If you need a little bit of R'yleh in your life, a little bit of madness by your side, a little bit of Lovecraft is all you need, a little bit of horror is what you see...

Then this is for you =) a pocket size Cthulhu to remind you the end is near, and it's cute.

Just don't click on it if you appreciate your sanity.

You can find this cosmic horror in the Shop and the mini shop at Wright Plaza.

Happy Sunday!

Bug Fix: Arcadia's Weather System

I did an oopsie. Thanks Ernest for the heads up, I've found an error in the script of the weather system, both master EEP and non EEP versions. While they will work in y-engine they won't at all in x-engine so I fix them, the new version is at the shop and the mini shop of Wright Plaza, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Aaack.-

Did you know?

There's a small object that will make the life of the rope bunnies and bondage enthusiasts easier: The Wall Ring.

It's a tiny object that you can rez everywhere to attach the lockguard chains system, the ring itself is unscripted, light and a single piece of mesh so you can resize it at your convenience.

It can be place everywhere and it's a convenient anchor point for leashes, ropes and other particles.

Happy Monday!

Texture refresh: Arcadia's Chest

Some people reported me that the chest I made 6 months ago lost it textures (they went blank), so I re-uploaded them and re-set the chest.

If you see the chest suddenly blank you can get a fresh copy at the shop or the mini shop at Wright Plaza.

Also the objects contains all the texture in the lid's contents, just edit, click on edit linked and click on the lid of the chest to see the textures.

Happy Wednesday!

Did you know?

I've a set of grand art deco lamps. Personally I believe that the style dress any house with an elegance that only the empire style can match (google it and fall in love with the empire style hehe).

My set comes in two versions, fully automatic to rez and forget and manual with options of different intensities and colours. It has two models, a wall mounted one inspired in art deco theatres and the ceiling mounted lamp inspired in grand train terminals.

Happy Friday (yay Friday!).

Today starts my Opensim Appreciation Giveaway, and it's happening all this week at OSFest from Monday July 18th through Sunday July 24th. Everything I have out on my four merchant regions at OSFest will be free, with the exception of two structures still under construction that I will debut in the next month. Freebies include castles, entertainment venues, statues, landscaping, airships, and decor of all kinds - if you see it you can get it for free. I have four parcels on the OSFest grid: one on the Chlorine region and three on Unobtanium.

DON'T MISS THIS

In addition, there are nearly 25 merchants participating with me in a massive sales event all week - sales prices and freebies galore. Supporting is caring, and encourages quality creators to set up shop in opensim.

Those of you with Blender should add the Sketchfab addon. It saves steps from hopping from one website to Blender. With the addon is adding a sketchfab library to your Blender desktop. I have been using it to import high heels for my mesh avatars. It has been fun!

New release: Arcadia's Spitoon.

A spitoon is a vase, normally made of metal used in bars and public places where chewing tobacco was a thing. It was meant for users of the tobacco to spit in the used thing, gross don't even begin to describe it.

My version is a beaten, old copper one you can rez as a joke, click on it to hear a cartoonish sound of a spit pinging the metal vase =D

Nothing says Xmas like a run down copper vase full of spit, yep yep.

Happy Sunday!

New release: Arcadia's Xmas Lights.

This is a simple add on for your existing christmas trees, a set of lights you can easily resize to adapt to any cone tree that features several lights mode, just rez, position and click for lightning options.

The script is super light and won't lag your sim at all.

The picture shows Encantada's White Pine Snowy and two sets of my lights on it.
The tree is not included in the box.

Happy Tuesday!

Have a great week! I modified "the abandoned church " a bit and put different items together.. Now you have a lava tongue entrance. Inside are the boxes with tons of Autumn and Halloween stuff. Keep healthy!

New release: Arcadia's Bunny kit.

This one took me a while to make.

For you, bunny girls and bunny boys, I made a kit of ears and tail.

They are animesh, they come in three sizes and five colours (including white, so you can tint them to match your avatar's look perfectly), they animate, when you stand, when you walk and when you run/fly.

You can choose between seven poses, do you want them straight up? One folded? both forward? or you can choose to animate them at random on random intervals (or custom time intervals too!)

It's all controlled by a HUD, and since it's animesh you can re-position the ears and tail.

The tail will randomly wiggle too.

Enjoy!

Cornflakes Week! It is the final week of February.
It's a uniquely Opensim festival, not linked to any season, religious, or national festival.
It's about silliness, fun and bright colors.
It's a way to show solidarity and unite opensim.
Any grid or region can hold their own version of a Cornflakes party! If you plan to mod your usual weekly dance event to make it cornflake-y I would love to know, and include it in the video this year.

Did you know?

