Its not

vocal shard
#

oh

#

um

#

okey

umbral reef
#

It does not have any extra hit on performance

vocal shard
#

cough 90k

#

Even then, over 65k breaks the mesh in unity since it can't handle it. And if you do the work around you cause more draw calls and headaches

glossy wharf
#

You need to use a modified sdk which is against tos

vocal shard
#

i prefer someone that use a 300k polys model with 5 material than somebody with a 18k poly model and 50 materials

umbral reef
#

That the SDK doesnt allow it is another thing

quartz basin
#

Just block all avatars with the poly count above 20k

eager crag
#

Because I do YouTube & stream & don't go through my requests @mighty galleon

vocal shard
#

blocking 90% of vrc

umbral reef
#

@glossy wharf There are like 12 ways to do it without editing the SDK and just using simple animations...

eager crag
#

They build up

twin jacinth
#

Nicee

mighty galleon
#

oh, i've never actually watched a stream of vrchat

#

so idk any streamers xD

glossy wharf
#

@umbral reef except there arent

umbral reef
#

There are my friend

eager crag
#

All good m you're probably better off playing rather than watching

glossy wharf
#

That will just end up in a filthy unoptimized mesh hell

celest kelp
#

No luck

twin jacinth
#

You're pretty popular
66k subs impressive^^

mighty galleon
#

yeah

vocal shard
#

He's talking about hiding meshes....

hybrid axle
#

Hu

#

Hi*

vocal shard
#

there is a way to upload 20k more polys without modifying the sdk

mighty galleon
#

vrcaht is one of those games i'd not have fun watching

celest kelp
#

seen shit for blender and MMD e ^e

umbral reef
#

You still get above the poly count though GWnanamiLaceShrug

vocal shard
#

but let's not get into more details about that

glossy wharf
#

And that is not an option

vocal shard
#

Inactive parts don't count towards the 20k...

eager crag
#

Yeah, I dunno how I hit 66k

mighty galleon
#

only reason i like vrchat is because i can talk to people

umbral reef
#

That its unoptimized is another problem- But having less materials and no dynamic bones is smarter

hybrid axle
#

@mighty galleon true

eager crag
vocal shard
#

yo sairen, why did you change your name btw

glossy wharf
#

My avatars have one mesh and a max of 3 mats so unoptimized bypasses are not an option

umbral reef
#

You do- But plenty of users dont

glossy wharf
#

Cause i had a change in my life and i thought it would go along with it @glossy wharf

#

Wiw

#

I ping myself

#

Me smart

umbral reef
#

There is an reason cat now yells at ya if you have an unoptimized shitfest

twin jacinth
#

lmao

glossy wharf
#

@glossy wharf

vocal shard
#

Good job lol

umbral reef
#

But class again GWnanamiRinWave take care

glossy wharf
#

Wtf

#

When i click on svel it pings me

vocal shard
#

xD

#

Anyways I finally started optimizing stuff better. I think I halved my material counts easily

glossy wharf
#

Brb restarting discord

quartz basin
#

Only green peasants are limited to 20k. We yellow übermenschen can upload what we want.

vocal shard
#

While still being able to do the stuff I want with emissions and such

eager crag
#

The day they make it easier to fully optimize avatars the better

glossy wharf
#

I dont understand how people strughle with atlasing

vocal shard
#

@vocal shard the new cats update have a better atlas function

#

you can choose what you want to atlas

glossy wharf
#

You can do a single mat and emission

vocal shard
#

Cats has gotten a lot better with atlasing lately

glossy wharf
#

Just need to use an emission map

twin jacinth
#

Ayyy
The day we get suits
then full dive vr
mmmm

vocal shard
#

so you can keep some part in their own material to use specific shaders

#

it's literally 2 clicks now

#

there is no excuses to not atlas

#

not a single one

glossy wharf
#

Use the Material combiner addon its so much better than cats

vocal shard
#

I needa work on how emission maps work

#

CATS actually implemented it

#

and made it even easier

glossy wharf
#

Pog

vocal shard
#

yeah

glossy wharf
#

Even before

#

Atlasing was easy

vocal shard
#

2 mouse clicks, that's all it take

#

I specifically use 2 textures for 2 different parts.

glossy wharf
#

It was just a bit of work

mighty galleon
#

well then

vocal shard
#

just insane how easy it is now

mighty galleon
#

i've not delt with blender in a long while

vocal shard
#

Outside of that everything else can mostly be atlased

#

you don't do anything

eager crag
#

2 mouse clicks is all it takes for me to end up with a scuffed avatar

glossy wharf
#

Im pretty sure me and anubis were one of the first people to atlas manually

#

Back in march

#

At least in our group

mighty galleon
#

this year or last

glossy wharf
#

Actually it was january

vocal shard
#

The main issue is I do still need 2 different shaders so regardless I still do need at least a few mats

glossy wharf
#

Jesus christ time flies

eager crag
#

You know Anubis?

glossy wharf
#

Yes

vocal shard
#

Yeah it does @glossy wharf

glossy wharf
#

I know most of old t5

eager crag
#

I need to hang out with Anubis again

vocal shard
#

mighty galleon
#

vocal shard
#

#

#

Aboobis lol

Drek is nutty

glossy wharf
#

Drek wants to lewd me all the time

eager crag
#

Drek keeps asking my sister & I to spit on him

glossy wharf
#

Ever since i came out as trans he fucking tries even harder its big monka

vocal shard
#

I've been hanging out with drek off stream more lately. More fun that way. I just troll him.

