== What are Sculpted Prims? ==
 
A '''Sculpted Prim''' is a [[prim]] whose shape is determined by a [[texture]]. These textures are called '''[[Sculpted Prims: FAQ#SculptTextures|Sculpt Textures]]''' or '''[[Sculpted Prims: FAQ#SculptTextures|Sculpt Maps]]'''. You can use sculpted prims to create more complex, organic shapes that are not currently possible with Second Life's prim system. For technical details, see [[Sculpted Prims Explained]].
 
 
== Sculpted Prims: News ==
 
=== 16 May 2007 ===
 
An update to sculpted prims, included in the [http://blog.secondlife.com/2007/05/15/beta-grid-updated-to-second-life-11601/ latest build] of the beta viewer ([http://secondlife.com/community/preview.php 1.16.0(1)]), has two changes that are not backwards-compatible:
 
1) The orientation of the '''sculpt map''' (sculpt texture) is reversed. This means all previously created sculpt maps/textures need to be horizontally flipped (otherwise they'll appear inside out.) This change fixes the orientation discrepancy between sculpt maps/textures and surface textures (which have required a 90 degree rotate and flip.) ([http://blog.secondlife.com/2007/05/15/beta-grid-updated-to-second-life-11601/ source])
 
2) The LSL call to set sculpted prims is changing to require two parameters: the texture and the topology type. (source: [[Talk:Sculpted_Prims#HEADS_UP.21|Talk page]])
 
 
=== 27 April 2007 ===
 
Sculpted Prims made available on the [http://www.secondlife.com/community/preview.php preview grid].
