# 🎙️ BloodMoon WebRTC Voice Update — Private Voice Calls Are Now Working! 🌙

Great news from **BloodMoon Grid**!

Following the recent deployment of our own WebRTC voice infrastructure, we're happy to announce another major improvement:

**Private voice calls through Instant Messages (IM) are now operational!** 🎉

Our WebRTC voice system continues to evolve, with additional fixes, improvements, and adaptations for our OpenSimulator environment.

### ✅ What's working now?

✅ **Proximity voice** — Talk naturally with nearby avatars.

✅ **Private IM voice calls** — Start a one-to-one voice call directly from a private IM conversation.

✅ **Voice participant indicators** — White dots showing voice participants, along with individual volume controls.

🔬 **Group voice conferences** — This feature has not yet been fully tested on BloodMoon. Further testing will confirm its availability.

### 🏠 BloodMoon Hosted Regions

All regions hosted directly by BloodMoon have already been updated and restarted with the latest WebRTC modules.

Residents can enjoy the new features without any additional installation, provided they use a WebRTC-compatible viewer such as a recent version of Firestorm.

### 🔧 Externally Hosted Regions

Region owners connecting their own simulators to BloodMoon must install the latest WebRTC modules and the required configuration and key files.

Updating the configuration file alone is no longer sufficient, even if proximity voice is already working.

For voice calls between avatars on different simulators, both simulators must be updated.

Access to our voice server remains restricted to authorized hosting IP addresses.

### ❤️ A Special Thank You to Lone Wolf — WolfGrid

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to **Lone Wolf from WolfGrid**.

Without his work, contributions, and the foundation he provided to the OpenSimulator community, none of this would have been possible.

Our BloodMoon implementation builds upon that foundation, with additional development, adaptations, and fixes to meet the needs of our grid.

**Thank you, Lone Wolf, for your work and for helping move OpenSimulator voice technology forward!** 🙏

### 🌐 Moving Forward Together

Our goal remains the same: a more independent, modern, and reliable voice experience for the BloodMoon community.

We will continue testing, improving, and expanding the capabilities of our WebRTC voice infrastructure.

**BloodMoon continues to evolve, one improvement at a time!** 🌙

# 🎙️ BloodMoon WebRTC — Les appels vocaux privés sont désormais opérationnels ! 🌙

Excellente nouvelle du côté de **BloodMoon Grid** !

Après le déploiement récent de notre propre infrastructure vocale WebRTC, nous sommes heureux d'annoncer une nouvelle avancée importante :

**Les appels vocaux privés depuis les conversations instantanées (IM) fonctionnent désormais !** 🎉

Notre système vocal WebRTC continue d'évoluer grâce à de nouveaux correctifs, améliorations et adaptations spécifiques à notre environnement OpenSimulator.

### ✅ Quelles fonctionnalités sont disponibles ?

✅ **Voix de proximité** — Communiquez naturellement avec les avatars présents autour de vous.

✅ **Appels vocaux privés via IM** — Lancez un appel vocal individuel directement depuis une conversation privée.

✅ **Indicateurs des participants vocaux** — Affichage des points blancs indiquant les participants à la voix, avec possibilité de régler individuellement leur volume.

🔬 **Conférences vocales de groupe** — Cette fonctionnalité n'a pas encore été entièrement testée sur BloodMoon. Des essais complémentaires permettront de confirmer son fonctionnement.

### 🏠 Régions hébergées par BloodMoon

Toutes les régions directement hébergées par BloodMoon ont été mises à jour et redémarrées avec les derniers modules WebRTC.

Les résidents peuvent profiter des nouvelles fonctionnalités sans installation supplémentaire, à condition d'utiliser un viewer compatible WebRTC, comme une version récente de Firestorm.

### 🔧 Régions hébergées à l'extérieur

Les propriétaires de simulateurs raccordés à BloodMoon doivent installer les derniers modules WebRTC ainsi que les fichiers de configuration et de clé nécessaires.

La simple mise à jour du fichier de configuration ne suffit plus, même si la voix de proximité fonctionne déjà.

Pour permettre les appels vocaux entre avatars présents sur des simulateurs différents, les deux simulateurs doivent être à jour.

L'accès à notre serveur vocal reste réservé aux adresses IP des hébergeurs autorisés.

### ❤️ Un grand merci à Lone Wolf — WolfGrid

Nous tenons à adresser nos plus sincères remerciements à **Lone Wolf de WolfGrid**.

