21 regions this year, OMFG!!!  :o

(I did the calculations, that's about 855 miles in RL!)

I do believe that is the most that has ever been done!  ...At least since I've been paying attention (since my respawn after a 5-year SL hiatus and my recent pleasure of doing this blog).  :)

Now I have blogged about Fantasy Faire a total of ---> 1 & ---> 1/2 times.  I started doing that for a few different reasons:  

1. Because I could, first and foremost.  I mean, do love to write.  Especially about things I am passionate about (in case you couldn't tell already), and FF (I have to tell you), is truly THE one thing to look forward to every year in SL  ...I mean, you want your cake and to eat it too?  To be anything you want and to do anything you want in SL?  Well, how about LOTS of frosting and even flavored milk to wash that all down with?!  -FF is SL on steroids, LOL!  xD  The best of the best gather every year.  This is why I am willing to take a hit and give up the normal things in SL that make me happy for this annual event (perhaps weekly sales, but definitely my fishing rank!).  ...And at any rate, hopefully, after reading this entry, you may sincerely see at least a bit on just exactly why FF is such a powerful event, and so very blog-worthy.


2. Because I find that if I blog it (with a shit-ton of pix & Creator info. including SLURLs) I have time to go back thru my notable tastes & spend my money a bit more wisely.  --That is not to say that dumping every dollar you can on FF is bad.  Not at all.  In fact, this WHOLE FF event is for the very great cause of supporting Relay For Life and it is likely (& very proudly), the BIGGEST fucking contributor, at least in the whole of any "gaming" community, IMO!  \m/  ...Just me, personally, I am actually on a very fixed income in RL, unfortunately, so I find it a bit wise to reign in my favorite & most pleasurable SL past-time (of very impulsive impulse buying), by taking these notes to refer back to later (...and then, why shouldn't you benefit from them as well?).  xD  


3. That being said, I am also like to challenge myself to stay experienced in the type of writing style I do.  I try to make things very "Earthy" so anyone can understand and feel included as my adventures unfold.  Plus, it is nice to have memories to look back upon.  And a LOT of work goes into FF each year.  Fabulous Creators and special creations, all in the name of fighting cancer.  I cannot think of one person who hasn't been affected by cancer in some way or another.  So please join me in justifying this powerful cause, and I promise that you will not find it hard at all to give back just by letting yourself get swept away in this magnificent effort as well!

Some additional mentions I'd like to add:

• This year, I would like to also do this in honor of my Marine coworker buddy's wife, gone very suddenly and too very soon to cancer.  A very kind and caring person who knew how to take charge and get things done right.  A Special Education Teacher's Aide loved by all.  Her favorite past-times included Legos, puzzles, but she did also put up with all kinds of car antics.  She is survived by her mother (who also battles cancer), husband (who gave me permission to write this little piece here), children, and grandsons.  ...Thank you for letting us be a part of your life and enhancing ours.  You are missed, a whole heck of a bunch, but at least now you can finally enjoy the peace you more than certainly deserve.  ♥
• Although it would be nice to have the "FF Chronicler" tag that I saw lots of yahoos running around with... I don't.  I mean, yus, I did see the FF Blogger Info. in enough time to apply, however, I chose not to for several reasons.  First, I'm not entirely sure that 1 & 1/2 times is prerequisite enough to be mentioned amongst that elite team.  Plus, I find that my writing only works when I have the freedom to do it for myself and my own very high standards (not to network/kiss-ass, or to be a part of a club/niche/clique, or to essentially sellout and give whatever I'm writing about complete control over what I can and cannot present).  I've had all too much experience with "their house, their rules" over and much too much over again in SL (...like why ruin the fantasy spell of Oz over me with FF at this point?).  xD  The main thing is that if you find my writing informative and entertaining enough to benefit from, then that makes it all the more powerful (and I'm sure that George Carlin, or anyone who rejects mainstream American network television news for the alternative "underground" or another country's, would concur).  Nonetheless, knowing how I report things, FF may take pride in the fact that I am unable to tear it apart, as they are the leaders who set the example for SL.  Lastly, I do see that I genuinely meet the criteria that it seems Sonya Marmurek mentions, however, I might feel very different if, case in point, FF came to me to write an entry for them, much like how PlantPets came to me to write about their Summer Festival.  
• I do need to absolutely thank my RL BF who gave me this high-end gaming rig, to make this all even possible  ...To be able to push this out ASAP without combating years of lag, and to be able to present to you stunningly gorgeous pictures (this is how all my blog posts and SL experiences are MEANT to be done and shared)...  And not to mention, who is SO amazingly awesome, simply because he's willing to support the sacrifice of our time together, all in the name of likely little to no prestige, just because this is something I am headstrong about (and fucking goddamned determined to do!).  xD  ;)  ♥

• Calendar of events schedule of stuff is ---> here.  I'm not sure if I have enough time to do any of the concert events or interactive Role-Play events they usually have to offer, as my goal is to go thru this in a reasonable enough amount of time for everyone to be able to enjoy this and/or be inspired to also come and enjoy ...But we will see.  I usually like to blame this on RL work, but, thank goodness the pandemic raised essential worker wages, and in order to adhere to the federal SGA limit in the highest minimum wage paid state, I had to give up some nights ...Fuckface bureaucracy.  :p  At any rate, you may wish to double-check with The SL Newser, just in case.  And anyhoo, enough bitching about being in-between worlds, and on with the fun part!  \m/  :D
• I traveled by foot and broke this entry down by the names of each region in big, blue font.  You may also use the "Ctrl" + "f" keys to find a particular word you are looking for.  And as always, you can scroll down to the very bottom of this entry to the "I can't fucking read this" links to see a black and white picture version of this blog, as it looks before it is published.
• Just like in years past, I took as many pictures as possible (although, this year has a record of damn near 700 pictures!).
• No, I do not feel like dealing with EEP and moving my store above 600m right now (fuckity fuck, fuck stupid fucks), so these pix are from the very last version of Firestorm that still does WL.  I also didn't feel like bothering to accept WL experiences (oops/sorry/shrug/IDC).  I know, I break all the rules that I can get away with.  :p  My photos are also raw and very rarely edited (it's a fun, sick game I play with me, myself, and I -who puts these blog posts all together- not the Trojan army), except to fit on this blog page.  Sometimes they don't always turn out as awesome as they could be, but you know WTF they're of.  I think I almost got 1/2 way thru before I remembered the keyboard commands to fine-tune the camera controls (Alt + Ctrl + arrows = orbit,  Alt + arrows up and down are zoom, and Alt + Ctrl + Shift = move camera laterally).  :p  All pictures will generously fit the width of this blog on your average computer screen (900 pixels wide).  If for some reason, you would like the bigger versions, you may contact me by copying/pasting this into nearby chat

• Some may be of scenic regions (or parts of the region as I come across certain aspects) and interactive displays of art, hunt items, etc.  Most may be about the shopping portions (forewarning/disclaimer: this part is a bit skewed, because the things featured are of my particular taste; as it is absolutely impossible to capture all of FF on an ASAP deadline, thus, you are highly encouraged to check it out for yourself and see what things I may have omitted!).  That being said, I tried to capture notable things for everyone (all genders and species).  I tried to be fair and blog as much as I could, but if for some reason a specific shop didn't show up, it's not because I hate it or whatever... I basically captured all the things I like/want, and then I tried to make it a little bit more fair in considering the other ppl who may invest their time in bothering to read this.  I promise, that I spent a SHIT-TON of quality hours @ FF to put this entry together.  I'm very thorough.  I traveled on foot.  I cammed everywhere.  If I didn't mention anything from a certain store or place in this blog, it was NOT to piss you off.  This is ultimately *MY* personal blog.  I put in it what is important to me ...so if you have a problem with it, you can just fuck off and continue having a nice day!  :D  
• I have also taken as many pictures as I could of RFL/FF exclusives (these are things you may want to pay particular attention to, as once the Faire is done, you may not be able to buy them).  These things are also sometimes listed as "ACS FF Vendor - OFFICIAL v27," and yes, that's where I usually had to dig into the Contents to copy/paste exactly what you would be buying (as it seems a lot of Creators omitted changing the names of their vendors, even on their Caspervends).
  
  
  
• Now, as far as how to read stuff on my "featured shopping" pix...
• Under each of those pictures, from left to right, top to bottom, I tried to list the names of these buyable things featured in the picture ("try" is the keyword, as sometimes it wasn't always possible to do so).  I did, however, copy/paste names from the Build/Edit window (and sometimes the Contents part of the window) so things are easy for you to Area Search find.  I guess I should also note that sometimes I meant to get just one thing in the picture, but other things that weren't the focus of the picture got cut off ...that's just life, fucking work around it and deal with it.  I mean, I think I derendered one staircase support, but that was only because it was blocking the object I was trying to capture, TBH.  You really can't tell.  *shrug*  :p
• Under that, I put the name of the Creator with a clickable link, where you may find their inworld store information (outside of the FF event), usually in their Profile Picks section.  "...But, Majik, why don't you list inworld stores?"  -Because ppl buy/sell land & move their shops around like musical chairs, it's better to just look at the Creator's profile at the specific time you want to visit.  Yus (even tho some Creators hate the MP tax).  Again, IDC, that's life, work around it (and if you "play" SL, you're smart enough to figure that shit out and deal with it)!  :)
• In the same line with the Creator's name-link will be a link to their Marketplace store, if applicable.  Sometimes the link will even take you directly to the featured product (if I was able to find it).
• Under that, I listed how much the featured item/s cost at FF, and any additional notes (like if there is no/demo available, fatpack options, etc.).  I tried to be as accurate as I could, but I did notice that some vendors were actually able to fool me (like as to whether or not there was or wasn't a demo).  Again, go to FF & see for yourself, just to make sure.  My blog is just for personal reference, mostly, but you are invited to enjoy it too.   Also, please note these remarks refer to FF, for example, a demo may very well be available at the Creator's mainstore.
• And finally, under that, is the SLURL (a clickable link to get you inworld near the item/s & out of the way of likely spawning on somebody, as I do like to cam around to shop) in FF.  
• Sometimes I may write things above a picture and then have an all-inclusive, informative one-liner written under it ...just to break up the monotony, or if it suits the format better  ...Whatthefuckever, you're smart, you will figure it out!  :)

Oh, wait a minute!

...Yeah, even tho I have certainly fantasized about it before when I had the crap-top, I'm not even gonna go there like that and be a complete ass who abuses their graphics card power over everyone and make everyone else's life miserable  ...Even tho that would be funny, LOL!  xD  But yeah, I remember what it's like to move around like you're trapped in jelly and then relentlessly crash, so I'll just be kind.  I can always come back and shoot scenery pix with my fantasy outfit if I really care.  Teegles look better when you ride them, rather than wear them, anyway.  :p  Tell you what, I'll compromise and just wear an outfit I normally would wear.  Cut that complexity shit by more than half.  I mean, I'm a fantasy creature anyway.  ;)  Ironic twists of mischief abound!  The dark fae / succubus who gets eyeballed at church by newbies, and the same creature who wears cotton to FF!  xD  

...Gangsta'!  \m/

...Oh, BTW, I did actually get MANY compliments on my wings this year.  It was wonderful!  Usually, I have to go as a transparency/alpha avatar to keep up with the lag... But this year, I was amazed to be greeted by a very many friendly Faire folk!  :)  ♥

So, let the literal flood gates open!

