covert blade

You've got mail

glad bolt
#

I'll add you both on the website

covert blade
#

Nico I will find you and I will join you and I will eat away your pocky sticks D:

broken plover
#

NUU It took me 3-5 minutes to 3D model them D:

covert blade
#

Unless you're in the community meetup. That's off-limits for me

broken plover
#

I only join at the start because then vrc is scuffed and wont download the world

covert blade
#

lol

glad bolt
#

Aaaa, I forgot the site changed, ugh

covert blade
#

Oh yeah

#

It's not as compact as before

molten gale
#

I like it

broken plover
#

and also when It finally downloads the map I get a blackscreen and an error sound and then I get a robot replacement avatar :/

glad bolt
#

Couldn't even find messages on the desktop site, but I got it through mobile

covert blade
#

Friends location is pretty good

glad bolt
#

Ohh, so that's why your avatar icon is like that, Nico

molten gale
#

Same

covert blade
#

+2 friends. Yey

molten gale
#

Happened to me when I left mmd stage

broken plover
#

why do I even get that avatar forced on me when I get thrown out of a world?

molten gale
#

Idk

broken plover
#

vrscuff

glad bolt
#

If I weren't so drained today, I'd play, but gonna have to say tomorrow for sure. Just ping me when you guys are on.

broken plover
#

Ill just go online in desktop mode and change my avatar so it displays the correct preview image

covert blade
#

Roger

#

But desktop is heresy D:

glad bolt
#

Next time

broken plover
#

vrc is offically scuffed. I started it in desktop mode but it still booted up my vr...

covert blade
#

gg

vocal shard
#

yo recently one of my worlds got some moderator tags which i dont agree with (enviroment-hateful) is there any way to appeal this shit or nah?

covert blade
faint skiff
#

What's in the world?

vocal shard
#

anybody know how to get unbanned

#

i was just using unity

#

and when i tried to publish an avatar it said a you have been banned since december 04

faint skiff
#

The first page of the SDK lists your permissions, what does it say there?

rigid crescent
#

i mean you were banned so you just wait for the ban to end?

faint skiff
#

If it's December 4th then chances are their ban is forever or for several years.

rigid crescent
#

maybe they're lucky and its just a month from now

glad bolt
#

But it said "since"? Was it last year?

lunar cedar
#

Anyone down to have mini discord meetup?

stone lantern
#

i mean if you down ima down

#

im*

lunar cedar
#

I'll get a link to a world, one sec

Actually just add JakEne. I'm too lazy to use a link

im in a mini tournament

shell harness
#

Whenever im in a dancing world. And try dancing. Other dancer is not syncing with me. Either some of them dance a bit early or late than me. Anyone know what's wrong?

meager solstice
#

Have someone who is not dancing click the button @shell harness

#

It’s just normal latency

shell harness
#

I mean we just need to stand at the same spot that are indicated n press a button to start at the same time. But our dance didn't sync up

#

Oooh

dark pawn
#

🤔

placid hedge
#

Anyone from romania ?

vestal pier

bruh

#

I'm playing since 2017 and ive only meet 2 people from my country , feels bad

vocal shard
#

What count

#

ry

placid hedge
#

i just said , romania

vocal shard
#

Sorry, I wasnt reading lol

jagged zodiac
#

ya i’ve only met you and Skizzoo from romania,, but i haven’t even talked to skizzoo yet

placid hedge
#

Yes i know

#

I was looking in discord aswell

#

Mabye some people don't use reddit

vocal shard
#

What the different between steam and Oculus

#

I need a mentor

rigid crescent
#

Oculus VR is an American technology company founded by Palmer Luckey, Brendan Iribe, Michael Antonov, Jack McCauley and Nate Mitchell in July 2012 in Irvine, California, now based in Menlo Park. It specializes in virtual reality hardware and software products.

Steam is a video game digital distribution service platform developed by Valve Corporation. It was launched in September 2003 as a way for Valve to provide automatic updates for their games, but eventually expanded to include games from third-party publishers.

desert stratus
#

@vocal shard in other words, Oculus is a VR company whereas Steam is a storefront / product owned and operated by Valve. You'd have to be comparing Oculus and Valve, but it would be wiser to compare by headset

#

Valve has only one VR headset - the Valve Index - and it's the top of the line thing a consumer can buy if you're only willing to spend 1000 usd. Oculus has two current VR headsets that can run VRChat, though one is specifically a PC headset whereas the other is its own "VR console" with the power of an unlocked smartphone

cosmic delta
#

What are the occulus quest avatar requirements

#

?

rigid crescent
civic plume
#

is vrchat actually banning these people with crashes or what?

meager solstice
#

yes they do actually ban people for those reasons @civic plume

civic plume
#

lol, that made me laugh

#

next update should be to delete the option of public worlds becasue wtf the point anymore smh. cant meet and make new friends without some loser who sits in his mothers basement comes and crashes me and other

rigid crescent
#

Why even ask the question if you think you know the answer?

#

Just open up with your complaint, at least be genuine about it

civic plume
#

i dont care bud

rigid crescent
#

vrcTrollThinking then why say anything to begin with

civic plume
#

because theres no rule saying i cant

rigid crescent
#

So do you care or not? tanabae

civic plume
#

checkmated, now stop attacking me

meager solstice
#

just turn off the animations...... seems like an easy fix @civic plume

civic plume
#

dont ping me

meager solstice
#

ping who @civic plume ?

civic plume
#

dont ping me i said

#

dont

meager solstice
#

?

civic plume
#

do not ping me unless its important

#

same rule applys to the devs.

rigid crescent
#

LOL

civic plume
#

treat it the same

meager solstice
#

ur actually insane

civic plume
#

only partially

rigid crescent
#

The ones who complain about "always" being crashed always give away the reason why when they keep talking

meager solstice
civic plume
#

this is why i dont talk here

rigid crescent
#

It takes a special type of personality to "always" get crashed, usually overly confrontational and rude people. Not that it's an excuse for it to happen, but it's usually easy to see why it does.

civic plume
#

i dont even know why i stay here, im only here for notifs about vrc

meager solstice
#

u dont talk here cuz u actually cant keep a conversation "normal" u literally laughed at my response

rigid crescent
#

You can set up your own channel on a private server where the announcements will cross over so you don't have to be here

meager solstice
#

pinged 1 time to get ur attention..... like any normal discord user would

civic plume
#

no buddy, if you had some more brains. you get crashed for no reason

i was sitting in the pug listening to a friend play piano working on my avatars and commissions when i get crashed in vein

meager solstice
#

just turn the animations off

#

simple easy and listen to mic

rigid crescent
#

Keeping anims off for non-friends is pretty smart in public at least.

civic plume
#

im not even making sense anymore because im trying to explain it for you. you clearly dont play the game as much or play in public worlds to understand then

rigid crescent
#

So are you denying that turning off animations will help? I don't get it.

