if someone really cares for getting a model then that person propably will try a cache rip
cus everything else is simply just temporary anyway
yeah if you get your avatar stolen the absolute best thing you can do is ignore them. do not react at all. don't even look at them. mute/block them if you want, and record them if you want to report them, but absolutely do not get angry or upset, best to say nothing at all. they don't give a crap about your avatar, they want a reaction, don't give them one, and they will find the avatars useless and replace it with someone else's.
wow
upload it public and put it on a pedistal lol
its not the same
i have to await the moment it suddenly appears infront of my eyes without notice
instead of asking me like a cival person and telling me what i was saying offended them i got kicked wtf and to top it off i was pnly singing a christmas song.. at any time they could have asked me to stop
wow
well i mean, this is the internet. and whoever owns the instance is god. they can kick for no reason at all if they want to :V
yeah you can get kicked for doing nothing wrong, they could just not want you there
stick with public instances so you'd have to be votekicked instead
What do I do if my ping for some reason keeps going to 6000?
and if someone you don't know drops a portal don't go in it unless you're sure they are ok with it; especially if its friends only and you are not their friend, quick way to get yourself kicked
well even if it's public if the owner of the world is there they can kick ANYONE
Well yeah but still it can happen
Anyway
Ping keeps getting 6000
Idk what to do
On my own it's 120 to 90 but with people it's wayyyy up there
Okay im honestly about to be done with vrchat
All these problems and issues always happening and only with this game
my vive trackers work perfectly but i notice my head tracking studders/ shakes a lot in a mirror which does not happen without fullbody, any idea what causes it?
@hexed lily
😃 👋🏼
anyone know how long it takes to be able to upload custom avatars
i am about to make like 3 different accounts and just play on the one thats get acess first
»THE PASTA«
“Being allowed to upload is based on reaching a certain trust score which's exact algorithm is unknown to prevent exploitation.”
“You presumably need to play the game in a normal manner, walking around, meeting people and also making some friends. Idling wont help.”
“According to many responses in this discord the typical time it takes seems to be between 20-40 hours but big exceptions are possible.”
“Make sure you are not logged in to your steam account by accident because you will be treated as a guest”
“Also make sure that you don't enter your Vrchat account through Steam”
“Play the game until you get a notification or e-mail.”
http://help.vrchat.com/knowledge_base/topics/why-cant-i-upload-avatars-or-worlds-yet
Just be active for a day or two
cool
did anybody else got shutdown?
my sister hijacked my laptop im back and ima try the modeling again
guys
I need my shoes to be selected individually
how do I select two things at the same time?
guys I cant import my hoodie.
its a pmx fle...
I got em both
cats plugin wont import the hoodie doe
nvm got it to import the pmd
it came with pmx and pmd
the hoodie is like 3x smaller than the body xD
my blender froze...
it UNFROZE 😄
nmv
nvm
the hoodie is breaking my blender.
oh damn
so many tis and faces.
tris and face
ITS BREAKING MY BLENDER CRAP
waduhek
nailed it its gone
you know, I've always wondered
what's the deal with seeing the number of people that's in a server
then actually joining the server and the numbers far less then was previously shown
sorry man, I don't even know what that is
never made an avatar, sorry
lol
best of luck
I expect a lot of cool avatars

but still
can only explain this issue to me?
It'd be appreciated
lol you know when you join a server, it says it has like 10 people active, but when you join theirs only like 1? I was wonder why that happens or if it can be fixed lol
I’ll post in vr pics
i cant find a freaking hoodie
may I ask why its so hard to find a hoodie in deviant arts like everything but a hoodie is ther
Maybe it's not updated, maybe somebody blocked you, or maybe you're looking at the total amount of players across all instances rather than just one instance
@kindred prairie try googling the words "mmd Hoodie dl" into google images you should find something.
usually when i look for something i google it in images.
i emailed support about vrchat not starting and they told me to check if my sdk was updated 
15 tris poggers
I got another 4k free 😄
lol
ok ima watch the rest of the mega tutorial now.
didnt have to decimate a thing 😛
what about materials tho
?
wait why did it do the toungue
I did this one 😄
not 😛
ikd about materials lol
but oh well
if I need qanything else Ill do it and ill decimate if needed dont worry about it xD
polys dont really matter but materials do
inb4 like 50 draw calls
I have played 3 hours of VRchat and I want to import some of my avatars. When can I do this? I know I have to wait sometime.
literally just browse the web
if you dont want to browse
play
add friends
hop worlds
have fun
itll unlock eventually
Alright, will do. Thanks
I am currently getting cubd shaders to import
hey there is a guy in the great pug world crashing peoples games i have a screen shot of his profile. who can i show this to
@stark gust #moderation-reports
tell us his name so we can write him a strongly worded email 👀
@ivory folio you can submit his email to rescam :3
HOW WILL IP BE ADDRESSED IN THE FUTURE OF VRCHAT?
