Please do not take items from the SimGear store or the store with opensim collars/scripts and place them in your own store. I already see these items in another store.

There are only a few people authorized to distribute SimGear products and spax has requestion that others dont just take the items to place in there own store. It is also in a notecard in all the boxes.

Opensim collars will have at least one more update, but to limit outdated collars across opensim, please do not just take the items to put in your own store. Even tho i didn't make the scripts or collars, I have permission from the creator to distribute the items and do the work to update them when an update rolls out. I did take time and effort to provide all of this for everyone to enjoy.

♥ Grand Opening ♥ Crystal Grid Ballroom ♥
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to a place where the sky is not above us… but dances with us.
Tonight, at 13.00 SLT, we proudly inaugurate the Crystal Grid Ballroom, a space that is not merely architecture, but vision.
Lift your eyes: a constellation of stars embraces us, transforming this hall into an intimate universe suspended between dream and reality.
At the center, a majestic light like a full moon watches over us, radiating harmony.
Beneath it, the polished floor reflects every movement, as if each step were destined to leave an eternal trace.
The elegant arches surrounding us speak of prestige and grandeur.
The greenery that adorns them breathes life into the space.
And at the far end, that deep red curtain… a promise of music, passion, and living art.
The Crystal Grid Ballroom was created to be a sanctuary of romance and beauty.
Here, hands will intertwine, glances will meet, and emotions will ignite.
Here, music will not simply be heard it will be felt.
Every event that comes to life upon that stage will tell a story.
Every dance upon this luminous floor will become a silent dialogue between hearts.
Every reflection of light will be a fragment of shared magic.
This evening at 13:00 SLT, under the elegant artistic direction of Luna Nera, the ballroom will take its very first breath. Its first heartbeat. Its first memory.
We warmly invite you to join us in great numbers, for the true magic of this place comes alive through your presence, your energy, and your spirit.
To honor the refinement and majesty of the Crystal Grid Ballroom, formal and elegant attire is kindly requested.
Let your garments reflect the brilliance of the stars above us and help make this evening truly unforgettable.
The Crystal Grid Ballroom is an invitation to experience art, to celebrate love, to surrender to music beneath a sky of stars.
May this be only the beginning of countless extraordinary nights.
Welcome to the light.
Welcome to the dream.
Welcome to the Crystal Grid Ballroom.

BK‑Mode: Virtuell, vielseitig, unverwechselbar

BK‑Mode ist der Ort, an dem Outfits nicht einfach „ausgesucht“ werden – sie finden dich. Ganz ohne Laufsteg, ohne Drama und ohne Mode‑Philosophie. Hier zählt nur, was gut aussieht und deinem Avatar genau den Ausdruck gibt, den du heute haben willst.

Ob entspannt, frech, seriös oder irgendwo dazwischen: BK‑Mode hat immer etwas, das passt. Und das, was du gerade siehst, ist tatsächlich nur ein kleiner Vorgeschmack der vielen Neuheiten, die im Shop auf dich warten. Die komplette Auswahl ist deutlich größer – und sie wächst schneller, als man „Inventar sortieren“ sagen kann.

Virtuell bleibt alles, aber der Effekt ist erstaunlich real: Ein neues Outfit, ein neuer Vibe, und plötzlich wirkt dein Avatar wie die Version von dir, die du schon immer mochtest – nur jetzt sichtbar.

Oh my gosh, Valentine's clothing is absolutely dazzling this year, and you won't believe the treasures waiting! From Xara/LaraX and Legacy's stunning gowns to Simona/Athena's and don't forget the Dinkies exquisite dresses, every detail screams romance and elegance. Don't forget the perfect complementary jewellery to complete your look, all available now at Vesti's Seasons Store or The Shops Region for your Legacy! It's time to truly sparkle and make hearts flutter with your perfect festive ensemble!
hg.trianon-world.com:18002:Vesti For Men's Ares and Apollo Women's Xara and Simona &Dinkies
hg.trianon-world.com:18002:The Shops for Legacy

Drei Outfits, die nicht laut werden müssen, um Wirkung zu zeigen. Sie spielen mit Gegensätzen: klare Linien, sinnliche Stoffe und zarte Schleifen, die mehr andeuten als verbergen. Jeder Look trägt eine eigene Spannung in sich – mal unschuldig, mal verführerisch, mal selbstbewusst verspielt. Gemeinsam erzeugen sie eine Atmosphäre, in der Eleganz und Erotik Hand in Hand gehen. BK-Legacy zeigt hier nicht Mode, sondern Momente, in denen ein Avatar nicht nur gesehen wird, sondern hängen bleibt.

