Thats fine

Tbh id rather want to talk someone abusing menus than people going "Ew, what is that avatar youre getting blocked"
( i was a pikachu ;- ; )

sharp condor
where do you even download the SDK anymore?
clicking the link on the site and logging in takes me to the new home thing
polar jasper
@sharp condor Click on the Download link in the navigation area
fading owl
😂
sharp condor
also
I've always made a new unity project when a new sdk came out
can I just import the new SDK's unity package in my existing project?
vocal shard
you can't just drag and drop it
you need to close unity
delete the vrcsdk folder directly through the file explorer
open your project
and then import the sdk package
meager karma
i know australian internet is cancer, but it never used to take me 7 seconds per 1% to download a map. is it just me?
lilac swan
Your connection to Amazon S3 (VRchat content servers) might be crapping out?
fading owl
big oof
meager karma
how would i find that out and fix if thats the issue
it took me 3 minutes to load the hub
vocal shard
Just a question, anyone seen the warnings that apparently people (not devs) are able to perm ban people and is there anything true about it?
it's bullshit
karmic talon
It's fake
vocal shard
some people use a modded client
to spam that message
kick people
and log you out
karmic talon
Yea apparently restarting fixes it
vocal shard
they cant ban you
lilac swan
I guess you could type in ping s3.amazonaws.com in the windows command promt and see what it says @meager karma
As for fixing it, I have no clue to be honest. Restarting router?
vocal shard
Alright, thank you guys :)
lilac swan
@vocal shard Hackers are currently able to fake ban messages and close your game client. They cannot permaban, or tempban. Only force you to exit.
vocal shard
which is annoying as hell but at least nothing permanent
meager karma
@lilac swan pinging that looks fine. no packet loss and decent ms
vocal shard
yo zarni, you can edit channels description ?
lilac swan
No, I cannot
vocal shard
fuq :/
lilac swan
What'd you have in mind?
vocal shard
just small modification to do in #development-advanced , it's still referencing #tutorials but that channel doesnt exist anymore
lilac swan
I'll bring it up to the admin team, they are the ones who have to change it. Thanks
ocean bramble
What, the tutorials channel is gone? 😮
vocal shard
lilac swan
Unfortunately so
vocal shard
yep since days ago
ocean bramble
But why though
ocean bramble
Still lots of relevant information
lilac swan
That, and it was "too messy" I believe. Forget the exact wording.
Personally I disagree with the removal, but yeah.
vocal shard
should make a big post
where you separate the videos into "avatars", "world", "blender"
ocean bramble
There was a post in there showing how to do manually do Visemes and eye tracking. I referenced that a lot
lilac swan
Imagine if discord had chat threads. Three posts, those you mentioned. In those threads just videos or links related to those. ☺
vocal shard
there was also a video showing how to take parts of a model to put on another model
kinda became obsolete with the CATS addon
ocean bramble
Well sure, but there are people who want to do it manually
Is there any replacement planned for the tutorials channel? 🤔
lilac swan
None I was told of, but I would be open to help push from my end to reopen the channel with up-to-date tutorials and guides
vocal shard
agreed
halcyon ingot
tutorials channel would be really useful
ocean bramble
Yea, we definitely should have a tutorial channel
halcyon ingot
It would be real useful for the folks who spend a lot of time answering questions in here
lilac swan
Officially, feedback and concerns should go to "hello@vrchat.com" 👀
Not telling you guys what to do but certainly wouldn't hurt this case at all
halcyon ingot
It would be a lot simpler to be able to direct users with many of the common questions asked to a channel with answers and tutorials tbh
lilac swan
Yup
fading owl
Therell still be people that dont get even the simplest explanations
halcyon ingot
There are always people like that
meager karma
tried resetting router. looked like it was better for a second but when i load another map i at 0.1% per second or 2
everything downloads find outside vrchat, but worlds and avatars are dialup
still lark
It's the client, I can download the map faster in chrome.

