[cinder pier]

Oof

[fading wolf]

so 6969 had to do

[twin jacinth]

6969 lol

[cinder pier]

Xd

Lol

[fading wolf]

I did have 4200 for a while

[twin jacinth]

I like my 1209 Tag

[fading wolf]

but 6969 is more fun ;)

[verbal mural]

i prefer the tag i always had

which was 4768

[mighty galleon]

jamie add me in vrchat

[fading wolf]

I should probably put my VRC name in my nickname

Feel free to add me

[verbal mural]

my vrc name is the exact same as my name on here

[fading wolf]

I'll be on once FBT is fixed again haha

[verbal mural]

obviously its Linguni

[mighty galleon]

i need my avatars to be rigged ror fbt xD

[twin jacinth]

No need for me
I always use this name
never seen anyone or had the name taken before :P

[night lava]

[verbal mural]

i don't feel like getting FBT

not because its broken or anything

its just because of my room space, i don't feel like i could really use it

[fading wolf]

That's fair

[night lava]

understandable

[verbal mural]

and i've already spent enough when it comes to vr

cough cough 1000*

[twin jacinth]

i got it
disappointed
Its fun
but my avatar's proportions is not right and i can't fix it myself :(
I only use the avatar in my profile pic

[mighty galleon]

thats nothign

[night lava]

o o f

[fading wolf]

same actually

[verbal mural]

600 was the vive

400 was the oculus

i use the oculus nowadays, vive didn't fit me

[mighty galleon]

i only use male avatars xD

[fading wolf]

450 was the vive, 350 was FBT, and I spent like 200 back in the day to get a windows mixed reality

[night lava]

thats what i spent on mine, still waiting on it

im hype/worried

[fading wolf]

I made all of that money through avatar commisisons

🙃

[verbal mural]

i use roblox avatars most of the time on vrchat and usually like 1-4 people block me in the server

[mighty galleon]

had to buy a computer that could do vr, so that was 1.3k then had to get a vive and three trackers

[night lava]

understandable

[fading wolf]

understandable

[mighty galleon]

lots of money

[night lava]

jinx

[verbal mural]

understandable

[mighty galleon]

and i save to get avatars made

[fading wolf]

can't talk anymore

[night lava]

unjinx

[verbal mural]

rejinx

[fading wolf]

[night lava]

negajinx

[fading wolf]

[mighty galleon]

rin

[verbal mural]

megajinx

[night lava]

[twin jacinth]

If i change my avatar now people will be like ''Who are you?''
Never changed it >.<

Oh the VR?
I spent 1765 eur on that
Vive
FTB
GTX 1080

[fading wolf]

[raw lagoon]

still noting

[night lava]

my pc is too babu for vive and oculus, according to their standards

[verbal mural]

my pc can handle both

[night lava]

so wmr it is 🙃

[fading wolf]

same

[verbal mural]

even though oculus keeps saying i may experience poor preformance

[night lava]

what a naysayer

[verbal mural]

doesnt stop me from playing though

[night lava]

do you, tho

[mighty galleon]

rin

come here

[cinder pier]

Don't do it rin

[twin jacinth]

Don't do it
I've been locked up in a closest for a whole day

[hoary ridge]

People with legs can function now!

[fading wolf]

FINALLY

AHHHHHHHHHH

[neon flume]

less than 24hrs too, that was fast

[vocal shard]

Oh boi oh boi

[fading wolf]

I'm so hAPPY

[vocal shard]

good job devs

[kindred sand]

yays

[random whale]

Does anybody know how to get the approval to upload custom avatars? Is it just playing ~20 hrs.

Or, how do I know if my VrChat account and my steam account are linked so playing actually counts. ._.

[hoary ridge]

Now what other complaints will arise 🤔

[little rune]

[kindred sand]

now i just need a vr head set with body tracking and get ridd of my wierd crashes

[hazy marlin]

That was fast, thank youuu!!

[marsh bolt]

@random whale you have to play on your vrc account to be able to upload avatars and stuff

[velvet quarry]

Just going to steal this from @ruby needle

@random whale
Becoming verified by the trust system is based on reaching a not time based trust score, which's exact algorithm is unknown to prevent exploitation.

You presumably need to play the game in a normal manner with your VRChat account, walking around, meeting people and also making some friends. Idling won't help.
According to many responses in this discord, a rough estimate would be 20-40 hours, but big exceptions are possible.

Make sure you are not using a steam account because those can not be verified and continue playing the game until you get a notification or e-mail.

http://help.vrchat.com/knowledge_base/topics/why-cant-i-upload-avatars-or-worlds-yet

[covert chasm]

@neon flume It woulda been faster if Steam wasn't being a jerk last night. >:C

[random whale]

how do I play on my vrc account though, and not a steam account.

When I'm on vrchats website and click play it takes me to steam.

Thank you for that help by the way!

[umbral reef]

@covert chasm Just like boop its snoot next time

[solid pendant]

Thank you developers!

[velvet quarry]

You have to play the game through steam, but once you get ingame you can either log into a "Steam" account, or a "VRChat" account, these are seperate

[umbral reef]

@random whale Play on the steam launcher but log in with an VRC account

[vocal shard]

yo tupper, did you fix your bot ?

[marsh bolt]

good job devs xD

[random whale]

Ohhh gotcha. Thanks! (:

[velvet quarry]

If you have a set of 4 numbers / digits after your name ingame, you're using a steam account

[random whale]

now just to have my little sister play vr chat for me for 40 hours

[grave dagger]

Is FBT fixed for realsies?

[night lava]

for realsies

[vocal shard]

check #announcements

[grave dagger]

I saw

[umbral reef]

Nah it was all an prank

[velvet quarry]

Presumably

[vocal shard]

hours wont help u rank up @random whale

[umbral reef]

They got a YT channel and gotta get content one way or another

[grave dagger]

🙏

[night lava]

ranks also dont mean much :y

[maiden jewel]

oh my

the new sneaking animation breaks so many avatars

[night lava]

awwww yea

[umbral reef]

@night lava It kinda does if it means you cant upload yet

[night lava]

thats twue

[viral yacht]

@vocal shard how does hours not help you rank up? It says in the blog that one of the factors is determined on how time a user spends in VRChat

[vocal shard]

Being a low rank messes me up since I chat via finger pens that are blocked by default. Guess I'll need to grab a mic after all

tupper ignored me FeelsBadMan

[night lava]

ive heard ppl from 60 hrs to 250 hours be a green user, so i dont think its that big a factor @viral yacht

[vocal shard]

Standing or idling in a room (AFKing)
Uploading a large amount of low-effort content
Mass-friending large amounts of users of any Trust Rank```

The amount needed to rank up is not known. Heard of a guy that played 150 hrs since December who's still a new user

[opaque hawk]

MY TOILET SOUNDS ARE FIXED

[viral yacht]

Yeah we can only get a rough estimate. I was orange in the beta, but when it fully came out I dropped down to green lol

Only 143 hours played so I’ll have to do a lot more to rank back up I guess

[uncut bluff]

im at over 1000 hours of on an off play

[vocal shard]

Also what senpai pasted. You'll want to explore different worlds, friend people, upload stuff and whatnot to help rank.

