Since I released the Cinema Complex last year, I've had a few of you ask if you could get just the ballroom section I created for it. That new ballroom is now nearly complete with brand new pbr textures (as shown), as well as older fallback textures so that everyone will see something. I'll post in a couple of days when it's complete.

**A Tribute to Verna Avril: DJ, Creator, and Friend**
Today, we pause to honor and celebrate the extraordinary Verna Avril, a beloved DJ at Event Plaza, an accomplished builder, and a cherished friend to so many. Verna has recently been diagnosed with late-stage cancer, and while the news has left us heartbroken, her unwavering spirit continues to shine brightly in the time she has left.

For those who have had the privilege of knowing Verna, you know her as a force of nature. Her music has been the heartbeat of Event Plaza, where she transforms gatherings into magical experiences, spinning tracks that bring people together and create memories that last a lifetime. As a DJ, Verna doesn’t just play music—she shares her soul through every beat and rhythm.

Beyond her music, Verna is a visionary builder and creator. She owns and curates numerous regions, each a testament to her incredible talent and love for creating beautiful spaces. Her worlds are filled with life, imagination, and wonder—a reflection of her boundless creativity and dedication.

Verna’s style and charisma are as unforgettable as her music. Always impeccably dressed in her signature short black dresses, she carries herself with grace and confidence that inspire those around her. But it’s her warmth, kindness, and generosity that truly make her unforgettable.

In this challenging time, Verna has shown us the depth of her strength. Even as she faces this diagnosis, she continues to remind us of the importance of living fully, loving deeply, and creating beauty wherever we can.

As her community, let us rally around her with our love and support. Share your stories, your memories, and your gratitude for the joy she’s brought into your life. Let’s celebrate Verna Avril—not just for what she’s accomplished, but for who she is: a beacon of light, creativity, and love.

We don’t know how much time we have left with her, but we do know this—every moment with Verna is a gift. Let’s cherish these moments together and honor her legacy, now and always.

Stay strong, Verna. You are loved more than words can express. 💖

Aussie and I will be hosting an event to celebrate our friend Verna Avril. In the meantime, please post messages for her here as she cannot be in Opensim but can read this website. Thank you in advance for posting for her! I will make all the messages and stories into an online book for Verna.

'...And ye shall be free from slavery. And as a sign that ye be really free, ye shall be naked in your rites. And ye shall dance, sing, feast, make music and love all in my praise.
For mine is the ecstasy of the spirit, and mine also is joy upon Earth, for my law is love unto all beings...'

Today is the day!!! I am so excited to finally open the gallery for all to enjoy! Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me over this long journey to get here. I can't wait to see you all! Noon grid time. Formal because we like to dress up!

Die Botschaft von Weihnachten:
Es gibt keine größere Kraft als die Liebe.
Sie überwindet den Hass
wie das Licht die Finsternis.

The message of Christmas:
There is no greater power than love,
she overcomes hatred,
like light the darkness.

AnatoBotanica is the name of the current sculpture collection I am doing IRL under MVN name, my initials.


Inspired by the connection (and the lack of connection) of human being in its environment, the nature.
Made of organic shapes, hybrid creatures comes to life with the use of moss and a lot of gold paint on PLA which is a bioplastic, sometimes clay and paper are added for the finest parts.

To introduce this new art form I am experiencing in opensim, I chose to show a glitched version of the real space I work from, my home.

My home is my shelter, but also my workshop.
The stones of the walls, the plants and animals living in the garden, are themselves an inspiration. Observing birds, bees and butterfly, listening to their songs, watching these creatures feeding from flowers, those simple « little things of life » are deeply touching my soul and question my own place in this world.

Opensimworld.com is a great way to promote all the wonderful creations we can find in different grids and I think this is the purpose of this website. Promoting creativity, giving people the ability to explore and see what others create. This is why Im sponsoring this website with advertisements and announcements. Lately I observe this place is filled with comments of personal kind , ( some would call it drama ). I am sure the majority here visiting this website for the same reason as I do are not happy with the continuously posted remarks of personal kind ( and disrespectful) . I wish to ask all who use this wonderful website to consider , where it was built for. If this website will become a gathering place for people who wish to display their frustrations, it will chase away others who are willing to invest in this medium. Please take this in consideration before you post ( and please use English if you can, this is an international community)

Hello!

We are making a change for regions that are closed to group access only. While it is allowed to list your region here (if it is hypergrid-accessible), your region must be assigned to the category "Group Access/Private". You can go to your region's page to change that category.

The regions that are group-only will be marked with a [G] in the beacon and in the website listings

Bald ist es soweit - noch einmal schlafen, dann startet - wie jedes Jahr - der Adventskalender auf Eternal Ice.
Alle Geschenke sind von ihrem jeweiligen Tag bis zur Entfernung des Adventskalenders erhältlich- es gibt also keinen Zeitdruck, jeden Tag nach dem Kalender sehen zu "müssen", um kein Geschenk zu verpassen ...
* * *
Soon it will be time - sleep once more, then - like every year - the advent calendar on Eternal Ice will start.
All gifts are available from their respective day until the Advent calendar is removed- so there is no need to check the calendar every day to not miss a gift....

Winter is here, Yay! Well, yay for some :).
I have a new release today, fairly whimsical; Polar Bear Ceiling Lights. They were made as ceiling lights and they are resizable. I did a large version separately as the automatic light script had to be adjusted for the life size bears.
There are automatic and manual light scripts in the regular size lights, you can delete the auto script in the large ones and put in the manual if you like.
I have a couple of more ideas for the bears that will be out soon.
Have a beary nice day!

