#vrchat-general-2 is moving quickly. That can only mean servers are having issues
Welp theres the announcement
Fpaul, get faster at fixing it.
good guy paul
Bahka you saying Fpaul is tupper ๐ค
Hide the pain guys just hide the pain
@vast tulip yeppers
cmon FPaul, we believe in you
i heard if u chant tuppers name the servers will be fixed
It's more like... "come on Amazon, we have no faith in you !"
I'll continue mashing random strings into the console till it works 
i mean they both use cirno
yikes
so likely they are the same
Chants Tupper, Tupper, Tupper
Tupperdose lel
We must sacrifice one for the server gods so they get less angry at us !
@ruby needle dont cut the red wire.
tupperware sponsored by Dialup
wait how many batteries on the server?
2 AA
lol
do you have any yelow wires?
At least 8
At least two UPS's
You can't have any server problems if you don't have any servers. 

:forehead:
@vocal shard
Peer2Peer then?

spent $400+ on vr for offline simulator!
haha
@vocal shard I would pay for the game. If that would mean better servers.

how much deditatd ram i have for minecra server
why my pp hard
cus ur touching it
deditated wam
shit

oh hi bahka
greetings fellow player
well this is very mature XD
long time no see
please make vrchat a 15 dollar game so i can support and also have a reason to
@vocal shard
I meant peer 2 peer not pay2play
Vr Bonding Simulator
ah
cause otherwise a patreon would scare me off
p2p 
peer to peer chat
Why can't we don't for VIP red tag yet. I want to feel special
what is this
sounds like early 2000s
skype?
DonatE*
pay to play, but its also free to play except people who pay get a sick banner
๐ ๐
well
Can we make a gofundme for european servers?
they can't ban you right i know it's probably a dumb rumor, just messages right
the owner in another discord keeps telling people they can ban you and it's "100%" confirmed
No one would play it then @cold talon
just messages right
the message thing's been known for a while
@vocal shard if they ban you an email to vrchat moderation will fix it
mtx to vr!!!
its an API trick
idk, I'm not worried about the people abusing the api, i'm worried about the people using burners. Got hit by one earlyer. instant bluescreen, which is a good thing in that case but still lol rather annoying to say the least
boi who just laughing emoji reacted
anyone else getting a black screen when getting on vrchat?
โฌโโโฌ ใ( ใ-ใใ) There you go
@mellow zephyr Update ya drivers buddy
REE
i got hit by one and people told me "maybe its just your pc being shit"
@daring seal me
@daring seal same here
FUKIN REEEE
so its not just me eh...
an BSDO doesnt just 'happen' after a crash there are other problems going on then like un updated drivers or programs clashing with eachother
fix one issue create a new one
Reason why griefers are so prevalent is because the entry fee to the game is... zero dollar. So basically any 12 years old on daddy's computer can download it and follow Youtube tutorials on how to crash people. Now make VRChat cost 20$, and suddenly 12 years old Jimmy cannot afford griefing without begging daddy. And if the griefers still buy it... well... money for the devs and a free ban for the griefers ! Double win !
Also start using the particle limiter VRC provides
hey guys did yall notice that vrchat going down actually just makes us closer than we ever were in the first place
FPAUL When are the random console strings ready!?
@vocal shard Look at CS;go my friend
vrchat online
@umbral reef No? I'm talking about Burners. Aka people rendering a looping script on your gpu that overloads it and thus thermalling it and causing hardware damage, but since my cpu shuts off after X temp, I'm fine.
cause vrchat you dont get that
some crashes cause drivers to stop working from what ive been told
Unless you download it and ran the cript yourself it wasnt from vrc my bud
mirror kill frames and kill friendships
friendships?
oof i like how the server split in 2
I mean, you must not be aware of the exploits on this current version of unity then
worst they can do is kill your headset untill you restart your pc and that one isn't spread around in discords
x~x
@mellow zephyr it doesn't work like that
I am and they recently fixed what bug you would mean
It's actually 2014-2018...
Vrchat still sucks at loading
did they fix vr yet?
