Planes of Sedia  0.1.4.2

Plains of Sedia is an integration of MUDs and Roguelike games. Plains of Sedia is also used as a D20 storytelling module. All campaigns as they take place are implemented into the game. Creation of the world of Urd in the game is implemented through it's open-source game engine also created in VB.NET that edits the databases in real-time as the game is in progress. The project has recently been ported and restarted.

Well, this should ultimately be pretty substantial should dev continue at a good clip.  Wasn't there somebody recently tinkering/decent at the vs 2008 vb.net slate of things around here?

Incremental updates the likes of which I can't discern aside, it seems the game will now take advantage of the historically HIGH budget, but now free/enhanced, Unreal 3 Engine as it is now being ported over/recreated to use it.

I doubt anybody would've guessed a month or 2 ago that a Roguelike/MUD hybrid thing would soon jump to such an engine, but it makes sense I reckon.  I mean, it used to cost $750K for about the level of access that is now free and being updated actively.

"PLOS 0.1.6.0 is live. Resources Beta 0.1b is live"

What this means in particular is unknown, but a good sign given the progress of events in terms of conversion and such that'd been ongoing.

   Well, let's just pretend it was me projecting an inherent commentary on the many planes of existence the Project space seems to envelop...
