Inventory

Stub page for inventory issues.

Prior to 2022 viewers accepted any form of inventory outside of completely malformed setups. Some viewers now have code designed to validate whether the inventory structure is properly setup. Earlier versions of OpenSim prior to 2015 have some inventory structure and folder types that can cause inventory to fail to load or can cause login to be blocked entirely.

Valid Folder Structure and Type Numbers

THIS TO BE CHECKED.

• Top Level "Inventory" or "My Inventory" folder - type 8 (earlier versions of OpenSim may have allocated type 9 to this folder)
• My Suitcase - type 100 (earlier versions of OpenSim may have allocated type 8 or 9 to this folder)
• Subfolders of My Suitcase should be given type -1 (TBC???)
