Some of the grid management packages create default inventories including all the appropriate appearance items. SimianGrid clones an existing avatar inventory into a class that can be loaded to pre-create a fully populated initial inventory for every avatar (including appearance settings).<br>
<br>Would it be that hard to do something similar for stock opensim where you distribute an IAR that would be loaded when the initial avatar is created (like a parameter to the create user functions). <br><br>--mic<br><br>

Thanks, that worked! So, now I can see the avatar, but it still begs the<br>
question, why weren't default shape, skin, hair and eyes created? I see<br>
in the /opensim/bin/assets/ folder that there is a<br>
BodyPartsAssetSet/BodyPartsAssetSet.xml file and AssetSets.xml file that<br>
looks like it's referencing it, but those items weren't created in the<br>
new avatar. There's also /bin/inventory/BodyPartsLibrary/ files, and<br>
those weren't created in the avatar's inventory either. The only library<br>
items that got created were texture files. Anything I can do to rectify<br>
that?<br>

Those aren't used to create a new avatar - currently no items are set up by default on stock OpenSim.<br>
<br>
I'm rather surprised you were able to actually create those parts, since in my last test Viewer 2 would not let you wear anything if it couldn't download your appearance in the first place.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately there isn't anything you can do yet, short of having a separate script that creates and sets appearance for a new user (I believe this is how grids do it). Actually, now I think about this there is some code in the XMLRPC module that allows you to specify default body parts/clothing, but I haven't tried to use it and this would require invoking create user via an HTTP XMLRPC call.<br>
<br>
Hopefully these issues will be addressed sometime soon.<br>

The most common cause of this is the avatar parts not worn with Viewer2.<br>
<br>
To resolve the issue, Create and wear, Shape, Skin, Hair and<br>
Eyes. You may have to also create clothes depending on the<br>
rating of the simulator and your client settings. once you've<br>
created these in your inventory and worn them, The client will bake<br>
a texture and your avatar will appear. Be warned. If you don't<br>
create clothes.. you may appear nude.<br>

I'm trying to get an OpenSim server running on a Fedora box, and<br>
I was able to get most of the installation complete<br>
successfully, and I can connect to the new server with a client,<br>
but when I do so, the client is showing no inventory items at<br>
all (though it does have Library items), including no shape,<br>
skin, or clothing. The avatar looks like a white gas cloud, and<br>
does have the "(Loading...)" tag under their name. Creating a<br>
skin and shape, wearing them, and editing them does nothing. I<br>
saw some troubleshooting pages about if you wear all the default<br>
items at once, the viewer makes you look like a cloud due to it<br>
thinking you're "Ruth", but in this case there are no default<br>
items, and I was trying wearing only one item at a time.<br>
<br>
Editing the appearance of the clothing item, skin or shape shows<br>
proper rendered shapes of the avatar in the thumbnail boxes in<br>
the editing panel, so I'm guessing the mesh is in there<br>
somewhere, but not loading. Where should I look first to correct<br>
this? The only customization I made to this server setup is to<br>
use MySQL instead of SQLite. I'm using the 0.7.0.2 version of<br>
OpenSim, with the Second Life Viewer 2 client.<br>
