😄 pats head
yaaaaay, thank you. head pat is good 
What's up gamers 😄
heyo
Does anyone here knows someone called Syxed?

nah
:3
🦈
listen i know imma get removed once i type this but tbh i hope yall hear me out on what im trying to say Okay listen i want you to hear me out on this, i understand having a client is against the rules but i only used it for protection. So many people are crashing me and logging me out. My account name is TYGA147... and i got banned for using a client. I just got vr and my friend was going through something i didn't have the time to get her discord. I completely understand if you don't unban me but i would greatly appreciate it. I apologize i deleted the client and everything in it all the modules and everything. Ill even send you the modules so maybe you can find a way to get rid of them. Please i spent 500 dollars just for this game ive been playing it for 7k hours so obviously i love it. Just hear me out okay if you dont unban me i completely understand but please i wanna get back on vrchat i miss my friends. VRCHAT was my escape from my shitty laugh took all my suicide thoughts away and help me rehabilitate back to life and become a better person.
typing that here will do literally nothing. They don't address moderation issues like bans in discord. If you really want them to see that, send it in an e-mail.
How long has it been since you sent the e-mail?
the most recent was a few minutes ago the other ones was like a week and half ago
huh, guess you're out of luck then
Why did you have a client?
doesn't matter why. Modified clients are a bannable offense, no matter the reason
listen im completly calm but it kinda gets to me how i barely use it and all the other people that world log out dont get banned all my friends are still using it today and still havnt got banned abnd i had it to protect my self from the poeple that did log me out
if they haven't gotten banned then report them
vrchat isnt safe at all anymore you "devs" ban the people that are on the lower side of the clients but dont ban the poeple that have been doing for a while
thats a little hyperbolic
Unless having a client protects you from being logged out yourself, your excuse doesn't hold
i know so many people that have one and been repoted a bunch of times and still have yet to be banned
yeah thats what it was for
if one of you add me ill show you the module i used
the only module i used
Having the client actually patches the exploit? Interesting
yeah i have an anti log out i made it my self
Or maybe it's made to not log out other users of it. Either way VRChat should use that information to stop it
And if you didn't use the client for anything bad, how the VRChat find out and ban you?
yeah this is what im saying i got reported by a lot of people for saying that i have client i was stupid for doing that but as i said i only have an anti log out
People, who knows - does VRC support vulkan API?
i got banned for 4 months and i literally do nothing but protect my self
If what you're saying is actually true (it's a bit doubtful) you might actually have a good point.
That said, I doubt you will get unbanned. You will need to get a VPN if you want to log in again.
If you can code like you claim, that won't be a problem for you
It's 5:40am so I need to go now. Good luck
mhm i know but i shouldnt have to do that why would i lie i have no reason to you
okay nice talking to you
Well seya guys imma get off to i hope you guys see were im coming from and realize that im doing is right not wrong ill see yall later ive been hella down because vrchat was basically my life but its g if i dont get unbanned. Goodnight..
I mean they only don't ban the problem people because they don't get caught. You got caught, tha'ts all
Is it possible to move/adjust the fingers in vrchat w/ pc._. Or nah?
You can, but they're at your side so you won't see it
How?
Press Shift F1 through like F6 I think
Oh oki
You can activate actions on avatars using that
OnO
nice dad joke
@vocal shard You can ask for a ban appeal at the moderation email, make sure to include as much proof to support your case and it might go through
There a chat, or nah?
Nope, only microphone
Hey Ruuubick's Cube, how's it hanging my man?
Oki.
Aight, gonna leave me on read, aighty aight
is that the real ruuubick. omg
yuH

anyways sylvia welcome to vrchat
yuh, you can use ya global emotes here and stuff Zitron

I can't live without this emote ^
Also wuts best for vr headset: like a computer or pc? Cuz I have a pc(no computer box thingy). Or is there no difference?
Quality wise. Cuz I did lag a bit when I was on vrchat earlier
I mean, you wanna ideally have a PC, othewise you can't play the game
true
Like that's step 0
Well yea.
step -1
@modern sand I sent like 3 paragraphs and includes a few pictures if they need more of my client ill send it to them i have one module in it witch is the anti log out thats it but i got rid of out of my vrchat folder because yall said i wasnt alowed to have it so once i get unabanned if i do ill fully delete it sorry im complaining i jsut really miss the game and i cant play it no more by the time i get unbanned none of my friends are gonna be playing it..
You'll have to wait until it's looked at, you should include all you have so that they don't ask you for it
okay
can someone make me a ultra instinct peng avatar
please
This is VRChat, I need you to say something different
Figure it out
Magic
Magic
Magic
No
dang
XD
The magic word is: pay
Since I ain't doing shit for free
Nor is anyone else willing to put up with begging