@winged quartz too many people would rather play mirror staring simulator 2018 as opposed to going places and making friends in game.
vrchat started in 2014 ya
Lol
#vrchat-general-1 lobby talks about the crashers and mostly complain about it
๐
@umbral reef Even more restrictive then: Ask for social security number on account creation, like on some South Korean games. If they get banned, well it's Ultra GG.
I honestly expect they use any of the other billion ways to overwork an CPU/GPU but running a burner script? ...
rip vrchat 2017-2018 ๐ค ๐
I did a screenspace mirror blocker in case the mirror staring ever get too bad
and we just meming in #vrchat-general-2
@small wing Well, I'm always editing shit, so ๐ค
@vocal shard Then you need a full checking system for all countries... And hella GL doing that
@winged quartz you are excused then my dear sir.
Nope, they can ban you.
Its ded again
@crisp moth hahahahhahaa- No
@crisp moth They can only log you out, the can't actually ban you
Literally nobody has been proven to be actually banned
@crisp moth who said they can?
They can send you fake ban messages and probably couple it with the logout exploit
idk if the banning is real but crashers are for sure real
Staff can ban you of course
no joke
Real staff
Lol
you can't overheat a fugging gpu
Sending messages to people is something anyone can do from the vrchat website
Might learn him to not accept any rumor as fact
they have hardware stops
the ping spam
@uncut gorge this is different, this is like a moderation warning
the hacker, I've talked to him and gave him an account to ban. Then it was banned.
Its not like the staff themself debunked it
and its not like they have access to your fan speed
@umbral reef Even more restrictive: Manual avatar lookup when uploading, with restriction on who can upload and who cannot.
@vocal shard Yea then it takes like a year to upload an avatar within a week
Public proof?
Like even just a video on an alt account being banned?
Or themselves being banned
Or it being used widespread and properly reported
I just want them to fix my wrists
If the bans were real then half the people here would be banned already.
@crisp moth
I also seen a hacker "banning" someone on the public lobby but they could log back in without any problems even though they saw a message about being banned so =p
theres none every time smething like this happens theres the same rumor that they'll ban you and spill your milkies
If the bans were actually real, the trolls would abuse that until everyone was banned. They have not
are servers up yet ?
they'd sit in the pug
They can only send fake messages and maybe log you out
@vocal shard yep, all it would take is one person and one hour of time to ban like everyone who's online
make a script that bans everyone in the instance than moves you to the next one 
Or dont
i feel sorry for the devs right now, som brat being a troll is causing more work for them
set it up on multiple dummy accounts
I have a friend who got the message and he is still there... so it is 100% fake oof and everybody already said that. They should not have access to serversided functions
its some kiddies trying to spread their l33t haxor discord
I feel sorry for everyone who comes in here due to people like Mitch (and others of course) spreading misinformation in their servers about fried CPU's
xD
rokk: what happened to me
Yeah, don't download anything from that Discord
"guys washout now hackers can turn tour gpu into bacon!!11!!!1!!"
Can we start a VRC wikipedia and make a page of fake callouts from big servers yet?
i just came to make sure it was a rumor like i expected
Yeah
the only thing you can fry is some eggs and bacon
I want to call people out for being dummies ๐
that whole stupid "they'll kill your cpu and kill your dog" thing
VRChat wiki would be cool
not your cpu on gpu
no not the dog! (doesnt have a dog)
There is already an version off it but meh- Not dope enough
how can they fry your gpu by putting it at 100%? then doing blender renders would kill it
VRChat wiki would requires a LOT of moderator because it would be completely griefed.
Last time I used a VRChat wiki, I installed the wrong Unity version. That's how outdated it was
but seriously, so far people are causing hard crashes with shaders and particles
Everyone knows that the only way a particle can fry your gpu is if the particles are red enough /s
it would require actual hacking which these script kiddies have no idea how to do
i fry everything
Just dont accept all edits as facts and monitor them
I can confirm mimi's statement as well. You're using up all the red in my GPU
Some hackers came in to my house and gave me 100$ and left D:
From now on please use blue particles to even out my GPU ink
RolltheRED
and if they were to hack into the vrchat servers they'd be after financial shit not stupid crap like l33t haxxoring the playbase
It's because the red particles are hotter
But truth is that it's much easier to destroy something than to make it
Check if users made edits before if so- Trust them more
Troll stuff? Block there edits from showing up in the system agian but dont block them from sending
@vast tulip thanks for calling me hot then ๐
Are you a particle?!