...As you will arrive ---> underwater! 

FAIRELANDS JUNCTION ~ Sponsored by The NeoVictoria Project

Basically, an underwater region helps cut down on lag.  So, yay, nicely done (again)!

So here we are @ Faireland's Junction, in the clusterfuck of ppl arriving for the grand opening, LOL (first year I've EVER been able to come when it just opens!)...  

I moved away, so you can see the different region portals in the background (plus it's always nice to immediately move away from a landing point you TP to, so others don't land on you and get stuck).

You can touch the portals to see the World Map and TP, or you can accept the "FF - HS Experience" to be able to walk thru & TP.

Or you can just, perhaps, TP ---> here and walk down the cubic sea treetop, into the water of portals and paths.  ;)

Guess we are going Widdershins/East this year, if we are to see the Worldlings!

The first one is from Aelva.  Sort of a magical Alice In Wonderlandy dream theme.

Follow the white rabbit.

Not sure about the significance of all the float text (which my pictures will not show, as I opted for the viewer's pictures, which do omit that), but it does rather speak a fragment of poetry relating to pose-ball animations (although, you cannot actually sit on these objects), "1: See no Evil," "1: Hear no Evil," "1: Speak no Evil," "1: Pendulum," "1: Fly," "1: Twirly," the heart cloud does say, "1: Handstand," under that, "1: Hang," leading to the Cheshire Cat... 

Here's the animated Cheshire Cat.  More float text poetry fragments say, "1: Talk," and end with, "1: Dance with me."

Here's a Worldling by λrιαηα Pετrσνα (ariana.petrova).

The octopus and the jellyfish in the background are animesh, appearing to swim by floating up and down.

Warwick Falconer has a forest Worldling complete with animated water, snakes, dragonflies, and glowing mist!

DaveOSaurus brings us a quaint medieval dock scene.

This says "Beryl," but the responsible resident's name is Strifeclaw (strifeclaws), who brings us an animated haunted demon scene of black silhouettes grasping from the ground, and a select few floating up and swirling around in a chaotic darkness.

Here's Meridel Gray's busy industrial Worldling.

This bee was caught outside the window display...

...Not sure if the rusted-out factory has been taken over by the essential worker bees, or if this is a message that bees are so important to the world's supply of things, but either way, it does make you kinda think.

Allie (allie.munro) brings us "The Unspoken" Worldling.

This portal has a warm swirling red light and is surrounded by swirling leaves

The fairies are also animated and surrounded by even tinier fireflies and butterflies.

ᵗᵒᵒ ᵇᵘˢʸ 4 U (doctor.aho) brings us a rather promising terrain Worldling, almost to say that there is a shimmer of hope fighting all the darkness.

And before we go to the next region, I'm just going to take these stairs here, to show you this beautiful memorial...

Up, past the Worldlings, out of the sea...

"We will meet again within the stars...."

When I touch any of these unlit candles, it says this into nearby chat, "Fantasy Faire 2021 ~ Memorial Candle: Light the candle to show your support.  To make a donation, purchase this candle and a pop up will appear for you to write your message."

...There are many more to see, or to even leave your thoughts with, here...

...But it makes me cry, so now, I'm going to go back onto the path under the sea, and discover what else there is here...

Looks like that's the end of Faireland's Junction...

This might be a good time to remind you to relog at every region, even if you don't think you need to, as it helps with texture loading and lag.  And perhaps I should paste this handy texture thrash fixing link here, for all of us 3rd party viewer ppl.  ;)

...Anyway, onto THE CERULEAN BOMBORA ~ Sponsored by Multifarious Conceptions!

(the half harbor region leading into shops and extending the Memorial)

"Forests Of Calduhr!!!!

"The Forests of Calduhr Sim brings to SL a beautifully diverse large scale Medieval Fantasy Roleplaying space for those seeking a new venture for their stories to begin and flourish. The foundation of the sim has been established by long time experienced Roleplayers who had a vision to bring a bewitching breathtaking realm to the SL community. This labor of love, aims to provide a freeform roleplay experience with a minimal d20 system for those looking to just jump into their stories whenever and not to be left behind in leveling based systems.

"Our team have worked tirelessly to weave together a four sim sized realm, where no detail has been missed to conjoin each area into a fully traversable realistic fantasy real sparingly using teleporters to get you to places. Every quarter accurately portrays a new theme to each sector, allowing our players to discover new diverse places to set their roleplay adventures within. Some examples of places include: the bleak dank eerie marsh of Morass, the vibrant contrasting seasonal represented fae lands, the quaint city of Valentheia and its local shipping yard, the vast expanse of the woodlands hiding the nordic style village....and of course MUCH MORE which we will leave for you to discover here.

"Now onto the story of Calduhr. The realm of Calduhr is an ancient land once only home to the mighty Titans whom shaped the land, carving out stone to make a home for the ancient dragons whom took roost there. The land also burst into life as the Fae lent there unprecedented power over nature to the realm.The residents of Calduhr found themselves thrust into the realm from their own homelands by the means of a powerful unknown magical entity. Some of the first settlers from the outer-worlds were that of humans whom founded the city of Valentheia. Distrusting of the new residents the titans crafted their own race, the Stone Folk (Dwarves) to make first contact with the humans. The faerie too found their own interest in the new residents taking a curiosity in their appearance. Sculpting a form similar to the humans and forcing life into their own creation the Sylvian (Wood elves) to make contact. Both these races soon found themselves corrupted away from their creators by the offerings of the human world. The spreading corruption soon passed into the swamplands home to the titans a cause of their demise. As the Titans fell, the Ancient dragons took flight from the isle departing, the only ones who remained were those forged, born and brought to Calduhr.

...But all bad jokes aside, I have a surprise for you...

I went to the Interview with Walton F. Wainwright and Victor E. Eton, the world builders of Somniatoris Arx in Somniatoris Arx event (please note that irrelevant chat was omitted and some grammatical errors were fixed):

[2021/05/02 16:00]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Welcome, Fairelanders! 
 

We’re here today with Walton F. Wainwright and Victor E. Eton to explore the creative processes that led to the intricately detailed Faireland, Somniatoris Arx. Wainwright is a storyteller. He’s working with an amazing team. And we have the chance to learn more about how they designed and created this city and its sustaining genius, the Somniator.

[2021/05/02 16:01]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Here’s how we’ll proceed: I’m the moderator, Wainwright and Eton will be our key speakers, and other members of the Somniatoris team are also with us. Because we’re in text tonight, I’ve already shared some questions with them, and they have replies prepared.

[2021/05/02 16:01]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): But we’re ready to go beyond what’s we have ready ahead of time. I’ll be asking some followup questions based on the replies (which I have not seen) and I also invite you to IM your questions to me. I will ask the ones that are a good fit for what we’re exploring and for what you as the audience want to know.

[2021/05/02 16:02]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): ... PLEASE IM questions just to me so I can manage them :)

[2021/05/02 16:02]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): You’ll notice we’re using special chat extenders that only broadcast the speaker’s words, courtesy of the Somniatoris engineers. Please note that if you are farther than 20 m from us, you will hear us, but we won’t hear you. If you have questions or comments, please IM and please also IM them to me.

[2021/05/02 16:03]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Please welcome the music of Tamlorn to accompany our talk! He's on the stream now :)

[2021/05/02 16:03]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): We hope you’ll enjoy the discussion and find it illuminating! Let’s dive in.

[2021/05/02 16:03]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Walton, I know you view storytelling as an important part of your role. Can you tell us a bit about how this works for you? In other words, do you start with a story line? An image? An idea for a build you’ve always wanted to try? Where does the creative process begin for you?

[2021/05/02 16:04]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Oh my, certainly a fun question to answer!

[2021/05/02 16:04]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): I'm a very audio visual individual, so music tends to steer me towards a direction for a mood, and from there an image is developed along with a prompt in my mind. This year, I wanted to do Steampunk that avoids the clanky, kitschy ratchet town ends of things, and focuses more towards religious, elegant and cult like tones with more decoration and less mechanical clutter.
[2021/05/02 16:04]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): The prompt for this round was "Cathedral City", and it kicked off from there with more relevant music stuffed into a playlist, mood boards put together and concept art sketched out (quite briefly) to get an idea of the direction I want to go. Once the visual and audio canon is set, the story telling begins, and the lore building is put together over time in between creating more visuals of the world.

[2021/05/02 16:04]  Second Life: Now playing: Inner Cathedral

[2021/05/02 16:05]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): My base inspiration is to cover gothic literature, and in some ways, this sim is an homage to the trending questions that cropped up during Queen Victoria's long mourning. A city of mourning and remembrance is what Somniatoris Arx is all about, rather than being spooky and filled with nefarious intentions.

[2021/05/02 16:05]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Here's some relevant sketches that I'm not too -too- embarrassed to show which are behind me. I only did a few since most of the ideas come from meshing it, so I suppose looking around you is a good way to know part of the process as well!

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): So above is the logo I've illustrated for Somniatoris Arx, featuring what the people think is the Somniator.

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Michele (michele.hyacinth): whoa

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Dreamsphere Zeimer: stunning

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Nyanka (nyanka.jinx): Oooooh

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Arcanis (amabelthewitch): Marvelous. ^^

[2021/05/02 16:06]  TamauriL: beautiful

[2021/05/02 16:06]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Bottom are ideas, the stained glass bits I've drawn, the coloured version, the priests, the symbol, and to the right is what the people of Somniatoris thought the Somniator might actually look like.

[2021/05/02 16:07]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): If you're interested, here are some of my moodboards:

[2021/05/02 16:07]  Nyanka (nyanka.jinx): Beautiful work

[2021/05/02 16:07]  Silent Alchemi: holy cra that's talent

[2021/05/02 16:08]  Nyanka (nyanka.jinx): YAY! Playlists!

[2021/05/02 16:08]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): This is amazing, thank you!

[2021/05/02 16:09]  Wither Fang (crazywictor): Pinterest is amazing when looking for inspiration, indeed!

[2021/05/02 16:09]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Walton, my followup question was going to focus in on specific inspirations for Somniatoris and you have already more than answered!

[2021/05/02 16:09]  Dawny Daviau: That list on Spotify will be listened to while working! :)

[2021/05/02 16:09]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Thanks for being generous with your sources, this is fascinating ... I did not expect you to say you started with music

[2021/05/02 16:10]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): So, instead, I will ask about the story ... you've said you start with music, then images, then story ... how detailed a narrative do you create at the beginning? Or do details emerge with the build?

[2021/05/02 16:12]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Details emerge with the build as I add more elements to it; tying it all together and forming a culture from artifact to artifact. When designing the priests for example, I focused on the culture of mourning, and once I get that down, I start developing the people, and how they approach the world around them. The writing is done in between breaks from meshing, I do develop something concrete in my mind first, but that never gets jotted down in the same detail as designing the visual aspect of the lore.

[2021/05/02 16:13]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): ... Let's note here that the moderator (me) is in awe of this process :)

[2021/05/02 16:13]  Second Life: Now playing: By Lantern

[2021/05/02 16:14]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Walton, you’ve worked with an incredible team to bring this creation to the Faire. If you could, please introduce Victor, and the other team members here tonight, and then perhaps share something about when you bring in collaborators and how you work together. 

 

 If we look to film directors as examples, we go from Hitchcock who controlled his films down to the individual frame, to Altman who didn’t even write dialogue but instead put his actors in a space and told them to get into character and talk. What does your process look like once you start working with a group?