Skadaddle skadoodle
do you know a world where you can find a peng avatar
Your dick is now a noodle
👏🏻
Is this thing about steam vrchat accounts getting compromised real?
I didn't hear anything about steam VRChat accounts specifically. I heard a rumour about a new steam phishing scam. But that it
Hmm friend told me to do a no lewd challenge. Looked him square in the eyes and said “I’d fail that in 2 seconds! Hell nah Man!”
Probably belongs elsewhere but, oh well too late now!
Phishing is a constant threat that you should always be cautious of. As steam always says, never give your password to anyone. Double check that emails asking you to login are actually from legitimate sources and such
The recent rumor is that just clicking specific steam urls can cause trouble, without even typing any information. So just be mindful of which links you click too, especially if they contain something about steam.
Haven't heard anything beyond the rumor so wouldn't worry too much about it, but nothing wrong with being careful
I'm not sure about the rumours, only seen them in passing. But for sure, you can never be too careful! 😄
hello
Hello again ^^
I wish could play this game, but my laptop only have 2 gb ram
and only 2.4 ghz vison amd
Oof.. sounds like you may want to upgrade to a desktop PC
You can actually get some pretty good VR Capable PCs for not a ridiculous amount. If you don't need it to run VR and just run regular games it could be even cheaper!
idk where to buy the stuff from tho
You can look around in either the Internet or PC stores for PC parts
I'm having problems loading people's avatars like it will take a really long time to load other people and while it does it starts lagging like bad. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem?
If you have no idea what you're doing, you could buy a prebuilt machine, those are pretty easy to find
How's your internet otherwise?
my internet is fine I guess
Sorry, that last bit was directed at Pawpi
I don't have very good internet speed
Can't really do much about it since the router is upstairs and my pc is downstairs. So i'm forced to use wifi
Could potentially just be your internet is having issues, that seems like the most likely explanation to me
hi, im new to vrchat, anyone want to be my friend? or what channel on this discord do i go?
You can find lots of people to be your friends, chat here, meet new people. Maybe even check out #community-servers-old and see if there are any community Discord servers that peak your interest! 😄
But welcome to VRChat! 😄
I really hope this game lag gets fixed soon, dunno why its happened but ever since the update the game freezes for like a second or two then carrys on for maybe 7 seconds all fine then does the same thing again
and doesnt stop :PP
At my 4 minute marker for playing VRChat my loading percent was at 0
Then I started browing on discord for about 6 more minutes and the percent had boosted up, dont know if thats a me problem or if that happens for other desktop users
Anyone know where I can find a good General Grievous Avatar? I tried the one on vrcmods.com but wrong lightsabers
Im absolute shite at modeling so i cant really fix that myself either or make my own
anyone want to voice chat?
K welp vrchat is broken
is vrchat ded for everyone?
No but its giving the same laggy problem and some worlds arent loading anymore or avatars :PP
When isnt vrc broken 
well its never THIS broken
:PP
Idk if its my internet or vrc. I often take ages to load into worlds. Often my friendslist is empfy + Avatars aswell. Nothing shows. World tab doesnt show worlds and when it Does i cant join any bc it loads ages to even show me the join button
my whole Menu bugs out everytime I log on.
its vrc :/
just cleaned out my c drive last night and worlds are downloading at 50ish kbs
I clean it weekly 😭
I dunno.. its so bad with these bugs nowdays. Often ruin my mood when i have to restart 10 times till it works
Cant even load the login site 
Just gotta hope it gets mended soon
anyone know to fix VrChat sdk issue where it only has Clear cache and Player Prefs?
Use the right unity version
but what if the model only works in a older unity version?
Then your misinformed as that's not how unity works
Yeah, VRChat updated to Unity 2017.4.15f1 recently so just download it here: https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive
nd download the SDK again @scarlet flint
not too sure how to migrate avatars from the old unity version though so meh... just ask in #avatars-2-general maybe
@vocal shard For 99% of avatars, unless you're using deprecated features (like the legacy Animation or VRC_KeyTrigger component) is to literally just re-upload.
Nice
@scarlet flint it helped me to delete all SDK files in the Folder and reimport the SDK 
















































Nah, even cleaning cache doesn't help with VRChat.
My home is error world and I can't load any avatar, either mine or someone's else.
Sorry, this should be posted in #user-support-old I suppose
Saw a video of people that were able to create physics on other avatars Its coming!
wat r u talking about
Can finally smack them Ears! Oh, was a video where a guy could touch parts of other folk’s avatars and move them ie the breasts or ass
wtf r u takking about [2] that video is old
LOL welp I knew that.
besides ppl use modded clients 2 do that or use some hacky collider workaround thats 2 buggy 2 use correctly
Ohhh
cuz it looks super glitchy locally, gets stuck inside things, and keeps flinging u into space
Well makes sense then, but should be base game cause urge to smack them ears rising
there already tutorials on doing it but honestly even tho modded client bad they still do it better
Do anyone know someone called SyXeD?
y
rip
Rip
I gotta hop on vrchat again. Chill with some folks got distracted with arma last night
the person using it needs actual hand colliders and they need specific dynamic bone setup thing
so its rlly not worth it sometimes
He manipulated my friend and made her rly depressed and i cannot tolerate that at all..
Hmmm damn,
And i want to reason him so he doeant do the same to any one else
couldnt u just ask them then..?
I did
Kek well, ima say this. Don’t trust people and until there is proof of this, manipulation is super vague so...
But she doesnt want to give the user
well that her problem ig
I can send u a screenshot of how he was..
u can report them but
Oh man reminds me of trying to communicate with germans...

Good times.
yea but the report button used 2 get bad ppl off discord
like there a difference between be rude and be evil
i don't get how any1 would be depressed over this
^
sound like clingy ex literally just let go
Basically trust me kid you don’t get fuck all with an ex just leave
Even then, I got some fun times with mine cause She a skaaaaank
i a daaaawg
Am a jester!

