=====================
DETAILED INFORMATION
=====================

The alchemy armoire contains different menu-driven special effects ranging from animated textures (with on/off option) and animated prim effects to particles, and was created with love for details, fun, and custom textures.

The prims of the magic spheres offer different states, which you can access by menu to add the extra magic to your photoshooting or roleplay experience. To access the menu, click the cauldron. Menu offers you the following options:

• choose default sceneries or disable all special effects,
• add boiling cauldron, or turn them back off,
• select the state of the spell’s magic beams,
• set permissions who may access the above mentioned options to anyone, group, or owner only. – Default on rez is set to OWNER ONLY, pose menu is not effected by this selection.

Please keep in mind: To see glow and light, it requires for at least ‘basic shaders’ and ‘nearby local lights’ being enabled in preferences – ‘at least’ cause Windlight is obviously more picture taking fun ;-) )

*ANIMATED PRIMS:
——————–

The spell adjustment menu works with stored prim animation frames – as a result of this you cannot [shift]-copy the spell because it would delete the stored frames and the copy of the prop will not function correctly – if you need multiple copies of the prop, ALWAYS rezz from inventory to ensure it works! Same applies for resetting: If required, rezz a fresh copy from inventory and delete the old one.

ATTACHMENTS:
—————-

The attachments come with (transfer/no copy) settings so you can pass it to your model – or rezz the items and position them instead if you’re unsure that they will give it back!

“War of the elements…”

“Of Fire and Ice…”
December 2010
======

Sourceress SET 7 -Of Fire and Ice- has been inspired by the horrible amount of snow this year and the wishful dreaming of an open fire place – which I don’t have. *grumbles* So bad for me, but lucky for you, the result is an Elementalist themed magic photoprop visualizing the battle of fire and ice – or if you’re roleplaying in SL, it might find it’s way into a permanent part of your RP character’s ritual room, who knows.

The set contains photography props and poses with the following properties:

10 POSES (no mod/no transfer):

DETAILED INFORMATION REGARDING CONTENT
=====================================

The magic yin yang spell is surrounded by menu-driven energy swirls, a sculpted book, snowflakes and blazing fire with animated textures.

The prims of the magic spheres offer different states for fire and ice, which you can access by menu to add the extra magic to your photoshooting or roleplay experience. To access the menu, click the book lying on the ground. Menu offers you the following options:

• choose default sceneries or disable all special effects,
• add snow particles, or turn them back off,
• select the state of the spell’s magic spheres: choose individual sizes for fire and ice spell effects
• set permissions who may access the above mentioned options to anyone, group, or owner only. – Default on rez is set to OWNER ONLY, pose menu is not effected by this selection.

Please keep in mind: To see glow and light, it requires for at least ‘basic shaders’ and ‘nearby local lights’ being enabled in preferences – ‘at least’ cause Windlight is obviously more picture taking fun ;-) )

*ANIMATED PRIMS:
——————–

The spell adjustment menu works with stored prim animation frames – as a result of this you cannot [shift]-copy the spell because it would delete the stored frames and the copy of the prop will not function correctly – if you need multiple copies of the prop, ALWAYS rezz from inventory to ensure it works! Same applies for resetting: If required, rezz a fresh copy from inventory and delete the old one.

ATTACHMENTS:
—————-

The attachments come with (transfer/no copy) settings so you can pass it to your model – or rezz the object (11 PRIMS) and position it instead if you’re unsure that they will give it back! The left-hand spells are animated and can be changed by menu to the appearance you prefer with the currently used pose. Particles can be turned on or off.

Please do not change the attachment point from left hand – due to the poses, the animation is very dynamic in its positioning, and will not work properly (or you need to move it around a lot) if it is attached to another point on the avatar.

=====================================
DETAILED INFORMATION REGARDING CONTENT
=====================================

The exorcism altar is surrounded by magic energy swirls, and decorated with different ritual paraphenalia, pentagrams, skulls and candles. All candles are created with digitally drawn particle flames – no transparency halos or unreal-looking fire but exactly that flickering you’d expect to see!

And there might be even a rat or two peeking out between the old parchments and books, and heavy chains are hanging down from the massive stone surface. Along with the change of exorcist poses, the prims of the exorcism altar are animated and will add the extra magic to your photoshooting or roleplay experience. Optional you can use an alter with additional “Outer Circle” – summoning space for 10 people, allowing them all to change places and individually adjust the height of their position by /1a command.

Beyond that, depending on your personal taste or light surrounding, you have the following additional options when clicking the top parchment roll which lies lefthand on the altar surface (the one that shows the exorcism illustration):
• add particles to the spellcasting of the outer circle, or turn them back off
• select the positioning of the chains – they can be either hanging down to go with the groundSit ‘victim’ poses, or lying up on the altar to tie the possessed person down for a bit more drama (3 presets are offered at this point to allow small to tall AVies to reach the cuffs – additional pose-adjustment will likely be required through /1a menu)
• set permissions who may access the above mentioned options to anyone, group, or owner only. – Default on rez is set to OWNER ONLY.

