Chinese new year dancefloor

Today we added a new themed dancefloor to our collection. This time the theme is the Chinese new year!

As usual the nice textures were designed by Carisma Alex. Three of them will display alternatively when the dancefloor flashes at regular intervals.

When rezzed it will also rez a number of lanterns above. The lanterns will be colorful and emit some light and slowly move away in a very cool fashion!

As with our "regular" new year dancefloor, a counter can be triggered by clicking a HUD and will count the seconds to zero! At the end of the countdown, a new texture will be added to the textures cycle. Such a special texture is included in the package and displays a rabbit (well, because 2023 is the year of the rabbit), but it can be changed with a single line in the configuration file. And probably you will get an update for next year!

The configuration is a very simple notecard with options entered in the form keyword=value. Available options enable you to fine tune the behavior like the number, size, color, velocity of the lanterns, the definitions of flashes (color, glow, change speed), the number of seconds for the countdown and the messages, etc.

Everything is well documented but quite straightforward and quite self-explanatory!

The Chinese New Year Dancefloor is now available at Oggy's Scripted Items marketplace store.