🍽
who's a skank
Nasssii
hey Occy
I'm always chipper my guy. don't let my bland text fool you. i'm just at work. doing inspections on some equipment we have.
That sounds lovely
it's actually the most boring, tedious thing ever--but it's aight.
boring stuff. hazardous equipment lockers, drawers with tablets, computer stuff, and eye wash stations.
Sounds dangerous
my job can be more on the dangerous side, if you wanna think about it like that. i've gotten used to it tho, lol
Inspections? Interesting...
You say it's boring but I mean, it sounds like you're out doing something fun. Instead of sitting on your butt all day you know?
Hello today! I hope you all have a lovely day. Stay safe if you're out in that snow.
Are you saying I should drive recklessly just because I'm in the sun? 
@tiny ginkgo Definitely. Go buckwild! ❤
the work is lame. but the people I work with make it enjoyable. and yeah nass pedal to the metal
I sit on my butt all day. ^o^
Me too
hope your butts aren't sore
It could use a massage tbh
booty massage? classic

Yeah right?
just do some squats in the meantime
I still don't gain any weight somehow. Except in my butt. haha
I guess I bike to work when it's not actively snowing.
a good butt makes the world go round, so congrats
A good butt and thicc thighs make my bike's wheels go around that's for sure
Hah yeah... I think it might be all the biking but I definitely have leggg
I eat eggs for breakfast and soup for dinner
lmfao nice nass.
I would quote my boi space dandy but I forget the whole speech he has about ass
Who's ya boi?
I only watched the first few eps of that. it looked wild
Making my avatar ride a skateboard that appears whenever I move with the joystick. It works great in vr, but on desktop my body spins around like a tornado while head stays in place. Any idea why this happens? For desktop people only?
@languid beacon I have to say, that's pretty badass and I like it.
Not the bug but the skateboard idea.
idles do that with me too when I'm desktop. dunno why. probably has something to do with the animation itself
It’s a mixano animation but I’ve tweeked it a bit and didn’t notice anything weird
hmm. might be a unity issue then. no clue my dude
Oof. Thanks though. I don’t wanna public it until it works for everyone
It works for desktop too just not for yourself you see yourself spinning but no one else does
Oh weird
Maybe I missed it, but has there been any news/updates regarding Udon? I can't find anything since June last year, and the Canny seems to be dead. Is it still going ahead?
The only thing I’ve heard is “This year”
Oh. Well, that's something
it'll get here when it gets here I guess
It's gotta come this year

I hope so, it could really give vrc a new lease of life. I can think of a lot of things I'd like to do.
@runic hound 
stamps feet but I want it now! 😅 Just kidding, I'm patient, just checking it wasn't dead
@vocal shard 🤗
Yeah, could really do without a "streamer/YouTuber" rank.
that's a thing?
Rumour that it might come later... No idea
that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard, lol. don't those folks already got a huge chip on their shoulder for being steamers or whatever? the ones I've met always act better than everyone else.
There is the VIP rank that was appearing randomly a while back
Don't talk bad about streamers again, it's not a good discussion 
Yeah the vip rank was an old thing. The glitch was showing all the nameplate options that were disabled. VIP was used for some people like deadmou5
Don't the rank thing create a feeling of inferiority to the new user/user ?
Hrmph, deadmau5 is more important than me? Well now I'm sad

Hm maybe.. I don't feel like the people I meet care what rank I am
The true rank is in our hearts
That's true,
But well, i saw some people not talking to others because of their rank.
So i guess that's affecting the gameplay a little ?
It does in a good way
If people are so uptight that they won't speak to me based on my rank, I would rather avoid them anyways. So it's a quality of life improvement.
Oh yeah you're right ^^
May be just because they had voice disabled for those ranks in safety settings
Could be that also.
And how would not having the rank system change new player's behaviour though?
I mean wouldn't new players do the above no matter the ranking system or not?
You're not wrong
Well, new players.. More like idiots obviously
Some Visitors/New Users are nice though
oh I wasn't talking bad. I could care less. about ranks and anything. just wish people wouldn't act like theyre better than people they don't know is all.
@steep turret Exactly what i wanted to say ^^"
Yeah that's the problem,
You're being labeled depending on your rank
overheard some folks saying they just block purples for being purples, which I am apparently. didn't even know until recently lol
I used to be Trusted,
But apparently deleting Non Playing friends got me ranked down 😭
That's so weird.. Weird behaviour
that's odd
I won't judge anyone until I have spoken to them
@tiny ginkgo Same as you.
.. Or they have crashed my game obviously
Idk I’ve gotten a lot of people who say they hide more features on purple than green because purples crash people. As a purple, that sucks and makes me wish rank didn’t exist
I don't judge people unless they're, y'know, some scummy person or whatever for obvious reasons. I treat everyone the same more or less
@brisk bone Totally agrees with you.
Atleast we can easily see who are being jerks in this game
Hmmmm, what about this idea? What if the reason it appears to some that purples are crashing more than others, is because the safety system is working better than we realize, and just blocking all the other ranks from crashing?
Rather than this stigma that's forming how "purples themselves are bad"....
Or something?
could be. who knows honestly. I think the ranking system was a bad move in general, but whatevs.
Yeah. I already stated my opinion on it when it first came out. But 
I've disabled shields personally so I have no idea
Gotta work with what we got
I think VRC is boring without all the crazy avatars and effects etc so for me I just go naked
Mhmm, i disable all the safety too
Well at least going to publics and such is, for me
Even so, in purely social situations, not messing with avatars, just chatting, I feel people are more talkative/approachable when I hide as green.
Yeah I also think there's some sort of superiority "fear"
Yeah. Especially for newer players. Some feel intimidated to talk to others who've been there longer
maybe I'll pose as a green for a while. then again people don't normally bring up my rank when I talk to randos
I’d be green all the time but muh shaders
Sometimes when i read this chat i think ya'll playing a diff game
They're playing the meta
Hmm? This isn't Roblox?
this isn't kingdom hearts 3 vr?
Sai I used to feel that way, I’m like “people only care about rank on discord, no one cares in VRChat itself” but eh, im starting to notice the social effects of having a label over peoples heads
We should have ranks on Discord
I want the shark rank
The Shrank
legit havent met a single person giving a flying fuck about the ranks
you need the vrchat dlc pre-order deluxe edition for the super secret badass rank
i want the nuisance rank
good for you sai. neither have I. only overheard it In a convo once
I've seen my friend go with his green tag and try to meet some "higher" ranks to see how they treat him. A couple of groups did actually make fun of him for his green rank and sort of ignore him. Until he flashed his purple and then they changed.
It depends where you go i guess
such hats
Mhmm. But they had a bit of an ego anyway. Wouldn't want to be with them 
No exactly. That's an instant bail right there.
I haven’t met anyone who cares ether, Sai. But make your tag green for a bit and you may notice people act more personable
It's really nice when people do use the ranks as an opportunity to help welcoming new ones though.
an ego is okay as long as you aren't an ass. I have a huuuuge ego. but I don't treat people like garbage because of it
Like it or not some people are intimidated by the purple tag and it sucks because I want my shaders lol
what shader
Purple rank can use custom shader code
Mhmm.
I had one friend who thought the ranking system was like... Accurate...
At first he blocked everything below trusted. Even voice. He thought people started trusted and then lost rank as they made mistakes in game. Oof
If you hide as green, safety treats you like a green, no one sees your custom shaders
I want to make the whole world yellow

