Introduction
The Covey Rez Pro system can be used as an essential Pack and Rez system, as found in many Rez boxes. However, it can do much more than just being a rez box. This system can record and rez-sets of items.
For example, you might have different sets of furniture for a room. With the Covey Rez Pro system, you can easily and quickly switch between them. That is not restricted to just something room size. That could be entire regions if you wanted.
You also can rez and de-rez individual items. In addition to this, it is designed with nested rez boxes in mind. For example, you could have one rez box, which contains ten rez boxes. Each one can be rezzed and then automatically moved into place. Then you could re-order all the items from it, including a set of items or a single item.
API
There is a full Inbound and outbound A.P.I., which will allow a multitude of other functions, such as using it as a vendor's rezzing add-on. It also allows automated collection and repositioning of sim vehicles without the need to use temp rez, as is the usual case now. Everything can be automated and triggered by other objects in a sim. So, it can act as a full-scene switcher / Holodeck.
Absolute and Relative Rezzing Modes
There are two rezzing modes. Relative is the typical method for a rez box where the items will move around if the box moves. It also has absolute positioning which will return the items to their original position on the sim. The system supports SIMs of any size (opensim) and will allow you to rez all the way up to 10 km high in opensim or 4096m in Second Life. Underground movement is also possible. (In opensim this is server dependent). Complete checks ensure you cannot attempt to rez an item outside the sim boundaries.
Test Recording
There is a test record feature when recording item positions. This sends the items 500m into the sky, making it very easy to see which items have not been recorded and drop a script in.
Resource Conscious
The system has been coded from the ground up to be used in Opensim and Second Life. It is designed assuming that items will be left out. Usually, rez systems run a timer to detect the movement of the rez box. So does this system, but it can be turned off. The memory requirements have been kept to an absolute minimum, meaning there should be no adverse effect on your regions when using the system and leaving objects rezzed.
Listeners are only turned on when they are needed and disabled when they are not.
You can have as many Rez boxes out on one SIM as you like. Boxes owned by other people will not interfere with yours at all. With your own, the only limitation is that only one Rez system at a time can be set to record. Even that is made safe so that when recording is enabled on one system, any others in the same SIM will have recording disabled.
Non-Destructive – Doesn’t change the item
Description.
The system is non-destRUCTIVE for your items. Because it uses LinksetData to store settings and positions in your items, the item description remains untouched. Since many items use LinksetData for their own purposes, you can pack many more items than you can with other systems. This is also one of the reasons you can have nested rez systems.
Safety Features
Like all rez systems, packing and rezzing no-copy items can quickly end up with you permanently losing the item. Covey Rez system pro protects you against this by detecting it and refusing to record the item. Of course, you get notified. You are protected against dropping a script into the same item twice when packing items. Should you do this, the duplicate script will be detected and removed.
There are many other features to help you along the way. Keep reading to find them all, or just dive in and have a go.

Truly a game changer!
Love this system! The added features I haven't found in others like rezz sets and grouped items is a game changer. Being able to keep out one rezz box but choose between multiple layouts/venues/themes is nothing short of amazing. Pulling items that i cant link into my inv and adding them in grouped sets makes setting this up so much less cluttered and confusing. Lots easier to ensure nothing is missed. Never thought about using a rezz system for my personal house but now that I've used this professionally I can see adding all my holidays decor etc. in one to quick zap it all out and back up as needed. Business or personal this is an amazing product for anyone in second life!
