Binary Packages
Current release
Binary packages of the latest OpenSimulator release are provided in .zip or .tar.gz form. The two packages are theoretically identical, though the .tar.gz was built using mono while the .zip was built using .NET.
Once you've unzipped/untarred these you'll be able to run OpenSimulator 'out of the box' in standalone mode - no code compilation or other installation required.
The current release is 0.9.3.0 (released on November 8, 2024) and can be downloaded as
After unpacking please read the 0.9.3.0 Release Notes. Further instructions on running OpenSimulator may be found in README.txt after you untar/unzip the archives and within this wiki.
