Six Igaly Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I have a new laptop since a while, and ever since when I log in and teleport to my sky platform my skin is projected on the sky/water. It acts like a giant blue screen somehow. It disappears when i Ctrl-Alt Zoom (out). It only happens when I'm just logged in. Here are the specs: Second Life 5.0.4.325124 (Second Life Release) Release Notes You are at 183.9, 154.0, 601.5 in Noguri located at sim10367.agni.lindenlab.com (216.82.51.17:13011) SLURL: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Noguri/184/154/602 (global coordinates 262,072.0, 232,346.0, 601.5) Second Life RC BlueSteel 17.04.26.325839 Release Notes CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz (2592 MHz) Memory: 7987 MB OS Version: Microsoft Windows 8 64-bit (Build 9200) compatibility mode. real ver: 10.0 (Build 10586) Graphics Card Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation Graphics Card: GeForce GTX 950M/PCIe/SSE2 Windows Graphics Driver Version: 21.20.0016.4526 OpenGL Version: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 369.59 Window size: 1920x1051 Font Size Adjustment: 96pt UI Scaling: 1.25 Draw distance: 256m Bandwidth: 500kbit/s LOD factor: 2 Render quality: 6 / 7 Advanced Lighting Model: Enabled Texture memory: 512MB VFS (cache) creation time: March 20 2017 08:31:56 J2C Decoder Version: KDU v7.2 Audio Driver Version: FMOD Ex 4.44.31 LLCEFLib/CEF Version: 1.5.3-(CEF-WIN-3.2526.1347-32) LibVLC Version: 2.2.4 Voice Server Version: Not Connected Packets Lost: 0/3,460 (0.0%) May 03 2017 22:30:28 And an image to show my "problem".

Klytyna Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I certainly don't use FS or SL viewers, and I've had this on tp a couple of times this year, and it's always a head texture, it's always brief, and it's always when the viewer is stressed... ie when logging in or when tping when the viewers close to memory-leak crash. I suspect it's either some weird little glitch in the base LL viewer code, or more likely, considering when i first noticed it happening, LL server code recently rolled out, possibly an RC channel build since you appear to be suffering this on Bluesteel RC, where it's doing something odd with the 'system' head tex bake. I use a system head so mine is always a system head style texture. It vanishes pretty quickly, fraction of a second in my case, when i move or cam round after landing, that yours persists long enough to photograph might be because of the graphics differing settings we use slowing yours down slightly. This sounds like a Super-Whirly-Problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qie Niangao Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 You've tried deleting texture cache? (It's been years since I've seen this, so maybe it's something more complicated.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It vanishes as soon as I cam around so if I stay put it lasts. As far as I can tell it only happens in the LL viewer.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I've had it in Catznip, which is what I use most of the time, hence why I thought it *might* be a core 'merge code' bug, but I still think it's more likely to be an RC server code glitch, where it's sending your 'system head bake' as a world texture for a fraction of a second before fixing it when you move the camera and thus update the 'render list' sent from the server. Wonder what Super-Whirly will make of it, she sees all, knows all, and has the details on behind the scenes code changes... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 10 years iMac it never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it is not my computer graphics I can live with it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirly Fizzle Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 It's a known bug that isn't fixed yet. It appears to be specific to Nvidia graphics & only reproduces when you are up at a high altitude.

I searched the forums for this issue but could not find it. Just now I promised myself to (finally) get to know the Jira. I can't even remember why but in the past I had difficulties understanding it somehow. I always tried to avoid it since. Thank you . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
