what makes a mesh piece "too small" for SL? and how come sometimes a mesh won't scale down even though it's larger than another part that will scale down?
usually there's one dimension of one piece that's happened to hit the .010 limit, which usually can be gotten around by just adding whatever piece that is to the rest of it and making it a new material group
yup i know exactly what part is getting in the way, its skinnyyyyy. The item I'm working on will be easier for people to fit to their avatar if certain parts are connected and others are editable separately.
thank you, that totally worked. first time i deleted extra verts before joining and that didnt work, but once i slowed down and did it the right way...success.
