like the lag one? people were jsut lagging for no reason

still lark
#

@languid beacon Wouldn't restarting steam be better?

molten hornet
#

Merry Christmas vrchat i probably wont see any of u the next couple days so saying it now :)

rigid crescent
#

:0 is that one thing fixed tupper or nah

languid beacon
#

Didn't trigger it for me, @still lark

covert chasm
#

@rigid crescent yes, it was a rogue script not playing nice

#

fixed

still lark
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

vocal shard
languid beacon
#

It also gave people 8 hours to make chairs

shy nest
#

guess I should install this new unity version so I can get on making stuff, 5th unity version here i come

molten hornet
#

@languid beacon or cars

rigid crescent
#

so if we break it, just document it and email it? canny seems like a bad idea since thats just a guide

remote drum
#

or mechs!

rough flax
#

Everyone just get ready to blow the discord with complaints about your framerate

molten hornet
#

Omg mechs i never thought of that omg!!! @remote drum

still lark
#

Chairs was leaked for ages.

remote drum
#

😄

umbral oracle
#

Make a canny and email it to hello@ is probably not a bad idea

empty wharf
#

I sure hope my avatars don’t got a bad rating

shy nest
#

if they have 4 million materials, expect it to

royal basin
#

I hope mine is at least medium

molten hornet
#

@empty wharf i rate it 11/10 IGN

rigid crescent
#

Let him cry.

remote drum
#

or a chair on the hand for the little avatars

royal pond
#

they'll probably mostly be marked as poor

golden violet
#

I hope mine are all poor

rigid crescent
#

@umbral oracle Well making a canny detailing how an exploit works is most likely a bad idea is what I mean.

placid umbra
#

No guarantees, but I was just in a room with 40 people and all avatars showing, still had 45 fps

molten hornet
#

Mine should be poor like me irl

sick cobalt
#

oh shet

empty wharf
#

Lmao

gilded valley
#

fixed many bugs in 8 hours ahaha

placid umbra
#

There's been big IK perf improvements in this

half apex
#

oh shnap

molten hornet
#

@placid umbra what cpu u use

shy nest
#

does that mean colliders on every bone Pog /s

empty wharf
#

Well I’ll have to check this out

blissful meadow
placid umbra
#

@rigid crescent Emails are fine for bug reports if it's sensitive like that

sick cobalt
#

im just chilling on my i7-2600 still

placid umbra
#

6700k

sick cobalt
#

im a broke boy

royal basin
#

I dont think i need to worry about getting poor on my henshins

rigid crescent
#

I mean if they're not willing to understand it's not the end of the world, then you can't do anything but let them realize it themselves.

molten hornet
#

Think a ryzen 5 2600x will be good for vrchat?

placid umbra
#

@crystal plover His animations still work just like before

rigid crescent
#

Their avatars all work just fine.

royal basin
#

However im just worried of people blocking me for em when they see red star

half apex
#

more then enough in my opinion

sick cobalt
#

hi Aev how you doing

covert chasm
#

@royal basin If an avatar does cool stuff, but is marked poor, I don't really care as a viewer.

rigid crescent
#

Best i can tell you is make an alternate version without all the big stuff on it

covert chasm
#

But that's just me.

molten hornet
#

O good @half apex im using a amd fx 6300 atm

royal basin
#

Yeahh

#

It differs from persn to person

half apex
#

that'll be a BIG increase

molten hornet
#

@half apex ikr xD

#

10 fps atm

remote drum
#

I hope my furbies rate as green 😃

half apex
#

my poor child

rigid crescent
#

well i've been bitter enough for one day, gonna get in VR 👌 good to see a bunch of unfamiliar names on the discord tho

sick cobalt
#

i see how it is aev ummmm

molten hornet
#

@half apex with fullbody hahahahaha

sick cobalt
#

xd

rigid crescent
#

He can keep doing it, Green. Nothing in the system prevents hisavatars from doing cool stuff

versed plank
#

To be honest i think they should have implemented the performance ranking system as numbers instead of icons

royal basin
#

Thanks a lot though i feel a bit better about this

rigid crescent
#

It ranks his avatar low, which if he's doing big effects, everyone already knew lol

lone thicket
#

there where a bunch of concerns with public avatar cloning and Im sure not a lot of people got to test the feature in only 8 hours

versed plank
#

I can already see so many people being blocked gust because they used an avatar

molten hornet
#

Now i can spawn a chair with my avatar to do fullbody "stuff" on person on chair?

rigid crescent
#

The limits are pretty friendly, even if they end up hardcapped one day

covert linden
#

Woahwoah

rigid crescent
#

Like what Floober? Most I saw were socially related ones, like people sharing crash avatars which was already possible.

royal basin
#

Would you want numbers cluttering your screen whenever you look at someone

golden violet
#

Hard cap would be the worst idea

still otter
#

@crystal plover tell them peoples framerates and experience in VR are overall more important to the community than fancy animations. They can still make cool avatars and aims but just needs to be more careful about when and where they show them to others.

modest halo
#

what is the point of the performance system if most avatars are rated poor anyways GWmiyanoDisgust

lone thicket
#

easter egg avatars was the primary concern

shy nest
#

so you know who to block @modest halo

lone thicket
#

sketchu has locked all her avatars private because we have no middle ground as creators

molten hornet
#

So u can block them

rigid crescent
#

Yeah, that's also true as a concern.

placid umbra
#

@sick cobalt been a long week but I'm very glad it's out

versed plank
#

No

gloomy sequoia
#

Why is every avatar in every room red?

covert chasm
#

@modest halo Most aren't poor. I was just in a room with 35-40 people and some were medium, a few Poor, mostly Good

rigid crescent
#

!cleancache try that

floral flaxBOT
#

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

molten hornet
#

@cold saddle not any different then when safety features came out

sick cobalt
#

yeah could tell lol, noticed you peeps where on the closed beta alot

opaque jewel
#

Because it judges people by literally one thing

distant charm
#

@lone thicket Avatar cloning has been in focus testing much longer than that, it's just only been in the open beta for a bit.

gloomy sequoia
#

No, I mean their circles.

still lark
#

So much testing was done. lol

opaque jewel
#

it's not an average like it should be

placid umbra
#

open beta may have been short, but this release had a ton of testing

rigid crescent
#

yeah I was on the closed beta memeing around from the start right til the finish

golden violet
#

I know if someone has blocked my avatar by just sitting down. If they look down when talking to me I'm not blocked. If they blocked me I block them Shrug

steep pagoda
#

o.o ton of testing.......
there are still so many issues

molten hornet
#

Memeing around ...

rigid crescent
#

it was the most fun i've had in VRChat for a while in general lol

lone thicket
#

Yeah focus testing doesn't matter when no one in the focus group cared about easter egg avatars

#

and Im not sure why no middle ground for avatars could not be implemented

versed plank
#

Think this update should have been a little bit more delayed

molten hornet
#

@golden violet same if im blocked i block them too

versed plank
#

The beta was way tok short

gloomy sequoia
#

Mmm.

versed plank
#

Too*

covert linden
#

Im happy it happened, now I can make my avatars once im not busy

modest halo
#

most of the avatars i've seen so far are poor/very poor

distant charm
#

This is just the 1.0 of avatar cloning, they're likely to build upon it over time

lone thicket
#

there is no point in making maps for avatars when people can just get them off their friend

like the whole hook of having a map full of hidden avatars is gone

gloomy sequoia
#

Should make a way to announce to everyone playing there is an update so people realize they need to update so they can see their dang friends.