Sans son travail, ses contributions et les bases qu'il a mises à disposition de la communauté OpenSimulator, rien de tout cela n'aurait été possible.

Notre implémentation sur BloodMoon repose sur ce travail initial, auquel nous avons apporté des développements supplémentaires, des adaptations et des correctifs pour répondre aux besoins spécifiques de notre grille.

**Merci Lone Wolf pour ton travail et ta contribution à l'évolution de la technologie vocale dans OpenSimulator !** 🙏

### 🌐 Continuons à avancer ensemble !

Notre objectif reste le même : proposer à la communauté BloodMoon une expérience vocale plus indépendante, moderne et fiable.

Nous allons poursuivre les tests, les améliorations et le développement des fonctionnalités de notre infrastructure vocale WebRTC.

**BloodMoon continue d'évoluer, une amélioration après l'autre !** 🌙

Dear residents of Francebuildouille 1 and 2,
As you know, OSGrid is about to undergo some changes.
It will no longer be possible for me to host you on OSGrid.
There is an alternative: Hyacinth, who hosts the regions, has offered to move them to https://groovyverse.com/welcome.
In the meantime, please make a copy of your houses and let me know if you are ready to move.
Chers résidents de Francebuildouille 1 et 2,
Comme vous le savez, OSGrid s'apprête à connaître certains changements.
Il ne me sera plus possible de vous héberger sur OSGrid.
Il existe une alternative : Hyacinth, qui héberge les régions, a proposé de les transférer vers https://groovyverse.com/welcome.
En attendant, veuillez effectuer une copie de vos maisons et me faire savoir si vous êtes prêts à déménager.

Since my recent posts have evidently been a source of annoyance, I have removed them all.
I hope for your sake that you never find yourselves facing more serious problems where you don’t know what to do next. Enjoy the rest of your time here, you won’t be hearing from me again.

Da man sich ja durch meine letzten Beiträge belästigt fühlt habe ich alle Beiträge entfernt.
Ich hoffe für euch das ihr nie mit größeren Problemen konfrontiert werdet und nicht mehr weiter wisst. Viel Spaß hier noch, von mir werdet ihr nichts mehr hören.

As no-one else who was at the meeting has posted this yet, here's kind of good news from Sunday:

OSgrid will not shut down forever!

It will shut down on December 31st at midnight, yes. But it'll shut down in order to wipe the asset server. Same thing as the Asset Reset last year. Then it will come back online.

This means your accounts and your avatars are safe. They will not be deleted. You will not have to register new accounts or create new avatars. You will get to keep the avatars which you have now. They'll just have empty inventories.

This also means you've got time until December 30th to save the stuff you have in OSgrid that you need to save. But please don't wait until the last moment. If all those who can export IARs do it at the same time, this will overload the asset server. (Yes, IARs are safe. They're copies of your inventory. Your inventory is not poisoned, even though the asset server itself is.)

If you have land attached to OSgrid, you may export an IAR. If not, I myself recommend you to send the items that you absolutely need saved to an avatar in another grid (and items that can be picked up from freebie stores right now don't fall under this category). Basically the same as last year, remember?

If you don't have land, but you absolutely need an IAR export for some reason (and laziness is no such reason, sorry), you may send albertIr Landar an e-mail, and he'll export an IAR for you. He will need your OSgrid login password for that. Again, don't wait until the deadline and ask him then. Even albertIr can only export so many IARs at any given time, and if 100 users mail him to export their IARs on December 30th, he most certainly won't get all 100 done before the shutdown.

One thing will change: OSgrid won't let anyone and everyone attach sims just like that anymore, starting next year. Only "trusted" hosters will be allowed to attach sims. Don't ask me what exactly that means; the OSgrid board hasn't published a definition yet either. I've overheard at the meeting that those who have sims attached to OSgrid right now count as trusted. But don't take this for official information.

If you want official information from the board: Wait until the OSgrid wiki is updated.

Hard work is paying off, here is a preview of our website. A few things will be email to fred on for him to fix on his end. Luckily its just an extension and dll file so easy easy fix. A few things here and there for the website but everything is clicking into place.

grid is back online, dream grid was updated, website working on php8.

Yana Dakota & Nyla Veyne

Different Names, One Creative Journey

Some journeys are not measured in miles, but in the worlds we create and the memories we leave behind.

