NEWS!!! The Clown About PBR in my outfits – please read 🙂

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a small note for those using my outfits in OpenSim. Some of my newer creations now include PBR materials (Physically Based Rendering), which means they use a more realistic way of handling how light interacts with textures — something that’s become the standard in Second Life and is now available in OpenSim too, with the right viewer.

If you're using the latest version of Firestorm, you'll be able to enjoy these advanced textures in full quality.
If your viewer is not updated, you might see the materials as plain white — this is normal for viewers that don’t yet support PBR.

But what is PBR really?

It’s not just adding a normal and specular map on top of a texture. True PBR materials are created externally (outside the viewer), using multiple specialized maps (like metallic, roughness, etc.) and then uploaded as complete material assets into OpenSim. This allows for a much more realistic and immersive visual experience.

Why am I doing this?

Because I believe OpenSim has a lot of potential to evolve visually, and I’d love to contribute to that by offering higher-quality content for those ready to explore it. Don’t worry though — I always include a regular (non-PBR) version of my outfits so that everyone can enjoy them, regardless of the viewer they use.

But if you’re curious and want to see what’s possible, I warmly invite you to try updating your viewer and check out the PBR versions. It’s a small step that can make a big difference in how you experience the world.

Thanks for reading, and as always, I appreciate your support and feedback!

BK Mode – trag, was dich markiert.

BK-Mode ist kein Styling. BK-Mode ist Grenzziehung. Wer sie trägt, setzt Koordinaten: scharf, direkt, unverkennbar. Keine Kompromisse, keine Erklärungen. Die Schnitte sprechen. Die Silhouetten antworten. Und wer hineinschlüpft, verschwindet nicht – er tritt auf.

BK Mode – für alle, die nicht bloß erscheinen, sondern Spuren hinterlassen.

Sechs Outfits, ein gemeinsamer Takt: kraftvoll, klar und kompromisslos. Die neue Linie im BK-Shop inszeniert Mode als Haltung – mit Schnitten, die provozieren, und Details, die dominieren. Jeder Look ist ein Dialog zwischen urbaner Coolness und luxuriöser Präzision.

Ob Leder, Denim oder grafische Statements – diese Kollektion spielt nicht mit Trends, sie setzt sie. Für alle, die sich nicht anpassen, sondern abheben. Für alle, die wissen: Stil ist kein Zufall, sondern Entscheidung.

BK-Shop – wo Mode Charakter zeigt.

Okay, after being asked several times about REBORN clothes, I finally decided to try one!

Here's my first attempt and the result!

You can find it right outside the store office.

I'm not sure yet whether I'll make more Reborn clothes. We'll see ;-)

How to Find Interesting Places In OS.
My first post on the front page, https://opensimworld.com/post/124641?msgSuccess=Posted, was about the OSW forums. My aim was to get people familiar with the forums and do a follow-up post advocating for the use of the General forum as a tool to (guess what) clean up the front page Box. That post will be happening soon. But one comment to the last post was that they would like to use OWS to find cool builds and things people make. So, here we go. I hope this is of use to other folks as well.

Region Reviews And Likes.
Among the event announcements and such, there are a few posts about new builds and new stuff. But one of the best places on OWS to find the best places in OS is the region reviews. New reviews are found on the bottom right of the front page, and all of a regions reviews are found on a region's own page, again at bottom left. Just bellow it, you will also see the number of "likes." Click on that to see who it was that left a like. Do you like them? Then you might like what they like. Like, this is not confusing yet, right? Also, you can find new "Likes" on the bottom left of the OSW front page.

"What Are You Looking For?"
You could ask in this group about where you can find the best builds. https://opensimworld.com/groups/1060.

Hypergrid Safari.
The best way to find interesting builds and stuff is to take part in the hypergrid tour group, Hypergrid Safari. You can find information about both future and past tours, going back 3 years, on their group page, https://opensimworld.com/groups/1033. They have weekly trips to meet people and see places in Opensim. As the group founder and tour leader Thirza Ember says, “We party, learn, network, and crash unsuspecting grids.” You might also want to visit the Safari Clubhouse. hg.osgrid.org:80:HG Safari

Cherry Manga, one of the foremost multimedia artists and builder of interesting places and stuff in OS, said in a review, "HG Safari is the best place to learn about hypergrid, and to discover fabulous places to visit." In fact, visit Cherry's page to find a list of her regions and the regions she has liked. You could do your own tour by visiting them. https://opensimworld.com/user/CherryManga.”

As for me, I'd like to find a region to celebrate National Pizza Month. Help anyone?

Die frühe Kindheit aber ist ein Wandern zwischen Orten: die Familie zog zunächst nach Derry und später nach Cork, und genau dort formte sich das Umfeld, das seinen musikalischen Weg befeuern sollte....

For this post, I’m breaking my long-standing code to speak only in Morse code. Is anyone aware of the OWS forums? Is anyone reading them? Is anyone making legitimate use of them? I have an idea about how to clean up the front page Box using the General Forum. That will be a follow-up post. But first, here is what you will find in OSW Forums.

General – Being used primarily by one user for posts about general stuff it seems.

Help – Posts from people who are actually looking for help. Yippy!

* OpenSim – Being used for event announcements that will never been seen, and by people who won’t pay and support the site by making event announcements on the front page. Things went bad in the forum in the last year. Before then, there were legit posts. The only legit, non-event promoting, post in the last year was about "Age Verification strategies for OpenSimulator and the HG." As an aside, have you met people with profiles that say they are Age Verified. How, exactly?

* SatyrFarms – Now this is a weird one. Spammed by https://opensimworld.com/user/musajackson4 to promote himself as a Witchcraft Zoodoo Black Magic Spell Caster. People complain that Satyr doesn’t moderate OSW enough in general, but he hasn’t cleaned up spam in his own forum for almost 12 weeks. But OWS is largely a labor of love, so give the guy a break – especially if you don’t pay to support the site. But maybe Musajackson4 can cast a Troll-Be-Gone Spell? Nah.

* News – Well, this will not be news. Being used for event announcements that will never been seen, and by people who won’t pay and support the site by making event announcements on the front page. Seeing a pattern here. Deadbeats abound. However, there was a post saying "Wish the news was actually just news, not just advertising drowning out all the bits of news we have".

Technology -- posts from people who are actually looking for help with technology issues. Well done!

* Gaming – see the comment about the *OpenSim, and *News Forums. But there is some good news, I guess. Other than two posts this year, all of the posts are older than one year. Perhaps they realized that their event posts were not being seen?

Feedback – Well, there is this post with an Advertising and Events Forum Suggestion
“It would be great to have specific advertising and events form sections. It might (but we can't guarantee) prevent/reduce the instance of people posting their new product or party everywhere else”. +

There is a forum of sorts for event announcements. It’s call the Front Page. There is a forum for advertising also. It’s called paying for ads. Other than 2 recent posts with genuine feedback, the last authentic feedback was posted 2 years ago. So, being used legitimately, but not being used.

There is no way to clean up the forums. But I’m thinking the General Forum can be used, legitimately, as a way to clean up the Box. Details to come.