@placid umbra
How about those people getting banned by people with modded clients? I am still waiting on an official statement as I am absolutely terrified of even touching a public instance at this point. Just asking because I'd like to safely enjoy your game and have fun with my friends without risking a ban from a modder kiddy.
halcyon ingot
I too would like some sort of official response on this. It's a big issue at the moment and I haven't seen any staff properly acknowledge it.
placid umbra
Only official VRChat staff are able to actually ban users.
In the worst case scenario you'd be kicked and see a ban message, but you'd be able to log right back in.
idle beacon
Then shouldn't you tell people that rather than sitting in a corner as a team? The whole modder thing is getting out of hand and people, including myself are panicking because of the videos that show up everywhere. I think it'd be in your right interest as a team to let people know that the bans that are supposedly issued by these modders are nothing more but a bomb scare.
halcyon ingot
It would really help to have some sort of announcement about this aev, the community is pretty stirred up
I see a lot of unsure people asking what is going on
Atleast some sort of announcement that this is nothing to be concerned about. I get that any announcement may make things look more serious than they are if they are to warrant an announcement.
placid umbra
I understand that, it's something being worked on ASAP. Weekends are always tough for issues like this, I've been letting people know in chat and over email wherever possible.
halcyon ingot
Thanks for an actual response, it's really appreciated.
placid umbra
halcyon ingot
idle beacon
Thank you for responding so quickly and good luck with the whole ordeal.
fading owl
So... you cannot be banned 100%
placid umbra
The team works hard on security but issues do come up occasionally, thanks for understanding.
vocal shard
we understand, no worries, shit happen
but it's cool when we have an official statement on the issue
sudden nacelle
Dev attention aquired 
placid umbra
You will only be genuinely banned if the ban comes from a VRChat staff member.
vocal shard
so we at least know that you are looking at it
halcyon ingot
We will do our best to spread the word aev
little rampart
the thing is, it doesnt matter if its a ban or a crash, neither of those should happen, i dont mean to be rude, but you got some serious security issues...
opaque remnant
fairly sure they are aware
little rampart
i feel bad for complaining, after all, im not paying to play this wonderful game so i have no right to ask them for improvements
but if they want to improve something, instead of new features, they need to focus on security
opaque remnant
it would probably be better to email them if you have direct feedback
earnest ermine
you could buy the 400 dollar dlc that's technically paying
little rampart
in that case i might be a bit more "aggresive" with my demand of security
vocal shard
@little rampart every game got some security issue you know
vrchat is no different
and no actual harm can come to you
little rampart
some, but this is ridiculous, im sorry if someone gets hurt by that
inner cape
Y'all are wrong I'm literally shaking
opaque remnant
this particular issue is bad timing, since it happened during the weekend, and it's still night time for the devs
halcyon ingot
@inner cape Who are you, hackspanner?
little rampart
vrchat has had issues since there has been people with intent to harm...
and that shouldnt have happened in first place
halcyon ingot
What a lad

