Steps to reproducing issues
The Sinespace Development team need as much detail as possible to recreate issues, be concise and give step by step details of how the issue can be reproduced. Please make sure that bug reports include the following:
The viewer/editor pack version being used.
Is it the Windows or Mac version?
Tell us what happened, be as detailed as possible include screenshots, output logs or console errors where necessary.
Tell us how to recreate the issue, be as detailed as possible with step by step instructions.
An example for this is:
You change your Outfit in the Outfit window, and when you save and close, your avatar is stuck in T-pose.
You try to fix it by changing your Outfit and saving again, but it does not fix.
You try to move your avatar around, but the animation is still stuck in T-pose.
These are the steps we would follow to reproduce the bug and see what is causing the issue.
