Getting help in this community is like pulling teeth, I swear to god.
Anyway. Windlight settings.
Noone seemed to have any answers, so I am sharing what I know.

Officially, opensim discontinued Windlight.
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/LightShare
You can still enable those settings in OSSL and OSSLDEFAULT config files. You used to have to enable them in Xengine settings but Yengine doesnt seem to require it.

The default settings that come bundled with Firestorm, Singularity, and Coolviewer are buggy AT BEST.

Region weather settings are saved to whatever database you are using in your server in a kind of strange, sloppy way. It isn't 1:1 with SL Windlight settings.
You're actually better off editing region windlight settings with a script than attempting to change them with the viewer.
https://www.outworldz.com/cgi/freescripts.plx?ID=1122

You can edit this script to get the job done. If you are using Windlight i really recommend using the singularity viewer- it seems to play nice with Windlight.

Also, after hitting an option to change the windlight settings... hit 'world', 'region/estate'. For whatever reason this triggers a refresh of the windlight settings on the region and you can see the changes you've made.

Hello Friends!

I am thrilled to announce that I have my own grid! It was time to expand my horizons, and for Le Beau Retrouvé to truly flourish, it needed the resources to bring my vision to life. My mission is to showcase the incredible talents of artists from all genres and media, along with our amazing DJs and singers in OpenSim during our events.

The gallery is a beautiful, peaceful place, a neutral territory open to all grids and all people. I hope it becomes a hub where artists and anyone else can meet, collaborate, and build a community of friends from all grids and countries. Perhaps our dream of world peace starts with us and our virtual worlds.

Land Of Xzar is also on the new grid for you to visit, and some exciting new regions will soon be open to the public. Please stop by and refriend me if you wish, as this is a new account and I will no longer be on the Genesis Roleplay Grid. Though I am no longer on Genesis, I support them as I do all grids in our community. I am thankful for the time I had and wish them well.

I am also deeply grateful for the overwhelming support I have received from my friends and the community. Your support has meant so much to me and has been an integral part of my journey.

So, what are you dreaming of?

After much consideration, Ezra decided to change the name of the shop from Odds & Ends to Antiques & Collectables. Set up like a neatly organized antique store this shop boasts a lot of really cute items for you to use in the construction and design of your region. While you're visiting Ezra's shop, be sure to go around the mall and visit our many other wonderful vendor's shops including Ares Gizmos, Stuff n Things, Creations by Tainted Angel, Fall's For You (Animesh people), Heart Of The Matter Boutique, Indigo's Market & Boutique, Thor's Forge and a whole mall full of stuff made by yours truly as well as a large collection of items from all over open sim. Blessings & Much Love, Lavia.

Calling all artists, both seasoned and emerging! Join us for an exciting opportunity to showcase your creativity. We can't wait to see the amazing works you produce under this captivating theme. Ladies, start planning your outfits for the ball—it's going to be a fantastic event with a touch of magic!

We're thrilled to announce a new region to the gallery dedicated to special projects. The first installation will be a collaborative masterpiece by beloved visual and audio artists. Witness how they transform the space into something extraordinary!
Additionally, we've opened another region connected to the gallery, designed for creating art, networking, and collaboration. Simply reach out to me to join this vibrant community and bring your artistic visions to life. Both regions are accessible by raft from the Art Gallery grounds.

Please note, the Gallery is now on a new grid. Old landmarks won't work, so discard them and pick up a new one. At the landing point and within the gallery, you'll find a sign you can click for this ad and a new landmark. You will also need to rejoin the group. Please see Star to be put in the appropriate role.
Many heartfelt thanks for the continued support for Le Beau Retrouve.

So, what are you dreaming of?

Hello dear friends, I wanted to invite all of you to the opening of the exhibition that presents Art & Friends and the artists who do excellent creative work.
Friday the 28th at 12 noon. Grid Time
Good music from DJ HAZIEL.
We will wait for you!!

