Any way to track when the availability to upload to Community Labs is? I forgot the date I first published a world and the message telling me I can only upload once a week doesn't even tell me how long to wait. 🤔

#

@broken plover the idea of “being original” is kinda a dumb thought process considering most models aren’t original in any sense. So even if u upload a model it can still be considered not original

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 1:00 PM

#

Original in the sense of "not using the exact same avatar that everyone else wants to use right now"

meager solstice Dec 9, 2019, 1:01 PM

I mean in terms of that I think baby yoda would be the least of the worries

I think that's the plight of meme avatars. Everyone wants to be in the in-crowd for that moment that's interested in it.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 1:33 PM

#

Oh god, upgrading to 2018 and it's recrunching EVERY texture in the entire project. There's like 700,000 files in the project, many are textures. This may take a while.

Thankfully my first world was small, so there's not much to upgrade.

pseudo basalt Dec 9, 2019, 1:35 PM

I know some people say they have one avatar per project and that seems pretty dumb, but a project THAT big is also not a good idea

#

Avatars on the other hand...

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 1:38 PM

#

@pseudo basalt It's a world rather than avatars. I can't imagine how an avatar project would end up that large, lol.

#

And yeah, it's around 20GB in size.

pseudo basalt Dec 9, 2019, 1:38 PM

#

Makes sense

#

On the other hand it recrunches them all in one go

#

So you can leave it alone while it does it's thing, unlike uploading avatars

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 1:39 PM

#

Yeah. Shame you can't batch that. Maybe you can macro it? lol

broken plover Dec 9, 2019, 1:39 PM

A sense of scale may help. Each of the three bottom bits are 0.5km2 so it's quite large - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/628102741037809666/652974763991498752/unknown.png

Only if you constantly offer them popcorn.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:18 PM

#

Anyone have an idea of why switching ingame to the steam overlay, and going back into the game, causes the game to lag or perform worse in vr mode? vrcThinking

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

Bring it up and close it again.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

That dsnt fix it for me :/

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

If that's the case then try restarting VRC.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

It's a bug in SteamVR

#

Restarting VRC won't fix it

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

Yeah.. Restarting VRC fixes it, but its annoying lol thats why i ask

#

if i want to look at discord or something inside vr, everytime i want to check something this bug will show up again

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

Hmm, normally it doesn't fix it. You're lucky then, but the other thing you can try is changing the supersampling amount in Advanced OpenVR Settings.

#

If you drop it below 100 then back up, that sometimes fixes it.

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:22 PM

#

It's a case to case basis, but also a known issue.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:22 PM

#

But yeah I get it a lot and it's quite annoying.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:22 PM

#

Hmm so its not a random issue i got then, pretty much everyone have the same issue? lol

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:22 PM

#

Using OVRToolkit instead can help avoid the issue.

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:23 PM

#

For me I bring up the Oculus menu once and it's sorted.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:24 PM

#

Why would you be using SteamVR on Oculus anyway?

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:24 PM

#

is it known what causes it tho? I ddnt have this issue some time agoo

#

i think it start with recent steamvr updates

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:25 PM

#

Oof you wanna know why?

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:25 PM

#

@chrome badger Not sure. I do a lot of work in Unity while still in VR so I tend to trigger it then.

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:25 PM

#

Oculus VRChat has an audio / visual desync.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:26 PM

#

I dont have oculus tho 🤔

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:26 PM

#

When I talk it takes a second for it to show visually, this doesn't happen when using Steam VRChat.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:26 PM

#

Weird

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 5:27 PM

#

@modern sand BBkiss

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:27 PM

#

@chrome badger But yeah, I either avoid doing to desktop view, or use OVRT to do it.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:27 PM

#

Hmm.. So pretty much, tl;dr, almost everyone have the issue. Only "fixes" is changing some options like the scaling or messing arround "hoping" that it goes away, or not using the overlay at all xD

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 5:30 PM

#

Yeah. Dropping scaling down fixes it, but you still get stuck at a lower rate. It's almost like it's rendering two copies or something and now it's struggling.

