(reposting this for as long as necessary until goal is achieved. hoping to announce success asap so that we can have it concluded and move on to a happy and festive christmas/holiday for all) :)

Our dear Luna Lunaria has passed. Rather than only mourn her, which we all do in our own ways, let us band together and show Luna's real life family...just how much she meant to us.

To some, perhaps Luna was a character from one of her rl human creator's stories. To most of us, she was much, much more. It is with a heavy heart that I have shouldered the responsibility as one of her many friends, to setup a GoFundMe for an idea i had: to name an actual star (or multiple stars different names from her stories or rl family), depending on how well this goes. If you like this idea, please find it in your heart to contribute to a worthy cause! https://gofund.me/60f7d925d

Not one thin penny will go to anything not Luna related, with the main goal being at least an "ultimate" star package from the international star registry. All pertinent information is listed in the interest of transparency. If we exceed the $200 goal, additional items or a bigger package may be purchased. I will be working with Lone Wolf on this, and any real life items to be mailed, will be sent discreetly and privately to Luna's real life family, pending their approval. For now, let's just get this ball rolling and see how much this OpenSim community loves and embraces her. She inspired us and gave us so much. Let us give back. Seriously, if you can spare only a buck, 1 dollar of your native currency, 25 cents, whatever it may be, it all comes from the heart. You are not required for your real name or any info to be publicly disclosed if you donate, so keep that in mind, friends. Any questions please contact Leonitas Lionheart or Remmy Ravenhurst of Homelandz Grid, Star Ravenhurst of Tenth Dimension Grid, or Lone Wolf of Wolf Territories grid.

hey all, long-time fan, first time posting a request... before OSGrid blew up, I had a long evening dress called 'Mirage' and I lost it (which is a shame because I had a bunch of modified textures for it) ... I know it's a long shot but has anyone got it ?

🌹 Memorial Note for Luna Lunaria

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Luna Lunaria, a beloved friend, visionary creator, and cherished member of our community.

Just two days ago, Luna left us suddenly due to a massive heart attack, leaving all who knew them in shock and sorrow.

Luna was the heart behind Lunaria’s Emporium and Luxor, stores that became cornerstones in OpenSim. Through these creations, countless people found joy, inspiration, and connection. Luna’s work was more than commerce—it was artistry. From buildings to intricate items, every creation carried a spark of imagination and care that made them unforgettable.

What set Luna apart was not only extraordinary talent but also a profound dedication to others. Customers were never just buyers; they were valued friends. Luna always ensured that each person felt cared for, listened to, and delighted with what they received. This compassion, paired with creative brilliance, made Luna a living legacy in every sense.

Luna’s presence will be deeply missed, but the legacy lives on in the worlds built, the communities touched, and the memories shared. To all who adored Luna and their creations, may we carry forward that same spirit of creativity, kindness, and connection.

The traditional Christmas market in Dorena's World is now open to everyone again. It has existed in this form since 2015, making it one of the oldest in OpenSim.

HIMMELEN GO-KART i NORGE
Feeling adventurous? Come to ride go-karts available now at NORGE ( on tp area, inside the castle there is teleport vendor straight to there).
Still working on the script that counts the laps and position but go-karts rezzer is already available so one can have some fun!
Enjoy :)

A little rant. When SL implemented PBR textures, they included a script command called llSetRenderMaterial, which allows you to change the PBR material texture of a surface. Multiple scripts are now available there that do just that. This is similar to llSetTexture we've used forever to change the older blinn-phong textures.

When Opensim implemented their version of PBR, they decided that we didn't need osSetRenderMaterial activated for scripts, because really, who would actually use that stuff? If there's another more plausible reason I would love to hear it.

Ran into this trying to update a simple light sconce which allows you to touch the object to add light, fullbright, and glow to a surface to mimic a light that's turned on. For PBR, while turning on light is still the same, brightness and glow are managed by the emissive texture layer of a PBR Material. So to mimic a glowing light, you would need to be able to - you guessed it - CHANGE the material. But of course that's currently impossible in Opensim until someone incorporates that script function into code.

In the pics, you can see the PBR sconce on the left, and one with older textures on the right. In the top pic the light is off on both and in the bottom pic the light is on. The PBR glass looks great, and the light works, but you have no glow to show it's on. So for now, until osSetRenderMaterial is activated, I will have to set the glass material to always glowing. Or more likely, I will add a bulb inside with no PBR that will glow when touched.

Whether you’re looking for a loyal companion, a questionable life-choice, or just something that stares at you with a glossy robot-frog face, there’s a bot waiting for you.
Adopt responsibly. Or don’t. It’s the apocalypse anyway.
