I grew up watching movies from the 1920s through the 1970s on the 1916 movie projector we had out in our barn (I still have it, no longer working). As I see it, movie technology is far too new for any movie to be ancient. Edited August 14, 2019 by Madelaine McMasters 5 Link to post Share on other sites

Vana Gears 218 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 This rambling question is for people who drop homes like flies . After a couple weeks of refresh I snagged a houseboat a few days ago, but seeing the nuclear towers tells me that trailer parks are coming. 😜 Is it just a grab for whatever timezone it drops? I hate to spend time making this home when I know I want something else. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

However folks are abandoning properties around the clock. For instance 2 traditional just went by this past 1/2 hour. (Around midnight SLT time) I too gave up my houseboat, it was nice, in a great spot, but didn't feel like home to me. I take it you want a trailer? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
TessaPaige Jupiter 211 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 LOL Alyona! I was at the 3 Mile Island spot on SSPE238 yesterday. I had to do a double take. I wonder what they are doing with those structures? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
LittleMe Jewell 36,769 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Not sure if this was already posted. More camper work on the SSP continent - I lose the green parcel markers in SPS247 if I scroll out: That corresponds to this area on the actual Bellisseria continent - some of the regions are not even placed yet: 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I had to do a double take. I wonder what they are doing with those structures? I really do love it when the Moles and Lindens creates "parodies" or "facsimiles" of RL things. For example: did you know that Crows Nest lighthouse in the Blake Sea is modeled after a real one? If you alt-cam inside (the door has been broken for years now, so you cannot walk inside) - there is a hatch in the floor. Open the hatch and alt-cam straight down and you will see a photograph of the RL lighthouse. It is actually an amazingly accurate reproduction (and using *prims*). 7 Link to post Share on other sites
