PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT

Description

Constant: integer PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT = 7;

The integer constant PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT has the value 7

PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT is a parameter of PRIM_TYPE used to make a prim into a sculpty of specific shape and type.

PRIM_TYPE

[ PRIM_TYPE, PRIM_TYPE_SCULPT, string map, integer type ]

• string	map	–	a texture in the inventory of the prim this script is in or a UUID of a texture
• integer	type	–	PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_* flag with optional additional PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_* flags OR'ed on

For use with llSetPrimitiveParams and llSetLinkPrimitiveParams

type Flags		Style	Description
PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_SPHERE	1	Sphere	Converge top & bottom, stitch left side to right
PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_TORUS	2	Torus	Stitch top to bottom, stitch left side to right
PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_PLANE	3	Plane	No stitching or converging
PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_CYLINDER	4	Cylinder	Stitch left side to right.
PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_MESH	5	Mesh model	See: Mesh
PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_ZZZZZZZZ	63
PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_ANIMESH	0x20	Animesh	Read-only flag to query Animated mesh status.
PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_INVERT	0x40	Invert	Render inside out (inverts the normals).
PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_MIRROR	0x80	Mirror	Render an X axis mirror of the sculpty.

PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_MASK can be used to filter out the PRIM_SCULPT_FLAG_* flags from the type to determine the PRIM_SCULPT_TYPE_* flag. The main application of this would be when using llGetPrimitiveParams.

Caveats

• The value of map is NULL_KEY when the owner does not have full permissions to the object and the map asset is not in the prim's inventory.
• If map is missing from the prim's inventory and it is not a UUID or it is not a texture then an error is shouted on DEBUG_CHANNEL.
• If map is a UUID then there are no new asset permissions consequences for the object.
  • The resulting object develops no new usage restrictions that might have occurred if the asset had been placed in the prims inventory.
• While it is possible to use this to animate an object, it is not recommended. For details see: Why UUID Flipping is Bad
