In a totally different light-- here's me singing Santa Baby in rehearsal for a concert in a virtual world, Kitely. Please disregard he crappy animations (they're about as good as they can be for the moment). I hope you like the singing. https://youtu.be/lcJXRis7KD8

Due to the copybotters I feel like i just better destroy my whole land because there is no way to check everything to see if it was stolen or not. I cannot have a region with stolen things on it, and then use it to advertise a more fair economy. So this may be the end then. I removed the link to this land from my website. This was already the second time I rebuild everything, I may not be doing it a third time. Logins are disabled, possibly forever.

Brownstone Apartments are here for you in many flavors Low Poly and with ubODE Physics, textures included for your mods, and few extra stuff for your urban projects as always FREE, PREMIUM and FULL PERMS to share with no mercy!!! Enjoy!!! :)

Dear clients,

The new server currently in operation does not yet meet the level of network stability and performance we require. We deliberately prioritize slightly longer simulator loading times in favor of a far more stable Internet connection and a smoother, more reliable avatar loading experience.

For this reason, Sunlight-Production will carry out an exceptional and unplanned full service interruption during the day, lasting a few hours. This intervention is necessary to restore the services under the same conditions as last week and to regain the level of stability that defines the Sunlight-Region standards.

We are doing everything possible to minimize the impact of this maintenance and sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding.

Sunlight-Production Team

Bonne année à tous 🎉 Que 2026 vous apporte joie, créativité et belles rencontres. Un nouvel endroit se prépare dans l’ombre… il arrivera au bon moment. Merci pour votre patience et votre soutien.

working on speeding up FSAssetService, i noticed in the loop it's got hard-coded 1 second delay per asset. So on a simple thing with 30 assets that's an extra 30 second of nada nothing. I added config option in Robust.HG.ini under

[AssetService]
WriteSleepMs = 10

so that's 10ms or .01 seconds instead of 1000ms but you can adjust in the config how you like it. in the Writer() function i changed Thread.Sleep(1000); to Thread.Sleep(m_WriteSleepMs); (which pulls value from config, defaults to 1000 if dne)

I also moved the spool directory to RAM disk where it determines the hash, and it checks the RAM disk for existing file instead of hitting the drive. Then it does the actual movement from spool to data directory in a background thread without blocking. So far I'm seeing simple remote objects imported over HG taking about 20 seconds that took about 3 minutes originally. Anyway if you want to test it out there's just one file change. https://codeberg.org/fionasweet/FSAssetService
let me know . If I didn't break anything maybe i'll submit a PR upstream.
