Question...help needed!!!!

I have a two part question.. I feel dumb askin' cuz Im not a noob..but guess I am when it comes to scripts..anyhoo...is there a script I can put into a prim where my renters can add their own logo to a prim? Same with walls and floors, is there a script where they can add their own textures to my walls and floors that they are renting? Thanks in advance!

Hi Yummy

not sure which version it is but at one time one of Hippotechs rental systems offered the feature where the renter could change a prim to show their logo. A lot of the ad boards allow you to change the texture to your own logo as well

just had a quick look on xstreet this hippotech system does the sign texture change...

ahh thanks hon..but no way to do it with just a regular prim that i made? hmmm

Sure you can!

i have a script i made like that for my blimp to change the sign on the side

Put the following script in the prim you want to change the texture on.
Put the texture URL in place of xxx.
Change ALL_SIDES to the number for the prim face you want to retexture - read up on the Wiki if you need to work out wwhich face is which.

As long as your renters have it in their inventory they can get the URL of the texture.

Good luck

default
{
state_entry()
{
string texture = "xxx";
llSetTexture(texture, ALL_SIDES);
}
}

Couldn't you just make your houses modifyable?

I won't write a whole script. maybe later if I am bored. But here is a nice way of doing it.

Script listens on a channel.
Script hears a command of your choosing, said by people you want to be able to change the texture.
Script waits and listens for a UUID of a texture.
When the person that said the command says a UUID the script uses llSetTexture to set a face of the object to the UUID said.
????
Profit.

Not sure if there's a reason you want to do this via a script, but why not just share the prims you want them to be able to re-texture with group?

Not sure if it is particularly easy or convenient, but you could do something like


string lastTexture;
key waitingFor = NULL_KEY;

default
{
touch_start(integer i)
{
// Check for group membership. Here could go any other validation check.
if (llDetectedGroup(0))
{
waitingFor = llDetectedKey(0);
llAllowInventoryDrop(TRUE);
llSetTimerEvent(60.0);
llInstantMessage(waitingFor, "Hold down CTRL while dragging a texture to the prim.";
}
else
{
llInstantMessage(llDetectedKey(0), "You need to be a group member to change the texture of the sign";
}
}

changed(integer change)
{
if (change & (CHANGED_ALLOWED_DROP | CHANGED_INVENTORY))
{
// If we have more than one texture, kick out the last we used:
if (llGetInventoryNumber(INVENTORY_TEXTURE) > 1 && lastTexture != ""
{
llRemoveInventory(lastTexture);
lastTexture = "";
}

// Pick the first remaining texture...
string textureName = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_TEXTURE, 0);
if (textureName != ""
{
// and show it on face 0:
llSetTexture(textureName, 0);
lastTexture = textureName;

// Kick out any excess items (in case the user dropped other things, or more than one)
integer i = llGetInventoryNumber(INVENTORY_ALL);
while (--i >= 0)
{
string nameToRemove = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_ALL, i);
if (nameToRemove != textureName && nameToRemove != llGetScriptName())
{
llRemoveInventory(nameToRemove);
}
}
if (waitingFor != NULL_KEY)
llInstantMessage(waitingFor, textureName + " accepted.";
}
waitingFor = NULL_KEY;
llSetTimerEvent(0);
llAllowInventoryDrop(FALSE);
}
}

timer()
{
llSetTimerEvent(0);
llAllowInventoryDrop(FALSE);
llInstantMessage(waitingFor, "Inventory drop window timed out.";
waitingFor = NULL_KEY;
}
}