[open hawk]

Is legacy animations still gone?

[vocal shard]

Basically there's a meta to this social game now which is pretty dumb lmao

[velvet quarry]

I don't think legacy animations will be coming back at any point.

[viral yacht]

Tbh I didn’t even know what a legacy animation was until I looked it up, and I’m still hella confused

[vocal shard]

it will not

way too much risks

[viral yacht]

So pens are classified as legacy animations?

[twin jacinth]

What the
Kill the Jufo? Nani
@mighty galleon

[umbral reef]

Tl;dr the old way of doing animations what was fairly easy to use

[night lava]

the rank meta, tier yourself

[vocal shard]

tupper, did you fix your bot ? reeee

[umbral reef]

The new ways allows most of the same thigns to be done but an large amount takes more effort

[fleet flicker]

Were all meta slaves

[viral yacht]

Ahhh okay. It seemed that none of my avatars were effected by the change, I think

I haven’t checked all of them

[vocal shard]

Nah pens are just particles I think? If you're high rank you're good. Just that particles are blocked on lower ranks by default

[umbral reef]

Well if they used the stuff and got uploaded before an specific date they are all fine

[slender barn]

I have a concern because a long time back I jumped into a world that had 5 people, the 5 people looked at me and it said I was reported and kicked me from the world. I think I jumped into a friends only portal or something. I hope that doesn't make me stay a low rank for a long time.

[vocal shard]

it doesnt do anything, johnny

[slender barn]

Yay!

[fleet flicker]

Some of my avatars turned into trophy wifes after the update cause shader stuff which is disappointing.

[velvet quarry]

If its your own shader, setting it up so that it properly does Fallback, you can atleast have some basic textures show up on it.

[vast obsidian]

Hey guys quick question, in order to reach the higher ranks of vrchat, do you have to be a vrchat account?

[viral yacht]

Kinda a feel bad moment for me

[umbral reef]

I think yea as steam accounts are guest accounts

Would be good to swap over anyway

[viral yacht]

Having my first custom avatar made took like I swear a week, it was a lot of work on top of my not knowing anything really and now that effort is kinda useless since I’m only a user

[fleet flicker]

It was using shaders other users made. Turns my whole avatar gold now since i got known user.

[vast obsidian]

I've been playing since December, steam account, obviously I can't upload stuff, have way too many friends to make a new account, and I'm stuck in "User" rank, oh well

[velvet quarry]

I'd recommend ripping that bandaid off sooner rather then later

[vast obsidian]

Unless there is a way to transfer friends?

[uncut bluff]

dang i mad my account 2nd day

made*

[velvet quarry]

Make a list of the friends you'd really want to keep and re-friend them, make them aware of the account change etc.

[vast obsidian]

But that still means I'm going to have to start from scratch

[vocal shard]

i remember devs transfering friends lists in the past. idk if they still will.

[umbral reef]

Fairly sure that was before the user boom

[uncut bluff]

^

[umbral reef]

Now there are so many users it would almost be a fulltime job

[opaque hawk]

Better the transition now than never

[vocal shard]

Enjoy the New User grind

[fleet flicker]

Yeah things were a lot smaller scale back before the December user boom

[vast obsidian]

I won't make a new account, I just find it kinda bullshit how just because I'm steam account I can't reach the higher ranks, I guess "User" is my new people

I hate all you other ranks from now on 😘

[viral yacht]

I remember playing when like no one had VR, it seemed rare to find someone actually using it. Now it’s almost like everyone has one, or at least a lot more

[vocal shard]

yep

[night lava]

thats progress, bby

[vocal shard]

and now i feel like that more and more people ahve FBT

most of my friend list have FBT

[velvet quarry]

Steam accounts should've honestly been removed a long time ago, or atleast renamed to "Guest" accounts, they cause more trouble then they help I feel.

[vocal shard]

and it just make me wish for one

[fleet flicker]

True. Even finding someone outside the old hub was a godsend

[night lava]

saaame svel

[viral yacht]

Yeah I’m buying one when I move at the end of this month hopefully

Almost feels weird not being able to move your legs

[vocal shard]

i'll buy one when i get my own place

i dont have enough space currently for it

[night lava]

worse is when you basically need a better pc and useable room for fbt

[viral yacht]

Also why I’m building a pc at the end of this month lol

How much “better” does the computer gotta be because I already have a beast basically

[umbral reef]

Like server room full

[night lava]

i think just better processor and graphics card for oculus/vive

which idk if i can manually replace them in my ibuypower pc

[fleet flicker]

For most pcs its not that you cant replace them but are the compatible with your current system.

[night lava]

that too

[fleet flicker]

Id love to upgrade my cpu but my motherboard isnt compatible with the newer processors so rip unless i get a new motherboard.

[finite kraken]

Has anyone test the full body fix yet?

[gloomy valve]

Question from a dumb guy...what does K.O.S mean?

[lilac swan]

"Kill On Sight"

[sterile drift]

Oof

[gloomy valve]

Ok. I thought they ment like crash but spelt with a k

[ivory folio]

Kiss on sight

[sterile drift]

So that means you're likely now gonna be targeted by some "vigilantes"

I was on a KOS list once

[gloomy valve]

Well i mean it sounds like you really had to piss someone off to do that

[ivory folio]

unless it's autismo gang kos

[sterile drift]

I didn't really make anyone mad, just some weird automated thing

[raw lagoon]

can anyone help with the vrchat is not responding message ?

[sterile drift]

@raw lagoon When is this happening?

[vocal shard]

That group had said they initially had some innocent people on the list, but they cleared that up...

[raw lagoon]

today

[static hemlock]

Lol

[sterile drift]

Be more descriptive

You say you "keep crashing"

In what situations do you crash?

[raw lagoon]

like not let me to a world

[sterile drift]

What kind of worlds are you trying to join

Really populated ones?

[raw lagoon]

anykind of worlds

[sterile drift]

"Lag Free" Box?

[raw lagoon]

like i say anykind of worlds

[kindred sand]

crashing too huh @raw lagoon

[sterile drift]

Try joining an empty world and see if you don't crash. If you still do, try clearing your cache or something

!cleancache

[floral flax]

You can clean cache by deleting everything within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat apart from output_log.txt and config.json if you have them

[sterile drift]

Not sure how it'll help but it's worth a shot

If that doesn't help either, try looking at #vrchat-support

[static hemlock]

I had a similar problem but my vrchat would turn black clearing cache and a computer restart did the trick if not reduce your resolution @raw lagoon

[vernal copper]

somebody wanna help make a cool particle system 4 my gun?

