You don\'t seem to get the point quite, Aendar. :o) Ofcourse I know fantasy games are about fantasy and sci-fi games are about sci-fi (thnx anyways /:o) ... But I didn\'t want to put a non-fantasy environment into your fantasy game.
My point was to open _new_ world (more generally oriented) parallelly with fantasy PlaneShift, a world that could became something more than just a game ... When you manufacture bikes you got to have some know-how; and when you have it, why wouldn\'t you use that know-how on biulding a mountain-bike?

But forget it. I see that people around PS don\'t like that idea and I do respect that. :o)

have a nice day :o)

I know that.

> Just find some programmers and create some code.

It sounds almost like \"don\'t bother and do it yourself\". :o) Is this a typical kind of reply when someone posts a suggestion? :o))
(I\'m not capable of writing 3D-... whatever yet.)

> I dont think that there are any projects that fits to your description.

... well, if there were any, I wouldn\'t post the message I\'ve posted. :o)

I\'m not saying to throw fantasy PlaneShift away ... I just believe that opening a new (non-fantasy) world parallelly with the existing one would bring MUCH MORE users in the future (which is what - as I believe - every project on the Net definetely needs) ...

I\'m hungry for some virtual _3D_ world that would grow as people would add their works - also I believe that there are thousands (maybe millions) of people longing for the same thing; and I thing restricting the harvest of fruits of PlaneShift-team\'s work only to fantasy is not the best way to go ... Why not to use the work that is done for another purpose?

If I would start a whole new project on what I am talking about, I would have to start from ZERO - while I suppose that opening the new world without the fantasy-restriction would cost PlaneShift-team much less resources and work ...

Hi :o)

I\'d love to participate on creating some virtual world. But I have to say fantasy in 3D is not exactly what I\'m into, and MUDs are not what I like too much ... (I just like to read good fantasy literature.)

Are there any plans for starting another worlds parallely with PlaneShift? I mean worlds where one could \"paste\" his own 3D-model of a car or some modern architecture, worlds where one could became an astronaut and then fly to the Moon or explore a planet where dinosaurs stil live ... (To be honest - looking for something like that was how I\'ve found PlaneShift.)
Sometimes I would like just to walk, look around and see things I can\'t see in the real world. But fantasy seems to be too restrictive and bounding for me. Than why not to move the frontiers of PlaneShift? :o)

I believe, no - I am 100% sure that there are LOTS of people who don\'t like fantasy AT GENERAL (they find it too silly or whatever), but they like gaming and modelling in 3D too - then why not to give them the oportunity to explore (and participate on) some non-fantasy world?

Things mentioned above would take \"only\" to manage planets as objects - the other stuff related to development and tuning would continue paralelly ... Am I wrong?

If you won\'t do it somebody else definetely will ... No matter how near or far future this is - I\'m sure we all know well that some Virtual World definetely will be created. Why not to start it right now? Why not to be the ones who will start it? :o)

Or - ... is there such a plan?

have a nice day
