IT'S FINALLY HERE!
Could it be? A Rental box that just may be better then hippoRENT? Finally everybody can move on past the annoying parts of hippoRENT which till this day has been almost the only worthy rental system out there. If you like hippoRENT better then my Rentcubes, i'll REFUND YOUR MONEY! I'm so sure you'll like my RentCubes that i'm willing to refund the purchase price in full if your not satisfied. What do you have to lose???
FEATURES -
☼Cheaper, faster, easier, and more customizeable then hippoRENT
☼No rent-time limits (wtf, why exactly does hippoRent limit you to 3 weeks?)
☼Give a virtually unlimited amount of people access to the RentCube setups (for managers, owners, security...ect)
☼Manually setup a renter with just their name!
☼Setup before & after positions, size, alpha, and color! (can go almost an unlimited amount of distance when rented)
☼Uses NO hovertext, textures change accordingly (#1 below)
☼Easily add/subtract days
☼Option to quickly copy settings to other RentCubes
☼Super easy to use menu driven system
☼Extreme low lag design -ALOT less then hippoRENT
☼RentCube goes into "overdue" state, does NOT simply reset and wait for somebody to steal the stall! (#2 below)
☼Quickly change the basic settings to allow special deals
☼Smart Text! (will never say something like "you have 1 days left")
☼No "server" needed. Each Cube runs itself! (aka less prims & less lag)
1.) Changeable textures
The RentCube comes with 4 colorable textures (Rentable, Rented, Overdue, Reserved). You can remove these textures and throw in your own for it to use. Simply name them the same and it will start using them. No hovertext also means less spam to renters, as their name is not displayed anywhere on the RentCube.
2.) Overdue status
If you've tried those other rental systems, you probably have seen people get ticked that just because they accidentally got one day behind in rent and now somebody has rented their stall right out from under them! Well no more! Now after the time passes, the rentcube goes into "overdue" mode which sends reminders to the renter (and optionally an overdue notecard) and also sends reminders to the owner of the RentCube (first name/key on the access list). If days are at -2 and the person pays a week's rent, they go to +5 days...ect. Better all around!
3.) No notecard settings
Although this is nice for alot of stuff in SL, it isn't for rental systems! Because of the limitations of SL, only the owner of an object can edit the notecards inside, even with edit rights given on your buddies list. RentCubes use a totally menu driven system for both easy setup, and to allow an "access" list of people who can edit the RentCube settings at any time.
HOW TO:
-First you drop the RentCube, it reads the access notecard and converts names to keys if needed. You can also just use keys for a faster more reliable load-up every time.
-Next somebody who is on the access list can touch the RentCube which is in Settings mode. This brings up menus which ask you for all the settings. Once your done, you can optionally copy the majority of the settings to other rentcubes using the copy functions.
-After your done with the settings, the RentCube will enter Running mode which means anybody can pay to rent. Anybody with access can optionally touch the RentCube at this time to be able to manually setup a renter, reserve it for somebody, or enter Settings mode again.
-People without access who touch the RentCube will be given a "rental information" notecard. They can right click > pay the RentCube at anytime.
-After somebody has rented the spot, they can touch the RentCube at anytime to receive basic information such as, how many days are paid for.
-If the RentCube somehow becomes bugged from lag, script backups, or anything else... There is an option to recheck the renter's uuid which can be used at anytime. It fixes the key if it's not correct which will help get things back on track.

Definitely the best, also easy to use!
Wow very nicely setup! Super easy to use and worked perfect for me. Looking forward to checking out the other stuff you've made. Well done.
be warned i bought this item and it did NOT work when i tried to contact the maker by IM and NC i got nothing back... EXTREAM waste of 800Ls
I purchased this box in-world already but I bought it again here just so that I could comment on this magnificent product!
The box is driven entirely by SL's built-in menu and is VERY easy and VERY FAST to set up! Once it's rezzed, it merely asks a series of simple questions to collect the data required to set it up...and that's it!! It's over before you know it!!
Making a whole set of these boxes for you land is incredibly simple too! Just rez however many boxes you need, and use the menu to set them to listen mode - then edit ONE of them and use the menu to send the data to ALL boxes that were set to listen.....and again, thats it, you're done!!! Is that cool or what?!
Using Hippo, I spent about FOUR HOURS setting up 60 rent spots in my last store - Maybe I missed some useful function or didn't understand the system, but that's how long it took - but with this system, IT TOOK FIVE FRIGGIN' MINUTES!!
At that point I had to delete all of the vendors and start over!!! I thought "It couldn't be so easy, could it? I MUST have missed something!" But no - I GOT EVERYTHING 100% CORRECT FIRST TIME!!
THIS IS THE EASIEST, FASTEST AND DOWNRIGHT COOLEST VENDOR SYSTEM I HAVE EVER BOUGHT IN SECOND LIFE!!! THIS IS A TOTALLY KICKASS PRODUCT AND FIVE STARS IS NOT ENOUGH!!!
