Ethereal Echoes is a fully scripted ambient hover text system designed for creators who care about mood, atmosphere, and subtle storytelling. This is not a gimmick script. It’s a quiet presence—something that sits in a space and slowly changes how that space feels.
At its core, Ethereal Echoes cycles through up to 200 stored text memories and displays them as floating hover text above an object. Each line fades out smoothly, transitions to the next, then fades back in. The result is calm, deliberate, and immersive. No menus popping up. No chat spam. No interaction required from visitors. It simply exists and does its job.
This script is ideal for builders, club owners, artists, gallery curators, roleplay environments, memorial builds, meditation areas, and anyone who wants to add emotional texture without noise.
What makes Ethereal Echoes different
Most hover text scripts are static or abrupt. They change instantly, repeat too fast, or demand interaction. Ethereal Echoes is built around pacing. Messages linger long enough to be read naturally, then fade away like a thought passing through the room.
The fade logic is smooth and lightweight, using a timer-based alpha transition that avoids harsh flickering or sudden jumps. This makes it comfortable to look at for long periods and suitable for low-key environments where distraction ruins the mood.
You control the content completely. The script ships with 200 poetic memory-style lines as an example, but these are placeholders. Replace them with quotes, lyrics (within Second Life limits), thoughts, prayers, story fragments, diary lines, rules, lore, or atmospheric narration. The script doesn’t care what the text is—it treats everything the same.
Designed for real Second Life use
This script is optimized for long-term use in live regions. It does not rely on listeners, dialogs, sensors, or heavy loops. Once dropped into an object, it runs quietly in the background. Visitors don’t need to click anything. There’s nothing to break.
Hover text is shared region-wide, meaning everyone nearby sees the same message at the same time. That makes Ethereal Echoes perfect for shared emotional moments—clubs during slow sets, galleries during exhibitions, or roleplay areas where the environment tells part of the story.
Because it uses standard llSetText, compatibility is universal. No attachments required. No HUDs. No special permissions. Just rez, drop, and go.
Easy customization, even for beginners
If you can edit a notecard, you can customize this script.
All messages live in a single list. Add, remove, or replace lines as you want. You can use one message or the full 200. The script automatically loops back to the start when it reaches the end.
Timing is simple to adjust:
Change how long a message stays visible
Make fades slower and more cinematic
Speed everything up for busy spaces
Color is just as easy. One vector controls the hover text color. Set it to white, warm candle tones, neon colors, or muted shades to match your build. Alpha is handled automatically during fades, so you never get harsh transitions.
No external configuration files. No menus unless you choose to add them later.
Full permission for creators and resellers
This script is sold with full permissions. That means:
Modify freely
Include in builds
Bundle with products
Resell as part of a system
Customize and brand as your own
It’s suitable for personal use and commercial projects. If you sell prefabs, art installations, club systems, or RP environments, Ethereal Echoes fits cleanly into your workflow.
The code is clearly structured and commented, making it easy for advanced scripters to expand—randomization, owner menus, day/night modes, or region-based triggers can all be added without rewriting the core logic.