the api is a man in the middle that works alongside photon to verify users
when you join a room with someone your photon properties are sent to the photon servers which has a plugin inside of it
the plugin works alongside with the vrchat api to verify users, if the user is failed to be verified it kicks them out
the photon server requires no auth, the only thing you have to do is feed it a user id when you join and it will let you in
red is a hot doodoo head
@vast tulip i can be anything you want me to be ๐
scuse me but white particles are the hottest
@umbral reef Also permaban, no excuse. Hurt their little feelings.
actually i was a mesh particle one time
Inconspicious, you should tell the VRChat staff if they're not aware yet
Well yea- But dont block them from submiting
Shadow bans are the best bans ๐
so ironically i can say yes to that statement haha
they were told in Feburary
Also, tell your friends to use the latest SDK for uploading anything, I believe that it fixes cache ripping
I've told Tupper, no response yet though.
inconspicious go on the 4chan vrchat discord and @ him there
It's not about the servers, bug off.
@tacit plank It also finally fix the temporary freezing of the entire Unity software when the upload window is open.
ouch
Lol nice
sorry if i made you angrey
-15hp
ree
4chan VRChat discord..?
its a joke ya dingus
is it?
I don't think it is
idk i think it should be a joke ๐ค
maybe its not
maybe the illuminati is telling me things
I'm betting 10$ that 4chan is implicated in those server issues. The garbage can of the Internet hit something nice with its stink again.
@crisp moth they might get pissy at you for doing it though but i think tupper cares more about them
its not 4chan
Forgot 4chan even existed 
4chan is a shell of its former self
now its stupid right wing /pol/ shit mixed with dorks whoa ren't interested in hacking
They have financial issues too.
Good riddance.
theres a 4chan vrchat group who don't crash or hack they're just really xenophobic and catty
wait what about the vrg
women
edgy
@small wing If I could be a robot, I would. I'm sorry for being stuck in a biological body. T.T
Back on for me, hopefully it is for you guys too
Link?
Zelda.
4chan users used to be smart, edgy assholes. Now they're basically Reddit users
Roll- Guess you dont know how reddit works
"xd"
Well, they're a bit better than Reddit, as they don't like censorship as much
quoted
fucking hell reddit is worse with accepting people then 4chan in this day and age
Reddit: The intelligent and informative posts are great, the dumb and juvenile posts are worst than 4chan.

fucking auto ban bots for having comments or points in specific subs-
Shared banlists for right and left leaning communities
Extreme censoring and bias
at least its not the *youtube comments section
OH GOD
hehe
when i open up twitter i feel like im watching a bunch of stereotype strawmen argue with each other
^ this
Reddit has few smart people though, which is probably because they left. Shadowbans are a malicious way to moderate, companies are gaming Reddit for popularity and advertisement, and the website and its staff are politcally biased
Its hard to find a clean fair reddit now
Youtube comment section is basically the dumping ground of the lowest of the low of the Internet.
Yep
Mainly parrots, repeating all the same dumb stuff.
i call it the "These people HAVE to be bots to be this stupid" section.
At least you can swear in it, or state your opinion without fearing having your account banned. For now, at least
actually you cant
youtube hides offensive comments
now it's "politically biased" to ban racists and nazis
and when i say offensive i mean thats how they state it works
that used to be just what you did
meaning there is no vindictive explanation of what "offensive" is .
Pretty sure Youtube allows posting comments that would make someone throw themselves down a bridge.
It's biased in a way that any criticism against Reddit, the media or left-leaning articles can get you banned
i wouldn't doubt they abuse the definition of offensive to ba antireddit comments or whatever
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it. -Aristotle
my connection keeps timing out what gives fam
deal with it
"Offensive" is anything they don't like
but a lot of the stuf fspread about reddit being biased come from far right wing sources who want to poison the pot
It's an American website. Of course it's going to be controversial.
because they ban nazis
and shit like fatpeoplehate
When was the last time you saw a political thread on Reddit without a literal 1000 [Removed] posts?
and trans hate subreddits and shit
"I quote people i never met" - Rollthered
You're mistaken, they ban anything that gets them bad PR
guess who i quoted.
