ok, which one of the mods swapped #animation and #3d-modeling channels?
are we gonna have to fight?
fight fight fight

I guess I cant be enthusiastic about it
theyre lucky im about to shower
but everyone knows animation is supposed to be above 3d modeling, thought you could pull a fast one on us
Smh
smh my head, im watching you guys π
Yeah, I'm with n8, I swear to god I'll tenderly touch your shoulder if you do not change them back post haste
hey so does anyone get this weird problem where your avatar bends their needs inward towards each other
like when i crotch the knees start to bend to each other causing some weird leg issues
I think there are multiple causes, but one of them could be the initial bend from tpose, so the legs should be bent a little more in a natural direction
hi guys, help me please, how to use graphic tablet on vrchat for pressentation room :c
i keep getting the help somthings wrong
screen
and all the worlds are no image
?
hello?
so since Oculus said that future versions of the products they build (like Oculus Rift S) will be compatible with the current content on the Oculus platform
so as far as i know. Oculus Rift S might support VRChat on the Oculus platform once Rift S release
i keep getting the help somthings wrong
screen
and all the worlds are no image
I gotta agree Maps,Images,Friends images stay the same if you press on your friend and click another it stays the same
;l
Graphic tablet on vrc?
Also holy shit Dani, chill you copy pasted the same sentence across like 4 channels
@topaz lynx As long as its a PC VR It will support all current content. things like the Go and quest wont though.
@umbral reef unless the developer ports it to the Quest
but if it does come to the Quest. i got a little idea that might be helpful for Quest users
Yea no it wont happen because of how phone tech works and how insanely strict rules are for games on the quest
If quest runs on an arm processor than, yikes
quest runs on a snapdragon 835
which is a top of the line smartphone soc.. 2 years ago
are you guys saying you don't want VRChat on Oculus Quest?
Doesn't make sense.
it does make sense
No
No
Oculus Quest won't be able to run VRChat well, as it is a standalone headset, and not dependent on the PC
and you're saying you don't want it on Oculus Quest
It doesn't even support most of the things we need
It'd be great on mobile, but it doesn't work
Mobile stuff would need so many strict limitations
Low poly counts. Small textures. Very limited shaders.
You definitely do not want it to be there.
The absolute awful performance aside. It just wouldn't work.
if the quest can run a CPU-heavy title like VRC to the same effect as a common i5, then vrchat will be great on it.
but, because everyone here knows it probably won't....
I couldn't see that happening
like does VRChat on a flagship mobile phone make sense to you
Most of the smartphones on the market run octa-core processors, and VRChat, as far as I know of, doesn't utilize multiple cores well.
mhm
And, to reduce heat, as none of the smartphones I know of have active cooling
So yeah, unless these issues can be worked out, I don't see hardcore VR titles become an addition to Phone VR anytime soon
Hmm... Is there a way to limit the amount of RAM VRChat uses? It keeps filling up to around 9-10GB, which makes my OBS stop recording
unfortunately nvidia pulled tegra out of the mobile soc space and is focusing it for use on embedded AI applications
the x2 is in magic leap tho
the switch uses the tegra x1 which is like 3-4 generations old now?
x1 is maxwell
"mobile soc" doesn't mean much, like.. a cpu is a cpu is a cpu. the work being done on a tegra xavier isn't that different from a x1 or x2.
but also GTC is this weekend, we'll probably hear something interesting
the more recent tegra soc's dont exactly have the thermals that would allow it to fit into a mobile phone form factor though
though i guess with a standalone vr headset theres more leeway in that regard
mhm
like i said though, magic leap is using one release back, the pascal era one
it's in the space
just a matter of if nvidia wants to add a SKU to fit VR uses
Ain't Magic Leap One AR glasses?
ye
which makes it extremely CPU heavy depending on how they accomplish world-space tracking
I assumed the tracking bits are done by dedicated asics
asics in startups in 2019
oh well i guess tegra is suited for that kind of workloads
meanwhile my office has a nvidia jetson tx2 module just sitting on the desk not being used at all but my boss likes having it there because it looks pretty
π€¦
pretty jetsons
Jetson Tx2?
its for embedded machine learning stuffs
(but it's really just an arm-based single board computer that can do anything you tell it to, just like my titans are "for AI use only")
"not for gaming"
oh yeah jetson nano, we completely missed it
hey im wondering generally what people think about this. just looking for opinions. i haven't totally formed one myself, but i am curious about what this would limit. does this mean that you cannot have any sort of paid private event on vrc? does it mean that you cannot have access to a private discord as a patron reward if the discord has access to a private world? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/519039794504925186/558215242857840640/unknown.png
what does this mean for people who accept any form of money and do business in a private world?
and moreover should people not be allowed to monetize their content on vrc?
I believe this means you are not allowed to "gatekeep" access to vrchat content, be it access to a private world and what not through monetary compensation? As long as that content exists on vrchat itself.
https://vrchat.com/legal/ under section 9
sell or otherwise transfer the access granted under this EULA or any Materials (as defined below) or any right or ability to view, access, or use any Material; or
Best would also to be just email them about it
We are not lawyers at all in here and us reading the ToS wrongly might ruin things for you.
i don't know anyone that has gotten a response from emailing them
From my own experience the better your own email the higher odds they will actually care and reply
If you send a 'Sup, help me. How does all of your ToS work?'
They will not take the time to help you :x
It has to be a detailed description of what you are having concerns about
yo random question are video screens working in vrchat rn?
Depends if your stuff is up to date
there hasnt been an update in the past 3 hours has there?
There hasnt.
you might just need to restart your game
hmm ok will try that
yeah that fixed it thanks! me and a friend both had the same problem so i thought something was up haha
un un
Yo does anyone use the piano simulator world?
anyone good with world creation in chat at the moment ?
No
If anyone wants it, I'm making a script for Lifelight from Smash Ultimate
I actually know how to play it in vrchat
hmmm, I might have sussed it myself, so, was worth a try
@bright widget is that the one that lives in London and used to talk to me in vrchat 3 years ago or a totally different Kirito ?
