**1 Year Anniversary of Starchild Shoppe: NEW LOCATION!**
1 year ago Starchild Shoppe opened its doors with a single furniture store. Since then it has expanded beyond what I could have imagined! I want to thank every single person who has crossed its door and has taken the time to thank the effort behind!
I have also heard your feedback, it is why I have consolidated all the stores into their own region with a central store (beauty) at ground, and then skyboxes reachable via the TP board. Super special thanks to Shan Naggins for making it happen! What was going to be just one new store, ended up being an entire mall set up with much more room for growth!

**Dali Babe LARAX Megapack OUT NOW!**
Aaaand here comes the LaraX megapack of the Dali Babe body skin packs!
...which I thought was the last, but there's non-LaraX, Maitreya (Athena) 5.3 too..
This one does not come with a shape, so just use your body default one.
As with the others: Comes in 3 different body styles, 22 tones each, and TONS of add-ons!

Zoey Cutey: Did you say you would do Athena petite? I can't get to your older pages, something up with OSW :P. TY for all your hard work! 23 hours ago
Hi folks, I have received a few questions today regarding the body skins I shared (i.e. do they work for EvoX, why no face, etc.)
There's a README inside the pack with some details but a few more details:

1. Body skins generally use the .skin type of item and they only contain Upper and Lower.
1.1. The textures are mapped to the body (especially in places like toes, butts, etc. - hence why those would look weird if used in another body).
2. Face skins generally use the .tattoo type, precisely so that you can 'bake/add' it ON TOP of the .skin of the body (of which [.skin] you cand only wear one).
2.2 The face textures are mapped to the head (Evo, EvoX or others).

In this sense, they are NOT connected (you could wear Legacy and....Catwa as head!), and seldom if ever do body skin come with a face skin (Have NEVER seen that, imagine they come with a Catwa head and you use EvoX, or come with Evo and you use a EvoX head!).

The can be 'related' as far as the skin tone goes (i.e. some body skin creators have a set of tones to which face skins creators try to adhere).
Either way, that's what the neck-fix included (only for EvoX, though) are for. If you can't 100% match the tone, add the fix or the face blender.

The .shape file is also important if you want the default shape. However, you can only wear ONE .shape.
If you 'add' it, it will replace the one you got with your face (and mess the shape).
So, in SL (or even here, if properly here), if you were to start a new avi you would get:

1. The shape [.shape] and eyebrows [.hair] that come with the head. Let's say EON EvoX = You can almost ditch these ones unless you are going with the 'demo'/free face skin that comes with the head.
2. The shape [.shape] that comes with legacy body = You can also almost ditch this one, unless you are going with the 'demo'/free body skin of the body.
3. The shape [.shape] and eyebrows [.hair] that come with the face skin. Let's say EROS (for EON EvoX) = These ones you keep, and will probably the ones you use.
4. The shape [.shape] that comes with the body skin. Let's say Jupiter Muscled TAN tone. = This you want to keep, but just for the values.

1 and 2 don't really have much 'value', they are: 'shape-you-can-use-if-you-dont-add-any-skins-from-creators'. EVEN if you wanted to stick to those, you would need to transfer the body shape values to the shape that come with the head.
ALWAYS combine them.
Why? Because the values (numbers) in the shape of the head are specific values that the face/head skin creator has added so that it looks like in the piiiicz.
Now, legacy creator couldn't possible know those...so if you rely on their shape of the head values...well...it will look BAD.
Body-values-on-head-shape is also because there are less amount of cells/numbers pertaining to body.

NOW, if you got yourself (hopefully) an additional face skin (eg. EROS) and body skin (eg. Jupiter Muscled TAN), you want to merge and use those two.
Why? Because the values relative to the head in EROS will make it look like in the pic, and the values relative to the body in Jupiter, will make it look like in the pic.

So:
- You add the shape of Jupiter just to take the number values on Body+Torso+Leg tabs.
- You switch into the EROS shape, and replace Body, Torso, and Legs with those values.

Result: Your face will look like in the skin pic you bought, and so will your body.

RECAP: .skin for body skins + .tattoo for face skins. Leverage neckblends. Ditch default body/head shapes. Use skin shape as basis, add body skin shape values.

