Exactly lol
How voyeuristic 
I was just thinking that.. sorry lol

Sounds like they both need to get a room, and some l--ger--
I know people who erp, use a fleshlight when they erp or in public, hiding in the tent of "never have I ever" or some other maps
some j--- dan----
Jack Danger?
Huh.. they never know what the word "privacy" means to them..
also does this count as nsfw
someones avatar had a bulge which was ok ig
but had a gesture that basically made them .. erect.. ?
in the pants
That's pretty questionable.. is it on an MMD- oh my..
Like there is a literal pe--s outline in the pants?
so its not like am asking for no reason
well if uve ever seen completely moronic "college" movies
when the dude gets hard and hes wearing pants thats what it looks like
Oh, the kind where there's basically a horizontal pylon..
🤢
No extra details? Like no bulge, just a protrusion?
Oh.. 
again rhey already had a bulge
but looked like someone took a random wooden stick and put it there
That's not how bulges are s'posed to look like..

👀
Oh dear...
It's like the pants just lose their structural integrity and stretch like elastic something...
That's pretty questionable compared to, say a rounded bulge..
The rounded bulge is still questionable in its own, but pretty safe if it's covered by a skirt.
I didn't think I needed to ask actually
...what is it?
For this to go to #general-media
Does anyone actually find people to hang out with on vr chat anymore, I can't find anyone tbh
no one talks

and a lot of people talk
almost every place i go to people are either playing games together or talking
its kinda the point of vrchat
every where i go people are just sorta there tbh
go to the PUG or NHIE or murder or hangout house or something
I'm usally on at like midday for me
for how long constantly changes nd everything depends on what else i gotta do that day
I'm usually on VRC the entire day during vacations, well until now.
Wait, so if I'm using the oculus client to play vrchat, will it still monitor my hours so I can rank up? Or does it look at your steam hours on the game
The trust system does not use Steam hours
Got it
Hey I use an oculus when I play VRChat, I have a question, when people invite me to worlds, how do I accept the invites?
They should be appearing on your quick menu, should be as easy as opening it up, selecting the invites, and accepting them.
I don't have an invite option on my quick menu. I've looked for a while at the different things on the quick menu for efficiency and understanding. I have never seen anything for invites
What sort of invites are you recieving? Are you getting this
icon on your HUD anywhere?
you hit that and accept the invite
I don't think you get what I mean
Like when I get an invite the
icon shows up next to the microphone thing without any menu showing up? I don't know what to call it
How did this guys profile pic get past the bot?
Oh I changed it recently, I'll change it back
🤔
I changed it earlier this morning as a joke in one of my DMs
I'm not entirely familiar with what button on the Oculus Touch would open the quick menu, but its the same button you'd use to bring up the Avatar and Worlds menus.
Above the Worlds option, there's some empty space, invites'n such will appear up there.
Here I'll try to take a few pictures of what I am seeing
When I can of course, it is 11PM
I'm pretty sure we got the idea already
All we're not sure about is how you can't open the menu
@acoustic fog are you in vr or in desktop?
Literally said Occulus...
I'm in VR, I said oculus
@woven steppe okay calm down ther buddo
I'm calm... I'm just surprised you didn't catch that
@acoustic fog To accept an invite open your menu by clicking the A button on your right controller.
in your right hand you should now see a menu
click the
icon
and hit accept
They just explained this to me if you look up in chat then you would understand
It's still not entirely clear what's going wrong though
The presume the problem is that the menu isn't showing up
That's why I'm gonna try and take screenshots in the morning
The :VRcinvite: icon is not showing up
Hopefully someone will be able to help you then I suppose.
Is what I am trying to say
do you have do not disturb on?
and before someone tells me to read above, i can barely see.
Good question, I have had some people forget they left that on
I have never turned it on
if you have do not disturb on... you also will not see the icon next to the mic. Unlike what Toiinite has described
From what I can deduct... the
icon shows up. but when the menu is opened, it's not there. Is this correct?
Yeah
The only thing I can think of then is that the invite timed out the moment you opened the menu
That's it, that's what I've been trying to say. I'm not good at explaining,
If that is indeed the case, all I can really recommend doing is to follow some of the general troubleshooting steps at #vrchat-support , and if that doesn't work, contact the support team at support@vrchat.com
But that shouldn't really be much of a problem since invites take a long time before timing out
It could also be some temporary server troubles, is it recent, or has it been happening consistently as of late?
Thanks for trying to help me.
Also when I get the invite I'll open the menu it disappears, but if I close it again it shows back up
It has been there for the entire time I've been playing VRChat
That's really odd problem. Because I remember a time when invites were broken but never thought much about that after it was fixed.
How long have you guys been playing?
When we first started playing VRChat?
i was here a couple months before public/private
October 2017 for me
June 2017
According to steam I've been playing for 19 hours
i only have 571 but my friends have 900
Nice ^^
I've got like only 3 friends on steam that plays VRC
So I can only ever see those three's hours logged..
holy crap... one of em has 5600 hours
that's like... 8 months spent ingame
5600h is pretty nasty indeed
Pretty late, but I started on April 14, 2018
At that time, I was still aware that there were Ugandan Knuckles still roaming around
The first day was my most awkward moment, to be honest..
the first day is always the most awkward moment so ur not the only one 😉
I dunno.. I was uncomfortably laughing when I encountered a total stranger, the first in my 8 months..
well everyone in VRChat are strangers unless you get to know them more, thats the whole point of VRChat no?
Umm, yeah..
I may have been playing for a total of 500 hours.. it's now around 514 hours
le sigh
During that time, I was able to get more and more accustomed to the "eccentricies" of the community.
And that was before I gotten into a group of people I can hang out with..
And by extension, this Discord.
Even before that.
...Times were good back then, when all you could was wonder what your friends are doing right now.
hi
Hello 
anyone playing atm
Lots of people right now
oh
what
There are better people you can add than me.
only looking for friends
oof
well first if you want someone to add you, be sure to talk with them more
mhmm
Not gonna lie I’ve met most of my “good” friends through some weird meme way
Do u kno da wae? 
Like for instance me and these two guys had a waving contest for 20-30mins
omae wo mou.... shinderu
dont have a mic so I can only nod my head to communicate with people ... and pens
Playing in VR?
PC ...
yep ...
That's gonna be hard..
Especially since the Tell Your Word world is no longer available, as I heard
Do you have a Text To Speech program you can use to chat?
Not really I have a lot of mutes that were on desktop
nope ...
mute desktoppers 

