Animation
@fleet raven Audacity --> fade out I think it's called
Thanks but I'm talking about in vrchat worlds when you walk away from the source of the music I don't want it cutting off hard
Hmm
Gotta mess with the falloff and the settings in the vrchat audio spatialization thing.
Think it's like.. Gain and reach? Something like that? And the reach determines how far away you have to be for the sound to cut off completely
Ok thank uuu
Oh no, it's far. Gain and far.
np
Wut?
almost weekend
Someone was using a client last night (on desktop) just to fly around and no-clip through the room, was pretty annoying but I can't easily record it to report unfortunately.
thats interesting
Desktopers be like
Hey is anyone on?
No
Anyone who is on likely isn't talking in here
what
i am
I played about year and a half ago without vr and returned today with VR headset and wow what a world of difference it is, though now I don't have friend who play VRChat so I don't really talk to anyone or respond with voice, well at least playing around in VR is fun enough
yeah, it changes how so many worlds feel ๐
especially if you find worlds that play with scale
there are events that happen each week if you're interested in those
can send you a link to the vrchat events discord
I stick to most basic worlds like pug
and see if one interests you, might help you meet people who are regulars in vrc
Thanks but anything that involves me having to speak is scaring me off
yeah no worries, I can understand that ๐
@mighty root black cat and pug west are pretty top tier public worlds
Well, that's where I've stuck when I played before and that's where I stick now, difference is I come in for a little, do VR stuff with hands and get bored, before I actually knew people playing it. Now it's uhh hard, since I have difficulty talking to people I don't know with voice, though VR is great for nodding or shaking the head
And petting people. I just wish avatars I used didn't do some stupid animations when I try to press buttons or even lightly touch them
I had to stop using some fav avatars myself after getting vr cos I kept triggering animations :/
Talking can be hard with strangers. I personally stay mute until I am comfortable around people most of the time.
It doesn't help most people seem to talk with strangers just fine so I feel like a third wheel often enough in one day to notice
I just suck at small talk and am paranoid of eboys in public
What's an eboy
Wolfboy with emmisive tatoos usually
Someone who will jump you for being a girl and beg you to friend them, add them on discord, instragram, etc.
Ahh, makes sense why you wouldn't want to talk in public instance
You will most likely get better with time
Ah not really I've got progressively worse
I've noticed it when I returned to vrchat
Didn't have the courage to talk to strangers at all so far, could do it even if little when I played last without VR
Isn't it because you switched form desktop to vr?
VR does make it far more immersive and therefore a bit more overwhelming.
But then again it's also been over year and a half so I lean more towards that
It took me a few hundred hours of VR to start talking with strangers a bit, just takes time and finding comfortable situations
Perhaps
I was thinking "it helped me come out my shell quite a bit" thinking it happened quickly, but I just realised I have nearly 700 hours in VRC racked up now.
That's what I'm hoping for as well, but so far results don't seem good, but then again it's been about 30 hours since I started using VR and only played maybe 2 or 3 hours of VRchat from that
Just be social 4head
Pfft, 3 hours is absolutely nothing. I barely spoke in my first 10 hours or more.
Took me literally 400 hours before I unmuted my microphone for the first time so... It can take awhile lol
Hopefully it doesn't take you as long as it did for me though
oof
Finding people chatting about something and eventually getting pulled into the conversation helps.
Big tips though - avoid younger people and anyone speaking loudly, it's not likely to go smoothly.
I doubt I can play VRChat for 400 hours even with VR
I'd be playing it all day but I get bored quite fast after novelty of swinging my arms wears off
Just gotta find the right people who you enjoy being with
It seems boring until you make friends and want to spend more time with them in interesting places.
Yeah, what Yin said, I was getting bored of the nonsense in the Pug and stuff, but then I made friends that I actually wanted to spend time with (which is incredibly rare for me) and my view changed quite a lot.
Gotta talk to people to find friends
Not really. I made a few hundred friends without talking once.
Turns out a social environment starts to be fun and rewarding once you start being social. Who'd've thunk it?
Although this was in 2017 and people were different back then
Oh I mean I did get added by 2 people without either talking but I kinda doubt I'll ever see them again so I don't exactly consider them friends
Hmmm
Be a cute loli and get headpats you'll make a ton of friends as a mute that way
Probably.
Lol I'm a mute creepy android girl. 
The slowest way to make friends is to wait for people to come to you.
When I was mute I mostly murdered people and beat them up
Dunno why they friended me
The fastest way is to engage in a conversation, politely and respectably.
I have avatar that summons a gun and shoots it but seems like most people dont care when I use it
For some reason
Great way to meet people who don't suck is join the VRChat Events discord (pinned messages in #events) and go to some of the events.
^
I have a few "friends" that never, or very rarely talk, so it is possible to still make friends in that state, although I use the word "friends" tentatively as I don't really feel like I can trust them without them opening up somewhat.
You can find robots, cats and giant birds there.
I am scared of giant booby birds tho

Since events have a lot lower tolerance for troublemakers people there are gonna be the kind who can manage themselves without screaming for hours on end.
I made all my closest friend through other friends and made those friends by quietly observing who was worth the effort.
I'd say a more interesting avatar will garnish attention, the loli thing is a little tired and, in the case of mutes, feels slightly exploitive.

