EinHander finally released!

I say "finally" 'cause I've been working on this for like... how much is it, 3 months or something. Well not because it's something really complicated, more like, I've been updating the scripts used in the chair (and in my lights) for months and never had time to finally take a break and update the chair itself once and for all.
I also took the chance to include 7 poses in it, instead of a single one, using the MLP system (sorry guys but it's no sex product :s), which is simpler than trying to put more poses into it with "normal" systems.
So basically, the chair features 3 single seats, 2 couple seats and 2 cuddles, all selectable from the MLP-driven menu system. In addition, by clicking the metal base of the chair you can access the lighting menu, with all the classic options like on/off with intensity choices, colors, daylight timer and so on. You can also set the position of the light itself between 3 presets, to give nice shadows on your avie :p
You can find the chair (and try it, since it's on the rezzing vendor) in my main furniture shop, and also on SLExchange on OnRez and in the Metaverse Mart HUD.

Luxace v1.1

With a couple days of delay, here comes the new version of Luxace!
First of all: to update, just wear your v1.0 HUD and you'll get the v1.1 box automagically.
I received a lot of positive feedbacks about version 1.0 during the last days, and a good number of very nice inputs on how to improve its features, so I started to work hard on it to make a release in reasonable times :p
Big thanks this time as well to Caliah Lyon for the idea about chat commands, but also to CronoCloud Creeggan for further developing it and adding her own opinion on implementing a rotate function for the whole attached prim.
I was also kinda surprised to receive a very nice feedback from Torley Linden himself, what can I say, I'll try to keep up the work :D

So, about new features, first of all the long awaited implementation of chat commands. From this version on, you will be able to operate most (if not all) the functions of Luxace using commands on channel number 5 (default, but it can be changed in the configuration notecard), like for example /5 show (to show emitters), /5 l1 right 0.3 (to move emitter 1 on the right by 0.3 meters) etc. Everything is well documented in the new manual revision.

Second thing, I implemented a new rotation function, to rotate the whole attachment prim on each of the 3 axis for special added effects. For example, /5 rotx 45 will rotate the attachment by 45 dregrees around the x axis.

As a consequence from the previous point, I had to create a way to import the old notecard format into the new scripts, since the adding of a rotation function messed things around a bit ;) so here comes the programs converter object, you just drop the old v1.0 *Programs notecard inside it and you'll have printed on screen the program lines according to the new syntax (well, to be honest it's the same syntax with added the line for the rotation parameter :p).

I already discussed with Caliah the next big step in the Luxace roadmap but I'll keep it private for now, I just hope you'll all have fun with version 1.1, and remember I'm around for any help :)

Re-light 1.1 out! And 1.11 too!

1.11 UPDATE: ooops, now the HUD will operate the device even if the object owner isn't in the ACCESS_LIST ;) Sorry!

The day of updates goes on!

..: What's new :..

v1.1
- NEW: let's start with the most noticeable new feature, the HUD! From version 1.1 on, Re-light comes equipped with full HUD support. Wearing it (it attaches to the bottom screen) you'll be able to have full access to the device features from _anywhere within the same region_. Place the box where you want, offset the emitters to the middle of the dance floor with the STARTING_POS *Configuration setting and operate it with the HUD: simple, fast and effective. The Re-light box includes one copy/mod HUD, more HUDs are for sale at the Re-light shop for the price of 99 L$ each
- NEW: another long awaited addition comes with the _automated program creation walkthrough_. Use the old Rez.marker menu command and follow the instructions on screen to receive a fully formatted block of text lines containing the program you designed, ready to be comfortably copied&pasted in the *Programs notecard
- MODIFIED: completely revamped update system taking advantage of our flaming new web facility. 256-bit crypted connections to get synced with all our latest updates, automatically (every time you reset the device) or manually (from the ChkUpdate menu option)
- BUGFIX: corrected a vicious bug that caused the emitters to ignore the first waypoint of a program after the first movement through it

Available immediately through automatic update (rez a copy of your old version and enjoy), at my Re-light shop and on the usual SLExhcange and SLBoutique (check the column on the right for the links).

Luxace v1.0

Luxace is a powerful and extremely versatile face lighting system, designed to help people take astonishing photo shoots, from normal amateurs to professional modeling ones.
In the box you will find 2 items. The first one is the face light itself, made up of 3 prims, 2 emitters and the root object containing the main control scripts and the *Configuration notecard.
The second item is the HUD used to control the emitters. The HUD attaches to the center HUD attachment point, placing itself on the central bottom part of your screen. Remember that you'll need to keep the HUD on just when you want to change the emitters parameters and configure new programs, in all other situations you can leave it detached.

The HUD features a full control over the 2 emitters, you can change position in the 3 axis, intensity, radius, falloff, color, and you can of course save/load/delete the settings into programs that you'll be also able to dump in chat to copy&paste them into the *Programs notecard to save them forever (useful when you upgrade your Luxace too).

Luxace is availablea t 349 L$ from my Lights shop, and on the usual SLExchange and SLBoutique.
