Here is a random build I made in Cloud Party. I used various objects including a dresser, a box, sofa chair, desk chair, flat screen TV, rug, bed, soccer ball, tall dresser, and a safe.
At this point I've used Cloud Party and OpenSim to build some basic 3D objects. This was the first time using Cloud Party and I must say that it has some resemblance to the OpenSim in terms of tools and building interface. I found myself being very comfortable with the controls just because of my experience with OpenSim in the 3D/VR course with Professor Walsh. With that being said, it is definitely a much more scaled down version and does not include many features that OpenSim has to offer. OpenSim offers a wide range of shapes to use, and they can be modified on a level that is much more precise and mathematical. There is only so much you can do with premade chairs, tables, and desks. Another tool which was lacking in Cloud Party (maybe I didn't see it) is the texture mapping, where you can upload images to "wrap" your objects. With that being said, building in Cloud Party is fun and a welcome feature, but it does not compete with the power of OpenSim.