"being mute in VRChat" 
talking 
...
voice chat ruined gAme
Is there a messaging system on VRchat?
I don't think there is a true messaging system in VRC. You can only send invite messages, and receive said invite messages
So ... If you don't have a mic ... There's really no way to communicate with people?
It's a possibility that you can communicate well, but it's difficult
That said, there are some high-quality microphones you can buy online.
So if you're looking to chat with people, you gotta make sure they can hear you loud and clear
There was a very basic API level messaging system in the past, but it was shut down entirely as it was an experimental feature not meant to be used yet, wouldn't expect it to be back any time soon.
The development will always be mainly focused on VR I would imagine, so desktop functionality like text chat has always been on the backburner, you could vote on the Canny to have such features implemented, but I don't think they'd be a priority.
Is anyone else having login issues?
loads of people are having login issues... someone talks about it basically everyday
I just figured out my issue. It was an issue between my brain and my keyboard
Thank you friend
You can send premade text messages as gestures and emotes
You could even do a slideshow if you're that creative
I've done that before but I'm a desktopper. I had to project the images from my body and stay still
My avatar had projectors on the arms but I cant move them
Anyone else crashing all the time when they enter a well-detailed world?
Do you also crash when entering a +20 player world
You need to upgrade your computer parts
Or you can talk to a player veteran
Peeps are sleeping at this time
I'm at night shift
Btw ...
Is there any way to edit existing avatars?
I really love one of Mitch Murder's avatar ... But it's a bit too tiny
Nope
The original person would have to reupload the model with new fixes @vocal shard
alternatively you could upload one yourself. It's not unheard of for people who make these avatar worlds to send the files of one of the avatars to you if you really fancy it.
I don’t think Mitch murder sends his models out, most people don’t
heres a guessing game
- Indian
- Thick Hispanic Accent
- A Crasher
@stoic halo all 3?
Anyone know if there's a way to see who made a favorited avatar? other than watermarks
Are the servers down? The games been loading then logging in over and over. It's barely using any ram or my network. It just loops that over and over.
that bug has been there since the pre-christmas update. Cancel the login procedure and type in your login data again
it will then log in just fine for some reason
Is anyone else experiencing super long delays for everything in VRChat recently? It takes like 1 minute just to get it to say "logging in" and loading friends profiles. Also when people invite me to their world it just stays stuck on "0/0mb 0% loading".
My internet speed is the same as it always is (2mb/s - Australia) and my computer is running on a GTX 1080Ti, I7 8700k
I tried clearing cache, reinstalling VRChat and restarting my computer. I'm at a loss as to why this is happening and want to fix it asap.
It seems I'm not the only one experiencing this either: https://www.reddit.com/r/VRchat/comments/acsmnl/help_having_the_infinite_loadinglogging_in_bug/
Could someone from the VRChat team please help?
Nope you're definitely not the only one
i'm unable to auto login
so i need to enter my info (1x) every day
is that problem will be fixed any time soon?
@vocal shard You can get an avatar with a marker and write in the air, or you can get a text to speech program, also you can get a $10 cheap audio headset from Walmart or something
People not wanting to talk is more common than not having a mic, recommend just buying a mic in that case.
there's also the case of people who has a noisy household and would rather not have all that shit carry through.
High quality headphones tend to be around 30 dollars. Noise cancellation technology has become very advanced and affordable :]
yea if u have a headset microphone or one built into the vr headset
those are put rlly close to the face and designed 2 have a lot less disruption
than ur typical laptop or band mic
also mics have typically have a higher noise dropoff than the ear
Well these days they just do noise cancellation with two extra microphones on the outside of the ears that listen for all of the sound that’s not coming from your mouth and subtract it from the stream
ye
theres also push to talk
these doods be pressing mute button i just hold down menu button or something 2 say stuff
unfortunately it won't let me bind the joystick down for whatever reason
like in rec room
Get autohotkey, it can remap anything to anything. Just don’t use it with competitive games they see it as a cheat program.
yea i get that but
how would that work for push 2 talk
bc its an steamvr tool bind that has only a specific set of inputs from the oculus touch controllers
would i just bind it to the desktop push 2 talk key
cuz like atm in vrchat left joystick down is unbound
You bind a oculus touch button to manually set your volume to 1 on key down and 0 on key up
but will the other way not work
Push to talk for games that don’t have it
ptoblem. when i disable IPv6 support in my router, i cant connect to vrchat
known issue?
dont disable it?
is it only vrchat
or is it every server
usually routers have both an ipv4 and ipv6
^