Wow they actually are heree
But is it the Kirito, of Kirito's Water fame?
dunno, but, I used to know a Kirito who was really into Dr Who and was at the 2nd Birthday Party, I used to talk to them a lot, but, they haven't been in vrchat for a while
I am Kirito but not the one that you're talking about. That guy is not on vrchat anymore.
Wha.. what happened?
H3ll0
Me im 3rr0r s9ns

com0 j0g9 vr chat
I'm a bit dissapointed to see that some people on vrchat can't have fun and are doing bannable stuff to destroy other people experience and computer. That's not motivating those who try to be nice and makes vrchat a funniest game. Of course, in private worlds people shouldn't have trouble but it's always nice to meet new people in public world to entertain their experience (with or without) vr. It's simply my thought.
Eu sou Br π
One guy blocked me cause I had renai circulation playing in the background
Thing was, I put my microphone next to my phone which was playing it
He tought I was trying to be funny
Guys got a quick question how much would the average cost of a custom character be
@boreal peak For simply rigging an existing model 20-70$USD, for scratch your looking at upwards of $400
You can check #community-servers-old VRC Traders
Ok thanks wow pretty expensive @covert linden but thanks
Yeah they charge a lot...
That sounds annoying as hell, playing music through your mic. I'd block you too
same tbh or at least a hard mute
try getting blocked for your phone ringing and involving irl shit
oof
Wow, if someone blocked you because your phone rang then they sound petty as fuck.
Assuming you did mute yourself before you went to answer it. :B
had that happen 2 weeks ago and found out my cousin had a miscarriage π¦
it was in my world, so i kicked him out of the room
solid
worst is people who join and block/unblock spam
Sometimes, phones can go into the mic. Like, everybody hears a loud sound whenever you get a text message
ive never had that
& the block and unblock
My phones always on silent though so I dont have problems
You should inform people if that happens though, rather than kicking them. They might not know (after all it's a weird and kind of rare thing)
the reasoning is that is keeps downloading the avatar till the game crashes
world owner rules: block the owner. expect to get kicked out
People can DDOS others by repeatedly blocking and unblocking them?
Hey
Yeah, it's essentially a form of ddos
Its appearntly really easy to get someones address like, where theyre from. My ip is in toronto, but they found my exact city last night
They should address it somehow. Maybe keep blocked avatars in memory or something
"Hey Ashs"
"Hihi"
"Youre in Canada?"
"Yes"
"Ontario"
"Yess!"
"City here"
"..what"
And has anyone completed it?
All they can get is your city. It's the limit of accoracy unless they Google it and find a server you own or some hidden logs I guess.
It's an exploit in steams network or something like that, not much you can do
Appearntly its super easy to pinpoint location. He was doing this because someone ddos'd him and he was trying to figure out how easy it was, but without the ddosing part
Can anyone answer me?
no
Damnit
no
if we completed it we'd say yes lol otherwise no
I was saying no to your question btw not my ability to answer it
My next question
Sooooo
You know how people made a horror investigation group on roblox
Aka roblox myth's
no\
WEEEELL
It's debatable as fuck how accurate an IP correlates to a physical location.
Mine gets my general area (down to about a 15 mile radius) but... how the fuck is anyone going to find my exact address in that? There's a lot of houses in that area.
I was thinking maybe some group of people should make a horror map investigation group for vrchat
Or maybe I could
Scooby Doo but in vr
Technically
Well Gallium Im less worried about them knowing like my house, like I mean tthey got my city which isnt in my ip, so it was odd, But the fact that supposedly you can ddos like that
I could care less if people discover my city
I think it's an interesting idea
i think they do it to scare people
Well yeah, your IP is essential to basic internet functionality. If you take steps to block your IP being visible nobody can make connections to you
like "i know where you live. better stop" stuffs
No some people genuienly get ddos'd thats why this guy told me, he said to start usnig a vpn, so I dont get ddos'd
A lot of it is just fearmongering and bullshit
Nobody has ever been like ik where you live lol, it's ddos and threats of such. This guy got ddos'd so he was trying to help me, he was a pretty cool dude
if someone cared, they would be at your house for a bad reason
like selling real estate
They cant get to my house with my ip lol
They can ddos me easier than coming to visit me
only way they could is through social media
They can easily ddos you, me, anyone who doesnt use a vpn
But they will have a way harder time visiting me. Even if they find my exact address using pure magic, Do they wanna drive all the way down and risk literally going to jail for stalkign?
And if you get ddosed you turn off your router and boom! Ezpz new Ip depending on your ISP
Oh thats interesting
If they're DDOSing you and you have a dynamic IP, yeah, just reset your router and you're good.
Most home connections have dynamic IPs
And else you call them up, explain someone is ddosing you and odds are they will change your IP while on the call and often even give ddos protection for free or dirt cheap
easiest if its still the same, contact ISP for a new one
I'm not worried personally because I dont go to worlds often
I was just being told how easy it is
By the guy who shocked me with my city
I dont care it's just when I looked up my ip its toronto not my city, so It caught me off gaurd
It's a shock when you don't know that being able to do this is normal and honestly, really basic stuff.
Coupled with the misinformation that gets spread like wildfire around here. >:C
I knew that it was possible I just didnt know my ip somehow is more accurate now, but at the same time like if they wanna come ive got some cookies for them
This ip tracker I just used is wrong it says im from alanta in the US xD... oh waait im using a vpn atm duh
No need for that when im almost twice the age of the kids doing those things
but still my vpn is canada servers soo
Also it's rare they're actually performing a DDOS as that requires quite a lot of resources, as the name suggests.
Distributed Denial Of Service attack
If it's just one system blasting junk data at another then it's just a DOS
Ddos'es are fairly infective depending your ISP also
Yeah, I think people do it to selective people
For like reasons
I dont think it'd be done to me generally, unless theyre doing it for fun to the first person they see
No I mean, a DDOS is where more than a single computer sends junk data to a single target. Hence the Distributed, the attack origin is distributed across multiple systems with a single target.
ooooh
These can be expensive because you need control over several different computers distributed across the internet.
It takes loads of different network connections (Not the same PC's as thats all on the same network) to pull one off.
And you need to send more data towards someone then they can handle. And that aint easy or cheap
A DOS attack is if I (an individual) was flooding your (also an individual) network with junk data to fill up resources.
