Not understanding Mesh.

[SabrinaFrankenstein]

If I wear mesh products, I know I can see them but others cannot. However, when I look at some avis, I can't see their mesh items. They are transparent. Why is that? And what's the difference between Rigged Mesh and regular Mesh?

Hello,

please make sure you're using a mesh-capable viewer like the original one from Linden Lab: https://secondlife.com/support/downloads?lang=en-US

 

If you're in a "RC Magnum" region (you can see the region channel when you go to Help-> About SecondLife in your viewer), that's a temporary current issue that should be solved by next week.

Sometimes mesh items are not visible, usually right clicking on where they should be makes them show up. Also, in the Debug settings, you can turn your MeshMaxConcurrentRequests up, I keep mine at 1000, but I have read that it is recommended not to go over a certain number, I do not know why, I haven't had any problems with 1000, but sometimes when I teleport the mesh items I am wearing become invisible and I have to right click them to make them visible again.

The difference between rigged and unrigged mesh is that with rigged mesh, the mesh is rigged to your shape, so that it moves with you, but it cannot be repositioned or resized by you with the edit tools. Unrigged mesh can be repositioned and resized but it does not move with you, as it is not rigged to your avatar.
