I gave it a good go but the rigging of the jewelry caused the avatar cost to go up too much. I have decided to pull some of the bento because of complaints about the avatar cost. Before rigging the jewelry is decimated until it loses it's detail, so I am decimating as much as possible. I will keep playing with it until I can get the cost down. Thank you Typhaine.Artez for taking the time to help me perfect the jewelry. It has been a battle because it is such fine details which cost huge on some pieces no matter how much I decimate, or clean up. The other issue is, when clients wear mesh shoes, hair, clothing their avatar cost is up there, then by wearing my jewelry it goes up let's say the same as a pair of shoes, but because the jewelry is usually added last, the jewelry is to blame!! It is all adding to the avatar cost. Back to the drawing board. Thank you for all the support!!

Sub-Version Grid - will be going down for major maintenance some time tomorrow or Saturday.

As part of the maintenance, I am adding a new 4TB NVMe SSD to the Proxmox server which hosts the grid.

I am also building a new Debian 13 VM with more storage allocated than the 400GB it currently has, and finally migrate all the grid's data to the new VM.

It's the last step that will take the longest - rsyncing all the assets over from one drive to another will take several hours.

I am not going to be around on Sunday until the evening, so if the copy hasn't been completed by Saturday evening - the grid may not be up until Monday.

Happy Halloween!

Hello Everyone, come and explore Nevermore...

Puttering with cars again because it pushes my PBR skills in new directions. Today I finally had a breakthrough with PBR glass that looks much closer to the real thing. That's transparent glass in the photos with real reflections achieved by modifying a silver PBR texture I had.

SL, and by extension Opensim, did not implement the full PBR spectrum of textures, leaving out about 5 or 6 types. One of those not included was Transmission, which communicates to the graphics engine the details of the glass surfaces. So I basically have been wracking my brain on and off trying to come as close as I can to the real thing. Today was a good day.

Leo's Custom Tech N9ne "Ronald" Costume

So, I pretty much rode the "Watch the World Burn" train until i got somewhat burned out on that song. Made the t-shirt. Memorized the lyrics. Ronald has been my new song to digest and unpack...and it sure got me doing a lot of thinking. Song meanings, multiple meanings, etc. Decided to make a "close enough" version of Tech N9ne's costume from the music video. I guess what hits hardest is the senseless violence, shooting sprees, murders, especially in the USA, but all over the world, really. Some of us did not have a perfect childhood. Some are still struggling with issues of anger, depression, poverty, loss of loved ones, and more. I guess I am appalled at how many people are quick to judge each other if opinions vary. Metal music and hip-hop are criticized heavily, especially on Opensim, by older generations that don't understand it. Please understand THIS: I personally find singing or screaming along to songs like this, to be a much healthier outlet than punching holes in the walls of my house, self harm, harming others, and other things. It is one thing to say "this type of music is not my style". It is another thing to say certain music or entire genres are wrong, talentless, etc. To each their own. I am including the lyrics to the song in case anyone wants to think deeper and maybe understand some new things. Be kind to each other, OpenSim.

Once upon a time, everything was alright
I used to feel safe, not a worry in sight
Then I grew up, quickly realized
The world is a fucked up place sometimes
Death is at your door
Reachin' in from the other side
It's time to cut the cord
Hangin' on like a parasite, go (ah)
Hangin' on like a parasite
Hangin' on like a parasite
Don't hesitate, you're hangin' on for your life
Don't hesitate, you're reachin' out from the light
Walkin' on a razor's edge
My blood runs black, I'm not your friend, uh, fuck
Pull from the depths of the 36 Chambers, ah
Ah, pull the trigger, give a bullet to a stranger, nice
Ah, pull from the depths of the 36 Chambers (haha-haha-ha)
Pull the trigger, give a bullet to a stranger
I don't wanna die (die), but I'm not gonna live
In a place so cold, in a world like this (this)
Crucify me (me), it's blasphemy ('my)
Throw me in the fire, let me burn for eternity (go, go, go, go)
Burn for eternity ('y, 'y, 'y), eternity
I'll never be the one that will ever back down
Never turn around and run, never, never, never back down
Deep into the trench of a place unknown
Lies a dead man clutched to the bottom of a throne
At the bottom of a hole that nobody wants to go
It's the devil that you know that's gotta hold up on your wicked soul (damn)
What is up in your mind? Are you thinkin' the devil is makin' the crime?
Or the people are evil and never no demon design? Or the opposite of a divine? No
Yes, the hell is in front of you, side and behind, I can feel every sign of a human decline
I'm believin' the time is upon us when all of our people are blind (yo)
Red rain, saw it fallin' from a tower's dead plane
Head banged Mandalay Bay hotel, lotta lead came
Sex change could get you caught up in death range
He pled sane but really imitatin' Ed Gein
How do we get this way? Negative shit to say when you get dismay
Havin' a fit today so you wanna make a bitch decay
My son's mom went gone, it was really wrong
I thought I was gonna vomit searchin' for my son, but I didn't go John Muhammad
So the devil's right here on this level, wipe tears
That's 'cause when rebels ready to pop the heavy metal, why fear? (Yeah)
Abomination, they been fakin', consecration hatin', western education
Got that killer on a kid, I gotta chase 'em, go
Go
Spiralin' out of control and deeper down the rabbit hole, ay
Never gonna let them get the most of what they'll have to resurrect
You're sick to death, better take me down
I don't give a fuck, this disgrace to God (no), yeah (ah)
Never gonna let them get the most of what they'll have to resurrect
I don't give a fuck, this disgrace to God

Hi again everyone! Just an FYI, I have removed the Wednesday costume from my shop as well as the gown from the Lady Muerto costume. I gather from open sim. I have stated before that I am not the creator. You can examine each and while the box it is in may be mine, the items inside are not. Everyone have fun for Halloween! My shop will remain but as I have also stated in past posts, if you see something that is yours that you don't wish to have shared, let me know! I will remove it :) There is no way for me to know where, over the years, I have picked things up. But really...be nice and don't slam me in public :) I don't do that to people who obviously bring things from SL :) Happy Halloween!!

Roffellos.Kisses, I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for the stunning photographs of Los Pueblitos that you shared with me. The way you've captured the light, the reflections, and the essence of the place is truly remarkable. I can see the time, effort, and love you’ve put into capturing these moments, and I deeply appreciate it.

Los Pueblitos was created with the idea of offering a peaceful and serene space, where visitors can relax and enjoy the breathtaking views. I’m so glad that you’ve been able to experience it in such a beautiful way.

These guys have no guts, they sew seeds of discord, and they are all around GRUMPkins! And they make a really cute addition to your Halloween Décor. You will find them at the arrival point for the mall, but be sure to shop around once you get here and you may just find what you're wishing for. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Time to shine! I hope your computer is powerful enough to handle this :-))
