===Starchild Kin: A prologue===
The story above is prologue to the background story of the Starchild family at Darkheart’s Playground grid in OpenSimulator, and the future development of a HUD (aking to Bloodlines in Second Life) that will foster a roleplay of vampires, demons, angels and other races.

I have scripted an absolutely gorgeous vendor board. I've left it in my sandbox, where you can take a copy, right in the center. It's very low cpu usage. It works perfectly. You must put at least 6 items in it. You also put the pictures in it. Name the pictures the same thing as the items, but put a period in front of the picture texture name. That's all there is to it. It's very smooth, sleek, and sharp. Definitely the way to modernize a lot of these old dated vendors you see in so many malls these days. :)

Allow us to invite you to join our Friends of The Genesis Roleplay Grid HUD. Here we'll place a walk through (collision) teleporter with your logo and grid address so that when people walk through they will be teleported to your grid and the region you select. At Genesis Roleplay Grid we are working to create a more positive and cooperative atmosphere in Open Sim and we're doing it by networking grids and sharing anything that we can to help our "Friends'" grids succeed. The process is easy, contact me, Lavia Lavine, and send me your logo and the address and rezz point for your grid's chosen destination, and that's it. It's just that simple. Why do we do this? Because we want to and we can. I will also be forming a group for this for all "Friends of GRPG" to join so I can send notices and other information to those who join. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

I have often considered my underwater worlds
to be my best build ever. It took 6 months to find things, build
destroy, build, adjust and redo. Much of the time was spent searching.

This week I realized.....the best thing I can do for Opensim
is help all of you build underwater worlds if you wish.

now offers a massive Underwater section!

Hundreds of fish, coral, 5 types of rays, sharks, octopus, anemones, kelp and much more!

Enjoy making your dreams come alive!

I felt the earth move under my feet in NYC today. Thank goodness my Brownstones in Indigo Industries are still standing.

We are so not used to earthquakes on the east coast but this is the second one this year. The one we had in January however I didn't feel at all but people up in the Bronx did. The one today I felt it. And it lasted too long to me.
Did any of you feel the quake today in NYC or NJ or PA or anywhere in the NorthEast of the United States?

Well it is definitely safe here at Indigo Industries in Indigo Blue Realm on Wolf Territories.
We have furnished apartments.Transitory housing, free for new residents of Wolf Territories for 10 days while you decide where you would like to call home. 300 personal prims, parcel security, radio, welcoming community. Come take a look. If you want to stay with us after 10 days. Take a look at our Amethyst or Lapis Lazuli Villages.

Fantasie-Party
In der Nacht, wenn der Himmel sich verneigt,
Und die Elfen und Märchengestalten aus ihren Verstecken treten,
Da erwacht die Magie, die im Dunkeln liegt,
Lass uns den Zauber der Nacht umarmen,
Die Melodie der Sterne in unseren Herzen tragen,
Denn in diesem Augenblick, zwischen Traum und Wirklichkeit,
Erblüht die Magie – und wir sind Teil des Märchens.

Fantasy Party
At night, when the sky bows,
And the elves and fairytales come out of their hiding places,
Then the magic that lies in the dark awakens,
Let's embrace the magic of the night
Carrying the melody of the stars in our hearts,
For this moment, between dream and reality,
The magic blossoms – and we are part of the fairy tale.

Hello non-virtual people,
I come to ask for advice.
I have my grid's homepage set up with Joomla, which is old and outdated because the Jopensim module hasn't been updated again (a pity, because the work this person did was wonderful).
I've tried with Wordpress, and it's not going very well either.
I would like it if you could suggest alternatives for the registration and the grid's website. I am already discouraged, thinking I am a dinosaur on the verge of extinction.

Another thing, the other day I made a web viewer for the grid, a shame, it goes too slow and the new generations are about pressing buttons, not following a huge tutorial to be able to download, set up, and enter a Grid (I know it seems easy to you), but they look at me with eyes of "what???"
Has anyone ever tried this before?
Well, I hope for your advice, especially opinions, and I deeply appreciate it.

I made a tarot board for card readers. You click the board and it deals the cards, then as you turn over each card, it tells you the meaning in local chat. All tarot cards from the original deck with their original meanings are included. I FORGOT TO PUT IT OUT AT THE STORE. IT IS AT WIZARDRY ON THE RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS. :Þ

Love is in the air !!!!!


