*** NEW RELEASE ****NG - NEXT GENERATION GREEDY GAME TABLES *** Available for FREE and FULL PERM! Please read notecard READ ME before using table + controller as there are many extra features! I reproduce text from NC here though:
NG GREEDY TABLES NOW are in 2 pieces;

- Table itself (around 41 prims, depending on model used and only 3 scripts);
- Greedy Controller Board (GCB) (89 prims and 1 script); and it can be paired to only ONE TABLE!


ATTENTION: ALWAYS REZ THE TABLE BEFORE THE OTHER PARTS OTHERWISE THE PAIRING WON`T WORK! WHEN BOARD REZED IT SHOWS IN GREEN "SELECT A TABLE". WHEN PEOPLE STARTS PLAYING THE GAME, BOARD SHOWS "GAME IN PROGRESS" IN YELLOW. IF THESE SENTENCES DON`T SHOW UP, DELETE BOTH TABLE AND BOARD AND START ALL AGAIN.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------(GCB) GREEDY CONTROLLER BOARD

ACCESS: U can now set who will be able to change the settings from ur table.

JOIN ON SIT (*): When selected, players will be added automatically to the game when they sit down. If not selected, they need sit down and click JOIN.

(*) Selected or not, players can play the game without sitting down (since they are not far away from table - see PLAY RANGE).

POINTS MODE:
KEEP: Let`s say player A makes 1,4K and leave two dices to be rolled. So next player, B, can choose either ROLL with this two dices left or click STOP and then ROLL again, so table will refresh to 6 dices to rolled. But If player B decides to roll with these two dices left and at least one of them is "1" or a "5" and press STOP he will KEEP the 1,4K points made by player A plus the score given to the dice selected ("1",100 points, "5", 50 points).

STEAL: Exactly like KEEP mode but if player B rolls a "1" or "5" from the two dices left from player A and press STOP he will STEAL the 1,4K points from player A plus the score given to the dice selected ("1",100 points, "5", 50 points).

CLASSIC: Like on V6 tables, so no KEEP / STEAL mode enabled.

DEVIL DICE: When selected, eventually a devil will show instead of a numbered dice. It works like a "joker dice" u often see from SL tables: u can select any value to that dice to make a combo with a highest score possible. Eg: U have two "6". so u could make the devil dice to be a "6" so u will have 6,6,6 (600 points).

SOUNDS: When selected, sounds from table will be ON; when unselected, OFF (sounds volume can be controlled by the buttom VOLUNME);

PARTICLES: It refers to particles threw when game is over: when selected, ON when unselected, OFF;

CHAT: It refers to open chat messages coming from the table during a game: When selected, ON (a); when unselected, OFF (b).

(a) Open chat will be read by players only though. Very handy if u need rez 2 or more tables, close to each other.
(b) Only table reset and winner info will be displayed. Very handy for rezzing tables at club areas.



POINTS TO WIN: It refers the max points a player should reach to be the winner;

POINTS TO JOIN: It refers the min points a player should have to be "in the board".

PLAY RANGE: It refers how far in meters a player can play the game and be recognized by the table. In this case, player needs to press JOIN to join the game. If it occurs the player is > 64 meters, table will do the self cleaning.

ROUND TIME: Time in seconds, a player can play his turn, starting conter AFTER player rolls the dice.

SKIP IDLE: Time in seconds a player has to roll the dices when its ur turn, otherwise a red skip button will show up (between ROLL and STOP on table) and ANYONE (*) can skip the current player.. Very handy for lazy players who are watching Facebook instead of playing greedy lol).

(*) Player won`t able to skip him/herself though.

OBS: When SKIP IDLE is selected to 0 (zero) it will be considered as disabled during the game.


SKIP POINTS: It refers the points given to who skips a player. A such nice incentive to skip lazy players :)

VOLUME: As name says, it controls the volume of sound from table.

Have fun!

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. ;-)

Reborn goes Royal Blue:

Diese Outfits, und noch einige mehr, bringen genau die Mischung aus Glam, Attitüde und „schaut ruhig hin, ich weiß, dass ich gut aussehe“.

