How can I unbug my avarar?

[Peewee Musytari]

What sort of bug?

[Penny Patton]

This is difficult to answer without knowing what the problem is.

If your avatar is not "rezzing", meaning you are stuck as a cloud, or with the wrong shape and no textures, then the best way to fix is it to go to an empty sim (I prefer one of the various mainland ocean sims for this) and do the following.

Press ctrl+alt+q to make the Develop menu appear at the top of your screen. Under Develop go to Avatar and then Character Tests. Choose Test Male or Test Female.

A word of warning, this will dress you up as one of the default starter avatars, you'll need to change back to your usual look yourself. However, if you're stuck without your avatar loading properly this is the most reliable way of fixing it.

 

If your avatar is stuck in a pose or animation go to the Me menu at the top of the screen,  from there go to Movement and select "Stop Animating Me".

 

I hope one of these two suggestions help. In the future I'd recommend being more descriptive about any problems.

There are debug setting that are part of the preferences.  You can change any of the setting you desire i.e. avatar rendering, avatar yaw, etc.

Do you mean get it to rez?  Do you appear as a cloud or only partially rezzed?  You can go into Advanced > Character and pick the Character test (male or female) as appropriate.

/me waves at the Scout, and welcomes her to the forums - but... I have a furrowed brow... after all, aren't you Scouts meant to be the ones who work in the Support office with all the answers to OUR problems??

Just wondring, is all.

[Peewee Musytari]

LOL Marigold, its a test to see how many people will guess what the bug is & the Scout is going to leave us all hanging and never come back tell us hehe

[Marigold Devin]

LOLs back at Peewee - I am one of those conspiracy theorists that thinks Second Life and all its associated websites is one big people study anyway.

 

C- Must Do Better ;-))

[Peewee Musytari]

Is that why I keep barking when I hear a bell ring? LOL

[Kolby Nissondorf]

...& your a scout?

 

[Marigold Devin]

oooo Kolby, isn't this the Scout that needs training all round? Didn't Lexie say on your other thread (about your very unfortunate work friend) she was going to have words with the Scout who dealt with your enquiry so appallingly unprofessionally?

[Kolby Nissondorf]

Yes. as a matter of fact, that is the one! shhh, im not suppose tto say the names (im sure it wont hurt anyone, though)
