Yeah no, just had a discussion with a friend last night how karma splits communities.

rigid crescent
#

even without split communities, it's easy to abuse

#

hell even invisibly its easy to abuse

vocal shard
#

perhaps make it a toggle in the world so that people can choose to reduce some drama

rigid crescent
#

How do you prevent abuse?

vocal shard
#

anything can be abused. more options can give people a way to mitigate things.

rigid crescent
#

Anything can be abused, but you're suggesting a system with no way to mitigate abuse

umbral reef
#

thats exactly the thing though

vocal shard
#

I'm lazy and tend to not reinvent things. I would look for what works in forums, chat servers, etc.

rigid crescent
#

someone doesn't like you? kick. trolls? kick

umbral reef
#

You can give them a option where abuse does not harm users, social status and ect.
And one where you can harm important things for a social game...

rigid crescent
#

forums and chat servers aren't quite the same either

vocal shard
#

today they are not the same because you dont have operators / admins in the lobbies with the concept of ownership

dark wadi
#

i know it's utterly pointless but i still like to pretend people will someday just wake up and be decent to each other

opaque hawk
#

It’s a idea as terrible as invading Russia in the winter

dark wadi
#

crashers and toxiics prob just in pain or buried pain inside i think

rigid crescent
#

The issue with any type of restrictive karma system in the game is that it's just so, so easy to abuse. I don't like you? I wanna troll? Mistakes? Kick, kick kick.

opaque hawk
#

It guarantees people with low karma stay low

vocal shard
#

there will always be toxic people. the system has to be designed to self govern unless you introduce the concept of ownership of a lobby.

#

moderators dont really scale. at least, they wont if vrchat gets really popular (in the millions of users)

umbral reef
#

We can just mimic china- Im sure there IRL system would work neat ingame

rigid crescent
#

"Anything can be abused" isnt an excuse to make an easily abused system...

vocal shard
#

I will defer judgement of that idea to the developers

coarse anchor
#

VRChat crashed so badly that my Screen wen from posting to no dignal nonstip whit a CPau that is whit the suggested specs

#

eck even aboce it in RAm and GPU department

rigid crescent
#

you'd probably think the system is a good idea til some peopel troll kick you and you cant join any lobbies lol

#

room owners can kick as they see fit, that's self moderation.

#

people can votekick, that's self moderation

#

mute, blocks, reports, all forms of self moderation. we have plenty of tools for that, it's more active higher up moderation that we need

dark wadi
#

@coarse anchor not exactly sure this will fix your issue but i was getting lots of hard crashes only in vrc bc of too low cpu voltage. Tweaked up slightly in bios and system been very stable since even when vrc app locks up

umbral reef
#

Im amazed you understood what he said

dark wadi
#

lol i think i did 🤔

alpine crater
#

vive was meant to be delivered today, turns out it's UPS (in the UK) delivering

#

waited for 3 hours before deciding to check my laptop again, on refreshing the page it had changed delivery days

#

now I can see why people hate them

timid kiln
#

sounds like typical UPS

alpine crater
#

why they chose that company to deliver I'll never know

#

I ordered from the same place a few times and they always picked Royal Mail which are far better by comparison, though they have their own problems

opaque hawk
#

I only have issues with ups with non business deliveries

alpine crater
#

thankfully it's pretty much only royal mail for non-business here

coarse anchor
#

But why would VRChat be the only VRGame or the only APP that would have such a specific problem?

umbral reef
#

Its in beta still
It has user made content what can cause crashes but your crash is on your side. You probally have outdated drivers, bios or ect.
It doesnt have an large studio to build an offline game. What is known to be easier to optimize and make 'perfect'

dark wadi
#

idk but hard freezes happened to me 3-4 times a night in vrc with vive until i fixed cpu volts. not one hard freeze since and i play hours dancing in packed fbt clubs

umbral reef
#

Software freezes are a known thing with crashers and we have the tools to prevent it

umbral oracle
#

How much RAM

umbral reef
#

Hard crashes arent and are part of a deeper problem

umbral oracle
#

Unless you are in the box I wouldn't go straight to attributing things to crashers out of your control

dark wadi
#

For me 64 which is why i think it was more a system voltage issue not crashers. But def a huge diff before and after voltage fix in my case

#

actually read about that volts suggestion in a vrc forum somplace so it wasnt only me but maybe just our specific hardware. so many variables!

vocal shard
#

reeeeee

#

No

Des...Pa...Cito!! Gonna go to taco bell and eat burritos,

Despacito!

