Item Permissions ...say huh what?

I am trying to figure out what would cause permissions to change when an item is transferred to another person.

Here are the 3 scenarios involving textures:

1 - Boxed Item is for sale - Permissions are Copy Mod Transfer + Box includes a Copy Mod Texture inside
2 - Boxed Item is for sale - Permissions are Copy Mod + Box includes a Copy Mod Texture
3 - A Texture is inside a Vendor System set for Copy Mod.

with all 3 scenarios - The purchaser gets the Prim including the texture or the texture, but all permissions are greyed out or blank and the Texture inside is shown as no Mod no copy no tranfer no nothing.. useless


Can someone tell me if this is a bug or what would cause this? Am I missing something?


Thank you

did they try taking the texture out to see what the perms are once removed from the prim

and FYI most folks sell textures full perm to avoid annoyances to the buyers

Yes the texture was removed from the prim, as it is intended to be used by the purchaser but not transfered

The first thing I would do is use an alt to test your object permissions. It's really difficult to look at your object's final perms if you are the creator. I just tested it and everything seems to work ok for me. I did lose the first three objects I created though. I took them into inventory and poof.. they are nowhere. I guess it could be intermittent database problems.

there are definitly glitches afoot somehow I ended up with a prim with NO perms at all for awhile. That is not supposed to be possible.

turns out that the " no nothing nadda zip squat " perm texture can be used by using the eyedropper tool.

that is contradictory, because the texture does not show up in the building texture menu.

There's always been a bit of oddity with rights. If you pack an item in a box like you said, you need to make sure the enclosed has more rights than the box. The outer box will always dictate the rights. i just use everything but transfer in most cases. And leave the rest open. Sometimes I remove the modify. But I have an alt to check rights with. That is so helpful. But yes I have witnessed this as well. I really with you could preview rights as a 3rd party. But you can't.

But when this happened to me it was one image in a prim that wasn't set correctly. You literally have to go prim by prim and check the contents on everything. Time consuming, but effective.

Ok today the textures are showing up as No transfer in the other persons inventory, they still do no show up in the " Pick Texture" window but can be dagged on a prim and eyedropped by them to make stuff.

It would be nice if the texture would show up in the Pick Texture Window, but at least now it is more useable for the person . the only thing they cannot do is make something with this texture that can be given away, because the texture copies itself into the item as an enclosure.... Blahhhh





Does somebody have a script that can set bulk Permissions on Inventory Items or at least those inside a box?
