Mein geliebtes Weib, meine Siwas
Ich will versuchen dir nur zu versprechen was ich auch halten kann.
Ich kann dir die Welt nicht zu Füssen legen, sie gehört mir nicht.
Ich werde dir keine Sterne mehr vom Himmel holen denn das habe ich schon und du hast deinen Stern.
Ich habe damals gesagt dieser Stern soll dich beschützen und über unsere Liebe wachen. Das hat er getan und uns nach unserer Trennung wieder zusammengeführt.
Vielleicht merkt man erst bei einer Trennung was man wirklich verloren hat.
Wir sind wieder zusammen und nun will ich dich endgültig als meine Frau und werde alles tun dass wir zusammen glücklich sind und unsere Liebe für immer bleibt.
Siwas, du warst immer, du bist und du bleibst für immer mein Baby,

Happy New Year to all Opensim grid owners and users alike. I just want to add my thoughts as a few others have on the past year. We have all seen growth or maybe a decline in our grids and even so far as to have our grids banned by other grid owners. Isn't it bad enough real life has tossed us a pandemic to deal with. Losing Family & Friends we have cherished for years to a sickness we can't get control of. We all come online to escape real life even if just for a few hours, to forget our troubles and just have that bit of time to relax, have fun ... and maybe meet a new friend or two.

I recently had one of my users come to me and say why am I banned from such and such grid? My answer of course is "I have no idea no one has contacted me about any issues." I can tell you this ....if I have an issue with a user visiting my grid I am going to ban the offending user/users not the grid they came from. Banning the whole grid for the unfortunate actions of 1 or 2 users in my opinion is childish and very unfair to all the good users from that grid that have the same lets have fun and meet new people and share what each of us have to offer mind set. After all isn't Opensim supposed to be about offering a place to enjoy the free time you wish to spend online when you access a grid?

I and my partner have and will always try to offer a peaceful and enjoyable experience for users of our grid. If you have had an issue with one of our users please don't ban the grid ban the offending user/users and please feel free to contact me regarding any user from the grid. I am one of those No Tolerance for crap people that will not stand for a user tarnishing our grid by doing something they shouldn't. They want to do that crap it's time for them to move on find someplace else where it's acceptable or get their own grid. We have already banned and deleted one user for unacceptable activity and I am not afraid to do it again if needed.

I like to think and I'm sure I have shown to many visitors I am a very reasonable person to deal with. And I try to act on issues ASAP so the grid is enjoyable for users and visitors alike. See something you don't agree with message me and lets talk. Have a user issue message me and let me know so we can get any issues resolved quickly so we can get back to enjoying our grids and members.


Lets make 2022 a year of change for each of us in Opensim. Lets enjoy our online time helping each other, providing fun places and content for members and visitors to our grids, and working together to resolve any issues that arise in an adult manner.

LETS TALK !!!!!

**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.

FAIRE SA PROPRE RÉGION AUTONOME POUR SE BALADER EN HYPERGRID
(avec un minimum de manipulations !!! )

1 - Il faut télécharger opensim-0.9.3.0.zip sur http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Main_Page

2 - opensim 0.9.3.0 demande .NET version 8 ! à télécharger ici :
https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.N...

3 - Pour être en mode "Grille" simple (Standalone sans ROBUST) avec HyperGrid, dans le fichier OpenSim.ini tout à la fin vers la ligne 1356 il faut avoir ça :
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/Standalone.ini"
Include-Architecture = "config-include/StandaloneHypergrid.ini"
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/Grid.ini"
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/GridHypergrid.ini"
Commenter la ligne 1356 et décommenter la suivante (commenter = mettre le point-virgule ';' au début de la ligne, décommenter = l'enlever)

4 - Dans bin/config-include il faut renommer GridCommon.ini.example en GridCommon.ini

5 - Toujours dans bin/config-include dans StandaloneCommon.ini décommenter la ligne 50 pour avoir :
GatekeeperURI = "${Const|BaseURL}:${Const|PublicPort}"
*

(Ce qui fait 3 changements dans les lignes des .ini !)

Enfin en étant dans le dossier opensim/bin, lancer le serveur OpenSim.exe !
Bien valider l'alertes du pare feu pour opensim.exe, sinon il faudra aller le faire manuellement dans les paramètres.
Des lignes vont défiler puis normalement ça doit poser des questions (nom de la grille, de la région, du user ...)

Pour la connexion :
- Dans le NAT de la box il faut ouvrir les ports 9000 et 9001 tcp et udp (dans le doute on ouvre tcp ET udp)
- Ajouter localhost:9000 dans la config opensim de Firestorm !

BINGO ! on peut se connecter avec le user défini plus haut et partir dans l'HyperGrid !!
Et s'envoyer des objets et même en faire des sauvegardes (IAR) aussi.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cette configuration minimal ne permettra surement pas d'avoir des visites ou bien de pouvoir revenir après une téléportation en HG mais comme le but est d'avoir une base pour se promener dans l'HG ça ne devrait pas être trop génant.