We actually had that incident just this past meetup, there was one screaming for no reason and he got chucked out within seconds xD
(and by interesting, I don't mean annoying or obnoxious...)
Yeah, everyone assumes a mute loli is a dude, regardless of what the reality is or not.
Yes. Avatars start conversations. Those are my feathers.
@faint skiff depends for who! New user like me (sort of new) I love petting all of them
Maybe if you played for 700 hours it's boring but not if you played 3 hours
Is it weird that I prefer my cute loli's to be dudes irl?
Guys being in feminine roles is cute
I have no issues petting dudes, I just prefer they don't look like 8 year old girls..
I dont care who I'm petting even if they look 8 but sound 56
Right? It just feels ughhh in a bad touch kind of way
am I doing something wrong if I imagine every mute female avatar to be a female irl?
I look at their avatar not do mental gymnastics about who they are irl
Oh yeah sure they're 3000 years old. They look 8 for fucks sake.
But I do mental gymnastics when I want to speak so I don't ever speak
Nico that's the right way to do it imo. Too many people paranoid of peoples genders and stuff. Who cares. Treat them how they express themselves until they ask otherwise
Anyway by sound of it I'm not being overly weird, so I'll stay a mute
Do w/e makes you comfortable, just realize it can be harder to form relationships mute
I got adopted into my friends group as a mute but actually had a better time when I started talking.
Well can't really do a 180 and start talking to everyone
lol I got added by a japanese dude holding some event. from what little I can understand, he was explaining that they host the event every [couldn't tell the days] and have new snacks every event and that im free to as many as I'd like, then
i'd been there before at the end of the last one because i joined on a friend
it was some fun RP stuff
free snacks ๐ฒ
Noice
yeah, first was my sakuramochi then he brought me tea, what I assume was miso soup, and some pickled vegies with rice
super nice dude, that was a comfy event
Huh
lmao for some reason i got reminded of the shrek scene where he was drinking the hand washing water
LOL
why you drinking sanitation water mic smh my head
oh also someone played moonlight sonata on the piano
i can't find a baby yoda avatar .Sad
yeah, it's only cloneable rn
lol
well judging by how few people have found it, i'd guess so
i mean i have it lol you just have to find someone with it
you got baby yoda in his pod
and no im not gonna add you so you can clone it lol im just saying it's only cloneable
@pure hemlock i have avatar that is loli
So do 95% of people in VRC...
Yikes
Hey can someone with a Rift S go pretend to stick a spork up their butt as a magic trick and tell me if their hands got to their butts? My Rift sensor fell and wouldn't start up for some reason and it terrified me. I don't know what i'd do if i couldnt do my magic tricks.
Dang life without butt sporks would suck
What in the helk did I read lol
That's such a specific trick 
Lol
You will lose tracking but it tries
Spork. Or Spork Not. There is no try.
Anyone know what the VR capture plugin for OBS is called? I just reformatted and I forget. Is it openVR?
Opennvr is pretty much steamvr so id assume thats it
Yes its called OpenVRCapture or something similar
whats the best way to get it? The last update i see on this one page is 2018.
dunno why that would be a problem?
figured if it hasnt been updated in a while it might not work but if thats the one i had this whole time then it should be fine.
from my experience it always works
Try it out.
No need to update something that isnt broken.
@iron thunder are you tying to do mixed capture?
try LIV
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BTW. y'all should go sub to him ๐
Ty. I love you. Whats Liv? I might try that. I really want to move some stuff in this room and set up a camera but i dont know if it fits my style.
Right now i just want to make sure i can capture VRChat with full resolution. OpenVR was the best option. At one point though.. I was recording the VRCHAT desktop exe and getting a zoomed out view and it just changed. All the support people basically said they didn't even know it could record with a bigger FOV like I had it.. lmao That shit is still a mystery to me.

Oh, you could just capture the display mirror window
yeah, that always looked bad to me. OpenVR has been the best.
downside: that includes your personal ids and stuff for vrchat
upside: steamvr supports smoothing
honestly i'd rather have a little bit zoomed in "normal" view then black bars on the sides
LIV also supports smoothing, and it's great
anyway to get a human to respond to my ticket? Been banned for using a modified client but i've never used one? Just got a bot response that didnt answer any of my questions ๐
I zoomed my OpenVR in a little and it gave me a pretty good view. I just had to look UP a little more than usual knowing that it wouldn't capture peoples foreheads.
My vrchat desktop capture.. the mic is just cut in half.
if you already opened a moderation ticket at http://help.vrchat.com/new then wait till you get a response.
There is no bot responses except for the initial one, only maybe template answeres.
well all i got as a response to my questions was appeal denied due to evidence. I asked if they could check if some other IP accessed my account and if there was any way to change my password while banned to stop them from logging in. also would like to know what evidence since i never touched a modified client
while annoying i'll wait out the ban but i dont wanna be banned again for nothing
i don't know how i could prevent being banned again if it is in fact detecting something
and make sure you don't associate with people or programs like that.
Not even using that mod that lets you change into any "public" avatar?
hey does enyone wanna roleplay?
You mean ingame?
Oh shit Lhun is in here

