Badu Gili - Sydney Opera House prop pack

READ THIS FIRST
This requires a bit of finesse to place. You will need the Prop Snapping mod, which allows you to place props onto buildings the same way you can in the asset editor. The 'pivot' or center of the prop is offset from the display. Once you have the right rotation, you need to aim for the middle of the black sign on the sloped wall at the entrance to the Concert Hall. See the screenshot for an example.

The glorious sails of the Sydney Opera House have been used for years as a canvas for public art, most notably during the annual Vivid festival. Every evening around sunset the eastern sails of the Bennelong Restaurant run a beautiful animated light show of First Nations art entitled Badu Gili, meaning "Water Light".

This prop pack uses the Additive Shader to 'project' art onto the Bennelong Restaurant. It isn't animated like the real show (can't combine shaders in that way) so you can only use one at a time, but it's a selection of keyframes from the 2017 and 2018 shows. Badu Gili is animated in collaboration with Yakkazoo, and features art by the following First Nations artists:

2017
Judith (Jenuarrie) Warrie
Frances Belle Parker
Alick Tipoti
Minnie Pwerle
Lin Onus

2018
Penny Evans
Mabel Juli
Patricia Ansell Dodds
Mervyn Rubuntja
Djambawa Marawili AM
Aiona Tala Gaidan

In real life the show runs for about 10 minutes twice a night - the props are set to light up from 7pm to 2am so you can enjoy them a bit longer. You can watch a video of the real thing here: https://www.sydneyoperahouse.com/backstage/backstage-articles/badu-gili-lights-on.html

This art has been reproduced using documentation of the project available online. I've made them in good faith with no intention to exploit, and I'm happy to take it down if requested.

@Darkangel this is happening every where, and woe unto you if you misstep economically and therefore can't keep up...

Sadly a lot of the restaurants around Circular quay near the opera house have a $50 minimum charge and you cant get a capichino at that cafe (whale cafe?) next to the water on the left going to the opera house anymore god knows why and their steaks are over $45. Remember its the poor actors that entertain the ceos in the opera house. It seems they are squeezing out the bohemian middle class people in favour of high business ceos and property developers whilst pretending to virtue signal to indigenous people with their flag on the bridge and changing semantic names to places with apologies for gentrification etc that every other place all over the world does without apologies.

Sorry for the trouble? all good. likely has nothing to do with your asset and more likely my game

Sorry for the trouble. Strange issue.
TimmyBuckets 29 Jun, 2019 @ 3:08pm 
Possibly, i created a really big hole to see if that was the issue and couldnt find it still. i might unsubscribe from it and see if that fixes it
Robert  [author] 29 Jun, 2019 @ 1:27am 
Very odd.. sorry, not sure what to do with that.. maybe it's got something to do with the elevation, but not sure.

Yeah tried all that, look at this https://imgur.com/a/e8zLSrD

(the screenshot has both a Badu Gili and Vivid prop selected. Their radius is the distance from the center to the outer bounds of the mesh)

@Chacks0n, I've uploaded a screenshot of how you can identify the boundaries of the prop. Remember that the center is on that black sign, so to select it individually you'll need your cursor in that area. Otherwise use the area select and filter to props only. I didn't have any difficulty in selecting it using either method, hope this is helpful

Robert, have you had any issues with not being able to delete it? i can see it but can not select it with Move it
