Welcome to Port Arcadia in the Avedon South Region. Arcadia is a festive little gypsy port in the waters of Oceana. Much to explore! There is ample open water for boating, plenty of beautiful photo spots or just enjoy some horseback riding. We are extra proud to be the home of Black Cat Radio, the best music provider across the metaverse! Come by and grab a free radio and check out their festival grounds! Avedon South is an Adult region. Please join our group and be sure to READ our simple rules to help you enjoy your adventure.

Still checking out the Smart Start.

Seems at times to be trying to work correctly, but FS keeps crashing on tp -- and updated to the latest FS and same thing.

Is this something that happens a lot with teleporting to a Smart Start region? Also, noticing my Dream grid tp boards are often not resetting to be active at all once the regions start. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.

I have my delay set to 30 seconds. Have tried 45 seconds too, and same thing. The time for a region to close down in 2 minutes. Have tried less and more, no change.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? Or does this just often glitch out?

Currently playing with the Smart Start on E.

Regions loading then logging off, so messing with it a bit this morning.

UPDATE: Pretty sure I have the settings correct. May need a second attempt to tp, and be patient -- it may give an error, but wait and the tp should happen :)

This will allow us to have many more regions.

Our new landing station at Aveon Park is complete and ready to transport you to wherever you want to go. Explore and learn the history of the park and its founders, or perhaps you can solve the puzzle of the secret society! Explore the beautiful scenery or enjoy a hot air balloon ride. Play Greedy! Check into the La Fountaine hotel's suites, or just hang out in the piano bar. Shop at Luna's Landing. There is ample hiking, photo spots and great locations for boating. Enjoy some Live music at Tesla's. Explore the new Secret Garden. Shop at Luna's Landing. Please join our group and be sure to READ our simple rules to help you enjoy your adventure.

Most regions of E are now back up and fully updated :)

Thank you for your patience, it's been over a week of final backups and upgrades, but we're back in the saddle again.

Dinosaur Island will return soon in a much larger region.

Something New in our Livingroom & Bedroom department at the mall. The Rose Nightstand is a beautiful little Nightstand or End Table of Oak wood and it has beautifully carved drawer fronts for that added panache to your décor. The drawers are scripted so they can be opened and have auto close. Toss a giver script in the drawers and store some of your favorite things in them. Blessings and much love, Lavia

Welcome to the enchanting Goliath Gardens, a realm where you can actually be a bug! As a bug you can experience the wonders of nature up close in this goliath-sized garden. We have bug Avatars! Ladybug, Beetle, Bee, and Praying Mantis!! Be careful in the garden there is a snake that might bite! three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Goliath Gardens

Replacing the old (non-reflective) mirrors in the hairdressing salon with PBR mirrors
* * *
The windlight of BW Castle had to be adapted to the new display with PBR, as it suddenly appeared much too dark. Another PBR inconvenience was the need to retexture the terrain, as all regions in the new viewer were displayed with standard ground textures. Black White Castle with green grass texture doesn't work at all ;)
* * * * *
Austausch der alten (nicht spiegelfähigen) Spiegel im Friseursalon gegen PBR Spiegel
* * *
Das Windlight von BW Castle musste an die neue Darstellung mit PBR angepasst werden, da es plötzlich viel zu dunkel wirkte. Ein weiteres PBR-Ungemach war die Notwendig der Neutexturierung des Terrains, da alle Regionen im neuen Viewer mit Standard-Boden-Texturen angezeigt wurden. Black White Castle mit grüner Grastextur geht gar nicht ;)