For many years, Yana Dakota found joy in bringing little pieces of imagination to life. From the peaceful forests of Marluz to the quiet, spiritual beauty of Samsara, each world grew from a simple love for nature, creativity, and the freedom to dream.

Over time, life changed, and so did the name. Nyla Veyne became a new chapter in the same journey, bringing fresh inspiration to Solmara, with its sun-kissed shores, and Oasis of Veils, where music, mystery, and dance come together.

These worlds were never meant to be grand achievements. They were simply places created from the heart, where people could wander, find a little peace, enjoy music, or perhaps feel at home for a while.

Yana and Nyla may carry different names, but behind them lives the same imagination, the same love for creating, and the quiet belief that even in a virtual world, something beautiful can feel very real.

"Everything is impermanent. What comes will go. What matters remains."

Yana Dakota | Nyla Veyne

The clock is ticking and the shadows are getting longer. Tonight, from 2pm to 8pm, the Halloween party everyone’s been whispering about erupts into full chaos and you’re either inside the madness or outside wishing you were.

Three DJs are taking over the night with a relentless, pulse‑pounding Halloween soundtrack built to shake the walls and drag you straight into the dark. Costumes, lights, smoke, bass… it’s all dialed past maximum. This isn’t a party. It’s a full‑scale supernatural takeover.

Every minute you hesitate, someone else is claiming your spot. When the doors close and the energy peaks, you’ll either be part of the legend or stuck hearing about it from everyone who didn’t miss their chance.

Get here. Get inside. Get lost in it. Tonight only and once it’s gone, it’s gone forever.

I am doing some important updates to the server, looks like server is offline until it finishes the updates and restarts itself. all else fails my guy from the company i rent from can restart it.

In other news, I am making very good progress with Jommla 4 and jopensim. I have had alot of help from chat gpt and codex. great part is, its now works on php8 with joomla 4. I will have my tech guy test the website out with me to make sure it is good to go.

Aside from jopensim, there are some pages and plugins that we need ot enable and put in there places. And new ones we need to find since creators didn't create versions for 4

I have been up all night working on this, i now know how fred feels lol. Thank you fred for all you do.

Demo of new WolfChat and the Avatar Creator. Create custom avatars and clothing within WolfViewer and WolfStorm, now your groups have a full discord-like-chat and voice and can also be hooked up to your discord channels so users can chat their or in the viewer and in discord and not miss anything

# 🎙️ BloodMoon Grid Now Runs Its Own WebRTC Voice Server! 🌙

We are pleased to announce an important milestone for **BloodMoon Grid**!

BloodMoon has officially moved away from Vivox and now operates **its own independent WebRTC voice server**, hosted and managed entirely on our infrastructure.

After several weeks of development, testing, and improvements to the voice system, we have successfully deployed our new solution across the grid.

✅ **Proximity voice is now operational!**

Residents can communicate with nearby avatars using compatible viewers such as Firestorm.

🏡 **BloodMoon-hosted regions** have already been configured and restarted to use the new voice service.

🔧 **Externally hosted regions** connected to BloodMoon require a configuration update and IP authorization to access our voice infrastructure.

🚧 **Private IM voice calls and group voice conferences are not yet functional.** We are actively working on these features and will provide updates as development progresses.

### 🌐 A Step Toward Greater Independence

Our goal is to reduce our dependence on external services while maintaining a reliable and modern voice experience for our residents.

This deployment includes several fixes, adaptations, and improvements developed and tested specifically for our OpenSimulator environment.

We are happy to share this progress with the OpenSimulator community!

**BloodMoon continues to evolve, one step at a time.** 🌙

**⚠️ BLOODMOON GRID – VOICE SERVICE NOTICE**


Dear residents,

We are currently experiencing issues with the Vivox voice service used by OpenSimulator.

As some of you may know, Vivox announced several years ago that its free voice service for OpenSimulator would eventually be discontinued.

At this time, we do not know whether the current situation is a temporary outage or a permanent shutdown of the service.

**What does this mean for BloodMoon?**

- Voice communication through Vivox may currently be unavailable.
- The grid itself remains operational.
- Text chat, instant messages and other grid features are not affected by this voice issue.

**The good news:** The BloodMoon team has already been working on an alternative voice solution based on WebRTC technology, independent of Vivox.

Testing and integration are underway, and we hope to make this solution available across the grid once it is ready.

We will keep you informed as soon as we have more information.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

**The BloodMoon Grid Team**
