There should be a button you can click on to 'listen to self' as well if your curious
@lyric nebula it cool mane, it happens dog anyway that's that life tho
Yeah, still unfair though and I hope most people act civil 😃
I have an accent and I'm just waiting for people to use it against me 😛
You and your filthy sexy accent
the only reason they don't is probably because they can't identify it
ha I wish mine was one of the sexy ones
but alas.
I couldn't find gain, but there was some nebulous boost property...
gross, different sounding people :p
lol
On the game once people kept calling a new Zealander Australian, and I responded with “no he’s a kiwi” I really hope that isn’t a slur
I listened to myself...
Should I be worried about this guy that appears to be laying on the floor for a while now?
I sounded fine.
Ono
Dr. Fraggington maybe? Either a vr person who left their hmd on the floor, someone who fell asleep in full body...
yeah what drazul said
I laid down in full body the other day and it was veeeery comfortable
I see that all the time
and I pretended to have died too
almost fell asleep
you meanie
ah no, I mean it was in the presentation room
and I laid down with my arms crossed but not before I drew a gravestone over myself 😛
so they kinda knew it was fake. I'm pretty sure.
they drew grass and flowers on it
then I pretended to rise from my grave and a loli shot me in the face
I'd get back up and stare them down into the soul
I hope you had an the undertaker avatar
I was playing as "garbage alien", one of a new series of avatars I make that looks like area 52 remains
avatars so ugly they will never get stolen
Are you scared? HE'S HERE
not even a mother could love that one
Have you seen the worst avatars world? It's great
the one I'm uploading now is one I drew in tiltbrush, it's just a drawing of a guy, only the lines are in 3d? it's gonna be fun to take that one to the presentation room
I have not! sounds like I should go there. is it called that?
yup I have three low fi avatars now: one made in oculus medium, one made in gravity sketch and one made in tiltbrush
absolute lowest effort
neither of those things really make it as professional tools although the gravity sketch one is sorta neat
A friend put on an asgore avatar and it was super ugly and he wore it for an hour before looking in the mirror
LUL
He looks like he's moving though. Is that just the idle animation playing on top of the tracking?
“I can’t believe you didn’t tell me how creepy it was” “I thought you knew”
i can imagine the seinfeld theme playing too
I've had enough scares from last VRC halloween
anyone else having a problem with logging in rn?
It says I'm banned for 24 hours but I haven't been on in days
Apparently it's still shitty. People are muting me...
Lower it more
There was a incredibly creepy map, no jumpscares. Loved it.
I always have existential dread :^)
whispers in awe devil's voice...
Make sure your have the right headset selected
@lilac swan will I make a halloween map this year? PROBABLY.
It's, uh, not a headset...
Er mic
It's literally the laptop's onboard mic.
😰
Oh
no jumpscares. just existentialism
Perhaps a headset would help, but where to get one for a song?
quotes from philosophers...
For a song?
As in, for cheap.
ive never heard that phrase, i might start using it
What's your budget
can someone help me? its an issue with shaders
My halloween submission will be a simple avatar... with 57 skinned mesh renderers, 80+ materials and literally every bone is physicalized with dynamic bones 🙀
oh lord, dont forget to have 1000+ particles all with collision and lights
Like nothing.
...Well, I have a little, but I'm stingy as fuck.
dont kill people like that
I don't have a job, if that's what you're asking.
I got into uni two years early and my parents wire me $100 per month.
N8, I need people alive to be spooked by it
...God, I'm just hoping I don't become infamous for this...
@lilac swan They will be spooked when their PCs set on fire
Maybe I should restart my computer before using VRChat again.
VRChat: Halloween takes many casualties as the fire epidemic continues
are the servers back up yet?
space engineers planets
lol
hows it look?
the best obviously
Screenshot plz
I'd love a look at it
Flat toon shader doesn't work with some and cards
So my friend can't see any models using it
🍑
Yo anyone willing to put a weapon on a model for me?
Anyone know a good spooky map?
Shadowed halls
Just search up scary
Lol, semi transparent models don’t appear in some worlds using flat toon lit
Yo anyone willing to put a weapon on a model for me?
I tried and it didn't work
I made and animation for it
Made sure to attach it to my model
Put the animation in the emotes
And nothing
vr or desktop
Vr
You sure the animation was one frame
It was attached right to both the standing and sitting stuff and ect?