In case anyone was wondering about that troll 'boxcleaner'...
do not trust a word they say. They admit as much themselves:
(the following is their morse code messages translated)

THE IMPACT OF TROLLING IS UNDENIABLE. IT CAN SILENCE VALUABLE VOICES, PARTICULARLY THM
THE TROLL'S ARSENAL IS VAST. THEY MAY DEPLOY INFLAMMATORY REMARKS, BLATANT LIES, OR HE
IN THE DIGITAL AGE, THE ONCE-MYTHICAL TROLL HAS LUMBERED OUT OF FOLKLORE AND INTO THE COT
AS WE DELVE DEEPER, THE LAYERS SHIFT, REVEALING MORE SUBSTANTIAL KEEPSAKES. A CHIPPED PO

The important bit is that they glorify being a blatant liar. Basically, you can't trust them at all.

Looking for a script? Need some kind of script functionality modified?

At this time I'm not looking to take on huge projects, as I'm working on a few of my own, but I welcome any small to medium scripting needs that you may have.

Feel free to drop me a message! I'm happy to help in any way that I can.

(To ensure I receive your message, please use OSW's messaging feature!)

GermanWorldGrid = virtualvistametaverse.com
Unter dem Vowand, das Germanworldgrid technich zu verbessern , wurde dieses Grid eingestampft und läuft jetzt unter dem Namen * virtualvistametaverse.com (kurz VVM)*
ABER: einen Grid-Namen kann man ändern, den schlechten Character des Owners und seiner Cyber-Ehefrau nicht. Mick Florido besaß das *Germanworldgrid*, eines der erfolgreichsten deutschen Grids, bis seine Cyber-Ehefrau Emma Florido kam, die unter Verfolgungswahn leidet.
Unter ihrem Einfluß wurden zahlreiche langjährige Member gemobbt, verleumdet, raus geekelt und verbannnt. Als Krönung wurden einige dieser Member in den TOS namentlich genannt sowie die fadenscheinigen Gründe, die zu dieser Verbannung führten. (Nachzu lesen in einer Gruppe bei Facebook)
Als *EmmaMercury* lief sie in SL jeder Hose nach, die sie jetzt in Opensim gefunden hat. Sie zerstörte eine gut funktionierende Gemeinschaft, die jetzt in alle Winde zerstreut ist.
In dieses neue Grid kommen nur neue Member auf Empfehlung, die außerdem u.a. unterschreiben müssen, mit keinem der ehemaligen Member in Kontakt zu treten.
Ich empfehle Emma Florido einen sehr guten Psychiater.
GermanWorldGrid = virtualvistametaverse.com
Under the pretense of technically improving the Germanworldgrid, this grid was stamped and now runs under the name * virtualvistametaverse.com (VVM for short) *
BUT: You can change a grid name, but not the bad character of the owner and his cyber wife. Mick Florido owned the *Germanworldgrid*, one of the most successful German grids, until his cyber-wife Emma Florido arrived, who suffers from paranoia.
Under their influence, numerous long-standing members were bullied, slandered, kicked out and banished. To top it off, some of these members were named in the TOS, as well as the flimsy reasons leading to this banishment. (You can read it in a group on Facebook)
As *EmmaMercury* she ran after every pair of pants in SL that she has now found in Opensim. It destroyed a well-functioning community that is now scattered to the four winds.
In this new grid, only new members come through recommendations, who also have to sign, among other things, and not come into contact with any of the former members.
I recommend Emma Florido, a very good psychiatrist.

At Masala Al Kohav Mall something small but very useful, a wall and window set. One wall has the window already installed and is mesh, the single window is Mesh but the wall is simple prim The texture is rustic and can be modified to whatever texture you like and so can the window. These are in our "Building Supplies" department at the mall and they're CMT just for you. I will be making more building supplies available as I create them. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Thanks to the AMAZING Firestorm and OPENSIM NGC team (and a bit of work from us!) our whole grid is now running with PBR textures and terrains. IN fact this image doesn't use PBR materials, just the standard texturing. Wow.

Has your default SL viewer been hijacked?
Well, you can fix that in regedit.
There are three or four entries you'll need to change, one per protocol.
Viewer name isnt really important, its mostly cosmetic.

>HOP:
VIEWER NAME: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\hop\shell\open - FriendlyAppName
APPLICATION LOCATION: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\hop\shell\open\command - Default

Format of the 'default' link registry key is always:

Discoverygrid running entirely on OpenSim NGC 8940 dotnet8. Massive improvement over previous mono release and faster than core's dotnet release. Will share the improvements with them. Meanwhile, testing the region for this weekend's 8th anniversary party,m airshows, and pyromusical. 80 bots, 80 sound HUDs, lots of aircraft.
