It also resumed the ingestion of assets of the old asset server.

P.S.: I modded the image a bit to make it less scary xD

All my best wishes to all for the New Year. I hope that mentalities will change on Opensimulator, because we have to help each other rather than go to war, many forget that. I only understand that on opensimulator, network or sim owners can ban an entire grid without first Trying to contact the administrators, of course a resident can mess things up, but then why punish the whole network? Even in rl we do not see this, the mentality on Opensimulator has really changed a lot in recent years !!

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!

Well, since I made the "Enchanted" section at the shop, I feel like I need to put new things in it. This always happens, I end up on a theme for a while (cough, cough polar bears).

So, I give you Magical Mushrooms (no, not those kind of mushrooms, that's another theme).

These Fungi have the power to be tree size and come in several variations including versions with 2 spore color choices.
All the textures are in the box for those who like to customize :).

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 Xmas Candles

This is a small decoration for your Xmas table, a nice place with candles, hollow leaves and berries and a festive bow. It's meant to be a simple decoration that cast a nice and warm light when you click on it.

Enjoy my last xmas object of the year and happy Thursday!

I Plead The Fifth
Knit cap and headphones? I get that. It's cold and, instead of ear muffs, you have "hear" muffs. Biker glasses. Um, OK. A thin robe, almost entirely open and with apparently nothing on underneath? Wait. What? I thought it was cold out. I'm confused. Open-toed platform shoes! You ask, "who in hell put this outfit together?

I plead the fifth.

Oh HELLO: Now conveniently located real close to the Xinashi landing zone, and far, far away, I hope, from the fashion police.

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!

HERE TO ANNOY ONCE MORE.
Some guy was annoyed by my posts about outfits I assemble. Sorry darling, these clothes aren't for you. Anyways, the grid was down for a bit and is now back. Assembling outfits to annoy easily annoyed guys is happening again!

oh HELLO: Inspired by Fashionista. Accessible to all.

Avoiding Being Naked In Public.
In some cultures, if someone praises something you have, you should give it to them. I often get praise about my outfits, which means that I could often end up naked, even right out in public! oh HELLO helps me avoid this predicament. I can say, "Like what I'm wearing? You can get free it at my shop."

(I don't know. Maybe they want to see me naked? Too bad, so sad).

Well, this is an outfit even I am praising myself about! I added a jacket to a dress that has a silver-colored corset and also added thigh-high boots with silver accents. The accessories and hair perfectly compliment the look. Compliments! Nice.

I should mention that this is a past group gift. Get it, the current, and all other past group gifts (11 in total) by means of a clever scheme -- that is, joining the Friends of Xinashi group. It's a great way to be alerted to new outfits in the shop.

oh HELLO: We help you avoid being naked in public.

Schloss Versailles ist eines der größten Schlösser in Europa und wurde ab 1661 immer weiter ausgebaut..
Der barocke Prachtbau gehört mittlerweile zum Weltkulturerbe.

Im Soul Grid hat Udo Fröhliche den Original Bauplan aus dem 16. Jahrhundert genommen und das Fundament mit Prims und Meshes nachgebaut. Auf den Fassaden und den Innenräumen befinden sich Texturen, die das Original darstellen. Viele Teile sind im Eigenbau entstanden.
Die Innenreinrichtung ist atemberaubend schön und täuschend echt.

Fertig gestellt sind bis jetzt das Entree, der Aufgang , Vorzimmer, Spiegelsaal und die beiden Schlafzimmer von König und Königin. Weitere Räume werden mit der Zeit folgen. Es wird so eine never ending Story :-)

Die weitläufigen königlichen Gartenanlagen hat Alice Wunder gestaltet

Die Meisterin des Landschaften hat hier die Symmetrie des damaligen Gartenbaus unvergleichlich schön dem Original nachempfunden.

Wir sind stolz dieses Projekt mit einem würdigen Event einweihen zu dürfen.

Deswegen laden wir euch ganz herzlich am 23.12.2021 ab 20:00 Uhr zu einem
hochherrschaftlichen Weihnachtsball im Spiegelsaal des Chateau Versailles ein .

Wer mag kann die Gewänder des Barock tragen und seiner Angebeteten oder seinem Angebeteten beim Menuett die Hand reichen.
Wer nicht mag, erscheint trotzdem und lauscht den Klängen morderner Musik, wenn Hofdame Nasti auflegt.

Damit es eine Überraschung bleibt, werden wir erst kurz vor der Veranstaltung eine Region hier anlegen.

Castle Versailles is one of the largest castles in Europe and was continuously expanded from 1661 onwards.
The magnificent baroque building is now a part of World Heritage.
In the Soul Grid, Udo Fröhliche took the original blueprint from the 16th century and rebuilt the foundation with prims and meshes. On the facades and interiors there are textures that represent the original. Many parts were made in-house.

The interior design is stunningly beautiful and deceptively real.

So far, the entrance, the staircase, anteroom, hall of mirrors and the two bedrooms of king and queen have been completed. More rooms will follow over time. It will be such a never ending story :-)
Alice Wunder has designed the extensive royal gardens

We are proud to inaugurate this project with a worthy event.

That's why we cordially invite you to a 23.12.2021 from 20:00 o'clock to a
a stately Christmas ball in the Hall of Mirrors of the Chateau Versailles.

If you like, you can wear the robes of the Baroque and shake hands with your beloved at the minuet.
If you don't like it, still appear and listen to the sounds of modern music when Lady Nasti spins the tunes.
To keep it as a surprise, we will open the OSW Region shortly before the Event starts

CUTE...BUT NOT TOO CUTE.
To my taste, kitty clothes can be too cute. Well, to my mind, this outfit is cute, but not too. Admittedly, there are the kitty sweaters (you get 2), the kitty necklace, the rings with all kinds of stuff, but darn it -- there's a kitty on it too. The pants? Line drawings of kitties. But then there are the boots. No kitties there! Just a pirate skull & crossbones...a cute skull & crossbones. Damn. But hey, that's only on one of the 8 pairs of boots in the fat-pack. What kind of boots? You had to ask. Cute freaky flat wellies, aka Puddle boots...

CUTE...BUT NOT ALL KITTIES!
