Hypergrid Beacon teleporter
Can someone help please?
I have tried for 2 days to set up the open sim hypergrid TP, I followed all instructions exactly but when I paste my key and click submit nothing happens and I have message above the TP board saying Not Initialized.

Searching for animated Pets
Hi everyone where can i find animated cats and dogs that follow you on your region?
Where my fuzzbuts, Nekos and Kitsunes at?
At one time opensim use to have a thriving group of furs, nekos, kitsunes, etc.. but now their nowhere. Did they all go back to SL? Yes true there are my valleys, Bastian's Furry Paradise, and Jeeper's White wolf regions but to the best of my knowledge, that's it.
new version
is there a new version of Satyr Farms out
is there a new version of Satyr Farms out
maybe 3.1 or 31???
Thanks
Farm items got reset to zero, after reboot and grid offline for 8 hours
Hi,
My 100 casks of maturing wine and whiskey are poofing expiring, my farm birds all became eggs, I lost three trays of stored produce reset to 0%, and all my vines and trees are stripped etc... after a reboot and when our grid was offline for 8 hours, I was wondering if I could get some assistance and information from a fellow farmer or maybe the developer of the farming game,
Thank you,
Tenshi

Purchased items don't show up in inventory
Hi, I'm a resident of OSGrid and am fairly inexperienced with hypergriding. I've been hopping to different grids looking for items to set up my avi and home on OSGrid, and I've had some successful transfers of items between various grids. Yesterday, I finally found a few buildings / structures for my new home at Cobra Bay Mall on Neverworld, but when I buy the items, they don't appear in my inventory. I attempted to buy 10-12 items, and each transaction seemed normal, barring the items actually reaching inventory. I received an "unable to authenticate" message with a singular item, but this message was not replicated with the others. Does anyone know what could be the issue?
Stop me if you heard this before: I can't log in.
Same user name and password that brought me here. Firestorm and OSGrid won't let me log in.
Unable to Verify Identity
I'm new to the metaverse...I'm trying to explore some of the grids, but i receive the error message, "Unable to verify identity"...what do I have to do to be able to teleport to grids here...?

Continuous Beacon Problems and No Support for it
That beacon has become a royal pain. And with no one answering me or fixing the problem as to the scripts in it causing my region textures to turn white including everything in it, not being able to delete the beacon(it always comes back), and no support for the performance for this thing makes me want to get rid of it. It has wrecked havok on my region since I put it down. Who is tech support for opensimworld and where do I contact them.I need this fixed asap.
I want to thank all the grid owners who chose to ban me. Special thanks to AMV who pretend to be surprised and even try to give me advice and imitate sympathy...
I have nothing against the choice to ban me - the grid is yours and the decision too! But... be honest, don't hide and don't lie that you don't know which IP addresses you have banned.
SHAME!

Alina Custom Vehicles.
Now at OS grid a bigger store with easy access around the region bringing unusual and unseen vehicles in Opensim.
Double sim full of vehicles, over 250 different vehicles to choose from it costs nothing to look, so take home something great.
New vehicles being added weekly.
All vehicles can be altered or modified should you need, adjustments or additions happily done on request..
Hope to see you soon.

What is PBR?
PBR (Physically Based Rendering) is a rendering approach that uses physics-based calculations for more realistic lighting, while Blinn-Phong is a non-physically based, older shading model that approximates specular highlights. PBR uses techniques like energy conservation and microfacet models to create more accurate materials that react realistically to light, whereas Blinn-Phong often produces a plastic-like, less realistic appearance. PBR is generally more computationally efficient and produces more consistent results because it focuses on the material's properties rather than the final rendered output.
PBR (Physically Based Rendering)
- Based on physics: PBR is a collection of techniques that aim to mimic how light interacts with surfaces in the real world.
- Realistic output: It produces more realistic results because it uses inputs like the material's microfacet properties and energy conservation to calculate how light reflects.
- Consistent results: The final appearance is more predictable and consistent because it is not based on a specific "look" but on physical principles.
- Efficient: PBR is often more efficient, as it relies on a smarter implementation where a single material object contains all the necessary textures and a single drag-and-drop can apply them.
- Example textures: Uses textures like metallic, roughness, and normal maps to define the material's physical properties.
Blinn-Phong
- Approximation: It is a non-physically based shading model that approximates the appearance of light reflection.
- Less realistic output: It can produce a "plastic" or less realistic look because it doesn't account for real-world light behavior.
- Fixed pipeline: It was developed for older fixed-function graphics pipelines and works by calculating a specular highlight based on the angle between the view direction and a halfway vector, rather than the more complex rendering equation.
- Texture maps: It typically uses diffuse, specular, and other texture maps to define its appearance.
So what does that all mean? It means PBR is more efficient and better at handling how light reacts with a material, producing a more realistic rendering. So PBRs are considered materials and not simply textures, because all the bumps, surface roughness and textures are included on one packaged resource.
In the upper image, I put a light source between two cubes.
LEFT: PBR
RIGHT: Blinn_phong
You can see how the light reflects correctly on the left and the right looks more plasticy
In the bottom picture is:
LEFT: PBR Drag and drop
MIDDLE: Blinn-Phong Adjusted, meaning I turned down the default shininess
RIGHT: Default Blinn-Phong No adjustments made