/pol/ and stormfront etc have threads where they specifically make plans
๐
on how to spread controversies like reddit being biased and shit
caffeine i believe you though
Waiting to catch someone with that
@vocal shard The Youtube comment section is especially soul-crushing depressing for trans folk.
it's grey not black and white
if you believe in free speech, then you have to allow things like making fun of fat people and trans
๐ฃ
rak yeah legally
they can have their own websites
but if you own a private website
you can do what you want
vrchat bans for hitler avatars
Just because they're not breaking the law doesn't mean that they're in the right morally
@vocal shard just remember that these are people who take the time to post youtube comments
the immensely major reason why Youtube comments are so fucked is because the combination of easy upvotes and the sorting of comments based on that
They ban hitler avatars because they are probably afraid of getting a bad rep for it
what are they doing with their lives getting caught up in political shit not involving them?
which is fine by me imo
remember hatreon? the patreon without moderation? the lefties went and got their hosting provider to shut them down, so...no they can't have their own website
Anything with "trans" in the title gets demonitized automatically from Youtube
Can this move over to #general-media please ?
Ohright
I was able to log back into VrChat and load in
!online
There are 3443 users in VRChat currently
oof
@cold talon Do you really have a Mini ?
indeed they are 
!online
There are 4410 users in VRChat currently
hih
still cant open my menu without crashing so ill wait longer
Guys I have "unauthorized" error when I try to login at vrchat,how to fix this?
Try copy-pasting your password into the VRChat login field

You can also try logging in your your email address instead of your username
Thanks,now it's working
Hey everyone, I have hear plenty of rumors about hacker who have the ability to ban, and delete accounts. Is there any validity behind this or is it just another spread of false information?
They can't ban accounts
No. I've seen hundreds of "rumors" about VRChat and they are never correct.
Lol nice, I'll be sure to inform my friends that they are incorrect
@warm remnant Just assume two things
There has not been posted proper clearly confirmed proof? Its fake
Has VRC posted anything about it? If no- Its fake
Hey tupper can I dm you something involving the cheats?
Tell them to find just one piece of evidence lol
(there was one a few min ago. it doesnt hurt reding that)
everything ne gative you hear about vrchat isn't correct
think positive!
does that mean that the electrons flowing through transistors in your computer that allow the game to run aren't real
I had someone last night flat out tell me he was part of a community that could do certain things. Even if they can't, I wish I recorded because he named a lot of names and I want to do whatever I can for the mods. It's just so much work to put in reports with proper evidence.
Don't get me wrong I didn't believe them and have been in public lobbies they have been afraid of enter for some time since I heard them talking about it, I just wanted to have some back up on my stance on it.
someone has a link of some animated scp skin
yes here you go
False infos, and you should report those assholes spreading said false info.
[DATA EXPUNGED]
I'd perfer not to report my friends, though it may be nice to have a page denouncing these rumors
People went full paranoid and believed they got banned from the game... until they restarted the game and realized they weren't banned.
my B I didn't read the last sentence
Pretty sure they used to be able to actually kick people with this same thing a long time ago
they could send a message too
people didn't try to log back in
and were certain they were banned
(they werent)
I wonder if moderators have special versions of the VRChat client that allows monitoring stuff, sort of like a debugger.
What's this fake bans stuff my friend told me about because it really makes me not wanna play VRChat until it's resolved because I value my account to much? I don't know does anyone wanna explain this to me so I have a even better understanding of it.
@grand fable #announcements
Ah okay.
Does it actually give you a ban where you can't play? That's what i'm mainly wondering?
no
๐
No vrc till this thing get fixed
so i take it that vrc still has some hacker problems and that i shouldn't get on until further notice
oof that's a sign
Avatar stealing has been patched unless they already found a new method
seriously!?
Yes
thank god
What about people who had mod powers?
that is not mod powers
well that's good to hear
Well it's more like the previous, easy way of stealing avatars was patched
Ability to ban people ?
all they can do is display the message
no, they can't ban you
that is more than enough
if they brute force your password they can just login the website and delete your account VRChat has absolutely 0 2FA
That's why you use super long passwords made of upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers and symbols. You make brute force attacks too time consuming for the hackers.