you fuckin adorable bean
Nass wants to pee on the whole world, run.
i use the safety to turn off animations for everyone but friends
and turn off avataars for visitors
and wholesome moment ruined lmfao

The vrc devs need to start developing the safety system for use in rl. It would improve my workday and those unfortunate moments when I have to go outside.
understandable lol
Don't be silly, cars can't run, they don't have any legs
I bike in the bike lane
Cars decide to make a turn when I have the right
I get run down
Or equally bad. Pedestrians can't get their eyes off of their phones. I run them down because they cross over right in front of me
🤔
what world would i find ricardo milos avatar?
Oh yeah. I'm a pedestrian and the phone thing drives me crazy, people are constantly walking into me
(I don't use my phone while walking, they do)
who said about wanting ranks in real life? my jobs has IRL ranks lol
There are so many ranks irl
not the ranks, but the safety system. I'd just switch almost everyone off
I have safety off entriely yeah. I used vrc before it existed, I’m fine with it off and just hiding the avatars that are annoying manually
As I understand it though most people keep theirs set at normal safety so unless you friend them most won’t see your avatar correctly until purple 😦 that’s the only reason I care about rank. I’m just vein and want people to see me lol
Yeah I just assume most people see me

tfw you get a
right after one of your controllers runs out of batteries and you're about to drop off
^ and ill be like " ehh ill add you next time "
then the friend request drops into the abyss of pending friend requests i have
Why not decline old ones?
theres literally hundreds of them
I wouldnt know where to start XD
Use the API I guess lol
I don't let them build up - if I get a request I'm accepting or declining it either right away, or after at most like ten minutes to see who this person is
most of the time i get request from people not even in the same world as me so i just ignore them
and it has been going on for a year now
Not in the same world? Declined. Though it would be useful to have a "block friend requests" button
you can accept/deny via the website
Yeah I know. But still...
Tfw you get an add right after horn rubs...
Or by calling people thots... either one is strange
you live an interesting life rick
AHAHAHA yes!
And so be it! I enjoy it.
Don’t get me started on my gf when I was in college...
Well, my ex*

I think I'll leave that topic alone lol
Yo.
hello
Good. You?
tfw make your own avatar from a cube and no one notices
how many people are on this ?
!online
There are 5883 users in VRChat currently
tada?
On this?.... Discord server? Or in game?
discord
Yeah 
And more offline
wow
there are 58,684 member in total on the discord (offline and online)
including any bots they have which i only know abt the vrcbot so yeah
there have been a few other VRChat like things comming out, some that actually show a lot of promise, they also use unity, but VRChat seems to be better simply cause the social part, these othes have very little users and a huge learning curve
oh yeah, they want to charge a montly subscription for them as well
Oof
its only 1,200 a month, so its not bad
Vrchat has a history as well. We just hit 5 years. And it seems like it's going to stay for quite a bit longer
call me old school, but i really feel VRChat is SecondLife 2.0
A user created multiverse.
(now with an actual game engine)
Vrchat is more real than my real world tbh
Like Second Life.
In that sense, somewhat. But i don't think vrchat wants the reputation second life has
Idk whar second life is
Oh ok
Second Life was an open world sandbox that was all user created, no goals, no finish line, you made your world.
Yes what it boiled down to now is a sespool, but in its golden years it was simply amazing.
Also a monetization platform for content creators
Correct.
ey guys i got a question to ask
Sup?
do you guys think the vrchat sdk is hard to install
No
its a unity package, so no
i didn't want to work for me at first so
It’s Unity
ye
Ive never had a problem witb the sdk
i had some issue trying to install it at first but now it works
now i just need to wait to import a model
Iy takes ages
Got a job at oculus support! This should be fun
Oh, cool!

