Arguements over props explained.

[Aeschylus]

Alright, so everyone here knows that some people like props, some people just think they are total stuff. I will just explain goods and bads of props in as little text as possible.
So, I'll start by saying props are useful because of the great looks of them, and the amount of reasonable space they use up.

   Alot of people can agree on the fact that making a decent looking fridge while taking up as little space as possible is practically impossible, and then you need to use a JVS door (to attempt to make up for the bad looks), and it leaves little spaces open.
   Props fix that.
   Now to decrease flaming about people thinking props are bad, I'll explain a bad thing with props.

   Props to indeed make up for bad looking fridges, computers and TVs, but there are the disappointments of not being able to event them properly.
    For example, if you want an oven that has working burners using, as an example, the Player Jet emitter, you cant add them on because of the fact the oven is an entire brick, not little bricks that you can seperate name and event. That, I will admit, is very upsetting.
   One last thing, but definately not the last of all pros and cons, is the grouping of the computers. I really like the idea of fitting the moniter and the computer together in just the space of a couple of 2x3 bricks. I just think this is very convenient. And, as I mentioned earlier, it is a small computer, and if you are to make a computer out of bricks, it's probably 3 times the size of this.
   Since I dont feel like listing everything, all of you talk about the props; the goods and the bads.

This belongs in either Drama or General Discussion.

JVS Content = Props w/ animation, really.
Most hate props either because the purpose behind them was lazy, they look like complete trash, or it creates thousands of files to download.

You were one of these people that never paid attention to the major stress points in the conflict with the props. It's not that they aren't useful, it's that they are made incorrectly. They use models attached to a cube brick. To make a correct one, you would use the blb to make the shape.. Like the pole bricks.

JVS is made the same way as the prop bricks, but they are valid because they use animations, and that cannot be pulled off by a blb. Adding a model to a cube brick is inefficient due to the extra lag it produces.

So if I were to use blb to make an oven, it would be less laggy?

I used to have the Props System. Once my BL created so much lag, I had to re-dl without saving addons.

Everything I use is are brick and events, so I can make a working stove, computer, fridge that you can store food in, etc.

Except JVS doors and windows, they look quite nice, and pretty easy to use, even though their events are probably way  too complex for someone who is new to events.

I could never re do everything in JVS script, the best I can do is getting 2 doors to open at the same time.

Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple to do.

You can make the doors work like real doors, like, they don't close until you click them again.

I thought prop bricks were dead and buried, especially with the release of the new brick packs but I guess I was mistaken. Here's my thoughts why prop bricks are terrible and you shouldn't use them.

Thank you, please keep that stuff on your server and don't pollute the rest of them with terrible addons.

Props are meh, especially with all the solid brick packs people are making these days like poles and wedges we can make some creative and good looking "props."
