Sculpt map disappeared from prim after 2 years!

[Preston Benedict]

2 years I built this bridge and added some sculpted railing using a freebie sculpt map I bought on the marketplace. The bridge sat nicely on my lnd all this time until last week when the object just turned back into a torus.

At first  I assumed that the sculpt wasn't rendering but after this persisted for days I asked friends to come look and it didn't render either. Once I checked properties I saw that it was no longer a sculpt and had reverted to a regular prim torus.

I've reapplied the sculpt map and it's fine again but I've never seen this happen before and wondered if anyone else had experienced this phenomenon?

Hi, about 2 weeks ago, there was a bug in the LeTigre RC software for a few hours. It made some rezzed sculpts lose their maps. The bug that made it happen should be fixed now, so hopefully you will not have to do this again!

Actually, I'd say that it hasn't been fixed. Today I was building some baggies, had them looking fine, was just about ready to box them up and set them aside to be sold, when suddenly I'm wearing a bunch of spheres... Had multiple people verify that it was the same for them on their screen. Went in, reapplied the maps, went on with my day, but kept the sculpties on, just to see if it happend again... it did. Not sure what's causing it now, but I was rather miffed after spending a day building, to have my work negated altogether.

Items sold without their sculpt maps included, when they lose their applied sculpt data, will become worthless and create an opportunity for LL to sell something else to take their place.

Mystery solved.

You're welcome.

Actually no, this is an item that i built with my own sculpt maps- Believe that the original poster had created his as well.

Has anyone found any help for this issue? We have been having an issue with a build that was sold for a year before it had any problems, now it is having the same problem, sculpts are turning to torus. Any information regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated.
