SVPortal v2.0 Beta 1 is now available.

This release brings the new setup registry to replace most of the configuration in config.php (some items have to stay there - like database connection details: you cant get the database connection details from the database until you know how to connect to the database!)

Existing users will need to upgrade their grid settings, and a script is provided to do this - but please read the note on the download at https://www.glenysbieler.com/svportal/.

Please visit https://www.glenysbieler.com/svportal/ for more information, and download.

NOTE: SVPortal is a totally separate standalone application running in PHP. It is not a plugin to WordPress or any other CMS it is a full application by itself.

Jimmy Olsen's incredible EEP system is now in Wolf Territories Grid back end, you can set it on your land to tie up to an RL place including the weather. (needs WolfStorm or WolfBrowser)

🎧 DEEP GROOVE SESSIONS 🎧
with DJ Chanel Hurricane

Deep beats, smooth grooves and good vibes!
Join us for a musical journey through deep, soulful sounds and unforgettable rhythms.

📅Saturday, October 3th
🕐 1–3 PM Grid Time
🔊 Listen live: grid.arkhamgrid.org:8002:Arkham Grid Community
http://aegura.harriman4.com:8036/djhurricane.mp3
🌀 Feel the rhythm.
📍 Arkham Grid Community Deep grooves. Heavy
bass. Pure underground vibes.

We got rid of region borders. Once the rolling restart completes you will never hit a region border on Wolf Territories Grid, you wil happily sail between regions, if you come to the extremes of the grid you will "wrap around" just like a globe. In fact our new WolfViewer / WolfStorm map view release coming out today will start off with a globe as we are no longer constrained by region borders. (still works on other grids and other viewer users can still experience no region borders but it won't be as smooth as with WolfViewer), plus we are releasing automatic upgrades, proper linux packages (deb etc) for all linux.

Save the date! This Friday and Saturday prepare to be dazzled in our newly updated underwater venue Neptune's Undersea Garden! Clan will sing live of course, and if you have never met a MerBird, say hello to Sparrow :)

i'm taking a break from creating kitchen things and temporarily am researching a Materia Medica for use in Tribulations. this research will be the basis of creating a digital version for use in the apothecary within Thornridge, mortal village of Tribulations.

I still have the cookware to finish, scrap can, garbage cab, outdoor scrap can and garbage to do -- too much scripting atm. lol

The pond will have options of growing or harboring various additions that will aid, harm or be neutral effects on the players.