Musik, die Sprache der Liebe, flüstert ihre Melodien wie sanfte Brisen auf den Saiten unserer Empfindungen. Zarte Finger klopfen an die Türen unseres Gefühls und wecken Erinnerungen, die unter der Decke der Nacht verborgen waren. In ihren Tönen enthüllt sie Eindrücke der Vergangenheit, die Worte nicht zu fassen vermögen.

Ihr dürft euch wieder auf einen Abend mit romantischen Love Songs, schöner Balladen, und feinster Kuschel Muschel Musik freuen.

Genießt mit uns den Tag der Liebenden

Wir freuen uns auf euch .

Eure Souler

For the last 3 weeks, I have dealt with a intermittent issue on my grid that has about driven me nuts. I have tested, and eliminated possibilities …..without luck.

Yesterday two of the largest grid owners in open sim, Lone Wolf from Wolf Territories and Josh Boam from Aviworlds, took time from their busy schedules to help finally fix this issue. In addition , Rafael from Wolf Territories assisted. I cannot say thanks enough!

Although I work with Josh’s hosting business, this involved much more. Josh would not give up and recruited Lone Wolf.

In my opinion, maybe this is what opensim was designed to be: sharing of knowledge and helping each other.

Lone Wolf and Josh did not have to give up their time to help a tiny grid…..but they did!

Maybe we can all learn from these individuals!

Sharing knowledge is Caring



FYI. The default setting of 2 threadsets can cause major headaches depending on your region….it is way too low in some cases. You all probably know that…but I learned.

I was looking on Kitley MP for some things and went to the textures page. Timeless Textures is still there even though the owner of it passed away in RL almost a year ago. Their store on Second life Marketplace is shut down. If people are still buying her textures on Kitely where is the money going for those sales? I know that the most recent texture was uploaded in 2017. Should her store still be up on Kitely or has someone been given permission to use that name?

Bad news (good news for all you Linda Kellie haters): Zadaroo seems to be offline.

Good news (bad news for all you Linda Kellie haters), in case you haven't heard it yet: The Zadaroo content has been uploaded to the Internet Archive late last year.

Find it this way: https://archive.org/search?query=zadaroo

Also, I've just heard the recommendation to take local copies.

When I posted about my newest edition of overwatch sentry with height and age block menu's, it got a lot of negative comments and not one person posted anything good about it. This made me realize it is not a good idea, and I heard you. As a result I have canned that project and deleted the prototype from wizardry and from my inventory. I have schizophrenia, and I have had to learn not to be ashamed and to ask for help is the only way I can get it. But that also means sometimes I do things which are not normal, so I rely on the feedback of you guys to let me know when I've done something a bit odd. Thank you for your feedback, I have heard you loud and clear. :) No more overwatch sentry.

CLOSED!
That's it for this year. I would like to thank all of my loyal visitors who brought the sim to life. I hope you had a nice time. Many things that you suggested last year had been implemented and have brought a breath of fresh air into the sim.
Unfortunately, there were a few black sheep who didn't know how to behave. That's why I couldn't keep my promise to keep the sim open to everyone and everything this year.
Thanks also to the visitors who actually r e a l l y visited various Halloween Sims and then gave their great reviews.
I would like to thank you again for the many great encounters. It was an honor to be the host again this year.Hopefully we see you all back next year. Until then, have a good time.
Your Thomas

I am creating a few outfits of your favorite characters and adding them to the Classic Closet store. The first one is Nurse Chapel- Strange New Worlds!

**for the Classic Avatar**

Christine Chapel-Star Trek-Strange New Worlds

https://blog.trekcore.com/2023/07/star-trek-strange-new-wo...



Strange New Worlds revealed that Nurse Chapel helped develop the technology Starfleet uses to alter human DNA to turn them into aliens.

I adore this character so much that I wanted to create the outfit for her.
Pair it up with your favorite short blond hair!

It's that time of the year again when OSFest is nearly ready to open the doors of a new grid to exhibitors, merchants, and sponsors to start placing their creations before the official opening on September 15th. I know I've been working on my new exhibit since mid July.

OSFest (OpensimFest) is a big event with tons of exhibits from multiple grids, including individual exhibitors, merchants, and artists, as well as educators and grid owners. Each year they create a grid just for the festival with multiple regions and tons of performers that lasts 2 weeks. At the end they have a large celebration just before the entire grid is taken down until the next year.

If you wish to participate as an exhibitor, performer, or merchant, please go here to register for a parcel: https://www.opensimfest.com then click Register on the top menu line. Once the grid opens you'll receive a parcel number by email.