but of course ๐
wait, @twin fractal
you're in ontario? Hentai dude follows you??
I'm the starstruck one, lol
your tracks are bangers.
dain has bangers?
damn these are bangers tf
I'll totally jam all this into my citypop map if they respond lol
I need to update it anyway
๐ฒ these slap
I know right? o.o
Wat up Gamerz?
Hello Internet and welcome to behind the meme
@slim temple oh shit someone recognized me ๐ค
omg the real dain?
Your YouTube vids showed me blender basics
Your sound cloud has shown my ears joy
Lemmie put your stuff in my citypop map!
Gotta update for unity 2018 soon
I'm so glad I was able to help. New video on all the changes to vrchat soon
Sure thing and yeah they helped a lot
It really do feel like that on the internet. Wild
Rift S has arrived. Gotta finish work, though. :(
Stay Focused
lmao
Enjoy your Rift S and I have one too so if you need help or something hmu
Though I got mine yesterday
I need to meet some of you people, jeez.
Me
Yooou..?
Yes
wdym meet
Lol Not the creepy unreasonable kind.
I'll have to wait like a week. Internet's down. I just see you guys in this discord enough to recognize you.
oh nvm not me then
Pfft.
I'm not scared of meeting new people. I just don't usually keep a couple hundred people on my lists.
xD
I met most actives here
Collector. ๐
I'm noticing certain people sticking to certain channels. It's interesting.
Some people never ever enter certain channels.
๐ช

