Hello everyone,

I slept late today, in an hour or so I'll be leaving the house for the first of three night shifts, hence the late opening of the door on your Advent calendar today.

Today we have something completely different, an "Auction Double Door". You can also use the same texture on a pair of props "Door" and then use the "Door Object" script to build them into functional doors. In this case, I recommend that you create the script "Cached Web Image" as script 1 and "Door Object" as script 2, but ultimately it's up to you.

Here is the texture, first as a preview image for download, below the hotlink for direct use.



Have fun, have a good time, divingA

Hello everyone,

Today is already the 15th of December, the next door of the advent calendar has to be opened. And behind it is ...

an old antique closet with matching fittings and hinges. Attach the prop map below to the "Black Tall Dresser" prop and it will be in your Zaby in no time.



Have fun, have a good time, stay healthy, see you tomorrow, divingA

THANK YOU SO MUCH DIVING HUN
AND MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hello everyone,

three prop maps are behind today's door in your advent calendar. And with an easy and small but nice trick, these three prop maps become six different Japanese wall pictures, the classic Japanese roll pictures.

Each of the prop maps can be used either on the "Japanese Wall Hanging 1" or "Japanese Wall Hanging 2" prop. Nothing needs to be done in the tate tab, except maybe check "Unlit" depending on your taste, that's up to you. All three maps are optimized PNG files in the size of 512 x 512 pixels. Here they are, as usual first the image, useful if you want to download them and uload them in your preferred picture host od the Hotlink below the image for direct use.



Have fun, have a good week, don't get stressed, divingA

Hello everyone,

yesterday I gave you the required textures and propmaps to build a rose arch in the Zen Garden and promised to give you the roses today. I intend to keep my word.

But first, take a look at two screenshots of another location of mine to see how such a rose arch or the climbing roses in general can look. Of course, in this location the framework of the rose arch is made of a different material, dark wood, you've got it color-coordinated with the gate of the Zen garden.



Since all three of the following prop maps have an edge length of 1024 pixels on one if not both sides for the sake of good performance, today there are once again only the hotlinks, no pictures. Do I really have to tell you again that all three images are PNG files? Actually, you can already see that from the links. I have now said often enough what to do in the State tab. Here are the links:



The texture of the first two links is unfortunately only suitable for the prop "Sign_01". However, the texture of the last link can also be used on the "Alpha Tree 01" or "Alpha Pine Tree" props. The latter option in particular gives your climbing rose bushes a more beautiful fullness and true opulence.

If you also want to do the rest to give your rose bushes the appearance of greater realism, then add a few props "Thorny Bushes" with the following texture:



With the help of these textures, not only can your gate in the Zen Garden look like the one shown here:



No, you can of course also just take the roses and embellish the entrance to your house with them.

So much on the subject of roses and rose arches that I can end here.

Have a nice evening, stay healthy,

Apart from today's competition, the competition started on page 1 of this thread is still running,



which asked for the number of items in my gift corner of my workshop. There are still three days left to submit your answers.

Due to the night shift on 24.12., this competition will only be closed and resolved on 25.12. approx. 09:00 am my time (CET).

Here are the answers already received:







Only one answer per user is allowed, in contrast to today's competition, which will also end in 13 hours.

In today's competition, several answers per user are allowed, just as many answers as necessary to guess the prop in question. The user with the first correct answer is the winner!

Keep at it if you don't want to miss your chance!

Hello Xo_Mj_oX,

your estimation has be registered.

On 25.12. at around 09:00 CET you will know whether you are the winner with this estimate or not.

Merry Christmas, divingA

Which is absolutely correct, we have a winner, competition of this day is closed.

Hello everyone,

today we are going to start the last part of the topic Japanese stone lanterns. Like yesterday there are four "VV Gastown Steamclock" prop maps, reworked to look like Japanese stone lanterns with a golden roof and golden symbols for the four seasons.



Have a good time everyone, stay healthy, have a nice weekend, divingA

Hello everyone,

First of all, I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas. Take care of yourselves, celebrate with your loved ones in peace and harmony.

Today is the fourth Sunday in Advent. At the same time, however, it is also what is known in Germany as Christmas Eve, the day on which presents are given.

That's why today's gift in the Advent calendar is a little more opulent.

The basis of the gift is the stone lantern that I gave you 22 days ago, in post No.28. Follow the installation instructions in this post. The size should then be 1.00 x 2.00 x 2.00.

Place it in the corner of your moat in the Zen garden, as shown in the screenshot.



Place the Prop "Lantern" in its center, Unlit checked, otherwise as it is set by default.

Then place a "Primitive Halfcylinder" with a size of 0.50 per axis on the stone lantern. Please give it the texture that now follows here, the texture of a spring stone, like the stone lantern, also made of granite. Make sure that the spring stone protrudes evenly beyond the stone lantern on all sides.



Now clone the primitive halfsphere twice, the first clone gets the size of 0.51 per axis, the second 0.52 per axis.

Both clones must be placed precisely over the Spring Stone.

Now give these two halfspheres the "Animated Texture" script and select from the Drop-Down-List the "waterfall1.spr." animation in the "Sprite" box. In the State tab, please check "Unlit" and "Texture Translucent" with the value 100. Finally, rotate one of the two clones with the animated texture by 90°, regardless of whether one sphere is at 0° and the other at 90° or 270° and which is the upper and which is the lower sphere. However, they must not both be at 0° and 180° or 90° and 270°.

Next you need two "Primitive Cylinders", one in the size of 2.83 x 1.00 x 2.83, the other in the size of 2.84 x 1.00 x 2.84[/b][/color]. Script is like the Spring Stones above, i.e. "Animated Texture" with waterfall1.spr as sprite, in the State tab also check Unlit and Texture Translucent with the value 100.

Finally, make a "Sign_01 Animated" prop and give it the size 1.0 per axis. Script must be "Animated Texture" again, this time as a sprite waterfall1 ripple.spr. In the State tab, follow the same procedure as above, i.e. Unlit and Texture Translucent with the value 100.

And there you have your fountain, which you can now place with the other stone lanterns in every corner of the Zen Garden using clones of the first fountain.

I'm off to the Christmas market at Holiday Traditions and then straight to bed, have a good day everyone,

divingA
