Hi all

Wonder if you all can help me - will try to be brief!

Have a small plot of land. The objects tab is showing there are 48 objects set to group, but there is nothing there. If I click "show" nothing comes up. If I click "return" I get the message that the objects will be returned to my group, but nothing happens when you click OK.

More oddly, if you try and walk across the plot, it is like you have bumped/walked into something. Also, it looks like you are standing on something, as you land in mid-air, but you can't see anything.

Is it possible objects can get "ghosted" - ie, they are there but you can't see them??

Thanks

Joss

Ah, you've got the dreaded ghost prims. also known by various other names. The're usually left overs from a previously deleted build - it's an sl bug which you can't do too much about, except lodge a support ticket. Normally though, you'll probably have to wait for a sim restart for them to be permanently gone.

Ask for a sim restart in your support ticket, and there should be very little waiting.
