Need some help,
To test why using quick preferences "hover height" in Firestorm viewer does
not adjust what different users see I have done the following.
I launched two instances of Firestorm and put them into split screen windows on
a windows machine running windows 10.
I logged into one using my normal avatar, and the other using my alt.
I set the quick preferences "hover height" of both avatars to be zero.
Both avatars now were standing perfectly on the ground. (I spent much time in
appearances of both to get them perfectly standing on the ground and saved all
changes before launching the two viewer screens.
I used the quick preferences "hover Height" adjustment to adjust their hover
height. As I suspected. only the avatar on the viewer I was making the adjustment on
moved.
My conclusion is that quick preferences "hover height" has nothing at all to do
with what others see. It is a local adjustment only, and does not correctly change where
the OSGrid or region servers think your avatar really is for other users.
At this point I wonder, is this simply a useless adjustment Firestorm thinks is
cool, or is firestorm really expecting the change to be sent to all server and
is that change suppose to be stored in any assets on all servers where the
changes are needed?
In short, is this a Firestorm problem, a Linux problem, or is it an OSGrid
problem.
Searching with Google, no one has ever noticed this issue and no information is
available. The instructions on Firestorm read as if they expect the hover
height to change for all users.
Maybe it does for SL but I have not been on SL for many years.
I must point out too that my region servers on OSgrid are running old versions
of linux, and also old versions of opensim. Fedora 26 for linux, and OSgrid
0.9.2.0 Yeti Dev e8735b6997: 2021-09-16 18:39:32 +0100.
I did test it by going to OSgrid lbsa fallback and observed the exact same
issue . That eliminated my down level Linux and opensim concern but it could
still be a opensim or Firestorm issue.
My guess is that it is Firestorm and the issue is they do not say this is only
a local adjustment and will not be reflected on any viewer other than the one
it is being made on. In my opinion, if that is the case, it is a destructive
and confusing optional command, or maybe opensim is not accepting the change
made and it's not a part of any specifications?
I wanted to discuss this issue here in the users list to see if this is a known
issue, and save me a bunch of, try this, try that. At this point I believe this
is something I can't fix, other than tell people that using that adjustment is
useless for anything other than using it to make things look good for you only,
or, for taking a picture or something static like that.