@cold saddle yes thank you!
u put the override on the emote tab instead of a gesture?
wait wut
Its my first time puting weapons on a model
how do u know its not working then (*´・ω・)
It wont show in game
Saw someone have a powering up animation on his hand gestures
Thought that wasn't possible
Ohhhh
I dont know how to do anything with weapons and animations thats why i want someone to do it for me
Can you link me to any guides or videos?
this one is gud https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0l4-pH3vI4
i go back to fapping now
can someone link me to a vr headset that works with vrchat? thanks 😃
Anyone ever had an issue with vrchat when using VR where you can't change between standing and sitting modes?
@hasty wedge gl hf
Here's Rift
https://www.oculus.com/rift/
@vocal shard best bets are oculus or htc vive
so I went on a march with 2 others as JoJo characters and I freaked out when I saw a dio character @.@ he spoke in a British accent also
seamed like a cool dude regret not friending him
I bolted tf out before I could remember to tho
joannathan died today tho ;-;
You can ever Google cardboard
with vrchat? I dont think vrchat is on mobile
good luck with that
^
im not about to touch that with a 2000 ft pole
I’ve seen it done, but idk how hard it is to do
pretty easy if you have everythig installed and instructions followed
Now to see if you can use google cardboard and switch joycons
anyone else not seeing their offline friends list......?
yea i think its bugged right now
oh ok
hi
how is everyone
great
🍑
wow
I know right? It's a nice peach
🍆
lewd
my friendlist is messed me entire offline list is gone and i've noticed a lot of my friends are not listed as friends anymore
same whats going on
Maybe it's from the security
how long is a temp ban for vrchat?
There new security update has gotten a lot of innocent people randomly banned
1 month
no idea
Well since I got banned for no reason
is it really??
It said 1 month
it didnt tell me
You're banned too?
What's the reason?
no reason
What were you doing?
wasnt even online
what about if the reason is from logging in with incorrect password?
you can get a ban for that?
saying for a friend that got temp banned just now
i was uploading an avatar for her
And I still haven't gotten a response yet but, one of my friends did
so she changed the pw for me to do it
heres to hoping they fix this for any unwarrented bans 😦
If you've been banned for no reason, send an email to moderation@vrchat.com from the email you used to register your vrchat account. If it was a mistake they'll be able to sort it out.
Do be patient though.
Quick question, has anyone experienced an issue where the game runs just fine ping wise,but it takes forever to load stuff, aka worlds, avatars?
@unborn gulch That I can't give an answer to since I don't know. I don't handle any moderation outside the discord.
they most likely will take a while as they have a lot to do it sounds like
They answered one my friends as soon as she sent the email
That was very lucky
As Tupper said before, you may or may not receive a response.
FeelsAdvertMan
Where ya feeling me? 

this would look alot better....if he had one gun http://prntscr.com/ibmrj8
You think the update might be a part of my mic issues?
Advert is a spicy bot
i have such a potato computer, ive been sitting for 5 minutes now and this still won't play the animation http://prntscr.com/ibmvrm
rip servers
mehhhh
RIP announcement
VR chat down ?
F
Oh god please no
It's up but very unstable
f
🇫
Well, glad im not messing with the new avatar i put in yesterday since i can't get in, also i have one question http://prntscr.com/ibn0na HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT BELT STAY ON HIS WAIST when it isint clearly attached to anything?
🇴 🇴 🇫
can't see people. Was there an update ?
A security update
what was the custom launch option command line
for loading into your own world
i need the prefix for like friends only instance
so i can't open the build control panel for some reason
...
oh
now i feel like a dumbass
never mind ignore me i found it
Could someone direct me to an appropriate channel or something so I can elaborate on my dialemma about a "anti-hero cheater" nonchalantly stealing avatars?
No? ... I was lied to about response then by some people I thought I could trust.
Do you mean a place to report people? You can report them to either #moderation-reports or moderation@vrchat.com
Is it after every “major” update that your friend list gets deleted? Cause I only have 1 friend left out of the 10 I had
In vrchat
No idea about that but there seems to be a lot of people lately that's been complaining about why they can't see their offline friends and such.
Not sure if it’s permanent yet but
Yeah
Give it a few days and see if there’s any more news on it
I will
Well, since I'm not authorised to report it in the moderation-reports channel, it'll have to be by email. Thank you advert-chan.
You need to click the google document in #moderation-reports, the first message there.
