Because you will realize that your drunk way slower then normal
a lot of people let that become the norm for them being able to talk to people on the game. they eventually aren't able to play how they want to without getting drunk, and then they go down this rabbit hole of having to drink when they play. seen a lot of people descend into alcoholism on the game in the past 2 yrs this way.
it's the same danger as irl, except if you black our or pass out, you are doing it in your home, not on some random street, club, party. it feels much safer for me to be drinking in vrc vs anywhere else

That's just alcohol in general m8
that's quite a slippery slope you made up there
thats normal way of alochol in ur system
pretty much yeah
idk, i feel like i see people rely on it way too hard to be able to socialise and it kinda just makes me sad
!online
There are 607 users in VRChat currently
that's no different from irl parties/socializing as well
it is more dangerous in the sense that perhaps you don't have anyone nearby if something bad was to happen, but that doesn't really make it more dangerous, just a little differently dangerous
are they up?
i mean my point of view i havent drank alochol for month and last time i drank on vr was two years ago
i never really saw the same kind of thing happening IRL. maybe something to do with where i live, but it isn't as rampant amongst those who drink alcohol as it is on here
I'd assume you have contact with a lot more people in vrchat so it seem like a bigger epidemic than it does irl
Well from personal experience i do realize how drunk i am way later in VR then normal
Like pretty much when i put the headset off i realize how far im actually gone and not while ingame
yeah that's true i guess @quaint token
Oclac drinking in vrc damn
reason why i know when im drunk is going for smoke then fresh air hits u
Haha
Progress update Please ! devs
Don't you get the feeling of 'how drunk' you are based on your perception? Since it's somewhat skewered while in vr, I'd assume it has some effect on how long it takes for you to notice
Well yea ^
!online
idk i know when im drunk in vr. doesnt matter if its irl or vr where im drinking lol
There are 594 users in VRChat currently
saturdays are for drinking tho
but you could get the same thing irl by just not standing up while drinking lol
pro tip dont do the shots just do normal sips from a mixed drink or something otherwise you are dead
im known for shots lol im like every 10 mins shot
12% alcohol 'shots'
Most important lesson is that shot is not like 70ml of pure vodka like I always used to drink but sip of something in vrc
always drinking rum or whiskey mixed so a shot means sip for me
New to vrchat, what can I expect?
Chaos
@vocal shard run
ya VRC shots != real shots or you are going to be absolutely smashed in a very short amount of time lol.
lot of drunk people :3
Yeah I think by now thats what most people do take a sip instead of taking a shot every 5 min
lol 'a bit'
Progress update when?
After like ... Uhm... 4 hours? It'd be nice to have a lil update as to how things are going... Maybe an estimated time things are fixed?

You can expect a lot of racism and homophobia ingame tbh, it's amazing how many times you can hear the n word in an hour in there
They've aknowledge the issue, and are doing investigations.
It's weekend too, so it's likely slowed down then if it would be during the week.
u are to young to know child u must watch yourself
Is there a way to report that sort of stuff? I am known as a major reporter in a server I play on.
anyone have the correct version of unity that i am supposed to use if so please dm me
Well that all sounds... just peachy. Thanks..? I think?
Feels bad when the only day you're off work you can't get on VRC. Damn. Gonna play smth else then - have fun lads!
You will meet many toxic people but if you’re lucky you will discover some true gems among people
(and a lot of transphobia as well)
you can report people, but you can't specify what you're reporting them for so who knows what it does.
you can meet some lovely people @vocal shard , just don't expect the most polite crowd. Quite a few toxic people in there before you meet someone nice...
Is VRC back up yet? 🙁
you can report users in-game but i have no idea how effective that is. past that you can get in touch with the moderation team or something @real terrace

most of the time is best to keep to urself untill you get used to people
Vr chat is just people cursing when you join a world :c
I've had about 3/4 good experiences 1/4 bad. Lotta creepy weirdos
that's honestly probably my biggest question to the devs/moderation team of vrchat to be honest, is if the in-game reporting feature actually does anything.
The average vrchat player.... do they have a stable social life irl? Or is this a crap shoot
Big brain time seems like the 2017 servers are down maybe they are switching to 2018 Finally
If I had a nickel for every time I had bad experiences relating to how a disappointing amount of people treated trans individuals in this game, I'd be pretty deep in coins =.=
still down huh?

@vocal shard you will find all sorts of people on here, from all walks of life. imagine if the internet itself was made into a 3D space. that is VRChat. you will find every person you can imagine if you look hard enough.
@cinder totem do you stream or am I mistaking you for someone else?
@vocal shard well you have to get them into diffrent groups.
I wanna make an LGBT world honestly. There isn't one and I think there should be. Also I wanna learn how to make worlds.
Will the problem be fixed slowly or not ...
@twin fractal I do, yes
it's so extremely depresssing @cinder totem
Average vrchat player is completely new to the game and uses the 'anonymity' to spew the most vile things they can come up with, from my experience lol
+1 to that but I fear homophobes... well they fear me
Okay and will I be discriminated against for being over 50?
!online
There are 570 users in VRChat currently
nope dude
Honestly, people aren't going to even ask how old you are unless you sound like you're underage
español? :V
@vocal shard mostly
Grey names should just be muted uwu
You'll hear a lot of "ok boomer" that's about it.
@vocal shard making a world like that would sadly only give trolls an easy place to harras and troll people
@vocal shard unlikely that you will be discriminated against whatsoever. but there will always be rude people at some point. just like there will be some very kind people. VRC is an unfiltered mess of everyone.
If you sound over 20 you'll hear "ok boomer" so...
every second drawing is the picture of the male reproduction organ 😞 but most of them are underaged so they think it's funny.
i mean the amount of english people i see being racist to asian individuals is pretty dumb tbh. these people literally go out of their way to join a asian community and make fun of them cause they don't get enough attention from their parents.
!online