#

Anyways, what's up everyone?

vocal shard
#

nm about to get drunk and harass gamer girls

zinc solar
#

Who doesn't harass gamer girls on VRChat?

vocal shard
#

lmao

zinc solar
#

Except other girls, because other girls hate other girls stealing their attention

vocal shard
#

^^

#

I'm jk i'm a woman respector

zinc solar
#

Same, I treat everyone equally

#

But most guys goal on this game is to hunt down every girl with VR, and try to bust a VRNut so it's not gay with a mute/trap, or lonely with dolls

#

Everyday I ignore you, even when you DM me but it's like the only thing you say is "Edge Edge Edge Edge" you even DM me asking me about "edge"
I can say hi, and what's up and you just come in saying "edge"

vocal shard

zinc solar
#

No insulting peeps, I'm just stressed right now, and may apologies later. But atm I'm pretty much in a do-not-bother mood.

vocal shard
#

... Sorry 'bout that.

#

Is anyone here in a roleplay group?

#

...

urban cave
#

I just wanted to import a custom avatar and wtf I know Unity now???

prisma plover
#

@urban cave Not sure I understand the question. What kind of issue are you encountering ?

main leaf
#

anyone know where to find this avatar: Dragon Handle | Nanatsu no Taizai

#

the guy with yellow hair that holds the dragon handle ^ @ if u know

main leaf
#

also called Meliodas

steep turret
#

pretty sure the models arent public yet. talked to the guy once that ripped em all from the game, like, ages ago. dunno if he made a world or whatever.

royal vigil
#

Hi

#

once again

main leaf
#

awh, alright i really want that avatar >.<

steep turret
#

i mean, you could always look up how to rip em yourself. thats what i do when i want some models real bad, lol.

pure hemlock
#

Is there still a way to request a mod in game? Theres a dude going to every single great pug world and force disconnecting everyone.

umbral oracle
#

Please get a copy of your output log and send as in #moderation-reports . Then find another world or world instance and move on. Nothing can be done beyond that but you have a choice to visit a different plane in the vrchat metaverse and you might get some different experiences in the process. See it as an opportunity to explore, not a hindrance

pure hemlock
#

I mean it's nice to think positive but this shit is happening so much lately that it's hard to look at it that way

torn nebula
#

Yeah unfortunately the only real long term solution here is an overhaul of their networking stack really

#

Which is not an easy task at all

queen mango
#

Will it be expensive too?

dense ingot
#

Having issues loading anything. Anything going on right now with vrchat?

fast narwhal
#

Raid maybe?

rigid crescent
#

Probably just you, depending on the issue

#

i loaded into a few worlds fine just now

@brave oasis same..

#

Did they ask you to talk?

#

Or if you don't talk they'll kick you?

#

Damn..

twin jacinth
#

Don't give them any attention, just ignore them and report them without saying it to anyone best way to go about it

vocal shard
#

Already searched about this.. And this people are actually self proclaimed "hackers"

cold talon

Script kiddies thinking they are hackers, classic ChariotShrug

Alright so ... I entered this world called "Open Mic" or something..

#

Bcause I don't have a mic, people would think I'm a trap, catfish or something like that..

mighty galleon
#

<.<

vocal shard
#

Then this kid with that MMD male avatar approached me, "Hey Avy, can you talk?"

#

"If you don't talk I'll disconnect you."

#

Thought it was impossible and was only a joke. Then sht happened.

velvet quarry
#

Be sure to report people who act that way.

vocal shard
#

Too late ... Especially when they have numbers on their usernames ... Which makes it harder to remember

velvet quarry
#

It should be possible to find their name in your output log with a bit of searching.

kindred sand
#

low wave
#

anyone having issues loading in?

#

I just walked away to get some water, came back to my headset and the game was black, could still hear the world ambient audio, but no voices. Closed the game, restarted. Logged in, and loaded to my home world, after the load screen finished, the game tried to load me in, then the screen went black again and I got the vrchat "duhn" noise you get when your disconnected. could still hear the world ambient audio

astral cliff
#

Anyone have a link to where it explains how to merge vrc and steam accounts?

astral portal
#

I don't have the link but I'm pretty sure if your using your steam account in game open your menu and on the bottom right hand corner it should give u an option to merge your account unless they changed it never used it myself only shows up for steam account users.

mighty galleon
#

its in the settings in game

worthy tapir
#

Are you on desktop or VR mode?

