VWER Auditorium Build

This week the BG Second Life team had an emergency build project that fell to me to finish. The Virtual Worlds Educators Roundtable (VWER) is a group of 80-100 educators and others who meet in Second Life. This group is moving to BGSU’s virtual campus, and a space is currently being constructed for their meetings and round table discussions. The first phase of this construction was to construct an auditorium for the group presentations. This task fell to me the night before a meeting with a VWER representative, so it had to be completed pretty quickly. We decided to use the space previously used to model faculty offices for the VWER build.

 

When I took over the build, there was a floor and some chairs placed, with a presentation screen at the front of the space.

The first step in this build was to create rows of seats for guests. I used the seats supplied and created rows that radiated from the center. The goal was to have enough seating for 80-100 guests.

After the first two sections of seats were built, I turned my attention to the open spaces around the perimeter of the space. This space had been left open and terraformed to make the space descend into the floor, but now I needed a way to connect the various walkways and asiles with the main seating. To address this issue, I began by constructing some stairs on either side of the media viewer.

Once the stairs were completed and joined to the floor, I put in a side asile on the side of the main seating area.

After the asile was built, I moved the wall on the other side of the space inwards. I did this for two reasons: First, I wanted to make the seating space more symmetrical and avoid a large open space on the other side. Second, I wanted to move the wall to expand the hallway on the other side. We’re still not sure exactly what this space will be used for, but it was a bit narrow to begin with and is now much more open and usable.

With the wall moved, I now had a good idea of how the space in the main seating area could be built. First, I made another side asile to match the one on the other side.

The first place that needed attention was where the side asiles connected the front stairs and the radial asiles. I needed a way to fill in this space and add some architectural elements to the space. I started by placing some triangular prims in the space to fill it in.

On top of these prims, I added tall pillars. These pillars helped to divide the space into a seating and presentation area and the asiles in which avatars could move.

Now that the seating area was clearly defined, I added additional chairs on either side of the radial asiles. The final seating area can hold around 105 guests.

Once the seating area was complete, I decided to work on the walkway on the second level of the space. This walkway goes around the inside of the glass at the front of the VWER space, and can be accessed via ramps by the entrance of the structure. In the future, we may add a second level to this presentation space, so I wanted to make sure that the walkway was integrated with the rest of the architecture. I decided to continue the walkway into the side hallway and added some stairs so that it would be accessible from either side of the seating area.

Once the walkway and stairs were completed, the VWER presentation space was essentially complete.

In the next week I’ll be working on the other half of the VWER space, which is located at the other end of the building. This will have stadium seating and will house the actual “round table” used for discussions.

    Hello! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog.
    Is it tough to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty
    fast. I’m thinking about making my own but I’m not sure where
    to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions? Cheers

    If you like to play with lascivious babes aged 41 and more in their online chats, you’ve found
    a right place to stop. The days of “casual dating” seems to have evaporated even while popular dating sites become more frequently used to find
    potential partners. Now you don’t have to open tons of pages in your browser,
    waiting for your favorite TS’s to show up online. Join the older diva’s show and become
    a part of it by chatting and taking control over the hot beauties’ actions.
    The sex scandals that plagued Donald Trump during the latter part
    of his presidential campaign continued and expanded during his presidency.
    Kyra, who spoke on the condition that her last name not be used to protect her privacy, said that sexual advances from
    grown men were a constant part of the experience.
    We have gathered here the best and most gorgeous looking naked webcam TS models, who they
    proved in time that they have a burning desire to seduce and sexy chatting with their fans.

    If you’re like me and are trying to navigate the waters
    of dating, you may have found that the idea of monogamous
    “dating” has become increasingly popular.
    The idea is to wear a bra that’s closest to the wearer’sskin tone
    to minimize showing through a light or dark shirt.

    The mouth includes Ayu’s top teeth for a naturalistic “nibble” sensation on your head as you ease your way in. Her mouth itself features
    very stimulating ribs, opening up wide so you can thrust deep in to
    the back of her throat (no danger of choking Ayu, of course).

    Finally, the deep throat lair is superb: a fully textured passage
    with three meanders that will glide you along in ways that even Ayu’s actual mouth cannot physically do..
    A high quality lube, Passion Natural Water Based Lubricant reduces friction to make anal/vaginal penetration easier

    used with water based lube.

    a tooth pulled outright without any painkiller at
    all at another time) done without either, and while my pain threshold is high,

    I’d say was honestly all that terrible. I’ve certainly been through way worse in my life.

    sex toys Another problem with the bustier is that it is just
    not flattering on me. I’m not sure if it is the material or if it is the sizing problem, but the bustier
    seems to accentuate my problem areas. More specifically, it makes my stomach
    even more pronounced. As it stands, no new editors are being approved, so I
    don know if submitting an application will get it read by
    anyone. However, I hope that perhaps Ilya will see the response perhaps and think about
    letting new people edit. I think the problem may be that many who are currently editors are simply not here right now for whatever reason, are too busy, are just tired and
    burned out, or something. sex toys

    For dildos, I like silicone if they going to be inserted into anyone,
    because they can be used without a condom.
    And, as Rin said, silicone easy to take care of and VERY durable.

    The Summer Prince follows June, the self proclaimed “best artist in Palmares Tres” and
    relatively typical teenager, as she squabbles with her mother and works on cheeky performance art stunts with
    her best friend, Gil. But Gil falls for Enki, who has just been crowned the

    Adult Toys I named my turtle Dribble while I was walking home from Jimmy’s party. I live at 25 West 68th Street. It’s an old apartment building. I could never hope for any semblance of a normal sexuality: nervous first kisses, or holding hands on the way home from school. I was the most unpopular girl in school; I’d never date anyway. I even isolated myself from my sister because my performance of a disinterested, desexualized person had to be ironclad. Just blindly creating the guesswork of what indexes might be missing, is. Not too good an idea in general. There should be more thought put into creating indexes.Anyway, your error is pretty self explanatory, 0 is not a valid number for a fill factor. Adult Toys
