[RETIRED] Garden and scripts

The Home and Garden Expo is closer in time, and while in building frenzy mode, I've started to ready the ads to begin bringing to the ground level at the sim all the new items coming (which will be also a part of my showcase there.)

Fenced Planter - Strelitzia

One of the news is a fenced planter: a gorgeous strelitzia surrounded by a wooden planter.

Simple Sprinklers Controller

Another new item is a script for creators that will allow you to easily set up low lag linked sprinklers for a garden.

More items to come very soon!

Coming soon: Adult Store

While I finish testing several new tools (scripts) for builders, working in a 4096 sqm parcel dedicated exclusively to hold the "Home and Garden" furniture store that will also participate in the "Home and Garden Expo" (more information, soon) and my classes, I'm also about to finish, most likely this weekend, testing, packaging and releasing some items in... a store in adult land.

This means that, yes, some of my new items won't be available for the general public, only for age verified avatars. It's a new venture that I wish it gets to a good term. I will, of course, continue with the educational and scripting tasks. It's just, one more aspect that I wanted to cover in SL.

Stay tuned, the adult store is coming soon. I hope you will like it.

Basic Scripting for Builders 1 & 2

"Basic Scripting for Builders" is the little brother of "Speaking LSL". Oriented to builders, it works at a very slow pace all the required concepts to understand scripts and know how to modify them.

First book covers the basic structure of a script, and answers to questions that even some scripters don't know.


Basic Scripting for Builders 1, available in Marketplace.

Then, the second book covers how to create scripts that react to touches, how to put two actions on touch, and how to put together several scripts on touch, so you have the same actions in just one. Enjoy!


Basic Scripting for Builders 2, available in Marketplace.

Songs for creators, notecard readers

This week's update consists in two songs for creators and two notecard readers.

"The Entertainer" and "Maple Leaf Rag"

Notecard Readers

Without a doubt, I prefer the powerful Presenter for my classes and presentations, but if you're beginning into the education world, perhaps the two following, simple tools, help you getting started. They're not as much as featured, but they'll assist you in your first sessions.

[RETIRED] Log Cabin and Several Sound Scripts

The Log Cabin

For an unknown reason, SL was consistently eating the log cabin I was living in, so why not, building my own one? That's how this cozy log cabin was born: a 20x30 lovely cabin that uses only 42 prims (all the sculpted prims have been custom made to achieve this low prim house).

And of course, all the doors in the house feature my multidoor tool, so low prim, low lag, but high in charm. Are you waiting to try it?

Scripts to Play Songs and Sounds

These are the three first scripts from my new line of scripts to play sounds and songs. More to come very soon, with more options.


Plays a song from all the sound clips in the inventory of the prim. Full permissions and detailed instructions to edit it.
Basic Play Song Script available in Marketplace.


Plays one from a maximum of 12 sound clips contained in the inventory of the prim, by showing a menu. Full permissions and detailed instructions to edit it.


Plays one from any number of sound clips contained in the inventory of the prim via menu. This menu also allows to change the volume of the clips played. Detailed instructions of use.

Currently working in more advanced sound scripts, featuring more options. Stay tuned!

[RETIRED] Cottage, Lovers Garden Retreat and more in the store

To get ready for the Christmas Expo, I finished a few items that were "in production" and produced a few more for it. All of them are a part of this update. Check them at the new store location!

The Greenhouse

Featuring my new simple watering controller script, this low-prim greenhouse is perfect for your garden. The box contains two versions: with and without water system, as well as other extras like tables and several planters (empty and with tulips.)

Do you like the water controller system and want to add one to your already existing greenhouse? Then you can acquire separately the script itself:

Lovers Garden Retreat

Talk about gardens... How about having your own little slice of Heaven to share conversations and some intimate moments with your loved one? Enjoy the animations and sequences happening both in the bench and the tree area from this set. You're loving them!

Forest Cottage

And what about this lovely house?

It uses an area of 24x26 squared meters, fitting in a 1024 squared parcel and it just uses 45 prims. All the sculpties have been custom-made for this house so the prim usage was kept to a minimum. The doors are linked to the house and are controlled by a single script, featuring my multidoor tool: low lag!

Forest Cottage (Miniature)

The same house, but in miniature version (only 41 prims.) For all of you, doll houses fans!

Animations

This time I'm also adding two new full permissions animations for creators:





More items soon to come!
Enjoy.

PS: Yes, I'm also working in making an uniform branding style, as well as updating old items. All permissions for furniture will change to copy/modify/no transfer. After some thinking, I'm sure now that this is the way to do things.

Presenter and Multi Door tools, available

I'm very happy to announce the two following tools in my store: the presenter and the multi door tool.

The presenter comes from more than 16 months of teaching experience in SL. I began developing a simple notecard reader that nowadays has derived in a really helpful and featured tool.

It's not my word, but what all people that have helped me testing say, including people as Eleanora Newell, whose suggestions I have to say, have been my pleasure to work on, for the tool being the most complete possible in this first official release.

So, are you an instructor? Not an instructor but need to conduce a presentation?

Take a look at this, then. You won't regret it.



[Black Tulip] Presenter, available at Marketplace.

The second item in this release is the Multi-Door/Drawer/Curtain/lid Tool. A set of scripts that will make your life really easy for your houses, furniture or other items to have their doors, drawers, lid, etc, open and close, at a really low lag cost.

One of the common nightmares for builders is to have linked doors, drawers, etc, in their builds, so they can easily setup all and offer a link set, not a soft link, to their customers. This tool comes to help all of them.
