Hey fellow Alphans, this is just a quick note to let everyone know that I’ve ported a second Space 1999 world to VRChat. This time it includes the Corridors, Travel Tube, Airlock, and Eagle Passenger Pod. It’s a little less grand than the Main Mission set but the two are now linked via the VRChat portal system. You’ll find some menu buttons at the end of the main corridor that let you do a whole bunch of fun things.
This PC only world is still in the Community Labs section awaiting final approval but you should be able to find it in there under the name of “Space 1999 – Eagle Passenger Pod”. You can see an overview of the two worlds here… https://en.vrcw.net/world/author/detail/Nova_66
just got back off holiday and tried update 16. What a great update, the lunar landscape looks so much better and the Eagle flying around main mission looks great. Thank you for adding these and other fantastic additions to an already outstanding experience.
kind regards, Richard
Well admittedly there weren't too many new additions in this latest update but I was really excited to be able to start porting the project over to VRChat. It exposes Space 1999 to so many new people and even allows non-VR exploration in 2D flat mode for those people who don't have a VR headset.
As a bit of trivia, the VRChat world has already had 1,575 visits and I hope that at least a few of those people have their eyes opened to the wonderful work from Jerry and Sylvia Anderson :-)
