An Art Hive is a community art studio that welcomes everyone as an artist. From an art pop-up in a local library to a community studio or gallery, at its heart, an Art Hive is about inclusion, respect and learning. It's a welcoming place to talk, make art and build communities. Responding in creative ways to things that matter.

i'm taking a break from creating kitchen things and temporarily am researching a Materia Medica for use in Tribulations. this research will be the basis of creating a digital version for use in the apothecary within Thornridge, mortal village of Tribulations.

I still have the cookware to finish, scrap can, garbage cab, outdoor scrap can and garbage to do -- too much scripting atm. lol

The image is the new completed pond for drinking, bathing, fishing, gathering of nearby berries and honeysuckle and watering the livestock. The HUD will track effects from the very cold water. The pond will have options of growing or harboring various additions that will aid, harm or be neutral effects on the players.

NEXA Grid Engine

An OpenSim-compatible virtual world engine by OpenSim Network

OpenSim Network is building something new.

We are officially developing NEXA Grid Engine, a next-generation OpenSim-compatible platform focused on performance, advanced region management, interactive gameplay, vehicles, physics, scripted experiences, missions, APIs, and powerful tools for creators and grid operators.

Our production environment is already running under the first phase of the NEXA architecture, with direct management of ROBUST, MySQL, and individual OpenSim regions.

NEXA is being built for worlds that DO more.

Vehicles.
Games.
Missions.
Interactive regions.
Advanced scripting.
Region automation.
Grid management.
Creator tools.
More control.

And this is only the beginning.