[2021/05/02 16:14]  Second Life: Now playing: Turning Point - Turning Point

[2021/05/02 16:14]  Mary Layton (elizabeth.burleigh): A Somniatoris Arx Tarot would be a magnificent thing, I reckon.

[2021/05/02 16:14]  TamauriL: oooH indeed would :)

[2021/05/02 16:14]  River Moonstone (intotheabysmalnightsheflew): I second that.

[2021/05/02 16:15]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): The process begins after I set down my idea, type out a brief document about my concept, and begin to start contacting members of my team who specialise in specific areas that will help with the morale in this sim's creation. Once I have a concept, idea, and everything on paper, I go to Eckenfeld and work side by side with him to get the theme song of the sim exactly how it is heard in both of our minds (which will be released as a gramophone this week, so stay tuned for that new release!).

[2021/05/02 16:15]  Baran Breen: Somniator has a jewel on its forehead before he turn into skeleton ?

[2021/05/02 16:16]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): From there, I start meshing. Good lord do I keep on meshing in between new releases for my store, because the number of parts needed to be done for this city is quite a task! I worked to the bone to ensure every mesh part uses as few textures as possible (and most of them share the same single texture using various tricks), rendering this entire build down to a mere 43 textures numbering to a total of 53,504kb VRAM - this low number is due to the use of 512 textures. Once all is done, given custom level of detail, I start gathering the rest of my team of enthusiastic friends and staff who share the same mindset in creating a wonderful place to start putting together buildings. It's like a work party where we share techniques we discovered along the way, and it helps take some weight off my back while I put all my effort into the main art pieces seen on the sim.

[2021/05/02 16:17]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Then Alkaia Exonar, my scripter, rolls in to work on clever and low lag scripts made specifically for high performance in crowded sims, which you can see in the swinging thurible that barely affects the sim's resources (despite people assuming so, but actually we're facing some sim server issues which is already addressed for next year's FF), and sound design is worked into the sim with very few clever scripts that help spice up things from sounding too repetitive. Everything in this sim is original work: from sounds, to sculptures, to scripts. All of it is tailored for Fantasy Faire and nothing more (unless we decide to do a spirit of it after the faire in the future). I keep tabs on every aspect of the build: from texture number, polygons, and scripts. It's probably why, despite some FPS issues from server and vendor lag, that this massive city loads quite fast, despite the scale.

[2021/05/02 16:17]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Victor here is the Co-creator of Contraption and focuses on releases during the event such as the Somniator's prayer beads, though, has done the lamp posts seen on sim (and on sale here), and the large cathedral engine next to The Somniator behind me.

[2021/05/02 16:18]  Aoife Lorefield: So you are considering art + story + tech constraints from the beginning ... amazing

[2021/05/02 16:18]  Second Life: Now playing: Arigto - Fragile Resistance of Falling Silent

[2021/05/02 16:19]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): I am fascinated that your first collaboration is, again, music

[2021/05/02 16:19]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): We have a question about a specific inspiration ... which I think can we considered more generally ... and here's the question:)

[2021/05/02 16:20]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): "Is the swinging censor based upon the one from San Juan of Compostela in Spain?"

[2021/05/02 16:20]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): (feel free in answering to point to any other specific pieces that inspired you)

[2021/05/02 16:22]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Correct! Some bits of inspiration that pushed this build is catholicism in spain, skeletons of saints and important individuals that have been decorated for worship and viewing, and my favourite of all: Giant skeleton hoaxes, except this isn't a hoax in our world - just a strange mystery.

[2021/05/02 16:22]  Second Life: Now playing: Arigto - Fragile Resistance of Falling Silent

[2021/05/02 16:23]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Excellent! ... I did see the Spanish influence ...  and myself am fascinated with reliquaries, thank you :)

[2021/05/02 16:23]  Victor E. Eton (western.wanderer): Indeed, there are some truly beautiful examples of jeweled saints and martyrs out there that’re immortalized under regalia.

[2021/05/02 16:24]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): As much as I wanted to jewel the Somniator, after a lot of thinking I feel like the people would probably leave it intact and decorate around it, like with an entire cathedral city

[2021/05/02 16:25]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): nod ... I can see that :)

[2021/05/02 16:25]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): I have another work process question, which could apply to any of the team ... Are the skills and artistry you use here things you do for creative exploration, or are the skills we see here in this work related to your RL work?

[2021/05/02 16:27]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): The illustration and visual direction are related to my RL work. The 3D art of things is actually creative exploration and interested in doing 3D things on Second Life and other virtual world platforms in particular. For the others -- I'm not sure! They can answer that if they wish.

[2021/05/02 16:28]  TamauriL: would be Both I would think ... for each of you in many regards

[2021/05/02 16:28]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Team members, if you want to reply to that question, I will copy your answers to get them into the chat relay :)

[2021/05/02 16:29]  Victor E. Eton (western.wanderer): A little bit of both, when it applies to myself. My RL work often includes in depth design and fabrication processes of real world products - at the moment, it’s furniture. Therefore, I often find myself more mechanically inclined, so I often design the machinery, robots, etc… for [ContraptioN]. As for artistic exploration, it’s usually the entirety of my body of work here on SL. RL constraints are often a lot more limiting than SL, so I use this platform as a creative medium to do what I wish.

[2021/05/02 16:29]  Aliton Firehawk: Walton made a very well developed build kit that made things very easy to manipulate and work with using SL's built-in tools (snap-to-grid, local positioning, etc). Most of my creative experience was birthed from doing things in the game, so that did help.

[2021/05/02 16:31]  Alkaia Exonar: Coding was something I went to school for as well, so LSL scripting somewhat flows from my RL skill set - though LSL is its own beast and uniquely frustrating in many ways.

[2021/05/02 16:31]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): grins

[2021/05/02 16:31]  ColeMarie Soleil: being good at lsl is akin to hacking lol

[2021/05/02 16:32]  TamauriL: mHm .. true that  LoL

[2021/05/02 16:32]  Aliton Firehawk: Doesn't need to be relayed, but I also do RL coding, and LSL scares me.

[2021/05/02 16:32]  TamauriL: but tis not 'hacking' when used correctly

[2021/05/02 16:32]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): smiles

[2021/05/02 16:32]  Second Life: Now playing: An Awesome Dream - https://fantasyfairesl.wordpress.com/

[2021/05/02 16:33]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Working with Alkaia is a pleasure: bouncing ideas and butting heads about User Experience design and screaming about trying to get things to run as efficiently as possible. Lots of deadline screaming...so much of it.

[2021/05/02 16:33]  Second Life: Now playing: Oath to Order (Remix)

[2021/05/02 16:33]  TamauriL: you all do so wonderfully as a team together

[2021/05/02 16:34]  Ketsui Naidoo: screaming is all part of any process, if its not, you're lying

[2021/05/02 16:34]  Zeelia Ysabel: reeeeeee, I know it well

[2021/05/02 16:34]  ColeMarie Soleil: l o l or crying

[2021/05/02 16:34]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): We've talked some about your own process, Walton, and specific inspirations ... and then about the team ... now I'd like to ask a bit more about Somniatoris

[2021/05/02 16:34]  TamauriL: if no screaming, then tis not worth the creation  LoL

[2021/05/02 16:34]  Faust Steamer: Screaming and lots of tears, which is what this entire build floats on LOL

[2021/05/02 16:34]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): also yes, Aoife!

[2021/05/02 16:35]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): I've had several questions from the audience about what happens next ... Do you have more plans for this amazing place?

[2021/05/02 16:35]  Dreamsphere Zeimer: Well i swore i thought i saw one of the team shooting cannon balls at the other before opening ..* smirks* i wonder what THAT was about?

[2021/05/02 16:35]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): SO MANY people want to know more, see more ... are there plans for post-Faire Somniator tales? experiences?

[2021/05/02 16:36]  Dawny Daviau: Hence that Walton might have a detonator in his hand ;)

[2021/05/02 16:36]  Mary Layton (elizabeth.burleigh): ...Tarot deck...? ;)

[2021/05/02 16:36]  Dreamsphere Zeimer: /me giggles at DAWNY

[2021/05/02 16:36]  TamauriL: better to go with many, than alone :)

[2021/05/02 16:36]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): I have no idea. We could have an incarnation of it not built for shopping somewhere for fun, or maybe it'll just be away for a while and surface again some other time. I am really happy with how this build looks however, so it is a possibility!  We haven't quite thought way ahead for that, but we hope you enjoy the experience of the sim while it's up until May 9th.

[2021/05/02 16:37]  TamauriL: I do love the tarot seck idea

[2021/05/02 16:37]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): OK, wow, and that inspires *me* to spend more time here in the next week ... this is a very generative place

[2021/05/02 16:37]  Michele (michele.hyacinth): /omgoodness the sim is magnificent

[2021/05/02 16:37]  Wither Fang (crazywictor): Tbh, I'd love to be able to visit Somniatoris Arx outside Fantasy Faire. It's just so grand and magnificent. It's not often you feel small on SL, but It makes even the literal colossal avatars to feel small.

[2021/05/02 16:38]  Victor E. Eton (western.wanderer): As with a lot of work that you spend too much time staring at… I think it may disappear into the fog for a little while, with a small chance of perhaps resurfacing somewhere, somehow again in the future. Enjoy it while it’s out!

[2021/05/02 16:38]  Baran Breen: Still missing Auxpass

[2021/05/02 16:38]  ꜱᴄᴏʀᴘʏᴜꜱ ʙʟᴀᴄᴋ (scorpyusblack): Yes

[2021/05/02 16:38]  TamauriL: tis a most grand City.... to stay in our hearts forever, even if we need await its return to roam in

[2021/05/02 16:39]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Walton, I know you've seen the suggestions for a Somniatoris tarot deck but perhaps the entire audience here has not ... have you ever, or would you ever, consider something like that?

[2021/05/02 16:39]  Arcanis (amabelthewitch): I am fairly sure that there are many wonderful things that you could do with the setting, it is very unique and creative, I greatly enjoy high-quality world settings and getting to know more about Somniatoris is inspiring to say the least. ^^

[2021/05/02 16:39]  TamauriL: I would pay anyway possible to play a deck as such

[2021/05/02 16:40]  Ammon Darkmatter: If only sims weren't painfully expensive. A shame to see such a nice build be put in a box.

[2021/05/02 16:40]  Tamlorn Carterhaugh Wood (tamlorn): A tarot deck would almost need a story to go with it. The characters and personalities of Aomniatoris Arx to populate the Major Arcana

[2021/05/02 16:40]  Baran Breen: Let's not kill the man with tarot deck shall we? :D

[2021/05/02 16:40]  Resa Nova: im beside you

[2021/05/02 16:40]  Prokofy Neva: If you do the bird hunt you get a commemorative plaque of the Somniatoris

[2021/05/02 16:41]  Dawny Daviau: Maybe an Oracle deck be nice?

[2021/05/02 16:41]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): smiles

[2021/05/02 16:41]  TamauriL: indeed, the plaque tis beautiful as well

[2021/05/02 16:41]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): Hmm I could! I am getting attached to the aesthetic, however, it does take a lot of work to cover all of the cards to make a deck. Certainly something to keep in mind though, I'm glad you're interested in the aesthetic and idea!

