So there must be some people who have been prepared for the release and just need to switch the lights on!

I just added some lights to Club Camarilla and did a little video in there. Wow! What a difference to before! Hope to post it soon (like tomorrow).

*keeping an eye on this*
I haven't seen a good, filthy rave warehouse since late '04... I'm hoping I'll come across a new one, one of these days--with the new Lighting system in tow. _____________________

I added lights to my photo gallery (Duke's Diggs - listed in places). It looks really cool at night with the stained glass windows and the different light colors.

It's just a shame that prims don't block light...
I can foresee "always night-time" islands becoming popular. |

I don't know if Rainbow Tower in Wainscot qualifies as "cool" but I have been putting in local lighting all over the place there.

Hehe, I just spent ages last night tinkering with a particle fire that flickers using the new light features (oranges and yellows), just to get the flickering feel as real as I could. I felt all warm and cosy. It's on Lucidity, near the middle of the sim if anybody wants to pull up a log (actually, I really should put some logs out for people to sit on)

I've spent the last few days coding scripts for lights. Now with the new lighting feature, I am extatic as to how my club is going to look.
Even came up with a way to sort-of fake the light put out by a spot light. Still cautious about how much local lighting I use though. With 2 spots, 3 orbs, two giant strobes, and more lights to come, I think if I put local lighting on all of them... at least *my* computer system would croak. |

Only the nearest 4 lights will be treated as lights, so people overstuffing lighting shouldn't really be much of an issue I suspect. However, less is definitely more with the lighting and it looks cool as beans  _____________________

Steve Linden, the primary developer for the new lighting, has some great examples in his castle in Westport, including a free script and information on using the new lighting system:

I've put some log chairs out around the camp fire now - the lighting looks great as it flickers on the chairs
Here's a slurl to it: Lucidity There's also a pic on Snapzilla here: Cosy Camp Fire PS> You can right click and buy the camp fire or log chairs for L$1 if you want copies. _____________________