Jesus
So is VRChat currently worth playing with everything going on or should I for say just wait for things to get a little un mess I shall say?
It's playable if you join friends in a private room.
@grand fable seems fine for me
it is not as bad as it sounds
^
Fair enough, also one more thing. How do people move there avatar around without them actually moving around because I have full body and this would be very useful to use so I can get things below my floor or so on?
Do you mean something like playspace mover?
https://github.com/naelstrof/VRPlayspaceMover
Like where you can drag yourself?
Yup! That's what I use to "climb" around the world.
They have a bit of an installation guide in the readme. You'll need VR input emulator first.
Also, I suggest looking into the advanced configuration because you can do fun stuff like sliding across the floor or floating into the sky.
I have VR in put emulator already I just have been trying to figure what the thing was called.
Also thank you so much!
@neon flume I'm guessing OpenVRInputEmulator still needs the input-emulator-temporary beta, right?
anyone know some free prefabs for a gunfire effect?
have you checked the unity store?
Just finished reading 1k+ messages about people talking out of their ass about perma ban from script kiddies, idiots spreading rumors about some randoms frying your hardware and morons believing every rumors
What a shitfeast that was
I actually havenโt needed the input emulator beta. Iโve been on a different beta branch to fix the screenshot shortcut.
I boot up the playspacemover and it doesn't let me drag myself around.
lol be glad you weren't here for it Svel. Can't believe how many people believed the hacker known as 6chan was behind the outage
Good that i wasnt there
yeah i saw someone spreading the one about people frying hardware through the game
this chat needs feminism
might as well just believe every chain telling people to block X discord user because they'll "DDoS your discord"
they'll lock you out of your pc and than use it for bitcoin mining 
any ideas why my game is locked to 60 fps in desktop mode, even with DesktopLow quality settings?
@neon flume I boot up the playspacemover and it doesn't let me drag myself around.
When will the security thingy be fixed
When do we get multithreading
*
Also never
Eventually
But how did the security thing happend
Because bad security
so in 40246years to be exact
Why didnt they hire a pen tester then?
it happened because no system is foolproof
and yeah, probably because security could use improvement
Becausd no money
Some of them do it for free
the team is small and the game is unfinished
Hmm alright maybe try out the input emulator beta then. You can access it through steam and then right clicking on steam VR
So never
^
let's start a gofund me for vrchat's development
@ivory folio I'm guessing the framerate is being locked to your display's refresh rate, or something similar.
we'll make vrchat great again
If we find out where the hackers are lets riot
oh wait so moon wasnt joking?
If vrchat goes down we riot
Rip
game will be full of sadbois when we go to unity2018 and all content is wiped
@neon flume It connects just fine but when I go to press the buttons (at least I think it's the right buttons) it no worko..
why would you want higher than 60 on a monitor
Maybe they have one of those sweet high refresh rate monitors?
probably because he has a high refresh rate monitor
Who is with me? VrChat goes down we riot
more like celebrate
Yup...
VRChat already went down and it was chaos. You missed it lol
tru
its better capped tho, that way you gpu doesn't try to go all out to render 200 fps
lol
lol wut
that aint how it works
Guys where shall we start a riot
what if he has a 144Hz monitor?
yeah its facts eyes can only see 2 fps
Nah
Depends on how good ur eyes are
Its 24 max
Lol
Thats why cinemas are ib 24 fps
its not the fps that kills its the delay
Fact

the human eye doesn't see different wavelengths of visible light, it can only distinguish light and dark
If i swing my fist down in vr i can see it at 60 fps
we should all be playing our games in grayscale
the....delay? ...wut?
If i swing it down irl i can also see it 60fps
Nop
Its a fact
@paper cloak still worth
Eyes cna see up to 1000fps
burger king foot lettuce
Svel is probs just memeing Mochie, idk about b9768011 I'm not typing the rest of that
the last thing you want in your 144hz monitor

hi n8
I dont meme, in always serious
We cannonly see 24 fps, thats why cinemas are in 24fps, if we can see more then it would be higher
I laugh at people buying 144hz monitors and believing those ads
Ridiculous 
๐
lol okay then
This man has his facts straight
Alternative facts*
!online
There are 5322 users in VRChat currently
thats what my name translates to after all
Anyone Else Getting The Message On Vr Chat ''Could Not Log In Unauthorized'' ?