inner cape
Some group I guess
umbral reef
You guys do realize this is a early access game that is far from done
The dev team isn't massive and they can't "just get more"
The userboom brought a lot of easy tools that can abuse things sadly and the devs can not prepare for that
pseudo dawn
Well I see everyone freaking out here. Someone in a Discord group showed some videos of people acquiring dev tools.
little rampart
i understand that, thats other of the reasons why im not "agresive"
pseudo dawn
A user boom that declined a couple months later.
umbral reef
They still can not blow up your PC or bullshit like that
polar elm
For the security Im sure the moderation team is looking into ways to stop it. Be patient they work hard on this project
little rampart
but i dont thinbk if you can call it early access after several years
open to the public
umbral reef
You can and it's clearly stated and showng
opaque remnant
sure you can. i mean, they could call it alpha instead i guess?
pseudo dawn
How long until full release then?
halcyon ingot
Early access just means you can play it as it is developed
umbral reef
Vrc can't just make an end product and go
They need user feedback to an insane extend
@pseudo dawn untill it's done
little rampart
indeed
vocal shard
bunch of fucking idiots
pseudo dawn
Quite general, considering plenty of games will never leave early access
inner cape
Early access means devs can block you for just speaking
little rampart
wow, someone is pissed over here XD
inner cape
vocal shard
or remove absolutely everything from the current game
and y'all have to use the same avatar
they can do whatever they want
inner cape
Indeed
polar rose
the fact that people are so obsessed in having the ability to ruin vrchat is quite confusing, i would expect this behaviour for a game that has some kind of competitive mode, the gang shit with all the crashers and them having their "wars" is honestly the most delusional thing i think i have ever witnessed in my life. it's basically just an edgy social circle for teens.
and this is just the next level of that shit
polar rose
the game's purpose begins and ends at socialising, there is literally no incentive for them to do any of this other than social standing within their little clique.
drives me up the wall as i fundamentally do not understand this type of people
opaque remnant
you have too high an opinion of people in general
pseudo dawn
I suppose it is similar to Minecraft griefing, as dumb as it sounds?
gilded valley
well minecraft griefing is using gameplay like tnt
vocal shard
@polar rose Believe it or not, but those people are idiots and doesnt really care about you or other people. For them, it's just another way of killing time and nothing else.
polar rose
but even minecraft, with its lack of goals, does have player-made goals and purposes to play
polar rose
i suppose that is correct
polar rose
that i know for a fact.. tried many times
gilded valley
just gotta find a way to counter it with anti crashers etc and live with it I guess
polar rose
i am always nice to those ppl and try to find why they play that way but just end up getting crashed
halcyon ingot
they do it for same reason people bully
opaque remnant
a lot of them take pride in their gang affiliation, and are thus easy to spot out in the open. just block them
polar elm
Cant reason with evil
polar rose
nowadays im starting to just block the people with the gang caps on with their floating mesh nametag, 42 shaders split across their avatar with 5 guns with holo shader playing distorted mumble rap
as soon as i see em
halcyon ingot
I'm starting to do the same tae
i used to feel bad about blocking them before they do anything
but you can just tell when it is one of those kinds of people
polar rose
same, but literally every one is like a clone of the same person
they're all the same
halcyon ingot
ye they are all the same
opaque remnant
a friend of mine is like that, and i have to shake my head when they end up getting crashed standing right next to me
polar rose
my only hope is that this will eventually die out someday, somehow, and they'll get bored and move on to the next meme
and we'll still have a damn community left after it
halcyon ingot
War, war never changes.
polar rose
i guess you right. not to mention a lot of them are "invested" as they bought VR for the game.
rough pulsar
I dunno, we (kinda) survived the red plague earlier this year.
pseudo dawn
Not all of them. Most don't even use VR.
halcyon ingot
the "red plague" xD
polar rose
i feel like it was different Gallium
halcyon ingot
most of the crashers i see are kids with desktop
pseudo dawn
Ugandan Knuckles is more tame compared to hackers and crashers.
opaque remnant
i think most of the crashers i've seen thus far have been using vr
polar rose
it was probably the worst overused meme i have ever seen in my life but i really think it didnt have such a negative impact on the community
pseudo dawn
It was funny when it was a few people doing it, then it just got rammed into the ground.
fading owl
this is a different story
rough pulsar
I dunno, during the red plague 99% of the core community hid away inside private instances.
polar elm
Knuckles is cute
rough pulsar
It definitely had an impact on the community.
pseudo dawn
Too bad it had to steal from two other memes.
little rampart
and im afraid i will go back hiding in private worlds, so sad....
vocal shard
Ok wtf I’ve heard people have the ability to not only give moderation warnings but ban people now
polar rose
mmm the only way i would ever hide is if they could actually screw up my account in some way, otherwise i'm free game
little rampart
and its sad i cant go to a public world without blocking at least 2 or 3 people at least
opaque remnant
that's not how it works
vocal shard
This is becoming a problem lately. People keep crashing people and bypassing other rules and now this shit.
lilac swan
For the sake of argument, if they did then reverting the ban would be super easy for staff.
vocal shard
I just wanna play a game without some asshole fucking my day up
crashing has been a thing for months and months
and that will probably never be fixed
When are they gonna fix it
polar rose
well, i'm sure it will be thwarted and patched in a few days dude
no biggie, its just the same as being crashed
pseudo dawn
Working overtime.
vocal shard
They couldn’t fix the crashing
the devs confirmed that they are already working on it
they know
polar rose
they've partially fixed the crashing
vocal shard
the particle limiter will block 95% of crashes
vocal shard
Not really. I still get crashed by others
polar rose
use the particle limiter my dude
fiery moth
^
static parrot
Particle limiter will prevent the most common crashes
fading owl
You need to set the limiter up first @vocal shard
vocal shard
It’s not particle
polar rose
it wont stop everything but it will help a ton
vocal shard
A script
fiery moth
lilac swan
I know of an almost 100% fix for crashers, but no one's going to like it. Remove all user content in the app
polar rose
so might as well considering 95%+ of crashes are just particle
vocal shard
I haven’t but my friends that do also get crashed
fading owl
@lilac swan 🤔 what
vocal shard
So I found it pointless
fiery moth
My friend, my friends friend, my moms friends parents mothers dog
polar rose
well i dont mean to soound rude
fading owl
All User content as in from all users? 😂
lilac swan
If you cannot upload stuff, you can't crash people. 🙃
fading owl
true
polar rose
but if you arent using all the available tools to protect yourself from crashers, then you just gonna have to learn to deal with them really