its not just about routers. ipv4 gets more and more replaced with ipv6 everywhere cus there is only so many ipv4 adresses.
yea
you should not just disable the whole protocol
thats gonna give you many future issues
idk y u would need to
u can always use like googles public dns addresses or something
if its a fault with the ip itself
ye
i used 2 have issues where
like it would say my wifi was in bedtime mode or paused
when literally was never enabled
and until support fixed it i had 2 use google public DNS for both bc google was the only site that could be accessed
hey do any of u know
if enabling discord overlay in vrchat also shows it in the headset
oof
anyone know how to make that happen 
people have told me with WMR theres a windows link
so theirs show in the middle of the screen
but i dont want that i want it in the corner
ye but like
i see steam notifications
so i would assume theres some way 2 do it
nuisance
Nuisance?
basically means theyve been blocked several times
and are likely just trolls and assholes
more then just that 😃
ye
they have their own safety settings ranked below the ones u choose unless u unmute and show avatar
also i have a question
what actually is the purpose of nuisance that dissatisfies a ban or kick
Nuisance ranks aren't malicious enough to break TOS but they get muted, kicked, warned and blocked so often that they drop ranks below visitor
Yeah but there's literally no reason for them to keep their account at that point
but isnt it against the rules to harrass people
You have to mute and unmute them to even be able to hear them which isn't clear either
idk y u would be blocked so many times if ur not harassing them...
And even at Shield level None you can't see their shaders
but it also allows them to create alternate accounts and start over
Well, IMO it's a result of the avatar cloning system, they probably clone unoptimized or spammy avatars
unless theyre just gonna troll with those also...
i think its also a problem for visitors actually
cuz people who start out the game might have no idea about this lag and unoptimized thing
and theyre like 1 rank above nuisance
as opposed to a dedicated troll having like known user or something
You should be able to turn cloning off on your own avatars, and an avatar should not be cloneable unless it's approved in a public avatar world at least once
There's so much unoptimized crap going around right now.
I had to block half a lobby's avatars because they all cloned the same unoptimized 10k dynamic bone transform piece of crap (yes, really)
yea ik
thats what i told a lot of people
but they didnt listen theyre like
"oh no it doesnt matter bc they can just go to the world and get it what difference does it make"
yea sure bc trolls joining at the same time = half the server changing into the laggiest thing on earth
It makes a difference because now you don't need worlds lol
And especially with favouriting avatars, all it takes is one guy in a Frozone avatar to enter the lobby with cloning turned on
not just that but like
And now everyone has it
i joined into a specific instance
it was fine for 2 seconds
but then someone joins with one of those naked avatars with a huge u-kno-wat
and someone else has an incredibly laggy tank
and the entire server except for me and like 3 people turned into those
and i had 8 frames and looked out of one corner
and just immediatelly crashed
What kind of tank is it?
those gigantic tanks with way too many polygons and particle effects that make ur pc explode with computation
Ah.. the Abrams tank, with those air raid siren and nuke bomb gestures.

The barrel alone must've been around one or two million polys.
And people just cloned the hell out of it?
What if. You could block specific avatar blueprints
If they change avatars you can see them
Yeah we need three options on avatar upload. Private, Pedestals-Only, and Public. The new option being the old version of public before cloning existed you cannot clone them only grab them from the pedestal yourself.
itd also be super cool if it could show the pedestal it was taken from
like if every time u add a pedestal in a world it will add itself to some array
Yeah “taken from world XXX”
Or the world where it is taken from
Though there is no gruntee the world still has that pedestal
Or that the world still exists
Joined in on several publics where half the lobby was using this Evangelion avatar. A huge scuffed version. I see them reload/restart. Wonder if it's a bait avatar :/
And many worlds can have the same avatar blueprint
yea but like
u could store it on the person bc it already stores what avatar u are currently wearing
so it would just be another value to save
Be nice to find the world it's from
it wouldnt work for people who have had the character for some time
or who have it favorited
but it would work for future pedestal grabs
I guess, I don’t know how they handle their assets. I imagine it could be done.
it can also be like this
how for example u can search an image on google
and find a bunch of places the image appears
u can use a tab that says 'worlds avatar is in'
and u can pick one of those to go to
which goes back to my previous idea
Some people want public avatars that are pedestals only, and not cloneable, so they can only give it to some friends, but those friends can’t give it out.
of pedestals adding to some indicator
Yesterday I saw some nsfw avatars. my pure eyes have been tainted
lol
honestly u get 2 the point where it happens so often or uve seen so much that u dont even care anymore
I know
Seeing nsfw content you didn’t wish to see is against vrchat and steam tos, report em
yeet their acc out the window
May I wiah to know what your age is when you saw them?
It's a big no-no when it's accidentally shown to underage people
I am over 18
Age has nothing to do with it, I’m 32 and I’d prefer not to see giant cloth physics dongers in vr.
Lol