4 people cant ddos someone... It takes 100's of machines to do something.
It takes 1000's to do an actual attack...
Technically 4 people is a DDOS, just a very small (and probably innefectual) one.
i am wondering as well if they fixed the anti-kick exploit going around?
And a big factor as to why is because ISP's and the tech they use are able to handle these attacks better and better.
Man i wish my face wasnt burning else id hop right into VRC now :c
Been a fair while since i played
You can hop into VRC, just desktop. π
^
That aint fun π
for me, just been crunch compressing every texture
I can just as good play other games then and be social
about to head to bed
Once I played VRChat in VR going back to desktop just felt weird and wrong somehow
Ha, using it in desktop after over a year of fullbody use is horrifying
sometimes I use desktop when I'm too lazy to put my vr on
Lots of script kiddies claiming they have that steam exploit that allow them to get your IP, hmm
just play VRChat in steam offline mode if youre worried
Oh no, you have my ip, what will I ever do, pls dont hacc me
Kids in this game are so toxic & have no idea what they are doing, wew
Same ones using that supposed exploit would be the ones to see 127.0.0.1 & think its your IP, & threaten to dos you
π«
gib headpat now or i ping 127.0.0.1 to death
ill ddos 127.0.0.1 to death just dont reset your router or use a vpn >:c
Best VR adult NSFW games? DM them
@ruby needle reported to the headpat cops
Better clear that browser history buddy
oh shit. Gotta go
Any of you good with titles and tags on the YouTubs? I have a 30 minute vlog/anti-drug ad that im slightly proud of but i dont think "VRChat is my Anti-Drug" is trending. lol
Just the drugs topic will put you into worse search results and tags won't save that.
Even if it's anti (controversial yt topic) it's being shot down more then normal content.
Yeah, I figured. It doesn't help that vegeta was handing out senzu beans in the video. Definitely getting my video taken down.
Big odds it's just going to be demonitized.
im not monetized. Sometimes I wonder how much I'd change my channel if I could just SEE that it was being demonetized.
You can be demonitized without being monitized in a sense, because like, it basically puts claims on it that youc annot no matter what make money
its on most of my videos as an anime editor, but im not monitizied
where do you see it?
Video manager
I hate this new studio.
me 2 I forgot how to navigate it
@vocal shard "Claiming" is funny. The newest modified clients going around actually read out IP's because the game has p2p networking.
anyway theyll say copyright claim, which would mean demonitized. its not as strict as if you were making money, as it'd be a little circle thats yellow
I used to have a monitized YouTube channel, but I don't meet the new requirements.
Really low usage usually. But once upon a time I made a video that got millions of hits π
I have a monitized channel but it isnt monitized, like its setup, for when I do start posting my movie and trailers and such
Please tell me exactly what the exploit uses @vocal shard
but again the requirements
same for me. Slowly making my way back up. lmao.
You seem to know a lot, enlighten me wise one
@vocal shard Its not a real exploit, it just logs the photon networking going on in the background. Every instance has a master that handles all the p2p networking. You can use that master to get the IP Adresses of all connected users and the associated usernames.
If you dont believe me i can ask my friend for video proof, there was a kid streaming it and they downloaded a part of the VOD.
That's something that's at least been somewhat known. A friend used to grab IPs for fun and said the same thing, though this was early 2018 so i'm sure it's come farther since then
Yeah they built in Debuggers in modified clients now so they dont even have to tinker around with tools anymore.
I can send you the screengrab too.
Using regular vr after fullbody is not horrifying but maybe about the same as using desktop after vr π¦ I miss my legs
Hey Hey What's up guys
Dangit my internet keeps lagging me out
@tulip rose wassup
Wassupppp
At work kicking butt
Would like someone to make an avatar oof
pay
pay lots a cash money
@tulip rose depends on what you want, if you want it from scratch, pay someone. If you have a model already, you can try to upload it(can be pretty annoying)
or you look around, maybe someone already made something like the one you want
i just want cool gestures @regal furnace
well, then you can either make your own or find some online. you can put them on any avatar you want
but you need the unity files to add them
and what kind of gestures? hand gestures like a sword or complete animations like dances?
I'm always a little wary when someone comes in here with a "can you do this for me?" attitude. But also willing to help a bit. Geez, I have some kid asking every day for stuff like that in PM. π
Lots of idea people wanting me to make games for them. And they own it because it was their idea of course.
I always try to help others, even after most people get annoyed because it is the 100th time someone asks
Yup! And that's a pretty nice thing to do. It's easy to get discouraged when the askers don't seem to be trying but sometimes they really don't know where to start.
i like helping others even though i need help quite oftenπ
^I would think that is a good reason to help others.
When you need help but nobody answers, and then they need help from you. That usually means you are getting into the deep shit that nobody ever touches anyways. It's equal parts good and bad.
I like your reasoning izuna
Good because you know you are learning stuff people will never fully understand without the knowledge you have acquired up until that point. But bad because nobody will ever help you. π
ill always find a way around, if nothing helps, i make a break and clear my mind. then mostly someone might know it or i get it myself
I started playing about 3 years back and some guy was able to fly a drone off of his avatar with a controller.
Doesn't work anymore, but he was mad skilled.
I kinda wanna find a way to do it
and that knowledge i earned, i share with others and hope they understand it and may be able to help others with the same problem
Guys!
Hihi
I got my GPU
can somebody play vr chat
anyone else having problems in unity?
i have
what problems?
xd
you should define what kind of problems.
So Some Dude w/ Full Body Started Testing His Music Apps In VR While Playing Vrchat In Open Mic Night And It Played In Game, So I Came Along And Started Dancing. I Invited All My Friends To Join Me And We All Just Stood There In A Public OMN, Dancing. When He Was Done He Turned Around To See 8 People Dancing To His Music, He Turned It Off When He Was Done. Then We All Started Screaming At Him To Leave It On.
I legit am unable to read that because of how you type >.>
Legit makes me pause every word
Hey
Hello
hey
It's really big server isn't it ?There are lots of people around world. I liked it
Liked?
