I've had this happen to me when I was setting my things up in my NDE Showcase Vendor. All I did was edit the position to bring the object at ground level. Seemed to work for me. |

If an object contains cut prims, like if you use a pair of half-rings for the legs of a chair, the object will tend to res with the lowest surface of the un-cut prim form on the ground. In other words, you cut it, but it thinks the prim is not cut, for positioning purposes...

Yes Ceera, that makes sense and i kinda thought that.
Is there any way to get around that or is that always the norm when rezzing a cut pim?

I run into this a lot, like when making furniture. I typically do two legs as one cut cube to save prims, and I haven't found a workaround yet.

The only thing you can do at this time is to re-position the object after you rez it, I'm afraid.

this has been asked before and the answer was a script in root prim with an on_rez event that had llSetPos on -z axis so when it was rezed it would move down works well too. id search for it but im at work on my cellphone  -LW |

I'd love to have it! Searched for about an hour looking for it but no luck. If anyone can point me to it that would be great.

Well! Yes, Lightwave's suggestion certainly sounds as if it would work well. I'll have to try that, when I can manage to get on-line again. Thanks Lightwave!

i could not find it also so i re-wrote the script just change the distance down, this is set for 0.5m down // on_res move down
vector down = <0,0,-0.5>; //distance to movedown use negative for down z axis
vector pos;
default {
on_rez(integer start_param)
{
pos = llGetPos();
llSetPos(pos + down);
}
}

OMG is that awesome or what! Works perfect, you wouldn't even know there was a script in the object doing it. This will be one of the most usefull scripts I have used yet!! THANKS SO MUCH LIGHTWAVE  |
