- Region Name: Kaze no Chiiiki (aka Region of the Wind)
- Locations: 10 areas, including the farm

It's still a work in progress, but VivoSim is live and the expansion for the Japanese items are in the marketplace. Currently there are 3 gardens available for Beta: Konsai Garden, Yasai Garden, Kokumotsu Fields and are in the Beta store. More coming soon Show more

Kaze is back to being built, it's just about finished. I'm adding the farms, trees and animals. Just remember it is still being built, but it is open for visitors.

You can visit Kaze at the following OSurls:

Kaze is still offline...I hoping it will be up sometime this week. in the mean time, i am creating various decor, furniture and such at the model home I have in Gentle Fire Grid. The bottom floor is mostly done and everything it full perm there. I will be adding things as I go, so watch the marketplace in Kaze (when it's back...) for lots of freebies!

Got the "store" up at Kaze and you can get the Yasai Garden there. I am working on building objects that I have personally built as well -- like the Japanese-style fence. I am also learning how to use Blender ( i just downloaded it tonight) to make the object more region-friendly (LI vs. Prim) and will put them up soon.

The Konsai Garden is coming along well (it's in it's 2nd phase) and I should have some news about it soon! (see the picture for updated image)

Storage is coming slowly but should be ready for alpha-testing by April 14, 2025.
I am looking at 9 new gardens and a series of Fields for the Japanese set. After that, adding recipes to the original VivoSim devices (stoves, ovens, etc.) and then onto Japanese-style devices for the set up of farm and villages.

The goal is as follows:
➔ Japanese Foods & Drinks
➔ Japanese sewing & fiber crops with the ability to make yukatas, tatami, futons, etc.
➔ addition to the Smithy to make Kintsugi and jewelry
➔ addition of bamboo (& other trees) and the ability to make geta, tableware, decor, furniture,
buildings, tools etc.

Okay, so I ran into RL issues and was having issues updating so here we go!

Was having issues with New Plant images and decided to use AI to render all my Yasai field plant as "new" plants. I have added the new images to the plants and have them growing now. Here is the first render of them. They look so much better!



NOTE:
I have released the Japanese Yasai Garden for testing. If can be found at Kaze No Sato's market.

DESCRIPTION
The Japanese Yasai is a small garden that grows 11 Japanese vegetables for preparing Japanese dishes. I have researched recipes and preparation so the dishes are as close to the actual dish in real life. Some of the textures of the vegetables are still a work in progress.

ADDITIONAL
The following vegetables have been added for Japanese cuisine
➔ Hakusai (Chinese Cabbage)
➔ Horenso (spinach)
➔ Komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach)
➔ Kyabetsu (cabbage)
➔ Kyuri (cucumber)
➔ Mizuna (Japanese mustard)
➔ Naganegi (leek)
➔ Nasu (aubergine)
➔ Negi (green onion)
➔ Shiso (perilla)
➔ Tomato (Japanese black tomato)


TECHNICAL
To change the original "garden" requires some work with the config file and the scripts. Here is a list of changes:

➔ Short names of vegetables have been added and deleted.
➔ Full names of vegetables have been added and deleted
➔ Autoreplant has been activated
➔ Auto Water mode has been changed from "sprinkler" to "water tower" for use of the small pumps


SCRIPTS
Scripts have been copied from various Vivosim plants with similar uses for Vivosim such as:
➔ config: various vegetables and herbs
➔ setpin: various vegetables and herbs
➔ sounds: pour rice, sniffing
