vocal shard
#

and no, i'm not on vr

ruby needle
#

on not vr F12 should make screenshots

whole lodge
#

So F12 didn't work?

vocal shard
#

rip to reporting the person

#

it didn't

ruby needle
#

else on desktop you shoult be able to also use the PRINT key

vocal shard
#

i might've disable f12 a while ago and forgotten about it because it was annoying in ksp

ruby needle
#

but steam screenshots also work normally cirThink

#

oh F12 should be the VRC screnshot function to

#

vr has cameras desktop a screenshot button

whole lodge
#

.. What?

ruby needle
#

dont quote me on the key since i dont use desktop... but there should be a screenshot button since the camera update

#

and sice it renders in a window mode all the time the Print key should also always work (you gotta paste the picture into paint or what ever from the clipboard)

whole lodge
#

@vocal shard
I'm assuming you left the room already.

#

Going forward. If you think you've disabled the F12 key. Going into your steam settings you can rebind it to another key.

vocal shard
#

no but i blocked them and the person seems to have left anyways

#

yeah nvm

whole lodge
#

Alternatively. Just prnt scrn it and ctrl-v it to imgur or something

vocal shard
#

it's not disabled

#

when i pressed f12 the game just lagged out and i didn't even end up getting a screenshot

#

trash

ruby needle
#

check your pictures folder (the normal windows one)

whole lodge
#

In case you aren't familiar. When you close the game. The window will pop up. You'll be able to click "show on disk" to see the files and attach them to your report

#

They won't be in the pictures folder if Han used F12 @ruby needle

#

@vocal shard Alwell. Always next time. If you remember the name you could file the report anyway and see if they investigate further.

vocal shard
#

i have them blocked so

#

is there any way to view blocked players

whole lodge
#

@vocal shard or if they logged out with that avatar on. Searching them in the social may yield their model on display as the picture while you can screenshot.

#

Not specifically. You'd have to remember their name.

vocal shard
#

well that's dumb

#

vrchat team add this feature

#

to view blocked players' names

ruby needle
#

oh i looked it up its control + F12 for desktop screenshot

whole lodge
#

It's just f12

ruby needle
whole lodge
#

@vocal shard can you confirm its simply F12?

vocal shard
#

Just use the print key and paste?

whole lodge
#

Some people just want quick shots. I just do prnt scrn

#

For things on pc

ruby needle
#

you gotta paste it tho

#

from clipboard

#

also the crtl-F12 function renders a 4K scene

whole lodge
#

... Rofl

#

OK Paul

#

Thank you

ruby needle
#

unless you have a 4k monitor you aing getting that with print screen cirBaka

whole lodge
#

You don't need a 4k screen shot for a report

#

What are you going on about?

vocal shard
#

Still faster than searching a screenshot when you need it now cirno_shrug

ruby needle
#

you generalised it "for things on pc" so my answere is general too

#

not for a report

#

but anyway cirMini

whole lodge
#

The matter is a repo--

#

OK paul

#

Thanks for your input

ruby needle
#

Thanks for your input Rukio cirBaka

whole lodge
#

F12 works well for steam @vocal shard but yeah I agree

#

I have Gyazo aswell

#

Super useful

ruby needle
#

ShareX cirGasm

vocal shard
#

I dld sharex 2 years ago

#

Never set it up

#

Did every update tho

#

it's just f12 in my steam settings

#

#lazyaf

whole lodge
#

That's all you need

ruby needle
#

yeah it needs a littel bit of setup since its not a single provider client programm

#

buts it worth

#

especially if you own a website and can use yoru own FTP and such

#

or want to share things to different platforms

vocal shard
#

Ik I just hate thinking about keybinds

#

Complicated math in my head

hazy oak
#

does anyone know how much i have to play on a new account to upload avatars
been like 8 hours

ruby needle
#

you can set the keybinds your self to the same the other programs use ๐Ÿ˜„

#

so how is that an excuse? cirBaka

#

@hazy oak at lease 3 times that

#

its not based on a set time periode but on a trust score you have to archive

#

it varys a lot from player to player on how long it will take you to get it

hazy oak
#

i see

ruby needle
#

20-40h seems to be a good span for normal

#

but there is always exceptions

#

just keep playing untill you get a message / email for it cirComfy

hazy oak
#

oooh boy is that cancerous

#

but okay

ruby needle
#

its totally okay

#

think about it

#

you have to deal with it once

#

bad guys every time a account gets suspendet

#

it makes the concideration to do something stupid a lot harder. and can kill the motivation a lot faster

vocal shard
#

is anyone else having as issue where their camera move to a weird location on the map?

#

I've been trying to fix this for like an hour

#

its only one map

#

Maybe it's the map?

#

its great pug. Highly doubt it

#

my character still loads in the camera just isnt attached

#

it just floats in one spot

#

Oh

#

I had that

#

Long time ago

#

Different instance of the pug worked again

#

Wierd stuff tho

opaque remnant
#

someone is placing cameras in the pug. you can see some floating in the air on the first floor

#

it messes yours up

vocal shard
#

thats stupid

#

thanks for telling me though

ruby needle
#

there is a hack to mess with the camera position in hack tools. maybe it is that?

#

(if it gets fixed on a different instance)

vocal shard
#

ill try

opaque remnant
#

it's been going on for quite a while, and they seem to just skip around placing cameras in every single one

#

which is why the pug is dying right now

vocal shard
#

imagine spending your time doing that

#

image spending your time

#

making other peoples gameplay ruined

#

and you dont even get to see it

ruby needle
#

well they know it

vocal shard
#

its not even like you get the satisfaction of seeing them be mad

ruby needle
#

thats enoght for them

#

at least for some

vocal shard
#

thats honestly pathetic

#

welp

ruby needle
#

you know what kind of people we talk about right?

