XD
I’ve got a good long ways though- since I want to go all the way with full body tracking as well
so how do i fix vrchat pulling 100% network and 50% of my cpu?
I believe in u Grem, hope u get it soon and also hope everybody here has a wonderful week and day including u Grem hope u get the valve headset soon. Best of luck to everybody here and everybody in the sever, hope u all have a wonderful day as well

Lmao
Sorry guys... I shouldn't have said that, it was insensitive if me sivi apologize I'm advance
Thanks Stoxe- I appreciate it.
You don’t
I'm super addicted to it trust me you don't
Playing fourteen hours straight does not help my addiction.
It interferes with everything
;p
It would gimme something to do
And I would have new friendos
I need me some new friends xc
My PC is Garbage and i mean it. i have to wait into Christmas to get a new PC
can't play vrchat as well
it sucks
Luckily Christmas isn't far
I am a willing friend to everyone 😄
👀 Damn
I have to wait until my birthday (january) to get all the parts to upgrade my pc. Maybe even until february or even longer if prices go up
SAME
I'm super super calm and patient so its not hard for me
Luckily and I'm lucky and i MEAN it, every single person i met said I'm the luckiest person they ever met in the life (No flex, sorry if it is) 😔
I used to be a complete di## but my friends helped me down the right path I'm so grateful for that

Anybody know how to change the cache for vrchat to keep it off the c drive?
Its clogging my drive
Is the game saved on your c drive?
What's the best sdk to use friendos?
sdk2 for simple avatars, sdk3 if you want to spend a week trying to learn the new advanced animation stuff
Lol
anyone here use vive trackers with oculus because i could use some help
Why struggling with the setup?
yeah my base station is pictured in the ground and my tracker is too and the movement is inverted
rip
did you use openvr space calibrator?
yeah it calibrates it fine but like all i need to do is rotate and lift the base sation virtually almost like with the kinect to vr calbiration
I need cuddles TwT
the base station is slammed into the center of my play space and that makes the tracker in the ground
Sure thing Zero🫂

Do you guys know which TitanFall mech avatars have seat function?
where another player can sit down in the cockpit
I'm about to quit avatar making now. VRChat did an update where we cant upload avatars over 10MB. Bro I swear I'm done. They ruined my whole fucking avatar making carrier
I wish they didnt do that. I'm pissed now.
That's not a thing.
how do I put a sit option on an avatar
I need help with getting my own custom vrchat models in vrchat, like getting the correct sdk, the correct version of unity and getting my avatar in vrchat
drag and drop a chair on it
Some avatars have chairs
If somebody can help me pls dm me and put me in a voice call to to it
@vocal shard try asking specific questions in #avatars-2-general and #avatar-help
@vocal shard As its a fairly long process that isnt too complex in most cases people wont really hold your hand and explain everythings. Its best to look up a youtube video and follow the information that the VRC website gives on this.
Also you can download the right unity and SDK on the VRC website, any other place means your breaking the rules or will have the wrong version.
i still run a version from the 5.6 days lmao
I want to make a mech avatar with a sitting option, and a pilot for the mech
Hope you mean SDK version izuna
so, what mecha from anime should I use?
yes
ehh, idk, maybe ask google
Gurren Lagann
the only vrchat custom avatar importing is from a year ago which is outdated
Man, it should not be that hard to google...
give me 2 seconds and il get you a link
so, i'm a noob, where and how do I upload avatars'
@vocal shard You need help with every step or just the unity part.
uploading hasnt changed in at least 2 years
basically every step
so I can understand wtf Im doing
and we can do it in a group chat with @vocal shard or just in dm's with voice call
And I will screenshare so u know wtf I am doing to guide me
pls
yessir
if its just the upload, i made a manual for that once: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W6DXAcMiHBsj-9DHe7v1-03MRIf4y1Tc/view?usp=sharing
Its getting the correct sdk in the correct version of unity and getting the avatar in unity correctly and the getting the avatar on my vrc account
its just a tiny bit outdated by now. I need to make a second AV3 version for this at some point
wait, do you need unity to do it?
yea? what did you expect?
idk
So far i can see this goes over literally fucking everything you should know
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQJMd3v7xJY
Yes its long, yes its over explained in lost of parts and often wont apply but who knows, maybe you want to upload scuffed stuff.
@regal furnace can u dm me and I invite @vocal shard in our dms so we can voice call and screenshare?
i give up on 3.0 im going back to sdk2 lmfao
i dont do VC with strangers, sorry
dms are fine
what about voice call and mute ur mic?
are yall finna help him with avatar stuff
like i said, i dont do VC with strangers, only very close and RL friends
because if you guys are free. i need some help after that lmfao
How do i make an equipped avatar unavailable to copy
disable avatar cloning or upload it as private
Can I add someone so I can get new user rank and upload content I would appreciate it my other accounts have it or had until I merged one of them and everything went to hell but yeah I wanna get custom avatars so if you would wanna help me out add sacuL_starsite I would appreciate it
I asked my parents for one thing for my bday this year. 1. Fucking. Thing. A quest. They said no. Im about to fucking cry but on the inside
Pain
hi everyone
Hey so I recently had my laptop wiped 2 days I've reinstalled everything again right and today I finally decided to play vr again and set everything up and the first game I decided to check out was vrchat and I got to the login screen to login with my steam account or vrchat account I lgoged in with my vrchat account because I'm pretty sure that's what I usually do BUT apparently none of my avatars were saved???? which is really annoying because a lot of my avatars were really hard to find
idk what to do because I legit will quit the game over this I had hella avatars that I just I won't be able to find again
You must have logged into the wrong account then, avatars are not saved on your PC
hello i have a question can you use the occulus rift to play vr chat or does it have to be a rift S
You can play with either
ok thank you !
and last questions i am really new to this but must i pay or creat my avatar to have one or is there some ressource to have an easy to download avatar?
I only have one account ho?
I mean I guess I can try logging in with steam instead
Oh boy, getting VR again
i really want to play VRC more and start streaming it but i don't really know what to do in the game
Socializing isn't an easy task for everyone...
It sure as heck isn't for me either.
Well, i more so play because i like messing around with content creation in the SDK. I have some past game-dev experience that helped me learn a bit faster.
Especially easier since i already knew how Unity worked.
Is it just me or is it weird when walking near some people lately? I forgot if it's particles or shaders (EDIT: turns out it's particles), but the screen and UI elements just fade to black when walking in a certain direction towards someone
anybody wanna join me
It works fine for me
works fine for 98% of people
anyone here have full body tracking but play desktop mode for more than 50% of the time
No???
weird, why would you do that
cause putting on the trackers is too much work rn
Mmh... I would happily always do that work if i even would have VR lol
so if you don't put on your trackers you downgrade straight to desktop? lol
anyone know why action menu isnt working
How do we get to the events?
Hey vr chat poeple can I partner with you guys
@vocal shard I mean, shit we could meet up in black cat I'm just playing a text based game
@pearl rune There's an open mic night at like 2am right?
I can say anything about servers I scard I might get kicked
🤷♂️ @ashen tide why?
Also refer to #rules
This is why I always look for rules before I say a word in any discord server.
We're not currently accepting applications to add servers to the community list as the person who was taking care of that isn't at the moment @vocal shard
Sorry I was just curious
Vatarge
Thanks

