Disable camera constraints issue

[RobotXx]

Hello, 

I would like some help cos it seems something is not working well with my "Disable camera constraints".

I used to have this option enabled for ages but seems like lately it lets me see all over around the region but doesn't let me see the avatars up in skyboxes. (and ofc I'm talking about the same parcel)

For example, when I'm down on the ground and my friend is up in my skybox which is 1500m away, i'm able to get my camera there but i don't see her and when she moves my camera is not moving like usually does when you are able to see the avi.

Anyone has an idea how i can fix that?

Thank you

Double check to make sure you're not keeping other avatars from outside the parcel from seeing who IS on the parcel (should be in the land privacy settings/options).

That can and often does cause what you're describing.

no that's not a case, that's why i said already we are on the same parcel for sure. and this is not happening just in my parcel, its everywhere i just gave my parcel as an example

Being on the same parcel is irrelevant to the behavior I described, which is why I asked the question.

Being above a certain altitude - at least at one point - triggered the exact same behavior as being off parcel.

ETA: Just tested and the originally observed behavior has changed. So, no idea what could be happening now.

It happened to me once.  I couldn't see up into the skybox nor could they see down.  Not sure why but one day we could, the next we couldn't and then we could again.  The amazing SL world at it's best.

If the parcel has "avatar privacy" enabled, being on the same parcel is not enough. The parcel is divided into two sections, similar to what happens with banlines.

If you're within about 80 meters above ground, you can't see avatars who are more than 80 meters above ground, and vice versa.

Even if that's not the case, if your draw distance is very low (like 32) the viewer won't render avatars who are very far away for buggy reasons. Increase your draw distance a bit, 98 or more should be enough to see any avatar at any distance.