Upon entering Fantasia, the very air feels different—lighter, warmer, and alive with a quiet magic. Before you is the Fairy Meadow, a vast rolling field carpeted with wildflowers in every imaginable color. Tiny lights drift lazily above the blossoms as fairies flit from petal to petal, their laughter sounding like soft chimes in the breeze. In that moment, you realize with absolute certainty that you have crossed into another world, one untouched by time and filled with wonder.

A gently winding path invites you forward, leading you toward the Hobbit Village nestled into grassy hills. Round wooden doors are set into the earth, each framed with ivy and flowering vines. The comforting aroma of fresh bread pulls you toward a cozy bakery, where golden loaves cool on open windowsills and the sound of cheerful humming drifts out the door. Nearby, the winery rests beneath arching grapevines, its barrels aging quietly as the scent of sweet fruit and oak fills the air. Hobbit folk pass by, tipping their hats and offering warm smiles, making you feel like a welcome guest rather than a stranger.

Continuing farther down the path, the scenery slowly transforms as towering trees rise overhead, their branches weaving together to form a natural canopy. You have entered the Fairy Forest, a place of soft shadows and glowing mushrooms that light the way. The forest hums with life—rustling leaves, distant bird calls, and the gentle trickle of hidden streams. Yet curiosity urges you onward.

The path climbs slightly and opens into a breathtaking sight: the Elven Treehouse Village. Seven magnificent treehouses stand high among ancient trees, each one unique and masterfully crafted. Lanterns glow warmly from windows, and laughter echoes through the branches. From this lofty village, you can see the meadow, the hills, and the forest—reminding you that this magical land holds endless adventures, just waiting to be discovered.

You soon realize you have only seen about one third of Fantasia!

Over the past year, I have received numerous reports from residents across OpenSim regarding the behavior and advertising practices of the user known as **Kamilian** from **Hempstein Island**. The concerns have been consistent and serious, especially regarding the promotion of violent and sexually exploitative themes. This type of content has no place in any community platform, and it directly undermines the safety and trust that OpenSim users expect.

OpenSim is meant to be a refuge — a creative, social, and welcoming environment where people can feel safe. When someone repeatedly promotes content that crosses clear ethical and community boundaries, it affects not only one region or one grid, but the entire OpenSim ecosystem.

I am asking the community to take this matter seriously. If you have encountered similar issues with this individual, you are encouraged to report it directly to the **OpenSimWorld.com** owner so they can review the situation and take appropriate action. Community standards only work when we uphold them together.

If anyone needs to speak with me privately about their experiences or concerns, you are welcome to reach out. This is not about drama — this is about protecting the integrity and safety of the spaces we all share.

We deserve a community where people feel safe, respected, and free from harmful content. It’s time for this issue to be addressed.

Sonntag:
🎉 Benvenuti zum Italienischen Abend!
Am 28. Dezember 2025 ab 20:00 Uhr feiern wir virtuell mit mediterranem Flair, guter Musik und charmanten Gästen.
Mit dabei: Tommy White & Paristelle Marisol – sie bringen den Sound von Bella Italia direkt zu euch!
Dresscode: La Dolce Vita – ob Vespa-Chic, Pizzabäcker-Style oder Opernglamour, alles ist erlaubt.

I've been working on a project that is 18th century Acadia / Caraquet New Brunswick. This is the interior of a church that one of my ancestors actually had built in the late 1700's, I'm no longer a Catholic. But the statue of Mary made me cry a bit. I think this came out nice. :)

New Materials Added. Fresh Row Available.

I just shared a new set and added another full row to the collection.

