Introduction
Note 1: If you are reading this on any site but http://www.opensimulator.org, you might not be actually downloading OpenSimulator.org software. Please check your browser URL before proceeding any further.
Note 2: Depending on what you want to do with OpenSimulator, setting it up and keeping it running will require a fair amount of technical knowledge. After downloading OpenSim, please consult the several instruction manuals on this Wiki and elsewhere. Please be aware that the learning curve for operating OpenSimulator is steep.
Note 3: Many Linux distros (including Ubuntu) ship with only the "mono-runtime" package installed, however you need to install "mono-complete" for some OpenSimulator features such as LSL script commands.
Note 4: OpenSimulator is made available under the BSD License. Downloaders of the code also receive an additional IP Rights Grant for any intellectual property licensed to OpenSimulator under the terms of the Contribution Agreements.
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

Binary packages of the current candidate for the next OpenSimulator release are provided in .zip or .tar.gz form. This candidate is made available for testing - if you require more tested code then please download the current release instead. The two packages are theoretically identical, though the .tar.gz was built on mono while the .zip was built under .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.

Source code repository
You can also download code directly from the OpenSimulator source code repository. However, we only suggest doing this if you've very familiar with OpenSimulator. Master development code at any point may be broken or may contain database changes that later need to be reversed.
Previous releases
You can find previous releases of OpenSimulator at http://opensimulator.org/dist. Very old releases (pre OpenSimulator 0.6.8) only have source code packages.
