Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions for RLVa.

RLVa Not Working

RLVa is Not Responding

Symptoms: Commands have no effect, version check returns nothing.

Solutions:

  1. Ensure RLVa is enabled in Preferences > General
  2. Restart the viewer after enabling/disabling
  3. Check that the viewer supports RLVa
  4. Verify no @setdebug restrictions are blocking commands

Version Check Returns Nothing

Symptoms: /2048 /version returns no response.

Solutions:

  1. Wait longer (30-60 seconds after login)
  2. Check that the listener is set up correctly
  3. Ensure the channel number is non-zero
  4. Try a different channel number

Restrictions Not Working

Restrictions Not Applying

Symptoms: @detach=n doesn't lock the object.

Solutions:

  1. Check the command syntax (no spaces around =)
  2. Ensure the object is an attachment
  3. Verify the object is not nostrip
  4. Check for conflicting restrictions

Restrictions Not Clearing

Symptoms: @detach=y doesn't unlock the object.

Solutions:

  1. Use @clear to manually clear all restrictions
  2. Check if another object has the same restriction
  3. Restart the viewer if issues persist

Shared Folders Not Working

Cannot List Items

Symptoms: @getinv=2048 returns empty.

Solutions:

  1. Ensure the #RLV folder exists directly under My Inventory
  2. Check that items are in sub-folders (not directly in #RLV)
  3. Verify folder names don't start with .

Cannot Wear Items

Symptoms: @attach:cuffs=force does nothing.

Solutions:

  1. Ensure items are in the #RLV folder
  2. Check that item names contain the attachment point name
  3. Verify the folder name is correct
  4. Check for @unsharedwear restrictions

Items Not Renaming

Symptoms: Items don't get renamed when worn.

Solutions:

  1. Ensure items are modifiable
  2. Check that items are in the #RLV folder
  3. Verify items don't already contain an attachment point name
  4. Try manually renaming the item

Camera Commands Not Working

Solutions:
