A gentle reminder to the self-appointed critics of the metaverse:

When you visit a curated experience and leave a one star review because you could not follow the rules, the theme or the personal boundaries set by the sysop, you are not exposing a flaw in the build. You are exposing YOURSELF.

Dismayland works like a carnival ride. You must be this tall to enter. This is not a suggestion. This is not negotiable. This is not a personal attack on your creative choices. It is a sign on a gate; read it.

Dismayland has height restrictions. It has had them. The compliance system has been OFFLINE for TWO WEEKS and people are STILL offended by the concept of it. That is remarkable. The gate does not even have teeth right now and the outrage is fully operational.

YOU READ THAT RIGHT ... the GATE has been down and these ORACLES of Wisdom never even bothered to check, no need to mention names, their self indictment is already on the wall.

This is the beauty of themed experiences; they are not for everyone and they are not supposed to be. If the child gate offends you, congratulations; it is working exactly as designed. Dismayland is a demusement park. The clue is in the name. The misery is the point. THE INCONVENIENCE IS THE ART.

As a bonus feature, the same system that checks your height also has opinions about poorly imported stolen Second Life meshes, that is an intriguing and welcome side effect. Dismayland enforces restrictions fairly as part of the user experience.

One star because you "dislike the policy" is not a review. It is a confession. One star because "the region recognized your self entitlement and processed you" is far more truthful and entertaining.

We thank you for your contribution to the experience. Your reaction has been noted, cataloged, and will be used as evidence that we are doing something right.

DISMAYLAND SECURITY IS DOWN until the MAIN LK EVENT (TBA)
At that time: COSTUME MANAGEMENT and ENFORCEMENT goes into effect.
I promise... that will end the complaints about the HEIGHT SCANNER... Muah ha ha ha ha ha!

Just sharing that due to hitting 500 cars on this simulator I had to evolve into rezzers. Experience is very enjoyable and will allow me to hit towards 1000 some day. Hard to believe I used to be very much like hardly any cars here.....

We're delighted to share a new free gift with everyone who visits Gallumbits!

Introducing the Gallumbits Dynamic Sun Dance Machine—a celestial dance experience that brings the ballroom to life with hundreds of dances beneath a shower of magical eight-point stars.

In OpenSimulator, some region creators are choosing PBR materials—and the results are impressive! ✨ PBR makes textures truly come alive: it accurately conveys reflections, roughness, and light refraction. Stone appears cold and rough, metal smooth and shiny, wood warm and textured. Landscapes, buildings, and details—everything looks more three-dimensional and realistic. Even clothing takes on new, beautiful properties. This isn't just a graphics upgrade, it's a new level of immersion: every corner of the region, every object, makes you want to look at it again and again. Explore the worlds of OpenSimulator—they're especially beautiful now! 😍

Nur eine kleine Auswahl – aber die hat mehr Persönlichkeit als manch echter Schuhschrank.

Diese Modelle sind für Reborn gedacht: digital, stylisch und mit einer Attitüde, die selbst im virtuellen Raum Platz beansprucht.

Glanz, Kante, Drama – jedes Paar wirkt wie ein kleiner Aufstand gegen langweilige Pixel.
Und wenn das hier nur der Vorgeschmack ist, dann wird der Rest vermutlich das digitale Universum zum Übersteuern bringen.

Reborn trägt keine Schuhe. Reborn setzt Statements.

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of classic rock performed live by Katia. Powerful vocals, an electrifying stage presence, and a dynamic live band will take you on a journey through the greatest rock anthems of all time.

new version of the Maze viewer available at https://maze.bz/mazebzviewer.zip version MazebzOS_AVX2-8-0-0-261780520 is an improvement of LOD rendering....I went about making sure that things don't crack up any more and well found a change that is relevant. Much better. Has things like a vehicle camera locker...terrain select all...terrain box mover... redone texture picker and many more. ENJOY!