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:31 PM

#

Do you know by chance if maybe using this vr overlays things most streamers use, allow you to see stuff without having this bug? Like maybe bringing discord on your hand

#

since ur not bringing the steam overlay

#

🤔

fringe sparrow Dec 9, 2019, 5:34 PM

#

Hello

broken plover Dec 9, 2019, 5:35 PM

#

thats ovrtoolkit

chrome badger Dec 9, 2019, 5:36 PM

#

Does that allow u to see the screens and interact with them, without having to open the steamvr overlay, and hopefully not bringing this bug? 🤔

broken plover Dec 9, 2019, 5:37 PM

#

Yes it brings up a window that you can put on your hand and you can use your other controller to click stuff on it. You can also bring up a keyboard to type stuff

Oculus client had a lot of issues that the SteamVR client didn't, last I remember. The convenience wasn't worth the inconvenience.

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 6:59 PM

#

I think I couldn't have put it better myself.

#

The only plus I get out of the oculus app is the ability to pin my apps as an overlay and placing and resizing however I wish.

#

Oh and the oculus wrist watch, that's pretty sick.

faint skiff Dec 9, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

Hmm, people told me they got much worse FPS using Oculus and Steam stacked. Maybe they were changing the SS from 100.

ruby needle Dec 9, 2019, 7:34 PM

#

Im using oculus client since day one

#

And "a lot of issues" would be new to me.

#

It had a little bit of high calibration issues at the start, where you would need to make sure to be in the right position during startup as it'll keep that (which is solved)

#

Else works perfectly.

crystal fossil Dec 9, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

The client had delayed updates for a bit in the beginning and the IK was literally different in Oculus than Steam for one very important thing. Certain things that were patched months prior were in the Oculus client when I used it too. So I didn't use Oculus for very long at all. Maybe it's all sorted now, but there were some very different things going on in Oculus for whatever reason and I would've rather just kept using SteamVR.

ruby needle Dec 9, 2019, 7:42 PM

I always got my updates quickly.

No, I mean VRC updated it behind SteamVR by quiet a bit.

snow wadi Dec 9, 2019, 7:42 PM

The issue it STILL has is the delay between audio and visemes.

does anyone know how to convert an vmd file into mmd

#

l realy need help :c

inner cape Dec 10, 2019, 12:57 AM

#

isnt that a motion file

#

an mmd animation basically

#

cats plugin installs mmd tools for blender, only 2.79 version tho, i think
if you import an mmd model through mmd tools and not through cats, youd be able to import an vmd onto it

@rigid crescent Working on adding passive immersion at the moment though, for example properly attenuating and altering the music coming from inside when you're outside, so it sounds like it's actually coming from inside, etc (bonus look at the outside) - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/628102741037809666/652978033065721858/2019-12-07_19-20-18.mp4

#

(has too much of a weird "in your own head" sound at the moment though)

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

Definitely a prime target for RP, I showed some friends who do that and they thought it looked cool

faint skiff Dec 10, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

I have around 200 audio sources in the world now and I'm still adding more (everything is area triggered so there's no issues with hitting the Unity audio concurrency limits). I find environmental sound design is something many people skip over but it's really important to actually being immersed.

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

Yeah there's a Japanese event map I went to that plays nice nature sounds outside then when you go inside it's some traditional sounding music

faint skiff Dec 10, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

Unity is lacking a lot of things you'd take for granted though, sound always has to come from a point, it can't come from an area, so you end up having to use dozens of sounds spread out over an area to simulate it instead (e.g. the waves on the beach here), there's wave/background water ambience generators all around the coast, like 25 or so so that you actually hear the waves from everywhere you'd expect.

#

One thing I can't get working though is global modified reverb that affects everyone, including players voices. I can get a single dummy instance running, but not get it working in such a way that it can be changed on the fly (e.g. slightly echo'y for the cave, distance reverb for the coastal mountains, etc). Hopefully I'll solve the enigma one day.

