Noobie Post: Avatar clothes not updating

Post by lilshtz »

Hello all,

Apologies in advance for the noobie question.

I am testing the examples and wondering if the behavior that I am seeing is the correct behavior. On the FarWest_Ranch example I am using two browsers to simulate 2 users. This works fine, and I can walk around, and see the avatars walk around in each window.

When I press the "Change my Skin" button for Player 1, that player can see his avatar change (to a woman). However, on the other browser (player 2's browser) the avatar for player 1 remains unchanged. I thought that the OpenSpace.setMyAvatarSkin method was supposed to update all clients when a skin was changed?

Also on a possibly related note, in the same example, when I put clothes on my avatar, and enter a new 'room' (in this case the inside of the house) the avatar's clothes are missing.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Not in the trial version.
when the skin of an avatar is changed (through the OpenSpace.setMyAvatarSkin method), this action is not broadcasted to the other clients;
