quick question: I've seen videos of people pulling out objects, like say an avatar pulling out a yugioh card. Is that something that's exclusive to VR mode?
Folks with 20+ materials
the low barrier to entry also increases the amount of ripped avatars from games which at some point might get them in trouble with the companies that own them :v
not even joking
rofl vilar
If you guys want to learn more about performance, Tupper has an awesome post here: https://vrcat.club/threads/what-is-optimization-and-why-is-it-important.65/
@jagged quarry yes, unless it's a full blown animation
@lyric nebula Its true i did rip Aiden pearce from Watchdogs lmao
#Ubisoft lawsuit send it my way
and I'm assuming the Twitch chat is a VR only thing too?
@placid umbra are images allowed here if related to VRchat?
Important to merge mesh at the end of it in blender.
Yeaahh I mean...at some point these companies might be a bit pissy about their copyright
Images/embeds are disabled in this channel
kk, so links are fine then?
Actually i dont see why, its free advertisement so
@mental tusk free advertisement they don't have control over
VRChat dont earn anything so its basically free Advertisement
It is really up to the companies to decide if it damages them
really depends how those models are used by the individual
Some are likely ok with it, others less so
Exactly
Most companys would be like "PFfffffttt KK thanks for the Publicity
and also while screenshots of a video game is murky you're taking the actual assets used and that might warrant a takedown
I would consider vrchat probably under the same banner as MUGEN in that regard though VRChat is a bit more "contemporary"
one of my models decimated to within that 20k limit (yes very close to it)
So I recant my statement about the tri cap. Instead cap dynamic bones and special effects.
no animation overrides to bypass or any of that crap
just good textures to cover over the downfalls of high levels of decimation
The giant explosions are the worst performance hit tbh
Maybe put in something that monitors cpu usage and puts up a flag if such uses too much cpu.
I just think that you work soo hard to work with a 20k limit while in map there can be objects that far surpass 20k
if the population stabilizes hopefully there will be more people in vrchat to have fun than to troll and it will be easy to report avatars for excessive particle usage
Since tri count doesn't matter, maybe it can be raised. Who knows.
Particle effects can be a performance hit, they tend to hit on fillrate the hardest, so keep em relatively small and they will be better on the frames
@cinder citrus what poly was that model to begin with? 😮
Depends on VRChat devs in the end.
@vocal shard sure but the map only has to be rendered once
want me to check @celest mauve ?
yes please
So long as the effect isn't extravagant, it should be fine.
just loading blender again
Anyone seen the working flashlights
Are friend requests working? I have a million requests I can't do anything with
is vr chat safe to go on yet?
friend requests tend to work for me if I just keep on trying to accept haha
not safe afaik
not 'safe'
Large particle effects kills performance in any game but usually those people ask permission or warn everyone first before using it just in case their pc could not handle it
I'd wait till an official statement. @celest mauve
yeah i just finished a model so i dont want it took haha
@celest mauve 60k mmd import, so includes all of the 'mmd trash' that isn't required within VRChat
Is there any way to add a world to a favorites ?
mmd trash?
Someone posted a similar example to the canny recently: https://justinbintz.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/09_1_JBintz_Pic01-Rework.jpg
~9k tris
When detail is put into textures, models can look amazing without having high polycount
The issue is more that MMD makers have no reason to do so
if you alt+h at the beginning of an import and hide the skeleton and main model itself
I wonder if some of the people complaining aren't using normal maps.
oh while your here @placid umbra i have a low poly model that could be used to learn decimation and export in blender its low poly so it doesnt need alot which makes it perfect for learning blender would it be possible to pin it for people learning blender?
you can see things like semi transparent tubes/sphere/cubes
thats the mmd trash
isn't required for a base level import
baking normal maps is hard work and people want a one click solution :B
Its very difficult as a beginner to get a good normal map bake
normally strips out 4-6k poly alone
@celest mauve I don't manage pins, but you're welcome to make a guide video about it
I'm just happy most of the models I use have them.
Is the server sperate base on region ? Or something
I think it's just one server. This is a small operation.

@celest mauve just finding an example of the mmd trash
Are servers working or are they down rn
If you use Cats Blender Plugin and change your import settings, you can remove a lot of that stuff automatically
Could anyone verify my friends so they can send messages here?
They really need to ask a question
@alpine flame yes
They verified their phone
Working?
both
Um
@placid umbra that update is fairly recent towards auto-cleaning?
That's one example of import/export settings
If you import without Physics/Display selected, you don't even have to delete rigid bodies and all that
Saves time
How's everyone doing?
Killing time until my inevitable death. Which the purpose of is dwarfed by the inescapable heat death of the Universe and the ultimate destruction of all matter.
Other then that not bad.
I think you can upload models to Shapeways and order them 3D printed in various metals
How long until someone makes a solid gold knuckles trophy
probably already is one, they just didn't post it
also if you do that, 3d printing has rules like 'get rid of those non manifold bits'
aka shit that can't exist irl
@placid umbra don't tempt people, please
Their money, not mine :P
some donut on this game will do it >_<
honestly i'll probably see those on etsy or ebay at some point, at least little metal ones
considering bitcoin has uh, those dumbass coins out
so whats up with the latest annoucement?