I think by IP they mean Intellectual Property, as in copyrighted things.
CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL MY DUDES 😎
But yeah, the future of IP in vrchat is one hell of a question that's been asked many times and is as hard to answer for this case as it is for the rest of the internet.
IS THE LGPL AND GPL ENOUGH FOR OPEN SOURCED MODELS?
DO INTERNATIONAL LAWS APPLY TO CREATORS OF DIFFERENT COUNTRIES?
Yeah, less capslock please. It sounds like you're shouting in my mind 😱
However, to the best of my understanding, as VRChat is based in the USA (california specifically I believe) they're subject to US copyright law, which the L/GPL make use of.
When you say is the L/GPL enough for open sourced models, what exactly do you mean by that?
No not necessarily
Like, if you would have copy an asset from an American and have it in China, probably not, no
But, yeah since the game is based in the US, it does need to follow us law
We're both still correct though, since vrchat are the ones hosting the content- yeah that's what I was implying.
When it comes down to it, it's just people yelling at eachother for having electric signals stored in a specific order
good thing the vote got pushed back till september, save for a little bit. just hope he bill dies completely
@shy nest u from EU?
no
You could say the way that information and communication works is incompatible with what the government wants
Luckily, the law is completely unrealistic. They will keep reapplying it until they get it through, but nobody will be able to scan all user content
the bill is stupid because nothing like they want exists in the capacity they want it
youtube has content id but that sucks ass 50% of the time
Saying youtube's system works the other 50% is being too generous. Youtube's system is atrociously bad.
The part im concerned about are my memes
None of Youtubes algorithms are anything to write home about. Good thinks that "Best fidget spinner mods 2018.mp4" is related to whatever Unity tutorial I'm watching.
WHO WILL BE THE ARBITRATOR OF THE DIGITAL AGE?
IF IT IS CONTEXT DEPENDENT HOW MUCH WILL IT BE, HOW IS CONTEXT FIGURED?
IF MULTIPLE PEOPLE TAKE CREDIT FOR ONE MODEL OR WORLD IS IT WRONG FOR OF THEM TO TAKE CREDIT?
jesus dude turn off capslock
memes are considered an intellectual creation, kind o
finally sth thats not a question from you
eh
The laws are not even properly defined
yeah, that's why I'm here, to talk about it before it becomes a problem.
The world is managed by retards, I just try to make the best of it
I mean to start the discussion, there's music, which contains large derivative works, and software, that also includes large complex interwoven and interdependencies,
and also books, and papers, and other intellectual works.
Thats why they pushed it back, they said that they cant just wave sth like that through
fortunately
People can't even manage the current laws
But nowhere has it been where an intellectual creation be so associated with someone's presence that they are literally know by that piece of knowledge.
saw that recently svel, im gonna wait till they get sent out and people review em
dont want some plastic paperweight if they're shit
WHERE DO WE DRAW THE LINE BETWEEN COPYING SOMETHING, AND HAVING IT BE IT'S OWN THING?
(my questions are in capital to draw the emphasis)
249 is really cheap
yeah.
almost half of what I paid for my rift
actually thats 249usd so like 336aud
over half of what I paid for my rift
can probably see now why im waiting
@vocal shard is it universally or only for vive / rift
all 3
more preferable on the vive though, using a tracker on the back instead of the controllers looks and probably feels much less awkward

do they have haptic feedback?
ye
(Here I am asking questions about hardware, I clearly can't afford.)
"In order to accomplish rich immersion, haptic feedback is applied to each fingertip for tactile interactions."
I'm starting to get weary about VR TBH, maybe it's not the direction to take an isolationist immersion approach
However I have seen many human connections form, through this medium and am happy about that.
^ I can agree with this, however, I've seen a lot of connections being made even in those without any virtual reality gear. While they may not seem natural based around the nature of vrc, this game brings people together all the same.
