New Release: Chiroptera Wings

By now most of you already know the Chiroptera Wings are finished and available at any A4 Vendor... as well as on XStreetSL! I'm very pleased with the way they turned out, and I think that you all will be as well. They are easily one of the most (if not the most) advanced sculpted wings in SL. They feature:

• 100% New & Custom Sculpts! These wings are brand new, and 100% Galathir's original creation! This means the maps are crafted with the same precision and attention to detail as everything else he creates! Visit the store and take a look at the model... and see for yourself how well the Inner Membrane and Outer Membrane mesh together... no gaps, no seams! Just 100% gorgeous wings!

• Only 8 Sculpt Maps! This means that while they use 59 prims each, they will load VERY quickly! In addition, those sculpt maps remain loaded at ALL TIMES. This means your wings won't ball up when you open or close them while you have to wait for the different maps to load!

• Hide-away Hidden prims! In short, this means that the prims you don't need shrink down and hide away inside the root prim... which means you don't spend time accidentally clicking on the 'open' part of the wings when they are closed and vice versa! No more fighting with accidentally clicking your wings when you are trying to click something in front of your avatar!

• Dynamic Wing Tilt! Unlike most wings, which flap the same no matter what you are doing... standing on the ground... hovering... flying up or down... these new wings react to your actions, giving a much more believable animation! When you are just hovering, the wings tilt forward some, to give the impressing their flapping might actually be generating lift. When you fly up, they reach further up before flapping down, as if actually tryng to move through the air above you. When you fly down, instead of flapping, these wings will trail up above you, as if working more like rudders to control your descent... until you start flapping again!

• Optional SmartWing Automation! Just like my previous wings, these wings can be set (and are, by default) to auto-open and start flapping when you start flying... then go still and fold when you land. Absolutely no buttons to fuss with... they do it all for you!

• Full configuration control over Grounded & Flying states. You can tell the wings how they should act in each state: Open/Close, Fold/Open, Back/Relaxed/Wide/Flapping, and even Hide/Show!

• Complete A4/Sinteract! compatibility! Naturally, these come already configured for Sinteract! and ready for you to customize with your A4 HUD! In addition to all the usual controls, these wings can shrink as small as 20% of their original scale... making them ideal for use as Vestigal Wings on your favorite sexy Succubus avatar... or even fitting for some Tinies!

• Transparency & Glow control via A4 HUD! Yeah... all my A4 items have this option... but it looks pretty incredible on these wings... and I've seen nothing like it in SL! I'll be building a display today to show these off with a Ghostly Glow!

Obviously, I could ramble on and on and on... but the bottom line is, you just have to check these out for yourself. Come visit us on the Grid and look for our model, Dreythos. He's all decked out and waiting to show them off for you!
