I've finally had a chance to work on my maps again. So here's an update for second quarter 2008. BTW--I'm looking for more "Points of Interest" on the Heterocera Atoll continent, so any contributions of such would be appreciated. These new versions should show up inworld on your kiosk.net map clients within a day. I hope to have time to do some new maps this summer, too. Linden Lab Mainland Continents Changes: Added newly completed section of Jeogeot continent Added remainder of Corsica continent Added Gaeta continent Added new Bay City sims to Sansara Slightly compressed space between eastern and western continents so as to fit map on 1024x1024 image.   Sansara & Heterocera Atoll Changes: Added Bay City region Removed Imperial Forest LM (sold by owner) Added Forest of Kahruvel Added Infrared Wind road network overlay  |

I recently added a couple Heterocera Atoll points of interest to what was the SL History wiki. Here's four more for you: The Great Wall Griefer containment pond (No page: this is in the sim below calleta, on the shoreline) Vicinia Quay Zygaena Crater More information is at http://secondlife.wikia.com/wiki/Heterocera_AtollNice seeing the roads on there. Any chance of getting route 66 an route 50 added? Mari

I noticed the other day a smaller island appearing some way to the north-west of Gaeta, whose regions also had the provisional tags of 'Gaeta'.
Great map - I've had a copy on display at my place for a long time.

From: Conifer Dada Great map - I've had a copy on display at my place for a long time. Likewise, it's been a regular feature on my workshop wall for as long as it's been around, and had led me to many great explorations. Mari

From: Marianne McCann I recently added a couple Heterocera Atoll points of interest to what was the SL History wiki. Here's four more for you:
The Great Wall
Griefer containment pond (No page: this is in the sim below calleta, on the shoreline)
Vicinia Quay
Zygaena Crater I have two of them listed (Great Wall and Zygaena Crater), but I will be looking for the others. Thank you. From: Marianne McCann Nice seeing the roads on there. Any chance of getting route 66 an route 50 added? I had no idea that any of the linden roads had been assigned names or numbers. I will look into it. BTW--the road overlays are all from the work of Infrared Wind that he generously shared with me. I added a credit line on the map. |

Maybe Gaeta will be larger and less boring than it looks From: Conifer Dada Great map - I've had a copy on display at my place for a long time. Thank you very much. |

From: Carl Metropolitan Is there a list of these route numbers anywhere? Route 50 - Noval Albion to Shermerville Route 66 - Bay City to Ahern Route 1-6 - see http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Department_of_Public_Works_Roads -- note that to the best of my knowledge, only Route 1 is currently being worked on, and none of these are currently completed. Route 6 appears to be the Great Wall. In another thread I had asked about other possibly numbered roads, but the above seen to *currently* be it. Mari

From: Carl Metropolitan I will check that out. Maybe Gaeta will be larger and less boring than it looks It's a completely separate land mass North of the eastern side of Corsica. There are about 120 sims in it at the moment, with the usual sharp cutoff where more sims will be added. If they continue it Eastwards above Geata, they will maybe have about 700 or 800 sims in this new continent. So far the coastline has a little bit more event than Gaeta.

From: Dakota Tebaldi Hey...I can see my house on that map. Seriously! I can see my home sim, at the least. I'm on the Eastern edge of Southern Islandia. From: 3Ring Binder i didn't realize Bay City was on Sansara. isn't that a class 4 sim? so, slower? I believe all the new sims are Class 5. Continent != sim Mari

I'm on the northeast corner of a little island just above the first "e" in "Hidden Lakes Region". |
