Not our fault if you dont inform yourself before you buy something to be honest
i didn't buy the computer
O?
I didn't think you did tbh
everyone who helped buy it did
i didn't even know that it was an office laptop
this is just great
You can try reducing the graphic settings
Hold shift while starting the game to do that
i can't even get in the game because i don't give enough time to get in because it's so slow
i tried that
Damn
nothing happens
it just asks if i want to play in vr mode or in desktop mode
nothing else
even if i hold shift the whole time
After you selected that
yeah
finally i uploaded my avatar!
i select "Launch in Desktop Mode"
You select desktop mode and then hold shift
Afterwards
nothing else asked
Just hold shift after you select that option
And wait until a graphics setting window opens
ok
'll go see if it works
i'll be back later
bye
it's still slow
nothing has popped up either
nothing has popped up
i held shift THE WHOLE TIME
@molten gale nothing showed up and i had shift held the whole time while launching
it's been like 5 minutes and nothing has showed up
10*
Hmmm
ctrl?
it's definitely shift
i'm already in the tutorial, i think it's too late
i geuss i'll deal with laggy/slow gameplay
i mean i just did it with CTRL so
Yep
both work for me
but i doubt itll help much on a laptop like that
worth a try i guess
was it about a graphics setting?
yes
ok
don't expect it to magically make your computer good though
i'll google it and see if anything will help
block very poor avatars and don't show dynamic bones.
i- i'm not even in the game, how will that help me
nothing helped on google
well, i geuss i'll go try ctrl
brb, i'll see if it works
i can't turn it off
Seeing as it's a 200 dollar laptop i really don't see it helping at all
yep
daaang
hm
dual core processor (4 threads) 1,7ghz base with 2,7ghz boost.
i can't turn it off
oh there were different tiers
honestly i wouldnt worry about turning it off, it probably wouldnt help
i don't understand what that stuff is
ok
i'm gonna restart my pc
brb
wait, i'm gonna try again
gotta be honest, nothing is gonna help besides having a better PC
i don't have the money for it tho...
we concluded that a few times now, so i'd be great if you can move on
nothing is gonna change that and you will have to deal with that
Thanks 
i geuss this is why i started youtube
not for the other things i said i started it for
i mean... one thing was true
only that one part
wdym
my email?

did you send it to MY EMAIL
how did u find it?
who told you it?
where did u find it
why mine
nothing showed up
Is this the famous a one person role play as 2 persons act?
If you don’t know how to make a gmail you’re too young to play this game
yeahhh lmao
exactly
and how'd you even get discord without an email
how did u get here if you don't have one
how did u get on discord without an email
did you use mine for that too?
Nice roleplay
when did delta say they were using your email i-
we really got people in this game that don't know how to make an email address
Totally legit
how did you get discord without one
it really be 2020 tho
kinda sus
you don't want to play VRChat trust me
the only way you access the internet, just killed by a little button...
your power level is far too low
who would win, any service that needs an email vs guest account
criiinge
any service that needs email
obviously
having an email makes you OP everywhere
The plot t h i c c ens
lol
understandable
i dont have any games on it, so nah
Ive never been so confused by a convo here
cringe
i feel like i'm having a stroke reading through it lmao
Ikr
Sounds about right 👍
Maybe a youtube link on how to make an email can help
lol
Still confused on how they got a discord account??
Tldr
@teal bison This Discord, and especiallythis Channel is VRChat related.
definitely troll
Please keep it on Topic
Looks like it is employing the power of coffee pasta

And its gone , off to find an email on that VRChat horizon
Lmao
mmMM someone probably used a hack that changed my avatar and im pissed
i could change it back tho so im good now lol
how come the author didn't port the old vrchat hub to quest
Oh I'm new to vrchat, just got it last night (ik I'm kinda late to the game). Any overall advice or tips would be great lol
i can't play it very well
Stay away from the void club @cosmic shore
Tryna save up for a headset for it and some other games too
And the box
i can't play it
dont ask just trust me
i can, it's just really slow
please
Thanks for the heads up lmaooo
i just got off the game cause i got scared of something but yeet
what did u get scared of
@cosmic shore honestly just be yourself and talk to people, it’s a social game to make friends with
No tips really needed
someone called "THE NARRATOR" talking in a Herbert The Pervert voice?
i got on the avatar testing world, got my avatar "hacked" and it had an animation that nearly made me fall off my chair
with a Herbert The pervert avatar
Specific
and looouuud fuckin music
do you have a vrchat account, as in an actual one and not a steam or oculus account
if so, go to the website, there is a button that will change your avatar back to the default one
if not, clear your cache and spam CTRL+\ while loading into the game to force switch to the default avatar
oh no dw i actually could change it in game, but thanks for that!
you cant play it on PC at all? like desktop mode wont even run? because vrchat is not and will never come to PS4
ah thats good!
i can
i wish i had time to report the avatar but my gamer fight or flight mode was activated so lmao
Solar how long will that 3 letter name trend persist
i'm just rocking on a dell latitude e5540
Dell
yes
@molten gale whats the 3 letter name trend about
That explains everything tbh
No.
