TATARA 4.0.93 for win32 download Virus checked by NOD32 ver.4448
The trial period is for three days. During the trial period, you cannot export Sculpted Prim files.

TATARA displays both a sculpted prim and its texture.
A sculpted Prim can be edited in the five modes:
ROKURO/TOKOROTEN/MAGE/WAPPA/TSUCHI.
The five modes can be combined and used.
Furthermore, TATARA can correct coordinates for every control point in the BITMAP and TSUCHI mode.
For more information on the different modes, see below.

Caution: It is not guaranteed that a display of in TATARA will be exactly the same as the appearance of the Sculpted Prim in Second Life.

TATARA 4.0.80-92 users can use their password.
TATARA 3.0.58-59 users need to purchase an updated license from the serial box in SL at: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Phasic%20Foo/45/28/24

The password for TATARA is different from the password for ROKURO Pro.

Operating environment
Windows XP/Vista - The environment where "Second Life" for Windows operates.

Install
There is no installer.

Uninstall
You can uninstall only by deleting the file called TATARA.exe.

How to use Preview
You can drag an object and make it rotate.
You can see a sculpted prim in more detail than ROKURO Pro.
A red point is the control point chosen.
An orange line is the section chosen.
The gray lines are sections which do not reflect movement of the control point of the section chosen.

How to use Edit
You can select a single control point or a range of points to move together.
The points can be dragged, rotated or moved together.
Holding down the CTRL key during this movement of the points causes the arrangement of the control points to be distorted.
You can also lock the selected control point(s).

The Tabs in TATARA:
ROKURO is a Japanese turning lathe, a potter's wheel. ROKURO mode makes a solid lathe-type object.
The buttons on the lower left beneath the grid "<" and ">" chooses the section to edit.

TOKOROTEN is Japanese extruded jelly. TOKOROTEN mode makes a pushed-out object.
The buttons on the lower left "<" and ">" chooses the section to edit.

*Shapes using a combination of TOKOROTEN and ROKURO can be made.
However, these may not be entirely satisfactory.

If you left-click and drag in the grid area, you can choose control points.
You can also select multiple points by holding down the Shift Key.
Selection and release are determined by the control point clicked first.
You can reveal a pop up menu by right-clicking.
The control points can be adjusted in 1 or more pixel increments by changing the numeric value in the text box below the grid.

MAGE means bending in Japanese.
MAGE mode makes shapes similar to bent pipes such as a neon tube.

The center of a section is moved to the center of the edit display.

The object displayed by Orthographic projection from three directions is edited.
You can change the direction displayed with the buttons marked XZ, YZ and XY below the grid.

Here you may draw a texture, or draw on a texture you have already loaded.
Black Button- The color of the drawing pen is black.
Red Button- The color of the drawing pen is red.
Blue Button- The color of the drawing pen is blue.
White Button- The color of the drawing pen is white.
Eraser Icon Button- Eraser
A straight line can be drawn, by holding down the shift key while dragging the mouse.
