I have an openspace sim and I'm wanting to make it a roleplay sim for vampires and other creatures of the night. However, I seem to be running out of ideas. If anyone has any ideas that would be helpfull, please, share them, and, no, it's NOT a Bloodlines sim.



Thank you

honestly, in my opinion, this kind of thing seems to be done to death (pun not intended). there are plenty of other vampire role play sims around, full sized sims too, not open sims where lag can and will be a massive problem, especially if your useing weapons.

if i were you i would use the open space sim as a personal space for yourself and friends. put up a castle and a graveyard or any other buildings you like (i'v always wanted to get myself one and make a haunted forest type setting, sleepy hollow style). try keep scripts to a minimum and just use it as a hangout rather than try and run a roleplay area from it.

whichever way you go tho good luck, i hope it works out

well to be honest i would set it up where goth vampires were staked on site; sent home before they rezed even.

you see most good vampire fiction is taken from the monster that hides amonst us if your dressed like a vampie goth you stick out to much.

think more along the lines of angle or forever knight you old really old but your trying to hide that fact, thats real rpg not getting dressed up in a coustume and let it do the acting for you

just my two coppers

Openspace sims are horrible for the type of use you are talking. I visit an RP Openspace sim and its lagged so badly that it is hard to use scripted items there.

You should use it for a personal space, or really develop a serious RP idea and save for a regular sim.

What Briana said. Take a trip to Remembrance, main sim in the Norsim realm a full sim that ratchets down to a crawl when its hopping. Open sim, might work if everyone stays in their coffins, the non-sex kind.

RP + OpenSpace = Epic suffering... And, If all you have is the openspace, that means you're not the owner, you're renting. So be careful if you consider investing too much time/monies into it. Come the day your landlord loses his/her scruples, your efforts will go down the pot. (=_=)y
