🌹 The Treasured Garden Hunt 🌹
A celebration in honor of beloved mothers.

** Update** I just placed a new rose today in honor of all the Mothers everywhere I love you 💞 I still see a few roses yet to be found, best wishes!


In every corner of the grid, roses have been hidden — each one holding a never-before-seen gift created especially for this event. This hunt honors the spirit of all mothers, who deserve to be cherished and celebrated.

Explore and discover the treasures placed lovingly throughout the grid
Each rose offers a unique surprise, never before released in OpenSim
Ongoing through Mother’s Day week, with new gifts replenished as roses are found

Join us in celebrating the beauty, love, and strength of mothers everywhere.
Because every mother is a treasure — and in the Treasured Garden, they are honored with joy.

🌹 Please note: Once a rose is taken, that gift is gone — it will be replaced with a new, unique treasure. Each gift is limited, not copied, and only a few of each will be given, making every find truly special.

Some may have noticed that Uzuri (formerly Uzuri Virtual) is back. We got in a bit of
a mess with the code and such last year, but hopefully it is done now. New Linux server and new names - Uzuri Prime and Uzuri Common. We're back 24/7 seven days a week.

Why "Uzuri"? you may ask. Well, the word "Uzuri" means niceness, goodness or beauty in Swahili. No, I'm not a Swahili speaker but I thought is described what I want from opensim, so there it is.
Please note, though, that if it doesn't look the same as before, that's becaue I had to use older oar files to load the sims in because of corruption of the other ones. Some stuff is missing and some stuff that was removed is back. Telle est la vie!

We'll get by.

I have removed the Athena stores from Uzuri Prime because the stuff in them was old and were not enhancing the sim in any way - you can find that stuff everywhere.

Uzuri Common is Open Source/ Authorised only. It is "old school", mainly built from scratch in the viewer. It has a bit of Ruth/Roth 2 stuff and lots of Selea Core.

*Takes a deep breath* It's good to be back!

Hello everyone,
A few days ago, I announced the creation of a social network dedicated to OpenSimulator. Of course, it's not perfect yet, and I invite you to try it out.
Feature requests were pouring in from everywhere, and I was completely lost.

So I created a dedicated group directly on this network to respond to them and avoid duplication.

So, why join this social network, you might ask?
On this network, there are no intrusive algorithms, no web giants: just a free, ethical, and open source platform, a network created by OpenSimulator enthusiasts for OpenSimulator enthusiasts.

Share, explore... at your own pace, in an independent space that respects your privacy.

Redlight City Police Force have recently enrolled Kirsty Peters, a computer IT specialist, to bolster capabilities of the Serious Crime Squad (SCS) in tracking and apprehending villains who venture into the city to commit serious crimes. As an IT specialist officer, Kirsty brings a unique combination of skills to the table, with her degrees in criminal law, computer technology, and computer science making her an invaluable asset to the team.

At just 28 years old, Kirsty has already demonstrated exceptional expertise her field, and her ability to navigate the complex systems at her disposal are impressive. With access to the Police National Computer (PNC), Kirsty can quickly retrieve up-date information on suspects, vehicles, and crimes, allowing her to provide real-time intelligence to the SCS Officers on the ground.

The city-wide CCTV system is also a powerful tool in Kirsty's arsenal, enabling her to monitor and track suspects as they move through Redlight City. Her ability to rapidly disseminate information to the SCS Officers via their advanced communication systems means that they can respond swiftly and effectively to emerging situations, increasing the chances of successful apprehensions.

Kirsty's role is not limited to simply providing technical support; she is an integral part of the SCS's operational strategy. Her analytical mind and knowledge of computer systems allow her to identify patterns and connections that might otherwise go unnoticed, making her a valuable asset in the fight against crime in Redlight City.

As the SCS continues to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of crime in Redlight City, Kirsty's skills and expertise will undoubtedly play a critical role in their success. Her ability to harness the power of technology to aid in the capture of villains will undoubtedly make a significant impact on the safety and security of the city, and her colleagues in the SCS undoubtedly rely on her expertise to help keep them and the streets of Redlight City safe.

