My friend AM Radio created this beautiful "pathetic Christmas tree" (his title, not mine).



Very expensive on the prim count at a whopping 94! This is why it is stored in the basement of our secret lair :)

He also created this wonderful train.



Meanwhile, I'm completely obsessed with making statues with animated textures. Here's my latest and a better picture of the first one.





It's actually quite easy, so here's a tutorial if you want to make your own.


  1. Click CTRL+4 to open the Create palette (also under Tools --> Select Tool --> Create)

  2. Select a shape and then click in world. You should see a new shape in world and your avatar should be pointing at it.

  3. The Create palette will now be in Edit mode. Click the More button and then Select the Content tab.

  4. Click the New Script button, the double click the new script to edit it.

  5. Delete the contents of the script and replace it with this

    default
    {
    state_entry()
    {
    llSetTextureAnim(ANIM_ON | SMOOTH | ROTATE | LOOP, ALL_SIDES, 1, 1, 0.0, TWO_PI, 0.1);
    }

    }

  6. Click the Save button, and when the save is complete close the script window.


And that's it - the texture on the prim is now animated!