guys does anyone have a furret avatar for pc and quest?
I really want a cute furret avatar ;c
Ferret? Or Furry?
hmmmm
hey
I wonder if there ever be a change to have the 2017 vrchat community back with the good old loading worlds n such, was much more peaceful and quiet back then
Did the most recent update break a lot of movie worlds?
where do I get more avatars for free?
in worlds
Ah ty
Lol
@dusk lava hol' up a second
ok this is gonna be weird but did anybody else's game freeze/crash and have this ringing in their headphones? it just happened to me and a friend and i was curious if this happened to anyone else
yeah videos broken for me
Does anyone play animal crossing new horizons?!
I thought it was just me with the videos
do ppl know u unfriend them?? lol
If they check out their friendslist, yeah
sob
I havent been online for a long while, none of the friends I made are online FeelsBadMan
Same
why is that i get hit on everytime i speak
i just wanna hang out
Coz gorl online
Gotta simp for girls anyone with female voice
They would die without it
Yh it's annoying as hell for me, if i talk in game chat for any game, literally 2 secs people think I'm hard and scary and try to get with me and its super annoying for me if its a guy so then they try to make fun of me yet it never works i wonder why?
Is it just me or does the Pug not wanna work?
I am usually silent unless it's just me and one other person
its rlly silly sometimes cuz i literally lookk nothing like my avatars but they hit on me anyway
Literally it's stupid
You could have a rock for an avatar and as long as you have a fem voice guys will swarm
hi
Sniff Guys you smell that? Femaleeee! Wolfboys swarm like flies
Pug works for me @sharp saddle
Damn
same, i thought i did, but i learned that he doesnt rlly like talking to me, oof
Roood
its fine since i didnt know em that long, still kinda sucks knowing i just bother him when i ping to hang out
;-;
Yikes, hope you feel better now and also hope u have real friends now Vampy. Because u deserve it👍
Question, does your trusted rank reset after a while? it shows that I am a new user again
And I'm definitely using the right account because of my saved models
Your welcome, if u need someone to talk to I'm here for u Vampy
Missvampy if you ever need someone to just vibe with - maybe watch some anime on a video player or whatever - you ping me and I'll hang out with you. I'll bring all my friends, too, we'll go where that guy that doesn't like you hangs out and we'll flaunt your newfound popularity in his face. Make him feel like a sucker for not wanting to experience the awesomeness that is you.
And I mean that in the least-creepy I'm-a-girl-and-I'm-here-for-you way possible, I just can't word it as well as I'd like cause I just got off of 14 hours straight of playing and my brain is mush
Same here Sloth but i don't have a lot of friends though lol
awhhh you guys r really sweet, its not that big of a deal hahah. thank you though
I don't have a lot, but I have enough to either make the guy feel like an ass or make him poo his pants, depends on who I bring to the party. 😛
@peak robin You can derank if people unfriend/report you and ect
Same can happen if you got an upload ban or a normal one. But if you where more then one rank higher then new user it seems fairly odd
I def had the trusted rank
Would love to make him feel that way as well sloth!
It can be worth sending an email to the support team then. But im not sure if they can actual help on this topic.
But check the ticket system out in #vrchat-support
But then again, I havent played in well over a year- being a new user won't hurt me
I'd contact support and see if there wasn't something done to your account, tbh. Idk what their log system is like and if it'd be extensive enough to see why your account would drop a bunch of ranks over the past year+ that you've been away, but they might have some insight at the very least.