^
Is there a way to set the VRChat cache to another partition than C? My C is rather small and I have D,E,F partitions. D and F are relatively empty.
there is a way, im not sure how to do it myself but google might be of help
I would like to know as well as I am in a similar issue. I changed where windows saves temp files but for some reason VRChat still saves to C
PLEASE BRING BACK OFFLINE PEOPLE 😦
@covert chasm Yo I recently receieved a 24 hour ban and it's been around 42 hours. Fuzzy suggested I @ you personally.
For all moderation requests, please email moderation@vrchat.com
admins/mods cannot discuss bans on Discord (or anywhere else, actually)
Gotcha
@cobalt geode @opaque hawk
mklink /d C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat G:\Games\VRChat
replace G:\ stuff
With wherever you want to put it instead
mklink 👌
but for mklink
you need to move the folder in app data first
Because you can’t link when the file already exists
So just move the first folder somewhere else
Then run mklink
and it’ll change cache from that point on
so is mklink a software
No
it’s symbolic link
Basically
Anything that goes into the first
Goes into second instead
But is still “linked” to the first
So stuff that reads things in the first location
@brazen hamlet
Can read it off the second instead
But the second is where it’s actually stored
Instead of the first
so if cut and paste my vrchat data into my d drive data cache area it will work
Go into your AppData\whatever\VRChat folder
then move this folder somewhere for now
like desktop or whatever
then open up command prompt
and run the mklink command
You don’t need the VRChat folder anymore
It was temp anyways
And from now on
All your cache stuff will be stored at the second location
Which in the example I gave
Was in G:\Games\VRChat
not sure what I am doing wrong, all I get is access is denied
Run command prompt as administrator if mklink is giving you the error
If moving the folder itself is giving you access denied
Then just give it said access
Type in your admin info or whatever
nah I’m good on that, it the command prompt part thats hard
Is anyone else having an issue where it seems like certain worlds load very, very slowly? Great Pug is going at ~5% every minute...
We need #tech-talk
Mm this seems like a different kind of issue. Hub and Gaia Night are instant. Pug usually takes me a few seconds. I’m getting fractions of a % right now and my net is fine
can i download vrchat on the site and not steam?
no.
Is there someone i can report a player for stealing avatars
not sure what I’m doing wrong, now I make the symbolic link for the folder in my c drive, nothing but syntax errors trying to type out the second location
i just got mine stolen :I
we need tech support
I don’t miss playing pc games in the dos days
servers have been pretty slow for me lately too
also @spiral venture #moderation-reports
Yeah and in Gaia Night half the people don’t load, they remain as the blue ghosts
thank you Dafirex
Obviously not a common issue. Nobody else has mentioned it
A person in my game told me that deleting the avatar and uplaoding it again with another ID will get rid of it for them
does anyone know if this is true?
nope
@spiral venture true
That is correct, but it doesn't protect you from them doing it again.
well, to be safe id replace to with something else
it;'s mmore fun that way
@spiral venture not true. You cannot delete an avatar or world. It just get's put into a state that is innaccessable for you from your menu.
That's new to me.
so they would still have the avatar?
You would need to overwrite the id with a cube or something, then the model they have would become the cube.
then upload to a new id
and delete the old one
Ah crap just deleted the avatar he stole didnt get to see the ID
rip
if you do catch someone hacking, don't forget to screenshot/take a video, and send your output log to moderation@vrchat.com
i didnt record or anything but his name was gotyourskin
another thing to note is if your in vr and dont know how to screenshot (atleast for oculus) you press the oculus or steamvr button and then hold the trigger and then it should screenshot
press and hold both the steamvr/oculus and the trigger, can't remember if its the steam button or oculus
Quick check, can you guys see me typing?
yeah
Technically no, I can see the output you type, but not you physically typing on your keyboar- o wait, one sec, now I can
Ok thanks.
im guessing there is no other way to see the ID of an avatar if i deleted it right?
did you check your pipline saver or something like that
the string is your id
I THINK
i detached it
.
showing the person copying ur model that ur annoyed by it is a bad idea u know
Thanks heikourin. Appreciated.
would only make them continue to have fun 
gotta give em the hug and kiss till they move on to the next
Yeah, some guy copied my avatar a few days ago while I was talking to my dad but seen it happening, then that person changed their avatar back to the one they came with. Is it like they can save the copied avatar to their personal list or like pedestal ones? I still don't know about that.
