New furniture, new tree

New couches and armchairs have finally made it to Organica this week! Alongside the forest green Lush Plush armchair, six new colours are now available as both armchairs and couches. Each are available individually or can be purchased at a reduced price in a fatpack.  These are mod, copy, no transfer, with copy-only contents. Available in-store and on the Marketplace.

This new tree is the first Sycamore to be added to Organica. This is a great medium-sized tree with a lot of variety and will add a lot of visual interest to your garden. Comes with green, autumn and winter foliage, both scripted and unscripted. Mod, copy, no transfer, with copy-only scripts. Available in-store and on the Marketplace.

 

Also, as a reminder, there are only a few days on each of the hunts Organica is participating in this month!  Check out my previous post for full details!

Two new hunts, Two new field items!

September brings a couple of hunts to Organica for the earlier part of the month; check out Summer Harvest Hunt and Four Walls Hunt for full details of the events!

For Summer Harvest Hunt, these new barley stooks are excellent for your farm! 2 LI each at packaged size, mod/copy/no transfer. L$0 for the duration of Summer Harvest Hunt (Sept 1-21 2012)

For Four Walls, these new work lights are great for garages, warehouses, or anywhere you would like to add an utilitarian feel to your environment! They are lightly scripted for simple on/off light function and the package includes lights both shaded and unshaded, in three lengths. These range from 1-2 LI at packaged size and they are mod/copy/no transfer, with light scripts copy only. Valued at $300L, these are available for L$10 for the duration of Four Walls Hunt (Sept 1-15 2012)

Additionally, the autumn season has prompted me to put together a couple of new field crops!

These new grains are the perfect update for your farm themed fields! Taking advantage of mesh, these items continue to be low prim, but have the added bonus of allowing for scripted texture movement to simulate wind (without the viewer lag that comes with flexi prims). Requires mesh capable viewer, mod, copy, no transfer (scripts copy only). Available in-store or on the Marketplace.

Organica reopens today! New releases, newly renovated sim!

After a full week of downtime, Organica is again open to the public!

Things are still settling in, but hopefully the new design will provide a pleasing experience!

Most, if not all of the vendors have been moved to the new shop space (the barn)  but the main grounds will still have vendors scattered about for easy shopping while exploring the sim. The following new releases are also now available!

Some of you have been asking for single versions of the Alder trees; today your wish is my command! These new trees are thinner, younger trees with updated foliage. The package includes green, red and frosted foliage, both scripted and unscripted. Available mod/transfer and mod/copy, available in-store! Shall be updated to marketplace at the end of the month.

This detailed mesh greenhouse has a 24.5x17m footprint and features baked lighting, open door concept and beautiful window space. Great for your plants or for furnishing and other every-day use.  Available mod/copy, available in-store!  Shall be updated to marketplace at the end of the month.

This barn has a 64x32m footprint, is highly detailed and perfect for your farm! It comes in a rezzer and is great for storing farmyard items, breedables, and more! Available mod/copy, available in-store! Shall be updated to marketplace at the end of the month.

 This stable has a 20x24m footprint and is ideal for use on a farm for most breedables.  Mod/copy, available in store! Shall be updated to the Marketplace at the end of the month.

As these items are all mesh, please note you do need a mesh-capable viewer to view and use.

Come on by Organica to see all the updates and explore!

See you there!

Organica is closing + sale!

As it says, we’ll be closing for renovations!

From now until August 5, a coupon will be available at the landing point for all visitors to use towards 25% off all items (excluding RFL)! Simply buy a copy, then wear the coupon (it will attach as a HUD) and click on the vendor you want to purchase from. A menu item will appear; select ‘Use Card’ – this will activate your discount for 60 seconds. You can then pay the vendor at the reduced amount.

At 9PM SLT August 5, Organica will close and all visitors will be rerouted to a temporary telehub while the sim is redone.

While no specific maintenance will be done to the Marketplace stock during this time, a significant portion of older stock will be retired from the shop floor to make room for newer and better content.

On August 12, 2012, join us for a live music event! (More details to be announced)

 

Visit Organica and get your last minute photos of the sim before everything’s levelled next week!

Natural Hare animation overrider

While I’ve noted the Hare avatars can be used as is across many Animation Overrides, I’ve also been working on an AO which creates some poses a real hare might use. So that’s what is being put out today! The AO includes 10 basic animations which will be great to start you off on your hare-y existence!

The HUD includes:

– 10 animations which include stands, sits, a walk, prejump and jump

– Hare avatar eye control (also works with Tusk and Owl avatar eyes in theory), negating need to use two HUDs for eye control and AO.

– 3 quick animation buttons at top level menu for sit, eat and lie down.

Buy the full AO (with HUD) for lifetime updates (including any new animations bundled with the HUD!) or separately if you feel comfortable adding individual animations to an existing AO HUD (separate animations are not eligible for updates).

Check it out at Wilds of Organica!

New avatars available!

New to the line of Wilds of Organica avatars:

Yup – two hares are now available!

This avatar is designed to mostly work well with normal human animation overrides, although if you would like more animalistic animations, I highly recommend ORACUL for this avatar. I’ve included some notes and landmarks for various animation shops with the avatar, so that should get you started.

Each avatar is about 0.75m in height (standing on hind legs) and comes with eye control, customizable eyes and whisker attachments. All object components are mod/copy, while scripted components are copy only.

 

Planter update

An update was sent out today covering raised beds/planters which were included with the following products:

  • Turnips
  • Tomatoes
  • Lettuce
  • Bird of Paradise
  • Rubber Plant
  • Prayer Plant
  • Monstera Deliciosa

This update should keep the planter from crumbling when you zoom out, while maintaining a low LI. At packaged size, this item remains 1LI (but may push certain items to round up to the next LI)

If you did not receive your update, please let me know and I will process your redelivery manually as soon as possible.

These items have also been updated in-world. Marketplace listings for these items are currently offline and will be updated once some issues with Direct Delivery have been addressed.

Tusk Avatar updated, Subscriber kiosk added!

Update v1.1 was sent out to all folks who already have the Tusk Avatar – if you didn’t receive your update (sent earlier today), please contact me directly so I can send it to you manually.

Change Log:

– Fixed leg positioning and rigging. While not all animations will fit perfectly, this should help prevent ‘ankle in thigh’ clipping. and make gait look more natural. (July 10 2012)
– lower LOD added – to help viewers with older video cards load the av. (July 10 2012)
– some UV layout changes to hands. (July 10 2012)

Subscriber Kiosk

I’ve also added a subscriber kiosk for Wilds of Organica items so as not to pollute the update stream for my other businesses. If you’re interested in following updates from Wilds of Organica, come on over to the store and click the kiosk. It’s periodical, free, and won’t take up a group slot.

 

New Coleus plants + Rock walls now available

Brighten up your garden with these brilliant coleus plants!  Each one is 3LI with or without the pot, and sports vibrant hand-drawn foliage with realistic lighting and detailing. Ten varieties are available either individually or as a fatpack. Mod/copy/no transfer. Requires mesh capable viewer. ( Buy in Store ) ( Buy on Marketplace )

 

These rock walls have been requested somewhat regularly since i first started using them at Home Expo. While I wasn’t ready to offer them then, I’ve finished up the things I wanted to do with them and now make them available for you.

To use: Simply rez and move up against areas where you’d like a rock wall. Do note: these items do not have backsides in order to cut down on LI and reduce viewer resource use. To give these items a backside, consider duplicating and facing the other way, using other prims or backing these items up against terrain.

Available mod/copy/no transfer. Requires mesh capable viewer. ( Buy in store ) ( Buy on Marketplace )
