Anybody else have this problem with avatars entering sims? They start out as white blobs of light then rez. often they don't rez at all and stay as blobs of light..

Did LL make a default poofer or something?

Hehe those are avatars that haven't rezzed. I've found that if I click the little white cloud people, they'll rezz sooner. Another thing you can do is go to Advanced, and down to Character then Rebake Textures.

They used to be what is called Ruths. This was the ugliest default avatar ever! It's only recent that they've turned us all into white clouds.

Yeah, and they made me add a verse to one of my songs (The Ballad of Ruth).

Still the same bug, but less visually disturbing (particularly on bearded avatars such as myself).

Since particles are the hardest thing for any puter to render, why is the default(ruth) nothing but particles? Is it to prepare our gpu for the impending ARC of the arriving AV?

Your own connection speed is what makes ruthclouds persist, I think, so resetting your modem may help.

zeef - You can rebake by getting the debug menu up (control-alt-D) then hitting the keyboard shortcut for a rebake - control-alt-R, or getting rebake from the debug menu. You could also get Appearance by clicking on your name if you can see it.