Halls are tricky, those little spaces (or big ones) that connects a multitude of living spaces houses, which only function is to redirect transit. Do you fill it with frames and little tables?

Will you -ever- sit on those little armchairs?

Well I'm of the opinion that you can fill those spaces easily... with light! Lightning is paramount and so let me show you my art deco hall light.

It's fully automatic and it comes with two different textures, a brand new looking one, for a pristine presentation and a worn out one for a moody ambient. You rez it and forget, it casts a projector light so the ceiling won't be illuminated and since it's one single mesh object you can resize it at your convenience, it's all about options.

Happy Saturday! (Caturday! (do you remember that?)).

New release: Arcadia's Glasses.

To celebrate my new RL glasses I've decided to make a pair for everyone.

They're simple, un-rigged glasses for boys and girls with a nifty colour change script, just click on the glasses to make them match your outfit.

Boys have six colour choices and girls have seven (because pink has to be an option!).

It's a single object so you can resize it to make them fit perfectly to your avatar.

Also please read the manual to get tips about editing an attachment,

The textures are included inside the object for your mod convenience.

Happy Sunday!

Thanks to @Fred Beckhusen, and @Roland Francis for letting us celebrate Lord of the Rings week on their wonderful grids

One of the reasons I love Wolf territories - nearly all regions are connected to each other, and there are tons of them. This is from my newest store region under construction, and this view is looking west toward one of the several large mountains you can find across the grid that are not mesh - they are actual terrain. I could literally fly from here all the way to the other side of the grid. The venue in the photo is the Victorian Club that will be ready for sale soon.

New Release: Arcadia's Dance Pole.

This pole is a re-implementation of the Paramour Polemaster Lite, it contains the same dances, but the difference is that it doesn't contains any light script or colour changes, the mesh is completely different too, ideal for steampunk or less modern environments.

It sits 4 by default (you can change it, read the manual) and the mesh itself is elegant and light.

Happy Wednesday!

I have put down teleporters on my region, more to follow. This is what opensim is supposed to be, for everyone to share. My first 2 volunteers are Weltraumbahnhof and Avitron. Yes you heard right... one of them is Alex's place ... let the troll drama begin.... rofl

Arcadia Shop presents: The Lazy Stream.

As some of you may know, I've the kind of personality that enjoys social contact but it takes a huge deal of energy to do so, leaving me happy but completely exhausted. In other words I'm an introvert.

Of course, I'm not the only one! There's many of us around and for you, dear introvert I came up with The Lazy Stream.

Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday at 5 PM Grid time I'll live mix a style of music.

Ballad Monday: only ballads, slow, romantic songs.
Tuesday: It can be either rock and rock & roll or funky / jazzy + some dance.
Wednesday: I'll mix either slow pop or dance oldies or reggae.
Thursday: dance or EDM or fast oldies.
Saturday: trance caturday.

This program will vary a bit every week and will be played at the hidden disco at my store so you can come to dance...
BUT!
You can also access the stream directly from your web browser: http://207.244.232.104:7950/stream so you can listen to the music, very away from those pesky social interactions.

You can chair dance, you can be lazy: hence The Lazy Stream.

Some considerations:

I'm mixing live so errors can and will happen.
The Lazy Stream lasts one hour only from 5 PM to 6 PM grid time, I don't want to monopolize people's time.
It always ends with one specific outro song, if you hear that song you'll know the stream is ending.
And finally the link above exists only when I'm streaming, otherwise nothing will come up if you click on it.

I may add a reminder at the events part of the day's style but I won't spam you on the main time line, perhaps once a week I'll present you the weekly program, but that's it, I dislike the permanent event spam, so ... I won't do it myself!

Wish me luck, and I hope that you like the music I'll play.

Oh, today's is Dance Thursday.

New Release: Arcadia's Xmas Candles

This is a small decoration for your Xmas table, a nice place with candles, hollow leaves and berries and a festive bow. It's meant to be a simple decoration that cast a nice and warm light when you click on it.

Enjoy my last xmas object of the year and happy Thursday!

NEW FAIRY HUD!!!
So many people wanted a fairy magic hud... Well wish granted!
This amazing hud has many powers and hopefully will leave you spellbound.
Cast Magic Spells, Ride a Leaf Chariot, or even Meditate on the Magic Mushroom Circle.
As always DON'T SELL IT. Other than that, enjoy!
Note: click twice to open hud, click once to close it, and erase all magic.
Note2: You can put the magic into any necklace you like, if you don't know how just hunt me down, and i'll do it for you. :)

I created "Decorating Doves" when Freda Frostbite asked me to decorate her venue one year. Doves carrying different ornaments and ribbon when placed about look as if they are doing the decorating, it is a beautiful effect. I have created a few for you to add, please create your own ideas using doves to decorate, it really is lovely.
