Description
UPDATE 26/5/2023: I've done a major refactor of the main file, and the file size and loading time have been reduced by roughly 90%. Material presets have also been added. For best results, delete the original "Set Nixie Hours" folder.

A follow-up to my World Map Clock sets, this time with Nixie tubes. For use with DAZ Studio 4 with iRay.

The objects have been grouped for easier positioning and resizing. All time zones have changeable hours and minutes by way of sub-folders, though the minute counters are all the same to keep things simple. The file is much bigger than the previous sets (about 96MB), as the Nixie tubes have a lot more polygons than flip or LED displays - and that's after using instancing to reduce poly count. There are also variations of the map with different colour schemes, including the one from the previous set.

Modelled in Blender & rendered in DS iRay 4.21. Thanks to mCasual 's Labelizer utility & Biozz @ Blendswap for the Nixie tube model (blendswap.com/blend/10631 ).