Also pats
Big flibble

I am also gonna second about pug issues, the rooms kept trying to reload and there is a very small amount of people in the pug rooms
Pats
@vocal shard Hiiii. :D
Uh anyone else getting a weird sound bug?
Kinda notice in this update that some worlds with 3rd person cam are broken.
hahah hiii
Heya!
So I want to run vrchat wirelessly through the oculus store is that possible through virtual desktop because I keep getting hardware failure
Yo who has cool avatars/ demons that i can clone?
I have a quick question, so I spend a lot of time in sleeping worlds, but I've noticed recently that when new people join, if you've been there for a while, they'll see you in a different location compared to where you actually are.
Is this being worked on or has this always been a thing in VRC?
i think it has to do with one of the recent IK updates
Ahh okay, so it might get fixed down the line then I suppose
It fixes itself if I just reload the world but then again, I'd prefer to not do that most the time!
hi
Does anyone know which layers I need to enable to make a LQ mirror reflect only the player and other players? I can get it to reflect others but not myself in unity
I have players and playerlocal enabled but everything else seems idk
does anyone know where to get those uh
the cat people avatars with the lsd tunnels
anyone wanna play with me my username is ratchete ed2b
Ok?
That’s like 1/3 of a year
But vrchat has been out for almost 7 years.
Even if they only started 3 years ago. That's only just over 2 hours a day
Okay but still
Especially after the lockdown

And if they're someone who sleeps in vr.. that's like 6 free hours a day

Spent 2 weeks trying to figure out why index tracking sucked
it was an iPad sittting on my couch
was making a a third upsidedown base station in the reflection
I got pinged.
Yeah it's interesting how you have to cover reflective surfaces
I put a sheet over my gecko tanks.
(Probably better for them as well with the infrared light)
Although idk how my computer case doesn't cause interference
hello i just joined recently to VRChat i use on steam, i cant afford the headset and controllers so i play by keyboard, i go by Mr. Ashley ingame usually cat boy or cat girl, i seem to throw ppl off with my name sometimes because Ashley is unisex and it just now days used for a girl instead of the old days, really rare with a boy having the name so, I'm nonbinary but ppl told me its still misleading so ill probley rehanged it again in 3 months
Or they just deal with it 👀
Yup
Cause for me I have the name iiOliverRose, other than the fact of me being female. I do go by both since I personally don’t care b u t -

Oliver my oc is male, that’s why I don’t mind going by both
Hey What’s Going on people
Not much
Ashley is an old fashion western boys name its just not used anymore i mean it is but very rare
Not much
And yeah I understand. I go by Jamie, which is unisex. But often I get dms from people thinking I'm a girl

Dont fall for the lie, jamie is totally the waifu they seem
That’s rough buddy
wtf
well, if you guys have problems with gender, what about me then?
people like to confuse me as a japanese girl all the time or something else
Damn
since i play by keyboard when i want to block someone it wont let me only mute
Mine is kinda hard I guess
btw, i really like the name ashley ^^
ty

Yeah it seems a lot of unisex names are regionalize to how they're used. But over time I've been finding more names used for both. It's kinda nice actually
You know- I do kinda wonder how much vrc helped people realize the egg_irl stuff
Jamie and lzuna are lovely names same with ashley. hope u all have a wonderful week and stay safe
same
I'm still normal IRL
VRC made me realize that im even weirder than i thought
Vrc made me realize I like to loved and get hugs... Where as irl I'm quite closed off

📝
Big spoon hug or smol spoon hugs tho jamie
🗒️ writing this down👀
XD
0//~//0
pretty normal for VRchat standards
Most avatars are 150 at least
That's the default miku tda height I think
my weeb model is 160 cm tall
and I'm taller than like 90% of other female models
gotta have to see how smol mine is
no thanks
My neck hurt looking down all the time
I don't even try anymore

I should make a irl height model
we need to bring back knuckles >:(
I'll just look at the nameplates now since they are right at face level
Neko's can be quite small, wouldn't really use the term "midget" since it's also usually rather negatively used.
I wish more avatars would stick to true hights of the characters tho. 
yea, around 1,25m
There is temporary fun variants and then the normal 
Lol


just put a crasher on your feet and step on all the tiny avatars
that will teach them to be like insects

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/629317697431142432/759863280033857546/unknown.png
the block is scaled to 1.25 and moved up by 0.625
yea
pretty smol
i kinda wanna port this one over to 3.0, but thats gonna be a lot of work
125cm gang

Jamie, you and I have a similar problem. I love getting hugs/snuggled/headpats/you name it... and I want them IRL but I'm too 𝒶𝓌𝓀𝓌𝒶𝓇𝒹 to try and get them from anyone. And when people try to show me affection IRL I 𝓇𝓊𝓃 𝒶𝓌𝒶𝓎.