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 6:53 PM

#

Murder 3 has certain parts of the map with echo while it's normal everywhere else

#

Dunno if that's the same thing that you want but if so, Jar definitely knows how to do that

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 7:00 PM

#

@faint skiff Hmm so wait, making a "Sound area" would then require you to make a sound source that can reach very far and have triggers to turn it on / off?

#

Instead of having a simple box that you draw that plays audio.ogg when you're in it and doesn't when you're not?

faint skiff Dec 10, 2019, 7:01 PM

#

Correct

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 7:01 PM

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 7:02 PM

That and in vrc we can't do any scripting so we have to work with the most default of the default components

faint skiff Dec 10, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

Unfortunately it's obvious when it's 2d as it doesn't rotate with your head.

#

Or rather it does

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

If anything, IRL all sounds come from a point you just can't have an audio source for each cricket in the woods

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

Works for general ambience but in your case that clutter of 3D sound makes it more believable as you would expect the sounds of the ocean to come from the direction of the ocean

#

Arma 3 does that

#

A lot of the ambience noise is actually 3D and comes from a certain random direction

#

But yeah @faint skiff really looking forward to that stuff. An actual soundscape of a lot of 3D sounds playing to create the ambience is a lot nicer than just ambience.ogg playing in a loop

its unberable onlu whrn i wake up, and only if i sleep with my glasses off

#

the big comfort killer is headphones. Sleep on a travel pillow or wedged between two pillows so you dont compress your ear. dont sleep on your elbow as a replacement.

#

also dont sleep in fromt of anything bright for your screen, and be prepared for that sweet, sweet electric bill

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 7:41 PM

Yeah the headphones are what keep me from passing out probably. can't really get comfortable without being on my side

Again I still think it's best to just turn the stuff off since it's a massive waste. Or maybe have a program that shuts your computer off automatically at some point if you know you'll fall asleep

then you would just be rly tired and go back to sleep probs

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

i think a fun compromise for the people who like to sleep and wake up in vr is to just make the screen stop rendering stuff for a while. just change it to a relaxing blue or orange gradient so your power doesnt shit itself

If it's a solid color like that can't that burn onto the screen?

I don't have rift s but isn't that the new one? I've heard the normal rift was better

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

i liked what that one magic game did, where 4 colored and stylized quadrantts represented different spells

#

"better" is debatable. so far ive heard really good things about the rift s tracking and none of the usb bandwidth bullshit with the old sensors, so i guess the only other downside would be the relatively small blindspot. the real rift S killer is going to be IPD if you're sensitive to IPD

IPD?

everything else is compromise imo. but for me personally id gladly trade in for a rift s if i wasnt already considering index

some people say it doesnt matter, others feel like shit after 2 hours with an IPD thats like a mm off the mark

@torn vine how much money are you willing to spend on VR

or rather, how much can you spend

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 7:53 PM

I need to get a ruler or some shit i have no idea what my IPD is

(if you have an i5-6400 and a gtx 1060 6gb at the least then youll be okay)

#

hmm. id say get index since index is exactly 1,000usd but if your specs are bit more minimum then a rift S would be the safer bet at 400usd

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 7:56 PM

If you wear glasses irl it's probably on your prescription, places like Walmart will check the ipd for free too

so why is the index at 1k

or is the rift s really bad

~~money money money~~ best offering so far

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 7:57 PM

The rift S is good
The index is stupidly good and high end

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

rift S is not bad at all, 300-400usd is actually like the normal price for most VR headsets (fits rift s, og rift+=vive, all wmr headsets)

#

but yeah, index costs that much because every bit of it is really high end. well, except for the controllers lmao

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 7:58 PM

Well they're high end tech. Just not quality lol

torn vine Dec 10, 2019, 7:58 PM

PC specs, yes.

