How would you like the feature to work?

Would like to be able to change the wall color to the same colors already available as the rest of the other boathouse walls.

My understanding is this was a purposeful choice on the part of Linden Labs and no other boathouse has this "feature" which is more of a bug.

Would like to have the option of being able to re-texture walls using our own textures (select face).

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

Extremely important. The dark color is impossible to decorate with. Windlight settings do not help it. It's creates a black hole like appearance in a home which should be filled with sunlight since it's on the water. Many residents in Bellisseria are complaining about this and not using the Windlass because of this issue. It's a great home otherwise and an unfortunate that it is so difficult to work with.

Thank you for the consideration.

Please, please, please, please, please, make this change happen... and fast! The windlass is a great boat, but it makes no sense to have those navy walls that don't match any of the other color schemes.

I would like this change also. I was visiting a friend who has the Windlass. I'm considering going Premium again and would like to be able to eventually acquire a houseboat and the Windlass is my favorite model but this wall issue takes away from all it's other great features. It really is too dark and makes no sense. Thanks!

Even one or two more options on the accent wall in the Windlass would be a big feature improvement to expand decorating choices, thanks

I too would like to see this changed. If this was planned as an accent wall, that's fine. Just allow us to change the textures with the same options as the other walls. If it's not an accent wall, then this needs to change with the rest of the walls. Quite frankly, I'm not sure why this was a decision to begin with as having this one section of the houseboat say the same color is a feature not seen on any other home or houseboat in Bellisseria. This is somewhat limiting when it comes to providing the user choice over how to decorate their own Linden home as some choices do not match with the blue walls, not to mention how dark it can make the houseboat look in certain windlights.

Please let us change all the walls- I love a light palette - used a prim for the back wall (and a kit to make a bath)  but so dark near the window . https://gyazo.com/a276fb7c5f781e6e75288bfd06f07b2e 

 

Would also like these script messages when walls touched: [18:21] HB3: Touched Link 25( HB3 ) on face 0  to stop.

I thought this was a fault and was going to raise a ticket, but now I learn you have deliberately imposed a "black hole"? Why on earth have you done this? The Windlass model is perfect for what I want to achieve in every other respect, so please, please give us the same decorating options as the other models get.

I would also love to see this changed, at least so we could have it match the rest of the house.

I, too, have a problem with the navy wall and would love to see it become changeable. It really does darken the Windlass light colour schemes. Furthermore, it's also not included as one of the textures in the packs provided.

It's not great, mostly because the dark blue is dark enough to appear a mismatch with the (much warmer black) ceiling beams which in turn match the "black" choices for Trim and Accent Trim. The dark blue also wraps around under the wall where it comes in direct contact with the ceiling beam color for the full width of the house which is where it REALLY looks "wrong".

I also would like the wall to be changeable, or if technical issues prevent texture choices, make the fixed color  something more light and neutral like a beige (I already opened a ticket and am just adding comment to this JIRA).  If this could be fixed the Windlass would truly become the Houseboat of my dreams  :)

I agree, the dark non-changeable wall, does not allow for the freedom of decorating everything. It is also a very masculine looking color, and for those of us who want a lighter feel, it does not work. I love the design of this boat, I just wish we had the ability to have it "match" the rest of the textures.

Agreed!

I also had some issues with a wall i built to make a sort of separate space for the kitchen. I have one of the lighter colors on my windlass inner wall, i believe its bleached if i remember correctly, and none of the textures in the texture pack matched it.

The textures in the provide pack do not match for me either. I tried all of them and they are off in tone.

had to waste prims creating "wallpaper" to cover that front room wall and the cubbie as it just sucks the light out of the space despite windows.optins would be nicer as I get this is a "contrast wall" idea...but not all of us are very into that contrast look..