The other Cryptocurrencies on the rise are causing a drought in the market of GPU's and I cant find one for less then $1000... Almost 100% mark up.
in the end you won't be able to be a nerd if you're not in on cryptocurrencies 😢
quietly puts nerd badge away
It will collapse eventually once someone figures out how to breach their security and they will become Worthless* overnight.
Dude you're not a nerd because you're not mining
oh I like to be a nerd but I also like gpus being affordable 😄
especially not rising in price over something as dumb as bitcoin ugh
still looking for someone to helpout with making a Peter Griffin Avi. If anyone has someone that could help out
i'm already in on cryptocurrencies
ADA made me 5k
lol
there's a whole cardano ada discord.
You are a terrible person.
i was kinda mad that people are buying gpus like nuts, like the best buy here has cleaned out shelves. 😐
@shell nest They thought poly count made frame drops originally, but that's not really the case.
so if my gfx card craps out for normal gaming im gonna have to wait...
just cause some dorks wanna get a lambo
even on newegg some shit is sold out
People doing what you are doing are the reason they are gone.
you like to have faith in humanity but before you know it vrchat is full of knuckles and copycats and gpus cost more than a house because of dumbshit monopoly money
Minners assualt the foundation of highend gamming.
and also the environment, technically
not just technically 😛
That's already on fire.
yea all these weirdos in florida are mining because it's way cheaper there on electricity than here in cali
I was complaining about that 10 years ago when we could still do something about it. Now we are all going to die and I just want to do it in VR.
it really sucks cause i know theyre gonna do it wrong, for one
getting myself some cereal, hopefully the cryptocurrency offtopic chat will have moved on soon
hahah high five @jagged laurel
I feel like the venn diagram between people who steal avatars and people who buy bitcoin is preeeetty overlapping
If I want to get a GPU, I'm gonna have to buy an overpriced 1060 or an RX 580. Which are basically garbage.
idk i wouldn't put it that way
my friend in boston told me there were people selling arcade coins saying it was btc and those people were eating it up
i doubt anybody that dumb could actually figure out how to steal ava
lol
anyone know why i can't enter my own world? i just get sent back to the hub:/ First time testing it out btw
i know some people finally figured out you buy btc or eth or ltc on Coinbase and it's literally a click of a button now
hey i got a question for u guys. I'm trying to make a model, and it says its too big on one axis etc etc. so I turn the scale down and its a suuuper small model now
how do i make it to where its the right size but its a normal sized model?
at that point its too big
gotta play around with it
@trim tree I'm having a similar issue, it seems to be the servers, as it worked fine yesterday
so i make it .0009
gotta eyeball it. set the viewpoint ball to a normal height and go in smallllll increments
for example
then go .09
no
and so forth
go into the main model settings and change the scale before you bring it into the 3d
after you do that then put it into the 3d view
@undone delta ahh, as i thought then, had some problems earlier as well:) thank you
I'm hearing from a lot of VRchat discord groups that there's some avatar stealing or hacking or something going around today, and to not get on VRchat until its resolved?
check announcements
i heard they can't actually steal it though, they just temporary take it and it disappears
so i didn't really care
it's just when you're both online
they use your nameplate as well
no, but they can also change their name to yours, troll and get you banned
ya theyre working on it
Well, if anyone gets banned by someone impersonating them, then I'm sure they could appeal it somehow and explain probably
At least I'd hope so
i mean, the hackers could do just that unless there was a way to check logs
anyone having issues logging in?
even private worlds are unsafe because of the glitch
what glitch?
Best and most obvious way is to get on voice with a mod, since no one can copy your voice... that's proof that the person who was trolling wasn't you.
wait whts going on. Wasn't keeping up with latest news
think Aev is here from the mod team?
@vocal shard moderation@vrchat.com is a good way to contact the VRChat mod team
Well, they can change their name to appear as yours, but wouldn't their in game ID show it wasn't really you, if the moderators were looking into the reports?
Display name would be seperate from ID i'd assume
none of us know whether its a display name dupe, or whether its actually pulling your ID though
Hm true
That'll summon someone to the world you're in, if a mod is available
#moderation-reports also exists
For after-the-fact reports
I guess I'll just avoid VRchat for a bit, I really don't wanna risk the whole name stealing stuff
Hoping they find a solution soon
what do you do if it says invalid credentials
Yeah. Cant you click someone and one of the options is "report"?
