Runic (Runes) Stop Sign (Set) - 100% Mesh, 10 Versions Version 2.0
*** 10% REBATE FOR REVIEWS ON THIS PRODUCT! Details below! ***
This is a standard North American stop sign, but with a twist: It's written in Elder Futhark Runes! This writing system was commonly used by ancient Scandinavian and Germanic languages, most notably the ancient Vikings, and often used for magical and spiritual inscriptions, a practice still in use in modern times. Great for bringing unique variety to your build, especially for creating a magical fantasy setting, or perhaps a modern take on Viking raiders!
There are two different designs included: One written in both runes and English (named "Runic Bilingual Stop Sign"), useful for mixed communities and as a teaching tool, and one written only in runes (named "Runic Stop Sign").
Additionally, all versions of the sign (including the ones written only in runes) have a small, simple, spam-free, open-source translation script: When clicked, the sign will IM the person who clicked it to give them the English text of the sign. This is mainly provided as a convenient backup feature for drivers/visitors, so that they can find out what the sign says even if the texture hasn't loaded yet, but it can be safely removed if desired.
There are five versions of each design included in the box (10 signs total!), all with mod/copy/no-transfer permissions, and all have a land impact of 1 or less:
- Metal Post: Metal sign mounted to a tintable stamped-metal post (an original mesh design by Lupinia Studios), like most road signs in North America. 100% mesh.
- Wooden Post: Like the Metal Post version, but with a wooden post instead, for a more rustic/rural look. 100% mesh.
- No Post: Just the sign by itself, to mount on a wall or if you have your own mounting solution. 100% mesh.
- Gentek-Compatible: Identical to the No Post version, but with the root positioned to perfectly align with the stop sign from the Gentek Road Sign Kit (purchased separately), to create a more unified look with the other road signs in your build. Detailed instructions below. 100% mesh.
- Wood Prim Post: Since the wooden post is basically just a standard rectangle, there's a non-mesh version included for those who would prefer a prim version of the signpost (the sign itself is still mesh though, and this version of the sign still has a land impact of only 1).

Thanks for your purchase! Enjoy!

GENTEK SIGN MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
---------------------------
Make sure you have a backup copy of both this sign and the Gentek stop sign before following these steps! Also, these instructions assume familiarity with the SL building tools; for additional help, contact Natasha Petrichor.
1. Rez the stop sign from the Gentek Road Sign kit.
2. Set every face except the post to 100% transparency.
3. Rez the Gentek-Compatible sign from this kit.
4. Copy the X, Y, and Z values from both the Position and Rotation sections of the Gentek stop sign, and paste them into the corresponding fields on the Gentek-Compatible sign from this kit. IMPORTANT: Do not adjust the size of either sign!
5. Once step 4 is complete, both signs should look seamlessly aligned with each other as if they were one piece. Done!
6. As an optional step, link the two signs together (select them both and hit Ctrl+L), and take a copy into your inventory, so that you don't have to do this more than once :)