Grey names are often cancer in my experience. I'm still only a known user.
i mean in my way i say be urself dont let anyone bring you down if they dont like they can suck it up
have we heard anything about planned support for the quest hand tracking? i know that the sdk isnt even out yet, just wondering if we have heard anything.
and doesn't see the irony in it
thats public worlds for you. everyones weakpoints are going to be abused for some assumed "fun" its not just LGBT, but obviously one of the most apparent groups that this happens to. i love my friends+
!online
There are 569 users in VRChat currently
Long story short: People suck. But not all people...but it's part of why I end up sticking around the same people because I've had more than my fair share of people being pretty moronic toward me for the low-hanging "mockable" traits
Grey names are just toxic most of the time :c
some of the best people i have met on vrc are grey names guys. dont discriminate against somebody because of their rank or take action against them just because of their rank. i love talking to the new people. they always have a fresh take on the game.
I still think an LGBT cafe world would be a good idea. I mean trolls gonna troll no matter what but it would be nice to have somewhere to meet and hang with LGBT people.
And you're correct tae. You just gotta have thick skin if you're gonna be on a public lobby I guess.
i dont think basing a world on sexuality is a good idea, just like oclac said, but you do / @real terrace this is a video game / a social plattform though
Just get used to muting/blocking people and you're good lol. Eventually you're bound to meet some pleasant people who vibe with you
@undone idol, they already have gay bars in the real world
how about a cafe for asexual people...
yea idk about that i feel like its asking for trouble. there are so many LGBT individuals on VRC already. they not hard to find.
Its back for me, I was able to load into my homeworld.
i think we back fams
@deft light not if they grind your computer to a halt, or use a world destroying shader, during those times, i usually just exit vrchat and open it back up
Vrchat seems to have come back online.
A LGBT+ world could be a great idea
Logically speaking you can make any world you join a world you want it to be, it doesn't need to be labelled as such
There's a world for if you want to watch the pufferfish eat a carrot on a giant screen with a skybox of said pufferfish.
I know but like, a cafe covered in rainbow flags and stuff yknow
Gay bars are pretty lit if you want to party 🤟
just be gay submissive furry like everyone else wtf
I can find other lesbians in VR if there was a Bar
if someone was to make a world like that i'd hope to god that "LGBT" wouldnt be used in the world title, it might as well be "Trolling Hub" at that point
chat is about to die hardcore
I like the idea of an lgbt cafe tbh, you'll get trolls like crazy, but it'd be cool to have a spot for people where they can expect like minded individuals to be
I'm pan and trans and like...no
Just block trolls. ez peazy
capcom cup is on right now if people wanna kill time its day 1
drinking night pls come im lonely
ill come im drinking !

I don't exactly care about trolls, we the free people can boot them out in mere seconds. We gonna give them the big mad.
Im waiting a little so the influx of people doesnt kill the servers
can confirm i just logge din ^^
I mean I could be a gay bar without having LGBT+ in bold on the title. Most placing I know even in real life are like that
I mean, would you say pride parades irl are a bad idea? It's the same principle I suppose. Westborough Baptist (trolls) still harass people irl too lol
Eh, no on a LGBTQIA+ world
alright looks like vrc back up. have a lovely morning/evening/insert time here all
The servers will have difficulty recovering with so many people joining, but it can't be helped right now since this is a high traffic hour.
why @languid olive ?

