My socks have holes and so have my linden shoes!

Even the default 'New Socks' will show a pixel-sized hole on the inside of the foot where the upper meets the sole and the second and third tris join.

Is this a new feature? Can the latest graphics card drivers darn it?

OK- this time I will roar with laughter- maybe giggle a bit. Sorry can't help you but enjoyed your phrasing

A stitch in time saves nine, you know.

I'm sure that hole wasn't there when I last made a pair of socks. We'll be living in shame and fear of removing our prim shoes before long.

Ephraim Kappler chuckles.

I tried playing with the sliders as you suggested but it makes no difference. Perhaps it's my graphics settings, although they are on 'High' so I doubt that. Avatar impostors, hardware skinning and avatar cloth are also selected. I also checked the problem on a couple of my alts. My barefoot size is 45. The alts vary between 40 and 50. The socks are 36 length, which means they finish roughly halfway up my shins.

AT first I thought I had set the alpha channel on the textures a little too tight but even when I go into 'Appearance' barefoot, choose the 'Socks' tab and click the 'Create new socks' button, the default SL socks painted over my feet and shins still have that pixel-sized 'hole' on the inside - where a bunion might develop on a real foot.

It would be good to hear from another resident who has tried that simple test and looked closely at the result.