Essentially
They copy your avatars ID
and thats how they use your avatar
So simply change the ID of your avatar and reupload it, and they won't have your avatars ID anymore
and your avatar anymore.
So they add my avatar to their personals huh? That's what I was asking. Welp. Gotta remove it. Wasn't using it anyway, lmao.
One day I'll work on setting up a personal avatar.
DISLIKE new security update (can't see offline friends) thought i lost all my close friends 😦 revert it back and i know other people want em back also
Seems like a lot of work though
Aye, I noticed I couldnt see offline peeps anymore, but meh
Drakeos i thought the same. Was really worried.
I mean, I care more when there online anyway
although hard to count how many total friends you have now lol
yep lol
Hello
still waiting on that question
I got banned a bit ago, but i had done nothing wrong, and I dont know what exactly to do to get myself unbanned
Sorry it took me so long to type
I would e-mail hello@vrchat.net about your issue.
alright
all the offline friends on my friends list were just unfriended can someone explain to me how this happened?
hopefully that helps.. 😃
Thank you, syyleste
You're welcome, I hope you get unbanned. I'm not sure why that is happening to some people.
moderation@vrchat.com is a more suitable route
@low stag sorry about my friens man. they kicked you. we where in the middle of a game and it was already hard to play it because of the troll ppl. I'm sorry.
I cant even log in
@dry notch Welcome to the club dude
no it's not Drazul they never reply
I got banned as well
tried millions of times. Mods don't care.
same here fruit
rip log in server
All emails to moderation@vrchat.com are read. Not all of them are responded to.
They can't officially ban.
@covert chasm You guys updating security now?
having issues with login servers as well, can't log into either the VRchat site or both of my accounts
rip severs
Is it the system that is banning innocent people or just hackers taking over people's identity in VRChat?
also entire friends list too?
@warped urchin Please see #announcements
Rip can't log in
Please give it a few minutes. Servers are having a coughing fit
Oh ok
I just checked and there was an update
Sorry about that Tupper, was trying to upload a model
There are 6914 users in VRChat currently
If this doesn't rig right I swear I'll ask someone to do it for me if they can
anyone know where I could find the avatar of Ethan from H3H3?
@covert chasm Can you guy please respond to my moderation appeal. I feel nothing I send to you guys ever gets read.
can log in now try guys
@vocal shard As I stated, all emails to moderation@vrchat.com are read. Not all of them are responded to.
@shell prism ask in #avatars-2-general
for sure
@plain current if you have issues ask in #avatar-rigging
I will if the issues continue with the shoulder
And it's not letting me log into unity..
This whole week I can tell there are gonna be a lot of problems in VRChat
:O
Now to wait like forever for it to work
can't open steam.. is steam down right now?
Nope
well that's weird... T w T
Logged right into steam
can't open steam in da web too T w T
@vocal shard have you tried emailing another of the vrchat emails to say that the mods dont respond?
If you send an email to the moderation email
I think they will ignore you if you send a support ticket in their support email
what do you mean chris?
curiously enough, vrchat just died on me and I can't load into any world xD, anyone else getting the same issue?
Or shall I begin further troubleshooting
@wary arch can't load at all? or takes absolutely forever to load?
if it's the latter then same
I'll load in and then get disconnected. Gonna give it a bit before I hop back on
when will vrchat have steam workshop integration
and a favorite server list
and downloadable avatars?

On average... how many avatars do you guys have?
bout a dozen
I only have 8, which is mostly my failed creations....
like 7 but with billions of different versions
only 1-2 are successful lmao
0 cause I'm dumb and can't get it to work lol
anyone else having problems with clicking the game menu? or interacting with objects?
I had trouble interacting with the standing/ seating option. Couldn't change between the two.
i cant get anything that you interact with to respone ingame (game menu,chairs,buttons,etc)
Can't say I've had that issue. Sorry
was working fine until i went to avatar testing world where it all broke
even after restarting game everything is still broken
Yeah I'm having no issues now
Servers better work
seems the servers are up and down, random instances I have to restart the game, and I can't tell if it's steam or the game :P
Same
@VRCHAT DEVS Can you guys set it so we can see full names in game? My handle "The Real Ryan Gosling" gets cut off and it ruins the joke. Please and thank you
can anybody else log into vrcha
lmao, names are WAY on their low end of priority
Ok the stability is aggravating
I'm just passing the time
@gusty adder http://3d.nicovideo.jp/works/td30531

pepe spotted, targeting delete button
VRChat seems to be having a lot of problems?
allahuackbar
i love how i can update my world using the previous version of the SDK
Thanks guy that helped me find the cat with scoliosis!
anyone know where to find the last barrier switch in the wind waker world? For the kanna nuke
@lilac swan i found your place. it looks interesting

Hi
oh its Taxic!
cool. were you on a different discord with me?
ok. pls go to my event with me, i need someone to help manage. it's on friday and saturday
Wdym?
i try to run an event.