[zinc badger]

It will be useless depending on your rank

[vernal copper]

im max rank on vrchat

[zinc badger]

What kind of effect

Like

I can’t do bullets

Well I can but

[vernal copper]

[indigo fern]

[vernal copper]

[covert chasm]

[zinc badger]

I guess lemme open discord on my computer

[indigo fern]

:TupperHands:

[vernal copper]

ok

[neon flume]

Turn it off by moving to 🇨🇦

[zinc badger]

k

call me when ready

[umbral reef]

Turn it off by destroying all your local telephone poles

[indigo fern]

Down with the infrastructure

[umbral reef]

Riot!

[cinder pier]

Sounds like something out of farcry

[night lava]

people who do avatar commissions, what kinda things do ppl ask you to do that you can do? how long does it take to make a custom avatar if someone asked?

[vocal shard]

fascinating

[umbral reef]

Its best to ask this in the VRCtraders discord
Those are the fella's who do commission work, can find there server within #community-servers-old

[raw lagoon]

it did not work

[umbral reef]

What didnt

[indigo fern]

there is, in settings i think it was called advanced controls

[umbral reef]

But you cant use animations and walk at the same time anymore then

Its really worth learning the 'new' system if your an old old user

[night lava]

I was more curious than looking for a commission tbh

[raw lagoon]

!clearchace

[indigo fern]

!cleancache

[kind wedge]

@umbral reef it is worth it. I use it all the time

[indigo fern]

um, vrcbot is down?

its not online

like at all

[velvet quarry]

Well that's not good

Oh there it is

[indigo fern]

there he is

[neon flume]

!cleancache

[floral flax]

You can clean cache by deleting everything within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat apart from output_log.txt and config.json if you have them

[kind wedge]

You can use animations and walk at the same time with the advanced controls as well. If you do a gesture, then pull your trigger it stores that gesture into the trigger. Then you just hold the trigger down and walk

[umbral reef]

Same- Took me like an full week to properly understand it but i never randomly fly off now

[indigo fern]

even bots need to sleep i guess

[whole lodge]

Is there an easy way to remove that animation from trigger? @kind wedge

[kind wedge]

Hold the middle of your trackpad and pull the trigger again

That resets the trigger

[vocal shard]

^

[indigo fern]

it does take some time to get use to, but it feels nice after you get a hang of it

because you dont have to click on the pad as often

[vocal shard]

The president just @everyone

HI

[rigid crescent]

I wish that was an instant kick/ban from vrchat lol

[vocal shard]

im chara

Hi

Hi

Don’t send links...

dang it

it was a gif

[tall storm]

[vocal shard]

^

i cant send my gif

cuz you cant add pictures

We know

[rigid crescent]

That's probably intentional

[vocal shard]

work

[tall storm]

It was intentionally removed.

[rigid crescent]

It's not broken, it works. You're just not supposed to do it.

[vocal shard]

oh ok

[severe loom]

why do i appear pink to some people in rank ?

[neon flume]

If you figure this out let me know, a few of my friends including me all had pink name tags according to some other users.

[safe yacht]

There appears to be a world that I cant join. Every time I try to join it, I just get a black screen and the game seems to freeze.

[viral yacht]

Pink name tags? That seems sick

[kindred sand]

i get that too it says timed out or just black screen untill i restart it

i like pink

[severe loom]

@viral yacht check youre whisper 😮

[steep turret]

wish I had a pick nametag shit

[dense ivy]

Am I the only one you just jumps without me actually doing anything?

[vocal shard]

That moment when you have vrchat for more then a year and you’re not even a trusted user.
; (

Do I need to jump 2000 more times to go from known user to trusted user?

It makes no difference the ranks. just play as normal

It does to my pride .........and people’s custom settings

[steep turret]

only thing I turned off for everyone was particles. cool or not I'm not a fan normally

[vocal shard]

I’m hoping no one took my complaint seriously lol

[steep turret]

I'm sure someone did lol

[vocal shard]

Hurt Pride I can understand, but I got over that during the open beta. Your friend will still see everything. Anyone who isn't a p***y will have the settings turned off. And if your want to be creative, just cover your avatar with an invisible sign to enable shaders if they have yours disabled

Lol

Oof

mate

You just did a big whoosh

Been dealing with a bunch is serious ones on Reddit and steam forums, can't tell a meme anymore

Well.......

That’s reddit though

Reddit is hell

While 4chan.....is final hell

Lol

Musically is non-existence and should stay that way forever

[onyx forge]

i like the new system its really cool, but it is kinda sad how there are some people who block everything on people below trusted

[vocal shard]

Yee

[steep turret]

I'm not surprised

[vocal shard]

Also minor complaint but I can’t pick out my friends from crowds anymore

Used to see a big icon above there name

Yeah yeah I know friends are yellow

But most maps make yellow look invisible

Hell sometimes I don’t even see the colors till I look closer.

[steep turret]

theyve got a friend icon still

[vocal shard]

Yeah but it’s very tiny

just block everyone else

ezpz

And not noticeable from far away

[steep turret]

yup

idk I haven't had an issue with it

[vocal shard]

Nah man that’s rude and destroys the purpose of vrchat

Mhmm

Anyway. For me if maybe there could be a setting to make the name tag colors and friends tags more noticeable it would be nice to see.

I'll just use the tags as a way find newer players to make friends with... Other than that. I don't care about the ranks

I just realized something

We know who the noobs are now

[steep turret]

ranks shouldn't mean anything tbh

[vocal shard]

Yep

Making them easy target for trolls. Oof

Nope this is vidya. Rank means everything. Noobs will suffer it’s in there nature

[steep turret]

I feel like purples are gonna be harrased the most

[vocal shard]

Probably. Getting constant friend request from people trying to boost

[rigid crescent]

I've seen some known and unders get salty over some jokes

[devout ember]

I've noticed that Orange ranks have been the Worst offenders for public trolling.

[steep turret]

idk wish my purple rank was pink. that's all

[vocal shard]

Anyway. Maybe at some point in an update we can change the colors of the ranks cause I can barely notice yellow and that’s annoying me. Or make the tags a tiny bit bigger or the colors a little bigger.

It’s just hard for me to pick out friends in a crowd is all

[steep turret]

changing would make the colors now pointless

but pink would be dope

[devout ember]

It would be nice to set our own colors for how we view others. Just change how ranks are displayed to us. If I want all my friends to show up as bright red, and all new people to have a greyed out look, etc... Like how most games have nameplate color options.

