Problem with Alphas and System Avatar Textures Not Working

[Vanity Fair]

For some reason I can't get my system avatar textures to display. Alphas don't work either. Here's the default Sauin demon avatar to show you the problems I am having. The clothing alphas aren't working, and none of the system avatar textures like skin are working.

I have relogged in and out several times and it doesn't fix the problem. Tried loading different system, (non-mesh) avatars, same problem.

Did a Forece Appearance Rebake (Ctr-Alt-R) and that didn't work either.

Any other ideas on what I can try? I'm stumped. I can see textures on OTHER avatars, just not mine.

I just tried loading one of my alts and I have the same problem with her, too.

Same! I look half grey, and everyone else is an orange cloud.

5 People in my sim are cloud ruth's. It is an issue. Hopefully LL is aware.

/me goes to make another pot of coffee...and settles in for a wait.

Same issue as well, thought it was just me.

 

 

seems if you do edit shape, it clears it up.

Oh thank you for that tip! Edit shape worked for me.

Editing the shape might fix the alpha layer but the hovering heigth seems messed up as well

Yes! Going into Edit Shape does fix the problem! Thank you Sorciaa!

Must be a server problem or something else at LL's end logged a couple of alts in to my home sim skin and alphas not working on either and the Firestorm support group just reported grid wide issues with baking  going in to edit appearance mode did sort it

[KittyRenamon]

Hope this get fixed..

[purrrkitten]

I'm not having issues.

Unscheduled maintenance is to blame

I'd suggest it's the problems that should be blamed for the unscheduled maintenance, rather than the unscheduled maintenance take the blame for the problems.

The old, "which came first, the diddling or the glitch?" question!

Me too!!!! Edit shape....in and out cleared it. Thank goodness I read this first.

It saved me from running to the door screaming......................

It seems like edit shape makes your avatar look okay to you, but not to everyone else.  They'll fix it of course, but until then Edit Shape only seems to help you look better to yourself (in my case at least).

This is genius!

Most definitely the bakes server is having issues. Since regular assets do not seem to be having an issue, it is easily isolated to the bake server. It could be one of the following:

• Someone unplugged something(metaphorically, stopped a service or changed something on production by accident)
• Server is having issues downloading assets (unlikely as we can still download regular assets)
• Server is having rastering issues (plausible, it could be stuck trying to raster a single asset)
• Server is having issues uploading (plausible, but unlikely. If internal access to the asset server is authenticated, the upload key might have been invalidated or it just cannot route to the asset server)

It is also possible that the bakes server is still uploading stuff but the asset server isn't saving temporary assets correctly.

Should be a relatively easy thing to fix once the issue is pin pointed.. unless it is a hardware issue, in which case they got to perform physical surgery on the server.

Today "again" this error. I did some changes (change appearance, new firestorm clean install), but nothing. My new looks seems gray forever *sign*. So i though in a bad way....And if i change the password...

Simply, works *ha*.
