I'm really at my wit's end. I can't get any kind of straight answer as to when I can expect to have my region back up. Whoever owns the server that my region was moved to, travels and has no idea when they'll return. (who lives like that?) They're apparently just waiting for this person to return while doing nothing to contact them. The only backup that was kept is from 2021. Which isn't going to cut it. Grrrrr

Host the server yourself and then you get to control when the backups occur and you might save a little time and frustration... It works for me. Peace!

don't go to OsGrid, they crash a ton and you lose ALL your assets or even inventory! Look into hosting a Dreamgrid, that's what I do. \o/

When I moved to OSGRID, I could not get an OAR so.... I made large linksets of items which could be safely grouped together. I made a notecard with the coordinates of each object. I transferred all items to the OSgrid avatar then copied and pasted all positions and rotations of each item... within an hour or two I had everything in the new location. I used the region control panel to export the RAW file for the terrain I worked so hard on.

This is why its a good idea to either run it from your own pc or use a paid hosting, so you always have access.

I purchased a refurbished computer from Amazon for hosting my simulators. The cost of the machine was less than the price of 1 YEAR worth of hosting and it literally paid for itself in less than 6 months. Austin Tate has an excellent tutorial on running your own simulator. I was shocked when I found out just how easy it is to start my own grid. Lots of free info and support out there... Good Luck!