[gloomy valve]

Hey would makeing gyestures that give alittle screen shake go against tos?

[vocal shard]

No, but that could contribut to the reason people are blocking shaders...

[ruby needle]

depends on the usage tho

[gloomy valve]

Well it wouldnt be obnoxious. Its never my intention

Like say i made a granade launcher. When the granase explodes youd expect just alittle bit of screenshake right?

[vocal shard]

Yeah, in that case. It actually adds to the immersion. Just a random screen shake is obnoxious tho

[kind wedge]

my favorite kind of screenshake is the global kind that gets paired with 3000 dB bass boosted global sound sources /s

[umbral reef]

just make sure it only does it in a small ass sphere around the place it explodes and not roomwide

[vocal shard]

same compatible

dont forget the chormatic aberration with it

[umbral reef]

and dont use it unless people know it will happen

[gloomy valve]

Ok this is all greek to me

[tidal onyx]

screenshake in all directions with speed of 100 heh

[gloomy valve]

If anyone has a good resource that would be awsome and i would be forever in their debt

[modest halo]

i don’t like how it’s more difficult to block all avatars at once with the new update

[tall storm]

It's just a few extra clicks. Shaders and particles are probably the most abused, but those are on accounts that are basically throw-away and they don't stay in VRchat long

[modest halo]

i shouldn’t have to do that they should have just kept the block all avatars button too

like what if you’re lagging really bad who wants to go into their menu and try to click all this extra stuff

[vocal shard]

The system would be nice if it were like a customization for block all avatars

You blocked them all but you feel like seeing avatars? Ok

[modest halo]

if you could still block all avatars in one click I’d like the new system but this is ridiculous

[vocal shard]

Gotta rig up your trust system

[tall storm]

I mean.....they give you full control and more filters. If you want to block everyone then hit custom and turn all the sliders on

[modest halo]

yea but it’s still more effort than before

[tall storm]

It looks like a few clicks can actually kill

[rigid crescent]

you're on desktop it's not like it's hard m8 lol

[tall storm]

You can set the permissions ahead of time before going into a heavily populated instance.

[halcyon kestrel]

What is VR

[tall storm]

Variable refresh

[halcyon kestrel]

OOO A Pre-alpha Tester

That person knows alot

about VR

[floral aspen]

Literally just clicking a check box for what you want blocked is too hard? ....okay

[jovial grail]

do you have to reinstall the SDK everytime you make a new project?

[floral aspen]

Yes

[jovial grail]

fuck

[floral aspen]

You could just have one project but with multiple scenes though

[opaque hawk]

@modest halo I made a canny post regarding that https://vrchat.canny.io/feature-requests/p/add-quick-avatar-block-button-in-the-safety-menu

[vocal shard]

isnt there an emergency feature ?

[tacit plank]

The SDK is so bad

I fix some things, and other things break instead

[opaque hawk]

Yes, but my main gripe is it’s something that’s only known through the discord or word of mouth

[tacit plank]

I think there's a limit to the amount of prefabs I can have working at once, but that nobody bothered to document it

[modest halo]

@rigid crescent me? I use vr too 🤔

[vocal shard]

Pressing the keybind for Safe Mode (Shift+Esc on Desktop, Both Triggers + Both Menu buttons in VR) will change your Shield Level to Custom, and will turn off all settings for all ranks.

also they upgraded the documentation regarding shader block https://docs.vrchat.com/v2018.3.2/docs/shader-fallback-system

[hearty wyvern]

@modest halo lagging really bad on desktop is a pretty great incentive to work hard and purchase appropriate PC upgrades to keep you current with 2007 standards.

2017*

[supple python]

2007 standards

[hearty wyvern]

Reading down I see you mention you use VR as well. Thats another issue, a great way to reduce lag in that situation is to disable your output device and simply only use your vr headset.

I do it sometimes but it does make it annoying to use oculus beta since the keyboard functionality in a virtual environment sucks.

[modest halo]

i mean this game isn’t the most optimized as it is 🤔

[opaque hawk]

There will always be user generated content that is terribly optimized as well

[hearty wyvern]

Well thats any unity game to be fair @modest halo

[modest halo]

not everyone can just be like “i’m gonna buy a brand new pc” 😂

[tall storm]

Unity isn't the most optimal

[hearty wyvern]

Oh no I didnt mean buy a new PC. I meant just incrementally upgrade. It took me 4 years to build what I have now.

I got a graohics card capable of 1080p VR in February. I was using a 750Ti before that.

[tall storm]

My 980 and 1080 handle about the same on unity

[modest halo]

i don’t mind blocking avatars when I need to I can still run the game

[earnest flower]

will vrchat ever consider getting its own oculus client?

[median basalt]

That would be nice, can help with framerates on Oculus a lot

[balmy olive]

Can I play with someone on VRchat if they use an Oculus while I am using a Vive, or does VRchat not have cross-play yet?

[rigid crescent]

Yeah

they're not separate servers or consoles or anything like that

It's essentially just a monitor on your face

[opaque hawk]

Different clients would be great for all the platforms. VRChat on the windows store maybe someday

[ember glacier]

anyone else not like how the new crouch ani is for desktop users?

[meager solstice]

@modest halo u could just go to safe mode

[tall storm]

There was a fix for it being awkward. There's a known issue for desktop where swapping out-and-back to your current avatar will fix it.

@ember glacier Also no the queen will not take over.

[gloomy valve]

Ms store version of vrchat would be a nightmare. Take it from a guy who played the pc version of killer instinct. You think you want it but you dont

[tall storm]

You mean "totally not games for windows live"

[floral aspen]

Oculus VRChat client when

not having to use SteamVR would be a godsend

[tall storm]

I wouldn't mind steam VR if big picture wasn't garbage

[floral aspen]

SteamVR is just another source of overhead for Rift users and it's pretty buggy sometimes as well

Everytime SteamVR has an update it's a crapshoot as to whether VRChat is gonna crash or not

[trail rapids]

SteamVR works flawlessly with my vive ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tall storm]

It's flawless for me, but big picture hijacking steam overlay when you use a controller or VR triggers me

[vocal shard]

steamVR is a pile of crap, even with vive

[trail rapids]

disable big picture?

[tall storm]

You can't.

Unless you delete it

[trail rapids]

I've literally never had an issue with big picture, i dont even know what you're talking about lol

[tall storm]

And i kind of need it for my steam controller or else i can't config it.

I strongly dislike the UI. Heck even chat is disabled right now in it.

[floral aspen]

SteamVR's UI is garbage compared to Oculus Core 2.0

[tall storm]

You mean the little popup that sits on your monitor?

[floral aspen]

pop up?

[tall storm]

Yeah. SteamVR is a tiny little calling-card size ui. The actual in-game UI is big picture mode.

