I want to thank everyone who participated in our little poll yesterday regarding adoption of PBR viewers. The tally as of today: 45% of the 29 respondents said they love it, 28% said they had tried it but had reverted back, and 14% said they had no interest in using one.

As I have shown before, the pic above shows the difference between PBR and full Blinn-Phong materials. Both are the best I was able to accomplish with each graphics engine. Both are part of all my builds now, so users can decide how they want to see them.

As many of you know, I've always been an early adopter and proponent of new viewer features, such as materials and eep, and used them in everything, regardless of how widely adopted the tech was among the user base. And as with pbr now, the primary early adopters are usually artists, designers, and creators, because we are are supported by a great group of patrons who enable us to keep doing what we love and push the limits of creation on this platform. So, if a user doesn't want to upgrade, we understand and we accommodate, but if they do, they're in for a treat :-)

Liebe Community,
seit wenigen Stunden werde ich in Facebook massiv von einer Person attackiert – mit haltlosen Unterstellungen wie Fake-Identität, toxisches Verhalten und sogar Pädophilie. Solche Vorwürfe sind nicht nur verletzend, sondern strafbar.
Ganz ehrlich: dieser Ärger bringt mich an meine Grenzen. Nach über 15 Jahren in OpenSim frage ich mich manchmal, ob es das noch wert ist. Aber dann denke ich an all die Menschen, Projekte und an unsere gemeinsame Community – und das ist der einzige Grund, warum ich nicht einfach hinschmeiße.
Ich will hier nur klarstellen: Diese Anschuldigungen sind frei erfunden und haben keinerlei Substanz. Meine Energie gehört weiterhin Dorena_AI, der Kunst und unserer Welt – nicht dem Gift einzelner Personen.
Wer mich angreifen will, soll wissen: Ich lasse mich nicht einschüchtern. Meine Projekte wachsen weiter – trotz allem.

AH, ihr Name ist Vanessa Keune...
Dear Community,
for the past few hours I have been massively attacked on Facebook by a person – with baseless accusations such as fake identity, toxic behavior, and even pedophilia. Such allegations are not only hurtful, but also punishable by law.

To be honest: this whole situation is pushing me to my limits. After more than 15 years in OpenSim, I sometimes ask myself if it’s still worth it. But then I think of all the people, the projects, and our shared community – and that is the only reason why I don’t simply give up.

I just want to make it clear: these accusations are fabricated and have absolutely no substance. My energy continues to belong to Dorena_AI, to art, and to our world – not to the poison of a single person.

Whoever tries to attack me should know: I will not be intimidated. My projects will continue to grow – despite everything.

AH, her name is Vanessa Keune...
