From today, voice communication is available in one of the most popular online games in the world Second Life (developer - Linden Lab ).
Those who wish to participate in beta testing of the new function should download a separate file - bHear (the version for Windows users weighs 32 megabytes). After its installation, the voice communication system will be available, taking into account the “geographical” position of the interlocutor.
There are two restrictions on its use so far: the user account should not be “younger” on February 19, 2007, and for the time being it is only possible to communicate in the “test area” (Beta Grid). The developers say that the functions of the system will be free during the entire testing period.
