KinEx - Texture Organizer V2
So this is V2? does that mean new features??
New Features and more new Features!
In fact, i've nearly doubled the features of the previous version, even adding scripts that allow you to use textures in the organizer without taking the texture to inventory!
Then there's the networking, which allows you to have 2, or 200 organizers rezzed, and all of them can transfer between each other just as if you were performing the transfer on one organizer!
Also, the organizer now supports NO-MOD Textures and Sculpts. No longer will you have to curse at creators (or me!) for not releasing No-Mod textures!
Oh, and have i mentioned Expandable Categories yet? no.. i don't think i did.. WELL! Let me tell you.. One of the pains with the old/other organizers, is the limited number of Categories!. So i've gone ahead and solved this little problem, with Auto-Expanding categories, all the way to 168 possible categories! And if that's not enought to hold your mother of all texture collections. Just rezz another organizer, They're networked! So why not have a dozen 168 category organizers! (overkill, i know right? Better to have the option though!)
Do you work in a group building environment, and find yourself needing to transfer textures/sculpts to your partner? Well now, i've enhanced the old Category Package with a script!, simply create the Category Package, give it to your partner, and they'll be able to simply Click the package and transfer its contents straight into one of their categories! No transfers to inventory, no mess.
Ok, nice start... Now tell us the full feature list!
Ok, ok.. so here's the full list:
* Sculpted and Texture categories, which are Saved per category

Unlike other organizers with the Click and Hold method, to get your menus with the K-TO, simply double click. Although all the common use parts of the system are not menu based, eliminating any slow downs. This system is designed for fast easy browsing, while still boasting all the features you'd expect from a top-level organizer.
With the permission system, you're able to set access up for the active group, the userlist (which is stored in a notecard), Public Access, and then retrieval. When Public mode is enabled and Retrieval is disabled, public users can only view textures or sculpties, not take them. They are also unable to make any changes to the organizer. In order to protect you from a drive-by deletion, the system only allows group and userlist members to delete single textures, and only the owner can delete an entire category.
(keeping in mind, if it's set to owner only.. the group and userlist can't even use the system, let alone delete anything)
To use as a HUD, simply wear the organizer, and it will scale itself down automatically to fit. When rezzed in the world, it will scale back up accordingly. Making it extremely handy when you're working with a restricted number of prims!
See item in Second Life- Helps you better organize your textures with expandable categories!
- Networked capabilities, so you'll never be restricted by categories or displays
- One organizer for both your sculpt maps AND your textures!
- Works rezzed and as a HUD! Take it anywhere!
- Advanced permission system to easily setup an organizer for Group builds!
Absolutely hands down the best texture organizer on the market and a steal at that. I don't know how I ever used any other organizer. I am now spoiled. Textures and sculpties handled with ease in one unit where I need seperate sculpty storage before.
Support is outstanding. I encountered a rare problem and the designer came to my site and fixed me up.
If you're a builder and buy no other product, make sure it's this one. You won't be disappointed.
Holy Mackerel! This is amazing! I've bought two other texture organizers and have a couple of free ones, so it's not like I'm impressed by the novelty. But the others I've bought were not as easy to load up. This was so easy to just drag a folder (or selected texture(s)) to a category button that I was able to fill one and organize it at the same time! It's fast, too. Switching between rezzed and HUD modes worked smoothly, and my friends were able to operate it (when rezzed). I haven't tried using it for sculpted prims, so can't speak to that.
And when I encountered an error message, Kindred Skytower came and explained what I'd done wrong (I'm hoping she fixes it, but it's not critical), told me how to fix it, and things were great again.
My only criticism is that it "would be nice" if the Delete button prompted for a confirmation (or "even nicer" if it could be configured to do so).
All in all, I very strongly/highly/enthusiastically recommend this for anyone who collects textures. I bought it for a sale price of L$600, which is less than I paid for at least one of my other texture organizers. And guess what--I haven't used the previous one, because as powerful as it is, the speed was not like this one, and the ease-of-use was not as good. This is an amazing device. Powerful technology, indistinguishable from magic.
I have to say, hands down, this is SL's BEST texture organizer. It is incredibly easy to use. I love how I can change from sculpt textures to textures just at the touch of a button! 51 prims is a bit heavy BUT you CAN wear it as a hud and still add textures to it. The only time I can see wanting to rez it over using it as a hud is if I am looking for a sculpt texture that I need to see in 3d and dont want to spend the time rezzing a few until I find what I want. When worn as a hud, sculpties appear 1d. No biggie either way. Just like the ad says, this is packed with fabulous features and they are all easy to use. Well done ! Thank you and keep up the great work! $600L (introductory special price) July/ 09
HOly crap man this is the best organizer out there, ive bought dozens of organizers over my time in sl noe of them and i m ean NONE of them come close to this organizer, the ability to house both sculpties and normal textures, not to mention able to crate the sculpty prims is a god send no more needing two different organizers for your stuff, and the aboility to have it move or copy textures or sculptys from one catagory to the other holy damn, no more having to find the texture in a long list of textures take it out of one category and move it to another just a couple clicks and boom its done. if your looking for an ogrganizer even if your just using it for textures or just sculpties this is it believe me ive spent thousands of linden on them this is it i will never use another ever again. THANK YOU for an awesome job i will definately be keeping an eye on your work, if this thing would let me give more than 5 stars i would caus ei deserves more way more
By far one of the best scripted organizers that exist in the world of SL. With so many options on this texture organizer it is a must have for any serious builder. I personally love the resizing for HUD use and then back again for rezzing!! Not to mention the ability to configure the organizer to allow others to grab the textures too if need be, great for group building!
Im not going to tell you what it does, and other sale shit.
I just keep it simple, **** the rest this is the best!
Got it? , Well this Organizer is the Nr1 in whole Second Life if you ask me.