#

You definitely wanna make sure you can run it

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 8:01 PM

#

ehh, i think the rift S is still pretty step up over most other headsets except for i guess the samsung oddyssey. its more like the difference between the nicest car at your local dealer and a fucking M8 or some shit

#

and like i said, someone are doing better than me on a fucking FX, you can push VR surprisingly low

torn vine Dec 10, 2019, 8:01 PM

my pc is a lenovo y700 it runs pretty much everything i play so i think ill be good but ill compare specs

You won't have a bad time with the Rift S if that's what you're worried about

#

Unless your spec are too low.

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

quite the opposite. i just reccommend rift S immediately after index since its the next logical headset in my recommendation list. after all, there 100% isnt anything in between. yes. nothing at all.

@zinc scaffold if you want to take advantage of higher framerates, though, 2070 is the absolute minimum, but id honestly reccommend going all the way up to a 2080ti at that point

and not even the 2080ti can push all VR games at max settings at 144hz so >u>

ruby burrow Dec 10, 2019, 8:13 PM

@torn vine Based on my own experience, you should probably average around 45fps (in reprojection mode) on most games, with some settings turned down.

torn vine Dec 10, 2019, 8:13 PM

#

eugh i doubt i'm even gonna get any vr now

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 8:14 PM

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 8:14 PM

#

Why?

torn vine Dec 10, 2019, 8:14 PM

#

like 45 fps on the lowest settings for every game

ruby burrow Dec 10, 2019, 8:14 PM

#

Reprojection is when it drops the game down to 45 fps but then doubles it on the headsets end, so you still see 90.

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

What? Lol it's not 45 regardless of settings

torn vine Dec 10, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

i am so confused about everything

desert stratus Dec 10, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

well its not "exactly" 45 fps. like squishy said, the idea is that in VR you cant really afford to go lower than 90 frames since at that point the experience is gonna go to shit, so insttead your PC will try to fake half of those 90 frames in a way that im not going to explain

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

You're not comprehending what people are saying very well

ruby burrow Dec 10, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

In VRC you'll get lower than 45, but it's also not an action game so is more bearable. I was still able to enjoy VR-Chat for a year before upgrading my PC.

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 8:16 PM

@polar jasper Oddly enough alright, although a good 10 or so people were performance blocked.

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 8:29 PM

That's not that bad then. Only had dynamic bones and a few avatars hidden. But 80 people in a instance was pretty good

Yeah, I used to have that, it's crashed for whatever reason. It may eventually bounce you home.

@ruby needle He's not using the iGPU otherwise it would never have reached that high in the graph in the first place.

ruby needle Dec 10, 2019, 9:07 PM

it might be useable for some smaller things, but VRChat will crush it, the 2GB VRAM will be a huge issue.

Not to mention that you allready had throttling issues just from the steam VR test cirLaugh

faint skiff Dec 10, 2019, 9:07 PM

Job Sim and Pavlov MAYBE, but it will be rough.

@ruby needle That could have been it running out of VRAM.

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

man it tilts me our community calendar sucks compared to the JP calendar

#

https://sites.google.com/view/vrchat-event

#

Every single one of these are ACTIVE events that are held regularly, meanwhile the English one is like "Cancelled/Hiatus/Cancelled/Hiatus" because whoever runs it just lets people put events on it that they have no plans on actually being there to run

#

https://www.vrchat.com/events

#

and it's like the same 2 or 3 events for the ones that are active on it

inner cape Dec 10, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

run your own

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

It's not well maintained Mic

#

We have wanted to do our own, but we also want better event info in the app, so making it our self will not help in getting that D:

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

I've got something I'm working on now but it's more aimed at RP stuff

dont matter, just dew it

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

I mean I'm gonna do it lol just takes time to setup and write for

#

Got the idea from another JP event thing

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

I am working on a new layout for vrchatevents.com and we're looking at getting a better calendar system, but just ideas at the moment

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

Well the way these are handled, I think, is that the event runner actually has to get in contact with the calendar person and submit the event every time

