rez

Short for "resolve". Commonly used as a verb in online virtual worlds such as Second Life. When an object or avatar is brought into the virtual world, it "rezzes". Textures used by the object may take a while to become fully visible, so when there's a lot of lag, objects may take a while to rez.

Whoa! My avie's hair hasn't rezzed for me yet.
