I had some time to play with PBR thank you @FerdFrederix for suggesting I try it, and as you can see it makes the jewelry look so much better!! Nice! But that means I have my work cut out for me, I have lots of jewelry to update. I will have a PBR section at the store, keeping the old classic textures because not all grids support PBR, this is the first piece I will get it in the store today sometime, Celtic Knot Picture Locket.

With each step deeper into the cavern, the light from my lantern flickered against the damp walls, revealing eerie formations of stone that looked like frozen screams. Shadows danced as I moved, and the air thickened with an otherworldly presence. Just as I began to settle into the rhythmic sound of my footsteps echoing, the temperature plummeted. A sudden draft swept through, carrying with it a sense of dread.

My breath came out in visible puffs as I instinctively tightened my grip on the lantern. Then, through the thickening fog, a figure emerged. It was a ghost—a wrinkled, semi-transparent apparition with hollow eyes and an anguished expression that seemed carved from the very essence of fear. Its mouth opened wide in a silent scream, and the air around it shimmered with an unnatural energy.

Before I could react, a wave of exhaustion washed over me. I felt my energy being pulled from my body, like a magnet drawing metal. It was as if the ghost was siphoning the very life force from me, its expression a mix of longing and despair.

New Hypno Room, next level

It's finally completed, the Lavine Mansion!! Inspired by a wonderful friend and amazing builder/creator/designer Koshari Mahana, I decided to create my own mansion borrowing a few ideas from one of her builds. This mansion has all the charm of the Victorian Era, with downright "royal" beauty. It has a huge kitchen area, dining area, study or Livingroom and a sunroom or garden room washroom/bathroom on the first floor, the 2nd floor boasts 5 bedrooms and a large bathroom, the 3rd floor has 4 guest rooms or dorms for visitors and the 4th floor is all attic space. You really have to see this beauty to appreciate the time, effort and detail put into it. It's only drawback is it has a land impact of 812, but it's worth every bit of it. There is one small porch on the front for the 2nd floor and two much larger porches on the back of the house for the 1st floor and 2nd floor. Stop by and check it out, it is on the 1st level of the mall grounds just below the fantasy floating homes. It's full perm and free for any who would like it. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

It's not too late to participate in OSFest 2024 where free land is available for exhibits and stores. The festival runs from Oct 4-20, 2024 but we have a load test party on Sept 20, 2024 from 10am to 1 pm. Staff will be on hand as Rogue and Thalion rock the house. Join us!

Announcing the Mermaid's first open sim project! (Besides our very own beautiful home!) We are happy to be exhibitors at The OpenSim World's Fair beginning March 2025! Our exhibit is but a small piece of our region, just to give you all a peek at what we have to offer! There are absolutely incredible builds there now so we can't imagine the excitement when the fair opens! They have fabulous entertainment planned too! This is the biggest, brightest event I have every witnessed in open sim! (I think they have a few spots left!) Please mark your calendars! You don't want to miss it for sure! Until then, please do come to Mermaid's Cove and see what else is new there! Watch for events at the Blue Grotto too! See you soon!

Bad Event Idea Zero: The Best of Eating Hot Peppers, Drinking a Gallon of Whole Milk, Dunking Yourself in Ice Water, and Looking Beyond the Future of Humanity.

This is a bad idea simply because it has been done so many times before.

UPDATE GRID IS BACK ONLINE, PLEASE BE PATIENT AS WE CONTINUE TO FIX THINGS WE SEE THAT STILL NEED FIXING.

Grid is offline until its fixed. We are working as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I cant explain what happened, we are not sure. its to the point we will be working to piece the grid back together. this might take some days to fix

Visit the Sunvibes workshop to get this colorful effect using a "mandala flower" texture.

Use the "Particle Corner" option on the TP pad menu - if you have probs finding it - let me know :) The box includes a typer, and rezzable effects that you can attach to your avatar too. All full perm - edit as needed.

