Waiting for SL2? You now can already make mesh-models in SL, save them onto your hard-disk. Use them in SL, other games, or whatever. Build your own creative portfolio.
Celzium is an inworld mesh creation tool for SecondLife.
You can select from 32 mesh objects and create more complex build with these, Upto 8 different textures/materials are supported, includes UV-texturing and layout. Upto 200 sub-meshes can be rezzed and converted to a collada .dae file. You can upload into SL, or like blender and other 3D software packages.
I allow people to use, give away and sell the creations created with celzium (if using more then 2 building-blocks of this tool ) inworld, on other grids, to use for graphic & games, your portefolio.
(Selling or distributing the the individual building blocks of celzium I do not allowed at the moment)
And I would ask you to be wise about the distribution of your work, like giving it out copy/mod.
So it doesnt endup in a big biab-pile.
Although I work with standalone 3Dsoftware, I still love the ease of building and sketching in SL, for fine-tuning for certain models, I use like blender now and then.

The idea behind it is, easy to create mesh objects and builds. From beginning to more advanced builders. Its nice to have an inworld tool, from simple sketching, collision models for your more complex builds.. etc.
Can these shapes be cut like sl prims?
No, the shapes are individual types of mesh themself, low-poly mesh-objects including the UV-layout. They can be scaled/rotated/translated, like sculpties. In the future I want to add more mesh shapes and Celzium addons to choose from.
(There are some other tools around for 'normal' sl-prims to 3D-models incase you need that)
Needs:
Second Life client
You need land in SL where you can create and build, and can use scripts.
The tool itself is 1-prim, and 1 prim for each for every building block rezzed (max 200+)
Only the owner of the tool, can use it
A recent browser
To convert the data generated in celzium to a .dae collada file.
Current supports Firefox/Chrome/Safari/Opera with java-script enabled.

Great tool for inworld mesh creation
No complaints here. Cel is understanding, helpful, has tutorials available and this is just a really great product at a totally reasonable price. Short of learning blender or some other complicated program outside of SL...which I am so not going to do...this is absolutely the way to go!
Great product!
I bought this product already some while ago. Really great way of making mesh inworld. Now only thing i would like to see expensions. Their are way to les shapes my opinion. I would like to expand my limits to build with this system.
But again great product and really worth the money!
Best Ever
now i can make model for my club without paying a penny thx :D
Fantastic and easy to use!!
I am finally doing mesh thanks to this tool. It is SO easy to use and you can make a lot of different structures by combining the different shapes that are available. Thank you, Cel, for a great product. 5 stars from me .. what else?! :-)
Great product ... but
Great product, easy to use and understand, works like its supposed to, however, if you need support the creator never seems to be around .. so keep that in mind.
Great!!!!!!
Great product I have been looking for something like this!!!!
