DreamWorld wants to be the installer for the rest of us
Dreamword brings your personal OpenSimulator grid much closer to feasible, but it still takes some geekery.
"The Outworldz DreamWorld is a free, pre-packaged Windows-compatible virtual reality OpenSimulator system that is easy to install, easy to run, and easy to use. It is free and is open source."-
- Free and easy. We all like those terms.
- Download the installer
- One-click setup for OpenSim--Sim on a stick by Fred Beckhusen
- Sim on a Stick Users Group (G+ Community)
- You probably would not install it on a memory stick.
- Laptops have plenty of memory space these days.
- My tests show that it is geek-easy. It doesn't seem to take much geekery.
- But it does take some.
- I would still like to see an installer that is normal-easy. Suitable for non-geeks.

- Something that starts with one web click on a browser button.
- The script downloads, unzips, and files everything that is needed
- It then installs the grid software and a properly configured viewer.
- It then starts the viewer, which connects to the grid software and opens.