I havent played too much, but I thought that was how you do it
what do you do if it says invalid credentials
invalid credentials probably means that you are logging in with the wrong username or password
Idk I had invalid credentials earlier
I also recall someone saying that there were issues with the login server right now?
but i used the same cred to login this morning
The report button in your menu can be used, yes
wth i know this login is right
Ive not been able to login for hours =*(
Yes, i heard there were login errors earlier
@magic lark i had the same issues. I still do have the same issues but i reset it but now its giving me bad gateway
Whatd you reset
I could login just fine
my password
Send output log with mod. Report
see i just did
are you still getting invalid?
yeah
weird let me try again
i want to watch the improv show but i can’t get there with the dying servers :c
@magic lark i still had a bad gateway error popup but was able to get in my 2nd try
is anyone able to get in the right improv map?
i can’t:/
im just gonna make a new account :/
too spooked to play rn
it hardly works even if you do, lmao
Sometimes, I think that this game's in early access.
hello
i've been trying to join the improv show for the last 15 minutes
yes i realize that it’s early access but things keep breaking so suddenly
the servers worked earlie from what i could tell
No, no--these issues are egregious.
isnt this game in alpha
I'm just being a proverbial dick.
so, venting for no reason, got it :D
It's necessary.
can i get a tl;dr for the hacking thing tho
I'd just google doc it
So afaik it's best not to play VRChat for a few weeks while this all calms down?
There are tons playing, and I personally would like to test out some avatars but tbph I'm just going to wait till they come out with some more info. But I'm not especially anxious to get on either, so up to you imo @crystal epoch
@crystal epoch Personally I'm going to avoid getting on for a while. I don't want to risk it
@warm turtle Many private rooms are not private during this bug for some reason
That's literally what I do most of the timd
Oh yeah...
Well I have my own world anyway
That isn't even public
also people have started to upload some stolen avatars onto avatar pedistals
I'm probably just not gonna get on, my avatar isn't the most custom thing... But I worked for quite a bit of time on it, and yeah.
making it so everyone could use them
@smoky gulch Once this all gets sorted out, I assume mods will probably remove those
i couldn't upload my avatar from unity anyone know why ?
What was the error you received, Rez?
I read somewhere earlier that you can upload a box or something with the same ID as the stolen avi and replace it on the server, then delete it in the content manager, then just upload again
I couldn't tell you the exact process though
it was something about unable to create signature im gonna try uploading again now
ok now it went through
@odd iron That makes sense, it would probably override the stolen avatar id with something useless
so what are risks if i go to vr chat now ?
@odd iron Unless they find a way to save the avatar to their computer and upload it under their own id, who knows
UGGGGH
@undone delta Which they totally could I'm sure
is the improv show even happening?
also did anyone have water proof evidence something fishy is going on ?
fix these servers this 'breaking' daily is getting old
@indigo yacht Currently there is an avatar theft issue, as well as impersonation and name theft issue, and private rooms aren't working sometimes
@indigo yacht The risks are getting your custom avatar stolen and possibly downloaded onto another persons account/computer, being impersonated, getting blocked by lots of randoms, and/or getting banned.
I'm just going to use this time to work on avatars and not get on to test them for a day or so. Not worth the risks imo
what if i had no friends to begin with and my avatars are so decimated it would be weird if anyone would wanna steal really horribly decimated custom avatars ;D
@indigo yacht They could still potentially use your name and get you banned, but if you aren't too worried about it you could go ahead, since technically you could always make a new account if you're banned
i have alt account tho but is it even possible for mods to ban me if im not doing anyhting else than playing game and someone says racist stuff in my name ?
Can anyone help me? What are good voice changers people use on vrchat.
@cinder ibex your own voice
@meager heron Based on the background it looks that (don't remember name exactly) "Anime avatars" room. The one with the mirror that only shows when you walk close and the avatars to the right. Not 100% sure though
No a voice changer program
haitachi i think?
@undone delta yep you are 100% right
I've heard people use Garage Band and use a virtual cable to link it to the microphone option
Ill look it up. Thank you
Is anyone else having trouble logging in cause I can’t log in
Hey, there's someone who I need to report that's banned from numerous other communities like Second Life / Furaffinity / Inkbunny / Deviantart that is now latching onto VRChat to abuse people. They've got a history of doing this the past almost 7+ years. Who/Where do I report this?
im about to try to go on
@vital urchin Yes it is a known issue
Keeps saying invalid credentials
how do you make chairs invisible in unity?
that case seems kinda special though
@amber quiver you know which room?
i would talk to a mod about it
@brave furnace who dis?
As a furry, this thing is on a need to know basis (As in I need to know, so i can watch out)
@azure ridge You would just turn off the Mesh Renderer component, or assign it an invisible shader (like skybox with no textures)
Omg I can’t believe this is happening
i dont want anyone to get that thanatos model im using
@meager heron it did end with anime avatars, look through popular worlds section, also search it up with the game search bar
out of respect for the person who made it for mmd
@vocal shard Go into the mesh renderer option (on the components sidebar) after clicking on the chair's mesh and uncheck the mesh entirely
@meager heron right now im not risking to go on vrchat rn so i cant get specific name
visited vrchat and new hub was empty and my new model was broken so no worries anyone would steal it unless they want redragdool which you get either way if your model is broken
Hmm.
Anyone want an avatar with a working gun animation?
I didn't make the models, but made the animation.
Applicable to vr headsets only.
