Fritigern Gothly Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 As I was flying along the southern border, I saw these two regions appear. I don;t think I was supposed to see them though, so I feel privileged 🙂 They were gone just a few minutes later, giving credence to the idea that it was an oopsie 🙂  1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hovering here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dark Expanse/80/170/136 and I See: https://gyazo.com/40588436ea1fe782b810e1dcd1223235 That's amazing! I was wondering why it seemed that the building speed of the Moles had slowed down, and now I know, they were secretly working on an extra sub continent, AND the Victorians. The amount of homes added to the pool is going to be HUGE!!!!!!!!! For those just reading this, this sub continent is located between The horizontal part of the Bellisseria Channel and the Jeogeot continent. There are several smaller, multi-region islands with houseboats in that same ara (not pictured), I have seen them, but we can't access it yet. Do note that these regions are not visible on the map, because the Moles (Abnor, to be precise) has placed map screens at 350 meters up in the air so as to hide it from the world map, that sneaky robot dude!! 😄  Edited December 7, 2019 by Fritigern Gothly 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I set my draw distance to the max of 1024 - yeah, that is almost crash-bait - I can normally truly see things that are 2 regions away. However, LL must be using some sort of magic with the new regions. There is only one region of empty space between current Belli and new southern Belli - but a draw distance of 1024 still cannot see anything. I even looked under the water and flew up to 4096 in case they were trying to be sneaky by temporarily using a different altitude. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps they'll be worked on soon. Edited December 7, 2019 by s2Pandora 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eowyn Southmoor Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 ok so there's another 4-region area of houseboats south east of where that region was with the ice on it too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s2Pandora Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) Also found more houseboats on Pearl Drop and Leeward. Where were all these. Do they have secret new building areas?! Edited December 7, 2019 by s2Pandora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they have secret new building areas?! Yes, they are using map screens, 256x256 platforms, placed at 350 meters height, textured like the maptile they want to pretend they are. In this case, it's usually water, but I have seen grass map screens. So they place the map screen over some land, effectively hiding the land so they can create in relative peace, and without people studying the map and speculating about what they are preparing and possibly spoiling the surprise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not using any magic. It is exactly that one empty (AKA: void, non-existing) region strip between Bellisseria and the southern Bellisseria which prevents camming in there. It has never been possible to cam over the void to any region. When that empty strip is filled with actual regions only then we can cam into the southern Bellisseria. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Well, what it means is we are getting new houseboats all around the continent, except the north side (at least for now). Â 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coby Foden Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 From Squishy Pickle's Alala region towards the east I can see new regions with traditional houses, houseboats and campers. As yet they don't show up in the map but it's possible to cam in there.

We already know that they've cloned regions in the new Victorian area. Edited December 7, 2019 by LittleMe Jewell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. And looking south from http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Moonia/229/84/35 there are lots of houseboats coming. If all the new regions (Victorians included) will be released almost at the same time then that release will be HUGE.

And looking south from http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Moonia/229/84/35 there are lots of houseboats coming. Yep. Between Moonia and SSPE320, there are now 4 houseboat regions grouped around a central sandbar.   Armada (!), Remolcadora, Melville Deep, and Quahog Cove.  Sailing or even flying around the area is tricky, as access to more than these 4 regions is blocked, and there are 'missing' water regions. One tends to get logged out often while zipping around there with 900+ draw distance Effectively this extends the fringe of houseboats along the top of North Belli's "foot" area up to Moonia, fairly close to the southeast edge of the pickle. And there is space for more, should they build it out. It doesn't look like another continent is being built at this time, but rather that Belli is acquiring a fringe of "suburbs" - clumps of 4- 9 regions, either houseboats or mixed Trads, campers and houseboats. The clumps of 9 regions have fully realized coastline all around them, it doesn't seem that they're designed to 'hook up' to a larger continent. It would be interesting if super duper premium included the ability to move to a 'clump' with a group of friends. For a fee, of course! But I doubt that is in the cards; Ll likes to steer clear of inter-resident personal dynamics.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
