This script is designed for No Modify objects. The idea is to build in modification features that content creators can use on their objects, without the threat that John H. CopyBody can come along, copy someone else's prim setup, and happily resell it. Wild West indeed.
With this, you can be reasonably sure that the end-user has a huge margin of control over what their version of the object looks like, without the fear of losing credit for your work. Because No Modify prevents changes in links, hides the orientation of child objects, yet allows scripts to change features within the object itself, all one really needs is a scripted solution to the problem. This is that solution.
Some statistics:
- No static listeners (listeners are started once the user touches a prim
- Two scripts/prim/object - with the ability to remove them when done
- Dialog-based editing, to prevent users from redundantly using the same property (laggy)
- Undo queue that holds up to three entries
- Modifiable design allows for creators to "pick and choose" the permissions they want with a single list
To use, simply place these scripts into every prim of an object (not the Prim Copy script). Then, simply click any prim but the root (unless edited) to start up the script! I strongly advise that advanced users add llSetRemoteScriptAccessPin(#); to state_entry - this will make it easier to add new scripts or versions if any problems with this one are found, and since the number is held confidential and No Modify prevents external scripts, anyway, your stuff is safe.
When touched, you should see a dialog pop up that has the following options:
- Position: Change the position of a prim or the entire set
- Rotation: Change the rotation of a prim or the entire set
- Scale: Change the scale of a prim or the entire set
- Material: Change a prim's material type (some work for SL v1.6+ only!)
- Color: Change a prim face color
- Alpha: Change a prim face alpha
- Texture: Change a prim's texture options
- Bumpiness: Change the bumpmap of a prim face
- Shine: Change the shininess for a prim face
- Copy a Prim: Copy Mode (does NOT work with root unless edited)
- Undo Last: Undo last operation
- Remove Edit: Remove these scripts from selected prims
Certain Dialogs may also have additional options, including:
- Input a Position: Input a position directly
- Input a Rotation: Input a rotation directly
- Input a Scale: Input a Scale directly
- Copy a Prim: Select a prim to copy by dragging the "Prim Copy" script into the desired prim. Note that contents will NOT be copied!
- Select a Prim: Select the desired prim for an operation
- Example: Root Prim, This Prim, All Prims, All Others
- Select a Face: Select the desired face for an operation
- Example: 0, All Faces
- Select a Material: Select the desired material
- Example: Wood, Stone, Light
- More...: More options are available
- Select a Color: Select the desired color
- Example: Blue
- Advanced...: Input a value directly
- Select a Texture: Select the desired texture option
- Tex: Default: Select the SL Default Texture
- Tex: Blank: Select the SL Blank Texture
- Tex: This: Use this selected texture for entire prim or set
- Tex: Key: Input a texture key directly
- Offset: Input texture offset directly
- Rotation: Input texture rotation directly
- Scale: Input texture scale directly
- Select a Bumpmap: Select the desired bump option
- Example: Wood, Tile, Stucco
- Select a Shine: Select amount of desired shininess
- Example: None, Low, Medium, High
- Confirmation Dialog: Occasionally you will be asked to confirm an option. Select "Yes" or "No" in these cases
Enjoy!
"Prim Copy" feature enabled. Please IM me if you have any concerns or trouble with abusers of this script, and I'll show you how to put them to rest.
Shamelessly creating repeat business? Me? Naaahhhhh....
Note ALSO that this is meant to build in functionality to No Modify objects, NOT tamper with the existing permissions system. One cannot toy with permissions themselves with LSL.