fading owl
vocal shard
but then nobody will play the game zarni
opaque remnant
you just find another way to crash people
fiery moth
Also can't crash people if you are banned 
polar rose
i dont use particle limiter either btw im fine with being crashed a couple times a week
doesnt bother me
opaque remnant
not that there would be anyone left to crash
polar rose
sometimes its even less than a couple times a week, its actually not too bad nowadays
vocal shard
@fiery moth ban evasion is a thing you know
lilac swan
But the problem would be technically fixed 😛
opaque remnant
i use the limiter primarily to reduce lag. the no crash thing is a nice bonus
vocal shard
can0t get crashed if you stay in your own world all alone 
fading owl
Well Zarni i have a question, are mods and the team of vrchat actually paid for their work in any way? If yes, how? Vrchat doesnt have any ads or anything in place
fiery moth
I always think seeing someone get banned IP & MAC wise, & sometimes even further, is really funny, they always try & say it wasn't them, or it was their brother, or something, & you just have to sit there smiling to yourself like "Ahhh, yes, I bet your innocent my dude", & tell them they can email whatever address for ban appeals
lilac swan
Employees are, well, employed by VRchat and are paid. VRchat currently gets its income from investors.
opaque remnant
i've heard people complain in the pug they get bad ping since they have to use a vpn to ban evade
vocal shard
Dear god this game has deteriorated over the past year. At first it was funny with the Ugandan knuckles but after that meme died people started to stop playing the game and then it went into a downward spiral of naked and super sexual avatars, harassments, crashers, and not this....ughhhh
fading owl
Personally i wouldnt mind Advertisement in VRChat 🤷🏻 if this helps the Team 👍🏻
fiery moth
Started to stop playing the game? What? Have you actually looked at the statistics?
halcyon ingot
Eventually vrchat will be one guy in fullbody sitting as a nude miku staring at himself in the mirror
opaque remnant
i'm spending most of my time in the mmd dance stage world. it has a mirror, weeb music, and dancing. it's the complete package
fiery moth
It dropped from 21k users a day to about 7k average now, because it died down from the hype, but its been steadily at around 7k ever since then
vocal shard
There’s so many worlds that aren’t popular anymore. I remember seeing tons of people in many worlds. I remember seeing thousands online but now it’s usually in the hundreds and on a lucky day 10,000 at best
fiery moth
Thats expected, because the red plague brought in a lot of bandwagon users
They had to leave eventually
halcyon ingot
THe funniest thing about the mmd dance stage world, is if you do the dances in fullbody it flips your should bones around xD
vocal shard
I think a lot of players at the time were Ugandan knuckles
fiery moth
You saying its dead because it seems dead to you doesn't mean it is
opaque remnant
ah yeah, i've seen some rather confused fullbody users in there
vocal shard
I’m not saying it’s dead
fiery moth
Or dying
vocal shard
But it’s definitely having some trouble
vocal shard
Like less users and now crashers and banners running around more frequently
static parrot
I want gaia night back right now everytime I go there its me and maybe 2 others feelsbadman 😦
halcyon ingot
the playerbase has plateaued since the knuckles boom
fiery moth
Actually GAINED users this month, almost two thousand daily
halcyon ingot
it isnt dying
opaque remnant
to be fair it's a bit hard to recommend the game to anyone when the first thing someone tells them is watch out for crashers and hackers
vocal shard
Why is it when I get on vrchat I only see at least a few thousand online
fiery moth
For a purely social game like this, almost 9k a day is pretty damn good 
vocal shard
Anyway I’m praying the devs fix this ban shit. And hopefully it won’t be a crasher situation which took em a while to fix
*few thousand"
that's actually a lot of players
halcyon ingot
hey thats my quote
vocal shard
you can meet somebody new everyday
halcyon ingot
but ye
vocal shard
when the game only had 100 players
halcyon ingot
you right
halcyon ingot
Honestly tho a lot of people use the "same" avatars currently
opaque remnant
stay away from open mic night and the presentation room?
halcyon ingot
After a point every anime model blends together
opaque remnant
it's basically russian territory
fiery moth
Yeah, Russians hang out at Open Mic and Presentation a TON, idk why
vocal shard
russians are the only people hat dont have a world made by them for them
they just invaded mic night and pres room
fiery moth
And all the Japanese instances are actually filled by Japanese, same with Spires
vocal shard
the pug is laggy as all fuck
vocal shard
but it's where i met most people
fiery moth
I see a lot of French at The Pug, but usually English speakers
halcyon ingot
The pug will never die
fading owl
Ive been to the pug in the beginning, but currently i cant go there at all
ill lag like shit
same for the hangout house
vocal shard
some people said that gaia night will never die
opaque remnant
i have decent fps in the pug these days
vocal shard
i dont see that map anymore
fiery moth
I have 124 hours on VRChat, hmm, I'm waiting to get my Oculus, to play
opaque remnant
reducing the max player count helped
fading owl
Unfortunately Gaia Night had Bloom owo
vocal shard
"bloom"
fading owl
Lemme redefine that
vocal shard
fucking stars appearing at the slight light
fiery moth
Gaia Night is really pretty, for a VR world
fading owl
"nice looking particles"
vocal shard
you got instantly blinded in VR if somebody add emission on their avatars or particles
rip your eyes my dudes
opaque remnant
gaia night was ruined by the mr whiskers event. that's also when the pug started lagging a ton, with the addition of the puzzle
fiery moth
halcyon ingot
RIP gaia night
2 things killed gaia night
mr whiskers
and the fact it is now HUGE*
god I hated the mr whiskers thing
All it did was make the maps I visit look like fallout 4 vr
fading owl
@halcyon ingot i cant play fallout 4 vr 😄
i play 5 minutes and ill 100% get sick
even when teleporting
opaque remnant
open mic night made me nauseous during the event
halcyon ingot
I liked fo4 vr
as much as i liked fo4
which wasnt much
but i am hoping the fallout miami mod will be able to be used with fo4 vr
fading owl
fo4 vr is cool and all
halcyon ingot
because that shit has me hyped
halcyon ingot
Its ok pal
halcyon ingot
its a big community mod
vocal shard
is that like a fallout 4.5 like new vegas?
vocal shard
official mod?
halcyon ingot
nah its unofficial
vocal shard
oh okaay
halcyon ingot
Im more hyped for it than f76
vocal shard
isnt f76 like Rust but worst ?
halcyon ingot
I'm not a rust fan
fading owl
and fallout in a rust-ish style would be neat
halcyon ingot
It could be neat
My reservation is that I play fallout games for a well written, witty, and hilarious rpg
I don't play to build bases
or pvp
and the lack of any npcs in f76 has me worried
but we will just have to wait till the beta
halcyon ingot
I have no doubt f76 will be full of people
But some people will buy any fallout game
I just dont want it to be shit
vocal shard
i wont
vocal shard
i play fallout for the solo rpg experience in a post apo world
vocal shard
good thing mods exist
vocal shard
halcyon ingot
the fact f76 is only going to be available through bethesdas own proprietary launcher pretty much guarantees no mods
unless you shell out for them
vocal shard
well, definitely a big no-no from me

