ThePalace Presents Moderator Guide

ThePalace Presents is a secondary client-server that rides alongside your Palace Client in a child window. It allows for a live “show” to be presented to the participants in the virtual world, like a live interactive TV screen with avatars on it. This was the software used to create the “South Park Public Access” and “SPTV” shows that ran on regular schedules within The World of South Park. These shows were semi-scripted, often insanely episodic, frequently off-color, and totally ridiculous. ThePalace Presents software was also used for interviews and surprise broadcasts by celebrities; I hosted several events featuring Jon Davis of KoRn, and all four members of I Mother Earth, as well as a live Halloween broadcast direct from South Park Studios (the real one).