#

instead of yknow....this https://puu.sh/EO30d/0d10d2cbbf.png

#

Events well into 2020 because they're on some automated schedule

#

If your event isnt active it does'nt belong on the calendar

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

Yup, that's why I am working on a new one. More open, allow single events, still approval process to make sure we got quality events and not just spam

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

and if you can't be assed to submit a weekly application, it doesn't belong on the calendar

#

Like people don't even get active on social media for their own events, meanwhile I'm seeing tons of shared posts with posters and whatnot for JP events all over the place

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

It's a bit different culture than the western side

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

Yeah culture definitely does play a part, but only so much

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

True

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

Like more "normal" JP users tend to play VRC than the...well, whatever we have, myself included, on the western front

#

Not that there's anything wrong with us as a whole or anything, a lot of it is definitely cultural differences

#

but even Fantasy Shukaijou has a rotating calendar in it

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

Well it's more that the western community isn't a community but more just loads of smaller communities without a connection

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

Oh true

#

I see a ton of the same faces at the JP events

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

It's the same for western events too

#

the Community Meetup has a lot of new people every week, but mostly the same ones

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

Yeah the few I've managed to catch have a lot of the same faces but sometimes its just the same few people over and over

#

besides that one, i havent been to that

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

And the fact that if you asked any user new or old if vrc had public events, what events and how to join them that almost no one at all could tell you that

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

But the tea-house event I went to had staff from a few of of the Host Club events I've been to as well as some other "personalities"

#

Part of the issue is that a lot of the more influential users in our communities are streamers which isnt an issue on its own, but many of them are in it for profit, attention, etc. There's no incentive to do things like this so they just have club maps for hanging out with their friends, which again is fine, but it doesn't help build community at all

#

I'm super envious of what I've seen the JP community build after going to a lot of events and seeing the cool stuff they do with zero incentive at all

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

The bigger western streamers don't really take part in public #events . I've seen a few join now, but they don't really stream then as they just want to enjoy the content.

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

But like for real
How would people even know how to join these events

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

Yeah I'm not blaming streamers as a whole, it's not like it's their duty to actually do this kind of thing, it's just that for a lot of people they're the more "influential" faces.

#

Yeah I can't get the posters off my feed for a minute as far as the JP Events go, meanwhile this is the ONLY place I hear about the community meetup lol

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:19 PM

#

@umbral reef In world advertising. But VRChat also lack anything event related really.

All these are posters from various worlds where events are held

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:22 PM

I remember when I was a kid you could pay to put up ads on the Roblox website for your world lol

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

But right now for western events we have:
#events - That explains jack shit on how to join unless you look at the pinned msgs and do even more extra steps.
The VRC events website thats just #events but on a website where there is literally no way at all to find out how to join the events.
Ingame what most people wont see or even realize.
Person to Person..

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

This is why I want to rework the vrchatevents website. Let you add a poster there, then provide a prefab for Unity to use in game

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:24 PM

I mean it doesn't really have to be a huge built-in thing, map owners shouldn't really have much issue adding a single poster to the world lol

Owlboy has like 10 at the door of the pug that no one looks at

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:25 PM

Also like it took me ages to learn those where just made up things

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:26 PM

#

made up things?

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:26 PM

#

Some have dedicated discords, twitters, hashtags, etc. Not expecting people to go that far obviously, but it definitely shows how far back we are in terms of an actual community

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:27 PM

#

There's a lot of lack of information on everything vrchat though. Best way to learn advanced avatar creation is to ask people in game imo since there's no documentation on a lot of stuff

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:27 PM

#

Communication has been my biggest complaint for ages

#

It took them so stupidly long to make a proper support page that was not wheeze worthy

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:27 PM

#

Things like themed meetups (cybernetic avatars, certain creator's avatars from booth, mosnter girls, etc) are definitely more of a cultural thing since they have a different view of models than most westerners do, but there's a lot of "Well why isn't this a thing..." events I've been to as well

