play maker i know it first

#

then maybe custom play maker script for it

#

but think they be long proccess get custom script in we wait we see be whitelist on play maker

#

i think some stuff be block on it

#

till there ready

#

i no developer just think best way to do it lol

restive kindle Jan 11, 2018, 9:33 AM

#

Yeah I'm interested to see the whitelist.

#

I'll jus wait and see.

runic mauve Jan 11, 2018, 9:34 AM

#

yea it going be long run till we even see public

#

i think want to make sure there no loop hole in close beta

restive kindle Jan 11, 2018, 9:38 AM

#

Depending on what they support I guess it could even be possible to program inside shaders and then read the colors out for various things.

#

I'm expecting a ton of hacky things like that to get things to work once they release a limited list of behaviours to use.

Only problem I have now is I need to make a pickup object not to have its layer overridden by the special layer... cuz I have a object I throw and it triggers, but only the Pickup layer can be detected, so if i'm running around with a pickup, then any pickup will trigger it

#

any thoughts?

#

Pickup A needs to interact with Object A but pickup B shouldnt interact with Object A

dreamy dagger Jan 11, 2018, 2:16 PM

#

@atomic shuttle hey just dm me i think you are having all the problems i ran into before, for the layer thing you just have to make different colliders for pickups and for triggers. So just put a second collider on it that triggers the event

What happens if multiple teleport triggers are entered at the exact same time?

Hey guys, I'm trying to import a one armed model. Is it a requirement to have two arms in order to import as humanoid? I'm a VR user, so the best scenario would be to be able to control the one existing arm

#

Well, to be more precise, the model has two arms, but one of the shoulders is dislocated, so I unassigned the entire arm in rig and set it up using dynamic bones

#

MMD Model, this morphs (pink squares) aren't created as shape keys in blender, some one know why?

📎 unknown.png

#

For example, blink morph yes, is created like a shape key because have coordinates of the verts

📎 unknown.png

#

But the "pink squares" morphs have a different Offset

#

Okay, the pink square is the "color ID", then the problem is that black square on the left

#

I see is a set of other shapes.

#

how would one go about making an object that turns off any other objects collider when touched? I know how to do it for a single object, I want to be able to do it for any object it touches
like, an object that would let you walk through walls in a world.

stiff lily Jan 11, 2018, 9:20 PM

#

I'm gonna go ahead and say that's probably not wise to make this

thorny vale Jan 11, 2018, 9:20 PM

#

its for a world not an avatar

stiff lily Jan 11, 2018, 9:20 PM

#

Oh, did you ask in #world-development ?

thorny vale Jan 11, 2018, 9:20 PM

#

ultimately if I could get vrc_trigger to assume the object it is pasted on, that would do it.

#

yeah, crickets

#

basically its a maze and I need to make a tool to pass through certain walls. But there are a LOT of walls that need the feature added to them.

Hello. I've written a short tutorial on flying ships : https://www.reddit.com/r/VRchat/comments/7pnj8t/discussion_i_did_it_now_i_can_spawn_flying/ . Still, I didn't figured out how to spawn them in the location of the "spawner" object. When they animate, they seem to snap to some sort of world origin. Is there a setting that allows an animation to play in the place where the object is spawned ?

#

I made a tutorial on an alternative, but still I would prefer the spawning method

#

If I import a mesh from blender with its origin set in a different location than the world origin, will its location change after spawn in VR Chat ?

woven epoch Jan 11, 2018, 9:51 PM

#

What's the SOP for creating an and-switch using the Trigger system?

halcyon pendant Jan 11, 2018, 10:03 PM

#

By default, when you enter the scene, things animate. They should be stopped when the room is initialized.

woven epoch Jan 11, 2018, 10:04 PM

#

@thorny vale make a generic wall prefab with oncollision @ a certain layer, it deactivates

#

then sprinkle them around

#

(at least in theory, I know that you can copypasta trigger-object pairs just fine)

#

I'm pretty sure you can make a spleef arena this way, give everyone sticks to pop the floor. I don't know about a compact trigger for undoing all of the block deactivations, though.

thorny vale Jan 11, 2018, 10:14 PM

#

Yeah, had I thought of that when I started, that would be the best solution. Sadly, they are in and in place and there are hundreds of them. It's easier to just drag into the object setting at this point.