#

๐Ÿ˜„

vocal shard
#

where should I go to replace pug then

#

because that was basically the only place I went

#

Madcat

#

If this known by the devs?

#

Both that the glitch exists and that some guy is going around spamming cams

boreal slate
#

Aaaaah

#

After exactly 30 hours, I finally got my notice!

ruby needle
#

cirGasm congratz

boreal slate
#

I am going to upload ALL the banned avatars~

ruby needle
#

rip you access soon(tm) then cirBaka

sly wind
#

Hi

vocal shard
#

go to the cupboard

vocal shard
#

does anyone know if blocking affects the trust system strikes??

inner cape
#

Shouldn't

#

There is no way it does.

raven silo
#

@vocal shard i dont think block will but maybe report person and Moderation give them warning

#

might effect it

strong pelican
#

Welp this is fun, someone has fig out how to literally screw up everyones avatar in the pug with like 20 people in the world

#

its also force loading people in a weird 3rd person perspective far away from their avatar

somber rapids

The uni is letting us use some Oculus's PogChamp

@boreal slate :(, I'm at 40+... no notice for me.

vocal shard
#

@raven silo it's good, the world is gone now

#

is mx 150 vr ready?

#

im thinking of getting new laptop for vr

shy nest
#

just dont get a laptop

#

get a pc if you want vr

devout island
#

There are good laptops for vr, if you're willing to pay for them

vocal shard
#

hmm

#

gtx 1080?

#

is gtx 1080 vr ready?

ruby needle
#

are you legitiemately asking if the current best high end consumer line card is vr ready? cirBaka

vocal shard
#

yes?

ruby needle
#

ok

#

yes

shy nest
#

then no

ruby needle
#

yes it is

vocal shard

lmao

ruby needle
#

DeeJay cirBaka

shy nest
#

heh

#

i still need to get a 1080

ruby needle
#

nah

#

gotta wait for 2k

vocal shard
#

hmm

#

shall i use my 940mx laptop for not vr but use a gtx 1080 for vr?

kind folio

summer fable
#

Hi all

devout island
#

@vocal shard Your 940m is pretty crappy so yeah go for 1080

vocal shard
#

If you can afford it, a 1080 would be a nice upgrade for sure

uncut trail
#

1070 would be best option

#

Ti

fading owl
#

every gpu rn isnt worth it

#

way too expensive

how do i make my map public?

Try to avoid bottle necking if you have a mediocre cpu

proper prism
#

Hoi

sudden rapids
#

I have a laptop with a 1070 that's supposedly vr capable

#

tho I've only done vrchat in desktop mode on it

fading owl
#

should be

#

1070 is fine

inner cape
#

Laptop though vrpill

vocal shard
#

"fine" I need an upgrade..

inner cape
#

But still decent

fading owl
#

laptops are fine

#

my bud has a laptop thats twice as strong as my desktop

vocal shard
#

But does it have a numpad? ๐Ÿ˜›

fading owl
#

yes

#

why shouldnt it owo

vocal shard
#

Some laptops don't

fading owl
#

ive never seen a laptop without numpad o.o

vocal shard
#

I have, I judge them harshly

#

I hate the minimalastic arrow keys too, it's almost impossible to play tetris on

fading owl
#

xD

#

tru

#

thats the only thing i hate about laptops

#

the keyboard

vocal shard
#

Not to mention the useless pad, or even worse, the key-board nipple mouse

fading owl
#

i need a mechanical one with feedback, else i wont be happy

vocal shard
#

Mechanical ones seem nice, but I don't like noise. Also it's easier to write fast on smaller buttons, if they're too tall you waste time pressing them (I know because I have a G19 at home)

fading owl
#

i need dat extra tallness

#

๐Ÿ˜›

#

and the noise

vocal shard
#

taka taka taka taka

fading owl
#

exactly

#

especially nice to hear that feedback when playing osu

median basalt
#

The nipple mouse is pretty good though

#

Beats a Touchpad IMO

vocal shard
#

For a nipple, it's pretty good, but have you every tried playing an FPS on it?

median basalt
#

I have

#

It's not good of course, but it's better than a Touchpad

sudden rapids
#

yeah, my laptop is i7 7700HQ, 1070, 16GB DDR4, 256 SSD and 1TB hybrid drive. It's as strong as most good desktops

#

its just I use it mostly at work, and as amusing as it would be to vr at work... it's a nono

vocal shard
#

Yeah that's not bad

fading owl
#

dat thing is a beast xD

I changed my home to my world so idk

yeah, it does look like that looking second time ๐Ÿ˜‚

not sure though if its an afk detection feature or not as its not working really well

winged quartz
#

Oh wait

#

Getting lagged and going back home

#

Yeah

#

Happens a lot to me

true sky
#

yeah

winged quartz
#

I think that's because of the ping limit

true sky
#

i am not lagging and still get kicked back

winged quartz
#

Sometimes my ping goes high af idk why

#

Yeah sometimes happens to me without lagging

indigo fern
#

Yea, my connection to the game is weird too

winged quartz
#

I was singing and in the best part of the song when I was just thrown back into my world ๐Ÿ˜ข

vast tulip
#

If you get kicked to your home that means you disconnected from the game

#

You disconnect and on reconnect you return to your home

jaunty apex
#

inb4 kicked for pepe emote

vast tulip
#

So it has something to do with your internet most likely, I'm only guessing it's your internet because i haven't been kicked to the home/hub once in months

vocal shard
#

Do remove the pepe emote, thank you. blobcatthumbsup

winged quartz
#

I guess it has something with the ping limit

gloomy pine
#

I would react with monkaS, but that's pepe as well lolistare

#

Glam Glitter Shader was a thing 3 years ago, guess its gone for good

jaunty apex

super vague

#

what does it do?

