Hey lovely people! Just wanted to give a heads up that is getting veeery busy at work at the moment, in case you see me a bit less active around! Layoff season so...having to do double!
Also last sets I am bringing are much more complex on hudding, blending, masking, which take more time...
Huuugs!

I received the message today that the grid where my store is located will be closing its doors on June 30th, 2025. Now I think it's time to finally end my work for the OS. After several restarts on different grids, I'm tired of starting over again and again. With that in mind, I'm saying goodbye with a tear in my eye and a smile. I wish all my friends continued fun in OS. Maybe we'll see each other again sometime.

LETS SPREAD POSITIVITY NOT HATE!

Lately I have noticed a lot of drama, hate and bashing towards other people. I try to ignore most of it but lately it has become to much. Why do people feel the need to use hateful words or put someone down.

No matter what religion we are, gender, political views or whatever it is, cant we just agree to disagree.

I have seen a lot of people in my time in Opensim do amazing things, anyone that can DJ, build, script and anything else, is awesome to me. For the ones that constantly tell everyone they are awesome its because they are. They do a lot of things i do not know how to do or cant.

So in conclusion, I would like to say thank you to all creators, builders, scripters, and etc, because without all of you, my regions wouldn't look as good as they do. I may take things and place them and put them together but the credits go to the creators, builders and scripters.

Instead of name calling and tearing people down, lets be a little kinder, lets ignore the negative and worry more about spreading positivity.

Comment's welcome but please be kind :)

Mein geliebtes Weib, meine Siwas
Ich will versuchen dir nur zu versprechen was ich auch halten kann.
Ich kann dir die Welt nicht zu Füssen legen, sie gehört mir nicht.
Ich werde dir keine Sterne mehr vom Himmel holen denn das habe ich schon und du hast deinen Stern.
Ich habe damals gesagt dieser Stern soll dich beschützen und über unsere Liebe wachen. Das hat er getan und uns nach unserer Trennung wieder zusammengeführt.
Vielleicht merkt man erst bei einer Trennung was man wirklich verloren hat.
Wir sind wieder zusammen und nun will ich dich endgültig als meine Frau und werde alles tun dass wir zusammen glücklich sind und unsere Liebe für immer bleibt.
Siwas, du warst immer, du bist und du bleibst für immer mein Baby,

Upgraded the horse rezzer script from the popular NPC horse rezzer to an "All-in-One" Animesh Horse Rezzer, with a load of features in the animesh horse.
Tip: to avoid the horse from dying, remove the "animesh horse rez" script, and have it roam around an area of your region or parcel, follow other horses, and other options.

One of the major benefits of the animesh horse is that it can cross regions (if allowed by the sim owner).
When you own the animesh horse, you can wear it an teleport around.

For all of you interested in animesh: I made a new animated free roaming dragon thats now available for testing peer review. Pick up a copy in my shoppie, read the notecard and knock yourself out!
Lemme know if the notecard was clear enough...its a bit tricky with this roaming script....
Have fun!

After being asked several times whether I'd rebuild the old Yin Yang Town, and saying no, I've now decided to box up EVERYTHING that was once in YYT and make it available to you for free. For this purpose, I created the YYT Marketplace. I'll gradually put everything there as I find it again; the first items are already available.
You can find the teleport to the YYT MP in the CCC Main Store.

Hello, I try to participate by mixing the useful with the pleasant, I wanted to make a gallery of people on Opensim, and I opted for a gallery on Flickr, more easily consultable. For this I need the help of all those who want to participate, without your help, the project will fail because it is about the people of Opensim. I take the photos, I try to capture something special in each of you, if you like it, and to bring out the image of a community in black and white, you have to come into the world to see the colors. Here is the beginning of the gallery. Thank you for your attention, friendly. Send me a message here or in world to help me and dont be shy :)

Our latest addition to the Sub-Version mall: The Garden Centre.

Large collection of unique items for your garden - many with a fantasy feel to them.

As always many many items at other stores at Sub-Version Mall.

This is now starting my 15th year of trying to improve Opensim with the DreamWorld and DreamGrid systems. I haven't done an OSCC talk for several years so I thought I'd give a quick review of some Opensim stats that I track. This data is based on anonymous data from the DNS servers ns1.outworldz.com and ns2.outworldz.com and the publicity checkbox, which generates XML for the https://outworldz.com/search function. I am also able to count some stats from known 'other' grids via a web crawler that runs hourly scans.

There are now 259 free OARs, and that includes 63 exclusive regions for DreamGrid owners. I licensed these from the creators, and collections are copyrightable. The most popular Public OARS are at https://outworldz.com/cgi/freesculpts.plx?q=OAR- and sorted by popularity are IARS at https://outworldz.com/cgi/freesculpts.plx?q=IAR- I have many more to upload still.

I do not have access to any of your assets, backups, OARS, IARS, or any personal data. My servers periodically crawl the web looking for Opensim servers from publicly available sources such as my visitor lists, the data I publish and from Hypergrid Business.