I haven't been on vrchat in way too long, my home and avatar world are both gone DD:
oof
oof
woof
woof
vuf
@shell dagger I think some updates made it so some of the assets that used to work need to be fixed / re-validated. Some of the creators might not even be around anymore.
During loading screens and when menu is open, I see a white tracker ball in he origin of my playspace. It looks like the balls you see in FBt but I have no extra devices active
Whatβs going on?
my loading screen straight up doesnt appear
@tawny ruin I don't know if you've tried but there are troubleshooting steps both on the VRChat site and in #user-support-old
can anyone help with triggers for worlds
#world-development if nobody answer then idk
some one call me plz
y
Try not to post the same comment across multiple channels please?
ok
There is a test world in the SDK with all the triggers set up
Playlists of the music from Saint Patrickβs at The Pug - 2019 are now up on the website.
Ay thats neat
Interesting music choices..
hey
was much better than the default song always playing
pug song is just annoying after hearing it constantly
Hoii
@vocal shard Why. Are. You. Talking. Like. This.
Just A Habit I Picked Up Somehow
Itβs. A. Really. Bad. Habit.
doesn't bother me
oi oi
Hmm, Echo was asking about triggers for worlds. There's a demo of all of the common triggers right in the VRC SDK. Or was that not it?
avatar commissions are dwindling i think
i see a lot more custom avatars now
than back in 2017 lol
probably because people are learning and realizing it isn't that hard to work on their own stuff
Commissions for sure, the hype of the game has died down, plus the rates are hella expensive
That as well
yeah, back in 2017 i only knew how to upload avatars without passing them through cats (i think it didnt exist back then?), i would rig them through mixamo lol
had no blinking nor facial expressions, and it was really low-poly
when i started playing in late 2018, uploading avatars became much easier to understand, since there were lots of tutorials now, and blender cats had been released, which made things much easier.
remembering the days of reparenting bones manually before cats

Bless that addon
It's best to deny making ERP avatars for them.. because in making ERP avatars, you may be ironically supporting them
"Never deny a request"
lists tons they deny
cats added stuff to make it simpler to merge avatars or somethin rite
I found my skeletons were mostly right to start with but I learned to rig humanoids for Unity using Darrin Lyle's tutorials.
Merge avatars? @rain isle
But CATS was nice for cleaning things up and merging my materials.
like combining mmd parts
No, Not if theyre not already attached
What's ERP?
Ive been doing that via weighpainting
@heavy dawn google it, its against the rules to talk about xD
Enterprise resource planning? haha
I'm just going to assume it's creep...ok
I figured out the acronym now. yawn
I am learning all kinds of things tonight. π
I looked up Kemono Friends and it's literally just a kids show and on the surface that seems like: okay people just want cute characters, but assuming they want to do crude things with those characters... yeah I understand not wanting to do it. Or if it's like way too much of it and it's boring.
I've had a strange request or two but I have just said I don't want to do them.
I made an anti-drug campaign video in VRChat and I'm trying to find trending keywords to use in my title that relate to VRchat in some way.. for some reason I don't think Anti-Drug PSA has been trending since the 90s.
Do you guys know a room where i can pick an avatar able to draw?
@iron thunder bc drugs are becoming the norm. Its ass.
have you tried restarting the game completely? and if you are in vr, exiting vr completely and restarting it? I had a rare issue once where it was open vr that was shitting itself and restarting vr completely fixed my framerate issue
Hey wasn't there a Cards Against Humanity world yesterday? What happened to it?
Aw :(
Oof.. they shoulda had it coming considering the contents of those cards and the name itself
Hullo hullo. one quick question guys. where do i bring a Report? from one user crashing people in vrchat ?
Be sure that your report is descriptive and contains accurate background information of what happened
if is like. Doubtly? Since i clipped from Zen's stream and maybe certain user was
They'll look into it if it's serious enough
well, i just got a report that, everyone in the world crashed uhh
I mean it's a real game, I'm sad to see it go so soon
@magic parcel Well, that should also go in the report you'll be making
Just remember to read the instructions at #moderation-reports
ok, ye i wanna be very sure for this stuff. oh dang it. Tyvm btw, very appreciated. Good day-evening-night.

Hey, I'm still quite new to VR chat, I don't have alot of friends...I'm here to try and make some, I play in Central Standard time, anyone who wants to be friends just say hai, my name in game is TTV_Wolf_Immortal. Add me if you would like to be friends.
Most kindergardinish thing I've every done right there
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
You can add me if you want Meeran and Wolf_immortal. My name in game is "Maru!"
Will do soon. Thanks!
we need a mod in the box world, someone keeps teleporting everyone to the enter
still trying to figure out who is doing it
How do you suggest features to VRChat? I have a great safety setting idea, a feature that can block all videos from being played/downloaded if enabled in settings.. Some of the worlds having several videos that have to download in the background is very lag heavy.
Hoii
@covert linden Just want to let you know that cats has "Merge Armatures" and "Attach Mesh", which let you easily add parts to a model
@ocean bramble That doesnt add something like, weigh paint it to the model though as far as im aware
and pls @ me again if im wrong man I spent 9 hours on a haruhi model for nothing, but like, pretty sure especially with shirts..
@covert linden "Merge Armatures" takes the weight from the existing bones and adds them and "Attach Mesh" fully weightpaints the selected mesh to the selected bone
It also gives you an extra bone to move that new mesh around
Are the servers laggy or the game?
The games been lagging today.
Nice bullshit the one of the dynamic bones btw
How come?
where can I ask questions about VR chat?
Im wondering some stuff about VR
like what's the cheapest I can get away with in terms of getting a VR headset + controllers?
and do I need a phone? I have one, but it's very old and slow
samsung galaxy s5 mini, can't even run things like cookie clickers 2 on it without lagging a lot
feel free to ping me if anyone has an answer (or wants to redirect me to another channel)
yey i have finaly found the WHITE TIGER!!!
@reef creek I encourage you to save up for a HTC Vive if you want something quality that you can scale if you wish to have a more immersive VR experience. If you truly only want cheap head and hand tracking, Windows Mixed Reality Headsets are a cheap alternative for you. As far as needing a phone, you do not require one for virtual reality (when it comes to HTC Vive or WMR headsets).
