Second Life client for OS4?

Now that it's open-sourced (see here), is anyone porting this to OS4?

@COBRA

What is that?

Kind-of Sims-like?

@Raziel

No, it's not a game. It's a system for people to communicate over the internet, but using a 3D virtual world instead of the old chat windows and such. Everyone has a 3D avatar which they can customize, etc. It seems to be heading for great success. You can read about it on wikipedia

@COBRA

Heh. They should have called it "first life". Why would you need to play it if you already had a life?

Actually, it's a lot more like a game than you think. It's definitely a lot more than a communication system. I've never tried it personally, but you can buy/sell virtual property, run a virtual business. There have even been cases of people being scammed in the virtual world. Oh, and people spend real-world money on this game too. Looking at the second life website, you can buy a virtual island for the bargain price of $1000-$2000 USD.

I've tried it... i don't like it very much, but the idea is interesting and original imho.


At least we would have something which use our 3D cards (sigh i want a stable Quake 3).