@floral aspen hush idiotidus
no u
Long ago, VR chat lived in perfect harmony.. but it all changed once the crasher nation attacked..
i never understood crashers XD it does nothing XD
well it crashes you
It annoys people
Long ago, VR chat lived in perfect harmony.. but it all changed once the crasher nation knuckles attacked..
#api abuse
hmm, i didnt get annoyed i just reported it and moved on
i kicked soemone yesterday from my discord server for talking about abi abuse as in wanting info on doing just that
you have to be a steam user for a month to make an account @cold talon
Only Club penguin, master of all programming could bring balance to gaming.. but when we needed it most, it vanished.

the good days of vrc when we had custom scripting
Imagine
We're all steam users now
or just pay to play
make the game ptp
Canโt live without that stranger things theater world
eh it's user generator content, i'd do 20 maybe
id pay 200$ a year for scripting in my world
ransomware requiring 200 dollars to unlock

Iโd do 69
thats like saying 489321
you must pay 69 dollars to get the lewd world where you must accept an 18+ warning to join
notworth
THAT WAS A SECRET
sorry vrc, i know i just violated our contract but i leaked the wonderful idea
wix website builder but for vrc models*, with crash guns, and avatar stealing
bascially.
rec room flashbacks
Isnt that just the one website where you can download the unity models and go? ๐ค
Fairly sure its the same thing
^thats what I said
^^ thats what i said
wtf is this message spamming on my screen xd
XD
me
had to close vr chat bc of it
wtf is this golem on mine?
oh it was us
the world wonders
ooh i want to see and record this wonder
@pine pilot modded client
we wanted you to join in the convo
xd
im going to go check the total great war
Avoid public worlds for now
so welcome @pine pilot
still tho
they should probs take vr chat down untill theyre gone
im going to go to a hub and see this yeet me luck
No
there was some random ass thing asking permissions to my harddrive
yoot
@mellow zephyrhe did that on purpose
So they stress out the devs and they fix it immediately
@pine pilot Congratz you where dumb enough to prob download a virus outside of VRC
what do you mean by asking perms to your hard drive
yeah I figured it was something like that at the end of the day
havent downloaded anything
its called asking for administative privileges
because he's legit a chill guy
@mellow zephyr he actually confirmed it on another discord
neato
And i can confirm he confirmed it
also, do we know if a linux build is coming to vrchat
i need linux build
Still- he took shit bit to far so he is still an good old cunt
vrchat needs DirectX
Break, he basically explained the exploit to the devs
They did nothing so he started to run around with that client
no linux for you
how to make linux users sad
Make them use windows
n0
I'v known about the api stuff for a while but i'v never personally messed with it because I could care less x~x
Since they all become anti windows as soon as Linux is installed
lol
glad in some what that someone forced the issue to fix security issues if i'm honest
way*
Yup
not the first time it has happened won't be the last
Brutal way to do it but at least its effective to nake stuff move
I used linux in dual boot for a while
He is also honeslty fucking dumb to do it on a weekend day
Fucking throw it on a tuesday- Get plenty of annoyed peeps still and the devs are in home to fix it properly fast
conclusions: linux is absolute garbage for desktop
If he showed the exploit to the devs and they didn't fix it I can see why he's doing what he is doing
it runs servers and embed things perfectly yes but you touch a thing and everythig breaks
I'm not sure why they wouldn't fix it tho, considering when the final ik exploit got shown off it was patched in 1 day
uff final ik
hey user do you need that X server? nah I don't think so I'm gonna break it
it hurts
because that exploit was being used..
it was used to separate gestures ๐ค
It had the potential to be used for worse things
i'v accepted at this point that things will get fixed eventually โข
Reminds me of riot games in like season 1-3 where the heavy meme was always SOON โข
it had because people could spawn web panels on avatars and run scripts on them
mmm, you could try to play vrchat with steamplay, they added it recently on the steam beta for linux
We literally have a VRSoon :B
oh no
You can still use scripts on avatars if you Really want to and you're driven to edit files.