@queen ivy Thanatos? Persona?
yes
im the only one in game who has that model right now i think
i have the persona 3 thanatos that someone made in mmd
Is VR_Chat sitll unsafe to log into orrr?
unsafe
very
yes
Is it just risk of my avatar being stolen>
if i found a way to hook up my ps4 into my pc i might have tried ripping it
Names are being taken and impersonated, risking bans
Don't log in.
@warped dew Erk Gloom
Ok
Guys chill omg
Least till official announcement.
Wait is that public or are private rooms ok?
Just play the game, it's not lke there's radation outside and you walk outside without a suit
theres a glitch with private rooms
that they arent really private
or was that fixed?
I mean if you get banned with those people around, then why would you?
It's not paranoia.
@rough flax We just don't want to risk our accounts being banned dude.
Mentioned even by the devs.
You're not going to be banned.
what are the chances of it happening within a 1 minute window of logging in then going to a friends only world
Hi, all. We're aware of a small set of users that are using tools to take avatars and wear them (as if they used an avatar pedestal) as well as modify their nameplates to potentially impersonate others. We are actively working on this issue and hope to have a resolution soon. As a reminder, modifying the client in any way is a lifetime ban offense, and a moderator will not hesitate to ban on report.
Additionally, please be aware that despite best efforts at security, it is often possible to rip a model from any game using software tools. If you upload content to VRChat, it is possible for a malicious user to rip this content from VRChat and reupload it as their own. Keep this in mind when uploading content to the app.
Thank you!
They're not going to ban the average person.
- Tupper
wtf is this
they can and will
They have was of actually knowing it was you or a fake
@rough flax They are if the person uses your name to do anything against VRchat rules
So do I report me not being able to log in on the link in #moderation-reports
Currently we aren't sure if they only take your display name, or temporarily use your ID, so that isn't for sure, @rough flax
I
i was just browsing through worlds, went onto one and a world popped up that was friends+ only, i was able to join even tho i knew no one in that room, the drop portal button was not clickable tho
was in my other discord and was told that the cuck who wrote the script for the hacks or whatever left his name in it
I think the update messed up my game cause I had that too
oh so even that part of the game is broken then
that sucks
l like to see someone try to use my name. The mods know me and that I don't do bad things.
well fantastic then.
hey quick question
You're one of 20k people.
i put a space in my username
Do you think the reason I can’t log in is cause someone is using my name
Like they'll remember you.
and i can't log in using it
@rough flax Go ahead, it's your own choice to play or not, I'll still refrain from playing until it is resolved, but you're allowed to play if you wish
Plus I have VR. I doubt the person using it would have vr anyways since the client uses key bings
how do you get in with a space in your username
@vital urchin I don't think that's it, since I believe the login issues have been happening a bit longer than the avatar/name issues
i accidentally put in a space in mine and I can't log in.
Nobody's stopping you, go on ahead.
Yeah but this is the first time I ever had a log in problem
how do you log in with a space in your username? Like, I've tried putting it in with the space, but it doesn't seem to be working
@coral halo check your pm's
and I was planning on meeting up with friends 😦 guess I can’t play VRchat now
Same
So how safe is it to get on right now?
not very
i ended up logging off cause everyone made me scared
are the servers down lmao
imo, not too safe, but that's to your own personal judgement, @solid pivot
I logged off because almost every instance I joined had at least one hacker, god help you if there's two
yeah i just wanted to make some friends on there 😦
the teleportation battle is real
I mean it's been a thing for a while and I haven't seen stuff happen yet so...
I would consider you unlucky
it's kind of funny to experience
not when you're trying to play normally though
i havent been on vrchat in forever
What exactly are the hackers doing besides copying people?
teleporting people
anyone knows if the "hackers" were able to get their hands on other players avatars?
usually to one spot repeatedly so you cant leave
Oh gotcha. yea that could be frustrating
@ripe schooner not only that, but also name impersonation
and saying inapropriate things that can get you banned.
that can lead to potentially getting banned for not even doing anything
so is there a way to find people who are using hacked clients?
I've heard about impersonation. It happened to me actually
I worried if they would be able to download the avatar somehow
A purple said earlier that anyone getting impersonated would have no threat of being banned.
I forgot who said it, though.
I may take the chance because I'm not really that popular so I don't feel like I will be targeted. So I'll go in just to try my new models I ported
when you are running around as palpatine and making your voice sound like his, you get alot of attention
so im not playing for a while
@elder harbor How do you know they would have no threat of being banned?
Because a mod said so. I'm sure they'd try and figure things out considering it's impersonation.
what do we really know about this? not much, and that makes it so dangerous
true, there's no proof either side, but I'd like to be safe rather than sorry
exactly
The amount of hacking is crazy right now lol, just happened to me in game
i have really rare models also on my account, so i dont want those getting into the circulation
i dont have anything on my account
Mhm, same. I worked pretty hard on custom models with animations, so I'd rather not
just as advice, we arent telling you what to do
You don't have to worry about losing anything if you have nothing to lose.
I guess I'll just wait til the situation dies down a bit
boy oh boy I love AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIDS
i went through hell and back to find these models on nico nico
wait, what's happening?
i dont want those getting out there
i just tried to get on and everything was great but then it was like "oh this user is not found"
I mean it would suck if the model I spent 8 hours on with custom animation was used by someone with a script.
