Building
in SL is not only fun, it's a good outlet for your creativity. You can express
your imagination and ideas. You can build almost everything that you imagine.
By using the right textures and creatively shaping prims, you can recreate
everything in SL that you see around you in real life.
The possibilities are
endless with the building tools available and the numbers of ways you can shape
prims. Building is the core of every virtual world. Everything we use in SL is
made by someone for our use. Many Avies
are curious about how things are made. For example, how a simple prim (box) can
be shaped so intelligently to create all the things we see around us.
Our curiosity leads us to experimentation and
that's how most of us learn the basics of building. Experimenting is a fun way of
learning and its always encouraged, but still there are some residents who want
to try building but somehow they hesitate. It’s either due to lack of knowledge
or they fear that they might mess up things in doing so. Good news is, SL
building may appear as a complicated task at first, but when you learn the
basics then most things become easier. This article will focus on the basics of
SL building and will equip you with essential know-how.
