice & Equinox Celebrations, tie-in workshop retreat in the Prosperity Ashram, with local & regional groups gathered together at Ashram Power Points (one of which is YOUR HOME, and I’m talking to YOU). Four Celebrations. Sounds like it won’t be enough, right? Wrong. That’s one celebration every three months, and believe me or don’t, 3 months goes by like a Lamborghini on a test run. It’s a lot of work to get a few folks at an event three months down the line, and you have to start motivating them early, as in six months to a year advance notice so they can make family plans, get time off from work, arrange travel and accommodations, raise money for the expense of the journey, etc.

Valentine’s Day Special — Video Added at Lunchtime…

seara001

Happy Valentine’s Day!!! This is what I’ve been working on intensely, without a single break, all night, since Val delivered the new GODD engine with the RAFT. You’ll note that I’ve bulldozed & plowed pretty much every island in the layout. Some of the higher hills are 30 meters or more. It’s on a shallow inland lake, so if you happen to stumble into the water, you can get right back on land or on the raft without hassle. This is one of several stressbusters I’m working on right now for release with the new RAFT engine. BTW, it is of some note that the raft will also fly like a carpet.

“The Job Makes the Man”

pujapromo_001

“The Job Makes the Man”. It’s a very familiar phrase, a popular saying, a wiseness from ancient times, already. As they say in TXT, baobnabniarbnjafbboihbnaboadjbfnmnanagn, know what I mean??? I know, right? Word. Apart from the Royally Offensive Masculine tense of “Man” meaning “everyone”, it’s very true, and it applies powerfully well to Bodhisattva Training.

Signs & Portents…

spacebuddhaa_offline_&onscreen02_650px

This screenshot was taken by Vittizon. Spacebuddhaa’s intention was to have her Avatar sit in the Tibetan Temple while her Player —  Jedrik — drove by car up to her Ashram Workstation in the Great White North of British Columbia, my old stomping grounds back in the 1970s. You will note in the screenshot that SpaceBuddhaa is listed as “offline”, yet her Avatar remains seated in the Chen-Rig Tibetan Temple. How is this possible? It’s yet another example of the kind of magic at work here. The Universe is a not-so-giant videogame set in a 3D matrix. Why shouldn’t it work?

An Art Show Every Month!!!

morning_view_433x600px

In the Organic World, an artist is lucky to have four shows a year, period. One gallery might show your work every year, others will have you wait three or four years between shows, not to eat up the market with overflow. In Prosperity Virtual Ashram, there’s no reason you can’t put up a new show every month, and if you’re totally beyond bizarre, a new art show every single day. Why not? You’re your own boss on your parcel! And speaking about parcels, don’t forget to learn how to promote your shop, gallery, hangout, club, showroom, chapel or whatever! You can find out more about this at this upcoming weekend’s WORK RELATIONSHIPS workshop. Don’t miss it if you can!!! We’ll be having live auctions inworld for items that are out of this world!

See You At The Top!!!