@runic mauve I use the pmx editor to edit mmd models, not just for translate

turbid musk Jan 11, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

So... I wanted to make a character combining different mmd from different pages, I have the body, hair, outfit, wings and everything but... How do I put it all together? Is there a tutorial somewhere? Because I couldn't find any

steel swallow Jan 11, 2018, 11:33 PM

#

it's not really that simple

#

when you import the mmd, it comes with all the data for the model

#

like the skeleton and stuff

#

so you'd have to take just the meshes from each model

#

and recreate a skeleton inside it, then paint the weights

turbid musk Jan 11, 2018, 11:41 PM

#

The models I downloaded were already with their meshes and skeleton, I imported all of the things but I don't know how to put all of those things together

steel swallow Jan 11, 2018, 11:41 PM

#

yeah that's what I said

#

you can't just "put them together"

#

the skeleton and mesh are essentially two separate pieces that were bound together then weight painted

#

so you have to take just the mesh from each model, because the skeletons don't match up

#

then create your own skeleton that matches the new "combined" model

#

bind it, and paint

turbid musk Jan 11, 2018, 11:43 PM

#

Ohh, I'm sorry I didn't understood the first time

#

Thanks for the answer, I'll try that

steel swallow Jan 11, 2018, 11:44 PM

#

righto

#

best way would be to just look at an existing mmd skeleton and recreate it piece by piece inside the new model

Is there a way with joint and rigidbody where I could like make a caspule attach to my middle finger(with rigidbody). A plane with a rigidbody with a joint to the capsule. So when I do an animation the actual plane spawn and move with the middle finger (without being in the hierarchy of the avatar), and when I do an other it just take the actual position of my finger and stay at this position ?

marsh narwhal Jan 12, 2018, 3:42 AM

Maybe I could do that with a particle system. What do you think about that ?

warm niche Jan 12, 2018, 3:42 AM

Okay so i have this certain problem for a while now.
Everything is updated (Talking about Blender, all plugins and VRSDK)
For some reason some uploads become errors after a while.
What i mean is when i use it i can see it and some other people too but people later on (that havent loaded it before on first use) can't see it at all.
I really would like an explenation as to why, this all started with the huge server issues.
So that is a pretty long time.

That's something you really got deal with unless you want to attach the skirt to your leg bones so it moves with them.

My avatar has an ankle length skirt which has been very difficult to work with, but as long as I can get it to not clip while standing still, it'll be golden.

marsh narwhal Jan 12, 2018, 4:31 PM

#

Can't do what I want to do with rigidbodies and joint. I want to make 2 over ride animation with an goal. First one : I have a stickers in my hand, and I want it to follow my finger movement. Seconde one : I want the stickers to stay at his last position, and don't move if I move. (I've tried for example, to make a capsule in my fingers with kinematic on the rigidbodies, and add a fixed joint so the stickers move with the capsule wich move with fingers. But the problem is that I can dispawn the capsule so the stickers should stay at the same place(because not affected by joint and not affected by bones). But in fact it moves, and I've find a way to "Reset" the position of the stickers : Like it just take last position, and when I move again, it gonna take distance from his actual position and my new position, and move keeping this distance )

c@umbral crypt cloth on avatar you have have skin mesh for the clothes and for the body but problem with skin mesh render if you to many of them it drop perfomance for vr user

if everyone start doing it will cause more perfomance problem

umbral crypt Jan 12, 2018, 8:06 PM

#

what's special about skinned mesh?

runic mauve Jan 12, 2018, 8:07 PM

skin mesh render double the draw calls

#

because of tranformation it does

#

skin mesh run on CPU

umbral crypt Jan 12, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

oh, do you make it into skinned mesh in unity or blender?

runic mauve Jan 12, 2018, 8:08 PM

skin mesh render from unity

#

it when there bone in the model

umbral crypt Jan 12, 2018, 8:08 PM

#

because it be perfomance problem

umbral crypt Jan 12, 2018, 8:09 PM

ya true

#

would be better if you could just make flat plate bones for collision with dynamic bones

the colliders are to limited right now

to many coillder on dyanmic bone is perfomance problem to lol

make it static

it let you draw like you would do in draw rooms

#

I'll give it a try

#

mark? You mean the hand gesture?