mighty galleon

glossy wharf
#

He is

eager crag
#

Oh yeah, I like Khan too

glossy wharf
#

Avid ma boy

eager crag
#

Khan is great

glossy wharf
#

Khan is the reason i started streaming in january

#

He told me to do it

mighty galleon
#

i'd never stream lol

vocal shard
#

Shoved peanut butter jelly vhs tape into the vcr along with the game boy in that apartment map then left him without a way to take it out unless he changed out of his tiny model

glossy wharf
#

And now ez clap checkmark

eager crag
#

Yeeeee

#

Checkmark is surprisingly not hard to get anymore

#

Which is great

glossy wharf
#

mighty galleon
#

glossy wharf
#

Twitch partnership

eager crag
#

Partner on twitch

vocal shard
#

Partnered on twitch

eager crag
#

Stream lingo

mighty galleon
#

sooo many tings i dont understand lol

glossy wharf
#

Oath i love your emotes btw

vocal shard
#

It's ok

mighty galleon
#

but then again i dont go on those types of things

eager crag
#

Lol, Firstia did a killer job on them

glossy wharf
#

Ye

#

Wanted to comm her or poofy

eager crag
#

Probably the only reason I have half the subs I have

glossy wharf
#

Lul

vocal shard
#

I don't think I've seen your emotes oath but if firstia did them then they've gotta be good lol

eager crag
#

I've been trying to get poofy for a while now

glossy wharf
#

Firstia waitlist is longer than my vrc Blocklist

eager crag
#

Firstia won't do gasm emotes

#

And poofy does

vocal shard
#

Lol

eager crag
#

But poofy stays busy

glossy wharf
#

Poofy is always full on comms

vocal shard
#

@glossy wharf is there an easy way to make emission maps?

mighty galleon
#

makes me wanna see their art now lol

eager crag
#

That's how you know Firstia & poofy do quality work

glossy wharf
#

Oath check out maeriette on twitter, her comms are closed rn but she has a similar style

eager crag
#

They stay busy lol

vocal shard
#

Is it just a matter of blacking out the part of the texture you don't want emissions on?

glossy wharf
#

@vocal shard yes

vocal shard
#

Ok good

eager crag
#

I feel like I know who you're talking about

vocal shard
#

I'll start working on that. Thanks

#

Been wanting to optimize my mats better cause I always feel bad about how I've done them

eager crag
#

I have a few open slots, so I definitely need more done now. Though if comms are closed that's no good

glossy wharf
#

Ye she just started uni

celest kelp
#

confuzzled, smiles and nods

vocal shard
#

I always try minimizing them but the emissions stuff has always gotten me

glossy wharf
#

I can dm you the Sketches she made for me tho if you wanna see what she does

eager crag
#

Up to you, though I'll have to add you

#

I never check my requests

#

To many to sort through

mighty galleon

glossy wharf

viscid seal
#

vrchat has killed my sleep pattern this year

vocal shard
#

9/10 times I'm on vrchat asleep

mighty galleon
#

eager crag
#

Lakuza!

viscid seal
#

Hey Oath 😁

eager crag
#

You have no idea how often I hear that sean haha

mighty galleon
#

eager crag
#

That or "girl, your thicker than a bowl of oatmeal"

mighty galleon
#

soo many people ask me every day "what happened to your other hand" since my avatar is a amputee

viscid seal
#

what happened to it?

glossy wharf
#

Dmd you

vocal shard
#

It got outta hand

mighty galleon
#

"i lost it while fisting 2b in the ass"

viscid seal
#

😏

vocal shard
#

Omfg

viscid seal

viscid seal

eager crag
vocal shard
#

viscid seal
#

mighty galleon
#

xD

viscid seal
vocal shard
#

Some say it's still in 2b to this day.

eager crag
#

Oh lord

vocal shard
#

Which one, no one knows

mighty galleon
#

but yeah my avatar so many people ask about the nub and so many people say "OH MY GOD, you puppet talks for you!"

#

its like "well yeah"

eager crag
#

Now I'm curious

round eagle
#

"Thats the point!"

mighty galleon
#

about my avatar?

eager crag
#

Yes lol

mighty galleon
#

well maybe in the future you can see the drawing

vocal shard
#

I think I can atlas my model down to under a half dozen mats now

viscid seal
#

puppet avatars are fun

mighty galleon
#

but the drawing is what its suppost to look like, the avatar in vrchat doesnt have the right clothing and stuff, but gets the general idea across

eager crag
#

We'll that's still something at least

mighty galleon
#

im saving to get it made

#

b/c im tired of the halfed assed general idea xD

glossy wharf
#

Sean

mighty galleon
#

yes?

eager crag
#

Well there's a few great artists in the community who could totally get it done right

glossy wharf
#

Dm me your pic

mighty galleon
#

ok

glossy wharf
#

If i like it ill make it.

mighty galleon
#

well if you want but i'ts kinda complicated xD

glossy wharf
#

Ive done comms for the big rp groups its not a biggie

mighty galleon
#

ok

#

i mostly get them done b/c like ive said before, they're based off nightmares and getting them made and seeing them in person helps me cope with my dreams xD

#

plus lots of people seem to like the looks of the people from my nightmares

vocal shard
#

That's a neat idea

mighty galleon
#

im a person who faces my fears

glossy wharf
#

Aery

vocal shard
#

Hi aery

glossy wharf
#

You trashbin

vocal shard
glossy wharf
#

mighty galleon
#

glossy wharf

vocal shard
glossy wharf
#

vocal shard
#

true true

#

clapped = get rekt kid

#

mighty galleon
#

vocal shard
#

glossy wharf

mighty galleon

viscid seal
#

umbral reef
#

@eager crag Drink loads of water bud

eager crag
#

My memory sucks, I'll forget this whole conversation by tomorrow

mighty galleon
#

aw no fun

#

wont remember my typo

viscid seal
#

I don't know how people stay up so long and 24 hour streams too

#

I remember you did one recently XD

#

that would kill me 😵

umbral reef
#

And its had to forget best husbando oclac unity_chan_dab GWoooKarenSugoi

eager crag
#

Yeah, it was exhauating

mighty galleon
#

oclac

eager crag
#

Exhausting*

mighty galleon
#

you're def best husbando

umbral reef
#

Well for an full day again so yea

twin jacinth
#

i can't be up for more than like 20 hours before i feel like dying
I think i've only been up 24 hours once but i was on The Gathering

eager crag
#

It'll be a while before I do it again

viscid seal
#

I can stay up till like 2am and then struggle to stay awake at work the next day 😂

mighty galleon
#

i remember being up for 5 days once

viscid seal
#

but longer than that and its a nightmare trying not to headbutt the keyboard at work

eager crag
#

Well I'm lucky enough that this is my job

viscid seal
#

and fall asleep

#

tea/coffee doesn't help me in those situations

eager crag
#

Though the feeling of waking up late in the afternoon still sucks..

