I know there was a gut at the club last night dressed as a ninja. At one point he disappeared completely. All you could see was his name and title moving around. Weird.

There is an animation that can push your avatar through the floor so you look exactly like that without having an invisiprim. Funny thing though, if you're on the second floor, the people on the first floor will see you hovering just under the ceiling. (^_^)

I have seen this in two different ways. The first was a bug where the AV did not rez for me. We could talk in open chat just like they were there. Even the name wasn't showing up.

The other involves the use of invisa prims. These are pretty obvious.

There's a version of that on SLexchange that sends you down 1000m.

Of course... Now all you have to do is make a phantom vehicle and pass right through the ground... You will take you name tag with you. (^_^)y

AHA!!! I was wondering when another thread would show up about invisible avatars. Does this sound at all familiar?

/327/b2/250478/1.html

The person in that thread has been seeing (or not!) invisible avatars, including herself, since upgrading her computer. May be just coincidence that she did that at the same time the upgrade happened.

Maybe you guys should put together a Jira about it.

Tremors starring Fred Ward, Kevin Bacon, and Reba McEntire. The best giant worms attack a small town movie ever.

One of the animations that I have that makes the AV invisible but title/name still showing is called "Vanish"...not sure who makes it, where I got it , and/or if it was a freebie....but it puts you under the floor till you stop the animation from playing in world.

p.s. I think it's a little early to derail this thread with a discussion of worm avatars, LOL!!!

That is where a good radar comes in handy. :)
