Yes community meetup is the real stress test
But I think that's really where those high requirements are coming from. That, and the fact that each eye is rendered separately + slightly higher requirements due to tracking
that might be why i had better performance on my rift s
Kinda wish I had a better CPU though. The Meetups require me to max out just about everything
🤔
As in, no Dynamic Bones and No Avatars for anyone except friends
though my performance is back to normal with 0.8 SS
If it gets really bad, no avatars for friends either D:
So for me, Meetups are always Quest experience for me
You cant
You literally can’t, the hub world is not quest compatible
But having all avatars hidden comes pretty close to what playing on the Quest is like
pretty much
So I kinda just have the Quest Experience every time I'm at the Meetups
Really the only time I ever have to go that far
whats the point of meet ups
the limit being 5k polys and no dynamic bones and shitty shaders is already saying a lot
@slate verge World creators show off their work
So you visit brand new or WIP worlds together with the person who made it
I’ve been to the meetup using game streaming services, those PCs can’t handle it in desktop
so its just a bunch of creators going around
you can force show mobile shader avatars at your own risk though
Well pretty much. It's just to show off worlds basically
you can do that with friends
Without the world author then and a lot of the worlds shown may not even be released yet
It’s more for showing off to other creators or getting feedback
i guess so
Sure ya can go world hoppin' with just your friends, but really the point of the Meetups is that you visit these worlds WITH the person who made 'em
yeah
Though ya gotta be okay with large crowds of people
These events always have 40+ people attending
rip performance
It can theoretically get up to 80
Recently had 80 people
The random desync and the 420mb world with 10 FPS were fun
Honestly always a blessing when a new instance is being made and I join and I can turn off my safety again and see people xD
At least for the minute or two it takes for everyone to join back
The community Meetup is still a lot of fun
It is
Yeah, though for me it's only really worth it if I have friends there
I want a better CPU.
Otherwise I'm not going to like it and will leave quickly
The Black Cat on Quest feels like a community meetup

This is a true fact
Black cat on Quest feels like chernobyl
Comments you can feel
The quest has a greater limit on audio sources so populated instances glitch out the music easier making the world sound like its dying.
I see people running around with 100k+ tri avatars on quest and it just makes me sad
That is also a issue
Well its good then that those dont load by default..
im having fun at a world
Hey So I Got A Rift S And I Dont Have A Displayport Plugin Spot i Need A HDMI Anyone know The Best One To Get
Can you please not capitalize every word?
he didnt capitalize the "i" which ironically should have been capitalized
He also broke rule 15 he's already taking about it in #vrchat-general-1
ree.
@ruby needle hey thanks, glad to be a part of it :^)
Is it possible to use virtual reality as a webcam?
Eh?
Like get a live view of virtual reality and use it as a webcam
or you mean just use the camera on the headset as a webcam? because yes its a video input just like any other
you can just show your desktop as a webcam with a software like manycam
than just put a vr mirror on the desktop youre showing
Is there like a pop out window for the vrchat camera?
What exactly is it you want to achieve anyways?
Like, what do ya wanna do? And why your VR headset?
if you use the stream camera, it replaces the vrchat mirror on your pc with the camera view if thats what you want
Okay thanks
but I mean, you should have known this if you tried any of this before asking lol
How can I easily press the buttons on the stream camera
yikes
you can't
Keep trying. Also pray you're not in a trigger volume because ha ha ha good luck
yes, that will break raycasting.
The camera hasn't been touched since launch has it?
I think they messed with the selfie stick a week later
It had some basic improvements but otherwise not much
Who threaten to ddos vrchat?
The launch camera was literally a block, with more blocks for buttons.
@rigid crescent does the selfie stick actually do anything?
Does it matter? You have an anonymous profile pic, the only thing worse than an anime one
well, whatever u do, dont buy a pre-built pc
It's not anonymous
I think it extends reach? Is it just for show?
lmfao
The selfie stick increases the grab range on the camera. The stick itself is completely useless and cannot be grabbed.
Oh excuse me then. Either way the ddosers don't matter.
Don't need to be toxic? i was asking a question
You talk about me having a "anonymous" pfp when you legit, have your vrchat avatar as your profile picture
so the selfie stick just makes it harder to press the buttons lol
most selfie sticks have a button
You're probably a lonely fuck that erps all day 🤷
and youre the one calling people toxic?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@versed knoll No need to insult other users. Like, ever.
calm down dude, the anonymous is a meme lol
chill out
Gallium I'm in kingsman lmfao
Oh word
👀
And that matters how?