@silk tartan if the user is being toxic, mute or block them
dont start placing names as it always starts a witchhunt or people harassing the user
@reef creek No problem. I am sure someone somewhere has figured out a way to run VR hand controllers without a VR headset for whatever reason but, normally, the headset or tracking stations track hand controllers in space. If you're interested in learning more about WMR, check out these links! https://www.pcgamer.com/the-most-affordable-ways-to-get-into-vr-this-holiday-season/ https://www.reddit.com/r/WindowsMR/comments/7tpe7s/a_video_i_made_for_anyone_curious_about_how_well/
It is possible but its really not worth it
Tysm π I enjoy vr chat on PC a lot, but I thought it'd be a lot more fun with VR controls
@reef creek It is especially a lot more fun when you are capable of placing yourself into the world when behind a virtual reality headset. The depth of the world around you is indescribable and things look as big or as small to you as your in-game avatar is. It is an immersive experience that I highly recommend, especially if you're already having fun and enjoying yourself behind a desktop monitor.
sounds awesome π
thing is I recently already put a lot of money into buying a good desktop PC
@reef creek Be responsible and don't make any sudden expensive purchases! VR isn't going anywhere and the more time is given to the industry the more awesome features you'll start seeing. When you're ready, do it!
@open bear that desktop was an investment, I owned a second-hand laptop that couldn't even run 2 browser tabs at once
and for developing I hated lagging
I had been saving up for it for a while
@reef creek I am glad to hear that you are in a better place now that you've got a more optimal computer to use daily. :) Enjoy it!
ty xd
people clone avatars from people when they have the option turned off, how do they do that?
hack clients lol
Modded clients or glitches
Even when you have it disabled, often you can still click it anyway
There's always a "Go!" option that will pop up at the very least
You can probably still go home from there too
Why would that be an issue though? @brisk bone
Worse yet, they can just drop portals to private worlds and you won't get the labs confirmation at all.
If you're worried about being dropped into a crash world
What's the difference between VRChat and Garry's Mod?
We also have anime player models in Garry's Mod right?
gmod is a lot less limited on user created content, gmod is based on source, gmod doesnt support vr.
true
gmod is not a social game but rather a game with many different gamemodes.
people usually use sfm for that instead of gmod
true
People can either use SFM or Gmod for animations
SFM is for smooth 3d animation
while Gmod is for stop-motion
am I right?
People basically quit using gmod for anything animation wise cause sfm supports the same stop motion techniques
but yeah people used gmod for stop motion for the longest time
DasBoSchitt would be the best example of someone using GMod to its best capability
What about kitty0706?
f
R.I.P he was a good man.
rip kitty
Rest his soul, even BoSchitt himself paid his respects to him
If he didn't lose to cancer, he would have migrated from Gmod to SFM and become more successful with his SFM animations.
Possibly gaining a million subscribers.
is it just me or is unity 2017, the one we're using absolutely fucking shit at baking
Damn it's been 7 years since team fabulous 2
Dunno, I dont bake cookies often
2 things that balanced my triggeredness ffs
probably coz ur lazy
and team fabulous 2 is awesome
oh here we go unity m,aking my lightmaps
hope it comes back to life lmao
the UI completely breaks but keeps baking like normal, fuck this is there another way to bake i hate this standard crap i cant deal anymore
can i toss my pc in an oven will that work
Speaking of GMod. DasBoSchitt's first, second, and third episodes of Gmod Idiot Box just hit 10 years already..
stop making me feel old DX
Oof.. forgot this wasn't #general-media
naughty chat mod
im not laazy I just dont make maps
ok it fucked everything, i need another way of doign this man
π¦πΆ

DasBoSchitt made a vid saying he will start youtubing, still ded tho :^(
when are they gonna fix that freezing menu bug that freezes u on spot when exiting the menu
yo!
super bored, anyone wanna play vrchat??
i need help my game wont load into any world but the broken one
@hallow zealot what exactly is happening?
Big odds it was networking problems then
ah ok cool
If it happens often again you can try restarting your router fully.
^
Also Jerome did you change your PfP?
yeah i change it fairly often
if i find a neat gif i usually change it
sometimes also for running gags in my community
I have that in a gif but I cant use gifs here

@floral quiver ohh! I fought I am the only one with that problem! xD
Just a question, what does Heat mean when checking on a world?
Where can i download this game
Steam is one place you can download it. Or the oculus client
Sleepy...
Why did the servers fall? someone knows?
What
It's already gone for the oculus go right now
Did you stay up all night in the beta @vast tulip
!online
There are 7405 users in VRChat currently
Where's the emotes 
omg, I got my red face that I put on my headset
Sometimes I get a red ring around my eyes from the headset.
that happens every time I wear mine. Though it's mostly because when I play VRChat is for several hours at a time
UPROARIOUS APPLAUSE Dynamic bone limits? Cool!
yup I'm pretty excited about that
β
Btw tupper- Gotta give props on the blog posts.
Includes all info someone should want, from what dbones are and why they are bad to why you guys didnt do stuff
is tupper wishing death upon us? I'm ready boi
Can also be a scream for aid π
Is this a curse?
the infamous curse of tupper
are there any worlds other than avatar testing to see the polys on an avatar
the fllashlights arent working on me
Aww man this is fun
I am having a good time
what u doin
oh nvm guess its my shader
Ven if the lights arenβt working on you your render queue might be too high and you over render the lights
I am working on making my own satanic temple/chillout world
Nice^
That seems.. odd.
Havent Texted In This Cat In A Long Time..
What you never want a brutal demonic lair to brood and worship the outer gods?
VR chat needs more SaTaN
@grim canopy How come?
Working On Worlds lol
Ah, okay.
@vocal shard Look Im Typing In VRCHAT Discord
Lol 
π
I Might Give Up Making Worlds & Avatars For A While Might Talk in here with my pals 
Say.. there's been some changes. Ever noticed our names are in purple?
Elire Lucky, I Never On To Text xD
cirno, you decent experinced with blender and unity? If so can i ask you something in dm if that's ok?
I Mean I Like helping People, just never on Discord Enough.. So Is Al Ya Know
@queen mango how to gain trust ? I'm green but an old player?
sure
@gilded bronze There may be some factors holding you back, like people blocking or muting you..
