Ghost Objects : anyone know what they are and why they are there?

[Chodai Yoshikawa]

Hi all,

You may see strange shadows that move across your objects cast from nothing that can be found using the show Physics shapes/Normals/Bounding boxes.  You may also see many items in the Normals display mode that do not appear in any other way. What are these ghosts?  The image is on Mesh#3 sim with two brown rooves that are real and the rest are normals of "ghosts" on the sim.   These "normal ghosts" are not interactable...but do get in the way when trying to debug my own meshes.  Can they be removed somehow?

That's really interestingh that you can see them with normals. That will make it much easier to study them. I think there is a jira open on these. It might be worth noting the normals thing in a comment there.

Also using the Develop-> Render Metadata-> Update Type  shows the shapes belonging to these normal ghosts as well.

Ahhh finally see what is happening here........ these are ghosts from the next door sim!!!!!  Picture below shows the view from MSB#3 looking at Mesh HQ1 .. Notice inthe forground the ghosts in blue and in the background, on MeshHQ1 the real objects.  Ghosts in view are mapped from other sims that you can see in normal view.

Couldnt find the related JIRA Dongle mentioned but added :: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/CTS-665
