New release: Arcadia's Adams-Farwell Series 6.
This project took me two and a half months to finish, I'm proudly presenting to you a cute, rickety car to travel around sims and roads in relaxing rides solo or with friends.
The Adams-Farwell Series 6 was a 1906 car produced by the Adams-Farwell company. It featured a rear mounted rotary engine, very similar to airplane engines of it's time.
There’s still one functioning Series 6 in the world, you can see videos on YouTube of it running.
****************************************************************
Important:
This product will only work in ubODE, OS 9.2+ and either X or Y engine.
****************************************************************
My Series 6 has the following features:
1. Seats four avatars, the front seat will open automatically when a third avatar seats.
2. Each avatar has it's own pose that will change when you turn left or right.
3. Each pose are in fact a set of 3 poses, the car will try to guess you height and fire an appropriate pose for your avatar to make it look as best as possible.
4. A dynamic camera that switches between forward and reverse in all seats.
5. Custom sounds, sampled from the real car.
6. Unique mesh, carefully crafted and shaded to imitate the real car.
7. The engine has two gears, gear one while slow it will make the car able to climb almost any slope like a real car, if your car can’t negotiate a very steep slope just drop your gear to first and you will conquer the hill like a boss.
8. A menu on click that lets you operate the car’s accessories like lights, canopy and the capot, the car will remember the settings even if you recompile the script in mid operation.
9. Awareness of the sim/parcel to reset the dynamic camera for all passengers when you cross them so the driving experience remains un-compromised.
10. Custom stand targets on each sit, so you or any passenger won’t end standing on top of the car.
11. Access list, you can choose to let your car unlocked for everyone to drive or select a list of people that can drive, a white list.
You can get this new car at my main shop or the satellite store at Wright Plaza.
Happy Sunday!

OSG is back on line!
It's running on a new database, the migration was successful.
It also resumed the ingestion of assets of the old asset server.

New release: Arcadia's French Beret.
This is a mini release, I saw some days ago someone desperate to find french berets without any luck so I made one.
It's a simple, non rigged mesh so you can resize it as you want to fit your avatar properly, it comes in six colours including white so you can tint it to match your outfit.
Also as always the textures are in each beret to improve HG compatibility.
Happy Friday!

New Release: Arcadia's Timer.
I made this based on a suggestion (thanks Ernest!).
It's a simple timer that will do what any kitchen timer does, you setup the time (up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds) and it will count back to zero, when it reaches zero it will sound an alarm and that's it!
The object itself is a single, very light mesh so you can resize it to either put it in a tennis court or your fridge =D
It can be set to Owner only operation, group or everyone.
Of course the textures are inside for your customization needs.
Happy Tuesday!

New Release: Arcadia's Weather System
It's been a while heh.
Some weather change gives a lot of life to your sim, either a forest, a beach or a city, rain will infuse extra charm to your daily activities.
With that in mind let me present you my weather system, it's a controller of slave clouds that will emit rain particles, rain sounds and thunder sounds. But that's nothing new right?
My version also features up to two automatic rains per day, you set the time of the day and it will rain at those times for one hour. Nice huh?
Oh? Not enough? what if I told you it will also change your sky settings to overcast and cloudy while it's raining? Yep it does, assuming you have permissions to change the EEEP settings of your parcel it will make it overcast while raining and will return to your normal EEEP setting when stops.
Don't want to get cloudy? no problem! I also include a version that won't change your sky hehe.
Also, it features an access list, so either anyone or just a selected few will be able to operate the system.
Finally, please read the manual, I explain everything in detail, including the setup of the system.
Happy Friday! (yay Friday)

This took me a little while to make, it's not a new product but the consolidation of the look of the shop and related items.
I re-made the whole shop, with the familiar look it had before but a little bit more steampunkish, modern materials and I got it ready for future technologies like PBR materials.
It features an elevator now instead of the good ol' ramps and while it looks more or less the same size than before it holds a ton more space than before so my perpetual issue with space is over.
The beacon now is inside the shop for whom comes to the sim to choose another destination.
Also I made a new boxand refreshed every single product in the shop.
I'll release a new product soon now that this project that started in 2019 is finally complete.

New Release: Arcadia's Disco Floor.
This is a complement to the disco lights.
This' a single mesh object so you can resize it to fit your needs, it features different colours, light effects and animations to live up your dance place!
It's controlled by a HUD and most animations uses an analog lenticular effect that's unseen around, but also it features the classic dance floor look (shown in the picture).

Bug Fix: Arcadia's Weather System
I did an oopsie. Thanks Ernest for the heads up, I've found an error in the script of the weather system, both master EEP and non EEP versions. While they will work in y-engine they won't at all in x-engine so I fix them, the new version is at the shop and the mini shop of Wright Plaza, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Aaack.-

New Release: Arcadia's Zombie.
Because I -had- to make something for this coming Halloween, I decided to make a zombie.
It comes in three flavours:
1. Avatar: You can wear this one, it includes a moan box to randomly moan and groan and an AO (by lickx) with custom animations: a walk, two stands, a sit and a sit on ground.
2. NPC: The notecard with a moaning zombie, it also includes a basic walker but if you want to make it do advanced stuff, I recommend you to use Satyr's ActiveNPCs NPC Controller (https://opensimworld.com/library?view=4).
3. Animesh: Just rez these animated beauties to decorate your sim.
They are all different implementations of my mesh, animations and sounds, I just did the scripting work for you for the different uses. =)
Inside the folder you will find 4 boxes, one for the Avatar, one for the NPC, one for the Animesh and one containing all the textures, animations and sounds for your customization purposes.
Happy Wednesday!

