Voice in Opensim is a vexed question, and whilst most of us don't use it for a whole host of reasons it is a very useful thing to have. But, so long as there has been a 'free' alternative, most have been happy to use Vivox. For most people Vivox is probably fine, but for some there is one very big downside to using this service: it eavesdrops.

Some years ago I was working on an Opensim based solution for remote meetings, a place where we could virtually meet. Probably the most important criteria was security and privacy, so obviously Vivox, with its policy of eavesdropping was a non-starter. I had become aware of the Whisper project, but that only worked with Opensim up to 0.7.6, and whilst the module was then still available, it isn't now. Also, the Whisper project itself was abandonware. In 2014, Zetamex announced a bounty for anyone finishing the work on the Mumble-Whisper voice module, and started a crowdfunder, which predictably, this being Opensim, raised the derisory sum of $62 from four backers... https://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2014/01/zetamex-announce...

Even at the time, it didn't look as if the bounty would be claimed, as Vivox was still a viable option, so of course that's what people went for rather than for an independent voice solution for Opensim. I did try to contact the person behind the project at the time, as I would have liked to have supported the project, but they did not get back to me. The project I was working on didn't progress, but more because of the high entry threshold of Opensim/Second Life. I still have the OARs I made for the project however.

The EchoVoice project announced in late 2021 offered some promise even though the project was looking for $60k in initial funding. A cynic might think that raising a sum like that in Opensim is just pie in the sky, and so it proved. Thus far the project has raised $775 of the needed $60,000. Hypergrid Business described the project as suffering from 'delayed funding'. https://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2022/12/vivox-voice-repl...

And now that Vivox seem to be about to follow through on their decision to close off access to Vivox for most users of Opensim there is now a clamouring. The writing has been on the wall for a very long time, and there have been alternative voice projects launched from within the Opensim community that have been ignored.

At the end of the day we need to take responsibility for our own project. The Opensim project needs lots of things. Opensim needs its own viewer project with all the SL only gunk removing, and arguably a more formally organised Opensim fork project is needed to properly progress the project. But I doubt that any of this will happen because no one will cough up any cash. I know there are some users of Opensim who are extremely cash-strapped, but I reckon that most could afford the odd pound/dollar every once in a while to support projects in Opensim. Even in my most financially straightened times I could always find the odd couple of quid for causes that are important to me. Now that I'm somewhat more financially secure, I can afford to indulge more, but like most, I understandably want to be sure that any project I contribute cash to has a better than evens chance of reaching its goal.

There is only one way we will get the things we want in Opensim, such as a voice module, and that is through paying for them!

The Pumpkin House that traveled with us from the Old grid to the new. One of our many original decoration creations. It can be used as a fantasy home or shrink it and make it a decoration on a table, the possibilities are endless...pretty much... it's in the Holidays & Seasons department of the mall. Blessings and much love, Lavia

You will find that all but very few of the homes and buildings on display at the Star Jinn Palisade Mall are original builds. Even our shop buildings are original builds. Everything is free and very nearly everything is full perm and we're adding more as we get the stuff done. Stop by and check it out. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Salemaleikum und herzlich willkommen im Reich des großen osmanischen Reiches des Sultans Nojan Omar!

Ottoman Empire ist eine Rollenspiel Region von Noozara Roleplay. Das RP dreht sich um die Geschichte des osmanischen Reiches und dessen Verstrickungen in verschiedene Zeitebenen.

Einst herrschte der Sultan Nojan Omar über das Reich Atlantis, welches sich im Sternenbild Sirius befand aufgrund kriegerischer Auseinandersetzungen mit Piraten und anderen Sternenvölkern, sah er sich gezwungen seine Heimat mitsamt seinem Gefolge zu verlassen um sich auf den Weg zu Terra (Erde) zu machen. Leider ging auf dieser Reise etwas schief und das Raumschiff stürzte in ein Zeitloch welches die Insasssen zwar auf Terra katapultierte aber in eine Zeit um tausende von Jahren zurückversetzte. Das Schlimmste daran war, daß alle Insassen dabei ihre Erinnerung an die Zeit vor dem Absturz verloren und sich in einer Welt des osmanischen Reiches um das 14. Jahrhundert wiederfanden.

