SProps

[SoulRipper]

Discuss in this thread whether or not having SProps would be a useful for the server.

SProps is a comprehensive model pack designed to supercede PHX by improving upon it and eliminating its faults. For builders, this means a much wider selection of shapes and sizes presented in an organized format.

Features:
• Over 3200 unique models
• More size variety than PHX
• Many shapes that PHX lacks all-together, such as cylinders, domes, and rings
• Organized. PHX is a mess because it had many contributors. SProps was made by one author, so everything is consistent.
• Complex shapes have LOD models to help with FPS on high-prop contraptions.
• Accurate dimensions with model names representing them. In SProps, 12 is 12.

If you think this would be a good feature, use this form:

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: If I am building something that requires nice little details, Yes I would use it a fair amount.

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: It'll allow people to be less limited regarding their creativity

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: I wouldn't say I'd need it as such, it'll just be handy.

However maybe we could add Black Mesa props? As they look nice and are very detailed.

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: Yes..

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: Yes..

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: PHX is limiting, so people find ways to try to work around, which result in 'cool' looking builds, but often not that polished.

Sprops would be a good addition regardless, and has attracted a lot of support from the community. Can't see any negative connotations with adding it. I'm sure the marginally increase loading time would be worth it..

[Viljo]

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: If I build something, yes.

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: Audacter stated it. And SProps adds more detail if you build something nice.

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: Jono stated it. More polished.

[Pear]

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: I'm a builder myself and it's driving me crazy for trying to build with PHX currently, so ofcourse I'd use it all the time!

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: Crazy detail will be made and with 10 props of PHX it would just be 1 SProp for a detail.

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: I'm hardly happy with PHX currently and I absolutely need it!

[DVN]

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: Definitely

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: More variety in props, create more diverse and accurate buildings for roleplays.

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: We need it for sure, as said in the original post the PHX lacks what SProps has in dimensional shapes and other props.

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: No

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: Imo they arent

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: PHX is life.

[Rylund]

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A: I'd use Sprops a lot, I'm on build everyday and I've been waiting for sprops since mid-2013.

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: Currently we have PHX which is very limiting compared to Sprops. PHX have a limited choice of sizes for example if you need a prop size 2x3x3 (Or something similar) it doesn't exist. PHX doesn't have that many uneven sizes of props, uneven size props would be really useful when building on the servers. However if we talk about sprops we'll see many different sizes of props - if you look at the thread there's around 3200 props available with sprops. 
I'll post a few screenshots from Lightbeer here, he took some screenshots of some props that Sprops offers - in this case it's a car he's building with it.

Detailed build will also be a lot easier since they offer a wider variety of small props compared to the current hunter props we have.

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: Yep... Sprops is more than a thousand times better than PHX. It will just make building a lot easier and we'll probably see an increase in building details if sprops will be added to the server.

Q: Do you think you would use it frequently?
A:I would only use a FEW models, I would most likely not scroll through all the different sizes Etc.

Q: Why do you think SProps would be useful?
A: I think the main part would be the letters and misc. props that comes with it. It features the whole alphabet in Upper and lowercase + all special signs + NUMBERS 0 - 9

Q: Would you really need it, or would you be able to use PHX?
A: Only reason I would use Sprops over PHX is the misc items and letters.