No.
i don't know how to do tht at all
u h-
My options would be "Pin" and "Sin" for the 3 letter trend
k
And tbh those are both terrible
ha
lmao
@desert stratus you know lin is the name of the girl in spirited away
cool
the one that helped the protagonist
i just like the name
don't spoil it
i loved that movie
i love that movie too
Its 3 am frick
go to sleep!
go slep!!
i'm a huge night owl and my sleep schedule is nonexistent
staying up isn't healthy for you
Yesterday I slept less than an hour!
oh oof
hi gang!
wassup!
just playing some eve right now. gonna get back into vrchat this weekend 🙂
need to hook up my darn vr stuff >.<
hook it up. :) now is better than later.
gah i want to but i have so much things to do right now
How do I load into a created world. Any time I try to it just takes me to the main VR where you can then access the VRchat hub
make sure its fully uploaded correctly onto your account
bored
omg i got in the game
i'm still slow so i'm having trouble turning down the graphics
ok bye, i'm gonna go play the rest of the game now
u< nice

hewo
yep
oh no
shh
endless loop after logging anyone else?
not yet
some people are saying there's a client that can somehow literally delete your entire ass VRC account now? literally how would that even be possible?? shit like that should be server side and encrypted??
Thats not possible
i.e. no one should be physically able to affect someone else's account on the server using a client?
Please dont talk about things that are obviously impossible because if you do then 100 more little children qre going to come in here asking the same question
I mean, tbh, I would have thought force changing someone's avatar was impossible, too, but, well.
It's possible VRC's security is somehow just that bad I guess lol
AFAIK clients can only kick you, crash you in many ways, fake a ban, or grab your ip. Anyone who claims they can do more maliciously is bluffing or trying to scam you unless it consistently happens
Figured I'd just poke in here to make sure.
were all waiting on 2018 to fix that
They can also switch your avatar
Falls under "many ways"
🤔
I think most clients at this point only switch avatars for crashing purposes
oh neat, a "funny" vrchat video by some youtuber 💤
And posting it in the wrong channel
VRChat slow for anyone else?
VRChat is not loading anything at all, can't get into any other worlds, friends take forever to load their profiles, extremely slow startup screen
Alright
When i play VRChat on my Pc, All the textures are messed up
Did you update your graphics card drivers?
Servers are slow it seems
Who wants to watch a movie
@proud marsh What GPU?
plop
For anyone interested; As of Virtual Desktop's recent updates, streaming PCVR to the Quest with it now has virtually imperceivable controller latency (it was pretty obvious before) so in VRChat it basically feels completely native. Compression artifacting is still sometimes visible but that's about the only caveat.
Does anyone have any experience with these vive tracker straps?- https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tracker-Wristband-Tracking-Trackers-Capture/dp/B07PB7JKS3/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Tracker+Belt+%2B+2+Wristband+Straps+%2B+2+Palm+Straps+Full+Body+Tracking+VR+Bundle+for+HTC+Vive+Trackers+Motion+Capture&qid=1583235681&s=videogames&sr=1-1
@keen trench yeah I have them
they are nice but the Velcro on one of the leg straps started giving off a bit. its still more than usable and doesnt limit me at all though
I have been using them like every day since november
can you just sew the velcro back on ?
its not falling off. its just not as sticky anymore
oh hmm that sucks
there is some general wear and tear from the usage on teh pads where the trackers go but as long as you dont take the trackers off the starps offten that wont be a problem either
Oh hmmm
honestly I bought them from 20€ on aliexpress and they work amazingly for that price
thats way more than what I paid for these and they work perfectly fine
well the trackstraps are like 60€ here which is insane
So these seemed like a good alternative
Yeah i think that is very pricy for god dam strap ahaha
yeah its just a velcro with a screw
ahaha
they should be like 10 bucks to be honest lol
Yeah true ahaha
You haven't had the thread break on you right?
Heard some horror stories about cheap trackers
not at all
they never fell off even if I smacked them against the wall
(I kicked a wall like the idiot I am)
blade and sorcery is too immersive
Ah ok great
Well replacing the velcro is very cheap and easy anyways
ngl I was kinda scared that I made the wrong choice of straps ahaha
ehh I used corcks and my belt before I had the same experience really
but thats just me I am cheapskate
Well i'm not a cheapskate but I think 85 pounds for straps with velcro is a giant scam
well its an undersaturated market
True!
they should only be 35 now
I agree
the pricing went down some time ago for the rebuff reality ones
What were they priced at?
I mean they are charging overkill and people are buying it because theres no other option so they can get away with it
True
Well i still paid a premium for mine but what ever
I mean so long as there somewhat comfy and last idm
doesnt really matter how much you pay if they last long
True
I mean bought these hoping they would be decent
Should have asked the community before i purchased them tho ahaha
Does anyone know what this world is called. A world with horror Disney. I need this name. That was my favorite world
Pls
probably Fever Dream
Ok thx
Hi, roma
Hey
is anyone having the same issue as me where it takes forever to upload an avatar?
I heard there were issues with the servers last night. We couldn’t upload any avatars for a while because of that.
I've Been hearing things about VRChat to update the unity ver, make dynamic bones global/peer-to-peer and etc etc for 2020. Well, I don't believe that will happen any time soon, and if it does it is probably in the distant future.
