Canadian Grid has relaunched with a new custom codebase and upgraded infrastructure, aiming for a Canada Day relaunch on July 1st.
The grid is implementing a cautious expansion approach, starting with select regions and introducing new features gradually, similar to Second Life's strategy.
New features include PBR terrain texture rendering and collaboration with Misterblu for WebRTC functionality, running on .NET 8 with plans to migrate to .NET 9.
Canadian Grid features a custom virtual currency system, modded marketplace, and different premium memberships offering varying land allowances, separate from the Great Canadian Grid.
