A holo-emitter for SL.

It’s similar to the holodecks you see in Star Trek - you click it, a menu comes up, you select a scene and poof! The scene appears in all its 3D glory.

I call it a “Holo-Emitter System.” I prefer that name because “holodeck” imples a room, whereas this system can fill an entire sim (unlike some other holodecks in SL, which are limited to a small region near the control center). It’s also different from a “holo-vendor” in that each scene can be made up of multiple unlinked objects. Lastly, if you move the holo-emitter 4 meters north (or whatever) and rez a scene, then the scene will also be moved 4 meters north: the scene’s position is relative to the holo-emitter.

The source code is open source (GPL v2.0).

Free, full perm? Yes please.
And it works great! And since one can modify the scripts, you can make it so there are multiple Emitters on sim that don't conflict with each other.

The only drawback is something I don't think can be fixed due it being hard wired in SL itself. large objects may not rez and go to position (and instead delete) due to "crushing" people - an anti grief mechanic I'm sure.

I love this rezzer! I followed the directions and am now able to create a lovely demo rezzer for my store

I did read the previous review of someone not knowing what to do .. this one is for you kind sir :)
Step 1
create a prim drop Holo-Emitter Script in it <this will be your vendor- your items will go in this)
Step 2
rez a item that you want to be displayed, (be sure it is 1 linked set,and name it shorter than 12 letters)
Step 3
Drop Object Script A, v1.0 in the item <this will store the location of this object so it knows where to go - this is why you need to drop this in AFTER you place it where you want it to show, relative to the vendor)
Step 4
Drop Object Script B, v1.0 in the item, this will place the item at that location we stored
Step 5
take the object to inventory, and put it into the box/vendor

you are done, this will work !

just repeat steps 2 through 5 with each item, this vendor will hold up to (but no more than) 11 objects*)

*objects can be one single item or a big linked set, aslong as it is 1 linked object

I have no idea if this works or not. Could not make heads or tails out of the instructions on the web site. Seller completely ignored all of my IMs and notecards.. The ONLY good thing about this is that it was free.. For all of you who got it to work, good for you. For everyone else thinking about it... it's not worth your time. IF I ever get an answer to my IMs I may change my review.

Best Product in SL

This system works really well. Not only is it FULL perm but it's FREE! Thank you for putting together a system that works great and is easy to use. The creator states it can not be used other than the original sim it was placed but it can. One needs to note the direction (alignment) of the prim that the Main emitter script was placed in originally (ie: N, S,E,W). If one moves their build to another sim with the Holo-Emitter and places it such that it faces same direction as it was first set the build will rez fine. Thanks again for this creation.

This is, without doubt, one of the best tools a alnd owner can have. So sad not many know about it. works as described and is free - what else can I say?