@rotund hornet Check announcements
can we get a tldr copypasta plz
But it's whatever because they can't keep it.
blep
i heard they are putting avatars on pedastals
Post outputlog if think hacker with moderation report
I hope you paid your blep tax.
hows it going guys?
They leave info outputlog
So is VRChat inhabitable at the moment?
I've been hearing left and right of all these things occuring.
not really
no, but advised not to
I see I see.
everyone's freaking over hackers taking avatars and impersonating others @celest mauve
Its just abit crazy at the moment
I'll stray from it then.
check the announcements tab
we are quite the worried crowd
Bored, worried crowd
I feel it's youtube popularity was more of a curse than a blessing.
lonely crowd :(
... what if this could be used to upload models stolen from others
uhhh machine bronke
fucking hell
:c
i need to nap :c
yeah i've been on the last like 8 hours haha finished like 3 avatars in that time. Ragin though i got 50-60% thorugh a 4th avatar then realised i cant edit a atlas texture to be a red and black scheme after i went and got demon eye assets and textures
Oh well, time to distract myself for a few hours, then maybe come back later nad see how things are going
yeah
are the hackers still at large?
yhup
yep
theres a shit ton of griefers too
Just wondering since VRChat is a free game, How do devs make money to sustain the servers and whatnot?
that worries me
right now they have investors
HTC has invested 4-5 mill into them as of Sept 2017.
oh ok
why don't VRChat devs just strike down videos that promote the hacking client?
they kno whats up
I was just wondering with the thousands of people that play on these servers ya know?
love htc the reason i went for a vive 😃
they literally have direct downloads (I assume) to the pack and they are like "Yeah use it but it's not my fault if you get banned haha" while ruining people's actual creative livelihood
^
:c
yea
of course
wtf
jokes on them, my models are shit
IS there a mod I can speak to? there is something going on in game that I am not sure I should report
yep, not gonna link since that's some bullshit and I don't condone that
currently?
thank you
this hacking situation reminds me
@zealous crystal What's up?
there was a person on an island server who was changing into other people's avatars at will
Can ANY mod answer if there is going to be open mod positions in VRChat?
So I'm curious, does anyone know the name for the like...standing-in-a-portal effect a couple people use
This game is getting overwhelmed
That is one of the hacks @rotund hornet
their name was something like CopyCat
We're Discord mods. I'd hit up hello@vrchat.com for questions like that.
how many vrchat mods are there?
I've run into a guy who randomly kicked people from the game cause we were just having a conversation to ourselves about random stuff
Was like what
and there's a video where the same guy unbans himelf...
ip ban machine broke
@rotund hornet can you give us a link?
wait let me check ze rules.
not condoning hacks
continues to talk about them and basically directs people to them
come on fam
yeah, I'll do that
Rather than discuss it here where people might want to abuse them
very true
afaik there's not a single video promoting hacks out there
why cant i post pictures ont the discord
google w/ adv filters does jack shit
no in the avatar channel
nice
you cant post pics in random anymore
Can anyone help in #avatar-rigging ?
why?
not even funny
what's the point?
I just happened to join a PUG bar with the same server number as my discord number o.o
crazy coincidence
world number*
why the fuck
do i keep getting invalid credentials
I LITERLALY JUST GOT IN GAME FOR LIKE 10 minutes
the fuck is this
in what? @coral halo
in vrchat while trying to login lmao
have you changed your password recently?
damn.
maybe caps lock or something
it's been off
oh
@VRChat_Status tweeted this at January 14, 2018 at 11:06AM: http://twitter.com/VRChat_Status/status/952618057167523840
they've been trying to fix lockouts and forced password resets
maybe that happened to you?
so my home world is set to the void...
but the void is down now, I wonder what will happen
uh oh lol
I'm in the void o.o
u ill end in the void
either it's back up, or I h4x0r3d
l33t hax0r
it's really laggy tho
Im giving up on playing VRchat rn
why?
VRChat is fun
hacker
I already knew 486
all this invalid credentials bs makes me feel more useless than I am
Aww
I've found the person who created the hacking client
gonna report them to the mods once again
who
gotta love script kiddies XDDDDDD
tell him to stop hacking and start wacking
Harekuin#5976
@vocal shard if it's hacker ffs report him take screenshots and video all
yeah, record them
I want too see
I want to see
Hopefully they aren't using someone else's name, might make it innacurate
people are getting banned for using the scripts
Watch they be using my name and I quit
It doesn't give you the avatar
true but if hacker is doing out of ordinary what normal users can't do it's better let mods handle this with evidence
its mostly me inside other models
I want to know who to roast on my grill
and ur sure this is the right guy
What do i have to download to see other models?
not someone pretending to be someone else
Doesn't matter
but how are u sure this is the right guy
and not him pretending to be someone else
and you don't just have the wrong name entirely
Knuckles now actually have a use. Spit on the hackers
who tf is goy
I drink soymilk but I am a pickle
whats going on now?
xD
...
