Web Interface
What a great week!
I got the Web Interface up and running fully now for my grid (go here to see what it looks like), and also found how to synchronise the user and the wi_user tables.
I also got the loginscreen working too. This makes my login screen now look like the OSGrid login screen, with that nifty drop-down list of regions, so you can select which one to arrive at.
I have written the tutorials for the Web Interface now, and under More Tutorials I have added one to change the location within the region that you will arrive at.
I have also updated the Money in Opensim tutorial to include all the latest experience.
Latest on Blue Mars
After all the media coverage of this exciting new Virtual World, and that impressive teaser trailer, I was getting a bit worried that their website has not been updated since early August.
Their news section speaks of two shows it intended to participate in:
25-27 August, Nvision 08, San Jose
3-4 September, Virtual World, Los Angeles
Both shows have long passed but there has been no update to their website informing readers of how the shows went.
However, I emailed Blue Mars yesterday, and was told that they were very busy getting the beta prepared for January/February 2009.
I am on the list of beta testers, and this is one world I really want to visit.
