MODERN MODULAR SHOWER SET - BUILD IT THE WAY YOU WANT IT! - by Realistek - mod & copy

Shower gorgeously animated for 1 avatar, and can be used to supplement any standing poseball set).
This is a great warm up item (ie more classy than a dance pole in the bedroom)!

Land Impact 6 .. this is the item as shown in the images above which includes the shower & wc fittings, the
main wall/ floor, 3x side walls & glass wall & 2x trims.
Walls & trims have separate faces to shade/ texture/ alpha as you desire.
To make full use of this product would require you to be familiar with basic building and texturing in SL.
If you do not know how to do this in SL yet, this is the perfect time to YouTube!
Professional beautiful animations (Gael Streeter:)

Only 1 great script, and small texture sizes.
Does not suffer mesh collapse when you cam away.
Water and steam particles engineered to have very little effect on your 'frames per second'.

The set as shown above is the arrangement that suited my room, but texured in a light, mid or dark tile scheme.
You will recieve a copy of each of these in the box to get you on your way.

BACKSTORY
I recently bought and installed a nice skybox apartment.
For my visual enjoyment, I wanted a shower area for my gorgeous partner in the room next to the bedroom.
My apartment is light & contemporary, so I didnt want a claw footed bath or an overly animated or colorful/ textured shower.
But I did want something that made a female avatar look sublime and gorgeous (while i watched!).
So i searched for 'modern white bathroom' and such but found nothing useful.
Luckily, Im Zed Avedon :D !!
.. so i built something that i hope will be useful to you too!
It is for a single female to look extremely hot while showering.
It can also work with any 'standing cuddle or mat/hud' you may have.

NORMAL USE
Click anywhere on the Shower fitting, a poseball appears, click on it and experience the animations, sound & steam.
If nobody sits on the poseball it disappears by itsself.
If it says "rotate ON' in the Description Field, the avatar will sometimes rotate 180 degrees so you can see them better :)
(change the ON to OFF if you do not want that to happen)
The animations in Contents are played randomly, and steam build up is gradual.
Get off the poseball when you are finished showering.
The wc pan is just an unscripted prop, but accepts a default SL sit nicely, so you can chat with your friends.

OWNER USE
Same as the above if you click on the main upright shower fitting.
But if you are owner and click on the tap, other things happen.
If nobody is using the shower, you can turn it on or off by clicking the tap.
If anyone IS using the shower, they will be softly bumped off the poseball and the shower will keep going.
This leaves you free to get on another poseball that you or your partner has rezzed inside the shower.
As owner, you can also remove or add showering animations as you please. Reset Script to restart.

EDITING GUIDE

The small square water drain (outlet) is the root prim.
You can unlink & link as much to it as you like, but the drain must be selected last before it all gets linked.
After link changes, you need to 'Reset Scripts' on the item before testing it.

At the very least the drain must be the root prim for the stainless steel tap fitting and the poseball prim.
The poseball is named 'shwr_fpb'. Do not rename this (or the main fitting) or the object will not work.
Make the poseball visible and 200mm all round when you are positioning everything :)
It may be useful to know there is a small light dot on the poseball which should face the fitting to be the right way around.
In the end, set it up and test it out, edit, amend etc :)

A wall prim can also be used to create a nib wall if you want one. The plate glass is just a colored semi transparent wall prim too.
Full Bright is worth experimenting with for some faces (i use it here quite a lot as most of my apartment is set to it)
Texture repeats & rotations, color tinting/ transparency can all be done separately on all wall/ floor/ trim faces.
Some textures are in Contents to get you going.
I found it nice to tint some walls slightly darker to enhance shadowing effects.
Make 'Take Copy' backups as you go!

OK .. happy days! - Zed
