Firestorm Question about Windlight

[NekoBoi Littlepaws]

HI everyone reading this

Ive recently updated my viewer to latest firestorm and i cant seem to find an option like in older one to have your windlight settings locked to a certain one 

anyone know a workaround for this to keep it locked to a certain windlight/water settings?

 

Also if anyone knows a places to get more windlight/water/cycle setings feel free to respond here too im always looking for new ones

 

Thanks

Look in the Environments folder in the Library in your Inventory.

I have some new "Places" EEP Skies that I made in November. They are on the wall for free here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Moon Beach/209/109/2511 

 

You can get all the old Windlights from the viewer that have been converted -- on the Marketplace.  https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Firestorm-Default-Sky-Windlights-for-EEP/20088838

 

Note that not all Windlight settings translate well. Some better than others but a starting point for you anyway.

I think the answer to your question is in Rowan's link. 

I think you meant how to keep a environment set as you move from region to region. I fly a helicopter and often want to avoid changing environment settings as I cross from region to region. The former FS trick of setting environment 'NOT to change as you change regions' is sort of depreciated. That is because when you attach an environment it is sticky and automatically disables World->Environment->Use Shared Environment. Which I think is a better way than the previous idea of changing to a region's default setting when you enter. I think I understand the idea but it doesn't work well for sailors and aviators.

I do use the setting Use Shared Environment. Running through the near mandatory check list for Shergood helicopters' take-off gives me an opportunity to stick the current region's environment as my environment for the flight.
