Prize Givers
Prize Givers
AW Devices has just release a Prize Giver product range for Christmas time 2009. These objects drop gifts which when touched create a folder in the inventory of the person who touched it with the prizes inside it.
Let me show you a video tutorial which explains about how to use it and how to prepare the gifts (If you click on the video you will be re-directed to youtube site where you can see the video in a bigger size):
The range consists of three, so far, objects; a Chimney, a Horn, and a Christmas Tree . All of them are ideal to be placed in our shop or mall, or even in our own house and so offer gifts to our clients, visitors or friends.



All the models have in common that when touched by the owner they start or stop. Apart from that, the chimney starts the smoke when activated, the Xmas Tree Star starts twinkling when activated, the same as the precious stones in the Horn.
Before starting to use the Prize Giver you have to prepare the gifts to be given-away by following these simple steps:
1 - Build a box (cube), give it a maximum size of 0.3 en all the sides X, Y and Z, so that they don't get stuck. The same size in all the axes.
2 - Apply it the texture of the gift that you will put inside it.
3 - Go to content tab, and drop the gift or the things that the gift consists of, after doing that, drop also the script named "Prize Script". Everything you put here except the scripts (if you want to give scripts as gift put them in another box) will be delivered to the person touching this box later. For everything you want to give-away you must have at least copy and modify permission. It is different the permission for the next owner which is up to you, but my reccomendation is that you don't put transfer permission for the next owner to the gifts.
4 - Change the name of the box to the same name as the gift inside it.
5 - Go to the Object tab and check the boxes Physical and Temporary. After checking the Temporary box you have less than a minute to close the edit window. Right click the box and take it to your inventory.
Create all the gift objects as you like by following the 1-5 steps above. Don't make them all the same size.
When you have all the gifts ready edit the Prize Giver, go to its content tab and drop them there.
Once you have droped all the gifts to the Prize Giver Content, close the edit window and click it once. It will tell you (only the owner) that the "Prize delivery Starts" and you will start viewing how the gifts start coming out of the Prize Giver, with floating texts in different colors.
Funny, isn't it? By the way, don't worry about the amount of prims, since they are temporal just count as one.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and we hope this Prize Giver contributes a bit to get that.