Please keep in mind: To see glow and light, it requires for at least ‘basic shaders’ and ‘nearby local lights’ being enabled in preferences – ‘at least’ cause Windlight is obviously more picture taking fun ;-) )

Pose Fair 2010 is open!

And we’re right there along with a whole bunch of talented creators. You find us at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Shisei/13/131/21 during the time of April 2nd to 16th. Stop by for our new releases, which will be first available at pose fair!

To celebrate arriving of spring and speed up the sun’s decision to finally come back out, we released our (*FetishCabaret “ShowGirl”, “ShowDiva” and “FeatherQueen” in sunny **CANARY YELLOW**, packed our fruitFetish! sets into #1-4, #5-8, #9-12 combiPacks which will give a 50% donation to ‘motivation’, and added two new sets of our Sourceress series, “Exorcism” and “Source of Life” to the (*chanimations collection!

A very special HUGE thank you goes to Surreal LeShelle from Deviance, who instantly jumped on board when I told her about my idea for the “Exorcism” poster! Without her help and willingness to speed up the recoloring into cream of her stunning new “Enchantress” release (it’s not in the store yet, so you will need to live with the eye-candy only for now), I wouldn’t have been able to even plan the full 10-people Outer Circle shootings of the new “Exorcism” set.

And of course then comes the next SUPER-HUGE thanks to our 10 models who spontaneously went through lag and pain to join the shooting of the “Exorcism/Enchantress” posters: Phoebe, Rena, Guinevere, Chic, Kit, Gudia, Madisen, Finn, Evadnea and Kimi.

I will post you our usual content descriptions here in the course of the day (of course all sets come with a bunch of attachment props, rezzable props and poses), but for now here’s a few pictures for you as a warm-up of the new magic releases!

Tired of ‘the perfect location’ and finding out there are no rezzing rights? Tired of studio-backgrounds and flat images that don’t leave much room for camera angles? We’re gonna change that!

Our series of photostages will offer you quick access to whichever world you’re looking for… It doesn’t matter anymore if you have your shootings at your home sim or simply a public sandbox – Make the sky your stage. Whenever. Whereever!

As with all our creations, with much love for the detail, high quality custom textures and allowing you as much flexibility as possible, with as little prims as possible!

-Sourceress Lair-
PhotoStage
======
•

As the name indicates, the ‘Sourceress Lair’ is our stageing addition to (*chanimations Sourceress series and offers a perfect background blend to all the current and future sets availabe, as well as those pieces released in our ‘!dM Evil Furniture’ series. The build is themed in a medieval fantasy & magic style, softly patterned velvet fabric and precious stones decorating the walls between old stone pillars on the upper level, and a ritual room crafted of dark stone on the lower level – or you could make it a medieval gorean flavor throne-room with attached dungeon if that’s the direction you want to furnish it *laughs*. The stage would allow for both options.

The photostage itself does not include any poses or furniture, but contains three different sizes of fire bowls with softly flickering animated fire-textures. A version with lightsource or without SL light is included of each size. Please keep in mind: To see the difference, ‘basic shaders’ and ‘nearby local lights’ must be enabled in preferences AND it requires for you to be within a radius of 10m for the small and 20m for the larger firebowls!

The photostage is menu-driven and allows you to pick between 4 colors (red, brown, blue or black) as well as a privacy mode with solid outside walls, or photography mode which will turn 2 of the outer walls to transparent to allow you easier navigation with the camera should you wish an agle close to the wall. ‘Options’ menu allows you to set permissions who may control the menu besides you, it allows for owner only, group, or public use. Default on rezzing is set to OWNER. All scripts run as MONO.

PRIMCOUNTS and FOOTPRINT
——————————-

We try to keep our photostages as low-prim as possible – so they are stages, and not replacement for homes and sim-decorations (unless you don’t mind the fact the outside shape is simply a black block). Please keep this in mind.

Anyhow, here the stats:

Sourceress Lair Photostage is build on a basis of 24×24 squaremeters, and approx. 12m height. The entrance to the box is on the upper left corner, so you enter from top and all levels are ‘underground’. You could attach it as a ‘basement’ to a skybox or plattform, or if you have terraforming rights on the land you own, you can use the box as basement-level of a building and simply move it underground. (make sure the land is high enough to not hit water).

Alltogether, the full stage consists of 35 prims for the main build, plus additional prims depending on how many firebowls you choose to rezz. A low-prim version of the stage is included with 25 prims, for this version the lightsources, carpet leading to the plattform on the upper floor, and the colums in the room of the lower floor have been taken out.