@ivory folio it's Big Ounces
I do feel though that vr has a line that it may be coming close to crossing. Full body tracking seems like a little too much for some people, and it seems to make some other players feel less comfortable around someone who uses it when they themselves lack the equipment.
@foggy cloak itll only get worse with fingertracking and fullbody suits
cuz i really want that but dont have the money for it
there is time before people can even think of being able to afford a full tracking suit
I like the idea behind it, but only the idea. I can't see it being very good in games like vrc when it comes to actual 100% full body
So even if I use my Steam account or VRChat account I still can't stay on the game for even 10 minutes without it freezing and logging me out then taking be back to the Hub. I'll join a world for a few seconds and walk around then everyone disappears and the vrchat logo pops up and says it's logging me in.
Any fix?
Verifying the game files could be a start, as well as deleting the cache.
I've done both ;o;
I haven't run into any real problems yet, so I can't help too much..
Maybe it's a firewall issue? I mean, normally if that were the case, you couldn't run the game at all, but there might be a conflict somewhere
Check your AV or settings
Antivirus, sorry lol
Hold up, did you copy/paste an issue posted in the steam community? That's almost word for word with something I just read, but posted back in January...
@graceful vigil the real problem is thinking that IP rely only on Local laws, which is wrong and false, there are treaties between countries when it comes to IPs. Sound like some never heard of WIPO for example.
Yes
I mean it's the same exact problem I'm having so
Why reword it
@foggy cloak
Eh, I don't know what to do. I really want to play this game ;o;
And your internet is fine I'm assuming?
Walk into public world with Sketchu and a few others and some dickwash named DigitalResonance steals her avatar right in front of her and starts talking shit to her right there
Jesus Christ the protection on this game is shit at the moment
at the moment? Been always the same
Just use #moderation-reports
and tada they will die off slowly
Already used moderation support and no that doesn't work either, lol they can ban people all they want and all they do is just change their hardware id or use a vpn
Ingame reporting or requesting for mods its as useless as it can be with current user counts
So just use the #moderation-reports as i said...
Ow i thought you meant the ingame report thingy
Rip the ingame button
but it doesn't work now lmfao, they have such a small team and it probably gets spammed all the time
They probably turned it off
most likely
Poor button
have you tried the IPv6 fix that has been linked here a few times? @tough mesa
hmm not sure the IPv6 have something to do with it
do you have enough space left on your HD?
Yeah
I have a router
And it works
Just not VR Chat
I have an idea, what if I buy an Ethernet cable will that like give me better internet
doesn't say anything about the kind @tough mesa, did you cleaned your cache too? did you restart?
Based on completely different problems with completely different things, I'd say at least give the ipv6 fix a try.
I can't use certain things on my phone if I have dual ip mode turned on (ipv4 and ipv6) but switching to just ipv4 and everything works correctly.
Is there anyway to see friends on the vrchatnet
https://medium.com/@JockDaRock/disabling-ipv6-on-network-adapter-windows-10-5fad010bca75
For windows 10
If some things stop working right you may need to re-enable ipv6, but I don't think many things even fully use it yet.
And best to use https://1.1.1.1/?utm_referrer=https://www.google.nl/ imo
i understand Gallium but messing with the IP stack of the client could open the door to other problem :\ . V4-V6 for now should be managed flawlessly by the router itself (assuming the router is not too old).
Well normally if you use the ISP router it auto connect to the ISP's dns server
Its why i always suggest using cloudfare or google-- They are faster and depending where you live even more safe
And the fail rate on them is insanely low
About the DNS issue, i still do not beleive it's an issue, it's cached, it does not explain the phenomenon HatsuneMiku suffer.
to me it's smells connexion issues
Phenomenon HatsuneMiku I like that UwU
Yeah maybe
Although every other game works well
I remember playing GTA v online smoothly with no connection problems
yes but all are not as demanding
Or Overwatch
Okay, so should I buy like an Ethernet cable?
Someone told me it does something
you should first test it if you can
Wait first test what
google? "how to test my connexion?"
you did it but yet do not know how? hmmm
I've already tested my connection, I don't know how to do any other things you're saying though
these are some ways to test your connexion
ok let's try something, just answer by yes or no, ok?
yes.
not you :P
Okay
yes.
are you the only one using the link? - edit
What link
Internet
I play vr chat at night when my parents are asleep so I'm the only one that uses it when I'm on vr
But I guess no
does your issue happen all day long or only during some hours of the day?
yes or no 🤔
hmmm hard to say yes or no on this one XD
Fine, no
whatever say something
And yes all day
ok
another 3rd party hardware connected to the internet? (TV, cellphones - how many, Fridge....)