Nice to meet you, such rumors are flowing among Japanese VRChat users, is this officially announced? https://twitter.com/KAU_Caunder/status/1034024194726551553/photo/1
halcyon ingot
There was an announcement about it today in #announcements
All they can do is kick you from the game
tacit plank
Frying a CPU is 100% a lie
young smelt
I see, thank you.
young smelt
I understood that erroneous information flowed.
tacit plank
While it might be possible to damage some CPUs, it's in a whole other dimension than abusing the vrchat api. Basically you'd have to force code into another persons vrchat which overclocks the CPU to a unsafe level, and then somehow execute it
It's just not realistic
fading owl
Will i get in trouble if i join that discord out of curiousity?
median basalt
No
raven girder
No
tacit plank
But fake ban messages probably only take 2 minutes and a CMD window to do
vocal shard
@fading owl yes
raven girder
You'll probably be called funny names, or just flatr out ignored
vocal shard
they will fry your cpu 
raven girder
People are ridiculous and really love to assume the worst.
young smelt
I do not know, I found it with ReTweet on Twitter and came to check here. Because it was not in the announcement either.
raven girder
Restart your game if the dude joins your lobby, which there's only one of, and just stay in a friends only world
indigo fern
they couldnt even fry an egg properly let alone your cpu 
fading owl
My CPU fries itself anyway, that thing is way too old 
indigo fern
oh my, can you fry this egg for me then?
young smelt
i see. thanks all
indigo fern