Mais voici les compléments de config à faire si on veut plus s'approcher d'une grille "normale", aux points notés plus haut par un *

*OPTIONS
- Pour permettre des visites facielement sons devoir indiquer le nom de la région il faut dans StandaloneCommon.ini ligne 114 :
Region_Nom_de_Votre_Region = "DefaultRegion, DefaultHGRegion, FallbackRegion"
(en remplaçant les éventuels espaces dans le nom par des 'soulignés' _
Dans le dossier opensim/bin/regions il faut modifier la ligne ExternalHostName = SYSTEMIP par votre IP externe ( http://whatismyip.com ) ou un domaine ou sous domaine pointant dessus.

- Si vous ne voulez pas garder le nom de la grille par défaut ( "the lost continent of hippo" ) modifier les lignes 229 et 232 dans StandaloneCommon.ini

- Après pour avoir les groupes et les messages ... il y a d'autres modifs à faire dans opensim.ini
Infos ici : https://sheikah.org/install-opensim-0-9-3-0-in-hypergrid-s... (made by @Ludo_Davis !)
Chercher "Edit OpenSim.ini"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dépannage:
- Bien vérifier dans les Paramètres réseau et Internet de Windows que la carte réseau est en profil de Réseau privé !
- Des infos pour ouvrir les ports selon votre Box Internet : https://support.safebrands.com/ouvrir-le-port-8443-sur-sa-...
- Si vous avez cette erreur lors d'un TP HG :
Teleport falled Cant teleport to a regjon on same map position. Try going to another reyon first. then retry trom there
Dans le dossier OpenSim/bin/Regions editez votre fichier Regions.ini ligne 3 Location = 1000,1000 et changez légerement ces coordonnées, comme 1010,1010 et relancez OpenSim.

FeedBack:
Comme dans ce domaine je suis persuadée que ça ne va pas réagir partout pareil, merci de me donner vos retours...

As some of you might have seen, the region hosting the Shoppe has divided into four themed ones, and so have we!

- Starchild Shoppe: Landscaping: hop://playground.darkheartsos.com:8002/Boutiques%20SE/109/...
While the previous location is still available, it will be decomissioned soon!

GET A TEXT MESSAGE ON YOUR CELL PHONE WHEN A REGION GOES DOWN.
How to get text messages, emails, pushover, telegram, and jabber alerts if a region goes down on your grid. Well it's easy. Download servermonitor from https://github.com/phpservermon/phpservermon Next unzip it and upload it to your linux box. I put the files in /var/www/html/servermonitor.
Next get on your web browser and go to websiteaddress.com/servermonitor/install.php Fill in the questions. Set up a web database of your choosing. Create a user and a password. I did this: create database servers; create user 'someone'@'localhost' identified by 'password'; grant all on servers.* to 'someone'@'localhost'; flush priveleges;
Once that is set up, it's a breeze. Use the web interface to add servers to your list. For regions just enter a service and the port number the region is on. example service, custom port, 8007 Then select how you want to be notified if the region goes down. e.g. email or sms text message, etc. Finally using crontab -e enter * * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/servermonitor/cron/status.cron.php You are done. Now if one of your regions goes offline you will know about it in 60 seconds. Also you can add websites to the list to be monitored, mail servers, any kind of server really. It has a looooong list of server types that can be added. (very handy). Additionally you can click on a region and see it's uptime plotted hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly as well as LATENCY. We all know how important latency is for showing lag. :) Enjoy!
Note: LINK FIXED
Note: When they go offline the console shows them as red. Also you get a text message, email, etc.

Because sharing is caring? 8 people... so up to 4 simultaneous couples at the same time with more than 1000 animations all up! Because it is all flat...you could even make the rug 100% transparent and just place it on a beach! Possibilities are endless - the challenge might be to fill all the sitters!

I'm looking for the "Stuff" boxes. They contain some of the first items imported to OS. These items are so old that they are once again new. Many of these high quality items are not in shops now. I'll be offering a curated selection of these items at the Black Market shop. Stop by now for items from the Stuff boxes with retro stuff.

I knew of 3 locations with a collection of the boxes. Two are now closed, and I forget the name of the other one. I'm looking for the names of places that have them and/or copies of any boxes you have,

@FerdFrederix designed Dream Grid Software with one goal in mind: to revolutionize the way we load grids. Its lightning-fast performance is made possible through a combination of innovative technologies and optimizations, ensuring that your grids load at blazing speeds.

Thank you, Ferd, your many hours invested are very much appreciated!! You are a shining testament to brilliance in coding. Nice work!

Good morning everyone

I need your input on something.

I am trying to decide whether to promote and put osw beacons on Friends region and Friends II. I have extremely mixed feelings on this subject, so I am requesting your input to help me make a decision.