[2021/05/02 16:41]  Mary Layton (elizabeth.burleigh): Oh, yes - an Oracle deck might be a bit easier to do

[2021/05/02 16:42]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): I love this reply! And would note that art decks are sometimes released with only the Major Arcana :)

[2021/05/02 16:42]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): <--- is a tarot reader and fan :)

[2021/05/02 16:42]  Wither Fang (crazywictor): Maybe make a miniature version of Somniatoris Arx inside a little glass case for us to decorate our homes with? I'd love to place my tomatoes inside it!

[2021/05/02 16:42]  Tamlorn Carterhaugh Wood (tamlorn): I am as well

[2021/05/02 16:42]  TamauriL: tis an idea to roll through such great brains for sure...  I do look forward to the next release of the music of this grand city

[2021/05/02 16:43]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): LET ME SAY THAT ONE WAY to recognize and appreciate this amazing build is to donate to the RFL kiosk over to my left, near the FF posters!

[2021/05/02 16:44]  Arcanis (amabelthewitch): I agree, a miniature replica of Somniatoris Arx would be a great way to keep its spirit alive for the future, whether should you ever choose to bring back the sim in another form in the future or not. ^^

[2021/05/02 16:44]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): and we all know the cause we're here to support deserves the best we can bring, as Walton and his team have given their best :)

[2021/05/02 16:44]  Western Wanderer: Yes, Fantasy Faire and Relay for Life is a wonderful cause! Donate what you are able and get some incredible items to go with it.

[2021/05/02 16:44]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): SO PLEASE LIFT THAT TOTAL :)

[2021/05/02 16:44]  TamauriL: tis our best that we may giveth our monies into these kiosks .. for not only its numbers in the name of this City but for such a grand cause as well

[2021/05/02 16:45]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): OK ... now we will let Somniatoris go just briefly as I ask ... what comes next for you, Walton, and your team? A focus on ContraptioN for a bit? Or are there new big plans brewing?

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): so far, ale and sleep are big on the list :)

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Ketsui Naidoo: 1000 year sleep

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Michele (michele.hyacinth): smiles

[2021/05/02 16:46]  ๖̶̶̶ۣۣۜۜ͜ζ ͜͡Flux (fluxa.core): become one with the sleep

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): but also likely more contraption releases, another art build I can't talk about that's small but it'll be charming to look at

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): which makes total sense!

[2021/05/02 16:46]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): This year will be out tenth anniversary at contraption.  A WHOLE decade of making content on the grid, so that will be something I'll be working on the next couple months

[2021/05/02 16:47]  Victor E. Eton (western.wanderer): More events! There’s a good, long lineup that I shall need to work on soon; I really have been neglecting the list for too long.

[2021/05/02 16:47]  Western Wanderer: More events! There’s a good, long lineup that I shall need to work on soon; I really have been neglecting the list for too long.

[2021/05/02 16:47]  Ketsui Naidoo: :O

[2021/05/02 16:47]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): also awesome :)

[2021/05/02 16:47]  Heather Melune: congrats on the anniversary!

[2021/05/02 16:48]  Tamlorn Carterhaugh Wood (tamlorn): Indeed, Happy 10th!

[2021/05/02 16:48]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): We're reaching the end of our time today ... I do have one last question but first want to take a moment to THANK YOU, Walton, Victor, everyone, for creating this awesomeness and specifically for being here today and sharing so generously about what had gone into this incredible creation

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): Here is my last question for today:

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Aoife (aoife.lorefield): We can look around and see the wonderment that you have given to the Faire and Fairelanders. What does this event and this community give back to you that you use for future inspiration?

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Silas Merlin: ~ Time to River Dance ~

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Kumi Kiyori: YAY!

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Baran Breen: River dance ? :D

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Aliton Firehawk: Oh no.

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Strifeclaw (strifeclaws): ~ Time to River Dance ~

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Aliton Firehawk: It's begun.

[2021/05/02 16:50]  Juliet Sassypants: nervous

[2021/05/02 16:51]  Second Life: Now playing: Camille Saint?Sa?ns - Symphony no. 3, ?Organ? 

[2021/05/02 16:51]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): The faire and community has given me a chance to actually be free with the things I want to do, and can do, and try to do. My IRL work, I have to work under th direction of others, but in SL, I can see if anyone will enjoy anything else under my own direction.

[2021/05/02 16:51]  Lurielith Illyar: That will surely wake the Somniator.  Beth they never tried that.

[2021/05/02 16:52]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): But to be supported for creating basically any content I feel like is a pleasure and a dream, so We thank you all for giving us the opportunity to do the things we want to do

[2021/05/02 16:52]  Walton F. Wainwright (faust.steamer): (also i don't have to starve doing it either)

[2021/05/02 16:52]  Aliton Firehawk: I want someone to write a fan story of the tinies waking the Somniator via riverdancing and the Somniator joined them.

[2021/05/02 16:52]  TamauriL: we would accept any greatness from this teams brains for you astond us each and every build, no matter how large or how small  <3

ISLES OF TARRIN ~ Sponsored by Teegle

Hello magical planes in the sky!

This region pretty much reminds me of when I bought my Teegle @ SL17B and I scoured all the markets, buying the things I wanted.  I guess since Teegle just released the Alicorn, this is their big deal!  :)

Oh, wait a minute!  :o  :D

"Jarogumo

"The Jarogumo is a creature from Japanese folklore.  When it reaches 400 years old it will begin to prey on humans rather than insects.  It lures men to her home by shapeshifting into a beautiful woman playing music.  As they listen they are wrapped in webs by tiny spiders that she controls.  Jarogumo are intelligent and cold hearted seeing humans as mere food.  They live in abandoned houses, even in busy cities, and kill any who become suspicious of them"

And then I derendered the sign, so you could see better...

OoOoo, paper avatars...!

...And these guys are helping fund a hospital where it's desperately needed:

"The Hope Hostel in Kenya - Building Hope Together

"Fantasy Faire 2021: Building a World Without Cancer

"KENYA HOPE HOSTEL

"GIVING HOPE A HOME IN KENYA

"FROM THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY

"In Kenya, mortality rates for cancer are nearly 80%. As we began to work with the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) in Nairobi, it became clear that the reason many Kenyans do not seek treatment is that they’ll have nowhere to stay after making the long journey to KNH.

"It’s an issue we’ve seen before. We’ve built more than thirty facilities in the United States where those who must travel far from home for treatment can stay for free. 

"The Hope Lodge initiative is one of our most impactful patient support programs, and KNH will be the site of the first such facility to be built outside the US.

"Such a groundbreaking project called for an innovative approach to fundraising. 

"The American Cancer Society began engaging supporters in the US and in Kenya, and for the first time, we would ask a Relay For Life team to focus on a specific project. 

"THAT TEAM WAS FANTASY FAIRE AND YOU ANSWERED THE CALL BY RAISING $50,000. USD!!!

"WE WERE ALL ENERGIZED BY YOUR SUCCESS!

"It also inspired others around the world to join in the effort. This enabled us to expand our goals for the project. 

"We nearly DOUBLED the number of beds in the hostel, allowing for thousands more patients to access this home away from home.

"Fantasy Faire will have a sign in the Meditation Garden at the Kenyatta Hope Hostel that will read 'Donated by the generous Fairelanders of the Second Life Virtual Community.'

"DONATE NOW!

"What is this space and why is it important to The Realm of Rosehaven?

"Touch for more information."

"Rosehaven Fantasy Faire Build

"Hello Faire-goer!

"Welcome to this little tiny piece of the Realm of Rosehaven.  

"What you see here is a slightly scaled down version of the heart of the Realm, the palace.   

This is where we gather for meetings, parties, and formal balls.  

"We've been using a round table for our monthly "Princess Court," and just as in legends of old, it has helped create a feeling of equality among us, bringing us together as more than simply denizens, but as family.

"High above you will see many banners.  These have been custom created to represent and honor longstanding and influential households for their service to the community.

"We have strong roots and a tight knit connection to each other, AND we continually welcome visitors and joyfully embrace those looking to join our community.

"Please accept our invitation to visit and explore our far-reaching trails and vast waterways - we look forward to meeting you soon!

"The Dark

"I once saw darkness (I then opened my eyes)

"I once believed darkness was empty (I then saw it fill with light)

"I once imagined darkness to be cold (I then felt its warmth touch my skin amidst the night of a warm day)

"I once thought darkness could not shine (I then looked up)

"I once felt trapped by darkness (I then opened the door)

"I once supposed darkness was endless (I then gazed upon the sunrise)

"I once hid in the darkness (I then opened my eyes, which filled with light, whose warmth I felt as I looked up, opened the door and was met by the rising sun)

...Now, before we leave this region... lemmie show you the story they put into it...

"The Story of Peaville - 01 - Welcome to Peaville

"Dear Traveller, 

"Welcome to the very special land of Peaville. Peaville was once a vibrant, bustling forest. The animals and all its special little inhabitants lived in harmony with nature, and deep in the center of the forest, hidden somewhere, lay the tiny kingdom of Peaville. No one knows exactly where this place was - some say its special power and energy was fed by good thoughts and deeds. This energy kept the huge forest in balance. 

"But at some point, dark shadows arose and spread across the land. Strangers came - and what had always contributed to the protection and strength of this land gradually turned into the opposite, for not all strangers came with good intentions. They began to rob nature and cut down healthy, strong trees. At some point, these strangers also found the hidden kingdom and they quickly noticed that a special power seemed to emanate from here. Everything in and around this place was even more lush, even greener, even warmer, even heartier and livelier. These strangers decided to search for and attack the cause of this very special richness.

"The good news is, they never managed to invade this kingdom. No matter how many attacked, how strong the weapons were - it did not lead them into the center. But unfortunately, with all these negative actions, the balance of the forest changed. Small, weak plants and animals were no longer fed by the energy of the big whole and perished. The lush green disappeared more and more until the land continued to exist in a duller brown overall picture. The attackers retreated into their predatory structures, planning to attack further, to appropriate the riches of nature and, in particular, to kidnap the inhabitants of the kingdom in order to obtain the secret of Peaville. They stirred up fear, envy, resentment and coldness - and sadly, they even managed to turn some of the Peavillians against their own kingdom.

"According to one legend, Peaville would find its way back to its roots and strength if at some point there was a special sign of love. The prophecy says it requires the union between a member of Peaville's royal house - and an alien royal house of a green-skinned race.... 

"This is where the story of our Sim begins. 

"We cordially invite YOU to go in search of this love, to take the time to get to know Peaville and its special features. 

"Helpful tips for our Sim: 

"1.  if you like to walk along the shops of our sim, please follow the brown path without interruption."

...Which is what I first did... 

"2. if you want to follow the legend around Peaville, please start your journey at the sim crossing to the neighbouring sim "Paer Thura". From here, the individual chapters of the story follow each other in small scenes and lead you across the sim. This route is slightly different from the shopping route. 

"3. No matter which route you choose, we're glad you're here! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. Your visit to our Sim helps to maintain, nourish and strengthen the special energy and protection around the Kingdom. You may be a stranger, but we're happy to let you in. And this is what makes the prophecy come true

"4. For those of you who like puns - they can be found everywhere in the sim and the story - (this already starts with the name of the sim) - be it in the mushrooms, the animals, the inhabitants. Can you figure them all out? 