can someone please tell me how to join a vr chat event? In the events channel, the event is posted, but the link just creates a calendar event with no useful information on how to get to the event
@bitter elk in #events check the pinned messages. There's a link to the vrchat events server
the link was to a discord server. I don't know how to get there in vrchat
Yeah, you go the the discord server. And all the events and links are handled through there
thank you. I was able to get the link, but it launches vr chat in vr. I was hoping to use the desktop client
non vr
is anyone else having issues with vrc?
dear vrc team you can no longer ignore your safty issues
Is there a right hand man avatar in vrchat
Safty
I hate streamers?
Lmao
Is there a right hand man avatar in vrchat
The thing is, how the link launching is handled @bitter elk . It is a batch script. It just launches the game with parameters. There exists a --no-vr parameter that will prevent the game from going to VR mode when launched from command line (exactly what the web start handling script does). I had to make an additional handling bat between the handler bat and the game that adds the --no-vr parameter to the command based on user's choice to be able to use both modes. I was confused first too that it starts from web in VR, but Googling told me about that parameter.
I've seen some people able to make their avatars change their height, floating or phasing into the floor so they can meet at different eye levels. How do people do that?
I've seen some people able to make their avatars change their height, floating or phasing into the floor so they can meet at different eye levels. How do people do that?
@uneven rock pressing c to sit and pressing z to slither across the floor
if you press the same key you used to sit or slither again you will get to normal
about floating idk
I mean, like, they move the entire avatar up and down. Not changing poses, and they're in VR, not on desktop
@uneven rock you might be talking about either playspace mover or while they are in full body, doing calibration. Specifically t posed.
when is vrchat going to change their username system
so if you change your username from something you dislike, you dont have to sign in with it
Playspace mover is part of open VR advanced settings, we can use that to move up and down without having to physically do it, or while sitting to slide down to the VR floor to prevent floating. Etc.
How do you record in third person with the camera like youtubers and streamers do?
Any reasson why i lag so much when i open up my menu (social/worlds/avatars) ? my CPU is fine
@uncut trail new bug
How do you get Trusted User? I have 600+ hours.
I think its constantly refreshing the menu which causes a lot of lag
@vocal shard play a lot and upload content
I have uploaded some things.
I got mine at 500 hours. A friend of mine at 1200.
Never understood that.
Yeah, they're trying to be the top person,
Top person? What's that mean
On the online list, their name shows first.
Ohhh
Top of the member list on discoed
Yeah.
Since its alphabetical special characters go first
Yep

