About

THIS IS AN EXPANSION PACK FOR CASPERVEND. IT REQUIRES A FUNCTIONING CASPERVEND SYSTEM. If you don't have one, you can get our free version - search for CasperVend on the SL Marketplace, or teleport to the CasperTech store inworld.

Information

Randomness: Our "random prize" selection is slightly fiddled to ensure that the same prize is not displayed twice in a row, if there are multiple products in the profile. Other than this, the randomness is as you would expect.
Statistics: Prize wins will NOT be added to your statistics. This is to prevent the database from filling up with massive numbers of "sales" that are just Midnight Madness board wins.
Delivery Timing: Deliveries will be made gradually (roughly every 30 seconds, or 2 per minute.) So, if you have 50 winners, you can expect it to take roughly 25 minutes to deliver the products.
Redelivery: Winners WILL be able to use your redelivery terminals to get a redelivery of their prize.

Setting Up Your Midnight Madness Board

1) Rez your Midnight Madness board.
2) Click the logo area on the bottom left corner of the front of the board.
3) You will get a popup menu with "Admin" and "Add Me!" - choose "Admin".
4) You will get another popup menu with the configuration URL. Click the button to take you to the website, and log in if necessary.
5) Choose which product (or profile, or group) you wish to display on the board, and set an avatar target count.
If you want to give away a product which is NOT already in your CasperVend system, please follow the instructions that came with your vendor pack to create and add the product. Remember, you must keep the dropbox rezzed AT ALL TIMES so that the boards can deliver your prizes.
6) If you pick a profile with multiple products, the board will cycle to the next product - in the order listed in the profile - automatically at midnight. There is also an option to pick a random product.
7) Set any other options you like on the same configuration page.
Available options include:
  • Group only
  • Restricting to users with your location in their profile picks
  • Restricting to users within a specific group
  • Clear or not clear the avatar list at midnight ("Rolling over" the clicks to the next night)
  • Whether to trigger "midnight" immediately when target is reached
  • Specific target number of avatars (Default is "1")
  • Pick prizes randomly instead of cycling in order

FAQ / Troubleshooting

Q. Are copiable prizes won in a Midnight Madness board usually available through the standard redelivery terminal or do I need a special one?
A. There is no MM-specific redelivery terminal - all redeliveries happen via the regular redelivery terminal.
