Nah for me avatars look fine imho without shaders, I just need to see a body that's all.

faint skiff
#

Monday (or was it Tuesday?) was rough as hell though, reporting and blocking 8 or so people in less than 30 minutes for malicious avatars. Not sure why that day was so bad.

#

Then still getting crashed out by a fake portal.

#

@umbral reef What time would you say it's normally better to go on, to avoid the flood of desktop kid users?

umbral reef
#

Tbh, i had legit 2017 vibe fun during 2/3AM for my time (GMT+1)

snow wadi
#

Remember when you asked me why I don't even go to friends of guests instances? That's just one of the reasons.

faint skiff
#

@snow wadi Mmm. It's a shame 😦

#

@umbral reef Yeah. I've found 3am'ish seems fine GMT+1. The problem with that is that it's 3am and obviously not really viable if you have a job, lol.

snow wadi
#

I really do want to pop into public or even friends of guests but the community can be very toxic, sadly speaking.

upper chasm
#

I'm just having issues setting up animations

snow wadi
#

Well the team did mention trying to make public safe again, here's to hoping.

umbral reef
#

Well thats the worse problem yea- I got vacation RN and im home alone so its prime stupidly late night VR time

#

Its already safe.

rigid crescent
#

ive been in the same one for a few hrs now

upper chasm
#

is little robot girl

faint skiff
#

It's very much not safe, unless you're very lucky and/or have safety turned up to max.

snow wadi
#

@umbral reef Public is safe?

#

I hope that was a late april fools joke...

umbral reef
#

Well
I havent been crashed in ages

#

All i have to d was block some nsfw avatars and a few world shaders

#

But ow no, im making friends and have to block a person an hour
What an living nightmare 😨

rigid crescent
#

extremely safe

snow wadi
#

lmao

rigid crescent
#

just turn off animations

vocal shard
#

hello

rigid crescent
#

for non-friends

umbral reef
#

Havent even had that happen.

faint skiff
umbral reef
#

And then you block them

faint skiff
#

Except you can't see them, or your menu

#

And if you activate panic mode, you still don't know who it was.

snow wadi
#

I'll stick with my instances, thank you very much!

rigid crescent
#

maybe youre just unluckyy

snow wadi
#

"extremely safe"

#

Good one.

faint skiff
#

I mean I spend most of my time in busy public worlds, so I'm in the firing line more than most I would assume. But I do take offence to people saying it's safe. If someone was new to the game (and new to VR) then the eye/ear rape like that would be really jarring to them.

#

I should start documenting every single incident as a portfolio for anyone that says it's not an issue 😛

snow wadi
#

I've been playing VRC for a year and I've seen my fair share of shenanigans already.

rigid crescent
#

its an issue just onot a huge unavoidable one

faint skiff
#

Tangentially related question. When you screenshot with SteamVR, there's a delay before you hear the sound. Does the screenshot get taken when you press the button, or when you hear the sound?

wise perch
#

er.... I believe it's on the sound?

snow wadi
#

Usually when you hear the sound

faint skiff
#

Hmm, that's annoying then as that means there's a second or two delay.

snow wadi
#

I have AMD ReLive active so that keeps a recording session on my external NAS drive

#

It could also easily be done with the built in xbox app, that can record the last 2 hours.

upper chasm
#

I'm trying to find a good idle pose for her

faint skiff
#

Yeah, I could use shadowplay or OBS replay, but I'd like to avoid impacting performance if possible.

upper chasm
#

her arms go through her legs

snow wadi
#

If you want to avoid impacting performance use the xbox app

rough pulsar
#

People keep telling me shadowplay inpacts performance and I keep toggling it on and off and see no change whatsoever in my framerate

snow wadi
#

Ah that's what I miss about WMR, I could say "XBOX, Record that" and it records the last set time form the settings :<

#

Is that a Mr Gall?

faint skiff
#

@rough pulsar It's not a big impact, it's sub 10% at most, but as I'm often around 30fps in places like the pug, I'd rather not risk complete blackouts.

rough pulsar
#

For me it's not even less than 10%, it's just... not

snow wadi
#

@rough pulsar Hoi o/

rough pulsar
#

Same for the claim of the VRC desktop window size affecting performance, nothing.

faint skiff
#

I'll have to check it out again at some point. That does mean installing the aids that is Nvidia Geforce Experience and having to register/sign in

upper chasm
#

My question is how would i set up her cape to flap slightly

still lark
#

If the game was GPU bound it'll affect perf.

snow wadi
#

Actually Gall there IS something about window resizing and vrc o.o/

rough pulsar
#

I'm on a 3 year old system, i7 6820HK 4GHz, 8GB GTX 1080

snow wadi
#

@rough pulsar You got 5 min?