A Special Addition to Spirit of Dreams

I’ve added a new memorial at Spirit of Dreams to honor my mother, who recently passed. She was a woman of great faith, deep love, and beautiful creativity—and I wanted a space where her memory could live on within the peaceful forest and flowing waters of this sacred sim.

One of the most magical touches: Fred helped bring the memorial to life with a breathtaking moment—a spirit horse leaping gracefully through the DreamCatcher. It’s a powerful, symbolic gesture that reflects transition, strength, and the journey onward. A blessing of True Love.

If you visit Spirit of Dreams, you’re welcome to pause at her stone, rest by the fire, or simply stand beneath the trees and reflect. She would’ve loved the beauty and serenity here… and I feel her presence in every breeze. I love you Fred, thank you for your "genuine" caring. "True love is found in the everyday acts of kindness, the steady presence, the knowing glance. You are now blessed with true love."

Looking for a New Owner for Coopersville – A 64-Sim-Sized Community in Kitely

Greetings!

I'm looking for a new owner for Coopersville in Kitely — an Edwardian-themed community that spans a 64-sim-sized region. I’m shifting my focus toward updating and adding to my Four Winds store. There are only so many things I can give proper attention to. Coopersville deserves someone who can be a more active community owner and leader.

I plan to give it until the end of April to find someone to take over ownership. The new owner would take over on April 30th, 2025 including the monthly payment.

The monthly cost of $89.95 USD would be grandfathered in. The 64-sim-sized region has 150,000 prims and can support up to 80 avatars. It is not currently an "always-on" region, but that option is available should the new owner choose to upgrade.

All of the content that is currently on the region would remain there and would remain the property of the original owners. I won't delete anything but I would retain ownership of the buildings and landscaping because it's too difficult to change ownership with permissions and all. The new owner could continue using them indefinitely until or if they wish to replace them. I will give the new owner copies of all of the buildings that I created that are displayed in Coopersville with the exception of the content on the center Four Winds area which will be deleted.

On the north side of the region are 14 256x256 islands, all but 3 currently have renters. These islands rent for $5.00 USD per month or $1000 KC. I hope the new owner would continue offering island rentals for the sake of the current residents, but that’s completely up to them.

There are also 13 free homes around the perimeter of the main continent (in the southwest area of the region). All but one are currently occupied, and those homes are presently free for the residents — again, the new owner can decide how they want to handle that.

There is a large downtown area on the main continent. It has 19 shops that are currently free to the merchants occupying them. A 20th shop is by the ocean. The new owner can decide if they want to continue this.

Coopersville, although Edwardian themed, is not currently a roleplay region. The new owner could easily change it to roleplay. There are areas that are perfect for events too.

Please see the Coopersville website for more information: https://coopersville.mystrikingly.com. The rentals and free homes listed there are not currently up to date, but I will be updating them soon. I’ve also added a very large amusement park, along with horse trails and wooded areas, which are not yet reflected on the site. You can read more about them and Coopersville here: https://www.kitely.com/virtual-world/Koshari-Mahana/Cooper...

If you or someone you know might be interested in continuing the vision of Coopersville, please contact me by email at JenniSiri999@gmail.com.

If I cannot find a person to take ownership of Coopersville by April 30th it will be deleted. I truly hope that I can find a new owner.

Hi everyone! Just saw this on the OSG Discord pages!! Hopefully Mermaid's Cove will survive the big wipeout and be there when OSG is back up! As soon as we get the ok, we will be in, checking the region and planning a big return to open sim event at the Blue Grotto! Stay tuned!!
🎉 Final Testing Phase Underway!
We're in the home stretch before OSgrid's grand reopening! 🚀
Get ready — it's almost time to reconnect, explore, and build like never before.
Stay tuned... the grid will be back online very soon!
🔧 Final tests in progress
📡 Stability checks ongoing

The first 30 visitors have already been here and we have only received positive feedback about the route. Thanks to ALL of you who gave us such positive feedback.
A few more tips on using the track.
Please only buy or copy the vehicles provided and then rezz them. The cars should be refueled at the gas station to the left of the vehicles before starting the ride. However, there are 2 other filling stations on the route, one at the ADAZ Area and another on the open road.
The Mercedes Cabrio now has a 2nd seat for a passenger.