molten hornet
#

Vrooooooooom thats the sound of my new car avatar

half apex
#

i dont think it'll be too big a deal

unkempt cliff
#

I don’t know why, but when I got on today a few hours ago, it feels like my descriptor moved forward. I could see the inside of my fingers if I got close enough which I could not even do before since the headset would block my hand. I don’t really know what happened but I didn’t notice any changes in Unity. Hoping I don’t need to reupload all my stuff.. again.

idle cipher
#

lol wow everyone's avatar including mine i've seen are all poor/verypoor

half apex
#

^

molten hornet
#

Rip

half apex
#

everyone will just ignore it imo

idle cipher
#

i dont see any frame drops with my avatar tho

molten hornet
#

L2 optimize

modest halo
#

that's why i think it was pointless to add this system

vocal shard
#

^

versed plank
#

It is not pointless

wary monolith
#

^^^

covert linden
#

At least I wont be judged for having very poor

rough flax
#

The game is literally unplayable right now

molten hornet
#

^^^^^^^^

tidal aspen
#

If people want to optimize they can, if they ignore it w/e

versed plank
#

But needs a diffrent way to show the performance

wary monolith
#

its point less

sick cobalt
#

bro can we like start prompting people to update their games in vrchat when their is an update

vocal shard
#

^^^

molten hornet
#

^^^

umbral oracle
#

How is it unplayable

rough flax
#

I was getting 45 fps before this shit update, and now i'm getting 15

rigid crescent
#

put it in your socail menu for now

still lark
#

@idle cipher Of course you wont, it's just you, but when there's 30-40 of you it gets bad.

gloomy sequoia
#

I've been crashing since the update before this, still crashing a lot.

molten hornet
#

I just wanted to put ^^^

umbral oracle
#

People are going to work to improve their avatars now

#

In a month it won't be all red

gloomy sequoia

Can't load anything either.

still lark
#

@gloomy sequoia Have you been reporting the crashes at all?

wary monolith
#

roll back pls and keep it there

still lark
#

Not just ranting in Discord.

molten hornet
#

@gilded valley pfs? Whats dat

rough flax
#

Making the game run like shit on purpose to get people to optimize their avatars is not the way.

gloomy sequoia
#

True.

half apex
#

i know i'll be optimizing some current, and all future avatars from this point on.

royal basin
#

On purpose

vocal shard
#

WAIT A MINUTE

#

@half apex AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

umbral oracle
#

How is a red star have anything to do with the game running well

half apex
#

LOL

molten hornet
#

@vocal shardwhy do i have u blocked hmm?

half apex
#

saaaaah dude

placid umbra
#

Not going to entertain trolling, if you have feedback send it in an email @rough flax

vocal shard
#

@molten hornet Thanks for reminding me to block you

gloomy sequoia
#

Mmm.

molten hornet
#

Hmm

umbral nova
#

Seems I missed something whups

vocal shard
#

Jeez, love having people telling me why they blocked me

#

Or they have me blocked

rough flax
#

Constructive feedback is consdered trolling now thonk

vocal shard
#

Just gives me reason to return the favor and be cordial

half apex
#

🤔

royal basin
#

There are indicators on what causes the ranking though

vocal shard
#

Update went live eevee...

Must be cause of how u act i guess

@covert chasm my mother says it's passed my bed time but i want to play this awesome update!!! what do i do ?

umbral nova
#

And I wish it stayed in beta longer

gloomy sequoia
#

I can barely get into worlds, not sure if it's my internet or not.

vocal shard
#

That's whats up Jasyidk
You know what follows

sick cobalt
#

great idea ping admins

royal basin
#

Too much dynamic bones, having colliders, too many skinned meshes, too big bounds, and too many materials

molten hornet
#

@still lark tru ill stop tis xmas

#

:)

placid umbra
#

@vocal shard Would you rather a kick?

half apex
#

@vagrant bobcat join the dark side

bold quiver
#

and now i cant even log in after the new update

umbral nova
#

Gonna run on data since the internet here S U X

umbral oracle
#

@gilded valley same problem here, for months. Just got used to clicking ok. Popup about installation helper when it already works. I'm on win7

umbral nova
#

And I love when this stuff haappens

lone thicket
#

Im gonna leave it at this. A bunch of creators who would like to have control over if avatars can be cloned only found out about this feature when it was PUBLICALLY announced yesterday and now the update has almost immediately left open beta and is live a few days later.

And when these creators raised their concerns they where told to wait till the feature is public and that a middle ground could not be implemented.

Im sorry but a bunch of us feel very alienated atm and we're not sure what to do.

molten hornet
#

So what did u all wish for xmas?

placid umbra
#

@gilded valley Comes up even after you click the button?

umbral nova
#

And is that the real MsteLink

vocal shard
#

im scared

umbral nova

And the real Scared

Famous map creator

vagrant bobcat

is that the real lonebeevee

gilded valley
#

@placid umbra its been showing up again for the past month now no matter how many times i press ok, everytime i close the game it shows uup

umbral nova
#

@vagrant bobcat I wish

umbral oracle
#

@lone thicket the usage of the private setting on avatars to prevent cloning by modded clients was announced months ago but maybe only in discord. I can't find the message so it may have been deleted

finite kraken
#

so the new avatar seats are out?

placid umbra
#

@gilded valley I'll need to look into the fix, can you send an email to support@vrchat.com and I'll follow up?

molten hornet
#

@umbral oracle ya it was

gilded valley
#

ight

half apex
#

@finite kraken i believe so

placid umbra
#

Thanks much

vocal shard
#

Mistake were made

languid beacon

Can we please clear something up?

umbral nova

I wish I was home so I could actually see what issues are happening

Anyone u guys know how to uninstall a driver for steamvr? I tried playspace mover and cant use vr now cause of it

umbral nova

thats a security feature not this new public avatar cloning feature

O.o

umbral nova

His name is "still here"

He's still here everyone

molten hornet

Is he though

umbral nova

Prob

#

He's most likely hiding

vocal shard
#

We all hide

rigid crescent

it's literally a yellow dot lol

umbral nova
#

Kronik is back too

split vortex
#

Lol me and a giant group had to close rn cause of the late night new update

sick cobalt
#

shut up

split vortex
#

Perfect timing

umbral nova
#

No

#

I talk if I want

sick cobalt
#

stop being a toxic meanie

split vortex
#

Tf is going on

late dock
#

People are vote kicking people with more than 30 dynamic bone transforms, is this how the avatar stats system was intended to be used?

umbral nova
#

How am I being mean? Literally all I said was that you're back

rigid crescent
#

LOL yeah the trust system had a rocky start and it normalized

#

dont worry about it

royal basin
#

its just a knee jerk reaction everyones having

vocal shard
#

It will be a bit.... Shakey for a while

umbral nova
#

I guess that's being toxic 🤷

late dock
#

Just gonna stick to invite only worlds for a couple weeks

tidal aspen

expecting people to not meme in the first day

invite only? just go to friends+ hello

why kinda forehead only goes to invite+

storm stag

lmao

umbral nova
#

Lmao

Remember when people used to be able to sell avatars? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

rigid crescent
#

you still can wut

Never ever go to public world again

wary monolith

covert linden
#

I cant wait to make loli towers

storm stag
#

Get demoted after an hour

umbral oracle
#

@late dock I've never seen public world group lobbies manage to successfully kick a troll with bad avatar and mic spamming. So I'd be impressed if they vote kicked a red star aside from making fun of the system

rigid crescent
#

people who buy avatars typically want something customized. this avatar sharing doesnt fill that gap

storm stag
#

Cuz the block and vote kicked you

light pivot
#

wat? I see people get kicked in public all the time

rigid crescent
#

that has very little impact on your trust rank, if any at all.