rough pulsar
#

Sure

snow wadi
#

No need to be in VR, desktop mode is enough

faint skiff
#

@upper chasm Dynamic bones, assuming the cape has bones, else it'll be weight painting then adding dynamic bones

snow wadi
#

I want to show you something really odd with reflection probes

upper chasm
#

it has bones yes

rough pulsar
#

Okay, gimme a bit to turn on the other PC

#

Vrc window size 100% effects performance for me on gtx 970. It’s night and day, unquestionable

#

Maximized window is like having a mirror existing at all times

#

Even worse if stream camera if active

faint skiff
#

What does the stream camera actually do?

languid beacon
#

Changes the desktop window from a view of your head to a view from the camera

#

Combined with a headset mirror window it lets you stream two different perspectives at once for OBS to format. Streamers use this a lot

faint skiff
#

Oh I see. As I can't see the desktop window, I'd never noticed.

languid beacon
#

You aren’t meant to see it. This is a feature only vr users can use (stream camera does not exist for desktop mode)

#

It’s so if you are streaming, the stream changes to a view from your camera

faint skiff
#

That's what I mean, because I was in VR, I couldn't see what was happening, hence not knowing what it did 😛

languid beacon
#

It’s pretty useful

slate verge
#

@languid beacon unless some avatars are made with it. Cuz my friend actually had an avatar with that stream camera thing.

faint skiff
#

The game window is 20x20 pixels, so I can't see what's going on with it anyway

#

(even if I switch to desktop with SteamVR)

languid beacon
#

You can have avatars that are third person on their own; tho it feels bad for vr users

faint skiff
#

Yeah that sounds weird

languid beacon
#

If your avatar contains a camera component anywhere on it, it will override the view position (as well as it’s IK)

#

Head will still have Ik but view comes from the camera

@hollow breach ur mom gay

vale fog
#

@hollow breach VRC_Angry

#

Lolol. its okay.

#

Erp

faint skiff
#

Will you be able to get near her, with the wall of orbiters?

vale fog
#

Orbiters get blocked

languid beacon
#

Yeah what even is that

faint skiff
#

Orbiters are people that just seem to be almost stalkerly following people around. I've heard it used dozens of times in game.

languid beacon
#

Ooh hey that’s me

faint skiff
#

"Girl gamer" + "thirsty teens" = walls of guys in game orbiting the one girl that turned up in pub.

languid beacon
#

Nvm not me

faint skiff
#

It typically happens in 2 situations. First is with popular streamers, the second is when (alleged) girls turn up.

languid beacon
#

I am the dude that teleports to friends and never says anything though

faint skiff
#

If you know people, or it's just a few people having a quiet conversation then you're not an orbiter. It's when it's like almost a crowd.

vale fog
#

If you join just bc shes a girl or streamer, youre an orbiter

faint skiff
#

Exactly

slate verge
#

in that case i'm an orbiter cuz i do follow my friends everywhere barely talk

languid beacon
#

I just assume all girls are guys anyway. Especially streamers

slate verge
#

yeah its true i'm a dude hay

faint skiff
#

I just assume everyone's a guy in VRC unless proven otherwise.

slate verge
#

theres nothing wrong with that

faint skiff
#

Many, many traps. Many unconvincing too, lol.

languid beacon
#

No no no. I assume people are people. Gender is irrelevant. Unless they are acting like a stereotypical girl. Then they’re a dude :p

slate verge
faint skiff
#

Or they're acting like an insufferable attention whore, then they're worse. A streamer.

#

gags

#

I joined a Pug instance the other day where Soupy (who is apparently a popular streamer?) was, very unconvincingly, pretending to be drunk, very loudly, for a long time. The cringe almost turned my face inside out.

languid beacon
#

Please look at this camera while you explain

#

I find it more annoying that people assume I can’t possible have not heard of <random user name> and am just pretending I haven’t

slate verge
#

uh huh

faint skiff
#

There was a thread on Reddit about that Adeon and literally no-one had heard of the two people that the person was talking about, ironically complaining that people were simply pretending never to have heard of these two random streamers.

#

Oh, that was it, not SoupyVR, it was Soups VR.

vale fog
#

Who is xigneon?

languid beacon
#

Yeah I think I had top comment lol

faint skiff
#

Yeah, I'm not one for watching VRC channels so I'd not heard of them either.

quiet oasis
#

no clue who they are too

faint skiff
#

I've watched some of the furry ones before due to it being a hilarious clusterfuck the majority of the time, but that's more due to it being like a zoo of madness rather than something relatable.

#

A furry or a streamer? lol

vocal shard
#

did i just hear the word furry?

#

Hans get ze flammenwerfer

#

@hollow breach what?

