How to install :
- If you havent tried rezzing huge prims on your sim or land before we strongly recommend starting with a coral reef size that is small.
- Try the smallest 10x10 first. Get familiar with the "/1 Coral Reef" command and the popup menu.
- When you are ready to expand your sim or land with a huge size, find the center of your land. This will be where you will place your item. For example, if you own a full sim that will be at 128,128,0.
- Pick the size you want to use from your inventory and rezz it in front of you. Right click and choose EDIT in the Pie Menu.
- Next, in the EDIT menu choose the OBJECT tab and put the center values for your sim or land in X and Y ( X=128,Y=128). The Z-axis is automatically set at -0.06 below water level by default , but you can change this value too, as you please. Your Coral Reef Substructures is now installed and ready to be fine-tuned.
- In Local Chat, type in the menu popup command: /1 Coral Reef . If you are less than 10 meters away from the Coral Reef center, a popup menu now will appear. If not, then shout the command into your Local Chat. If nothing happens, make sure you actually are situated at the center of the Coral Reef and try again.
- When the Coral Reef SwitchBoard menu appears, start viewing by zooming out so you can see as much of the Coral Reef Substructure as possible.
- Click the submenu "Coral Reefs" and choose the reef of your preference.
- You can now go back to the MAIN MENU and fine tune the reef texture by adding more or less Intensity, brightness and glow. You can even have 5 pre-defined colors to choose from!
- When playing with the many settings, please remember to adjust the Coral Reef Substructure in HEIGHT ( Z-axis) to see how your choices visually affect the surrounding items.
- You can rezz more than only 1 Coral Reef Substructures on your land. If you do, we recommend you store the local positions of each Coral Reef Substructure in a notecard for future reference.
If you have problems of any kind, please feel free to send a note to Lie Rang or Dahlia Jayaram.
Congratulations with you new Coral Reef Substructure Vol 2 sim expand! We hope you will enjoy our product!

Great
I thought I'd make the effort since the last review was 10 years ago lol. This is pretty awesome, I think the cost could be a little lower but it does what it says and is really effective. I think a HUD would be easier but the channel commands works just fine too. I don't know if it was mentioned (I might have missed it sorry) is that for the best effect I turned off ambient occlusion to sort the flickering with the SL water and other water effects I am using. This has clearly 'aged' well so I would recommend. :)
This product absolutely made the difference in my island sim! Lie was extremely helpful in setting it up, offering her time and expertise. So far everyone thoroughly enjoys my sim when they visit, and it gives me great pride to recommend MnM Designs to others looking to have incredible waters! 5 star product!!!
