TTR-Instant Spring Garden

House & Garden

Thanks Stormy!

Each planting bed (there are 4 variationsincluded) is a18m x 18m triangle so you can kind of judge from there. Keep in mind that everything is modifiable (as well as copyable) so you could always shrink or expand the individual beds as required.

Flat land or a gentle slope would be best if you are using the planting beds. I have a few cases where people are buying the set because of the savings on the flowers & the cherry tree. These seven pieces (not counting the beds) would retail for L$1750 if you bought them individually.

I spent way too much time playing withvarious layouts using the different pieces - lol. It was hard to settle on just one in the end so I'm looking forward to seeing what other people come up with!

TTR-Instant Spring Garden

House & Garden

This delightful spring garden is perfect for avid and novice gardeners alike.

Based on the original design for the parterre of the Petit Trianon, the formal lines of the four planting beds and small, clipped hedge borders are accentuated by brightly coloured masses of flowers that sway gentle in the breeze. The full arrangement is a symmetrical pattern with the two beds of the right side mirroring the two beds of the left.

It sets up with the touch of a rez box for instant visual impact. All parts are mod/copy so that you can rearrange and make changes to your heart's content. Every piece has been optimized to be prim conscious.

Includes:
- Planting beds (left & right sides) with small clipped hedge borders and grass centres
- Cherry Tree in full blossom
- Pink Cone Flowers (Garden Flexi Flower 28)
- Paper White Flowers (Garden Flexi Flower 65)
- Variegated Hosta w Blue Flowers (Garden Flexi Flower 16)
- Yellow Calla Lilly (1 prim w 4 flowers straight-17)
- Pink Calla Lilly (1 prim w 4 flowers straight-20 & 1 prim w 4 flowers staggered-20)

One side of the garden requires a Land Impact (LI) of 56 to rez and position. Once the garden is in the correct spot and has been Stored (removing the rez scripts) the LI drops to 42.

The TTR-Instant Spring Garden will be on display inworld for the Spring 2012 season. During this time the flowers and garden beds may also be purchased individually. Go to the Petit Trianon French Garden Parterre .

Also available on the Second Life Marketplace at: TTR-Instant Spring Garden (SLM)

Enjoy!

Hello Tiamat

Unfortunatley a spammer did manage to gain brief (probably about 40 minutes or so) access to Royal Courts yesterday. As soon as I found out about it I suspended the account and deleted all content that she had placed on the site. However, I cannot remove Friend Requests or Messages that were already sent.

Needless to say youshould delete any messages received and donot contact her directly.

Thanks

Bienvenue!

I've known your uncle Trasgofor a long time now and it's exciting to see that you are following in his footsteps )

Let's talk about Mesh

General Discussion

Congratulations Trasgo!

I think it's wonderful that you will soon be able to show the world the fruits of your meshing efforts.

Seeing the possibilities of mesh and then actually creating something with it is certainly a daunting task especially when you have to deal with rigging as well! At least we can't complain that we are bored because there is nothing new to learn

Let's talk about Mesh

General Discussion

From: Deploys for the week of 2012-08-06

Changed prim accounting for legacy prims which use the new accounting system

All legacy-style prims have their streaming cost capped at 1.0 (except for sculpts, which will be capped at 2.0). This provides the benefit of not penalizing prim-based creators for optimizing their content by opting into the new system and will make the streaming cost more reflective of the true network cost of the objects.

Server cost will be adjusted to MIN{ (0.5*num_prims) + (0.25 * num_scripts), num_prims }. This preserves the current value for unscripted linksets and reduce the cost for linksets containing fewer than 2*num_prims scripts. It provides the benefit of rewarding creators for reducing the number of scripts in their objects.

Though this is old news, I'm just catching up with it myself. This makes a huge difference when putting together objects that include meshso I thought it was worth posting.

I'm very excited about it!!

Let's talk about Mesh

General Discussion

When I first came to SL I was very disappointed to see that LL had chosen not to implement a more robust means of making mesh objects.Instead they provided the means tocreate wtih prims and sculpts which are really a small, special, LLspecificmesh subset.

It's really exciting now that mesh has been launched and it means a lot of change will come to SL. This is both beneficial and at the same time a bit daunting so I thought I would start this discussion in the hopes that it will aid us allduring this transition. Another good place to start is with Pamela Galli's The Truth about Mesh .

Here are a few basics to get us started.

Mesh-Enabled Viewer

The first thing you are going to need is a mesh-enabled viewer. Either the official Second Life Viewer or a third-party viewer that supports mesh. The latest statistics ( January 30, 2012 ) say that 70% of residents are now using a viewer that supports mesh.

Land Impact

Even if you don't want to upgrade your viewer at the moment, the introduction of mesh has already had an impact on you SL experience. Prior to mesh, Land Capacity wasmeasured by the Prim Count, i.e. the number of prims that piece of land could support. Land Capacity is now measuredby Land Impact.

No need to panic about your current objects costing more as the way LL has set up the accounting system takes this into consideration. If you had a Prim Count of 500 your Land Impact is also equal to 500 and will remain so as long as you don't make specific changes to the objects.

You can learn more about Land Impact at Prims, Prim Equivalent, Land Impact... a too-long guide .

Other Resources

Right now I find that the information regarding mesh is scattered all over the place. My two favourite spots to look are the official Second Life Forum-Mesh and Second Life Universe-Content Creation . I have asked questions in both spots and got a lot of good feedback.

So there's a bit of a start. Please feel free to post your favourite resources, tips and questions.
