Posted May 31, 20231 yr Howdy, folks! (I used to say "kids" back on vPyro....when we were all, ya know...kids....) Name's Ryan, game's lyin'. I'm kidding. Sorta. I feel like my claim-to-fame was announcing projects or promising collabs and just not following through. I enjoyed the themed coaster creation aspect of the game back in the aughts - this was 15 years ago ?? Then I got into pyro shows: But ultimately my patience just couldn't handle the lag these things induce on less-than-capable PCs. I remember our great Commander in Chief Wolfpaw telling me that at a certain point, the hardware stopped being the problem - these were now limitations that our beloved software couldn't grapple with. The amazing, talented community of scenery makers, pyro crafters, and show designers had ambitions beyond what RCT3 could sustain. Yet somehow, that didn't stop makers like Wolfpaw, nSeven, MGL, Jaron, and PasawayandJeff from marching forward with elaborate, cinematic spectaculars, some as recently as 2022! Nowadays I'm in retail management with a side craft of helping design, light and sound haunted house attractions. I'd call it a side hustle, but I've yet to really make any money off of it...it's mostly just fun with friends. Something, sometime, eventually...
May 31, 20231 yr It's so awesome to see you here, Kablary! 15 years ago.. geez has it really been that long? It's cool to see you continue to make the spoopy houses and effects, I remember that was a huge thing you were into and it's glad to see some things don't change ? Really happy to see an older vPyro face around here, hopefully, more from the past will show up again so we can all catch up! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really

You may need to start offering roast beef sandwiches to entice the former gang to come back. Something, sometime, eventually...

I feel like a lot of the older veteran vPyro members actually really miss it, just have nowhere to go. I'm going to eventually reach out to all of the ones I can and hope that some may show up. It would be real fun to talk to them all again! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really

Perhaps even Clay, Brandon, Mike and Liam? Timothy would come back in a heartbeat, I think he's still making shows. I know it's a stretch, but this is l like an anniversary reunion waiting to happen ? Edited May 31, 20231 yr by OldBones Something, sometime, eventually...
June 1, 20231 yr I still talk to some vPyro members such as Mike, Sino, etc.. they are no longer interested in making shows though but I'm sure they'd pop in every now and then! Once I get this place up and running a bit more and finish the migration from SGW, I'm definitely going to reach out to these people. Gotta let bookworm know there's a new place for him to share his shows, didn't know he still made shows! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really
