Second Life Copybot

Hello...

Not exactly a n00b. I have a few cache viewers. Normally, I can go to a BoM I'm wearing from inventory>right-click>edit (even if I don't have mod perms on it) and get the texture that way. 

Latest viewer I had been using was Revelator.  Very easy to get BoM textures this way, so I can fix them to my liking and reupload, etc.

However, it did not seem to load this particular BoM as something I was sure I was wearing.  Even boxed/grayed it out in inventory, so could not wear/add it to rip.  Concerning.

Thus, I somehow stumbled back into your lovely place and got Hydrastorm.  Was a bit of a confusing challenge, really glad I found

, so thanks for explaining!

Anyhoo...
Now I can see the BoM I'm wearing, but I am unable to right-click>edit from inventory.  This function does absolutely nothing.  Best case scenario is I can get AvTextures and dick around with that in Photoshop, but it's lace, so it's a bit of a PITA & I wish I could just get the original texture and then mod it.  I can definitely right-click and edit other BoM that I have, so this is puzzling.  I did just buy the thing a day or so ago.

...Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong, or is this a new BoM 2-factor-ID-BS thing, or maybe even a viewer conflict thing?  I'm clueless.  Any light shed is nice... Or maybe jokes to pass the time. 

Thanks!

@Swifty with Hydrastorm, you can't rip yourself on that way,
edit a attachment, then go in Hydrastorm Menu
save as xml file, or if you want only the textures
inspect textures on your name or save as in your inventory
in your inventory you can save, tattoos, textures, nc, (no scripts) 
too your computer, you can edit clothing or tattoos in your inventory only if its modify,
if its not modify it wont work

@Lagertha, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!  The time you take to explain things, utmost respect.  Very helpful knowing Hydrastorm limitations and how I can actually use it to manipulate things properly!


I was able to successfully grab an XML of myself with the BoM Tattoo using Hydrastorm, per your awesome directions.

Open with Notepad.

Rez a box and texture it by UUID until I found the correct one.

Then I made my own BoM tattoo and input that specific UUID.

Then I relogged with Revelator and edited my BoM tattoo and was able to get that specific texture onto hard drive for proper PNG Photoshop tweaking.


Extremely helpful...
Slowly starting to change "liking" into "loving" SL Copybot!  ;)