Wulfe I read the other day that you have a beautiful voice.
wat
Next time we meet don't hide it
Their wuff is superior

Is wha I do!
ima maek dat an emoji

i has question, where you do find out how long you've been on vrchat for (account creation)
I don't think there's a way to check. You just have to remember when you joined

Probably best bet to get close is to check your steam "purchase date" for vrchat
@toxic halo Congrats on the job
@heavy dawn ty! ^^
my job is be fluff and get pay in pats and treat
That sounds like a good job
yus
👋 🐶
Cya
Anyone know where I can find a good General Grievous Avatar? I tried the one on redacted but wrong lightsabers
Im absolute shite at modeling so i cant really fix that myself either or make my own
You can learn it
gives @stone current 1 Internet pats
Btw you might want to remove that URL. That site is not supported on here as it shits on VRChat guidelines, has stolen avatars, and other such things
yeee
fixed it
if u cant make ur own then get some1 2 do it 4 u, pay some1, or learn
video in #general-media ima repost
so theres really no endorsed hub for getting shared avatars then?
wat
like a steam workshop or nexus?
its not a shared avatar
yea just checked my licenses for my steam and i have been on vrchat a year today
its a 'avatar' that someone gave away
General Grievous wouldn't be too bad to make yourself. There are lots of pieces of art that show the front and sides. There's a technique for modelling where you set the 2D art as a background and just trace around it basically in verteces. Then stretch those into the shape that looks right. 😃
yikes
if the model is crepe then it person who made its fault so
unles not meant 4 vrcat
VRChat is good because you can see yourself in different forms and because it's a creative medium that's interactive. You can make art that you wear and interact with. Or your own house! YOur own world!
and u can draw pp in 3d
I looked at myself in a VRChat mirror today and though "damn, this model looks good"
*look at actual mirror*
And it stared right back at me with its eyetracking
hehe yeah
1 time i crashed at the worst tiem
didnt really expect a motivational speech i just wanted to find a cool avatar
The only weird thing about mirrors is the mouth tracking happens about a second after you say something.
i was in home with liek 1 friend
Is it lined up for other users?
no wait 2 frend and a random
Real mirrors are scary. They remind me that I'm actually adult now.
I've been adult for over 5 years, but it's still hard to get used to
Why dont you want a motivational speech
and i look in mirror and say 'what u think of this model'
and then the avatar make a angery face and i crashed
because i want a cool avatar instead
Make it
ok let me just gib u 10 bucc bc u want sum monz
We can build it, we have the technology
Then go to avatar worlds
LMAO I'm imagining just modelling the "Just deal with it" pixel art sunglasses as a model by themselves and giving it to @mental turret
The emotes woudl all be the glasses fall fromt he ceiling and the text shows.
I tried but theres not very many worlds with SW avatars
o i modeled that b4
@stone current Doing God's work
If you suck at modeling (I do too) you can always just fuck with the textures in photoshop or someting
when u did handgun it do a ranged screenshake shader wit dwi glasses
🤣
That's the nexxt thing I want to learn! I watched a tutorial last night before bed.
I had to hide an avatar today for breaking the poly limit, grabbing my view with a shader, and playing volume above the usual limit
Whats sw
Star wars
shark waters
I guess it's really as simple as making the animation and putting it into the slot in the VRChat Avatar Descriptor.
Oh
it looks like im not getting any help here
Wym theres a kermit the frog darth vador its beautiful
ill leave
sory its *shaken whiskey
No hate for Kermit..
wat bout mr frog brother pepe
What I hate most about shaders that fuck up your view, it's that people just downloaded them off of that one shitty site.
If they had coded it themselves, I would be at least somewhat okay with it
Aww... Sorry Chocolad. Ripping avatars from different places is actually against the rules so I don't think people will help with that. But if you're interested in Star Wars and want grievous, you can probably find a free model online and rig it yourself using Mixamo.
it cull itself out if u 2 far away from it
Won't be perfect but good enough to start with.
Isn't that just a shaking sphere?
they already left 
Ripping is against the rules of copyright..
so not troll ppl who away
I see, guess that works
ye it is but ripped models r everywhere in vrcat
Thanks for being considerate
even ripped worlds but those r made public anyway
and u cant report ripped avatar on vrcat so
Doesnt mean its not allowed
Wow, they actually left the server.
Rules are basically "don't talk about how to rip stuff"
Which is silly. And that too, yeah
not surprising. Sometimes people come in here expecting immediate answers to their questions and if they don't get them within a few minutes they sulk or throw a fit and leave
probably bc not their fault unless following article 13
cuz article 13 say their fault 4 allowing upload of content
but if not it the users fault and they just remove the content as needed
kinda like utube copyright thing
but idk if games rlly care about it
What the rule basically says is:
You have a specific sequence of electricity at some memory address (a videogame) and you're not allowed to move it to a new address, or inform others how to do so
it already happen a lot 2 them and its more free advertisement
that not make sense lol
Depends on the company and how litigious they are.
proper term is the model is stored in RAM or in files and it is converted or stored as common/usable format
Ripping an avatar is taking data already on your computer and copying it to blender or whatever
woof
there's tons of nintendo avatars in vrc though
@tacit plank Yeah and also uploading it to basically a sharing service that is VRchat.
To even use an avatar, you're basically uploading it to be shared. (Just not necessarily worn by others.)
That too. But I do whatever I want with information which is on my machine, especially if I paid for it
Every other user gets to cache it.
You paid for the game, not the individual assets
Sure, just might make you liable if it's a trademarked character, or basically any art since everything is copyright from the moment you make it.
well again
The assets are in the game
u can easily google liek 'gta 5 trevor model'
not like those gnna be removed anytime soon
heh yeah
I think it's not a big concern for them. Especially if they aren't selling mascots like Nintendo is.
and yea assets part of game but like
It's not that I think that I own the assets. It's that it's absurd to make it illegal for me to change the sequence of bits in my machine, or copy them to other locations in my ram or on my HDD
Companies care more if they want to re-use the same IP over and over and their lawyers say they have to file copyright claims or forfeit their right to do so in the future (in US law I believe)
well thats not the problem
u can take them just fine it doesnt matter'
legal issue arise when u use them
^
bc they hold the copyright