anyone has jojo avatars?
Jojo avatars should not be too hard to find unless you looking for something very specific. Plenty of avatar worlds with them should appear if you search Jojo.
How system intensive are the avatar creation/customization software?
it's actually pretty easy to make JoJo models for the game yourself.
i have to wait to get an email for some reason to use my models, but if you want help I can try
@low tusk you can model stuff in Blender with a 10 year old potato. Unity and the SDK for uploading your work, requires a bit more.
But basically, if you can play VRChat on it, you can make avatars on it. 😉
ok thank you@unique mauve
I want to atleast learn to add custom skins effects to already existing avatars
Is there any virtual music progressive house and melodic techno dj shows going on anywhere
e
so why does my brother having vrchat open on his computer make the internet for every other device in the house tank and have 400+ ping
Don't you love it when people block you over your avatar even though you've literally had no interaction with them.
Like fr if you're someone who does that, dont, all it does is mess things up.
I only turn off lewd avatars. There are people that walk around public lobbies with really bad ones.
Thing is my avatar was just an average shiba avatar not a crasher or anything
Nobody has ever had a problem with it except a couple peope who "judge a book by it's cover" persay
Oh.
There needs to be more safety staff or something. Some guy really freaked out when I tried to talk against a certain behavior in the game then he switched to a really bad avatar after blocking him. Some people even commented that they will call the cops cause of his behavior.
Thing is you cannot call the cops over something someone does in a VIDEOGAME
Police have better things to worry about
Some behavior in this platform is bad, even if it's improv, similar to prank calls.
Well, that's what you get when a game is like 99% UGC
Not if the staff and volunteers monitor it like Steamn community for example.
Out of curiosity - what you describe as an ideal monitoring system for such a broad range of people and instances?
^
Unless you have somebody watch every single instance, which would be physically impossible.
Just have one those monitoring rooms with million monitors that have a live feed to every possible instance in the game
haha kinda like surveillance rooms in movies
What about moderators that could be unseen and be in the public instance? An Algorithm could determine which instances to be placed in with a user who was blocked by others multiple times within a certain amount of time.
ima hop on vrc anyone want to join and chill
What if a few buddies run around and randomly mass-block bystanders?
Good point. Mischief would prevent that algorithm from working I guess.
Plus I don't think people realize that blocking someone screws with their rank too
Thanks to that 1 guy I'll be stuck at user for even longer now thanks rando
i've been at user for like months now send help
@vocal shard This isn't meant to dissuade the discussion, rather to point out that any proposed solution for malfeasance will be, by design, a complex and difficult one to approach.
Yeah it will be really difficult to "moderate" everything due to how big of a platform vrc is
We haven't even gotten into degrees of behavior yet. Trolling, harassment, et al, versus genuine credible threats to another user, as a broad example.
Also a big problem with moderators is, they cost a lot of money if you want to use employee's or they become a big resource drain with having someone else having to monitor them if you use volunteers
That feeling when it's a Sunday night and none of your friends are online
well, it's technically Monday now as of a minute ago
8 am for me really depends on what time zone your friends are in
Couple of them are canadian most of them are from us
wonder how many friends I have in total ima check
And the few people who still have work in 2020 will have to wake up early most likely 😂
nvm the offline friends thing is still broken
ye I'm an "essential worker"
but I work afternoons thankfully
Go ahead @buoyant cargo
That's harsh. (Does hiding someone's avatar do anything?)
Yeah, if you don't want to see someone's avatar, then hide it, don't block them.
Yeah, Blocking affects the trust and safety score. Isn't that right?
If I see a trusted user using their rank to screw with my fov and cover my screen to give me vr sickness im blocking him idv
@vocal shard don't forget to also report them else nothing ever will be solved
it only happened to me 2 times but yeah i blocked and reported them for an annoying avatar
Yeah, Blocking affects the trust and safety score. Isn't that right?
Yes, it does. I heard someone got booted to nuisance because a client user used a bunch of bots and mass blocked them, however I question how true that is
If that happens that would be just the matter of contacting support
What irritates me is that many people (including myself) just play the game to chill out and have fun, however there's people who play the game just to ruin it.
much like the tf2 bot-pocalypse
yeah they sort of fixed that
they required you to buy something from the store
or if you already owned the game you didn't have to do anything
You ever just be vibing to early 2010's music because it's actually good
synthwave is lit
70s and 80s music is fire too
You know in a different game called Town of Salem, a text based mafia game, there used to be a massive bot raid that spammed game lobbies and troll to the point that if you tried to join a game there would be at least 7 out of 15 people are trolling bots
the devs tried stuff, like google captcha, ingame image captcha, word detection, new user limitations, spam filters, and limited time on chatting. Literally none of them worked.
Until they made town of salem cost 5 dollars
And them boom, bots gone
maybe vrchat can take an example from here
Making a game pay to play is really the onyl way to fix spambots
If you make users pay a small fee of 5 dollars, they would have to pay money up to make new accounts to keep trolling.
Exactly
Should really deter most people from even thinking about trolling
it's how you reduce (not completely remove) people like that
but in the same way you reduce the userbase
paid vs free is a massive difference
I mean
If vrchat became pay to play, the userbase would take a real big OOF
5 dollars isn't alot of money at all
It adds up quick tho
For you
and thats you beeing able to just go any pay for it
many would just seek a different free game, and especially the sub 18 group of people.
And everyone who already played the game for a significant anount of time should be able to keep playing for free
That doesn't solve the problem of growth limiting
making a game paid will not solve the trolling people
if it worked, there would be no cheater in online games like COD or CS
Its suppose to deter most of them
no solution is going to 100% kill trolling
so "punish" the bigger part of the plyerbase for just a part of trolls to stop
You want the game to be paid to try and solve the problem but in the end it will still have some
So most people will just say that they paid for the game for nothing since trolls will still be present
back to vrc, private instances do exist which keeps random people out and only certain people can join
I usually hang out in private instances except the one or two times I'll be in a public instance
🤢
but yeah making a game paid is one way to fix it but isn't a real good decision
This is a massive long shot. But if anyone is friends with a VRCHAT user who is a mute/speaking sign language and goes by "Plot" could you let me know. They're an old friend and I'd love to get back in contact
i'm like... rly bored right now... anyone wanna hang? all my Discord friends are asleep
its early morning for europe and late at night for murica after all
hehe true, but i'm not tired yet XD
Prime time for Asia Australia though 
lmao that paid convo up top.. they also forgot if that happened then anything copyrighted would have to be destroyed which would cause community to just die out right
then booth.pm would be pretty much the only place to get avatars from because all the avatars in worlds would get removed
pretty much
even if made it where got premium like perks like special rooms and worlds where free members could not go. could really mess up the community either way.. no real way to make it work i personally find it to late at this point. i have left and dropped world/games due to that being later on added. i understand its like a thing to keep it running but... if not implanted for it to make sense it just hurts more
Vrc dlc here we go bois 🕺

Technically, we already have "DLC", considering the sheer amount of paid assets you can buy to use in VRChat.
While it's not official DLC, you can't deny it's existence.
Reminds me of those unofficial expansion packs for a bunch of old PC games back in the day... WAY before my time actually.
i see i see
are updates considered dlc tho
3.99$/update
Hey guys what are you doing?
Why not
but svel is taken by ghosto
🤫
Hmmm

