Jennifer Starlight Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 HelloI was in game and my appearance was fine then Secondlife stuttered and now my avatar won't load properly. I pressed ctrl-alt-R and waiting an hour for clothes etc to load with no luck.I'm able to wear attachements, but cannot change my shape, skin, eyes or wear clothing at all TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 A CTRL+Alt+R rebake works if there's a mild communication problem between your client and SL's servers, but you may need something sturdier. Try rebuilding your avatar to factory specs with Character >> Character Test (Male/Female) from your Advanced (CTRL+Alt+D) or Develop (CTRL+Alt+Q) menu. You'll need to drop your preferred shape, skin, and attachments on your avatar once it's rebuilt, so it's smart to have those things saved as an Emergency Backup outfit to save time. That method usually clears up more serious bake fail problems like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Starlight Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Tried test character "Could not put on outfit The outfit folder contains no clothing, body parts, or attachments" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda Huntress Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 You will need to clear cache, too. It fixes a world of problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always maintain a special folder in my Body Parts folder that is labelled Emergency ME. It is a complete outfit (shape, skin, hair, clothes, HUDs, attachments) that I can just drag onto my avatar any time I need to make a quick change for any reason.

Jennifer Starlight Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 No sadly i don't. Anything i try to change ends up with "...wait for clothing to load" As i said i waited for about an hour with no luck. The clothing shows up in my inventory, but i can't wear it.

Rolig Loon Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 OK. Time for the executive treatment. Go to http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=bake_fail and work down the list of cures (some of which you have already tried, but do them again). Bake fail problems are almost always due to something on your own computer, so take the time to look especially hard at the suggestions dealing with your modem, router, and Internet conections.

Jennifer Starlight Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Thanks for the help Roligs link helped me out. I made it through the list with nothing until i got to this one Make a new temporary folder, and put into it a copy of your shape, skin, hair base, eyes. Then right click on the folder name and Replace Outfit (not Wear, that will not work). Now i'm back to normal...thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been dumped onto random people from a sim crash a few too many times before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Starlight Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Rolig Yes i saw it and it's set up now. At the time i wasn't sure if that was a fix so didn't do it. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhaus Moskalev Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I have the same problem, and I've tried doing every step that people have left me according to the bakes, character tests, cache dumps...EVERYTHING. I'm still unable to do any appearance editing or clothing/skin/shape changes. I logged onto my alt and she is working fine. I've tried all these testes in both phoenix and firestorm and I still have no changes...still stuck in Ruth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accountant Adzebills Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I've had the same issue all day with the outfit folder thing. I checked the grid status and thought it was related to a server they were updating but the issue continued for a few hours even after it said it was resolved. Finally searched the error message and came across this board. Thank GOODNESS for the "emergency me"/replace outfit recommendation. Fixed it in less than 30 seconds.

laramcpique Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Here we are, 12 YEARS LATER, and this is still happening? I am beside myself. I know that all major software projects have bugs, but 12 years FFS! Why in the name of all that's holy do I pay these people to be this awful? So I have made a folder that contains just: my normal shape my default avatar body skin an eyebrow shaper I have removed everything but these three items, then right-clicked on the folder and selected "Replace current outfit." Now I'm an egg. That's a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I assume your ”eyebrow shaper” is in actuality a legacy hair wearable (also mandatory)... Edited October 20 by Henri Beauchamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
