Here is a floating shiny beach ball you can move around your swimming pool with your mouse cursor or by hitting it with your avatar.
It will bounce off the swimming pool walls and rotate until it looses momentum and stops somewhere inside the pool.
Can be resized as you want. Just remember to repeat the texture only once horizontally and vertically.
Clear instructions tell you how to adjust the floating height of the ball to match your swimming pool water level.
On skyboxes and some regions the default script may fail to hover the ball properly. In that case try the Alternative version, set to float at 8 meters from the region or parcel ground.
First use the scriptless (Pixelwear) Beach Ball to position the ball where you want it in the pool and get the height value. Then go to ground level, rez the alt version and adjust the height as you need.
If you loose sight of the ball after releasing it in the pool and cannot find it using the radar, rez the "Delete missing ball" button and touch it to delete the ball wherever it is in the parcel or region.
If the alternative script fails to make the ball float at the right height you can place a static floating ball, included in this kit. You can move it using the arrows in Edit mode. It just won't bounce as the scripted balls do.

Does not work worth a damn
That it, i followed the directions to the word and it does not work as advertised.
ah.. well it floats
Common mistake i suppose. Assumed the ball floats on water' like a recent ball i had and lost. You get what you pay for, but be careful not to buy misleading ..titled products please.
ball floats just not water floats..