The sdk's far from perfect, as we know.
glad they disabled the web panels for those reasons so quickly at least.
Also apparently some have tested VRchat with Steamplay and it doesn't work well, sadly.
yes oh
@rough pulsar oh we do? neato
Anybody going to do anything about this shit ?
Pretty sure it was from back when
was the running meme
2nd time in a few days I got this.
Oh, unfortunate, maybe in the future will have better support
@cunning anchor refer to announcements
i guess having the entire vr part throws off steamplay a bit
Mmm k
@cunning anchor please dont link pictures with the link in it.
The fuck is the
meme?
STORY TIME
part of me wonders if he just has a bot parsing the active player base and sending that to whomever it comes across lol
Any news on those hackers in VRC right now?
back when vrchat ran on unity 5.3, the update to unity 5.6 was slow and shouting out "FIVE SIX" became a meme until the release.
Read the #announcements
ye I know that one
that's so old
god when we update to a new unity it's going to be the same
will we get the unity 2018 meme too?
Its going to be magical
At the time it was this magical mystical wonder, including things like Single-pass Stereo, full-body tracking, the post-processing stack and others.
so now 2018 is the new meme since people want unity update? lul
it's going to be fucking worth it for sure
unity 2018.1 or 2018.2 never
Fbt 
muh api breaks
even just one unity version up would fix a few major exploitable issues tbh
Bear in mind this was back when vrchat was a lot smaller (before 5.6 we managed to break the audio system with only about 40 people) and things were simply different.
multithreading 
ye
But a lot less now
Yeah, but it had never happened before because we'd never had that many people online and in one instance before.
So it was kind of a big deal at the time.
honestly right now i would be surprised to see 40 people in one room and anyone trying to run away cause of lag
My audio was breaking on Pan's map a little back ago
Like 2 months or so
With only me
Also some douches with those broken animations can fuck my audio easily
are there issues again? Every time I click the button to upload an avatar it instafails
Maybe old SDK?
this
@timid dragon dont lnk pictures with the discord link
lemme censor it
not needed
what is that then
can it be fixxed
i wonder if they are making a patch for it
so they can ban people?
they can spoof your client into thinking you have been banned but due to it just beeing a spoof you can just restart an all is good
lol
Hope revs can fix the issues thou
Devs*
They can
They just need time to figure out what the client is doing and exploiting
Then they need to test it to be aure its fixed
Theb roll out an update
chu mean
they already know boy
They probably just inject data in vrchat.
So what if you click ok on that fake moderation message? I didnt personally and changed my password after was just wondering
Oh alright lol no stealing accounts?
So far I know, no
sending output logs can help if you get logged out ๐
Well
When you restart game, I need to login again.
So it somehow kills the session when that message appears.
ah
Oh shit I forgot is that just for the vrchat guys to fix the problem?
Is this problem widespread atm?
in public worlds, yes
Like they do with WoW clients and such
i had it happen in my own world
People just have to ruin everything donโt they
True
abuse b4 fixed
Well, if vrchat servers don't check the content being sent to other clients, then it's easy to abuse it.
same as skin snatching
client just assumes you can use it and doesnt check if public or private
only avatar pedistals check for it
Well, no idea, but as far as I noticed, they seem to either inject into the game, thus vrchat sents it to the server, but I wonder why a moderation-message is publicly accessible by normal accounts.
@true sky not anymore
Is the reports of CPUโs being fried sometimes true? Or are they just overreaction
that's overreaction
fakkke
gpu crashers are a thing, but never heard of a fried gpu
But yah, it just looks like injection of the game using a injector tool.
Basically, what most World of Warcraft cheat apps use.
But is there anything these people can do that is serious damage or anything or is it just annoying things like crashes
No, they just figured out how to bypass a security check on server, or so it seems.
Again, a moderation message able to sent by public game clients without authentication check ?
its all client-side stuff they're doing, would be more dangerous if it was server-side
As long as they don't exploit the server to execute random code.