I've been working on this turn of the century "Store House" which is a Store and a House. Back in the 19th century and early 20th century, and in fact some places still today, are designed so that folks can run their business from the first floor of their home which was generally kept separate from the living quarters of the house. This house is designed with walnut floors, sponge plaster ceilings, acacia wood trim and lattice (semi Tudor) windows. It has three chimneys which service all three floors. There was little to no indoor plumbing back then and the type of heat we have today did not exist so they had either a fireplace or coal or wood stove on each floor to provide adequate heat. Some homes did have hand pumps for water in them but most water was carried in buckets from a well nearby and heated on the coal or wood stoves to use for cooking, cleaning, laundry and bathing. If you happen to be working on a western or midwestern town setting, this build would be perfect for you. A little piece of history always adds a authentic touch to any region. It is full perm, however, it is total mesh so removing parts is not advisable, however you may re texture it, just understand that even back then, when they found wallpaper (most folks only had wood or plaster) they used the same wallpaper in every room, so if you re texture the entire inside of the build will be that texture. The walls are two faced in that you can put one texture on the outside of the building and a different one on the inside and all of the baseboards are a different texture. You may copy it and or transfer it or share it to others. Just have fun with it...Blessings and much love, Lavia

I know I have mentioned it before, but I can't begin to explain the amount of work @valerieluv0 's amazing system has saved me. With around 400 rentals to manage, this is a god send. Please check her store and do donate if you can:

To all those who can script or who would know where to find a script I need help. I would like to find a script that can check that several items have been placed into a container like a box or bag. Is there anything like that about and where could I get a copy pls?

OH HECK! :D I decided to make a whole collection of 'em! :D

You may pick & choose whichever ones you would like to use :D

You can even pick 'em all :D LOL! :D Just depends on how much you use the stuff :D

Or how many "Brownies" you gonna make :D

This is what I have made today so far. I could not find a container for the Cannabis, so I made one myself. I made the texture with AI! :D This is also available at the landmark below along with the moonshine! :D

HAVE FUN & ENJOY! :D

I've just completed an exclusive interview with the incredibly talented digital artist and photographer, Hella Yver. In this conversation, we delve into the creative process behind her stunning works, her inspirations, and the unique perspectives that make her art so compelling. This interview offers a rare glimpse into the mind of an artist who continues to push the boundaries of digital photography. Image courtesy of Hella Yver nadej dae/hella yver copyright 2024

Something I've been working with for a while now was how to make a decent tree trunk and branches and finally, at last, I got one that doesn't look too bad. It's a North American Pignut Hickory, or what we always called a Hognut tree. They're beautiful and provide lots of shade especially when you're on a walk through the woods in the summer and they smell so good in the fall, and the hickory wood burning on a campfire or in a fireplace smells so good! Anyway, it's at the mall in the garden center waiting just for you to beautify your region. Pop in and take a look around and go a little "nuts"...pun intended. The tree is fully mesh and just 1 prim and it's full perm and free. Blessings and much love, Lavia

TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!
REMEMBER WOODSTOCK ON THE PLAYA @ PARADISE LOST!
SATURDAY, AUGUST 24, 2024;
6 pm grid time
grid.wolfterritories.org:8002/Paradise Lost


Break out your tie dye, crochet halter tops, faded bell bottoms, and prepare for a night of psychedelic fantasy! If you ever wished you could go to Woodstock, but missed the window, here's your chance! In this magical desert region, dig the groovy vibes; check in & drop out; make love, not war. Most of all, leave it on the Playa!

DJ Xenon Darrow will guide you on this epic journey of music through the sounds of Woodstock and the epic rock of the late 60s and early 70s.

The Playa would be the beautiful fantasy love child of Woodstock, Burning Man and Tomorrowland with some Electric Forest Festival thrown in! Expansive, larger than life, psychedelic!

#FLOWERPOWER #GROOVYTUNES #LEAVEITONTHEPLAYA

Before me there was naught created, save
eternal things, and I eternal last;
all hope abandon, ye that enter here!