Jan 1st watch out ❤️

for what?
dont click that lol
DoNt CoMe To VrChAt ToMoRrOw
naw I ain’t clicking that lmao
It's legit our website lmfao
that exactly why you shouldn't click it
Yeah sure whatever you say pal
i love gyazo, it's helped me make so much money
lmfaoo
get a https next time and I might click it lol
Eh we are getting a, domain soon

Honestly only joined because someone, told us people were talking about us. 🤷
I legit have no idea who you are or watcha want
same
^^
I dont think people really care to be honest. Vrchat gets DDOSd all the time anyways
Nah it doesn't vrchat just has shitty servers
Vote me 2020
Yo
¯_(ツ)_/¯
we couldnt give less shit about some bored teens that think they are cool hackers by ddosing the servers
O
Never called myself a hacker, never said we were gonna ddos it?
I simply asked who was gonna ddos the servers?
I never did either
Lol no one mentioned anything about you
Am i talking to you..?
🍿
🍿
Well who are you even talking to anyways?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I mean you weren't referring to anyone in particular. You said why you joined.
LOL
I think hes talking to himself, its to only way he can win an argument anyways
I'm not even arguing lmfao
So just to clarify
You asked "was I talking to you" but also didn't know who you were talking to?
I was talking to Redotix lmfao
hi I am here
@vocal shard you kinda cute ngl
So to get things straight this guy has an edgy hacker pfp and a website that seems really dodgy, he's telling people to be careful for January 1st and a few minutes ago was calling people toxic while also cussing them out. I ain't buying it chief
Welcome to "This is a public channel" and "Anyone can participate in any discussion happening here"
Lol
Hit up PL or something it's fun
Get off your high horse @ Advicee
He dipped
It'll pass no worries. RP is fun.
It reminds me of when I was a kid and imsgined I was a part of Kid's Next Door
I like doing the infinite walk with playspace mover and act like I am an npc in the work
sometimes people actually take notice even lol
I love seeing that
Ya mean like turning but still walking straight in VR?
its funny that I have never met a single person from this server in game yet, even though I am in publics all the time
There's lotta worlds and lotta people hang out in F+ or above
yeah, just never use the insanely high speed walking animations
I've seen two people in one instance walk around like that
yeah true but I always hear people here meeting up in game but that has yet to happen t ome
Sadly my play space is too small to pull that off without it looking weird
same
I have to 180 turn too much + cable
I need to walk front and back instead of an 8 shape so it looks a bit weird but there are ways to make it look more believable with practice
But yeah, am just gonna walk around using the normal walk
I've met a few people, but I'm in publics at weird hours
well personally. I hate using the walking controls because vive dildos
Well play space walking doesnt really make it better for me
So dont really have any alternatives
I hate using the Teleport thingy to walk
Okay
why do I feel bad for saying that?
?
I feel like I upset you
How come
IDKlol
I feel normal in real life
holoport is great for memeing. You can strike a t-pose and then you walk around in t-pose
I am turning Eighteen in January.
oo
I am turning 17 in february
Nice!
I hope the knuckles come in stock by than
INDEX
fuck that meme, get it out of here
too late
👀
O.O
the rift S and quest were sold out around the same time but they're back in stock starting january already
i just hope the index doesn't take like 2 months to come back lol
i really wanna replace my vive with it
no
if i were to order a quest or S i'd get it on 14th
@rigid crescent https://i.imgur.com/m5uBfLw.png
The Index I mean
how often do you guys crash because of memory usage
Never
How much RAM do ya have?
i never crash due to that aswell
8GB
Get 16+

i have 8 on 2 sticks
8 per stick
hmm, i'm running steamvr and vive program, and my usage is already 50%
oh and chrome is eating a bunch
but less than 1GB each
???
Hmm. I'm on 16gb as well.
I usually have Vrchat, discord, obs, steamvr, and oculus running at the same time
pretty much the same for me here
minus obs, i only used that a few times
happened to not crash during obs usage
i haven't seen any "big" settings in game that i can change, what settings do you mean?
When the game launches, hold Shift. It will open a separate options window. By default it's on the highest
cool, i will try that
so, i started at 1.2gb usage, then ran around a bunch of places, then came back to private home world, and now i'm at 3.1gb usage
it's like a leak or something?
VRChat
Where are you crashing? Any specific worlds, etc?
i have crashed on loading into a world, in pug, in home hub after a long time of playing, that final hallway world from undertale, but i can be in those worlds for a while if i go there first thing on opening vrchat
but as soon as it's been a while, moving around to other worlds gets unstable and eventually i crash
It really really sound like a memory crash
it is a memory crash, the logs tell me it is
Oh okay but you said you have 16 GB?
ytep
I had 8 before and I would crash every 30 mins
Now I have 24 GB and I haven't had a memory crash since
what's your idle usage not with vrchat open
it could be that for me, because i dont have vvrchat open anymore and it's using 8.5gb
7gb free
i mean, everything else other than vrchat is 8.5ggb
Wish I had the numbers of the top of my head. I'm away from my computer at my relatives place rn
Do you know your GPU specs?
like graphics card? 1060 6GB
would i use a tool or something from online to do that?
nvm, i see windows has it's own thing
Nice
gonna restart and check integrity
I got a new harddrive with 2TB and VRChat is still using my C: drive for cache
how do I change that
@dusky mesa try moving to #user-support-old
I think it's stuck in c drive
There's a way to basically instantly transfer from default to somewhere else
I think triping or other mentioned that
please implement a feature to change cache location
especially with how much this game requires
Or you know clear it every now and again.