light pivot
#

like every time I go to public

rigid crescent
#

i know people blocked by HUNDREDS and they were veteran

vocal shard
#

^ that

rigid crescent
#

(and are still trusted btw)

umbral nova
#

@sick cobalt Can you explain though?

storm stag
#

Only japanese people blocked me but that was when i was new

opaque comet

How do i type for vr chat

umbral nova
#

All I said was that you were back now and that's somehow toxic

you cant type ingame

i mean you are trying to be rude about it, its obvious lol, stop being a smart ass

umbral nova

I'm getting kicked? Well if I'm going, I'm going out in style? 🤸

you dont, @opaque comet

how does the vrchat seating gestures work

#

The Ruuubick has been summoned

storm stag
#

Well i heard their gona improve this Avatar stats system sooo

#

I guess its worth a wait

umbral nova
languid beacon
#

I mean I assume you just put a station on your avatar.

storm stag
#

Besides i like this update

molten hornet
#

@umbral nova i play pot of greed

languid beacon
#

Unlike regular chairs, it can't have a trigger

umbral nova
#

Can't or doesn't require?

languid beacon
#

Avatars still can't have event handlers or triggers

umbral nova
#

And do chairs even require triggers in the first place?

languid beacon
#

I mean they never did, but that the most common type of chair was an OnInteract trigger

royal basin
#

they automatically add oninteract

#

if there's none

languid beacon
#

You can do other kinds I believe

still lark
#

Actually they strip triggers, and then add their own.

languid beacon
#

for avatars specifically you mean

still lark
#

Yeah

languid beacon
#

actually it won't let you upload it with a trigger anymore

#

it'll make you remove it

still lark
#

anymore? 🤔

languid beacon
#

Which is fine because it never worked any way

finite kraken
#

so is the chairs system out?

languid beacon
#

Yes chairs are live

finite kraken
#

i got the sdk but idk how to make the chairs gesture work

royal basin
#

because if you hard limit creativity more people will get mad

earnest harbor
#

these numbers for the rating system are terrible

still lark
#

@earnest harbor You gonna explain why or just leave it at that?

earnest harbor
#

a single dynamic bone and it's ranked poor? nice.

languid beacon
#

No it isn't @earnest harbor

#

The numbers in paranthesis show you the "Excellent" threshold status. Really, just target for the medium ones.

finite kraken
#

so do i just add a world chair prefab to my model?

earnest harbor
#

the target is 0

languid beacon
#

That won't work @finite kraken because you can't have triggers or events on avatars

burnt bolt
#

Hi everyone I have a quick question does anyone know how to fix playspace mover after the update mine broke 😕

finite kraken
#

then how does one get the chair gesture if it's live

languid beacon
#

Yes, the Excellent Threshold for dynamic bones is 0. that doesn't mean having 1 makes you poor.

vocal shard
#

The target for very good is 0, but as you add more, the ranking goes down

placid umbra
#

The number in parenthesis is the recommended amount. You can have dynamic bones and still be "good" if they're limited. I'd recommend reading the page for it

chilly current
#

I already don't like this update

sick cobalt
#

how do you make avatars clonable

vocal shard
#

Make them public

languid beacon
#

Will the requirements for public WORLD avatars be changing at all? Maybe to match the Medium category? Maybe? 😛

chilly current
#

Its an easier gateway for model stealers now

languid beacon
#

Whu?

royal basin
#

lmao

velvet quarry
#

I would suspect this is already the same system that was initially used for avatar stealing, which was patched up long ago.

true sky
#

set avatar to private

#

really easy

vocal shard
#

DEVS HELP I CAN'T GET IN

#

IM TOO DRUNK FOR THIS

covert linden
#

Hard to steal without the unity files

languid beacon
#

well i'm just saying if they could just outright say "public worlds must have medium avatars or better" that would like, give us more dynamic bone colliders. ; )

vocal shard
#

i dont wan tot talk to the 12 year old rec room people

#

halp

#

🤔

velvet quarry
#

@vocal shard I'd recommend sobering up first.

earnest harbor
#

oh, apparently I do have one model that's not poor...

vocal shard
#

no

languid beacon
#

Most of my models were good or medium, happytimes

vocal shard
#

i'll sober up tomorrow when i have to be an adult but its DRUNK HOURS BABY

languid beacon
vocal shard
velvet quarry
#

Aslong as you don't spam up this discord due to it.

earnest harbor
#

only reason most of mine are in poor/very poor are dynamic bone transforms

vocal shard
#

you're right tho wrong channel but user support isn't helping

true sky
#

im going to like it how people use the system as a reason to block you completely, but i like to see how the system works 😃

languid beacon
#

check out bone merging @earnest harbor

velvet quarry
#

Mine are currently in the poor category due to my one bone collider, so I suppose I have to do some tweaking.

languid beacon
#

you can often get the same visual result wiih less lag

vocal shard
#

bone collider

Already in live, Rin

vocal shard
#

its live on the normal ver

umbral nova
#

"Patch"

earnest harbor
#

oh, no i actually have one that should be perfect...

oblique crescent
#

how do they fix any current bugs? the beta was literally not too long ago

velvet quarry
#

Its been in closed beta testing for several weeks

umbral nova
#

We're still waiting for that patch, people are reporting framerate issues

earnest ermine
#

thank I don't think I'll stop making hand colliders a thing, touch in vr is fairly important imo

languid beacon
#

@velvet quarry You can have up to 4 dynamic bone colliders and remain Medium status.

fathom nymph
#

if VRChat has a way to tell the number of polygons an avatar has, when why are avatars with more than 70,000 polygons still allowed and accessible? shouldn't they be at least "not allowed" to use or disabled/deleted?

velvet quarry
#

@languid beacon Yeah, my problem is the collision calculation is hitting 10, which puts it down to Poor.

#

Limit to medium is 8

vocal shard
#

but at that point unity's gonna start splitting your meshes up and killing your shapekeys aka ey etracking and mouth movements so why would you even want to

fringe glade
#

so like people in the beta for several week were litteraly like "yeah no colliders seem like a good vr experience peepoChristmas " ? thinkin

#

No it does not anymore.

true sky
#

@fathom nymph poly count doesnt affect performance. what kills it is too many skinned mesh renderers and materials

heady sequoia
#

2017 doesn't split meshes

fringe glade
#

Welcome in unity 2017

vocal shard
#

dynaamic bones are nice but at least be considerate of frames man no colilders is reasonable

velvet quarry
#

2017 will only split meshes into the millions, if not billions of polys, I don't recall the specific number

vocal shard
#

huh

fringe glade
#

2.5M still does not split.

velvet quarry
#

You'd hardly need anything above 70k though, my primary avatar is 5k, and looks pretty good due to its normal maps.

vocal shard
#

wait what nice

placid umbra
#

I think it splits at like, 2.7 billion

sullen escarp
#

^

fathom nymph
#

@true sky if that's the case, then why does the SDK limit polygons rather than skinned mesh and materials?

sullen escarp
#

should be like 2^31 iirc

the fact that you're starting witch hunts because of this....

placid umbra
#

at that point, multiple meshes is not your main concern lol

steep pagoda
#

lol framerate issues? its litteraly worse then it was in 5.6 near the end (witch was already bad)
2017 improved sooo much in term of performance
and now we went back to square one

true sky
#

@fathom nymph Probably because after 65k polys, the mesh splits into two parts

#

creating a 2nd skinned mesh

vocal shard
#

from what i heard lego th enew update doesn't do that?

umbral nova
#

@velvet quarry It may be higher, but the highest integer I can recall would be 2,147,483,647

vocal shard
#

im drunk right now tho dont trust me

steep pagoda
#

@true sky that no longer happens

umbral nova
#

So unless you want a model that high poly to test that

#

Suggest starting lower lol

steep pagoda
#

in 2017 mesh poly limit in unity is 4billion XD
no longer 65535

earnest ermine
#

oof people are trying to kick you for not having a very poor model and then there's also people trying to kick them

