It was gonna be (maybe still will be) a scavenger hunt, virtual geo cache thing with a checklist and prizes. Some easy things and some really impossible things to find in the VR world I need to finish.

virtual geo cache seems interesting, never heard of that.

That's fantastic, Plankton! Is this a video game, promo, marketing thing or what? That must have taken some time to put together. Lovely music too.

It's based/developed off of Twinmotion, which is Epic Games version of an architectural visualization tool. You can create a world and send it to a client, where they can walk/fly around. I have the back 9 complete, the front 9 should be easy so once I get settled I'll get it done.

Well done. I can only imagine the number of hours you put into this.

Zuckerberg's gonna have you taken out for trying to build your own metaverse.

I forgot to mention, it's more of a promo thing for Dellwood Disc Golf with a bit of some game play involved with the geo cache thing. You have to find 3D items I place in random spots in the world and then screen shot them as you find them. Once you get them all you win a free disc or something similar.

Thanks. Lots of hours. All structures/buildings and misc things have to be modelled in CAD then imported into the world. Not to mention placing every tree, grass, weeds, etc. Then there's the terrain modeling, which can be a pain.

One of my first 3D projects in the early 90's was modelling up our solar system. You could zoom out to the extents, then zoom in all the way to a naked lady in the eye of a fly sitting on the toilet seat in the bathroom of the office I used to work at.

I'm still using the 2019 version, so this'll be a nice upgrade, finally:

And you haven't uploaded this for us why?