All good things...
One day in 2019 I packed my stuff, got my dog, put it all on my bike and went to spend the summer in another country. That was my routine after all. I took my trusty laptop, an old mac that was barely enough to browse internet and may be log in world for a couple of minutes.
I spent a great month and then corona happened.
Long story short: I got stuck in that country, that's ok though, as long as I have internet I don't have to be in a specific physical place so I could cope, in time I just decided to live permanently here.
Then about a month and a half ago my hard disk of my old laptop isekai'd itself, my main rig is still in another country and suddenly I was data-less. Since this disk was meant to just handle light tasks it never stood a chance against real production work.
That set me back immensely, and that's the reason why I haven't been able to produce any new object in two months, so in the meantime I've been showcasing you the stuff I've made until that point in time.
But, I've a finite amount of stuff to show you! Of course I've more in the shop, did you know I have a cook hat, a drunken bat, a full bathroom set; did you know you can drink coffee at the top of the shop or eat cake at the tower?; did you know every night I mix music but I don't tell anyone?
But, I don't think what I have left is interesting enough so my daily articles ends today, but fret not! The reconstruction of my data is nearly complete so from this point on I'll publish an article when I release a new product because... I can make new products again! Yay me.
So cheers and thank you so much all the people who consistently liked my articles and commented on them, thank you for the visiting and for enjoying the toys I make for this adult playground we enjoy every day.
See you on my next release.

New Spooky Release: Arcadia's Armless Monster.
Inspired by the game Silent Hill, I made an Armless Monster.
It comes in two versions: NPC and Wearable.
It features custom animations for walking, standing, sitting and sitting on ground.
The wearable version includes an AO with the animations graciously provided by Lotek Ixtar.
The NPC version comes with a simple roaming object and the NPC card for if you want to use it with an NPC manager like the Satyr's ActiveNPCs NPC Controller (https://opensimworld.com/library?view=4).
You can get this monster at my main store or the satellite store at Wright Plaza@ OSG.
Happy Sunday!
P.S.: Of course, both versions vomits black goo from the chest =P

Did you know?
At my exhibition parcel on OSG's 15th. birthday you can find a beach party theme.
I made several object that are available only on that parcel for now, including:
A log with single and couple poses.
A recliner with single poses.
A battered apple box with single poses.
A cooler with soda cans and beer.
A barrel BBQ that gives burgers, hotdogs, corn on the cob and kabobs.
A simple fireplace.
A couple of beach counters.
The food will animate you and it'll disappear gradually as you consume it.
Every animation, mesh, script, texture and sound was made by myself, in order to celebrate the creativity of the grid I call home.

New release: Arcadia's Bunny kit.
This one took me a while to make.
For you, bunny girls and bunny boys, I made a kit of ears and tail.
They are animesh, they come in three sizes and five colours (including white, so you can tint them to match your avatar's look perfectly), they animate, when you stand, when you walk and when you run/fly.
You can choose between seven poses, do you want them straight up? One folded? both forward? or you can choose to animate them at random on random intervals (or custom time intervals too!)
It's all controlled by a HUD, and since it's animesh you can re-position the ears and tail.
The tail will randomly wiggle too.
Enjoy!