Take all rumours with a large grain of salt.
VRC usually releases only one or two big updates a year max.
Pretty sure we already have dynamic bones lmao
Maybe Ned was talking about global dynamic bone colliders? Lots of people have been asking for that but I doubt this sorta thing will get added any time soon.
that would be nice thou
Probably but the devs have already said they don't want to add it due to optimization even with an option to disable/enable
@lucid socket they produced a road map of things they want to make
A dbone replacement was on that
Yeah if anything it's a topic to wait for if/when we are using a seperate system
you can only take vr so far...laptop lagged like hell when i first got on i had to turn the settings down..i dont lag at all now
i m w a i t i n g
Also just because it's on the roadmap doesn't mean they will do it
As the group that it's part of had loads of things under it
Well unity update is probably going to happen in 2nd quarter but can't say since we're waiting on unity rn not vrc
I jus wish I had better patience lol, like I don't mind but at the same time I'm like -blank expression-
I've just done other things, not too hyped about the 2018 update as it doesn't address my biggest issues
@lucid socket Why do you think you'd be privy to rumours about features that other people much closer to the team or development wouldn't be?
But given how much in VRC is just direct Unity stuff, I'd be surprised if they made their own dynamic bones replacement (and could competently make it more performant than the current implementation).
current implementation is from like 2017
or 2015 even
with new unity systems could be done
I have 216 hours and I've been stuck at orange for like 200 hours
how df do I get to purple
did you upload any avatars or worlds? If not and you plan on not uploading anything then prepare to play for 1000 or more hours
bruh I'm to lazy for all that
Just make a new scene, slap in a plane and the VRCWorld prefab, upload, done 👍
And that lack of motivation is precisely why you're not purple.
Hey uhh whenever I try to play VRchat in VR mode it doesn’t respond. Like it’s just a black screen and then wont respond. But desktop mode works fine. Idk what to do, I’ve reinstalled the game and restarted my computer several times.
@plain citrus does ur pc play other vr games in vr?
You’re orange at 200 hours wha
Orange at 200 with no uploads is normal imo
Really?? I’m still green at over 200 hours and a few avatar uploads
I guess that’s why my friends told me I should be orange anytime now
I was purple at 280
theres no set req so it varies a whole lot since people play different
Many of my friends need around 1k to reach trusted
Wat the hecc
I didn't think that rank was actually assigned anymore?
shows up in the api
I don't remember when the trust system came out, but I think I had around the same amount of hours as Paci at the time and had trusted.
so I do think time is not something to be concerned about if you want to rank up.
Active time is probably an exponent (or at least has minimum gates) rather than not being involved at all.
it's involved for sure
I got to new user in one play session with one friend and idling in void club
on an alt acc
No reason for it to not be involved honestly, it's the easiest thing to track. They just say idling doesn't work to discourage people from doing it
And because it's probably not that effective
Yeah also got new user in less than 10 hours
Idling likely is tracked, in that it doesn't count which is why people on desktop rank slower, because they're "idle" a lot more, where as in VR, you're always moving, even when you aren't.
Brahms
For some odd reason on VRC some people were removed and I did not Unfriend them at all whatsoever x_x
But did they unfriend you? :P
Might have been an API hiccup.
one time i had a friend joined me and i see them orange and they said they have me on friendslist when i didn't for them
^See? I told you x.x
but that was like last year
Im not sure what is going on with VRC honestly, but this is sort of becoming an issue
maybe its a small bug, you can fix it by telling them to unfriend and re-add you
It happened to me two times earlier
both do it actually
:x
🙊
Hey there 
If you want so speak French and take a look into the -> #french Channel
Please stick to English in other places of this Discord 
vous parlez français*
cease
Hey has the word been spreading about NVidia adding VRSS support for VRchat as of the driver released on Febuary 27th? Game-Ready 442.50
no
VR-SS means super sampling for your focal point instead of the entire display. This allows for better resolution with less impact to frame rates and it should be a pretty big deal for VRchat performance for anyone using an NVidia card. As an example VRSS nearly doubles the framerate of a PC with 4x VRSS vs what 4xss was for the entire scene.
Well I guess it won't help frame rates for anyone not currently using super sampling at all, but it might let those people add some SS without hurting their existing frame rate. 2x super sampling makes VRC look great even on the OG Vive and Rift
Or maybe they unfriended you and didn't want to admit it. "Oh hey, that's weird, you're not my friend anymore..." "Oh really? Wow, I wonder how that happened, heh, darned VR Chat..." "Oh no worries, let me just readd you!" "... yaaaay...." lol
Is anyone else having issues with avatars in VRC rn?
My favourited avatars are not showing, I only see the public default ones, recommended avatar worlds and that..
While I'm positive that vrc removes people at random rarely, I have used it as a cover up to remove people.