New out today at Willowbrook Gardens: Underwater Set. I put all this coral and kelp into a giant Aquarium just for fun. Everything is free and full perms for you to do as you want. This is a snapshot taken in world so what you see is what you get.

Public Notice: Outworldz, LLC. purchased and owns the rights to distribute LostWorld and Galaxy Wars regions. I purchased them from Joe Builder. I plan on releasing some of these as free OARs in the future. If you want any, you need to ask me.

In other news, my latest work in DreamGrid is Not Yet Ready To Release. but getting close. We are on the 6th or 7th beta this cycle. Contact me if you wish to be an Alpha tester.

Claude MCP server, Web API, Save IARs and OARs from web page all work, lots of new things and updates to the GUI. There are hundreds more unit tests now.

A) DreamGrid Service: Runs both as a foreground App and/or service. Survives power fail and reboot. Melania's Console now auto populates in service mode. You can install and then connect from her console on MACs and Windows, and there is a web console as well that is fully finctional. I plan on making this look more like Diva in the near future..

B) Built in GLB/GLTF/DAE viewer and loader. Works well on static mesh,and clothing. DG just converted a Mixamo avatar and a Tripo Ai Avatar to Opensim format. and dropped it 2 meters in front of me, in two clicks. One to select,. one to Proceed. Right-Click, Wear. Should be able to converty all 100 Mixamo Avatars in two clicks. You can use both characters and animations royalty free for personal, commercial, and non-profit projects from Mixamo.

C) MariaDb upgrade path is just a few clicks. Saved me 8 GB and is much faster. I weill be forking DreamGrid to only Maridb in the near future. You can remain on Mysql or convert, your option. New users will get MariaDb,.

D) Wordpress and WP4OS is working, just needs more testing. Joomla/JOpensim is now at V4. The upgrade path and Doumentation for Joomla is still under review.

E) I started releasing thousands of 3D objects into the Global Search engine. It will take several days to populate them all. Lots of duplicates. so I do not know exactly how many will show up. At the moment there are 14,996 unique, free objects that are one click away.

F) I hope to get Paypal working. I gave up on DTL. The Paypal and Opensim Region methods are long gone - about 15 year old code. This will be open source at Github.com/Dreamgrid If I succeed.

After Dark is getting darker

As the seasons change and Halloween draws nearer, subtle changes are happening all around After Dark. Come experience it.. if you dare.

No AI was used in the creation of this image - I don't think it serves any purpose to promote a region using an AI generated image. Not bashing AI in any way - just advocating for the idea that if you want people to come see your work in-world then that is what the image should show.

Super proud of these items I have designed end-to-end - with HEAVY AI and without having touched Blender before (and expert would scream at how meshy they are!), to lend a hand to the creators of the new Milking System (similar to Muffin' Milkers in SL, for those who know it!).
Do check out the Shasiya Milking System here: https://opensimworld.com/hop/88126

Hi lovely Starchild Shoppers!
I know some of you have been facing challenges accessing the store. It's been a bit up and down due to some blanket country-wide DDoS attacks (you've probably seen other services WW impacted as well).
Anyway, up now, but might be up and down until things stabilise. I have enabled an uptime notification, but if it's not up: it's not you, grid might be down!
Love and stellar blessings!
Aurora

Brand new region that I just am opening today. This is a freebie landscaping/garden sim with original creations. Everything is free to copy or buy for zero at the vendor signs.

„Athena“ – Wenn Stil keine Frage, sondern eine Ansage ist.

Drei Frauen, ein Blick, und plötzlich wird aus Säulenhalle Catwalk.

Gold glitzert, Stoffe flüstern, und irgendwo hört man Selbstvertrauen leise lachen.
Wer hier vorbeigeht, bleibt stehen – nicht aus Neugier, sondern aus Respekt.

She created avatars, clothing, buildings, animations, textures and entire regions.
She gave every last one of them away. No strings. No license fees. No DMCA.
Universities used her work. Hospitals used her work. You used her work.
Anthropic's Claude AI searched the entire public record.

In twenty years, nobody threw her a party.
This demands long overdue gratitude.

We shall honor her with an ENTIRE SEASON since nobody else cares to.

For many years, OSGrid has been held together by a community of people who show remarkable dedication. They build, create, donate, volunteer, and continue returning even after setbacks that would have driven most communities away. That level of loyalty is rare, and it speaks to the heart of what OSGrid has always represented: a place built by its users, for its users.

But with every major outage, that same loyal community pays the highest price. People lose assets, regions, inventories, and countless hours of work. They rebuild from scratch, not because they have to, but because they believe in the grid and the people behind it. Each time, they hope the stability will improve. Each time, they trust that the next chapter will be better than the last.

And yet, here we are again.

No one denies that OSGrid operates on a scale larger than most OpenSim environments. No one dismisses the complexity or the volunteer effort behind the scenes. But dedication is a two‑way street. When a community repeatedly invests their time, creativity, and emotional energy into a grid, it becomes increasingly difficult to ask them to simply “be patient” after losing everything again.

The truth is simple:
People are not frustrated because they don’t care — they are frustrated because they care deeply.

They want OSGrid to succeed.
They want stability worthy of the loyalty they’ve shown.
They want to feel that their work, their creations, and their memories are safe.

This isn’t about blame.
It’s about acknowledging the emotional and practical impact on the very people who keep OSGrid alive. Respecting the community means recognizing that repeated asset loss is more than a technical inconvenience — it’s a breaking point for many.

The community has proven their commitment time and time again.
It’s fair to hope that the grid’s infrastructure will one day show the same level of commitment back.