gloomy pine
jaunty apex
#

starnest shader can do something like that

winged quartz
#
  1. No emoji and pictures/memes that are widely associated with hate speech, or are highly inappropriate, including pepe.
    .
    Why is pepe associated to hate speech?
gloomy pine
#

oh yeah, that one maybe

vast tulip
#

I've seen people using these so they are still around

umbral reef
#

Bornato an US funded group has pepe on the list so thats why

#

And most bias media do the same

winged quartz
#

๐Ÿค”

#

That's confusing

toxic dagger
#

The memes were too strong

winged quartz
#

Strongest meme gets banned from the internet

It's for our own protection, I'm sorry pepe

ive been kicked back to the home world and still have a ping of 85

no matter if I look at it or not

Was sitting in the pug, and I was kicked back.

T_T

wraith cliff

and I'm stuck at tutorial

vocal shard

it's pretty complex

wraith cliff
#

there's nothing online about it

ruby needle
#

have you already restarted teh game? cirLaugh

wraith cliff

multiple times

#

waiting for over an hour is boring

ruby needle

try starting to the hub or home world

wraith cliff

Tutorial is the only world I have problems with

rest is fine

ruby needle

so you want to do the tutorial? ๐Ÿ˜„

wraith cliff
#

yes

ruby needle

hmm

#

clearing the cache, temp and registry entries

wraith cliff

gonna try

only messed up my settings, nothing else

hmm

just posted on reddit for faster response

ruby needle

faster respone? ๐Ÿ˜„

still worth a try tho cirComfy

tacit plank
#

I'm not at all impressed with the new content gating system

#

Steam accounts can change avatars still, kind of defeats the point lol

ruby needle
#

erm

vocal shard
#

wat?

ruby needle
#

this is about uploading custom content

cold talon
ruby needle
#

not ingame models from pedestrals

tacit plank
#

I'm not talking about pedestals

wraith cliff
#

...

tacit plank
#

I'm talking about Steam users changing into custom avatars all they want

ruby needle
#

hacking avatars?

cold talon
#

How ๐Ÿค”

ruby needle
#

no matter what you mean it wont change that they cant at all upload content

tacit plank
#

My guess is that the modified client can still copy any users avatars when used on a Steam account

ruby needle
#

the gating is supposed to regulate uploading content

tacit plank
#

They don't have to upload content if they can change to any character at any time

ruby needle
#

but only if that avatar already exists...

vocal shard
#

but that's a different issue altogether

cold talon
#

But thars a different problem

ruby needle
#

yes

#

and it affects both steam and vrchat accounts

#

the content gating is to make it harder to add malicious content to the game

tacit plank
#

The avatars always exist. Even if you delete avatars in Unity, the exist on the server and can be accessed

cold talon
#

I think even the non trusted modified client can take ava

ruby needle
#

sure, i dont se why not since technically ther should be no diference between steam and vrchat

#

in terms of hacking

tacit plank
#

They can

cold talon
#

Well than we are upping security, next update: can not log in unless aproved by moderators.

tacit plank
#

I'm not sure exactly how they could fix the issue, but the system seems pointless when cheaters are 100% unrestricted as long as they remember an avatar ID or have a friend with a VRChat account

#

The update meant a burden for new players to get approved, so it should have a good side as well for it to be worth it

ruby needle
#

it has...

cold talon
#

This system is ment to kep the malicious avatars to a minimum not for hakz, i see its point but sometimes its a little excessive

umbral reef
#

Would be better to suggest a easier fix then "Just make it so they cant steal it" as that aint easy oor another system

#

Also as bahka said

#

Its mainly for crashers not thiefs

ruby needle
#

its to limit malicious content getting added

tacit plank
#

Malicious avatars are still on the server, and any friends of the Steam users can upload new ones

ruby needle
#

yes untill they get banned

#

and are gated

#

with this system banning and removeing content gets more efficient then before

tacit plank
#

Also "make sure they can't steal it" is difficult to do. They should stop people from loading avatars tagged as private though... I can't see how that can be difficult

cold talon
#

Should make youtube heros for vrchat tanabae

umbral reef
#

They will have to throw it in a world for them to even use it
what means ti can be reported and both get banned what means they gotta go true the trust system again

ruby needle
#

@tacit plank if they pull it off how i think they do its not that easy to prevent

tacit plank
#

If you upload them on one account and use the avatars on a Steam account, there is no risk. And like I said, the offending avatar doesn't seem to be removed anyways

umbral reef
#

To be fair, imo the most first logical step they should do is get an well known an easy to use report system for users...

tacit plank
#

onChangeAvatar()
{
if (avatar.IsPrivate && avatar.Owner != currentUser.name)
{ return; }
}

umbral reef
#

Because the amount of peeps that do not know how to report anyone is insane

tacit plank
#

An ingame report system (which automatically uploads your current log or at least the past 10MB of it) would be useful I think

ruby needle
#

@tacit plank but what if they never tell the server they change into it, insted trick the clients into thinking they are it and they just normaly request it

vocal shard
#

would still be easy to dl

ruby needle
#

because such a check as you said definitely exists. else i would be surprised

tacit plank
#

Changing avatar requires doing server-sided things, otherwise it would only be visible locally

ruby needle
#

if you actually change yes

umbral reef
#

That check thig was kinda the whole point of the private and public thing

ruby needle
#

not if you spoof it

tacit plank
#

It is send to others in the room by the server, so they server will know what avatar every person has

#

Furthermore, they have to request the stolen avatar in order to change into it, the server should here check if the avatar is private or not (and if it's private, check for permissions)

ruby needle
#

how it most likely works is that the clients request the id of the persons in room without the server checking if that person is in room or not

tacit plank
#

If you go to the API for a player in a private world, the API will refuse to tell you the world ID, it will just display "hidden" instead. So it's doable to hide or refuse things

ruby needle
#

which means that if a wrong id i spoofed they would request a differend id effectively changeing the avatar

#

different systems

tacit plank
#

When requesting an ID, it should refuse it if it's private (even if it's on a pedestal), that would solve the first issue.
Checking if the avatar exists on a pedestal in the world or in the current users avatars would be another big improvement

#

Btw avatars are requested by ID, not by username

ruby needle
#

you understood what i said tho? if im in a room with you
my id is 1
yours is 2
you will request the id 1 from the servers as my palyer avatar to display

#

but what if i tricked your client into thinking im 2 ?

