It’s not Sunday, but apparently DJ Jim doesn’t need an excuse. 🤠🎶
It’s cold and yucky outside, we’re hanging out at the Smash, and Jim decided to fire up the music. So consider this an unscheduled, informal set happening right now! Come dance, hang out, try your luck on Buck Eye the mechanical bull, or just pull up a chair and enjoy the music. Country is home base, but Jim has a pretty broad playlist, so you never quite know what might turn up. Everyone is welcome. Come as you are and stay as long as you like!

Working on a project with Lone Wolf from WT: it`a 20x20 VAR region with the (so far) the highest mountain found on opensim (the peak found is 901 meters O.o@@@@!! it `s a SIM connetected north from TROMSO called SENJA (from Senja mountains in Norway). but unsure about the name - or maybe redo the Tromso into it. SIM is opened for visitations but not much many things built there yet just a bunch of trees, a harbor and a medieval viking church (Stavkirk).If you want to come , u will need to use Wolfviewer or Wolfstorm though as from the normal FS u will crash (reason is because FS built for SL and SL dont have VAR regions, not evben the monster-var we have now on opensim). but if u using the correect viewer, welcome and try to climb to the summit!

🎃🦇 **Halloween bei BK-Mode** 🦇🎃

Wenn die Nächte länger werden und die Schatten lebendig, wird es Zeit, die dunkle Seite des eigenen Styles zu zeigen. 🖤

Vier Avatare, vier ganz eigene Looks – von düster und extravagant über geheimnisvoll bis höllisch lässig. Ob mit Fledermausflügeln, Spinnenbeinen, Rosen oder im blutigen Skelett-Look: Hier trifft dunkle Eleganz auf eine ordentliche Portion Wahnsinn. 😈

Und seien wir ehrlich: Wer sagt eigentlich, dass an Halloween nur die Geister für Gänsehaut sorgen dürfen? 😉

Also, macht euch bereit für eine Nacht voller dunkler Blicke, frecher Styles und einer Prise gepflegtem Schrecken. Denn bei diesem Anblick bekommen selbst die Monster Konkurrenz! 💀🔥

**BK-Mode wünscht euch ein schaurig-schönes Halloween!** 🕷️🖤

Coming to you at 6am PDT/SLT/OST/Grid Time, 2 hours of fun, laughter and banter, kicking off your Saturday with a bang!, come one, come all, all are welcome to come and join in party and have fun!

Take the high trail to the Fire Lookout. Follow the trail up past the signs for Stone Bowl Pond and Silver Veil Falls to climb into the pines for one of the best views in Sanctuary Canyon. Even with areas under construction on the sim, the trails are open for hiking or horseback riding, so take your time and see where the mountain leads!

Hi Everybody! I want to invite you to join me Today, SATURDAY, Sep. 17th some fantastic OSFest entertainment!

Lets wind down from all the partying and roller coaster rides and experience how peaceful a walk in the park with the latest Horse script (now at release 3.3.0081 for UBOde) really is.
Riding the horse as a vehicle is the very best horse(back) riding experience to date. No more gliding off hills. Physically jumping is fun too.
Start your trip at EAS at the East side of Neiferleaf and walk the trail via Nestir where you can excercise physical jumping and barrel racing, the walk via the Northorn region towards Neiferleaf's castle, but beware of dragons and ghost riders.

Start your trip at hop://grid.vibel.eu:8002/Eas/328/458/34 and enjoy the ride.

The Weekend is here! You can stay up late - no school tomorrow - but The Big Boss Man got some OLD School Disco - Try out your new costume tonight or wear nothing at all! Its all cool at The 4 Seasons Saloon. 10 Pm - Midnight SLT

DreamGrid statistics from the last 9 months:

39,918 regions hosted

250,962 standard Second Life-sized region equivalents

For comparison, Second Life has approximately 54,760 standard-sized region equivalents at the high end.

That's an extraordinary amount of virtual land supported by DreamGrid installations!

You will notice our website is inactive, that is because we are transitioning to Joomla 4. fingers crossed 6.2 is coming, its been a bit quiet. But in order for 6.2 you have to update to 4 first.

I got it successfully on Joomla 4, now we have to get it looking like a website and re enable plugins/modules one by one so we dont crash the site. The previous template we used isn't compatible with 4.

