Old radiator Version 1

Weimar! Presents;
Old radiator
---------------------

*ABOUT THE OBJECT:
Radiators were invented in the 1850s and thanks to the mass production of cast iron versions, central heating became available to many.
I have made a reproduction of a timeless model that could be used in a Victorian, Edwardian or other 20th century setting but also in a modern apartment.
Because this is a mesh item it has the details of something that would normally use up about 30 prims but only counts as 1 prim.

*ABOUT ME:
I am a Dutch woman obsessed with history, in RL I am a researcher.
Europe in the first half of the 20th century, inspires me especially Germany during the Weimar Republic (1918-1933).
The objects I create are especially made for The 1920s Berlin Project sim where many of the tenants often have to live in small houses and bad neighbourhoods.
More below.

*SCALE:
Most avatars and sims in SL have a totally unrealistic scale.
I hate this.
My avatar is about 6ft, just like I am in RL, compared to most avatars in SL I look like a child.
I build a sim in a more realistic scale and compared to SL in general things here are small.
That means that the objects I make are made for realistic avatars, if they seem small to you this probably is because you are very big.

*INSTRUCTIONS
-Simply rez the item called 'Old radiator Mesh' by dragging it from your inventory onto the floor.
-Right click and select 'edit' to move it into the desired position by clicking and moving the coloured arrows.

*PRIMS/LAND IMPACT:
Land impact; 1 prim.
1.2 Download
0.6 Physics
0.5 Server

In short, they will only count as 1 prim but uses half a prim, that is why you can link it to another low prim object and together will still count as 1 prim.

*ABOUT MESH
If you make Mesh items bigger, they will usually start having a bigger land impact and cost you more prims.
The item should look good but from a certain distance it may look distorted.
To make sure you see mesh in SL at well as possible, you may need to change the settings of your viewer.
This generally isn't needed but if you think that mesh often looks a bit bad, you may try this;
-Click ctrl+D to add the 'advanced' tab to the options at the top of your screen.
-Click 'show debug settings'
-In the Debug Settings look for 'MeshMaxConcurrentRequests' and change the value to 128, this will not have an impact on how SL will work for you but it will make mesh look better.

*CONTACT:
You can always send me a IM with any questions you may have.

*WEIMAR!:
Is my shop, it sells stuff I've made for the 1920s Berlin Project, generally it is common, old simple stuff for poor people ;)
I have 2 shops outside Berlin, I only place my shops in sims I like and that somehow fit the theme;
