The Pool Party Abiogenesis was a big success! Reportedly there was over 100 members at one point! It was a beautiful show for sure, many lucky deer being given the beautiful Luchador masks. The Abio Cam was also said to be a wonderful new addition (though I forgot all about it!). A big thanks to the Twin Gods for throwing such a lovely pool party.

I expect to see lots of screenshots soon!

If you missed out on the Abio fun, there are some videos you can watch to see what went on.

Toboe taped the entire thing, which you can watch here: [link] [link] [link] [link]

And I myself taped a few of the best parts, which you can watch here: [link]

And you can listen to the Abio music here: [link]

Feel free to send in your own if you recorded as well.

New Update: Unfortunately there will not be an Abiogenesis in 4 days, which it was originally going to be for the Summer Solstice. Michael stated, "Simply because we want it to be a Forest Pool Party and the weather hasn't been very good here in Belgium. So we weren't inspired."
Hopefully once the weather gets a little nice the Twin Gods will throw us a pool party!

Old Update:"We had planned to do an Abiogenesis this week. But with the server troubles, we have postponed it." says Michael, one of the creators of The Endless Forest.
There is talk of a Summer Solstice Abiogenesis going on right now, but no confirmed dates as of yet! I will make sure to keep you updated.

I'm already excited, I hope everyone will be able to attend!

There is Yet Another Windows Virtualization software. This time one that does NOT require you to install windows on the machine AT ALL! CrossOver Games is a fancy, 3d optimized, re-packaging of Wine software emulation. Thus it works for both Mac and Linux to emulate an environment compatible with many PC video games.

However, tests with getting The Endless Forest up and running with it were mixed.
The GOOD: It does a really fantastic job of running the game! It speeds along at over 30 FPS. Since it doesn’t require a real Windows installation I had it installed and was playing in a matter of minutes. CrossOver Games is alot less expensive than VMWARE or Parallels and since you aren’t buying windows either its a good emulation solution.
The BAD: They couldn't get a network connection which of course renders the multiplayer experience of TEF unusable. They don’t know if the connection problem with TEF is just a problem with their network or their computer only though, so try it then let them know what your experience was.