#

oh and host clubs, that'd definitely never fly lol

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

So long that by the time they made there version i know people (aka me) who made there own versions before that

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

there's a decent amount of those, a new host club event is opening up pretty soon to i think. they're liek the JP equivalent of a Club Map lol

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

Communication from an avatar creation stand point will never happen imo as most of the advanced stuff is a workaround at some point

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

It's really the basics

#

Oh by the way, there's a Japanese tutorial world that teaches you how to play the game

#

Meanwhile ours is "durhhhh step on da blox XD"

inner cape Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

yoink, my idea now, thanks mic

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

it explains the camera, the safety system, everything

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

And for the complex things with avatars and worlds. Often the team has to learn those things themself when they want to. The basics tho- They legit halfass those as mic said

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

They sort of need it though, no JP translation in game to explain it

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

The original tutorial is just outdated now

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:29 PM

Particle limiter is off by default. Don't you have to edit the files for it?

#

They just trigger it but have no idea what it is

#

JUP scion

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:32 PM

The issue is that you honestly need a certain amount of "clout" to get anything actually done lol

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:32 PM

#

That and it also resets your custom set up

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 10:32 PM

you mean, i like your custom safety settings, mind if i just change em, mode

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:32 PM

#

Most new users complain about the dynamic bone limiter since it's on by default

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:33 PM

#

You know- bricks all realistic ways of crashing with particles and sadly some animations but never got properly added into the game

#

Because removing it is better then a tradeoff c:

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 10:33 PM

#

and we still need to edit a config file to tweak those settings

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:34 PM

#

Honestly I feel I should remove my particle limiter. I've got particles disabled for non friends anyways

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:35 PM

#

I use a config that has a limit, but it's so high that it won't disrupt any non malicious one. At least reduce it

umbral reef Dec 10, 2019, 10:35 PM

#

Particle limiter is leaps better the safety system version

#

All you need is to have it on phaxe...
It prevents some stuff i cba to explain what means that if they want to crash you- they have to crash everyone

#

including themself everyone

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:36 PM

#

Ah i guess enable particles for everyone but have the limiter to stop crashers makes sense

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 10:37 PM

#

the default for the particle limiter is pretty reasonable too, the dynabone one isnt, but 1/2 🤷‍♂️

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:37 PM

#

I just use the dynamic bone limiter as a "oh shit my frames" button

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 10:38 PM

#

its kinda like a mini panic mode for lag at defaults

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:38 PM

#

You can usually gauge the amount of dynamic bones by how many anime girls are on your screen

indigo fern Dec 10, 2019, 10:38 PM

#

the long haired ones, which is most of the usual suspects

merry minnow Dec 10, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

I keep mine at no dynamics on purpose.

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

i think ive got like...50

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

I have it at zero too but dont use it until my frames start dropping

#

Unfortunately there is no way for the game to dynamically enable settings as needed

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:40 PM

#

No Dynamics can make things look so bad so I give people the medium rating level of bones so people that know what their doing can still show em off

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:41 PM

#

I also do what probs no one else here does and have safety off a lot of the time

#

Hmm, that reminds me of something, @polar jasper ?

I frequent lobbies of 40+ fullbody users so i have a somewhat need for strict safety settings

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:42 PM

#

I mean, I can live with low frames, but if it is so low that I cant even click on people anymore than that's a bit bad

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:43 PM

#

Yeah I'm all for the community meetup but I'm pretty sure if I show up I'll just die

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:43 PM

#

Does that actually make a difference?

#

Isn't it all networked anyways?

frosty veldt Dec 10, 2019, 10:44 PM

#

Full body probably makes a difference albeit very small in relation to the requirements of the actual avatar. If anything I doubt it's more CPU, it's probably more network usage

merry minnow Dec 10, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

That and i also have wireless .

