Erlebe die Magie des Weihnachtsmarkts ?✨

Willkommen in einer Welt voller Besinnlichkeit, Freude und Liebe!
Tauche ein in den Zauber der Weihnachtszeit: Der Duft von Zimt und gebrannten Mandeln liegt in der Luft, sanfte Lichter glitzern wie Sterne, und liebevoll dekorierte Stände laden zum Verweilen ein.

We all love to fly, don't we?
So I decided to make a ridable version of my dragon, as rezzer, so all your visitors can get their own.
Its temp, no worry of littering your place.
Get yours in my shop!

New: animesh hummingbird, as wearable and free roaming
Apologies to all who came to the shop in vain......I forgot to put the sellboxes in place^^...
Please come and pick your copy up now!

UPDATE; seems somehow the humz got broken for some people, deforming the avatar; I replaced the bird in the sellbox, if u have this issue, please return to pick up the new!

I am pleased to announce the opening of the Selea Core Store, located in the southeast corner of the Star Ravenhurst Designs region. This project, which I dedicated over two weeks to last November, aims to preserve the body of work created by Selea Core, who left Open Sim unexpectedly around 2016-17.

At that time, Victor DeAngelo, Ms. Kal, and I gathered all the available Selea Core products. Victor also sourced additional items, re-boxing and labeling them since many were originally stored in folders rather than their original packaging. These items were subsequently offered at his shop.

Years later, I observed that many of these boxes had migrated to different locations, and several had become corrupted, containing duplicates or broken items. Consequently, I undertook the task of meticulously cleaning, repairing, and reboxing them with new labels to distinguish my collection from others. Additionally, I included rare Elven items from my collection that are not widely distributed elsewhere.

While I strive for perfection, I acknowledge that some boxes may not be flawless. However, I assure you that the Selea Core boxes available at this shop are clean, up-to-date, and ready for you to take home.

Please note that Selea Core often used Rezzers for her houses and many of her scenes, typically designed for a single 1x1 SIM. You will need to adjust the script to match the size of your region for the rez box to function correctly. If you require assistance, please feel free to reach out.
Special thanks to Victor DeAngelo for helping to preserve the work, Jupiter Rowland for sharing his SC collection with me, and Ms. Kal for leaving my boxes in her sandbox all this time so I didn't lose the collection.

I don't usually support mesh bodies that have got nothing to do with Ruth2 or Roth2. But I've come across an improvement trick for Athena 6 with BoM that nobody seems to know.

The major problem is that the skin on Athena 6's limbs may look weird under certain viewer settings, much like a lighting bug. Some skin areas look brighter or darker than they should.

A minor problem is that alpha masks don't work on Athena 6 although they technically should with BoM.

The reason is because Athena 6 has a chaotic hodge-podge of alpha settings all over it. Parts are set to alpha masking, more parts are set to alpha blending (it's them which may look weird to you or to others), most have alpha off (this is why alpha masks don't work on Athena 6 out of the box).

The solution:

Step 1: Edit your Athena 6 body. All of it, not just any piece. Select it in your inventory while wearing it.

Step 2: Go to the Texture tab.

Step 3: Set the alpha mode to alpha masking.

Now the different shades of skin colour are gone, but your hands and feet may turn partially white. Don't panic, this is supposed to happen and will be fixed in the next steps.

Step 4: Set the mask cutoff to 128. If it is already 128, set it to 127 and back to 128.

The white should disappear, and your body should look normal again. Or better than what you saw previously.

Step 5: Take the body off and put it back on to save the new settings.

Also, you can now wear alpha masks like you can on the system body which might save you from the hassles that come with the alpha cuts on the HUD, and which you can save with outfits. The only limitation is that the alpha masks still don't work on fingernails and toenails.

Should alpha masks stop wearing, just edit the body and set the mask cutoff to 127 and back to 128.

The same method should work on Adonis 4 if you want to use alpha masks with BoM.

Oh, and before anyone tries this on Ruth2 v4 or Roth2 v2: You don't have to, at least not with the "BoM" bodies and Ruth2 v4 "Business". They've got alpha mode controls on the HUD. The "0.8.2.1" versions, on the other hand, are de-scripted and have no HUD, so they require this trick, too, if alpha masks don't work.

