Has anyone else noticed that for the last week or so when you arrive at a TP destination you seen to fall out of control on landing? I had not put an animation in my AO for falling and landing but I tried that today and it didn't seen to help.


Thanks for any help or advice :^)

Yes! A year ago, on friend's land, whenever I arrived I crashed in. She found it endlessly amusing but suggested making another, fresh landmark. Sure enough, that took care of it! :)

Also, when it's laggy or you have lots of packet loss, I've seen my AV with arms flailing, sometimes suspended there for a while before falling down and picking myself up after a TP. Of course nobody else sees that, since all our viewers see something different. :cool:

On the Windlight viewer, it seems to take longer for AVs to be drawn in for me. So often now I don't even see the dropping in part at all!

If it's the first situation, which since you believe it's a new behavior might be the case, maybe a new LM will solve it? Otherwise there's no way around it, as it's caused by delay, and the sim probably doesn't even have your AO yet much less be running it's scripts (especially if other see you still as Ruth, or without your hair or other attachments). ;)