#

nah i just asked hans to get ze flammenwerfer

faint skiff
#

My flammenwerfer, it werfens the flammens.

quiet oasis
#

are cat-girls considered furry?

faint skiff
#

It's a sliding scale

languid beacon
#

Might wanna post the clean version of that

faint skiff
#

Oh, haha. 1 sec.

quiet oasis
#

what about fox-girls?

still lark
#

Look at the scale

faint skiff
#

Though to be honest, I'd still put the one at the far left in the original picture as "a bit furry"

#

I mean, it is animal tail, ears, etc.

still lark
#

It hasn't replaced anything tho

quiet oasis
#

i am still confused of why people hate furries

languid beacon
#

There are legit reasons but it’s mostly just meme not serious.

still lark
#

They have a bad stigma attached to them from the shitter part of their community.

faint skiff
#

I mean being covered in fur doesn't replace anything either because the skin is still underneath...

quiet oasis
#

so you prefer you people shaved @faint skiff ?

faint skiff
#

"Interview with a Furry". Brad Pitt's lesser known film.

#

@quiet oasis I guess so.

quiet oasis
#

i never met a furry

#

well i guess people have their fetishes... i dont want to judge

faint skiff
#

The majority of people I've seen hating on furries in public rooms were just bandwagoning because it's cool to hate people.

quiet oasis
#

we should spread love not hate
XD

#

everybody strip!

faint skiff
#

@quiet oasis I believe those are called Murrsuits 😉

quiet oasis
#

wait dont

still lark
#

That's the thing, not all furries want to hump each other.

faint skiff
#

I mean most people want to hump someone...

quiet oasis
#

no they dont

vocal shard
#

Most of is grew up watching cartoon animals, so it stands to reason that some stay attached and like the style. True there are some who go overboard, but really the majority of people in that category are not like that.
The whole stigma really is unfair, especially when you look at the anime community, some of the things that are acceptable there.

It's always the worst part of a community that gets blown out of proportion and attacked through stereotypes.

quiet oasis
#

you're a wizard @hollow breach

winged thistle
#

so, does anyone know a public avatar world where you can get cute wholesome catgirls? doesn't matter if lolis or not

still lark
#

search 'neko' and you'll probably find a bunch

faint skiff
#

I'm pretty sure I can say with 99% confidence that the majority of the human race are not asexual...

quiet oasis
#

Believe in yourself

faint skiff
#

... ok?

ivory axle
#

i don't understand why people dislike furries

quiet oasis
#

what does being straight has to do with humping?

ivory axle
#

its just someone with a different interest than the majority shrug

languid beacon
#

Honestly no one cares lol

ivory axle
#

honestly i disagree with that

#

when i started using a furry avatar on vrc a lot more people gave me hate

languid beacon
#

Well maybe for some reason I never get hit with it

faint skiff
#

lol, Adeon, join the Pug and see how long that lasts for 😛

quiet oasis
#

@hollow breach once you become a wizard, could you cast "Avada Kedavra" on my enemies?

#

thanks

still lark
#

1% of 7.7 billion is 77 million, so yeah, that's a lot of asexuals!

faint skiff
#

Maybe I just need to stop going to the Pug and the Cat to be honest. It seems like they're both a wretched hive of scum and villainy.

ivory axle
#

@hollow breach i understand that but when the people bad-mouth me i ask them why they hate me when they don't even know me and not one person has given me a justified reason

#

its stoopid but its the internet

umbral reef

A 'war' that was a meme
Same for gamer girls

Everyone’s got their own thing tho

i dont understand why tho bully

languid beacon

Few in VRChat aren’t degenerates

it isnt bullying tho

he's just giving his opinion

Ironic isn’t it

As if pretending to be a loli with big tits is somehow not degenerate behaviour...

he has the right to dislike something

I have a friend who made is first avatar, it was like a fox. He was really proud that he learned how to make one himself and now he could be really unique, but then he got attacked so often that he just went with a normal mmd from now on.
Unfair in a game where you can be anything.

ivory axle
#

exaclty

umbral reef
#

Almost like kids are toxic as shit and people should be punished more for things within the game

faint skiff
#

Being trigger happy on the block button is good for people in that situation.

terse basin
#

I download the avatar on the site I join unity I do everything right and click publish and nothing happens

faint skiff
#

But still far from ideal

ivory axle
#

you shouldn't have to block people to be comfortable and happy for who you are

umbral reef
#

@terse basin Step one is to never use that website anymore

terse basin
#

oh :c

faint skiff
#

@hollow breach To stop them continually being assholes

umbral reef
#

If people insult someone for what avatar they use, how they speak and ect they dont deserve to be in the game

vocal shard
#

@hollow breach cause they might be into being punished

#

@umbral reef what website?

ivory axle
#

vrchat is mainly a way of diversion, not to get attacked by toxic shits

faint skiff
#

If people are able to be "bad" with no repercussions, they will continue to be bad, potentially escalating in severity.

#

@hollow breach I'm going to assume you're like, early teens or something to have that little awareness of human nature and the world in general.

umbral reef
#

@vocal shard There is a website where you can get unity ready avatars
It has lots of things against the ToS and worse.
If you use that website you do not understand whats allowed and how to check it so rule of thumb is to just not use it then

terse basin
#

@umbral reef onde eu faço o download do SDK que funciona?