I just wanted to play vrchat but invalid credentials was like ‘hahaha not today bitch’
sobsob
It's definitely unfortunate for people who are trying to create content.
use a steam account in the mean time?
Yeah but then server issues roll through and that's a whole different beast.
What happened to people respecting the ‘your in my menu please get out’ had this one guy just kept waving his hands all in my face before the game crashed on me
some times i wish these hackers and hacking squads could get caught and throw into jail for rest of their life with no internet no pc no food except maybe 1 per week then they would know my suffering on this case also they make so much damage for their '' lolz ''
some people like to think they are funny
@vocal shard Some also do it for control
I wish security wasn't literally non-existant. Everyone can find that sheet and create throwaway account.
unless if they're like giant then they shouldnt clip into your menus
i was refering to the people standing in your menu on purpose
To lazy to do that plus I wouldn’t know when people give me boops
or atleast eye from eye teeth from teeth when hacker get's caugh have his / her irl id bank account and all shit made public for all since they like to steal and play with other people identities
Yeah that's totally fair
damb
traps are not gay
Offense*
atleast then they would consider twice or more about doing this stupid identity thiefing at vr chat and online overall
Dude we just don’t like hackers stealing avatars or names
Aren't you the entitled one? Justifying stealing peoples models?
those whomst steal my robux shall get dragged by horses
i don't like hackers in general at all
o.o
Guys
?
Why my microphonw doesnt work on vrchat
Make sure you have the correct microphone set in your settings menu
is your mic connected ?
Stop being entitled
My micro is an internal microphone of laptop
I was told that I could get my hands on the unity dynamic bones stuff from someone in the discord?
I can use it in skype and all game, but on vrchat is mute
@vocal shard tfw i leave my comp open on a vrchat server then go to sleep and i awake and the serv is still active
@night cave no you dont, its free if you dont wanna pay for it
We should play together
Yeah it's totally free on the unity store
Meanwhile with me “Invalid Credentials”
Anime tits and lolis attract players
ay i just downloaded someone explain why I cant play
I got anime tidies I attract all the fuckboys
Because everything broke
Ah I knew it
But what if you can’t talk and is desktop scrub
If you can pet lolis or grab boobs youre okay
If you cant talk nor got a vr
Then what the hell are you doing
i mean you can stay in the presentation room and text that way i suppose
but my model has jiggle tits so I’m good right
i wanna play but not really able to chat til later tonight rip
What if I want to be Astolfo
so i'd just be creeping around haha
Get a loli skin
i want to play but “Invalid Credentials”
You’ll be fine
I only have th e basic unity chan avatar atm
havent found any avatars
that are girls lol
@surreal mica i have seen 2 different astolfo models 1 is from trap world tcam if i remebr right and second one is from zero avatar world
lol, I have my own model. I was just joking about Lolis and Traps
ok my bad
I have three avatars
Astolfo is mine 😛
i have 4 but 2 of them are broken atm i guess servers don't like them
I have no idea how to make an avatar too so i kinda gave up on that option
Well, U-511 was going to be my main but Astolfo is too cute and there is literally someone here named U-511
Rip
Welp I think ima pass out now and I thing the servers are broke only few people can get in
rip
is this the end of vr ?
Yes
I was playing in the penthouse and then a loli (an actual girl if we trely on their voicr) kept going under my skirt
there was a knuckles with an emote where he's strapped to a rocket
and it just flies up into space
haha
I cant type
My current model is his combat armor, I will look for more.
@amber parcel u serious ?
Virtual Reality Chat
AHEM
Why have girls when you can have guys that look like girls
true, but it requires an internet connection to play
its a whole other workd
ahhh, one of the rules of old....
What 4xE said
i guess im not in this world then
xD true, loli traps
took me a while to find an actual girl like me who wasnt a trap
I prefer my woman like I like my coffee
You don't, that's what's great about it
then lost her cause the servers played up
@night slate i am girl
Girl you so ficc
._.
What I love doing is trapping straight boys into thinking im a girl then furiously sucking their dick
:^)
i have to prove im a girl
Damn
k
@sharp echo how do you prove youre girl ?
Ikr
guys usually ask for proof, aka nudes x.x
USUALLY, not always
no triggeredness please
LOL
No offense but usually people with their waifus as their pfps are considered as weaboos which are most commonly guys
proving yourself to people who don't actually mean anything in the grand scheme of things
xD
🤔
True
Vrchat SDK woont let me upload my map
void club is down?
