OpenSim is great for developing history builds that give a view of a environment at a particular point in time. However, builders may also wish to understand and convey how a particular environment has evolved across multiple timepoints. Accordingly, this presentation discusses possible approaches to representing the passage of time in history builds taking as its subject the iconic early railway stations at Liverpool Crown Street and Lime Street.
Graham Mills is a retired university academic with an amateur interest in the history of Liverpool and its railways. He uses OpenSim as an aid to better understanding issues of place and scale in historical contexts.