#

I can't even drink coffee

#

Without getting sick

viscid seal
#

yeah, feels like the entire day has gone to waste

#

if i miss the morning

twin jacinth
#

I don't drink coffee tea or energy drinks
only up untill max 1 to get a minimum of 6-7 hours of sleep

quartz basin
#

You guys all need a job

umbral reef
#

@eager crag Gotta limit the intake and start looking at eating less fat/salty food

viscid seal
#

I need 6-7 hours to be ok

eager crag
#

Twitch & YouTube is my job @quartz basin

viscid seal
#

but this year thanks to vrchat it keeps being 4-5 hours sleep

#

so its been difficult at work for months

mighty galleon
#

lakuza

umbral reef
#

Meanwhile i need atleast 8 hours to be anything close to nice IRL

mighty galleon
#

i suggest less life

eager crag
#

Anything less than 6 hours sleep isn't enough for me

twin jacinth
#

yeah same here, it's the limit before i reach the point where i can barely be up at work

quartz basin
#

Alright, first off, you probably eat more useless carbs than you consume useless fat.

mighty galleon
#

i need at least 3 hours

umbral reef
#

Anything less and im grumpy AF untill it suddenly changes

quartz basin
#

So first, shrink down your useless carb intake.

eager crag
#

If I only get 5 hours of sleep or less then I wanna destroy everyone I interact with

viscid seal
#

XD

eager crag
#

It's awful

mighty galleon
#

destroy me oath~!

quartz basin
#

Also the human body needs atleast 7 hours of sleep a day to funktion properly.

twin jacinth
#

''Senpai destory me''*

quartz basin
#

You guys are killing yourself

mighty galleon
#

sails i can live off of 3 hours

#

its easy

eager crag
#

I think when you took me on your map tour I had barely enough sleep haha

quartz basin
#

You cannot

#

Your future self will strangle you for that

twin jacinth
#

it differs from person to person i guess?
it's not the same for everyone

mighty galleon
#

then my future self can go fuck himself xD

viscid seal
#

we need an invention that puts us to sleep for like 5 minutes and has the effect of 7 hours sleep

eager crag
#

My future self will probably wanna strangle me for plenty of different reasons

quartz basin
#

Sleep is pretty much the same for every human being.

mighty galleon
#

nah saisl

#

not true

eager crag
#

Lack of sleep is only one is many reasons

#

One of*

mighty galleon
#

some people work better on 6 hours of sleep and some people work better on 10 hours of sleep

twin jacinth
#

While i do feel the effects of 1-2 hours less or more sleep some people might not

quartz basin
#

Dude, only because you think after 3 hours of sleep and you just stay awake is more than enough?

umbral reef
#

@eager crag just dont overwork yourself and force yourself to make content for the fans

quartz basin
#

I'm pretty sure your mental fitness suffers immensly from that.

eager crag
#

I try not to, but sometimes you really do gotta force yourself

mighty galleon
#

well sails, not everyone is the same, some people require more sleep the others and some people require less

eager crag
#

It's a job just like anything else is

round eagle
#

Per what oath said, see 24 hour stream

mighty galleon
#

my mental fitness is fine too

umbral reef
#

Forcing to make something you enjoy (doing the grind work like editing) =/= the same as forcing to make specific content for fans

quartz basin
#

Yes, that is why there is a span of 7 - 9 hours of sleep a human being needs.

umbral reef
#

Look at what naggzz recently did- Being burned out o the same content isnt good for anyone

eager crag
#

I only wish it were just streaming I had to worry about

quartz basin
#

Get atleast 7 hours. You minimize the risk of future diseases, too.

eager crag
#

Video editing is rough

umbral reef
#

Video editing is an pain indeed

mighty galleon
#

eh nah ima sleep at weird hours

eager crag
#

And yeah, Nagzz for hardcore burnt out

mighty galleon
#

i've been like that since i was a kid lol

twin jacinth
#

Some people don't need that much sleep Sails
do a bit research on it and you'll find that some people can sleep less without any side effects

eager crag
#

His following expected too much from him

mighty galleon
#

exactly

quartz basin
#

Lack of sleep raises the risk of diabetes, lowers your immune system so you will catch a cold more easily

mighty galleon
#

isnt there a person who actually doesnt sleep at all?

umbral reef
#

Well- He had an fairly immature audience and they always expect the same 'lore' video things even though his passion was with exploring the game, having real fun and making highly edited video's

#

Its not odd he just said fuck it and focuses on fully the thing he likes

eager crag
#

Honestly I'm happy for him

umbral reef
#

And even more, i have insane respect for him for doing it- Its not easy to make that call

eager crag
#

He's doing that he wants to do

twin jacinth
#

While that's true for most people Sails, there's a few exceptions.

#

DEC2 mutation

viscid seal
#

yeah, do what you love and that will be visible through the stuff you make

mighty galleon
#

i dont require much sleep

viscid seal
#

do what you hate, its just a daily grind and you'll be watching the clock more often

eager crag
#

I know he'll be fine

#

He has a great community behind him

vocal shard
#

I did 1 24hr stream lol

#

Never again

#

Was fun though

mighty galleon
#

i'd get way to bored to do that kasu

#

i usually get bored after 3 hours

eager crag
#

I just hope to still see him every so often

vocal shard
#

Vrchat full body the entire time

umbral reef
#

Boi even more streamers invading GWchiakiVanillaPray

#

What is this

quartz basin
#

Well, I just want you to remember the next time you lie in the hospital for whatever reason that maybe, just maybe you needed to sleep some more.

