"Captured Heart" barbed wire choker / collar with hypergems ( unisex )

Thank you for your interest!

This is a tiny splendid and nicely crafted barbed wire choker, which may be used as a collar as well. Suitable for roleplay in gorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrean, goth, neko, furrie and other RP communities, or may be worn as a jewelry piece.
The central feature of the choker is a stone heart which changes textures on click in random order. Nine stone textures are included as shown on the second image.

The choker is FULL MOD - I don't torture my customers with no-mod jewelry resized by horribly inconvinient resize scripts. It has COPY/NO TRANS perms.

The choker is provided as a free gift from Inca Temple.

TIPS TO GET THE BEST POSSIBLE LOOK :

Few steps might be needed to achieve the best possible look of the jewelry:

a) First, make sure that "Bump Mapping and Shiny" is enabled in your graphic preferences. The set is designed to look decent even with this option disabled (for owners of old slow PCs), but you'll see a world of difference when you enable it.

b) Then, if you see that the choker looses it's shape when seen from distance, you will probably need to debug LOD as explained below:

1. Show the "Advanced" menu with Ctrl-Alt-D, or Opt-Ctrl-D on a Mac.
2. Select "debug settings" near the bottom.
3. In the blank space, copy and paste the word:

RenderVolumeLODFactor

4. Setting it to 2.00 will fix this set; I recommend setting it as high as 4 to get all your sculpts looking great.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The set is made of high quality sculpted prims. There is a bug is sl related to sculpted prims. It's not frequent and usually doesn't happen, but if it does happen to you - I have a ready solution to fix it. Read below.

Sometimes the use of large number of sculpted prims may cause a certain bug which is called "a bug of disappearing prims".
Even though from distance the item looks flawless and gorgeous, when you zoom in you may notice that some of the parts are missing and the item looks inccomplete. When you zoom out, the item seems to be back to normal. This is a known bag which is related to last viewer version and it's not in any way related to structural integrity of the product.
It may be easily fixed if you complete the following steps:

1. Show the "Advanced" menu with Ctrl-Alt-D, or Opt-Ctrl-D on a Mac.
2. Select "debug settings" near the bottom.
3. In the blank space, copy and paste the word:

renderMaxNodeSize

4. Bellow you'll see a number - the default value is 4096, setting it to 6000 or above will fix the problem; I recommend setting it as high as 6000 - it is usually enough to eliminate the problem.

(You might have to wait up to 30 seconds after adjusting the value to see any effect. Be patient.)

WHAT IF THE ITEM IS NOT VISIBLE OR IS "INSIDE" THE BODY WHEN WORN?

There is 2 types of solutions, the first i developed myself, and the second found somewhere on slx.

Solution 1:
attach the item you couldn't see to another part of your body (pelvis or nose work best) and if visible, select it and move forward from your body. Then detach it and reattach to the part you need. It should appear somewhere around, so you can select and adjust it.

Solution 2:
*Go into edit mode then drop the necklace on the ground beside you. While still in edit mode right click the necklace and click "wear".

*Your avatar will move toward the jewelry and put it on... only you will still have the jewelry selected with edit menu so that you may position it properly.

*(NOTE: Do not stand on a posing stand until AFTER you have attached the jewelry in edit mode because your avatar has to be able to walk toward the jewelry to attach it.)

*Once it's positioned where you want it, detatch it and wear it again from your inventory to "memorize" the proper location. After doing this it should fit perfectly every time it's worn.