I have my own server just to stockpile my own custom emojis.
No one in it but meee~
I have a server in common with all my friends, so I didn't feel like dragging people into mine. I'm minimalist anyway, so it'd just be another thing to manage. D:
lowkey ads
Well I do have 2 of the chat mods there as well
And its a place for friends so no randoms get in
i like chatting with friends... most friends are nice.
I have a server in common with a buuunch of the regulars/uber creators somehow. So I'm pretty comfy in there. It's also one of my better learning environments.
I think it was restricted too. But I'm in there, so maybe not. LUL
It's lindesu's server.
having friends must be nice
I'm going to be too boring to add for a bit. Don't worry. You aren't missing out.
what are friends?
mythological creatures
2 Full time jobs for a couple months. \o/
oh, so they don't exist, just fantasies
even vrchat wont help
Quit that Quitter talk.
Some day you'll suddenly realize you've got people and you won't even remember where you got them. All of those people you'll think of will make you feel like you're the luckiest person. It's only a matter of time.
Don't worry.
Right
I've cried when I had those moments of realization. Literally cried.
One day. Not soon
VRC is a good way to get there, tbh. It's how I did. It only took a couple months of chance encounters.
It's much easier than real life. I'd have never met my best friend. He's literally on the other side of the planet on an island in the middle of the ocean.
lol
I doubt I'm that patient
It'll snowball once you make a few.
Also been talking from VR this entire time
Lol Wow.
fun
Can always add me in VRC. It'll just be a bit before I'll be on again, but I check the website for notifications.
It's hard to make friends when you cant always use your mic
Really
Oh well nvm me then
It takes time to feel comfortable.
I dont use my mic cause i have tourettes so
i just do motions
Ya
People don't always pressure you. Those that do, aren't always worth it. But sometimes they're genuine and mean the best for you.
It's freaky to leave the comfort zone. But sometimes it is worthwhile.
Ya it is
nobody pressured me to mic luckily
I have Index but no internet for the time being.
Dang
Lol Mobile discord.
And cool
OBVIOUSLY I shouldn't have rushed to get the Index. lmao
No, it's just life. Index wasn't to blame.
rift s
Nice
I'm Tree
Yes
Im from steam maybe thats why
sent
I got deranked from known to new user, am I still able to rank back up to known?
I kind of really find VRchat to be interesting and now I want to buy my first headset for this game
That's common.
I really feel like VRC sells more headsets than most other VR experiences.
Hence the investments those companies have poured into it.
do it
I'm gonna do it when the s goes on sale
Hey kiwis i invited you if you want to join
Sadly golden age passed so most people dont pay attention even if you have vr
You've almost gotta keep coming back for more than just people though.
Golden age will come and go.
The game is just so weird and fascinating
People cycle out and in.
Yeah but 5000 is still pretty good
Yes, for what it actually is. And many just take breaks.
reminder that im still in vr when typing
Sometimes for half a year to a year and come back.
its cool
when they make vrchat 2, thats when the swarm will come back
future is here boomer
Lol When we have the tools to make what the common user wants more easily, more people will come back.
They're getting there.
I make avatars, but worlds are really the lifeblood, I've started to think.
When more interesting worlds are coming out, ones that can keep people interested, more people will come.
yeah I think that worlds are far more interesting than the characters
Both are important, but you can't flex Avatar's unique traits in just any world.
I mean you can.. but to lesser effect.
game too laggy for bigger worlds
lol It's not necessarily the game's fault.
Other apps like this actually run at lower framerates than this.
To be completely honest.
And they have less going on.
Big worlds are a matter of the person that made them optimizing the world. Not VRC.
Lakuza's FF world is pretty big and runs pretty well for me considering.
It's all doable.
people make it laggy
People with unoptimized avatars dooo. Wow, I sound preachy, and I don't like sounding preachy.
But it's also true.
Can have over a dozen in Lakuza's and be fine if people dress for the occasion.
So to speak.
VRC let's us upload our own things so people confuse VRC's performance with the performance of the people uploading to VRC. There are plenty of improvements needed in VRC, of course. But lag is hard to control when anything can be injected into the game by the user base.
They get grumped at for limits, but it's either limits or lag.
So I gladly work within limits, when possible.
I'm glad that the performance limits arnt enforced as it would cut down on creativity. Letting creators create and users curate what they want to see is the best solution imo
I agree, but a lot of people like their body covered in colliders and having lots of bones and don't really understand.
And seem offended when you wish they'd change.
So it has two sides.
I say more power to them, since we have automatic systems that can be used to hide overuse
holy, thats a 200 iq statement right there about users curating
tafi avatars as placeholders 
I doubt they will ever allow people to assign placeholders for others as one of the reasons to hide peopls avatars is if its NSFW, but their placeholder could be NSFW as well
I still think it's a good idea.
Something more understandable would be to set the placeholder that YOU see when others are hidden, so that you can set something that isn't the grey robot for example
id set all of my blocked to the old loading blue man
Maybe, but then everyone still looks the same.
Imo I like the design of the new loading avatar, but I don't like the design of the grey robot
But I still wouldn't replace an instance with it.
It's not very functional.
I agree with the nsfw comment. That was a quick one. And having a hard avatar block sounds like a hassle.
Lol No reason to add an additional step to block an avatar then block the block avatar.
you could pick out of a selection of avatars, insted of freely (like the default avatars) as a alternative
If they were to do custom "blocked" avatars, they would all need manual approval to make sure they aren't overkill or against TOS or whatever. I do like FPaul's idea though
Maybe.
i brought this up long time ago, same way you can have a quest version and pc version of one avatar, so you appear optimized for quest users and the normal you for pc players. why limit this only for quest, make it a toggle for anyone, an optimised preview mode if you will. so you can have 3 modes for users: show avatar/show optimized/hide entirely(aka gray bot)
That's kinda what I meant anyway.
Picking from a selection of avatars as the one you become when avatar blocked.
Only issue with having it work like the quest is I don't have the time to make another version of all of my avatars. A one trick suits all solution would be a better idea
Maybe they can build up their featured and publics list and have them all optimized enough to serve as blocked avatar choices.
Yes. I like this idea.
Then, people that don't pick one can just default to the gray.
combine our ideas then, show avatar mode - shows you entirely, pc version
show optimised mode - show a quest version, or, if not uploaded, an avatar you selected from a list/world
and third mode being hide entirely
Sounds like a good compromise for me
give us an option to assign an optimised avatar from the list or anything we find in worlds to the "show optimised" mode
Yeah while I don't have much interest in making extremely optimized content. I do think that creators that do make that stuff should be enticed to continue
Featured lists can be expanded.
post this on canny
I'm not a name, so I feel like it'd never be seen or heard from again. ;P
But I know some names.
damn boi
its a neat feature, but i cant see it added any time soon seeing how something as simple as 16 favourite slots caused so much trouble.
its definetly gonna float about in the canny for a while
Most stuff floats around in the canny for god knows how long. But its better to float there than lost in #vrchat-general-2
ill make a post myself sometime, if you wont convince your mob boss, saigo
just let me know how it goes
Lmao
I can at least drop it in #feature-requests real quick.
I'll bug people later.
gay
People want to be my friend despite me not having a mic or a headset
people are nice in this game
Seem accurate in #feature-requests, @inner cape ? Or did I miss something?
People can be nice.
My best friend was a mute desktop user for over a year.
Speaking and VR aren't necessary.
Can always get TTS and pick a fun voice for times when you really want to say something but don't want to speak.
I just realized.... vr chat is just a excuse to eat anime ass...
Hey everyone
hey there phantom
How are you
pretty good atm you?
Ehh I'm alright
I got deranked from known to new user, am I still able to rank back up to known?
I've seen that happen to a few people Xanny. Those people were able to rank back up to Trusted.
Do you need o connect the quest to a PC to use it in vrchat
no but you'll probably have a bad time until you do
and if you're able to connect it to a PC right away odds are you didnt need a quest to begin with
Anyone wanna play blood gulch
Anyone wanna just hop on vrc? No one talks to me or tries to understand me cuz I use hand motions
Hmm
Reason I use hand motions is because I cannot physically talk a lot
A few words at most
Wanna do a sniper game?
Yeah Vrchat
Ok itโs called with the emojis
Yes
I was just thinkin that
My name is the same
Oki
I got you
Can't, don't have my laptop
That sucks
And I don't have vr anyways
@vocal shard join
Hi
Could you move to the left a little
ILA Iโm murder stay away
ILA are you
Is will be good
Start the game
ILA where are you
Uhhhh
maybe DM them personally?
you just plan on spamming this channel 
its annoying
dm him personally
Her
her whatever
......
Quit spamming, read the #rules or we'll have to call some folks over with a giant hammer.
Sound good?
Sounds good.
hi a desktop user, im n8
Hi n8, I'm a big birb.
Hi big birb, I'm Jam

Jimmy Jam
I see ruuubick goes to slep before I tell him off, he's actually getting rest now when it's time.