Because it's not something that's needed

I mean, sure Ruby, but I don't see many worlds ingame that are 'needed' 🤷

Hell yeah, no more complainers clogging the chat.
Time for the cool and nice people to come back and do what matters most. memes and anime.
lol so its lagging but there's no video settings
Begone complainer!!! its memes and anime time!!!!
Lol
Time to go mess with shaders again boo yah!
shaders owO
That sounds like something a complainer would say. Goteeemmm
Stop complaining about them complaining so I can stop complaining about you complaining that they're complaining.
Woah bro why are you complaining so much about me complaining about them complaining about my complaining while I complain?
I feel like complaining isn't a word anymore, we've used it too much already.
Is that a complaint? 🤔
Wait is it really on rn?
jesus, can people just chill it with the ddos attacks lately?
I guess it is. Complain is now a word again! And yes, servers are up.
ddos attack 
Whoever DDOS'ed VRChat fight me in fist to cuffs right now. Bring ur mustache or else.
Aii bet 1v1 jk not me shh
They say that DDoS's are a compliment, you can tell the exact point where games are dead is when they are no longer considered popular enough to bother DDoS'ing.
@solemn wharf Fool?
Yikes
Proof?!!
Yo
You'll get banned for saying that you know, you're admitting to a crime xD
um...i still cannot join other worlds
just join uwu
Annnnd he's toast
Ddos?
Check #announcements.
Your profile pic is beautiful @uneven anvil
Imagine DDOS'ing a game instead of eating pizza.
Thx man @thorny jackal
When VRChat goes offline or gets ddosed by idiots
Everyone: “When’s the game coming back? WHO DID THIS!!”
Me: Goes outside to be active for once
I’m sitting here in a theatre watching a ballet play
BBQ sauce on my-
all right, which script kiddie used their github ddos tool again?
BBQ sauce on pizza is actually lit af ngl.
Pineapple is underrated
Sauce on pizza... 
anything can go on pizza except for pineapples
no especially pineapples.
How did I start this cursed convo
Let's be honest though, Pizza hut has pretty decent Pineapple pizza 🤔
Where is the legendary potato pizza tho
I started it, all me. 😏 pizza convo life
At Domino's Pizza, OneSin
potato pizza LOL
better than pineapple
California Pizza kitchen
pineapple honestly is alright
No memes? 😋
Pea on pizza are abominations
Ah thank you Elire and BlackBeat
Anyone ever put oranges on pizza?
Anchovy on Pizza heh
Alright, so now that VRC is down, let’s decide FINALLY to end this damn charade..
Ayo is it
A: Milk, Cereal, Bowl
B: Bowl, Cereal, Milk
or C: Bowl, Cereal, WATER
milk on table
bowl on milk
cereal around bowl
.... why doesnt pizza hut deliver to me
Tupper out 
I swear to god tipper OPPS I MEAN TUPPER
actually its more like just bowl

Don’t ban me I fat fingered your name I’m so sorry
its ok, most of the time people mess it up and say tucker or something
hey there tucker, good to see you today
Ayo but tipper tho, leave a tip for the vrc homie— HE DID NOT
Heck, I thought it was "Supper" 🤔
Lol
Mopper
Alright who did it, who put the block symbol there
Swear to god it was one of you
Pepehands, Emoji spelling lives matter
yeah he seems cool I saw him a while back in vrchat
Worlds taking pretty long
i cant log into my account because of vrchats auto login
How does the ranking system work?
in vrchat?
or discord?
ranking in vrchat is just how long you play im pretty sure
how do i see my stream chat on my hand in vrchat on oculus rift s
Download "Open VR Twitch Chat" ...

whats a Oauth key?

yeah I've never seen more than 20k online at one time
caps at about 10-12k these days which is pretty good
Ye, even on weekdays its around 7k-9k consistently
People like to meme the whole "Dead game" thing but for the type of game that this is, it's extremely lively and has grown significantly. There were af ew dozen to a few hundred before the boom, suddenly there's thousands
I wonder what, if any numbers they had projected for the game to be at this point before the boom and i kinda wanna ping admin for it lol
its by far the most popular VR game out right now, even if most of the players aren't in VR
no other game even comes close in concurrent daily players
There are no other VR games anyway, other than bonerworks
isn't that what I just said?
No 
Vrchat seems to have a fairly stable population.
did you really think I was comparing VRChat to other 2D games when it comes to player count? lol
Also no, I'm saying no other VR games even exist, they're all bad or tech demos
thats a little disingenuous. Sure theres lots of crappy VR games but theres some good ones too. Lone Echo for instance, and then Asgard's Wrath and Stormlands are a few other examples.
for the longest time I thought Beat Saber was the most popular VR game, so I was surprised to see it still doesn't beat VRChats daily concurrent player count
Does anyone know how to play music through mic? Like youtube and spotify
Thanks VRCHAT. i have never stared so much in the mirror before
Oof
Sad
Im guessing VRCHAT is fixed?
i have a friend who hasnt even disconnected from vrchat during the whole log in issue
Its a good mirror