Ein Hauch Paris, ein Schuss Drama, viel Stil – perfekt für alle, die Reborn nicht nur tragen, sondern zelebrieren.

The next in the upgraded versions of my animesh animals: ZZUPERCRaaane.
I added an extra layer to the motion, using up/down while flying;
careful with changing settings, its delicately balanced, so make sure u keep track of original settings.
Now available in my zzhop @ Zweet ZurroundingZ.
Have fun!

A place between dream and reality, where each step touches luminous waters and every breath lifts the weight of the world. Among glowing crystals and impossible blooms, Limenaria welcomes wandering souls, turning every gathering into a ritual of renewal.

SIM NORGE now is called TROMSO, based on the RL Northern Norway city, bringing back stuffs I had from the time I was still on GCG grid. From this pic: Ishavskatedralen or Tromsdalen Kirke. Pipe organ and piano, scripted, functional. If you want get married there, be my guest.. just dont invite me lolol (kidding)

Thank you to Dorena for creating this original banner! I have taken it and made a banner for my profile. ANTIFA is NOT an organization. It is an ideology. The ideology of anti-fascism. I will be using this as a base. And I will ensure that the art festival supports my political message. Because ART is POLITICAL. It always has been. It always will be.

MAZE VIEWER MAJOR UPDATE KDU 8.0
I am extremely pleased and excited to announce that I have obtained a license (and yes for those of you that may know this, I confirmed it today for sharing with the community--which is YOU , as an amateur) for KDU. For those that don't know what that means...it is well-- some of you said firestorm still looks a bit better than my work..well it is because of OpenJpg having to be used in opensim. The story is extremely long, it falls like star wars..long ago in a galaxy far away..I don't mind chatting with you about it, though, so say hello if you want to. KDU is the texture library firestorm uses. I wrote them and got the license for 150 dollars! I also added a zoom to whatever object is selected for editing. While it is selected just choose ALT+Z or in Controls in prefs choose your own. In Blender (.) zooms to selected so I duplicated the idea. https://maze.bz/mazebzviewer.zip

Holi est de retour… 🌸✨

Un lieu hors du temps où méditation, relaxation et sensualité se rencontrent à nouveau pour vous accueillir dans une atmosphère douce et apaisante.

Ce renouveau n’aurait pas été possible sans la générosité et la confiance des propriétaires de la grid Bloodmoon, que nous remercions chaleureusement pour leur soutien précieux.

L’aventure continue… et Holi n’attend plus que vous 💫

Holi is back… 🌸✨

bloodmoonpack.com:8002:Holi

A timeless place where meditation, relaxation, and sensuality come together once again to welcome you into a soft and soothing atmosphere.

This revival would not have been possible without the generosity and trust of the owners of the Bloodmoon grid, whom we warmly thank for their invaluable support.

The journey continues… and Holi is now waiting for you 💫

Uses of Walls

The Wall of Dolls, an artistic installation in Milan, Italy, is a poignant and sober statement that marks and condemns violence against women. The wall features dolls of various kinds, symbols of childhood innocence, alongside the names of murdered women, as well as photos, posters, and poems, Some of these detail statistics on crimes against women, and some of them powerful statements written by survivors.

In 1998, the United Nations Development Fund for Women organized a photo exhibit that contrasted a "wall of shame", focusing on women's plight and suffering, with a "wall of hope", showcasing initiatives to end violence against women. More information about the Wall of Hope Campaign: https://www.youtube.com/@wallofhopecampaign512

In Second Life, the collaborative arts group, 2Lei organized a yearly event from 2009 to at least 2019 on November 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. The event may or may not have involved the use of walls. I imagine it did, for art work and the like. More about the event: https://modemworld.me/2019/11/19/no-violence-the-2lei-10th...

If we are going to have a conversation, it could be about this. Not surprisingly, there is "Sexual violence and harassment in the metaverse." https://audri.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/EN-AUDRi-Sexu...

Enough of walls. I prefer a waterfall -- a symbol of strength, resilience, cleansing, or even tranquility. Peace.
