What’s the current unity version vrchat is using?
Is anybody else having trouble joining worlds and switch avatars. When I try to change it just shows an error bot but my friends can see the avatar and it won’t let me leave the vrc home world. Does anyone know how to fix it?
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/current-unity-version This doc shows current version and is updated whenever we change versions.
The current Unity version in use by VRChat is Unity 2018.4.20f1.

thanks i’ll book mark that
thank you.
I'd recommend following this guide: https://help.vrchat.com/kb/article/17-i-crashedcant-launch-vrchatother-issues/ and if issues continue, reach out to our Support Team here: https://help.vrchat.com/new/
omg spark is vrchat team uwu
Thank you I’ll check it out
Spark is slowly becoming the most active team member in the discord
wonder when we will get back reactions, they got disabled during the whole lemon deal but never got re-enabled
hello
Greetings!
@golden scaffold is the vrc team based in the us or all over the world?
gotta ask tupper, probably forgot
as much as i like to believe that they all just live in the server room, pretty sure the team is spread out all over
We work remotely. 🙂
So, anywhere.
^ fake, the vrc team lives in the server room

cool!
that would explain all the down time and scuff
tupper dropping coffee on the switches smh
@golden scaffold currently working on the ui concept its looking more like the ui the team is building atm but i have a few different takes on itbut would you like to see a wip?
Oh does anyone know how to soften edges in blender?
soften edges?
make them curved
yes!
In CSS it's border
scruffy coding avatars in css 
OMFG i love bevels @cold talon thank you!
bevels are pretty much a must for hard surface, makes everything look better
just dont go mad with power, or you will wake up to 100k topo 
Mad with bevels muhahaha
bevel modifier 👀

bevels go brrr
lol
can somebody help me in #user-support-old
no
D:
Oof
hi
Greetings!

Anyone here with a 30-series nvidia card? If anyone here exists with this gen of card - have you noticed significant framerate loss since last update?
@tawny ore if the card is related at all, try to update your video drivers
Oh the issue is specific to rendering 3.0 avatars
I just wonder if it's specific to this architecture or it's the rendering engine of VRC
Are they working on an anti crash? Like I'm obviously not going to modify my game but at the same time I don't want to play vrchat grey mode and I don't want to be crashed I'm just hoping they introduce a anti crash I was crashed like eight times today
@hidden olive I don't think you've been crashed, I mildly suspect the client has been unstable since last few updates.
No trust me this is generally how it goes I hear "a user from insert gang name here has joined your lobby" and then I get a instant crash with a PNG stuck on my screen generally saying something racist
In your safety settings disable all custom animations for all ranks
I only allow friends and trusted but they are using some sort of client to fake boost up to trusted
Especially disallow trusted users
You can always show animations if someone requests just by using "show avatar" in menu
I don't know I think it would just be nice if they put anti crash in the game
^
Aye, but we can only work with what we have.
I know they're always being bugged about optimization so I can understand if they are stressed
It is unfortunate though to go into a Lobby and hear someone say they had to mod their client with an anti crash though
Im just here to say that im upset that my name got fucked up in the update. Thats all, feel my pain.
I don't know the name plates just kind of bother me
Makes it harder for me to judge a user's intentions when they join
Oh yes, I agree
I've been playing since late 2017 so that's my most useful skill kind of sucks to not be able to is it anymore
I haven't played VRchat in awhile, but looking at some recent streams those nameplates seem like terrible updates
I dont like them at all, Its cool that you can change the size and all thou. But the rest is kinda ass. I have a star like here, in my name.
It is now replaced with a small wierd little circle
Yeah like before I never had problems with Crashers because I could quickly identify who it was just by looking at name plates instantly but now I can't do that
The worst part is sometimes It Isn't the visitors
To be honest user is the new visitor
Yeeh, i havent really figured the nameplates out yet. They are strange
Sometimes a degenerate Trusted user will weaponize their ability to crash users
well yeah ofc
What determines when and if a world gets out of labs
Yeah that makes me sad when I see that like clearly you put time into this game
Didn't happen to me but I encountered one that admitted crashing people he didn't like
Yeah people like that just make me angry
Hello im new here 😄
Hello
I published my world to labs and it's taking longer than my previous worlds despite having double the views almost 600 when I got my last one public
I wish I got that guy's screenname
There will always be toxic people in every game, crashers are usually also rippers and have that whole dumb community
what do you mean by crashers?