fickle berry
#

vrmode

#

won't let me change settings in game

worthy tapir
#

If you change your mic, you have to exit VR chat and reload

#

The setting doesn't change in game when you change mics, so a full close and re-open is required

umbral reef

mighty galleon
#

i was a trusted till i deleted 90% of friendlist xD

#

you can

queen mango
#

Yes, that's possible

mighty galleon
#

yeah its weird

#

but i think its only for trusted people

kindred sand
#

how i check what i am

mighty galleon
#

yeah

dawn pecan
#

in general, some of your "score" is made op up your friends list

#

So if you delete trusted users, the game will view you as less trusted by others, since it can't know if you removed them or if they removed you

mighty galleon
#

yeah, anyways im find with being a known user, i just hate the ugly orange color they chose

kindred sand
#

yaaaaaay im a user

queen mango
#

Peachy orange... not the best one, but it's what we have for now

dawn pecan
#

Get the next rank then 😛

queen mango
#

Beats being a Green, though

dawn pecan
#

It's fairly easy

mighty galleon
#

i was a trusted caffeine xD

kindred sand
#

i was blue fer such long time

queen mango
#

Weird.. the bigger the rank, the bigger the hit

#

shrug

mighty galleon

Is there any way for me to have a soundboard visible over or inside VRChat as I play it?

mighty galleon
#

not that i know of

safe prism
#

OVRdrop

mighty galleon
#

you can put a sounboard on ovrdrop?

safe prism
#

you can put anything on ovrdrop

safe yacht
#

I really should’ve gotten that one...

mighty galleon
#

i thought soundboard was something that you had to physically touch

#

btw, oh hi okano

safe yacht
#

You probably still have to click it but you have it infront of you without having to tab out

#

While in vr.

safe prism
#

ovrdrop is the best solution available for that atm

#

unless you can write some code~

mighty galleon
#

i was talking about a soundboard that you have butons set to, like an actual board

safe prism
#

have you considered one can be virtual

mighty galleon
#

nope

#

i didn't know it was a thing

safe prism
#

click buttons and things happen

#

anything real can be simulated~

mighty galleon
#

im just terrible at finding out anything on the internet so im way behind on this stuf

safe prism
#

up your google skills my dude

mighty galleon
#

my bing skills is to low

#

i put all my points into other skills

safe yacht
#

Well I can’t get voicemeeter to run with VRChat without lagging the game into oblivion, so that kills that idea.

Still user after 200 hours and 1 year old account

Maybe some people blocked you or you're not doing much in the game

mighty galleon
#

oh hi petri

quaint dawn
#

Make friends, visit worlds, be social, make content

inner cape
sleek bone
#

Fricken sucks

inner cape
#

I do all that

floral aspen
#

time plays a small part. It's also based on how many friends you have as well as how many avatars/worlds you've uploaded among other things

mighty galleon
#

i was a trusted at one point

sleek bone
#

Wait, you got deranked? @mighty galleon

mighty galleon
#

yep

floral aspen
#

yes it is possible to move down a rank

quaint dawn
#

If people block you, you lose trust points

mighty galleon
#

i got deranked when i deleted 90% of my friendlist

floral aspen
#

you trust score can actively change which determines which rank you are

sleek bone
#

Time to get friends

mighty galleon
#

nah

#

i deleted them all b/c they never come to me or talk to me

quaint dawn
#

I heard you start again as visitor if you get banned. Not sure if it's true though

sleek bone
#

no

inner cape
#

that's not true

sleek bone
#

There is a lower rank

floral aspen
#

yup

sleek bone

O what does that look like

sleek bone
#

floral aspen
#

I've never seen anyone with that rank though

sleek bone
#

I think

safe prism
#

same

inner cape
#

they are muted and their avatar is blocked for everyone by default

#

Seen a couple of them

sleek bone
#

Your avatar will not be seen even if the security is off. I think

quaint dawn
#

They're probably blocked by default for others :^)

mighty galleon
#

petri, when we going to high five

inner cape
#

you'd have to show their avatar and unmute by yourself if you wanna see them

floral aspen
#

I'm not sure I'd wanna take that chance lol

inner cape
#

otherwise they walk as gray muted avatars

quaint dawn
#

Idr you I have like 6 million friends on my friendlist

mighty galleon
#

dont worry

floral aspen
#

I did that once with a regular user and my ears were instantly raped

inner cape
#

I think they are also only limited to public avatars but I'm not sure

mighty galleon
#

I'm just a random person, idk you either xD

there's also an icon for nuisance

If you dont mind me asking how do i make it so i can use the built in mic in vrchat on oculus rift? I know theres a key on the keyboard but how do i do it with the rift?

umbral reef
#

Gotta set the default microphone of your pc (in windows settings) to that microphone for it to work ingame.