#

vrc battle royale

#

earnest ermine
#

guess I'll take another break from vrc

queen mango
#

What the? People kicking you for having lag-free avatars?

earnest ermine
#

does that surprise you?

queen mango
#

Yes

rigid crescent
#

still spoofing numbers btw

queen mango
#

Just why? YokoStress

earnest ermine
#

why not

tidal aspen
#

people are petty

earnest ermine
#

they're trying to make fun out of it in their own way I suppose

fathom nymph
#

not as surprising as people being able to "force logout" other players

tidal aspen
#

it's like when the trust system thing happened, people memeing and people doing it out of spite

strange wagon
#

so apparently having 1 dynamic bone is enough to have poor ranking? laffeyDrink

placid umbra
#

Nope

earnest harbor
#

it's the transform that nukes rating

sick cobalt
#

Aev plz be my friend in vrchat sadcate i wanna hangout with u peeps every once in a while

vocal shard
#

how are you people even logging in me and like a billion other people can't even enter the game

#

@sick cobalt go to vrchat events if you want ot meet devs and people who know devs dorko

gilded valley
#

Why dont my flying colliders work anymore?? @placid umbra

sick cobalt
#

i know aev

strange wagon
#

i'm just checking my main avatars. so that they aren't stigma'd by poor rating lol

woven steppe
#

sup

strange wagon
#

thank god they are good and medium aniblobsweat

placid umbra
#

@gilded valley I think a method of doing it was fixed/broken, it's definitely still possible

raven silo
#

just have watch how much dyanmic bone you use

gilded valley
#

wtf

woven steppe
#

Wait... That update here already? I was just reading about it in the documentation like yesterday.

gilded valley
#

why was it changed???

placid umbra
#

It's a bug in the first place, these things aren't guaranteed to work

strange wagon
#

damn. i guess rip hair physics peepoStudy

#

unless you want to run around with a very poor rating

woven steppe
#

So how many people have complained already with the stars?

strange wagon
#

my main avatars are fine

#

just not the ones where i did some extra

raven silo
#

only thing need to do reduce the bone in hair

delicate stump
#

If you sit on a station that is on the avatar of someone sitting on you, you get flung into space. This is your punishment for breaking physics. Workaround: Don't do this-- or do, and accept the wrath of Newton

strange wagon
#

all the ones where i put real hair physics on they are pretty much very poor

idle nova
#

Why can not I see my friends?

woven steppe
#

in the menu or in the world?

placid umbra
#

Either they need to update VRC, or you do

earnest harbor
#

so when can we get vrc classic?

raven silo
#

@earnest harbor never update lol

earnest harbor
#

if only 😦

strange wagon
#

hmmmm

earnest harbor
#

I'm just soo happy I get to make my safety setting higher so I don't get crashed for using a public model that's ranked as very poor colbert

strange wagon
#

yea the public model that i use frequently is poor

#

only because of 13 dynamic bone collision counts

raven silo
#

some with to many material or to many bone in skirt and hair

gilded valley
#

legit one of the only fun things about this game was being able to fly on my bird and now thats fucking gone too lmao

#

fuck this game

earnest harbor
#

except people with logout crashers still bypass safety settings anyways

idle nova
#

I enter the map on the friend or he enters mine and I do not see he did not understand why ??

strange wagon
#

system is a good idea. but it seems flawed

earnest harbor
#

love how we alow them to still do that and witch hunt 👌

vast tulip
#

wait, you have 13 dynamic bone colliders?

strange wagon
#

a public avatar

true sky
#

@gilded valley If you want it back, just open up a canny post

strange wagon
#

one i like to use, has poor rating because of 13 dynamic bone collision check counts peepoStudy

raven silo
#

what they remove collider when touch your avatar?

gilded valley
#

all broken

woven steppe
#

I still find it odd that people make it seem that the performance rating is a bad idea

strange wagon
#

hm? i think it's a good idea

raven silo
#

i think good thing show people need figure way fix there avatar

#

without guessing

strange wagon
#

but idk if i'm "stealing frames" if i have 13 collision counts

earnest harbor
#

@woven steppe it's that we wanted to see our own rating, not allow everyone else to see it

true sky
#

its sorta a problem with people who are picky and expect everyone to be very good performing

vocal shard
#

dude collision takes a bunch of cpu cycles even moreso than just havnig straight dynamic bones which are already a bane on our frames

strange wagon
#

so if you have a skirt and have a collider in your hip to make it not clip through, expect poor rating laffeyDrink

raven silo
#

weight painting skirt to leg and and hair can make less bone do alot thing

vocal shard
#

you really don't need colliders if you do the mix of weight painting and bones the right way on skirts reeeee

woven steppe
#

I mean I could be reasonably certain of how good someone's avatar performs without it anyway but it just makes it easier now.

pliant prawn
#

"Several people are typing" - The Channel

vocal shard
#

yeah cause half of us can't even log in so we're here

earnest harbor
#

@woven steppe make it easier for crashers to justify their "job/crusade" you mean?

woven steppe
#

The funky part is that VRC has gone through two somewhat major updates and I still haven't finished the avatar I started making on the start of november

idle cipher
#

im getting ugandan knuckles flash back with this puclic avatar copying

vocal shard
#

and did you remove my post for saying gay im a fag irl reee

opaque jewel
#

Eh, just be like the avatar status system, give it a 9/10. Extreme terrible and needs work.

raven silo
#

cat plugin can reduce avatar with 30 material into 4

vocal shard
#

thats why you atlas reeeeeeeeeeeeeee

vast tulip
#

I would love to see the avatar stats of the people who think its terrible :P

opaque jewel
#

I would love to

woven steppe
#

And people say it's a good way to teach people how to optimize avatars. I ask how

raven silo
#

force them to do it not be lazy lol

pliant prawn
#

My favorite part of VRC is the calamity that is any major update.

strange wagon
#

well, my friend has an optimized avatar with 20k polys and his only dynamic bone are 3 hair bones with a collider in the head and it has a poor rating apparently

#

only 2 materials

true sky
#

no pepe emotes allowed @strange wagon vrpill

opaque jewel
#

Because you know, everything being good to great, but have 4 mesh renderers because I use my tail and ears for animations. So it's apparently bad.

strange wagon
#

i keep forgetting that

#

cause i use them frequently everywhere

raven silo
#

@opaque jewel just combine into one mesh in blender

strange wagon
#

gomene atpQuan

opaque jewel
#

I use them for animations.

vast tulip
#

its not going to teach you how to optimize. it's going to teach you you need to. #avatar-optimization can teach you how

opaque jewel
#

So you tell me how to do that and make them disappear no problem and I'll do that.

vocal shard
#

@strange wagon the problem is >with a collider

#

colliders are checking every frame for the dynamic bone hitting it they're cancer

#

you can do just as good with good weight painting + just bones

opaque jewel
#

it's like having three props.

woven steppe
#

This avatar I'm making is going to be very poor rating if I have to guess

raven silo
#

@opaque jewel cat plugin for blender

#

make it easy to do it

woven steppe
#

And I wouldn't mind

true sky
#

the announcement thing when loading in is really small and cant read it

opaque jewel
#

So how can I make it where just my ears and tail disappear?

true sky
#

in new update

strange wagon
#

idk if i want to spend time weight painting because i despise it

vocal shard
#

weight paint the front of the skirt

#

and dynamic bone the sides

true sky
#

if its got really low polys, add some cloth 😃

raven silo
#

@opaque jewel make them into blendshape

royal basin
#

all i wanna say is i hope there's a better alternative for dynbones in the future

strange wagon
#

my main avatar doesn't use a collider. so my main avatar isn't gimped by the rating laffeyDrink

raven silo
#

@opaque jewel that go in your head in your head and butt

umbral nova
#

@gilded valley my method of flying colliders still work

opaque jewel
#

Thank you

gilded valley
#

none of ours work

umbral nova
#

Mine probably does still

opaque jewel
#

just to let you know, not being a smartass. Just literally thank you

umbral nova
#

My friend Octuplex has the same setup

opaque jewel
#

Didn't even think of that.

umbral nova
#

Since I sent him mine

gilded valley
#

literally every model i have that has it is shit now

umbral nova
#

He says it still work

pliant prawn
#

You all realize that everyone is just going to ignore the whole rating system in a few weeks, right? I mean, except for you niche creators who really care about it.

