Help me Dumpshock, you're my only hope.
Does anyone have or have a link to all the old Virtual Seattle adventures? The link to Wizards is dead.
Bearclaw
One more try?

I'll ask Bitrunner, who was heading up Virtual Seattle (ANd headed up Season 1 of the Missions program). I'm not sure how the RPGA stuff was handled, but if the adventures were all copywritten to them, it's entirely possible they're no longer available.

Well, it's also possible depending on circumstances that they have/will drift into the public domain, especially if the Coastal Wizards are complacent. I haven't paid much attention to them since the 4th Age began and it got to be normal to see dragons and gnols and rakshasa as player characters in a Remembered Realm that I no longer recognize. I really miss the Realms they seem to have Forgotten. *wink*

There is a list at http://rpggeek.com/rpgseries/19056/virtual-seattle, but I've only been able to find 4 of the adventures on the net. Those 4 are also detailed on the list.

In all my digging around over the years, I've only managed to gather six VS adventures. It probably does not help that for much of the campaign's existence, adventures were not distributed electronically, but mostly photocopied and physically mailed. This was before widespread internet access, remember.

A Leg of Hope by Jason Reynolds
Disappearing Act by Stephen Gabriel
Once Upon A Time by Rich Osterhout
Star Fire by Nick Perch
Out for Blood by Steven Kenson
By the Light of the Silvery Moon by Scott Spencer (3rd Edition)

All of them have a Copyright notice indicating the non-trademarked adventure content as belonging to the respective authors, so you'd have to contact each one to obtain distribution rights, and even then strip out the trademarks first.

I sent an email to Steve Kenson, to see if I can get my hands on his. I actually had the pdf once, and apparently lost it in a drive crash.

What would be REALLY nifty is a "Missions 2050" short run campaign for Shadowrun Missions, using the new 2050 rules.

You'd obviously need to create new characters to play in the campaign, but it would be really kick ass if you also had a mix of revamped Virtual Seattle events as well as newly written Missions.

Bearclaw
That would be pretty cool.
Bearclaw
Sweet! Steve sent me a copy. I didn't ask if it was OK to pass it around though.

Was it in the origional rpga format? I ask because there is a copy of this out on the net, and prob someone just typed it out.. I'm after the format that it was origionally done in if at all possiable..

Larsine
Asked Steve, and he said that http://www.rpgarchive.com/index.php?page=adv1&advid=222 was the adventure he sent to RPGA, and he does not know how they changed that adventure to suit the VS campaign.

I would love to get my hands on the actual VS adventure, so I could compare to two versions.

What I got is the PDF that Steve had. It's not the same as the one published, but I'm not sure how much has been changed. I know the bad guy is named Karl Stanislaw, rather than Vlad Malkovich. I wouldn't be comfortable passing it out, as he didn't say it was OK. I guess I can write him again if it's a big deal.
Bearclaw
OK, Steve said it was fine to post the PDF somewhere. So where should I put it?
Larsine
How big is the PDF?
Bearclaw
The file is 122 KB
Larsine
Send it to me at l-hansen @ post4 . tele . dk (without the spaces).

I'll enter it to the rpggeek, and upload the file once the entry has been approved.

Greetings..

Over the last couple of years I've been interested in collecting RPGA stuff, and con stuff in general.. for example, Living City, Living Jungle etc and of course Virtual Seattle.. Usually I will concentrate on one "living collection" for a little, trying to collect ones I'm missing, finding moire info of what I'm missing before moving on to the next little collection..

Anyway its been Virtal Seattle week for me.. and here is the list of my collection.. 44 modules.. does anyone else collect any other RPGA stuff at all??

Thanks

I used to collect Living City, but when I stopped with AD&D I sold off all my AD&D material, including everything LC, and back in those days they were (badly) photocopied copys.

Lars I would have loved you long time if you still had your LC stuff;)

Can you share your collection with the rest of us?
KarmaInferno
As I said before, it would be lovely if the authors could be contacted to see if they'd be willing to allow the use of the material for Missions.

I am Necromancering this thread, I apologize. Shamble forth, my zombie minion!

If anyone has old VS modules, I'd love to get them from you!

Beasterbrook, if the collection you listed hasn't updated in the past year, I have a few modules you haven't listed.

Please PM me.

More thread-o-mancy

Any chance someone still has these files available and would be willing to share?
Kuma
I'd also like the adventures, if they're around.

I have 13 of the 48 on Larsine's list. Would be great if someone could help me fill out my collection.