When you play VRchat, nothing else is turning in the background? (ex: browser opened on youtube, downloading stuff etc)
6 phones?
I have steam open and discord
4 phones 2 tv's
Wait no they are off
Uh
4 phones
I keep my chrome closed because I try to reduce lag as much as possible
If you can, try to get yourself ethernet
Eliminates Wi-Fi so you don't have to worry too much about bandwidth
And sharing
That's what I want to try to do, but idk how that works
and all that on a 25mbps or less plan, correct?
Yes
i assume
Holy hell, who do you have?
here you go
:c
Who is your ISP?
I'm only 17 idk what that stuff is :c
ATT2
Att
Okay, that's kind of weird to get 25 megabits per second through AT & T
But okay
And, your computer. It's rigged through Wi-Fi at the moment right?
Yes
now do a simple test, disconnect everything connected but your own PC (phones TV whatever), restart your pc and start Vrchat alone and see how it goes. If it's ok, you know the problem, if not, hmm we'll see
If your house doesn't have ethernet already, heres a little piece of equipment that could help you out
Essentially, it sends your internet through the power line of your house
So, it's like ethernet. But it's not ethernet
My 200mbps gets reduced down to like 50
Or 75 on a good day
But, it's a good work around if you don't have ethernet installed in your house already
Can I get that at best buy
Is it not smarter to ask what he is using? 2.4h or other
And I just plug this on my router?
As that can also make a big diffrence
won't change the amount of network collisions/errors happening in his network or the bandwidth issues @tranquil vortex
She ;w;
The vrchatnet website doesn’t even show friends online
chances are the router is ok
And ATT isn't fiber internet right
I don't think so
try what i told you and you'll figure it out
a phone alone can suck 1/10 of you bandwidth for a short periode of time...
add 4 of them, add a tablet 2 TV and whatever and your in for trouble
So if this is the case, and I wanted to play the game I have to have all these things off?
Possible
Okay
Or find out if there's a 5Ghz line available
i'm talking ISP bandwidth not the lan one
It's true. VRChat is a bandwidth hog.
I also don't have a graphics card btw, like my PC is shity
Voice chat can gobble up on your bandwidth on it's own too!
@tough mesa it doesn't help for sure
That won't help
I know, sorry
When I had my other internet everything worked fine, I was able to play the game perfectly
I might just get a new internet thingy or upgrade it
@warped thorn they've reduced the bitrate though ;)
Oof
I never thought voice chat was a big consumer
I always felt like it was more of the updates the game had to do because character movement
voice chat is awful in vrc
There is always worst :P than uspeak, it's okay
it could be teamspeak
you're not supposed to use it with a potato pc and a dialup internet ^^
VC is always awefully optimized within games if they want to make minium delay
Project cars in VR is pretty dope
there are games that just pick for a ~1 second delay when speaking (a minimum delay) just to make things go smooth(er)
And in VRC case... Id expect it to be optimized honstly but it still takes a lot of CPU then..
But if you also throw the tracking on it and then everything else also? with one core?...
For as long as VRCs been out, you think it'd be a little more optimized
Maybe they just expect everyone to have the minimum standards for VR
Because steamVR
Well if your below the minimum specs from the game you imo should not complain if it laggs...
they do not pretend it to be a release candidat Valleybars, still an Alpha/beta stage, so
If your above it like most with Vr and then lagg... Well...
Well to be honest, VRC doesn't need crazy specs to run
Unless you're using VR
Desktop mode runs like any other unity game
at least it's not yandere simulator with its optimization
which is the target, "VR" chat :P
run the android version on your PC and you'll be more than ok :P
what? :)
Is there a way to set a partical limiter for like the game
Iv been crashed 3 times today already
you need to enable the limiter @worn slate you'll find a link and a howto in #announcements
Sweet ill do that now, thanks
Dose it lower the chance though
not sure but it's a start right
And if you get crashed-- do not reboot the game but instead get the output log first
submit it towards moderation@vrchat.com with as much information as you know and then play further with them about to be banned 
!outputlog
You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat named vrchat;outputlog.txt
And it should if you set it up right--
In theory, yes. Assuming the offending user is abusing particle systems in order to crash vrchat.