So, I'm facing a personal dilemma... To be a trap, or to not be a trap. I've imported a decent amount of mmd models into vrchat, all of which are female. However, I'm a guy, so I would be a trap if I actually used a female avatar. It feels a bit awkward using it, so I'm not sure what to do.
You realize using a female model doesn't make you a trap, correct?
No more than using a female model in any other game makes you one I guess
I play as a female in literally every game iveever played 
Well, that's what people in vrchat I've met have been calling it
eh just ignore them, no one with more than 2 braincells actually thinks you're a trap
Yeah being a boy in a cute girl avatar is just that. Being a boy in a cute girl avatar. Sometimes guys wanna be cute more power to you
use whatever you like and don't worry about what anyone else thinks
My voice is deep af though
So? Be cute if you want my guy
Cosigning this
Well, I guess that's cool if a lot of people are doing it too. Didn't want to be the weird outlier
I've heard dudes that sound liek 35 year old truckers that get along fine with anime girl avatars, no big deal really
Is VrChat buggy on quest?
yep
I often crash on my laptop , when I get near mirrors or fire
I wish there was a map like Avatar Testing used to be.
Where people would go there to actually test and work on avatars and seek help in-game.
That was so nice. I met so many neat people that way. Can't seem to find an instance like that anymore.'
Everyone's really so comparably toxic now. It's saddening.
why not take that as a chance to be someone different than those "toxic" people and run a public instance yourself?
I’m trying to create an account on quest but when I click create account it doesn’t do anything. Any ideas?
i dont know how quest works exactly but i think you can just create an account through https://vrchat.com/home/register and use that to log in?
I tried that too, same problem.
A friend of mine still can't log in
Services are gradually coming back online, have them wait just a little longer!
Hey, last night my microphone randomly cut out while playing VRC and I can't seem to get it working again.
so im not the only one having problems trying to log in to VRC ?
hi
Is there any audio output selection for VRChat? My friend's VRChat only does audio out through one device. He's changed the windows default, disabled other outputs, set SteamVR, etc. All other games work, it's just VRChat itself. Also tried and re-install of VRC..
Hey all. I am buying a Rift S today, is it good for VRChat? Does anyone have one here?
Yeah I do
How is it?
I recommend it. I like it a lot
How does it respond? Its all built in right, so I thought maybe it would have some small issues with detecting movement etc?
It works really well. I can DM you a couple videos I made about the tracking systems
That would be really nice.
i returned my rift s a few weeks ago bc it wasnt smooth on vrchat for me
only on superhot/beat saber it was smooth
Vrchat isn't really that kind to many systems tho compared to some other games
Been playing a lot of Boneworks on mine lately
im poor
@modern sand Slep is on the menu tonight, sir.
I take it VRChat is running smoothly again ?
Should be ok now.
Incase you still can't login, try a little while later. The services are slowly being brought back up.
But by the looks of the player count you should be ok.
???
I see ty :3
@reef adder There's no need to type the same messages across multiple channels, please read the #rules before continuing.
A
not that it bothers me, but why does vrc lock to 45 fps in vr for me?
Because of the headsets framerate
oculus rift has only 45 fps? 
well hrz
pavlov runs at 90 locked
well if it cant reach 90, it goes to 45
yea i rather think its because my pc aint hard enough
yeah thats ASW it reprojects every 2nd frame
20 man great pug lobby brings it to 30 fps avg
Vrchat is a laggy game
Thats pretty good tbh
yeah it is
i know, i've been playing vrc since ending 2017
30 fps feel completly fine and smooth, it feels better than playing a regular game at 30 fps
Even with optmized stuff the game tanks when theres a bunch of people
one question no person can answer is, why is the new japan shrine so much worse than the old shrine
:(
oh, that could actually be true
Yup
i use oculus tray tool to disable ASW so it doesnt kick in when you go below 45fps
Hmm I was meaning to give that tool a go.
what tool?
its a tool that overrides some of the oculus stuff if you want
so you have more control
UM
Nah 
Tha sky >->
the ceiling
Nico got it right.
the void
I see one error when i connect..
The movie part you stole from me
...damn paci made the story dark FAST. xD
I usually say "A movie" when someone asks "What's up"
I say the ceiling.
You stole that from me

Funny story
When I met Fapiano, he asked "Whats up, please dont say the sky"
I replied "A movie made by pixar"
...?
I said that before I even knew you
re
Hi

Nik you never asked your question.
He did lmao
i can't play VRChat, bc i see error map...?
@broken plover Why do you keep showing us Brendon Fraiser?
Lmao

because it funey
He HATES it what I say that.

But yeah I cant believe I missed another person with my avatar because I went to bed
Hes not here so he cant hate you 

But bag in the end is a sweetheart.
Hes a memeheart
@hardy grotto what map?
He throws bags at people and doesn't afraid of anything xD
Nono, he is a bag
Exactly, he throws himself at us!
Lul "Yeeeet"
The bag we need yet do not deserve.