Is there a way to lie down in VR without body tracking? I already tried using the keyboard but it doesn't work.
Hi all!
just joined vrchat yesterday
didnt know that vrchat can be played without vr headset...for almost n number of years >_>
@fading dragon if you get very low to the ground you will lay on your stomach
Yeah none one seems to understand that a vr headset is not needed, then I tell my friends they donโt need a headset for vrchat and they are still like โoh, I might get it if it goes on saleโ 
lol 4heds
I have given up converting people. my friends just donโt wanna lol.
I was laying down in my bed yesterday but my avatar wouldn't. I will try it some more today, maybe i need to play around with some settings such as height and crouch / standing to get it to work.
depends on how low to the ground your HMD is. youre just gonna flop down on your stomach anyway
not exactly laying down
I just wish that they would implement keyboard for VR users so they have keybinds to do that and sit on the ground as well.
Ah lol...
You can use keyboard with vr
there's standing, crouch, and prone. avatars have these 3 types of animations for stuff like that
You're just doing it wrong
Only works on desktop mode
im literally in VR right now
๐ค
the keybinds dont do anything
V works, maybe a few others, but not the crouch/prone
because they don't need to work. your headset position is what controls that
um.. this probably isn't the right place but, what's the best place I can find someone to commission for a model?
the #community-servers-old look for VRC Traders
Headset just controls your head swaying or going up and down while your body does some strange stuff to follow it but if you want to properly lay down or sit like desktop users it seems you need body tracking which is a shame but i guess that's just how it's gonna be.
you can use playspace mover and just move your view
or better yet get the newest version of open vr advanced settings and you can move your playspace by double tapping the menu button on the vive
prone animations just play when your view is close to the ground
and crouch animations don't work at the moment
Interesting, thanks. I will look in to play space. (Rift S user) so i cant try the other option.
You can use that for any headset i'm pretty sure, just the keybinds will be different
I googled a lot for something like this but could not find it for the life of me.
Playspace mover is pretty old tho and requires a separate app to run
Okay, great! Thanks
๐
I'd say most people use this in vrchat
Because it allows you to move without having to move irl
My favourite avatar moves on one knee if I kneel so it works well
Nyah~!
Kneeyah
Punchyah
Kickyah
~ah
If I had 2 oranges and I ate one and then ate the second one, I would have none
What
Yes
Yes
Honestly vrchat fix your shitty fucking unoptimized platform already
Shit your shit
Shit your shit lmao
lol just stop playing if its so bad
Fuckkkk *fix
thats what i do wheni think a game is bad
Only thing annoying me in vrchat is those avatars that change what you see and make you nauseous and stuff
Hard to find who it is
Its not the devs fault people upload unoptimized eboys constantly
just turn off animations for non-friends and you wont normally have that issue
do it like me and optimize your wolfboys/eboys
True but sometimes I like to see meme shit
The game has a performance limiter for reasons
understandable
Gotta live on the edge
Seriously what is with this shitty game and it's memory leaks
bruh restart the game it takes 2 seconds lol

Thats unitys fault mostly
Like for real ... NO other game does this
According to tupper unity has problems unloading avatars
No other game is a VR game solely made of user-created content made by a bunch of people who have never, before a year or two ago, touched any 3D modeling or game development software
Also how can I restart my game if my computer is literally frozen in place
So switching instance fixes stuff
Just hang out in private forehead
same, fps drop sure but nothing a restart doesnt fix
sounds like you might have some other hardware issues the game is exacerbating
Usually switching instances alone fixes most lag
Why don't they use the 10 million dollars they got from valve and hire some decent development teams lol
I mean, memory leaks suck and all but you don't have much of a choice than just dealing with it and restarting the game once in a while.
What are you gonna do, play second life?
very few issues in the game are really worth getting this upset ove rlol
but this is the worst place to start your armchair gamedev shtick lol
I can't restart my game if it's literally buttfucked my PC to where it can't open anything
Like I said, sounds like an issue on your end
that only happens to me when I got kinectfbt stuff, playspacemover and obs running in the background. If I just play vrchat with nothing else open it never freezes my pc
Grrrrrr on second thought, it MAY be my PC... It is a bit old
The lag is a unity problem
Best of luck ๐
Well it not clearing up