@twin fractal You can move it wherever you want and create a symlink to it
You can do this to move pretty much any folder anywhere because windows just treats the fancy shortcut as if the folder's actually there
That's the thing, thanks pumkin
neat it worked
but since it's treating it like a shortcut, it's still using my C: drive's power so it'll be the same slow speed
How do I locate a world by the world id
have you tried searching it in the world search? never really considered looking a world up that way
http://thegreatpug.com/vrchat-link-generator/ actually try this
@worn nova ID in like, this "wrld_6b08d25f-e520-4f48-b613-1f3a1f8f85cd"?
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=[world id without brackets]
oh will /world pick it up on its own?
oooh it does
Good thing he left
As in, left the convo 🙄
Hm
@rigid crescent So how was the JP event? Wasn't there because was busy with somethin' unfortunately
oh my god
it was so crazy
I don't know 100% how it works as far as organization, but from what I can tell he'll have a few different people as hosts, talkative and outgoing people I'd assume, and they help him in the initial lobby kinda keep the flow of things going
mostly just to help new people and whatnot
then when that lobby fills, he'll find a group that's talking and asks them to go to a new world with him, drops another instance of the world, then leaves with that group so the "seeds" of another event can start
but i think he filled like....3 20-something man lobbies this weekend lol
so I'd follow through because I do better with smaller groups in a situation like that and eventually left to go chill with some other friends, then noticed some other friends were in an oldy lobby that died down a bit and went to meet them and their friends and we just had fun
Aipo and Moisan from that one VRC band I like sang me happy birthday 
we goofed around a bit then i left to go eat, it was a lot of fun though
https://twitter.com/micsounders13/status/1210630007216885761 their friends are a lot of fun and just kinda goof around lol
Aipo is the other Mimino and Moi is the tan girl with headphones.
Ah
People use it as kind of a setting to enjoy japanese tea snacks together as well. they'll get some dango and whatnot for the IMMERSION and because they enjoy them
ok yeeeee
Im closer to getting the vr goggles
so monday ill have over $200 if i dont spend much this weekend
so by NEXT monday ill probs have enough for the goggles
Maybe I'll have my "PCVRC compared to QuestVRC" video will be out by then since I remembered my friend has a Quest or I'll just forget tomorrow and never even record for it
How do I get to trusted rank to upload models
!online
Becoming verified by the trust system is based on reaching a not time based trust score, which's exact algorithm is unknown to prevent exploitation.
You presumably need to play the game in a normal manner with your VRChat account, walking around, meeting people and also making some friends. Idling won't help.
According to many responses in this discord, a rough estimate would be ** 20-40 hours**, but big exceptions are possible.
Make sure you are not using a steam or oculus account and continue playing the game until you get a notification or e-mail.
http://help.vrchat.com/kb/article/27-why-cant-i-upload-avatars-or-worlds-yet
There are 11754 users in VRChat currently
whew, 12k and its still early
I’m thinking about getting another headset. Someone tell me I should
it's like 04:33 here.
It's gonna fucking happen

even though its probably not true, i jsut assume americans are the majority of VRC players 🙂
who said 24 hours lol
Highest playercount should propably be on weekend late EU which is afternoon US
"a rough estimate would be 20-40 hours, but big exceptions are possible."
that's like nothing in a social game
true
I wanna know @vocal shard share with me your knowledge
what are the exact peak times
Numbersmith, Keeper of the Census
ive had to fucking legit, unplug and replug my rift s like 10 times today, only day one
maybe some incompatible USB controller or bad driver
that's typically the cause i belive
Nope, I need to do it every time I shut off my computer
I have tried both of by usb 2.0 ports
What is the best way to go about reporting someone using a modded client and ripping people's avatars?
With proof via #moderation-reports
just out of curiosity, they ripped a private model that the user uploaded and not a public model that was supposed to be kept private?
it's on my stream right now and he's being a dick to a lot of people
ok thank you
if youve got vid proof it should be dealt with pretty quickly
hopefully
Oh god im watching the vod, that kid is SOOO edgy holy shit
oh god he's so cringy oh god
Hmm?
yeah I'm trying to get him separate to get him to admit
he just admited to antiban though
he went into the API and favorited it
which i can do without even being in the game if I know the modelmaker
and if the model is set to public
lol im watching the stream, and everything he's saying is 100% true sadly
"If you want your model private it should be uploaded to your account and set to private"
some dude is getting a client user to pretty much admit to everything on stream
getting him to admit to stuff right now
Fun
Yeah its funny the dude is a moron and just admitting to everything
@stoic sand you if i add you real quick? I do wanna join and block the asshole
xD
that cool. Trash_Mouse__
So what you'll wanna do is clip stuff though and put it through an editor to kind of get it somewhat organized
I think #moderation-reports says to upload it to an unlisted youtube vidoe and send it to them
sounds good. thank you. he left the world and is gunna invite me to another to tell me more of what he does
Oh, i know this dude, looks liek he's had a nameswap lol
Why is a modded client a bad thing?
besides it being against TOS people use it to do maliciosu things
What if the modded client did nothing but improve graphics?
