Ancient Homelands opened a new free products store in the Fermi Sandbox. Surrounding his Fermi Sandbox, Arthur Fermi has rental places, large and small, priced according to location. As of this writing the balcony stores are L$110 a week with 25 prims and the ground level rentals are L$220 a week with 50 prims. For now I did not feel that is was necessary to rent a ground level store, so I’m on the second floor. This is my second free products location with my main store on Hamnida being the first. At Fermi I used dark wood textures for the walls and wood parquet flooring.
My sign is blended in with the awning that Fermi provides over the front of the store. I used a sign texture that I had available, which was previously flat on the side of building so it did not take kindly to being curved with the awning. Within a month that curved sign will be replaced with one that says “free products” or something like that, and will be more readable from the sandbox. I have over 75 products on my work platform in development and by the end of the summer I plan on moving my Fermi store down to a ground level position where I will have 25 more prims available for my product vendors for all the new products.
Epos Imako makes really good product. Not only does he release bug free designs but he stands behind everything he sells. Partnering with Epos and putting his IMAKON vendors in my store I can now sell his famous temp-rezzer, and his new Sim Rader 3D which provides you extensive information about the traffic on your sim, in addition to ban, eject, TP home and unsit any avatar on your land. Epos’s Sim Mapping service creates high quality sculpt maps of your sim or just your parcel delivered in a nice table display. The Rezz Positioner which is in wide use all over the grid is now for sale in my store along with the IMAKON Dome Factory and many other quality scripted products.
A professional grade lecture - podium for Second Life educators and business people wanting a quality podium to speak from. The attractive speaker’s podium with finely cut and fitted edges comes with a high quality wood finish and tan leather top surface large enough to put a laptop or a presentation display controller. The realistic microphone stands on either side have textured microphones that closely resemble real life. An avatar must first select Stand and then is presented with a menu of four stand positions which will be increased in number in future releases. On the front of the lecture – podium is a modifiable sign area where you can drag your company or school logo texture to. The lecture – podium is a 20 prim unit that comes with Copy-Modify-No Transfer permission and is easily positioned in even tight spaces.
With a footprint of 20 meters wide by 24 meters deep and the built in Ancient Homelands Free Furniture Rezzer, the Safe House makes an ideal starter home. The walled compound was originally designed for placement in areas of the grid that have so much bad architecture and prim junk right outside your window you could not stand to look at it, but the price of the land was so cheap it was hard to not locate there. With walls high enough to block the view of the neighbors, yet leave plenty of sky and light coming in, the Safe House has served its purpose on mainland for hundreds of customers. It has all the features of our larger Ancient Homelands houses, with the Home Control System for doors, windows and lights. The small interior balcony is large enough for a bed or sitting arrangement and with the built in teleporter getting to the balcony is just a right click away. The Safe House has a one meter deep foundation for placement on rugged terrain and with its dark high quality exterior stone textures, stained glass windows, tile roof and heavy wood door this house fits perfectly on sims that have a pre-1900’s theme. The interior is attractive light textured stucco with a high quality textured wood plank floor and ceiling that works well with many types of furniture. Inside the Ancient Homelands store there is a miniature module of the house.
Ancient’s Gazebo has a lot to like about it. With its 9.5 meter diameter footprint and 12 prims, the gazebo comes in Copy, Modify and No-Transfer. What is nice about that Modify is you can Edit the gazebo, select both Stretch check boxes and reduce the gazebo down to the exact size you require to fit into any location. Looking at the gazebo from the front, the first pillar on your left is clickable only by the owner which brings up the texture and tint changer menu. The base, floor, seating, pillars and dome have many different stone, metal, wood texture and tinting combinations. Each has at least 25 high quality textures to choose from that can be mixed and matched for a perfect appearance fit in your architectural environment. The single prim beach seat sits up to 10 avatars in many different seating animations and the dome has a built in night light script that automatically lights the area under the dome on sims that have a lighting cycle that turn to nighttime. Inside the Ancient Homelands store is a fully working model of the gazebo with a script that allows anyone to change textures and tint. On the roof of the store is the full sized gazebo.
These are 1 prim rugs with 15 textures each. The textures are built into the no-modify texture changer script inside each rug. Only the rug owner can change the texture by clicking on the rug. Our rugs use the highest quality oriental rug textures with a no-lag fast texture changer script. All our rugs are resizable. Ancient Homelands rugs are delivered in the 5x5 meter size because this size best displays the textures of the rugs for your initial review. The rugs textures are professionally created using fast loading Targa or .tga textures and once your web browser has loaded the fully rezzed texture into its cache you can cycle through the rugs faster. The Oriental Round rugs have only 6 textures and these are free in the Ancient Homelands store. Rugs are delivered with copy, modify and no transfer permissions. The texture changer script is no modify.
L ocated on the roof of the Ancient Homelands store, the Builders Cabin is on the same sim as the important New Citizens Incorporated (NCI) South sandbox and educational center. The cabin is a fully Hippo Technology compliant building with Hippo security, group, rent, media, doors and windows contained within the rental box for the renter. Renters on Ancient Homelands are managed by Bot Core the service bot who is responsible for automating the rentals and the group membership for rezzing rights on Ancient Homelands property. The cabin contains an optional furniture rezzer for tenants who prefer not to buy their own furniture. With a balcony and adequate main floor space and the NCI sandbox within sight of the front door, the builders cabin is an ideal home shelter for the aspiring builder in Second Life.