Either way, how is a game this huge so poorly developed???
Yet again, not devs fault
Your biggest issue is lag, it really isn't that bad lol
And a lot of content is user made.
It's huge because there aren't many like it
Jesus... 3 years and it's not released???
Like the biggest issues not caused by other players that this game has is lag and....yeah, lag.
Some games are in ea for a decade
Not because it's objectively a good game
I mean it's been longer than that. 2014, so closer to 6
Even if it's 10 years and not released yet. Doesn't matter.
But again, you're pulling the armchair dev thing again, it won't work here
It's a GREAT game.... One of the better ones I've played but god damn the unity platform is so corrupt
Also star citizen says hello
Yeah I really like vrchat I think it's great game with interesting characters and storyline is my favourite out of every game
I'm not armchairing dude I'm just hella pissed cause everytime I play... I rarely get to exit the game properly
Cause vrchat takes up 13gb or 14gb of my ram
and like I said it kinda sounds like an issue on your end
otherwise why wouldn't it happen to me or everyone else here
It's not just me
I sometimes cant close the game for some reason but closing and opening steam fixes it
It's like the main technical support issue on their website
So defo not just on my end
vid players breaking is another example of a widespread issue being on the players end though. either way, support tickets your best bet
players, but often enogh youtube dl's end because of youtube changes
i deal with a lot of "tried everything" in the movie discord, that's never fixed the issue, same with my own when i had it

@vocal shard the game Rust was in early access for 7 years total
started as a browse game in the beginning and ended up where it is today
Wtb working social list kthx
that'll be 20 habbo coins and a habbo club sofa
Deal
I can only see a single friend online for like half an hour now ๐
Also why do video player world's crash people so much. Is this a bug or an exploit
for me i usually see the same 4 people on but i cant see the offline list at all
Fortnite early access
fortnite burger

Updating youtube dl for non youtube vids ๐ช
why are there non-games in the games tab...
Like?
wedding worlds and normal avatar worlds and hangouts
I did that once by accident because I used games in the keywords because I had avatars from games. I removed it when I noticed it was a "special" keyword. Some of the avatar ones may be the same mistake.
Maybe if a world has one beer pong it counts as a game world ๐คทโโ๏ธ
this inkopolis one is understandable
Im stuck on reading the warning information on my occulus rift s? how do i skip this?
Can anyone recommend fairly cheap vr headsets that works on vrchat and is it worth it?
is it good
has the full VR support (hand controlls)
i used it before , it's good enough, u get what u pay for ofc, but it works good enough
hm
If u never used VR before , you will be pretty much blown away , on how good it is, ,
if u always used an index , then yes, its not as good :p
it works on vrchat right
yeah, any VR game title works on it
also Half life Alyx and Boneworks really big VR titles)
Ok nice, would you say vrchat is fun?
i bought the lenovo explorer for vr fun , but i got really addicted to it
i played like 10 + hours daily ๐
Hi
Hi
some people says it windows mixed headsets doesn't work on vrchat
It does , ๐ , i played on it a few day's ago
i own the oculus rift , oculus rift S , and Mixed reality one
i kinda want the rift xd
original rift?
ah yeah , Rift S is really good
much better then Og rift
never go buy that one if u wear glasses
i wear glasses...
Hows every one doing
how do i expand social friends search results
it only shows like 9 results or something and i can't find the person i'm looking for there
they try to fix
woopy discord back again
๐ โ๏ธ ๐

@mighty root Wats wrong with being gay
anyone else having issues with models not loading
yup
Yep
server issues, give it some time
cough https://i.imgur.com/i7hM78O.png
rip, servers.
s
what?
wait what is going on with discord again
can someone read me
why my server and dm are all empty
it's time.
what?
!online
There are 10435 users in VRChat currently
why does my friend have an avatar and if he does a emote with it my game crashes
usual weekend peak
particles maybe
6 of my friends crash at kareeda world
๐
As long as they don't want anything too personal with me
@worthy hull Reconsider whether they're your friends
@worthy hull crasher avatar maybe? if you can tell me the username of them, i can try to investigate
lol
its irl friend he jjust did it as joke lol no worries
Oh
Because if someone would do that to me they'd be insta hidden, muted, blocked and reported
Unfriended possibly if they were my friend to begin with 
anyone else having problems with avatars loading?
@worthy hull i wouldnt take any moderation action against them but i would look through the avatars of the avatar author that friend was using at that time and see if there are crashers in there because those are cancer in vrchat and are against the terms of service
but i understand if you do not want to share this information
it isnt just you josh. i load my last used one perfectly. others will not load at all
ok
as said above, server issues, team is probably aware of it already
VRchat should have something like "Anti-Cheat" for crashings, etc that kicks your or something if you use this
(assuming they have server monitoring)
@vocal shard thats easiy said. But having a watch dog routine that is reliable and offsite is not easy.
Just use safety settings
well i just want to get my friend back xd
There is no way to tell the difference between a several minute long animation avatar and a crasher
@ruby needle You can always code some automatized paramets for detections
If VRchat wasnt build in unity- Even then a watchdog system can be avoided... Look at other well known games and there cheating problems
You make that sound very easy to do
And you can always trick those parameters the second they get found...
Safety settings
As gets done right now
Actually vrchat doesnt have anticheat, whats better? 
VRChat has some automatic measurements for things they can be sure of to work
It does have any ' hacks'
Unless you want to check ever avatar at runtime constantly you cant be sure what its doing
A program that scans the client and compares it 1:1 to a vanilla client isn't so hard to do. At least then it'd take an outside app to use client mods.
Particles? Well unless i room nuke (including myself) you can already prevent it with the particle limiter (not safety system, its a different thing).
If i want to crash with materials. Only way to check those is on runtime ๐
But VRC devs use variations on the vanilla client themselves anyway, I understand.
Yeah, if you don't allow dll injections, something like dll injection detected = Crash should do the trick
What is insanely harsh on performance to check
Again you make that sound like something super simple and easy to do
The reality of things is that even AAA developers with an insane budget struggle dealing with that problem, and VRChat isn't anywhere near being that
If client modders already have things like that, what is VRC struggling to do?
Laughs in unity
I don't get that argument.
What do client modders have?
^
Things vrchat itself also has :thonk:
Look Secondlife (?) working from 2000's
"You make it sound like it's something easy to do" lol Client modders have a lot of things people say that to.
Like?
Like checks and limiters. Better safeties.
Anyone having issues with changing avatars atm? You stay a blue men forever right now.
!online
It's not difficult if it's already done
There are 10304 users in VRChat currently
Again- Say exact systems and i can list you why VRchat itself cant have them c:
Anti crash. Instant ez clap.
What way of crashing do client users prevent that Vrchat itself doesnt?
hi guys
So it prevents my polygon clappers
My particle, shader and all others? Cool as it doesnt.