Hi
User NelaFreya threatened to crash the game for a few people and then the game then crashed
I thought that would be worth mentioning
Also appears to have multiple accounts under the same name, with the same picture
And another crasher in my lobby
that's 2 within a couple hours, they play a pulsing high beeping tone and overload gpu and cpu.
When are the devs going to do something?
I heard the tone as well
when are you going to do something about it ?
I'm currently making a ticket so they can fix it
Crash them back
crashers crash crashers to not getting crashed. this game is a warzone at some points
how to not get crashed, ever :
- join a room
- use your crashers on the ground to crash the lobby
done
vr wars the crash wars
I never get crashed like this
my game mostly soft locks me in the loading screen
same
some guy like 3 years ago crashed my pc while blasting music and lagging people inside of vrchat while i was switching models
I just had an idea for how VRC can make money to get more moderators in game: monthly unity asset store subscriptions. Like 5$/month and you'd have access to a percentage of a store that has licenses for use on private avatars.
There could be different tiers too. You get more stuff the more you pay per month.
Each of these subscription assets could maybe have some kind of signature/key comment in it or something so that the SDK can detect it to prevent the asset fom being uploaded to an account without a subscription.
nah
It'd be to support content creators and the trust and safety team.
nah it's fine
before i pay for 3d models, i make them myself (not including avatars)
Great. With this idea, content creators would maybe get paid like Spotify, plus the standard licenses people would buy anyway to use in more than one project.
use safety settings 4head
#SvelisButt
Great. With this idea, content creators would maybe get paid like Spotify, plus the standard licenses people would buy anyway to use in more than one project.
@vocal shard
Content creators can get paid anyways. look at all the avatars being sold. Look at booth or gumroad. Hundreds of assets being sold. If avatar creators want to get money for their efforts there's ways.
So apparently even if you block nelafreya they can still crash everyone's game
yes cuz they use a modified client and they bypass the block
What about the moderation team? They need to get paid too. A subscription to an assets store could pay both the vr chat moderation team and content creators.
Maybe they could make partnerships with sketchfab, turbosquid and cgtrader some day too to get the assets into the unity store for subscribers.
Lots of crashes today. :c
?upload
You must obtain at least "New User" Trust Rank in our Trust and Safety system in order to upload content. You can get this by just spending a few hours in VRChat, hop some worlds, and make some friends. Give it some time and you'll be able to upload content in no time.
As an aside, you must have a VRChat account to upload content. That means you can't use a Steam account, Oculus account, or Viveport account to upload content like worlds or avatars.