#

Or you just having a mental breakdown/burnout

mighty galleon
#

nah sails

eager crag
#

It obviously won't be the same because he's not doing the rp stuff anymore, or at least what he did

#

But we had fun

mighty galleon
#

i only went to the hospital for eating spoiled food all the time lol

round eagle
#

Still fun

vocal shard
#

Nagzz... I forget his vrc name

#

Met him once

eager crag
#

I still have footage to use from the last we interacted

#

It's Joey Bagels

vocal shard
#

Right

#

Nice guy

eager crag
#

Very nice guy

twin jacinth
#

Ooof Sails don't be ignorant, there's actualy something called DEC2 mutation that reduces the required amout of sleep your body needs
it is different for everyone but for some people they can sleep 3-4 hours and live just as good as a normal person with 7-9 hours.

round eagle
#

Jesus, wall of text

eager crag
#

I keep forgetting I need to dm him back..

vocal shard
#

More than 5 or 6 hours and it's too much sleep for me

eager crag
#

He sent me one a week ago & I forgot about it..

umbral reef
#

Dm him right now and say you respect his decision. Im sure he would love that shit

#

Just make sure to add the special thing 👀

eager crag
#

Oh I already told him that

I do hate it though when i do sleep maybe an hour too much and I'm just as tired as I would have been if I slept under the normal amount

celest kelp
#

I must have it then

#

cause I sometimes have days where I sleep a few hours and turn out fine o ^o

eager crag
#

It's more-so regarding his upcoming charity stream he's doing

viscid seal
#

for me, I'm usually ok if its the first day or 2

mighty galleon
#

i oversleep sometimes just b/c i want to see the nightmare till the end

viscid seal
#

after that the tiredness hits like a brick wall

umbral reef
#

Welp time for this cunt to build an game without knowing anything about programing of that level for school GWnanamiRankoPog !

twin jacinth
#

Feel you sean, i have very vivid dreams and sometimes i go back to sleep to ''finish'' it lol

umbral reef
#

So take care again

eager crag
#

One of the donation goals is apparebtly for him & I to cuddle for 10 mins or something..

mighty galleon
#

lol

vocal shard
#

Cute

mighty galleon
#

oath, GO SLEEP

eager crag
#

No not cute

umbral reef
#

Its cute :^)

eager crag
#

I tilt him

vocal shard
#

Yes cute

umbral reef
#

Just accept it

viscid seal
#

sounds awkward to do that for 10 minutes straight XD

eager crag
#

And based on rp, he's with Lanfear (my sister)

mighty galleon
#

i find the idea of oclac marrying svel as repulsive

eager crag
#

They cuddle! Not him & i

vocal shard
#

I do it all the time...when I sleep

twin jacinth
#

Onee-san
Yamete
Itai
... >.<

eager crag
#

Yes it's awkward lol. But it's supposed to be for charity. I dunno if I wanna say no to that

inner cape
eager crag
#

Because it's for a good cause..

mighty galleon
#

-pats ghosto-

vocal shard
#

But this is vrchat talk @inner cape

inner cape
#

🤢

eager crag
#

It is indeed VRChat talk

inner cape
#

All I see is people talking about rp

eager crag
#

Ehhh, half-rp

viscid seal
#

lets talk about mirrors then

vocal shard
#

Vrchat related

viscid seal
#

thats 90% vrchat

mighty galleon
#

those suck

vocal shard
#

Let's talk about #1 vrc mirror strimmer lawl

mighty galleon
#

most mirriors cause lag when i look at them or look away from them

vocal shard
#

Really? When you look away from them?

mighty galleon
#

yeah

eager crag
#

So you lag regardless?

mighty galleon
#

like when its exiting my view it lags for a second

eager crag
#

Ohhhh

vocal shard
#

That makes no sense...

mighty galleon
#

like the pugs mirrior, it lags for a second when i look at it, and it lags for a second when i look away from it

vocal shard
#

Oh the pugs mirror is really bad for that

mighty galleon
#

idk how else to explain it

eager crag
#

I think the pug lags for like everyone now

vocal shard
#

Cause it has an area where it turns on and off

mighty galleon
#

only the mirrior

viscid seal
#

I personally prefer the button for mirrors instead of auto toggle, in case someone just wants to stand next to a friend and not have the mirror turn on

vocal shard
#

Same

eager crag
#

Yeah

#

Better to have a choice

viscid seal
#

^_^

mighty galleon
#

why does almost everyone mirrior hog the pugs mirrior anyways

vocal shard
#

For such a small mirror the pug hits computers hard

#

Cause it's small and the only one not in a gross bathroom

mighty galleon
#

forgot there were bathrooms...

vocal shard
#

Who wants to stand in a bathroom

#

Gross

eager crag
#

Sounds like a great time tbh

mighty galleon
#

almost as great as standing in my room looking at a wall

#

and people judging me

vocal shard
#

Lol more fun when you see magic kappa screaming in a stall after having things done that shouldn't be spoken of

eager crag
#

Dude

#

Magic kappa

#

Is crazy

vocal shard
#

I went to a map and he was on the floor screaming

eager crag
#

People Won't leave me alone about him

mighty galleon
#

is that another person or somrthing

vocal shard
#

After apparently having his head forced in a toilet to go down on someone

eager crag
#

Yeah, he's another content creator

round eagle
#

Kappa is scary

#

Very...

vocal shard
#

Was screaming on the ground like he was dying lol

mighty galleon
#

i really dont know any of the vrchat people

eager crag
#

Both the videos of mine he was in

#

Got over

#

100k views

#

People love the guy

vocal shard
#

Cause he's so far out there

mighty galleon
#

i think i only know mattpatt b/c he got pissed b/c i didnt pay him attention

eager crag
#

He deserves to be bigger than he is

vocal shard
#

Magic?

round eagle
#

Ye.

eager crag
#

But it's like, he doesn't put himself out there

round eagle
#

He had a twotch and shruff

eager crag
#

As much as he could

mighty galleon
#

i told him to go away when i was in a convo with someone else b/c he was bugging us

viscid seal
#

first time i'm hearing that name too

twin jacinth
#

Same

vocal shard
#

Hey is anyone having problems with cats v0.11.0

viscid seal
#

I might have seen a vid of his but the name doesn't ring a bell right now

vocal shard
#

Honestly a lot of streamers should be bigger than they should but people just watch whoevers on the like top 5-10 of the list

eager crag
#

He's goofball

#

A goofball*

vocal shard
#

Like it’s extremely buggy and the fix model option doesn’t even work at times

#

With a drugged rainbow loli

umbral reef
#

@vocal shard Most have the same content so ....