#

you will request 2 making me look like you

#

the server cant deny it even if its private

#

it has to some how display me

tacit plank
#

Clients should never trust other clients, only servers

ruby needle
#

i have no idea how they spoof

#

i just belive that it bases on that

tacit plank
#

My client should ask the server, who should then send the avatar model to my client

#

You could be right, I'm just saying that should be possible to prevent if designed right

ruby needle
#

it should yes. the question is how much rework / changes are needed to implement a protection

#

without breaking the existing system

#

and how much priority it is when the move to a newer unity engine is also in sight (even if i doubt thats gonna be an issue on a different version)

umbral reef
#

big odds they are already rebuilding most of there structure stuff to make a fool proof system

cold talon
#

Oke writing that on a sticky note 4 the devs

vocal shard
warped urchin
#

you know if they authed the avatars with a steam client id you'd never be able to use another persons avatar by stealing it. Maybe link steam or a specific phrase to the account. Or even better a hash of your passwords hash. All only serverside, and none of this info would be requestable. If anything goes wrong inbetween this and the client loading the avatar it just loads the blocked avatar.

#

Steam 64bit id's are long and require you to know the persons steam account

#

and if you don't

#

then you're outta luck

#

I mean there's a bunch of very good methods to locking an avatar

#

but just throwing out suggestions that's all

umbral reef
#

thing is not all accs are steam accs though

ruby needle
#

if they auth it with something it wount be steam based but their own system

#

else it wont make sense

#

it has to be usable by both account options

#

all wont change tho

#

if the attackers can trick the clients/server into thinking they have to load that avatar because its that persons current avatar

#

and even if they could prevent it, cache/ram ripping will become even more used

#

which is the even worse methode

#

nothing you can do

#

and its their legit uploadet avatars then

vocal shard
#

Allthough in that case the trust thing is a 'soft wall' against that

#

Soft since the ppl with half a brain will do it sneaky enough

floral aspen
#

the trust system is just a deterrent anyway

ruby needle
#

its fine... really..

#

you deal with it once as normal player and be done with it...

#

yes it's not the greatest way, but it is also not unbearable

#

yes it might suck for mostly smaller portion of player who instantly want to upload or people who do commissions and have aclient without the ability to upload, but the rest really should be fine.

#

the thing i really see needs to be done is that is hast to be made more clear on launch that you will not be able to use custom content with a steam account and that you cant transfere it over to a new account

vocal shard
#

Pretty sure it's a vocal minority

floral aspen
#

its always the vocal minority. The majority are playing VRChat instead of whining on discord

ruby needle
#

yes

vocal shard
#

I don't do either monikaS

floral aspen
#

y u no play?

vocal shard
#

Working on model ResidentSleeper

floral aspen
#

oh, yeah same here

vocal shard
#

So may I ask custom avatars don't work with your steam linked account?

#

Just confused why I need to create a seperate account to do that.

#

More a technical inqery.

fair hill
#

I was curious, just because i'm a little dumb, can you actually download the models that you upload with the sdk? ๐Ÿค”

#

Sorry for the stupid question btw

#

@vocal shard you just need a vrchat account to upload models

#

Can't do that with steam

vocal shard
#

can you use them?

fair hill
#

Well, you need to take them from the avatar worlds

vocal shard
#

Should I be able to do it if I log onto vrchat's website.

fair hill
#

But yeah, you can use them

#

You can't upload your own models, only public ones

red flicker
#

Does anyone have the color shader?

vocal shard
#

Why? What's the technical limitation that prevents that?

#

Its why the fact its steam linked or not that prevents it that's confusing me.

ruby needle
#

might be as simple as time and other priorities then inplementing things like account migration or a upload system for steam too

winged quartz
#

Nice horns in your picture @red flicker

#

Also yeah, the devs are way too busy atm

#

They'll implement this sooner or later anyway

vocal shard
#

Yea. I have serious questions other wise.

#

Good thing they have early access slapped onto vrchat.

prisma timber
#

I have the rainbow shader. @red flicker

red flicker
#

@prisma timber Where if you touch someone, you get their color?

prisma timber
#

No

red flicker
#

Ah.

prisma timber
#

Anyone know how to make an object that is inside of an object render outside of the object that it is in?

topaz panther
#

Coming up on 200 hours.. how much longer before I can upload my own avatar? This is kind of dumb to wait this long...

vocal shard
#

rex is a trash character

#

also that sounds like way too long to have waited

#

sounds like you might've just been playing on a steam account the entire time

topaz panther
#

prob the first 30-40 hours were steam

vocal shard
topaz panther
#

last 100+ have been VRChat account

vocal shard
#

and you haven't just been AFKing?

topaz panther
#

nope

#

made plenty of friends.. havent been blocked that I know of

vocal shard
#

weird

#

i was able to upload my nia avatar after like

#

30 hours

topaz panther
#

I'll prob give it another 20 hours

#

after that I'll just give up and give all my avatars that I've made to a friend of mine to upload to her world

#

at least then I can still use them

solid raft
#

uhhh, hey im having trouble accessing the vrchat website

#

for the sdk

topaz panther
#

not able to log in?

solid raft
#

like, i login but the home never loads

topaz panther
#

you can go to #vrchat-support and under ====== SDK / Unity Editor Issues ====== the link to the SDK is under 1.

solid raft
#

ok thanks

vocal shard
#

hmm

#

i found an avatar but clicking on "build & publish" results in a windows error sound with no error message popping up in unity, and unity itself not doing anything

the console is showing some errors but i'm not quite sure what they mean

I'm running into an issue where if I get too close to portals(even if they are a meter away and behind a wall) I get teleported without going into them.

tidal remnant
#

is ur SDK the latest one?

