Cindy Evanier Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 You should check out the houses on the marketplace then but you will need to buy or rent land to place them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxanne069 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I would recommend homes by either Maya's builder's, inverse or roost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blush Bravin Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I adore Roost homes. If you like modern, well built mesh homes that are perhaps on the larger size with lots of rooms then Roost http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Roost/158/130/28 is awesome. If you like something out of the ordinary, perhaps even a bit quirky then Scarlet Creative http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Scarlet Creative/111/200/48 is great, if you want something that looks like an aged cottage you would have found in an old Hollywood hills setting then take a look at L2Studio http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/LHOOQ/214/37/34. I could go on and on but these are at the top of my list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah, they look great but are poorly constructed to be able to sell as Low LI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's such a shame because their stuff is wonderful and I would have spent so much more linden there >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebe Bunny Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 OP seems quite lost in their SL generally, I seen them posting on a facebook group looking for friends and then leaving the group right after, needless to say the reception there was not the best one.

ChinRey Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) Maybe I shouldn't reply since I make and sell houses myself but I risk it anyway since you're probably not looking for a low lag, low land impact cottage (which is my speciality). La Galleria and Maven Homes are safe, reliable brands if you want a big house. They never do anythng wrong afaik. InVerse is usually a good choice but stay away from their early mesh houses, it took them a while before they figured out how to do it. I love everything from Scarlet Collective myself. A bit on the laggy side and not always very practical builds but they're so lovely in their quirkiness. Unlike Christiania I've usually found Trompe Loeil builds to have good LoD, but yes, I know of a few exceptions. Trompe Loeil tends to be extremely laggy though and that is something you should consider unless you have a powerful game computer and your land is well away from public view. Some general tips: Never ever buy a house without actually seeing it in-world. A picture on MP can lie more than a thousand words. Check the LoD. Especially for the outer walls. You do not want them to collapse so people can see inside your house. Cam out or move away from the house until you are just at the draw distance. Are the walls still solid? If not, don't buy. (I'm afraid that eliminates at least one of the brands recommended in this thread. I won't say which, see for yourself.) Check the physics. Can you walk on the floors (or do you sink into them or hover above them)? Can you walk through the doorways? Are the walls solid? Can you rez on the floors? If the answer is no to any of those questions, you probably don't want it. Check the lag. This is tricky because we don't really have good ways to measure it. But there are two way to get a reasonable indication: Right-click on the house and select edit. Make sure you have selected the whole house, if not, shift-click on the unselected parts until you have them all. Then, in the edit window that turns up, look for a link named "More info", click on it and look at "Display" in the lsit of weights. The lower that number is, the better but what is realistic depends on what kind of house it is: Small cottage: Anything below 10,000 is good, anything below 25,000 is probably acceptable Small house: 20,000 should be ok, 30,000-40,000 isn't too bad For a family home: maybe 50,000 is ok For a mansion: I don't know... maybe 100,000-150,000 is acceptable Another good indicator is VRAM. That function is only available in Firestorm, not in the official viewer and you find it by right-clicking and selecting Object->Inspect. Again, you want it as low as possible but realisitcally: Small cottage: No more than 25,000 (and even that is a bit too high) Small house: Ideally less than 50,000, realistically, less than 100,000 Family home: You really don't want to go higehr than 100,000 Mansion: Not higher than 500 MB (500,000 Kb), ideally no more than 200,000 Edited February 22, 2019 by ChinRey 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, for some objects, If it resembles the picture on MP, your camera is 0.10 m or less away from it, if it looks like a triangle it's more than that. I sometimes us a prim as a measuring stick. I don't know of any other method than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a rough idea using the minimap. The camera location shows on the map (at least in Firestorm) and I know where the object is because that's where the camera started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use Firestorm's area search to get that info. I just need the name of the object and I can see exactly how far away from that object I am by using this handy tool. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
