v1.51 update (Nov 26, 2024): Vastly improved LOD at a distance.
Hi, and thank you for your interest in my Type 1 Street Lamp! In this fatpack, you will receive all 3 styles of Street Lamps: Single Lamp, 2 Lamp Heads 90° apart, and 2 Lamp Heads 180° apart. This is my second Type 1 product, and it's designed to match other Type 1 products, such as my Lighted Pillar. Please try the demo before you buy!
In the folder you will receive, you will have the street lamp in 3 shades: light, medium, and dark. These can also be tinted if you want to modify them.
In order to see the mesh properly, you should have your LOD set to 2 or above. At LOD 2, the mesh will deform at a long distance, and it will not disappear completely. At LOD 3, it deforms in a barely noticeable way after a long distance, and at LOD 4, it doesn't deform at all, no matter how far away it's viewed.
When you rez the street lamps, they will rez at their full height, which is a little over 6m tall. The single and 90 degree dual street lamps, are 2 LI (land impact) each. The 180 degree dual street lamps are 3 LI. The poles are easily adjustable in height by going into edit>edit linked>and selecting the upper pole and the light(s), then sliding them up or down. The shortest you can make them before the pole starts poking into the ground is a little under 4m tall. You can still go shorter than that, but the pole will stick through the bottom and into the ground.
The lighting was designed to mimic a sodium vapor streetlight, though the light it gives off is more of a warm, natural light. If you want to go diving into the scripting, you can change that. Otherwise, click on the street lamp and you'll be presented with a menu with the lighting options. These street lamps can be set to turn on and off automatically through the menu, or can be turned on and off manually.
This item uses 2K PBR texturing throughout. However, all of the PBR textures also have Blinn-Phong fallback textures, so this item will be viewable by people using a viewer that is not PBR-enabled. Please bear in mind that due to the nature of PBR, the texture can look very different depending on the lighting settings of your parcel and the other local lights present.
Included with the street lamps is a free sample of one of the kinds of neon signs I can make, and this design is what I use for my store logo. I will be offering more neon in my store, and I'm open to commissions too.
I hope you enjoy the street lamps, and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or October Hush. Thanks!