However, as standard, just keep having fun in worlds, especially game worlds.
What do you mean especially game worlds?
If a visitor blocks you would you lose the same amount of trust when a trusted user blocks you?
But you just need to play more. Make new friends, get active playtime (cant be AFK) and be social.
As Elire said things like blocking or reports can work against you so dont go around trolling or annoying users.
I don't think he's doing that.. he may have had people block or mute him for the hell of it.
Or just has not been playing the game actively
I have only 300 hours gameplay π¦
Oh, that could be one part.
How much time on average do you play VRChat every day?
very little
I meant after the trust system got implemented Elire
@queen mango like 6-8 hours
Just try making new friends and try to not get reported/blocked then.
Afking also does not help
lol I have over 100 friends
I should make a spell circle where when you click the right candles in the right order it summons avatars
I mean you can turn on wireframe in Unity editor
That wireframe shader doesn't play with all shaders well
Welcome
yeah me 2
Has anyone done that Houses in Nightmare chapter 1 map? My friends are stuck lol. We got the numbers 3 3 and 5 but we can't figure the rest out
nvm we got it lol
ok question i want to copy and paste a youtube url into vr chat i have the oculus rift, i am able to copy in virtual desktop but it wont let me paste in the url spot ingame what am i doing wrong
anyone else having trouble logging in?
you arent the only one
Tupper im gonna sneeeze on yooou
is it wrong to upload a video of a drunk guy in full body vr crumpled on the floor slurring the words "H-help me" as he looks up at me?
You should probably ask that persons permission first
yeah. I think im just deleting this. lol
What worked for me to login was navigating to vrchat.exe and launching it as administrator
hey, just wanted to ask what you exactly need to play vrchat
Just a normal pc if you want to play desktop mode. If you want to play vr, you will need a powerful PC and a vr headset
is there any way to fix this stupid bug that i dont get any kind of invites ingame?
like literally, i get nothing
and its ALWAYS happening on the weekends....as if their servers just cant handle vrc anymore
same
i don't get any invites either.. but i'm not sure if it's because it's broken or because nobody's inviting me places.
the invite feature is kinda broken rn
any time i try to join my friends from an inv it just kinda sits on the dl screen
The Google Stadia, would something like VRChat, be able to hop on such cloud gaming service from a technical perspective? It would solve a lot problems VRChat currently have.
Mhh, i can't play VRC since days cuz nothing is loading. Whats wrong?
Have you tried restarting your game?
No, actually not. Who would think of restarting the game?

Better synchronization, Standardized performance to target, No more connectivity issues (assuming you have good connection with google), Voice transmissions more efficiently, Large worlds and avatars, and so on
And jump on with whatever devices whenever, whereever.
I would wait to see if itβs a bit to good to be true
Considering u will have to pay per month and I doubt the selection of games will be there atleast at first
Hmm, fair enough.
And there are already services like stadia out now that arenβt really mainstream
Yes, I actually tried one, though only with a Japanese MMO, because it's free to use.
The experience was okay, though compare to a normal fully downloaded client setup, more input delay are introduced.
Hmm, think about it, if more input delay are introduced to a VR experience, it would be horrible, is't it?
Hello there~
Why is it if a damn loli crawls on me and I donβt run away like I have autism im the weird one...
Stay off me lol
Isn't it just people joking around? The whole fbi thing is a meme
I usually bust out the fbi
I just wish I wasnβt gettin trolled 1000% of the time
Canβt have a convo without there being that guy
Makin things weird hahaha
Just out-weird him
Lick his camera view point. If he still stays after that, I guess that means you lose
Caffeine...it was a girl π
She gave me the cooties and then called me weird
Halp
Aw man they are going to kill it next update
So many awesome improvements- Im more hyped for websocket changes then for chairs π
And the dbone stuff is also really nice
Are you sure? Some can change their voice pretty well π
But I see, that sounds like fun
Probably was a trap...
I would kind of doubt that..
π€
Yo is that the real Kuro
Psyco pass is a good anime @mellow pike

Anybody hear about crashers putting trojans on theirt avatars and attacking known and trusted users and streamers?
if only it were true
(not that i want it to be, just.. would be a lot more interesting if it was)
There's always fake rumors in this game, and so far they have all been bullshit
And for the legit things, they have been removed or disabled very fast
imagine believing everything you read
It could be true, it's just very unlikely
i am actually the queen of china
To being with, you'd need to explain how it works. How did he put a trojan into an avatar? How did he transfer it? How did he get the other client to execute it? It just doesn't make sense
If you can answer those questions, and it seems legit, please send a mail to the VRChat team though
look caff all you gotta do is just upload it to your avatar and it turns your entire house into a massive rave in the middle of spain
why there is a lot of rude ppl as a trusted user rank?
only idiots with bad behaivour
trolling or even some crashing u
how did they got that rank??
why do so many of the guys in this game have girl avatars
im genuinely confused by that
i mean i wont judge but still why not something like johnny cage
whats the purpose of pretending to be a girl
comedy?
trolling
or in some cases ye...comedy
making the other guy a gay.....
i find only idiots with trusted user rank
lots of them
they do not deserve trusted rank
thats true, but with known users some of them are snobs to those that arent known users which is kind of weird
Speedy- Because people dont report them with proof and because the moderation if fairly lacking and bad reports happen.
i mean, its just a rank what
hmph
And for Expired
There are also more female avatars that are easy to use then male avatars.
(Its harder to rig up Non MMD avatars (animeish avatars.) and the male mmd models look fairly bad)
everybody allmost says the same thing
some has values and some does not....
i cant have trusted user if i want.. and those mongols has.
i have almost 2k hours in vrchat and barerly got the known user
ah....im done with this subject.
Wait how long is the wait for the unity SDK model allowance
There is no set time to unlock it
But what would be the average wait time be?
i love to have genuine conversations on this game though, its really fun because the people are really easy to talk to once you start talking to them
It's fun for chatting and jokes
Can vary from 8 hours to 80 hours
thx
@ oclac, that does make sense now that i think about it, there are already premade mmds as well ive seen
Yeah, either ALL of us or Johnny Cage, or we're all different customizable MMDs. I'd pick the latter.
