Where can I get the sculpty templates for wings3d?

[Nickolus Lufbery]

The first three links on the Wings 3D section of the website no longer work to download the SL templates for wings3d and I can't find them anywhere else. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Wings_3D_Exporter

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Nickolus,

I've uploaded the template folder to Flickr. You'll find it here...

Flickr only stores photos, and that link will take you to what appears to be a copy of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field photo. You can read more about that photo here...

But that's not really what you're interested in (though you should be!). I've hidden a zip file containing the sculptie template folder in that image using a nefarious process (because I'm nefarious) known as "steganography".

Here's how you recover the .zip file...

1. Download the full resolution image file from Flickr, via the download arrow at the bottom-right of the image. Select "Original (6200 x 6200)".
2. Go to this web page... https://futureboy.us/stegano/decinput.html
3. Click "Choose File" and locate the image you just downloaded from Flickr.
4. Select "Prompt to save (you must guess the file type yourself.)"
5. Click "Submit" and wait a good long time. A file will eventually be downloaded to your computer. You may be asked to name it (I wasn't), but your browser's download history should locate it if you weren't asked.
6. Rename that file to "Wings Template.zip". Make sure you've really changed the extension to .zip.
7. Un-zip the file. (All Macs have this ability built-in, I imagine Windows machines do as well).

There you go!

I haven't used Wings in years, so it's possible those templates won't work.

And now you know how to use image sharing websites to share more than images.

Good luck!