if they wanted 2 they could take any legal action they want on behalf of the product
Technically, it's illegal to download mp3s from Youtube. But you can't view them without downloading them in the process
and if they go after individuals ur basically a goner bc of all the legal experience 4 the company
It would still be wrong for me to sell others assets of course
Kinda wrong there caff
You cant split the audio from youtube video;s
And mp3 programs do that
I hate copyright, it's broken as hell. I also thing creators need to be paid. It takes a lot of time and effort to make things.
Copyright, patents, and trademarks are all pretty broken right now.
again u can look up some illegal things and download them 2 ur pc
i have no idea what you guys are talking about but its something about ripping and i'll just say this: i port models all the time because I can't model for shit (for now at least) and i like to mash them together making new things.
but if ur caught with it ur going 2 jail
Serve corproations, don't guarantee individual creators get paid.
mp4, then. My point still stands
You are allowed to record it instead and use that file from youtube.
Then YT wont give a shit- There is a reason some websites provide that service then
again u can look up some illegal things and download them 2 ur pc
but if ur caught with it ur going 2 jail
the caught with it applies to literally everything including other crimes
That's fair enough
you're not going to jail for ripping models or mp3's. Most that'll happen is you get fined
ye is exageration
Sometimes huge fines, but yeah.
n0
sounds like the equivalent of mr. Lange and the fact that he will LITERALLY SUE YOU IF HE CATCHES YOU WITH ONE OF HIS MODELS
But it's a funny thought that if you reverse all the bytes, the information is still illegal if law enforcement can turn it into something illegal
Because that's not a thing in Canada. (I didn't think so.)
they may be put in jail but like
It's even possible to generate random bits, and ending up with something illegal
that was way bacc when no one could even pay debt
less ppl not paying debt nowadays
and they just sieze all ur assets for collateral
there's nothing like that in the US lilithelotor
i mean i get the fact that they made the model but SONIC IS A COPYRIGHTED CHARACTER AND HE BASICALLY STEALS THE CHARACTER AND SUES ANYONE WHO USES IT
yeaaaa
the chances that ur gonna generate the right sequence
are so so so so so so so so so so so so so
so so so so so so so low that it would be theoretically impossible
in fact u would be much much more lucky if u generated a file format instead
but still very unlucky
Depends on how I got the information. If it's uploaded to youtube on some official channel, I won't feel bad for downloading it.
But I won't copy VRChat avatars even though they're in my cache and I technically can
bc u do realize that for example 1 byte is 8 bits
and for every 8 bits u can have on and off for each one
If digital liberty people think we should be able to steal everything, because "it's not stealing, it's copying," then they should also agree that we should have high marginal taxes and social programs that make sure people who do jobs like art aren't left on the streets.
thats already like 256 combinations
🤷
add another byte
256^2
add enough bytes for maybe a small file, like 10,000
256^10,000
good luck
Yeah, if we could accidentally make great stuff all the time, it would happen. Good work takes effort. A LOT of effort sometimes. Effort over time to learn how to do it, effort to actually make something, etc.
Yeah, a 1k by 1k picture has 7.8*10^7224719 combinations of colors
Unless I did the math wrong. It's a lot, anyways
i mean u can accidentally make great stuff
u can make some neural network that analyzes models and creates their own
or analyzes modelling vids and 'learns' how 2 model liek a person lol
Would that be stealing from every avatar creator though? Since you're generating data based on them
um not rlly
ur not exactly sharing their stuff and u would probably ask if it isnt public domain
but its the same reason why if u use a meme or image/video of game on utube u dont get dmca'd
Yet, lol
wym yet its fair use
Article 13 or whatever?
its never gona be a thing since fair use law
no that completely different
article 13 changes some things including how copyright cases are handled and who is at fault
Yeah reasonable limits on copyright. Fair use is huge.
not rlly anything about fair use
Ah, I see
like nobody can go sue u 4 copyright bc u have a game logo in their video
Well, give it a few years
or if u stream ur gameplay
no its never gona happen lmao
not like twitch is gona be murdered
We're slowly losing to companies that want money
so
having a copyright doesnt make u the king of the world
just means u own ownership of ur assets and u can issue copyright violation claim for reasonable things
Most files in your computer and phone are already send to various databases and shared with the government.
Scanning these files for copyrighted things is not difficult, and is the next step if companies think there's money to be made
@stone current hf fighting it in court tho
I have had to host some things on my own website because I made a mashup of Expanse and Les Miserables. They blocked it worldwide! Yay NBC.
however the only instance of ppl going overboard is the GMC music or whatever DMCA'ng utube vids 4 playing music or smtg
relevant one that is
Yeah I get copyright claims when I stream all the time in VR. Surprisingly more on VRchat than when I play beat saber. 🤣
There's like one song on beat saber I get claims for.
Not being able to share in the monetization of a video with a claim is 100% bullshit.
there also stuff like this https://youtu.be/z4AeoAWGJBw
It's currently difficult to remove your things from Youtube, so it will only happen if you get a lot of views with it.
But it's slowly being automated because people are retarded and share everything about themselves.
Also look at twitch clips. Like 1/3 of the audio is gone by default because copyrighted music is detected
Example: video is mostly my work but a section of it was outside and someone was playing music? CLAIMED!
What will happen next is that your GPU will automatically charge a fine from your credit card when you go above the speed limit or something
@heavy dawn can counter claim that though
And with the new youtube beta it aint too hard
nobody cares if u blow up ur own pc with it other than whoever was there
In theory
unless was design flaw
But you don't have access over your own phone anymore. Computers are heading in the same direction
ye u do
@umbral reef To be fair, you're right. In that specific case I actually won a counter-claim.
u can do whatever u want with ur phone as long as is legal lol
Sometimes you get shot down though. FAST. It's up to the claimant. And they can choose to REALLY retaliate by giving you a strike.
u own the phone but u dont own the rights 2 it
but there are stuff like 'if u tampered with it we cant fix it apples rules'
y this in general
I think anti-tamper rules are illegal in some states aren't they? I know warranty void stickers are unenforceable or something.
Huh, so it is
You don't know what's going on on your phone. The government does though, and likely Facebook
Good idea
thats 4 ur own good tho