"Yours sincerely

"Gwe & Mondi"

"The Story of Peaville - 02 - PEA 's Crash Landing

"Philomena Pea, the Crown Princess of Peachtown was deathly unhappy! Her parents had chosen a husband for her - Paco Peach, of all people, the prince from Pealadelphia! And the only reason for this marriage was to bring the two kingdoms together to become even bigger and stronger. Philomena cried bitter tears, but her parents would not relent. So one night she secretly packed her most precious possessions into two suitcases and took her beloved pet Pittie Peagle, a beagle and together they slipped through the hallways.

"She boarded one of the royal hot air balloons, fired it up and lifted up undetected into the night sky. As soon as she saw the thick castle walls disappear beneath her, the lighter and happier she began to feel. 

"Many nights and days she flew in her balloon, crossing the Pearing Sea, Carippean Sea, the Pearsian Gulf, along the Caspean Sea and even the Great Barrier Peaf, when suddenly one night there was turbulence - a storm came up and her little balloon began to tumble. She got caught in the middle of a whirlwind, was shaken and when she found her bearings again, she was plummeting down at a dramatic speed. She reached for her pet in fear as she crashed loudly to the ground. Fortunately for her, the fall was softened by a huge lily of the valley.

"By a miraculous, happy coincidence, her fall was witnessed by Prosperus Peanut, Crown Prince to Peaville. He was roaming the Peaville countryside with his cat Pierce Pearsian and his faithful horse Lilly Lippezean. He rushed to the scene of the accident to see if there were any injured people and could not believe his eyes. There, on the ground, amidst the rubble, in all the desolate brown grass, sat the most beautiful, noble, green-skinned girl he had ever seen. His heart immediately began to pound wildly... and he thought of the stories of his childhood that his grandmother had always told him about Peaville...."

"The Story of Peaville - 03 - Philomena's Hideout

"Prosperus held out his hand to Philomena to help her up. It felt very soft and warm and smelled deliciously of sweet pea. She told him about the crash and her escape from home. 

"Prosperus offered her his horse. He explained to her that the dark forests of the surrounding countryside were a dangerous place, so he promised to find her a safe shelter... A short walk away, they reached a meadow. Surrounded by tall grass and huge PoisonPEA Mushroom, a walnut shell lay there - the perfect hiding place for Philomena. He took her there and she made herself comfortable in the little cave. He felt how exhausted she was, gave her some water and provisions from his bag and promised to check on her again the next day. 

"He hadn't slept all night - his thoughts kept circling around this beautiful green creature. Could the ancient prophecy be coming true? Had fate brought Philomena to his land to strengthen Peaville, to renew it? At early dawn he rode to the meadow, found Philomena slumbering and could not believe his eyes - the grass all around the cave was a lush, rich green. It was proof to him - she was there! She was the jewel that would bring peace, harmony, strength and love back to Peaville. He sat down quietly on the grass in front of her and watched her sleep. 

"Upon awakening she smiled seeing his familiar face! They talked for a while, he began to tell her about Peaville, how strong and harmonious it once was, but that envy and ill will were trying to destroy that harmony. Philomena showed much understanding and compassion, put her hand on his to give him comfort - and his heart beat wildly and so loudly that he thought it would echo through the woods like a drumming echo.... They talked for a long time, shared common interests, both loved the book "Peanocchio" as children. When Philomena was tired again, he politely said goodbye and invited her to a peacnic for the afternoon - then he rode home to his kingdom to make all the necessary preparations. He felt it deep within himself and knew what to do ! "

"The Story of Peaville - 04 - Falling in Love PEAcnic

 "In the Afternoon Prosperus came to show Philomena more of the woods which were withered and seemingly desolate growth which caused Philomena dismay. He had decided to take Philomena closer to the center, the heart of Peaville, and wanted to proceed as carefully as possible. 

"When they arrived at his favorite meadow in the west, he spread out a blanket and asked Philomena to sit down. To protect her delicate skin from too much sun, he set up a small parasol made from a sunflower for her, then followed with a picnic basket filled to the brim with delicacies like peazza, pears, peaches, pearoccoli, and his favorite drinks - peaña colada and peaccolo! 

"Philomena was impressed by his generosity and warmth, her heart always beat a little faster when she saw him since their first meeting - never before had she had such feelings for someone in her life.

"For hours they talked animatedly about various topics - both of them loved music - especially The Peatles was their favorite band! But other musicians, such as The Black Eyes Peas, The Peautiful South, Pearl Jam, Peater Paul & Mary, Peater Frampton, Peate Townsend, Peatula Clark, The Peat Shop Boys, Peater Cetera and The Village Peaple also brought them both into raptures. 

Philomena revealed to him that she loved to play for hours on the peano.. 

"It turned out that both had a great fondness for plants and animals, both loved the buzzing hum of bugs, and the lovely song of peadgeon, peacock and peagull. And there was no more beautiful scent for both of them than that of sweet pea and peatunia.

"They sat until deep into the night and became more and more familiar with each other, when she grew tired, he put his arm around her and he guarded her sleep to protect her from possible attackers. Early in the morning, he discovered that this meadow was also beginning to renew itself again, and green stalks were stretching their heads into the air. Even some flowers had sprung up - all this in just one night! Prosperus picked a few dainty buds and when Philomena woke up, he knelt down in front of her and handed her the bouquet."They are not nearly of your grace and beauty, but please take them as a token of my deep gratitude that you have literally fallen at my feet here, in Peaville!"  Philomena blushed as she took the flowers and a tear of true happiness rolled down her green cheek. "I thank you my wonderful, dear Prosperus. I was a stranger - and you took me in..." she breathed - he leaned forward and kissed her forehead and time suddenly seemed to stand still.  A whisper, a murmur went through the rotten old trees and bushes, the withered blades of grass straightened their heads and a special magic seemed to spread..."

"The Story of Peaville - 05 - The RoPEAdeo Show

"Later, in the evening, Prosperus invited his Philomena to a RoPEAdeo show in. Rodeo is a kind of folk sport in Peaville - because it takes not only power and strength, but also knowledge and intelligence to tame the wild potato bulls. Here, near the gates of the small kingdom, Peavillians met to have fun, celebrate and cheer on their matadors. RoPEAdeo is a dangerous but also bloodless showdown between cowboy and bull ... 

"Prosperus explained all the rules to Philomena and kept close - what was it about her that made him feel so comfortable in her presence? He smelled her pea blossom white hair and also she kept leaning against his strong peanut shoulder. Both enjoyed the evening and cheered on the matadors - ...

"Among all the many friendly Peavillians, however, were a few renegades who watched Prosperus and Philomena suspiciously, even hostilely. They glared hatefully at Philomena, made disparaging remarks in secret, about her green skin, and then ran into hiding to tell their followers of their outrageous observations. 

"Prosperus and Philomena noticed none of this - they only had eyes for each other and cooed in love. Never in their life had the two of them felt so alive and happy.... "

"The Story of Peaville - 06 - The PEAvolution Revolutionairies

"A leader for the rebels had been found quickly - it seemed too easy and convenient to blame the foreign green-skinned one for all their own discontent, desolation, anger and pessismism. They gathered, they ranted and they shouted slogans, they painted signs with demands and statements that was a reflection of the brown, desolate forest landscape outside the kingdom. 

"'Do you want total revolution, do you want victory over the Monarchpea?' the leader of the pack bellowed into his megaphone, and he unimaginative roared and hooted at him as if he were promising paradise paradisiacal conditions. 

"Since they would have no chance whatsoever to enter the kingdom through the main gate and cheat their way past the great dragon guard, they arranged for the next morning to attack Peaville's kingdom at the East Wall."

You may notice this as a similar picture from earlier...  When I cam into these mesh objects, the LOD quality looks much better.

"The Story of Peaville - 07 - The Attack

"The attackers brought a catapult, demonstrators flanked the mob and some even carried clubs and swords- They were blindly determined to follow the hate and board the kingdom without permission.... 

"The defenders of the kingdom were on hand- Peaville's shield, even despite the renegades and doubters, was still strong enough to keep the fortress safe like a shimmering golden dome of light. This place was fed by confidence and fond memories, inside it an obelisk of pure energy and warmth of heart and many small treasures with the most diverse origins, the farthest lands like Pearu, Pealippines, places like Peansylvannia, Pearth, Peaterborough and Saint Peatersburg. The fight lasted for hours, the attackers did not want to give up, but finally had to admit defeat. Like any cowardly, backstabbing community, the Revolutionary alliance crumbled to the same dust from which it had risen. The prophecy seemed to be fulfilled - since Philomena was in the land of Peaville, the good energies grew up and strengthened the whole kingdom in all its different structures."

"The Story of Peaville - 08 - The happea Royal Wedding

"After the attackers were successfully beaten into submission, Prosperus sought parley with his parents. He informed them that he believed he had found not only the love of his life, but had also met the magical being named in ancient stories and prophecies as the savior of Peaville - a person of pure heart, wise decision, good nature, inner peace and green skin.... - Philomena. 

"His parents were ecstatic that his son brought home so much happiness and welcomed their new daughter-in-law with open arms - all the citizens and inhabitants of the small kingdom rejoiced with the royal family. In honor of Philomena, they raised small flags with peas and from then on the pea became Peaville's new royal favorite plant. 

"A few weeks passed and a solemn wedding was held. A large meadow in the east would be chosen, which had already begun to return to old lush green. The trees grew seemingly in slow motion and pink blossoms entwined themselves around the royal arches. The people cheered the wedding couple, the energy and bliss of Peaville was back."

"The Story of Peaville - 09 - The HaPEA - Ending

"After the wedding, Philomena and Prosperus set off on their honeymoon. It was important to Prosperus to reconnect with the original and good values of the country and to re-establish contacts with those countries and regions that had fallen asleep over the years. 

"They used their honeymoon to travel through 20 countries - they met many new beings, became friends, they collected impressions, experiences, moments... They were given abundant gifts - not only material gifts, but warmth, open arms, imagination, loving gestures and words.... Likewise, Philomena and Prosperus brought gifts to all these countries - they received small plantlets of a peanut and a pea, as a symbol of peace and deeply grateful attachment to Peaville.

"Philomena wrote down all these encounters ... and when they arrived back home, her book about these lands was bulging - for example, about the wondrous creatures under water in the land of "Paer Thura" or the strange giant cocoons in "Adracunas" ... or the ... but no, that's another story ... :)

"We say goodbye to you and hope you enjoyed the little journey through Peaville. Feel free to come back here any time you feel homesick or wanderlust, if you are looking for peace or conversation, if you want to discover something or relax. Peaville is our thank you to you as visitors, you as friends, you World Builders, you staff and organisers of Fantasy Faire. Peaville is our kingdom, our monument to all the countless wonderful encounters, the laughter and the tears, the fun and the lightness, as well as the depth. It is our memory of everyone who sadly no longer lives with us, yet remains a living spark in our hearts forever. It is our source of strength and energy and faith that the good in life will always fight the bad and always win. 

"With love,

...I do believe I am now inside an interactive Worldling from last year.

Oh, look, a painting within a painting...

...Here seems like a good spot to insert the "How to Make a Machinima!" event I went to  :)

I arrived early, and found Shyla the Super Gecko (krijon) talking and reading poetry to everyone, much to my surprise.  I do know her from other events in SL, and you may have seen her in some prevalent SL videos. 

...It's a shame she didn't stick around for the Machinima event.

I do believe that Huckleberry Hax, Aisling Sinclair, Chantal Harvey, & Saffia Widdershins are presenting.