@fickle fog wait second
I messed up my shaders on my oc avatar, she looks all weird now.
Time to feex eet \o.o/
f
maybe... i can't use VRChat anymore...?
Youve been excluded from the mirror dwellers my dude
... i can play ON VRChat.... BUT on one map: when something wrong....
Then its the map
Confirm the issue by going to other worlds, like known worlds such as The Great Pug or Japan Shrine. If those give you issues as well then it's on your end. But if not then it's just those worlds before that are having problems.
which version of Unity do I use for avatars now? I heard about the 2018 update
That isnt out yet
ah so the 2017 version still
yes. The 2018 is only for beta
I can't play normal VRChat, bc i can play on Error World and i don;t know.....
There's no way to appear offline in VRChat, is there?
No, there isn't.
You can however appear as Busy, you won't get notifications though.
Heck, that's a tad bogus, but okay.
i cant upload a skin 😦
idk
If you're below New User then you can't upload content.
Just play as normal, socialize, explore worlds, make friends etc. and you will eventually get ranked up. Once you reach new user, you will get an ingame notification and an email informing you that you may now upload content.
i mean are you using a VRchat account or login with steam or oculus?
Steam
yeah
steam acc's cannot make things
you need a VRchat account
even then i think Qhala is right?
so you would need to socialize and get to user rank first to make the things
so yeah, making models is hard to start out, but then you realise CATS plugin can handle most anything and there is like maximum of 12 buttons you need in blender to make most things
its litterally got a "fix model" button
ok oof that dont work
but like with cats its just, get model, press fix, run through some issues and bring it to unity
where do you get most of your models?
good to know, thanks
heck, maybe I'll give avatar creation a go with those models
yeah
from what i can tell you like zeraora
that should be easy to make because of how humanoid of a thing it already is
yeah
all you would need to do is add a bone to the wrist because a thumb is a key bone
humanoid avatars are also the best for full body
yeah
proportion plays a big role
like you can have perfect leg positioning but if your arms are to long or to short nah
I've had trouble trying to use avatars that didn't support full body, whilst in full body
yeah
often involves clipping through the floor or stretching body parts
so like example, vrchat says that my mr mime works fine in full body
but because of long arms it can go to the floor when i squat
I see
so he will not werk
Do I have to do that every time or can I press a button on my controller?
It's menu only, so push-to-talk is not really that practical in VR.
I think it would be possible
If you want PTT in VR your best bet is to run through SteamVR and use OpenVR Advanced Settings. That can do PTT and uses SteamVR Input bindings for it.
^
ahh yes, input bindings
Is sending pictures allowed here?
might have to confirm with a chat mod
I see
what kind of picture?
from Vr chat
like one taken with the in-game camera?
yep
I think #vrchat-pictures is the place to post those
I see thank you.
Yup, head on down there and post your VRC photos :D
so is there a padoru raid plan?xd
why vr chat i on afk why go home auto self
I can't comprehend this
He is speaking the language of gods
What?
Ummm agree
Where do you guys like to hang out in vrchat?
Japan Shrine, Murder 2 and Sky Camp are the best ones imo
The Black Cat 
Black Cat is cool too, but populated worlds has highest probability of having annoyances
Yeah, I've liked Japan Shrine a lot
So you're saying that Murder 2 isn't populated?
Though sky camp always seems to lag for me
And Black Cat seems to be relatively chill most of the time when I'm there 
Hanging out in Murder 2 seems like a weird choice considering people are likely to be actually trying to play the game...
Not exactly a hangout map lol
Which is why I don't usually go there
I usually hang in never have I ever
I may have played Murder 2 way too much for my own good :x
Lol
Last I ayed murder I was the killer, I killed two people in a room and hid in a closet
Then I waited 2 minutes and I heard gunshots
The investigator killed everyone but him and me
Then I tried killing him but died lol
One time everyone was bunched up in the same corner and I ran through all of them with the knife
chop
The big pig
Murder 2 is full of children and I run into the most client users in there so enjoy being kicked for no reason by hackers. But it is fun shooting annoying teenagers
Yeah I never see more kids in one place than murder now that you point it out
Black cat 🐈
It's probably the kids migrating from gmod ttt
Lakuza Lounge
The key is to make friends that don't mind your awkwardness and then you stop being awkward around them anyway because you're not worried about what they'll think, etc. Kinda like the opposite of a catch 22.
I have a friend in game named Catch-22, omg.
Lol
Unfriend him. You need the opposite of catch 22
Yes and then settle with those friends and never walk out of your comfort zone until you need new ones
And avoid strangers
No. He's my Army buddy.
But it's more of a boring type of awkwardness
I made most of my good friends mute so there's more uhh
disconnect i guess from things i don't really like about my personality
Tbh making friends as a mute isn't really hard
Making friends as a mute is easier!
nothing bad just boring and passive
I made one today being mute/really quiet.
Hello
Is this mute gang?
plus not taking makes you more expressive because you need to gesture stuff
How I do it as mute:
- Headpat them until your arm falls off
- Point at the Friend Request icon on my arm
- Get a positive response most of the time
- Profit
Soundss legit
What am I supposed to do they're Japanese
- ???* Then profit
Well no because one time they just shrugged
More like, never ask for a friend request but try to condition then to wanting to send one and feel good about people wanting to add you without asking

