Rouge Darcy Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Hello everybody, I might be slightly OT, but I know a lot of people here is exporting their custom shape to their favourite 3d software to build mesh around it, so......my "new_archetype.xml" file isn't there anymore and I can't seem to be able to export it again with any of the viewers I have. My boyfriend has just tried the same thing with his pc with no success... am I missing something?I was able to export my custom shape a few days ago and now I can't, is it happening to any of you? Thank you in advance for your replies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiz Daxter Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 For WIN7 - SL icon right mouse click - Run as Admin then XML file will be saved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rouge Darcy Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Gosh, I didn't even think about trying to run it as administrator, it worked! Thank you very much! The odd thing is: last week I've been able to do it just fine without running it as admin... and I'm on Vista BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celeste Twig Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Hi, I know this is a dormant thread, but I tried to create the xml file in administrator mode and it still did not save. There is no file of that name in the character directory. Does the file need to exist before it can be populated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Clary Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 In Windows 7 you find the file here: C:\Users\<yourname>\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\user_settings\new_archetype.xml And you no longer need to use administrator mode to get the file.

Cay Trudeau Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It can also be under logs, especially if you have several avatar accounts. And it is not named archetype, but your avatar username. C:\Users\<your name>\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\logs In this tutorial (too bad it´s potato) Gaia Clary shows where the Load Shape button is. It´s under the object tab after you select the avastar bones on screen. http://blog.machinimatrix.org/avastar/reference/custom-shape/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
