As for the islands... This was tough, and I'm pretty sure the bottom-left is wrong somehow. Best I've got for now.

UM....were some of those pics of islands? several islands? which means...
When your sitting over on your private island you can look over an expanse of water that can onl;y be crossed by teleport and see the other islands. umm...is the draw on these infinite? my jaw has slowly dropped as the day has worn on. Also...I tried out the max draw today on a private sim and was amazed at the clarity WITHOUT THE LAG.
So...we may not have the full version of this renderer...but I think LL tweeked it for us.
I am soooo tired ...so I might not be making any sense here but I am amazed.

Heya guys...put your draw distance all the way up and see what happens. Note the amount of lag or what not. I don't seem to be experiencing any lag whatsoever with it all the way up. This is the first time in my SL that I have been able to do this. This is amazing. took this pic just now. I know..its an empty sim...but go ahead and try it anyways. And ya..thats my little av lost in the middle of nowhere...lol

Wow, we are almost there, but it has been a long run. Take a rest on the benches at the welcome area, but be careful you dn't sit in ...anything.

I created a perspective-adjusted map and put it side by side with one of the screenshots to get an idea of how far it is drawing (by looking for matching land details)

http://pantherweb.org/sl/re2/

It looks like this screenshot is showing stuff from 16 sims away. That's 4096m of draw distance, and showing over 200 sims in one shot. =)

West 4 Swap Card is in Rosedale, and West 2 Swap Card is in Misso...

I've already tried them, they gave me linden cards instead :rolleyes:

Need someone else to try to grab them so we can get the whole set.

There are 4 pics under the benches at the WA. They're so close to the ground I couldn't get a good snapshot of them. So instead here's the screenshots of the textures in edit mode. :D

Now we need to find the other West Swap Card...

w00

works for me!

Well then, it is 11 o'clock - one hout left - one might say it is time to hit the road, or at least if you want to get all of the screenshots. Plus, as a bonus, I will throw in an extra one if you manage to get all 8
