FAQ
-----------------------
Q: Why do some parts (other than glass) appear translucent?
A: Please update to a more recent version of your viewer.
Q: The rezzed parts appear flat and grayish.
A: Advanced Lighting Model is recommended. If you cannot enable the setting, use FULL BRIGHT on the interiors.
Q: How do I align the pieces?
A: Use snap or align tools in the edit panel.
For best results (especially for the 1m trim parts), use the small arrow to the right of "Snap" checkbox in edit window and set Units to 0.25m
Q: What are the stretchable pieces?
A: The trim edge piece be stretched your build so that you do not need to rez them repeatedly. Make sure "stretch texture" checkbox in the edit window is UNCHECKED before stretching so that the textures will repeat automatically according to size.
Q: Why are some included texture templates translucent?
A: Download as TGA and open with photoshop. The RGB channels store the actual colour texture while the alpha channel contains the glow map.

Tips
-----------------------
- To build quickly, first rez out all available pieces. Simply shift-drag pieces to duplicate and snap into place as you build.
- Check out the included sample builds to familiarize yourself with the function of each modular piece
- Angled trim edge pieces can be stretched to save land impact. Remember to turn off "Stretch texture"!
- To save land impact, try using the noLOD version of the pieces if you wish the scale the parts bigger, or to use them in small enclosed rooms where long render distance would not be required.
- Use a mix of Room Kit parts and the Reinforced Set pieces for more variety!
- Add point lights to enhance the shiny materials effects.

Well ya...
Looks great on the photos but poor inworld. Materials are not bad but the mesh objects itself look far not as on the photos. The lit wall parts do have a menue which makes a popup each time one accidently clicks to anywhere (any wall part of the whole building).
And the logo on each wall part really sucks. I have some other products of this creator and they´re good but this set was disapointing.
Completely useless for me. :(
More from the best in SL...
Another fantastic modular kit from the best scifi brand in SL. The pieces fit seamlessly with other Isil kits and offers a grittier look for those industrial builds. Highly recommended.
As good as everything else.
Seriously, if you want Sci-fi, then buy as much isil stuff as you can! :)