18 is the age
no duh
For that

But no really report that stuff, it isn’t allowed on steam or oculus home
unless u dont care for it
At least not in public, or around anyone who dissent want to see it.
if u dont care it shouldnt matter but if u do then do
It was public I think
The rule is nsfw belongs in invite only worlds.
thats basically the 'rule' even tho its not the actual rule
Not 💯 sre
yea ik but not everyone likes to follow it
both a good thing and a bad thing
but it does make sense to not report something if ur ok with it
the problem is when someone else isnt
and its more their job 2 do it
I just was in a world a person was walking around with some striper model that a wee wee that grew
That’s why I said if you don’t like it, report it
In the ehem... hen--- genre, it's called fu--nari
i.e. joining friends+ worlds and telling someone to 'whip it out' just so u can secretly report them
thats just being a dick
pun intended
I seen my fair share of avatars what should not be in public world
I have been crashed guned before
My gpu was at 100% usage when us normally like 50
I don’t think they’re specifically a rule for it, but it would also be extremely unwise to upload a public, clonqble, nsfw avatar, even if you only intend it for invite only use, other people abusing it will probably get YOU moderated, not them.
Every public uploaded avatar has an author that is tracked and publicly visible now
That in itself would become an epidemical problem
Yeah
Yes
Ah, I forgot about that
well yea but every blueprint has like some meta information attached
Now normal people can see who it is
its kinda like when u go to make a request to a webpage
theres a bunch of other stuff/data on it thats kinda for other use like google searching and etc
I dunno about that, Wulf.. the majority of non-regulars here aren't exactly known for their knowledge with the game itself
yea ik but it probably does have meta information
True
makes it a lot easier to see whats up with a file for debugging and tracing purposes
I mean, chek what happened back on Nov. 2, they were unknowledged about the server issues
ya ik that but thats besides the point
like they could be uploading the blueprint with some data attached to it like
Creation: date, Owner: user, FileSize: size
so that no backtracking is required
I am pretty sure that how performance system works
they could just go off the owner
no its not
performance is calculated in runtime
its estimated in the SDK
Ah
but in the game its based on the current character
so if u enable particles or something like that it should change
if the particles lowered the rating
but what im saying is like
if they didnt have this theyd probably have to do a bit of research to find out who the owner is
It would be nice if you could turn shaders off for yourself to see how you look to others without your shaders, I have avatars that I didn’t realize were falling back to the wrong internal shaders
Yes please I would love this feature.
anyone know where i can find that bob ross model
i cant find the actual thing so anyone know the world name
pls @ me i love and need that model
Hey anyone there
Generally
When a hackers name himself God lmao.
Hoi
o/
ALERT ALERT CALLING MOTHERATOR INSPECTION
someone spawn a huge amount of items in hub and home
to be more specific a lot of balls and gun items
please react on this
I'm sure they are aware that someone can go into visual studio and edit one thing and start spawning millions of those balls
Ohh boy, thanks for bringing up this issue that probably has been brought up 10 million times ultrazeon
Totally useful
what the evil people want to achieve
hm... i wonder
maybe to make dev's to limit or disable everything so vrchat can be misrable and poor once again
someone need to stop those guys
VRChat is very customizable
Not open source
^
Corrected myself, I realized that
People can make their own avatars and worlds, restricting them further would kill it
Thanks for the report NPF
I have opened a case with the ID: N0T0 EX15T 1N60 for you.
ah shit i messed that up 

but seriously what are you trying to tell us. That there is bad people doing bad stuff?
If you encounter someone doing things against the rules gather prove wether or not thats screenshots, videos or on crash cases the output log and send a moderation report to moderation@vrchat.com
There is also limited option to do some reports from in game from the user menue.
^^^^
Submit a formal report, that’ll tell em more than a vague complaint
@elfin cloak ^
hey, how can i participate in vrchat events? is there a room for events or something?
@sleek oar There is a VRChat event discord channel
Check the pinned post in the #events channel
In what room is the EUVR event happening though? It doesn't say specifically.
Now I don't know what's EUVR.
"Saturday, January 5th 2019, 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm UTC
EuVRVision is a European time-zone based VRChat Variety show. The aim of the show is to promote various artistic talents of the VRChat community.
All talents are welcome, from musicians, to dancers, to singers, to beatboxers, if you have a talent, we want to see it!
Local Time•Today at 3:00 PM"
^This event, listed in the events section. But there's no room listed for us to actually go to
As false said, join the event discord
They will provide all information for the events and once they start in there
Oh, it's a seperate discord? I thought he meant the 'Events' section in the general tab on this discord.
Unfortunately it's impossible for me to post the link to the separate event Discord because they automatically remove messages with discord links in them. 😅
@ruby needle i was with my friends in public place when someone sudenly spawn a bunch of items in the new hub and when we evacuate to default home public there is a guy who fallow us and from there spawn a huge amount of guns.
so what you did not understand?
You need to tell them that through an email
And maybe give more details than “there was a guy”
Like maybe the players name
o sure sure
i dont have enough patients for that
Ow no someone shot me! Help me! But dont tell me to call the cops and an ambulance! Thats too much work!
Without being mean though- How do you expect the guy to be punished if you dont report it? Your allowing himt o cause more havoc without taking action.
it''s not just for me
that person attack 13 of us in there
Thats great but what you said has zero information
i know i know
but what i can do
i try to record that person but the thiing is that i dont know who was it
if you have no prove, nothing.
but coming here and telling "someone did something" aint changing anything about that 
Outputlog? And the exact local time of when it happens?
so in that point
we are hopeless
🤔
Oh, and if you do have issues send a report mail. Or use the ingame report function if you are lazy.
But dont come here, cus this is the wrong place for reporting.
Outputlog. And the exact local time of when it happens? Nothing we can do beside find exactly out who spawned the things and report himw tih the loggs 👀
!outputlog
You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat named output_log.txt
we didn't know who was it
so how we can know who was it if we don't know who was it
the report is impossible
exactly
Then why complain ?
then why did you come here to report someone who did something?
My dude- You actually ignoring me? Like is that what your actively trying to do or what?
to much laaaaaaag that's why
good point
bcz that's is hopeless
If you have had something happen next time grab your outputlog from what the bot said above and send a mail to moderation@vrchat.comexplaining what happend.
@elfin cloak If you send your outputlog with the exact time of when the things spawned. The admins will have enough information to ban him as i stated 3 times by now...
alright
i will tell that to my friends as well
thanks for an info
damn.....the vrchat really knows how to crash...
it crashes really really badly in the last few days...
it never crashed before even that i use an old CPU...
hope vrchat will fix this.
Well it might not be VRChat itself that is broken.
Could be a lot of things, such has GPU drivers, Windows updates, bad cache that needs to be cleared, people using crashing avatars, etc.
How does it crashes ? Does it just close and nothing else ?
It’s not VRChat, because, if it was, others would experience the same issues, as @acoustic ravine stated, you need to do some self diagnosis, narrow down what the problem is
I wonder... can I find a user by their "old", original username after they changed their username for something else ?
I think it's possible on Steam but I don't know about VRChat.
I Would Play Some VRChat, but i fucking can't because i have to wait another year to get a good computer that will handle it, i play VRChat on a Shit AMD laptop..
@acoustic ravine I believe so yes, a user's original name is still stored.
Fairly sure we cant look it up though Afro
oh
Cause that would be handy to keep bad people on radar.
@pastel frost Also- VR (and with that VRchat) is high end tech and part of the modern gaming club
You also can not expect to run an AAA game on that laptop...
There is sadly nothing the team can do about it.
That's good
And then the fact almost all content within VRchat is user made. Its even worse to run for most machines.
Desktop mode VRChat should run okay on most average computers. But VR mode... that's top tier PC gaming requirements.
@acoustic ravine Most school/work/nextflix laptops cant handle desktop mode properly at all... They wont get those 45 stable fps at all and its even worse when they join a bigger world
Eh..
I assume most of the stuff running around on VRC is based on unoptimized models and rigs
@umbral reef yeah I would classify school/work machines as "Low tier" lol
@umbral reef If you search for an user with their original name on the website, it'll show the user, even with their new name.
My dad's laptop has a Nividia graphics card in it
which might run VRChat well
so ima go play it
@velvet quarry Now that's handy. The griefers cannot escape under the radar. 👍
It does? Intresting. But there is no way from the old name to be linked to the new name?
Havent seen that option on the website to check someone old name with there current one
It'll list both names on the profile
I run VRC on a laptop but it's a gaming laptop with an external graphics card
New name above, old original name below.
@acoustic ravine to many errors..
but most of times crashes with the crashing message
it wasnt that glitchy before when i joined the vrchat several months ago.. and like i said i have an old CPU and it didnt crashed like that before
i know its the game it self and not my drivers or cache..
It does 
Dam never noticed that then
@lethal summit Best bet would be to grab the output logs and send them to the tech support so they can see if it's something they can fix or something you can fix.
i usualy use the best drivers that works on my pc and not latest version
most of the latest version breaks some stuff on my hardware cus they get optimized for other games or whatever...
3-4 updates ago the game was fine..
Say, is anyone with Oculus having a bug where you cant open your desktop view without the game locking itself?
Somebody know how you get back from Known User to User? (I mean, why someone is not know user anymore?)
Yeah dont get demoted.
demoted?
All I know is you lose rank as punishment for doing shit you shouldnt be doing
so likely is that you or whoever else this is about has been reported for something you or they did.
I suppose a long time of inactivity could also do it
Mhmm... I wonder what I did wrong. I was so proud of the role known user 😅
If I recall correctly as well, getting blocked does eventually lower your rank.
Oh. but people block me randomly beacouse I have a furry avatar XD.... well nevermind. I will probably be happy the next time I get back my known user tag :/
We have noticed that removing loads of friends also lowers the rank
Than you guys for helping me and repling @gaunt dagger @safe yacht
I might be killing myself then by removing most of my friends.
we're not talking about one or two regular block hell not even 10. but like. big regular waves within the same instance.
The exact details remain unknown to this date tho.
does anyone know where i can find a meliodious avatar from the seven deadly sins? 😃
Terrible anime. Watch a better one!
haha
You're welcome.