@stoic adder seems fine to me
How do they measure “idling”? Do you have to actively hop worlds or some?
any action other than just standing still
in a way you could say that its harder for desktop users to gain ranks, but not impossible
if they like...you know talk or grab objects and stuff
is there a fastest way to report that my account was stolen? i sent an email to support a day ago
no sadly, everything is handle through support
can try and dm a mod though(but don't do that)
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/564963244481970201/671217259003248640/VRChat_1920x1080_2020-01-26_20-56-51.106.png I know I asked this yesterday in random in the middle of the night during a conversation about these, but since it’s day in the US, does anyone know where I can buy/get this model from? 💖 Thank you sm~
i think they are booth models? not sure
Mhm, I’ve tried looking through booth and haven’t found them yet though
how do i get a friend to see my movie aswell as me in my world?
wait for it
no i meant in unity anyone know?
oh
the settings of the video screen bugs me
ask in the specific channel and you might get more advices. I assume thats a world thing so... #world-development
ok thanks
@jagged zodiac https://booth.pm/en/items/1093504
Hey all
Look how much they ruined that cutie
What
they just made the hair pure black and gradient the tips lmao
but to be fair i never liked her original rain boots
she looks fine as she is, i don't see the issue
awhhh,, thank you so much!! the original is much cuter
oof, i wonder how people don’t feel bad redistributing stuff people worked hard on w/out permission
You right
yes, there is big difference. I sometimes see public kons which is another model that is not supposed to be public.
There was a booth model base I ended up deciding to abandon because the usage rules were too vague.
Where are you guys' main places to go for avatars or character models/assets to create your own avatars?
capitalize letters
Hmm
It’s a model site so I was just answering the question, my bad
One that is best avoided
don't worry about it
It’s the only place I know so derp
Same
I cannot log in VRCHAT
Invites system broke when you wanna restart VRCHAT just giving an error
Anyone having this issue?
Hey there 
I was inviting someone, but they can't see it
Please keep questions to one channel and dont ask it across multiple simultaniously 
Just a thing for everyone in the VRCHAT community because this is strange.
Invites dont work no one sees it but if you log out VRCHAT you cannot go back in.
That definitely sound's like some connectivity problems.
Also the fact that i got loaded twice in an instance is already strange like for example homeworld and when it was full loaded once again another load then out of no where a public instance.
!online
There are 7810 users in VRChat currently
that's not bad for being in the middle of the day/early evening in the Americas.
So I have just found out this game is social anxiety simulator
LUL
some dumbass dropped a toilet on me and it crashed me
something you only hear in vrchat
Ugh I need help. My VRchat won’t start up when I try to play in VR mode. It was doing perfectly fine yesterday but now when I open it it’s a black screen then it stops responding. I tried another VR game but it wouldn’t open either. I uninstalled and reinstalled steam but it still won’t work?? Is there something wrong with my headset? Idk what to do
vrchat does a better job at real life therapy and you can do it for free right at home
@plain citrus usually its because of some other program or apps interfering with your steamvr, Might want to re-set up your vr in the steam vr tutorial.
Ok, how do I do that? Do I start in desktop mode and switch over?
uh...no....i don't think thats how it works
Oh in the steam VR, I misread that. I’ll try it
yeah~
Quick question but does anyone know a good GPU that will run VRC but is like $200-250
or should i just go for broke and save for a RTX 2060
can anyone help me with something?
Uh so the steamVR tutorial just flashes and I can’t move or look around
Plus side of every headset over Valve Index: +You have the ability to purchase it if you want to buy one
@cursive scroll requires decent cpu and gpu. I would recommended an i5 generation or higher along with any graphics card that is 970 gtx
any rtx works well with i5 and will play vrc decently well
however, depending on avatars and worlds It won't always save you from performance. You will be pretty much the same as anyone else who has a minimum pc specs.
@stuck iron whats the need
i need people to help me make an anime episode
no money required, all on our own
i need voices, characters, and cool stuff what anime's have
is a AMD FX-6300 a good CPU? i have no idea about computers
I give up lmao I guess I just have to play desktop mode
i'm not too technical on the amd side unfortunately. but on steam Minimum requirement for cpu is: AMD FX 8350 equivalent or greater
huh the steam program said i was good with my CPU thats weird
It's like, i3 level performance
it says that on default i think
Ryzen would be your best bet
i find multiple models of Ryzen
how would i know, i have a dell latitude e5540
Mm.... Ryzen is goood....
I currently am forced to play with an i3 processor
i shall pay my respects with a formal F
big f tbh
game is still mostly gpu so I can still run VR at 90 Hz
you mainly have to look out for BG processes
Trying to decide between an upgrade build to a Ryzen 9 vs Intel I9. I think the Ryzen may run this game better then the I9 due to the extra threads and cores. What do y'all think?
I run the game pretty great with a i9
@vocal shard power is irrelevant for this game cuz you can still get crashed and lags as well as major fps drops due to avatar and world variants and some idiot players. On to the question though, it really depends on which you want.
i know a streamer and he had an i9 and still gets crashed from random people he met in public instances, specifically the great pug cuz he sings there
single thread speed would be better no?
