Importing own legal Windlights (skies)

[Rosanna Ewing]

Hello together,

yesterday i got an Update from Second Life Viewer and installed the Second Life Release 6.2.3.527250 (64Bit) which comes with the Environmental Enhancement Project (aka EEP!). I have a question to it now:

i have a lot of own legal windlights (especially skies) in XML format and want to impot them all into the new Second Life Vierwer Release 6.2.3.527250.  I tried it but i only can import one single windlight after another! This would be very time consuming and complicated for me - so is there another way to import the whole folder (which lay in user/AppData/Roaming/Second Life/user settings/windlight/skies) into the new SL viewer?  Thanks for your support in advance 🙂

good question!

Nope, you have to import each sky one at a time, but it's actually pretty fast.

If you want to import a bunch of legacy sky xml files into EEP, create one new sky setting & double click it to open the editor.
Then use the "Import" button to choose the first sky xml to import.
Then use "Save as" to save that first imported sky to your inventory.

You do not need to create a new sky for each sky setting you import & you don't have to close the sky editing window.
Just keep using Import & save as, import & save as.
Hope that makes sense.

We can't talk about those.

Thanks Whirly for your comment 🙂 seems that there is no other way as the one you described in your answer and so  i startet with importing some of my own windlights but there are many others waiting to import. As i told i had a great number of it which i don't want to miss now in the new released SL viewer.

Nope, still don't get it.  If you stick multiple 'legacy' windlights into 1 EEP object, then how will the system know which of the windlights therein you want to use for a certain height?

First thing i'm gonna do is add a multi-import.