#

Shit maybe just a few days

raven silo
#

it just make for event host to know who make event lag

earnest harbor
#

only people I'm worried about it are crashers

strange wagon
#

a lot of people who have a shit rig are probably gonna start blocking people with poor rating

woven steppe
#

None of my friends are bothered

opaque jewel
#

@raven silo thank ye, sometimes takes more than one perspective and I'm just slightly annoyed by the system.

vocal shard
#

And the rating system will be refined and changed down the line ... This is more of a rough first version

earnest harbor
#

since they'll use the rating system to justify their crusade

#

@vocal shard what's sad is we told them that the starting numbers were too harsh...

pliant prawn
#

Now if the devs decide to implement and auto-block based on avatar perf rating, that would be fucked.

raven silo
#

@opaque jewel it not like take your stuff away

earnest harbor
#

but they didn't listen

vocal shard
#

They did they changed it already

raven silo
#

yea update today

earnest harbor
#

it's not based off overall, it's off lowest rating

strange wagon
#

@pliant prawn i can see that coming tbh

vocal shard
#

From the first reveal, it was discussed here and they upped it

opaque jewel
#

@raven silo it's all good. It was more on the side of "I made sure to try and optimize this as best as possible and it's still apparently crap"

royal basin
#

@opaque jewel i get that feel

opaque jewel
#

so that just made me annoyed and blind a bit

royal basin
#

i was expecting at least a medium

vocal shard
#

@earnest harbor from tupper earlier on that same subject of averaging it
We thought about it a bit. This is the v1 implementation. We're looking at more advanced ways to weight the "score" to give a better overall rank. That's for v2 though.

halcyon matrix
#

How are you guys enjoying the vrchat update, having fun?

royal basin
earnest harbor
#

like my model with a pair of bones no colliders and 300k tris is very poor, despite itself not having an impact on others' performance on lower end systems

strange wagon
#

well, any type of collider will nuke your rating

woven steppe
#

I lile the update... Ive got 10 more fps than normal

earnest harbor
#

single material, single texture

strange wagon
#

same thing for a friend of mine too, optimized af but 1 collider and rip rating

opaque jewel
#

they should honestly do more of an average scoring system unless one thing is in the red, but I don't know

raven silo
halcyon matrix
#

Nothing wrong with discord wars

opaque jewel
#

See how it plays out

umbral nova
#

@earnest harbor 300k polygons you say? vrpill vrpill vrpill

woven steppe
#

I personally never used dynamic bones.

vocal shard
#

They said they'll work on averaging it later

earnest harbor
#

they should instead have kept the system private like is should've been

halcyon matrix
#

It's good to release stress by

strange wagon
#

i only care about dynamic bones in medium short to long hair

vocal shard
#

Just right now they wanted to get it out

pliant prawn
#

Well anyway since the update I'm not crashing constantly and FR has improved so good job VRC devs for once.

woven steppe
#

ive used cloth physics on hair and clothes ever since I started.

earnest harbor
#

rushing a bad system isn't a good way of fixing a "problem"

raven silo
#

@woven steppe what rating you get

strange wagon
#

i used force on some avatars to make real hair physics, that also nukes the rating lol

royal basin
#

do you need to separate meshes for cloth?

earnest harbor
#

sorry, a "very poor" system

raven silo
#

@royal basin yea

pliant prawn
#

@earnest harbor I see what you did there

woven steppe
#

no idea but Im predicting very poor coz I have 5 mats and 9 meshes.

royal basin
#

damn

raven silo
#

cloth need mesh

woven steppe
#

not just the cloth

strange wagon
#

if you don't have a collider you're good lol

vast tulip
#

5 mats and 9 meshes would not get you "very poor"

strange wagon
#

you can expect any avatar with a collider on it to get atleast poor

woven steppe
#

I decided I dont want to upload 8 separate avatar variants in different clothes.

unkempt cliff
#

Has anyone experienced their descriptors seeming to be pushed forward in-game? For some reason, despite my descriptors being in the middle of my eyes, the sphere being a bit submerged with the surface of the face, if I put my fingers which are human sized near my face, I can see the inside of them. This never happened before from what I could notice as I could never even get my hands that close to my face because of the headset.

woven steppe
#

so I made my ava be able to change clothes

pliant prawn
#

But without colliders how else am I supposed to play with my big anime tiddies?

strange wagon
#

jUsT wEiGtHpAiNt

raven silo
#

still can

vocal shard
#

I guess you can still use them and just get medium score

woven steppe
#

see... cloth collides with disabled colliders so my 50 capsules and spheres are all disabled but interacts with the cloth... gonna go look later to see what my collider count is at.

raven silo
#

dont worry about the star only worry about people doing event lol

jagged mural
#

Having a bit of trouble. Not a single one of my avatars are "optimized" and people are blocking me

fervent fossil
#

why is "Avatar cloning" a thing now? nobody asked for this

strange wagon
#

for public avatars i guess

#

why is that a problem

raven silo
#

just make sure your avatar dont want to be copy set to private

strange wagon
#

public avatars are available to everyone no?

fervent fossil
#

adding public avatars as your favorites was enough

raven silo
#

even the public set one

unkempt cliff
#

You can disable avatar cloning, even on public avatars.

strange wagon
#

i don't see an issue in cloning public world avatars

sonic elk
#

well you could argue it makes it much harder to spot avatar stealers

raven silo
#

so make sure there private dont want random person use them

woven steppe
#

another person who didn't read the fine print

unkempt cliff
#

It’s not a big deal. It can be enabled or disabled at any point.

strange wagon
#

"stealing" public world avatars?

woven steppe
#

to be fair... it is VERY fine

fervent fossil
#

fair for you

raven silo
#

you even change setting

#

turn it off

woven steppe
#

If it really puts you off... then just don't use the feature

fervent fossil
#

my question is, why do we have to go through all that to turn off the feature when we shouldn't even have this feature in the first place?

raven silo
#

it just make raid event eaiser

pliant prawn
#

This

earnest harbor
#

I wish I could disable this avatar ranking "feature"

woven steppe
#

Stop being lazy and just do it

strange wagon
#

i would understand if it's your own avatars. but afaik this feature is for public world avatars only.

fervent fossil
#

how about you stop defending this crap?

raven silo
#

avatar ranking system there so make people aware need optimize if didnt do this might lose more stufff

strange wagon
#

i'm not defending it, i don't see any issue with it.