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:48 PM

We talked about it, but splitting it up isn't really ideal as you'd want to follow the person that made the world around to listen to what they have to say

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:48 PM

#

I use the same settings for all ranks because ranks are somewhat meaningless

#

But the community meetup has so many players that medium perf limiter and dbones off doesnt dig it

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:49 PM

#

hmm i feel like there's an easier way to do that

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:49 PM

#

Sooo uh, I dunno turning off all the avatars might help

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:49 PM

#

but they involve the creator having to explain the room multiple times

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:50 PM

#

We have people that stream it, but forcing people to go watch that because they can't be in the same world isn't really something we want to do.

#

Yeah, but with a time limit of 3 hours and it being filled up pretty much every time, it doesn't leave a lot of room for that

#

Restarting the game and making sure safety is maxed before you join on anyone for the meetup could be a good idea yeah Sasha

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

Custom - Voice only

#

Max safety is useless because it shows the avatar for trusted, which is like 99% of all players present

#

And then maaybe, I get 30 FPS

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 10:53 PM

#

for daily use I have everything on but animations for non-friends

#

i just wouldn't even bother going into massive lobbies like that

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:53 PM

#

What I mean with maxed, is disable everything (not voice) including friends

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:54 PM

#

Pretty much

#

But I doubt the lag is coming from the avatars but who knows, maybe it helps a lil

polar jasper Dec 10, 2019, 10:54 PM

#

Anything that helps ^_^

covert blade Dec 10, 2019, 10:54 PM

At least I hope it will

VRChat best experience: audio only. No visuals at all

nocturne jasper Dec 10, 2019, 11:11 PM

#

What type of setup would I need for that? 🤔

rigid crescent Dec 10, 2019, 11:12 PM

#

just close your eyes e z

Anyone know some good xenoblade worlds and or megaman worlds

twin fractal Dec 10, 2019, 11:15 PM

#

We just need worlds that auto spawn you in front of the mirror. You don't even need to move. Just need a headset with a mic and your 👌

nocturne jasper Dec 10, 2019, 11:19 PM

#

Closing your eyes is the best vr experience. You can imagine yourself as any avatar instantly

It's a wild west and I'm always ready to yee haw 🤠

It's all club maps and dead events that still stay on the schedule

rigid crescent Dec 11, 2019, 1:54 AM

Wish whoever was in charge would organize it better but I don't think the VRC event thing is actually run by them is it?

twin fractal Dec 11, 2019, 1:55 AM

#

It doesn't seem to be. And if it is they're really not doing much with it

rigid crescent Dec 11, 2019, 1:56 AM

#

Community run event upkeep when vrcAevSlap

twin fractal Dec 11, 2019, 1:56 AM

#

It still don't get how you even join these events. It's super confusing as a new user tbh

rigid crescent Dec 11, 2019, 1:57 AM

#

You don't join them you're merely allowed to know they exist

#

There's a separate discord that I'm gonna go ahead and assume is ass just like the calendar

vocal shard Dec 11, 2019, 1:57 AM

#

anyone here who has a 1070ti, what kind of FPS do you get on a mostly populated great pug?

#

i'm only getting 45fps, pretty sure i have a huge cpu bottleneck

twin fractal Dec 11, 2019, 1:59 AM

#

Great pug? I don't think 45 fps is even considered bad

#

I drop that low depending on settings/population

vocal shard Dec 11, 2019, 2:01 AM

#

huh

#

i forgot vrchat had performance issues

rigid crescent Dec 11, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

the pug definitely has issues lol

warped thorn Dec 11, 2019, 2:04 AM

#

No, that sounds normal for The Pug.

Am I crazy or does the new Rick and Morty remind anyone of VRChat?

If VRchat isn't the first thing you think of when you hear slut dragons then idk what

vocal shard Dec 11, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

I know what you meant... I don't know what worlds you visit because that's not my VRChat experience

crystal fossil Dec 11, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

A single mirror usually drops my frames to 45 even when alone. lul

#

I might just be the frame check bugging out, but it never fails.

#

90 down to 45.

#

Rarely, it only drops to 60.

#

That's a good mirror.
