There is NO charge for setting up LaRPS.
There is NO monthly maintenance cost.
LaRPS Game Realms choose and control many options.
Enabling LaRPS for your region.
There are two types of LaRPS realms that can be chosen. Depending on your requirements and the choice you wish to offer your roleplayers.
- · Choice 1. "Global Realm"
- When a player creates a character sheet in this region, it will also be active and available in all other regions in within the virtual grid, such as Second Life™, that isn't part of a game realm setup.
This is the most flexible for players as they may level up in one region and move around playing the same character. An example would be a Vampire character that goes around looking for action.
Or perhaps a combat character if you have a full fledged combat region setup. The disadvantage to this type is that there are no game admins to award or dock EXP.
- Immediate setup. Just grab a LaRPS meter vendor from Vamporium and start RPing
- · Choice 2. "Game Realm"
- When a player creates a character sheet in this setup, it will only be active and available when
the player is in that region (or group of regions that makes up the realm). An example of such a place is "Isle of Legacies" that is part of the "Legacies" game realm.
The Legacies realm is made up of 6 regions. A character may move around the regions using the same character but if they teleport outside the 6 regions, their "Global Realm" character would then be active instead of the "Legacies Game Realm" character.
This is very flexible for controlling the game of your choice as you may have full control over awarding, docking and managing your own admins. You may also define your own races and disable certain spells and abilities.
- 24 hours setup. See below for information needed.
- You must have a current player base of more than 10 people.
- You need to have had your RP region for longer than 6 months before getting a Game Realm. (This doesn't apply to those realms who submitted applications before September 11, 2011)
- You need to show you have an understanding about virtual world roleplaying and story writing.
- The only difference between Global and Game Realm is that Game Realms have more control. The operation of the HUD is exactly the same.
- Another benefit for Game Realms will include a full size free region in the up coming LaRPS Grid that is available later this year.
"I'm interested, so how do I get a Game Realm?"
That's great! All you have to do is simply send the following information:
- Realm Type: Choose from the two options above, which type of game setup you want.
- Region name(s): The exact names of the regions that make up the realm. Yes, you can have more than one sim region to be in the same realm.
- Region Image: A full permission image of the Realm with the permission to use the image on this site. This will go into the listing of Realms to attract visitors to your Role Play Realm.
- Description: A full description of the Realm to describe the theme and type of role play that you perform in your region.
- Entrance Landmark: So your players know where to teleport to and how to get to your region. A SLURL would be great if you have one.
- After your game realm details are placed into the database, you will be sent an owners LaRPS pack that includes various API examples (for food, bank coins etc) and a special Meter Giver box that you may rez anywhere you choose.
Send all the above, as a Notecard, to either one of the following LaRPS Liaison Representatives:
Your Game Realm can be up and ready in less than a day. It is free of charge and only takes 5 minutes.