vocal shard
#

Supposedly the avatar cloning in testing helped promote smaller avatar worlds and circulate less used avatars

woven steppe
#

I'm not defending this crap... I'm just amused at how you're so offended by it

strange wagon
#

like it would be the same thing if people go to that world and take it for themselves

raven silo
#

would you perfer them limit dynamic bone more

strange wagon
earnest harbor
#

@raven silo then make it private and stop giving crashers justification

woven steppe
#

Also the avatar rating system apparently does not count my disabled colliders

#

so yeah... 0 colliders

vocal shard
#

👌

woven steppe
#

my disabled colliders that still do their job lol

fervent fossil
#

shitty update with shitty features. lol

strange wagon
#

meanwhile 1 collider is enough to give you poor

raven silo
#

well it of not use cpu

#

only when it on does

tidal aspen
#

I don't see the issue with avatar cloning, you can turn if off if you dont' want people using the avatar you're currently wearing (if it's public)

vocal shard
#

No, one collider will put you to medium

sonic elk
#

issue is the avatar rating system is poinhtless. mkost will be poor cause of snail marker

true sky
umbral reef
#

Even if its public you can turn it off @tidal aspen

fervent fossil
#

I hope to god someone makes a shitty avatar that can cause lag and have people clone it

strange wagon
#

i have snail marker on every avatar. and the only avatars that are medium and below are the ones that have atleast 1 collider

umbral reef
#

@fervent fossil Just go to any avatar world my dude

tidal aspen
#

people already do that with avatar worlds xd

vocal shard
fervent fossil
#

lol nice

true sky
#

i dont see any animator

strange wagon
#

like legit i have one avatar that only has dynamic hair and skirt and a hip collider and it's poor

fervent fossil
#

i dont' even think dynamic bones have any impact on performances?

umbral reef
#

Because its poorly optimized? Maybe that is why?

strange wagon
#

barely.

sonic elk
#

have an avatar with 0 bones or collideres. no snail markder and very good. add snail marker and goes to pooir

vocal shard
#

Dynamic bones and colliders are the hardest hitters as we've been told by the team

umbral reef
#

Nick- Lets just say you can be happy you said that right now with these people instead of any dev or alike around...

strange wagon
#

well i have snail marker on all of mine. and most are good

wicked marsh
#

mine only has ear dynamic bones so 2, and its poorly optimized its great

umbral reef
#

they are EXTREMELY bad for the game, take up more then most game systems when done bad and colliders are pretty much an x2 against the performance count

strange wagon
#

bad colliders yea. but one?

umbral reef
#

@wicked marsh Two scripts or two calculated bones

fervent fossil
#

the only thing that you'll have to worry about with avatars is the shaders, how many materials they have, and if they have any colliders

umbral reef
#

@strange wagon It still adds a lot

wicked marsh
#

just 2 normal bones

#

It might be the materials tho cause its a xenoverse 2 rip

tidal aspen
#

you can open the avatar's details to see what's giving it the ranking @wicked marsh

umbral reef
#

@fervent fossil Not sure who fed you that false information but

Dynamic bone colliders + Colth colliders
Dynamic bone and cloth
Lose meshes
Materials
Polygons

In that order is how bad the peformance hits are

woven steppe
#

I never really got around to using dynamic bones

wicked marsh
#

ye its his 10 materials xD

woven steppe
#

when I started I didn't have the asset for it

strange wagon
#

hair made out of plastic doesn't look good you know

umbral reef
#

Weight paint it right- Merge useless bones being transformed and you can still be anything above poorly optimized

tawdry hinge
#

Yeah hair concrete went out of style after FF7

woven steppe
#

so I always used cloth... and when I did get some bootleg dynamic bone asset from a friend... I never figured out how the hell to make it work properly.

umbral reef
#

It would be a flat out lie if they claimed that anything with dynamic bones or cloth is optimized

fervent fossil
#

bruh, I have avatars that have like a bajillion dynamic bones on some of my avatars and I have a shitty PC and it runs smoothly even with other people around and they don't have any issues

vocal shard
#

It's not about ONE avatar lagging people

strange wagon
#

yea i only have a medium rig too. so idk what these performance rating are based off of. of what system

umbral reef
#

Tbh- Im not even going to bother defending facts after you stated that
You clearly stated you do not understand how calculating systems works, rendering and unity...

vocal shard
#

Also it's your avatar... So you're not looking at it 🤔

woven steppe
#

VRC player not looking at a mirror? this is new

pliant prawn
#

kek

fervent fossil
#

if you ahve any gaming development knowledge, you'd know that bones in general don't impact gaming performances.

wicked marsh
#

this is mirror simulator

woven steppe
#

because we all know that the best content is yourself

#

a mirror helps you see it XD

sonic elk
#

well technically there there is 1 thing even worse than dynamic bones. the IK itself is shit

umbral reef
#

If this is the state of gamedevs is not odd we get games like Fallout 76

raven silo
#

20 people with dynamic bone 20 bone hair on your cpu would be process 400 bone to make sure there move with dyanmic bone

sullen escarp
#

hey don't diss todd's game

umbral reef
#

@sonic elk Not anymore-- There are plenty of avatars with worse dynamic bone performance then IK takes

tidal aspen
#

@fervent fossil can you tell me how calculating how each and every bone moves and influences the other bones per frame doesn't affect performance

wicked marsh
#

Todd loves his mirrors

sullen escarp
#

he worked hard on his new game

woven steppe
#

I got a shit laptop so I always spend most of my time in smaller friend groups with like less than 10 people

royal basin
#

same

woven steppe
#

that said the new update gave me like 10 extra fps

raven silo
#

dont worry about star then

#

if with friends

strange wagon
#

vr needs a decent rig to begin with, why cater to potato systems then?

umbral reef
#

That is purely because the IK changed

strange wagon
#

that's what i would want to know atleast

woven steppe
#

I don't avoid public even with my shit laptop

umbral reef
#

The IK and VOIP got improved realllyyy good
Only thing shit right now from the game are nameplates

tawdry hinge
#

Not really gonna care about the rating system itself but if people start giving shit for avatar ratings then like tf.

woven steppe
#

I just disable shaders and I swim around in public pugs quite a bit...

strange wagon
#

@tawdry hinge this will 100% happen

tawdry hinge
#

I know.

sonic elk
#

tell that to full body useres after the update itrs fucked 2 full body and frames disapear. was fine before. there are ;people posting about it @umbral reef

umbral reef
#

@tawdry hinge Tbh- Depending the rating they should
If someone knows what they are talking about they can judge a bad avatar fair

wicked marsh
#

im usually only in friends+ anyway and most my friends have worse stuff being in the db community so they cant say anything xD

woven steppe
#

See the best raid is if you all use the same account

strange wagon
#

and because of that i'd feel bad running around with a poor avatar in public lol

pliant prawn
#

@strange wagon because the devs are walking this fine line between letting people with powerful rigs do what they want, and keeping the game accessible to the general public.

umbral reef
#

If its like because of the avatar box its stupid to call them out
If its because of billion unmerged things and dynamic bones- Fuck yes yell at them

vocal shard
#

A small room with a couple people, go all out. A full room with unoptimized avatars has lagged 1080ti's... So can't say "my avatar doesn't affect performance, you just have a potato pc"

tawdry hinge
#

Safety system is there for people with worse rigs

#

But again, it is a VR game.

wicked marsh
#

yea

umbral reef
#

@sonic elk They ran a retardedly short beta so that happens because of that...
Its stupid they did it that short and its prob- a fix they should not have pushed because of that

woven steppe
#

TFW you can afford a VR headset but can't afford a rig to run said headset

tawdry hinge
#

8 hour long beta I was told, thats.. hectically short

umbral reef
#

But the rule still stands- The IK system overall improved in performance by a lot

true sky
#

I wonder how to fix this when uploading avatars and worlds:

  at Mono.Security.Protocol.Tls.SslStreamBase.InternalWriteCallback (IAsyncResult ar) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 ```
vocal shard
#

