In the heart of the digital realm, where grids and codes intertwined, there existed a special place known as the Gentle Fire Grid. This grid was unlike any other; it was a warm, welcoming community where avatars from all corners of the virtual world gathered to share stories, create art, and celebrate together.

As Christmas approached, the Gentle Fire Grid buzzed with excitement. The avatars decorated their virtual homes with twinkling lights, digital wreaths, and pixel-perfect Christmas trees. The air was filled with the sound of cheerful carols and the scent of virtual gingerbread cookies.

One chilly December evening, the grid's founder, a wise and kind avatar named Santa Mint, decided to host a grand Christmas party. Invitations were sent out to all the neighboring grids, including the renowned OpenSim. The message read, "Merry Christmas from Gentle Fire Grid to OpenSim! Join us for a night of joy, laughter, and celebration with live singer's and DJ's"

On the night of the party, avatars from OpenSim arrived, their digital forms glowing with anticipation. They were greeted with open arms and warm smiles. The Gentle Fire Grid had prepared a feast of virtual delicacies, from pixelated plum pudding to holographic coffee.

As the night went on, the avatars shared stories of their adventures, exchanged gifts, and danced under the shimmering lights of the virtual sky. Santa Mint stood by the grand Christmas tree, watching the joy spread across the grid. It was a night to remember, a night where the boundaries of the digital world melted away, and the true spirit of Christmas shone brightly.

And so, the Gentle Fire Grid and OpenSim celebrated together, creating memories that would last a lifetime. It was a reminder that no matter where you are, the warmth of community and the magic of Christmas can bring everyone together.

Found a parking space for the X-Wing over at the store. Flew her over from Luna Starbase after giving her a new PBR paint job. Might be time again to give her some exercise flying across the grid.

Made by Lain Iwakura of Iwakura Systems and scripted by Armenious Horada. I helped Lain with the model upload issues and some of the texturing and also helped with flight testing. They have some interesting hud, weapons, and flight characteristics. Armenious has moved on to other projects outside of Opensim and Lain is no longer making the models though she is still on Kitely. Their entire inventory of about 20 ships was given to me as a trust to preserve. I'll eventually display them all at Starbase.

You can see the X-Wing at the store next to the cinema. HG Address is grid.wolfterritories.org:8002:Lunaria Emporium - Main Store

Old concrete walls exude a rugged charm, their surfaces marked by time and the elements. Pitted with irregular holes, these imperfections create a textured landscape that catches the light in interesting ways. Stains of various hues—rusty browns, faded greens, and deep grays—tell stories of weathering and wear, as moss and lichen cling stubbornly to the cracks. The rough, mottled surface feels cool to the touch, while the air carries a faint, earthy scent of dampness and age. Each blemish and discoloration adds character, transforming the wall into a canvas of history, where every mark holds a memory of its past.

21st September is WORLD PEACE DAY!

Whilst it may seem slightly frivolous, ZetaWorlds is having an event/party, We can't end the wars, the assault on Ukraine by Putin's Russia, the conflict in Gaza made worse by Israel's tamper tantrum, the military junta terrorizing Myanmar, but we can raise awareness and we can make a difference!

Anyone that buys a region that day, any package really, all proceeds will be given to Angel of Life aid for Ukraine! Let's raise some money!
The charity is linked here: https://angel-of-life.weblium.site
(additional information: https://www.volunteeringukraine.com/en/volunteer-opportuni... [added by Mathilda Stark])

The day starts of with a Q&A session again with Edison and Vincent answering burning issues, questions, and talking us through planned upgrades etc. Please direct your questions and anything you might want to discuss here: https://zetaworlds.com/forms/questionnaire

So the timetable for the day:
8am: Q&A Session
10am: Quirkessential DJane HAZEL ITO plays one of her unique mixes
11am: Sees the return of live singer ROGUE GALAXY to center stage
12 noon: High noon, for our live DJ MATTIE
1pm: It's the normally naked DJ RUUD, but this time at least partly clothed, don't miss this!
2pm: Our lovely ELLEMIR takes over the decks before handing over at
3pm: to the next live DJ NORA COLA

So please come and join us, donate to great charities one way on another, and make it a night to show support for the wronged and a world living in peace and harmony!

If that somehow offends you: Attacking fellow humans is abhorrent whether it be punching your neighbor or invading a whole country for no reason.