There's only so many videogame characters (especially ones people actually want to be), and customizability is a cornerstone of VRChat since the day custom avatars were implemented
I find it really difficult to start talking in this game
Like in real life
I'm paralysed by fears of being judged even though most people I see seem to be nice
fake it
maybe you'll get over the fear if you just hop into the conversations.
I feel like most people wont judge you and its normal for people to not connect in some way so people parting ways is normal.
You just have a ton of conversations until you connect with someone and it grows from there.
for instance, I decided to talk to a creepy guy in a black robe in a dark alley and now I might be joining a cult (okay he said not to call it a cult). I would've never gotten the opportunity to join the c.. family.. if i didn't have the courage to talk to a random stranger.
You gotta take risk.
public instances tbh, are pretty much entirely risky
they aren't like they used to anymore
trust me i had that same feeling @vital rune
still didn't stop me where funs and random shit can happen
Does anyone know any good avatar worlds?
It's all personal opinion. Are you looking for any specific kinds of avatars?
@worthy cove
@median basalt I like Rusttv avatars a lot so any worlds which have ones like those or there's another one I can't remember the name of right now let me check
I am π havenβt been on in a year but Iβm back π€
My friend number is 3658 and my name is Spirit
Not sure what RustTV avatars look like
@median basalt I could dm you a screenshot?
https://imgur.com/a/ZQWxuO8 @median basalt
Iβm updating my comp
I'd suggest first the Toga World
Id suggest trying to join a more RP focused Vrchat community instead of the main discord
I sadly dont know one and the ones in #community-servers-old also dont extremely help
But the odds of you finding someone here is small
Why tf can't i unfavorite an avatar?!!!!!!!
They can be removed it might just take a fair while to update.
When i remove an avatar it still in the fav list so i cant add a new avatar in this list...
Gotta wait til it decides to delete itself basically
am i the only one that cant hear players but ingame music works fine?
Thats odd
Actually thats a problem I had once when my mic slightly disconnected snd no matter if I reconnected it, itd then just be the musiv still. @coarse sorrel
So try entering the game without heaphones use your systems volume
nah i found out when it happens to the first world i join in and when i join another world it works fine but when i join back in the first world it breaks again
Ah ok
Good day can somone assist the new Unity update is 2017.4.24f1 can i upgrate to it or not also the current one i, using is 2017.4.15f1 must i stay or update
Its .4.15f
so must not update
It wont work if you update
then why is my avatarts pink
Because your missing materials
so always the first world is the one to break
when i add flat lit toon to them
oh yeah extract materials from model in import
Your avatar being pink in unity is a problem of you not doing soemthing correctly not a bad update
You can ask in #avatars-2-general
i really love vrchat it has become my life and has helped me a lot with comunication skills ^w^
it really is amazing
Hey um guys... All usernames are taken?
Can't make an account for VRChat cause it says the usernames are all taken
Email support@vrchat.com about it so they can get notified by it.
I want my username to be OclacSfan
Im being bullied
L
Im looking for unique places to have a job in VRChat. I've been to Yandere school, a cafe, and I was a very bad political translator.
ANyone have any ideas for a map?
@iron thunder the mcdonalds
nah. Too obvious. lol
do it
@elfin ether Yea dont scare monger people without proof
Its legit imposible to do these things
Getting files on your computer is HARD
Exuciting these files is ever harder
Burning up a computer is legit not even posible...
Yeah sorry didn't know if it's true or not
People spread warning like this all the time. They always end up false. If there was a real security risk, it will be made known officially
Unless they provide proof or an explanation its a rumor made to fear monger people.
My experience though with this game I am iffy
There is a BIG jump between crashing your game and burning your computer
Just because small actions can be done does not mean imposible things cna happen ;p
Alright I'll take your word since I am bad at uploading models xp
A lot of this game works client side. The server tells your client what to render, what happens. This allows for things like crashes because it's something capable through the client. Sending a virus this way is not something that can be done as far as i know
XP k
I love they called it a Trogons (a bird) and not a Trojan (backdoorish thingy)
Are the vr chat servers down?
Look at the right side to VRCBot ;p
Plenty of users still online what means the server are still running fine
It not loading avatars and worlds
Restart your router
For all the people I know and some people in the public
If everyone is having that problem they can contract support@vrchat.com to inform them of a problem/get help.
Nvm we got into a Pug server
If anyone wants to meet up, we can!
Hmmm... maybe.
Any adults chilling , drinking hanging out anywhere? No narcissistic mirror parties
any chance of VRChat coming to PSVR?
I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you
I never said I believed it. But I would still rather not be attacked (by any means) for no reason.
Did you just try to ping everyone?
Lol rekt
pings everyone thinking it works
If you want people to play with, meet them in a public world.
π€
Ok, have fun ^^
Make sure to set up ur safety settings if you are new
No you see, you gotta go straight in with no safety
are the servers acting weird?
They were for me a second ago,
I have a question, how do y'all beat the heat in VRChat? Can't have my headset on for more than 5 minutes without getting uncomfortably toasty
is the table in VRChat for the default home suppose to be gone in the mirror?
goodbye world, im off to vegas. Wish me luck in the casinos
cant, vegas is rigged
the only winning move is not to play
i just wait for the old lady to waste all her money on a slot machine and lose, then i hop on and win big
lol
stick to the machines near the doors. They pay out more often
The most even bet you can get in a casino is betting straight red or black on roulette, and that's STILL below a 50/50 chance because 0 and 00 aren't red or black
you can clone public avatars if the users have that option enabled
for that you need to bring up the player menue and then select "Clone public avatar"
im still confused on how to get the trusted rank
cus i got a ton of friends and content uploaded
No known requirements, basically play til it happens.
Does the latest sdk have a poly count?
a limit? it's 70k. been that way since i think like december-ish
Yeah?
I've decided to try sleepimg in VRChat for the first time with friends being allowed to just join. Any tips?
Oh also. I have severe phantom touch too.
:P
frankly I don't know how anyone could sleep with that headset on
I know people have done it. I just have no clue how.
just gotta be tired enough π π― π π―
pillows r nice
Dude no.. Ain't discussions of ripping not allowed here?
