DREAMGRID 5.4998 IS OUT!!! :) Please note it is still running on opensim v 0.9.2.2 and has not yet been upgraded to 0.9.3 which ubit released a week ago. We are hearing great news about 0.9.3 being much faster than 0.9.2.2! :) Soo that's good news for everyone! ENJOY! and be sure to thank Fred Beckheusen for his amazing work!!!

A few modifications to an already great version of Rivendell. This is the original I made in OS, which I provided to Dreamgid and Ferd Ferderick to license for free to Dreamgrid users .. catch the creator doing some weeding there for the next hour or so ....

Today starts The Merchant Sales Event at this year's OSFest and it's happening this week from Tuesday September 26th through Saturday September 30th. This is a grid-wide event with multiple merchants and sales and freebies galore! There are merchant teleport boards like the one pictured that are spread around the grid for convenience.

For example, one of our merchants, Sarvonne Creations Etc, is offering a 50% off deal on "Blues/Jazz Era" themed AI art series at her CheriNet Et Alias Gallery Shop at her OSFest store.

Lunaria Emporium is holding its biggest sale of the year. All of my castles and entertainment venues will be 75% off Kitely Market prices, and all my other smaller items displayed everywhere will be free, including some Egyptian pieces and some brand new Art Deco pieces and furniture not yet available anywhere.

DON'T MISS THIS

Start here, then look for the merchant teleport board: grid.opensimfest.com:8022:HG-Welcome

DREAMGRID 5.497 IS OUT!!! :)
THE JOYS OF DREAMGRID. DreamGrid is a software by Fred Beckheusen that makes it super easy to set up your own grid on windows. Having your own grid means that you can back up your lands at a whim, or on a schedule you set. You also have the power to back up your own inventory. Why is this important? When a grid is down for maintenance you are at the mercy of other people relying on their timeline to get the grid back up and running. Having your own grid also lets you control your own npc's, and gives you vast amounts of power that you don't have if someone else is in charge. If you have a problem with a person you can block their entire grid, or just that person if you don't like them. You can create and control tides, and automate birds flying in the air. Another super cool feature dreamgrid has, is that it lets you just start up the regions people are in, or going to. This means you can have 500 different lands, but if only 10 people are on your grid, then only up to 10 would be active. So basically as people teleport around your 500 lands, only the lands they teleport to instantly load for them to enjoy. This gives you a vast amount of options. DreamGrid even comes with hundreds of ready-made lands you can click and install and instantly enjoy. It also means that you can run hundreds of regions on a small not very powerful computer at your home, as only the active regions people teleport to will be running.
DreamGrid has so many many options and features, to many to mention... That you don't have access to or even dream about if you are a member of someone elses grid. It's easy to run. Now of course there will be some people who have difficulty starting a program or are just technically dumb who will complain about dreamgrid, but these people really shouldn't be allowed near a computer in the first place. DreamGrid is dead simple to operate and has features such as auto restart a crashed region, auto restart all regions at a certain time similiar to secondLife's rolling restarts, and of course the ability to backup all your hard work and your precious inventory at a moments notice. Put it on an external drive and you will never again lose all your data. So give DreamGrid a try! It really is a work of art that deserves praise and recognition.

One of my parcels at OSFest is ready to go. This one promotes my Luxor region on Wolf Territories grid. The small structure in the center is a memorial to Veri McMaster and there's a song playing there titled 'Moments' by Sid Acharya - it is not a stream so just make sure your sounds are turned up and after about a minute you will hear it playing.

Here's the hop: hop://grid.opensimfest.com:8022/Unobtanium/777/321/25. HG Address is grid.opensimfest.com:8022:unobtanium. Just look for the Egyptian structures.

hello everyone,
I just wanted to send out this note to all of our Barefoot-Dreamers.
Thanks to Huga's untiring efforts the grid is up.
As she and Gabe noted this issue was beyond our control, but with the help of our server providers and with Huga and others brainstorming and troubleshooting, the server provider was finally able to track down the problem.
Thank you so much Huga!
.
We also want to thank you all for your patience and encouraging words.
Obviously, we would never want to have this happening and we do our best to keep the grid up and running. And we love having you all here as part of Barefoot-Dreamers.
However, life isn't perfect. So things happen…
.

please let us know if you have any issues, we are here to help.
Gabe, Huga, Kotu and rayne

Presenting The CyberScan. A small handheld channel scanner. To those who need it, it will be invaluable. This one is more sophisticated than many sold on secondLife Marketplace, due to the advanced way listeners are handled in the scripts. It is super low lag, generating none, which is a miracle for a channel scanner. You can use it when you are scripting to listen to messages on a single channel or multiple channels. You can use it as a part of your anti-spy arsenal to listen to the hidden messages floating around in your sim, and make sure someone is not spying on you. You can also use it to troubleshoot sim lag generated by chatty objects, even on negative channels. This is a rare item, as it is the first one I've seen on the open grids. Get it at wizardry, or just ask me.

Hi all i find i have to mention that a certain Grid is trying to destroy Caribou Grid by attacking one of the owners making her crash and making her time painfull but they have reconed without me and the Caribou Grid owner who is a lawyer and will be taking legal action
