Gotta love that quick, one word answer.
And it's true. There is no more.

Just make sure the build is fully submerged and it'll have nice crypt/dungeon lighting.

but you can edit you settings for windlight, increasing underwater visibility and use an invisiprim (does that still work?) at the waterline to remove the visible transition

From: Void Singer ...invisiprim (does that still work?) It surely must work, otherwise it would not be possible to squeeze an avatar foot in a high heel shoe

And it's true. There is no more. "No" would have been sufficient. The "pe" on the end was superfluous. And most likely a major cause of lag. Man, what some people will do to increase their characters posted rating.

From: Dekka Raymaker The moles did it in Nautilus, they have a dry dock that's under the water level, using a invisiprim. Yep. Problem is that invisiprims also hide all the non-prim bits of avatars and any texture that has any transparency. It is indeed a neat trick but it's not good for places where you want people to go. Note that the mole building in Nautiuls doesn't have the dry dock invisiprims set to phantom.. |

well if the whole thing is under the water level, it's not a big issue, although if accessis through that particular area, then you'd probably want to limit where it can be seen from eith above or below (like having that area off to theside or something)
wasn't 100% about the invisiprim, as I hadn't played with water blanking since I changed to a windlight viewer... was sure if there'd be a behavior difference
one drawback to increasing underwater visibility, it's increased for all underwater (plus it only affects you)... on the plus side, it doesn't really affect how the water looksfrom the top.

I have a subterranean lair. The opening from above is rather small, so with a thin .5 meter invisiprim at water level, it works well. Any unwanted effects of the invisiprim are minimized by the fact that the SL default camera position is about 5 meters behind you and 3 meters up, whereas the opening in this case is about 2 meters diameter. Entering, at the point you are crossing the water level, the camera cannot see the invisiprim hiding you.