[floral aspen]

I was referring to the entire UI in general

[trail rapids]

https://i.imgur.com/97ARR8e.png took me longer to make the link than to find the option

[tall storm]

The problem with ticking that is you can't configure your controller.

So you have to launch it, download/switch/edit profiles, exit, tick, re-open

[trail rapids]

wat

I use my 360 controller in VR with no issues, do you have a rift?

[tall storm]

For steam (or even xbox/ps4) controller, the only way to configure it is embedded in big picture.

I have a vive. I don't need to edit the vive at least.

[trail rapids]

Literally use 2 controller inputs (one 360) and VR for sublevel zero. Never had an issue with detection or big screen nonsense

btw i'm opted out of the shitty steamVR beta stuff with the home screen

right click steam VR > tab betas > OPT - NONE

will have to re-download steamvr

[ruby needle]

screw steamvr completely and replace it with OpenComposite

[tall storm]

The beta home is fine. Big picture just has more cons than pros. I almost wish death on whoever decided that only big picture has the options screen and update button for the steam controller.

[trail rapids]

oh I don't use the steam controller

[tall storm]

It's completely absent in desktop ui

[trail rapids]

the one I bought I ripped apart for the haptics systems to put in my vive controllers >:D

[floral aspen]

Agree with the screw steamVR part FPaul, but I just want the devs to give me my native oculus client back

[trail rapids]

https://i.imgur.com/pmt2Wki.jpg straight up murder

[tall storm]

... brb replacing touchpad with fidget cube

[kind wedge]

Its not centered properly

[umbral reef]

That is jail worthy

[floral aspen]

^proof SteamVR is garbage

[trail rapids]

you can't

both my haptics died after 2 years of swinging my controllers and slamming them into things 😦 so I needed both haptics from the steam controller, including the cross bevel one

[ruby needle]

Yes, can't wait for the native client

which we got promissed for this year

actually in the ealier part but i wont complain as long as it still comes this

[floral aspen]

3 months left
hope they make it this year

[trail rapids]

well if anyone is forced to use steamVR i'd recommend opting out of the beta, my headset is running 24/7

[floral aspen]

yeah, SteamVR Beta is even buggier than stable SteamVR

but that's to be expected with a beta I guess

[trail rapids]

It's not just that, the beta loads up a pointless gpu expensive scene

[gleaming kraken]

just bought a new set of wireless headphones, problem is is that if the vrchat mic settings are set to my laptop mic i can hear the game but if i set it to my headset mic all the sound cuts out

[supple python]

That sounds like you need to make the headset run as a communication device

[gleaming kraken]

i thought i did

i set on of them to default and one to default communication

[opaque hawk]

Windows audio system is terribad

[supple python]

Yep

[gleaming kraken]

oh now you tell me

[opaque hawk]

Why do you think so many people who make music use macs

[gleaming kraken]

oh... that makes sense

trying to make windows test the sound of my headset sounds out of sync from the green bars but if i test the mic it sound like garbage but its in sync

[opaque hawk]

It will sound out of synch that is okay

[gleaming kraken]

but i cant even get any sound at all in vrchat tho

unless i set vrchat to use my laptop mic

which sounds like garbage

[opaque hawk]

Are you using a headset?

Vr headset

[gleaming kraken]

nope

wish i did

[opaque hawk]

Assuming you changed your device in vr chat as well

[gleaming kraken]

both windows and vrchat are set to have the mic as my headphones' hands free and windows is set to use the other one as the speaker

[opaque hawk]

Don’t know then

I have a similar problem with one of my audio devices, still haven’t figured it out

[gleaming kraken]

i should mention that if i set vrchat to my headsets mic i still can see the shapekeys move (dont know if anyone can hear it)

[opaque hawk]

We really need a vu meter in VRChat

[gleaming kraken]

i think i know what you mean and yes

[lilac vale]

hey guys do you guys know why my screen pink when i open my game in vrchat???

[true nexus]

yo

[vocal shard]

Hey

[true nexus]

i keep loseing conection on vrchat and every ones runing in place ever sence the update its been like that?

my pings normal frams are good

[sleek pecan]

good that your frams are good

My frams died about 2 weeks ago, hard to live without the little buggers

[queen mango]

Frams?

[trail rapids]

F R A M S 😐

Frams pur swacken

[steep turret]

rip frams

[dull mountain]

If someone can help me with some weird blender stuff go in avatar

[uncut trail]

RIP people who tried to do jumpscare horror world base off movies and such and yet cannot upload them into VRchat due to DMA (Copyright law)

[raven silo]

need to be creative for halloween event

[vocal shard]

So happy to have my leg trackers working again. T-T

[agile grove]

So happy my avatars ARE A RED ERROR GUY
as I said on Twitter
They lost a user till they fix it because the fun of it was having custom avatars with animations people love to see

[queen mango]

Oof.

[vocal shard]

Lol

Learn to animate

?

@agile grove

Its not hard to use non legacy

Stop using prefabs

😂

They didnt break avatars.. They removed legacy animations... Its not their fault youre too basic to know how to fix

😎

My avatars all work

Learn2unity

[odd blaze]

yeaah i didnt even know blinking could be done like this , the tutorial i saw was old about blinking, but eh easy to fix really so i redid around 80~ avatars last 2 days and learning new stuff at the same time

[vocal shard]

Normies complaining their prefab avatars dont work

😂😂😂

I dont even use cats blinking. I make my own blinking animation and throw it on the body

[warped thorn]

I just trigger mine through gestures.

[vocal shard]

Cats blinking breaks face gestures depending on the model

The eye clipping problem with cats autoblink

[odd blaze]

Havnt used that either, usually visme's instead

[vocal shard]

But i also animate the shaders my eyes use as well in my blink animation

[rigid crescent]

be a champ and manually blink by binding blink to the fist

[vocal shard]

Lol

My fist is my angry face with a middle finger

Lol

Manually blink why

Just use animator component

I have manual blinks on some of my emotes

[rigid crescent]

nah, manual blinking is true control over your character

[vocal shard]

2 of my face gestures do a manual blink

[agile grove]

its called friends/creators made them for me
its not like i can go back in the unity file and fix anything since i dont have the files anymore

[vocal shard]

@agile grove get them to fix it then

Well

If you have time to play vrc you have time to learn to do things for yourself

[agile grove]

they are trying but it works for them when they test it but as soon as i use it on mine bam red error dude even ones from public worlds do it (like 9tails and avatars you want)

tbh they should have just left everything the way it was and just have the rank to block avatars on different levels (i get people will still crash no matter what so yeah)
either way ill only get on if friends want me to play other than that im done with vrchat

[vocal shard]

Public avatars are probably not going to be fixed for awhile.. Depends if the creator even wants to bother fixing them

Id probably scrap all the broken ones and rerelease the decent ones

[agile grove]

i had one of my streaming buddies upload their avatar on my account
we both tired to use the same avatar
theirs worked any mines just the red error or it loads but its all white and stuck in t pose

[vocal shard]

Did they clear the blueprint

Red error on duplicate avatar

If you dont clear the id

[agile grove]

no clue
nope they can use it on their account in the same world but i cant
the ids are different and the file are different projects on unity so they get their own id code

[hoary ridge]

Does anyone know where to find the photos taken with the camera in vrchat?