Added 3 beautiful new music boxes assorted tunes. Oh did I mention they are 1 prim each . A whimsical Elven enjoyment!

NOTICE:
Anyone who picked up a music box earlier, please stop in to receive the updated ON/OFF upgrade.
Nothing drives people crazy more then a music box that won't shut up! lol sorry. Hmm , wonder if that will work on hubby.

Due to recent events...

Not good news... Yesterday's CT scan revealed a large number of new tumors in Anachron's stomach. The chemotherapy has been stopped, and the doctors are considering their next steps. They're quite surprised by the findings that he can still eat at all...
I just found out and am still in shock... What they only told Anachron today, even though it's been known for some time, is that the cancer has spread, including to his adrenal gland, so surgery isn't an option. The chemotherapy so far has prevented further spread, but not the tumor's growth. They're having another consultation and want to see if they can try a different drug, but they can't yet assess its side effects.

On a positive note, the doctors are quite surprised that Anachron's vital signs are so good and that he's feeling relatively well despite the diagnosis.

IMAGE-NPC Machine — A streamlined NPC management station for OpenSim 0.9.x. Easily snapshot avatars' appearances into notecards, preview NPCs from your library, cycle animations for posing, and manage all NPCs from one linkset. This replaces our old four-script system with a single root-prim engine using pure OSSL—no permission issues or orphan NPCs. It's owner-only and prevents unauthorized sitting.

Quick Setup: In about 30 seconds, rez four cubes, link them, insert the assembler script, and touch once. It reshapes the linkset into the machine, then self-deletes. Add a few standing animations and the IMAGE-NPC Machine.lsl script to start using it.

Working on a V8 (version 8) of the OpenSIM ONLINE WEATHER SYSTEM. On this version, just adding an EEP addon. So if it`s raining on ur region, it inserts automatically an cloudy/rainy EEP sky on your region - owner no longer need be online to change it. (working with 4 variations - Total clear sky, partial cloudy sky, cloudy/raining/snowing sky and foggy sky. Still running some tests and also checking if it will work at least on the big grids. Any ideas of feedback how the weather system could be, post here.

Not many people know this, but I underwent major surgery on January 16 and am still recovering. That is why you have not been seeing me in-world as much lately.

I kept this mostly private, but I realize that doing so may have left some of you wondering, especially those visiting my shopping regions and waiting longer than usual for responses. I apologize for the delays and appreciate your patience.

The surgery was successful, but healing has been slower than I hoped, and rebuilding my energy has been a challenge. I am doing my best and gradually increasing my time online. I check Facebook and Discord daily, so those are the best ways to reach me for now rather than in-world messages.

I have many projects on hold that I am looking forward to resuming. I am adding new content to the store and will make an announcement as soon as everything is fully ready.

If you visit the shop and an item is not set for sale, it simply means it still needs final work. Please do not request early copies. I do not have the energy to rush custom requests at this time. Once items are ready, they will be available. In the meantime, there is plenty of original content available now.

Now that you know what has been going on, I would deeply appreciate your prayers, chants, healing thoughts, or whatever form of good energy you practice. It has been a difficult season, but I am improving each day. I miss being in-world with you all and look forward to returning more fully soon.

With love and gratitude.

Ein neues Jahr heißt neue Hoffnung, neues Licht, neue Gedanken und neue Wege zum Ziel.

Einen guten Start ins Jahr das wünsch ich Dir!
Wenn's alte Jahr erfolgreich war, dann freue Dich aufs neue.

Und war es schlecht, ja dann erst recht.
Ich wünsche euch nur das beste

A new year means new hope, new light, new thoughts, and new paths to your goals.

I wish you a wonderful start to the year!

If the old year was successful, then look forward to the new one.

And if it was bad, then all the more reason to look forward to it.

I wish you all the best. Love, Karin

Möge die stille Zeit von Weihnachten

I am devastated. I loved and respected Mal, and I will miss his friendship and spending time with him, as we all will. There is a Facebook group, Friends Of Mal https://www.facebook.com/groups/friendsofmal if you would like to join in honoring and remembering him. Rest in Peace, Dear Friend. Until we meet again.