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 3:40 AM

#

the hand gesture just move the trail render appear

#

after you let go draw gesture it put back far away from the map

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 3:41 AM

#

basically the effect I was trying to get is that one hand gesture will draw and the second one will pause drawing

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 3:41 AM

#

all the trail that draw stay in that area

#

till swap out avatar

#

if you disable game obj on the trial render then trail render will dispear with it

#

basic just keep like how snail has it setup

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 3:43 AM

#

Ah, so I could make an animtion on that marker to erase everything?

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 3:43 AM

#

just name that avatar draw avatar

#

erase all speed up the trailer render

#

to 0

#

trail render sit to 120

#

but wont dispear in the mirror

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 3:44 AM

So the two actions it comes with will draw permanent lines in the world?

ah, the effect I was trying to get is a drawing that'll stay aslong as the gesture is kept

#

and disappear otherwise

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 3:46 AM

#

@tender orbit it be like this https://i.gyazo.com/3c504b166ba1f35f38a906cdad03373f.gif

#

i add to pen in my world

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 3:47 AM

#

Oh yeah, that's the effect I needed

#

And the retrace all will erase anything near the pen or just erase everything?

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 3:47 AM

#

it erase everything

#

because it same trail render

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 3:48 AM

Alright, nice, that's similiar to what I needed so I'll try it

thanks for your help

Does anyone know how to make a model in the game world change avatars on interact? (i.e. I have a treasure chest, I want to have it so, when someone presses use, they change avatars, instead of using a pedestal with a flat image.) I managed to make an entire boat teleport, but cant get an object to act as a pedestal.

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:01 AM

#

@oak sparrow just make avatar pedestial seperate from mesh

#

then turn off the mesh render on the pedestial

#

mesh game obj then child the avatar pedestial to it

@runic mauve thank you but for some reason it didnt work for me it gave me this error

#

@heady gorge did you hit snail marker script first

#

after that need remove that script

#

snail auto script will make animation

#

and overrride for it

#

snail made so it can do it one click

heady gorge Jan 13, 2018, 4:07 AM

#

@runic mauve oh no i didnt, i just dragged the prefab down to the Index finger and it gve me that error

#

but i need to do that first?

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:07 AM

#

yes

#

make sure select your avatar folder

#

then make sure drag the animation file in to overrride

#

it give you 2 animation file

#

and overrride file

heady gorge Jan 13, 2018, 4:08 AM

#

ok ill give it a go

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:08 AM

#

make sure setup your ink color

#

you want

#

if dont setup

#

wont show in vrchat

#

snail explain that in video

#

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 4:13 AM

#

Do you need to put the "Overrides" in the Avatar's animation controller? I was going to but Snail didn't do it in the vid, so I was like eh is it needed

#

it's already in the custom sitting and standing slots

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:15 AM

#

@tender orbit need open override

#

put that animation in there

#

there not set in the overrride

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 4:15 AM

#

Yeah, I did that

#

Drawing and Eraseall are in there

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:16 AM

#

yea

heady gorge Jan 13, 2018, 4:16 AM

#

still couldnt get it to work for me. maybe it needs an update?

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 4:16 AM

#

but I didn't slot it into the Animator slot, it was automaticlaly put into Custom Sitting and Standing pose

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:16 AM

#

i know but the animation not inside the layout file for that

heady gorge Jan 13, 2018, 4:16 AM

#

@tender orbit are you trying to do it too?

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 4:17 AM

#

make sure setup your ink

#

on shader

#

if dont have ink shader set wont draw

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 4:18 AM

#

@heady gorge Yeah, I just slotted it into the Right slots and pressed do everything.

