Yesterday was my first time in Jokaydia. Before the orientation with Esme, I was able to successfully land on Joakydia explore the "Newbie Zone" and "Scooter". Since this is my first time playing on this type of software, I am challenged to learn all of its features. At first, I bought skin and hair and even a black dress, thinking I could change the appearance of my avatar. The only thing that happened was that a white cloud appeared rather than having a female woman in the clothes I bought. I soon realized that I had to buy an avatar first before even buying any of the other features. Wooops! Thanks to our quick orientation with Esme, I was able to figure that out, as well as discover our Class Hub. Unfortunately, the system was kicking all of us off consistently therefore we had to reschedule our orientation. I am hoping that my next meeting with Esme, I will be able to learn a lot more about where to get the assignments and drop them off and other basic things. Meanwhile, I will get back on to Jokaydia tonight and see if I can play around with some of my avatar's physical features.
It seems you have come a long way since this first experience! I too experienced a big learning curve coming in and trying to set up an avatar. At one point I took off a shirt and could not figure out how to get another one back on...luckily no one was around to see my struggles.
ReplyDeleteHello Lourdes,
ReplyDeleteYou were more courageous than I was on my first visit. I just waited for Esme to take me in. :) It was funny watching the avatars get dressed!
By now I'm sure you are flying around in style, copying all kinds of great things and creating your own space. I missed the first meeting but the last two were excellent. Every time I turned around, I'm learning something new. Scripting is phenomenal!! Hope to see you in-world. I'm usually there Monday and Fridays pm.