New at the shop! A simple teleporter gives you access to each floor including the roof of this Observation Tower. I add new items all the time that don't always make the news. Look for the "New" signs glowing in red. The tower can be found near the pyramids. See you soon!

I catch the 3HG Studios bus today and my driver is this cool, magical troll-like guy with huge feet straddling the gas and brake pedals. He flashes this wild-eyed grin and shouts, “Get in and buckle up!”

Before I can even find my seat, he’s spinning the bus out of control and diving straight into the ocean. We’re cruising underwater, octopuses scattering as we zoom past. The troll just laughs and says, “How do you like my shortcut?” 3HG has a new adventure coming soon...stay tuned! Thank you @ferdfrederix @ferdzee @FredBeckhusen 🚌🦈🪸🦑🌊🧜🏽‍♀️

KINDROID!

UPDATE: I have tried it with an npc and it work, for example wear an invisible prim or necklace whatever you want. name it the name of your bot and add the script in there. create npc notecard and add it to your scripted furniture whatever.

I have been playing around with my 3 day free trial, I have to say i am quiet intrigued. The level of conversations in intriguing. Kind a bummer you have to pay the price for the good stuff lol. Above is with animesh. I am now addicted lol, I've done 3 scenes already with just one bot.

what is everyone's thoughts on this, are there any free versions out there.

here is the original article about it from second life

Today has been a busy day at the mall as not only have we opened our new Magic Shop, but I got a little creative and made these Owl Lamps. I had gotten a lamp that was labeled "Owl Lamp" it turned out to be a Peregrine Falcon lamp, so I corrected the name on that one and made two, what I think are, really cute owl lamps with my favorite bird perched atop a tree and the moon providing the light. There are two versions, one with the owl facing front, and the other from the side and there are duplicate table versions as well. I have all four of them boxed up and waiting for you in the Living rooms Department in our Furniture section of the mall. Hop on over to the mall and use the teleporter to select "furniture" and have fun shopping! Blessings and much love, Lavia

Hiya All! :)

Someone was asking me about getting Moonshine for the VivoSim (Satyr, Quintonia) Farming System.

I couldn't find it anywhere except this one place but there was nowhere to get a copy of it, so I decided to make it myself! :)
It was easier than I thought! :)

FYI: You CAN get drunk from this, so be careful to not drink too much if you don't want to get drunk! :0
Also, if you want to get drunk, you will need to use the HUD that I have modified and included in this box.

If you would like a copy of this complete system, modified to make Moonshine, then come on over to my place and pic up your box which includes everything, plus notecards on how to do some stuff, too.

Here is what is included in the box along with the 3 notecards with instructions on how to use the system:

SF Drinks maker (Bar) - MODIFIED
SF Microbrewery - MODIFIED
SatyrFarm Distillery
SF Yeast Container - NEWEST VERSION (OLD ONES WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS NEW SYSTEM)
VivoSim-HUD-V6.08 Beta - MODIFIED
SF Barrel Store - RESET THIS ONCE YOU TAKE IT OUT OF YOUR INVENTORY
SF Slop Barrel - MADE EXCLUSIVELY FOR ALL INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE EACH PRODUCT.
SF Slop Barrel 1 - MADE ECLUSIVELY FOR ALL FINISHED PRODUCTS TO BE ADDED TO.
Satyr Farm Well - A REALLY COOL WELL THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME FULL PERM! :)

3 EXPLANATORY NOTECARDS

This is something new that I have been getting into, must be tried & tested. I've tested this repeatedly. If you have problems with it do not hesitate to let me know & I will make any alterations needed.

RE: THE VIVO SIM HUD WILL GIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE SAYING "Sorry, you need a VivoSim linked to your avatar to use the messaging system". THIS WILL CHANGE AFTER YOU PUT THE NEW HUD ON. JUST GIVE IT SEVERAL SECONDS TO TALK TO THE SERVER! It will also repeat this: "VivoSim-HUD-V6.08 Beta: " JUST TAKE THE HUD OFF ONCE YOU ARE DONE USING IT.

I sent this to two other grids after finally finishing tweaking it. It worked on each of those grids. I will test it out on other grids if need be. But it seemed to work on those two grids that I tested this system out on.

I have this both at the landing point as well as in the barn where I make it. If you want to go into the barn, when you get to the landing point, just click again on the landmark and it will take you right there!
