Anyone know if the new group code will fix that bug? For almost 8 months now there is a bug where large groups of avatars (randomly) are invisible and just never show up except for the floating wig and prim shoes. You fix it by changing groups (which is totally wacky that it would even work that way). This is really really annoying to new players who have no groups as it just means that some people are invisible sometimes and there is f*ck all you can do about it. Any bets on whether the new code will make this bug finally obsolete? Or will it make it so the bug remains and the fix is broken?  Maybe this should be a poll? |

Yesterday while everyone was in the preview grid i stood on the luskwood platform not doing much. Someone took a snapshot of me and handed me it. All that showed up was the prim attachment parts of my av. the actual body was missing. It looked fine to me though. So no it isn't fixed.

From: Dianne Mechanique Anyone know if the new group code will fix that bug? It's not fixed. I don't think it's actually a group issue Dianne, but changing groups was a way to force the client to update itself with new data from the server. This was also the fix for animations playing incorrectly if you remember. |

I have some interesting Just hair, no bodies photos of people as a result. I have wondered if its all related to clothes staying fuzzy, etc.
Ohh Dianne *hugs*

It's not fixed. I TP'd a friend to my location and they were not only invisible to me, but they didn't even show up on my av scanner.
Friends' list is still borked to hell too. Doesn't look like yesterday was much of a bug fix.

Thanks, CJ.. I always wondered what that was about. It just seemed so random that that would work. All explained now.

I would suspect that the Friends List issues are server side more than client related, so that the update to 1.12 would have minimal impact on that as a long-standing problem area. I fully expect to see more presence issues. |

Does anyone know if this bug is on LL's to-do list? I am tired of invisible friends thinking I am snubbing them.
