Posh Curio / Display Tall Tables
See also the matching side tables.
Please check which colour you are buying on the key picture; the main picture is only representitive.
I wanted one myself, and the ones I bought, well... I wasn't happy with. So I made my own and as usual, they've ended up here on the MP.
These Posh Curio Tables are available in a range of finishes, from sumptious, polished wood and marquetry to assorted marbles, Mother of Pearl and even a bit of leather. The metallic trim is available in five types (including none) and...
EVERY TABLE comes with a texture menu to change the trim. So, even if you just buy one, cheap, no-mod table, you really get five. Trim colours are gold, silver, blackened silver, polished redwood, and none.
Please see the numbered advert pictures to check which you are buying. The Fatpack has them all (and has MOD perms!)
The textures make full use of advanced materials, with normal, specular and specular intensity maps to make them really stand out.
Please see the tables in world (where thy are discounted too), or try the demo table.
These Posh Curio Tables are made completely BY ME, not from dodgy full perm mesh from elsewhere that I've just dropped a texture on. The LOD levels are hand made (they actually exist!) and are perfectly balanced for use in a room; even a large one. Even at Firestorm's default LOD factor of only 2. YES... NO NEED to set your LOD factor at 4 here, like some people say you must with their mesh.
Mine are visible at all the detail you can discern up to 24m away at LOD Factor 2. Then they drop to a still good table shape, and drop again to a still just about visible table shape at 50m (at LOD-F2). That's a perfect balance to give them an LI of only 1. Most similar 1LI tables you'll see on the MP vanish to a complete mess after only about 5m away at LOD-F 2. I usually run at LOD Factor 3 (rarely 4, even though I run a gaming rig) and at that, these tables stay good for about as far as you can actually make them out anyway.
Single tables are NO-MOD, but are cheap (and you get five trim styles). The Fatpack contains all the tables, and they have MOD Perms, so you can retexture and tint them as you wish. The texture mapping is intended to be very easy to use (no need to work with tricky UV maps in photoshop). See the alignment texture demo in world to see what I mean. Only the legs are tricky (because they are very complexly shaped) but they respond to any not-too-complex texture well. They work nicely with wood grain or metalic textures.
Of, and of course they have reasonable physics too; not just cube.