#

@vocal shard

vocal shard
#

yeah

#

i was able to upload other avatars just fine

#

it's just this one that isn't working

tidal remnant
#

hmmm

vocal shard
#

Try making a new Directory

tidal remnant
#

^

#

ye

vocal shard
#

wdym

tidal remnant
#

like

#

make a new folder

prisma timber
#

Also I get forcefully respawn looped in some maps too.

vocal shard
#

a new folder in unity?

#

Fresh project folder, had an issue with that once

#

Mhm

tidal remnant
#

^

#

yep

vocal shard
#

hmm

#

okay

tidal remnant
#

ohh man

#

i cant wait until i can finally publish things

#

;-----;

prisma timber
#

Maybe I have to remove the collision with some of the geometry?

vocal shard
#

i CaNt WaIt To PuBlIsH mY uGaNdAn LoLi AvAtAr

vrpill a what now

#

i don't really know

#

but someone has probably made it

#

Well kannas with dewey faces do exist

#

I suppose that counts

#

yeah i guess so

prisma timber
#

Just solved my own problem I think. Removed collider from object.

vocal shard
#

getting the same error

tidal remnant
#

weird

#

reinstall sdk

vocal shard
#

Did you check the place where it says 'does mot exist'?

#

C/users something something

#

nah

#

don't think i'm gonna bother anymore

#

i'm tired

#

giving up for today

tidal remnant
#

yee its good if you went and checked the main directory where you get the errors

#

maybe

vocal shard
#

Just check if the file's actually there

tidal remnant
#

i dont know much about vrchat errors

#

XD

#

im a coder xD

full ivy
#

anyways i think about the crash with steam vr

#

i think it was the beta version to do it

tidal remnant
#

oh wot

#

it says "Allowed to Publish avatars"

i'm still waiting to be able to upload ;.;

Lmao

#

Read the instruction first

tidal remnant
#

dont worry :3 you will get it eventually

vocal shard
hollow kraken
#

i can only hope

#

gives me time to do some small things

vocal shard
#

So I just put a new SDK in, and it didn't change my audio from SFX to Avatar. Any fix?

hollow kraken
#

sadly, i haven't done much with audio, maybe going back to the old sdk to save the sounds, go back to the new sdk and throw them in manually?

#

i have no idea if it'll work but it may be worth a shot?

#

i could also just be blowing stuff out my ass also...

vocal shard
#

Is ther anyone here who know how to do "animation" on a avatar? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

hollow kraken
#

maybe try the #animation chat, bound to be someone in there

vocal shard
#

yeah but i dont undestand it .. i dont know how to find a animation to a key

hollow kraken
#

you got me there, i'm still trying to learn half the stuff unity can do, i had a little experience with unity before, but now i have the experience of a man who just watched a 30 minute video about how to do stuff. so i'd say ask in the #animation channel, someone isn't effectively a Child hitting a square in a round hole should be able to help.

#

and i have to admit it, i just spent a solid 2 minutes on how to spell "Child", gave up and googled "Plural Children"

vocal shard
#

i will do that thansk ๐Ÿ˜„

hollow kraken
#

i promise you, i am not 7

#

i just spell worse then a 7 year old

vocal shard
#

That's singular tho

#

Not plural

hollow kraken
#

got me the answer i wanted, whatever works

#

i don't care if the first thing that pops up is "Child is singular now and children in plural", let me figure out i'm an idiot

tfw you find the perfect model on your steam account, you log onto your vrchat account but forget what world it came from, its a wild goose chase!

torpid gulch
#

Recently have world downloads/avatars been really slow for anyone?

#

I never had this issue in the past, but it started about a week ago ):

#

I haven't :x

floral flaxBOT
#

You can clean cache by deleting the vrchat folder within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat

torpid gulch
#

I'll check it out. Thank you<333

vocal shard
#

So I'm not sure how I can get the permissions to upload my own avatar from SDK, I have a 40 hours of play time on it, and it stills says I don't have permission to upload

Ugh

Sounds about right

Welp, I got the answer finally

alright thanks and sorry for asking this here

errant creek
#

@vast tulip wow, many thanks for working on it and even remembering that i was looking for it -- i wasn't expecting anyone to remember my interest in it for that long ๐Ÿ˜›

vast tulip
#

np :> let me know if it has issues!

limber edge
#

I'm in the same world as @nova storm I got screenshots and a little footage of it for proof

errant creek
#

@vast tulip having the karts actually respawn if you fall off the map is definitely a neat addition, i don't remember that feature being there before ๐Ÿ˜›
it's still a bit hard to rescue karts which are flipped upside down since they don't seem to have the respawn button on them, but it's easy enough to start a new session if we wind up flipping over every single one of them

i'm not too sure whether the two attached photos are intentional or somewhat unavoidable, but in the first one, there's a visible cube near the player spawn point that's got some kind of script attached to it (the background music, i'm guessing?).