vocal shard
#

Okey ill do that right now cheers And how do i like unmute myself in vrchat?

inner cape
#

in vr or desktop?

vocal shard
#

Vr

inner cape
#

either way a button on the left bottom corner of quick menu

velvet quarry
#

Assuming you have oculus touch controllers, opening up your quick menu and clicking the mute microphone button at the bottom left of it should do it.

median basalt
#

Set your default microphone to the Oculus one before starting the game

#

Then open your menu with the B or Y buttons on your left or right controller

#

Then click the mic icon in the bottom left

#

Turn up your mic volume in the VRC settings too

vocal shard
#

Thanks ^^

median basalt
#

You have to set your mic in Windows due to a still unfixed bug in the game

shut star
#

^^

#

Is that wat i do with my voice disguiser

The founder of air conditioning died recently, thousands of fans attended his funeral.

nimble linden
#

They never found his killer. So it was a cold Case.

#

These jokes really Blow

zinc solar
#

Could say his funeral had a blow out in attendance

languid beacon
#

I don’t get it. These jokes are breezing over my head

zinc solar
#

You we may need to cool down

rough flax

These jokes are so cool

woven steppe
#

So I just had a thought.

People make a nice avatar... or put together a nice avatar in blender, with attention to detail and cool things... they then port it into unity, do all whatever custom animations in there to add more spice to the avatar...

Then they just put a shader on it that hides everything, make things blend in...

languid beacon
#

I don’t follow. “Shader that hides everything”

woven steppe
#

Basically... Why is it that so many avatars are flat lit?

umbral reef
#

Easy to make it look good

#

And hides flaws well 👌

#

Also anime

sullen escarp
#

wish people would test world using shaders other than flat lit toon

#

getting real sick of worlds that have literally like no lights

covert linden
#

Im all for that sweeeet standard shader ;)

woven steppe
#

I'd probably not be as perturbed by flat lit if they actually had shadows... but that would require worlds to actually have realtime lighting...

sullen escarp
#

standard shader is nice if you actually set it up properly tbh

covert linden
#

I used it once on an anime avatar by accident ans it was really funny because I thouught I broke Flatlittoon

rough pulsar
#

I'm putting together a light test unit that has a few shaders on it along with 'correct' references for them.
So basically if the set of objects look fucked, so is your lighting.

sullen escarp
#

that would probably help people out a lot

woven steppe
#

People just end up with characters with no depth... OMEGALUL

rough pulsar
#

Especially anyone who currently uses a NPR shader to test their light setup 😠

sullen escarp
#

NPR?

rough pulsar
#

Non-PhotoRealistic, general term for toon shaders and some others that defy the regular laws of physics

when i see an 11 year old, what do?

languid beacon
#

FYI there is currently a bug where if you place a friend in a group on vrc they will simply vanish and not show online or offline - just gone as if not friends

#

You can see their avatar and they will have a yellow tag but show as not even a friend, not even offline

vocal shard
#

if they're appearing offline, can you still join them off of the social tab?

languid beacon
#

They don’t appear offline. They are as if they are not even friends

#

Except when you finally do see them they are yellow tag

#

They simply don’t show on any of your menus at all

vocal shard
#

Yo what the hell... all my favorites just disappeared.. all my favorite avatars, worlds, etc..

languid beacon
#

Yeah that’s the same situation

#

Favorited friends vanish too

vocal shard
#

Is there any reason for this?

languid beacon
#

Computers do exactly as coded

Even if not intended

floral aspen

mine were disappearing every so often the other night. I had to wait for a little bit and they eventually showed back up

velvet quarry
#

Favorites have been a bit unstable the last month or so, they should come back later.

languid beacon
#

As far as flat shaders go, I think standard makes most of my models look really bad. Like. They suddenly are very obviously 3D models. Kills immersion for me.

inner cape
#

ron knew its unstable but he wanted more

#

so we got more

vocal shard
#

who uses shaders nowadays?

#

oh right. gangs

languid beacon
#

Shaders, not even once.

#

Know the facts.

umbral oracle
#

Nope, we all use fixed pipeline rendering

My models tend to need custom PBR shaders to properly render, gotta have that subsurface.

Making worlds is hard. <_>
Not the process, but having the assets you want.

twin jacinth
#

make your own assets
ez fix

languid beacon
#

Yeah. Surreal places are a bit easier since they don’t need to make sense or look realistic with lots of real objects

#

Photorealistic / immersive places are pretty much impossible without being a seasoned 3D modeler or using a ton of licensed content

ruby burrow
#

Trying to make an African landscape with a little house/homestead in the centre. Trying to find African plant life and props to fill it with has proven far harder than expected.

