I tried running 5.87 but... I had issues with it. It loaded the wizardry sim 3x the objects. In other words you could delete any object and there would stilll be 2 of the same object in the same spot. Additionally, it loaded only very little of other oars. So regions that were huge would only load like 200 mb. So not sure what is up with 5.87. I did however, find a complete save of 5.62 where i backed up the entire dreamgrid directory. So I copied that to a new production location and executed it, and im back in business. Since I have the storage space I may do this from now on.

if you come to Big City Life you need patience. lol First to load in cache and then to drive with public transportation like bus and train. (but you can drive with taxi or any other car too)
There are already driving 2 blue busses with each 40 min routes. The green bus is only driving close to shops and is in the city. This tour is just 7 min long.
The Maglev Tram brings you also to suburbs and country side. There are two trams. But one tour is 20 min long.
The Santa Fe is the fastest and just needs 15 min for a circuit.
The Sydney City train is slow and needs 23 min for a circuit.
So if you wait at bus stops or at railway stations, then take your time.
It could be that the Santa Fe is not driving. But then it has home at landing point railway station and you can start it by yourself. Just click on locomotive and you get blue menu. First you click "align" and then "start". That's it. (Listen if the Locomotive really says "align" and "starting". Align is important. If it has not said align then click once more align.)
It all depends how long the grid is running without a restart and how many people are on the whole grid. Usually if the grid is running one day all is working fine. But after two days it gets slower and if many people were on the whole grid the more. On Decadence Grid is also the biggest mall in opensim "Grimm". Grimm has usually always traffic. Just the Athena clothes building is 1 km long and you get all there.
But usually one day after restarting grid, all works perfect how it should.
Anyway there is no guarantee that all busses and trains arrive punctually, although I am German. lol Our Deutsche Bundesbahn is not anymore that punctually too. lol

But you can also fly with helicopter or planes. The planes start at airport, of course and fly in altitude about 200 meters. One starts at Hangar and one at Terminal 6. There was another at terminal 4 but this would have been too much. lol Be sure you have a good computer and can use 1024 distance draw. Otherwise you would not have fun.
For the 4 helicopters it is the same. But the blue helicopter is just flying at 60 meters altitude and you can reduce distance draw to enjoy. The helicopters land at different points. Just the emergency heli starts and lands on roof of the Broadway building. Here you can watch a flight with it over central park.

Long beach is perhaps the longest beach in opensim. More than 2 km long. (For draw distance reason at 1024 I can't take full picture.) Be careful with traffic at the promenade street. Lot of walkers and skaters. So don't stand around on pavement and look in the air lol This part of Big City Life is not leaned on NYC. More inspiration comes from Tel Aviv. But is a fantasy VR city anyway. lol

Editorial from a popular magazine in another world. Everything has been duplicated here in open sim - with some variations. I am working in conjunction with Chant Lyric. Chant is rarely online and has contributed a great deal of her builds over the years to the OMG Twiztid Timez region. I am honored to have her on board. This is why you will often see photography or builds that have been designed by Chant and not OMG.

Sam and I are restarting our tradition of Thursday parties. You are warmly welcome to come enjoy our eclectic mix in a super relaxed environment. 11am - 3-ish PM SLT Every Thursday. No excuses! lol

Funsize Dinkies Roadtrip is back after a Christmas Break... Today the Dinkies headed off to Pepperland I & II.
(Can be found at https://opensimworld.com/hop/79336 )

A fantastic Region with lots to see and alot of hard work has gone into the Story being told on there to follow. Pepperland is the creation by Mudpuddle Cleanslate and Chelsea Louloudi, of many scenes from Yellow Submarine... a 1968 British animated musical fantasy comedy film inspired by the music of the Beatles.

The Funsize Dinkies loved the every moment on this Region.

Howdy Folks!
With the new year, the buffaloes have returned to Fort Sand!
We wish you a 2025 full of happiness, health, love and peace!
Mitakuye Oyasin!

Visit Fort Sand!
Here ist Your Stagecoach: hop://moonrose-grid.de:8002/Yggdrasil/89/36/1003

May 2025 bring you endless joy, success, and cherished moments with loved ones.
A new year is like a blank canvas. Paint it with bold colors, bright ideas and your beautiful imagination.
Happy New Year!
Cheers from C&C

If anyone is looking to collaborate with people with skillz, the "What Are You Looking For" group is the place to ask.

So, there may or may not be people who want to work together like the Gilded Accord do. (Form a Builders Guild perhaps?).

The fine folks in the Sharing is Caring family have this all sorted out I think. They are some of the original importers and likely had a way to coordinate their efforts. @ChilliBean. Felix Mafia does a great amount of work with getting bodies and heads to work in OS. Last I checked, he's also part of the Sharing is Caring family.

Wishing all Opensimers a great 2025 - To celebrate the new year - come visit the Africa sim to listen to African vibes at the entrance on stream, or visit the Amapiano lounge for some amapiano tunes .... or check Kippie's Jazz for South African jazzy vibes.

You will find TPs to these two vibey spots at the entrance :)