Of what?
50 polygon challenge. make an avatar with exactly 50 polygons. the best avatar wins
Yeah I'm not that skilled to make models
I've only downloaded models
and decimated them
that's ok. i haven't had any experience with models at all. i'm just starting an event
i need avatar makers to accept this challenge
and someone to help organize
The only thing I want is to know if I have to wait or not to be unbanned
what the hell did you do to get banned
Oof i forgot.
that a thing?
exactly
I was told from this by my friend
disgusting
And I was accused of it and banned for a month
i'd say wait it out bruh
If you have issues, email moderation@vrchat.com. This isn't the place to discuss it.
this guy named cute attack has a few nude avatars
Sorry for discussing this
I love VRChat I wouldn't want it to be ruined for me
^
if i need help can i say it here or should i go to #user-support-old ?
Yes
^^;
i used to be able to play in desktop mode fine, i got my rift today and can play oculus games, steamvr home, mcosu, etc, but when i open vrchat it says unresponsive and loads for a minute and throws me into an empty grid room, this is what it looks like on my desktop when im in vr, and also even when i close all vr programs and related things launching in desktop mode gives the same looking window, i've tried reboot, restarting steam, running as admin, starting steamvr and oculus in different orders, reinstalling vrchat, deleting cache
idk what more i can do
Oof. $1500 down the drain
Aww no that's terrible
@severe cloud I'm sorry that happened. Everything is up to date? Have you overclocked your monitors or anything?
have fun bronzie https://i.imgur.com/IK6BnTa.png
hmm...
sounds like something to do with your computer not being able to handle loading in vrchat, either that or steamvr is being a dumb
hmm
!online
There are 6651 users in VRChat currently
There are 31215 users in the VRChat Discord
@severe cloud You know you don't have to be rude because when I overclocked my monitors I couldn't open up Minecraft so it was just a theory...
You never know what happens
lol
Emotion: Happy.bat
Sooo
I pressed a button
and the mic thing dissapeared and now i cant talk
anybody got any ideas what the fuck happened lmao
Ctrl+H removes the HUD, such as the mic indicator.
Shouldnt be stopping you from talking however, maybe you're muted and can't see it?
Does anyone know how to VRChat with cardboard?
I get mildly motion sick just thinking about that
I'm poor, ok? 😦
hm?
@kindred monolith If you can find a way to emulate SteamVR on it then it might be possible
anyone else keep meeting microsoft corporation?
i keep running into him every now and then
is anyone frozen in place l
the guy who causes blue screens to start spawning around the map while playing a remix of the microsoft error
login servers down?
So
is it normal that
or like
some new update that
there's "force mute"
"warn"
yeah i cant login
Yup can't login too
can't login either
in my social menu
servers 😡
okay I put the private url into my launch options, but it keeps launching me into public worlds
whats up with that?
You typed it as?: vrchat://launch?id=
ok guys i think we should stop raging would you rather have a crap server now or a good server later
when are the servers ever good
plenty of times when i started playing about a week and half ago it was brillant
What's the way to actually walk in VRchat, both in VR and on Keyboard?
Always feels like i'm running everywhere
just less thumbstick
Less thumbstick closer to the center of the dpad on vr
and then W on keyboard, W+Shift for run
so no way to activate emotes with m/k?
Mhn... i'll try it again. It feels like it goes from nothing to full run >.<
@delicate coral You can do emotes, just not gestures.
Heya
oi
ah thx
is it possible to use an animation via an emote as a toggle? say your avatar has a weapon and you have it hidden / holstered by default and you use an animation on an emote to get it.
you prolly cant
desktop is extremely limited
even as somehow having a flashlight feature takes like two emotes for it to activate/deactivity
any 1 cant ... login? k thx
Yeah, servers are having issues. Failed to log in a few times, but now social and world tabs aren't updating
well
Social tabs have been taken offline on purpose while they rewrite some things.