#

I play plenty in both public and friends+ worlds.

civic plume
#

why do i have to turn these things off, you should just be able to play the game without having to break the game down and ruining the experience -_-

meager solstice
#

im in publics every time i play, yes we understand crashers r annoying but when u let it happen to urself.. and u as the user with the features necessary to stop it from happening arent taking the appropriate actions, how would u like us to respond?

rigid crescent
#

You should, but you can't, so it makes sense to take precautions til then.

civic plume
#

i hope this game gets some upgrade in detecting crashers and banning them lightning fast
ending it on this.

rigid crescent
#

Not sure how it "ruins the experience" though, it seems pretty fine vrcThinking Show who you trust, list, know, etc and hide what you don't.

meager solstice
#

so how would u go about detecting a crasher? and than banning them? maybe suggest it on the canny

civic plume
#

detection of users crashing and maybe it figures the reason and why and if its particles how many were rendered and who did it then look at the potential crashers avatars and view stats about the avatars they have and create an automated review or decision to a real person (devs)

#

i have basic understanding of programming and plc because my job includes working with plcs. so i know there’s possible ways, it’s just idk.. i guess i have to keep dealing with this..

meager solstice
#

i mean, they basically do that now (in a way) through people sending the output logs in

#

early access game, turning off animations and enabling them manly is the best way to avoid crashers atm

civic plume
#

but make that automatic, and so they don’t get shafted with millions of logs just make a system that has the keywords to filter the right crash logs

#

i know

#

but it ruins the experience for me

#

anyway

#

time will tell what happens

snow wadi
#

It's actually very easy to detect a crasher with the appropriate tools, a client md5 hash check would work since they would need a modified client to do so.

#

Also, moaning! vrcLove

proper sand
#

huh

devout island
#

good morning qhala

snow wadi
glad bolt
lunar cedar
#

Remote attestation isn't just running a hashsum though. Otherwise the client could just send back bogus hashes. Probably less work to fix the bugs that cause crashes than making a secure remote attestation system. @snow wadi

sullen escarp
#

@snow wadi vrchat literally does that already

#

it's basically useless though, because people just send fake hashes

#

so yeah, what he said ^

snow wadi
#

Then you would need something along the lines of xign code.

#

Or better yet, watch dog from overwatch (I think it's called watch dog, could be wrong.)

#

Man you fart in that game and you get locked out xD

#

The last solution would be ingame GMs, but that's a stretch for the team.

lunar cedar
#

Probably easier to just il2cpp and get some obfuscators to mix up the signatures of critical functions/structures every update. That's what csgo did (or and probably still does) though they're c++ native.

rigid crescent
#

I mean coming up with a fairly organized ingame GM system really wouldn't be that hard if it was aimed at just publics, a lot (not talking just lewd) goes on in friends+ that, while it could technically be rulebreaking, there's often different social norms due to the group.

#

Only having them in publics also mitigates one of my main issues with ingame GMs, which is the idea that since it's a social game, personal grievances can come into play as far as who to not moderate seeing as nepotism already comes into play for the same thing

molten gale
#

Person uploading an avatar: So this is good performance right?
SDK: Well yes,
In game: but actually no.
Dynamic Bones: Allow us to introduce ourselves
Bad performance intensifies

#

Seriously tho, why is this a thing and why does it affect every booth model I use

devout island
#

don't worry about that i'm pretty sure it's not so bad on performance

molten gale
#

Its fine for me

#

Its just something that shouldnt happen

lunar cedar
#

You're talking about when the stats differ because of dyn bones? I've seen it when avatars come with dyn bones in the scene, but when I add it myself to one that didn't have it, it works fine.

molten gale
#

Its really odd

#

Turns out playing mute sucks for me in most cases

devout island
#

why don't you use your mic

molten gale
#

I sometimes dont feel like it

#

People tend to ask questions I cant reply to when im mute

#

I also make waaaay more friends when I talk

#

"Where are your from?" Confused shrugs

#

Yeah same but how do you say that as mute

#

I cant lmao

devout island
#

or just say yes with your head

molten gale
#

Dont have a pen on my main avatar

#

You can

#

But it makes no sens

devout island
#

exactly

molten gale
#

Yeah

#

Happens to me as well

#

People usually see their mistake tho

#

And I gotta go now

#

Seeyall in like 6 hours

blazing fox

tough crest

where do i go to report someone for crashing me?

Being mute in a nutshell

vocal shard
#

Anyone have any recommended specs for a PC if i'm going to run VR Chat?

lunar cedar
#

i5-6500, gtx 1070, SATA/M.2 SSD. Good internet

vocal shard
#

Ok thanks 😄

hollow sluice
#

2x2080 ti, 64gb of ram and a  i9-9980XE

#

You mght Be able to play above 40 fps

glossy wharf
#

@vocal shard i would advise to get something better than an i5 6500 if you wanna have it run smooth but thats just my two cents

lunar cedar
#

6700 is just that with HT on. HT is a security vulnerability pre 8th gen CPUs. @vocal shard @glossy wharf

#

Misread my bad. But the point stands. Don't get HT CPUs pre-8th gen

#

On wmr at least, an i5-6500 is more than enough for smooth gameplay. Not sure how much CPU is used by tracking software of the other systems.

faint skiff
#

Or do, and just ignore the virtually immeasurably small chance that hyperthreading is actually going to cause any security issues. But that said, the game eats CPU so the more powerful, the better.

lofty crown
#

hey has anyone here used both the rift controllers and the vive controller 1s on vr chat ?

#

I have both and i wanna know what is better

faint skiff
#

Touch controllers are probably more comfortable than the (front heavy) Vive controllers. That said, I had no real complaints about the Vive controllers other than wrist ache after 6 solid hours of VR.

silent bloom
#

ugh, even just going into random chill worlds there's a screen blocker

vocal shard
#

You can disable animations from non friends to prevent that

covert blade
#

@silent bloom Safety settings

gentle cove
#

While I quickly learned you need to set that up as a new user, it does feel like maybe they need to think about making that a default setting. A lot of total newbies logging into their first worlds who are less familiar with what the options mean, might not stick around if they are just getting their view shut down, they might even assume it's just a janky broken game and not delibrate trolling.

