*Note this system is best for 4096 parcels and smaller or "spots of weather on larger parcels....this system has a 10 rezzer LIMIT. if you do not have an area of 18 X 18 to fit this rezzer in, we recommend a particle system. For a larger and more flexible system with resizing and 1/7 the prims, please visit https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/MY-WEATHER-CONTROLLER-rain-and-snow-for-sims-and-parcels/25578981
Why did we call this "Best Weather"? Because it's the best way to create the most realistic weather effect on SL.
Why was this system created?
Some real estate companies do not allow weather systems on commercial land for causing lag. I felt this was understandable but also something that needed to be worked around. The reason weather systems are not permitted for some is for the amount of lag caused by particle rezzers and the video lag created by the particles themselves. This system ONLY uses animated textures, producing a more realistic rain without causing server or video card handicaps.
As specified in the LSL scripting wiki - animated textures do not cause any lag.
WEATHER MODES - There are 3 modes for rain and 2 modes for snow plus thunder (with lightning) which can be turned on or off in each mode. Each mode uses a different realistic sound effect to match the rain. Puddles also are effect by which mode you choose to add realism.
Off
Drizzle
Light Rain
Hard Rain
Thunder on/off
Light Snow
Heavy Snow
CONTROLLERS
There are 3 options for controlling the rain for the owner by clicking on either:
1. Best Weather HUD - Gives Owner only usable menu.
2. Best Weather Umbrella Stand - gives Umbrella to any user and also acts as a controller for owner - others get an umbrella with no controls.
3. Best Weather Umbrella - Gives Owner only usable menu.
Features:
BEST WEATHER Rezzer is copyable and multiple rezzers will listen to commands from the owner all at once.
BEST WEATHER REZZER contains multiple prims for giving rain a surround sound effect while in the rain.
When rain is set to OFF....rezzer only uses 1 prim (7 prims when on).
BEST RAIN is NOT a weather system and does not use any particles - meaning it's lag free and will not bog down your video card.
18 X 18 x 24 meters per rezzer

Accurately named
Because it really is the best weather system I've ever seen in SL! The three stages of rain are brilliant and the snow looks very good (and realistically light and smooth) too. It's not super complicated with tons of option you'll never use, just a simple quality weather system that (unlike most) doesn't cost a fortune and won't lag your SL'ing.
dancing in the rain <3
Thank you - I needed that!
Softly drippling summer rain.. or maybe heavy rain with thunder even? no matter what kind of rain you prefer - or snow even - this one is simply great.
Realistic, smooth rain/snow for the perfect goose-bumps-feeling~*
Ofc with high quality sounds for the best experience. :)
Oh how I love to dance on our pier.. in the rain --*
Thank you very much ^^
One thing I would love to have if there are future updates - to switch the control to group or all.
I rezzed it at our home and can't start or stop it with my alt.
That would be a great add-on.
Other than that.. wonderful.
Spectacular
This is the weather to buy. Drop the box on the ground, wear the hud. Fascinating rain. Lovely little puddles on the ground. Play around with Windlight, you'll have extraordinary drama in no time. The size is great for smaller spaces. As long as you don't need a large area, you'll be happy with this package. It's priced rather well. I feel like I really got my money's worth.
BEST EVER!!!!
AMAZINGLY REALLLLLLLL WOWWWWWWWWWWW and u can put as many as u want out to make more rain the one hud works them all cannot believe this so brilliant!!!!!!!!!!
