EEP Enabled Skies

9/2/2020

 
​Fred Beckhusen has made available DreamGrid 3.62 which is Firestorm EEP enabled.  We have installed this at Continuum grid and what a beautiful difference it has made.
We are able to adjust tones for the horizon and water, set a new moon or sun, add our own cloud texture and indicate how we want them to move across our skies.  What a phenomenal feature Firestorm EEP is.

​You can read about the Firestorm EEP (Environmental Enhancement Project) here EEP please read the excerpt below:
 
About EEP
As many of you know, Linden Lab’s Environmental Enhancement Project has been in the works for a long time and reached the grid in 2019. While the official SL viewer has had EEP for a few months, Firestorm has been working to eliminate bugs in our own implementation and streamline/improve the interface. While we don’t feel that EEP is ready for full release—in fact, it has not passed our QA yet—Linden Lab wants all SL users to have access to it, and many of you have been clamoring to use it.
 
EEP is a new environmental lighting system, a change from the previous Windlight system. Sky, Water, and Day Cycle settings are now saved as inventory items (assets), and can be created, copied, transferred, or sold the same as other inventory assets. 
EEP settings can be applied to the land by parcel or region owners, or to yourself as personal settings visible only to you.

With EEP, 
 
You can use your own sun, moon, and cloud textures.
You can customize the length of the day (yes—you can now have 24-hour day cycles!).
You can set different skies at various levels on your land.
Visitors to your parcel will be able to see all your customized settings.
You can import your old Windlights as EEP settings (many have already been imported).
Note: Windlight still works in viewers 6.3.9 and older, with a few bugs due to server changes.
 
It is a wonderful new feature, available with DreamGrid 3.2 available here:
Outworldz DreamGrid
 
Silent Refueling EEP is available free so that you can use it in your EEP enabled grid.  Thank you Fred, for making this available to us.