FAIRE SA PROPRE RÉGION AUTONOME POUR SE BALADER EN HYPERGRID
(avec un minimum de manipulations !!! )

1 - Il faut télécharger opensim-0.9.3.0.zip sur http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Main_Page

2 - opensim 0.9.3.0 demande .NET version 8 ! à télécharger ici :
https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-applaunch?framework=Microsoft.N...

3 - Pour être en mode "Grille" simple (Standalone sans ROBUST) avec HyperGrid, dans le fichier OpenSim.ini tout à la fin vers la ligne 1356 il faut avoir ça :
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/Standalone.ini"
Include-Architecture = "config-include/StandaloneHypergrid.ini"
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/Grid.ini"
; Include-Architecture = "config-include/GridHypergrid.ini"
Commenter la ligne 1356 et décommenter la suivante (commenter = mettre le point-virgule ';' au début de la ligne, décommenter = l'enlever)

4 - Dans bin/config-include il faut renommer GridCommon.ini.example en GridCommon.ini

5 - Toujours dans bin/config-include dans StandaloneCommon.ini décommenter la ligne 50 pour avoir :
GatekeeperURI = "${Const|BaseURL}:${Const|PublicPort}"
*

(Ce qui fait 3 changements dans les lignes des .ini !)

Enfin en étant dans le dossier opensim/bin, lancer le serveur OpenSim.exe !
Bien valider l'alertes du pare feu pour opensim.exe, sinon il faudra aller le faire manuellement dans les paramètres.
Des lignes vont défiler puis normalement ça doit poser des questions (nom de la grille, de la région, du user ...)

Pour la connexion :
- Dans le NAT de la box il faut ouvrir les ports 9000 et 9001 tcp et udp (dans le doute on ouvre tcp ET udp)
- Ajouter localhost:9000 dans la config opensim de Firestorm !

BINGO ! on peut se connecter avec le user défini plus haut et partir dans l'HyperGrid !!
Et s'envoyer des objets et même en faire des sauvegardes (IAR) aussi.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cette configuration minimal ne permettra surement pas d'avoir des visites ou bien de pouvoir revenir après une téléportation en HG mais comme le but est d'avoir une base pour se promener dans l'HG ça ne devrait pas être trop génant.

Mais voici les compléments de config à faire si on veut plus s'approcher d'une grille "normale", aux points notés plus haut par un *

*OPTIONS
- Pour permettre des visites facielement sons devoir indiquer le nom de la région il faut dans StandaloneCommon.ini ligne 114 :
Region_Nom_de_Votre_Region = "DefaultRegion, DefaultHGRegion, FallbackRegion"
(en remplaçant les éventuels espaces dans le nom par des 'soulignés' _
Dans le dossier opensim/bin/regions il faut modifier la ligne ExternalHostName = SYSTEMIP par votre IP externe ( http://whatismyip.com ) ou un domaine ou sous domaine pointant dessus.

- Si vous ne voulez pas garder le nom de la grille par défaut ( "the lost continent of hippo" ) modifier les lignes 229 et 232 dans StandaloneCommon.ini

- Après pour avoir les groupes et les messages ... il y a d'autres modifs à faire dans opensim.ini
Infos ici : https://sheikah.org/install-opensim-0-9-3-0-in-hypergrid-s... (made by @Ludo_Davis !)
Chercher "Edit OpenSim.ini"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dépannage:
- Bien vérifier dans les Paramètres réseau et Internet de Windows que la carte réseau est en profil de Réseau privé !
- Des infos pour ouvrir les ports selon votre Box Internet : https://support.safebrands.com/ouvrir-le-port-8443-sur-sa-...
- Si vous avez cette erreur lors d'un TP HG :
Teleport falled Cant teleport to a regjon on same map position. Try going to another reyon first. then retry trom there
Dans le dossier OpenSim/bin/Regions editez votre fichier Regions.ini ligne 3 Location = 1000,1000 et changez légerement ces coordonnées, comme 1010,1010 et relancez OpenSim.

