Thanks to everyone who came to the French and German sessions of the HIE yesterday!
The event continues today of course, with the Italian and Spanish from 9am SLT. Attendance hovered around 50 people for each session, peaking at 52 for Cherry Manga and MorlitaM's unforgettable immersive experience.
Thanks everyone for being there and supporting this adventure!

Hello everyone, the BloodMoon grid website is getting a makeover, the development of the vampire and Lycan role play is also progressing. We recently concluded a partnership with Podex and changed our currency due to a lack of communication from Gloebits, our messages remained desperately unanswered for several months. The team at Podex is very professional and it is easy to communicate with them, we recommend them for their professionalism. See you soon: https://bloodmoonpack.com/grid/

This is detail from my sword Excalibur (my reimagining of that magic weapon), a mix of mesh and prim with completely new PBR textures. Although it is unscripted, I have included the pieces necessary for a weapons scripter: an unsheathed sword, a sheath by itself, and a sheathed sword. There is also a Durendal Sword that has been reworked in silver and black.

Walk across the lobby and through the Medieval doorway to find them.

* A burial Viking-style was put in place for the unknown dead man found near the shipwreck. Was given the name Hyppolyt for the ceremony, then followed words from people and Anniera placing a yellow flower on his chest. When the present folks pushed him towards the ocean, King Max sent the flaming arrows to the ship so it burned the body to dust. Hyppolyt went to his last Home to meet the Gods.

1x1 - w/5K prims = $5
2x2 - w/10K prims = $10
3x3 - w/15K prims = $15
4x4 - w/20K prims = $20
6x6 - w/30K prims = $30
8x8 - w/40K prims = $40

The purchase of 2 - 4x4 or larger regions grants a free 1x1 or 2x2 region.

No additional charge to add prims and you can go
as high as 120K prims in the larger regions.
All regions are monitored for security and functionality.

All tier payments are monthly and non refundable.

For more information message me.
We also have free housing on several of our regions for those who do not wish to or cannot afford to purchase a region of their own.

IMPORTANT IF YOU USE JOOMLA/JOPENSIM!

A MESSAGE DIRECTLY FROM JOPENSIM WEBSITE

EOL for FoTo50's jOpenSim
After almost 15 years, I will no longer continue developing jOpenSim. In this sense, this means that jOpenSim has reached EOL status - at least as far as I am concerned.

The website and the grid jOpenSimWorld will stay up for the next months to get at least a communication possibility via forum or inworld.

This was not an easy decision for me, but it is certainly time for me to step back and perhaps make way for others with more energy.

Thanks for a wonderful time and all the best

FoTo50

THIS MEANS THAT IF WE CANT FIND SOMEONE TO UPDATED JOPENSIM FOR THOSE THAT USE JOOMLA CANNOT UPDATE TO 4 OR 5

Exciting changes are coming to Home and Gardens! Not only will we have stunning historical homes powered by Bullet physics, but an entire region showcasing some of the finest and freshest properties in the Ubode Physics realm. We've also given H&G Furniture a complete overhaul, with a wealth of brand-new items that will make it easier than ever to find what you're looking for.

All three regions will have their own dedicated beacons, so you can easily navigate to the areas that interest you most. This massive undertaking has been months in the making, and I'm thrilled to finally unveil the new and improved Home and Gardens and H&G Furniture this Tuesday, March 4th at 9am grid time.

These homes are for your personal enjoyment only - no god-modding or unauthorized redistribution allowed. I work tirelessly for the people of the Open Sim, not for any individual grid. I can't wait for you all to experience the incredible transformation we've achieved!

The second day of the event was also very moving and wonderful. Thank you to everyone who doesn't let themselves be discouraged and who dares to stand up against the political pressure from the right, even in virtual worlds.

Auch der zweite Eventtag war sehr bewegend und wundervoll. Danke an allen, die sich nicht entmutigen lassen und sich trauen auch in virtuellen Welten gegen den politischen Rechtsdruck aufzustehen.

Hey Everybody, TOMORROW starting at 2pm Grid time until 4pm grid time, I will be on the Virtual Beach Grid to help commemorate the life and times of Trizzy Hunter who passed through the portal to eternity in December.

Fifteen years, how fast they flew,
Dorena’s World, a dream come true.
A digital realm, so full of life,
With shared ideas, escaping strife.

From the first pixel to today’s delight,
You’ve built a world that shines so bright.
Friendship, dreams, and fantasy,
All united in harmony.

Let’s celebrate, day by day,
For all the wonders that pave the way.
Fifteen years of inspiration,
A reason for joyful celebration!
Further information on the upcoming events will follow.

This is a replica of Metacomet's war club from the late 1600's. It is currently on display at the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard Massachusetts. Each wampum inlay along the top commemorates an invader personally dispatched by Metacomet during the King Phillip War 1675-1678

While most of us associate PBR only with mirrors and shiny metals, there is a lot more to it since all surfaces benefit from it. The top pic here shows the room with the old standard (blinn phong) textures and materials taken using the FS 6.6.17 viewer, while the bottom pic shows the same room with all pbr textures taken using the FS 7.1.11 viewer. Note that you can add both texture sets to a surface so that any viewer can see something. Also note that there is a reflection probe filling this room that prevents the blue light outside from seeping in (a current known bug being investigated).

Saturation, lighting, and detail are significantly improved across the board when all surfaces are pbr, which is what Physically Based Rendering was designed to do: to more accurately capture the interplay of light on various surfaces. For those wondering about how performance was affected, these were taken using my 8 year old desktop that has a GTX 1070 graphics card. I was at 40 fps on ultra graphics, but you don't need to set the graphics that high to get this look. That's because the new viewer is more efficient since it uses more of your computer's available resources.

Howdy folks!!! One of our new grid members wanted a house that was very open, so with that thought in mind I created this house for her, however I'm making it available to anyone who would like it. This house features a built in fireplace, split levels, spiral stairs, decks, recessed ceiling lights (touch light), sliding doors and a carport. The build is pretty much all prim so it will be easy to modify and the mesh parts can be resized and re textured to your liking. It is full perm and free here at our mall, stop by and check it out. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Well, I couldn't really make a Douglas Fir and NOT decorate one for an old fashioned Christmas, Decorated with gold tinsel and red, white & green plaid bows, old fashioned decorated ornaments and multi colored lights with a big star at the top takes me back to my childhood days. It's free, it's full perm, it's yours to get at our Holidays & Seasons department. Drop in, no through the chimney, and get yours and may it bring you a bright, blessed and Merry Christmas, blessings and much love, Lavia.