There's still no way really to guarantee that's all it does, or will do
That's true, but the opposite is also true
Yeah so that's why it's all against TOS
Some peopleare dicks, others aren't.
Doesn't matter, you weren't supposed to do it in the first place
There's no "Well "good" modded clients are ok!" clause. Modified clients can lead to bans, period.
@vocal shard Technically doesnt matter because it violates the ToS, realistically it is doubtful anyone would really care if ya dont bother others with it
^
@rigid crescent peak time is always around 05:30 utc
no matter the day?
👁️
no matter the day
Ah so I was right, night time American time
not that it means its mainly americans
got him admitting to being a part of laughing coffin, as the person that crashed me cause he missed when he aimed for my buddy, and that he was lifting avatars off people. gunna be highlighting it later and uploading to youtube as private to share here. thank you for your help @rigid crescent
well during the weekdays, the peak is shifted to 06:00 utc a little
yeah i've got the guy's actual account name as well and blocked him. ive definitely seen it around so i'll be sure to keep an eye out in F+ lobbies
Midnight my time
what do yall do in vr chat?
and there is usually a second peak as high as the primary peak during the weekdays which is at 16:00 utc
chill with the boiz and drink
Alright I'm gunna get back to my thing. sorry for mentioning my stream as I'm sure that was against the rules of the server. Have a great rest of your night everyone
also heya fusl lol
hiya
I got a fresh handle of Rum ready for the weekend~
are there any enclave power armor avatars that are public? (anything that looks like my pfp)

Hi
hello
Will vrchat ever have a appear offline mode?
I hope
doesnt that destroy the point of VR chat?
i mean, sometimes you just wanna avoid people yaknow?
true
John
heh, apparently many people got vr this year again and are trying it on vrchat like last year, online user stats look pretty fun in the last 3 days
Did anyone else notice that the pug now has an actual outside back room area? it's really comfy. I hope it ends up with a full on out door area at some point
is anyone else having problems accessing worlds right now?
i was^ but i reset my VR
@vast tulip Yeah I noticed that too. Kitchen is still closed tho :(
@snow wadi Good morning ^-^
Sometimes the world preview image is a question mark, kinda weird
yeah they are taking a very long time to load sometimes
It was over 13k about 2 hours ago
nice
ikr
thats super cool
Hey how do i report someone in vr chat?
by following the instructions at #moderation-reports
K
sure would be nice if I coulod join worlds my friend s were in without getting booted to a random public instance
is it full?
no it's not ufll, it loads up, I hear everyone for a split second, then get booted to another copy of the instance
it's just the vrchat servers being shit as usual
I can't even load worlds, so that's farther than me
I'm just sitting at 100% on any world I join
Just beat this guy in chess
On a sever and now I’m gonna only get 5 hours of sleep
Worth it
:D
Question for anyone with the Index. If I keep my head still for like, 10-15 seconds, my headset goes to sleep. Is there a setting somewhere for me to change this?
This question is meant to be mostly for quest, but can concern all VR headset's and headset users. What is the longest you can actually go using a VR headset? and how much should I be worried about VR Headsets overheating?
I remember hearing a story about the guy on youtube who lived in VR for a week. But one notable thing is that he switched between two different headsets back and forth. My Oculus Quest has a battery life of 2-3 hours, but of course I can set that thing on a charger and keep charging it indefinitely.
That however does not stop the headset from getting hot, and sometimes charging can make the headset even hotter (If it is to hot it just won't charge though for user safety). I don't actually mind the heat that much from a comfort standpoint, but I do worry about the safety of my headset. So how hot is too hot and can you foreseeably get your headset so hot from overuse that it becomes damaged? How long does it take to get to that point?
Please ping me if you have an answer (otherwise I may miss it)
TL;DR Can I live in VRChat or will my headset eventually burn up if I keep it on 24/7? If it can overheat, how long would you expect it to take?
^ answered in dm
my vr set doesn't get hot when I have it on for 8 hours
With quest you have "mobile phone" attached to your head on top of screen, so it has to be way hotter than normal hmd
mine gets a bit warm but no signs of overheating
or maybe thats because I sweat in it after playing bsaber too long
Which one?
