Ricky40 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Wondering if anyone can help me with a little foot problem. My fett always seem to be sinking into the ground, sometimes almost totaly covering them, how can I correct this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresa Tennyson Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Does this happen when you're barefoot or only with certain shoes? If it's with certain shoes that hide your avatar's feet with an alpha you might be wearing your shoes too far down on your legs. so the foot of the shoe is below where your avatar's foot actually ist. If it happens when you're barefoot as well the animations in your AO may be to blame. Most third-party viewers have some sort of "Z offset" control that allows you to adjust the up/down position of your avatar to compensate for problems like this.

Ricky40 Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 It is with most shoes, not barefoot, so what should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrie Juran Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Which Viewer are you using. Their is an adjustment for Avatar offset in the Phoenix/Firestorm task bar. Otherwise there is a debug setting for this. Dang, can't remember what it is called now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theresa Tennyson Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Get on a pose stand, put on the shoes but DON'T put on any alphas they came with. Most boots actually attach to your lower legs and not your feet. Slide the boots up until the feet of the boots match the location of your bare feet. If they're regular shoes and match your feet pretty well then you'll need to adjust your offset like other people described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky40 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 I tried raising my shoes highr up my leg and that seems to have worked, thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suki Hirano Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Common bug with SL. Sometimes when you tp into laggy regions z-offset is screwed up. It seems to fix itself eventually when you tp to more regions. Do not edit your shoes because it's not a problem with the shoes, it's a problem with SL. The next time you log in when the problem is corrected, your "edited" shoes will now be in the wrong spot. You could try editing z-offset like suggested but just remember to put it back to 0 later.

But that thread did jog my memory, it was the Z Modifier in preferences that I was thinking about, not a Debug setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatassiaZolt Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 A better solution, at least what worked for me is: go into your appearance. On the first page, scroll down to hover. Adjust your hover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monderas Bristol Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's worth remembering the height offset/hover will only work if you have a modify shape. Another solution is to try different foot bases from different shoes. I have a pair of boots that always sink into the floor when I use the supplied base so I use one from a completely different pair to correct it.

Bobbie Faulds Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 One other thing to check. Are you walking on Linden land or on a prim/sculpt/mesh surface. If the latter, it can be poorly created mesh, a prim stretched too big (mega prims don't work really well for floors), or with sculpts, they forgot a collision prim so your feet sink into the phantom prim. Just something else to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DebraWinters Blessed Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I figured it out!!! My feet sinking was driving me nuts... Go to "Edit My Shape" and under the body section (where you set Height) adjust "Hover" -- it affects how your avatar hovers (or sinks with certain shoes) over the ground and your toes won't sink. :-) Hint, you make need to type in a number to go up or down by one or two rather than use the scroll bar to be more precise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