[vocal shard]

Should be in your photos library, in a file called vrchat

[hoary ridge]

Ah thank you!

[molten hornet]

So if im a known user and i hide my rank does it go by the rank settings of Known User or "User" for other people's things

[vocal shard]

User I think.

[molten hornet]

Hmm i think that should be changed then imo

[placid umbra]

If you choose to show as User, you're treated like one by the system

[molten hornet]

Hmm couldnt people abuse that then @placid umbra ?

[placid umbra]

How so?

[molten hornet]

O wait nvm they couldnt

LOL ignore me 😄

im a baka

[placid umbra]

No worries

[molten hornet]

Waiting for my vr controllers to charge feels like eternity!!!!

need to buy one of those Portable power banks and just hook em up to the controllers while i play XDD

If i look hard enough probably someone somewhere already made a device for that 😮

[rigid crescent]

wait what avatar do you use

[vocal shard]

so what happens if your avatar turns orange and you see everyone else's orange too?

[rigid crescent]

cache might be fully

!clearcache

aw

oh

!cleancache

[floral flax]

You can clean cache by deleting everything within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat apart from output_log.txt and config.json if you have them

[viral yacht]

Don’t know if anyone knows the answer to this since it’s a brand new feature. We can add up to 3 favourite avatars, any chance the number might increase? Super indecisive of which avatars I wanna favourite because I have so many from so many different worlds I enjoy

[subtle prawn]

I hope not 👀

[rigid crescent]

no clue, probably not though

[viral yacht]

Looks like I need to stop being so picky

[rigid crescent]

i actually haven't favorited any yet, it's so weird not being my own model

[subtle prawn]

Same

[viral yacht]

I agree, my main avatar is the one I use the most but I’ve just found some that I’ve fallen in love with and can’t pick between them

[rigid crescent]

i'll be a world model for fun for a bit, but that's just if i happen to be in the world after joining on a friend

I've never really found one that's just made me think "Wow, I need this to be me all time!" but I do have a few friends that have gone as far as asking the world owner if they could have or buy it

[viral yacht]

Some worlds it says right on a panel or whatever they sell them

Honestly I’d be one to buy just because I’m hella lazy

[finite kraken]

oof get the new wirless headset adopter and it dies as soon as i get it running

[viral yacht]

The only thing that worries me about it is what if the avatar needs an update or something? Like yikes

[rigid crescent]

Yeah, that's true, like this whole thing with the animator lol

[shy nest]

Are you using right out of the box cupcake?

[rigid crescent]

to be honest though, unless it's a really custom one I wouldn't spend money on a world avatar. al ot you can just find on deviantart

[finite kraken]

yes

i just got it out of the box

[shy nest]

There is your reason

[finite kraken]

had only 2 bars thought it last longer

[rigid crescent]

One popular one was a neru in frills and bikini armor, she was big for a while, but that was just a not so well done import of a popular model from deviantart

[shy nest]

They have to ship with a certain amount of battery life, chuck it on charge for a while and you should be good

[finite kraken]

didn't know i should of bought another battery unitl i found the htc site and now i can buy another battery

[snow fable]

Did they ever fix full body tracking?

[finite kraken]

i think so

it worked when i used it for the short amount of time

[snow fable]

😀

[finite kraken]

at first it was confused when my controller and my tracker but it was fixed by closing game and going back in

[vivid ridge]

fullbody is still broken for me despite trying to fix it for hours...

[rigid crescent]

weird, did you update the game?

[snow fable]

Also, I'm new to full body tracking. What's the best way to prevent the foot trackers from jiggling around?

[vivid ridge]

@rigid crescent i updated and followed all the suggestions in the fullbody channel, but for some reason once i turn my trackers on, my controllers just dont turn on?

[vocal shard]

guess ill clear cache then

[candid hare]

SteamVR update has broken trackers

tryign the suggestions but if I have my trackers on. my controllers button presses do not get recognized

[waxen glacier]

dont like that vrchat put bata mode on for evry one now it take some time for my avatar load and i dont like it plz remove my bata plz ;-;

[candid hare]

work around is not working

[cinder pier]

What is this bata mode? Are you talking about the safety features? A few seconds to wait doesn't seem too bad besides everyone else will have to wait for your avatar to load if it's not already cached.

[waxen glacier]

it also crahses more -_-

and yes all of bata cant i turn mine off ;-;

[cinder pier]

If its crashing more, submit that to #user-support-old

No you can't. The trust system is live so the only thing you can do is change trust settings which isn't going to make much difference

[west elbow]

you guys are all looking very nice tonight

[tall storm]

There's a steamVR update?

[waxen glacier]

yes

and its making more people sick because of the new graphics

[cinder pier]

What new graphics? You mean the name tags and icons ?

[vocal shard]

The update is on live now.
Also, avatars have been taking longer to load now on purpose. For quite a while actually.
It's more optimized and prevents avatars from being loaded too quickly/before realizing they're supposed to not be shown.

they changed it because loading avatars would freeze your client, I loled at that last reason 😉

[tall storm]

They all loaded immediately. It choked my computer.

[vocal shard]

ye

[rough flax]

I liked that your current avatar was shown but kinda broken until the next one loaded, and it loaded instantly. Not a minute..

[tall storm]

But i meant steamVR.

I see patch notes but it looks like only my remote firmware was updated on vive

[vocal shard]

steamvr is laggy and never quits properly for me 😐

[tall storm]

Ah there we go. It silently downloaded

[cinder pier]

The trust system should have made things better for you. Now you can restrict shaders and particle effects by rank you won't be seeing all those toxic shaders. Those would definitely make u feel more sick than the name tag and icon changes

[tall storm]

I wasn't aware the VRC update changed graphics. All it was was cleaner menu and added the safety menu

It also removed legacy unity animations which shouldn't cause issues going forward

Heck yes. They added center view to mirror

[uncut trail]

Guess there lack of jumpscare worlds coming out this year halloween due to some are prevented to upload for halloween this year 😦

[tall storm]

Prevented?

[uncut trail]

copyright

Aka Dead Space VR

[river thunder]

DMCA is a bitch :P

Or

[tall storm]

Well heck yeah. That's something you don't walk in to. Of course they are obligated to shut down copyright violations

[river thunder]

I guess a cruel mistress

[tall storm]

That can mean expensive lawsuits and the end of VRC.