I don't even have a single crasher lol
Degenerates that make your computer Blue-screen
Anybody else experience the Crasher in the great pug where you get teleported between all the seats really quickly and then you get crashed to steam VR
Or possibly eject your GPU
sorry im new to VR chat recent got it on my quest :p
I'd love to see them make my GPU yeet itself right out of my PC 🤣
Lol, no. But I don't visit public worlds really anymore.
Well... Not literally
Like honestly, if they can physically make my GPU pop out I'm not even mad. That's impressive.
I'm glad my computer is safe from that due to the parts I use
Apparently the black cat has a board frying gang problem
It's where it stops working and you have to restart your computer to use any 3D program
im glad i havent ran into a toxic person yet
I'm mostly in private worlds anyways so i don't meet these people
I don't have enough friends in the game to play privates
Toxic community has gone too far in the game honestly. There are so many creators leaving vrchat. Dont get me started on the whole ripper website that is still in progress and none can take down
Eventually on Public worlds you'll find one
I've like 140 friends
Im mostly in friends +
i have some friends but different regions mess up play times with each other
Private worlds are boring to me 🤷♂️ id rather be in friends + and meet some people
Then too many people are joining
i always end up finding friends on this karaoke world its funny
I miss the days when the trolls I encountered were mostly people who stole your pens
Ah yes
those were the days
I don't like lobbys with more than 5-8 people. I tend to be mute if that number exceeds.
i didnt read any rules with avatars btw what type of skins are a risk of a ban?
nakid avis lmao
Time to read
https://hello.vrchat.com/community-guidelines
oh thanks lol
tldr: don't be a jerk, don't mod and keep everything sfw
i just read it people cheat in this game :LUL:
fair enough but still what do you gain from cheating in this game?
seems dumb
Well that discussion is not very liked here
People 'cheat' in vrc because they lack meaning in their lives and need some way to feel validated.
Kinda sad really.
fair enough
New nameplates made it difficult to different between people using fly mods and playspace mover
oh? I havent seen this
Since the nameplates are now moving while flying up with playspace mover too
ooooooooh
ah ok
havent even noticed that haha
Easy to notice if you've a lot of friends with mods and playspace mover
Personally dont like the portrait thing but that might just be a personal thing too.
Portrait?
the icon
Ah
vrchat+
Well i don't have that
Mostly cause I already see people being gross with it
Taking pics of... things u dont wanna see and put there 8)))
Luckily they're togge-able via safety
sucks that Vrchat+ isnt supported on the quest yet
And are subject to the same rules as avatars, so if you see someone with a vrc+ icon that ain't okay do grab a screenshot of it and report it #moderation-reports
Well it kind of is but you need to purchase it on steam
There is also a report option under report user
Action is more likely to be taken with a report that has evidence of wrongdoing.
Idk, pictures doesn't seem very good for proof for me
Easily fake-able
There are mods where you can change people's name. Oops, innocent person punished.
With VRC+, do you get trust level each billing month or only once?
only once it seems
and its only a small boost
from what i understand, you lose that boost when you don't sub
yeah, its not a permanent boost if I understand it right
Nope the boost stays
From the qna: "For a limited time, we’ll give you a special VRCat badge on your profile! You’ll keep it even if you decide to stop your VRChat Plus support. In addition, you’ll receive additional VRC+ time!"
isn't that talking just about the special badge?
Uuu yeah
Copied the wrong part
😄
Had to scroll down to the What happens when my subscription runs out? Part.
There it says you keep it
it boosts you to trusted i believe
If you got like an new acc it should boost you to the upload rank from what devs said
👍
pay 2 win
pay to win?
Says mr special api tag
what do you win? loosing respect?
