how to fix

Default Hairbase glitch

There is a known problem/glitch, if your Hair is looking like this:

Important note: you will only see this when Advanced Lighting Model is turned on – if its tuned off you won’t see it but everyone with Advanced Lighting Model turned on will see it.

you can fix it yourself really quick. This is caused by the default SL Hair which we all know as eyebrow shapes. You will have to modify your ‘eyebrow shape’ (if its no mod you may want to contact the creator of the shape). To do this find your eyebrow shape in your inventory and right-click edit, click ‘style’ tab like shown in the picture below

in most cases you only need to drag the Hair Volume (marked red) to 0 to shrink the actual default hair into your Head and the glitch will be gone…

sometimes you have to fiddle around more with the other sliders on that tab, to make the invisible enemy visible, first you will have to take of your head alpha layer – or if you use BOM and use an alpha layer to hide your system eyes take that off instead, because those layers ‘hide’ the system hair… if you still can’t see anything the default hair texture is most likely set to transparent like you can see here, click the Texture field and choose Default…

now you can see the ‘helmet’…

and where it cuts through your Hair, this makes it a bit more clear and now you can play around with the sliders to shrink it back into your head, after you are done you can click the Texture field again and choose Transparent to ‘hide’ the strange lump inside your head… don’t forget to save 🙂
