![[T2L MaA] Bimini for Aurora](https://slm-assets.secondlife.com/assets/34937233/lightbox/Screenshot%20from%202024-03-23%2021-51-47.jpg?1711483400)
Full mesh model of a bimini for the lounge part of the boat.
Sized and fitted for the Aurora
### Attention - You need to have skills in editing objects in SL to install the bimini to your boat ###
There is a manuel attached, which explains in detail how to link the bimini to your Aurora.
It may also fit at other boats.
The bimini can be hidden by "hide bimini" menu button.
With the "auto bimini" button it will show again and hide if you go faster than 15kn. If you stop it will show again.
If you get completely stuck with it, feel free to reach out to me.
For any comments or complains, please contact me directly.
Textures for the fabric in pink, blue, beige, turquoise, black and black transparent.
### The Aurora is NOT included. It can be found here at a different shop https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Aurora-BOX/25375014 ###
OMG to install it!!!
The Bimini itself is nice, the function to add the button in the menu to show/hide it is awesome, the creator provides a lot of textures...
BUT
The Bimini once rezzed DOES NOT automatically positions to fit the boat. You need to manually do it... BUT it is not centered to the boat (along the long axis of the boat - no it does not sit on this axis, nor does it follow the short axis, or the vertical one!!!).
Also it is in a strange rotation so you cannot rotate it and be sure it is looking East or South or West...
Rez the Bimini and DO NOT ROTATE IT.
Rez the Boat and rotate it to look South.
You need to move and align the Bimini with the eye!!!
What you need to ignore from the instructions:
- The instructions say to move the boat in the North-South axis (correct) with the boat looking North (WRONG). The boat should be looking South.
- The Bimini is not centered to the boat (along the long North-South). It needs to be moved a little to the East from the center of this axis of the boat.
Also you need manually to find the correct position regarding the height and the X and Y too.
To my estimation (considering the boat is looking South so it is positioned in the Rotation 0-0-270) the following differences need to be measured:
The X of the Bimini is the X of the boat plus 0.10997
The Y of the Bimini is the Y of the boat minus 2.30263
The Z of the Bimini is the Z of the boat plus 1.44287
i like it
Had a little trouble with installing it, had to redo my boat 3 times but finally I got it.
Looks great once installed :)