TRUE
you get a free block from me
Ouch lol
also 🤫 oclac
i generally assume that people with vrc+ are not the rank they appear as
I usually identified people by nametag color just by looking. Is there anyway to change it to where I can do that again? I want to know where my friends are without looking at tiny text or opening my menu
Unfortunately not from what I know
@lucid sandal you can make them bigger and change the background to transparent
That helps a fair bit
ya know whats funny though, seeing vrc+ people with hacked clients
that's actually dumb
Indeed it is
have not seen one myself, but that is ironic
Ive seen like 3
sneak 100
Most are dumb tho
yeah but when they fly through the wall to mute you ya kinda know
lmao
Why cant I add friends
Well yes but if they are just using unlimited avatar slots for example then it’s almost impossible for you to know if they are using a modded client or not
Oh that's how people were going faster than me. I wish that was an actual feature. 
Pay £200 and you’ll be able to run faster with VRChat++
Keep in mind they are muting me for talking to my friends and they require pure silence to sit in front of a mirror
Ah yes mirror dwellers... my fav
theyre jaelous of your sexy voice
Oh definitely
xD
can't talk in front of a mirror dude
it breaks immersion
Oh heck you're right
i find myself being jelly over peoples voices pretty often
Imagine not looking at people when your talking
I find myself scaring people sometimes with my voice range
imagining
WDYM !?
you have a nice voice

Kawaii
yes
i have an ok voice, nothing good, nothin too bad
I prefer worlds with no mirrors
but im not here to brag
i am
my voice can go from average male to female named Britney at any moment.
lmao
Impressive....?
i almost died a few days ago when someones mic echoed and i heard myself for the first time
good for you 
what voice do I have ghosto
I don't even know
people never comment on my voice, only my accent
its a man voice
thats your voice then
i confuse the shit out of people with my accent
ooh leme guess
I did
earth
😠
sshh
sigh
cricket noises
josh gang rise up
Soon there won't be
anyone single dm me pls i am looking for a relationship no guys pls dont ban me
hey bro my uncle is single if ya want me to get you his contact info.
Hi Logannnn
if you wanna visit him tho you gotta wait till wednesday, the prison only has one visiting day sadly
the one and only!
the logan?
the logan
What have you been telling people about me?
woah wolvorene
What an honour
Do you need to go in the cage again?
do the adamantium thing
wtf
LMAO
I was telling them that people think you're a girl a lot even though your username is literally Logan
its a unisex name
logan is a girl name and a boy name and a (whatever your personal choice is) name
That it is.
I mean true but.. like.. how many women have you met named Logan... I've met only one
Yeah.. it’s not common that’s for sure
i've more more female logans irl than male logans irl
same, i didnt even know it can be female
hey people of vrchat what do you think the top guild would be if vrchat had guilds?
some anime guild
Uhhh guilds? You mean like groups right? Depends on what you’re interested in
Grinder probably
We've had a few in the past. Kanna Gang, Loli Army, etc
lpd?
ha
loli police department
oh right that thing
Yup
group that goes around role playng police officers
dont forget about the Universal Union
It’s annoying tbh
we do the same but authoritarian government
the what sorry
Universal Union, we are a vrchat rp group focused around the Combine from Half life
oh half life ... right ive totally played that game >_>
I know of this since... I was the emperor at the beginning stages
I left though, got too toxic
Docter who?
Chara was it the first dalek war?
god i do love a bit of docter who
the magic of that show, the blue box
just argh so good
Bigger on the inside Baby!
yeah that was during the crobat era, I wasn't there for that one
since then though, the second one was very fun imo
all of time and space where do you want to go
theose magical words one day i wish to hear
disney
i choose disney
oh also if you havent played half life, Id still suggest playing Half life alyx
does anyone here have vrchatplus i just have a quick question
id choose doctor who over disney anyday, while disney is fun it doesnt beat all of time and space not to mention the journey of a lifetime
ask away
A mad man with a box
thanks
yeah but hear me out
am going to when i get round to it
you are gonna love it
off to #general-media with you 2
I'm pretty sure they're looking at community groups in the UI revamp.
come on though who wouldnt wana see all of time and space
so i wanna get it but i was about to buy it and it says i am agreeing to paying monthly which is not what i wanna do i just wanna pay for 1 month how would i make it so i just pay for a single month and not automatiically pay for more months
wait w h a t?
how amazing would that be
do you believe your brain could be able to remember every thing youve seen?
uuh, cant you select not to repeat payment when you pay in steam?
youd have to see everything faster than you could perceive it so you could see it all before you die
but can i cancel it?
pay for vrc+ and then cancel the subscription
dont be a buzz kill whats wrong with the conversation
alright cool
but do i need to cancel it once the month ends or two months as i get a month free
it not being related to vrchat 
but its fun
-_-
Agreed!
but yeah why disney over time and space? @royal vine
eh its fun
which part of disney though theres so many properties
no i just really like starwars
ah!
actually space technology is what i want to work on for a living eventually
to be able to travel it in any capacity would be amazing
really like NASA?
