This is NOT FINAL PRODUCT, It is just 3D model (shape), for builders.
Package includes:
- 2 (modify/copy/transfer) full perm skybox meshes;
- read me and user license;
Description:
There are two identical shape meshes in package. Difference in order of faces. Second version was add as request for having no inner faces being replicated outside, that can be usefull is some variations.
In brief it is simple hollowed closed cube with physics that allows to stay inside and not able to fall or pass through walls floor or roof. While it is pretty primitive item, it really took time to make it, cause making the same in different 3D programs for a very strange reason gives more land impact while this one twice less cost comparing to that results. It cose 0.1L while Blender made one is 0.26LI.
Physics cost in convex hull 0.2LI (you cannot stay inside), and prim physics shape is 0.5LI (set by default). This digits are for very precision builders, who keeps each prim, making SL better world without wasting resources, Using several such prims as this skybox (not required to use AS skybox, even as simple cube or support prim can) and manipulate physics can reduce several or even dozen of Land Impact prims in many prims linksets.
As this is hollowed cube shape, there are external and internal walls, 12 faces (6 internal, 6 external walls), but SL limitation is only 8 faces per one prim so were need a compromise, so some faces will use the same texture at once.
List of separate faces to change texture independently:
4 faces -green, red, yellow, cyan for internal walls*;
1 face - white for external walls*;
1 face - black for inner and external floor*;
1 face - pink for ceiling*;
1 face - lime for roof*.
*Ceil, roof, floor, walls, sides are relative and depends on mesh object rotation.
Example: If you not need 2 textures for ceiling and roof, upside down skybox, now you have 2 textures for internal and external floor, while ceiling and roof is the same 1 face.
Colors selected randomly, set all surfaces to while before building to be not confused with darker textures.
Hint: Use Shift+Alt+Ctrl+T when selecting a face to know it number, size of texture and size, if it requires for scripts you have. It is built-in any viewer function.
As this is skybox mesh by default inner and external walls made the way so you can apply for example ONE texture over all walls. It will give you not bad illusion of panorama. This is important to know if you ll use textures with text on it, you can wonder why text mirrored on some walls. It is a way panorama illusion achieves, just mirror texture scales in yours edit window.
There are no changes of shape or physics depends on distance for this mesh. It always will stay the same as in close looking.***
Caveats:
* This is mesh , so it requires MESH enabled viewer to operate with;
- Creator name (Silk Aeon) you CANNOT change. It is how any MESH item works in SL. Create prim and link this mesh to prim (prim must be root ). It is important yours customers/users not leaked to me with their questions that I may not know due of changes you made;
** If you add script or scripts inside, each script increase Land Impact +0.25LI per script. This is how SL works. For example this one prim mesh skybox + 3 scripts (0.5+3x0.25=1.25LI) will count as 1 prim, but if there are 4 scripts (0.5+4x0.25=1.5LI) is already 2 prims. This Mesh not increase LI itself even at max sizes.
***This mesh skybox engine. behaves like skybox made with same size regular prim.
- To be able to walk inside physics must be set to PRIM (comes by default in package), but remember if you using this mesh at sizes lower then avatar height. switch physics to CONVEX_HULL, that allows to reduce LI cost and keep sim from constantly needless calculation of PRIM physics;
- You cannot export model using this mesh to yours HDD, this is how SL works.
Yours personal license allows:
- To use content of this package as part of own creations;
- Keep transfer item in one of yours alts;
- Use inside SL.
License NOT allows, restricted:
- Resell, share, gift, transfer content of this package in any form of data to other person or more then one alt without setting permissions (no transfer) or/and (no copy);
- Use any programs, tools, viewers, services to transfer or backup out of Second Life grid;
- Basics of SL building not included in customers support, and I cannot explain it better then in thousands of video tutorials as well as on wiki.secondlife.com it written. You may also join any builders group (Builder's Brewery biggest, best and free to join and lessons).
If you not agree with current terms of use, you may not buy this item, this is what "user licensed" flag on modify/copy/transfer item means.
Thank you and wish nice time of building,
Yours NEKKA (Silk Aeon).
Wish you nice buildings.