Klarstellung:
da sich hier eine Person hier ständig darüber wundert, das ich neulich einen Thread bezüglich einer Facebookgruppe aus der ich gelöscht wurde, hier wieder gelöscht habe, hatte lediglich den Grund, dass ich keine Lust hatte auf einen Shitstorm hier, den ja hier gegen mich so gewisse dumme Gestalten gegen mich in Gang setzen. Ich dachte zuerst nicht darüber nach, aber als mir das schnell klar wurde, entfernte ich ihn wieder.
Diesen jetzt aber unmittelbar mit meinem Beitrag bezüglich Anachrons Krankenhausaufenthalt in Verbindung zu bringen, verrät doch so einiges über die Intelligenz dieser Person.
Ein anderer Schwachsinniger, den ich hier blockierte, beschimpfte mich sogar mit einem anderen Account hier per IM. Da ich seinen IQ aber eher unterdurchschnittlich einschätze, fand ich das eher belustigend. Alle anderen in meinen Augen erbärmlichen Hatern hier, die ihre kruden und verachtenswerten Statements hier ablassen: https://opensimworld.com/post/132126#cmt93658. , sei gesagt, ich verachte euch zutiefst, damit stehe ich nicht alleine, aber nicht jeder möchte dort kommentieren, was ich durchaus verstehe. Sie regen sich über diesen Post auf: https://opensimworld.com/post/132084#cmt93659
lasst euch an dieser Stelle gesagt sagen, das Anachron sich sehr über die positiven Bekundungen dort gefreut hat und ihn das auch etwas aufbaute. Schlimm das ihn das hier einige Mitglieder nicht zu gönnen scheinen. Einfach nur erbärmlich! Nur als Hinweis, sollten diese Hasstiraden hier im Beitrag weitergehen, werde ich sie umgehend entfernen!!

Clarification:
Since someone here keeps wondering why I recently deleted a thread about a Facebook group I was removed from, the only reason was that I didn't want a shitstorm here, which certain idiots seem to be starting against me. I didn't think much of it at first, but when it quickly became clear, I removed it.

To now directly link it to my post about Anachron's hospitalization says a lot about this person's intelligence.

Another moron I blocked even insulted me via private message from another account. Since I consider his IQ rather below average, I found it amusing. All the other, in my opinion, pathetic haters here who spout their crude and contemptible statements: https://opensimworld.com/post/132126#cmt93658. Let me say this: I despise you all deeply, and I'm not alone in that, but not everyone wants to comment there, which I completely understand. They're getting upset about this post: https://opensimworld.com/post/132084#cmt93659
Let me tell you that Anachron was very pleased with the positive comments there, and it cheered him up a bit. It's awful that some members here seem to begrudge him that. Simply pathetic!! Just a heads-up: if these hateful rants continue in this thread, I will remove them immediately!!

Drei Looks, die nicht fragen, ob sie dürfen.

Sommer, aber mit Zunge raus und Seitenhieb. Die eine spielt mit dem Licht, die andere mit der Schwerkraft, und die Dritte?
Die hat beschlossen, dass Regeln heute frei haben.

BK Reborn + Waifu: Für alle, die lieber provozieren als posieren.

One improbable evening, the crew of the Heart of Gold emerged from the Infinite Improbability Drive and found themselves at the most extraordinary destination in existence—Gallumbits, the legendary restaurant, lounge, and ballroom at the End of the Universe, home of the incomparable Eccentrica Gallumbits.

Tonight, that story begins again.

We invite you to step through the doors of Gallumbits and experience a destination inspired by Douglas Adams' unforgettable universe. Wander through its galleries and museum, explore the library and curiosity shop, try your luck in the casino, discover the avatar boutique, relax in the theater, or simply enjoy fine dining and dancing while music from across the galaxy fills the air.

Gallumbits is the imagination of Ferd Frederix—inventor, creator, and the one who brings the magic to life. His remarkable vision transformed an impossible idea into a place that can truly be explored.

Eccentrica Gallumbits is role-played by Marianna Monentes, who proudly joins Ferd as co-creator in bringing this legendary destination to life for visitors from across the metaverse.

Whether you come to dine, dance, explore, or simply smile, you'll discover that every doorway leads to another adventure.

Grand Opening of Gallumbits
"When the final star fades, the music continues."

Don't Panic... and welcome to the End of the Universe.

I have added a modified Auto Return script.

The original behavior could be inconvenient when using vehicles for exploration. For example, if you traveled by boat, car, or another vehicle and then exited it at your destination, the vehicle would immediately auto-return, leaving you stranded. The alternative was for region owners to disable auto-return entirely, which isn't always desirable.

This modified script changes that behavior. The vehicle will now only auto-return if the driver leaves the region. This allows you to park your vehicle while you enjoy an adventure, picnic, sightseeing, or any other activity, and still have it available for your return trip. Once you leave the region, the vehicle will automatically return itself, keeping the area organized without interrupting your outing.

Update: I’ve also added a water bobbing script for the boat. The bobbing effect is active when the boat is stationary, and it automatically suspends while underway so you can sail smoothly. Once the boat comes to a stop, the bobbing resumes, allowing it to float naturally on the water until movement begins again.

Update: Fixed an issue where the script would not automatically return when a player logged out. Also resolved a bug that caused returned vehicles and objects to lose their original rotation.

Update: Fixed issue where ship would eventually list: Latest is beta 3c.