Holy fuck the thirst on this chat. Calm down
Servers are kind of borked @vocal shard
i know everyone is an anime girl on br chat
LISTEN
It's more to keep people guessing.
this aint true thirst fam
caring if people know your gender
so chill your farm
br chat
lol
@sharp echo 😦 for how long?
you are real @brave furnace
does that consist of 300 ping and terrible mics
how long what @vocal shard
🏳️🌈
are the servers gonna be broked @sharp echo
i dont know @vocal shard
I don't care if the person on the other end is a girl or a guy, what matters is not the dick in their pants but the dick in their heart
i think i was just gonna go on i dont have any saved stuff
life long lessons @surreal mica
@surreal mica that seems bad
*I don't care if the person on the other end is a girl or a guy, what matters is not the dick in their pants but the dick in my ass
@surreal mica I will forever remember that phrase wheeze
kissing girls is gay anyway
girls have cooties
You know whats gay
not traps
Two guys frenching each other
lolol
Like some wise man said in my life
Are people still having issues selecting their avatars?
i think so
‘Breakfast is better with two sausages than only one’
no fun allowed
Lame I spent like 20 hours working on my avatar and I cant even use it :&
@soft skiff i think that and servers having issues and identitety thief still going wild
we have mods for a reason
Hey, Twofist, I like your pfp. Nanachi a cute.
We have chat for a reason
Keep having that good taste.
Well I needed a break anyway my face is all fuzzy feeling from my vive
thanks
Speaking of custom avatars. I fucked up one of mine and I think it's possesed. Like, it looks perfectly normal, but I fall at a rate of about one foot per second... and I can jump while in the air.
liking miia in 2018
Basically I can fly now.
Inagine the strokes she could give
@vocal shard IM NOT SURE
like, i was trying to make it so my model didn't rotate relative to my entity so i could turn and look around and my model wouldn't jerk around with me.... but that didn't happen.
I let the demons in.
Tovi has made a Two Hearts Deal in the Devil Room using a Joker Card
why only 3 mods on discord are at vrchat and not all of them hunting down this identity thief ?
Because they have better things to do
what could that be ?
is she not amazingly QT
Living
it's over rated
Also i forgot to mention
now they would have chance to nuce knuckles mem out of game
I saw a mlp model today
yeah that is pretty spooky
wow do you want cookie for that now i saw 1 pony over 4 days ago
but have you seen a man pulling his pants off at the speed of sound?
it being pony sex simulator is not much worse then anime sex simulator
they have secondlife for that
Inb4 someone makes R34 World
Why dont people just you know go and play sex simulators?
@amber parcel inb4 someone who has not readed ToS get's banned for that ;D
@soft skiff dont be silly
WHAT THERE IS A MIRROR IN THERE I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A ROOM TO DO YOUR MAKE UP IN!
Yeah, it would be allowed as long as it is private I think
caps sorry
I think it is a fair policy
R34 world is a world made by the devs to bait people to join it and get banned for nudity and pornographic content
r34 is still porn related so it get's banned 100% sooner than faster
@sharp hornet then what does ToS serve ?
You go through an approval process for worlds.
No Fun Allowed
I'm not sure how private worlds work.
Yeah so can you upload worlds for just yourself and people you invite to?
Not sure.
i doubt
You should ask someone in the worlds channel.
Yea, by default worlds are invite only, you can still invite friends into those worlds
You have to submit the form for going public
Is there a limit to avatars allowed to be uploaded?
No
Hmmmmmmm
But there is a limit the server can work or not
waiting till some mod invades r34 world and band everyone from there ;D
is the thing in announcements fixed yet?
That's just due to server issues. I'm up to 70-some I think and if the servers are bad, the list won't always load in full
Earlier it wouldn't let me upload a Yoda avatar. I deleted some avatars, then it let me. It said success but it wasn't showing up.
But most of the time it's fine
I have trust issues on this game now, some guy came up to me and asked if I wanted to see a magic trick
Fuck that
I just ran because assumed he was a hacker
So I jumped off and went to a private world
It wouldn't make much sense with avatar worlds, since avatars you put in worlds show up in your own list
I didn't want to risk anyone taking my custom avatar
i also heard noises last morning someone was calling me at void club then some robot guy showed me how to wall glitch so i can meet them but when i tried to glitch through wall they left so i assume playing too much this get's me paranoid or something
Fair, I feel the same about my avatars
@brave dragon private worlds are not safe atm either
@wintry pollen I'm having the same issue, my uploaded avatar isn't in my list despite saying it was successful. It must be a server issue
Everyone's go default. Public area
Tbh I don’t feel the same about my avatars, since all my models are taken from Deviantart, like Punished said
o that sucks then
Anyone having issues uploading avatars right now?\
@dark hawk Yup
I re-texture, animate, and put particle systems on a lot of my custom avatars. I'd still be sad to see them go even if they originally came from deviant art 😦
Not even uploading for me, despite detaching id, going through whole upload process multiple times 
Hacker dont want steal default unity chan
@dark hawk i uploaded 2 avatars they appear in-game with picture but when i choose either one of them and press change they don't load so it's only red man
Yeah. I didn't make the original models, but I've put days of work into some of them
Never make models but made animation for some.
I got you, I tried uploading one last night and when I tried switching to it in-game, it was a completly different model that I didnt even upload or own
I DL mmd and heavily edit them to fit my preference so that it's somewhat unique
I don't make custom models, but I have made a lot of custom animations, facial expressions, shaders, etc
I realize that, but it was just funny that I tried to upload meme-chan and when I tried to switch to it, it was Link from the Wind Waker 
Toon Link apparently lol
You know what I should do
I’ll just play Mario Odyssey until the hacker problem passes away
im not gonna log in until its fixed
call me paranoid tho i guess
Yea, I still won't log on until the all clear 😦 there's still the impersonation issue
So is the problem that they steal them and then own them in their list? Or is it like them getting one off of a pedastal in a world and it is only temp?