#

oh sorry i'm saying in portuguese

frosty veldt
#

Only time I've complained about an avatar is when it's uncanny, but even then it's easier to just hide it

terse basin
#

@umbral reef where do i download the SDK that works?

umbral reef
#

On the official Vrchat website

#

@hollow breach Did we say that? No so dont spin it that way

terse basin
#

@umbral reef you say to never use that website anymore

languid beacon
#

I think I’m immune to uncanny valley effects. Too much looking at animal faces in blender

faint skiff
#

@hollow breach So if you go up to someone on the street, scream at them, tell them you're going to murder their family and then hurl some racial slurs at them. You think that'd be fine?

ivory axle
#

@hollow breach you should get punished for harassing/verbally abusing people who just want to have fun and chill

vocal shard
#

Block button

faint skiff
#

That doesn't solve the problem does it

ivory axle
#

but they'd continue to be toxic to other people though

faint skiff
#

They'll just go be a cunt elsewhere

vocal shard
#

Ez pz lemon squeezy

#

Then they’ll be blocked again and eventually become a nuisance user

ivory axle
#

or how about just punish them so they learn a lesson?

faint skiff
#

Why should people have to deal with that? You can't just play pass-the-parcel with issues.

frosty veldt
#

@languid beacon uncanny valley effects everyone differently but I would assume you get over it eventually. Most furry avatars are not uncanny but a few give me the creeps

vocal shard
#

You expect people who play this game can learn lmao

umbral reef
#

@terse basin The official Vrchat website is fine. Im talking about a third party website that provides unity models all set and go for the game.

ivory axle
#

if you aren't willing to learn a lesson you should be punished.

faint skiff
#

@languid beacon But if you like using anthro avatars, then technically you're a furry, or even just liking the art. I don't think you have to have a fursuit or fursona to actually be a furry. I'm not 100% sure though.

languid beacon
#

For what it’s worth the cats movie is uncanny as heck to me and I hate it

#

@hollow breach So you think its normal to insult people and not get punished for it? Rewarding shitty behavior in large for the community?

@faint skiff Freedom of speech only applies to government entities.
And second, its not freedom of punishment and backlash.

faint skiff

Freedom of speech (I assume you're American) is to stop the government from censoring you. It doesn't apply to this at all.

i agree @faint skiff

@umbral reef i sending a image in your private chat

umbral reef
#

@frosty veldt Guess you play some strange as fuck games then lmao
What you think the goal of punishment is?

faint skiff
#

I mean I can only assume that anyone that argues against punishment for people being complete and continual assholes are infact that exact type of person. Because no sane person, with any level of empathy, would ever find that behavior acceptable.

vocal shard
#

If you want to see a really toxic community go play league or overwatch lmao

#

How about we start to cool the conversation. Probably bring things back around to vrchat related, and try not to heat things too much anymore. ^^

faint skiff
#

Therefore I assume both 0riginal and Bully are both that exact type of person. The vicious, nasty person that manages to skirt the law while abusing everyone else as much as possible.

#

You don't believe in punishment, remember?

umbral reef

You asked why we found you toxic? Well, actions like you have been just doing add to that image.

languid beacon
#

People always say overwatch is super toxic but I’ve played it since release and I just don’t see it. Do people refer to text chat? Because I only use voice chat in it

frosty veldt
#

Any kind of competitive game has toxic people in it, regardless if there's actions in place to combat it or not

umbral reef

@languid beacon At launch the game was toxic
As overwatch is short handed with claps and the game aint cheap toxic people are mainly gone or not that toxic anymore

#

I have a friend who i play with who is toxic. When I play with him I turn match chat off because I always see him in there constantly complaining and saying match is unfair or telling people to “watch their gameplay” (whatever that means) get tired of seeing it so I just turn match channel chat off. He’s been temp banned twice now for abusive chat. I’ve secretly reported him myself a few times. I’m a good friend

Despite being super useless. So deliberately being useless is fine but being a bad player = kick. HMMM Aka part of my top 10 reasons I don't play that game anymore :)

Be bult, tell him he is being sad and toxic and dont play with him unless he changed
Its what i did to one of my buddies and he reformed fast when he had no one to play with anymore

ivory axle
#

no?

#

well yeah you do tell them but not toxicly

#

whats the point? what would you gain from that?

#

then dont be toxic?

#

what do they gain?

#

they can learn either positively or negatively

Im sure that making someone dislike you is a perfect way to provide advice and give them tips on the game 👍

Whocare if you don't give advice to random kid on the street why do you try to give advice to random kid in a game . Positively or negatively

@hollow breach Hi

still lark
#

wtf, why can you zoom to like 8 pixels in blender? lol

upper chasm
#

I will try to

umbral reef
#

@still lark Why should you not be able to do that?

still lark
#

Seems excessive

umbral reef
#

Id be hella annoying for those rare few edge cases where you have to zoom in far and cant

#

So they pretty much did not make a cap on it

still lark
#

Does your edge cases include 3 full pixels? :P

umbral reef
#

Yes :^)

#

I need to see if they are the same and im blind :^)

still lark

Could probably fit 3 more if I didn't have this node editor here.