#

Even if willing to pay, the selection of assets is surprisingly poor.

languid beacon
#

I’d think plant life would be the easiest stuff to find on the asset store

vocal shard
#

try outsource from just the assets store, turbosquid, yeggi, etc

ruby burrow
#

I can pay 5 euros for a single really crappy tree with no LoD. Or pay 35 euro to get a slightly fancier one. As for other types of trees, bushes, grasses etc. Nothing.

#

this is a very important question! Where does VRchat get money to keep running ?

ruby burrow
#

Currently, investors such as Vive, and a small amount from the VR-Chat merch store.

languid beacon
#

HTC funded them an amount of money because the game pushes headsets like crazy. Other than that no one knows. They aren’t apparently hurting for money.

vocal shard
#

Hmm.. OK

languid beacon
#

I do wonder what the long term plan is though. After paying so much for a headset, VRChat being free is a nice break.

ruby burrow
#

Someone posted a page a while back that showed that HTC isn't their only contributor, but no idea who the others actually are.

languid beacon
#

I mean I’d hope Oculus would be one

ruby burrow
#

Hopefully. Though slightly less likely since their strategy is mainly making their money from the Oculus store rather than off the headsets themselves.

languid beacon
#

VRChat being on Oculus Store is gonna push people to Oculus Store at the very least

#

But really? They make more sales from their web store than hardware sales? I find that a little hard to believe

ruby burrow
#

They've been putting their publicly declared funding mainly into exclusive games, far as I can tell.

languid beacon
#

As a Rift owner I have only bought steam games

#

I don’t even know which games are “oculus exclusive” because unlike Nintendo, Oculus never labels them as such

#

Nintendo used to have that “Only For” sticker which really helped :p

ruby burrow
#

I don't actually know either. Have stuck to steam whenever browsing, and nothing has been recommended to me that I can't get yet.

floral aspen
#

that's how most hardware manufacturers make their money. Sell the console or in this case hmd at a loss and recoup the money through software sales

vocal shard
#

Gets Mario for PC

languid beacon
#

Sucks for oculus then. I avoid having multiple digital distributor software on my pc

vocal shard
#

Same dude.

ruby burrow
#

Valve's gameplan has simply been to see as many headsets enter the market as possible, since they win either way via selling games. Ideally they obviously want their partners hardware to do well, since they have more influence on that and it will direct people to Steam better.

neon flume
#

Yeah the only other place I buy games is GOG because of their no drm policy.

vocal shard
#

I refuse to get Origin, Bethesda, Battle.net and all that.

ruby burrow
#

HTC's gameplan is simply to make money of the hardware itself by attempting to be the most desirable, alongside whatever deal they have with Valve, but more recently has also been shifting to try and improve it's "Vive Port" service.

languid beacon
#

If VR can only go mainstream by being a console like Oculus Quest wants to be, I’m fine with that. I’d rather have VR at all.

ruby burrow
#

And Oculus has been pushing to try and become the largest market share by just getting as many people using their headsets, and then using it as a platform.

#

Personally I really don't want the "console" route, whether it helps things go mainstream or not.

#

Same as I don't own four different monitors to play my PC games, I'm not going to buy four different headsets just for exclusives or platform benefits.

#

I just want to be able to use whatever headset is best for my needs, to play titles available for all.

#

I wonder how the WMR companies are doing.

#

They're kind of treated like a single side option, except with even tighter competition.

opaque hawk
#

Probably fine, affordable vr with hands

umbral reef
#

Oculus is going market share with users
Vive is going buisness focused and high end

languid beacon
#

Yeah but if it’s just not feasible to sell headsets without recouping the cost from games, and people both reject hardware exclusives AND reject consoles, VR will just flop

lyric light
#

i... i have an odd question... before installing VRChat i had something like 100GB of free hard drive space... but now i have 68.3GB... where did all of the space go to? or i do know that it didn't go to VRChat, it still has 1.2~GB.

umbral reef
#

It is though when your vive and sell with nice margens instead of fairly limited ones like oculus...

#

Companies buy your stuff- Get stuck with your eco system and money

languid beacon
#

PC gaming floats on the success of the revenue generated from console gaming. It didn’t create it; and it can’t maintain it. It’s superior in every way; don’t get me wrong. But it’s just a perk from the real money makers: consoles.

ruby burrow
#

Oculus has the advantage of playing the long game. Facebook has absurdly deep pockets, and so far have made it clear they're happy to continue investing in it.