Through life, there are people and events that take and hold a piece of our soul - sometimes the better, sometimes for the worst. Sometimes the trigger are small, apparently insignificant things.
A piece of mine was taken 9 years ago when I saw the above screenshots in the news. I sobbed for day, as I still do today. I grieved for people I had never met, as I still do today.
PRIDE doesn't hold meaning (or the same meaning) for everyone - and that is okay.
But regardless of where we stand on, of what we believe on - Love and Kindness to our neighbours shall be the Law.
This is, once again, my Starchild wish and Blessing to you all:
'May, when given the choice, you always choose kindness. For you are all Children of the Earth and Starry Heavens, but your race is of Heaven Alone'
Let us remember:
'Let my worship be within the heart that rejoiceth, for behold: all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals; and therefore let there be Beauty and Strength, Power and Compassion, Honour and Humility, Mirth and reverence within you.'
Blessed Pride
In Love & Grief,
Aurora Starchild

Happy New Year to all Opensim grid owners and users alike. I just want to add my thoughts as a few others have on the past year. We have all seen growth or maybe a decline in our grids and even so far as to have our grids banned by other grid owners. Isn't it bad enough real life has tossed us a pandemic to deal with. Losing Family & Friends we have cherished for years to a sickness we can't get control of. We all come online to escape real life even if just for a few hours, to forget our troubles and just have that bit of time to relax, have fun ... and maybe meet a new friend or two.

I recently had one of my users come to me and say why am I banned from such and such grid? My answer of course is "I have no idea no one has contacted me about any issues." I can tell you this ....if I have an issue with a user visiting my grid I am going to ban the offending user/users not the grid they came from. Banning the whole grid for the unfortunate actions of 1 or 2 users in my opinion is childish and very unfair to all the good users from that grid that have the same lets have fun and meet new people and share what each of us have to offer mind set. After all isn't Opensim supposed to be about offering a place to enjoy the free time you wish to spend online when you access a grid?

I and my partner have and will always try to offer a peaceful and enjoyable experience for users of our grid. If you have had an issue with one of our users please don't ban the grid ban the offending user/users and please feel free to contact me regarding any user from the grid. I am one of those No Tolerance for crap people that will not stand for a user tarnishing our grid by doing something they shouldn't. They want to do that crap it's time for them to move on find someplace else where it's acceptable or get their own grid. We have already banned and deleted one user for unacceptable activity and I am not afraid to do it again if needed.

I like to think and I'm sure I have shown to many visitors I am a very reasonable person to deal with. And I try to act on issues ASAP so the grid is enjoyable for users and visitors alike. See something you don't agree with message me and lets talk. Have a user issue message me and let me know so we can get any issues resolved quickly so we can get back to enjoying our grids and members.


Lets make 2022 a year of change for each of us in Opensim. Lets enjoy our online time helping each other, providing fun places and content for members and visitors to our grids, and working together to resolve any issues that arise in an adult manner.

LETS TALK !!!!!

☻ Mirror and mise en abyme ☻

There is no virtual and real for me, my avatar is me, I am my avatar, everything is my reality...

The way I work is a back and forth between the virtual and the real;
Most of the time, everything starts with a 3D model that is often used in my virtual installations, then this model is printed in 3D and becomes a physical sculpture. Finally, I sometimes scan these sculptures while keeping the alterations they contain and reintroduce them into the virtual space.

These different works have superimposed layers, by playing with the different techniques, they transform, reveal glitches, this mutation is the reflection of the random and multiple visions that I like to explore.

In the AnatoBotanica region, I created a space where you can see my real sculptures in the form of scans, and also a gallery with works in augmented reality.

Some of my actual sculptures, as well as augmented reality digital prints are available for sale, to view my work please visit: https://artmvn.art/

♥Thank you Pangea Grid team for letting me build on Anatobotanica ♥

I appreciate the support of the OpenSim community in upvoting reviews of my region, even though some may be unfairly critical from those who have never actually visited.
My decision to ban an avatar I deemed underage (Child or Teen) was made in good faith, though it has prompted malicious and vindictive responses. If you've had a positive experience on my grid, I encourage you to share that by voting for accurate, unbiased reviews.