Not when you're prone to circular arguments and I have work. lol
thats my favorite response to "tell me why im wrong"
i had that copied and ready to go 
You're right cause you're right. I get it.
Well mic- Do you know then why anti crashers are useless right now.
VRC is dying
Yeah server issues have been around a few days now
What systems does an anti crashers currently have that would be solved if implemented large scale and isnt yet an option ingame.
Always at the same time too.
Saigo he's been asking that question a few times now. If anyone, you're the one with circular arguments because you dodge his question 
But let's call him out for being misinformed
I dunno about same time, it was acting like this at all hours of the night last night/early morning too
its just been spotty in general
n
Like i can for sure be misinformed. Wont deny that at all-
I dont keep myself 24/7 up to date so things might have changed. But @ all what sasha just said.
You're not good at reading comp. I have work and I only have 2 thumbs to type up an essay. Enjoy what you consider a victory. It's not, but enjoy it.
too much anime
๐
Just let it happen, it always does
That wasn't really the point at all but whatever
The inevitable "you're wrong but i won't tell you why you're wrong". It always seems to creep up eventually
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
at least they have a good reason lol
anybody else having trouble loading avatars ingame?
yup
alot of people seem to have this issue rn
Ye.
People are having problems yes- The devs should know by now (or not but they will soon enough then).
havent played vrc much lately so cant confirm
servers probably being ddosed idk
Ofc
There are 10K users online. Not odd its struggling
It's always ddos amirite?
ya
10k is pretty normal tho for a weekend
maybe not this early, not that im ever up tihs early anyway and by early I mean 4PM
when you cant use external emotes

10K users online. Not odd its struggling
you're aware there were times with 20k CCU online?
I know-
I do also know the servers struggled hard the first 2 weeks we got those numbers
you can actually see all relevant numbers on https://dash.silent-ghost.eu/ including current server status
yeah not really the best comparison, especially how they talked about how much they were freaking out trying to keep up when it happened
fix it D:
actually im not online right now, leave it broken, just have it fixed by the time im up from my nap
I think it's fixed right now

Wat up gamerz?
guys help where i can get a friday the 13th skin in a avatar world
If I get kicked by someone in a private world while doing nothing bad and just being kicked for no real reason will it affect your rank?
It would have to happen a ton for it to really change something
And I really mean, a TON
Ah ok, itโs only happened once so I guess Iโm fine
Boltz what did you do lmao
Yup
I joined a world then got kicked for no reason
Ikr
But some people are just too stupid to use an instance type that doesnt allow randoms
Switching to invite+ is hard
Cant wait for my avatar
Idk if they started yet
Ah
But all the filles and sketch are sent
Btw I removed the meme and name from my avatar
Lmao
why i was ignored ;-;
Probs because no one knows the answer
is there a way to show more than 10 results when looking for a user
is there some sort of dance competition happening in VRChat today? thought i heard someone mention this in a stream
There's dance events tonight in some groups, but I haven't heard about a competition.
It's possible, but I wouldn't know about it.
Is anyone else running into a problem where if they become a massive avatar in vr they can no longer click on most things like other avatars or worlds in their menus? I only managed to fix it by manually switching the avatar through desktop version.
yea thats been a problem, same with being too small, it messes with the menus
pretty much the only thing to do is shift + \ to switch to that robot so you can properly change
I was grumpy before. I lack sleep and hate work lately. Not so much an excuse as a reason. I feel like I was a poo head..
It was my bad. I could've worded things better. I'm sorry chat.
@covert blade @umbral reef
~n~
Hello I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing long loading times?
Fortunately, I've never used anything other than vanilla. But going by what I see and hear from people that make (not just use) their own client mods, there are things that will not only blind a user that tries to steal an avatar, but also prevent it. There are things that will cut off ram usage to prevent crashes from memory leaks. Things that will instantly stifle excessive amounts of particles without having to just limit the max particle counts. I think it's also pretty rare to get shader crashed. I don't make or use any of these, but these are examples of things I know of. @umbral reef
The majority of the things I'm aware of are mainly quality of life and preventative.
There's more of that that I hear of than there are malicious things.
But still, the stigma and possibility of abuse through client mods exists so it's all on the back burner.
Ahhh that
And yeah, a ton of people use clients for useful features, not to bother other players but ya know how it be, it's against the ToS so people will hate you regardless if you do use anything and tell them
Also the situation of people using clients to bad stuff and then others having modded clients to negate negative effects of other modded clients
Exactly. But my point was that people who are largely unpaid are making improvements which VRC ought to just have officially implemented by now.
Portal to friend instance, avatar author without a second player ect for example
A few things I'm aware of at least
But it feels like that in so many games that modders get essential features into the game
touch clients gachiBASS
At least I'm glad that most people in VRChat seem to be considerate of others. Or at least it seemed like that in my experience
...
I just didn't have time to type all of that out before and felt at loss because somebody was saying that I didn't have an intention toooo. ๐ท
Oof
you good, b?
No
lol
Lol