Geez
@indigo wing Okay so, delete the screenshots again because just no
and use #moderation-reports to report that world
Because that's straight up against the ToS right there and if you report the world and world author via a proper Report ticket, it will get taken down
Wait so... wait
It's not a world, it's your avatar
It's like just a different version of Team50G thing
Nah people get forced into it somehow
Regardless, report the world, report the world author, #moderation-reports tells ya how, get in contact with support if you struggle getting out of it
@brisk shadow There's an option in SteamVR settings for sleep times for the the headset and controllers.
@vagrant saffron Most headsets can run forever, e.g. the Index, Vive, etc. I know the Index controllers can be charged while you're using them and they charge quite quickly too so you could disconnect them after they've charged and get another 7 hours out of them. I've found the Quest often discharges faster than it charges, so be aware it may not be possible to run it indefinitely.
idk if trust gxt cables can run forever though
my cat stepped on the end and it broke
like bruh A CAT AGAINST METAL (or somthn like that)
no
unless custom bindings maybe
but i'm no expert
I feel like if they did then a lot of people would have/be talking about them
I mean technically Steam should be able to rebind them to work however. They just aren't likely any good, e.g the Powerglove, lol
I found some worthy VR Free by Sensoryx and already tested them, but at the moment no one can give me an answer, in which games they will work 
The gloves?
Pretty sure no popular game supports them so far
You will have to map things witin steamVR from a quick google
Yes check them, of course they have trouble with the size, they are somehow not standard, trying on L and M, some fingers are too long, others are narrow 
Well pretty sre for a game like VRC they wont show up moving anyway.

Lets wait for the transition of VRC to the new version of Unity, and there we will see further, technologies do not stand still.
Strange question. My friends and I have all received a friend request from someone we've never even met. Has anyone else gotten random friend requests on VRC from a player named "LittleGirl UwU"?
yeah i got one, and declined it
which i hope didnt do anything weird like the stories ive heard but oh well
Yes i have him(her) in my friend list
@inner blade Got that one too. Asovrix as well
but not see activity from his(her) side
Visitor rank and just a very questionable name choice.
Probs just stalking Discord and adding randoms
Yeah, that plus the fact my friends and I have all gotten the request in the past 24 hours is what made me come here to ask.
I got it like half an hour ago
Neither of my friends that got it are on the VRC discord @covert blade
Hm. Oh well. I was just curious. Good to know we're not just being stalked. LOL Thanks, guys.
Wow, so multiple people not connected to VRChat Discord also got it.
I accept almost everyone, but every week i make Clean up who is not logged in more than week 

You can search for anyone ingame, what's the point of looking in discord lol
search for something random and add everyone who comes up to get your friend count up
I got a request from them yesterday to
This might be a dumb question but what could they do if someone accepts? I could understand the fear that they might join with a crasher avatar but are they able to do anything else?
Hmm... need to add event...
@red saddle They're likley just trying to boost rank.
uh did anyone else get friended by Littlegirl uwu??
Yup.
Read above
hmm
Ok, so no friending yet 🙂 got it. 🤣
yeah just did
Am I just so unpopular that I haven't got one
@snow token You aren't, I haven't got one either. Course, maybe because I'm new.... if you like I'll friend ya.
Need to find out how to add an event 😉
Be well established, proof it'll be a properly planned event, etc.
So basically just adding an event that people can search for is enough... Drat. Was hoping to host a movie night 😉 LEGAL movie night hehe
You will need to join the event server for that
And the staff there can help you further.
Oh ok, makes sense. 😉
Aw man you guys are too nice 
ya
Although I just noticed that invite link appears to be leading to a non-public channel on that server?
Mhmm, VrChat has a great community.
Altspace is ok, but problem there is no video outside of mixer
Hello can you help me ?
How old are those screenshots?
Of course the music thing is when I'm at work
Who is littlegirl and why is it such a big thing
also why is vrchat classified as horror at the steam page
A lot of people who never met that person got a friend request from them.
Also VRChat website is loading very slowly for me.
okay
@velvet charm Are you using a special client? The name tags don't look like that anymore....
Also you can't see other people's friend count on the website.
@velvet charm Right, but how/why are you seeing old school name plates if you took the picture 15 minutes ago?
@snow token Obviously, it's friend farming.
8k friends though, Jeez
Not really friends at that point, just... a collection of names.
Just opening such a massive friends list must be taxing on servers.
8k might be like 20% of whole active playerbase?
Okay, Guys, Do you Know Who is Littlegirl?
Heya.
I just want to know why would someone do that?
To make fun out of Trust system? 8k friends and still Visitor?
I don't think it's making fun of the trust system, if anything, it shows that trying to game it by adding thousands of people as friends alone doesn't work.

That or that's you and as well as injecting the code to change the nameplate style, you're changing that user's plate colour too...
How can you fix this issue:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1950268342
???
PLEASE HELP
try pressing Control + \ at the same time. That should give you the default robot avatar
I think thats because the \ is a combo of buttons on qwertz keyboards...