#

At the same time

#

Its not /that/ strange

viscid seal
#

tbh, I've only started meeting streamers in the past 2-3 months

round eagle
#

Magic, while funny, scares me because the first time i met him in VRC it was very... BAD TOUCH

viscid seal
#

so I'm quite new to it all (in terms of knowing who's who)

eager crag
#

He's really random

vocal shard
#

That's the other problem honestly. Too many streamers hang out together so naturally one gets more viewers

#

Magic is pure random lol

mighty galleon
#

well, been here since christmas last year

vocal shard
#

The purest form of it

#

Anyway if anyone has the old version of cats 0.10.0 I need it cause 0.11.0 is giving me problems

viscid seal
#

yeah i joined in December too, just after christmas thanks to the meme explosions

umbral reef
#

Well that is far from odd because its easier to find other streamers if your numbers are higher and more well known with the community. And for those its ofetn there job so they help there job...

viscid seal
#

But I 've spent more time in unity than I have inside vrchat

umbral reef
#

@vocal shard Join there discord and ask for help or mention Hotox

mighty galleon
#

i dont like memes sooo

eager crag
#

I probably started playing late October

viscid seal
#

Most of my time in vrchat has been spent testing or giving tours of my world

twin jacinth
#

I joined in like Septemeber last year so i've here for around a year now

umbral reef
#

Tell the bby i said hi

viscid seal
#

I miss world hopping daily

eager crag
#

I dunno, I need sleep

mighty galleon
#

i found this game through a ahem adult game discord

vocal shard
#

I spend most of my time sleeping in VR lately

eager crag
#

It was fun chatting

umbral reef
#

Take care

viscid seal

Good night

Gonna drive home now. I hope my friend is still on when I get home

mighty galleon
#

drive safely

vocal shard
#

Never

mighty galleon
#

jufo, ever have a dream you cant tell the difference from reality and dream?

#

those suck

vocal shard
#

I had a dream that caused me to not know if vr was real or not when I woke up in vr

mighty galleon
#

well mine are usually nightmares sooooo

#

its worse

twin jacinth
#

Oh yeah i do a lot
I have memory of dreams that i think is real and i ask my family about it and they're like ''no it's not true''
also i never have nightmares anymore

calm jay
#

Fuckin magickappa

mighty galleon
#

i remember having a nightmare about something trying to kill me, and it was in my room, i woke up, and i was in my room, couldnt tell what was dream or not, then i went to sleep and the dream started off where i left it

#

it was terryfing b/c i wasnt able to tell when i was awake or asleep or what was real

viscid seal
#

sleep paralysis is fun

twin jacinth
#

Yeah, those dreams are really scary
like i do have dreams that is ''scary'' but i can't consider them nightmares as i don't feel scared when waking up nor panic
have you ever had sleep paralysis?

viscid seal
#

really likes to mess with your head

twin jacinth
viscid seal
#

XD

mighty galleon

sleep paralysis is terryfing in the right cercumstances

Hey, anyone with an Oculus here? This might be a silly question but I preffer to look dumb than to fuck this up.
So I'm going to get an Oculus Rift soon, and I was checking the requirements to see if my computer would be enough. In the specs list, right under the graphics card there's something called "alternative graphics card", does anyone know what does this mean? Is it something I should worry about?

floral aspen
#

Does it say anything else?

round eagle
#

Chances are a modded card

#

Maybe custom parts

floral aspen
#

Run dxdiag and post what it says

unkempt tinsel
#

Oh I meant the recommended specs list on the site, not something on my computer

#

All it says is this:

Graphics card: NVIDIA GTX 1060/AMD Radeon RX 480 or superior
Alternative graphics card: NVIDIA GTX 970/AMD Radeon R9 290 or superior

floral aspen
#

That should handle VR fairly well. What kind of course do you have?

plush nymph
#

is it reccomended vs minimum

unkempt tinsel
#

Nope, the minium specs are somewhere else, this is under "recommended specs"

#

I got a GTX 1070, that should suffice, right?

floral aspen
#

Yes

unkempt tinsel
#

Alright, thanks! I just got confused when I saw it twice but with lower specs

pseudo bobcat
#

Make sure your USB controller is supported as well. My motherboard has USB 3.0 slots, but the controller is unsupported so I had to buy and install a separate PCI-E USB extension card

floral aspen
#

If you wanna be sure then just run dxdiag like I said. It will show you your specs

unkempt tinsel
#

I know my specs as I built it myself, but I will check the USB controllers as soon as I get home

floral aspen
#

Then why were you checking a website for what graphics card you had?

unkempt tinsel
#

No no, I was checking which one I needed

floral aspen
#

Ohhh okay

unkempt tinsel
#

Anyways, thanks for the help and the tips ^^

floral aspen
#

Np

vocal shard
#

I just checked my rank

#

Im a trusted

#

Hell yeah

shy nest
floral aspen
#

So am I

vocal shard
#

Yeet

#

Now people will know im a fucking loser

shy nest
#

im a user sansundertale expecting to be blocked by default feelsbadman

floral aspen
#

Oof

warped urchin
#

Maybe my vet rank carries over

quartz basin
#

So, is the update already live? Where do I check my rank status?

floral aspen
#

No it's not sails

#

It's only in beta

quartz basin
#

Vrchat is still in closed-beta so that's no argument

warped urchin
#

What

shy nest
#

open beta

warped urchin
#

^

#

Lol

#

Sails you got me hella confused when you said that.

tacit plank
#

Read the announcement, the closed beta opened

shy nest
#

opt into open beta in steam, launch game, open menu and find out rank

tacit plank
#

You can still see your rank in the API, actually you could do that even a year ago

quartz basin
#

What's the difference at this point? It's still unoptimized garbage.

shy nest
#

yikes

#

why are you here then

#

fuck off

quartz basin
#

What? You usually don't answer a simple question with that much hate.

tacit plank
#

If you don't like it, it's quite stupid to stay

shy nest
#

? you answered with some passive aggressive shit

quartz basin
#

Oh no, the passive aggressive misunderstanding.

shy nest
#

forsenK yeah sure dude whatever

vocal shard
#

@tacit plank how can you check rank in the API?