This is a close-up of the slide Saffia was showing us.  

She also had a video she made & showed us  ---> https://vimeo.com/90489292

...If you want to follow along in the video of this event (as this was in voice, mostly) ---> https://youtu.be/gnS7TWsbr5k ( + please note that I have edited some chat that did not seem pertinent or relevant, and I also took some grammar correcting liberties):

[2021/05/02 11:11]  Nikira Naimarc: I also get inspiration from music

[2021/05/02 11:12]  Erik Mondrian: Navarathna?

[2021/05/02 11:27]  Adele (jilly.kidd): it's good that people with no money can also make machinima.

[2021/05/02 11:28]  Chantal Harvey: i agree

[2021/05/02 11:29]  Dor (dorian.cao): I'd think finding a set designer that fits with the project can be just as hard if not harder than actors

[2021/05/02 11:29]  Penumbra Carter: / the beauty of machinima is that once you figure out how to capture , the door is open for anything you want to do , not just traditional filming ways

[2021/05/02 11:29]  Terra Volitant: and to take over the whole place and rez stuff all over, not just use the area for filming

[2021/05/02 11:31]  Terra Volitant: well that's hen we diiscovered Rescene and the whole new generation of choreography systems yeah

[2021/05/02 11:32]  Penumbra Carter: / it is so easy to use camera's now

[2021/05/02 11:35]  Erik Mondrian: /me adds a recommendation for the free and open-source OBS Studio (https://obsproject.com/) or, if you're on Linux, another great one is SimpleScreenRecorder. Like the name says, it's quite simple (but still has several different options and gets the job done)

[2021/05/02 11:36]  Terra Volitant: I think a lot of people are using Open Broadcaster now, OBS, that is free and open source, it is for a lot mo ethan just recording so it has a learning curve but it is very powerful and useful

[2021/05/02 11:36]  Penumbra Carter: /read that fraps is not reported anymore, I still use it but looked to use my grapic card, but my computer it too old. So I can still use fraps, but I have heard you cannot update anymore, when did you update last?

[2021/05/02 11:36]  Erik Mondrian: (And recording)

[2021/05/02 11:37]  bainfinch Resident: I use OBS for capture and streaming, max rez is 2k

[2021/05/02 11:39]  Chantal Harvey: really?

[2021/05/02 11:40]  bainfinch Resident: hehehe

[2021/05/02 11:40]  Adele (jilly.kidd): Adobe also run good courses and give free info on book publishing, page design etc

[2021/05/02 11:40]  Dor (dorian.cao): Yes, I have an older Adobe that I can no longer move to a new machine, Adobe blocks it

[2021/05/02 11:41]  Erik Mondrian: /me throws in a link for Kdenlive: https://kdenlive.org/en/

[2021/05/02 11:41]  Penumbra Carter: I use Song

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Penumbra Carter: /Movie Studio 17.0, I got that after over a decade on Sony Vegas

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Erik Mondrian: Avidemux is another great cross-platform (and free/open-source) tool for transcoding and doing smaller editing related tasks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidemux

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Lorin Tone: Yes, Movie Studio by Magix

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Penumbra Carter: Movie Studio is Sony

[2021/05/02 11:43]  bainfinch Resident: this was recently pointed out to me, a real decent free video editor https://www.openshot.org/

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Lorin Tone: Yes Penumbra

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Erik Mondrian: I often use it for quickly shifting audio forward or backward in a file if there are audio sync issues after rendering

[2021/05/02 11:43]  Penumbra Carter: :) It is all groovy, it is fun fun :)

[2021/05/02 11:44]  Adele (jilly.kidd): I see Shakespeare on the screen. Shakespeare is great for SL and for machinima because it has so much great dialogue and little movement of avatars

[2021/05/02 11:44]  Dor (dorian.cao): I'm always on the front side of the camera, and find it amazing how much software is needed for the people making the films

[2021/05/02 11:45]  Erik Mondrian: https://handbrake.fr/

[2021/05/02 11:45]  Lorin Tone: Any Video Converter works well for me

[2021/05/02 11:46]  Dor (dorian.cao): Its amazing how well SL films transfer nicely to large screens

[2021/05/02 11:47]  Penumbra Carter: /you are right Dor

[2021/05/02 11:47]  Terra Volitant: gotta poke the play button a couple times

[2021/05/02 11:47]  Huckleberry Hax: hmmm.... I'm geting a 'player error'

[2021/05/02 11:48]  Chantal Harvey: refresh?

[2021/05/02 11:48]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): "The Speckled Band - Opening" right?

[2021/05/02 11:48]  Terra Volitant: yep

[2021/05/02 11:48]  Dor (dorian.cao): took me about three clicks to get it going, but it's going now...almost sat on a flower though LOL

[2021/05/02 11:48]  Nikira Naimarc: I had no problems to see it

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Erik Mondrian: Indeed

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Nikira Naimarc: very nice the transitions

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Judi Newall: What about zooming & panning, does anyone use a mouse or are you all on pricey Space Navigators? Or what else?

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Glasz (glasz.decuir): beautiful lighting

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): Ohh... nice title transition effect.

[2021/05/02 11:51]  Adele (jilly.kidd): intriguing my dear Watson

[2021/05/02 11:52]  Dor (dorian.cao): Great question Judi

[2021/05/02 11:52]  bainfinch Resident: no worries

[2021/05/02 11:52]  Erik Mondrian: /me loves his SpaceNav

[2021/05/02 11:52]  Penumbra Carter: /judi I use the camera in Firestorm and mess with my own camera, static moving, experiment

[2021/05/02 11:52]  bainfinch Resident: that been the biggest take away

[2021/05/02 11:52]  Adele (jilly.kidd): the navigators can also go dodgy. I had to disconnect mine

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Erik Mondrian: Yeah, Firestorm is supposed to come with its own drivers for it, built-in

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Penumbra Carter: /my camera meaning, what you use to look about in, yea static, movement, mess about

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Adele (jilly.kidd): I use the official viewer but it now makes me look up in the air all the time

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Penumbra Carter: /Firestorm is good, quite fun

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Judi Newall: Very interesting Huck & Penumbra, TY and Terra too!

[2021/05/02 11:53]  Mud Puddles: what tool was that?

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Aisling Sinclair: Rescene

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Chantal Harvey: moondust hud

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Mud Puddles: ty

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Judi Newall: Wow!!

[2021/05/02 11:54]  bainfinch Resident: I discovered a new hack to get the Nav working in the latest windows version.

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): Ohhh... Cool idea! ㋡

[2021/05/02 11:54]  Penumbra Carter: /I script prims to move to be the camera at times too

[2021/05/02 11:56]  Penumbra Carter: / put your camera on a door script, rotational scripted prim, for free and can be quite creative, there are many scripts you can mess with

[2021/05/02 11:56]  Erik Mondrian: One of the nice things with the SpaceNav is you can easily control the max speed of the different kinds of motion using the viewer settings

[2021/05/02 11:56]  Mud Puddles: ty for the talk. gotta go do kid stuff. will look for the recording!

[2021/05/02 11:56]  Erik Mondrian: Or even disable certain axes as well

[2021/05/02 11:56]  Huckleberry Hax: nice trick :)

[2021/05/02 11:56]  bainfinch Resident: neat!

[2021/05/02 11:57]  Huckleberry Hax: I just found rescene on the MP - but not moondust

[2021/05/02 11:57]  Terra Volitant: Try Spot On

[2021/05/02 11:57]  Dor (dorian.cao): Oh they are going again!

[2021/05/02 11:57]  Penumbra Carter: /main thing, start shooting and play with what you want to say

[2021/05/02 11:57]  Terra Volitant: we used Spot On extensively during the Fantasy Faire production of Much Ado and it worked brilliantly. That was for a live performance, but also perfect for filming in a controlled environment

[2021/05/02 11:58]  Adele (jilly.kidd): Singh Albatros maybe

[2021/05/02 11:58]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): I have a question about "Spot On!"....

[2021/05/02 11:58]  Terra Volitant: I remember these!!

[2021/05/02 12:00]  Huckleberry Hax: yes, please!

[2021/05/02 12:00]  Dor (dorian.cao): the camera share hud is EXTREMELY helpful

[2021/05/02 12:00]  · · мσηкι · · (monkicat.giha): yes please!

[2021/05/02 12:01]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): I'm fuzzy on how to START with Spot ON! but would it be possible to choreograph a superhero Stunt show with it?

[2021/05/02 12:01]  Erik Mondrian: /me adds a shout-out to machinima as used for "video art," not necessarily starting with story and/or characters (or even having those elements at all), but focusing on a poem or piece of music, maybe, or a place in SL that really speaks to you somehow

[2021/05/02 12:02]  Nikira Naimarc: will this machinima series also be shown at the next Fantasy Faire?

[2021/05/02 12:02]  Erik Mondrian: Tizzy Canucci is a great SL video artist who approaches machinima from that angle more so than the story

[2021/05/02 12:02]  Penumbra Carter: /video art ! yay! as well, is awesome fun

[2021/05/02 12:02]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): Thank you. I'd like to make a show and possibly Machinima.

[2021/05/02 12:03]  bainfinch Resident: naw

[2021/05/02 12:03]  Dor (dorian.cao): We used to use Huddles, but it was basically everyone does the exact same thing.  So can Spot On do different moves for different avies?

[2021/05/02 12:03]  Erik Mondrian: Likewise most of the videos I've done, which are either very focused on a particular place or are more "experimental" in combining writing with visuals, but not in a traditional sense

[2021/05/02 12:03]  Nikira Naimarc: ahhh.... great, thank you

[2021/05/02 12:04]  DJ Chris (chris62.greybeard): so does it have to be filmed in SL only

[2021/05/02 12:04]  bainfinch Resident: between midnight SL until 7-8am SLT the regions are nice for capture

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Penumbra Carter: /machinima with navidia too

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Adele (jilly.kidd): it's the same on the official viewer

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Terra Volitant: Spot on lets you control multiple people and objects at once all doing different things

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Penumbra Carter: /my computer is too old for my navidia

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Dor (dorian.cao): Thanks Terra!

[2021/05/02 12:04]  Terra Volitant: as I presume do other choreography systems but i am only famlilar with Spot on

[2021/05/02 12:04]  bainfinch Resident: SPOT!

[2021/05/02 12:04]  bainfinch Resident: making notes

[2021/05/02 12:05]  DJ Chris (chris62.greybeard): yeah it works well

[2021/05/02 12:05]  Penumbra Carter: :)

[2021/05/02 12:05]  Erik Mondrian: XD

[2021/05/02 12:05]  Zzri Avian (zri.portal): My favourite shortcuts, indeed, heheh;

[2021/05/02 12:05]  Adele (jilly.kidd): Geo Meek taught me so much, he passed away a month ago

[2021/05/02 12:05]  Penumbra Carter: /ohhh, I did not know that

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Erik Mondrian: :(

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Penumbra Carter: /very sad

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Adele (jilly.kidd): oh sorry I thought you heard at this festival

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Terra Volitant: With Spot on you also don't just control people's movement, you can control every animation that they play, down to very precise time increments, and also move objects, trigger scripted events by calling out info to scripts on channel numbers etc.

