Floating Clothes/Bodies

Post by Daire NiMhurchu »

Hi Folks,

I am experiencing an unusual problem recently with hypergridding.
When I visit another grid, not every time, but sometimes I see people with their clothing and body parts floating around them, almost like they are not "snapping" on to their avatar.

Sometimes relogging fixes it, sometimes clearing cache fixes it, and sometimes it just cant be fixed at all.
The issue seems to happen mostly on osgrid.org, other places do not seem to suffer the issue.

Is there some setting I can use in Firestorm to re-load people or is the issue more complicated than this? (sorry im not 100% sure what's even causing it, my initial though is its load time)

Any info at ALL is much appreciated

Thanks

Hi Daire,

This is most likely because you're visiting regions that are running an older OpenSim version and thus have no or only partial support for bake on mesh (BOM).

Thanks for the reply Ilan :)

That is interesting for sure, would it matter if I was not using a BOM viewer?. I switched back to the last release of Firestorm (Firestorm 6.0.2 (56680) Feb 9 2019 10:23:10 (64bit)) before BOM because I found I was crashing alot when I went outside Kitely

I don't know how a version of Firestorm without BOM support would display BOM but I'm quite sure it won't look like it should.
