Sister Nova

Unfortunately, it happened to me. I had a beautiful location in a rocky, hilly area of Sansara, and my immediate neighbours all had sizeable parcels but preferred to live up in the sky. I placed some lovely old houses with a church and considered that I had contributed something to the area that would be pleasing for anyone to see that might come across this pretty much isolated location. One parcel adjoining one side of my own went up for sale and the new owner placed a huge skybox on the ground. It loomed over the cottage that was my home and completely ruined my outlook. Why do people do that? They couldn’t see out of the box, had no access in or out of it, was several regions from a road or river, and it would have been just the same if it were placed at some altitude. I abandoned my parcel and the area looked neglected (other than the skybox) once again.

The neighbourhood does look especially magical in the night time setting. If that is to be the default for the theme once released it is easy to set the environment to your preference on your own parcel. I have one of my homes set to mimic my RL time zone with a 24 hour day and GMT. It’s lovely to mirror my sitting after dark with subdued lighting with the addition of a ticking grandfather clock that soothes me whilst reading.

It is a pun on the name of the prog rock band Emerson, Lake and Palmer

The campers were revealed at SL16B but according to Patch's release thread they weren't available until 17th September that year. Hard to know for sure what sort of run in time is needed, especially with the comment that the houses are unfinished as yet.

Don’t forget the large airport at the southern end of Sansara too! The airstrips are perfect for Bellisseria, and with all the water around you can land a seaplane or a helicopter with floats pretty much anywhere.

Looks fairly dark... no windows shown... underground perhaps?

SSPE1187A looks like it may be the build for the region that is now Altberg.

Yes, non residents and also residents that use all their LI allowance for furnishings a decorations. The rez zone is also handy for larger vehicles.

It’s an alt of the OP. They push this subject in various places

It gives the contact in the Get The Freight Out group charter.

When Bellisseria was first created the original build was still in the SSP area. The pickle was evident there as part of the layout to come and the squishy pickle was made from that and was placed to the south west of the SSP landmass. I remember laughing when Patch threw us a curve ball with the squishy pickle actually being placed to the top right of the actual continent as it was then. The rest of the pickle build was eventually copied across afterwards as the continent then grew to the limit of the SSP layout.

Most of the AO huds have a specific button that turns on and off the sit override. Some will always be switched on whenever you log in (part of the loading process) and others will remember your last setting. I always turn the sit override off whenever I log in. I then don't have to think about it anymore until I log in again, or decide to switch it on in order to use it. It was particularly handy when a lot of furniture didn't have animations already installed. If you're going to sail your boat or fly or drive in vehicles I would always suggest that you detach your AO hud if you are going to be crossing a lot of regions. Very rarely your AO can get broken by crossings... but I emphasise that it IS rarely. In the 15 years that I have been in SL, and the tremendous amount of travelling that I have done, I think this has only happened to me no more than 5 or 6 times. As a precaution (because I don't always detach the hud) I make a copy of my HUD and use the copy. I can then copy the original to use again in the event of the last being broken.

Most people that travel will have come across map boards that give out textures of continental maps in various places. This is the most famous by Carl Metropolitan.

The teleport co-ordinates that the map gives when obtaining a Linden Home only state the X and Y part, the Z (altitude) seems to default to 0 or 2. If you have a land house this isn't a problem as it will put you on the ground level, although depending on the house that is already selected on the parcel I have ended up under the staircase on a few occasions. With water houses, the ground level is of course under the water, so that is where you'll end up. If you use the world map instead of the website link and copy the co-ordinates onto that and input the Z co-ordinate as 22 you should end up inside.

The whole of the continental landmass that is situated beneath Sansara, above Jeogeot, and reaching north eastward up to the southern tip of Satori is all Bellisseria, and with more themes yet to be added it will be growing even more.

POST have a couple that I don't believe are covered in your list. I initially went to get this link for you being one that I have used myself on numerous occasions.... https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/POST-Gnesen-Farm-Sheds/4251552 ... and then discovered that they do this one too that may be more what you have in mind (though I haven't ever actually used it myself). https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/POST-Holopaw-Shack/6660107

Wind power!! Something has to supply the energy for 'full brights' and lights!

You certainly would..... 'Norwegian Wood'?

Sure the Borg may be out there, but I’ve always been more hopeful that there would be a benign ‘Federation of Planets’. 🖖

Yes, vehicles can enter a parcel with no available prim allowance, I entered a full parcel with my car just yesterday, and even loitered for a few minutes. If the driver stands the vehicle would then disappear regardless of the land settings, but passing through is no problem at all. A full region is a different matter, a vehicle would not be able to enter.

I’ve seen you on a little island quite a number of times when passing

I love Bellisseria just as it is. I have a home there and also have property on each of the other continents with the exception of Zindra and Gaeta I. I appreciate the diversity of each and would hate to see it all looking the same just to make the map look pretty.

The post is an intention of revised behaviour, but I do realise that many want everything now. Let's wait and see if they deliver or not.

Here’s some encouragement, from one of the recent news blog posts from LL.. ”Now that Uplift is complete, we anticipate that the rotation of available options will happen more often.”

With the revisions of the list that have taken place so far since the introduction of the name changes, I look at around six months being a general rule of thumb.