^ As to why i said not all odds but most odds of being crashed
Oh i take screen shots of the people that do it, but ill start coppying logs
I talked to some crashers, they said that noone they know uses particle systems anymore
Report them first
when they'll figure out the particles is not the way to make ppl rage anymore, they'll switch to something else
And there are groups that still do
I only report soneone if they crash me / get on my nerves
If they have the stuff and leave me alone its none of my business
If it's clear someone is causing other user's clients to crash, or causes you to crash, here's what to do:
If vrchat has crashed, leave it closed.
Grab your output log
send an email to moderation@vrchat.com and attach the log to the email. Mention any relevant usernames.
Now you're free to start vrchat again.
!outputlog
You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat named vrchat;outputlog.txt
I think for now on ima just record all my game play
shadowplay have an instant replay, recording only the last x minutes if i'm not wrong, could be helpful
yes a shame
That's also a good idea. Any system that constantly records and keeps x minutes can be very useful in case of moderation-related incidents.
Plus it's also a great way to save those lovely memories if your friends acting like total idiots. 😄
yes clearly, i don't know if someone else did it already appart from Nvidia, maybe some free or opensource gems out there? The best would be an OBS plugin, i'll check
I believe OBS does have such a feature too.
sad :\
Yep, it's called the Replay Buffer.
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-classic-how-to-use-the-replay-buffer.103/
oh so we installing black boxes now 
always was an option :), it saves space with this method
Vrchat developer update: we have added a black box feature that records the last 5 minutes of gameplay in the native headset resolution.
This feature can be enabled by opening the in game menu and checking "black box" in the settings.
lol
it would be a user choice, so yeah why not :P, but i'm not sure about the storage cost for such a solution ;)
unless you do it client side hmm (for the storage i mean)
well i doesn't need to be super hi bit rate or even hi fps, witch will cut on the storage cost
true
but that will stress the processor even more witch potato PCs really dont need more of 
no doubt about that, as long there is an opt-in opt-out it's not really an issue i guess
using obs while running vrchat makes my entire pc run at 1 fps
a black box incorporated would be easier on potato systems
Potato PC :D
because the cpu doesnt have to split the effort between two intrusive apps
oh and it could even stop rendering stuff entirely 
^
tried to record my vrc to show people how shitty it is
2 minutes of the exact same frame
choppy and extremely low quality too
Vrchat powerpoint edition?
js
make it incorporated
Make it upload server side so only you can access your records
like GenTool

that would be a lot of stress on vrc servers
clearly
the recording should be client side
they already have the stress of being accessed by script kiddies
Bandwidth wise too
^
but it would be space intensive too
not everyone has a 1tb ssd
or an ssd
or a 200 gb hdd
YOU GET THE POINT
200gb 
reserve 1Gb more than reasonable, when you think Vrchat used more than "no limit" storage before
move it ^^
how the fuck
symlink
Symlinks are beautiful
so if it were to be server side 999 players would fit on a 1tb SSD
Linux fan @ocean bramble ?
umm more peps
isn't linux literally MsDos
@thorny totem No, works on Windows as well
Linux/Unix (MacOSX for ex ;) )@vocal shard
yes i know, but people who love symlinks are often Linux fans, stupid thought though ;) @ocean bramble
https://imgur.com/ov5QsX0
huehue
bad boy XD
i have 3 of them :P (one being a phone)
pentesting station only though
rip neighborhood wifi
but I still don't know what a symlink is tho
im replacing photos, real stuff 
injection
ok bad boy indeed =P
I use a symlink to program cats on Blender 2.79 and 2.8 simultaneously
synbolic links -> you physically move a folder in a differente place/drive and replace it by a "shortcut" symbolic link, the system see the shortcurt as if it was the folder itself (transparent for the system) @vocal shard
oh yeah did that to my vrc cache folder
in a nutshell
snot sure if it works properly tho 
whatever the rig @vocal shard even your PC can do it
command lines
I'll just uninstall vrchat and install it in my new library
also won't it take a fuckton of cpu
i got my laptop taken away so I'll try it some other time
sure
if it burns, melts and explodes (in that order) then dont blame me tho
it won't, the worst thing that could happen is the game or app stop working, in that case just delete the symlink and move the folder back (some reg keys also if you do it manually) / or use the interface to revert it @vocal shard
not responding 
you know I'm not gonna risk it
i had another 2001 pc that combusted, melted and exploded (in that order)
normally no
explains
Am I the only one having issues launching VRC? Already, uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted steam and my comp and still won't launch
the hackers holy graal GPUs, there is some exploits out there, but limited

ok error 32 presumably because the driver was running in the background witch stopped the transfer operation
nothing to worry about
@raven stump any errors?
none. just doesn't respond when launched. Freezes at white screen
what kind of pc/graphic card?
well it worked before right ?