#

I'm not the one testing it, so I gotta wait to see the results

heady gorge Jan 13, 2018, 4:18 AM

#

when running script i just click on it right?

#

i got this error when i dragged the prefab to the index finger like he did in the video

@runic mauve Is it possible to put the Snail's marker inside a finger or remove it's mesh? If I wanted to draw with finger

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 7:29 AM

#

@tender orbit yea dont need the mesh

tender orbit Jan 13, 2018, 7:29 AM

#

also when I plugged it in it seemed to lock the avatar's fingers, nothing being drawn but the fingers couldn't move freely

#

Maybe I messed up the overrides, I don't remember but I might just delete everything and re-download/install it

runic mauve Jan 13, 2018, 7:30 AM

@tender orbit well if the snail script thing not working you could try old way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqX-9MzaE4I

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 8:54 PM

#

There's also a known issue that does that, you have to set all rigidbody components interpolation property to none

#

I encounter this sometimes when doing eye movements

#

the issue is that you're moving a ridgidbody posistion by one frame only

#

(a rigged part of the body)

#

and unity is trying to smooth the motion between two points

#

but there's only 1 frame so it can't

steel swallow Jan 13, 2018, 8:57 PM

#

oh man

#

so I would have noticed this if I'd gone more than 1 frame in

#

lmao

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 8:58 PM

#

you can use multi frames when you're doing a emote but not for default animation gesture replacements

#

also

#

for gesture replacements you need to have the start and end posistion the same value on one frame

#

so like if you're moving from 0 to 100

#

both the 0 frame and 1 frame need to be at that value

steel swallow Jan 13, 2018, 8:59 PM

#

gesture meaning with vr controllers right?

ah okay, no worries then

#

I'm only doing emote overrides

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:00 PM

#

yep, in that case use multi frames, but start your animation somewhere other then the default

#

like the resting posistion, otherwise unity witll throw that issue and revert the frame you just wrote

#

you can get around it slightly by edditing the values directly on the unpaired animation file but you can't see the result without a preview - but you still need to use more then a single frame

steel swallow Jan 13, 2018, 9:01 PM

#

I've been using the idle anim keyframes

#

as a basis

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:02 PM

IIRC as long as the 0 frame is something other then the default values you're all good

neltharion: is it set to loop?

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:04 PM

#

nope

#

it doesnt make that weird noise no matter how long I let the animation play in unity

#

so im a little confused on whats causing it

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:11 PM

#

it's looping

#

the sound is set to footsteps right??

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

yeah, I threw it in the walk animation

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

when you go from walk to sprint you step slightly faster

#

and it's a new animation that restarts

#

so it's probably starting on walk then starting again on sprint

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

actually I replaced all movement with the walk animation

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

that would explain it

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

thing is, it happens regardless of me toggling

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:13 PM

#

make a copy without the sound for walk not sprint

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:13 PM

#

I could just go in a straight line no other change and it would loop

#

or bug out rather

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:13 PM

#

yeah, I think it starts the minute you start OR stop walking

#

so the sound should only play on walk or sprint perhaps, and you may want to put dead air at the beginning and end of the sound byte so that each footfall is buffered a little

#

if you added about half the length of a default footstep animation as just silence at the beginning of the sound file it would probably fix the problem as a workaround

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:17 PM

#

testing with the dead air at the beginning

#

well its different now

#

still fucking up though

#

#

and here it is running in unity: https://youtu.be/oGbOA_yEIms

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:27 PM

#

oh I see

#

it's happening when you go from walk to straife

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

its happening in a straight line too though

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

yes, though it does seem to be happening less. You may need to add more silence or have seperate instances of the animation based on the length of each cycle

#

the default duration of each animation ovveride might be determining the play length of the sound

#

look at what the default footstep sound is and try to mimic that

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:30 PM

#

is there even one

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:32 PM

#

is your sound on 1 frame?

#

no

#

whenever I do that it ceases to make sound

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

yeah, you need to have the sound duration be exactly the same length of the frames

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

even if it doesnt loop though?

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

yep

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:34 PM

#

so from 0-1:00?