quartz basin
#

So, can I get an answer. What's the difference at this point between the closed beta and open beta?

vocal shard
#

@quartz basin closed=invite only, open= have at it

shy nest
#

well the fact that there is no closed beta right now?

tacit plank
#

When you log in on the website, you access a page which is something like api.vrchat.cloud/auth, go to that one manually

#

It should show up in the network tab of the browser console (F12)

vocal shard
#

Ah ok

tacit plank
#

That wasn't your question though sails

#

It was "How do I check my API rank?" and then "lol I don't care anyways because my hardware sucks"

vocal shard
#

So similar to how you can check who's blocked you

tacit plank
#

Yeah

vocal shard
#

Thanks

quartz basin
#

Forget what I asked, got the terms mixed up

floral aspen
#

Yeah, the closed beta was done away with since they didn't really do anything with it

quartz basin
#

Still DeeJay, you should see a doctor. You've got lots of pent up stress going on.

tacit plank
#

Forget? So you don't want an answer?

wide quail
#

Is there a veteran tag?

tacit plank
#

Yeah

floral aspen
#

Yes

wide quail
#

How do you see it?

shy nest
#

not really, I'm just a piece of shit by nature

warped urchin
#

Lol

floral aspen
#

Idk what the requirements are though. I didn't get it and I've been here a year and have hundreds if not thousands of hours of playtime

tacit plank
#

Idk if the staff wants me to share the URL

warped urchin
#

Don't even need that link

floral aspen
#

They don't care if you use the api

tacit plank
#

Link is the easiest

wide quail
#

Dm me the link

floral aspen
#

As long as it's not for malicious purposes

warped urchin
tacit plank
#

Yeah good point. Log in on the site and then check this page: https://vrchat.net/api/1/users/USERNAME/name

warped urchin
#

This one is the one for you

tacit plank
#

Beat me by a second, shit

#

You win this round

warped urchin
#

Scroll to the bottom after logging in

#

And it willl be the last tag

vocal shard
#

(you need to log in before accessing theses links)

tacit plank
#

Hey wait, I posted another URL

warped urchin
#

Remember it's offset by one

#

So trusted is lower

#

Vet is lower

tacit plank
#

auth is your personal one

warped urchin
#

Legend is vet

tacit plank
#

You need tag legend to get in-game vet title, yeah

warped urchin
#

Not sure if this is gonna chance and you also aren't on your correct tags regardless

#

As Ron mentioned yesterday that these are not final and the tags are still being worked on.

unkempt tinsel
# 
"tags":["system_avatar_access","system_world_access","system_trust_basic","system_feedback_access","system_trust_intermediate","system_trust_known","system_trust_trusted"]```
Does this mean my rank is trusted?
shy nest
#

known

warped urchin
#

For some reason it's offset by one

shy nest
#

its offset by one

unkempt tinsel
#

Oh oof

warped urchin
#

It's confusing but that's gonna change I'd assume

shy nest
#

I have known yet im intermediate (user)

unkempt tinsel
#

Well I can't really complain I guess

shy nest
tacit plank
#

I don't mind that it's offset by 1

#

When we use the API like this, I think that we have to take responsibility for any misunderstanings

floral aspen
#

Yeah it's not final murakumo

warped urchin
#

And also the tags you have are probably gonna be reset to something more along what it should be

#

At least according to Ron

shy nest
#

that'd be nice, would like to not be user

odd beacon
#

I logged in, but I still can't see my rank, seemingly

warped urchin
#

Did you use the link I sent?

odd beacon
#

Although I opened it before I logged in, then I logged in and refreshed that page, should I clear my cookies/cache or something?

#

I'm blind and didn't read the "don't open this before you log in" part

tacit plank
#

Refreshing should work, are you getting "invalid credentials"?

odd beacon
#

"No API key provided"

tacit plank
#

Try logging into api.vrchat.cloud first then

odd beacon
#

Did that, still get the message

#

I'll try it on my phone

sonic verge
#

i wonder if its wise to post a slightly lewd picture of vrchat in the server

opaque atlas
#

why dont you guys just look at your rank in game?

odd beacon
#

Not at home currently

tacit plank
#

I want lewd pics

#

DM please

sonic verge
#

lol

opaque atlas
#

just wait until you're home. let it be a surprise 😛

odd beacon
#

but how am i supposed to determine how sharp my pitchfork should be without my gaming pc?

#

Got it working, logged in on api.vrchat.cloud and replaced vrchat.com with the cloud version in the link from earlier

ember raptor
#

How do I go about applying to get my shader whitelisted

#

a lot of people use my toon shader

mighty galleon
#

no chance to stop it now then

twin jacinth
#

cant get it to work
the link thingy

vocal shard
#

nobody knows

shy nest
vocal shard
#

you'll have to wait for them to give more informations

shy nest
#

dont use that sites name

ember raptor
#

this sorta sucks

vocal shard
#

if they even release a white listed shader

#

for know it's still in the dark

shy nest
#

upload your shit to github

vocal shard
#

yeah, get your stuff on a github please

ember raptor
#

I put a lot of time into releasing quality stuff for everyone to use and now it's going to be blocked by default for most people

quartz basin
#

Kind of a bummer only being a "known" user even with 600+ hours clocked.

vocal shard
#

the website that you referenced isnt allowed here

quartz basin
#

Even though the rank is pointless to begin with!

vale palm
#

indicating 600 is a lot

vocal shard
#

time playing isnt a big factor if at all

#

and yes

shy nest
#

wtb transfer for my tf2 hours to vrchat

vocal shard
#

600 hours is actually a lot

vale palm
#

sure, in numbers its a lot, for vrchat users? nah

ember raptor
vocal shard
#

if you say so buddy

#

nice

quartz basin
#

Dude, I don't get wasted every weekend and pass out for several hours.

