***OLD ITEM - SCULPTED PRIMS***
What would a tree look like in the year 3013? Is it a robotic tree or a dendric power facility?
Its a DENDROID - the dendric android...
An odd shape, wires from the trunk to the ground, fluorescent tree mushrooms, glowing foliage
with circuit patterns, solar cell coating - or even changing between 65.000 colors,
escher-esk bark and you can see neuro synthetic circuits where the bark peels off...
You almost can not decribe that robot, errr - tree. You have to see it!
The DENDROID v1.0 marks a new era of .:buddhabeats:. trees. Customizeable like no other of my trees!
Rescale it from bonsai size to huge ancient tree - it will always fit your land.
Tint the leaves, adjust the glow with the built in control panel or even use the SL (tm) building tools if it isnt enough.
The smart temp rezzed controller does not count against your land prim count and is only rezzed when needed.
It recalculates its position depending on the size of the tree and remembers if you have moved it to another position.
Of course this tree is friendly to your environment with efficient scripting and low lag!
A tree for the people of tomorrow...

***INSTRUCTIONS
CHANGING THE APPEARANCE:
very simple: touch the tree.
a hovering control panel will appear close to the trunk.
choose a bark texture, adjust the glow or change the foliage.
NOTE: the color picker panel and the fade button will always change the foliage to the "glowy" leaves.
touch the tree again to derez the panel or wait until the timer derezzes it automatically.
CHANGING THE PANEL POSITION:
touch the tree.
right click and edit the panel.
rotate or move it to a convenient position.
touch the tree again to derez the panel or wait until the timer derezzes it automatically.
next time you want to use the panel it will rez at the last position.
RESCALE:
rightclick and edit the tree.
check "stretch" in the upper part of the sl build window.
push or pull the white boxes appearing around the tree until you get the desired size.
ADVANCED:
keep in mind the glow changer will change foliage AND mushrooms. If you want different glow intensity for both
use the SL(tm) building tools.
you can add your own bark textures to the trunk - just drag the texture from your inventory to the bark.
if you want solar cell foliage and green glowing mushrooms, first change the schrooms and then select the solar cell foliage.
the color picker will always change the foliage to the glowy, semi transparent leaves.
***NOTE
No trees were harmed for the creation of this virtual object.
Never link any parts to this tree and remove no prims.
Of course you can remove the script for a totally lag free dendroid after making all changes you want.
If you have any questions about this or other .:buddhabeats:. products, please dont hesitate to IM me.
Namaste,
Roopert

Older tech tree holds some charm
It's a 14 prim tree that looks more synthetic then anything. Hex panel trunk wires weaving into the ground, glowing mushrooms. Strange digital leaves. Everything about it screams synthesized. The detail work in the tree is lovely. The author didn't simply slap some tech textures on a tree and call it a day, they added various nuances to sell the point.
That said. It's sculps. It's going to rezz as a collection of sphers and half-trunk until your viewer decides to download all the sculp-texture data and it'll snap into the shape of a tree. Far less elegent then modern mesh tree solution. ONce it's fully rezzed however it looks great.
Now, I know some of you are now thiking "Well if it's a sculp what happens to the LI if I try to get saucy and apply alpha-masking to the leaves or a custom material to the trunk?" And the answer is you end up with a 22 LI tree. Considering how much some sculp stuff jumps up when you apply materials this is rather tame, but it is an increase, but it's still tame.
All and all it's a nice build. I wouldn't let the sculps scare me away from purchasing it if I were looking for a high tech plant.
I give it four stars because it's truly well above average and a well done piece but falls shy of perfection.
Wanna make it look like it's 2004?
Buy this tree! The second someone rezzes into your sim they will see gigantic balls as the horrible thing rezzes in. Come on. You could sell a REALLY nice mesh tree that had 14li. Why sell this really ancient stuff? Looks ok if you don't mind your sim lagging from old stuff.
Funky, fun, and really well made
This chap, Roopert, he has stolen my soul with his hi-tech trees lately. I have his holographic ones, and now... his Denodroid.
This is one seriously well made cybernetic tree. Not that I'd know what one would look like in real life if they ever made one. :D But it looks hot, well textured, the control panel customiser is without doubt the best designed facility I've seen for customisation and, oh, it shrinks REALLLy well. So much so, you could wear one on your head, and almost as a necklace. :o
Looks hot, and if you're setting up a cyber sim, home or playground, you need one, and his holographic ones, they are simply awesome, I can't wait to see more varieties of Denodroid :D