nu, nu, I'm just doing the meme. ówò
Here's how to get a ton of random friend requests:
- Be cutesy anime girl
- Dance with full body
I can't dance, so I guess I'm going for option one with my voice training.
I think headpats are over rated tbh, try being a violent mute. Hard mode activated
Lots of friends is bad
Well yeah but that's how people friend request you without you asking them
It can get to a point where you can't get a break
Otherwise the only people that do are usually just randoms who try to add everyone because they desperately want to rank up
It's your choice to accept tho 
What are some crowded worlds right now so i could meet some people? i am waltsing around worlds but i am not seeing many people
I have 100+ friends, but only two or three people actively hang out with me when I'm on. :(
Well I choose to be active myself and find people rather than just waiting for someone to come to me
Sounds like you only have 2-3 friends then
I don't have more than 10 online friends during the day
The most amount of friends I had on was yesterday when the servers worked again
I need to do another purge, more like. They're all always initially chummy and then permanently in private worlds.
Purges are good. If I can't remember who you are anymore goodbye
Aly I don't even see you most of the time when I lurk the website
I have friends who never purge and friend everyone and they get quite an arm workout looking through their online friends
I haven't been on lately because of social anxiety
Ah
Our times online never really match up either. :(
Yeah time zones be like that
I don't mind if you decide to ping me anytime, though.
<_< aw, peck
I only pruned my friends list once and that was because I had too many randoms from the beginning of me playing the game
When I was a visitor with zero friends and having anything at all was very welcome
Can relate
Understandable lol
But eventually I made some proper friends that I was also in contact with through Discord and then there wasn't much lost unfriending all the random people
Sitting at 126 friends atm, lemme look through it and tell you how many I have absolutely no idea about who they are
Also apparently Steam accounts can change names.... I hate that a lot
I've found a lot of people trying to friend me before they even speak to me these days, it's odd. Like 30 seconds after seeing me.
Non-Steam accounts can change names too, btw.
The problem is when a Steam account changes name, I can't recognize it anymore
It's a name I've never seen before and the "original name" is a Steam acc
I get a lot of friend requests in publics from people I never spoke to either
Ah
E_Bag somehow managed to do that though at least he is still named E_Bag. I had someone else who changed to something completely different + people who merge their acc and have a completely different name
Only if I use voice chat though. If I am mute, it doesn't happen...
I hope they also don't feel bad about me unfriending them because this is madness
No amount of taking notes can help with that
Mine just says "ENVEREX ENVEREX" and I started as a Steam account and always log in via Steam.
He said he merged his
His random letters and numbers at the end of his name are gone
But it still says it's a Steam acc
Now imagine this nonsense with someone who's got himself a completely new name
So I look at it and be like "Nani the fuck are you?"
E_bag must have experienced "an equivalent exchange from the Rokakaka tree."
Even worse if it's a merged acc with a new name.
That's rather odd. Or maybe mine's the exception here, weird.
No, yours is how it's supposed to be
You created a VRChat acc and after merging, you can login via Steam, but the name of your VRChat acc isn't supposed to change
It's not supposed to say "Steam_3987483720" or something after the merge
I've seen that on other accounts though, now that you mention it.
E_Bag is the JoJolion Josuke confirmed.
And it's so weird in E_bags case because Steam acc's aren't supposed to not have the random numbers and letters at the end
And his acc looks like a Steam acc
It's also never fun to look through your whole friendslist to find out which person is missing to find out who that completely new and random person is with a name you have never seen before
He could contact VRC about this.
I mean I told him all of that and he didn't even really understood what I was on about 
I don't think they could fix this but at least it would be better to let them know.
Probably
But yeah, this is why we need a first party solution to add notes to people
So that it sticks around after merging and I'm not gonna look at someone with a name I've never seen before
Information is the key.
I hope VRChat's going to keep that as their motto after Udon.
It's a social platform after all, and we need more communication tools.
I mean there are a few third party solutions for this but I don't think they really help with the merging issue
And yes, we do. Not being able to contact someone who isn't ingame and in the same instance is kinda poop
Do you mean like a text chat?
I don't think VRC is happy about third-party solutions.
I'm not happy either, which is why we need first party ones ASAP
Same with messaging people
They're probably going to start working on some features after Udon, so I'd give it about half a year.
Yeah Discord is nice and all except someone's Discord account is completely disconnected from their VRChat account, and if you don't have someone's Discord you can't reach them until you randomly happen to be on at the same time
Which can take months because time zones
I bet they're going to release a significantly better UI only in late 2020 if not later.
Id love if they get some actualy buttons instead of lazer pointers
But at the same time, they got so many settings crammed into there menu currently it would be hard to fit
Am fine with the laser pointers
We all know how well buttons work in VRChat with physical objects 
cough camera cough
Boneworks though.
Never played it, never watched gameplay of it, I dunno
The doesnt have proper physical buttons though
It's literally a physics demo with a bit of story slapped on top of it.
Look at how PokerstarVR handles there buttons
Its sooooo neat to use them
Hell yeah.
Its like fun to use them. Same for recroom
weebs OMEGALOL
RecRoom is sort of comfortable but it treats your hands as giant fingers.
Pretty much Oclac
@vocal shard don't post the same shit in multiple channels
Posting the same statement across multiple channels with the intention of getting attention? 
and its also omegalul and not omegalol 
4Head
Well that ended faster than my cat sneezing.
Pretty much
after going to that Japanese modelmaker Avatar event, I nevre wanna hear anyone complain about unoptimized shit in publics ever again. That was horrid performance-wise even if the event was fun overall lol
Who need frames when you cna have a nice picture book experience c:
i capped at like 30-ish
which NEVER happens in even the worst worlds I go to normally not including people with intentionally laggy models which is usually done via shader anyway
Oh and for t he other event I missed, the one with the hologram-type shader, apparently communication between instances was near-instant
which spells something amazing for future large-scale events
That sounds like an exploit which would end up patched out...
its not though
It's a shader that captures depth/textures combined with a livestream player
I mean that's an oversimplification but it's not using any tools that don't have to be pre-planned by the world creator and organized via multiple users to be used in a very specific and almost unabusable way. I mean technically we could just do it with two livestream panels anyway, this is just more immersive
Unless they plan on patching out livestream players I suppose
i wish there was video of it....kinda surprised there's not
https://twitter.com/VoxelKei/status/1206264016160481281 ah t here is now
looks like a little over 1 second's worth of delay
perfectly synced
That's crazy
so that hologram is actually someone in another instance?
Yep
that's pretty dang cool
Insane wth
They hosted an entire concert like this, except it was one-way
It uses the depthfield setup and "Topaz Player Ultra" which I don't know what that is
Was vrc glitched for anyone last night
Vrc got ddosed
Oh, it seems it's a player that lets you sorta stream audio/video from your PC through....something? I'm not sure
1. Start TopazChat.exe 2. Select audio input device (default audio device is selected by default) 3. Press the connect button 4.Enter the URL displayed in the text box to VRC_SyncVideoStream
!online
There are 8317 users in VRChat currently
is this the chat where you can ask for assistance with vrchat stuff? i kinda got ignored in general lol
Udon closed alpha testing, nice. Wish the docs were public for the rest of us
I wanna study up on the functions
I wonder whooooo has it 
I assume most the guys in Prefabs