Plenty of people here

so nobody here...
Death
Clearly
I don't get it. xD
me neither
pfft
so, saigo, pulled any of your gansta strings yet?
So how tf am I getting like 40 fps average? I have a 2080Ti
vrc is more cpu intense than gpu and user made content is bound to be unoptimized in some way and in large quantities will result in lag no matter the system
Oh, no. I haven't. But I kinda figured it was definitely a feature that'd be on hold until certain other things were out of the way first anyway.
hello everyone
People in the position that I had mentioned have probably seen that channel post though. I know if they disagreed, they'd have vocalized it already.
its definetly a futuristic request, but we might forget if we dont post it now
I'll just post the thing posted in the channel.
nobody ever answers me ;(
@lusty raptor is it the same way in vrchat? ๐ฆ
@deft pelican yes it really is
@deft pelican exceot this one time.. this person actually interacted with me lmao
just change your username ingame to noticeme:( and it'll be cute
cute is everything in vrchat
is anyone else not able to load in game ?
That's because you need a cute name
UH?
Read the chat above
H3VR
Beat Saber
Pavlov
moss
Moss seems cute.
ye
I like the fnaf game
lol Rip the medieval Rust though.
Duck season
yea i had duck season or blade and sorcery in mind
@wise trench yes me too. vrc servers are iffy atm
and all the days that im off from work
hi guys vrchat is fun
@dusk lantern Been to your world, it is pretty neat
Showed up in the "front page" of Labs worlds
i got a 144hz monitor. how do I run VRChat at 144fps rather than 90fps
Can't change the frame rate limit
I wouldn't be surprised if elon looked at the cyberpunk sports car in the trailer and said ok that looks epic
why can't you change it
reee I can't even load in
That actually pretty cute

Oh yea Iโve heard about that
people who play using headsets, how do you walk with your arms moving naturally as opposed to just your arms at your sides like napoleon dynamite or something
I meeean.
You can have them kind of relaxed up in front of you.
Or just kind of be doing something while you move.
It's never really been something I notice too much though.
If you want, it's fun to embody certain personas in certain avatars.
It's fun for me.
I do it without knowing usually.
gotcha
also maybe a weird question but how do i like engage with people in vrchat? irl it's just like easy to talk to people whereas in vrchat everything just feels a lot more focused for whatever reason
Interesting*
You know, tbh I can see that.
I can be random and natural because a situation in real life is natural.
I guess it takes the right situation.
Or conversation.
yeah
One that you have input.
for future reference you can edit messages fast by pressing up arrow on ur keyboard, not sure if you knew that or not
thank you for the advice
Yeah, lol But I wanted to start over.
ah ok
Easier on mobile that way sometimes.
yeah
The up arrow thing I actually didn't know. Will be handy when I get back on PC.
What brands of vrheadsets work with vrchat
Like, cheapest I can get even if I get it second hand as an old model
Someone is gonna suggest the quest. Ignore those suggestions.
Well, quest is good for me cuz I don't always have a pc
Ad it's relatively cheap too
i use the rift cv1 and it's nice enough but i'm not sure how it stacks up to current gen offerings
when i was doing reading on headsets some people recommended the windows mixed reality HMDs
@rigid crescent may i ask what's wrong with the quest? i'm not really in the know
You're getting an experience arguably worse than desktop
Desktop you can still see all custom content
Because it depends so heavily on PC users and creators creating Quest avatars (which I'd never personally waste my time doing) you're at the mercy of an audience that doesn't care about your platform. While in cross play worlds, the chance of seeing someone with a Quest compatible model is probably lower than seeing another Quest user.
ah gotcha, makes sense
You just see floating grey robots. Can't really vouch for how populated Quest only worlds are. The Quest experience altogether just seems like a waste of money.
yeah
not to mention ive noticed all quest compatible models arent optimised for quest anyway
It seems so weird they'd release a platform that requires PC users who hate it to create content for it lol
Well I'm assuming they got paid, still though feels like it sucks for the consumer
can i ask you guys a question