The closed beta was weeks apparently though

strange wagon
tawdry hinge
#

Yeah but 8 hours isn't really long enough to get a proper public opinion

wicked marsh
#

mxr is the worst for lagging for no reason on vrchat its great

woven steppe
#

people who were asleep probably didn't know a beta happened... like me

true sky
#

i have been unable to update anything since i got that error every time

tawdry hinge
#

Ditto

umbral reef
#

@tawdry hinge My 8700K would like to talk when it jumps from 90 FPS to 30 when i jump towards a different room purely because of avatars

strange wagon
#

better hide avatars that are very poor rated then Kappa

woven steppe
#

also my flying thing still works... I recall someone in here saying that the game sucks now because they can't fly.

pliant prawn

@strange wagon you shut your mouth

@strange wagon i will

And il have no shame in it

pliant prawn

Don't give them any ideas

wicked marsh

umbral reef

Why the fuck should i look at a laggy as fuck avatar thats prob just a potato mirror anyway?
Doesnt add anything to my game and only ruins my performance from peeps with neat animations and shit 👏

strange wagon
#

i'm just glad my main avatar is medium lmao

wicked marsh
#

All i gotta do to get Fu back to optimized is learn to atlus in blender

umbral reef
#

Like shit- Im all against the trust system and stuff but i like the idea of this
Just that the numbers need tweaking what the staff also knows

wicked marsh

everything else is green

oh bOY

pliant prawn
#

Oclac is triggered

vocal shard
#

He just woke up ^^

wicked marsh
#

ok but the hard parts I gotta find and assign the materials cause its a rip xD

#

cats is magical

umbral reef
#

Well no- Its just peeps are saying a lot of uneducated things 👀
Im being really short and blund as else id be typing books as to what they can do

pliant prawn
#

Got 'em

umbral reef
#

@wicked marsh If you only run ~3 materials in the end its easy to export them and assign them manually
Its a lot less bad as when its unmerged and stuff

wicked marsh
#

thankies

raven silo
#

one good thing no more need destory avatar ploygon

#

lol

pliant prawn
#

@raven silo there never was a need tbh

#

Even my idiot friends knew how to edit the SDK

umbral reef
#

It was indeed mainly useless

woven steppe
#

I never really did that since I just uploaded my avatar with the mesh disabled... then an animation activates it when I'm in the world.

#

No idea how to edit the SDK and isn't that illegal?

umbral reef
#

With the old version you had to stay below 65K polys to not get a plit mesh
Right now that number is in a few millions if i recall right

raven silo
#

it against rules even talk about it

umbral reef
#

Editing the SDK was never monitored anyway because of what you said ACH

#

But its technically against the rules

woven steppe
#

only bits I had that went over 65k were some props I made in sketchup

strange wagon
#

feels like a greyzone. everyone did it (or mostly everyone)

umbral reef
#

But they still approved avatars worlds who had it

woven steppe
#

coz... sketchup

raven silo
#

might change next review lol

umbral reef
#

@woven steppe If its not part of the main model it changes nothings
Props are there own lose thing when your looking at avatars imo

pliant prawn
#

Yep. Everyone was fighting the 20k limit since the start

raven silo
#

might not let upload till fix them

#

some world have alot material on there avatar

umbral reef
#

I been always for a dynamic bone cap- Mesh cap and material cap
One at like 500 transforms with 5 colliders
not more then 5 mesh
And 10 materials

#

there is almost no reason at all to ever go above those

woven steppe
#

I should only have 2 materials but shader rendering made my transparent material be wonky

#

and had to split it into 3

umbral reef
#

Maybe the bones even higher GWnanamiLaceShrug I dont use them lagg machines so

raven silo
#

make sure put transparent material on it own material

woven steppe
#

I know

#

I just said that

strange wagon
#

all i want is dynamic hair and that's it blobshrug

raven silo
#

just need reduce the bone

strange wagon
#

and ofc.... plot

pliant prawn
#

p l o t

#

and sometime backstory

strange wagon
woven steppe
#

The problem is that my shader doesn't seem to understand how one transparent material should be rendered when it was in front of another transparent material

#

so those two things are in separate materials now

strange wagon
#

2 transparent materials on top of each other sounds like it's only gonna look bad

woven steppe
#

I managed to make it work but the downside is that I've got 5 mats instead of 2

umbral reef
#

Tbh- I still cant wait for the heaps on content creators toflood this chat and complain there stuff is no unoptimized but was fine before

strange wagon
#

one collider with a certain amount of collisions can give you an ez poor so yea

woven steppe
#

I know my shit's unoptimized but I ain't complainin.. I made it that way... heck 5 materials lol

pliant prawn
#

You mean the heaps of people who keep this free game popular?

woven steppe
#

no colliders tho

umbral reef
#

Well- Im more talking about the very poorly optimized rank or how its called

#

Anyone on poorly optimized has to be manually judged imo
Anything above is totally fine GWnanamiLaceShrug

umbral nova
#

Very poor

strange wagon
#

there is very poor and poor. and i think both are equally bad

umbral nova
#

I still want a weighting system

woven steppe
#

Yo, mine's very poor

strange wagon
#

medium would be the limit for me

ancient kayak
#

i have a question.. if i accidentally enable people to copy my avatar, can he/she still use it after i disable it?

umbral nova
#

My avatars shouldn't be held down because I have audio sources on it

woven steppe
#

because of that clothes changting shenanigans I got

umbral nova
#

When they're inactive at first

umbral reef
#

@umbral nova fairly sure the devs themself also want that but more as version 2 of this system

umbral nova
#

Yeayea ik

raven silo
#

why audio even rank lol

strange wagon
#

@ancient kayak if they copied it before you disabled it, probably.

umbral nova
#

But still, A U D I O

raven silo
#

i dont think audio use much cpu

opaque hawk
#

it can

woven steppe
#

still means it uses cpu tho

umbral nova
#

Mmmm

umbral reef
#

It still does a fair bit- nothing insane like most othey systems but its not lagg free, its still free lagg :^)

pliant prawn
#

Ah yes, the trash fire rages on

stone current
indigo fern
#

Thank you Tupper, very cool

pliant prawn
#

right on schedule

umbral reef
#

Poggers- Another chat mention another strom of msgs

low shard
#

Its warm

umbral nova
#

Ohwait

#

The messages sent already why are they sending again

opaque hawk
#

audio either uses ram or cpu or both. So take that into consideration

umbral nova
#

Oh nvm

fervent glade
#

help

umbral nova
#

@opaque hawk But what about if it's inactive

atomic swallow
#

Nice... so... why are there even things like open beta... if you're going to push the patch out a few hours later. What

pliant prawn
#

There is no help here

umbral nova
#

That's the issue

#

If I have audio sources that only appear upon awake

timid heron
#

How to merge vrc & steam acc together ?

umbral reef
#

@atomic swallow for the idea?

opaque hawk
#

@umbral nova it depends.

#

most of the stuff you do is really short

velvet quarry
fervent glade
#

help it keeps saying "verify email and birthday" and when i put it correctly in it just keeps telling me to do tht

atomic swallow
#

It defeats the point of it being a beta.

pliant prawn
#

@fervent glade welcome to any VRC update

#

Enjoy

fervent glade
#

...

#

tf i do then

velvet quarry
#

@fervent glade The team is aware and is looking into it.

umbral reef
vocal shard
#

The open beta found some bugs, but most of the testing was in the closed beta that lasted much longer

opaque hawk
#

@umbral nova if your stuff is short then unity's default audio settings would be proper

umbral nova
#

@opaque hawk We're talking about the "optimization" gauge here

pliant prawn
#

"The team is aware and is looking into it" should be a slogan

fervent glade
#

e.e

umbral reef
#

Can we maybe get a tshirt with that slogan ?

opaque hawk
#

its one of those things where nobody knows really how to optimize audio in unity so the gauge makes sense.

umbral nova
#

Yes

pliant prawn
#

@fervent glade sorry friend. They'll figure it out.

opaque hawk
#

You much suffer from their incompetence

umbral nova
#

@umbral reef Should I throw the Dosis font or the Nameplate font at you when I get home?