These materials are designed to work well with natural light and outdoor regions, keeping textures clean and readable without losing depth.

If you would like photos of your region, feel free to send me an IM or message me directly here on this page. We can coordinate and schedule it easily.

More updates coming soon.

Acabo de compartir un nuevo set y agregué otra hilera completa a la colección.

Estos materiales funcionan muy bien con luz natural y en regiones exteriores, manteniendo las texturas limpias, claras y con buena profundidad.

Meine Weihnachtswelt ist fertig. War zwar viel Arbeit aber am Ende wird man belohnt wenn man sich das Ergebnis anschaut. Danke an Alle die hier Shops haben und wo ich mir alles zusammen holen konnte. Tolle Arbeit die ihr Alle leistet und das für nichts. Wir können euch nicht genug danken. Eine schöne Weihnachtszeit für euch alle und kommt gut ins neue Jahr.

My Christmas world is finished. It was a lot of work, but in the end, it's so rewarding when you see the result. Thank you to everyone who has shops here and where I could get everything. You all do such amazing work, and for nothing! We can't thank you enough. Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas season and a happy New Year.

At Desolate Expanse, we proudly showcase our signature attractions: a bathtub scene that looks like the aftermath of a very ambitious but poorly planned experiment, and a skeleton enjoying the outdoors with a level of calm that suggests he gave up on life’s problems long before you arrived. It’s the ideal destination for anyone who likes their tourism slightly unsettling and their questions completely unanswered.

In OpenSim, people don’t really vanish.
Sure — the avatar logs off, the profile goes still, and the regions they touched fall a little quieter. But the truth is, no one who poured their creativity into this world ever truly leaves it behind.

Every builder, scripter, artist, designer, and dreamer who passes on becomes something more permanent than any prim or mesh:
they become a new star over our metaverse.

A bright point of light watching over the worlds we keep shaping.

Their work, their ideas, their imagination — those stay woven into the grids, the stories, the landmarks, and the communities they helped grow. And every time we rez a prim, sculpt a landscape, or chase some wild idea just to see if we can… we’re carrying their spark forward.

We honor them best by continuing to build boldly.
By creating freely.
By keeping OpenSim vibrant, weird, beautiful, and alive.

Because the metaverse doesn’t forget its creators — it turns them into constellations.

And we look up, keep going, and make sure our worlds shine even brighter. #Luna #Mal #Torben #Triz

About the newest Firestorm Viewer: I want to love it, but I don't. I really do love PBR materials and they show up just fine with the new viewer and they seem to have fixed the blurry, out of focus view when you move around in-world. Problem is, Animesh. I have to be right on top of the animesh to see it move. Koshari and I were in-world tonight and couldn't see any animesh moving unless we were right next to them and even then they seemed to lag out a bit. We both changed our viewer to the old, pre PBR viewer 6.6.17 and could see the animesh moving from all the way across the sim. My guess is that, because you are constantly rendering PBR textures in-world, they decreased the animation visibility to compensate for it. Until Firestorm gives us a toggle, slider, or patch to bring back proper animation distance, sticking with 6.6.17 is the smart move. The PBR viewer is beautiful, but not worth sacrificing functional animesh. That's a hard pass for me
Anyone have thoughts on this? Does anyone have any inside scoop on whether they plan on fixing this.

“Animation culling” is basically the viewer deciding not to bother updating animations for things that are “too far away” or “not important enough.”

Think of it as Firestorm saying:
“Hmm… you’re 40 meters away from that animesh? Yeah, I’m not wasting CPU cycles on making it dance. Freeze frame it is.”

More technically:

Animation Culling = Distance-Based Animation Shutdown

The viewer stops updating animations on avatars or animesh once they’re beyond a certain distance or priority threshold.
Instead of actually animating them, it just shows the last frame and saves performance.

Why viewers do it

To reduce:

CPU load

GPU load

Network updates

Overall rendering cost

In the PBR viewer, the rendering pipeline is heavier (PBR = shiny but hungry), so the viewer culls animations more aggressively.
What is the point of animesh if it only animates when you’re making out with it?