Wow, league of legends looks good.

Also do you not disable custom animations? 🤔

rigid crescent
mighty mesa
#

I have a problem that is i trust too much on people

rigid crescent
#

just turn off animations in public and nearly all your problems are gone

umbral reef
#

Man I really wonder how people survived the times before we could limit these things even

snow wadi
#

Back then it wasn't as bad as now.

rigid crescent
#

there were less people being dicks since you had to actually know how to upload an avatar

umbral reef
#

We had manual blocking from the menu and if the menu got world shaders we had panic mode :')

rigid crescent
#

Now the knowledge is a lot more common

frosty heart
#

i just got vrchat and pc, would anyone like to show me the ropes ?

umbral reef
#

Back then it was also fairly known
Can't even recall the amount of times I just quit playing thanks to world shaders before panicmode

languid beacon
#

I don’t use safety at all. I don’t crash. Use dynamic bone filter with doubled limits, but that’s all

still lark
#

@rigid crescent Needs mouse tracking

umbral reef

wait a second
Can we blame Tupper and cats for these crahswrs :^)
They educated the masses with there tools and tutorials in the early days

rigid crescent

lol the portal

snow wadi
#

This is why we can't have nice things.

still lark
#

That portal is fine

covert blade
#

Who needs safety when you have a panic button

umbral reef
#

It should be illegal to have it be 39c

languid beacon
#

Wow 30 gigagigas

#

Also try 117 F

rough pulsar
#

😱

#

Also bear in mind that in the northern european countries having any kind of home cooling systems beyond a fan is very rare.

rigid crescent
#

Americans do EVERYTHING big, even temperatures

umbral reef
#

@languid beacon it's 45c in my car that has no airco

rigid crescent
#

its been getting progressively worse each summer hasn't it? i think by now people should start investing

#

then again, new orleans exists and people keep coming back and rebuilding so

languid beacon
#

I know Celsius is a different scale but whenever I see Celsius I’m just “dang that’s cold”

rough pulsar
#

So you might laugh when europeans start to set on fire around 35c but when all you have to help is opening the windows and a small desk fan we're kinda fucked.

faint skiff
#

Yeah, it's 35'c+ here and we have no form of cooling other than a fan 😦

#

Also means VR's a bit off the table

languid beacon
#

Oh yeah I can imagine. The nice thing about Phoenix is that headsets never fog, no water vapor in air to fog it

faint skiff
#

It was 99% humidity the other evening and over 90% last night

umbral reef
#

@rough pulsar Its so bad that wall mount airco units sell for around 50% the price during the winter and are sold out within the warehouse centers within hours of them being there. (or well... There is now a months long waitlist and its first come first serve)

Tonight I want to spoil myself

Imma have a burger

For some reason I'm craving for one

You know the memes where you can’t talk about stuff beings hot without someone from Arizona coming in being all “you guys have no idea what hot is” I saw them all the time and it wasn’t until I moved to Arizona I became that guy

umbral reef
#

Tbh, it being hot aint a problem
I can handle 40C, it being 40C and humid is whats killing me

snow wadi
#

Yeah we get that by default

All day erryday

#

I wonder what’s worse 104 Fand humid or 118 F dry heat

umbral reef
#

104 id guess

pure hemlock

I melt in anything above 30C

So glad my rift s doesn't cook while using it

Meanwhile it's 19c here cirnoLaugh

faint skiff

I cease most mental functions above 22'c because apparently I'm some sort of Nord so 35'c is like death to me 😦

umbral reef

Or well, tbh both are the same really
One makes is so it feels like 118 the other is 118

Its already going to harshly rain in a few days so

snow wadi
#

Ok so I was watching a yt vid just now and hardee'z ad showed up

#

Screw it, brb

faint skiff

Hardee'z sounds like some sort of Deez Nutz joke that I'm not aware of

I'm one of those weird people who can handle humid heat really well, but dry heat fucks me over something terrible.

snow wadi
#

Oh before I go, @rough pulsar baking did NOT work ;_;

languid beacon
#

See you can’t melt in Arizona. The sweat just evaporates right away. You don’t get soaked. You just dehydrate and burn @_@ when I go home at 3:30p and walking from my car it just smells like someone’s cooking something. But it’s just the trees and pavement getting slightly cooked

rough pulsar

Oh, did the problem still happen with baked reflection probes?

snow wadi

In fact it KILLED the probes

Oof people using the pirated version of dynamic bone which has values 100x out of scale with how it acts in VRChat

vocal shard
#

Oof

faint skiff
#

Oof owie, my dynamic bones

vocal shard
#

Another reason to buy it legit 02ohoho

languid beacon
#

Even worse: the pirates version is ignored by the uploader’s rating system, meaning people who don’t have a legit copy are less likely to keep meaningful limits