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Lorin Tone: I hadn't known either, I'm very sorry

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Adele (jilly.kidd): his films are on Vimeo and YouTube

[2021/05/02 12:06]  bainfinch Resident: :-(

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Nikira Naimarc: :-(

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Glasz (glasz.decuir): I didn't know, sorry about Geo, was great

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Terra Volitant: that makes it fabulous for filming complex shots

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Adele (jilly.kidd): he did so much as a volunteer and was so generous in teaching others to film

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Penumbra Carter: / where is wayland, now that you mention him?

[2021/05/02 12:06]  Adele (jilly.kidd): he also taught me how to get rid of particles as they used to get stuck on film.

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Penumbra Carter: :)

[2021/05/02 12:07]  DJ Chris (chris62.greybeard): lol

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Adele (jilly.kidd): he found the love of his life but his comedy event carries on

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Penumbra Carter: /he was quite funny

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Saer Genosse: When you use the hotkeys to clear your screen in Firestorm, to reset back to normal do you just hit the hot keys again?

[2021/05/02 12:07]  DJ Chris (chris62.greybeard): he was fun

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Lorin Tone: Lauren was great!

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Dor (dorian.cao): Yes Saer

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Saer Genosse: ah wonderful, ty

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Erik Mondrian: /me recommends the work of another amazing SL filmmaker, Neo Geo, from Japan, whose videos are criminally underviewed: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZyrEDyJ_8l_Q8IxseoAM0g

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Judi Newall: Lauren did the voice over for Joy of Music that we made too, wonderful voice

[2021/05/02 12:07]  Penumbra Carter: /okies thanks, nice to see you all, old and new peeps

[2021/05/02 12:08]  Adele (jilly.kidd): Geo was very poor and taught me how to do it all without having to pay for expensive software

[2021/05/02 12:08]  Lorin Tone: Yep!

[2021/05/02 12:08]  Penumbra Carter: /Lorin's sounds are amazing

[2021/05/02 12:08]  Lorin Tone: I enjoyed it very much!

...And then I tried using the "Ctrl" + "Alt" + "F1" for SL screen and camera hotkeys with Xbox Game Bar and couldn't get out of it, so I panicked and relogged...

[2021/05/02 12:10]  Erik Mondrian: Someone (I think Saffia?) mentioned Tutsy Navarathna at the beginning. Including a link to his work here too: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbfOwWpYoWo5l0Tz-q29Tbg/featured

[2021/05/02 12:10]  Lorin Tone: Comment:  Chantal and Aisling are the greatest!

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Chantal Harvey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZMOPUnHnD8

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Nikira Naimarc: I would only say, It was a great idea to make this machinima series here at FF

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Adele (jilly.kidd): Hucks movie was great here. I felt like I was at the cinema with friends, a glass of wine and crisps!

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Lorin Tone: Thank you!

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Huckleberry Hax: :))

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Erik Mondrian: /me adds a shameless plug for his MFA thesis videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlpN9vbAWneZQ52w_7TuGe-5Jg_YcO3xy

[2021/05/02 12:11]  Dor (dorian.cao): Random question before we go... Is Vimeo quality better than YouTube?

[2021/05/02 12:13]  Erik Mondrian: Ouch!

[2021/05/02 12:13]  Chantal Harvey: I prefer vimeo but not sure it's better

[2021/05/02 12:13]  Chantal Harvey: and the streaming to vimeo is crazy expensive

[2021/05/02 12:13]  Saffia Widdershins: I think Vimeo is better

[2021/05/02 12:13]  Dor (dorian.cao): The other SL issue lately is FPS after the uplift

[2021/05/02 12:14]  Saffia Widdershins: and it's certainly easier to deal with music that's legitimately licensed on Vimeo

[2021/05/02 12:14]  Chantal Harvey: that sounds like heaven

[2021/05/02 12:15]  Saffia Widdershins: You Tube algorithms are the pits

[2021/05/02 12:15]  Lorin Tone: Yes, the auto-licensing detection on youtube is frustrating, even if you have all the rights.

[2021/05/02 12:15]  Lorin Tone: Yes, brutal!

[2021/05/02 12:15]  Chantal Harvey: yes remember lorin, the license we bought and still got a warning

[2021/05/02 12:16]  Lorin Tone: 4 times the paperwork!  lol

[2021/05/02 12:16]  Adele (jilly.kidd): That's interesting

[2021/05/02 12:16]  bainfinch Resident: Check the issues Youtube Historian have with video getting demonitized

[2021/05/02 12:17]  Lorin Tone: Right, Aisling.

[2021/05/02 12:17]  bainfinch Resident: even free to use music gets flagged

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Dor (dorian.cao): does it matter what country you post from with either?

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Lorin Tone: On youtube, they automatically mute the audio, which becomes difficult.

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Chantal Harvey: yes

[2021/05/02 12:18]  bainfinch Resident: Youtube nasty about changing their TOS

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Lorin Tone: lol!

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Dor (dorian.cao): /me chuckles

[2021/05/02 12:18]  Terra Volitant: it was kinda hilarious

[2021/05/02 12:19]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): I remember when folks were making videos on Youtube and not for money.... It's gotten weird now.

[2021/05/02 12:19]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): I'm one! I don't care! ㋡

[2021/05/02 12:19]  Erik Mondrian: What's your perspective on the SL ToS, which apparently allows photography in SL without asking but requires machinimamakers to get permission before filming? (Unless that's been changed since I last checked.) I've thankfully never had any issues with the places I've filmed or the place creators, who have generally been happy to have more people see what they made, but I wonder if you know why the distinction was made by the Lab between photography and filming

[2021/05/02 12:19]  Dor (dorian.cao): 48 hours was big on making sure you had rights to use it

[2021/05/02 12:19]  Lorin Tone: I had one instance where I had licensed music, it was a nightmare trying to prove that I had the darn license.

[2021/05/02 12:20]  Dor (dorian.cao): Great question Erik!

[2021/05/02 12:20]  Lorin Tone: Yes, that was horrible, Saffia!

[2021/05/02 12:20]  Lorin Tone: They didn't darn tell us, lol

[2021/05/02 12:20]  bainfinch Resident: and that requires tracking listing time for each song. # of listeners and # of mins listens

[2021/05/02 12:21]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): Exactly DJ!

[2021/05/02 12:21]  Dor (dorian.cao): There used to be a You Tube "non profit" clause, but it sounds like it might be gone now

[2021/05/02 12:21]  ๖̶̶̶ۣۣۜۜ͜ζ͜͡ Savant Sirnah ๖̶̶ (remimon): didn't genus had almost the same problem they were making their own heads until catwa thought they were copyrighting

[2021/05/02 12:22]  bainfinch Resident: and on and on

[2021/05/02 12:23]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): haha

[2021/05/02 12:23]  LULU (lulu6kat): Yes

[2021/05/02 12:23]  Judi Newall: Copyright law doesn't work that way, for music, text, anything. Non-profit doesn't count, it's law.

[2021/05/02 12:23]  LULU (lulu6kat): Well CD maybe not but Digital

[2021/05/02 12:24]  Lorin Tone: Yep, payola went on for decades

[2021/05/02 12:25]  Dor (dorian.cao): Thanks!

[2021/05/02 12:26]  bainfinch Resident: but might be some new options for securing partnership with music distribution services to use their music in exchange for promotions

[2021/05/02 12:26]  Lorin Tone: Yes, true re: Vimeo, Saffia

[2021/05/02 12:26]  Dor (dorian.cao): Yes Vimeo is a lot harder to search...part of why I asked

[2021/05/02 12:27]  Scooby Loochie-Doo (loochie): I have to go prep for camp. But thank you for this enlightening lecture.

[2021/05/02 12:27]  Dor (dorian.cao): Applause!!

SCRIMSHAW WARRENS ~ Sponsored by [Aleutia]

Hey, look!  It's...

Volo Linden  :)

...Who obviously seems to like Tabletop gaming (which is no joke... Milestones Incentives means you donate a minimum of L$100 and be prepared after the fair for some nice gifts from the Creators they've teamed up with!)  :)

"What is /studioDire/ Tabletop?

"Essentially, what is in the /studioDire/ Tabletop - Gamemaster Kit and Player Kit is a skeleton to flesh out. A framework to build on. An empty canvas for players and storytellers to paint a world of their own choosing. I've tried to make it as broad as possible so that no matter what pen and paper roleplaying game one would like to play, whether that's Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, Shadowrun, even Vampire the Masquerade or Call of Cthulu, it can be played with these kits and even be adapted for a particular group's homebrew rules instead of being stuck with hardcoded restrictions.

"The way things normally would work is that someone would decide to run a game in one of the commonly available campaigns/worlds that are already out there or even make their own. They would create a story or use a premade one and gather other people to play in this story. The players create characters to represent themselves. Depending on the chosen campaign, one might want to be a dashing half-elf fighter, or an orcish hacker that has cybernetic eyes, or even an otterkin bounty hunter. The one running the game or game master, would then guide the players through the story with text or voice and give them the freedom to make choices that can take the story in unexpected directions.

"While playing such games, whether or not an action a player wishes to take succeeds is often decided by rolling dice. Often a twenty sided dice, but this can change depending on the game being played. Some games even use dice with symbols instead of numbers. So for my Tabletop system, I've included a working virtual version of every dice that I can possibly think up and even included dice that can have custom faces to be used as symbol dice.

"Sometimes the actions players take might lead them in to combat. They might be ambushed by bandits!.Or they're crashing through the walls of a megacorp's arcology and are now squaring off with security guards. Maybe cultists have decided that they would be the perfect sacrifice to their insane god. When there are a lot of players and enemies fighting eachother, it can be hard to keep track of who is where and what they are doing. To solve this, many games will use a battlemat or map board to represent the location and miniatures to represent the players and enemies at the location. Again with my Tabletop system, I've included working virtual counterparts to this to ensure the best possible gaming experience. The game master and players can very easily re-texture the included Cardboard Miniatures to represent themselves and whatever NPCs they want. But for those that want a grander experience, I'm also making 3D miniatures like the Otterkin Hunters, that work with the Gamemaster Kit's Map Board. Every Tabletop miniature comes scripted with a wide variety of functions that do far more than just move it around the board. A mage miniature can be made to glow when it's powering up a spell. A monster that's gone in to a berserker rage can be colored to show this. A player that's been poisoned can have the skull and crossbones symbol hovering over them. Even more is possible but those are just examples, and each group can make their own rules as to what represents what.

"To round out the game system, I've included a number of other items to add more functional aspects to the gameplay. In the Gamemaster Kit is a pack of markers that can be used to draw out squares of shadowy fog on the map board to hide parts of a dungeon map from the players before they explore the area fully. Also included in the Gamemaster Kit is a Graveyard Tray that will catch any miniatures that are removed from the board to make battles less cluttered and smooth the flow of combat. And in both the Gamemaster Kit and Player Kits, I've included a scripted cell phone that allows for people to drop in and out of a private chat channel to keep game text separate from local chat without requiring a group slot. And finally a set of tintable glass marble counters that can be used to represents whatever players want them to.

"In a very big nutshell, that is what /studioDire/ Tabletop is. A way to play games with your friends in SL, no matter where they might be in the world, and together create a whole new world of inside jokes, adventures, and memories."

...I have suddenly become entranced with this glowing store...