...And he to me, like one aware, replied:
“All fearfulness must here be left behind;
all forms of cowardice must here be dead.
We ’ve reached the place where, as I said to thee,
thou ’lt see the sad folk who have lost the Good
which is the object of the intellect.”
Then, after he had placed his hand in mine
with cheerful face, whence I was comforted,
he led me in among the hidden things.

-- Dante Alighieri

Hiya All! :)

Someone was asking me about getting Moonshine for the VivoSim (Satyr, Quintonia) Farming System.

I couldn't find it anywhere except this one place but there was nowhere to get a copy of it, so I decided to make it myself! :)
It was easier than I thought! :)

FYI: You CAN get drunk from this, so be careful to not drink too much if you don't want to get drunk! :0
Also, if you want to get drunk, you will need to use the HUD that I have modified and included in this box.

If you would like a copy of this complete system, modified to make Moonshine, then come on over to my place and pic up your box which includes everything, plus notecards on how to do some stuff, too.

Here is what is included in the box along with the 3 notecards with instructions on how to use the system:

SF Drinks maker (Bar) - MODIFIED
SF Microbrewery - MODIFIED
SatyrFarm Distillery
SF Yeast Container - NEWEST VERSION (OLD ONES WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS NEW SYSTEM)
VivoSim-HUD-V6.08 Beta - MODIFIED
SF Barrel Store - RESET THIS ONCE YOU TAKE IT OUT OF YOUR INVENTORY
SF Slop Barrel - MADE EXCLUSIVELY FOR ALL INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE EACH PRODUCT.
SF Slop Barrel 1 - MADE ECLUSIVELY FOR ALL FINISHED PRODUCTS TO BE ADDED TO.
Satyr Farm Well - A REALLY COOL WELL THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME FULL PERM! :)

3 EXPLANATORY NOTECARDS

This is something new that I have been getting into, must be tried & tested. I've tested this repeatedly. If you have problems with it do not hesitate to let me know & I will make any alterations needed.

RE: THE VIVO SIM HUD WILL GIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE SAYING "Sorry, you need a VivoSim linked to your avatar to use the messaging system". THIS WILL CHANGE AFTER YOU PUT THE NEW HUD ON. JUST GIVE IT SEVERAL SECONDS TO TALK TO THE SERVER! It will also repeat this: "VivoSim-HUD-V6.08 Beta: " JUST TAKE THE HUD OFF ONCE YOU ARE DONE USING IT.

I sent this to two other grids after finally finishing tweaking it. It worked on each of those grids. I will test it out on other grids if need be. But it seemed to work on those two grids that I tested this system out on.

I have this both at the landing point as well as in the barn where I make it. If you want to go into the barn, when you get to the landing point, just click again on the landmark and it will take you right there!

ENJOY & HAVE FUN! ;)

Aretuza on the planet Amasango is designed to be fandom RP for fans of "The Witcher" and beyond. Set in an alternate dimension or universe it follows the adventures of Garalt, Yennifer, Tissaia and others as they adjust to their new surroundings after they "die" in their original universe. This has the potential to be some really great and fun RP for serious role players who don't need a lot of "props" and are good at descriptions and textual RP as well as visual RP. Just contact me if you're interested.

IN THE BEGINNING . . .

I am going to be using items from around open sim for the VivoSim system which used to be Satyr Farms, then Quintonia Farm System. You can still intertwine the Satyr & Quintonia with VivoSim System as they are founded from the original Satyr. I am going to be making add On's for this system to enhance it. I will be giving the products that I make away for free.

Buzzy encourages us to modify the items to enhance it. My goal is to have the biggest farm in Open Sim.

This is JUST the beginning!

I do hope that you will come to my region to visit & give some constructive criticism about what I can do to enhance my ever growing farm. There will be suggestion boxes throughout my region.

Thank You for reading this! ;)