Dynamic Bone components 
Dynamic Bone transforms 🔴
Avatar rating: 🔴
Everything's good and excellent except this stupid transforms requirement
CATS can combine bones. I don't think it will even look different
Its the main thing that causes lagg tho
Why
You don't need more bone transforms than my avatar even has bones. Whoever made the avatar did something terribly wrong, and fixing it only takes a few minutes with the CATS Blender plugin
Because every transform has to be calculated always
The more transforms the more to calculate
Its hard to calculate 1000 of things 60 times a second
And it tries to catch up if its lagging behind what makes everything slowdown
Like I have 5 atlas'd models with a few bones and always goes red on transforms
Dynamic Bones are probably one of the things that cause the most lag, that's why.
Isn't red only past 50 or something?
They should remove the the transforms requirement seriously
No
hahaha
Lyeco, read. You're ignoring everything we say.
If you want laggy worlds that you cant actually play? Yes go for it my dude
Dynamic bones are one of the things that cause the most lag. It's there for a reason.
The system is there to measure lag. It's not perfect, but your avatar is laggy and people deserve to know that and hide it if they wish
u can just ignore the performance rating tho
ppl will block u if mostly in red or laggy af
and it reds at 33, not 50
but not like u should purposefuly make it poor
Kinda sucks if they're binary. Especially when they check if the rest of the model is fricken green
Cant deny that but everything with dynamic bones should be judged harshly
ears with 2 each
You're right on that end, but how many transforms are your dynamic bones?
A skirt only needs maybe 12 bones to look good. Hair maybe 4 or 6. Tits one bone each.
There is no excuse for having 100, and even less excuse for having 10 colliders on top of that
A few extra materials will most of the time give less problems then a dynamic bones or cloth
If we ever do get a graded system, odds are dynamic bones will be the harshest judged thing on the list still,. and for good reason
probably have 999 hair bones
Just remove a transform, you'll be at Orange. Poor is 33
The link is proof of why I hate the transforms requirement
bro legit
Except again, you're completely ignoring all the points we're making
u do not need more than 33 for that avatar
there is literally nothing dynamic other than skirty thing or hair
Just merge bone weights.
Your avatar doesn't even have a skirt. You have 33 bones in the hair? Install CATS, go to optimization, select something with "hair" in its name, press "merge" then "75%" or something. That's literally all it takes
mine are much more dynamic and not read poor
Proof that I am ignoring
Because you're complaining about it despite knowledge that dynamic bones are the worst thing for performance.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7sAPfGrHns learn how to merge bone weights, you'll be fine
You want to lag others because you're lazy. You're free to, but they deserve to know that fact at the very least
all this arguing is tearing this family apart
ur tearig me apart lisa
I hope the grading system is put in place ASAP
Because I don't want one part red to be completely a failure
Yes, it needs to be fixed.
Just fix the damn model man
^
No, Odds are it wouldn't be in red if everything else is Excellent or Good
lazy nob
33 transforms isn't a lot
my models look way more complex with db and not that many transforms
Plus. all my transforms are in the hair itself
DB should be the most heavily weighted thing, but 33 shouldn't be putting you in red once there's real grading
Well, Lyeco, just merge some bone weights
True. But that people can have "poor" rating on 5 different things and still be below "very poor" is more of a problem than the opposite thing happening
Easy for you to say
Merge one bone even
they gave u a utube vid u nob
Long video
2 bad
Like 52 minutes wtf
Install CATS plugin, go to optimization. Find something with "hair" in its name. Press the button.
You're done
OH NOOOO I HAVE TO SPEND TIME TO LEARN NEW SKILSSSS AHHHHH
Lel
I feel a lot less sorry for you than i originally did, you're just lazy.
No, I'll just rather wait for the grading update .
You realize we might never get it, right?
Who says it will ever happen?
Tupper
Also you literally confirm you're lazy.
Yea as tupper has all the say within the company lmao nice meme
Do you know Tupper's job? jw
Yes, and remember how long it took to get chairs?
The next update should be point-based.
And I doubt the ranking system is very high on the ladder
It should be, but that doesn't mean it's coming any time soon.
And chairs would return within weeks not months or years.
But i guess a VRC week is actually a few months for normal humans~~
You mean chairs on avatars?
by waiting all you do is prove you're lazy and can't click literally five buttons
Im also still waiting for Udon
Or multiple hand gestures or all the other things 'they are looking into'
I know how to atlas and parent bones but not merge weights
There's....there's literally a button for it, and a video, multipel videos
Kareeda's isn't the only one, it's just the most indepth
Its legit one button press with CATS
literally google "merge bone weights blender"
I am not lazy completely
I only hate that specific part only.
I literally just said I do Atlas and I do parent bones.
Still- Complaining about the system and or its rating is unjust when its about dynamic bones.
You can even see tuppers own video about this.
Use CATS. It's literally easier than atlasing
Oh right, he does merge bone weights
No
Less bones means less transforms
.....
Transforms is "amount of bones affected by dynamic bones" I believe
Basically, yes.
You can see in the pic that everything's optimized except the transfrom. I am just pulling my hair why it's red alot
You know why
I am just going grovel.
We told you why. We told you how brain dead simple it is to fix.
It's brain dead simple to you but not to others
No, it's brain dead simple to everyone, you're just too lazy to learn
probably not simple for a blind person
It's delusional to say that it's brain dead simple to everyone
nothing, it seems