Data transfer status.
Do you remember a post I made some time ago, about assets missing due a day transfer?
Let me tell you the full story because I got a post that's a bit too angry and a bit too misinformed for my taste.
Originally OSG was mostly on a datacentre on Texas, at first it was good, but it got progressively more and more inadequate for the grid, do you remember two years ago that we had a weekly outage? Or sudden grid downs that used to last 24 hours?
It was time to move the whole grid to new pastures and they did! The total data was transferred to a better datacetre, the transference was brutal though, we're talking about millions upon millions of tiny files, it took months to transfer all that and they managed to do it with the grid running. Of course there was side effects, slowness to rez, extended times to see the textures appear, etc. A small price to pay compared to the alternative: shut down the grid for a couple of months.
Some days ago I was told the current status of the last server move, the one with oldest assets, most notably 1+ year old textures and notecards.
The good news: the transfer is done, it took about a month.
I was told not once, not twice but several times: No data was lost.
"So where are my textures?"
This is the current situation: While the data is already transferred it's the equivalent of moving, we have all the boxes into the new house, now it's time to unbox and arrange our stuff in the empty space.
That last server had about 168 million assets.
The program that the guys wrote specifically to ingest the data into the new server process about 1.6 million assets per day, plus they're verifying the integrity of each bit (thanks to that they had corrected/recover 4854 assets so far), the whole process assuming 1.3 million assets processed and ingested per day will take between 90 to 120 days from today.
I asked if this will cause lag or poor performance: No, this process happens on a separate server, and it's independent of the rest of the grid, so it won't impact performance.
No data has been lost, but many is still in the box, waiting to be put in the proper place.
Is it a bummer? of course it is, all my profile pictures (all of them are 1+ year old) are gone, white. I won't delete them because they will be back.
Finally this process is progressive, it means that as the data gets processed it becomes available, my pic today is white but tomorrow may be back, as it reaches its's turn in the queue.
So don't despair, we're in the final stretch.
Do you remember a post I made some time ago, about assets missing due a day transfer?
Let me tell you the full story because I got a post that's a bit too angry and a bit too misinformed for my taste.
Originally OSG was mostly on a datacentre on Texas, at first it was good, but it got progressively more and more inadequate for the grid, do you remember two years ago that we had a weekly outage? Or sudden grid downs that used to last 24 hours?
It was time to move the whole grid to new pastures and they did! The total data was transferred to a better datacetre, the transference was brutal though, we're talking about millions upon millions of tiny files, it took months to transfer all that and they managed to do it with the grid running. Of course there was side effects, slowness to rez, extended times to see the textures appear, etc. A small price to pay compared to the alternative: shut down the grid for a couple of months.
Some days ago I was told the current status of the last server move, the one with oldest assets, most notably 1+ year old textures and notecards.
The good news: the transfer is done, it took about a month.
I was told not once, not twice but several times: No data was lost.
"So where are my textures?"
This is the current situation: While the data is already transferred it's the equivalent of moving, we have all the boxes into the new house, now it's time to unbox and arrange our stuff in the empty space.

New release: Arcadia's Spitoon.
A spitoon is a vase, normally made of metal used in bars and public places where chewing tobacco was a thing. It was meant for users of the tobacco to spit in the used thing, gross don't even begin to describe it.
My version is a beaten, old copper one you can rez as a joke, click on it to hear a cartoonish sound of a spit pinging the metal vase =D
Nothing says Xmas like a run down copper vase full of spit, yep yep.
Happy Sunday!

New release: Arcadia's Gramophone
I made a very well preserved gramophone for your house, a great decoration that will dress your living space.
But hey, you know me, I can't do a static object, so I also scripted it so when you click on it it winds up and plays "Volver" (super famous Argentina tango) by Carlos Gardel (the most famous tango singer in Argentina and may be the world), sung circa 1935, so it's very much period correct.
Of course I'm including all the textures inside the object to improve the compatibility with HG.
You can find my gramophone at the main shop or the mini shop at Wright Plaza in OSG.
Happy Monday!

New Release: Sol et Luna, a steampunk watch.
This time I made a simple wrist watch, it obviously shows the time but also the date in an unconventional way.
The wrist band can be either brown or black, it's controlled by a menu that appears on click and it comes for system avatars and ruth v2/4.
You can resize it to make it fit properly on your avatar and as always all the textures are included for your customisation needs.
Don't forget to read the manual.
Happy Saturday!

| | CyberGlo CyberStar: That watch is absolutely beautiful! A gorgeous masterpiece, I love it! A true work of art. Sadly I cannot come and get one as I am banned from osgrid, however, if you ever create your own grid, let... 9 months ago |

Product Update: Arcadia's Simulator Statistics Indicator
In my permanent quest for relevant information I've noticed that my Statistics Indicator last line, Time Dilation, didn't really show the relevant number, it was stuck on 1.0 (no time dilation) permanently, so I've changed that last line for something more relevant, the physics engine type (ODE, Bullet, ubODE) and the script engine type (X-Engine or Y-Engine).
The upgraded indicator is at the first floor (or second floor for you in the US) of my main shop.

New Release: Arcadia's Tiki gazebo.
Phew!
This one was a LONG project that started before my hard drive died.
It features a small and cozy gazebo for your beach setup, it seats four in solo poses or couple poses using SFPoser.
It took me a long while as i made all ~50 poses myself, so each one is unique for you.
It also features a small source of light in the form of candles you can turn on and off in the OPTIONS menu.
Please read the manual for more details.
Happy Tuesday!

Did you know?
I ran out of space!
I remember when I decided to use the old triangular building for my shop I thought "How in the world will I fill this monster?" Welp, by making stuff for years! That's how.
So, I decided to move some stuff to the demo rezzers, all my vehicles. That would free some space. I made an hangar for it, big enough to have all the vehicles inside and have some spare room for future ones too!
Then I thought "I would like it to have doors, gigantic gates because all the hangars I've saw so far don't have any doors"; I made a 4 pane sliding doors that took me for ever to script to make it work regardless if you resize or reposition the whole building.
Then I decided to add a small door too, for when you want to enter and not open the whole thing, but also I wanted to have the access restricted if needed: for the owner, the group or just open to everyone, done! it only took the life of the last 3 neurones I had yay!
Add some automatic lightning spent 4 days baking textures and let's go, I have an hangar now.
Finally I thought "Hey, this looks pretty, I need to share it!" , so...
New Release: Arcadia's Hangar.
It has all what I said above so there's no much description I can add here LOL, that's what happens when I write something before my coffee.
