All your Starbase are belong to us

Posted on September 20, 2006 by

Master SL builder Hiro Pendragon sends out word about a cool simultaneous "multi-verse" release of Starbase C3.  It’s a lot to grok, so pay attention:

  1. There’s a ten year old virtual world called "Starbase C3" which exists as kind of a collective fantasy of thousands of fans who perpetuate the world via 3D models, fanfic, and other documentation.  It does not exist on any one software or internet platform.
  2. Hiro Pendragon is helping the Starbase C3 to invade Second Life by introducing three star ships for sale in-world at 1,000 L$ each (about US$3). (Here’s the direct teleport.)
  3. The same three star-ships are also being sold as real 3D models in various sizes based on the same CAD model as the SL versions.  (The zooming and zap sounds are purely your own though.)

Check Hiro’s blog for the complete run down, if you didn’t get all that.
