The Ultra Build Platform is several platforms in one!
NEW! Now has many new features! 31 platform textures. Many texture combinations for the stage. And best of all, a new built in workbench for tiny prims. IM me if you already bought and would like a free upgrade.
Prim count is from 1 to 7, depending on the chosen configuration. The footprint is 50x50, with a 1m overhang in each direction in the grid wall configuration. This is so the grids don't overlap
(Please view all pics to see the various configurations included)
For building, it is designed to be a convenient build platform, selectable textures for both platform and enclosure. The enclosures are provided for privacy and security. These are especially handy for building in sandboxes.
And, with the stage and dance floor, it makes a perfect sky platform for a party.
The prims in the package are copy/mod, and the scripts are copy.
Instructions for use:
To use your Platform, simply rez it, then right click to sit on it. You can now move it to the coordinates you desire. Once you have it located where you want it, stand up (and fly if you are in the air) and then click it. It will then resize itself to full size.
The scripts that allow you to use your Platform are disabled when you first rez it. Please wear the provided control HUD.
The HUD:
Clicking the HUD will give you the following menu: Appearance, Rezzer, Stage, Workbench, Prim Master, All off. Let's look at these one by one.
Appearance: Allows you to set the texture and brightness of the platform itself. Clicking Appearance on the HUD, then clicking the platform brings up the menus from which this can be done. Just click your selection.
Rezzer: This turns on the mode that allows you to change to the various configurations the Ultra Build Platform offers. Click Rezzer, then click the platform for a menu.
Stage: Once you have rezzed the stage and dancefloor, this turns on the script in them that allows you to change their appearance.
Workbench: Once you have rezzed the workbench, this turns on the script in it that allows you to change its appearance and rez prims.
Prim Master: This enables the Prim Master client script in the platform.
All off: This turns off all function scripts in all items. Clicking the above buttons turns them back on individually.
Please note: You can give a copy of the HUD to your friends to enable them to use your Ultra Build Platform. You just have to add their full name (not their display name) to the "Access" notecard in the platform, and give them a HUD. You might want to switch the permissions of the HUD to no transfer before you give them out, but if you forget it is not that big of a deal. The HUD is no good without a platform, and most of the functions will be unavailable without their name being on the access list.
Now, regarding the various configurations you can rez once you turn the Rezzer script on:
The Grid Walls button will rez 50m tall walls around you that are textured with the same grid as is on the platform.
The Clean button will remove any platform configuration that might be rezzed, leaving just the platform prim. (Don't worry,it won't affect any of your own prims)
The Reset button will cause the rezzer script to reset. You shouldn't often need this one.
The Privacy button will rez a 50m square "lid" on top of the platform, which will be transparent from the inside, but shiny silver from the outside. You'll be able to see out, but no one will be able to see in.
The Security button will rez a lid identical to the Privacy one, except the Security one is clear from the outside as well.
The Railing button will rez a 1.25m tall railing around the platform.
The Party! button will rez the stage, railing and dance floor.
Now, about the Party! setup. This has improved considerably since the last version of the Ultra Build Platform. Click the main part of the stage to bring up the menu for this. You will be presented with a number of different choices regarding how the stage and dance floor look. Click through them until you find the look you like.
The Workbench:
Once you have rezzed the Workbench from the Rezzer menu, click it to bring up the Workbench menu. On it you will see the following buttons: Brightness, Texture, Light, Prims, PM.
Brightness works the same way it does on the platform floor.
Texture ditto.
Light rezzes an invisible light source to illuminate the table top.
Prims rezzes small prims
PM is a switch for the Prim Master client scripts in the workbench.
About Prims:
Prims is a cool tool for working with mini prims. This menu allows you to rez .050 x .050 versions of all the prims the viewer build tool offers, right on the workbench surface, so when you are cammed in on something small, you don't have to cam out, rez a normal prim, make it small, move it, cam back in, etc.