#

It’ll still be rated poorly in game of course but it’s full excellent in unity

umbral reef
#

Its gonna be fun when we upgrade and all the users flood into the discord asking why there dynamic bones does not properly work

slate verge
#

its so cheap

languid beacon
#

Nah dyn bone won’t ever break for being pirated. Real or fake the code is stripped out and replaced with vrc’s copy all the same

umbral reef
#

It breaks within unity though

#

So they need to find a new rip for it to function

languid beacon
#

The pirates version just 1.) says it’s excellent and 2.) has an inaccurate preview

faint skiff
#

Assuming we ever upgrade...

languid beacon
#

I really want 2018 unity’s rotation constraint component for avatars

#

Removes the rigid body + fixed joint hacky setup

faint skiff
#

Do you know if the update is on the cards any time soon / ever?

languid beacon
#

No one knows

umbral reef
#

They want to upgrade but never gave a time table for this.

languid beacon
#

I doubt even Udon will be for 2018

#

Just give me non-humanoid walk overrides back and I’ll be good with features for a year or two

umbral reef
#

I expect udon to be before 2018 really as thats on the roadmap while the 2018 build isnt

#

Also yea, by now they can just readd old removed things instead of upgrading and we would get more new toys

I keep thinking "isn't it 2019 tho"

@soft turret That's something the world creators have to do AFAIK, not VRC themselves

sitting alone in a pug..

rigid crescent
#

unfortunate

#

cant you just update youtubedl yourself? 🤔

vestal sleet
#

Ya VRC_Blush

rough pulsar
#

With how often youtube-dl needs to be updated, some kind of side-channel update mechanism for it would be very useful. Especially considering the one that comes with the vrchat install has some of their own patches applied.

soft turret
#

there are fan created ways to have it auto update

#

an official solution though mm mm 😍

umbral reef
#

Well manually doing it yourself (or having a tool do it for you).

rigid crescent
#

download it and drag it into the folder?

soft turret
#

yes but ideally you'd like all your features to work without personal intervention

#

I can update it myself, don't mean the team shouldn't be constantly updating it

#

been a month now :/

umbral reef
#

@rigid crescent people make tools for anything so 🤷
Its the same you can clear the cache manually or with some cmd lines that just a paste and go

#

Well, they stated before they would update the game just for this if the main update was far away still.
Guess that aint true anymore

vestal sleet
#

Is there a tool that clean ur memory yet VRC_Thinking

umbral reef
#

rebooting the game

rigid crescent
#

just take it out and wash it

umbral reef
#

Taking it out? Mic we all know you just power wash the full pc

languid beacon
#

It’s not always vrc’s fault it breaks. Google breaks the formatting all the time.

vestal sleet
#

I mean one that free memory in game

rigid crescent
#

if youre strapped for time a quick rinse will do the trick, i cant be expected to get out of VR to power wash my PC every time the game doesnt wanna act right

umbral reef
#

Its pretty much all YT from what i understand adeon

#

Thats why you water cool.
Makes it easy to just flip a switch and water cool/clean the full PC

languid beacon
#

I’ve tried to maintain a YouTube player on another platform it’s a nightmare. YouTube gets a redesign an your entire fetch breaks

faint skiff
#

Oh, that reminds me. It's almost like VRC is screwing my cache now. Every time I open VRChat, I have to download worlds again. It's fine if I stay in VRChat, but as soon as I exit the game and go back in, everything has to be downloaded again. I'm guessing that's not deliberate. Anyone know what's wrong?

rough pulsar
#

Try just totally wiping the cache directory

#

quit vrchat first

languid beacon
#

The only permanent way I got my player to work casues desync by just allowing their ads to pass in

snow wadi
#

I return with a giant burger :3

umbral reef

I still find it funny how YT changed there rules on video players having to be visible after talks started about YT red. And it then became a YT red exclusive function

#

@snow wadi Enjoy the noms

snow wadi

faint skiff
#

Gah, you've made me crave a tofu burger now and I know there's no-where in my city that does good ones.

#

@hollow breach Well no, that defeats the point of a cache

vestal sleet
#

They should optimize it so that you don't delete ur own avatar cache or recent world

languid beacon
#

I do know the last updated field has stopped updating on world upload It’s possible the client always thinks your cached version is out of date

umbral reef
#

I cant evne begin to think of how much of a nightmare that could be tenten

#

To code atleast

vestal sleet
#

Not rly

#

But that depend on alot of stuff so idk

#

Who knows how they implement

umbral reef
#

Uploads new avatar over same ID
Having 500 avatars on your account

vestal sleet
#

Oh

#

Well that like ur own fault

umbral reef
#

Well im fairly sure they didnt set it up to deal with these type of problems

vestal sleet
#

Ya

umbral reef
#

So me playing for a long time, having a fair few avatars is my fault?
Guess all old users should just suck it

