The Riad in the store today

Does anyone know if this is a rigged model (working doors and such) or a prop building? Cornucopia has a habit of releasing non-rigged items into the DAZ store and I rather not burden customer support with an unnecessary return.

Thanks
Kendall

    Don't have it but in the What's Included & Features section it list only obj format and Poser pp2 prop format so most likely not rigged.

    Based on the other Cornucopia props released, they were just static props.

    Thanks, that is what I was thinking as well. 'Tis a shame because it is almost perfect for an upcoming project I have, but I don't really want to spend the time modifying the model if I don't have to. I have too many other responsibilities to spend on that.

    Here is some info+pics. It' static, no moving parts.

    Sorry for confusion!

    Greetings,
    Sadly, my experience has been that their stuff is typically a single unrigged OBJ, with a single material zone, or material zones which intermix a lot of different pieces at once. You can't even hide doors to make them seem open, or do any tweaking to the image, or use shaders, etc., on the items, you have to go and photoshop the textures, etc., to do anything like that, and sometimes that doesn't work because the textures are re-used and all put in one material zone, so you'd have to re-zone everything.

    It's just a lot of work to make those products flexible, and work that I don't have the time nor inclination to do.

    I guess they're fine if you just need them to be filler for backgrounds. I recently had to return a bunch of elven buildings at rendo because it turns out they were just bog props with nor dials and one tiny texture map.

    You were actually able to return to Rendo? I got a "this one time" message from them the one time I put in for a return and I had a very good reason for the return.