**Dali Babe MAITREYA (ATHENA) Body Skin Megapack Now!**
Hi everyone, last on the line of Megapacks: Maitreya 5.3 (Athena) version of the body skins.
Same 3 styles and ALL addons - this one does come in 'only' 15 of the 22 tones, though.
As with LaraX one, it does not include any shape, so you can just use your default body one.

Xmas Market 2024 @ Eternal Ice


FinjaFlux: Let's have some eggnog at Bink's Xmas Market! Cheers! 21 days ago
Tout droit sorti des Ateliers Atlas, qui se déroulent tous les lundis, cela ressemble à un distributeur de confiseries. Mais celui-livre ses chocolats aux avatars depuis une page web où ils passent commande. Est-ce le début d'une free marketplace, comme cela a existé brièvement sur Second Life, mais cette fois sur l'hypergrid ? Les obstacles sont nombreux, mais nous ne désespérons pas.

This vending machine delivers objects from the web, or tries to. Delivering over the hypergrid is a tough task, may require augmenting the codebase and may not be possible in all cases, like when the grid has no knowledge of the recipient.

Things I come across...

The rebuilding and restoration of the Notre-Dame de Paris is taking place not only in real life, but also on the hypergrid, where artist Hicks Adder is working on a dazzling replica. The ornamentation, structural arches, and foundation are quite complex, and it is a joy to watch the progress.

To be continued.

Jared Seda: Super Excited!!!! 8 days ago
The excitement of turning a dream into reality. It begins as a spark of imagination, a vivid mental picture of a breathtaking world—perhaps a misty mountain range, an alien landscape, or a bustling medieval city. This dream is like the first stroke of inspiration for an artist.

When you start building, the blank OpenSim region becomes your canvas, a digital palette where each prim, texture, and script is a brushstroke. The process is exhilarating as you shape the terrain, paint the sky with colors and clouds, and breathe life into your vision. You sculpt cliffs, plant forests, and carve rivers, adding details that make your world not just beautiful but immersive.

What makes OpenSim even more thrilling is its ability to provide massive land sizes without the prohibitive costs of other virtual platforms like Second Life. The expansive landscapes give creators room to explore their wildest ideas, unburdened by financial constraints. This freedom fuels creativity, allowing for sprawling builds that are limited only by the creator’s imagination.

There's also a sense of discovery as the imagined meets the possible. You experiment with elements—adjusting lighting for a perfect sunset, scripting interactive elements, or adding soundscapes that make the environment hum with life. The joy of creation is heightened when the imagined dream surpasses your expectations and becomes a place where others can explore, share, and marvel.

Building in OpenSim is not just crafting pixels; it’s the act of creation in its purest form—a thrilling dance between imagination and realization, where the limits are only bound by the extent of your dreams.

This is an excellent place to start:

I am excited to roll out premium housing in our new Roads sims. These parcels are 10,000 meters or up and have waterfront views of Little Willow Bay. The parcels are on named roads, in a neighborhood, and connected to thousands of kilometers of connected roadways, including Cloudburst Roads, Rouge Vineyards, and the Neverworld National Forest. These homesites are available to Neverworlders ONLY, so you know your neighbors all live here full-time.
Parcels are free.
Each parcel comes with house rezzers of upgraded design. You are welcome to decorate your home and parcel as you wish in keeping with the coastal theme. Generous prim limits and an amazing opportunity to join our exclusive Roads community. You must join the Never Riders Group to obtain a parcel. It is a closed group... if you are not a member just ask any admin and we will send you an invite.

* After cleaning the roads, and the main castles and inns entries, the group went back to the farm and stocked as much as possible to fill up the storages for the winter (Max, Mina, Steve, Justin, Anniera). While at the farm, Mina who had lost her memory, remembered who she was, and Max the future King reminded her their past relationship and propose to her! (She agreed !)
* Asad tricked Mina to follow him, abducting her. Max, Steve and Justin went to her rescue, and found her and Asad stuck high on the red mountains. While saving Mina, Asad escaped.
* Steve went to see Justin to discuss the creation of a Knighthood based on Honor, Respect and chivalry : The Realm's Knights!
* An investigation about dragons behavior lead to the conclusion:
--Dragons are passive when not attacked so far (when not hungry), so dont attack them. Lets find their food source.