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:34 PM

#

no, like how long is the sound

#

and how long is your walk animation transform

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

I ripped the walk animation from the default

#

its just the default walk with the sound tacked on

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

make the duration of the sound in frames the same length of the sound file itself

#

that will probably fix it

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

.592 seconds looks liek

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

since the walk cycle repeats every x seconds

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

how do I translate that to frames

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

I believe you multiply by sample rate, which is 60

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

and the walkcycle is :59 frames

#

35 then

#

35.52 specifically

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

right but you can't do half a frame so do 36 perhaps

#

I'm not 100% sure on that becuase I haven't had to deal with a sound that repeats with a walkcycle

#

but that's really cool to know, let me know if it works

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:39 PM

#

attempt 7 testing now

#

bah

#

dont know what the fuck could be causing i

#

it

#

should I make the sound file the length of the animation?

#

the actual walk animation

#

https://youtu.be/_jWRo0brlBE

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:49 PM

#

yeah, that might work, but it'll still restart when the cycle restarts

#

maybe put the sound at the END of the cycle

#

rather then the beginning

#

so like the last 36 frames rather then the first 36

#

that way it only plays when the cycle is ending

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

made it worse fuck

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 9:50 PM

#

try the last 36 frames trick

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 9:51 PM

#

testing now

#

now it loops randomly

#

like it doesnt always play again

#

what the fuck

#

seems like adding an inactive element of it to the first frame fixes it

#

the non looping, gonna test it ingame now

#

this shit bugs so randomly i've no idea how to troubleshoot it

#

uggh

#

and it still is fucking up with the last frames trick

#

well im done for awhile

#

this just hurts the head

hasty heath Jan 13, 2018, 10:08 PM

#

maybe stick it in the middle int hat case, with no play at the beginning or end

severe halo Jan 13, 2018, 11:02 PM

#

tried, and failed

#

i'd be much less pissed if it fucked up in unity the same way

@marsh narwhal No, only the model that you chose to upload when selected.

#

But if the camera etc is inside of the model then yeah it would be uploaded with it, but anything outside won't

I’m gonna ask this question here as well because while I have reached out to a few admins about the topic, I haven’t received an answer yet and perhaps someone from the community may know. I know it’s bad to rip other people’s content from VRC, but is there any way for creators to redownload their own content that’s been uploaded to VRC? Having just sustained major PC data loss, a number of my worlds and avatars are at this point going to no longer receive updates and will likely be pulled from the world list the next time a major VRC/Unity upgrade happens, so having access to those content files is definitely a big deal if possible.

A friend and I might have noticed an issue with the SyncVideoPlayer feature while making our world. Specifically, this page: https://docs.vrchat.com/v1.0/docs/vrc_syncvideoplayer says that it has the option to sync file videos but that doesn't appear in unity even when the source is a file. And the video doesn't sync automatically in-game.

@sweet crystal What sort of object

you can have a single particle effect follow you around with 0 speed and a looping lifetime and have a nice emission or even a weapon you made. As lond as its attached to your characters heirarchy, where ever the position is, itll follow the character

I did that with some butterfly that had animations in the unity store, and wrote on the texture files "Go Fuck Yourself" on its wings.

it's overkill, but arguably a good thing since VR is the most intensive work you can do on some rigs, and many people (like me) only size up a little lower in the recommended specs

screenspace is generally a tough cookie

@hallow portal no I'm using the current one

#

alright

frigid briar Jan 15, 2018, 7:08 PM

#

as for the actual shader problem it won't be exactly what you want but instead of sampling screenspace, why not plonk it in there as reflection?

spice shore Jan 15, 2018, 7:09 PM

#

hmmm

frigid briar Jan 15, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

make your nasty-ass anime girl faces cumming texture into a cubemap and sample that...
the sample is for instance
_Cube("Reflection Cubemap", Cube) = "" {}
samplerCUBE _Cube;

and then in the surface shader

#

float3 worldRefl = WorldReflectionVector(IN, o.Normal);
fixed4 reflcol = texCUBE(_Cube, worldRefl);