I am currently running an i7700hq 4 cores overclocked to 3.8G and with 32 gigs of ram and a GTX 1070. With my VR headset I get like 40 fps in the pub. So I guess I am wondering the best way to get that up to 80fps.
you can't because you already have the relevant power
its the worlds and avatar that are decreasing the fps
oh ok
yeah for example if you hang and chill out in Room of the rain or mostly Quest worlds, you will see a major boost in your fps
that cool I had no idea
basically this game is just shit performance wise
idk it varies, but i notice my fps was decently high when i was in room of the rain Until a friend joins with one of their stupidly 100k+ poly avatar
but being as a friend i can't block them straight up so whatever. I just let them be and suffer the fps drop.
or can i just make something with zbrush and upload it to the game?
you need Unity and a package called vrc_sdk. I believe you will learn more about it in #avatars-2-general pins
In that situation why is the frame rate go down. Would better hardware help at all.
so, nvm
@vocal shard nope. Its the worlds or avatars like i said.
so the next time you see your frame drops, you look around carefully and check the users Poly.
ok.
if its very high for the users, then you hide their avatar which will evidently change them into a robot.
Or you can change everyone into a robot by default in the safety settings first.
Thanks for the info
you're not gonna find much help for making anime episodes in this discord sadly
ok
hi\
hi
hi
Is it hard to make friends in vrchat if you don't talk?
Honestly for the last couple days I would run past everyone to the top room in the pug then slowly try coming down to meet people but get too nervous so I go back up
Hello
@vocal shard hello
sup
Nm on Netflix what about you
Chilling on voice channels
What do you watch?
And ik someone who has anxiety like that.
She is scared of ordering food.
I used to be like that but then i discovered it was the medicine i had to take for my adhd that made me like that
I got got off of it
And i was normal
I just finished watching I am not okay with this it was pretty good had an ending I was not expecting, I have to order pizza over an app tho I think I'm getting better, it's good you found out about your medicine
Sorry I type slow
Ye
Mine wasnt that bad i could talk its that i always had a dry throat and i always walked slow.And get nervous outta no where
I still had friends
Were you born with it?
And yo do you have a job? sorry for personal questions.
I don't have adhd sorry if I gave you the impression I did, I don't even think I have anxiety problems I'm just socially awkward once I get to know someone I open up a lot, yea I'm a heavy duty mechanic
Yea I'm from a really small town so I haven't met someone with adhd irl but I do hear about it a lot
Thanks for talking with me Gn
Np.
question, i'm curious where i could advertise something to do with VR Chat? It isn't a world or an avatar or anything, basically like a group. I would explain but I don't want to turn this into an advertisement lol.
If anyone needs information to answer just DM.
request: distance based dynamic bone culling
isn't that already a thing
@slate verge most people avatars are too high poly example the e girl avatars 300k is normal to see and more materials then a ps2 game tons of bones coliders etc they by far the fps blackholes in vrc so bad that a friend with wireless adapter has to hide those e girl avatars or his at 144p VR
but polys not the worst thing actually but having 300+k on like 20 people goes to insane numbers i think vrc should increase the limit to 100k before avatars become poor or very poor
It's at 70k and that's more than enough
VRChat public has basically become: Allow all avatars = 40fps (painful in VR) or Block Very Poor = 1/2 to 3/4 of the lobby disappear.
They need to start enforcing limits in some way.
Hard limits is not the worst thing in the world
Its not gonna kill the community or the creator community. It will force out everyone who isnt giving a shit, who wont be missed
There will always be modded SDKs but the client itself can already autoblock heavy avatars
Hell, why arent there any very strict hard limits for at least public avatars?
Basically. Creators can easily pack things into sane values. 99% of offenders are grabbing crap from VRCM and just uploading it. If you ask any of these people about their terrible avatar, the response is always "I don't care". Great, thanks...
Really
At the very least if you want to preserve cool animation avatars
Just impose both sdk and client hard limits on public avatars. Dont allow people toanually show public avatars if they are over medium
Manually*
was tough to get my avatar to med Rank
but something has to be done to make people not make a avatar with ton of things on it like 400+ bones
Well, my models are ususlly atlased and under 70-80k poly, they are usually orange, but as soon as I add dynamic bones on EVEN short hair with a ponytail, it goes red 🤷
I'd say the "poor" rank is fine. It's just people overshoot into Very Poor by insane amounts these days.
the issues is when everyone is using those heavy avatars
The issue is the MATERIAL count and colliders
Models with 30-40 materials + 10Colliders + is insane
@dusk mesa the limit perhaps should be higher on bones and few other things but not high enough where everyone just has insane numbers
Yes i agree
perhaps add a new Rank upove very poor where someone exceeds the limits by 100%
call it Trash Rank
🤣
Pff thats nothing 🤣 hold up lemme search something
@dusk mesa took me 1 min to find people using those avatars
Check now 🤣 @wary hollow
@desert stratus there was a hard limit
But that went to the bin when the lab shit was done
guys can i take a own selfie with PC type without Mirror ?
???
Do you mean desktop mode?
yah !
i'm new around so can't sure gonna buy VR soon :"<
just want to take some memories with my friend here
I think there is no way to make selfies in Desktop mode without mirror.
Desktop mode has limited camera set to only panoramatic ones.
aaah ! now that clear all my confuse while i'm searching ..
@devout berry tks
There is request to be able to use other cameras using xbox controller on canny, but I think they haven't got to reviewing it yet.