'Trusted' users it was enabled for when i first played, and despite the title 'trusted' users seemed to be the ones most likely to be abusing it. I'm still not even sure how to set something like that up.

covert blade
#

Visitors are commonly doing it too

#

Probs because they dont know any better

silent bloom
#

visitors are actually less likely, because they can't really figure stuff out typically

#

as ryuu said, its always the trusted users

covert blade
#

"Always"

#

Considering I've seen plenty of visitors roam the land with stupid meme avatars, I disagree

#

That's why my custom settings treat everyone except friends equally

hoary hawk
#

or just say no

rigid crescent
#

You mgiht be joining dead lobbies, at any given time there's at least 2k people in public lobbies

faint skiff
#

Regarding world tags - what does a gavel with "avatars-performance" mean?

gilded helm
#

Are there any specific avatar worlds that feature avatars that don't have piss poor quality and aren't midgets?

rigid crescent
#

last i checked there's a few hundred there that are Good or better

gilded helm
#

Thank you!

#

Hopefully they also fit my taste

faint skiff
rigid crescent
#

pretty sure like 99% of them are characters though, no "OC" style ones like most worlds

gilded helm
#

Yeah I'm just tryna look for osmething really cool

#

OCs are mostly the cool ones

faint skiff
#

Everyone has very different ideas of what "cool" is though

gilded helm
#

that's why I'm getting up a screenshot

rigid crescent
#

yeah these are basically all characters from videogames

gilded helm
#

give me a sec

#

I really liked this one, I don't really mind that a lot of people use this one

#

but the performance is very poor which I hate, I rather have medium or higher

vocal shard
#

That should not be that low performance.. O.O

gilded helm
#

I know right?

rigid crescent
#

A lot of models shouldnt be but are

vocal shard
#

Materials? Or maybe animations?

rigid crescent
#

But it depends why it's very poor, not all performance hits are equal no matter what the profiler tries to tell you

gilded helm
#

nvm it was poor

#

not very poor,

rigid crescent
#

yeah that's not really that bad lol

gilded helm
#

It isn't?

#

Or is it the dynamic bones bringing it down

rigid crescent
#

it's the DB

ruby needle
#

13 Materials cirSlain

rigid crescent
#

oh yikes i missed that

#

was only looking at Red lol

gilded helm
#

Dynamic bones are the parts of the body that can move right?

#

if you interact with them

ruby needle
#

the db counts count be better, specifically collisions

#

but they are not "awfull"

gilded helm
#

so should I contiunue to use it?

ruby needle
#

there is definitely a lot worse out there

gilded helm
#

or should I strive to find a better one

ruby needle
#

that one is acceptible

#

ofc, the better the better, but that one is nothing you'll be murdered for. cirLaugh

gilded helm
#

Sounds good then

#

making your own avatars is hard

#

even if you just try to frankenstein them

next glen
#

hi

kindred sluice
#

Hi

faint skiff
#

@ruby needle @vocal shard Do not even you guys know what the "avatars-performance" tag means?

ruby needle
#

we're discord moderators, not game moderators.

#

So, no clue about tagging cirHuh

gilded helm
#

how long does it even take to get to known user

vocal shard
#

A week

gilded helm
#

a week?

#

seriously?

vocal shard
#

Doubt me?

#

It's not based on time

#

Some have got it the same day, some weeks

#

I wouldn’t know if you accept a week you won’t be disappointed if it comes sooner

#

If you are lucky

#

Just be active

faint skiff
#

@ruby needle True, but you've been around for (what I assume is) ages. So, knowledge over time and all that.

vocal shard
#

Upload avatars and new maps and make looser need friends

#

That are secretly lewd

ruby needle
#

Fair enogh @faint skiff but i dont know any solid answere to that.

faint skiff
#

Hmm, curiouser and curiouser.

#

Probably code for "your work is shit, delete it"

vocal shard
#

There's only so much knowledge you can gain over time if you're not told much AkkoShrug

ruby needle
#

i can see that it might be a bot auto tagging new worlds for review?

#

who knows

vocal shard
#

I remember for a while they did have a limit, and poor performance avatars in worlds were not allowed. I don't know if that is still a thing

#

I don't keep up with that stuff

glad bolt
#

My first world is 14.44 MB, so I worried about some outside thing affecting the whole instant report upon upload thing

faint skiff
#

The world seems to be great performance at this point. Even my friend with an Intel 505 gets decent rates in it, so it shouldn't be the world performance itself.

#

@glad bolt All worlds start with 1 report.

glad bolt
#

Any idea on why?

#

I like info, sorry

faint skiff
#

May just be a "World has been uploaded" report or something that automatically goes out.

glad bolt
#

That makes sense

#

Speaking of, I'm gonna go make tweaks to it. Guess that's my all day project today..

topaz tiger
#

o.o

umbral reef
#

@vocal shard That was for avatar worlds. It got removed (or not checked anymore) once the limit got removed and once avatar sharing became a thing

vocal shard
#

Oki

umbral reef
#

(It also got checked via a document and not from the API so far i know 🤔)

faint skiff
#

I wonder if the moderation flag is because of of two of the avatars being marked as very poor (due to Tris on one and animators on the other)

gilded helm
#

some people got known user in the same day?

#

what the fuck

vocal shard
#

Not kown. New user

gilded helm
#

oh damn

#

cause i asked for known

vocal shard
#

Oh, sorry

#

Just rank up nerd

#

Known can take months

gilded helm
#

been playing for like 200 hours in the span of like how long

#

when i get my vr im finna break 300 in a week

vocal shard
#

I was normal user at 400 hours

gilded helm
#

lmao wtf

#

ive been normal user since like

#

50

vocal shard
#

But when I merged my steam account I jumped to trusted

rigid crescent
#

you dont need to actually do any of that but it helps

vocal shard
#

You can get trusted without uploading anything

rigid crescent
#

yup

gilded helm
#

yeah i have nothing to upload

#

but id rather not be user for like 500 more years

desert stratus
#

just like

molten gale
#

Most people without uploads take 800+ to get trusted

desert stratus
#

like the game, im not even kidding lol

#

itll happen naturally

molten gale
#

yeah

rigid crescent
#

"play the game" is my usual advice

molten gale
#

yea

#

everything above new user is basically cosmetic

gilded helm
#

wow good thing i like cosmetics

molten gale
#

Like trusted rank has no function

lunar cedar
#

Purple is a nice color though. Very regal

molten gale
#

I like purple

#

I like all colors

#

Apart from brown...

desert stratus
#

brown has its place everywhere except alone

#

red and purple are top-tier colors though

shell zinc
#

brown is a great colour dont diss brown

molten gale
#

Brown just doesnt fit me

desert stratus
#

brown was actually suggested to me by my friend as the color for my avatar's thigh highs since she actually knows color theory