The model does look a bit, off though.
What the hek?
BIG REGULAR WAVES? D:
(never actually did something so terrible to be blocked from an entire room, hell not even for 5 persons.)
Actually 3 people blocked me once in a Great Pug beacouse I was singing around with a voice changer XD ... but that is another story, I asked them sorry with the help of a friend 😅
Damn I really want to know what I actually did wrong 🤔
I am sor curious and kinda like ''DUDE!! I WAS PROUD D:'', but more curious than this
thats sounds horrible 
Concerning the removal of friends lowering rank-- if so, that'd be quite unfortunate. I had recently removed a lot of inactive friends or people I don't know well enough and never had that kind of problem.
^^^OOF. Well I hope you are not going to be rank lowered
if i'd have to take a guess it might think a lot unfriendet you?
that would explain that
nobody knows the algorithm but that would make sense
My rank didn't lower. I'm still trusted. Them removing you would entirely plausible in terms of getting demoted.
So I do agree with that being the case.
I don't know, normally I kinda jump from friend to friend so people don't usually unfriend me (or this is how it should work I guess)
And I am always around people talking randomly. Well I am just curious. One day I will find out what I did
In the meantime is not such a big deal. I mean yeah... the red tag is cool and all (and people think you are cool and all) but I am just enjoing the game and staying around people talking to them, so... I am just a little ''not proud anymore'' lol.
its orange
hey anyone uses oculus
^^^^ I still see it red XD
If you'r'e looking for a rank up-- making maps I believe does help increase your rank though, at least from my experience. Of course you can't just make a map and expect to become trusted or get a higher rank, they actually have to be good.
Yes @vocal shard
is it just me or on oculus louncher for vrc the controllers vibrate way more than in steam vr
Heeem... I am kinda, no, really bad into making 3D stuff. I tried but I always failed, so yep, I don't think there will be a chance for me to have the ''trusted user'' thing
Mm. It'll just take longer for you to get trusted basically but if you're active and social enough, it shouldn't be a problem.
Like, I had trusted way before my other friends did with only like, 50 people on my friend list.
its really weird bcs on steam vr it didnt use to vibrate that mutch
Some worlds seem to vibrate my controllers some times.
The problem I'm having with Oculus now, is that it breaks whatever game I'm in when I try to open the Oculus menu.
does anybody know if you can turn off vibration on the oculus controlers
People talking about VR ^^^^^
Me: ''I DON'T HAVE HANDSS!!'' XD (basically the most popular joke for desktop users)
or make it less
I will tough -.- only to hug my friendos in VRChat ^-^ can't wait for it
(and of course to do cool VR stuff you can do)
I imagine you'd have to check the Occulus home/whatever it was called to try and disable the vibration. If it doesn't have it, then that's odd.
I've never messed with the Occulus controller settings but I'm sure they're there somewhere.
I see why people would unfriend you now...
well i have cheked in the menu cant find it
Let me open up my Occulus too and see if I can help you.
and @safe yacht are you by chance swedish ?? just asking bcs it seems like swedish name
Yes
eyy viste det
Oh. I am sorry then. See ya next time I guess
nah but i cant seem to find where i can turn off the vibration for the controlers
Concerning the Rift controller vibrations, it would be best to email their support. I personally tried checking online however, apparently this is a rare issue/result.
@safe yacht
That wasn't nice at all and... I am just trying my best. Said this, have a nice day sir.
(and I don't think people unfriended me. Just saying)
lol bein blocc for a furry
i rarely get bloccd and mine looks like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/505877446952747014/529595488421543956/image0.jpg lol
Lucky you, people insulted me randomly just now beacouse I am a fluffy creature. The hek
woof
I really want VR with motion controllers and sensors 😦
how long does it take for the Devs to allow you to upload an avatar?
@regal jewel 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
Why can't I find that many servers for rooms that have a total of hundreds between them?
They only display 5a6 rooms for every high instance rooms
There's no way to refresh these?
Why they did it is exactly unknown but id guess to make there server load less bad but its something users complain about often
It's a bit tiresome to be going back to the same rooms again and again.
And nope- Your stuck with almost full rooms or almost empty ones
I've noticed that, once a few people leave your instance no new people come in as you don't appear on the public instance list
i wonder if people would be against VRChat merging public instances
And so it begins...
The public instance list is a shitshow right now
If I want to bring 4 friends into a new Pug instance I can't
what
Only instances with 19 or 1 people show up
You can only see like 5 random instances
4 full ones and 1 nearly empty one, it's really fucking dumb tbh
Nobody asked for this
oh you said a new one
I've been noticing that too
I also keep randomly getting teleported into empty instances
Join a 17/25 box, get taken to a 4/25 box with all steam users blindly staring in the sky
how do i access the windows mic settings for Vrchat?
@nova oasis If you just want to access the Windows microphone settings and you are on Windows 10, open the start menu, type in "manage audio", click on "Manage audio devices" and your mic should be in the "recording" tab.
Then just select your mic and check the properties.
Sup
or use "Sound"
Yeah sometimes the search results vary.
Sound is diffrent menu in control panel :p
Oh, I see.
There dual settings in windows ever since Win8 due to ARM version
which dont have access to control panel
Oh so that's the reason why the settings are not all in the control panels anymore 😮
If you are having trouble with sound on Win 10, I was troubleshooting and eventually fixed it via privacy settings
for some reason some windows update reset privacy settings and apps did not have access to the mic
Does anyone know if the game renders audio differently? Because we've got some issues with 3 HyperX headsets (different models) and their mics all sound like there's a layer of noise on top of the voice.
We've tested them in other games too and this seems to be a problem with VRC only as it sounds perfectly fine in other games and during voice recording.
my friends list stopped updating a few days ago now i need to restart everytime i want to see who is on .
probably part of the server issues
wth is causing this lag spikes
when i load in with vr it's fine
but the instant i'm in a room it dies and falls to 20 frames
anything from unoptimized maps to unoptimized avatars to the IK
which is bs because i normally get between 45-60 frames
and it's not my avatar causing it, i've been in multiple rooms with it and people have little to no issues
there's other avatars besides yours
and while that's not a good analyzation of an optimized avatar, I'll just assume you're not part of the issue
but the lag persists even when i'm by myself
it starts whenever i bring up the steam menu
could be your specs also, but the steamvr menu is known to cause issues for some reason
and when i go to desktop display in steam vr the frames suddenly restore themself only for it to die again when i go off of it
in terms of optimization, the only reasons why it's poor is dynamic bone colliders and the collider checks
yeah, those are the biggest hits to performance
i also have distant disable on
either way I'm pinning the issue onto steam vr, since the lag started occuring due to me opening the steam vr menus
duh
what's worse tho, it persists even after restarting vr oof
b e g o n e t h r i s t y m a n

