Dorena’s World, a dream come true.
A digital realm, so full of life,
With shared ideas, escaping strife.

From the first pixel to today’s delight,
You’ve built a world that shines so bright.
Friendship, dreams, and fantasy,
All united in harmony.

Let’s celebrate, day by day,
For all the wonders that pave the way.
Fifteen years of inspiration,
A reason for joyful celebration!
Further information on the upcoming events will follow.

Free rentals now available on Suburbs region as well as two larger rentals on Princess Islands.

Please note the information boards at the landing area for what to expect and please check the TOS on the rentals themselves.

Additional rentals are planned for Princess and Autumn regions.

All homes are provided on an "as is" basis and the facility may be withdrawn if abused.

Hi, everyone. I am now here, too. Everyone said I should (have to) come to OSW and also put my Big City Life here to find it. Ok, now I am here although I don't need drama and avoided to have much contact. My Facebook account is enough usually for my friends.
But if many people always ask for the hop address then it would be easier just to have it on OSW. Although my Big City Life is not suitable for many people at once, because it is so big (7x7) and full with stuff and active scripts, it is worth to visit. So if you come as couple then it is ok. But don't come at once with a bus of 20 people. Then it is hard to walk straight there. lol If you have gamer computer and fast internet it might be no problem. But for normal users with normal computers it would be horrible to be on my Big City Life with 20 people. So you are warned.
Just wanted to introduce myself here and say hello.
And here is my Home in opensim:

Thank you @FerdFrederix 💗

A heartfelt thank you to Ferd Frederix for opening my eyes to the creative possibilities of Firestorm Viewer. Your insights into Field of View (FOV) lighting effects have truly transformed my virtual photography and builds.

With Ferd’s guidance, I explored how to use light leaks and colorful textures in Firestorm’s FOV editor. Here’s how you can do it too:

Create or Find Textures: Use Photoshop or download light leak textures. Save them as PNG or TGA.

Upload to Firestorm: Import textures into your inventory.

Apply in the FOV Editor: Open the FOV settings, drag your texture into the designated slot, and adjust opacity, rotation, and position.
Experiment: Play with blend modes and colors for seamless integration.

Sync with WindLight: Combine with environment settings for cohesive, cinematic effects.

Ferd, your tutorials have been a guiding light, helping me turn creative visions into reality. Thank you for sharing your brilliance with the virtual community—you’ve made our worlds magic!

If you have been keeping up with the weather in the US, you know that about half of the US is dealing with blizzards, sub freezing temperatures severe enough to challenge infrastructures, and peripheral states are dealing with flooding and electrical infrastructure challenges. Two of our presenters had to bow out due to last minute inclement weather, and my own electricity is VERY sketchy. We have experienced power surges in my city for over 24 hrs, with uncertain relief. Sadly, I live in a state that has puffed out their chest about being off the federal grid, and in the last 10 years, we have paid dearly for that.

We are committed to this. We will reschedule sometime after the Hypergrid World's Fair, where WolfTEC will be have a presence! We hope to see you all there!

Join us at the Piazza at 3 pm grid time, for a couple of hours of fun and music while Rockin' Robert spins the tunes for us via his radio station Wax Radio.
The Piazza, where good friends and great music always come together.

Are you using a 4K monitor ? Are you looking to upgrade ?

I publish here some benchmark in the hope it might help those who are looking to up part their performances using Firestorm. I was myself looking to find those information before i upgraded.

This will allow you to see what performance you could get with a similar hardware. I chose Intel, but AMD is also a very good choice, so for comparison it would need to be an AMD with similar performance to get similar result, the same for the video card.

Please note, these benchmark are with Firestorm with everything enabled Ultra Detail and Distance view set to 864. With a 4k Monitor (3840x2160)

I've just added some trial rentals to Suburbs which replaces the "by invitation only" housing.

Please note that this is on a "trial" basis and will be removed if the facility is abused.

Note the information boards at the landing area for what to expect and please check the TOS on the rentals themselves.

If this works well - I plan to add more rentals to Princess, Princess Islands, and Autumn regions.

This is a replica of a RL rocker I have, rusted horseshoe rocker. I created it trying to make the shoes rusted looking so they are missing a few "faces" on the mesh, to try to resemble rusted out, I am still working to make it better but this is at the dump, it is a fun addition to western themed sims.

Compte rendu de la réunion du jeudi 9 décembre : la 1ère réunion francos de 2025.

12 personnes ((plus que d'habitude avec des personnes venant de SL) se sont réunies dans une bonne ambiance. Le sujet principal évoqué fut celui de la voice, que l'on peut déjà lire dans le wiki de Acryline. Lien vers le wiki : https://cogito.no-ip.info/cogito/OSWiki/index.php/R%C3%A9u...

Le nouveau type de voice est pour le moment testé sur SL, pourra fonctionner sur OpenSim et ne sera pas une solution externe. Mais il sera payant.

Vlad nous informe de la mise en place d'une petite grille "Ecrin" par une personne bien connue, Erwan (login URI 185.13.36.19:8002:ECRIN). Minord donne rendez-vous samedi 11 janvier pour l'inauguration du mémorial.