[uncut trail]

I want to see worlds like big sister dungeon but more scarier and more jumpscares

[candid hare]

they are taking down 'copyrighted' material?

[uncut trail]

Yep

[cinder pier]

I'm currently working on one at the moment

[tall storm]

They'd have to if reported. Else lawsuit.

[candid hare]

liek peoples avatars?

[tall storm]

Yes.

[uncut trail]

Mhmm

[river thunder]

I wish there was more puzzles

Waitwhat

[uncut trail]

they took down chara/frisk from lycan world

[candid hare]

if you edit the avatar, its not theirs anymore though

[river thunder]

So you are saying

[tall storm]

That's not how copyright works.

[river thunder]

I cant use a link avatar

[tall storm]

Yeah. Nintendo would file a C&D if they caught wind. So VRC would have to delete it.

[river thunder]

[uncut trail]

Yep

[tall storm]

And nintendo isn't holding back on those lately

[uncut trail]

Like Minecraft world

[river thunder]

Ohboy

[cinder pier]

absolutely, Nintendo would be the first to file a complaint

[tall storm]

You can't just take a marvel/dc/EA/etc property and upload it to this game. That's actually dangerous for VRChat if left unchecked.

[candid hare]

i mean if I takea chracters head and edit it adn put it on a different body. . .

[river thunder]

What if the avatars private?

[tall storm]

Trademark.

[river thunder]

That could help

Also credit to the original material

[tall storm]

Private or no, you're using something that resembles a copyright or trademark that you simply don't have the rights to use

[cinder pier]

Remember the little box your tick when you upload the avatar?

[river thunder]

?

[hoary ridge]

OmegaLUL

[tall storm]

"I agree that i own all rights to this thing I am uploading, and it is legal"

[cinder pier]

You're basically agreeing you have the right to upload

[river thunder]

I've spent most times yelling at unity to actually work

[hoary ridge]

^

[tall storm]

So if you see spiderman stuff? It's probably going to cause a lot of trouble if it stays around

[river thunder]

And not screw up the mesh

[hoary ridge]

Sky that’s so true

Isn’t there a website that’s basically all Nintendo models

[river thunder]

The modellers resource

So ye

[plucky acorn]

Is vrchat compatible with the leonovo exploerer and WMR?

[river thunder]

But

[hoary ridge]

Yea I wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo took that down

[plucky acorn]

cause it launches, but I'm not able to walk :(

[river thunder]

We cant talk about ripping models

[tall storm]

WMR can be used.

[hoary ridge]

@plucky acorn yes

I don’t know about Lenovo but I use dell and it works fine

Besides the shitty tracking

[river thunder]

So

[queen mango]

@hoary ridge Then they'll create it again, and again.

[hoary ridge]

Yea

It’ll just be a cycle

[river thunder]

I mean

[hoary ridge]

Well

[tall storm]

They'll create more sites but VRchat is singular. It just simply can't be here, and efforts have to be made to tackle it or else the banhammer of a lawsuit comes down saying "they weren't trying hard enough"

[hoary ridge]

The emulator community is in shit right now because of Nintendo

[river thunder]

Creativity is going down the shitter right now anyways

[plucky acorn]

yeah shitty tracking is true, but for some reason the controller won't let me teleport

[hoary ridge]

So I wouldn’t be surprised if model websites fall into the same fate

@plucky acorn do you use the mwr program for steam vr?

[plucky acorn]

yeah

[river thunder]

Annoyingly

[hoary ridge]

Lol

[river thunder]

Thats a issue fans of sega ip's dont face issues

[cinder pier]

Nintendo have stepped up their game lately with everything in regards to copyright. I think they're getting triggered by people hacking the switch

[plucky acorn]

it auto launches when I plug it in

[hoary ridge]

So what are you having problems with?

[plucky acorn]

if I try to walk it doesn't let me

if I try to use the controller

[hoary ridge]

Does the control work in other games/programs?

Controller

Nintendo is just a bunch of buttholes

They have such a dedicated fan base too

[river thunder]

Im a LOZ fan

Which, can be annoying at times

[cinder pier]

I love their games though. I understand them in some ways but they're way too aggressive when it comes to DMCA

[queen mango]

Huge swathes of history are lost to Nintendo's PR Team

[plucky acorn]

everything but walking works in vrchat

[tall storm]

They shut down the fan remakes, and recently the pokemon mod for minecraft (which got spun-off but will probably get C&D again)

[plucky acorn]

eh I'll just figure it out later

[hoary ridge]

That made me kinda mad tbh

[river thunder]

I just realised

[queen mango]

Thanks to their actions, all emulators are shut down and the community is in turmoil

[plucky acorn]

I may just use K/M with my headset

[indigo fern]

#general-media 🤔

[hoary ridge]

@plucky acorn I’ve never had that problem before, sorry but idk what to recommend

[river thunder]

Why hasnt nintendo pulled DMCA bullshit on that bowsette thing

[hoary ridge]

Because that’s fanart

And not an actual trademarked thing

[river thunder]

Its still related

[gloomy valve]

well i mean ther was that concept art where bowser got his own kappy

[river thunder]

Yeah

[indigo fern]

they usually shut down video game related things pretty quick, so playable things, art doesnt matter too much

[gloomy valve]

and then threw it at peach

[river thunder]

That too

[hoary ridge]

That’s different

[tall storm]

Art is tougher. Actual games yes.

[hoary ridge]

I guess

[gloomy valve]

i mean when it comes to C&Ds Nintendo is as ruthless as Hecking Disney

[queen mango]

Even Pixelmon, in Minecraft. Like wtf, Nintendo?

[hoary ridge]

I mean I don’t think Nintendo can copyright fanart and stuff like that

[queen mango]

Why CD something that isn't even part of your game?

[river thunder]

Pixelmon was different

[gloomy valve]

i mean more and more cons are starting to ban the sale of fan art

[hoary ridge]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they did bough

Though

[river thunder]

They had a patreon

[tall storm]

Pixelmon was... blatant copyright infringement. And they took money.

[cinder pier]

I bet theyd love to shut bowsette down if they could

[hoary ridge]

They’re trademarking things that earn revenue from their products

[gloomy valve]

if thats the case they'd have to C&D the whole internet

and that would tank their company

[river thunder]

I'd be with nintendo for that

[hoary ridge]

Anything that’s related to their ips that makes money without them

So fanart they couldn’t care less

[queen mango]

GODDAMN NINTENDO, AND THEIR DMCAS!!!

