everytime I try to put on an item multiple items of various kinds attach to me. ?

[Bethania Sirnah]

Help i was just changing outfits when all of a sudden if i added one item to my out fit all sorts of unrelated items from my inventory woudl start to attack themselves to me .. clothe objects huds and so . I tried removing everything -all close and attachments then i even relogged and everytime I log on it automatically starts loading ad attaching odds and ends no reason or pattern that makes sense.

I also tried doing a character test female and it reset to basic but repeated process the moment i tried to ad my skin

I logged on another avie and no problem  so not sure what is going on - did i get a bug ? If how might I fix this?

 

Thank you ..Bethania Sirnah .Unemployed and on sl for low expense entertainment and stress release :-)

Sounds like the "attach all" bug.

I have only read a few threads that discuss it.

Maybe another Resident here with additional info will reply.

 

One solution would be to use an 3rd party Viewer. Firestorm is popular, there are others.

Yeah, Knowl has the idea.   Here's what to do about it.  Please do Method 1 first.  It's simpler than Method 2, and will often work. Please also follow the instructions as exactly as possible.

 

Method 1

• Open the Current Outfit folder (no, don't click on the Worn tab; find the Current Outfit folder), and shift select blocks of 10 or so worn items and Right click → detatch from yourself.

• Note: Do not attempt to remove too many worn links in one go, or you will likely crash or freeze. Also note that you cannot detatch your skin, shape, bald hairbase or eyes links.

• Detatch everything showing worn in Current Outfit folder that you can and then delete all unworn links a few at a time (again, dont delete too many at once ot you may freeze/crash).

• Once you are only left with skin, shape, baldy and eyes worn, you may wish to empty trash as there may be hundreds of links in there.

• Now you are safe to replace outfit normally

Method 2

If the above doesn't solve the problem, the fix below usually works - though it may need to be repeated a couple of times:

• Go to Hippo Hollow
• Make a temporary folder in your inventory; in that, put a *copy* of your skin, shape, hair base and eyes - and if you like, a base layer garment like jeans or a dress. NO PRIMS
• Right click the folder you just made, and select Replace Outfit. No Add, not wear, but REPLACE
• Once that has done, relog to last location - ie, back to Hippo Hollow.
• Make sure you are still wearing only the things from the temporary folder you made
• At this point, you can put your normal avatar back on.