Vrchat will eat your cache @lyric light
If you have a 2nd or 3rd drive, you can create a symbolic link for VRC to save to there. It's much easier.

i have a single 1T

vocal shard
#

Just clear your cache then.

umbral reef
#

@ruby burrow Ow for sure its why they can get the market share by doing cheap with enough quallity

ruby burrow
#

I think as long as HTC/Valve hasn't been losing money, the two rivals should be able to just continue on until things establish themselves.

lyric light
#

and... where is it?

vocal shard
#

%AppData% in LocalLow. @lyric light

lyric light
#

oh... god....

#

now i see...

ruby burrow
#

The number of Steam users that have a VR headset installed doubled this year. Whilst the number of early adopters have been less than was hoped for, the growth of the market isn't actually bad at all.

#

Is just going to take a while before that snowball becomes visible.

lyric light
#

so i need to delete the "HTTPCache-WindowsPlayer"?

ruby burrow
#

No, that's something else.

#

Though, if it's also huge maybe figure out what it is? But unrelated to VR-Chat either way.

safe yacht
#

I was in game 5 minutes ago when my game started lagging like mad and shut itself down. I went over to my PC to see if there was an error, but there wasn't. Steam had shut itself off entirely. What's up with that?

Yeah @lyric light

ruby burrow

i thought so, or it's the only thing that has 20+GB in it... :/

Hey so I have a bit of a question. Lately I’ve been talking to people in vrchat and I’ve noticed a lot of discussion about Tupper

Lots of negative things

#

Just want to know if they are true that from a rumor I heard that he bans people whenever he wants or something like that.

#

Like he abuses his power

I am just waiting for Unity to allow VrChat to have the Easy Switch mic option back. (also, im sure he/she doesn't do that)

I love Vrchat screenshots the colors come out so flat, so it's easier to edit, and change characters color to anything

that i believe depends on the lighting of the world, and lots of worlds use baked lighting and that makes you look darker

right now im actually working on a screenshot in photoshop to correct the lighting and make it look better

That and a lot of worlds don't have the best lighting setup.

You can get very good lighting with baked, just have to know what you're doing.

yeah, most people don't pay attention to lighting in their worlds, and thats a shame since lighting can have a huge impact on how your world looks

it just broke the material for some reason

You can fix broke materials in unity as long as the uv map is intact

but i think its fixed so yes

umbral oracle

Oh if yoh have multiple meshes it will add extra materials on other meshes. I think that's a bug. You can delete them in blender or change the number in unity

umbral oracle

Unity can delete materials as long as they are at the bottom

there no bug i just have textures on the untextured mats

umbral oracle

Ah ok

supposed 2 be like that

Untextured mats cam cause trouble maybe. The old atlasing tools never did those well

i separated by light settings

Maybe you need to make a small 4x4 solid color texture for each first or do it yourself. Don't have good experience with this so maybe someone else has better techniques

it works btw for the atlasing diffuse colors

the unity shows new avatar creation instead of new world
anybode knows why plese?

alpine crater
#

also for anyone not with a headset yet, save yourself a headache if you have AMD graphics and disable the ReLive VR streaming thing

#

it created a virtual headset which messed with steamvr with no explanation for hours

blazing notch
#

anywone?

#

When was VRChat first publicly available? Not referring to steam version

blazing notch

#

What is the recommended unity build to use right now bc i am using 2017.4.18f1 ?

umbral reef
#

Its not a recommended build. You need the 2017.4.15f version

blazing notch
#

the unity shows new avatar creation instead of new world

urban bluff
#

is that the reason i cant upload models then : /

umbral reef
#

IT is

#

@blazing notch You have the same problem- Get the right unity version

urban bluff
#

oke thank you 😁

umbral reef
#

Or wait- Nvm misread it

#

You want to make a worl gosto?

#

Gotta import the world asset for VRC and not have avatars in it

blazing notch
#

world asset?

umbral reef
#

Just watch the world making tutorial VRchat made o use google on how to upload worlds

#

All tutorials should explain the steps right and what your missing

Need some quick help, when I click the little arrow to open up the tab for the shader setting sin unity, it does nothing... Just suddenly started happening. help

umbral oracle
#

Do you have any red errors in console? I might recommend closing unity and reopeninh

#

hey guys

#

anyone willing to help me set up voicemeeter banana and whatever else i need to play divine bloodlines through vrc

rigid crescent
#

What

queen mango
#

That's an unusual request

rigid crescent
#

People who play music through their mic illyaTriggered

vocal shard
#

Anyone know how to disable anyone from copying your avatar?
I seen somebody who is using an avatar, and it wont let me copy it, but he said he can enable it for me to copy it.
But the thing is, he isnt the author, so how?

queen mango
#

I've had that just now.. in Japan Shrine

ruby needle
#

you have a setting for it in the settings

#

and private avatars are also not copyable

vocal shard
#

eh. general really dead q-q

rigid crescent
#

What...

vocal shard
#

g'day peeps

rigid crescent
#

Ooookay

lyric light
#

what if you never make your avatar public?
is there a penalty or something?

rigid crescent
#

No? Why would there be...