...Because I wondered if this meant it was affiliated with Laurella Benoir's Imagine...  But Delain confirmed that the Imagine store she's involved with, is from a guy named Royal Shippe, who is also the owner of the dance group "The Monarchs" 

---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz_GPdo5Kq8&t=132s  I will still take this as a win, tho, because it's a new kind of amazing!  :)

• Delain (delain.canucci) of ::Color~Alchemists::
• Come check out this beauty ---> @ FF

...I tried coming to a show at Paer Thura, and it was nowhere as good of quality as The Monarchs... Only because I don't think I have my settings refigured out (every time I cammed out to see everyone, a halting stop-motion would occur).  I think it may have something to do with the "anti-griefer Amaretto settings" I put on my crap-top that have carried over from a backup, LOL (originally from: https://www.theamarettocommunity.com/forum/griefers-copybotters/graphics-card-crashers-auctions):

"Hey guys!!

"As all of you guys know, occasionally we have the misfortune of being at an auction and a horrible griefer teleports in and puts on their graphics card crashers and everyone crashes... this sucks for everyone involved and then we all need to log back in!.

"So I thought I would write this up with some settings for you to adjust in your firestorm viewer to stop the graphics card crashers doing their job!.

"Firstly you need to hold Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S to bring up the firestorm debug settings menu.

"Then search for these 4 settings by typing them into the box and then adjusting the values as follows:

"RenderSculptSAThreshold - 114.000 

"RenderAutoHideSurfaceAreaLimit - 114.000 (somethings might not rez correctly at 114, so you can try 150.000).

"RenderAutoMuteSurfaceAreaLimit - 2100

"RenderAttachedLights - FALSE

"These settings will stop your viewer from rendering the graphics card crasher object thus not making you crash.

"Peace out guys!"

Totally takes the fun outta particle shows too!  xD

I know I usually write what these pictures say, but I'm just going to embed the NC I was given when I touched it, instead (it basically says the same thing, but I liked the NC better):

"The Rune Master: Valhalla Daily Hunt

"at Fantasy Faire 2021

"Valhalla ~ Sponsored by Fallen Gods Inc. 

"Dear fairelander,

"Every day of the faire you will be able to search for two runes, 12 days of faire, 24 runes.

Join the sacred hunt, become a rune master with the knowledge and wisdom of the ancients. 

"Valhalla welcomes you.

"How to Hunt

"--------------

"Rune hints will appear daily in the great halls. (Two identical Wooden Long Halls on the top of Valhalla)

"Look for the current magic runes, click them and get a hint.

"With the hint explore Valhalla and find the giver rune.

"Each pair of Runes is available only on a given day.

"Þat kann ek it tolfta,

ef ek sé á tré uppi

váfa virgilná,:

svá ek ríst ok í rúnum fák,

at sá gengr gumi

ok mælir við mik.

"I know a twelfth one

if I see up in a tree,

a dangling corpse in a noose,

I can so carve and colour the runes,

that the man walks

and talks with me."

...Aha, so that's what a kind resident was trying to help me with when I had no clue there was even a hunt and was just shopping and taking these notes!  xD

Well, okay, today I found "Sowilo," "Master the Rune of the Sun, near an altar of Light."

...I dunno.  It'd be cool if they just left all the daily runes out for ppl like me, who just now made it to this region (or like my friends who said this region was too crowded on the first day and couldn't get in!).

At any rate, I might do more of this later.  But at least it's here for reference, in case you would like to do the hunt too, or have already done it!  :)

...Don't forget to do the Spider Story Hunt!

• Polenth Yue of Mushporium
• Get your mushies ---> @ FF

"Eight webs have been stolen by thieves! Find the webs and the grateful spiders will share their stories. Simply click on each web for the story notecard and any other items that were caught in the web.

"All the webs are inside Polenth's Mushporium at Fantasy Faire 2021. None are hidden outside of the building or in any other building.

"The story is 'Useful Kitchen Spiders' by Polenth Blake, who is better known in Second Life as Polenth Yue. More about Polenth can be found at: http://www.polenthblake.com

"If you enjoy the story, consider dropping a donation in the shop's RFL kiosk.

"[Note: There are no images of spiders as part of the hunt. The story is text only and the hunt image is an empty web.]"

Alright, so here's what I found...

"Merry Christmush Sign" is the object part of the prize.  And then you get the first piece of the story...

"Spider Story Hunt 1/8

"* Cellar Spider *

"Fragile things should never be underestimated. The giant spider running over the kitchen floor learns this the hard way. It starts with difficulty running. Something is caught on his legs. He tries to pull free, but the cobwebs just tangle more, as though something is throwing down new ones. He doesn't see his death, because it comes with thin legs and a tiny body that would be hard for him to see at the best of times. He does feel the bites.

"The corner nearest the door belongs to the cellar spider. She stays near the floor in the cooler months, when the giant spider season is at its height. Summer is time for the ceiling web, when the flies are more abundant. She's never had a need for cellars, as the cook appreciates her fly-catching services and the other spiders keep their distance. The exception is a smaller cellar spider, who decided to share the web. The new catch will be enough for both of them.

"Another giant spider squeezes under the door and makes a dash towards the corner. The cook drops a cup over him. The cellar spider doesn't approve, but she rarely shares her thoughts. Better to stay still. She doesn't want to give away her location to the next spider.

"The cook opens the door to release the lucky survivor. A strange voice comes from outside. The kitchen has a visitor, but this one is too big for the cellar spider to care."

The second prize is more story...

"Spider Story Hunt 2/8

"* Time Weaver *

"Time weavers had another name in the distant past. The exact name has been forgotten, but it was something about being orange and tiny. This changed when a mathematician took a good look at the webs, realized the spiders counted in eights, and deduced that the webs were clocks.

"Most people believe that time weavers simply record the time around them, but the cook knows the truth. The web creates time and everybody nearby follows this schedule. Web time is not too different to regular time, but it moves at a more respectable pace. Whether this is faster or slower depends on what each individual time weaver believes is respectable.

"This is why a rush of warm air comes through the open door and the visitor is surprised by the chill in the kitchen. Even with the burning stove, cold creeps out of the walls from the snow that hasn't yet fallen for the visitor."

The 3rd prize has a bunch of stuff (including some notes on how to build with all these things, as scripts and sounds are included in each of these!) and more story, of course...  :)

This one is called "Tacorat Colours Rain Cloud" and when you click it, it rains rat taco particles!  

This one is called "Tacorat Colours Ratbow Cloud."  The rainbow spins pictures of rat tacos (to make it look as if they are running, LOL), and when you click it, this also rains rat taco particles!  xD

This one is called "Tacorat Shell Rain Cloud" and is much like the first one, but it seems the texture is different.

This one is called "Tacorat Shell Ratbow Cloud" and is much like the second one, except for the cloud texture, again.

And here's more story...

"Spider Story Hunt 3/8

"* False Widow *

"The cook fills the kettle, because the first step of any solution involves a cup of tea. This sends the false widow scurrying into the crack between the sink and the wall. He's used to the cook, but has never trusted the kettle.

"This is the first spider the visitor notices. The crescent pattern is distinctive and there are stories told, which are almost all lies. The bite is not dangerous and the false widow would rather hide, but the visitor is not concerned about the truth.

"Once the kettle is gone, the spider returns to his web. The disturbances are worth it. The sink is used to clean the devastation from cooking, which attracts flies and provides splashes of water to drink. 

"A house fly hits the web. An unexpected treat in the middle of winter, which probably arrived from the visitor's spring. The false widow has a few more months to go before he's mature, so he makes the most of it."

The next prize is more story...

"Spider Story Hunt 4/8

"* Truth Widow *

"There are consequences to drinking water splashes from the sink. Sometimes the water contains just enough of the cooking to offer a change of perspective. The truth widow learnt the difference between truth and lies. After a few more drinks, they learnt to rub their legs together to produce a whispering voice. The cook explains all this in great detail to the visitor.

"The visitor isn't paying attention and launches into a long story about things gone wrong.

"The cook says they will do their best to help the visitor.

"The truth widow whispers, 'True.'"

The next prize contains a bunch of stuff too, as well as more building notes (which are a little more in-depth about mesh), and of course story...

This one is called "Orange Dot Basic Staddle Stone (Large)" but there's an identical smaller one also included.

This one is called "Orange Dot Leaning Staddle Stone (Large)" and there is also a smaller, identical one included.

This one is called "Orange Dot Square Staddle Stone (Large)" and yup, you guessed it, a smaller identical one is also included, again!  :)

This one is called "Orange Dot Thin Staddle Stone (Large)" and yup, a smaller one is also included!

And here's the story piece...

"Spider Story Hunt 5/8

"* Giant House Spider *

"The giant house spider was small when she took up residence behind the bookshelf. She waits patiently for quieter times to hunt and for potential suitors to survive the cellar spider's web. She doesn't mind that most of them don't make it. This is how she'll know the spiderlings will survive the kitchen.

"She does mind too much moving of books as the cook searches for the solution, especially when the needed book was left in the other room."

The next prize is more story...

"Spider Story Hunt 6/8

"* Spidermaker *

"Most spiders make more spiders through the old-fashioned method of eggs. The spidermaker is much more direct. The bite causes a slight stinging sensation, headaches, and an almost certain chance of becoming a spider. Some will become spidermakers, but others will take on forms closer to their true nature.

"It's rumoured that the cellar spider was an assassin sent after the cook, but neither the spidermaker or the cellar spider will speak on the subject. What is certain is that visitors don't always have good intentions. The spidermaker has suspicions when the new visitor starts to rummage through the cupboards."

The next prize is also more story...

"Spider Story Hunt 7/8

"* Jumping Spider *

"The jumping spider can see the Moon on clear nights. She can also see the secrets of the cupboard. It's like staring at the Moon, only smaller, and yet bigger, and she doesn't know enough to explain it any better than that. She doesn't know how long she's been in this cupboard, but she's sure it'll make sense eventually.

"A hand brushes by her on the way to the secrets. She whirls around to see two watery eyes. She jumps. The visitor screams and flails. The cook reappears and sees the open cupboard.

"The visitor claims to have knocked the door accidentally. 

"'False,' whispers the truth widow.

"The visitor is paying attention this time and backs away from the voice."

The final prize is the best, with a bunch more stuff (including more build notes on mesh and particles)... 

This one is called "Festive Glitter Mushroom (Button)" and emits particles when clicked.

This one is called "Festive Glitter Mushroom (Flare)" and also emits particles when clicked.

This one is called "Festive Glitter Mushroom (Lean)" which emits particles when clicked too.

This one also emits particles when clicked and is called "Festive Glitter Mushroom (Round)."

This last one is called "Festive Glitter Mushroom (Tall)" and yup, you guessed it, it also emits particles when clicked!

And here's the ending of the story...

"Spider Story Hunt 8/8

"* Crystal Spider *

Every facet of the crystal spider tells a different story. This spider is often lost in dreams of reflection and light. When she does pay attention to the world around her, she looks through her own legs to magnify it and reveal its secrets. She sees that the edge of the kitchen exists in every season, not just winter and spring. She knows that the visiting giant spiders come from a past autumn. She understands the nature of the ingredients used by the cook.

"The crystal spider also looks through her legs at the cellar spider, but what's going on doesn't require magnification. The cellar spider is still grumpy that the crystal spider didn't fall a little more to the left, because those crystals look tasty. This emanates so strongly that even the giant spiders have been avoiding the corner.

"The light shifts and the stories change. The crystal spider goes back to her usual dreams of having two legs and falling backwards. Each dream starts and ends with a slight stinging sensation."