#

the whole palette is so good that im going tto revisit it in the future as i refine my online persona / OC

umbral reef
#

Orange gang assamble unity_chan_dab

desert stratus
#

brown i think works best with "blended" colors such as rose-pinks or rose-reds, though i think its weakest with blue

#

nah, not weakest. it contrasts a lot with blue imo for some reason

#

dont mix brown and blue unless ur smart and actually an artist who's about to tell me why im wrong

#

orang is ok

#

no orang is trustable

molten gale
#

Solar

desert stratus
#

people who like orang i find really fucking fun and reliable to be around, very honest but usually tactless, leaders but small temper, but they never really get angry or rude with people

#

mhm?

molten gale
#

Check random

#

Can you somehow sort your uploaded avatars by the way?

desert stratus
#

as far as i know, not at all > >

molten gale
#

Because I have a few models I kinda wanna upload but I dont want to scroll so far to get to my normal avatars

desert stratus
#

i never remove any of my avatars though, as a sort of "look at how far ive come" deal

#

from the [banned plugin] days to 2019 >u>

errant hare
#

Probably not if someone like Lolathon doesn't have them sorted

molten gale
#

Fuck

faint skiff
#

I have like 50 uploaded now, takes a while, especially when one of my main ones if literally second.

molten gale
#

I have a lot because of varying sizes

#

I have multiple sizes of all my main avatars

desert stratus
#

ive grown very attached to my online persona that i rarely change size or avatar nowadays, but i still keep everything else uploaded for memories and sometimes avatar lessons

molten gale
#

My main oc changed a lot

#

I dont have it as avatar

vocal shard
#

dose any body know the world that is basickly the grate pug but bigger

#

I can remember so many things but nothing important

pure hemlock
#

The future is over-rated

in literally every other online community most people are either US east or US west, not this one tho

#

I'll actually be in Europe for a few weeks but no VR 😦

#

#

Unless Yin has a laptop

jaunty meteor
#

hello

#

how do you build and publish a custom model i tried but it will send a message via email to upload

quartz orbit
#

wut

jaunty meteor
#

it never let me publish it

Becoming verified by the trust system is based on reaching a not time based trust score, which's exact algorithm is unknown to prevent exploitation.

You presumably need to play the game in a normal manner with your VRChat account, walking around, meeting people and also making some friends. Idling won't help.
According to many responses in this discord, a rough estimate would be ** 20-40 hours**, but big exceptions are possible.

Make sure you are not using a steam or oculus account and continue playing the game until you get a notification or e-mail.

http://help.vrchat.com/kb/article/27-why-cant-i-upload-avatars-or-worlds-yet

jaunty meteor
#

so i cant use custom avatars for that reason?

#

???????

vocal shard
#

You have to be atleast new user rank, yeah

jaunty meteor
#

how do i do that?

vocal shard
#

Play vrchat

jaunty meteor
#

for how long

vocal shard
#

It's not time based. It's different for everyone based on activity

#

We don't know any details.

jaunty meteor
#

wow what a good system

#

Big F

ruby needle
#

Fun Fact... if you would have red the text completely you allready would have gotten the answere to your question.

#

So maybe do that next time?

jaunty meteor
#

yeah but im not the most versed in vr chat yet

#

so yeah cut me some slack

vocal shard
#

It's designed so people can't exploit it. So you can't just make a account to upload things to and be malicious. You need to sort of prove to the system that you intend to play for a while on that account

vocal shard
#

How did you guys make friends in vr chat?

rigid crescent
#

talk to people

vocal shard
#

Be yourself. Don't try to force friendship ^^

rigid crescent
#

tru, asking for friends is the best way to not get them

late warren
#

i didn't played VRchat since 2018 what's new ?

I'm starting to dislike public lobbies. Gotta love some random guy who hasn't heard about 80% of the convo interjecting, telling you you're wrong on something that wasn't even the actual topic and then just leaving before you even get to explain what the statment you made actually meant

#

Sorry for the rant, but it's quite frustrating

slate verge
#

@late warren everything, better to see it for yourself

glad bolt
#

It's really a gamble with public instances.

slate verge
#

@torn shoal thats why its random non-sense when joining public lobbies

torn shoal
#

I wasn't even talking to the guy. Heck, he ran past me, stopped, said his piece and then continued onwards

slate verge
#

you really don't know what kind of people you meet and expect

glad bolt
#

Usually, I just mute those types.

torn shoal
#

I try to resolve things peacefully first because I really don't want beef with anyone but my god at least let me finish my damn sentence

late warren
#

it got more.. uuh... 🇧🇷 vrcThinking how do i say that

glad bolt
#

I'm actually curious for study's sake, but do you remember what colour rank they were?

torn shoal
#

Trusted, naturally. So am I for that matter

glad bolt
#

That honestly doesn't surprise me at this point. Thank you.

tall plaza
#

i just saw an anime version of angel dust *(from hazbin hotel pilot)...
that was horrifying

torn shoal
#

I'm honestly wondering if I should even display my purple tag at this point

glad bolt
#

I've had more fun with Known and below my past few times. Trusted has been repetitively ill-behaved in more public instances than say Friends+.

torn shoal
#

The only people I seem to butt heads with occasionally seem to all be trusted users these days

glad bolt
#

Seems to be a trend lately.

torn shoal
#

I mean, it happens very rarely because I don't mean harm to anyone, but when it does, it's usually someone trusted

glad bolt
#

I see.

torn shoal
#

I seem to be getting along with most people though, luckily

#

Situations like that still annoy me greatly though

#

Mostly because I didn't get to explain myself properly

#

It just sucks when you're in public lobbies trying to meet new people to talk to and something like that happens

#

Really sours the mood

glad bolt
#

Hope the rest of your day/evening has more positivity to counterbalance that.

torn shoal
#

Thanks, though it is literally 3 am so it's more of a night/morning situation

#

So I need to drag myself to bed just about now

#

Just had to get that frustration out or sleeping would be impossible

#

So yeah, good night/day/evening/etc

hazy gyro
#

can yall fix your game please

#

like

#

the fact that people can access your ip and ddos is fuckin wack

#

also the fact that somehow people have avatars with literally a billion particles to crash people

#

its getting out of hand

primal oak
#

I wouldn't count on the devs to do much about that, best thing to do is to take matters into your own hands and get a VPN.