I can run it, 900+ hours. this is just the first time I've had this
someone said to try to clear cache so I'm going to try that first
have you tried what's in here #vrchat-support
wait a clean install doesn't delete the cache?
cache most likely, but who knows
restart your pc

again? 
yes
oh god nononononon
what?
windows defender got a false positive on the steam mover
really?
now its trying to delete it
nooo my filesss!!
...yeah no comments
thats why i have the windows defender disabled 😄
if you want the command line just ask though
doesnt it have a quarantine or sth like that?
nop
wow, screw the defender
it just deletes it
it has a "restore function"
but that fuks the program into oblivion
this is like, my house is dirty, better go buy a new one
yeah life saver for some even if it restrict a lot, better be annoyed than sorry if you're not a poweruser
i actually dont want to know how many bits get corrupted by restoring 😄
@thorny totem ive used avira for so damn long and its just been helpful
a few ads in my right lower corner and thats about it
nah i'm not using this things :P
o damit i cant find the god dam disable option
ids and statefull packets scanning and life become easy (put a box between you and the world and voila)
When I first join in everything loads fine but once people change or new people join new avatars don't load
something to do with your cache i suppose test this #vrchat-support
Oh hai Chipp! Long time no see
Oh...
um ill follow that long list of instructions and if that won't work I'll send an email I guess
yes
https://imgur.com/JaqYAkD
finally
What about sending an email first?
The issue is that it's almost like vrchat just shuts off my internet connection when I play 🤷
When in a room, it's like I have no internet connection
can't open/change chrome and steam tabs, send messages in discord etc
I can still talk to people in vrchat and see new people joining a world but then avatars don't load
too much traffic by vrc?
Oculus? Vive? @raven stump again which graphic card again?
Vive, 1050, settings: Desktop low
drivers ver? @raven stump
one sec
Elevator music can be heard 

@stable aurora do you have enough HDD space?
397.93
I have no idea what that means :p
feeding developers
@raven stump try with the last set of drivers? just a test
@stable aurora do u have space on your drive?
sorry my keyboard is lagging on mobile
yep
i don't think the issue is that my cache is too full or something like that
yep meaning? how much? @stable aurora
when using vrc nothing else works
36 gb free in my C drive
but that's the dl speed most likely
ok fine indeed
825 in my D drive which is where I believe I installed vrchat
If only I could donate some of that empty space to my C drive
I'm physically hurt
lul 1 Tb is smol
you cleaned your cache then restarted your PC just after right? @stable aurora
1tb
small
it seems I have the connection issue still
lemme guess you also have unlimited Wi-Fi
I'm in the hub and I can't open chrome tabs or switch
LAN
yep
and 5 cutting edge pcs
nah
my pcs alright
i just have the space
and yes, nowadays 1 TB is literally small
which you spent money that could feed a nation on
probably 🤷🏻
I imagine you'd need quite a bit of space if you were creating avatars and stuff
I'd be fine with like 300 gb tbh
that's why I hate anyone with a 1tb drive
i create avatars with only 200gb
SSD of course
on my entire pc
mine still works fine https://imgur.com/sC9Ua3V
hdd
i dont create avatars only lul?
i play fucking games
do you know how big some of em are
dem drive names tho 😂
please don't say you're one of those people who spend thousands in steam sale
thanks
no, i spend thousands outside of steam sales

like
Yee
same?
yeet
wait i haven't launched vrc yet
1 sec imma get off my guitar chair this thing isn't comfortable
make some coffee since you're at it :P

ty
nope instantly dead
initial avatars loaded, now i can't open tabs again
ya new avatars aren't loading either
could you do a steam files integrity check?
should i close the game before doing the check
yes
ok 1 file failed to be validated and will be re-acquired
lets check if that was the issue
ok
It's an F
this time the game couldn't even load all the avatars in time
Guess I'll send an email
hmm yes good idea
appreciate you trying to help though kane 🙏
thing i would still do in the mean time, is to delete the cache again and restart once more, since a file was corrupted for some reason
but that's just me eh ;)
yw
is the support team usually responsive
or will it take a couple days for a response
can't say never tested
hmmm interesting note my connection seems to work
as i load up a world
perfectly fine
is there perhaps a list of people, who intentionally crash others?
no, because if vrc knows theyre doing it theyll be banned 😂
i know some community servers do though
well, i have done 2 reports
the loli army discord has a big list of users i think
i think at this point only your logs could show the reason assuming you did the minimal required cleaning cache + filescheck + reboot @stable aurora
and today i found 4 more people
annoying pink penguin form with text: NO ANIME and playing loud music
music that greates sort of sound waves
this is real funky man
The issue isn't happening right now?
