• The Animation Overrider window needs to be open when standing up from sitting on the ground in order to activate stands.
• Tiny prims are sometimes invisible until selected.

Known Issues With OpenSim

If you're using Imprudence to explore the larger metaverse, here are a few OpenSim bugs that you should be aware of:

• Clearing cache causes "body parts not found" error and your avatar to login as a cloud. This will also happen on first login to many OpenSim grids. The workaround is to change your shape then relog.
• Megaregion teleports fail except in the root (SW) region.
• The "Cancel" button does not appear during teleports on most OpenSim-based grids.
• When sitting, the camera's default center is the root prim, not the prim you're actually sitting on.
• OpenSims using CS2JK to bake avatar textures might corrupt an avatar's appearance (looking "rainbow" or "checker-boarded") when using openjpeg. A rebake will generally fix this.
• Sometimes OpenSim loses an avatar's appearance, causing changing clothing to fail and the avatar to permanently look white, even after a rebake or a relog.
• Sometimes prims or land become corrupted (i.e. look "rainbow") an excessive amount. The workaround for this is to copy llkdu from a Second Life 1.23 install into the main Imprudence folder.
• Creating new outfits causes the viewer to crash on many OpenSim-based grids.
• Right clicking a landmark and selecting "About Landmark" causes the viewer to crash on most OpenSim-based grids.
• Sometimes avatars become stuck as unbaked (i.e. white) on OpenSim. Having stuck avatars rebake fixes this in most cases.