#

As for particle crashers, use the particle limiter

hazy gyro
#

we have vpns

hazy gyro
#

sometimes just forget to use em

primal oak
#

Certain VPNs have a setting that prevents you from connecting to the internet unless you are connected to a VPN server

#

I just don't turn off my VPN at all.

hazy gyro
#

it should be up to the devs to secure their players ips

#

so this shit doesnt happen

#

its like

primal oak
#

I agree. However until the devs start to do something I would just take matters into my own hands like I said.

hazy gyro
#

uncommon for people to get ddos this much

#

the fact that its even a thing

#

its been a thing forever

#

10 million dollars and they cant even figure it out, or hire people who actually know how to fix shit.

#

just sayin

#

its getting a bit ridiculous

#

shouldnt have to pay for a vpn on a free to play game

vocal shard
#

The DDos issue is related to steam, not VRChat specially if I recall.

hazy gyro
#

okay

#

so put an anticheat or some shit on the game so these 15 year old kids who think they're cool cant install these clients

#

or put some sort of security at least

vocal shard
#

lul sure it's totally that easy

hazy gyro
#

i mean

#

10 million dollars

#

can do a lot

#

hire someone who knows how to actually do security shit

vocal shard
#

if AAA games can't do it I doubt vrchat can

molten gale
#

Fyi they cant fix the seurity issues afaik

#

Because the way vrchat is made the game puts way too much trust into the client

#

Theyd have to completely redo a lot of the game to fix that

lunar cedar
#

It saves a shit load of money to put lots of trust in the client too. Servers ain't cheap

molten gale
#

yeah

#

Welcome to the trainwreck vrchat

bleak sonnet
#

servers are actually wicked cheap

vocal shard
#

And if particle crashing is that much of an issue, that's what the safety system is for

molten gale
#

Not for so many people

#

Dude I got crashed twice in 670 hours

lunar cedar
#

Server-side validation is not cheap sanvichmann. It's very expensive.

bleak sonnet
#

10 million dollars

molten gale
#

Once a crasher asked me if I wanted someone gone because I gave headpats

hazy gyro
#

dude

molten gale
#

to be exact yesterday in a hub

#

I said no and left

hazy gyro
#

we were just sitting there
havin fun with this kermit
guy shows up in this sketchy ass avatar
my friend makes a joke about his avatar

#

and he gets ddos

#

how is that okay

#

also

molten gale
#

And thats why you respect everyones avatar choice

lunar cedar
#

They're trying to hire people, upgrade infrastructure, and keep current employees paid while running a game that doesn't make any money. $10m isn't much

molten gale
#

Maybe I dont get that stuff because I generally never cause trouble

bleak sonnet
#

jokes =/= disrespect, a joke is virtually harmless

molten gale
#

Some people get triggered by that

rancid nova
#

10 million dollars isnt much in what world

bleak sonnet
#

these people have such thin skin, that they feel the need to control every aspect of a game

rancid nova
#

you guys are regurgitating the most common tropey bullshit but you dont have a fuckin clue

#

how many employees does vrc have? the last number i heard was 26

#

even if theyre making 100k, which is outrageously generous, you're looking at 4 years of development

lunar cedar
#

So the servers must be free? Thanks, you've really enlightened us

rancid nova
#

do you even know how their multiplayer works? they dont have dedicated servers, their servers are just to host data, and that shit is literally as cheap as it has ever been

#

people spouting bullshit about anticheat not being worth it, when basically every hack in this game is the most basic level dll injection/tampering that would get caught almost instantly by any basic anticheat

#

how many games out their uses steams p2p multiplayer system that dont have vrc's issues? i mean were looking at dozens and dozens

#

the major difference is that those games put time and effort into protecting their users

#

the vrc team couldnt give a fuck less about their users, just the bottom line, getting those investments by pretending this game is some creative haven when it is as bad as its ever been in terms of oversexualization and toxicity among the users

#

whats crazy is you got dumbasses that defend them even though the game is obviously in a dogshit state

bleak sonnet
#

preach 🙌

rancid nova
#

why such blind loyalty? dont you want the game to be better? why would you defend the indefensible?

lunar cedar
#

Can you go circle jerk in a dm please?

rancid nova
#

im talking to you and everyone else who tried to argue against an anticheat

#

like were you dropped on your head as a child

#

imagine being a gamer who is against anticheat

#

maybe you have a modded client yourself 🤔

#

aight im done talkin in here pce

hazy gyro
#

most people do nowadays lol

#

gotta love vrc

#

👌

#

funny thing is tho

#

the devs will see this

#

and still not do anything about it lol

ancient void
#

New person question - how do i know which world to go to? And is it okay if I just start talking? I don't want to interrupt anyone

#

I'm noticing a couple of avatars at random just stop working. They just show the grey bot w/ yellow/black caution lines. Is this a VRChat issue, an avatar issue, or both?

hazy gyro
#

yes

next dune
#

Most likely it got deleted.

viral schooner
#

I'd expect nothing less of the game.

#

No, I don't think so. I restarted my game and one of the GreyBotted Avatars is back.

vocal shard
#

Cache maybe?

viral schooner
#

but the other one remains GreyBotted.

#

Possibly. Lemme clear.

#

wheeze 479.83 mb

#

Nope. That doesn't seem to be it either.

#

Because now an avatar that was fine last time has been GreyBotted.

#

and by "last time", I mean literally less than 3 minutes ago.

molten gale
#

When the cache goes over 20gb it just unloads some older things

#

Also then you are likely just seeing quest users with quest exclusive avatars

#

They are gray and have a preview of what they would look like on their chest

viral schooner
#

That's the thing tho, I'm in a private world rn, looking at my own avatars.

molten gale
#

Oh damn

#

I had that issue once

#

Restarted my pc and that fixed ir

viral schooner
#

hm. Aight.

#

dear fucking lord this potato computer has to update and restart

#

looks like I won't find out if it helps for another 3 fucking days.

molten gale
#

Wow

Well. This is goodbye for another 70 years. I'll see you guys when I get out of cryostasis. I'll let you know if this shit fixed it.

hi, just wondering, if i mearge my steam to the vrchat account will i still be able to log in to vvrchat through steam?

faint skiff
#

Yeah, you can merge one Steam account and one Oculus account to a core VRChat account.

dreamy sigil
#

oh sweet, thank you, only cause i like to see who is online to see if its worth going on vrchat but cant do it outside of going in it through steam XD

faint skiff
#

Well, when you merge them then they all become the same account so you can log in via any.

dreamy sigil
#

oh thats good then, thank you both 😄

tender lark
#

I love logging in only for someone to instantly have a problem with me "oh I've seen that avatar way too many times I can't deal with this" referring to my avatar then the guy crashes me on spot, getting the crashed error message

pseudo bobcat
#

Don't enable animations on non friends

covert blade
#

@tender lark Safety settings

#

Use 'em

acoustic galleon
#

cant wait to try vr games soon. so far i have superhot and beat saber on my starting list

glossy wharf
#

@pseudo bobcat orkel is gae

fringe shoal
#

Yeah, I only have audio and avatars on in every safety setting. Don't want to bother with having to deal with any spamming emotes. If I see a person who seems fine I'll just enable it individually by showing their avatar.