if you seek a date, play in vrchat, don't come to the discord and treat it like an rp server :V
ok im arabic man ok
i want you heare trap music in arabia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysO_OnMkk9A

how about no chief
It doesn't really happen to me unless i've been in steamvr for a long time and even then they eventually come back
but not using it is probably the only real fix
Chick ahhhh chick ahhhhh!
woof

Having issues with my ankles going through the floor on a model and my origin is set right -_-
@atomic tusk go to the menu in ubity to configure your rig and raise it in the y direction. Fixes it for me every time you just need to find the right values
just some furry, I think?
Pretty rad streamer who also makes youtube videos
Not as awful as some others either, I like him
dang I thought I had #avatars-2-general selected
Ah..
i picked the wrong thing in unity and instead of saving my project i just accidentally made a unity game
the game is very simple it consists of a image of my avatar t-posing. there is no interaction and you cannot move the camera
it is an open-ended game, there is no ending
Send it to IGN. They will probably rate it 10/10 and give it the Game of the Year award. 😆
I still hate VRSDK update
now you have to make it a 30 second game
we need recent players, im tired of these dumbass crashers making me lose really good conversations
Plenty of newbies joined lately. Visitors everywhere.
yay more people
Today I was unable to say a single word due to social anxiety. 😑
vrchat exploding for anyone else
Well I got a forced disconnection about an hour ago.
Every time I hear a girl in VRChat I am forced to have to friend her
Meanwhile she's the opposite and is reluctant to add anyone.
Lol, I was jk. But I noticed how anything that remotely sounds feminine instantly gets surrounded on this game
Gaming in a nutshell 😅
"A REAL GAMER GRILL QUICK LOVE ME LOVE I NEED ATTENTION" 😂
Does anyone know the rough ballpark figures/requirements to become known user? I'm at almost 400h , at least a dozen+ avs , and a world uploaded
No exact requirements are known I think.
I know more friends helps
Idk I'm a purple guy and I have 900+ friends, made 4 maps, and uploaded a few avatars, with 600-800hrs
In general: Don't worry too much about ranks. Enjoy your time.
Hey now, we all started somewhere. 
The True Purple.
Those people might not be worth your time I guess.
I block all avatars except trusted people
i've been purple since they introduced the trust system :v so i dunno lmao
You have to boast that you were Veteran before they removed it.
i have spent 1283 hours on vrchat lmao
I'm veteran
Some people might not want to be friend with someone for many reasons. Can't blame them for being selective.
They don't want to be my friend ? It's their loss. 🤷
and while i receive a fair amount of friend requests because of my choice in avatar, i accept none of them because i have trust issues :v
Add only people that you really want to add pretty much.
Or some people are the opposite: Add everyone.
I also never send people friend requests unless i really want to add them
because tbh who the heck wants to befriend a thicc toriel lmao
that's the spirit
o o f
That's a big old 
I'm mute more often then not so I just don't go on. Can't do anything as a mute desktop
yeahhh
Ah well could be worse
Some avatars have quite a juicy sound bank of effects. I've seen some desktop mute users use avatar sounds really tastefully and effectively
Such as your typical wan wan and awoo and nyan at the right times
I honestly don't know where to find them but an avatar I shared off a friend had an inventory system with access to 5-10 sound effects
not even sure if this game is worth playing anymore with about almost always the infinite looping login shit and my wifi isn't bad either. I want to get on and talk to friends but I've resulted to just talk to them on discord anymore this game has turned to shit and I'm disappointed. This game got me into 3d modeling, I'll still be 3d model but not for vrc's sake. Tired of this shit
It's been a month and 2 weeks since I've even touched the damn game tried to get back on today only to see the same damn issue with infinite loop login. This game isn't even worth my time anymore you guys started off good and resulted to me getting angry with this and uninstalling this game. Not a game worth playing anymore i havent used my vive trackers in awhile so i was also looking forward to using those today as well but nope still infinite loop login after so long.
have you tried just re-logging in?
Anyone on the west coast got some sudden bad lag a minute ago?
I can't even log in.
I got that infinite looping log-in this morning. I fixed it by changing my password.
PSA: IF YOU SEE NATESTER_ IN A LOBBY, BLOCK HIM
real witch hunt hours
what happen?
Had a crash avatar that crashed my two 1080s
oh god
It's not recovering either
have any images or proof?
no clue where to report him
there is the vrchat website and email support
That's amazing how 30 minutes of good wholesome footage is gone, I hit ALT F9 to stop recording before it completely froze though. Yikes
Reported them.
@short ingot reboot your computer (full power cycle) , copy your output log to send #moderation-reports and then join another room to avoid the guy.
Anybody know how to recover video files that are semi-corrupted? Audio and visuals are there
Should only take 5 minutes to get up and running again. Don't waste your time on this discord because mods don't check here. It only served to glorify the troublemakers when you complain loudly
Ah is it mp4
Yep
What parts are missing
Encoding parts I think. I know it has 550 MB but the recording didnt properly end and didn't have time to round up
Hello. Is there a way to donate to the VRchat team
no
Ok thank you
im sure there's a way actually
@short ingot you can give this a try: https://github.com/SuslikV/untrunc-w/releases
Feel free to donate to my gettingavrcapablepc fund instead
That sucks. I love this game and want to support it. Maybe in the future!
I'm sure there will be ways further down the line
@ashen quail you can buy official vrchat merch (t shirts and mugs) at their threadless store: https://vrchat.threadless.com
They will get some cut from that.
i was gonna buy one but i'd hate to have it on and actually meet someone lol
Lovely. That's perfect, thank you. @umbral oracle
Hi
@rigid crescent imagine meeting someone who also has it on
