Windlight settings, so fun to play with them…
Some time ago I posted some information about a Windlight sky preset that AM Radio had published in Flickr to share with everybody.
I think AM Radio had a great idea. Windlight is a great tool, it gives you the possibility of exploring light, shadows, it gives a totally new vision of Second Life and opens a new door for creativity.
Some days ago I was playing with different settings in SLsky and following the path AM Radio opened I’d like to share them with you.
First, and old known, Nostalgia: 
Here I’m using the Nostalgia sky by AM Radio, you can download it here, then follow the instructions at the end of the post to install it.
Sometimes I’m tired of the sun in SL, the weather is always perfect, so I made this setting, Storm:
You can download the Storm sky setting here, then install it following the instructions at the end of the post.
And finally one a bit trippy, he he he, but my favourite, Bright Life. Even the colors are no natural (at least in my RL life) I like it a lot.
Click here to download the Bright Life setting, then install it following the instructions at the end of the post.
All the settings can be downloaded in the BOX widget in the right column if you don’t want to open a new window in your explorer.
To install them follow this instructions:
- Download the files in the links up or in the BOX widget in the right side column of this page.
- Then move the file .xml to the following folder:
-
In a Windows PC move it to C: \ Program Files \ SecondLifeWindLight \ app_settings \ windlight \ skies
-
In Mac go to the Application folder or to the one you have saved the Second Life Windlight viewer, Ctrl+click on it and select “Explore the package” or something like that (sorry, my Mac OS X is in spanish). Then open the folders Contents, Resources, app_settings, windlight, skies and save the file there.
-
- Restart Windlight viewer.
- Select Nostalgia, Storm or Bright Life in the Sky Presets menu.
Sorry, i don’t know how to do in it Linux, but sure someone can comment here and give the info.
Come on, play with Windlight, share your dream (or nightmare) sky with all.

I love bright life setting Raul!I’m experimenting with unnatural colors myself lately.Thanks so much for sharing and you know what?Life is bright…and we couldn’t see that if there weren’t the darker moments…*hugs*
So true, Chrisy. We need the darkness to see the light, the sadness to see the happiness. *hugzzzz*
Hola Raul, gracias por dar estas instrucciones..aunque las prefiero en directo y en español, el otro día tomé sólo una con el dichoso reflejo, la tengo en la parte de fotos y las demás la verdad que no me comí el coco… tengo que ir a visitar el sitio que me has dicho.. empecé a practicar con el photoshop.. a ver como me va.. una vez más gracias! un beso.
Oh, Gala, gracias a ti
fue una buena conversación. Entiendo lo del español, pero la mayor parte de la gente que lee mi blog no lo habla así que elegí el inglés por eso.
A ver como te va, como tu has dicho.
Un abrazo.
LUB LUB LUB Bright Life!! I downloaded it and its super awesome! <3
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Triangle! Really glad you like it, just remember, share your skies with your friends, this way they can see the world as you see it.
I am distraught that i cannot use the new release!! Loved windlight but the new issue will not work fo rme.
Aww
I had a small problem with the new Windlight issue too (moreover all my settings were lost with the update and i have to reset all them). Really they need to fix still some things with Windlight, for example, i can’t take Hi-Res snapshots.
I loved AM Radio’s ‘Nostalgia’ setting, thank you very much Raul for sharing the ‘Storm’ and ‘Bright Life’ settings! I plan to take lots of shots with those!
Cheers.
Thanks, Simondo!!!
Mahalo for sharing these at Orange Island!!!