What a surprise
hello
My safety settings are all avatars shown fully featured for all ranks. Except very poor is always hidden. Friends manually overridden to always show even if very poor
for mine friends have everything enabled, non friends just have voice and avatar only enabled no matter what rank (except visitor which is set to voice only)
so it usually takes 60-70 players in an instance for it to get 30-ish frames for me usually
(unless its a world that doesn't perform well)
I have 15fps or less with 25-30 players
it takes a lot for me to feel even slightly motion sick so I don't mind running around in 30 fps. Only becomes an issue when its below 15 frames and the game is a slideshow XD
but the world creator meetups are a good example of how 60-70 people can work in vrc
and we've sometimes hit full 80 there
all optimized avatars for the most part at these events too
my world hop events are constantly around 40 people and performance for me was fine
but this is all with the safety settings I use above
I also have the dynamic bone setting turned on too
whatever the default value is ingame
32 transforms / avatar
🙂
8-16 collision checks / avatar
sounds right 🙂
but i've generally had a good time performance wise in vrc for a long time now
most of my friends tend to have optimized avatars so that helps a lot
i stopped using dynamic bones myself for new avatars now, didn't like how they behave when you move about
and I'm not the type of person who finds sits in the same spot ingame for hours so soft tilts to see hair flop around is not something I experience XD
My biggest wish list is for Blocked avatars to have profile pictures on the chest like quest does
oh like the thumbnail of the avatar?
What if they marked if someone changed avatar when you blocked
Unless thats what adon means?
Adeon means just showing the avatar thumbnail on the chest I think
so you can indentify each person in the robot avatar
which I think would be cool 🙂
Yeah quest already does it no idea why Pc can’t have it
Makes a room full of robots less confusing, especially if nameplates are off
Well it has been a while
well they've had their hands full
so lets wait to see what they focus on once 2018 and udon are out 🙂
🙃
does anyone know a car avatar where u can sit in it?
There is one in the toga ikita avatar world unless they removed it
saved?
🤫

🤡
how dare you
Hi
How r u
an avatar*
So may I ask why world leader avatars aren't okay, yet panties on 9 year old anime girl avatars are okay?
every girl wears (or should wear) panties so thats why theyre allowed I guess
I just saw a avatar used in vr chat maybe
^
Www
Is it ok if I send a picture or smtg
^
That isn't a valid reason. This is on child-like figures. And I'm pretty kids don't wear panties for everyone to see, especially in public. I haven't even touched upon the giant genitalia avatars yet.
Wait what, they shouldn't be wearing panties? O_o. That's gotta be a first
its free and theres a desktop mode, that helps with getting screaming kids
true
i'm fine with kiddo's if they don't scream
no point in hating a person for being born later than yourself
I am fine with them if I do not see em :D
Sure, but it gives you something to focus your problems on—how annoying they are. That's why people have issues with kids. Because they lack maturity.
I've meet ton of kiddo's who are mature
saying every kid is immature is a weak mindset
but thats just how i feel
Idc honestly mature of not, I do not want then around irl or vr 😅
They are immature—physically
good point
And the ones I'm talking about are like below age 11
if the kid is above the age of 13 he's "good"
Idk about that
Not necessarily
he's old enough for the game atleast
I've met 22yo who aren't mature
There are immature adults out there in their 40s
true
for some reason i get really uncomfortable around young kids in VR when im in VR too. i can't explain why but there is something deeply unsettling about it.
like under the age of 15.
i think it's something to either do with their avatar, or that they're the same size as me, or the way they approach me or act, im not really sure, but i do not like it at all lol
Yeah same
and it's specifically VR kids, not desktop ones. those are fine.
it almost feels like its just an environment they dont belong in.
im all for them being there tho for sure, i just get a lil freaked out for some reason
If only we could mute or block them or something
I always just ponder how they convinced thier parents to buy them a VR headset
true
Nothing wrong with gatekeeping things that people clearly shouldn't be in. VRChat is full of, what is essentially girls of questionable age dressed as hookers.
people below the age of 13 def's shouldn't be in vrc
Well that's against TOS anyway
yeah
Nobody care about tos lmao
im pretty sure its law that they cant have accounts for stuff under 13 regardless of platform
But is it though? Given that nothing has ever been done about it and those avatars make up most public lobbies these days?
i dont remember
Talking about several things at once here
@faint skiff While it isn't as common as it should be people are banned for being younger than 13 and for having suggestive material. It's against the rules but the rules are enforced once in a blue moon
agree'd
but there's no point in gatekeeping kids (above the age of 13) in vrc
they have as much right to be there as you
Do they?
yes
correct
I ain't gatekeeping, they can be there it's great that they are and get to have fun and experience it, I just personally get a little weirded out.
Some situations more than others
This is like, something on all of the internet
Just don't go to quest compatible worlds lol
@frosty veldt That'll be due to the complete lack of moderators/moderation.