the second photo, the first jump-ramp in the course seems to display the shadows of objects behind it -- i'm not too sure if that's a unity quirk or just a result of how the geometry of the stage was made.

i don't really consider any of it as stuff that actually gets in the way of enjoying the map, but just might be some oddities of interest if you haven't spotted them before

abstract palm

Where are good placement areas for sensors for oculas :0

cold talon

Depends how many oculas sensors you have

abstract palm
#

I will only have 2 because I'm to poor to get 3 T.T

cold talon
#

Put them at a distance of maximum 2 meters apart from each other and about at the height of your chest

#

Alternatively they can be placed on stands above the play area pointed down for better low to ground tracking

safe prism
#

you can do it with OpenVR Advanced Settings

vocal shard
#

controversial opinion: Daily/Weekly upload cap on avatars

#

but allow 'test' avatars (models that you can upload to test and is visible to your acc but not visible to others)

halcyon ingot
#

Why have a cap?

vocal shard
#

I take it the server capacity will be reduced, potentially reducing business costs, potentially less bandwidth usage as people won't need to download heaps of unique avatars each time they enter a room, and less download time for everyone to download avatars

#

I run 2mbs down and it takes ~20mins to load people

halcyon ingot
#

People will still need to download avatars when they enter a room.

vocal shard
#

yeah but caching my friend

timber junco
#

Yeah you don't load all of their uploaded avatars

halcyon ingot
#

And they can already turn off others avatars

#

And ye korbo is right

vocal shard
#

that's a moot point

halcyon ingot
#

Not really

vocal shard
#

how so?

halcyon ingot
#

Since it's fundamental to the arguement

vocal shard
#

how so?

#

I never said you download all their uploaded avatars

halcyon ingot
#

Heaps of unique avatars implies that is what you meant, I took it like that too

vocal shard
#

unique avatars as in custom upload avatars

halcyon ingot
#

Ye

vocal shard
#

I know a lot of people that upload a new version of their avatar every day with minor changes and being able to just upload test models would reduce the stress on everyones internet

timber junco
#

I'm pretty sure they would want to have other people see the changes though

halcyon ingot
#

But you aren't downloading all their models

vocal shard
#

that's why you would upload it as an actual model instead of a test one @timber junco

#

moot point @halcyon ingot

halcyon ingot
#

But it isn't

vocal shard
#

you are downloading the one that is in the same room as you

halcyon ingot
#

Yes

vocal shard
#

yes

halcyon ingot
#

So why does it matter if they upload new version with changes

vast tulip
#

@errant creek the first picture is a cube i use to tell if the map actually updates. When I'm playing with triggers i want to be sure it updated since there normally isn't a visual change so i move the cube a bit. Nothing is attached to it. I started to leave it intentionally because people were always so confused by it

vocal shard
#

because the next day they might have another version of it that you will need to download again @halcyon ingot

#

despite perhaps a small change in texture map or something

halcyon ingot
#

It sounds to me like you should just turn off others models to help with your situation.

vocal shard
#

ok new argument then

#

be allowed to unblock certain people's avatars

#

without needing to add them as a friend

timber junco
#

That is a good feature, I'm sure it's been suggested already though

vocal shard
#

checking now

halcyon ingot
#

Sure, that's not arguement. But I doubt that would be implemented anytime soon as it is such an outlier issue.

vocal shard
#

not being able to see people is a pretty big problem if you ask me

#

or rather; some people not being able to see people's avatars

halcyon ingot
#

I wouldn't call it a problem

#

It's a solution to a problem

sudden rapids
#

48 hours in vrchat

#

no upload

halcyon ingot
#

It's not exclusively time based

#

It's based on your trust score

#

You need to make friends and stuff like that

sudden rapids
#

I have over 20

#

how many do I need

halcyon ingot
#

No idea

#

They won't say

#

Because then it is easy to get past

#

It would be nice to have some more concrete idea of what you need to do though.

timber junco
#

Or it's so complex they cannot explain it properly

#

I'm standing with my theory you just have to jump over 10000 times though

sudden rapids
#

Yes, it would. I can understand the reasoning behind it, but not it's execution.

Alt f4 for free upload

@sudden rapids vrchat developers is a nutshell

timber junco
#

We don't know what exactly gets you the rights so all we can do is make up weird theories

sudden rapids
#

yeah. It's just I'm sucky using crappily rigged avatars from avatar worlds when I have like 3-4 I've worked on a bit in unity and can't even try them out

halcyon ingot
#

I get you fam

#

Wish I could help

#

F to pay respects

sudden rapids
#

Its sad cause I'll get an email from unity and be all "WOO! AVATAR TIME!", but it turns out to be just a welcome to unity email

timber junco
#

rip

sudden rapids
#

rooREE I've already been using it, I don;t need another welcome!

halcyon ingot
#

Do your receive an email when you can upload?

sudden rapids
#

Yer supposed to get an email and some sort of notification in vrchat I think

halcyon ingot
#

Ok didn't know that

sudden rapids
#

lemme double check

timber junco
#

It should tell you in the sdk if you're allowed to upload

sudden rapids
#

yeah

#

yeah, email and sdk

timber junco
#

Rip

shut scroll

halcyon ingot
#

What happens to them?

cosmic delta
#

I'm not very good with computers. Whats a computer good for VR chat

#

Is a computer with 3.4GHz and 8GB memory good enough?

halcyon ingot
#

What is the name of the memory and CPU?

cosmic delta
#

Seventh gen intel core i5

halcyon ingot
#

Does it just any numbers or letters associated with the CPU?