Maybe its ctrl + the button where \ is on qwerty keyboards?
Switch your windows to US layout and then do CTRL #
Maybe, are there some starting options for this?
or just press win+space to open the keyboard layout menu
Ok, I have to install the language at first
I'm new to VRChat but have used Unity before, how can I put video screens on wall? I can't seem to find the right documentations.
find a prefab
@ruby needle thank you very much, you saved my Day! 😗
Do I need to make a hub first?
judging by how many i can find in worlds and how they all look the same i think its a public one
I've seen someone who put video screens on a wall and removed it
anyone get a friend request from "Littlegirl uwu" its happened to all my friends and none of us know them.
yeah me aswell
some bot maybe
uh I have a question
what is it about?, if its models ect go ask around in development
if its an issue with vrchat or some kind of encounter ask away
It's with the website I logged on and it just shoots me back out. uh I don't know what's wrong lol
Try anyother browser
oh ok
Heya people
hi
yeah decline friend requests from aihitoru and littlegirl uwu
"aihitoru" - Yeah, that's another one I just got.
Their API tags are also weird.
Today I received an invitation from this LittleGirl UwU, it was suspicious to me. Do you know what he can do?
Just ignore/decline it.
Someone being inconsiderate in VRC. Just adding everyone because they can.
I blocked this person and told other friends
@potent turtle No name calling for things like that (ofc that includes linking to other stuff that has them in int)
The person's affected shall do a moderation report, not blame people here.
I think they literally just added everyone
Of course.
A script doesn't know to skip people if it's only 10 lines long.
Just add everyone.
Probably intentional
It was. They were trying to act proud about it earlier in the chat.
they spoke here?
lol, life goals
Lol Yeah. Don't give them more attention.
They already got a lot of attention sadly.
Keyword more. xD
what is happening in vrc?
boring hackers/crashers messing up the game
i start to feel it 2h ago
just server issues, stay calm, get something to drink, wait for the sysadmins to fix it
Now, wherever you go, there will be new players with white names, and hackers who randomly apply for friends.
ah is this why it's hard to switch avatars right now?
yup
Yes
They think its funny to crash
Watch out for new toy players with white names, they're likely to steal your avatar
some people just need hobbies, badly
That's... the same thing, surely?
vrc need a shit ton of backup servers and anti ddos scripts ...not just cloudflare
vrchat is being broken again
Uhh just wanna report vrchat users:
HENTAIGOD
Wishairpods
For threatening to ddos attack players if they're blocked by users.
#moderation-reports @sharp dragon

"not just cloudflare". no, cloudflare would probably help a lot here but is expensive
Well... for me VRChat website is also completely down. It's not loading at all.
so we getting nae nae'd out here?
vrc uses cloudflare ...they forked a while ago blocking 90% of players of all online services through vrchat
hackers could do more important things, like hacking scamming websites, but no, they don't even know why they do this s*** here, boredom 101%
did xX_broken hearts_Xx get banned for ERP'ing in a public and went to take his rage on the server?
what schmuck e-boy is up to no good today
@feral badge
are you self-proclaimed with that answer or are you unconscious
I see, nvm

how long will it talk for vrc to get fixed?
as long as it will take them, theres no eta
uhhh depending on how long it takes the mods to see it + time it takes will be a while
No one knows. Might take a couple of minutes or even hours.
pls go check through this guys msg history
Dude needs to chill ngl
poof
👌
LOL
ty
So I need help regarding the invite system in game.
broken since alpha
invites are 9/10 times not received or send (Known lowest prio issue)
They never show up.
especially now with the servers f'd
This has been going on for me for a few weeks.
Though I think it has mainly only been regarding one person in my friends list.
I've not had issues sending or receiving invites lately
Anyone else laggy and avatars not loading ?
yep
yea..servers are f'd up ...try again in 30-900 minuted
ive crashed multiple times earlier
whenever the 2 devs monitoring wake up
i was gonna ask people i my gam4 about it tho but i just crashed again
its pretty annoying
empty the vrc cache and restart the game (crashes are mostly due to corrupt chunks in there)
vr cache?
!cleancache
You can clean cache by deleting everything within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat apart from output_log.txt and config.json if you have them
Thanks bot
Is there any event planned for 31st December?
I think it's mostly user planned events
im still a little confused about cleaning the cache-
..
copypasta from #vrchat-general-1
oh look, "Photon server status OK" :3
so everything should be working again
well that was quick lol
so should i try getting into a game now?
im just posting what i seen on twitter
You shouldn't
innocent or not doesnt matter.
all my friends recived their f request and they did not meet
🐢
calling out names (especially without even the slightest prove) has a insanely high abuse potential.
sending names can leed to bad shit if continued
or fauls acusing just don do it
Sure it's most likely true, but thats not the point.
Send a moderatin report and get it handled by those who're supposed to handle it and those who can check/validate prove.