Hello
This is a massive long shot. But if anyone is friends with a VRCHAT user who is a mute/speaking sign language and goes by "Plot" could you let me know. They're an old friend and I'd love to get back in contact
What about the moderation team? They need to get paid too. A subscription to an assets store could pay both the vr chat moderation team and content creators.
@vocal shard
The current team has been getting massive funding from HTC and other companies. Last year they secured 10 million according to Google. Before that was 4 million in 2017
VRC is a good platform to promote new headsets after all
does anyone rig models? i do drawings back as a digital artist i am
question, why does my desktop microphone bleed peoples ears on vrchat but not anywhere else?
apparently its makes a screeching noise or beeping on vrchat but else where its fine
question, why does my desktop microphone bleed peoples ears on vrchat but not anywhere else?
@rocky blaze you should outdate drivers
i had the same issue
yes, outdate your microphones drivers(software)
Heyy
hi
Hru
could make it less confusing and say "revert to an old version of the audio driver"
cause i have never heard of "outdate" something
but its up to date
I think it was a typo and they rolled with it
Yeah probably
vrchat is broken
i made my vrchat acc through oculus how do i log in
How do i know if i can start uploading avatars? i heard you need to be a blue user, idk where i can see if i am
i made my vrchat acc through oculus how do i log in
@keen root Steam and Oculus accounts can't log into the website or upload avatars. If you want to upload avatars you'll have to upgrade your account to a proper VRChat account. You can do this via the settings menu in-game.
will it keep my friends and avatars
Yes
is there any way to avoid crashing?
@vocal shard turn your safety settings up to max and avoid toxic public lobby hot spot worlds
yes thats good
I quickly learned behavioral patterns of crashers. Watch the people around you... You will find them.. some are blatant, but there are the coy verity too. Don't be fooled.
how do you use those mmd worlds?
like i wanna get my vrchat character to dance in it but idk how
It should just work automatically
If it doesn’t your avatar might not be humanoid (only humanoid avatars can play animations from the world) or perhaps it’s a avatar 3 avatar cuz chairs are broke for them right now
Try a different avatar
how do you get the camera to change?
Which?
Depends on the world really
Each world is made by a different person how they made it is how it works
So hard to say
Usually there’s just a start button
Wondering how they'll "fix" 2.0 chairs for 3.0 avatars.
Just a fallback override or what.
3.0 need to be told , okey im sitting now, are there an animator here i should use ?, no ? then i use my own , not expecting them to fix it for awhile
it can already detect sit so 🤷♂️
Old stations don't work with the new setup. I'd assume they'll rework stations to be universal in the future, when there's time for it.
§23. Do not ping Admins or VRChat Team for non-emergency reasons or you may be kicked from the server.
my frien lost his account and cant get it back
Hi everyone
it's been days now, how long do I have to be a visitor for?
today I spent the
w h o l e
day on vrchat, making friends and going around world's in hopes of ranking up, and I'm still just a visitor.
I dunno man, I'm kinda in that spot where I don't wanna play until I can use my own custom models but I can't use my custom models unless I play
that would be scary 😂
isther a fix for some one who is missing the examples folder form the sdk... i have tryed reinstalling it
Yo why do they make the servers worse with every update
@vocal shard It usually takes 3 days of playtime to reach New User.
At least, that's how long it took for me.
But if your ACTUALLY making friends, it'll probably be a bit faster for you.
thank you, @finite steppe
So out of nowhere I got on today and the youtube player isnt working at all
I have no Idea what to do to fix it
Ive tried re installing, verifing, replacing youtube dll
Hello, what would cause safety settings to go to the max? Is there some kind of new security feature to prevent crashes since the last update?
Pressing both menu buttons and triggers at the same time is the hotkey to activate safe mode
Or shift + esc on desktop
I didn't press shift + esc.
yeah youtube borked for me too, yet again
i broke VRC
i think the g suite thing that vrchat uses to manage their canny infected my account
bc it has some restrictions on utube from g suite and the only time i ever remember seeing it was when canny forums was under lockdown
anyone knows what's a good working special character to use for vrchat name
that will be invisible in game
cuz my name is taken and the special character i used doesn't work anymore
yo, frames have been AWFUL recently for me, anyone else?
(desktop), frames went from well over 100 down to sub 30, same worlds as in the past, no changes in computer hardware, no external programs
hmmm
halogen
name
updating my world and its extremely slow is it just me?
does anyone want to play?
hello
Is there anti anti-rip that works to protect my private avatars of being ripped?
I have been very stressed making an avatar in blender these weeks and just thinking how easy it is to rip an avatar in this game discourages me from using it, since I know many people who usually rip avatars.. anyone knows some software to protect it from some of those people? cuz i know that there was an anti-rip for blender and although it is true that you can keep ripping an avatar with that protection it makes it more difficult for some people
j
no
@hallow stump No way to do that because of unity
Hows everyone today
Good
he is right, although it's also true that ripping other people's work on vrchat is something very easy to do even for normal players, sadly
The way i see it, for example, if someone rips an avatar that cost money, they probably weren't going to pay for it anyways, so technically no money was lost.
Piracy is something you can't stop.
Or rather, avatar stealing in this case.
I think he was referring more to the fact that he doesn't want anyone to use his personal avatar, since he worked hard to make it, so i can understand him
TL;DR, don't put something on the internet if you don't want it to be stolen.
No? Why would it be pointless? Nothing really changed that would make it pointless
Playspace mover was supposed to make it where you can move your calibration and not the model but now the model always moves.
Was it really? I only used it to move myself around after I already calibrated
Muh valve index showed up 😄
Move yourself around?
Same here, never used it during calibration, just for moving around, it's always funny to just pop out from the ground to greet others
Hey guys what do you think of Pimax?
Move around for example if Im sitting or in a smaller avatar to get on head height with the other person
Become underground shark is also a viable option nico, very recommended
Ik I’ve done that too
Welp, time to start school :sleep:
may i question why vrchat just automaticly put me in safemode
theres a safe mode?
Yep
theres a safe mode?
For the past 2 years in fact.
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrchat-0120p13-dont-panic-edition
Well, I'm saving that link
What should I do when my charater's hair doesn't show up on the other side but it shows at different one?
Flip normals in blender
Ok.
Was there an update that automatically puts you in safe mode if people are spamming animations or shaders to prevent crashes? Cause I went into safe mode last evening without pressing Shift + Esc and it prevented me from getting crashed by badly optimized avatars other players were using.
Flip normals in blender
@potent fern How do I do this though? (Sorry I may not know some things in blender.)
I lost internet for 3 minutes in a world and suddenly i just cant join back, even though the game says i have several friends there and i made the instance, every time i join it is empty, any help would be greatly appreciated.
could someone help me out on # worlds-skd2. I would really appreciate it!
Can anyone help me out with Mixed reality? i tried using it In VR chat but im unable to move and it shows me using HTC Vive Controlers instead of mixed reality controlers
My Steam VR Shows me using WMR headset+controllers But VR chat doesnt like it :(
maybe because they use the same input mapping
I cant believe they removed vote kicking from vrchat cause they couldn't stop modders from force kicking.....
oh since when? I remember seeing an option that says kick yesterday.
who can boost for mee
do i schmell asking for free nitro?
oh, thought i had to get the holy macaroni hand grenade again
oh THANK GOD u did not pull out
@potent fern you have the option but it never works and hasnt been for awhile
Its sad honestly
Bruv
?
If it can be rendered, it’s already on your computer and can be saved. There is no way to prevent this, at all. Not by users, not by devs.
huh
Unless a game uses cloud streaming a video feed it will always be possible
what r u talking about
we are talking about how vote kick doesnt work cause the devs removed it
yet the option is still visible ingame
Than its likely a bug or something server related, rather than "something the devs removed"
should i get quest 2
Same as how lately I've been having trouble loading into worlds
the devs did remove it
because they couldnt stop force kicking
There was no mention of it being removed in the change log therefore it’s a bug. report it on Canny if you can reproduce it
its not a bug lol
OK then don’t report it if it doesn’t bother you
?
Where are you getting your information 
Can't jump to conclusions just because something isn't working
i tried it myself
i tried too and it works
so you are wrong
what now ?
prove it lol
It’s unintended, but it’s not a bug unless it bugs you. You seem to be complaining about it so I’m pretty sure you consider it a bug even if you don’t think it is 😀
I can assure you it is
record u vote kicking someone it wont work
I'm not going to go kick a random guy playing to prove something to you
A bug is an unintended behavior that is not desired
because it doesnt work
you are wrong by saying they removed it and that's all there is to it
There's been some issues lately with requests not going though. Friends list, joining invites. Probably the same thing
Not an intented removal of the feature. Just a bug
vote kick doesnt work and hasnt been show me proof rn
Unintended behaviors that are undesirable are bugs.
Unintended behaviors that aren’t undesired are just happy accidents.
Intended behaviors that are undesired are annoying features.
Intended behaviors that are desired are a myth.
is the quest 2 better than 1
Yea
unintended behaviors that are intended are features
is it worth it tho
@autumn relic they're both trash get a valve index
how much money is the valve x
index is worth it
1000
1 grand
if you dont have a pc then quest 2 is fine
For only the price of 299 usd and a human soul? Worth I guess
i broke tho
quest is super uncomfortable
i got 500.01
very front heavy
dollars
if you have a vr ready pc, save a bit more and get the reverb g2 then
I have the quest one, it’s uncomfortable by default you really need a counterweight and then it’s perfectly fine
plus u would be wasting ur time on vrchat if u only have a quest cause most people have pc avatars and no one will want to sacrifice their avatar for a quest one
i bought accessories for the quest and it feels just fine
i have a laptop
@vocal shard if you play on quest and build your friendbase around it, it's fine
will that effect games
quest isnt a good idea for vrchat thats all im saying
Going back from PC VRC to Quest is a harder step.
I can guarantee you that VR is probably not going to work on your laptop
yeah vrchat on quest sucks
Quest is totally fine for VRC aswell, especially when starting out with it.
f
ur just a vrc fan boy
it crashes every 10 minutes
its not good on vrc so
i hated vrc on quest
VRchat on quest is terrible don’t even get a quest in the first place unless you’re going to plug it into a gaming PC and use the PC versions
Do you have and use a Quest for VRC? @vocal shard
made desktop look like an upgrade
i wanna play vrc but i also like aother games to like super hot and beatsaber
i did its trash
quest is you get what you pay for
ortspoon just save up and dont get a quest
Why do i doubt it.
*
and thats a mediocre headset at best
Like if you get a quest 2 and a link cable and play it on a gaming PC the visuals are probably going to look better than an index. For less than half the price. But there are downsides
Rift S is a discontinued product
@autumn relic do you have a pc?
its not that easy with looks, FoV is also a big part
res is not everything on a headset, when do people realize it?
Used, yes.
not used
I have both a quest and an index and while field of view is very nice, raw resolution is preferable. that sharp distance vision is everything, especially in a social game.
fpaul pls dont say the quest is good for vrc i get that u love vrc so much to the point of actually getting mod role for discord but the quest for vrc is trash
I think you are confusing the quest version of Vrchat with using a quest to play the PC version @vocal shard
That is your opinion
vrc on quest is just not good. dont defend it,
fpaul what headset do u have
i mean eddie vr uses the quest right
i dont think so
It's absolutly still a experience over no experience.
If you are in a PC userbase it's not really a thing to go back to since you already have a way higher measurement, but starting out and building your whole friendbase around it it's still an option.
so it shouldnt be that bad
It's never gonna be perfect, yet it's also not unsuably trash as you make it sound.
fpaul dont ignore the question what headset do u got
@autumn relic i think eddievr uses the valve
idk
What's up peeps