#

That would look something like 7600k or 7600

fading owl
#

Cpu is not important really

halcyon ingot
#

It is

fading owl
#

no it isnt ^^

halcyon ingot
#

Is tho

fading owl
#

my cpu is shit but my 1070 handles vr anyway

#

Its GPU intensive my friend

halcyon ingot
#

I know

fading owl
#

my CPU is an I5 thats 5 years old now

#

and still no cpu problems

halcyon ingot
#

Cool

cosmic delta
#

Its an intel i5-7500

halcyon ingot
#

Still important

fading owl
#

nah

halcyon ingot
#

Are you here to help this dude or argue?

fading owl
#

i5 7500 is fine my dude

halcyon ingot
#

7500 should be fine

#

What is the GPU of the computer?

fading owl
#

4xxx and up are good to go

cosmic delta
#

Radeon Pro 560

fading owl
#

no clue when it comes to amd ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป

halcyon ingot
#

That might run the game on desktop

#

But it's not good enough for vr

cosmic delta
#

Oh ๐Ÿ˜” my major concern is lagging, crashing and computer overheating (which are with my current laptop)

halcyon ingot
#

That GPU would struggle I think

warped dew
#

either there's like hidden verts that refuse to be selected when i try to move them, causing the whole thing to break Yes, even after i remove doubles or my artist side gets to me and goes "NO, don't do that!"

cosmic delta
#

What kind of specs should i be looking for in a GPU?

#

Is it GPU base speed?

fading owl
#

@warped dew that was pretty random xD

halcyon ingot
#

I would try to stick with Nvidia when it comes to GPU

#

A gtx 1050 or better would be my suggestion for desktop

cosmic delta
#

Ok. Thanks for your time. I really appreciate it ๐Ÿ˜Š

halcyon ingot
#

Np dude

cosmic delta
#

Last question, is it the base clock that determines how good GPU is?

worldly vapor
#

Yes and no

#

Thereโ€™s more too it

halcyon ingot
#

It's a number of factors

#

Core clock

#

Core count

fading owl
#

Theres also features like Multithreading which can make a difference

halcyon ingot
#

Memory clock + amount

safe prism
#

GPUs overclock theirselves in recent times, two of the same base chip (e.g. an ASUS 1070 vs some other 1070) will only differ in how well they cool

graceful abyss
#

is it fun to use it with a vive? Going to try it out either later today or tomorrow, haven't used vrchat before

timber junco
#

The game is miles better in VR

graceful abyss
#

cool, sadly ill be one of those mute players for a while, I'm shy enough as it is in person around strangers, online its even harder for me to voice chat lol

timber junco
#

At least with VR you can somewhat communicate when you're not talking

#

With desktop you'd just be some random guy just standing there

graceful abyss
#

cant desktop type though?

#

& yeah I will be trying to use the new vive trackers with it, so itll be interesting what can be translated through body motions

gloomy pine
#

Quick question what measurements does vrchat/unity use? Editing the proximity for entering chair atm

safe prism
#

1 unit = 1 meter

#

ideally

graceful abyss
#

ah okay, i was watching some youtube videos of it, I guess that was a streamer chat thing instead being shown in the upper corner

median basalt
#

Tbh I'm glad that there's no text chat

#

Forces people to use their mic out of their comfort zone

#

The game would be pretty boring if it supported text tbh

#

Just rooms full of people spouting chat bubbles at each other

#

@graceful abyss if you're mute, you can gesture or write

#

I did a response board actually. I can pull out a 3x3 square board of stuff to say, such as Hello, Yes, No, etc.

#

Then I point at the thing I want to say

#

There's also prefabs for writing in the air

timber junco
#

Prefabs ๐Ÿ‘€

#

I was promised a prefab Rokk

median basalt
#

Oh yeah, I'll send it to you once I'm done with homework lol

timber junco
#

I just plop it on the head bone right?

median basalt
#

No, you need to put it on your avatar's object and raise it up to head level

#

That's what I do and it works

#

Attaching stuff to your head rarely works

timber junco
#

I mean it just has to collide, right?

median basalt
#

Yeah, but the particle system uses a subemitter

timber junco
#

How big is the box it spawns anyways

median basalt
#

And your head bone is made really, really small locally

#

Large, but it renders through everything

#

Had to make it fairly large because the box is always in a different position

timber junco
#

Did you ever update your leo model with that?

#

Or does it just have the plane in front of your face

median basalt
#

My old Leo model had a large circle parented to my chest

#

The new one has nothing right now

timber junco
#

Oh the new one doesn't have the stencil reveal at all anymore?

median basalt
#

No, not yet

#

I wanted to port the model first and get eye tracking working

timber junco
#

Ah

median basalt
#

But I'll probably use the same stencil revealer stuff on that one

timber junco
#

Oh I remember now

#

You didn't have eye tracking because why would you

median basalt
#

Yeah, the eyes were always closed

#

But the new one has proper eye bones etc, and it actually looks really good when the eyes are open

timber junco
#

The original MMD had no eyes at all?

median basalt
#

It was a shitty Deviantart edit

#

It had eyes but no bones

timber junco

Guys I don't think so good...

fading owl
#

Owo

#

since when can i use that

graceful abyss
#

hey guys, is importing a TDA the same as importing an MMD?

timber junco
#

It's just a different import option

safe prism
#

tda is mmd, no?

#

just one specific creator's base

lavish kraken
#

yeah tda is just a base mesh, like Montecore, or...idk

Could I get a desktop computer with intergraded graphics and play vrchat and buy a graphics card later? Or would that not work?

fresh tiger
#

oh god

fading owl
fresh tiger
#

why would you even want integrated kiba

#

Just get the gpu

#

so you can actually do VRChat the way it was meant to be

#

in VR

#

i shiggy diggy

#

IN fact

#

build a desktop computer

#

what are you, a console pleb

vocal shard
#

consoles

#

Lmao

lavish kraken
#

@viral stratus how'd your GW2 avatar turn out or haven't you rigged it yet?