sprint the opposite direction
But it looks like I can get a VRChat pillow so I can cry myself to sleep on VRC literally
I like it
Yeah that should have been a thing
nikkei bodypillow? idk
Just accept who or what you are and embrace it
Omg a nikkei bodypillow? Who would be able to resist that hotness
Cuddly nikkei doggo wearing that blue sweater
😱
go at it
Can I buy a VRC doggo @stone current ?
@granite snow I appreciate the advice it worked for me too thank you very much
@half sequoia Np, glad it worked for you 🙂
For the alliance is still the best doggo
hifriendscansomeonehelpmeplease
Justaskquestionandmaybewecanhelpyou
Bet ok so I dont know how to switch my mic to work for vrchat
Go to mic settings in Windows and set default mic to the mic you want to use
And restart vrchat
Ohh I think I got it-
:+1:
Yesss it works now tysm
Why is VRChat so slow today? its like disconnecting and avatars arent loading in
Does anyone have the issue that you can't favorite any friends ?
And can it be fixed or not ?
Maybe the same issue as favorite avatars. Could it be just delayed by several hours? Or your list became completely empty?
Now rooms wont even load... wtf is this
It's empty
I tried to add some friends as favorite but not working at all
I tried to reinstall the game but nothing that i can do to solve this
server issues
odds are if you've got a problem that isn't crash or microphone related, it's server issues these days lol
'cause I know some people have like no issue with that
May I ask why there are so many server issues with VRChat?
my guess is the patch rollback when the IK changes ate the network but i've really got no clue
I'm here to complain
grrr grumble grumble
there's really next to nothing you can do aside from waiting it out.
Mic you stood me up again. I planned a surprise date without telling you and you never showed up
Yeah, r.i.p
I really need to get back into the VRChat werewolf hosting game
In the public instances?
VRChat need some fixes again
Like why did they remove the feature to change mic Ingame ?
Yeah, its how my rise and fall started. Hosting regularly in public games
Its a Unity related issue, they're waiting for a fix from their side if I recall correctly.
Shouldn't have updated unity
Will the feature to change mic Ingame be added again then?
That seems to be indicated in the 2017 upgrade patch notes:
You cannot change your microphone device from within VRChat. Workaround: Set your Default Recording and Communication Device in Windows before launching VRChat. If you wish to change your microphone while VRChat is still running, you have to disable the "old" microphone device that you're swapping from. This will be addressed in a future patch (this is a Unity bug)
GREAT, again the UNITY F@#%s up again. Guess VRChat really wanted to screw over avatar creators. I finally got everything working, Dynamic bone, shaders, animations, and props. But when I tested a few things and uploaded model I thought I can get back to fulfilling my commisions, but NOPE Reload Unity, no changes, nothing added. Dynamic bones is missing again, and I get a "Clear Cache and player prefabs" again. No errors, and reloading does nothing. not even resetting my PC.
I'm not the only one either, several of my friends are also having the same issue with uploading avatars with no way of fixing this. One guy even uninstalled Unity, and deleted SDK but still never fixed the problem
!online
There are 7307 users in VRChat currently
Fairly sure that was indeed a planned add-on for the new unity version by the vrc devs as you claim.
Totally not an bug or anything close to that or even user faults. (Outdated sdk, wrong unity version, bad assets imported from the non official shop)
Is that true? 
@queen mango I'm always wrong so no
You said you had something working then you added a bunch of packages, shaders etc. my guess is one of them is causing your issue. I'm skeptical there were actualyno errors. It's possible they got cleared in play mode. But I would suggest making a new project with just the basics, import vrchat sdk, make a scene with a cube and avatar descriptor and upload that. Then try a simple humanoid model with no crazy shaders and animations and no dynamic bones. Then upload that
@umbral oracle it's known that importing outdated assets from not the unity store (aka not bought one) can cause problems
And if uou do things one by one you might be able to figure out which asset is at fault. I would turn off clear on play in console to increase the chance that the error shows up
It's why db and ECT failed for so many peeps once we updated as they had the shady old one
Well that's why I suggest trying without dynamic bone.
Tried that, and with only 2 shaders but I still get the error,
Did you try With no shaders (just standard)
And are you 100% sure with cherry on top you are on the 2017.4.15f1 unity
I was able to upload the avatar with Everything I had, but when I returned to Unity I got the same error I've been having for a week
Maybe say the error...
Ok so you think something broke when you close and opened unity. He said he claims there was no error, just missing menu items in vrchat sdk as if it did not load
Which shouldn't be
What irritates me the most is the fact that this update pretty much ruins everything I saved, and had because everything was perfectly fine until I was forced to update the Unity, and it has only been problems after problems.
Well they can also not use a lts version and stop developing the game pretty much
Hard to "Just adapt" when you lose soo many rare shaders, animations, props, and other mats you deleted that are still saved in the Unity.
Everyone who followed the import guide to the letter had no problems so far I heard ...
At least the thousands who did it when the version changed didnt
Probably people who have simple things on their Unity and not as much as I or other friends have
Uuuu no
It worked for full avatar world's beside some bugs but those where well documented before peeps ran into them
Are you talking about avatars uploaded before the update?
Yes
But also the complex world's themself
Where are the VRchat servers located?
For me, a single shader broke, that's all. Your textures will still work though, unity might change it by import settings and such, but the image itself is never messed with
I think it's the US. No wonder the servers are slow at times right?
Near LA/SF