@remote hinge Totally reasonable, not paranoid in my opinion. You just want to be safe, it's understandable, I'm doing the same
Even if the ban thing isn't happening, which I'm not too sure of, there's still the avatar problem, so I'll wait it out
True, but I prefer to use my own, it's largely the reason I play VRchat in general, the cusomization. Plus I can always do other things while I wait

NekoNatsuki - Today at 8:01 PM
So is the problem that they steal them and then own them in their list? Or is it like them getting one off of a pedastal in a world and it is only temp?
^^^^^^ This is my concern too. I thought they just take as in they can look like you. Didn't know they could make it so you completely lose your avatar. Anyone able to confirm NekoNatsuki's question?
^
How do people do music spam on their mics?
Then I don't care honestly lol
The only thing I know, from multiple people agreeing at least, is that they can turn it into a pedestal using the id they took
Turn up music really loud and put your mic next to it
theres a few ways, id use voicemeeter @sharp hornet
Do they use something like slam?
@dark hawk copy pasted from tupper
Hi, all. We're aware of a small set of users that are using tools to take avatars and wear them (as if they used an avatar pedestal) as well as modify their nameplates to potentially impersonate others. We are actively working on this issue and hope to have a resolution soon. As a reminder, modifying the client in any way is a lifetime ban offense, and a moderator will not hesitate to ban on report.
Additionally, please be aware that despite best efforts at security, it is often possible to rip a model from any game using software tools. If you upload content to VRChat, it is possible for a malicious user to rip this content from VRChat and reupload it as their own. Keep this in mind when uploading content to the app.
@sharp hornet I don't spam music, but I do use music when I use my DJ model, and I use voicemeeter banana, with my phone plugged in to play playlists
If someone thinks that my avatar is good enough to steal and impersonate me, then by all means do it, I talk in-game so I am pretty sure my friends would know it's not me haha
im so happy banana is free now
What are the best sites for downloadable Avatars?
Yea, the "re upload as your own" part is what concerns me. I wouldn't care about a pedestal-like effect
back when i originally used VM it was like 15 bucks or something
Voicemeeter? I used to use that for shadowplay. But then it stopped working.
@sharp hornet Voicemeeter Banana specifically, it has more options
It doesn't sound to be too big of an issue imo then. I was reading a bunch of comments and it sounded like you lost your avatar forever to some hacker.
hello im new here
@twin topaz I doubt that could happen, since the avatar id is attached to your account id or whatever. The only way they could do that is if they found a way to reassign the account the avatar is connected to
which is deeper than what they seem to be doing
I show you de whey
hope this isnt the wrong place to ask, but does anyone know the basic process of how to add in a selfie cam to an avatar override?
aight ty
sorry for puttin it here
@remote hinge Hm.. I've been trying to get that to work for a while, I'm not sure. I'd normally say use vrc_mirror scripts, but they don't work for me. Avatars channel might know, yea
the avatar stealing thing?
interestingly enough, my gpu seems to be my bottleneck even though everyone says the game is CPU intensive
my fx 9590 is barely hitting 20% but my R9 290x is at 100%
i havent dug too deep into the code but im guessing blueprints are avatars, and blueprints are cached
I'm in a lobby with a guy having a fucking hitler avatar
not enough controlled testing
What can i do ?
What's wrong with Hitler?
Lol.
hey i just found a Stripper playermodel with the knuckles face on it
@fringe glade screenshot then report https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScy051RCaR0BRe8JPiWpfAgYlAf-VyunKVTm14Q4YMZPY3jDQ/viewform?usp=sf_link
Done, thx.
id like to drink with hitler at the pug at least once in my vrc lifetime
I'd settle for drinking with Hitler-chan
im german is that good enough
Wonderful weather today
theres no voice chatrooms?
I heard the hackers are removing users who use knuckles?
Satan, hitler, tide pod chan, and for some reason he man. Sounds like a weird pug scene but a welcome one
LuL
They re banning them lmao
Lul
The way now is up and out I guess
theres like 400k they cant
no hes just pulling shit out of his ass
no hes pulling it from his black trench coat
400k
Actually knowing haker mans the effort it takes to remove a guy who puts on a knuckles sounds like a lot of HOOPLA
can't the hackers just change the knuckles playermodel insteade?
You think so but
But hack in this game though xD
Is it safe to go back in?
yes
Technically speaking it's never safe but it depends on your definition
With the hacker situation
Oh that yea
We sword art online now
i dont get why hack such a new game
new
Because people don't like fun.
This game has been in early access for a LONG time
hold on let me sead the knuckles player model to second life to cause more wars
spread*
The people from Uganda got angry.😂
who cares if someone steals your model if they'll eventually be banned for doing it?
They will copy your name
