Info for all jealous and knowledgeable who claim my grid and 162 sim are slow. (user01) I did a test with an old pentium 4 Intl core 2 quad 3.2GHz, 8GB memory card 6 years out of life no more driver, "1GBite" internet. I'm going to my sim house market 60000 prim hard test. No difference to my PC i7 core 8, 4.3GHz, 32GB memory new Graficcard Gigabite. All work fine and stable fast. :-D
If my grid is slow for you, it may be time to think about the 50MBite internet and your old PC. That could be helpful. ;-)

Halloween with Fred: The Zombie That Just Won’t Stay Dead

Halloween is creeping closer, which means it is time to dig through the wonderfully strange corners of Outworldz and resurrect a few old friends.

And this one is very difficult to keep dead.

Meet Fred’s Animated Zombie.

This isn't the sort of zombie that stands in the corner of your Halloween build looking menacing while everyone ignores it.

Fred apparently looked at that idea and decided zombies needed a better job description.

This zombie walks.
It attacks.
It makes noise.
You can hit it.
It falls apart.
It puts itself back together.

And, naturally...

YOU CAN RIDE IT.

Because why run away from the zombie when you can climb aboard and drive the thing around?

A Zombie With a Few Tricks Left in Him

Fred designed the zombie as an animated wandering character using his Prim Animation Compiler system.

The animation sequence includes standing, attacking, walking with alternating left and right steps, reacting to hits, taking a particularly nasty hit, and finally falling completely to pieces.

But death is apparently only a temporary inconvenience.

After enough abuse, the zombie collapses into scattered pieces on the ground.

Wait a bit...

...and he puts himself back together.

Then off he goes again.

There is something wonderfully Fred about engineering an undead creature that even death can't persuade to stop working.

Go Ahead. Hit Him.

The zombie actually keeps score as people interact with him.

Clicking him causes a hit reaction and eventually does enough damage to trigger the full death animation.

Head, arms, body — down he goes.

Then the zombie reassembles himself and resumes wandering around.

It makes a great interactive Halloween prop because visitors aren't simply looking at something spooky. They're causing things to happen.

And probably clicking him repeatedly just to see him explode again.

We know how people are.

But Wait — There's a Ride Me Button

This may be my favorite part.

Right-click the zombie and choose RIDE ME.

Your avatar climbs aboard, and suddenly the shambling Halloween decoration has become transportation.

Fred's script turns the zombie into a controllable vehicle, allowing you to steer him with your arrow keys.

So while everyone else is arriving at the Halloween party on broomsticks, motorcycles and dragons, you can make your entrance...

piggybacking on a zombie.

I think that wins Halloween.

When You Get Off, It Gets Even Better

Getting off your undead transportation doesn't simply end the ride.

The zombie falls apart.

Then he reassembles himself.

Then he walks back home.

Because apparently Fred even taught the zombie to clean up after the party.

The Engineering Behind the Silly

That's what I particularly enjoy about discoveries like this in the Outworldz archives.

They're funny, but underneath the humor is some genuinely clever scripting.

The zombie combines prim animation, sounds, physics, vehicle controls, randomized movement, interaction, damage scoring, roaming boundaries and a home position into one wonderfully ridiculous project.

Fred didn't just explain how to use it, either. His original tutorial documents how the animations are recorded, how the physics base is constructed, how the sounds are added, how the riding position is created and how the scripts work together.

It's one of those projects where you can play with the finished creation — or dig into the code and learn something from the way it was made.

That has always been part of the fun of Outworldz.

Build something.

Take it apart.

Learn how it works.

Change it.

And occasionally ride it around while it makes monster noises.

Resurrect Something This Halloween

There are years and years of creations tucked away at Outworldz, and Halloween seems like an excellent excuse to start opening some of those old crypts.

Fred's zombie certainly deserves another walk among the living.

Just remember one important rule:

If you manage to kill him...

don't celebrate too quickly.

He's getting back up. https://outworldz.com/Secondlife/posts/zombie/

The Balloons of Fleetwood Beach

The Steampunk balloons of Fleetwood Beach offer a special way to explore the region from the air.

Visitors can choose between two different experiences.

There are player-controlled balloons, where you take the pilot’s seat and fly the balloon yourself. You control its altitude, direction and movement. The deliberately slow and slightly delayed handling gives the impression of flying a large, heavy airship rather than a fast vehicle.

If you prefer to relax and simply enjoy the view, you can take the automatic balloon tour instead. The balloon follows a predefined route through Fleetwood Beach, allowing passengers to enjoy a comfortable sightseeing trip without having to control the flight themselves.

This way, every visitor can decide whether they want to be the pilot or simply enjoy the ride as a passenger.

Whether you fly on your own or take the automatic tour, the balloons provide a unique view of the buildings, landscapes and attractions of Fleetwood Beach and are one of the most enjoyable ways to explore the region.

Jetpack with real flames! flames light when you are in fly mode. Touch it for TP menu.
we use cold-burning flame propulsion to avoid melting latex

I want to be specific: I have been an artist in RL for decades, i had worked on paper and did collages when nobody knew what computers could do. The only machine i had was a copy machine and it was fun. I had also put my face on it and objects, experimenting a lot. I dont use AI on my artwork these days because i could not do art without it. I am experimenting. I was mixing RL artwork and virtual photography (exposed them in a gallery in RL), now adding AI to it and using different prompts and filters and exploring programs and having so much fun. Any artist can choose his tools, that is perfectly ok for me and i would visit an exhibition for other aspects than what tools are used to express the content, does this person have someting to tell me? (btw. i like to use the french word expo - exposition because what ideas people have in that expression is what i imagine in the english expression. not going into details. lol)

Hello, dear manufacturers and copycats of Mesh products (houses, furniture, clothing).
Time and again, you release AI-edited versions of your products.
But when I take a look, oh well—it looks terrible.
Be honest and post it exactly as it appears in the viewer.
Thank you.

We did it!!! We had many requests by many people around opensim who cares that asked us to open a Grid to give back to the Opensim Community, and here it is.

You all are invited to the grand Opening on **September 4th starting at 10am (Grid Time).**

BK-Mode – Petite, aber mit großem Mundwerk

Vier Frauen, ein Moment, und dieses herrlich unperfekte Flair, das entsteht, wenn niemand versucht, irgendwem etwas zu beweisen. Hier wird nicht posiert, hier wird gelebt – mit kleinen Seitenhieben, spontanen Blicken und dieser frechen Selbstverständlichkeit, die sagt: „Ich bin hier, weil ich Lust drauf habe.“ Die Szene wirkt wie ein zufälliger Schnappschuss aus einem Tag, an dem alles leicht fällt, ohne dass man darüber nachdenkt.

Und genau darin liegt der Zauber: ein Ensemble, das nicht inszeniert, sondern einfach passiert. Ein bisschen Chaos, ein bisschen Charme, ein bisschen „Oh là là“ – aber alles auf BK‑Art, also mit Humor und einer Prise Selbstironie. Wer stehenbleibt, merkt schnell: Das ist kein Modemoment, das ist ein Lebensgefühl, das sich nicht erklären muss.

An Vanaheims Küste ist ein Schiff auf Grund gelaufen. Wir haben mal schnell noch etwas von der Ladung gerettet. Muss wohl ein Kunsttransport gewesen sein. Aber kommt und seht selber....

A ship has run aground off the coast of Vanaheim. We managed to quickly salvage some of the cargo. It must have been an art shipment. But come and see for yourselves...