covert blade
#

I have avatar and shader

#

Used to have shaders off until I realized how broken some avatars looked and how little it contributed to safety since 99% of the time it's something triggered via custom animations

faint skiff
#

Yup, shaders on, animations off. Works 99.9% of the time.

covert blade
#

But half the time I have safety off anyways

#

Then again I have yet to run into a crasher. Usually avatars just tend to be annoying, but not gamebreaking

pure hemlock
#

I ran into someone last night that could nearly crash everyone through all safety settings. Crashed a few people and dropped me to like 5fps. Think they doing something to spam the game with packets or something.

covert blade
#

That wouldnt be avatar related then

#

Curious....

pure hemlock
#

Not entirely sure how they did it. My only guess is some form of networking spam or like rapidly moving around items on the map (Was on a murder map) or something. 🤷

covert blade
#

Maybe it was overloaded performance wise?

#

Ah, Murder

#

I tend to get 15 FPS randomly there

pure hemlock
#

They were using a client as they were already hacking murder and flying and shit. I've been crashed before through safety settings or kicked from lobbies by client users. But this one was different.

covert blade
#

Huh

pure hemlock
#

They lagged everyone out and dabbed on everyone while they were doing it lol

fringe shoal
#

Ah, yes, the power trip.

pure hemlock
#

A few people crashed but most recovered

covert blade
#

gg

pure hemlock
#

It's kind of sad exploits like the ability to just kick someone from a lobby still exist.

covert blade
#

That's partially why I don't worry too much about having safety off

#

If someone really wants me off the instance, they'll find a way

pure hemlock
#

Like avatar stuff or other exploits are more understandable. But my client just trusting a hackers client to tell me that I've been kicked...

covert blade
#

Yup

#

I guess I've been pretty lucky that the worst that has happened to me was that one guy making fun of my name and hitting on you

pure hemlock
#

Not to mention there's no security checks on if someone is allowed in an instance or not. If you have the ID of an instance, you can get in on any account regardless of the instance type.

covert blade
#

I mean, let's start with the basics

#

There is absolutely no check if the room limit is exceeded when joining

pure hemlock
#

I'm fine with that though.

covert blade
#

20+ Murder 2 is kind of a laggy mess though

ivory folio
#

You can't get into a private/friends/friends+ instance with just the ID

molten gale
#

heccccc

pure hemlock
#

It'd be annoying if you can't join on friends just because they're at the room limit, especially with no other way to message them in game

#

Yes you can Moons

covert blade
#

@ivory folio If you have the invite link, you can

ivory folio
#

You need to know the ID of the room owner and the nonce of the instance

pure hemlock
#

If you have the ID, you can get into ANY instance. Even invite only.

ivory folio
#

Essentially a password

covert blade
#

You know, Yin already did that

pure hemlock
#

Just takes one person getting an invite and sending the ID to someone else

ivory folio
#

Yeah but you can't just get into one alone without that help

pure hemlock
#

I know but that's not what I said

#

I said if you have the ID, you can get in regardless.

ivory folio
#

By ID I thought you meant the instance ID, which you need more than that

pure hemlock
#

All you need is the instance ID

#

I've tested it myself just a few weeks ago

covert blade
#

#

The security holes are truly impressive

pure hemlock
#

I mean I get it's a 'early access' game blah blah blah

#

'small team' blah blah blah

#

I get it. I've worked at start ups, with very low budgets.

#

But it's just tiring after 2 years of this.

#

Praying for Udon to save us

covert blade
#

😂

#

You wish

#

I would not be surprised if it turns out to be a giant disappointment

pure hemlock
#

Maybe. But I will be hopeful for now lol

#

I will also pray for another social VR game like VRChat to get off the ground successfully just in case 😛

vocal shard
#

Hey! vrcHappy

#

Hello everyone!!

vocal shard
#

@pure hemlock most clients are able to do that

celest frost
#

is there like, any way to properly set my height so I can touch the floor in maps on oculus rift

faint skiff
#

The issue there is that your avatar's body proportions don't match your own. The best you can get is to change your height in-game so that you're not on tip-toes or stood with your legs bent.

#

Ideally you make an avatar with roughly the same proportions as yourself which would then not have the issue.

celest frost
#

im not sure about that

#

no matter what avatar im in, the floor is always like 4 inches below my real life floor

#

scratch that

vocal shard
#

It's the avatar proportions. Almost every avatar is like that that's cartoon or anime. Ones like x or y bot are more realistically proportioned

#

best you can do is change your real user height, depending on the avatar i have to set my "real user height" to 5"0 - 5"10 for the floor to sync up properly.

There are some programs like Playspace mover or Advance VR that makes things easier to line up.

rip servers

vocal shard
#

what

#

hello

pseudo bobcat
#

avatars not loading, random disconnections and rejoins, freezing people, so definitely rip servers

#

the most annoying is when i freeze for everyone else but i can still move around and listen to them talk, but they cannot hear me talk and then i get a forced disconnection/rejoin into the same world

rigid crescent
#

works fine on my end, could your your connection. was anyone else in the world having the issue

warped creek
#

I had this happen in The Great Pug. Everyone went silent and got frozen in time for like 10 seconds.

#

After it stopped everyone commented on what just happened.

rigid crescent
#

hmm, could be a few hiccups then yeah

pseudo bobcat
#

ye i was in a world where people kept commenting about it, people froze for others but not for some, etc

warped creek
#

Also hello @covert blade , I know Maebbie for a while and I was in his hub for a bit too.

covert blade
#

I have been summoned

#

@warped creek Good day.... oh, I see

oo i see a guy not loading now

what are good worlds to meet people and make friends on

pseudo basalt
#

Probably anything that isn't the box or the rain room and has people in

vocal shard
#

^

#

the only place Ive found where people want to have a legit conversation is the campfire room at 1am

#

every other world has their own established cliques it feels like or just spams music

twin cove
#

I need help trying to find a world. I was in a voice call a few months ago as my friend screenshared VR. They were in a world that was outside, spacey sky, looked like a park at night and I think there was a swing. The avatars were [or mostly] male and were very well made. They looked like demon boys and had really nice shaders and effects. But we can't remember this world's name and I've been searching for it for ages. Does anyone have any ideas?