#

(Also i dont have that many myself but i know plenty who do)

languid beacon
#

Avatar folders /categories would be nice to have for those who own avatar worlds - have fun finding your personal stuff

vestal sleet

I mean yes if u have that many but u don't use any

still lark

Just use different account, 4head! xd

umbral reef
#

You know how avatar worlds work right?

vestal sleet
#

Oh I am talking about ur own avatar

#

Uploaded one

languid beacon
#

Yes, if you own an avatar world your “mine” category is flooded with all the avatars you use for your worlds. Typically stuff uploaded for other people

#

Your personal stuff is hard to find

vestal sleet
#

Oh I see

still lark
#

I have the problem of wanting my Debug Avatar, and having to scroll to near the end. :(

Like it's not exactly the most "lively" game but you really just disregard the entire knuckles boom and how unnatural that type of exposure is for a game like this?

umbral reef

@vocal shard That boom didnt even last a month and just like with other games it cant sustain a boom that long. There are some REALLY edge cases with this but no game can sustain growth that happened so fast and big.

If you are sitting in FBT it's a constant flex

not a flex

It’s a flex to others. They can’t do it. Unintentional flex

frosty veldt

"Weird flex but ok"

People don't sit (or stand) in FBT. They lie down at all times. It's against the rules to do anything else.

I think it was worth it tho, it's nice and fun

I just sit on the floor cross legged

It is more like "wow I am actually in the game " instead of damn I have no leg

I'll dance if im drunk enough, or in a good mood which is usually brought about by alcohol

frosty veldt

It was definitely worth it imo, I hate playing the game without it nowadays

vestal sleet

Ya same

languid beacon
#

Yeah the immersion alone was worth full body. Even if you don’t do anything, just having your legs and body posture matches to rL is real nice. Really makes you accept the world as real

When using the Vive just pretend your back in the days of the Wii

That's exactly what I thought when I was playing on the Bowling world with the Vive

#

Expensive Wii Sports

vestal sleet
#

Finger is pretty useless I haven't seen anyone who use it well tbh

#

Otherthan to weird flex👀

covert blade
#

I think the benefit also comes from the fact that grabbing feels more natural with the Index Controllers

languid beacon
#

Honestly I’m considering just getting a quest instead of an index. I think I want wireless fullbody more than finger tracking and screen clarity

covert blade
#

Like you actually open your hand and close it to grab something

faint skiff
#

But you won't be able to see anyone, and your own avatar will be garbage...

covert blade
#

Most worlds are PC only

vestal sleet
#

U can hook it to pc

languid beacon
#

Nah I’ll stream the Pc version to quest

covert blade
#

Or that

faint skiff
#

Ahh, yeah you mentioned that before. That would work I guess. You'd be time limited by power though.

languid beacon
#

Quest has been able to play Pc games for a while

frosty veldt
#

I haven't used any controllers besides the Vive remotes so I dunno what I'm missing

faint skiff
#

Delay and degraded visual quality...

rigid crescent
#

can confirm that the quest FBT setup is janky as hell unless youve got it figured out already i guess

vestal sleet
#

Vive remote are the worst

rigid crescent
#

when a friend did it, the entire thing was a mess according to him

languid beacon
#

I hear the have the latency down to 20ms

#

Yeah I have oculus vive hybrid down already and I have it well automated. I don’t think quest should be any more complicated

rigid crescent
#

it's not that it's complicated, it's just crap

#

but that was a month or two ago, maybe its better now

languid beacon
#

That’s relevant info to me what was his issues

#

I know advances in streaming have improved rapidly

rigid crescent
#

i have no clue, i just recall a lot of "ok yeah fuck this" and "everything is lagging so bad"

#

the technicalities i never asked

torn nebula
#

I tried virtual desktop streaming, seemed perfectly usable to me

languid beacon
#

There’s like 4 different streaming apps rn and some suck more then Others. Everyone says VD is perfect

rigid crescent
#

well it wasn't the streaming to the headset that was the issue, it's when he threw in FBT I believe

torn nebula
#

Ah I didn't try setting FBT up

rigid crescent
#

the streaming to the headset is fine

torn nebula
#

I imagine it's similar to setting up rift fbt though

languid beacon
#

Was it his first attempt at oculus vive hybrid? Because that stuff has a very nightmarish first time setup even with a rift

torn nebula
#

Just make sure the headset isn't on 2.4ghz due to interference issues

rigid crescent
#

No, previously he was oculus+FBT then got a vive

#

I think it was Xbox thing, then trackers+rift, then just plain vive setup

languid beacon
#

I was gonna go oculus + vive trackers to just full index + vive trackers but I wasn’t happy with the controllers so I got cold feet and ignored my ready to ship email

I'm having trouble with installing addons to Blender. Can anyone help me out?

languid beacon
#

Don’t unzip, picking it from user preferences and making sure to turn it on and save preferences ?