DreamGrid goes back to 2011, when it was called DreamWorld. I didn't always track much back then and periodically flushed the database. Since 2018 (6 years) , there have been 5,180 distinct DreamGrid instances. People created 12,280 different grids with it. and 3,378 were online in 2024. In that same time period of six years, I've located 2,935 standard grids. In 2024 alone, there were 2,762 unique DreamGrids online.

Sl has 18,326 private estates, which are equivalent to the 12,334 regions in Dreamgrid. However, we have much larger regions, the equivalent of 73,341 SL regions. An SL region costs $349 to set up, and $209 a month to rent (not own). The first year, one region costs $2,857, the second year $2508.

When you compare DreamGrid with the SL private estates, we've collectively saved $209,535,237 in the first year, and $183,939,228 per year after that.

**1 Year Anniversary of Starchild Shoppe: NEW LOCATION!**
1 year ago Starchild Shoppe opened its doors with a single furniture store. Since then it has expanded beyond what I could have imagined! I want to thank every single person who has crossed its door and has taken the time to thank the effort behind!
I have also heard your feedback, it is why I have consolidated all the stores into their own region with a central store (beauty) at ground, and then skyboxes reachable via the TP board. Super special thanks to Shan Naggins for making it happen! What was going to be just one new store, ended up being an entire mall set up with much more room for growth!
NEW LOCATION: hop://playground.darkheartsos.com:8002/Starchild%20Shoppe/...

They are exhausted, but the fox hunt went well (or studying scripting pack behavior)

Sim crossing over 4 var regions with followers works extremely well IF you cross calmly and keep your objects close.

Bonjour,
Vous ne verrez plus çà, vous ne verrez plus jamais cela.
Le marché de Noël est mort, et ce n'est pas moi qui l'ai cassé !
Merci à tous ceux et toutes celles qui furent présents pendant ces 10 années, merci de votre soutient.
Maintenant c'est fini merci et au revoir.
N.B.: ce marché est l'oeuvre de Freddy Wright sur Francogrid vers 2010, et de personne d'autre.

Hello
This year you won't see that, you won't see that anymore.
The christmas market is dead.
I don't break it.
Thank you to all those who where there during ten years.
Thank you for your support.
Sorry Isn't my fault
Kisses

🎉 OSgrid is now open to the public again! 🎉

We’re happy to announce the official reopening of OSgrid!
To ensure a smooth and stable experience for everyone, please take the following steps carefully:

🧹 Before doing anything:

Clear your viewer caches (both textures and inventory).

Reload your regions (OARs) first using the following command:

load oar test.oar --force-assets
(Replace test.oar with the name of your own OAR file)

For IARs (inventory backups), please wait a little longer before uploading. Let’s take it step by step.

🌀 At LBSA Plaza:
You’ll find a question mark “?” on the plaza. Clicking it will help you stop appearing as a cloud.
Don’t forget to wear the folder offered through it to restore your avatar appearance properly.

🔄 Simulator update required:
Make sure to update your sim to the latest code on the website:
👉 https://osgrid.org/download.php

🙏 Thank you all for your patience and support.
This slightly extended downtime has allowed us to come back stronger, offering a more professional and stable experience for the entire OSgrid community.

See you in-world soon!
— The OSgrid Team

I am pleased to announce the opening of the Selea Core Store, located in the southeast corner of the Star Ravenhurst Designs region. This project, which I dedicated over two weeks to last November, aims to preserve the body of work created by Selea Core, who left Open Sim unexpectedly around 2016-17.

At that time, Victor DeAngelo, Ms. Kal, and I gathered all the available Selea Core products. Victor also sourced additional items, re-boxing and labeling them since many were originally stored in folders rather than their original packaging. These items were subsequently offered at his shop.

Years later, I observed that many of these boxes had migrated to different locations, and several had become corrupted, containing duplicates or broken items. Consequently, I undertook the task of meticulously cleaning, repairing, and reboxing them with new labels to distinguish my collection from others. Additionally, I included rare Elven items from my collection that are not widely distributed elsewhere.

While I strive for perfection, I acknowledge that some boxes may not be flawless. However, I assure you that the Selea Core boxes available at this shop are clean, up-to-date, and ready for you to take home.

Please note that Selea Core often used Rezzers for her houses and many of her scenes, typically designed for a single 1x1 SIM. You will need to adjust the script to match the size of your region for the rez box to function correctly. If you require assistance, please feel free to reach out.
Special thanks to Victor DeAngelo for helping to preserve the work, Jupiter Rowland for sharing his SC collection with me, and Ms. Kal for leaving my boxes in her sandbox all this time so I didn't lose the collection.

Ich wünsche Euch und Euren Familien ein schönes gesegnetes Weihnachtsfest 🎄🎅 und für 2024 ein Jahr voller Glück und Harmonie, zufriedenen, fröhlichen Stunden, wundervollen Momenten und vor allem Gesundheit

I wish you and your families a wonderful and blessed Christmas 🎄🎅 and for 2024 a year full of happiness and harmony, content, joyful hours, wonderful moments and, above all, good health