pseudo basalt
#

Well a lot of people have established friend groups. It's generally not that easy to fit into one from the get go so you probably want to avoid mirror people and go world hopping and find some new world with people exploring maybe

vocal shard
#

oh okay

umbral reef
#

Find that lost drunk stranger with a friend group. Kidnap that drunk guy and wait for his group to slowly join and kidnap you back

pseudo basalt
#

It's easier to strike a conversation when doing something

vocal shard
#

hold on whaT

#

@pseudo basalt does that mean I should join more game worlds?

pure hemlock
#

Lower population world's typically relaxing ones usually you can find more laid back people who just want to chat

pseudo basalt
#

I don't personally go to game worlds, so I can't vouch for that

pure hemlock
#

Game worlds seem to be very child filled lately if they support quest

pseudo basalt
#

I think I made 2 friends that I may or may not see again when hanging out with a friend in friends +

#

Apart from that I haven't made any friends in many months

vocal shard
#

ya honestly all Ive been doing is world hopping the most popular servers in the "hot" section hoping to find someone

rigid crescent
#

the only public maps i frequent solo are usually Pugs, it's kinda just always been that way for me and I've met a lot of cool people there.

#

but it's usually later at night, like you said

pure hemlock
#

Nier automata flower world used to be a good place to meet chill people if that's what you are looking for

#

Not sure if it's till alive anymore now though

vocal shard
#

ya I feel like all the chill and really down to earth people play at night

rigid crescent
#

it's pretty sleepy now

vocal shard
#

@pure hemlock it is Ive been to it, but just found cliques people

pseudo basalt
#

I made most friends just hanging around in gaia night, back when people just ran around. It actually didn't have any mirror either

Gaia night was great for making friends back in the day

#

But I can't imagine people haven't gotten sick of nier flowers

#

It unfortunately made me really dislike the song due to how much time I spent there

pure hemlock
#

That song relaxes me like nothing else

pseudo basalt
#

I burn out really quickly on repetitive things

#

Especially songs

#

Can't really help it vrcSad

vocal shard
#

sounds really cool though, wish I was playing when that was a thing

rigid crescent
#

i don't usually play with music on, I've got my own stuff playing

pseudo basalt
#

I can't really have a browser running in the background because it screws up my performance a bit, and in a more populated world it matters

pure hemlock
#

The ether atoll map or whatever it's called by mabie seems like a good place lately to meet people.

vocal shard
#

so what section of worlds should I be looking into if my goal is to meet and connect with people personally

pure hemlock
#

I've been in a few publics of it and met decent people

pseudo basalt
#

Well you could look at active and scroll to the right a bit so you don't go into the most populated ones, because those usually are a mixed bag

pure hemlock
#

And the maps runs really good

rigid crescent
#

yeah ether atoll has been pretty lit lately, i dont really know why but its a nice world

pseudo basalt
#

I'd look into new worlds as well, especially if they're populated

vocal shard
#

oh okay thank you @pseudo basalt i really appreciate it, its my 3rd day of VR chat

pseudo basalt

nice, have fun

Woah! Suddenly got access to chat and I knew there were gonna be more channels but I didn't think there'd be this many! xD

dang still cant load other people's avatars other than my friend's

west falcon

Hi everyone! I'm Soura. I go by Cazaro on VRChat. I don't really play much since I can't really use my MIC and won't be able to for a bit, but as soon as I fix it up I'll probably be playing more often.

pale timber
#

welcome

#

Hello!

pale timber
#

hi

west falcon
#

I don't really know what I could say about myself that pertains here, but I guess I can say I'm a hobbyist in a couple different arts. I technically also know Spanish, but I'm not that good at speaking it; and I'm currently learning Japanese as well.

O.O

Sorry, this game has made me actively dislike purple. :c

shell zinc
#

because of.. trusted? o.O

glad bolt
#

🍪

#

And there's your cookie, bravo.

hazy gyro
#

honestly

#

same aly

#

trusted users are the worst tbh

#

a majority of trusted users just crash people lmao

rancid nova
#

its funny that youd think on a f2p game with so many cheaters visitors would be sketchy, but since there is zero threat of a ban all the crashers and hackers are still trusted

hazy gyro
#

if i knew that my reports actually did something and the person i reported got banned

#

i would report so many more people

rancid nova
#

ive had these dudes tell me they can unban themselves with their clients, if thats true thats hilariously insane, does the sdk vrc uses for its users actually expose those sorts of things

jagged zodiac
#

i think it’s silly to judge people on how much time they’ve played vrchat for

hazy gyro
#

lol

#

im a trusted user. i aint judgin people who just play to play

rancid nova
#

i have never been crashed by a visitor, at least not in the past few months

#

ive only ever been ddosed by trusted users

#

and that has happened like 10 times now

rigid crescent
#

"unban themselves" lol

hazy gyro
#

ran into some hackers in a pug one time

rigid crescent
#

don't believe most of what you hear lol

jagged zodiac
#

all trusted user means is they’ve been playing a long time though

rancid nova
#

i believe anything when it comes tot he vrc sdk

jagged zodiac
#

they put a lot of hours in

#

nothing else

rigid crescent
#

Can't get banned if you're never caught or reported though

hazy gyro
#

reports dont do anything tho

rancid nova
#

is users can straight up rename themselves, send messages to other users through invites, kick people from lobbies, then i question what is exposed on all fronts

hazy gyro
#

thats the thing

rigid crescent
#

Seeing as the "VRC SDK" has nothing to do with a ban...

rancid nova
#

it has to do with data access...

rigid crescent
#

nor does it have anything to do with sending messages, kicks, or anything else

rancid nova
#

yes it does what

rigid crescent
#

are we talking about the same SDK?

rancid nova
#

no were not

rigid crescent
#

oh you mean API stuff

rancid nova
#

youre thinking of their unity sdk, im talking about what their application uses to call data and functions related to the game

rigid crescent
#

I guess they're pretty similar now that I think about it vrcThinking

#

I don't think anyone is unbanning themselves or changing their name, they're probably just using an alt

#

seeing as bans are serverside and not clientside

rancid nova
#

ive witnessed people changing their names

#

on the fly

rigid crescent
#

Does it persist after a relog?

#

I'm guessing that's why users used to be able to "ban" you and you'd just restart the game and it'd get rid of it,

#

or it's similar at least

#

that is pretty sketchy tho

rancid nova
#

never said they could ban me

#

but even somethin like kickin people from lobbies

rigid crescent
#

I'm saying it used to be a thing so im guessing its similar. THe name change likely doesn't persist after a reboot

#

yeah the kicking is annoying

glad bolt
#

@jagged zodiac It's not judging based on time. It's judged solely on the behaviour of the high majority who wear that rank. Could give a crap less what colour rank anyone is, but when it's a total group doing it on a daily basis, I have to actively re-evaluate my choices. SonicWaitAMinute

ooh

Woah!