Then it's, pretty safe to say it's fine.
client side = dont need server to check anything
well i doubt that they'll suddenly find a 0-day or something like that lol
why alot of issues occured
Server needs to be sure the account sending moderation messages, is actually allowed to do so @true sky
what makes you think moderation messages don't have authentication
because fake mod messages are being sent out
^^
@next glade If they did, someone wouldn't be able to sent these.
If the "hacker" has mod permissions, then it sounds like a serious breach.
seems like its only the mod message they have access to
So if you get this message restart then log back in nothings gonna happen right? Itโs just an annoyance?
they spoof the clients that they have it but dont avtually have it
yeah
@low dagger Yes
Alright awesome
thus the client executes the messages and actions but a relaunch fixes it.
@ruby needle Yah as in injection..
but don't go to any discord links that may be in those messages
As I said xx times
It's not spoofing, they just change memory code in vrchat app, in order to sent out a flag that is like "moderator = true"
Or something similar.
Wouldnโt dream of it @sullen venture lol
just sayin lol
Well an immediate red flag was a guy yelling โPRESS OK!โ Over and over lmao
@ruby needle There is 2 possibilities though, either they modify the data being sent out by the client, and change bits of it, or the client is being injected.
afaik its a photon exploit they use to spoof the messages 
It was weird because after a few seconds it brought me to a new pub with 0 people anywhere does that mean that room was shutdown or something?
Photon ?
You mean particles ?
LOL
Yah, I'm not really familiar with the VRchat code, so I'm just guessing here, from experience with other servers I host.
No shit, why do you think I don't do that ๐
But what does a player stop by ignoring the ToS ?
Nobody,
Obviously the ones creating these exploits, won't openly scream that they created exploits though xD
If they are smart... xD
the one thing that rarely gets punished is modifing the SDK
other things get punished if reported and proven.
I find things like that moderation warning, a pretty bad thing for vrchat though.
well, not that modifying the sdk gives you that much lol
Enough to have a modified one I guess @granite coral
Otherwise it wouldn't be around.
@next glade well... by you having content on your account that would have been denied by the official one

in terms of abusability the sdk gives you nothing if you modify it
it allows you to break intendet limits
Modded SDK technically only allows a single thing.
most sdk modifications are just QoL modification to not waste too much time in unity
and you break the TOS by doing so
boohoo
yea dude lets just dedicate half of the server processing power to scanning through peoples asset bundles, extracting them, counting the polys with code, checking all the particle systems
just to ban some guy 200 polys over the limit
xd
i did say that it is rarely punished right?
you basically said why that is the case...
that does not make it any more allowed
like, i remember back in april that you needed to modify the sdk to not have it break completely on upload
luckly it was fixed after that
otherwise they ignore it
also the ToS about the sdk is not clear
first we have the brony talking which idk why he did in the first place now we have a certified normie who follows tos
The SDK ToS doesn't state anything about being modified.
vrchat's tos does
It talks about objects.
on one side they say the sdk is against it, on another place it says you have the permission as long as you don't use the code for projects outside vrchat
Not the code
@ruby needle The VRchat ToS is seperate from the SDK ToS
If it was suppose to follow the VRChat ToS block, it should state so in the block of the SDK
It doesn't.
Ah, I retract it.
Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions in this EULA and any additional terms included with the SDK
It does say, so yeash.
You're right, my bad @ruby needle
Could someone make an anoucement about all this fake vrchat hacking and cpu frying going around? its spreading like wildfire and its annoying because its just fake.
there is a anouncement...
there already is
@dusk tinsel And you do ?
I need some help, I'm having issues as soon as I connect my trackers, the vive controllers loses the hand symbol on it and doesn't allow me to click or use it, although I can still see it and move it while I have the headset, but I can't click anything or use it on vrchat, anyone knows how to fix it?
ye i actually do coming from someone who thought photon was particles LOL
Did you code, host or maintain any game servers @dusk tinsel
Photon cannon 
If not, then no, you don't know shit.
wheres the annoucement again?
ideky a brony tryin to talk in the first place already proved yourself stupid enough xd
Stating that a image = brony, shows your incompetence.
no insulting pls 
(b) reproduce, modify, and use any sample software provided to you in source code format as part of the SDK in either object code or source code formats solely in connection with your
@ruby needle Telll that to that ass that talks shit





not my mini cooper
