Speculoos
“Speculoos” is the original name of a traditional Belgian cookie… But enough of historical considerations. Speculoos World is an OpenSimulator 3D virtual world. You can meet people in a 3D environment, build objects, landscapes and buildings, hang out…
Opensimulator
Speculoos World is based on OpenSimulator, an open-source 3D virtual environment server.

Warning
I run this grid for my own pleasure to see what creatives can do if they have a place to do it. That’s why there is usually land available for free. And also why there are some rules to follow. The complete regions are available upon request (and under conditions).
This site was initially supposed to be translated into at least French, Dutch and English. However, it is a small grid, maintained by … me. So don’t blame me if most of the content is only in English. It’s not my native language (so don’t blame me for the mistakes either), but it’s the one that works best for most visitors.
Server updates friday and saturday nights
We will proceed to a server update during this week-end. The operations will take place during friday 22/02/2013 and saturday 23/02/2013 nights, and should not affect the accessibility of the grid more than one hour. Hopefully, we will take this opportunity to update...
Website updated
We made a major upgrade to the website core engine. We expect it to work as before, but don't hesitate to contact us if you notice anything wrong.
Testing 0.7.4 for production upgrade
[Update] All servers have been updated, everything running smooth. We are now testing 0.7.4 on some private and devel regions before deploying them to the whole grid If everything works as expected... it will be soon.
Debian OpenSim Toolbox
New set of tools We released some of our installation tools on https://git.magiiic.com/opensimulator/opensim-debian It is far from complete, but we kinda paused development on this for now. Old set of tools These are quite dated, but still available on...
Enhanced grid info: separate local and hg visitors count
We added a line in grid info: the monthly visitors count. This is the total of unique avatars (local and hypergrid) who visited our grid during the last 30 days. This idea came after a talk with Maria Korolov. She pointed an interesting issue with the grid info...
Fixed a bug in website grid statistics
[Update] We now also include both local and HG visitors in our grid info. We found a bug in the module we use to display grid statistics. This produced arbitrary count for "Online last month" section. We fixed it and stats now display accurate numbers. Bug was...
New server? Time to celebrate! (free parcels and new sci-fi area)
Our new server is up and does very well. We’ve been testing several configurations and use cases during the last 6 months and now we are happy we have been able to establish our standards to provide fast, reliable OpenSim services.
Now it’s time to celebrate! Before we start to work on the commercial approach (and make boring calculations for our future production phase), we want to give away a couple more places, to enable wonderful builder to set their home here and suprise us with their creations.
New 8 core i7 server. This rocks!
[Update] Regions have been moved succesfully. We have been quiet last days, we must tell you why: we were waiting for our new server. Now it is up and running: an 8 core i7 backed with 24GB RAM and 2TB HD, all this in a cutting-edge datacenter, on an outstanding...