^
I might aswell say this cutie @jade glade just crashed me.
to much work + i never got resond from them anyway
Understand the issue? 
WOW XD
You indeed do not get a respond on the final outcome of a moderation report
if you don't have video or screenshot proof of whatever someone did, don't even bother sending a report.

i disagree, if a ton of different kown people report the same person it'll also lead to a investigation @pseudo bobcat
yes
multipule people reporting the same problem technicly is proof
How do I report someone who can hide his nick in vrc?
u mean like nameplate is hidden ?
There are shaders that can hide nametags (if you mean that the nameplate is invisible)
or name is blank
oh they use some special keys that are invisible
ye
Just go into the logs, get those character keys person is using together with his user id. that's it
Oh thanks I'll check
if your just gunna report someone for having a blank name idk if thats work a mods time looking over
if there was summin else they were doing the ye do it
bots sending just decline them
bots???? wth
yuck
sending friend requests thats it
just send a report in and thats that
fire? want marshmallows with that?
Is vrchat working now? Was kinda broke for sometime for me
it's still hit or miss
it's not gonna fix itself with this lack of protection
btw when someone floods your screen with inappropriate nudity stuff how do you find out who does that? cause by the time the screen flooding is over the person is probably gone or something so I can see reporting is going to be tricky
always at the mercy of these people
this is why i have custom animations disabled now
when im in public i have particels and animations off
same
idk a way to find them spesificly
unless you block all avatars and un block them 1 by one
Ik it's probably kind of dumb for me to do but I dont have certain ranks/parts of an avatar disabled... I guess a part of me likes to give some people a chance and if they do something I disagree then I can disable the avatar manually
it's only once that sort of screen flooding happened to me and I had to look away from the screen the entire time =.=
the sad reality is there's more bad than good if you have everything on
eh it depends
I didnt say it was a joke
"trusted" btw 👀
hmmm how they survived this long is beyond anyone
yea idk how they are still trusted after walking around with crash guns
I had to deal with a toxic individual on a Discord server that somehow survived for a few months before finally pulling the last straw
Decline request, block user, continue with life 🙂
yea it's just weird seeing 5 friend requests in your inbox lol
I dont usually add random people on friends list, bots or just a random person in the room
yea i never accept random friend requests
cause you never know they could stalk you through public instances and annoy the heck out of you
i get loads
i have like 10 fr just sitting there bacouse of my world
it's the annoying thing I've dealt with on Roblox is random friends requests...
I used to accept every friend request, finally learned to start filtering them more 
there is one friend who me and someone else calls our "rival" (friendly rival) and everytime we accept an invite from him we usually stumble in to something chaotic
he RP'ed as Eggman at one time and shenanigans happened with him xD
Lol
he tried to slap me in the face
and it's annoying because my avatar isnt equipped with weapons to get back at him D:
not even a bazooka
~<
Im just a defenseless smol bean that can only flee by running or flying

Im designing potential attacks/weapons my avatar could "use" whenever negotiation isnt working with the threat though ^^
wonder if it's still possible I can make her use one of the weapons (which is a spear made of light) despite being a keyboard user
I do plan to see if I can infest in VR near the end of next year or something
I havent mentioned it to my parents because I want this to be a challenge with doing research and trying to invest in to it myself and they have already done much for me, especially my dad
It was dead? I was on well into the night and it was fine
I haven't been on in about 6 hours tho
servers hit the flo' and died
well not die
but barley function'ed
models not loading in, it bein' choppy ect
It's an attack against proton servers or something
Oh when
something is definitely wrong today. and strangely 2 people have been going around adding ALOT of users around the time vrchat started to mess up. idk if it's coincidence but it's strange
must be
maybe they saw that "little girl uwu" wouldnt cut it so they changed to something resembling an actual name
started with A
I didn't get a add request
This is so sad
little girl uwu and aihitoru
They must've had a generated list or just added everyone on the game because they hit Japanese users too
May even be incremental IDs they're going through
ow shit, i didnt realize but i got it too lmao
User IDs are huge, can't just hit them randomly
Sure you can
They might have extracted user data from every instance somehow, and used that to send friend-requests
It's something like a 32-character hash, At best you will have a 1 in 4294967296 chance if the seeds are limited
accepted littlegirl anyways
uh oh
damn youre brace
they could have extracted room owner names of existing instances
i dont think names show up otherwise
@tacit plank Send out 10,000 requests a second, suddenly it's not too hard.