anyone having trouble uploading avas?
Yeah, I tried getting on but it just keeps reloading the maps I try to join
Hmmm its been a year, is there like a way to find out the date you befriended some people?
Or do i have to contact customer support?
No, I don't think you can search up the date you befriended him/her
Another thing, why would you want to find out the date of befriendment?

Seems like the logout/disconnect exploit is back
Every time I block a guy who clearly looks like a crasher I magically disconnect
that's been a thing for a long time
Yeah but I've been seeing it more often the past few days
They can also still hear/see you when you have them blocked
A while back I blocked one then lightly insulted them, and I got instantly disconnected
Quick question. Do post processing volumes work in VRChat?
Yes, in worlds
Thanks
Also about the blocking issue, someone told me there is a shader that can do that.
yup, but the devs decided that changing the unity to 2017 and pandering to streamers instead of improving the games security
But.. how would that be possible?
This game trusts the client too much
and yes, logout clients can see through blocks and hear you
so to be save yourself from becoming a terget is to jsut block their avatar and not call them out
Yea..
It would also seem that these clients bypass the safety/security system as well
It's on their client
it's not the client that bypasses security, but there are some things in unity that can bypass the safety system and give you screen shake
The lengths people will go through to satisfy their insipid lives..
Morbidly facsinating, is it not?
supposedly it's not hard, but the "trick" afaik is only known by a couple people
while I'm here wondering why my sdk isn't letting me upload -.-
Is there any error or something buddy?
nope, just not showing the upload window
so you click VRChat Sdk show build control panel build&publish and nothing is happening?
shows full drop down, all windows except upload, might have bugged off the screen..
Anyone ever run into the issue where if you’re in a vrc world long enough your mic stops working?
Reloading the world fixed the issue ezpz but after having been in a world for a good 12 hours or so my mic as well as the person with me’s mic just cut out all the sudden
Thought it might be something to look into
Yee
the performance on my dads laptop
its much better than the one on my shit laptop
ive got an oculus but i cant hear no one or speak in games does anyone know why?
Make sure to have the Oculus as your default sound output on windows first.
ok