It even says so in the #rules
quite a legal thing is so
Does anyone know how Bedroom Theatre works?
I actually got a migraine from stressing about talking in vrchat
It's still here
I'm fine with text for some reason
I don't get put on the spot
i wish i had a headset lmao, everyones doing cool stuff without me
I want to get one but I don't know if there are enough vr games to justify buying it or if it adds much to vrchat
I've always wanted an SAO like game
Why is it worth it
I don't know a single person who said it wasn't π
The alternative is probably clothes or something
Sure, if you're out of clothes, probably better to buy clothes
it's a question of priorities
Idk I dont see a game helping anxiety but I actually know many people who do improve because of vrchat, but thqt could be in desktop too
My biggest help to my anxiety was my job
adding a layer of realism/immersion would surely help
I'm fine with uni because the communal feeling is there
But you know with strangers it's harder
I'm afraid of showing myself as a person
I only want to talk about 'intellectual' stuff that distances me away from the conversation
Im afraid of going up to people as a person but in vrchat I am literally the most social in the group
Ya I'm fine with public speaking for example somewhat but not with personal discussion to strangers or to groups of people
It's strange
They ask me about my avatar and they want me to roleplay and I just panic
Ah thatll definately help over time if you do your best
Maybe it's because I feel like I need to have a prepared answer for everything
That paints me in a light that can't be judged or bullied
I think only 13 percent of the world has social anxiety?
I feel cursed like this
hey how do you select your region cuz my ping is pretty high idk why
Hmm.. I don't think you can select your region here in VRChat
As far as I know, it is only one server handling thousands of players
So any idea why my ping is pretty high (and no my internet is fine)
Well not just one server, there's several. Just geographically together as far as I know.
If you don't mind sharing, what is your ping and where are you located? (just the country is fine)
my ping is 100-1000 and rn i live near saudi arabia
how do I report someone that hacked me and my actual internet?
Hmm, if it's getting as high as 1000 something's definitely up.
I'm in the UK and get around 170 fairly consistently, I know some people towards the north-east end of europe and they don't get much higher than that.
@pseudo patio Check out #moderation-reports
aha thanks anyway though, ill just check i might come up with a solution
Sometimes a big file transfer (like steam updating games) in the background can cause ping spikes with vrchat
Hmm.. I see, in regards to the servers.
helo
I get 50-90 ping and im in canada
.
Why
downloads so slow
Hi
I'm having alot of trouble with vr chat
Not getting into maps easily, barely loading avatars, crashing, any first thoughts on why?
Please @ or dm me
I'm the same.3
You can try restarting your internet
Also if your using a wifi connection try going to a wired one
I'm using wired, it may be my graphics, I have a loading loop with big maps q
My graphics arent the best either a
Is the downloading of the files or when you spawn/pressed the go button?
As the first is mainly network related and the second is performance
That is VRC's server related, they might take long to stay and might show up later.
There is sadly nothing you can do right now about it but the upcoming update might help out.
ok
Whew
yea downloading maps take much longer idk why
Slow downloads isnβt really VRChats fault. Itβs either on your end or slow routing towards their servers.
a lot of times it's on your end (but why it's on your end is usually a confusing measure,) re-enabling your network device tends to fix it.
sometimes not tho
the thing is that i have 100mbps download i can play yt vids easy and i could load worlds faster yesterday
and today when i try to enter the pug it dl at 0.2mbps
only in vrchat
I was having that sort of issue tonight too, and it's only vrchat. other services still work at normal speed
also once I do get in, voice chat and moving around the world both work fine too, it's only the downloads and API stuff
how does one upload a avatar of a fbx from unity to vrchat?
just for 15 minutes I had everyone else's avatars on blue men lol
Currently really stuck on that since i plan to upload mecha porky to vrchat since he's a fbx model, but i need a screen descriptor or avatar descriptor
. . .
Avatar descriptor
If it doesnt have visemes setup for vrchat, just slap in blender and use CATS blender plugin to add them.
There are several tutorials on YouTube for setting up avatars
In a 5 star hotel in Vegas and I can't sleep. Mom has room temperature too high and my dad's snoring is loud af. I'd get my own room but I'm not paying $1000 for sleep
Its what I get for being the only child
Is this place alive?
That's just being spoiled though.
Ah, looks like it is.
There sure are a lot of hours in-between most messages though xP
Much more alive than the VRC Traders Disc though.
It has it ups and downs on activity
As NA starts to wake up, it will get more active again
hi everyone
My only concern is that there aren't people from Asia filling up the activity gap
Aside from me of course
Well unlike most discords there is no real reason to talk here unless you need support (or smaller things like finding players/getting opinions but other discords do that just as good if not better even).
wasn't active here that much since I'm very bad at starting conversations and have nothing to talk about
unless we want to go full dark lord marisa hour
what is dark lord marisa hour?
Ehrm.. that's something of a joke(?) in Touhou, which I haven't seen enough to make sense of..
How do people get cool animations and special actions for their avatars
All the avatar worlds usually don't have it
Loads upload there own avatars and make there own animations
How easy is it
Can someone uninitiated do it
The avatars are saturated with anime girls and I need something different
99.9% of the community who make avatars, edit them, make animations and ect started from 0 knowledge.
Youtube, google and forums and an insanely big source of information when it comes to these things.
I mean I'm satisfied enough with my avatars, not as much as I would want to but like 75 percent okay with it
Its ofcours also best to start off my just uploading an avatar.
Then learn how to optimize it.
Then edit materials/smaller things or even simple animations like weapons for example.
And from there on you can pretty much learn anything you want as you have the basics good
Do I have to shape the model itself from scratch
That is an option but the learning curve for that is really big.
Imo its best to start off with those anime models (MMD models) and learn the basics that way.
After a while you can learn how to do 3D modeling and its easier then to do
No. Many use premade mmd parts. That's why most are anime girls
Oh what's MMD
Miku Miku Dance. It's a 3d anime animation program
You can make whatever depending on your skills
Can I make Napoleon Crossing the Alps?
If you spend enough time on it? While also making a world.. Yea you can
I'll try uploading 1 avatar like you said