I got accepted to my first choice college about a week ago for Astronautical engineering
Congratz
Their most recent launch was CRS-21 yesterday
oh what was that cargo?
the Crew-1 mission was a few weeks ago
yes CRS-21 was cargo to the ISS
the Commercial Resupply Service
yeah thought they might have done a cargo run after a launch considering theres more people
yeah gonna need them too
nah they do cargo launches every few months just to keep it supplied
i suppose they would other wise they starve but what do they do with all the waste?
send it back
surely not throw it into space?
well they do actually
oh send it back smart
D:
for some few things they just release it
where it then burns up in about a month
remember the space station is very low so the atmosphere still affects it
burn up from the atmosphere?
they have to boost it up every month or so
yes, the trash slows down, then falls back and burns up
damn didnt know it was that close to earth
its only around 250 miles
ooh wow thats quite close
how would they be able to sustain gravity if they lost orbit though
what?
not vrchat related 😔
topics that arent related to vrchat are always being talked about in here anyway
and i dont see anyone else here talking about vrchat stuff so we arent interrupting anyone
and everytime a mod is there will also tell people to go somewhere else
you are interrupting my very calm vrchat channel with your off topic talk 😔
Vrchat: has good game but half broken game
Vrchay employee: "hmmm- instead of fixing it LETS RELEASE MICRO TRANSACTIONS!!!"
vrchat: breaks game even more
yah I've been warned multiple times for talking about non-vrc stuff outside of random
lmao seriously space is a bad topic for vrchat?
wait why are you here i dont see a mirror anywhere?
"everyone is doing something wrong so i can do this too" 
so you guys if im gonna get warned i'll make sure u do too 😠 @tropic condor come warn them
Wtf that's not who I pinged
lmao who the fuck
lmao you pinged that nerd @tropic condor
hes random pinging'
I literally typed 'Mod'
lmfao
How did it ping earth
LMAO they pinged the earth
did you try and ping the entire mod team
The entire world
The planet shall destroy you 😠
you just tried to ping the whole wide world
Anyway, have you heard of the black cat? Very nice world
thats funny af
There was a dude here named Mod I kept pinging as a joke, I guess he got upset and left the server
Earth lookin kinda THICC~~
you will be over run by angry people ith ping emojies in a matter of seconds
it is
you can see a lot of interesting stuff there
I go on there with my quest and my uganda avatar sometimes
oh no
did he actually leave ?
You pinged him out of the vrchat discord
I scared Mod away 😦
XD
so toxic that we made a bot leave, nice
dear neptune
yin is just trying to make friends in vrchat discord epic server 
I will miss Mod's derpy anime face
gone but not forgotten
just ping svel next time, he's an undercover mod
ping the owners of discord themselves
bad idea
good idea
yep
Yang won't bully me
I'm too cute for that, ghosto
how cute?
he scores an 8 on the richter scale

i am 17 also pls dm me
Yus, had a ton of fun there last night.
lmfao
Found 12 people on the downstairs performance stage with tomato soup can avatars doing shtick. Obviously joined them. 20 minutes of soup/tomato/food puns ensued.
Vrchat is a magical place.
way too young, honey
better luck next time
okay 😦
anyone single dm me pls i am looking for a relationship no guys pls dont ban me i am 17 i like anime and videogames and more
This is probably one of the worst and unconventional ways one could try and form a relationship with another person.
prob yes
i need help shows my rift s controller in the floor i have rest the software and controllers what can i do to fix this
Does it happen on SteamVR and other games or only VRChat?
it happens in every vr app i open
Make sure your correct real height is set when setting up your guardian
It has nothing to do with the headset, but if you are looking for a reason they won’t question it
It is possible one of the batteries is dead?