I'm testing out a bunch of things
ok
did a 2nd clear and check
@coral steppe i met someone who crashed me and played minecraft music earrape
maybe it only starts when i load into public worlds
though it wasn't happening in the hub earlier
nah wouldn't make sense, it's certainly just fixed :)
a lot of annoying people, a lot
ok
definitely not fixed
:s
Idk it's like sometimes when I enter certain worlds it just starts happening
which one?
pug
is it crashing avatars?
that just kill my connection when I try and load them in
could be
I'll send a ticket anyways
is it all pug instances or a particular one?
I have no clue
the connection issue has happened to me in the past in different worlds
so I assume it's not actually specific avatars but rather maybe a corrupted file that only starts acting up when I try and load new avatars maybe 🤷
yes definitely a cache issue, but why i can't point it like that
Does anyone know if the OpenVRInput fix for joystick movement was fixed? Or another method to get full movement with the joysticks? On wmr.
Please @ me or dm me. Have to go back to work
Are video temp files still stored in the History.IE5?
video temp files?
Prior to the recent update, any world that streamed videos would just annihilate my hard drive
oh you mean the youtube_downloader_dl
i avoid any world that streams anything or plays music so idk
but video temp files don't last outside the instance do they?
sweats while thinking of the almost full C drive
I know they did before the update
I spend a lot of time in one and I had 40g of temps, a friend had 80g
well
going into any world that has a video screen made the entire world nothing but a black screen for me and about 17 or 23 youtube_downloader_dl processes in task manager
vrchat stop coddling streamers and fix your game
blaming vrchat devs for world creators that implement tons of videos 
they shouldn't make the youtube_downloader_dl be able to start another instance of itself while the first one is unresponsive
There's official worlds with videos, even looping one video would fill
they could limit it to 1 per video screen but I get 28
yes the number gets higher by the minute
the whole way the youtube_dl works makes me feel it was made by a kid in gamemaker
"instance not working? lol just start another one
the other one not working? let's start another one!"
I doubt most users know a out the temps
i would be happy if they made the reboot instance have a killswitch
to terminate the first one
and not boost my cpu to 170% while it's already at 100% in empty worlds
vrchat boasts about their game being able to run even on a toaster
yet they keep making it more gravitated to people with i9s and 1080tis
i would be satisfied if they tell us they're optimizing the game or admit they are aware of bugs and are working on them
but all im seeing is them licking twitch's shoes
aha...
i wouldn't mind if it takes a year
i just want to hear "we are aware of optimization issues and are working on them" in one of those developer updates
why especially in one of the updates?
first of. it shold be a given and common sense
instead of "we put a new feature that will break your already weak system! yeah!"
then real focus on optimization is a thing done in the beta state
the alpha stage is where features are boosted
while in beta its about polishing the features and optimizing
then why aren't they adding the optimizing from the beta in the alpha
but they open it up for peopel who want to
sigh
it has some major flaws everything does
"alpha already"
do you even know how game dev works? Alpha is literally the first phase of dev
Alpha -> Beta -> Full Release
if everyone followed your logic they would've stopped playing when hackers got into vrchat
and you dont focus on major optimization and refactoring in alpha
^
when the next freature could literally break months of optimization work
^^^
but why add useless features when your system barely supports them
the biggest optimization we propably gonna see is unity 2018, before we reach beta state
@vocal shard this is an alpha stage game..
you don't find me downloading farcry 5 on a 2001 pc
even if ill upgrade it later
the game won't work anymore
you are complaining about optimization in an incomplete, unfinished early access game
im not complaining its not optimized
i want them to at least acknowledge it and not pretend it runs perfectly fine on any system
they do
who's pretending it runs perfect??
