From: Waterstar Eilde Funny you should say that, 'cause 'plastic' was the word that sprang to mind about the whole continent. Quite disappointing too, having expected latex.

I honestly expected a B movie set with blinking "PORN HERE" lights or something. At least it wasn't that.
It's a bit posh actually, or they expect it to be so - check out the sim names. I thought they'd all sound like cast members from Boogie Nights.

From: Treasure Ballinger HI Jig, just curious as to 'where' you did it? out in the vast Zindra desert somewhere or in the info hub? lol Since that's all that's there yet, just curious...... I stumbled on a prepared place - NOT an infohub. But just think - HIS seed lies on the beach at Zindra ... ew. (And he wasn't a kid - he was age-verified and was 45 if he was a day)

I flew around Zindra quite a bit last night, and did find it to be a blank canvas which I expected. I like cliffs, and of course, found none of those. I did however find a spot that I loved, but I probably have no hope of actually obtaining it. I'm sure it will be snapped up by some big escort palace or something in the land swap. I just have to keep telling myself that I don't like to own mainland anyway.

From: Jig Chippewa It looks like a huge beach. Not very tantalizing. Bu I did meet a guy (NOT a newb) there and we did what Zindra is designed for so it cant be THAT boring. OMG, I could never do that there, the place is too ugly. BT |

I think maybe you are supposed to use your imagination and build wonderful things.

Now that I am sure I want in, I found several plots tht can work for me. Some more desirable long shots and some that I think are very modest requests. I will just have to wait and see how it all shakes out.

Is the Snowglobe viewer supposed to be up to date with the latest version of the version that has the changes for Zindra and adult content?
I ask this because the sims in Zindra are showing as Mature using Snowglobe. Seems like they ought to show a Adult.

The glow, it's blinding  Ok, what mole thought adding glow to everything was a good idea? And stairs that sound like firecrackers going off with each step |

From: Tiziana Catteneo The plastic roads with the prim line in the middle are awfull, they are also useless for vehicles since you can't turn with that prim line in the middle. Yes, I agree. It's hard enough to drive in Second Life without restricting vehicles to single lanes. Sim crossings are hell; one doesn't need extra obstacles. Also, whoever built the roads seems to like road LIGHTS. They're so bright they blow out all the textures of my vehicles and my avatar. - Infrared |

When I first visited there, I just figured a lot of avatars were still rezzing... at the side of the road... at perfect intervals. It totally creeped me out until I figured out Blooming Mole was just living up to his/her name, the bloom effect is overwealming LOL My guess, that mole has all their graphics set to the minimum. |

i think the dividers in the middle of all the roads in zindra is to keep vehicles from drifting into the adjacent sim and entering bordercross hell, seeing that the sim borders are down the middle of the roads. and any road intersection is actually the corner of 4 sims.
this obviously makes sense in a way to give a visual representation of the sim borders, making it all a nice neat grid, but it makes actual use of these roads moreless impossible :|

It hardly matters what it looks like as a blank canvas. It is soon to be covered with the most porntastic, vulgar, neon-lit builds SL can provide. It could be the most beautiful land in all of SL now. In a couple of months it would be hideola.

When are we getting the adult rated forum to go with Zindra?
NM I don't even want to think about THAT.

I've been to several mainland areas just before they started selling off the parcels. They're always nice. No lag. Wonderfully vacant. Enjoy it while you can.

I'm actually starting to like some of the architecture in Zindra, especially the building over the waterfall (very nice) and the hidden tunnels under the dam (I LOVED the Cthulhu style hidden room)
But, the roads and trees need to be replaced. Sorry, but they are ugly.

From: Feral Mistwalker LOL, I would love to see that It is flipping over like a turtle! I forgot about the rotation. I will have to take it back to the shop and drag race in zindra another day. |
