Hi all.
A friend of mine who cant enter these forums has a weird problem. She can see blue, red, yellow and green "smoke" coming out from avatars and objects. It seems that scripted objects creates these strange puffs.
I cant see it near her, noone else either but she does. I saw some snapshots of it and it is indeed some kind of smoke that goes upwards and is shaped like big cones.
What the duck??
Anyone else saw this? And how to get rid of it?
Thanks in advance.

Uncheck Client / Show Updates (or Ctrl-Alt-Shift-U)

Your friend has 'show updates' turned on.

It's an option in one of the debug menus, or there's a keystroke for it... but if your friend turns that off, the 'smoke' will go away.

This sounds like the problem people have been having with the floating triangles. Tell your friend to try Ctrl+Shift+Alt+U.


EDIT: Guess I'm slow lol.
