EEP sky temporarily shifting

[Moon Sun]

On my sim, walking between two parcels that have identical EEP settings causes the sky to fade in and out. Neither parcel is set to region default. This is happening in Firestorm and the default viewer. This will also just happen randomly if I am standing still. Any idea why this is happening or how to fix this?

If you are walking between parcels that are not using the region default, it will reload the settings based on the parcel settings, even if it is the same. If you use the region default and the parcels are using it too, then it will not reload.

Ok thanks. That makes sense

I didn't answer the second part. Forgive me. 

When you are just standing still on a parcel that is using its own environment settings (that differs from the Region Default) and then it changes suddenly for a moment, that is almost always related to your connection to the Region/Sim. The connection stalls or drops for a split second and then the EPP changes back to the region default for that split second.

This also relates to when music streams cut out during play. Your connection to the region drops or stalls, it stops the music stream, then resumes. This might relate to your ISP or the Cloud Server that the region is on. SL might be having a bad hair day. I am sure that if you experience a music stream cut-off, you probably saw at some places the environment reset at the exact same moment. There is really not anything you can do about that. It is just part of it.
