Virtual Reality Room

How would I go about creating a Virtual Reality Room? You know the kind your in a big square and you see a scenic view all around you. I know I need some sort of rezzer so that all the pictures rezz at the same time. Is there a tutorial out there to teach me this. Please point me in the right direction.

One spot you can look at:
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Holodeck

That is a list of holodeck products in world, plus a pointer to script source if you want the bits to roll your own (that one has instructions along with the scripts).

On the SS GALAXY, there is a holodeck. go take a look and see if that is what you want. As you surmise, it is a big cube, and it rezzes a texture on the inside to look like a garden, a bar, or whatever.

If you stand in a garden, and take a photo in each direction, you can upload the photos to SL and put them on the walls. However, it takes some effort to make it look really good. Learn by doing

Another approach in SL is to actually rez the objects. You want a garden? Create a garden with all the flowers, buses, birds, and bees. Then put a script inside each one that allows you to capture all the object properties. Then drop all the objects into a master rezzer prim. When you want a garden, it rezzes all the garden objeccts in their proper location. As Viktoria says, there are products...SEARCH in world or at SLExchange.

If you use Photoshop there is a tool for creating panoramas. It needs a special (not so special) set of pictures to start from. Imagine standing, taking a picture, turning, taking the next and repeating until you complete the circle. Each pic needs about 1/3 or 1/4 of the proceeding picture in it. Ideally one uses a tripod to keep the camera tilt constant. But hand held works ok.

If you need the overhead and ground, you will need to tilt the camera up or down and repeat. But this gets messy and image distortion creeps in. It is more of a problem to handle the ceiling and floor. It can be done.

Photoshop’s panorama tools will stitch the images together. Slice the panorama into 4 pieces and you have the walls. You need to do some work on the ends of the panorama to make a sort of seamless texture and hide that seem. After your first panorama it goes really fast.

Edit: Of course if one used a cyclindar, the pano would not have to be cut up. Then there is the image quality... 4 walls might come out sharper.
