We are in shock this morning as our wonderful Luna Lunaria, for whom Wolf had become her home, has passed. We will not be taking her regions down unless instructed to do so. They are some of the most incredible, beautiful regions in OpenSim. We'll just leave them where they are and we'll be placing a memorial at our Memorial region today. Please get in touch with Lone Wolf at our grid or lone@wolfterritoriesgrid.org if we can be of any assistance.
Lone will be at the welcome area as usual today.

Exploring Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland is not simply a virtual landscape but an entire world sculpted from imagination, shimmering snow, and the warmth of holiday spirit. Entering the region feels like stepping through a frosted gateway into a place where every element—every drifting snowflake, every echo of laughter, every sparkle on the ice—invites visitors to rediscover childhood wonder. From glistening skating plazas to the legendary North Pole itself, Winter Wonderland offers an experience rich with movement, magic, and festive charm.
The journey typically begins at the Crystal Lake Ice Rink, a vast oval of frozen perfection surrounded by towering pines powdered with snow. Soft music rings through the crisp air, encouraging skaters of all skill levels to glide, spin, or wobble across the glasslike surface. The rink’s edges are lined with twinkling lights, making the entire scene glow with a soft, wintry radiance. You can see families linking hands as they attempt a synchronized glide, couples tracing figure-eights side by side, and solo adventurers testing new twists and daring leaps. The soundscape is an uplifting blend of scraping blades, bubbling laughter, and the occasional joyful shriek as someone regains their balance just in time. It’s a place where movement feels effortless, and the cold seems to energize rather than chill.
Beyond the rink lies the Snowmobile Ridge—a thrilling expanse built for speed and excitement. Snowmobiles of every size and color wait neatly in rows, each one equipped with sleek handlebars and engines that hum with anticipation. Riders follow winding trails carved into the hills, racing past icicle-encrusted cliffs, drifting through tunnels of snow-dusted branches, and launching over gentle slopes that provide just the right amount of breath-catching lift. Whether cruising leisurely or speeding toward a horizon tinged with violet winter light, visitors experience an exhilarating blend of freedom and festive adventure. The chill of wind rushing past one’s face mingles delightfully with the cozy glow from cabins scattered along the ridge, offering warm drinks and a place to thaw before the next ride.
Yet the true heart of Winter Wonderland lies in the North Pole, home to Santa’s legendary workshop. Approaching the North Pole feels like entering the center of holiday myth itself. Giant candy-cane pillars rise on either side of a wide, snowy path. Multicolored lights twinkle along rooftops shaped like oversized gingerbread houses, their chimneys puffing out clouds of peppermint-scented steam. Reindeer tracks crisscross the snow, leading toward a fenced corral where the famous herd occasionally peeks curiously at visitors.
The workshop is a bustling hive of magical activity. Inside, the air smells of cinnamon, pine, and freshly sawed wood. Conveyor belts carry half-constructed toys; gears, ribbons, and tiny mechanical parts fill the room with a gentle clatter. And everywhere—absolutely everywhere—elves can be seen. These cheerful workers, clad in bright greens and reds, are constantly in motion: hammering, painting, wrapping, organizing. But they’re not all business. Some elves can’t resist their mischievous impulses, sneaking outside to engage in spirited snowball matches. Snowballs fly across the courtyard in glittering arcs, bursting into powder upon impact. Others twirl and dance in choreographed routines, stamping tiny boot prints into the snow as they spin to jolly tunes.
Just beyond the workshop lies perhaps the most whimsical attraction of all: the Snowmen Collection, a floating assembly of snow sculptures drifting atop large, gently bobbing icebergs. Each snowman has a unique personality—some tall and stately, others short with round, jolly faces. Many are adorned with scarves, hats, lanterns, or even little carved instruments. They sway softly on their icy platforms, creating a surreal parade that shifts slowly with the water’s movement. Visitors often hop from iceberg to iceberg, careful but delighted, taking in the artistry and charm of each snowman. At times, the snowmen appear to communicate through subtle changes in posture or expressions carved by the frosty air. Under moonlight, the entire collection glows faintly, as though illuminated from within, turning the area into a quiet, dreamlike sanctuary.
Winter Wonderland is more than a collection of virtual attractions; it is an emotional landscape. It evokes nostalgia while inviting creativity, balancing exhilarating activity with cozy comfort. Whether one is racing down the slopes, drifting among snowmen, joining the elves’ joyful chaos, or simply watching snowflakes fall against the gentle glow of distant lights, the region offers a sense of peace paired with boundless delight.
To explore Winter Wonderland is to step into a living celebration of the season—a place where adventure thrives, imagination flourishes, and every corner brings the promise of magic just waiting to be discovered.

About the newest Firestorm Viewer: I want to love it, but I don't. I really do love PBR materials and they show up just fine with the new viewer and they seem to have fixed the blurry, out of focus view when you move around in-world. Problem is, Animesh. I have to be right on top of the animesh to see it move. Koshari and I were in-world tonight and couldn't see any animesh moving unless we were right next to them and even then they seemed to lag out a bit. We both changed our viewer to the old, pre PBR viewer 6.6.17 and could see the animesh moving from all the way across the sim. My guess is that, because you are constantly rendering PBR textures in-world, they decreased the animation visibility to compensate for it. Until Firestorm gives us a toggle, slider, or patch to bring back proper animation distance, sticking with 6.6.17 is the smart move. The PBR viewer is beautiful, but not worth sacrificing functional animesh. That's a hard pass for me
Anyone have thoughts on this? Does anyone have any inside scoop on whether they plan on fixing this.
“Animation culling” is basically the viewer deciding not to bother updating animations for things that are “too far away” or “not important enough.”
Think of it as Firestorm saying:
“Hmm… you’re 40 meters away from that animesh? Yeah, I’m not wasting CPU cycles on making it dance. Freeze frame it is.”
More technically:
Animation Culling = Distance-Based Animation Shutdown
The viewer stops updating animations on avatars or animesh once they’re beyond a certain distance or priority threshold.
Instead of actually animating them, it just shows the last frame and saves performance.
Why viewers do it
To reduce:
CPU load
GPU load
Network updates
Overall rendering cost
In the PBR viewer, the rendering pipeline is heavier (PBR = shiny but hungry), so the viewer culls animations more aggressively.
What is the point of animesh if it only animates when you’re making out with it?

Moby – Der Weg eines Musikpioniers
Richard Melville Hall, der spater als Moby bekannt werden sollte, kam am 11. September 1965 in Harlem,
dem pulsierenden Herzen von New York City, zur Welt.
Seine Familie war gepragt von einer Mischung aus intellektueller Tradition und Alltagsnot.
Sein Vater, James Frederick Hall, ein engagierter Chemieprofessor, gab dem kleinen Richard kurz nach seiner Geburt den Spitznamen Moby,
inspiriert von der literarischen Erbschaft des Ur-Ur-Großonkels Herman Melville,
dessen Roman Moby Dick ein Meilenstein der amerikanischen Literatur darstellt. ...

I am aware of an issue with this region not being accessible via HG, map, teleport or grid members. The region shows in the Dreamgrid regions folder but not in the main GUI window. I do get emails about expired rentals which indicates its online but there is no dos box to prove that.
The cause of this is unknown, DG was recently updated to fix another issue. I noticed the region having issues after the update. Update doesn't mean its the cause.
I will fix this as soon as i can or once I know how lol. Apologies to all who have rental's on this region in my grid.
I know I can create a mantis but lets see if I can solve this on my own, maybe my tech guy will be able to figure it out, he is very smart but also so busy. So I guess I am putting my brain to work lol.
