JieJie Emerald Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Hi, I am a creator in Second Life and I have been having issues with logging in and seeing what is in my studio, (and yes, i have reinstalled the viewer numerous times, plus all the other things that were suggested) I was wondering if my inventory would have any affect on this? I have over 230K items and I have no idea where to start to delete or consolidate, to lower my inventory any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talligurl Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 My understand is the inventory had to load each time you log in, and a large inventory can cause issues. There are actually two sides to this issue, the size of the inventory, and you connection speed, though it sounds to me your speed is pretty good if you are just now getting issues at 250000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many texture organizers on the MP, I have one that is full perm if you want a copy. After putting my textures into them and going from 185K to just under 80K i can say SL is much smoother. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kia Kiyori Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Don't know if this might help at all, but I discovered that deleting half a gazillion items from my 'outfits' folder reduced the size by 20k-30k. Most saved outfits I wore once and never bothered with again so it seemed silly to keep them as saved outfits. Perhaps that might be a small place to start? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JieJie Emerald Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 Thank you, I will give that a try regarding the outfits. But I still have to figure a fast was to clean my inventory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan Rosenstar Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 You can also rezz a prim, put things you don't need in it and rename it. I don't know if there's a limit on how many items we can put in a prim but even with 100 items in each prim you can reduce your inventory by 99%. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JieJie Emerald Posted October 14, 2017 Author Share Posted October 14, 2017 I wish there was a faster way, because SL is not like you pc would be when you can copy a whole folder and place somewhere else, but in SL you need to first put all that are in that one folder into a prim, then pick it up and then put all those prims into one prim, its a pain in the BUTT!! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan Rosenstar Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Yes and a 240k inventory makes it even slower but I don't know any faster way. Same as with a pc actually. If you try to move a folder to a partition that is heavily loaded, it'll take longer. Edited October 14, 2017 by Morgan Rosenstar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirly Fizzle Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 3 hours ago, JieJie Emerald said: I was wondering if my inventory would have any affect on this? Yes. If you keep timing out during login or you get disconnected within a couple of minutes of login, the problem can be caused by a large , flat inventory structure. It's not so much the size of your inventory, it's the flatness that causes the problem. During the login process, inventory views are created from your inventory cache. A large & flat inventory structure will cause inventoryt view creation to take so long that login can time out. If you connection is slow &/or your system is slow, you will be more likely to see a problem too. You only have so long to get logged in & anything that makes this slower can tip you over into a disconnect. There are 2 ways you can test to see if it's likely an issue with your inventory structure. 1) Test logging in with an alt. If the alts are not affected, that points to the affected accounts inventory. 2) Clear inventory cache & login the affected account. If you can login normally on a clean cache, then that very much points to an inventory structure problem - inventory view creation will be instant on a clean cache. If only one of your accounts is affected & you can login normally when you clean cache, then file a support ticket & tell them to check your inventory for flatness. LL support can fix this for you.https://support.secondlife.com/create-case/ 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) One other thing about inventory that can cause problems - if the inventory is too flat, i.e lots of items at root level or in the first level of folders. You should always create folders within folders within folders, etc.. such that there are many levels to your inventory. ETA - And as often happens, Whirly beat me to it, and with much more detail because she truly knows the issue.

JieJie Emerald Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 Ok, I have tried, reinstalling and installing my viewer, (FS) numerous times. I have cleared my cache, I have done a clean install, I have rebooted my pc, modem, router, I have tried an alt, ive tried my laptop, and i still get the same problem...I can not see anything, I cant even see myself.

If you and an alt are having the same problem then it is not related to your inventory. Honestly that picture looks like what happens when there are some sort of connection issues. Do you have these issues regardless of what sim you are on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Based on the fact that it is both you and an alt and on various sims, it points to your connection somehow. I'd start by going through the stuff mentioned in this blog article: http://blog.nalates.net/2011/10/26/troubleshoot-your-sl-connection/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whirly Fizzle Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Do you happen to be using Webroot antivirus? This is known to cause extreme slow loading of textures & mesh. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get rid of it - uninstall it & see if that fixes the problem. There is no other way to fix it unless you have the business edition of Webroot which allows you to whitelist folders & even then it won't totally fix it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