Yes please!

jagged zodiac

As stated in our Blog post (https://medium.com/@vrchat/vrchat-valve-index-support-and-the-gesture-toggle-system-742ec3ae016e) this is the eventual plan. We're working on implementing as much of the Index Controller featureset (such as Gesture Toggle or limited finger "tracking") into other controllers as the hardware permits.

#

they're going to eventually implement toggle for other controllers too :)

oh gods please i've only just started playing (vive) and the amount of times i pull out a sword or something just trying to move is infuriating

someone else having the problem when loading in vrchat you be stuck at 0% all the time even when reinstalling the game and verifying it n such?

floral quiver

i think something is wrong with vrchat cas i cant even load into private worlds without dc

#

like making new instances

cinder walrus

Yeah game is kinda broken i think

naisu. The problem is still there.

#

Wonderful.

vocal shard
#

okay someone help me
every time i get into vrchat and try to speak, i can hear myself and the mouth on my avatar isn't moving.
what the fuck is going on?

jagged zodiac
#

mayhaps the visemes are messed up on it,, try another avatar

vocal shard
#

it's with every avatar that i have saved

indigo fern
#

are they your own avatars or public one?

vocal shard
#

public ones

#

Please do not post the same statement across multiple channels, thanks PaciScream

anyways, how do i fix my problem?

Doesit happen to all avatars?

I have a problem where if I join an online friend they’re not there

Anyone else having a weird issue where you gotta restart steam everytime you wanna start steamvr?

Oh ok

cough I don't need tutorials from Tupper, I got UNL playing.

We need a list of known bugs and issues and their cause and/or how to correct them, but I'm not going to compile it myself. 😂

#

VRC Troubleshooting.

#

Or something. So many common issues answered regularly.

#

Then you can plaster the link everywhere and people can go there first instead of asking the same question 40 times a day. Not that I blame the people that feel the need to do that, because we don't have the aforementioned troubleshooting page.

#

I'm sure support would prefer to not be emailed for every minor thing that's easily corrected.

There's the list on the canny website

Is is normal that my friendlist does not update? Like i join in and the friendlist stays the same until i change like 3 times the world

hollow sluice
#

Yeah

agile needle
#

Switching back and forth between different tabs in the menu a bunch of times will eventually refresh it, they probably enforce a delay between updates

faint skiff
#

To get it to update, open the menu and WAIT

#

Don't touch anything. First the social will update, then friends, then groups. If you do anything, the process will interrupt and it won't refresh.

#

It's worked fine for me since I've done that. You can see each row update as it happens.

covert blade
#

Can confirm

#

Ever since I've started waiting a few seconds before doing anything it refreshes just fine for me

rigid crescent
#

my favs are always instant, its weird

fiery swift
#

I have a question. If I'm trying on an avatar, and it looks to me like an effect fills a room, is that what everyone else sees too? Or only myself?

#

There are some avatars I really like, but feel they could get me in trouble.

covert blade
#

Everyone with safety off and your friends will see it

#

Unless you want to be hidden by everyone, dont use it

fiery swift
#

Like there's this Jotaro avatar, his Ora Ora animation fills the entire room with punches I think

covert blade
#

Wouldnt recommend using that

fiery swift
#

Ok thanks for letting me know

#

What about if an avatar turns everything black and white? Do I just see that, or everyone? It only does it for a few seconds, but feel it could still be annoying to others.

covert blade
#

Always assume it does that for everyone

fiery swift
#

I'm guessing that effect won't annoy people as long as I don't spam it?

steep ginkgo
#

@faint skiff allright thank you will try that later :)

faint skiff
#

@fiery swift It will definitely annoy anyone (and everyone) in VR immediately, as with anything that screws with your vision.

fiery swift
#

I better get rid of it then. It's a shame :/ Bright side is, one more favorites slot.

fiery stump
#

my vrchat has a problem that I can't login my account .It is always logining,but can't enter

drifting plover
#

is your computer a laptop or desktop? @fiery stump

vocal holly
#

hmmmmmm

fiery swift
#

Wait, when I said black and white, I meant more like monochrome, like on old TVs. If an avatar animation turned things monochrome for a couple seconds, would I be fine if I don't spam it, or would that still annoy people?

covert blade
#

@fiery swift Anything messing with anyones vision will annoy them

#

Unless they specifically want to see it and are fine with it I wouldnt do it

#

Please be keep in mind that some users are pretty sensitive to that and might get sick if you mess with their vision

fiery swift
#

If it helps, it's the derp princess bubblegum avatar

covert blade
#

Just use something normal

fringe shoal
#

Unless you're dealing with other memers I suggest not.

fiery swift
#

Ok I guess I'll remove it then, or save for when I'm with other memers

indigo fern
#

and thats a wrap folks 👏

#

hi

digital rune
#

question for desktop users, is there a button i can hold down just so it would lock my body movement but still move my head?

covert blade
#

Nope

idle dew
#

Impossible

pale timber
#

you can modify avatars you made to do more or less of that

digital rune
#

like it works in headset more, just make it so it wont rotate the body when you look around

indigo fern
#

the only way to get that perfectly is in full body

pale timber
#

also don't make your avatar static if you want that effect to show more

drifting plover
#

i love people who use full-body because, u can look up to them in a special way.

vocal shard
#

@hollow breach I do have my mic on

digital rune
#

there a way to text type?

covert blade
#

Only in worlds with a keyboard

fiery swift
#

I wish there were instructions on how to use different avatars. Some avatars, I just don't know how to trigger certain animations, but end up triggering them when I don't mean to

#

Like I end up failing to use some animation when pressing a button, yet when I lightly half press it it suddenly works

sharp ocean
#

I assume that is up to the creators of that avatar lol

fiery swift
#

I found out one thing for sure. The buttons are very sensitive

#

And if I practically hover a finger over a button it triggers the animation xD

floral flaxBOT
#

There are 6337 users in VRChat currently

sharp ocean
#

Yeah my main avatar I use to do when I was on desktop is horribly annoying on vr headset...movement sets off animations

fiery swift
#

I wish there was kinda a deadzone thingy for buttons, except it makes it so the buttons are less sensitive

pale timber
#

you get used to controlling that eventually

sharp ocean
#

Index looks to be better for buttons atleast

white lichen
#

every time i join VRchat and stay , VRchat instant closes it after a minute or 2

pale timber

memory issue?

idk

vrchat be buggy like that sometimes

oh nvm, had to update steam