#

o.Albedo += reflcol.rgb

#

or o.Emissive, whatever you need

#

might have to tweak this mind you

spice shore Jan 15, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

yeah I guess that would work

frigid briar Jan 15, 2018, 7:11 PM

#

but then you should be at least halfway ready to gross out half the general population and turn on the rest

spice shore Jan 15, 2018, 7:13 PM

#

could I just use a sampler3d and use the camera direction to sample

frigid briar Jan 15, 2018, 7:13 PM

#

I've actually never used sampler3D before as far as I can remember so can't help with that unfortunately

spice shore Jan 15, 2018, 7:14 PM

#

hmmm. It basically functions like a skybox where the input vector samples a point on the inside of the cube and then that color is shown for that pixel

#

but I assume reflection actually works already

#

so that's prolly better

#

I don't trust unity to actually function

I have a trail renderer I enable through an animation, thing is I thought the trail would clear once I'm not doing the animation/hand-gesture, but the trail comes back and adds a line from where I "stopped" to where I "began" the animation again. Anyone know how to clear it? I know there's a Clear method, but that's through scripting

#

Second idea was to just put the rendering time on it to 0 with another animation, but that'd take up another animation spot

#

Ideas?

#

This is on an avatar if that wasn't clear 😃

#

It's inside an empty game object which I enable/disable, so the object with the trail renderer isn't enabled/disabled itself, could it be something?

#

Hey has anyone had any experience using a soundboard for VRChat? Is there any you recommend?

dull umbra Jan 15, 2018, 11:34 PM

#

@warm niche Just toggle the time variable between zero/non zero instead of toggling the game object. Whenever the animation is not active, it will revert to 0 and delete all existing trails.

Can someone help me with my model? I have reuploaded multiple times (and just now) and people still can't see me or when I pull out my weapon. If anything I would like people to at least see my weapon out.

does Occlusion Culling work in VRchat when you upload your world? is it even worth it to bake your world with that?

#

will it increase frames?

rough sleet Jan 16, 2018, 2:14 AM

#

@plush island Yes, occlusion culling works in VRChat, and yes you should bake it. It can definitely increase framerate depending on your world, and other things like how many people are in the instance and their avatars.

plush island Jan 16, 2018, 2:15 AM

Okay cool thanks buddy

#

one question @rough sleet if you know, for some reason my player mods isn't working anymore

rough sleet Jan 16, 2018, 2:23 AM

#

@plush island I don't know why it's broken, it might be an issue with the latest version of the SDK. You should send an email with your editor.log attached explaining the issue so they can look into it.

Does anyone know why my model's mesh gets torn into two? In Blender it's one but then in Unity it has two body mesh.

prisma fox Jan 16, 2018, 2:38 AM

Unity will split a mesh if it's over a certain amount of vertice I think

warm niche Jan 16, 2018, 6:15 AM

#

Hmm, that's odd, how come if i move a building far away from the centre, it decreases my framerate. If i move it back i get about 120 more framerate. Does unity not like me moving away from the centre or something?

maiden crescent Jan 16, 2018, 6:28 AM

#

How far? That should not happen. Did you mark the building as Static?

warm niche Jan 16, 2018, 6:32 AM

#

Just past the far clipping plane which is 2000. Yes, static.

#

oh, should that be 1000

maiden crescent Jan 16, 2018, 6:34 AM

#

Never experienced this. Try resetting clipping plane to 1000 and test one more time. Profiler can help in this situation.

warm niche Jan 16, 2018, 6:43 AM

#

I'm not losing framerate now even when i put it back up there, not sure where the extra framerate came from then.

#

I've got 16 interact cubes in that room, maybe that.

#

Ah that's it, if i colapse the vrc trigger script it increases the framerate. Must be all those white lines causing slow down.

#

Shouldn't effect it in game.