Hey ppl I just got my oculus yesterday and am new to VRChat, are there any things I should know before starting?
Ugandan knuckles are back
Dammit
Saw them lost night clucking around
Also where an anime avatar for head scratches or a cute animal like a ferret
Trying to find an inkling avatar rn but the anime awoo is my placeholder until then
Oh there should be a world specifically with those i thought
trying to remember the guy's name
Forgot to say I’m on quest which is really annoying
how come my videos won't play in the sync video thing? I paste a link and it does not play the screen stays black.
Didn’t realize there was a quest general until now
If you're on Quest your options are very limited
Ah then yeah, the avatars i know of aren't quest ones
https://vrchat.net/launch?worldId=wrld_84b4fe0a-efb3-4f9d-b8e8-34f11d2c4a54&instanceId=84140 you can try though, maybe he put in the work to make thme quest compatible
dude's like the king of inkling models so maybe
That world looks really awesome
Heck
I remember seeing one avatar room with a super random assortment of avatars and one of them was an inkling oc, so I think the guy probably took that avatar from a different world

Wtf inverted eye
That's a default emoji

Do you want to join them or host one?
Host
Cant help you with setting it up but to advertise it you can get it posted within #events
To do so its best to join the event server from VRC that is listed within #community-servers-old
Hosting an event means you plan it like IRL
Has Gama always been around?
Jup
Only started seeing them recently
I was immediately kicked from a world as soon as I joined.
has anyones pc display settings changed after vrchat when black and crashed?
that sounds like a graphics card error
could be. I use a gtx 970
Gama is an OG dude
Can’t find any article about how to host events lol
oofg
Why am I getting kicked as soon as I joined a world?
It's also been an hour and I can't rejoin
How do u join the community event
Bruh is erp actually a thing?
yes unfortunately
Fortunately those with common sense perform erp in private worlds
Oh nice at least they do a good thing to not show that in public
Yeah
I'm pretty sure you can get punished for inappropriate behaviour in public worlds like that
What do when you see people ERPing?
screenshot and open a report ticket with that screenshot as proof
Tattle tale Tattle tale!
Can also get banned for private worlds for doing that stuff
If you get reported your clapped, public, friends+ or private
Why would you report someone in private world?
lets be honest. Who would report their friends in a private world ^
What are you some kind of gate keeper to online relationship
I'm quite sure you can do that stuff in private worlds
you can but if you get reported youre screwed
It's not allowed in private worlds
I'm just glad that I haven't had to deal with it yet
how do I move around in full body tracking (4 points) mode ?
Pressing a direction in the vive controller pad does nothing
are you sure you're calibrated?
yes once calibrated
The normal movement should work after you calibrate it
i can move around in the playspace but not force the avatar to move to explore the room for example
weird ....
is this the first time you've tried FBT?
does that also happen if you dont have that tracker? Might be that your vive controller is broken
Hmmm.
It should just be load the avatar, pull both triggers to calibrate and unlock the avatar, and then it works like normal
just checked it works flawlessly without
ok am gonna try this
ok turning the tracker after the game is stared does work
thanks for the tip
glad you fixed it
Has anyone used JetDogs keypad prefab before? I'm wondering where I set the correct password. There doesn't seem to be any documentation besides a changelog
Edit: For future travlers using the search feature, you just set the name field on the root keypad object to the password

I have been playing vrc for 11 hours straight help
The ones that say they're active?
Idk how can u tell?
lmzo
Im new
Why u bully me
they will have a number in a corner
XD nah am jk but fr dunno
In the world search, there's different tabs for what worlds are active right now
In the menu I mean
Open the menu and go to the world tab there is a tab active list
Click on those and then click on the one with the highest number
Settings > worlds?
Esc*
Ok thanks y'all
Oh another thing. These include online worlds made by others?
All worlds are made by users of VRchat beside the spawn world and a small list of others that are irrelevant
report all ERP regardless of where it takes place.
Can someone explain what ERP is
Entertaining Reality Pictures
Cognitive behavioral therapy
damn some ppl really out here tryna tell ppl that they can't erp in a private world?
I mean I've only heard of some ppl doing it but like it's not a public world so why report someone in their own private world?
it's a slippery slope
Bravo six, going erotic.
10-4
No one is "Tryna tell people" they can't, it's literally against the rules.
and just because it's in a private world doesn't mean it's their OWN private world. you're jumping to a lot of conclusions.
it's against the rules, period. Will you get in trouble if it's private? Most likely not, but if you do it's still against the rules