It is also possible it is not paired
i have tried unpairing and repair both
they should be like new batteries ill try others tho
It is possible the controller is faulty
It is very unlikely anything is wrong with the headset
According to a reddit post from 2 years a user had this exact problem and found that doing a full setup of the controller and headset again fixed the issue for them. It's possible the controller is faulty though that chance is fairly low.
So nametags have this odd middle-distance where they temporarily stop changing size with distance and it doesn’t feel right https://streamable.com/jsyp55
if i pay vrc, i want european server lol
It’s all on amazon and valve servers I would assume that to already be the case
Even if they are the host?
Im constantly at 190 ping and im in America
so its worlwide bad
Yeah I am pretty sure the high ping is not related to server distance
@languid beacon Hosted content isnt the same as the server of the room itself--
I think your mixing up those two
simp mode activated: anyone single dm me pls i am looking for a relationship no guys pls dont ban me i am 17 like anime and videogames
Yeah that would effect load times and menu response but nothing outside of that
repeating the signals across the world does add a tiny bit of latency in the form of hops
Yeah but that’s Distance between players not distance from your nearest server
Also keep in mind, your playing a game that provides live tracking of multiple users in one instance with close to 'perfect' voice over internet while the whole rooms gets synced with each player.
The networking is like impressive as fuck for an game like this on this scale.
You could have a valve server right next to your french house, it’s not going to let you play with americans any faster
I feel like network IK and voice are delayed by whichever has more latency so that audio and motion still syncs up
Nah voice is a bit slower always so far i noticed
would anybody be interested in giving me some feedback on something im working on right now?
I’ve done audio/video tests and other people always see my motions match my voice
Tupper said the networked IK was like sub 50MS range in most cases.
So if there is a network IK delay, voice is delayed as well
no? :C
is there anyone with baby yoda avatar?i got it but forgott to save it
Talking and expressing with your hands at the same time would look wrong otherwise
yo, i saw some random dude having tyler1 and Vladimir Putin avatar, how do I get them?
upload'em or find'em in a world
do u know the world name?
its the rum ham avatar world I think
when you launch vrchat hold left shift then you should get option menu
Alt+Enter also works to get fullscreen.
HI
hello
i just had an idea
there should be instead of quest only avatars and pc only avatars the quest only defaults to both pc and quest compatible avatars
This is impossible, Windows cannot load android binaries, android cannot load Windows binaries.
If it was possible there would not be two platforms in the first place
what about the custom avatars people make
it would make everything irrelevent
It’s not a bad idea it just can’t happen
VRChat can’t use what you haven’t given them
You can’t take a Windows build and turn it into an android build, you need the original unity project and only the creator has that
does anyone else have the problem that they can't favorite avatars because the avatar just says "unfavorite"
well you could but for the amount of avatars loaded on a regular basis it would be near impossible
You can’t because you do not send VRChat your unity projects
if there was a upload and download avatar function i could see it working but then again space is a huge concern
yes im aware
thats why i said the above statement
You couldn’t download avatars either unless you sent your unity project
Otherwise you’d just get the build and need to decompile it
Ugly sloppy process
i am getting a new pc around xmas and i want to play vrc. does anyone have something that i need to know?
For non-VR?
you upload the project through vrchat anyway so whats to stop them from uploading the unity asset project instead of just the avatar
yes
yes Specs are very important
can i see what pc youre getting?
You don’t want to upload your project. You can if you want to, that’s what future proofing publish does. But you don’t want to.
if you want to play vr with it its real important
its a ryzen 5 2600x, 16gb ram and a rtx 2060
oh you might be able to use vr decently
i think although i dont really understand amd
i use NVidia
only thing is that vr headsets are a bit expensive :(
save up my dude
its what i did and may other have
If you want the cheapest headset that is still worth it’s price, Quest 2, $299.
nvidia doesnt make cpu's tho 🤔
Any cheaper than that is not worth it
no, bad facebook
Comes with the cheap price tag
Intel i9 cpu
oh yeah what is up whith facebook bc i saw people saying that?
