Expo Center on Big City Life
My little showcase in Opensim on Big City Life sim for what you can do with AI software. In this video you see first AI generated video with Runway Gen 2 by me. Those are old right now. But you can see then the new work of Nicolas Neubert made with Runway Gen 3 alpha. I made some background film music with AIVA AI to round it up matching for the whole video. The Music of the Hoarfrost video is origin soundtrack of Ninja Tracks. This promo shows how fast and easy you can see the AI video installations in Expo Center just by walking in the square, if you have your mediaplayer in Firestorm on auto play. You walk in the square on ground and the video is showing directly. In Expo Center are right now 3 videos of Nicolas Neubert on tape you can choose with blue menu by clicking on the tape.
I try to update the newest development and show now also an example of Veo 2 (text to video) of Deepmind, which is astonishing what you can do already. The AI is developing rapidly and exponential. You can say already that new AI for video especially is changing every month. For all the AI software you can get and use I recommend to go in my AI research Center. You get all information about different AI and purposes with links to the websites there.
In the Expo Center you find also a lot of other works. Artists in opensim show their AI generated pictures like Pat Babii and Sergio Rodriguez but there is also analog art made in rl like oil painting of ieko and acryl painting of Essensual McMahon. If you are fan of classic artists like Caspar David Friedrich or Vincent van Gogh you will find it there, too.
You can reach directly the expo center with blue bus and train at Zoo railway station. From there just follow the hostesses that walk the path from railway station to expo center and you can even talk with them, while you both walk the path. Or drive by yourself with car and follow the signs to Zoo. Then you will come automatically to Zoo, open air pool and Expo center.

This is what I've dumped at Gracie and Dexter's so far (I don't have rez rights at Dingleberry Dump yet):

Eight boxes with prim shelves in four sizes. I've made one of them for a shop a few years ago, and it ended in an excess with 32 shelves.

The "No Stairway To Heaven" sign from Wayne's World.

The "Obey" poster by Equestria-Election.

I'm not sure if the Starlight Remix skins and the Ruth2 v4 BoM nail polishes are crappy enough, though.

An UFO crashed and military is securing the region around the crash. But then suddenly another UFO appears over little New Jersey to rescue their buddies. lol Critical situation now with all the military. But Dr Who speaks to the aliens. Hopefully the situation can be defused ...

It is with regret and dismay at the activities of an individual that we announce that due to our stance on community behaviour we have now blocked access to another grid. We do not use virtual in order to defend ourselves against lies that others concoct for their own reasons, nor do we allow access to our regions to people who disrespect or attack individuals who reside in or use our grid. We fully support freedom of speech and an individuals right to an opinion but we do not tolerate antagonistic behaviour designed to provoke our members or users into reacting or explaining or otherwise engaging to deny suggested allegations created in a warped mind. The spirit and community of Open Sim was the reason we joined and created a world to share as many others do but sadly that community is tainted by divisive provocations and trolling for argument and discord. We remain open to the majority and will always welcome those who know how to behave like adults and respect others. We are Not Sorry for this decision.

Was eine abgedrehte Eröffnungsparty des Stardust Club im Xenolandia Grid.

Selten soviel Spaß gehabt.
Nach einer Stunde habe ich meine schöne Playlist in die Tonne gekloppt
und die Wünsche der Verrückten im Publikum aufgelegt.
Bekommt ihr den Rest eben andermal aufgetischt. Ist ja wie bei Eintopf, aufgewärmt schmeckt eh besser.
Schon mal sorry, ich habe garantiert nicht alle Besucher auf den Fotos.
Es war einfach zu viel los.
Hier nun die Fotos. > https://bit.ly/3E4b7EF

View from our Penthouse Apartment on Park Avenue over Central Park. We can see from balcony the UFO over little New Jersey. wow. The Central Park alone is 3x1 big. Whole sim is 7x7 and with off sim mountains etc 8x8. You can do a lot of things in Central Park. Swim in lake, Windsurf, riding horses, go on Concert at the Central Park stage, gather to play chess ... and much more. Like you do in Central Park in New York City too. lol If you put on sunset or midnight environment it is the right ambient to enjoy and it is enough light everywhere. If you want some worrying scary scenes you can use the shared environment with fog lol Of course, most people use midday environment. But ambient is not the same then to enjoy all the different aspects to feel the sim alive with all the people and traffic. For videos you should look on my rumble account. I posted there more than 50 videos. Perhaps it is recommended for people with old computer to see all alive. My videos you can find here on 3 pages. Most are 1080 pt videos recorded with my MacBook.

Howdy guys!

The hat and gun shop has moved to a new building.
The old one became too small.
Buy your own rifle or revolver today and put on a hat.
Because without it you are not a man!

Hi all,

I'm looking for an easy way to generate good looking map tiles. The main usecase here is for textures for Val's awesome rental kiosks. For now - I have just grabbed the existing map tile (or just taken a screenshot of the map itself) but I have seen far better renditions elsewhere.

My investigations have led me to Warp3DImageModule with an understanding that it may have a memory leak and so not to use with refreshing tiles. As I have that set to never anyway and manually generate new images with "generate map" - that's not an issue for me.

However, as soon as I set that as the map module - the regions refuses to get past loading objects. It then just sits there forever (or at least too long). It seems that either the module is broken - or I need additional configuration that I can see no reference to.

Anyone know what's wrong with this module and/or have a solution for making a nice looking map tile?

Many thanks :)

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.
