Prim Invis Texture

I heard tell of a system texture that hides prims. Would someone please share that texture ID?

Not the av skin hiding textures btw.

Dont need a texture, just paste the following into a script:

default
{
   state_entry()
   {
         llSetAlpha(0.0, ALL_SIDES);
    }
}

Actually I'm looking for something a little different. There is a special system texture that, when placed over another prim, will hide the prim textures. Kind of like the one that makes av skin invisible.

Look here then

I do appreciate it. But that is the one I don't need - av skin invisibility. I am specifically looking for the prim masking texture.

nevermind, the one I posted isn't what you want.

use your av hiding texture but don't set the prim buminess.

Thanks Strife. Interestingly enough - that solution only masks attached prims that are shiny. Even if they are part of a link set with non-shiny prims. Looking at this picture, the head/helmet is a single attachment. The helmet portion that gets masked is the only part that is set shiny.

My objective is to mask both the av skin and all attachments. I assume I am going to have to do this with multiple masking prims. What I'm lacking is that texture that masks non-shiny prims at this point.

Example

The code I have in the prim in front of Sapphire is as follows:

// Invisibility Prim Refresh v1.1a
// by Beatfox Xevious
// last updated Oct. 21, 2004

refresh()
{
    llSetTexture("38b86f85-2575-52a9-a531-23108d8da837", ALL_SIDES);
    llSleep(30);
    llSetTexture("e97cf410-8e61-7005-ec06-629eba4cd1fb", ALL_SIDES);
}

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_BUMP_SHINY, ALL_SIDES, PRIM_SHINY_NONE, PRIM_BUMP_BRIGHT]);
        llOffsetTexture(0.468, 0.0, ALL_SIDES);
        llScaleTexture(0.0, 0.0, ALL_SIDES);
        llSetAlpha(1.0, ALL_SIDES);
        llSetTimerEvent(5);
    }

    timer()
    {
        if ((integer)llGetWallclock() % 60 < 10)
        {
            refresh();
        }
    }
}

*Bump*

Still seeking the UUID for this texture.

I would still love to have that texture ID.

I needed to find the invisibile textures for something I was working on, so searched for them here, I could not find them on the forum, but got a copy of the freely distributed invisibility prim in world by Beatfox Xevius. It is mod/copy/transfer so I can't imagine anyone having a problem with sharing it here. The notes with it indicates it is public and free to copy and edit as you please, so I am sharing it here.

This invisiblitiiy prim hide my avatar and my attachments, it also occulded (sp?) many objects behind it. But his could still be useful so I am sharing it here.

EDIT: after posting all that I found it was already here....

For the sake of completness, here's a "drop in prim and forget" version by Strife Onizuka, from another thread

//strife onizuka (c) 
//string cloak = "e97cf410-8e61-7005-ec06-629eba4cd1fb"; //simple cloak 
string cloak = "38b86f85-2575-52a9-a531-23108d8da837"; //uber cloak, hides 95% of prims 

default 
{ 
    state_entry() 
    { 
        llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_TEXTURE, ALL_SIDES, cloak, <0,0,0>, <0.475, 0.5, 0>, 0.0, PRIM_BUMP_SHINY, ALL_SIDES, PRIM_SHINY_NONE, PRIM_BUMP_BRIGHT]); 
        llRemoveInventory(llGetScriptName()); 
    } 
}

Am curious if the "quirkiness" of invisibility mentioned in the other script isn't just a side-effect of regular z-sorting issues that happen with primitives.. and as such, if the whole refresh thing along with timer doesn't only add extra lag for questionable benefits o.O;

omg... doesn't anybody read the wiki any more

They don't want a texture that is just completely transparent Norman. They want a texture that will hide everything behind it while appearing transparent. Try one of the scripts above on a decent-sized prim and you will see.

Oh, and be careful, because it can be easy to lose track of. Even if you turn on highlighting of transparent objects you cannot see the invisiprim or the things it cloaks. Best might be to wear it so you don't leave an invisi-prim sitting around somewhere.

the texture that makes skin transparent WILL mask prims as well if they are set very slightly transparent. (like alpha of 1)

(and I'm talking about setting the alpha to 1 on the prims to be hidden, not the hiding texture)

That barely works... spotty at best. What good is that?

Mostly female shoes it makes parts of your avatar covered with it disappear, amongst other things, so it's crucial help in removing from view the feet bits that'd otherwise stick out of high heels and such. Also used for tricks like artificial limbs or 'invisible' avatars (although this tends to wind up rather silly looking)