Chat gpt was a big help in helping me figure out which plugin was causing the MysqliDriver::query() error, since its deprecated in 4.

This also means no new members at this time.

I’m about to make an unpopular post — not because it’s cruel, but because it breaks the narratives people cling to. And today, I’m breaking them.

TLDR: Just download Wolf Viewer, come get a free account, and see!

I’m on Wolf Territories now. Before that, I spent years in a certain non‑hypergrid virtual world starting in 2006. I left for over a decade because it was too expensive and too technically demanding. When I returned, I found myself boxed in again — prim limits, permission limits, high costs, and almost no free resources. I limped along.

Then I went to OSCC in Nov 2020. I saw the educators who had already escaped the old world. They had better avatars, better tools, better environments. One of them showed me around, and that was it — I was home.

I’m an educator with 32 years of consulting experience and Fortune‑level clients. That old world once helped me build a business presence that made serious money from 2007–2010. Even with restrictions, we proved what could be done.

But my criteria have always been different from the average hypergrid resident:
- Tech first. Support first.
- Community optional.
- Forward motion mandatory.
- No grid‑owner celebrity cults.
- I am a customer, not a worshipper.

These are my standards. They won’t fit everyone, and that’s fine.
Wolf Territories met them. More than met them. This grid is not just ahead — it’s operating on enterprise infrastructure with boutique pricing. And no, it’s not free. You cannot get 14 servers, dual object storage, and active development for free. You cannot get Fortune‑grade tech leadership for free. You cannot get enterprise internet for free.

And yet, it is STILL affordable. Especially compared to that unnamed world.

Our grid owner isn’t trying to be a clone of the unnamed world. He’s demonstrating real tech capability, just like I used to do for my clients.

And now, in just the last few months, Wolf Territories has rolled out features that fundamentally change what OpenSim can be:
1) Wolf Viewer
A new, security‑focused viewer built for modern infrastructure — not legacy assumptions.

2) Accessibility Tools
Real tools for teaching, learning, and play. Actual accessibility baked into the platform.

3) True Gaming Systems
A built‑in framework for real game mechanics — not hacked scripts or half‑solutions. Actual game development inside OpenSim.

4) Integrated Mixer & Broadcasting
Music, DJing, podcasting — all native. No external tools. No duct tape. Just seamless creation and broadcast.

5) Environmental & Vehicle Systems
- Clouds, water waves, surfing, real system water on a prim, and proper vehicle controls:
* Cars
* Planes
* Submarines
* Ships
* Boats
* Helicopters
Not “sort of works if you’re lucky.” Actual physics. Actual control.

6) Free Inworld Office Space, Inworld Shops, and Streams for residents!
Land owners get these things regardless of plot size.

7) Built‑In Compass
Added because one very directionally challenged individual begged for it. (You’re welcome.)

8) Terrain Painting & Built‑In Weather System + EEP
Region lighting and weather that can match nearly any real‑world location. Snow and rain use particles — not mesh. Snow accumulates on the ground while it’s falling. You can paint your terrain instead of using the texture pallet - which you can still do.

9) AI Integration (Unparalleled)
On‑ground AI that can:
- Write accurate LSL
- Run AI NPCs with spontaneous, natural conversation
- Assist with teaching, roleplay, creativity
- And anything else you think of — Lone will likely build it

10) Extreme Terrain Capability
Mountains up to over 800m high. Depths down to 100m below water.

11) Incredibly generous prim packages
Up to 12M prims….because there are now 1000x1000 VAR regions (and yes, THOSE are EXPENSIVE)

12) Generous complexity for mesh uploads

13) Incredibly high reliability / uptime
Enterprise stability. Not hobby‑grade.

14) Enterprise-level security
- A far more secure viewer
- A control panel for land owners
- OAR uploads on demand and checked for being secure and virus-free
- No requirements for approval of new accounts - because that is not a security issue for this grid

Every day, Lone releases something new — for fun, for education, for creativity.
And that is why I am here.
Not because it is free or nearly free.
Not because it is the cheapest or the most expensive (because it is not).
Not because I’m friends with Lone Wolf… AND I AM.
Not because I am required to volunteer… AND I DO.
I am here because Wolf Territories is affordable, best value, technology‑advanced, and has a great community. Come and download Wolf Viewer, get a free account, and start REALLY LIVING in a virtual world!