#

You can have public and private avatars if you want

queen mango
#

No.. no penalty
By the way, well.. I had another interesting case just a few minutes ago.
There was that visitor who was just generally shouting every time he talks.

umbral oracle
#

Private avatars cannot be used by other people. Period

rigid crescent
#

Fat block for people screaming into their mics

umbral oracle
#

Public avatars worn by you will not be cloneable either if you turn off allow cloning

queen mango
#

I'm surprised he's not tagged as a nuisance yet

umbral oracle
#

He might be new. Some people will lower their mic volume if you tell them. They might not know

vocal shard
#

The only way to get a private avatar from another person is if they themselves give you the file outside of VRChat

lyric light
#

or i already have 3 avatars that are private. :/

rigid crescent
#

Ok? What's wrong with having 3 private avatars.

umbral oracle
#

I remember my first time I played vrchat I plugged some crappy iphone headphones into my vive because I didnt realize it had a builtin mic. Oof

queen mango
#

Oh my... I used my Samsung earphones back when I was just starting in VRChat.

#

I know that feeling.

#

Well, since then.. I replaced them with a headset.. mic coulda been better, but it ain't bad

lyric light
#

everyone here have a fine day. (or night)

queen mango

#

my friend is looking for a new pairs of headset, one with a built in mic. Any recommendation?

#

I recommended mine, but he's into headset compatible with software integration

keen flame
#

corsair void pro wireless

hollow umbra
#

does it have software support?

covert linden
#

get XG

keen flame
#

I dont really know

covert linden
#

Mine is close to this one

opaque hawk
#

Why does he need software support?

hollow umbra
#

idk, he's into rbg, but his razor is pretty shit according to him

hollow umbra
#

thanks

covert linden
#

I actually have that one I sent the wrong one, It works EXTREMELY well and the program is good too

hollow umbra
#

surround sound is pretty crazy in vr

#

it's like im actually there audiowise

covert linden
#

it has that and works REALLY well

#

to the extent where just audio alone for this surround audio test scared me

worthy tapir
#

I have a 22$ sades headset*. When I use the noise reduction setting on my mic it sounds pretty un-potatoy, if you're looking for a budget headset

warped dew
#

here's something i'm curious about

#

will vrchat impliment eye tracking for those who have it?

rigid crescent
#

someone's actually buying the pro+? lol

#

hope not, it's just another thing to add to lag

warped dew
#

why does full body tracking cause lag?

rigid crescent
#

IK

#

VR causes lag, FBT causes more lag

warped dew
#

w o t

rigid crescent
#

Inverse Kinematics

warped dew
#

t h a t ' s d u m b,

rigid crescent
#

I mean it's kind of how computers work. The IK could be better, but it's something that'll always have some sort of computation cost

warped dew
#

w h y d o e s a v r g a m e l a g w i t h v r

rigid crescent
#

Why does a video game made for PC lag on a PC?

#

Computations are required just like anything else.

vocal shard
#

How does one see quests in the VRChat Home world?

rigid crescent
#

They should be on the far left, near the portal on the right wall if you face the portal

vocal shard
#

I only see a buddy machine board

rigid crescent
#

Hm, weird. That's where my quests were.

vocal shard
#

Do they stay there when finished?

warped dew
#

but ye, i mean i'm considering getting a vive pro

#

because the dark space on the sides of the headset is ruining me immersion

rigid crescent
#

that's not there on the pro?

torn nebula
#

eh, eye tracking shouldn't cause much lag - vrc already has to drive the eyes around for the automatic fake eye movement stuff

#

might have a cost on the user who is running the eye tracking to interpret the sensor data of course

#

but that's their choice

rigid crescent
#

It's funny, the more money you have the more lag you generate

#

VR, FBT, Eyes, and Knuckles

torn nebula
#

how exactly would eyes cause more lag though? There's already bone deformation going on to move eyes around today, and they're not going to need full IK even with real eye tracking as there's only one joint to deal with

#

as I see it there's two main possibilities: 1) The current, fake eye tracking is driven on the PC of the person in the avatar, and sends the eye angles or target coordinates as part of the state update of the avatar. In this case there is no change to overhead on other users. 2) The current, fake eye tracking is computed independently on every viewer today. If so, there would be a slight increase in network overhead (order of 16 bytes per 33ms) to transmit target angles, but a reduction in CPU usage as the fake eye tracking doesn't need to run

worthy tapir
#

there are quests???

rigid crescent
#

they don't really do anything but yeah

#

also yeah, didn't consider fake tracking already being a per-user thing.