[gloomy valve]

@hoary ridge unless its sold at conventions

[hoary ridge]

Yea

[river thunder]

But nintendo seems to only order CaD when they did, or are about to do similar things

[hoary ridge]

But Nintendo won’t go to conventions and just death squadron fan art booths

Though I wouldn’t be surprised

[tall storm]

Actually conventions are including a rule where you can't sell fan stuff of trademark... was it momocon that did that? i forget

[queen mango]

Yeas, that is the part where it ticks me to hell.

[gloomy valve]

furry cons are doing that too Flyingbox

kinnda sucks

but i get where they're coming from

[queen mango]

Fan works? NUH-UH. DMCA!

[hoary ridge]

Yea

I mean I kinda get it but at the same time

It’s pretty dumb

At the same time

[river thunder]

Thats because most furries have a single brain cell

[queen mango]

like if i got a dmca at my table at a con yeah id curse out the legal staff in front of me. but its cheaper to curse them out and comply then take them to court

[queen mango]

Oof...

[river thunder]

And dont understand what crossing the line is

[hoary ridge]

Yea

[gloomy valve]

@river thunder dont start buddy

[hoary ridge]

Lmfao

[tall storm]

Uh. You're ... kind of stereotyping like crazy there.

[hoary ridge]

Let’s

[queen mango]

It's a emulator community FGS, why Nintendo gotta kill that too?

[hoary ridge]

Relax

[gloomy valve]

^this

[cinder pier]

Regarding the emulator shutdowns. People were downloading the entire contents of their CDN game library and using it to play on emulators

[river thunder]

But

[hoary ridge]

Dumb

[river thunder]

They killed VG history

[cinder pier]

That's enough reason to get then triggered

[modern sand]

#general-media please

[gloomy valve]

Big bissnuess dosnt give a shit sky

[queen mango]

Oof.

[river thunder]

Sorry

[hoary ridge]

Omegalul police are here

[gloomy valve]

now back to the topic of VR chat

[cinder pier]

Rip

[hoary ridge]

Gotta go boys

[queen mango]

Sorry for emotional outburst.

Get this one to RC

[tall storm]

Ah. Is it a legitimate request to put on canny to want the (i) bubble on the loadscreen be considered solid for the laser pointer?

[viral yacht]

I realized getting excited over sick avatars is pointless because no one would see the cool parts of it anyways

[hoary ridge]

^

Am I the only person who actually keeps everything off?

Because everyone I’ve met has had some restriction of some sort

[viral yacht]

If I’m a green user, and have an avatar with let’s say a galaxy like special outfit, maybe an animation where she throws money and slight particles coming off her back ( this is completely random off the top of my head ) will that stuff be blocked for other users who are using the default x2 shield settings?

[hoary ridge]

Yes

I believe so @viral yacht

[viral yacht]

This update wrecked me lol

I feel like I can’t even have cool looking avatars anymore

[rigid crescent]

you can though?

[hoary ridge]

You can

Some people would leave it on

[tranquil vortex]

Att

Ayy

[viral yacht]

That’s true

[tranquil vortex]

We doing it again?

[viral yacht]

I just feel like most people use default

[hoary ridge]

Like I use no protection/shield

[tranquil vortex]

I'm game

[hoary ridge]

So I usually see everything

[whole lodge]

Is FBT alright?

[rigid crescent]

It should show who's blocking what I think

[hoary ridge]

Yea they fixed it

@whole lodge

[whole lodge]

Awesome

[viral yacht]

Is that what the icons are when you hover over someone, what they’re personally blocking?

I just randomly thought that was what was blocked on them for me

[hoary ridge]

That’s a thing now?

Didn’t notice that

[rigid crescent]

I'm not sure which it is, maybe it's what you're blocking on them

[viral yacht]

I’m not sure, when I go over someone with the cursor it’ll show like for example a ball over their nameplate

I’ll just get in game and test with some people who aren’t friends, see what they can and can’t see on my avatars

[tall storm]

Huh. I think someone just crashed a room of never have i ever. My headset was reloading the game every 3 seconds, and mirror had a still-frame of each moment

15 or so people gone

[hoary ridge]

Noice

Pug?

[tall storm]

"Never have I ever"

[hoary ridge]

Damn that place?

[tall storm]

Issue being i saw no obvious source.

[rough flax]

I thought we were supposed to learn from history and no re create it? We're identifying people by their color

[hoary ridge]

Omegalul

Green Chads

[trail rapids]

man the new update kind of sucks lol

kind of an extremist way to combat crashing, tons of better solutions

[hoary ridge]

^

[trail rapids]

It just punishes the biggest fans of VRCHAT, the creators.. people who put time into the game. All the "average players" that come and go don't give a shit

and if you don't have the hardcore fanbase

the game will slowly die

[fervent scroll]

People are DDOSing?

Can anyone confirm?

[trail rapids]

what?

it's not about ddosing

[fervent scroll]

Thats what I heard

a groupd of people got ahold of a .exe that just ddos's entire rooms?

[trail rapids]

it's about people that crash with avatars.. people will still be able to ddos "trusted" or not

[fervent scroll]

I kinda saw pug rooms just vanish today one after another so idk, i wanted to ask

Im talking about something seperate i think

[hoary ridge]

He/she is talking about a new group of ddosers

[trail rapids]

lol...not surprised

[hoary ridge]

Totally separate from the trust system

[fervent scroll]

so its a real thing then?

[trail rapids]

They put a system in place because of assholes being assholes. All the decent people suffer, what do the assholes do? Find other ways to be assholes meanwhile everyone that isn't one suffers

[hoary ridge]

No idea

[hollow oriole]

Even with the new safety mode I still got earrape on occasion

and huge random spheres of shaders

On default settings too

[hoary ridge]

The random boxes and spheres of shaders are because of the blocking

[viral yacht]

I’m like 50/50 on this update

[rough flax]

Do you know how DDosing works?

[hoary ridge]

They’re usually supposed to have an effect or be translucent with custom shaders

[rigid crescent]

who is suffering and in what way?

[viral yacht]

Kinda sucks I need to grind just to be able to use my custom avatars to their full potential, but also understandable

[trail rapids]

ddosing is just a bunch of people sending huge packet requests that clog up the servers until they crash

[rigid crescent]

and don't say people can't see their avatars by default lol

rather, certain aspects of their avatar

[trail rapids]

yeah the irony is most the trolls have been trolling long enough to be "trusted" rofl

so stupid

[hoary ridge]

I’m only user

Feelsbadman

[viral yacht]

Kinda wishing I didn’t take a 5 month break from VRChat lol

[rigid crescent]

Not having your shader shown isn't "suffering" though, in any form.

it's a minor inconvenience, and one you can't even see

[trail rapids]

that is the dumbest logic

[rigid crescent]

So people are SUFFERING because some people can't see their shaders? lol

[trail rapids]

Hey I'm going to put time and effort into this AV

oh no one can see it

oh well ^___^
