Other Changes... I removed the ceiling. I find the idea of walls in Virtual spaces odd. Why is this wall here?.. Is it blocking me from an area that I shouldn't be in? To have a ceiling when regions don't have an actual height limit seems unecessary. It also allows the user to see other projects from almost anywhere on the Island.
I changed the texture of the ground/DIRT (dirt, trees, water, etc..in SL are also baffling to me)..so now all of the base height is textured and says 'IML'... it's even viewable from SPACE (or the map that is)... working with .raw files in photoshop I was able to change the floor level to be even (much more accurate than working with the land terraform tools).
I blocked out the OCEAN... I constructed walls around the edges of the Island using the same color coordinate script of the floor up to a height of 256... this gives the full color gradient.. Walls on the edge of the island do not bother me because you can't actually fly off the Island... the large expanse of the Ocean is a LIE!!! You cannot go swimming out there... no virtual fish..NOTHING. So to replace this view with one that shows you that there are boundaries and can be used as a navigational tool I feel is worth the extra prims.