So very lovable

mighty galleon
#

oh no, its a darkone

vocal shard
#

VRChat community, is there a new update, where if you get crashed it "Disconnects" you? or is this person hacking vrc?

#

They would run up, every time I re-joined and yell, OH NO MY INTERNET. and I would crash. Happened literally 13 times, and my internet is not bad at all.

I'm joining, and staying in, all other worlds and different instances of the same world, without any issues.

torn nebula
#

!outputlog there are known issues with the networking stack where people can force you to log out using hacked clients. unfortunately. Send your output logs to moderation@vrchat.com when it happens

floral flaxBOT
#

You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat named output_log.txt

torn nebula
#

it's a bit of a game of whack-a-mole until vrchat devs can fix their networking stack though

vocal shard
#

I reported them for their racist (ni****) user name. It was written with different characters, though.

torn nebula
#

that might only get their name changed, possibly

vocal shard
#

Not basic text, and 2 caps "g"s

#

I see.

queen mango
#

What else did they do?

vocal shard
#

Well, I'll try to send a report

#

Mostly that. Over and over. Mainly trolling and taunting.

#

It sounded like an english 14 yo. Like a legit kid.

queen mango
#

Now that doesn't sound like a friendly face.
I think you can send a report over moderation@vrchat.com (mind if I do?)

#

I doubt that he's mature enough to play VRChat

#

Ah, I forgot.. you gotta compose, then send a Gmail to them..

dire palm
#

tosha

#

ops

queen mango
#

Oh?

vocal shard
#

I sent a message to the mods. Btw, the user's name is ṊḮႺႺḚṝ
I'm so sorry for having to post it, here. But it's for the purpose of warning others. vrcfrown

rigid crescent
#

yeah they'll probably eat a ban for it lol

queen mango
#

It's alright.. but try to just keep it between you and the mods.. chances are, he may be in this same Discord

rigid crescent
#

And? Lol

#

Not much they can do to stop a report

vocal shard
#

I suppose memory leaks won't be fixed sooner or later with the game?

rigid crescent
#

I mean what comes from them knowing?

#

....liiiiiiike? lol

#

So basically nothing, gotcha. They already DCed the person 13 times. Not much else they can do

#

I think 4 or 5

#

6-ish, one isn't all VRC

#

OK? PRetty uncommon if it's rarely reported/documented, not much to worry about

#

block animations and all they can do is log you out, assuming they're in the same room

#

ok then...

#

So it's uncommon and not much of an issue

#

and im sure after 13 times they know they'll be reported lol

queen mango
#

I doubt..

rigid crescent
#

yes

#

it has for a while now

#

.....yes?

queen mango
#

Umm.. no? I don't think it works like that, would it?

rigid crescent
#

kinda the point

#

it's a report, it sends a report to mods

queen mango
#

Umm.. no

rigid crescent
#

Not usually, no. It sends a report to them.

queen mango
#

Rather, the VRChat mods receive the reports, and if the case is severe, act on it.

rigid crescent
#

I'm guessing they look at the actual reports and see if something happened, i doubt it's automatic.

#

It asks you what they did

queen mango
#

There is... usually when you select a user

#

Oh.. do new user have the ability to report?

rough flax
#

Thattt's not frankieee

Is there any rules for accessing the vrchat: "output_log.txt" in appdata/LocalLow/VRChat/VRChat/ ?

#

Hello.
Could anyone help me with my problem using VRChat SDK in unity ??
If so please dm me thanks.

kindred sand
#

isnt private chat called pm

vocal shard
#

it's both I think

#

Because pm is private message and dm is dirrect message so it's the same

kindred sand
#

oooh then i learned an new thing today again giggles

lethal summit
#

guys!
why the maps from vrchat keeps dissappearing? are they removed?

#

i lost lots of fav maps in 1 week. whats going on?

umbral oracle
#

Could be server errors. could be maps which did not comply with world or avatar performance requirements. We can just hope they come back

#

For example Miko Paradise I thought got approved with the new performance rules but it is not public right now

vocal shard

Somebody @ me