young smelt
I will describe what is not true in Japanese.
vocal shard
@young smelt dont believe random people on the internet my dude
especially when he say something as dumb as "they can fry your cpu"
"we have proof" and then they dont provide any proof
young smelt
Yes, I could confirm the fact that it was not announced in this official discord.
May I put a screenshot from my remark on Twitter? I would like to put it along with evidence if possible.

Frying Cpu's LUL what
vocal shard
Frying a CPU is pretty much impossible. Frying stuff ON a CPU is possible tho (Pentium 4) lol
umbral reef
Thats now how computers work my friend
tacit plank
I think that it's false rumors started by trolls
umbral reef
@vocal shard Technically you could- But not within the limits of the game at all
No more by ignorant and dumb people...
vocal shard
You would need to somehow disable it's built-in thermal protection I guess
tacit plank
The hackers aren't competent, it's just really easy to do those things currnetly
If you meet a hacker in WoW, they're good. If you meet one in VRChat, they just downloaded some random program from a Youtube description or something
vocal shard
@tacit plank aka Script kiddies
umbral reef
It can be done by an virus but the thing is- Any virus program can detect it instantly as its an special type or edit/call
Because of that even if you gave full permisions its not that easy to do
But you can not run .exe or let stand even get files those types of files onto someones else there pc...
So it is legit impossible
And knowing how users are- They prob upgraded there pc- Did not throw thermal paste on and then messed there stuff up with an crash once it got hot 😂
tacit plank
And making overclocking software is difficult to begin with, they'd need to develop something like MSI afterburner on their own, then make you install it and run it over VR
umbral reef
And if someone can do that- They aint doing it...
tacit plank
It's probably not even a danger at defcon
vocal shard
Alternatively you can always plug your computer on 240V while the PSU is set to 120V input. That should fry it good I guess ?
umbral reef
Those dudes there have easier ways to mess with you pc/laptop/phones :')
And most have enough respect to not brick machines- Just make them hard to use

