Help - Only one of my friends won't load!

[Rolig Loon]

Don't use the RenderUnloadedAvatar setting.  It should stay FALSE.  When you change it to TRUE, all you're doing is telling the viewer to let you see what he looks like even though he isn't loaded yet.  Most of the time, that means he'll look like what we used to call Ruth --- an ugly female av.  The Characater Test >> Test Male is what he should be doing.  If it's not working for him, he has a connection problem that is preventing a good upload of his avatar appearance files to SL.  He should get off wireless, reboot his modem and router, and try again.

No matter what you do on your end or what Linden Lab does on their end the problem won't go away until the end that is causing the problem is fixed..........in this case, it's your friend's end.  Follow Rolig's suggestion.  If that doesn't work then your friend is going to have find out why.  You might suggest to your friend to come here and ask directly so we might be able to offer something else.  As it is now, all we can suggest are the tricks or fixes that work for most problems of that nature.......and the success rate for such fixes is very low.