#

Ah

fresh tiger
#

explain yourself kiba

#

you're doing the internet equivalent of stuttering

fading owl
#

lmao

spice patrol
#

I'm ordering a custom computer, was gonna then buy a better icore and then buy graphics card later lol

fresh tiger
#

ordering a custom

#

what do you mean

#

so you're ordering a prebuilt

fading owl
#

Theres companies that build one from the shit you want them to put in there

fresh tiger
#

and paying $100+ to get it assembled

#

instead of assembling it yourself and getting separate warranties on each part

#

possibly for cheaper

timber junco
#

Holding off until the new GPUs come out in possibly like 2 months is a pretty good idea

spice patrol
#

Assessment is free for me cuz it's from a friend lol

timber junco
#

What cpu were you thinking about anyways

#

Pretty sure the AMD chips have better integrated graphics when they have them

#

(A lot of the ryzen chips have no integrated gpu)

fading owl
#

pft amd

#

๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป

timber junco
#

pft

spice patrol
#

I honestly know nothing about AMD I just know it's cheaper

timber junco
#

What cpu were you thinking of anyways

spice patrol
#

Ether the newest. I 5 or like whatever I 7 that i can find in the store lol

timber junco
#

Looks like you should expect about 30fps on low settings with most games on those

#

With the integrated graphics

spice patrol
#

Which is why I was wondering if I could just get intergraded graphics and use that untill I buy a gpu. I'm only playing on desktop correctly

#

Ah well that's better then 12 lol

timber junco
#

vrchat can get pretty heavy graphically because of shittily optimized maps/avatars

#

I'd say it's probably passable for a little while

#

The next series of nvidia GPUs is supposedly hitting in about 2 months and if the performance jump is as big as last time it's definitely worth the wait

umbral reef
#

Just throwing whatever in a pc wont make it better...
Also most price - quallity products are lower end things so depending what you want to do with it

spice patrol
#

Can I even put a gpu in a intergraded desktop computer? Cuz I normally get laptops but don't want another xD

timber junco
#

If you have a case that supports it it'll be fine

umbral reef
#

Fully depends

timber junco
#

Just make sure you have a powerful enough PSU to support the upgrade to dedicated graphics

graceful abyss
#

if the TDA is missing bones, will it not work?

umbral reef
#

TDA

#

?

timber junco
#

If you have a model without bones, you'll have to rig it

graceful abyss
#

darn, so having to figure out how to rig as well @_@

timber junco
#

unless you don't want it to be able to move at all

umbral reef
#

Oww the format TDA
Well you gotta rig it yourself then yes, there are tutorials on how to do it or websites that can do a shitty for you

timber junco
#

Yeah you could put it through mixamo and see how well it ends up

graceful abyss
#

if your going to use motion trackers, a good rig is better right?

timber junco
#

A good rig is always better

umbral reef
#

Motion trackers as in?

#

Just vr or fully body

graceful abyss
#

vr with added foot and waist tracker

spice patrol
#

Are ppl still useing that older unity to upload avatars or are you able to use newer ones now?

umbral reef
#

So full body tracking
Then having a shoddy rigged avatar aint recomended

timber junco
#

You HAVE to use the unity version specified on the site

umbral reef
#

@spice patrol New one always worked for me ๐Ÿคท
Im still fairly sure that the people complaining it wont upload had it imported it wrong or badly

spice patrol
#

I know when I tried useing the old one it would crash Everytime I tried to upload a avatar..

#

So idk if I should update or something

#

It's unity 5.6.3p1 that you're supposed to use right?

umbral reef
#

Jup

tacit plank
#

Ye

umbral reef
#

Also-- if its failing wiht an unsupported older SDK version

#

Why are you not updating...

tacit plank
#

fair warning: If you have an older Visual Studio installed, the newer one that Unity wants to install can brick it

#

Happened to me, VS2012 crashes on loading anything

spice patrol
#

I had used the SDK 2018.05.04.09.53 when it first came out

graceful abyss
#

so is 4 joint spots for the spine rig enough or do I need more? Tutorial is saying 4 should be fine

#

& after I rig it all, do I need to animate it as well or is that not required?

timber junco
#

No animation required

#

Unless you want custom animation

#

(which won't work in full body anyways)

graceful abyss
#

ah okay, phew, one less step, how about the spine joins (or most of the body joints) should I try to have many or few?

median basalt
#

Joints? You mean bones?

timber junco
#

I'm pretty sure with rigify you can get a bone setup that's perfect for humanoid models in unity

median basalt
#

VRChat only supports Hips->Spine->Chest->Neck->Head

graceful abyss
#

well the connecting parts of the bones

median basalt
#

Rigify is too many bones actually

timber junco
#

Is it?

median basalt
#

You just need hips, spine, chest, neck, head. Anything else in that hierarchy will be useless.

#

Yeah, rigify and mixamo have an extra bone

#

Allows you to map Upper Chest, but VRChat does not support that at all.

#

So for Mixamo rigs, you usually have an unmapped bone below the chest slot

timber junco
#

Yeah you just need to unbind that one on the import settings

graceful abyss
#

but for full body tracking, dont you need more?

median basalt
#

No

#

It's the same for desktop, FBT and regular VR

timber junco
#

You just need a proper humanoid rig

gritty knoll
#

oi

median basalt
#

Avoid mapping the toe bones too

timber junco
#

toe bones are the devil

graceful abyss
#

does anyone have an example to show?

#

like a picture of a properly mapped body rig for fullbody vr tracking

#

(thats not overdone like the whole toe bones thing haha)

timber junco
#

It's no separate toes for each bone if that's what you think