Problem solved
there's like so many different things going on here than just gatekeeping
only people born before 1400BC can react with 🗿
1 - you cant keep kids away from everything especially if you personally know kids who have the maturity, knowledge, and experience to handle something like VR
oh this type of gatekeeping
2 - you can reasonably bar" kids" (pick an age) from interacting with you for a number of specific and strong reasons. Maturity is valid and okay, to keep kids away from you, not the platform. sometimes it can be more specific, like how commissioners do not accept business from young people in case they can't properly manage money
People always say that it's the players job to report people but it's usually easier to just move on
3 - who you interact with is up to you, and block / mute tools decide this. In a more ideal future we would finally have that guild feature or at least rhe ability to mark lobbies as 18+ or some other form of restricted
What if I'm a 900yo mature lolibaba?
true
ID verification for 18+
there should be worlds that are 18+
Oh and 4 - i wont deny that there is radical differences between platforms that are exclusively 18+ and only 13+, even if people try to fake ages. I think for VRChat specifically you really only need circles that are 18+, hence there should be guild or restricted instance support, which i think lends itself to guild support since thats already a feature that the dev team has entertained
Dont exclude me aaa
Too late
bruh i just said they made me uncomfortable
lul
they should still be allowed to do w/e they want ofc, i was not nor did i mean to imply otherwise
me being uncomfortable is my problem
Don't be mean
don't think anyone likes being around unsupervised children Tae I'm with you on that
Tell that to weebs
oh god
I am weeb
To jail with you
Oh yeah def, children who need supervision when the chaperone is gone are the real evil
no I'm not going
Alright then 😔
police: go to jail
me an intellectual: nah
I feel when things are heavily age-gated it makes the community even more lewd and gross because people start to feel it’s other people’s problem if they don’t like it.
yeah, i think things are fine as they are. simply more moderation is required.
(for those actually under 13)
You also risk having the platform labeled a sex game, like with Second Life
Exactly. There's also the whole social aspect to consider, as much as a stupid problem it is
I'm very against 18+ lobbies
[X] competitor might be able to get away with simply stating that while the game is obviously 13+ like any other content online there can also be 18+ lobbies where restricted streaming among other rules apply
then again Why are kids playing vrchat? is the question, where are their parents?
Idk. Why are kids playing anything?
everyone 18+ should be banned from vrc, aswell as anyone under 13 so its just teens vibin' with memes (jk)
who cares. If its a shitty kid then i ask that question, much how i ask if a shitty adult is still living with their parents
that people below the age of 18 wants to have fun?
theyre playing to talk and have fun, same reasons why social things like gaia or habbo existed
thats crazy right?
Okay im sorry i didnt mean that, nothing's wrong with stillnliving with family if ur an adult > <
kids should be aware that there are consequences and prohibited areas to reach
but nah, they don't care.
It's wrong actually if you don't actively try to get out but that's another subject
Mmm, it's only wrong if you're leeching IMO
my parents need me more than I need them. I'd say it's circumstancial
it all depends on context. Usually you should at least be paying rent
That's what i meant lin
Mhm
If you are just a parasite then fuck off basically
a lot of cultures have the mindset of, you dont move out until you get married
LINT >~<
dirty lint lookin ass
My culture is "dont leave us ur supposed to be our maid"
😂
belly button lint
Im fucking leaving next year fuck that lmao
Same
lint is kinda a cute name
also lint id both gross and satisfying
pocket dust
Oh wait i already did ayyy
omg cute
~<
Wha
VRChat is perfectly safe for kids with parental supervision ngl.
Lol wat
Anyone who does anything that would be illegal if a child was witnessing it shouldn’t be doing it in VRChat public in the first place
Not unless the parents have one of those memory wipers from men in black
we playing the same game lol
Yes I’m simply shifting the responsibility
@pure hemlock neuralizer
If you're standing on good ground then your memory wiper is right there ayy
@languid beacon Like walking around wearing stripper / erotic show attire? lol
that doesn't make it kid appropriate though
So hold them responsible
it is the parents or adults to cover their eyes and say No
still doesn't protect the kids by telling other people to follow the rules
I can easily put a gore picture on your face and crash you at the same time and you won't be able to exit vrchat
oof
yeah
IMO when talking about stuff like that it becomes a lot more of a parental problem anyway
If there’s a kid seeing a latex fetishest walking around Walmart do you blame: A.) the kid for being in Walmart B.) The fetishest for being in public or C.) Walmart
B and C
Don't play vrchat of you want to be safe, simple as that
B
Walmart actually has staff to remove latex fetishists
there's a good amount of 18+ people who shid and cum in #user-support-old when they get crashed by avatars
VRChat has no staff, it's the wild west
@languid beacon legit facts
They don't have devs either anymore
And how often do you run into latex fetishishsts in walmart compared to VRChat
Something something dead game something

like the parents have a burden to help their kids grow and react better to these situations among other things
It's like taking your kid to the strip club not walmart
Vrchat doesn't represent the real world thankfully
parents are irresponsible these days 😔
Even if the burden is shared between them and the platform to keep kids from experiencing something shitty or doing something shitty
If you raise your kid properly he won't go on vrchat
not every public world is filled with nsfw stuff
lol
most people just wanna have a good time
False but ok
Pretty much every world has avatars that are probably 'nsfw' and not safe for kids, even if they aren't nude lol
@astral granite Hah. Find me a single fucking public lobby where most the avatars aren't in super skimpy clothing, or creepy lolis.
