Zelection ~ Tudor MESH Wall 3.0 Version 3.0
In total there are 60 pieces of MESH in this kit:
4 beams (straight and bent)
12 roof edges (4 variations of 3 themes)
44 wall sections (full, half and third size)
There are also 3 textures for each wall section. Apricot coloured, grey and a shadowmap.
These walls are based on old medieval tudor walls and are perfect for a medieval or fantasy setting. They come with full permissions out of the box together with a basic texture which I've found fit quite well with them. Along for the ride are shadow-maps and an extra set of textures.
Allmost all wall sections count as 0.5 prims, apart from the curved wall which is something like 2.5-4 prims. And the roof-edges which are more like 0.5-2. So make sure to link them together when you've finished modelling to lower the over all prim count.

User's License:
1) You may use these in your own builds and sell said builds on the marketplace as Copy/Mod/No Transfer.
2) You may use these in your own sim to build pretty things. However do not give the walls away to other builders.
3) Do not share the walls with others as they are in Full-Perm.
4) If you use these on the marketplace, it'd be nice if you mention Zelest Fall or Zelection. However that's not required.

These walls got many texture areas. That is so that you can set the individual beams to transparent if you so wish, to be able to better place them next to one another. You probably have the knowledge on how to do so, seeing how mostly only builders will buy this set, but here is a quick manual:
1) Edit the wall
2) Click Select Face
3) Click the beam which you wish to hide.
4) Select the texture tab
5) Set transparency to 100%
Also, this wall comes with shadow maps, my suggestion is that you save them locally and then open them in photoshop and simply add them by having the texture underneath and then select "Multiply".
There are other ways to do it as well. You can also go into levels of the shadow map layer and set the brightest point to 128 instead of 255. This will make the shadowmap gray out, then select "Overlay" instead of "Multiply" and it will add beautifully.
Here are most of the pieces in an easy-to-use map of items.

Anyhow, have fun with this set and do feel free to IM me if questions occur. I mostly will not do requests for other pieces, since I sort of have had enough with Tudor MESHes for a while now =P

Awesome!
very easy to use. the textures fit perfectly. the pieces adapt to every construction requirement and their impact is adequate
terrific set + outstanding customer service
well, where to start? I have bought a ton of medieval house building kits and this is hands down the best. I cant put my finger on it, but it just has a much nicer aesthetic than any of the other sets I own.
The pieces are super easy to texture and very low PE, which brings me to my only complaint *dont worry, it has a happy end! :P*
The LOD of the window sections are in my opinion a little too flimsy. They all but disappear past a certain cam distance, and this enables them to be 1 PE each, but I would rather pay the extra prims and have solid windows :)
I contacted Zelest, and within half an hour she whipped up a set of higher LOD windows and sent them over to me. Wow. You wont find many merchants that responsive. The new windows are 3 PE and rock solid. I love them to bits and you can get them from Zelest upon request.
If I could give more stars I would without hesitation. I know I will be a regular customer at this store. You should be too!