Für den Sultan uns sein Gefolge schien es als seien sie nie woanders gewesen und auch das dortige Volk hegte keinerlei Verdacht und akzeptierte den Herrscher ebenso.

Dann erschien plötzlich ein Sternendeuter und überreichte dem Sultan eine seltsame Flasche, welche ein besonderes Geheimnis verbarg...

Willst du auch Teil unseres abenteuerlichen Rollenspiels sein, so schau dir die Stadt Konstantinopel mit all ihren Winkeln und Gassen an. Vielleicht findest du darin deine Rolle und wirst Teil der Exotischen Reise in eine Welt aus tausend und einer Nacht .


Wir freuen uns auf Dich!

Introducing Star Ravenhurst's Beautiful Art Gallery - La Beau Retrouvè, designed and built by her and displaying much of her own artwork. The Genesis Roleplay Grid is proud to have Star as part of our family. Star will be accepting artwork from other artists who wish to display their talent in her gallery, and we will see to it that the artwork is advertised and displayed in a professional manner. Stop by the Star Jinn Palisade Mall and have a look at this beautiful Gallery (it's not completed with all the artwork yet), and visit the rest of the mall while you're here and take in a vast display of talent in various genres including buildings, furniture, plants, scenes, and many other items that you may find useful for your own grid!

Our latest arrival at the Wildlife Preserve are some wild Namib Horses. These horses are believed to be the offspring of German Cavalry, and were possibly abandoned after world war one. They are hearty and athletic and generally fare well until drought season.. I invite you to visit the Game Preserve and travel the entire region to see many of the animals in their natural habitats. There is more to the preserve than the restaurant and museum at the arrival point. If you love to just take a walk in a peaceful region and see the animals, then you will enjoy this. Blessings and much love, Lavia

My friends in SL wanted me to upload jewelry for them so I went in and tried to load these, they cost 98L for the upload, and when they do upload they are huge! and you cannot reduce them down to fit the avatar, they are thick and ugly! I would first have to make them nano (more work plus the cost of upload) So I came back to OpenSim and uploaded them for FREE, which means I can give them FREE! And they are not thick and big or ugly they loaded just the way I created them. All yours in the Monentes store foyer! virtual-hg.com:8002:Monentes Jewelry

Sail with Friends
Sunday at 12 noon

I don't know port from starboard....I get real confused on the sailing talk, and the headwinds have made me say some really bad words at times. You see.....I am not a sailor.....but I have learned to love sailing
...........and I do know how to have fun!

We have a group of friends who sail every Sunday at noon.. Last Sunday we had 5 sailboats and we were escorted by two airboats!

We try to be courteous.to our fellow boaters.....but occasionally there might be a bump or scratch ...(some days we all need brakes on boats) ; ) If you bump boats, we dont get all mad......but, you just owe two bottles of rum and a bikini top ; )

This is not quite as structured as the Palm Beach Yacht Club, but I think we have a lot more fun! We take things a little less serious than some Yacht Clubs. In our group we have some expert sailors and some novices and some speedboat drivers......but that makes it perfect!

If you want to meet people, but don't sail, come on out and join us! You can ride with us or drive a speedboat. We don't have attitudes, but we do have fun!

Here's the important info

Waypoints - any place with rum to steal
final destination - who knows
SF Sail - ok (preferred)
winds - I use e 25, but don't care what you use.
trim - manual or auto
Bwind - ok
Speedboat - ok
Airboat - ok
Jetski - ok
bikini on - ok
bikini off - ok
Smiles are required!

* boats are available or you may rezz your own
