Class 4: assignment 4: Mars Rover

For this assignment, I used the Mars Rover Sojourner as a model.

However, mine has some modifications, such a telescopic camera mount.

Getting started

I had some trouble keeping it all together

And then I remembered how to link items

I linked all the wheels with the body so they all stay together on the same axis

I lifted my rover to demonstrate that all parts are linked

not quite done, needs a camera mount

And why not a telescopic lens  on top!

From afar, it is all done. (albeit not so great!)

Class 4: Assignment 3: OpenSim Group Build

Suzanne Veiga and Noah Benjamin-Pollack worked with me on this task

They started on the house...

While I threw down a pool

Noah and Suzanne did some landscaping...

And laid down a nice walkway to the pool for us

Suzanne came in and helped me out with the foundation for the pool

Finished Product!

All that work just gone! Demolished!

Class 4: Assignment 2b: Navigating small spaces

My view was blocked under this tree

I move my mouse roller forward to change to mouse view, now i can see the moon from beneath this tree

As I walked onto the porch, the roof obstructed my view from the camera angle I was using

Going to my menu and selecting Camera Controls, I can zoom the point of view in and see my avatar from the ceiling of the porch point of view

Class 4: Assignment 2a: OpenSim appearance

I changed his pose so that his arms are facing down and his legs are spread out

I made his torso as skinny as can be, and he is as tall as is possible

There are no outfit changes for the dragon, but I did raise his head a bit higher, as well as the height of the wings on his back

The finished product

Class 4: Assignment 1: OpenSim Avatars

TRYING in OSGrid. (It said my outfit was downloading, but after hours it was still just a white circle, so I switched back to Second Life, where I was able to edit my Dragon avatar.)

Sitting down in Second Life

I changed the color of my avatars horns, wings and tail

I made the head 72% transparent so I can see through to his eyes

I changed the camera angle to be an overhead, nosebleed section shot