Where have they claimed that their game runs perfect?
the requirements are for minimum vr
they literally ripped them from the vive sale page are you kidding me
Those are placeholder since the game isn't finished yet. You can't plan for min specs if you don't have a finished game
then why put it in early access
you dont put something in early access unless it's semi done at least
thats not how EA works...
they barely have anything from what you two say
EA isnt a game dev
it's a scam company
they make fucking mobile games
@vocal shard https://youtu.be/sst9GZAZBDU?t=706
You mean like in the latest dev blog?
EA is paying to play early builds of the game while it's still in development.
When you download an EA game you are signing up to basically be a playtester
Oh come on Rin get real "why putting it in early access" the game works, it not like you only have picture to look at. And early access is the best way to debug and test a game when you are a small or indie studios hmmm
releases unfinished games
EA in this context = Early Access
The game work, will it work properly on a P4, no, was never the target
So you saying they don't acknowledge the performance issues is just false
Not the scum known as ElectronicArts
"Early access, also known as early funding, alpha-access, or paid-alpha, is a funding model in the video game industry by which consumers can pay for a game in the various development cycles (pre-alpha, alpha, beta) and obtain access to the pre-full release versions of the game, while the developer is able to use those funds to continue work on the game."
Early access is for unfinished games
Understandable, considering how shitty EA (game company) games are. :B
still
didn't they have enough time to fix those issues already
instead we get even more overload
the game is going to be unplayable on anything less than i8 soon
and then they lose their playerbase
way to go
do you play the last AAA game on a toaster?
Shifting goal posts now? 😛 They literally said in the video almost 2 weeks ago next releases will be better optimized
i dont play AAA
way to over exaggerate just because you have a shitty pc
not a pc
what we talkin about
then what, a laptop? thats even worse
they always say that
If I recall correctly a big issue is that it heavily relies on the processor and only uses 1 or 2 cores. I could be wrong about that though
they always say they will optimize better
no, you're right Brandon

but do they optimize?
So I'm in the upper end of VR capable systems (gtx1080, i7, etc) so I'm usually one of the last people who feel performance hits, but a lot of vrchat's 'performance problems' are almost 60% user-caused.
The game is pretty unoptimized and I don't see it changing
@rough pulsar then why doesn't the SDK enforce proper limits to stop users from lagging the game?
And it's definitely not just the users
The IK and voice systems are both stupidly heavy
Why do we have a 20k poly limit but no material limit
complain to the dev team not discord mods
disabling avatars makes my game run like magic
eheh i'll seat this one out and eat some popcorn :P

but no it's my problem I have a shitty pc lole
Even though the devs already know that materials cause lag and polys don't necessarily
wooh whats happening?
people spilling salt
A while back I was at a birthday party and we had the upside of 30 or so people in one world and even those of us on the weaker systems still had a fairly decent time because the world was properly built.
Rin if disabling avatars makes your game run like magic then thats a user issue, since ya know, avatars are user created and uploaded
nah Rin getting mad because Pentium 4...
i3
came to see whats been going on
first thing i see
SEVERAP PEOPLE ARE TYPING
not Pentium 4 that's my pc
Several people are typing... increases
Any body having the same issue I keep getting put in the ground and I can't do anything
@floral aspen not nesseseirly cus the default robot things dont have IK aswell
they're working on a new IK system, no?
no, but people run around with 20 mats and shit tons of dyna bones
yes, IK rework is in beta right now
Even with avatars blocked and in an optimized world, I get 10 FPS with 30 people around
The IK and voice systems alone are enough to break me
What's your PC specs @median basalt and are you in VR?
The IK rework will probably not alleviate any of the performance issues
For me any world that mr whiskers touches just freakin dies in terms of performance.
the IK rework is mainly for fixing FBT issues
@rough pulsar my CPU is fairly old, my GPU is good. I am in VR.
I know my CPU is the problem, but that doesn't change the fact that the game is unoptimized. I have friends who are Oculus users with stupidly good CPU's, and they drop to 25 in very populated worlds
@strong hedge it's either your model or your VR floor setting?
@strong hedge your aavatar Is below the map, raise it in the riggin screen or remove any gesture from the idle position
A small part of it is also that the game does not support the Oculus API natively which adds extra work for the CPU
will be comming back
games are usually optimized towards end of development. keeping a balance of doing optimization and introducing new features is not an easy task
some when this year
it's unoptimized because it's unfinished. If the game reaches 1.0 and is still unoptimized then you can complain
The 'unoptimized' is unity 5.6's inability to offload certain things from the main thread. Something unity 2017 and onwards can do.
also there is no multithreading support
