thot i'd pop in, cuz i know you must all be having the same disappearing skirt issues i am.

put on skirt.
rebake
go into appearance - rebake (while in apearance) - SKIRT WILL DISAPPEAR
come out of appearance
rebake
go into appearance 2-3 seconds
come out but DO NOT rebake

should be working

if not, repeat 2-3 times if necessary. i had to repeat twice with my alt, but all my skirts work great now.

it's the rebaking while in appearance that seems to reverse the issue. good luck.

after rebaking, do you suggest washing, and if so should we rinse and repeat?

this would fit the LL meaning of the world "resolved"


For most of us "resolved" would be

1. Put on Skirt. It will be visible.
2. Done.

Three passes through this circus act, PLUS one final rebake after that, and the skirt that did this the worst for my one alt finally seems 'fixed'... for now... Not holding my breath.

Disappearing Skirt - RESOLVED


Well now this was the most disappointing thread I'm sorry to say, similar workarounds have been posted to the Jira, I thought you were going to announce that they had finally, well, you know, resolved it from your title?

If the skirt is mod, you can simply adjust and resave it from appearance, it's only if it's not mod you need to put it on while in appearance then exit or whichever kludge works for you (there's a whole list of them on the jira from the many months this problem has existed).

I wish I could use their definition at work.

"Did you finish project X?"
"Well, it's about half done, but I've marked it resolved."

Neither one of the tips on this thread work for me. The skirt dissappears every time. I followed the instructions perfectly. :(

I'm afraid my mermaid avatar will always have legs now. Sigh.

Keep a folder named "! Pants !" at the top of your inventory, with a pair of jeans in it for just such emergencies... Just remember to 'wear' them and not drag the folder to you, lest you wind up wearing jeans and nothing else!

I remember once I was setting up the skin for a kid avatar, and was just getting ready to get dressed. When the sim crashed. Thinking it was just a crash on my end, I logged back in, and got dumped into some strange sim in the middle of a crowd of people... That naked 'little girl me' *flew* as fast as she could to the nearest bush, then slapped on a preloaded avatar that I knew would rez fully dressed. Thank heavens no one seemed to notice! Still I TP'ed out of there ASAP.

hehe, i like that name. it needs exclamation points because that's how you're thinking it when you need it.

none of that works for, tried the one from the OP and the skirt keeps disappearing at the end, it is there for a second or two then gone

*sigh*

so all in all... not resolved at all
(and I too thought from the title, that it meant SL had fixed it)

I know I had a problem with a shirt I made, I had to rebake 3 times.. then finally it rezzed.. I was walking around shirtless for a while.. doh!

and a friend of mine downloaded the update and she said everyone she saw was warped.. avatars were messed up with heads between their legs.. But I saw her and she looked fine, excpet she was wearing a skirt on her head and had no hair.

Fixes then fail

I posted on a similar thread to this a week or two back that going in and out of appearence and putting an alternative skirt on, then the correct one back on, worked.

Well it did for a while (until a tp or ??? lost it again) but then not so well, and now not at all. I'll try the fix suggested above, and I hope it will work, but I've a horrible feeling that it will slowly become less effective after some time.

I use that excuse all the time. (^_^)y

Now... About the skirt layer... After all that "debugging" how does it look on everyone else's viewer. Should we carry screenshots around just in case?

Eep! That could have been a bit of a disaster! Thankfully, the closest I've come to that is in the morning a couple times when the home sim was down, and I've rezzed in world in a welcome area in my jammies. Much safe that what you experienced, f'r sure!

I've all but given up on skirt layer outfits until I'm sure the coast is clear on 'em.