it's easy but the api should ban it
It's 32 characters from 0 to F, dude
steam ip spoof & vpn there ya go
Vrchat ate a die
There's 3.4*10^34 different combinations. If you send a million requests a second for a million years, and VRC has a million users, then you will still have less than 1 in 10 billonth of a chance to generate a correct ID
*10^38
Yeah hit the wrong key
Also got both requests to my both accounts, probably the best solution for devs is making friend request limit per day/week/month/etc
I think the math is right though, at least it's something like that
Got the request on an offline account? If so they probably harvested every user ID
nope
2^122 to be precise since its uuidv4
A version 4 UUID is randomly generated. As in other UUIDs, 4 bits are used to indicate version 4, and 2 or 3 bits to indicate the variant (102 or 1102 for variants 1 and 2 respectively). Thus, for variant 1 (that is, most UUIDs) a random version-4 UUID will have 6 predetermined variant and version bits, leaving 122 bits for the randomly generated part, for a total of 2122, or 5.3×1036 (5.3 undecillion) possible version-4 variant-1 UUIDs. There are half as many possible version-4 variant-2 UUIDs (legacy GUIDs) because there is one less random bit available, 3 bits being consumed for the variant.
there are ways to harvest user ids through the api though but im not gonna go into the details of that
Not really much, there are many limits in api
there has been those things before but it's quite useless and people who used it got banned within seconds because of the amount of requests
!online
There are 9531 users in VRChat currently
Hey guys
Ah I miss this game
anyone willing to play with me?
I would if I was at my computer
Yo, is anyone else getting random ass friend requests? I havent even been online today, lmao.
Yeah, ive got 3 friend requests from people I haven't even met.
Probably, yeah
How about both
Most likely
I wont be available for another hour or two, but you can add me on discord if you want some cuddles or something
okii
pls help, im getting big tilt
Hi friends. How goes it?
we can always play vr nao if this will help
!online
There are 9668 users in VRChat currently
i'm currently seeking for ppl to play vr with
Im always down. Need a +1?
okii!
Let me set my stuff up real quick.
oki
@vocal shard my game crashes in like
call me when u done
10 minutes
Oh thats bad
You want me to call?
yes alu
Kk
@ripe bough
Almost done :)
ok
ok so i seem to be fine, has the error sub-sided?
Anybody getting random friend request from people?
yes. ignore and block em
Yes
It's not after New Decade...
They probably are, but we won’t know unless they talk about it
did any of you get a new request from a two letter name with p and f?
i don't want to just say it incase it's unrelated to this
over 10 people i know are also getting it
yeah, it's another one
Yes
and not at the same time, theyre not bots
i've been getting a lot of benign rando requests lately due to an avatar but i think everything today is just danger zone
could be someone that wants to rank up or just someone who wanna cause panic
I haven't even logged into the game, I have just gotten 3 random friend requests so far today via the website that I've declined.
it'll probably keep happening today, the first two showed you can do it now other dbags probably wanna get in on that shit
i mean its just random friending on the vrchat website, if they dont have a malicious goal then i honestly dont care what they do
nvm
always check if the user is in the same instance if not ...block
Now i have done every single thing that i can find that people have said solves the problem im having, if it still persists im gonna kms
Getting a request from PHOTON-FREE too, so I think yeah
nothing, they just think its fun
and how many people can they possible ddos, it would cost a lot, a lot of money
Well I mean, that's just text he wrote, it could say "They're clowns from another dimension"
Can think of a few things, but it’s mainly for fun though
it's not about gaining anything
eh
i friended them for a bit and didn't get ddosed, so they probably have a list going down one by one on ddos
It doesnt do anything negative for you in the end and it costs them
they are more the type wich do things just because they can
but
that would probably be a few hundred or even thousand juicers, if the ddosing is gonna be somewhat disruptive
for that many people i mean
idk, they probably had it thought out before they did this
probably
smh
it often starts with "hey, i found XXXX" and the train begins to roll
ik google has a server running website that gives you like $300 trial, they're probably using that
fuck i hate windows, its taking so long to update
either way, if you friend them while getting on vrc just have a vpn
and they dont let you update wmr separately
i just witnessed a dude put on an avatar of mine while in full body tracking and it was horrific
ok
Don't you love when you get in vrc and ¾ of your friendlist is in private?
always
It's kinda sad to see :(
Also people if you're getting requests from photon-free littlegirl uwu or aihitoru please decline them
request off them then?
Imagine being able to play vrchat without the game crashing after 10 minutes
@rigid crescent I don't want to be a bother
btw i acept them both but manage delete them of
...how is that being a bother
@rigid crescent I always think I'm a bother lmao don't worry
@languid beacon yup, decline
Just being realistic, accepting a friend request doesn't put your account in danger. Still, the accounts are being sketchy by mass friend request spam, so best to keep your distance.
oki wont acept anyone i dont know i should know beter
@languid beacon if you accidentally join a world with them in, it can become possible. Not having them as a friend is just another security stuff
I doubt they can do anything besides crash you, but yes, no reason to accept them.
I have no idea how to say that in English lmao please understand what I mean
@languid beacon oke
Anyway this is a great time to talk about 2factor. How often does it require you authenticate? I only worry about it slowing down my jump-into-VR process







Hmm maybe someone knows, VRChat support any VR Gloves?