They're not gone, just not showing
Now why does unity crash every time I try to make or open a project?
i just sneezed
servers are up, stuff is half broken
I think they overcooked their servers
lol, it literally is as easy as copy/paste to clone an avatar
I had no idea that would work
puff #bhd
I'm just uploading different sizes of the same avatar cause that's all I've figured out how to do
ahaha, they all uploaded with the same ID, so now I have one huge one
I suck

I look forward to the day we can rearrange the order of our avatars in VRChat instead of having to delete and reupload
Everybody know that the last avatar is alway the best one !
is someone in here whos good at unity with particles and animations who can help me with some problems i have.. ^^" hit me up please thanks alot if so. 😃 ❤
hey can someone help me with blender?
Whenever i import models like glasses or semthing to my avatar the bones disappear.
Why is that?
Maybe its hides them? Did you press alt H
I got it thx, i was clicking on fix model after importing, thats why 😛

Guys do you know how to change avatars speed and jump length ?
Better to ask that in #world-development
i think they want it for a specific avatar and not their world, which i am not sure is possible
In that case, it's not possible because the speed and jump height is stuck to the world.
when you have worlds that made your avatar a cripple lmfao
have a world with a button that enables "SUPER FAST MODE" but it actually sets your movespeed to as low as it will go and the button disappears when you press it
ITS LIKE UNBINDALL ALL OVER AGAIN
Been a while since I last looked at deviant art and all that I see now is "Don't use this model for VRChat" 
guess people were really pissed
Aye, a lot of people don't ask for permissions first so I guess that's why.
well they will take uploads down eventually
i've seen it a few times but i've also found there are a decent amount of models with very relaxed permissions. those are the ones i tend to use.
I may plead guilty of this
but for the case of MMD
how tf in some cases can you ask permission if you're gonna experience language barrier
With Uncle Google and broken language.
the one thing i dont really get is that if they are so sensitive and protective over their work..why even upload it in the first place?
They're fine with people using it on MMD, but not on anything else.
plus
its like if i spent 50 hours creating my own avatar from scratch then uploaded it as a unitypackage then got upset that people used it
they are yeah. but still. if they are so protective over the use. personally i would keep them personal. just like i do for my avatars that ive spent tons of hours working on. yeah, i'd be annoyed if i saw someone use them. so therefore i dont pass around the files like free candy
i guess they are realising that by taking the files down now

was it on the XNALara group?
As most of their descriptions says, they're fine with people using it for MMD.
What's what on the XNALara group?
a
I mean that's my go-to source for avatars
that's how I even got hold of the Foxtrot 813 dude
HUNK from Resident Evil
Agent from again, Resident Evil
Idk, never looked there. But you can check their descriptions.
I mostly looked at those that I clicked on follow before.
i think maybe they felt the MMD community was small and safe and everybody maybe kinda knew each other. and now, another use for their models exists, and not only that, it is currently insanely popular. thats i guess a good reason that they could end up in this situation
I guess so.
well yeah but
it still doesnt explain they have to blatantly put a link in there
and get pissed because somebody uses it for VRChat
Boi, I already said twice why they put download links--
yea i think it's more that it was an unanticipated use
and they're just slow ish to react to it because some of those uploads are years old
In any case, they put up the download links because they are expecting people to only use it in the program "MMD"
And, yeah. ^
would be funny if the SFM people were too chill about it
What would happen if a 200k polygon character would walk into a room? could people actually crash from it?
and to be fair MMD is completely different. using someone's model in that is like putting their character in a story. while in VRChat you just are that character
200k is too fucking much
I know
polys dont affect for shit unless they reach into like the 60k

at least on the avatar
There's a limit for polys somewhere around the 64k area where Unity has to split it into a separate object for... reasons. That causes a second draw call and does stuff to performance.
hence why I find the 20k poly limit bizzarre and stupid at the same time
at least for today
I've heard many different possible reasons for the limit. Stuff like it's an old limit from the early days of vrchat, it's for keeping the total poly limit in check, it's to force people into researching model optimization, etc.
None of which have ever really been confirmed as the actual reason.
@rough pulsar what about objects hooked under hierarchy in unity? like guns, etc... do they trigger second call?