Anyone knows if there's a subsurface scattering shader that works with VRChat?

atomic shuttle Jan 16, 2018, 7:26 AM

#

Any ideas on why my OnTimer VRC_Trigger is spawning multiple times based on players in room? Theres no buffer settings for it

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 10:27 AM

#

@jolly frost subsurface scattering works, yes. use sparingly like everything else, I guess

#

I still have the issue with ingame camera rendering things differently than unity camera, would love any info on which settings are different

#

seems to be mainly sorting/transparency differences

jolly frost Jan 16, 2018, 11:08 AM

#

@frigid briar Any particular implementation you'd recommend? The ones I found were meant to be added to the camera and not the character

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 12:11 PM

#

the one I use is roughly...SSS mask and then some magic is done to the incoming lighting. Wish I could explain further but I got a friends help with it!

jolly frost Jan 16, 2018, 12:25 PM

#

@frigid briar do you happen to have a link to it? or a name?

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 12:26 PM

#

sorry, it's custom so it's not on the asset store or anything 😛

jolly frost Jan 16, 2018, 12:37 PM

#

Oh. I see.

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 1:16 PM

#

@jolly frost I have a subsurface-ish shader I'm working on, based on Eric Penner's siggraph presentation and some other similar implementations of Pre-integrated skin shading.
May be somewhat similar to @frigid briar's method, might be totally different since mine uses two lookup textures.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:16 PM

#

you use BDRF?

#

I haven't tested it in vrchat but there's a skin shader called fast skin shader that only uses texture lookups. I skipped it for my character since it's dependent on lighting being good, an in the majority of VRchat world lighting is not good

#

(keep that in mind also when making a sss shader :D)

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

@frigid briar I think so, I remember looking up BRDFs was what eventually pointed me to Penner's presentation which is what I based most of my shader on.

https://i.imgur.com/xI8gtZh.jpg
Top row with shader, bottom without.

For backlit transmissive light I'm using Amplify Shader Editor's translucency, but for front lit it's the pre-integrated method.

#

And like you said, with the quality of lighting setups in vrchat being so.... variable, I'm still tweaking it so it can handle bad lighting gracefully.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:33 PM

#

Your research will probably be of more help to intra then, I got lucky and a kind soul shared their sss shader with me after modding it a bit to suit my needs

jolly frost Jan 16, 2018, 1:35 PM

#

@final wigeon Looks interesting! Is it something you're willing to share?

#

Also why are there two look-up textures? Scattering color + map?

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 1:42 PM

#

@jolly frost https://i.imgur.com/z0i99r8.png
The one on the left is the dot of the incoming light and the view direction along the X axis, and the thickness up the Y axis.
The one on the right is a thickness map (easy to make, flip your mesh normals and bake ambient occlusion until it looks decent)
Combined you get the stronger scattering look on thinner parts of the mesh.

#

@jolly frost I'm willing to share absolutely everything about the method and stuff, except the shader itself. Purely because it's an absolute fucking undocumented badly named mess that only makes sense to me at the moment.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:44 PM

#

now that we're here @final wigeon do you know anything about the differences between the vrchat rendering cam and the default unity cam?

#

I got shaders that look way different after they're uploaded

#

and I don't know where to begin

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 1:45 PM

#

Could do with a comparison screenshot.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:45 PM

#

https://imgur.com/a/lqC4X can do

#

left is unity right is vrchat

#

HOWEVER

#

the left shader used to work fine until I started meddling with a water edge shader

#

I have two planes, one on top with surface water with edge, and one under with the underwater effect. the underwater plane (using standard fade material) got broken after the water shader (that's not supposed to even render anything from that direction!!) was modified

#

I think the bug on that screenshot might have been that I accidentally added Cull Off at some point, but the effect iself is still fucked up-lookin'.

#

after a while I ended up here https://imgur.com/a/quok0 so it's obviously some kind of transparency sorting faff

jolly frost Jan 16, 2018, 1:48 PM

#

@final wigeon Ah. Let me know if you ever release it.

