Mae Frenzy Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Hi all. I need some advice. recently. certain shoes that I own, have started to look wrong within second life.. Below is what I see. I have been told that the shoes look fine to other people.. which i means i think i might have done somthing wrong on my side of the viewer./. Has anyone ever seen this before? i have tired clearing cache? reinstall of viewer.. but im afraid i dont know alot of the technical stuff that goes with it. Any ideas all? and may thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda Huntress Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 They look "fine" to anyone with an older viewer. That wont last too much longer anyway. The short version is you have shoes with built in invisiprims. Those prims used a program glitch to hide the body before we had alpha layers. Later the glitch was fixed so that the prims themselves were not drawn. The most recent version viewers have removed that glitch completely showing the ugly prims that have been hidden all this time. If the shoes are modifiable, either delete the blocky old prims or apply a 100 transparency to the texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethelwine Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 They will probably look fine if you turn advanced lighting off. But whilst invisiprims have good uses shoes aren;t one of them, you are much better off using alpha layers and shoes with them where you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syo Emerald Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Buy new shoes. Easiest method, best outcome. Yours use an old glitch, as others said and look probably pretty newbish compared to shoes from recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirly Fizzle Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Invisiprims are broken on the latest LL viewer release, see BUG-11562 - SL Viewer 4.0.2 Renders Invisiprims as Grey or Black. That bug is fixed on the new Maintenance-RC, which you can download here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Release/4.0.4.313759 BUT you need to be aware that anyone on any viewer will not see your invisiprims working if they have Advanced Lighting model enabled in their viewer - so they are likely to see your feet/legs sticking out of the shoes/boots. If the shoes are mod, best thing you can do is unlink the invisiprims and delete them and replace them with alpha layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