vocal shard
#

i can give people that link now

#

instead of the website bullshit one

shy nest
#

hmm, sucks the first thing that comes up is "that" site poi

vocal shard
#

yeah

vale palm
#

its not about passing out, its just that most big users have 2k+ hours locked

shy nest
#

will bookmark now for sure

vocal shard
#

every single person that got 2k hours or more that i know

#

were afk most of the time

#

sleeping

#

or just left the game running for hours

ember raptor
#

my shader does a lot of stuff but it only compiles what you use so it's still fast

quartz basin
#

Well, then it should play even more into my hands since I didn't use as much ressources as these guys with 2k+ play time.

ember raptor
#

unlike a lot of the other ones

vocal shard
#

i know your shader poiyomo

#

i used it a few time

twin jacinth
#

"tags":["system_avatar_access","system_world_access","system_trust_basic","system_trust_known","system_feedback_access"],"status":"active","statusDescription":""}

Did i do it right? o.O

vocal shard
#

it's really nice

#

i just hope that your shader and xiexie will be in the whitelist

shy nest
#

thats odd

#

you're missing intermediate jufo

quartz basin
#

@twin jacinth Yes, you're "just" a user.

shy nest
#

not sure how that works without you having that

vale palm
#

i.e. youre a basic bitch ;<

shy nest
#

very interesting

twin jacinth
#

Well that's weird lol

vocal shard
#

just a basic user

#

so by default with the normal preset safety

#

you can only exist and talk basically

#

nice

quartz basin
#

I can already feel the beta user uprising.

#

The colour war is coming.

#

Hide your children!

twin jacinth
#

Hmm
I've been playing for like 100-200 hours on this account
uploaded 1 avatar

ember raptor
#

people already run up to me and make fun of me for not being veteran

vocal shard
#

veteran and trusted user doesnt have any difference in the presets safety

tall tide
#

Dw poiyomi u vet in my book thumbsupp

quartz basin
#

It's not even about the safety features anymore.

ember raptor
#

lol

quartz basin
#

People boost with their tag colour.

odd beacon
#

i quite like xiexe's shader, but i'll try yours out some time

ember raptor
#

it's just a race war now

shy nest
#

👀 woah

quartz basin
#

Poi said it!

twin jacinth
#

Well this is a bit frustrating
''Basic bitch''
Lmao xD
i guess it's since i changed account when i had like 400 hours

quartz basin
#

Denounce him to basic user!

ember raptor
#

my shader is pretty different from xiexe's

shy nest
#

I wonder how many "friends" i need to make to rank up

ember raptor
#

but it has some good results

#

depends what you want

twin jacinth
#

i only have 50-60 ish
but i don't add randoms, i get to know them then add em :P

quartz basin
#

@shy nest Don't fall for the trap. That is what VRchat is promoting. Just add every random stranger and you're fine~

#

But why should we do that?!

#

I ask you! Why?!

tall tide
#

I guess I should accept all of my friend requests, I also see there is something about uploading your creations. Upload a map or two?

shy nest
#

ill add every player in the game

lost agate
#

excuss meh i have 2200+ hours, 20+ avatars, 3 public worlds and several in development. I think i won the title for basic user >:3

tall tide
#

I’ll make an avatar map huehuehue

shy nest
#

so at any one time I'll have a couple thousand online

#

that'll make browsing for people easy

#

launch the game and spend the next half an hour scrolling to an actual friend

quartz basin
#

Yikes

ember raptor
#

^

#

I get friended by a million randoms who have shader questions

tall tide
#

That’s why you categorize and set your status to DND

quartz basin
#

Do not dick?

lost agate
#

i removed 250 friend request recently. Thank god for the new site >.>

quartz basin
#

I rather stay a basic known bitch than have a messy friends list.

shy nest
#

if they're in the same instance i accept, go somewhere else and remove them

odd beacon
#

The "only compile what you need" thing is neat, especially as far as import times go

twin jacinth
#

System might be flawed
I'd not assume that your rank is right at this point
wait for it to be released

vocal shard
#

can't wait for the fiasco when the system goes live

ember raptor
#

12000+ people have downloaded my shaders is that enough for a whitelist

tall tide
#

Ayyyy

#

The problem is.. this legit won’t stop anything

quartz basin
#

Well, Poi. You mean for one version or for all combined?

#

Because that might inflate your numbers.

ember raptor
#

multiple shaders

vocal shard
#

@ember raptor 12k+ people probably downloaded a screenshake shader

#

does it need to be whitelisted ?

shy nest
#

Pog yes /s

quartz basin
#

Yeah, the ame people probably download different version.

ember raptor
#

mine is a toon shader

#

I don't make cancer

vocal shard
#

not the point, the number of download probably won't matter

quartz basin
#

I mean, I like your shader and it totally should be whitelisted.

vocal shard
#

it's more like if people actually ask for it

#

if we are even allowed for it

ember raptor
#

it's fairly actively used

quartz basin
#

But by the speed the devs are working, this could take some time.

vocal shard
#

maybe they will have their own list

#

and fuck you for anything else

#

but there like 3 or 4 shaders that would be a good idea to white list

#

poiyomi, xiexie and vilar eye tracking

lost agate
#

my Skyrim mod has been downloaded 250K+ times, can it be whitelisted?

ember raptor
#

shatter wave def has the most downloads but I would never ask for that to be whitelisted

unkempt tinsel
#

Oh are they going to add a shader whitelist? That would be pretty nice as some are used A LOT, and it will just be a default shader plague otherwise

ember raptor
#

some shaders are being whitelisted by default

lost agate
#

oh gosh darnit. I make my own shaders all the time, so i cant use those either?

vocal shard
#

a shader white list is a bad idea IMO

shy nest
#

maybe shooting them an email might be a good idea if you havent already

vocal shard
#

but it doesnt matter anymore since it's actually a thing now

quartz basin
#

You can still use shaders, other people will just block them and you will look like plastic to them.

vocal shard
#

you can use your own shader

#

but people with the default settings wont see them

ember raptor
#

the main problem is that it'll revert to a shader uploaded at the time the patch was released

vocal shard
#

they will just see the standard shader

ember raptor
#

so if you get your shader whitelisted it's only that specific version

#

as far as I know

vocal shard
#

yep

#

exactly

ember raptor
#

which makes sense

#

but it's sorta annoying that you can only get your shaders updated when the game updates

