The Majestic Ballroom exterior has been completely remodeled and the venue is now complete at Lunaria Emporium with full pbr textures (the build also has similar older fallback textures for those using non-pbr viewers).

Includes lighting controls and these extras: a full Art Deco Bar, ballroom dining set, a palm tree, a ground spotlight, a bird chandelier, two Art Deco framed prints, two Art Deco tall Lamps, three instruments and a microphone (all unscripted), and a lotus flower candle. These are for you to use any way you like and can be copied and modified, but nothing may be given away except the art prints and the instruments which come full perm.

If you're just exploring, be sure to pick up the art prints and instruments for free inside the ballroom. You can find the ballroom by clicking the Art Deco teleport sign inside the lobby on the left as you walk in. Important note: if you land on the top of the cinema complex when you first arrive at the Emporium, take a single step forward to activate the teleporter to the lobby.

After almost 2 years in development (yeah i'm slow), I realize it could be another 2 years before the Chased region is ready. So i've decided to open up for testing. You are invited to come for some random surprises and fun. I'm not giving away much info here, you'll find out when you get there...

A damage enabled fae region full of surprises and pretty (and dangerous) things. Some basic skills like knowing how to run and jump, will keep you alive a little longer. Things are random, even I frequently die there!

My regions are hosted on my pc, and can run only a few avatars at once. If by chance the region has many visitors and you find lag, you might want to come back later when its quiet.

First, just a general piece of advice.
If Xenon Darrow ever offers to drive you somewhere, and if there is a bus involved in her plans, make sure your travel insurance is up to date.

Looking for a New Owner for Coopersville – A 64-Sim-Sized Community in Kitely

Greetings!

I'm looking for a new owner for Coopersville in Kitely — an Edwardian-themed community that spans a 64-sim-sized region. I’m shifting my focus toward updating and adding to my Four Winds store. There are only so many things I can give proper attention to. Coopersville deserves someone who can be a more active community owner and leader.

I plan to give it until the end of April to find someone to take over ownership. The new owner would take over on April 30th, 2025 including the monthly payment.

The monthly cost of $89.95 USD would be grandfathered in. The 64-sim-sized region has 150,000 prims and can support up to 80 avatars. It is not currently an "always-on" region, but that option is available should the new owner choose to upgrade.

All of the content that is currently on the region would remain there and would remain the property of the original owners. I won't delete anything but I would retain ownership of the buildings and landscaping because it's too difficult to change ownership with permissions and all. The new owner could continue using them indefinitely until or if they wish to replace them. I will give the new owner copies of all of the buildings that I created that are displayed in Coopersville with the exception of the content on the center Four Winds area which will be deleted.

On the north side of the region are 14 256x256 islands, all but 3 currently have renters. These islands rent for $5.00 USD per month or $1000 KC. I hope the new owner would continue offering island rentals for the sake of the current residents, but that’s completely up to them.

There are also 13 free homes around the perimeter of the main continent (in the southwest area of the region). All but one are currently occupied, and those homes are presently free for the residents — again, the new owner can decide how they want to handle that.

There is a large downtown area on the main continent. It has 19 shops that are currently free to the merchants occupying them. A 20th shop is by the ocean. The new owner can decide if they want to continue this.

Coopersville, although Edwardian themed, is not currently a roleplay region. The new owner could easily change it to roleplay. There are areas that are perfect for events too.

Please see the Coopersville website for more information: https://coopersville.mystrikingly.com. The rentals and free homes listed there are not currently up to date, but I will be updating them soon. I’ve also added a very large amusement park, along with horse trails and wooded areas, which are not yet reflected on the site. You can read more about them and Coopersville here: https://www.kitely.com/virtual-world/Koshari-Mahana/Cooper...

If you or someone you know might be interested in continuing the vision of Coopersville, please contact me by email at JenniSiri999@gmail.com.

If I cannot find a person to take ownership of Coopersville by April 30th it will be deleted. I truly hope that I can find a new owner.
