I can reproduce this bug ONLY when agents Beq Janus or Minuet Voir are standing near to me. Bug does not reproduce when I'm alone on the region or when agents ProclivityShopMaid Resident or Elizabeth Jarvinen or PolyAnna Nightfire are standing near to me. Bug reproduces for me on both Firestorm & LL viewer. We tested with all tester agents wearing ONLY the same freshly created new skin, shape, hairbase & system eyes: https://prnt.sc/gojg4j (Aren't we hot?)

Steps to Reproduce
Try applying a local texture to an object "Specular" channel
Steps to reproduce: Setup step: Grant accounts being used full edit permissions. 1) Rez a prim 2) Edit the prim, touch the texture tab 3) click "specular" 4) click the texture thumbnail (should be blank) 5) in the texture selection dialogue, click local, then add. 6) in the resultant file selector select an image, ideally a specular map (see attached) 7) click on the new local texture in the texture selector. It should be applied and appear in the thumbnail. Click "OK" 8) click on glossiness spinner to change it a few times. ( up or down, does not matter ) At this point the texture should be ok..... 9) TP Beq Janus. 10) When Beq appears the local texture in the specular tab will vanish 11) Repeat from step 5 with Beq present. The texture will vanish at step 8
Actual Behavior
Joint submission by Beq Janus, Elizabeth (polysail) Jarvinen, Whirly Fizzle and Minute Voir. We've tried everything we can think of...
The local texture vanishes while being manipulated, but only in the presence of some avatars.
Yes...we know...it makes no sense at all... We spent a few hours testing this.
We have tried the following permutations Beq in full mesh avatar, Beq completely n00bed to just the mandatory (Linden default IE New> Skin New>Eyes etc etc) skin, eyes, shape and hair. All gestures disabled, no huds, no voice.
Also, "victims" with the either full avatar or total n00b.
It does not, therefore, seem to be triggered by an attachment, it is not RLV related (LL viewer reproduces)
In addition clearing the viewer cache after everyone has assumed default avatar skins with zero attachments has no effect.
Beq needs only be nearby, either in the same region or a nearby region, whether within draw distance or not. If Beq is derendered you will still break.
If Beq TPs away, things will be fine. As soon as she returns, the local specular will be removed, sometimes without even interacting with the object. Other times a couple button presses will trigger the glitch. However, Beq's computer can connect / appear on an alt and the bug does not repro in her presence ( only on the Beq Janus avatar, regardless of what is being worn ).
Using inventory textures does not recreate this. Only local textures are affected.
Only one Avatar tested so far has proven to be completely immune to the effect. Alina Hikari (proclivityshopmaid) is able to set any specular texture at any time in the presence of any and all avatars known to trigger this bug in others. Alina has been tested on bnoth FS and LL viewers as well. It possibly worth mentioning that Alina only has 4300 items in her inventory. We've no idea about whether that affects anything, because honestly we've got no idea at all.
TLDR; Summary If a local specular texture is applied to an object in the presence of Beq Janus (or certain others, no pattern yet established) all extended local materials will be removed upon adjusting the "Glossiness" Value via the spinner or by typing in a value, not clicking enter and clicking in open space.
Expected Behavior
The texture should have stayed.
Other information
This can also affect the normal but will never affect the diffuse. If during the setup above, you also apply a normal map from a local texture, it will stick most of the time, until the specular breaks, at which point it will vanish too.
Also noted: Objects affixed to an avatar seem to be immunized from losing their map textures. It's only objects that are on the ground while using local textures that seem subject to this anomaly.
