Part of the attractiveness of computer games is the visual eye-candy that splashes across the television screen. But even the addictive images is only half of the equation. The leftover half is the magic bestowed upon our eyes when this images comes to life. Animation that's controlled by a game player is all it needs to escape into a different place and time - a place and time brought to you by VR. I was actually impressed when I first saw Miscrosoft release it's latest extension, I went out to buy Kinect that very same day which mixes both visible and physical entertainment.
As you can imagine, virtual is a hypothetical three-dimensional visible world created by a PC. Players can enter and move about in this world and interact with objects as if inside it.1 Some of the games that are already on the market give a rather good idea of what virtual is and can do. Video games like Zelda, Radiance, or Harry Potter permit players to enter into an environment and engage with objects, but they don't permit the player to make an environment and that is what virtual worlds are all about.
Without a single ounce of programming experience, any person can create a virtual world and have heaps of fun doing so. All one needs is an idea.
To begin, you will need to construct a plan that maps your notion of the ideal world, the maddest world, or the strangest world you can imagine. Some virtual world software will give you a template of sorts (a "starter" world) that will let you make additions and eventually build a world that you have always dreamed of. A good example of template use is within Maxis ' SimCity or SimTown games. Both games provide pre-designed environments that provide lots of space and chance to shape them into one that you like.
Of course, you might always begin from ground zero. The sole difficulty with starting with scratch is that it takes more time and data to add some of the features that virtual worlds provide. Either way (from nothing or from a template), most users build a world by adding objects and eventualities - even deleting some until they've reached the ideal balance.
A good place to find examples of what you could build in virtual world gaming is online. Each virtual world programme available offers sample environments that players can download and install into their own system. Some manufacturers of these games even hold contests and award winners with free upgrades. Other suitable places to find ideas are from fiction books: -historical, -fantasy, -futuristic, you say it. Science fiction pictures are a good resource for ideas as well.
Just understand that virtual gaming takes time. Rome was not built in a day and neither will your virtual world. There's no rush and this is a relaxing past-time. Take it slow and have a good time. Do not fret over without knowing how to build an object or lay down a map - you can learn the way to do these types of things in due time. Your goal is to make an entire world of enjoyment and it won't help if you find yourself irritated all the time.
When ready, you are able to add characters with their own unique histories, habits, strengths and weaknesses. You may even give them goals or tiny jobs to perform across the game. Giving your characters goals and tasks will help you give the game a plot.
