Any current running SCOL experiences?

Nugamus · 7-Aug-2025 12:42:48

Hi! I'm really new to SCOL but incredibly fascinated by the project, I've been looking all over for information about experiences developed back in the day on the SCOL technology like Cryopolis, Francis Cabrel, iriZone, emmaZone and probably way more that I haven't been able to uncover Old internet community spaces have always held such a dear passion to me and would love to explore even more

I wonder if there is any way I can possibly get to try out these again or there could be a sort of repository where files related to these old projects can be stored for archiving?

I've stumpled upon this list http://iri3d.free.fr/phpring/ and scol://scol.arkeon.be but all seem to be dead at least with what I can get to having tried multiple different versions of the SCOLV@yager

Found this old website as well, it's so cool! http://schellert.com/html/virtual_worlds.htm

Hello, yes some months ago you could still access old scol sites like planetis3d on my server using scol voyager x32. But since the server change, it's not possible anymore.

On demand I could try to make a service online
For a little time when I have time on September.

That would be an incredible opportunity if you'd let me try it, however long it takes I'll gladly wait out for a chance at trying it out ^-^

What other sites do you have available other than Planetis3D? I just happened to pass by a thread while searching on a British website describing someone who'd also just happened to find it and made a article about it with comments reminiscing about having people it back in the day, it's nice to see people feel nostalgic for it https://nostalgasm.com/planetis

It's also been really interesting looking into the project of Venise: Fortune et gloire dans la Cité des Doges but I'd assume that is a much bigger hassle to get working compared to the others, the idea of it seems really cool though! I plan to get a physical copy of the game even if I can't run it due to the lack of servers the cover art looks awesome and I wouldn't pass up a chance to expand my Cryo collection

Some fun stuff to look at (article about Venise) https://surlestracesdelachouettedor.blo … -cite.html

Some snapshots are better backed up than others but just seeing it makes me feel so happy inside! I wish I had gotten to try this when it was running, but I was 4 years old back then hahaha

Another edit: https://web.archive.org/web/20021202005 … erface.htm found this too and it looks super cool

Hey Arkeon! It's been a long while since I last wrote on this thread, I didn't wanna disturb you since you have probably been super busy and I really hope you are doing well <3

I wonder if there is any chance you could possibly bring up the SCOL experiences again on your server or possibly if you can't run them would it be possible you could throw them up in a archive either for me in private or somewhere public so they can be archived for history ^-^ I think it's such a shame how little documentation there is around the SCOL for the visible internet, super excited to hear back from you

Hello !
yes I can search in my backups if I still have planetis3D that I could zip for local use.
I'll try to look at this soon