actually every public worlds is filled with e-boys and e-girls at least 1 or 2
aight i give up
most of the time their skins are mostly revealed
Strip clubs are safe to bring your kid to too based on the arugments I am seeing here, shift the responability to the club not the parents
Public lobbies are really random tbh
correct
I guess that’s my whole point. I don’t want VRChat to be “like a strip club”
Im like the last person wo stays in lobbies that dont have skimpy eboys and egirls but a lot more questy boys or bananas
Too late for that
Everyone who else - who usually complain about nsfw content being a lot more prevalent publically - leave my lobbies cuz theyre apparently boring
By age gating you make the platform worse. By forcing it to be age friendly you can take your lewd stuff in private and punish those who don’t
I agree with that Adeon. I don't want it to be that either. But it basically is.
blame vrchat memes for the attraction on kids, or better yet blame the youtubers that records the memes showing it to kids to attract them
I get that its a problem but its not that massive and world type is also critical
The void and black cat are literally a world apart
It's almost like moderation in game would help
black cat is mostly chill
Black cat is pretty chill most of the time tbh
Still wouldn't bring me kids their though lol
yeah
Lol yeah
For one thing, how would you feel about making use of and enforcing the correct categorization of nsfw content checkbox on upload and put a filter in place that won’t load it in public instances
F you ddid have a son or daughter and were like "hey wanna try out vrchat"
Mommy why does that catgirl have a jiggly bulge under her skirt
Id probably boot up a friends only world and open up a lot of quest stuff
lmao
Very quest stuff like Blue's worlds
Black Cat is normally a 12 year old filled mess now. Twice in the last few times I've been there, there were kids under 10 running around.
@languid beacon still wouldn't matter cuz kids will still want to bypass it
I think a nifty udon script to write in the future should be an instance MOTD
How do you make sure someone is tagging his avatar properly?
maybe add an icon in-game? dunno
they should just moderate public avatars
upon joining you get either a screenspace message(bad) or world element like a TV or billboard (good) that explains why it exists
just find a world bigenough to put some distance between spawn and where you are and boom, thats probably mostly safe
The problem is the lack of moderation
Its been so carefree that people are doing whatever they want and don't care about rules
that is actually true, no offense.
Not sure where the obsession that anywhere that disallows kids would immediately become some sort of orgy den though, weird jump.
And if you try to impose stuff now you are just going to anger a lot of people
it would
It’s a change in attitude when you know kids aren’t allowed
By your logic, most Friends+ instances would be that then...
adeon is right, the orgy jump wont come from a change in restrictions but a change in implications
I think you're all projecting to be honest, or just weirdly fixated on it.
happened to second life, anyway
what you would get is a spotlight on "18+ acceptance" that would bring more people to the game specifically for that
Or at least thats hat i always fucking hear every time its brought up
cuz people are dumb
like thats literally the only reaon why it happens. Its stupid but it will happen
Actually with SL it's a case of Correlation does not imply Causation. Most people got bored of the platform, that simply left people using it for "other stuff".
never played second Life but I think that's my point
Plus people have always liked to shit on SL so "omg it's a sex gaaamme" was just another way to do that.
is that how it actually went down?
No
Then you have the parrots, like Lint just admitted to being, who "heard" it off someone else, then other people hear it off them.
Before you know it, your mum definitely banged the milkman, because I heard of it off a guy down the pub so it must be true.
the VRChat team literally go out of their way to not even acknowledge the adult content in this game to avoid this (my assumption)
Don't be mean
Can you blame me? I don't think there's a better way for me to find out if I wasn't there on the platform
Yup. That’s exactly what happened to Second Life. They had illegal issues with adult content so they addressed it with a +18 age gate. That only served to make the adult content even more prominent and eventually it became the only thing the platform was about.
so, vrc is fine as it is?
yeah my issue there summed up
Like if i'm gonna get it wrong then i'm gonna get it wrong and learn better, you can't throw shade at me for being a parrot when literally everyone including you learns shit by getting them wrong first
Vrc is garbage
no
the game might quite literally die. because I'd imagine they'd lose funding if there was an "adult content is being encouraged in a 13+ game" scandal
If you don't have a friend group or dislike all the ethot eboy, I find it hard to enjoy it
Depends
I played since early 2017 and was always hopping in public worlds
i actually don't mind all the content
The most toxic degenerate cultures seem to have just taken over, over time
Vrchat to me is like...its better discord lol
Like i can talk to people on discord. Or i can get in vrchat
I didn't touch the game regularly for like 6 months now
Ymmv
vrc 2017 > vrc 2020
vrchat to me is better than real life, cuz real life is a joke
whyy udidi ebvegrurone ltjevs e me in crandok hayat
ik ejas tkakine for 10 minjtuees
Real life is better tbh
I can't make an accurate comparison since I've only experienced 2019 onward
I can make friends in rea life and I don't have to watch them erp randomly
well thats your perspective so i guess you are you
I cant rank physical interaction against virtual interaction
why not 
People throw respect for other peoples comfort and boundaries out the window completely in VR
If you aren't lewd you aren't cool
iantkiene pgsyycial annd virituwl interaction
I cant spend more than 50% of my time either outside or online
must be seeing the wrong folks
