SO THAT is why the teaser photo was so difficult to decipher, these homes are based on a town which is an American interpretation of Bavaria, and then on top of that they've been Bellissarily Second Lifed!!
Hence the strange mountain cabin / victorian farmhouse mix of styles.All I needed was an explanation

Not been to see these yet, I'll wait until it is is quiet.
Ooh I just looked it up and Helen, Georgia is in America? So these are american homes?
Very puzzled. -

I believe “the continent” is a reference to Europe (aside from Ireland and the UK).
Thank you for the translation!

Which continent?
Does he mean 'not the continent which contains North America?'.

I put an alt on watchpost and go about my business in RL. Every full hour I look what she sees or doen't yet see.
As long as we cannot even zoom into the stilt regions or fly over them we will certainly not find them available at the landpage.
Also she has the Belli- Chat open which I scan every full hour for the word "Patch" or "release" ... I must keep to that full hour for otherwise I tend to checking every five minutes or so
PS: just now she got hollered at "... run for aborean ..." or so. Faraday has restarted so she fled home in terror.
I may have gone the opposite way, I'm feeling a bit 'past it' now and disappeared back into opensim for a while to escape. Having landed that lovely Fourze houseboat gave me a dilemma, as I know how hard it will be to to get the prime stilt-home spots during actual release time, because of all the clickers out there competing. It really is nice to join in the rush but.... it may be easier and less stressful to get a great place later, and take advantage of an ultra-hopper letting go their excess catches.
However we'll see how that logic holds out once the stampede begins!-

Because of how the homes rez, they can't use one set of the Stilt styles for the existing regions and a modified set of the styles for upcoming regions.
Sorry, I should have been clearer, I meant is it too late to fit this idea into one of the designs not yet built. I'm wondering how fixed those designs are now.

Having surveyed some mainland properties, I'm not sure how good it would look to have either extremely long poles, or floating poles either.
A floating dock would be more natural for deep water? Is it too late for that?-

Water depth off the Houseboat in Yorith is around 6.4m, and the dock legs seem to *just* touch the sea bed.

These @Abnor Mole posts really lend some insight into how things end up the way they are. I do appreciate them.
I've just grabbed a houseboat in Yorith, a millipede property which floats over a fairly deep sea-bed (somewhere off the south-west corner of the Victorian continent, the map is playing up for me so can't be more exact)
I wonder if the stilt millipede houseboats might have a better water depth for Mer construction? -

The depth of water under the houseboats is deeper than under the stilt homes and is level. The sea floor under the stilt homes (that I've seen) is sloped. I was able to create an underwater home under my houseboat (pic below). I couldn't do this under a stilt home. But I am really looking forward to visiting the waters around stilt homes. It just looks awesome. So I agree that a region with stilts, houseboats, open water, and any other water themes could be a great place for underwater citizens.
Absolutely, I know there is some underwater stuff, but I would like more. The old continent has some weird and wonderful marine exploration spots (watch out for hazards though!)

Let's not get carried away with fanciful notions, imagine instead what could be made with all the spare parts left over from previous builds and a bit of retexturing....

@Evangeline Arcadia @LunaThyme
I believe your points about recycling may be correct...this could indeed be a Franken-farmhouse!!!Which makes me doubt if we would really get a re-shaped roof, maybe a retextured one? Leading to the idea that these won't be *that* different to everything else....

11 hours ago, LittleMe Jewell said:All this empty area between the 2 large sections leave me to believe they will eventually be filled in with more Stilt homes and/or more Houseboats. Otherwise, why not make them water regions also? The ones marked with a red dot are water regions, whereas the other 'blue' areas are currently voids.
Could be sandy campers also?

I still think the house in Patch's picture looks like a traditional English or European cottage (or maybe a farm house). Just for fun, I thought I would have a go at building what I think it might look like (within the restrictions of the textures and building bits and bobs I had available to me in my inventory!) Of course, the moles would do a much more professional job than I have...😄
A rustic farmhouse look would be lovely, but you would not find the door in Patch's example in a countryside setting, it is a 'townhouse' style. That is what is so puzzling!

Why does this matter? Because! Nika has no property, and very few homes are showing on the land page! Resume hopping, people, otherwise I'll have to clean behind the bookcase in my RL kitchen!
And NOBODY wants to do that.
Now is your opportunity to grab an old continent linden home and see what you can do with it!

I can't resist fiddling with decor!
I've added some bits and pieces.
A reminder that I've derendered a neighbour's house for the photos (see original post for the 'before' shot).
You are welcome to visit. Any questions welcome.

I forsee a lot of game of homes in the future.
One category can mean a lot of different set ups. I'm personally not interested in a stilt home, that sits completely in open water and not really fond of one completely on land either.However, something with the butt in the water or attached to a pier would be great.
That would be my ideal too!

@Daniel Voyager do you know if we can use these railway lines? I am a little confused about how complete they are.

They look American, that's why it's been so weird. It's an americanised version of Bavaria, which is fine, it's was just so abstract though! (to guess I mean)