#

Can make that into a meme

umbral reef
#

Yea

languid beacon
#

Oof, 100% of my avatars would be "Excellent" status if a single custom animation didn't knock you to Good

umbral nova
#

Luhmaou get rekt scrub

atomic swallow
#

Oh. Yeah, I know. That closed beta with a handfull of people. stalking1

languid beacon
#

@sterile drift nameplate font please

pliant prawn
#

I'm in for a t-shirt

umbral nova
#

Wrong LoneEevee lmao

brisk umbra
#

Lmao

umbral nova
#

I wonder who that guy is

#

Probably some dweeb

pliant prawn
#

Can it have the red broken avatar model on it, too?

umbral nova
#

Pfft LoneEevee desktop

rigid crescent
#

that thing still happens btw tupper/any dev looking

shy nest
#

i have good avatar rating because im 920 polygons over 32000 PogU

#

time to chop away at something for that perfect

pliant prawn
#

So the avatar rating system is becoming the new 20k limit?

noble narwhal
#

I am gonna use all of the 70k

pliant prawn
#

Something else for people to obsess over

#

Or bypass

shy nest
#

i mean i just want excellent because why not

noble narwhal
#

All of my avatars are bad so are this point I ain't care people can just hide my avatar

vocal shard
#

it's designed in a way so we shame eachother into optimizing rather than them giving us hard limits

shy nest
#

i did that anyway

umbral nova
#

Lul

pliant prawn
#

Yo if you want these jiggly animes you better be ready to lose some frames.

noble narwhal
#

Cause each public world I go everyone has my shaders off so this is no different

raven silo
#

i prefer avatar system over remove and limit stuff

pliant prawn
#

That's just the way of it

shy nest
#

I mean the jiggle anime im making is almost excellent

#

so no reason why you cant make it good

pliant prawn
#

Not that jiggly then

low shard
#

Semi jiggly

noble narwhal
#

I use dynamic bones on almost all of my avatars and people don't complain

low shard
#

Just semi

shy nest
#

I just dont use colliders sansundertale

pliant prawn
#

I want E V E R Y T H I N G to jiggle

atomic swallow
#

I still don't get it. They can see it's flawed. Like really badly so. Why not keep the ranking back and actually tune and fix it... instead of bloody pushing it with the update...

raven silo
#

@vocal shard yes it does if room with 30 people dyamic bone

umbral nova
#

EVERYTHING MUST JIGGLE

shy nest
#

if you want everything to jiggle, use cloth on the entire avatar so its just a pile of mush on the floor

umbral reef
#

@atomic swallow whats fucked then?

shy nest
#

ultimate jiggle

umbral reef
#

@vocal shard because of shitty optimized avatars

raven silo
#

weight paint is our best friend

low shard
#

Annoying but necessary

woven steppe
#

If the entire avatar is cloth... it wouldn't be on the floor

#

it'd just fall infinitely

#

unless you remove gravity

umbral reef
#

Even a small amount with colliders adds up fast

noble narwhal
#

Like almost any public world I go people already have me muted so at this point just do what ever

mighty galleon
#

so wait, the update for 70k is now fully out?

umbral reef
#

Jup sean

mighty galleon
#

kk

raven silo
#

yea

umbral nova
#

Jupanooz

woven steppe
#

Oh god damn it

#

The system no work very well yaes

noble narwhal
#

Well I mostly use dynamic bones for hair breasts booty sometimes for tail or skirt etc

ancient kayak
#

new update causing wayyyy too much lag

pliant prawn
#

Really?

lusty hearth
#

But no-one needs boob/booty colliders 😊

woven steppe
#

new update gave me 10 free fps...

shy nest
#

346 from excellent but I cant spare anymore angerycog

noble narwhal
#

I ain't care if it says poor I just dont

pliant prawn
#

Plz stop DeeJay

ancient kayak
#

i was in box lag free and server is lagging

umbral reef
#

Well- The first problem is being in the lag free box

#

And not just being in the box :^)

woven steppe
#

Why are you in the box lag free... when it's probably the worst case of false advertisement?

ancient kayak
#

isit because everyone using same avatar(which is poorly optimized)?

vocal shard
#

You can still get medium with 32 dynamic bones

shy nest
#

I mean I don't really care if its just good, at least it aint poor QuackThinking

umbral reef
#

@woven steppe Its just writen the wrong way aroudn
They meant to type "FREE LAGG WORLD"

woven steppe
atomic swallow
#

Hidden parts that do not influence anything kicking you down. The bloody stages It goes in as well. The fact it's all based for the lowest of the lowest specs of computers it seems. It feels like they're shoving optimisation problems onto the people instead of fixing it themselves. It's lazy.

woven steppe
#

Box O' Lag

umbral reef
#

Aslong as your above poor
On poor with a valid reason (bounc size for example)
You should not care imo

#

Else you kinda should start caring as the numbers that low arent too bad

shy nest
#

well I mean it makes sense to base it sorta close to minimum spec for vr, most people arent running 2 2080ti's with a fucking i9

umbral reef
#

@atomic swallow They fixed IK by a lot, the voip is fixed even more
The only main thing they could fix right now is the nameplates...
So im unsure why you are saying they need to fix there game

fringe glade
#

the legs are jittering in full body, fixed joint is still not fixed while being the most upvoted thing in the canny since before the 2017 update

umbral reef
#

Welp im out for a while 👋 dont shitpost too much owkay

woven steppe
#

does dynamic bones not work if you disable the colliders?

fringe glade
#

anything more ? @umbral reef

#

I could keep going if you want, logout, public unitypackage in the API

woven steppe
#

I know that... I meant do they work if the colliders are disabled but still in the model?

fringe glade
#

No.

woven steppe
#

Because I know cloth will still interact with colliders that are disabled

#

which is why the game rated me with 0 physics colliders

#

when I actually have like 50

atomic swallow
#

Im going to ignore this ranking system anyway. fastraindowdance

woven steppe
#

that's what most people do

flint ore
#

I miss the other Birb world.

woven steppe
#

There just seem to be a select number that like the look of a green star

opaque remnant
#

it's useful for finding that person that drops the frames by 10, but that's about it

languid beacon
woven steppe
#

I like the Caution sign

atomic swallow
#

Boy... last night i saw a avatar classed as good... it dropped me 15 frames. The thing is already circumvented to troll people.

languid beacon
#

Nothing's being circumvented, their avatar would have been laggy without the system

shy nest
#

last night?

#

pretty sure its only been around for a little bit now

atomic swallow
#

Beta.

languid beacon
#

It's been on beta since yesterday

shy nest
#

maybe your computer is just shit

safe prism
#

i mean i can have a very good avatar, do a crazy shader, and you'll lag

indigo fern
#

💩

safe prism
#

the edge cases don't outweigh the benefits

umbral nova
#

@languid beacon Are those the real textures?

languid beacon
#

They are the official ones from the ranking page, with whitespace cropped out, downsized to emoji

umbral nova
#

Mm

rigid crescent
#

chairs scale with bounds

umbral nova
#

What if I...

#

Because remember what I can do Adeon lmao

languid beacon
#

recommend creating chairs on a cube instead of an empty, it doubles as the collider making it much easier to resize than the stupid bounds

#

at the price of 12 more polys /shrug