So if anyone asks why 20k, give an answer.
Of literally anything.
You could even just shout PUPPIES! and that would be good enough.
Cause people are still uploading avatars with 37 seperate materials for everyone else to download
maybe cus when VR chat started it needed 20k not to fuck the server over, and if they increase we could prob think "hey they increased it before, why not now?"
@vocal shard Hm, I think so? I know that unity has some built-in optimizations on character models, as long as they only use one skinned mesh renderer. If they're just regular meshes (non-deforming) that keeps things fine, but if you have two skinned mesh renderers, that kind of defeats the optimizations.
I THINK.
I hate decimating my avatars and I'm fucking lazy
@leaden kiln If you know anyone who does that, gently slap them then tell them to merge their goddamn materials.
Then cuddle later.
lets just put it this way..even with 20k limit, people can still easily cause lag with other methods, so if anything, it needs to be slightly raised but other restrictions imposed..somehow
Does anyone have an idle animation of an avatar having their hands in their pockets? Or folding arms? Please message me if so.
You can't really. They're the ones up on the site and you can only get them as a unity package that you can't export anything from to optimise it.
Yeah, this is something that's been discussed a lot. Up the poly count with extra restrictions, like a max of 5 materials, or n dynamic bones, etc etc.
max particles on particle systems as well
Oh god D: Friends don't let friends use shitty models.
Combine your damn materials!
oh boy, restrictions on Dynamic bones?
You'll get some angry users
Hahah right?
imagine only having one boob with physics.
I want my hair to have at least 200 dynamic bones!
Lmao, that'd be fun, Tae.
I want every fucking pixel to have one!
I spent a whole goddamn day manually atlassing my textures so I only have to use 3-4 materials max.
And I literally can't go below that.
Hair, Skin, everything else, usually.
i want to have a model with that intentionally now
Do it.
take it a step further and have the whole left side animated with dynamic bones, and the right side has nothing and is legit stuck in T pose
I friend told me once he saw a character with eye tracking, but instead of the eyes, he placed it on the boobs
Usually its by Particles and lighting.
@vocal shard you fucking what
Dont know if there is a limit on it, but I think like 1-2 Lights per avatar would be best,
who the fuck puts eye tracking on breasts
Oh realtime lights on avatars are... you need to be careful with those because that's a highway to lagtown.
Also have they disabled allowing directional light as something?
There is no reason to have that
Imagine how amazing that would look like!
quietly pushes lightning particle system with 50 point lights out of view
Directional might be disabled on avatars, fortunately.
It should be
You walking around, and the boobs are just somewhat following your direction
It lights up entire map
Lights never seem to work for me :<
i believe directional lights are disabled. dont scenes have them by default in unity? my one is not exported with the avatar at least
I wanted to make a flashlight mechanic for my avatar
for worlds that have garbage af lighting
like Gaia Night
@vital rune i gave my avatar pyromancer-esque flames to solve that issue
I have a version of my avatar with a point light on it.
For those worlds with no damn lighting.
i can hold a fireball in my hand or blast it forward to light up dark maps 😄
Or even worse, worlds with no lighting that just use unlit materials.
Unlit material, best material
How do I instantly make someone cringe?
oh RIP
so a flashlight mechanic is pretty much the only way
when your model picture is just her shoes
Unlit materials: LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE
nozomi, yeszomi

just make it look like there's a flashlight duct taped to your character's head and shove a light on there
Anybody have a good riding crop model I can use?
I was wondering if eye tracking would work on ears
Like you know, a riding crop a jocky uses when on a horse
@plain current give blendswap.com a try
Mkey
or possibly opengameart.org, but that's more for textures and stuff.
I need it for a Mebd model I have
Trying to override one of the emotes so I can deploy it when I use said emote
speaking of unlit stuff, are there similar shaders to cubedparadox's flatlit but like..not flat lit
Now the overriding thing is the harder part for me
i would like lighting to affect my character but haven't really looked into different shaders whatsoever
There's an edited Cubed shader in vrcat.club. Not sure if that's what you want.
ooh i might have to check that out
@polar rose What you might have luck with, if you want to go all the way, is grab a copy of Amplify Shader Editor and make your own shader.
Bear in mind, NPR shading is some crazy shit, and when done right can look amazing, like what they did with Guilty Gear XRD
I have found the best model.