Scroll down to Inappropriate Content
Says so right there.
i just wanna know if anyone else has experiences this
this is the second time ive crashed in vrchat where upo waiting in game for abit for the posibility of it reloading, i hear light yagamis laugh
Use Safety Settings
im thinking its an avatar tbh
Likely is
and i do use safety settings
What settings do you use?
F
They allow custom animations for Users and everything for Trusted
safey settings are bad 🗿
hmm, welp, if anyone else has experienced this im certain its a new avatar ppl use to crash with
Use custom settings and only keep Voice and Avatar on for everyone except Friends
If you don't want to see avatars with broken Shaders you can have Shaders on too, but keep Custom Animations off
For everyone though
i just wanted to kow if anyone experienced it, rlly seems like an avatar
I know someone who has experienced something similar
The Trust System blocking si definitely buggy, not 100% reliable which is why some people seem to think it being circumvented is so common
I've swapped avatars and had someone come up to me and ask if I was using a client because suddenly he could see my model despite having non-friends turned off due to lag
f
all I did was swap from one model and back to fix a full body issue
usually an internet connection issue
Yes Mic you're a client user now xD
uwu that time when you play on a map for like an hour and then game summons you to your house uwu
Famous Vtuber? Nah
Famous client user? Yea
life must be tough uwu
me client boi no ban pls is for protecc
No Mic you is ban now
👀
But yeah I've noticed the safety settings being BS with sounds before
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCHcieghZ_0 Clientbois when they finally get banned
I've also noticed Ruuuub circumventing my safety settings reee
I think they're immune to everything
Well I could hide him, and later on safety settings did apply to him as well
can't block, mute, etc even though Ron's mic is loud as FUCK
oh, then it must be that you can't block or mute them
So I dunno if that's a toggle he has
Possibly
On the website, yes. Ingame the buttons still show up
Although I don't dare to press them to see if they work 
my friend asked if he could mute him and he was like "uhhh no" lol
his gain HAS to be at like 900
AT2020 strapped to his face, gain on maximum
Good thing I've never met Ron
ron needs a loud mic to scream over all the streamers and streamer fanbois he has to deal with
"Deal with" 
implying he's not the streamer orbiter 
Are there any worlds where you can decorate a christmas tree c:?
Wow a Good suggestion ⭐
Hm not that I know but sounds like a good idea
Wow that's kinda
jinx
would be amazing
I think itd be super cuteeee~!
how has no one done that 
yoink
Yeah please do
Maybe they'll do a Christmas contest and announce the winners in February after it ends in December
I demand 10% commission :3
that's more of a project tho
community made project
Hm I guess it is yeah. People who get picked or pick a slot or something get to send in art and the bigger streamer you are, the bigger spot you get or something right? Like last year? 
Then you send in your art, poster, etc and pill puts it in
it was first come first serve last year, this year you had to fill in an application with a rough idea and sketch and youd be judged from that. the big streamers got spots way before everyone which is wack, but then there was no bias, i dont think
Yeah something tells me while it might be first come first serve, not everyone was told about it at the same time 
eeh
Oh shit there's a Gentleman's Force one lol
what i didnt like about this years is that because you no longer apply through just pinging pill, we had to fill a google form so people applied for same spots and it was kinda a fight
a quick 360 at the spawn shows the biggest, most prominent ones being the bigger streamers from 2018, sooooo
With a few "how did this get here
" sprinkled in
Couple of my friends have one I think
But I mean I get it, it's not really a community project, feels more like Pill's thing that allows community stuff in it yknow
like the VRC Rewind
although the rewind was much more a community thing with the organization and work that went into it
pill organizes it, yeah, but whats wrong with that 
Oh, nothing is wrong with it
I'm just saying it feels less like a community project and more like his own personal project that allows community submission, I guess
Any one up up to explore scary places pm me
ah found it, the most important poster https://puu.sh/EPU7E/481e983aec.png
I don't think I'll be able to make a poster this year. Wasn't invited
someone asked me to help with theirs but I think they got it covered
I wish the movie map got one tho 💔
I mean unless someone took it upon themselves, I know for a fact it doesn't have one
ah, fair enough
something i never liked is just streamers making posters about themselves
I mean I get it for teams to be honest, but if you're just like "AH ITS ME MIC SOUNDERS" and thats your poster
Yeah, makes sense
Even the team ones though just feel like advertisements, which I guess makes sense but I'm fairly sure it was mostly just art that already existed
"join the X gang"
I dunno, just seems kinda circlejerky but i kinda understand it i guess
I like the ones that are like actual ads, like Jamie's or the Gentleman's Force one
just "hey its me that streamer you watch" is 💤
fake movie posters, ads, etc seem like the better way to go
yee
as in like....should be mandatory lol
Anyone having worlds not detecting their old versions and only uploading as new worlds?
"Hi this is my stream team here's the art we collectively spent like 400 dollars on" is sorta 💤 too, like it'll obviously be higher quality than what the standard user can come up with
price just kinda going by what something decent quality with multiple characters, colored, halfbody etc usually goes for
nuthin
hey is it safe to talk to someone on here named red?
why would anyone know the answer to that
Shhhh
is it safe to give you that answer
Theres a spy amoung us
Red is among us
So umm when will Worlds menu add the Christmas world list like last year.
thats a good question
I'm kinda waiting for one cuz I want to submit my world and be listed.
So far I know Oct has the Halloween World List and Dec has the Christmas World list.
What's your IPD?
It should be clear from 59-69mm
I dont know my IPD
set digitl ipd since it might fiz it
It is on the software yeah
Blurry in what sense? Are the pixels clear, but it's not like monitor sharp?
