Unable to Link

For whatever reason, I had a new problem spring up today, I wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this. While building, and trying to link objects, I am getting a pop up saying the parts are to far apart. Now I've gotten this over the years when I was building something large and I didn't pay attention to what I was doing. This, however, is totally different, all my prims are within a 4 meter radius. I'm talking right on top and touching each other. Is there a new bug (silly question, always new bugs) that I should know about ?

Yeah, I've been having the same problem. It doesn't happen all the time, and more often than not I get that problem when I'm linking tiny things rather than very large things. I thought for a moment it might be due to sculpties, but the thing I was linking had none in it.

Yea I'm not using any sculpties and nothing is scripted, its driving me nuts

Sometimes that will happen if one of your prims has gone wonky. Try linking in small batches, adding one prim at a time. Usually you will find the prim that is no good that way.

I'm trying to link a set of prims and can't. What I did was to create a linked object from several prims (that part was fine) then copied the set and tried to link the second set to the first. They are small and right next to each other, but I get the "too far apart" error.

I'm having troubles linking a large build - just starting to make big things. I have a store that I am working on and I'm getting that error, but I did with my last building, too. Will try the one prim at a time thing and see how that works, as I would really like to only have one group for my prim.

I do have a couple of giant 20x20 prims, could that be part of the problem?

Hey Koose,

I've experienced your problem before. I resolved the issue but taking the group of objects I was trying to link into my inventory, re-rezzing in-world, then linking, which seemed to solve my problem. Quite the hack-around, I have no clue why that worked for me, but it did. Might just work fo you as well.

Stupid answer, but worked for me.

I have taken Isablan's route as well, linking small batches and re-creating the problematic prim once I found it.