ikea
also eddie vr uses index
people shitting on vrc on quest, as usual
i just thought cuz if u look at his pfp on youtube he has a headset and it says oculus
Eh? Don't choose a headset based just on what a popular person uses
@ruby needle what headset u use dude
you ever just- get discriminated for having a lower rank?
Quest playing the PC version of VR chat is pretty much on the same level as using an index. Index has slightly higher Field of view. But it isn’t “more than twice the price” better field of view.
Unless fullbody is your goal I recommend quest link over index.
rankcism
It doesn't matter what i use, rather what i already tried and had experience with.
I mean, it's pretty normal, lebby
If you are purple rank, you are above the others
that's the whole point of the system duh
vrchat fix vote kick already
"his name tag isn't purple, that means he's stupid lol"
And if it wasn't for facebook... Quest 2 would be a very good option. Since the ability to connect to pc is much better now and you get higher resolution than index and higher refresh than rift s for $299.
But the Facebook thing is annoying
exactly
does orange mean trusted or known user?
a visitor is so low on the bar, that by default, he can only use his voice and has everything else disabled
ok then im known
next step would be veteran for me probably
?
that rank that doesnt get shown and is only visible with some special API commands
its pretty much as useless as aqua
I don't want veteran to come back. Don't need more ego boost
resurrect the MC 3+ times
get called useless
moar ranks