Oooouuu
Fuck I can't find a riding crop
What's another seemingly sfw thing that I could use as a substitute for one?
Oh that is weird. If I open the menu in front of a mirror, it opens in the mirror instead of in front of me.
It's normal for me
Meh you just get used to it
I never noticed it
My cursor also disappears in the menu, that's new.
lucky I have a touch screen
Niceu
Chat dead
that is just fucking great
not 2 seconds of Great Pug
bam black screen by some degenerate
And that's why a pug must become a Shepard
i hate those people tbh
yes, calling them degenerates is necessary
its the people that come in with insanely loud high pitched constant map wide tones
that are the absolute worst
just mic spammers in general tbh
even with the ugandan knuckles, russian tanks.. and the music spammers
i have blocked hundreds of the tanks in the past week alone lol
@vital flame no jokr
I hate people who need to assault my eyeballs with stupendously bright lights flashing around them
same
whilst having my eardrums being shattered by the stuterring USSR theme
i like to use my weapons on the knuckles, i find it to be quite therapeutic.
i mean, people are going in as giant cockroaches now XD
inb4 giant cockroach gang
pls no giant anything gang
yeah, it's already bad we live in a society where memes exist
memes are fine, just not overused/dead shit
true
like if you go into the uganda map now, the only people using it are kids.
I've gone regular visits to Uganda as first-person view Doomguy and Justine
I can conclude
it has gotten worse
I'm so happy to see that place has gone down in users and is no longer in the top three active places
yeah it's officially a dead meme now pretty much
just got the kiddies that are late to the party doing it now
I say let's skip memes
they deserve to be blocked for it... the dead meme's have got to go
i still kinda semi enjoy their presence because they are targets for my weapons like i said 😄
The only reason uganda has that population is because they've figured out how to set invisible portals to it
also
kids that won't stop pestering you
DO YOU KNOW DA WAE???
OH MY GOD SHUT THE FUCK UP
thats a great way to get fireball to the face from me
hit em with that 🅱lock
and my particle effects are big enough to completely cover them. it's great
not a fan of getting lights out like that but i can't deny i did laugh quite a bit at the panic of some users
i was in a world where someone did a white texture once, and another player who was a model of a giant room, also to troll people, actually turned to the good side and let people take refuge in it so they could see their menus
feelsgoodman
Ok I have decided that my goal is to find a way to vrchat through google cardboard on an iphone with a pi as the controller because that's all i have access to
Number 15
@brave granite ever find a solution?
Burger king foot lettuce
The last thing you want in your burger is foot fungus. But as it turns out, that might be what you get.
what world has a 2b skin?
@prime rose nope
Wait what? o-o
@kindred monolith Are you really gonna use your phone to play VRChat? XD
who does that
i guess that'll be fine but... eh it's weird
If you say so
Well, not much choice if i want to vr and i dont have the money...
Thats true
you may be able to location someone DK2 for some mensualities
@prime rose well let me know if you find something :\
Psssst
reeeeee
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

sfx volume is off my dude

@prime rose @hazy marlin lmao
sound fx work fine, I can hear music in void club backroom because it's an audio source with a file bundled in the map file (or something?) but I can't hear it in the dance floor because the music is streaming supposedly?
I don't make maps so I don't know the specifics
but it seems like web requests don't work at all
same goes for youtube panels
I've only seen one working youtube panel 2 weeks ago in a forest campfire map, all other youtube panels have always been blank white
XD
Rip
Gotta have a pretty good phone to enjoy vrchat tho, it's really crappy quality
i still use iPhone SE sadly
Same here :((( @brave granite
get a samsung S6. very huge screen resolution
im trying to get an iPhone X
only $200
i'd rather build my own iPhone X putting Sprint on it instead of AT&T...
no idea 🤷
No !'s allowed in Nicknames
ah
Assuming, since there is no other individuals in the chat with a '!' in the front of their name
So they saw it and decided to change it.
i dont think thats in the rules though
Well I just edited one and added emotes and some custom faces
idk what im trying to say, but people might upload a iffy kanna and kanna is the most well known troll one.
x3
but you should be fine! just check for unneeded geometry.
Its not
You are fine
sorry, im drunk. x[
Taxic, I'd have to ask you to not mention that website on the discord.
For a number of reasons.
OOF
I sorry Taxic, Idek x,x;
it'd be very educational if Taxic was told a reason



Pretty sure some of them are handmade.