I don’t recommend a rift S due to the awful mic, and other options are far more expensive
facebook can lock away your games if they so wish
they are locking their vr behind facebook login
That’s why you buy them on steam
Valve can do the same?
Quest 2 can play steam games just fine, no need to buy from facebook’s store
if you dont meet their requirments or if they think youve broken their tos they will fuck over your headset
agreed
but then you cant play wireless
Yes you can
Yeah, virtual desktop and ALVr both allow wireless pc gaming
imagine half life on the oculus i'd be dead within 10 minutes
Not for long yeah of course because the battery sucks but that’s the same playing natively or via pc
Other headsets are wired anyway
but then why buy the quest might as well save for the index
or wait for the decagear
Using a quest 2 with a wired connection is no big deal
Every other headset is wired
it is if you break your cable
That’s the same for every headset?
is the difference between wireless and wired big?
sure but the indexs cable is designed with that in mind
Only other headsets capable of wireless is those who have deep pockets willing to pay for the HTC wireless adapters.
so its much sturdier
Wireless has video compression (artifacting) and a small bit of visual latency
nah i dont recommend it youll have to spend 10 hours waiting for shit to charge and get an hour or 3 outta it
might as well plug it in
When I had a quest I connected it to pc with a wired the freedom to turn around without a cable was not worth the latency and image reduction
Hence why I said deep pockets If one is rich they would probably buy several.
Also the quest has a trash battery and I don’t like playing games while feeling like I’m on a timer
yeah unfortunately their are only a few people who can do that
cant wait till another company makes a wireless headset
hoping its valve if im honest
or at least an official adaptor
coz if its only facebook ima fly away from that as fast as i can
lmao
Wireless is never going to be as good as wired
maybe in the future but not yet
If you care about high resolution and framerate and low latency you want a wired connection
sorry i really dislike facebook for locking the oculus behind facebook like its recentment y'know
i cant help it coz oculus was doing so well
then they done fucked up
bugs the shit outta me
Please gabe gib wireless index
No, we are already at the physical limit. Wireless bandwidth isn’t getting any better
the dream though
and a tesla suit
ah that combo would be amazing
Then you wear the computer.
oh yeah one more question. does vrchat use a lot of wifi?
bc my wifi is like trash trash
yeah
Yes or you risk a very poor experience.
Yes you will want any a wired connection
Everything on the game is online so yes
i had bad wifi at my old place and it was not great at all
VRChat is super bandwidth intensive as everything is streamed
shit man
more like a nauseating experience
Adeon even the 6ghz? Not sure what the data through put is though.
do i really have to use an ethernet cable or are wifi extenders fine?
I would use an ethernet cable.
Can be run on wifi , but wouldnt even try it on a 2.4
i mean i have a wifi router and that does fine
Looks like 6g is 1000 times faster than 5g?
u on 5ghz?
i havent tried my lan connection though it might be even better
i should try that
6G isnt an actual thing though so far
6Ghz isnt the same as 6g
XD
China only one i heard of thats trying 6g
It’s good enough for video resolutions today (though it still needs to be compressed even then) but the future of vr is retinal and that’s well past what can pass through the air. The future of vr, If it is wireless, means good portable computing that you wear. Air is and always will be a bottleneck.
Coreect 6g os 95ghz
select your wifi thingy on the bottom right and click properties en there u will find it i think
Im using 5ghz with vrchat around 866.7mbps through 2 really thick walls
Tpcast uses 5G for wireless vive
190ms~ to vrchat usually but im in eu so 🤷♂️ thats normal
I am currently on 20mb/s.....but i dont have any wifi extenders or so and i use 2,4ghz
oh yeah im on 5ghz
running a download of 56 mbps
and i have no trouble running vrchat
although i have a powerful pc
so that would probally explain it
can give the specs if ya like
sure
I’ve never seen vr on a laptop work well
lets see I'm running on:
16gb of Ram,
64-bit,
an I9-9900k processor,
and a 2080ti graphics card
And i dont think you will ever see that
damn thats a nice pc
laptops gaming or not arent ment for VR ever
theyre to sell to the average consumer
yea thats true. So thats the reason im getting a pc
Oh it will. Eventually. I mean, Quest 2 does vr on a onboard mobile cpu. So it’s absolutely possible.
