IMAGE: A NEW GAME ENGINE FOR OPENSIM
Whew this has been an amazing year so far, I recovered my grid after a failure and now I am expanding my creativity in ways I never thought possible, then in a retirement blitz, I open sourced everything SimGEAR. Through the study of works from many wizards like Satyr, Greybox, Aine and others I developed sufficient skills in LSL to author my own software. Modern advancements have enabled digital artists like myself to CREATE the unimaginable. My coding companion, I lovingly call Dirty Helga has helped me to compose an incredible gaming framework. Why?
I am inviting friends from other worlds not related to opensim and I need activities to engage and inspire. I had an old ossl zombie game which worked on 08x but not 092 so I thought... why not fix it. Helga convinced me to re-wright it and taught me how. Gears constantly turning in my head... hmmm what if we do this, what if we do that.... 3 weeks later and almost 4k lines of blissful code. I told her to teach me the HARD WAY. We built everything from the ground up in MINUTE DETAIL and I want to share this same experience with you!
From this point forward all content I share will be released under CC-BY in gratitude for all those who helped me become the digital magician I am today. When we share knowledge openly and freely, everyone benefits.
THIS THREAD IS ABOUT IMAGE
so maybe I should quit beating around the bush!
IMAGE in it's current form at the BETA test site is just the game engine portion itself with some vanity decor (Grug Assault)
FEATURING:
Orbit / Force Manipulation
Target orbiting (radius, speed, axis, decay)
Forced positional control with safety bounds
Avatar Control Effects
Stuns / freezes (movement & rotation)
Forced sit / unsit
Temporary input denial (fair-use timed)
Combat-Style Interactions
Non-lethal knockback
Directional impulse hits
Stack-safe effect application (no runaway spam)
Game State Enforcement
Zone-based rule activation
Auto-revert on exit or timeout
Death / reset hooks (non-destructive)
Scoring & Tracking
Session-based score counters
Kill / hit / objective tallies
Memory-safe stat lifecycle
Player Eligibility Logic
Opt-in / opt-out handling
Immunity flags (admin / role based)
Cooldown enforcement
Anti-Abuse Guardrails
Rate-limited effects
Hard caps on concurrent forces
Automatic cleanup on script loss / detach
Diegetic Feedback
In-world messages only (no spam)
Visual motion as primary feedback
Silent failure modes when misused
Future IMAGE Possibilities:
Quest GIVER & Unique scenarios with LORE
RPG mechanics: Consumables, health, energy, magic
Trivia, Storytelling and SKIT mechanics through our IMAGE-NPC Module.
IMAGE ADMIN: Grid-Wide administration through effortless region handshake
Visit regions to sync data from Admin Hud, great for shared ban lists.
IMAGE not only does gaming, it fairly enforces your edicts.
Through a convenient menu which adapts to the plugins installed on each region.
In Testing and Development:
Child Gate: 90 second warn to change to adult or shown the door.
Exodus: When a temporary banishment is NOT enough.
Mailbox: grid-wide admin mail and stowage.
SnatchEM: Temporary landing point evasion and taxi.
I think that little list should keep me busy for a while... If you find this project intriguing please come to xoaox.de:7000 and see it in action, the IMAGE Portal drops you into our TEST ARENA!
As STATED on WALL POSTS: BUG reports are sent in-world through the feedback panel on the KILLBOARD.
Ultimately, this is how I plan to spend my retirement... doing something I enjoy... designing ORIGINAL content for opensim.
This is a forum of collaborative ideas for a project designed to be 'free as in freedom'. Make something awesome from this!

Athena hat wieder zugeschlagen – und zwar mit Stil!
Wer dachte, sie hätte schon alles im Kleiderschrank, wird jetzt eines Besseren belehrt. BK-Mode hat frischen Nachschub geliefert, und Athena trägt ihn mit der Selbstverständlichkeit einer Göttin, die gerade aus dem Fashion-Olymp gestolpert ist.
Ob für den Laufsteg, die Tanzfläche oder den nächsten dramatischen Auftritt im virtuellen Wohnzimmer – diese Outfits sind bereit. Und Athena? Die ist schon einen Schritt voraus.
Jetzt neu im Shop – aber Vorsicht:
Wer reinschaut, könnte plötzlich das Bedürfnis verspüren, seinen Avatar komplett neu zu erfinden.

Thanks to all who have dropped in and given feedback, IMAGE is not the same game engine it was a couple of days ago. Now we are starting to have a polished gaming framework. We have a new tracing weapon and spatial audio which will work with most finicky viewers and their permission requests. This thing has lots of features and lots of fun. Beta testers get a nice perk for beating the hell out of IMAGE, so bring your army and fight off the grugs! LETS BREAK IT so that I can make it genius proof. xoaox.de:7000 Touch the 'IMAGE Portal' to enter the Arena.
If you have a copy of the 8.4 updater and the scripts, please come get a new copy.
Realized I forgot to add the sounds to the updater and had to fix the uuid in one of the scripts

As many of you who are close to me know, I have recently moved into our new home - Actually it's my daughter and her fiancé's new home, but the dragged ole mom here with them. We were moved in 2 days and have finally, pretty much, gotten settled in and I only have 2 more totes to unload. It is so nice to finally have enough room and a new home that feels like home. But all of that aside, it means now I must get busy making more new creations and new builds and letting you all know if you're looking for a home, your own region and a place to build and create, come see me and I can work on a deal for you. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

in a corner of NeverWorld lies a devastated area... a fragment of the Wasteland after the war of 2077... I was told there were no deathclaws, but that's not true. I escaped two, seeking refuge among the rocks... and stumbled upon the entrance to a Vault numbered 77 (https://opensimworld.com/hop/92394)... What will I find inside? That old melody by a Spanish singer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWnmzagelp8) echoes in my head... because the stories about Vault 77 are unsettling (https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Vault_77)