OSFest sponsors are those who support the grid monetarily to help offset the server and technical costs of running a short-term grid. Their support ensures the grid is free to everyone. If you would like to become a sponsor, go here to register where you can choose a support level you're comfortable with: https://www.opensimfest.com/sponsors

For those of you who would like to attend, you can find the calendar of events here: https://www.opensimfest.com/calendar

To hear all the news before everyone else, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/K7rWsJn6e9

New Release: Sol et Luna, a steampunk watch.

This time I made a simple wrist watch, it obviously shows the time but also the date in an unconventional way.

The wrist band can be either brown or black, it's controlled by a menu that appears on click and it comes for system avatars and ruth v2/4.

You can resize it to make it fit properly on your avatar and as always all the textures are included for your customisation needs.

Don't forget to read the manual.


Happy Saturday!

Hello Everyone.. I'm looking to hire a scripter to create a specific item I need for inworld.. Please send me a message here or on Discord RogueGalaxy #6096 if you know OpenSim Scripting or can refer me to someone who is a great awesome scripter! I can pay!
I'm looking to have something similar to this.. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Oh-Otis-Performer-Boa... created, I dont want that shape board.. would prefer square and bigger photo display.. but that's the general idea.. I Want to use it for Open Mic Morning..

In reference to my post yesterday..
A professor gave a balloon to every student, who had to inflate it, write their name on it and throw it in the hallway. The professor then mixed all the balloons. The students were given 5 minutes to find their own balloon. Despite a hectic search, no one found their balloon. At that point the professor told the students to take the first balloon that they found and hand it to the person whose name was written on it. Within 5 minutes everyone had their own balloon.
The professor said to the students: “These balloons are like happiness. We will never find it if everyone is looking for their own. But if we care about other people's happiness....we'll find ours too. This is the same as "community building" if we all help and support each other.. we would be much happier.. just something to think about.. as a side note.. I love teachers who teach like this!
Here’s to caring about everyone’s happiness .. now and always!

Updates!

We’ve released a bunch of updates for your collar, AO HUD and Owner’s HUD.
If you have a recent version you can get the updater, rez and click on it to update your device.
However the Owner’s HUD have some structural changes that needs a new copy to be used.
The AO and Collar (whichever model) can be upgraded directly.

What did it change?

Owner’s HUD:

Updated graphics.
New: Button with rounded corners for the sub selection.
New: If a picture of your sub is not added into the HUD, the initial of the name will show instead.
Updated: There’s a new way to store subs in the HUD, the notecard is no longer necessary (check the troubleshooting notecard to understand how to use it in HG).

AO and Owner’s HUD:

Updated: Reduced calls to the asset server for better performance.
Updated: Optimized setting storing.

Collars:

Fix: Themes in some cases wouldn't change if selected.
Fix: Garble plug-in works properly.
Fix: In rare case local chat triggered the safe word.
Update: The undress plug-in now shows hints for the most common use of smart wearables (i.e: shirt could be corset, t-shirt, polo, etc.).
Update: Allow attach can be also toggle by the owner instead of only the collar wearer.
Update: Limit the leash grabbing to 30 metres.

Happy Wednesday!

Also take the note card from the info box with you - it might help to understand the game easier - and also to find the searched persons faster.

I wanted to share something that might help some of you. I was recently very sick. I called around several doctors offices trying to get in with a super bad case of the flu. They all were booked up! So I decided to try a different approach. I went online and there i found webdoctors.com. I called them which costed $59, and they called in flu antivirals to my local walmart, which costed another $34.00. I am feeling much better. You can contact them either over video, or over the phone. For those too sick to leave the house, this is a great option. I just want to help you all. There may be other web doctors on the web you can try. But my wait time with this one was 8 minutes, and the phone rang. incredible!

Hello all :)
I see a lot of photos and exciting places on OW, I invite anyone who wants it and who has a flickr account to register on my group to make known the good addresses of the hypergrid to all those who consult the photos of the virtual worlds on Flickr. Leave your LM of course, on your photos, show your avatars too.

A big thank you to those who have already joined :)

Current exhibition is : "Face to face"

... is about the emotion around a face, an attitude, in the fleeting moment, a stolen moment of femininity, this exhibition shows the woman in her feminine states, the faces are subject to effects, depicting time and space, words accompany the images, but they are read and let themselves be carried away by the imagination, yours, it is this imagination that finally registers to speak to you...
I invite you, your sensitivity and your words if you want to share them with me :)
