vSide: Music Virtual World

August 14th, 2007

vSide is open, the evolution of Doppelganger’s earlier work with PCDLounge and the Tyra Banks world and the vLES stuff for MTV. Looks like there’s a fair amount of people in there.

Edit: PS, they just raised $11m more, for a total of $25m.

    I’d be interested in learning a bit about the evolution of their software. Last I recall they were reportedly using the Torque engine. And it seems I read that they were developing their own proprietary system, but I’m unsure. Anyone?

    Announcement on GarageGames

    Game engine is modified Torque 1.3, 300 clients/server, 7 servers currently. Backend is Java and mySql.

    Thanks, illuminarc. More I think about it, what I’m recalling was probably my own comment somewhere speculating what they’d do with the first round of funding.

    Yep yep, its torque. Older version than the most current even.
