Tien Llung, Jetty

The Jetty is another part of Tien Llung. I am starting to realize that some of the more feature-laden sims will require several days to document properly.

The Jetty is amidst a set of sand islands with holiday homes. I took the offer to sail the SG Marauder... but I only got the message "Sorry, Object is in the way".

This area is fairly typical: seaside benches, alcoves, waterfalls, carpets with pillows for resting, pose balls for cuddling... and a nice one: "Laying reading".

A nice touch inside an alcove was a Roman-style klinai, with some nice fruit and a drink, albeit without a pose for adequately using the klinai.

The waterfall, however, was interesting: it was AngelX Wingtips' "Isle of Romance". Clicking it, a menu appears, allowing the user to select from various poses balls and anim balls. If one "sits" on the ball, the menu can be used to change positions and animations: "neck", "gaze", "chat", "kiss2", "embrace", "makeout", "reflect", "layside", "relax". There are also convenient options to "SWAP", so that partners change side, and "STAND", just to make both partners stand upright in a single click. Simple, easy to use, and not requiring heads-up displays.

Other items included a dance area, with slowdance balls, chairs, cabins. A lovely couple posted their own love picture on the outer wall of the cabin. A similar painting was hanging inside, entitled "My Angel & Me". It belongs to Dog Horten, born Dec 31, 2007. The other is Cowgirl Lane, born April 27th, 2007, the owner of the Christmas tree (she has a picture of the couple in her profile). From her profile:

Congratulations, Dog and Cowgirl!


They have a cosy living room with a Christmas tree, and a button to tint windows, from fully transparent to black, over various options of darkness. Nothing against camera controls, of course, but enough to convey a feeling of privacy when so desired.

Well, since the door was open, I don't think they will mind me visiting. I went to the bedroom and I noticed roses on the bed. And it is a scripted bed, "Akaesha's Evening Champagne IDX 5.0 Bed". Click it and a menu with various options pops up. For instance, coloured steam, pose balls, but also other options, like foreplay, sexual poses, and even the option of getting delivered to your avatar various kinds of sexual props.

Moving on to the other beach house, not much is unexpected. For instance, a common kitchen. It would be nice to have various options for cooking or preparing a meal for friends, but none where found:

The fireplace was automated, though: a control allows one to turn the fire on or off. There was also another controller, to drop or raise blinds: Galland Homes' Home Controller Key. Other common items were a hot tub with pose balls,and a pool outside.

Going outside, Shen Lung was just nearb, so off I went.

NOTE: as I was preparing to leave from Shen Lung to Transsilvanien, later today, Cowgirl Lane showed up. But I was departing, so I didn't chat.