inb4 they start charging to play the game.
ruby burrow
With all the crasher kids around, it means when I pull out my nerf gun prop to show people, they get nervous it might be dangerous.
thorn sierra
hopefully they stop using this garbage engine atleast
ruby burrow
A friggin nerf gun. ._.
turbid agate
Yeah
ruby burrow
It shoots bright orange 3D projectiles, which obviously somewhat resemble the weird look crash particles tend to have.
turbid agate
remember when showing your avatar with a working gun or sword etc was cool and exciting
now people get scared of crashers
thorn sierra
it's got to the point where no one goes in public worlds
I especially don't as a creator
regardless, I'm hoping there are better choices made soon
vocal shard
This shit fucking silly
turbid agate
I do sometimes but it seems most people in public ignore the tutorial completely and just mic spam or annoy others/crash. There are exceptions when i meet nice people
quiet prawn
All this is, is a new modded client was probably just released and all thr script kiddies are having their fun.
vocal shard
Ik
quiet prawn
Give it time and the devs will get ahead of this one too. And the cycle will repeat in the future.
vocal shard
The ban says get banned ni***
Like why
There just gona find away around it
They always do
ruby burrow
Has he restarted the game yet?
vocal shard
He's closing it now
ruby burrow
Far as I understand the message will stick to you and repeat until you restart.
median basalt
Yeah, when that happens you can't do anything
They keep resending it and you can't move while you get the message
You have to exit the game from SteamVR or alt+f4 on desktop
vocal shard
But yeah I want the old days back where pepole made avatars like me wasn't scared to show it off, now the games turned to this
stark coral
when is the Communist/USSR world gonna be released?
vocal shard
It's fucking sad
stark coral
Alexa play despacito
quiet prawn
This really is nothing new though.
stark coral
Humans 
I only know virtual people
turbid agate
I like those that use alts on a laptop with a alexa near it just so they can play music ingame
so overcomplicates
stark coral
Someone explain why there are so many USSR tanks
vocal shard
Can't they implement some basic anti cheat to check for ddl injections
turbid agate
Russians like army stuff
stark coral
DDL injections
turbid agate
simple as that
vocal shard
That's what the main client. Uses apparently
stark coral
I’m still confused someone wanna tell my why mega hitler got ban? Someone guy had a mega hitter model and I saw him get ban for it (I mean besides the fact that it’s hitler what’s wrong with it?)

@unique folio send a mod report to moderation@vrchat.com along with picture or video evidence.

Forgot to mention output logs
small wing

floral flaxBOT
You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat named output_log.txt
inner cape
Yote
vocal shard
@marsh slate There's no specific time to get your upload rights. You must play the game using a VRChat account (not Steam). Making friends, being overall social and not getting kicked helps reducing the time to get upload rights.

