Sim Designers/Builders?

Any recommendations of Sim Designers/Builders?

Trying to get names of Designers with experience creating great natural environments ala Lost Gardens of Apollo or Straylight. The ones I've found so far are not building anymore.

Thanks!

Check out the thread, I've seen some of her work on Flickr and it's pretty good. thinking of contacting her for my sim developement.

Wilder skies at wilder west was my last sim design
deep water sim with lost city for divers.... Aircraft carrier full sim long.
proof that if you build it they will come : )

Try this thread on the best sim developers, I visited a couple, they were good:

Thanks for the replies Stormy, Niki and Nika...

Nika: I can't believe I missed that thread... i know, i know, search is my friend... I tried but it did not show up in the results.

Niki: I can't send you a PM since you have those disabled.. I'll try to get in touch in-world.

i can build great natural environments, and i'm not talking cardbaord or linden trees. all work would be my own

Niki's aircraft carrier is VERY impressive. Everyone should go check it out even if they aren't looking for a sim builder. There's also a neat little club built into a plane crash site. Somehow I missed the underwater lost city. Maybe it's been added since I've been there. I'll have to go back and check.

You can get a free plane and fly around the sim too!

Hardly anyone mentioned in that thread (including me) is a professional "sim developer". I have built a couple of full public sims that I'm very proud of, for example, but I do not offer sim building services professionally. And like many other rental estates, I may have designed the basic shape of my rental islands, but it's the tenants who provide the builds in those sims.

I can, however, make a recommendation: Ceera Murakami (a regular at this forum), does offer professional sim building services, and has been doing so for some time.

None of my other friends who do large scale builds accept contract work. These days it's kind of difficult to find someone who will do contract sim-building work for private residents. Most of the talented full-sim builders are charging thousands of RL dollars to external companies who want an in-world presence. (And despite all the negative PR, companies are still coming into SL.)

try posting in help wanted, there could be some lesser known professional sim builders (depends I guess on what one considers professional)

you just might find a diamond that no one has discovered if you post there

I have fiddled with building sims, and it is not a small task, nor one anyone should take lightly

I charged way less than I should have for the first one, and well the second was my own project I just had fun with

you should be prepared to shell out a hefty sum of money if you wish to hire a well known professional builder to design a sim

good luck

Dude, I would never have found it, I bookmarked it when it was created!

G'day Derbor, i'm part of a group that designs sims, if you have a look at my profile inworld and go to my swamp in picks, myself and most of the people that rent on that sim and the surrounding sims are part of the team. 'Unmapped' a sim to the far west of that one (and is also in my picks) is one we have built together. we are still fairly new but would love some work to promote ourselves. I myself am just a builder but i'd be happy to show you around our sims and introduce you to lorin tone and klang wopat who are alot better at talking to you about pricing ect. send me an IM here or inworld, would love to meet up.

cheers

Check my profile..my picks..might not be your style..message me if your'e interested.

I've done approx 8 SIMs in the past year. and a few larger parcel builds..clubs..welcoming areas etc.

Cant Say its all my own work but I do have a team of subcontractors for scripting, sculpties and complex 3 d textures.

I can build spheres and boxes. If you want a sim full of spheres and boxes, I am your man.

Hey I've seen some pretty nifty spheres and boxes

Check out Anastasia Hawks, she's great...see her profile pics for examples of some of her work. Great lady..

Birgit Broome if she's still doing it.
