About this blog and its purpose

There are many things to do in Activeworlds virtual reality environment. I've chosen my way. It is a way of a builder. There are also many ways to build. My way is to create a virtual town.

The town is Horizon City. It was established January 2000 and it quickly became one of the most popular cities back then, with hundreds of builders. Besides that the town serves as historic reminder of how things were at Activeworlds, it is still constantly developing virtual experience, displaying latest features and architectural possibilities.

In this blog I will keep track how the things are going in Horizon City and in Activeworlds community.

Rebuilding with Neighbor

I've been re-building nothern border area with neihgbors help and agreement. Basicly, he makes more room and I'll fill it with some landscape. Here is a map of the area.

Building Some Nature Elements

Last year I found out a new method of making landscapes and terraining at Alphaworld and posted some images about it in this blog.

I've made quite much terraining in the city since, but usually left it without nature elements, due the lack of time. Now the first layers of nature have arrived near Mini Fukuoka suburb of Horizon City. Naturally, I plan to make the whole city more nature-like at some point, but that will take some time..

Tri-Bridges and Jump Points

Inspired by a new city that is coming at Alphaworld, I've rebuilt old area near the Horizon City GZ. I had to delete an old bridge that was built year 2000. I don't like deleting old objects, but sometimes old must be go to let new come in.
You can get near this place when you are at Alphaworld by typing ^jump Horizon City. It uses new global chat commands that are implemented in Alphaworld.
