[Opensim-users] that ol' phantoms on megaregions issue

[opensim.users at katijackstudio.com]

Thanks for the help, Chris.

I tried rezzing & editing on the regions with ephemeral objects, and 
rezzed objects behave as expected, that is, as normal.

I have tried saving & reloading the megaregion oar in question, with no 
success. What I mean is, the whole megaregion saved/loaded as a single 
oar, but it didn't fix the problem. Also tried it with 'fix-phantom' & 
backup both before and after, and even rebooted the server which didn't 
do the trick either.

This would suggest (as you noted) that 256^2 regions cannot be loaded 
individually into a megaregion and still function, although I think in 
some of my reading about this issue I had seen where people were doing 
just that and having it work for them (I could be mistaken about this).

Can individual regions be saved from a megaregion as individual oar 
files? Guess I need to test that, because at this point the only 
solution I can think is to completely rebuild those three non-root-sims.
