Any update on when we can expect Premium Plus Linden Homes?

My first recommendation is to find a lower LI yacht. 

I totally agree; my favorite BBX boats are the VEN at 50 LI, the ZODI at 47 LI and the TATY at 103 LI.  On my 1024 water lot, I have the VEN and the ZODI rezzed, along with a Jetski, two hanging out areas and a fully furnished house.

I will have a mooch to see if I can find a better boat. The problem I have at the moment is my current build which I am very attached to doesn't leave much left (8 prims), and that's after linking everything I can. I generally buy expensive furniture too which looks good and has a low Li.

Great job, very classy and sleek!  I really like  how sharp and clear your photos are and I WANT that monitor for my RL desk!!  Must be 40" wide or more!

However I heard something about linking specific objects or removing scripts inside the objects would decrease the prim count, but for that I think it's best for a person who has more experience on that than me to tell you.

For items that are 'modify', you can experiment with linking objects together fairly easily -- just don't do it with anything scripted unless you really know what you are doing and how the scripts work.  That includes anything with texture change ability, size changing scripts, animation scripts, etc...  Also, only do it with Copy items, so that you'll still have an original in your Inventory. 

Don't link in anything that is a Sculpt - those can cause your linksets to skyrocket in LI and you could end up overflowing your LI limit and getting things returned. 

Sometimes, the safest thing to do if you aren't sure about something is to go play around with it in a sandbox.

What do they mean by saddle up?

I think it's a play with words, and that we get modern ranch houses.

Tomorrow, next week, in 3 weeks, in two months....

I hope the pharmacy around the corner sells saddles, but probably not tomorrow since it's Christmas!

I'd just be happy with a house boat on a plot the size of the normal 1024 but with the prims of a 2048 plot. I always have the issue of not having enough prims. My dream would be to have my house boat decorated to the standard it currently is, perhaps a bit more, but with another 200 or so prims for a really nice yatch to be moored outside. Currently, it seems you can either have a nice yatch outside and an empty home or a really nice home but no boat. 

I could be wrong, and please, if anyone has figured out how to strike the balance, please let me know. 

I hear ya! I would love to be able to rez my Zooby baby on my houseboat with it fully decorated.

Thank you, I have a large monitor in RL although not quite as large! 

The SL one is from a place called Dby. It's part of a whole set which is very nice if not a bit primy when all rezzed out.

Nothing like consensus to bring us all together.  I personally find the barn style to be a little too similar to Log Homes.  If they were to add some barns as new model options for the Log Home theme, then sure, go for it.  As a new theme, I would likely pass, but would be happy for those who really want one.

I am sorry that I posted wrong over here. I am not disappointed that the houseboats got new models.

I am happy! 😊

I was disappointed that the Traditionals did not get new models, only open floors and a paint job. I know many will count open floors as separate models... But...

The new houseboats look so pretty, and the Traditionals so outdated. I was going to go for a houseboat now, to buy Premium for myself as a Christmas gift. Then I smacked myself on the head, it is no way I can have time for it before Christmas. RL does not permit it.

But I think it will be a January gift for myself, when RL is slower. 😊

Not gonna lie. I'm dissapointed too. I'm grateful for the open floor plans for customization options however I really wanted new models.

I'm using premium plus right now for the extra groups and texture uploads, etc... I also like to have the possibility there to ask for a linden home that I've scouted out somewhere although the one I'm in now is a random find houseboat. I won't change to a 2048 unless it is on the water like the Stilts or the houseboats.  I've tried living in all of the themes and always come back to the places right on the water.  I hope some of the new 2048's are right on the water not next to it. !!

I agree, water is a big pull. I would also like a feeling of "exclusivity", that the plots is not too tight crammed in a region. It is a money issue for LL, of course. But not more than 7-8 in a region, and the protected land around need to include a lot of water.

[Elena Blossom]

Some people have already got them  You just need to place a massive prim on the sky and take over half the region....

[Matthieu Quander]

That explains the big green square on the map.  I was wondering if someone had done that, but wasn't curious enough to go looking for it.  The world map is great for identifying platforms that are below the covenant limit...and in this case ones that extend beyond the parcel boundaries.

That is how I found it, I thought it was my connection, but no, it was a Bellisseria new development...

So, still no news on new 2048 houses?  I won't update to Premium Plus until then.  Renting a parcel right now.

Holiday vacation days fell on Mondays this year, so people who took a 2-3 week vacation around Christmas should be getting back to work tomorrow.  Twelfth Night (Epiphany) was last Thursday.   I think we're officially "around the corner"!

I have fingers crossed that LL's presence in general will pick up next week.  Not sure there was a SUG last week, SSPVCR is still waiting to join Belli,  moles have returned to expanding/elaborating Belli, someone was in SSP83X this morning ... 

/me lays down a trail of Triple Ginger cookies leading from Patch's desk to Flickr.   Hmmm?

Sorry I've been scarce for a bit.  I came down with some dreadful version of RSV, started to get better and then got hit with a really bad sinus infection.   Long story short, my holidays were spent on death's bed, enough so I didn't even post my usual round of holiday pictures.  They would be a bit untimely now to post to Flickr I suppose.  Is a shame, you never know what might have turned up in them beyond the elbow and puffer jacket picture. 

[Tary Allen]

Sorry to hear you were sick, hope all is well now.

Although that is a sexy elbow, please do show the rest of you. It is always time for Christmas picks, I'm sure we all agree.