Crash gun is soooo baad😑😑😑😑
umbral reef
Use the partical limiter
It limits an large amount of crashers
small wing
wat pin
umbral reef
small wing
i take my limiter off from time to time just to build logs to send
get them people banned
inner cape
small wing
its worth it if it helps the devs
inner cape
What a generous man
umbral reef
Good boy roll
vocal shard
i do the same with obs on too rarely
but now
I didn't know particles limiting was a thing. 😮
fuck it its to bad
with all the shit now its not worth it
this tiny part of the community its ripping it all again
small wing
its worth it. just install the limiter and you will be back to public in a jiffy
very few people can crash you with the limiter on.
umbral reef
Still- avatar thief's
vocal shard
no trust me
small wing
they have to legit photon packet dos you at that point or use a shader that somehow got whitelisted.
raven silo
why everyone treat like this new thing. been here for while
vocal shard
mesh crahses and shaders crashes
every one has them
plus this new client aint worth
umbral reef
@raven silo new peepes
inner cape
They don't have a shader whitelist, I think
vocal shard
i aint new
small wing
@inner cape they do
inner cape
Its just scripts
small wing
they can blacklist shaders is what i mean
small wing
so if there is a shader that does anything malicous they can stop it
umbral reef
Then you edit it in a second and tada it's pointless
umbral reef
It's not a lot of work to edit them lmao
small wing
bad timing on my part to say "which is a good thing"
tacit plank
About as difficult as bypassing the particle limit
inner cape
How come screenspsce and screen shake are still a thing
small wing
Oclac posted the second i hit enter
tacit plank
Hell, VRChat code still has comments in it
raven silo
best thing to do stay out public worlds and send #moderation-reports
inner cape
Very rarely you see those not being used maliciously
vocal shard
i just hide in invite onlys now
raven silo
go to public world with them just feed them
small wing
@inner cape its because they dont crash people and instead are considered an efffect that can be properly used for like say world devs
inner cape
inner cape
Agreed
small wing
giant boss hits ground
ruby burrow
Alternatively, go visit public worlds specifically to farm for and send reports.
small wing
ground shake
tacit plank
I can't think of any good uses for annoying effects
inner cape
small wing
@tacit plank i once saw a guy have a seisure in vr because someone used flat lit toon texture overlay on him with a really bright flash.
so people will still use shaders to do bad things all the time no matter what
even if the original use for the shader isnt malicous at all
which sucks.
people suck man.
tacit plank
That's a shame
umbral reef
If you mean the Wendy model bullshit
It was fake and seizures don't really work that way...
small wing
nope
vocal shard
is there a way to change your ingame name?
I’d like to change the name on my VRChat account.
Please first check to see if you are using a Steam account. You will know this as your account will have a combo of letters and numbers after your name. If you are using a Steam account, please signup for an account at https://www.vrchat.com/ with the new desired name. If you already have a VRChat account, please email support@vrchat.com. Make sure you are emailing from the same email you used to create the account and mention this in the email. Also put your original name and the desired name you wish to change to.
thx!
marsh slate
guys in unity the avatar is pink and i cant publish says a problem with the polgons idk
what i do
ivory folio
avatar is pink because you haven't imported/selected the shaders that the materials have on them
and you are probably over the 20k polygon limit
fiery moth
why my avatar pink
halcyon ingot
boi u using them there pink shaders
safe yacht
How come avatars take such a long time to load recently?
halcyon ingot
they changed how avatars load
they take slightly longer
but the hitching you get when someone loads in is gone
safe yacht
Ah, thats good. Thought it does impact how long it takes to change avatars on avatar worlds as well.
halcyon ingot
it impacts all changing of avatars

umbral reef
Senior mods are not staff- They can not fix it
forest ermine
yep, infinite VRC logo loading
umbral reef
Just wait for the staff team to look into it and fix things
Spamming them wont fix it
vocal shard
Will pass on.
small wing
@umbral reef better to ping the mods instead of the admins
floral aspen
yeah, just check #announcements regularly
median basalt
@umbral reef actually, they do mention pinging "Other Admin" for urgent issues
And the entire game being down seems fair enough to ping for
small wing
^
umbral reef
The admins already got a direct ping
small wing
k
median basalt
Yeah, but that doesn't ping the "Other Admin" role that some of the regular devs are a part of.
umbral reef
And you think the server not responding towards anything does give them push notifications on there apps 👀
umbral reef
If no i lose all respect for the team as thats not to hard to make

rotund wren
While everyone is here checking the server status can you guys stop lewding in my churchs. Its annoying cleaning the pews.

the bot runs on thier own servers i think
so when the sever goes down it has to check all of them
white jay
Ok so just to make sure (Being serious) probably just check back in an hour?