neon quartz
#

@languid beacon well what im having trouble with is installing Pillow. Apparently I need it for optimization, and it requires that I install XCOde and Python, and knowing the right line of code

languid beacon
#

Is it made for your version of blender? I haven’t had a plug-in that needed python in a while

Hi

pseudo maple
#

Where I'm from, it's naturally cold so I'm too used to it and thrive in much colder temperatures.. I don't understand how people here in the UK can handle this and the max they get is like 17-24c

Being british = cold? That explains alot about ke

Well, apparently, what I've learned from my time here, 17-24c roughly is really warm but it's far too warm for me. I prefer much lower temperature range

I can't even cope with what you guys consider average 😦

Normal here is like 12

pseudo maple

Too warm for me

It has little to do with the temperature and mostly to do with infrastructure

Anything over 10c is like a desert to me

@opaque hawk What would happen if the ground did freeze over? Since the houses aren't build for it?

It’s would potentially crack the foundation

Oh.. That'd be bad..

That’s why basements exist

Hmm.. Homes here in the UK aren't equipped with basements, or at least not a lot of them are. There could be the odd few that do..

Same in all honesty its far to hot here in the UK

Is there a way to request a custom avatar

Agreed. I think we're being hit with a heatwave at the current moment.
I think there's a channel for that, somewhere. I'm still new to this Discord server so I don't currently know.. Sorry!

Hey uh where can i ask for custom avatar help

#

i believe my sdk is fully updated

#

but it only has the "Clear cache and playerprefs" option

floral zodiac
#

uninstall the sdk and reimport it , its a bug that can happen sometime

pale wigeon
#

Neo that happened to me to

lone nacelle
#

ok so im like really dumb and dont use unity that much

pale wigeon
#

I used an older version of unity and it worked

lone nacelle
#

how do i uninstall the sdk

pale wigeon
#

I recommend version 2017.4.28f1

#

for some reason the newest version of unity only shows the "Clear cache and playerprefs"

faint skiff

Hmm, gonna call it an evening. Hopped 8 or so Pug instances and it's mostly kids or people just being odd. Room with rain was even worse in that it was basically a playground (most users are white plates too which implies they're all new)

#

I struggle to find good sessions in the Pug and Room with Rain, there seems to be either intense arguing or screamers now.. :/

#

Then when you do find that one good one, someone joins and ruins the fun 😦

gentle plume

is a checkbox labeled "developer" supposed to show when uploading avatars

ah nvm it was just laggy

@pale wigeon that's not a bug, the vrchat sdk isnt designed to work with the newest unity, only 2017.4.28f1 atm.

anyone wanna get on vrchat rn

does anyone know why my game infinitely loads and then asks me to login, and when i do the game crashes? after that it just infinite loads and crashes again, whats going on?

I get that too, unfortunately. I've just sort of accepted it, thinking that my PC just isn't quite VR ready

gentle plume
#

ah, its happened to me quite a lot as well, i just started to realize and think to myself on why its happening

Hmm. I assume your specifications are ok?

@wise sentinel You can't, it's limited to 16. You can upload as many of your own as you want, but you need to learn how to do that first and it's not a simple process.

umbral reef
#

It's fairly simple if you can follow a tutorial
Else it's hard

faint skiff
#

Or rather, if you're just straight importing without changing anything then it's relatively easy. It's the almost bottomless rabbithole that leads to the difficulty.

Actually slightly fucked off about the Index now. On the US site, the full kit is now 4-8 days delivery. In the UK I still have a September 29th availability date. What the actual shit Valve?

covert blade
#

Valve is based in the US isn't it?

faint skiff
#

Yes, but Europe is one of their main availability locations (and I doubt the headsets are being made in the US)

covert blade
#

Yes but they probably prioritized the US region before intending to export it

#

US gets a lot of things first

The samsung oddyssey+ is one of the best WMR headsets and it is nowhere near as good as the index

Tbh most "cat" girls aren't cats

I reported an NSFW avatar and the world is still up

Everyone knows reports don't do anything. It's a "feel like you're helping" button.

What are ERP "maps" though?

As a "junk male" I feel personally attacked.

snow wadi
#

lmao

faint skiff
#

I prefer the term "person of no worth" or "garbageman"

covert blade

Did something get deleted?

#

@faint skiff I made a ticket about that avatar, not the ingame report

faint skiff
#

Ah

covert blade
#

Did Fez say something bad?

faint skiff
#

I think Fez needs a hug, much of the game seems to bother them and I get the impression they're overwhelmed.

covert blade
#

Hm. Oh well. Yeah I know the ingame report button is a whole lot of useless but I assumed that sending them a ticket would result in something happening

#

Hm, no. I was wrong and I wasted my time with that

snow wadi
#

I actually feel bad for those type, I keep saying this : You never know what kind of horror they're facing with their family in the real world, and this platform is the only way they can feel good about themselves...it's...actually kinda sad if you think about it. :<

faint skiff
#

I personally relate to that so, yeah...

#

But ANYWAY

So what exactly happened to Fez? Like I still don't get it