#

not that mine is even whitelisted TheSaddest

so the models and worlds i dont have access to anymore due to data loss will all stop working?
this is fantastic, cant wait to lose 9 months of progress 😄

shy nest
#

why would the worlds be affected

floral aspen
#

All the new security features are for avatars, not worlds

tacit plank
#

From now on I will fight whoever tells me that Chrome is a good browser

lost agate
#

well as long as the worlds keep working its fine by me but a shame that my custom cubed shader wont work then as it is used on my main avatar to which i have no access anymore

quartz basin
#

Tell me a better browser.

tacit plank
#

Firefox

quartz basin
#

Yeah, no

shy nest
#

i would normally fight you about that but yikes the design looks like crap now

quartz basin
#

Hahahaha

#

nope

#

FireFox was good until they decided to become like Chrome.

lost agate
#

i use edge actually [not even kidding, let the storm begin]

quartz basin
#

Can we ban Quinix?

shy nest
#

living on the edge i see

#

I'm trying to get this picture from a site, but rightclick is disabled because Chrome is a little bitch, and the inspector goes to an empty div, and the web log doesn't show anything but .js files

odd beacon
#

What do you mean by "become like chrome"?

ember raptor
#

I base my browser choice on how many modern web features it supports

#

chrome is fine

quartz basin
#

Disable add-ons

#

Add-ons where the heart and soul of FireFox

odd beacon
#

I don't see how add-ons were disabled though?

lost agate
#

plox no, im just but a humble edge user T^T

tacit plank
#

So I'm looking at an image right now, and my dumb browser can't even tell there is one

ember raptor
#

google was funding mozilla wasn't it

quartz basin
#

They disabled non-approved add-ons

ember raptor
#

and now it stopped?

quartz basin
#

The ones which actually were really good.

floral aspen
#

eww, you use edge?

ember raptor
#

so mozilla is fucked

floral aspen
#

do yourself a favor and switch to firefox or chrome

ember raptor
#

opera has a lot of features but it's not for me

#

I'm always impressed by how much opera has

lost agate
#

google takes all metadata btw, have fun with that. they know where you are from google pictures and all the data provided from your non rooted android phone

quartz basin
#

Dude, everyone is spying on you.

vocal shard
#

so what ?

quartz basin
#

If you want to go undercover, use 10 different VPNs or don't use internet at all.

ember raptor
#

dude unless you're running a secure linux machine you might as well give up

vocal shard
#

what are they gonna do with that ?

tacit plank
#

Only if you give up and let them

vocal shard
#

go to your home to stab you ?

shy nest
#

😂 doesnt realize their ISP is spying on them

floral aspen
#

lol you think firefox isn't taking your metadata?

tacit plank
#

"Everyone else spies anyways" is just being weak and giving up

vocal shard
#

I have a solution everyone.

#

Don’t be online.

shy nest
#

lets turn off the internet

vocal shard
#

Exactly.

#

^^

shy nest
#

just unplug it from the wall

vocal shard
quartz basin
#

I never said I accept it but I'm living in the EU where fucking memes are illegal.

tacit plank
#

Firefox is 10 times better than Google, even if it collects a bit by default. But get a Firefox fork with the bullshit disabled and nothing will be collected

quartz basin
#

You tell me what options I have.

floral aspen
#

oof, rip Sails

vocal shard
#

illegal ?

modern sand
shy nest
floral aspen
#

he's referring to the new legislation that was just passed Svel

quartz basin
#

EU passed a law which filters everything you upload and decides, if content is original or not

lost agate
#

svelsien i swear to me mom OBAY

floral aspen
#

All copyrighted material will have to be filtered at upload time

vocal shard
#

Copyrighted material?

lost agate
#

lets take it to random

floral aspen
#

meaning meme's with copyrighted material also fall under the law

vocal shard
#

Are we talking about Copy righted avatars?

#

Oh~, Memes.

floral aspen
#

if the avatars are ripped from games, then yes

#

thing is though, something like avatars is a lot harder to enforce than memes

forest salmon
#

oof rip shaders and particles

quartz basin
#

They will use algorithms to determine what is original or not

#

And since Algorithms don't work, they will just block about anything.

#

EVEN if the author of this funny spicy meme is ok with everyone uploading it.

vocal shard
#

Blocks all avatars

floral aspen
#

lol have fun when the rest of the world decides that's bullshit and just blocks EU access to their sites

quartz basin
#

Just annex us, I'm just about done with this shit.

floral aspen
#

shaders and particles still work, it's just people have the option to turn them off now

forest salmon
#

^

quartz basin
#

It's weird. The first time I heard about the new update I was really excited but the more I read into it I just thought to myself "This can't end well".

#

Is this another social experiment where they give random colours to user to see if they cooperate, integrate or just have an all out colour war?

forest salmon
#

ohh boi in the same pool but just have 170h+, rip me it's a long way up

#

yeah same opinion here at least public will be halfway accessible now

floral aspen
#

Guys remember this is still in beta and the ranks aren't final

#

Also aren't the ranks offset by one right now? You might be a higher rank than you think

tacit plank
#

Your rank will be fine if you don't get blocked a ton

#

Basically, it should only punish you if you're malicious, otherwise you can do what you want

forest salmon
#

not really worried actually mostly happy tbh, just means I have to play more to reuse my uploaded content. And yes ranks are not yet set in stone

fair oasis
#

A

tacit plank
#

You won't have new user if you've played a while

#

But don't expect to get the legend tag without uploading content

forest salmon
#

I guess that's fair

floral aspen
#

yeah, I figured getting higher than trusted user would require uploading worlds

#

well, public worlds that is

#

I have a few private ones

quartz basin
#

So why not set ranks accordingly of what you do? "Visitor" "New User" Regular User" "Creator"?

tacit plank
#

What if you're multiple of them?

quartz basin
#

Highest one applies so you'll be creator

tacit plank
#

"Creator" warries too. I have a shitty maze world which I made as a joke, it's literally more than a kilometer on each side. Both me and Tupper are content creators, but I'm obviously not helping the game as much as he is

#

So in short, a number system is better than a boolean one

quartz basin
#

I mean, ranking system to begin with is flawed and only promotes exclusion.