@queen mango I am complaining about bone transforms
I promise it's easy
Specifically dyanamic bone transforms.
No, it's REALLY not. There's youtube videos and CATs documentation
I bet you haven't read the documentation for CATs at all have you? Nor have to watched any guides
What might sound easy to you, may not be easy to others.
Especially with CATS. You just press 3 buttons. It does everything else for you
Just because you can't do it doesn't mean it isn't simple
Can you explain to me how clicking two buttons isn't simple? I'd like to know.
The fact that you managed to open Discord is proof enough that you can use CATS
I know how to use CATS
No you don't
But not reduce bone transforms
So you don't know how to use CATS.
Where do you think I know how to ATLAS
Legit you already did the thing you need to do
this is a very circular conversation
Because you can use CATS to to reduce bones. See?
Bone parenting is the exact same within cats as merging bones
It's not. It's really, really not.
It looks like this:
Optimization:
Bone Merging
To Merge: _______ (drop down selection menu)
Merge ratio: 50%
Refresh list | Merge Bones
You don't know completely how to use CATS. There's documentation both on the DLpage for it, and on youtube. You choose not to learn, you're at fault, no one else.
Hmmm I need the horn pats! Screee
I know how. Why do you think I have avatars?
Less bones is less transforms
classic rick
Lyeco, if you know how to use CATS why can't you merger bone weights?
I have 400 hours on Blender damn it!
Because I can't.
Then learn how. It's simple, it takes seconds.
You check my steam profile.
you ever talk to a wall? i think this is what it must be like
400 hours on blender
There's guides on the internet for you. CATS has documentation as well as
yeah, I'm done. Some people are so smoothbrained it's painful. I'll let you stay ignorant
I'll let you stay unemphatic then
Yup! I have to be a skank when ever I can in vr
Its legit- Select two bones in edit mode
Press spacebar
"Merge-"
Done
I was empathetic until you showed an adversity to learn. We gave you the resources, you chose to not use them.
Cause why not! That’s my reasoning
classic rick, yet again lol
The moment you said that it's dead simple to everyone is the moment you lose your empathy.
AHAHAHAHA hey, you know it!
It's like saying you don't know how to use numlock, and then yelling at people who try to explain that it's to the right on the keyboard
The only people it's not simple to are those who did not choose to learn.
Most people stand in their own way when it comes to success in life, but you take it to a new level. I'm done with this conversation
It isn't very considerate you know. Not everyone is Mic_sounders or caffeine.
That's true. Some people are their own worst enemy.
top 10 anime betrayals
lol
You were given resources to learn. Use them, or don't. It's up to you. We're done
Hey, if you want to call me dumb go ahead. Not everyone is you anyway so yeah. I am done as well
you three gonna kiss or what
No
im getting crashed on oculus and steam?
sorry, lol i had to
anybody else being crashed?
But lyeco
If you can parent bones you can merge bones with CATS
Its legit almost the same thing within CATS, takes no shortcuts, searching for effects or changing settings at all really. Its more simple then decimating a model or merging materials...
Ocalc jsut let them smoothbrain, it's ok
waste your time on people who want to learn
this is like a love triangle but with dislike instead of love
find where I said that
@vocal shard I don't seem to have a problem right now regarding those two.. you sure you have the latest version?
lol I gave you the resources you need to learn, you ignored them.
I know the resources. I am just not into reducing the dynamic bone transforms.
Call me Stupid or Dumb
Whatever
Just ignorant and lazy
or Lazy
lol you have no reason not to do it other than laziness
Whatever mockery you want to say to me.
now kiss
Am I wrong?
No kissing
Why don't you want to reduce them
Because I made the model less functional for me or lose the weights. It'll sound stupid to you but that's my explanation.
That's incorrect.
You won't lose the weights. It will merge them and look almost exactly the same.
My hair might not even move as much anymore.
hes right lyeco, but yall should just fall into each others arms already anyway
If it was one bone maybe
But with how many you still have that get transformed il be amazed if anyone can see the difference if you do it right
No!
Or even if you do it badly really
How much it moves depends on the dynamic bone values that you give it
It's making my blood boil. I don't want to be angry like a boiling teapot.
why are u mad over models anyway
I bet there won't be any visual changes unless you remove more than 80%

Learn to control your emotions too while you're at it, or at least direct them properly
I am.
lol
Merging bone weights will show almost no difference whatsoever
You literally don't know what you're talking about. You're wrong.
you even said it "might" not move as much, so that proves you don't even know
VRChat is doing its job, the creator of CATS invested a lot of his time in making this task really easy for you. Neither of the two are to blame
Only the people too lazy to do it or too ignorant to learn are to blame tbh
and too impatient to test, of course
dont need to optimize if the mirror drops u to 45 anyways 
solid point
You can have 90 FPS with a mirror on, on minimum specs in VR
It's not a good argument though. "I will have a bit of lag, so we might as well give up on optimization and lag out those with worse hardware"
^^^^^
lol mirror shouldn't drop you from 90 unless it's a trash world of course
It was probably meant as a joke though
Box should be well optimised even with a mirror.
It's not
Really?
Ever played on a GTX 970?
No
It's just too many pixels for the poor thing, lol
So, the box isn't an optimized place? @rigid crescent
The box does nto allow the game to /not/ render things
It prevents avatar culling?
Adding a cube in the middle would make it instantly more optimized
Just so that you wont see everyone all the time
There's significantly more optimized maps that aren't a literal cube