As far as your individual regions, each of you can decide whether you want beacons or not.

The benefits:

We show friends-grid to a wider group of people…..possibly finding a new resident or two.

People can enjoy what we have built.


The cons:

Sometimes guests wander onto private areas instead of using tp to public places

Sometimes drama goes with recognition and popularity

Hi everyone!

Heads up 1: We are changing our instant message system, and your messages will now be integrated with it.

In case there are any unread messages of the old instant-chat system, you can find them in this page: https://opensimworld.com/cmtest/


Heads Up 2: The friends system is changing, from followers to friends. People who follow each other will now become friends, otherwise you have to accept their friend requests. Check your friends requests here: https://opensimworld.com/friends

Thank you!

Reyn and I are excited to bring to you Rigged avatar store! We will be designing bento rigged mesh avatars a bit different than what you might be familiar with. These avatars are designed to work with the Y engine scripts. Clothing is included that can be worn simply by typing into local chat! No more searching through inventory for that favorite blouse! You simply add the textures to the avatar contents and you are set! We have included outfits to get you started! The alphas apply the same fashion just by typing into chat and it applies to the body!
We have a few just for fun and RP and a few that can be worn every day. I can create alphas to work with most clothes. The skin can be changed to your skin if you have the textures. If you know Photoshop or Gimp you can create your very own textures unique to just "you".

A huge thank you to Reyn Softly for creating our store, and a special hug and big thanks to our friend Fred Beckhusen who helped to make all this possible, thank you!
I will be creating new clothes for these avatars as time allows~

So many moralists ... OK too many. I don't understand it, please help me. You don't do everything yourself. You copy right and left. From people who give you everything free, copy mod transe. You do the same things on your land/sim. You block it for others. No mod no trans ...... DID YOU ASK YOURSELF AT WHICH RIGHT? ACROSS FROM YOUR PEOPLE? Do you understand the message Yes? Welcome to Opensim! :-)
Go to Google, learn what is Opensim Free spirit!

So viele Moralisten... OK zu viele. Ich verstehe es nicht, hilf mir bitte. Du machst nicht alles selner. Du kopierst rechts und links. Bei Menschen die Dir alles frei geben, copy mod transe. Die selben Sachen stellst Du an sin Land. Du sperrst es für andere. No mod no trans...... HAST DU DICH IRGEND WANN GEFRAGT: MIT WELCHEM RECHT? GEGENÜBER DEINEN MITMENSCHEN? Verstehst Du die Botschaft? Ja? Willkommen in Opensim! :-)
Gehe zu Google, lerne was Opensim Freigeist ist!

We all love to fly, don't we?
So I decided to make a ridable version of my dragon, as rezzer, so all your visitors can get their own.
Its temp, no worry of littering your place.
Get yours in my shop!

Siamo sempre alle solite ogni tanto qualcuno izzato da qualche venditore che non puo più prendere i miei avatar e metterli in vendita nel suo negozio, critica insulta e offende, dicono che faccio un buon lavoro, E che diamine! lo faccio davvero! Poi regalo il mio tempo e la mia testa alle persone dell opensim. Statevene a casa vostra, non venite qui a criticare! Stupide persone ignoranti che non sanno leggere e dicono che gli avatar non sono in vendita quando è scritto chiaro e tondo come fare per averne uneuno, o che ti dicono che hai un traffico fasullo... ma cosa cavolo parlate a fare vorrei sapere Se il mio lavoro è buono e se i miei avatar sono miei non copiati dovreste soltanto ringraziarmi che li regalo!

The hypergrid never ceases to amaze me. I went shopping over at Nutella tonight on a shopping avie. My main avie has over 120k items in my inventory, so I use other avies to shop. It has become more and more common that when I jump to other grids, all my mesh gets ripped off. I am then a lumpy nekkid system avie with a hairy face. It's not fun for anyone, trust me. To avoid this, I will strip down to a system avie, then use a full body alpha and be invisible. This prevents the embarrassment, potential maturity rating violations, excessive shopping lag, and having to tp home, log, clear cache, log back in, sometimes 2x to get things to act right again. It's efficient and effective.

I haven't filled out the profile of this shopping avie because....well...it's a SHOPPING AVIE. I guess I could put "I'm just here to shop" on the profile. But honestly...she is 1/10k avies running around without anything in their profile.

Apparently, a resident there took exception with me and sent me some rather rude messages. I didn't see them because I was engrossed in shopping and had the chat window closed. I saw them when I returned to my home grid. I then reached out to her and explained 1) why I was invisible, and 2) why there was nothing in my profile. She promptly told me she was reporting me to the grid owner for "not acting right."

I popped back over there and spoke to her in genchat, once again explaining myself. I told her to be well and left. I am interested to see if that avie or even this one gets banned because a resident didn't like that I was invisible and shopping. It's always an adventure.