#

(or I guess that's kinda a hard in a place as busy as this)

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:49 PM

#

https://imgur.com/a/9kSVU it's supposed to look like this, the edge shader, and it does, but when you try to look at it in the mirror it looks all fucked again

lusty charm Jan 16, 2018, 1:50 PM

#

No clue how i can import mmd dances. I have my finished model as fbx.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:50 PM

#

and until I know what it is VRchat does different it's kinda hard to debug

#

oh, and related: if anyone knows how to do edge detection like that properly without having to use camera depth texture, please tell me 😄 I think using a different method would solve most problems I've had

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 1:55 PM

#

I'm not that familiar with the specifics of how unity/vrchat renders things (ask me about path tracer renderers though :B) but I think you might be on the right track with it being some transparency sorting thing.

#

Maybe try seeing if the underwater effect works where it's just that plane above you, no water surface one above it. See if that changes anything.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

it works in an earlier version of the level in game where the water shader has no edge faffing

final wigeon Jan 16, 2018, 2:01 PM

#

How are you doing the edge faffing?

#

What I also find helps is step through the shader and send the output of certain points to the emission output so you can see exactly what it's been doing up to that point.

frigid briar Jan 16, 2018, 2:10 PM

#

it's sampling the camera depth texture. it's doing other stuff too that I don't remember but I'm gonna assume cameradepthtexture is a bit of a problem since it's screenspace

#

and also since it's bugging out everywhere and not just where the shore shows up

Alright. I need help with two things. I'm trying to make an avatar ride a broom. Permanently. I have created the animation, and it works. for .40 seconds, and then it stops. I have it bobbing and weaving up and down to look like its floating. How do I get an animation to loop? Am I able to move around while the animation is playing? If not, how do I make my character ride the broom.

Also. How do I make my character float. When playing the animation. I sink into the ground. I have childed the avatar to a gameobject and raised the object, but nothing changes, inside the animation or out.

#

Also I moved the animator and avatar descriptor to the parented object.

#

On the animation itself, 'Loop Time' is ticked.

oak sparrow Jan 16, 2018, 6:16 PM

#

Instead of replacing an emote do I want to replace idle / run / walk / strafe with the hovering position animation?

#

Alright. Replacing all animations with the hover worked. Now just need to fiddle with root.T in animator to compensate for going under the ground?

#

@frank scroll Triggers. https://docs.vrchat.com/
You can make them so when a user enters an area near enough the mirror it toggles it to active, and when they leave it gets switched to inactive.

#

And for local only, just don't add any sync components to it.

raven idol Jan 17, 2018, 2:04 AM

#

correction: Object sync only syncs physics. If you have the trigger mode on Always (or owner, etc) it won't be local. You need to check Advanced Mode on the trigger and then select Local

#

how do i do colliders?

atomic shuttle Jan 17, 2018, 10:14 AM

#

Pretty loaded question @solemn knoll , they can get pretty complex, by default you have Sphere colliders Box colliders and Mesh colliders, I'd avoid using mesh colliders as they use alot of CPU, Colliders also require a Rigibody component on the object, colliders hit other colliders, the Layer of the object determines what it will and will not collide with, the default layer is Default, which will collide with everything, You can make a new layer if you want it to ignore certain colliders, like a player. Then go to Edit>Project Settings> Physics and you can edit what collides with what

#

Sorry rigidbodies are only needed for triggers, A box collider will act like a wall by default

How costly are light sources?

#

#

Ah

#

it has to do two of a player and i think the affected parts of the map

tiny finch Jan 17, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

It has to render the lighted objects twice?

autumn plover Jan 17, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

yes but im not sure if thats 100% true or not

tiny finch Jan 17, 2018, 11:20 AM

#

Hm

autumn plover Jan 17, 2018, 11:20 AM

#

some can confirm that for me

#

use baked lighting

tiny finch Jan 17, 2018, 11:20 AM

#

There is no shadows though

#

Baked won't work because your avatar moves so the baked lighting will be wrong for anything other than your unity pose.

there will be if you bake lighting

#

it wont do shadows

tiny finch Jan 17, 2018, 11:21 AM

#

I don't want shadows

autumn plover Jan 17, 2018, 11:21 AM

#

it will make them colored i think

tiny finch Jan 17, 2018, 11:22 AM

#

I just have a light source from a particle effect and I want to know how costly it is. No way I am casting shadows with those, I'm pretty sure everyone would die.