Got a few thats using wmr and laptop , they will never got a crowded world (probably shouldnt)
yeah but overheating is a big problem
Quest 2 has no overheating issues
how hot does the quest get after heavy use
Only decent VR headsets that work well with Gaming laptops is the Rift S. Of course you need to buy a cooling pad and probably a USB hub.
the rift s isnt worth the price
imagine you get burn marks bc of your vr headset
might as well save for an index at that point
I do not recommend rift S at allll
Especially not for VRChat
Unless you want people to constantly complain about your microphone
I felt that
Rift S works if you're willing to spend upwards of 700$ USD like I did to fix its issues.
yeah the rift s was like hey we know you want a vr headset before we launch are new wireless vr headset so heres a half assed attempt
Or buy two and a half quests
bruh my new pc is like worth 800
whats wrong with people just wait a little longer untill you can afford the index
ive never heard of index tho
Index cant be bought here, import 1000$+
They might lack a source of income or a powerful PC.
Index is a great headset, it’s the one I have, but it is not worth its price tag. There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s just a bad deal
where abouts in the middle of nowhere do you live?
true but its worth the wait i believe
Norway, they are scared of consumer laws
norway interesting
If the price tag of the index is nothing to you, sure, get an index. But visuals wise quest 2 is just as good. Just a trading lower FoV for sharper image
Can buy a vr here and return it within 60 days no question asked why
where do yall live btw? just curious
woah woah no it isnt
talk about overselling the quest
For me to buy the Index and run it without problems I would have to spend upwards of 2000$ USD since I'm not going to buy used hardware.
Quest 2 has higher resolution than index, you didn’t know that?
Quest 2 does have better visuals than the index and better lenses
Index dont really interest me nor is it the best on lenses anymore
And I say that as someone who's upset when oculus rn and prefers index
you sure?
Oh yeah I prefer index because screw Facebook but there is no denying quest 2 looks sharper
It’s literally resolution. It has more pixels. This isn’t an opinion thing lol
index 1440x1600 vs 1832x1920 (quest2)
Index is actually on the low end now for resolution on consumer vr
Funny how fast that changes
i mean im always thinking about the quest in the back of my mind why not get a quest its wireless but nah man i hate facebook im not gonna buy into it
g2 2160x2160
No one blames you
its so tempting though
If it wasn't for facebook, I would have gotten a quest 2
Don’t get a Facebook headset just because at this exact moment in time they have the best display and lenses. That’s not going to last forever.
same
rez isn't everything tho. 
FoV on the other hand
agreed the finger tracking is great on the index side
Index still seems like the best balance overall.
Fov, tracking, refresh rate
FOV. 👌
fov isn't gonna be much of a downgrade if you have no HMD to begin with 
i really cant wait untill valve reveals a new VR HMD
Pimax on the other hand proves that fov alone doesn't mean a good experience
Look I’m just a big Facebook hater like any other but if Facebook comes out with a headset with greater FoV than index, and a better resolution than index, with the price point of a quest 2, Zucc can have all of my data
Absolutly not, if the rest is bad ofc
But as an overall factor i think FOV is what i'd value the most.
nah fam no chance i dont care how long i have to wait im not buying into the 101 facebook data vr landscape
Since it is the most important part of how "real" it feels like beeing "in the room"
FOV isnt everything you guys know that right
Price to performance combined with actual decent business practices is what I go for.
it its under 1000 im willing to save for a new HMD and controller set
when it comes out
but the decagear is looking like a promising option
not to high not to low
Decagear is still sus
but a middle ground for the company and customer
i dont disagree
Although they are raising their price after the initial launch. So that adds a little bit of credibility
oh how much?
A few hundred
really damn so itll be like the index
Closer to reverb g2
yeah i thought the 599 price point was a set point
I guess a couple hundred. $450-$650
damn i have to rethink
oh no its not lower that 500
the price from what i know is 599
Right now it's "pre-order for $450" in their website
That's what got everyone talking in the first place
I would gladly drop resolution in favor of more FoV. In fact, I did, when I got a Index
FoV is everything imho
Give me a blurry mess that takes up my whole vision and we are gravy
To a degree i agree with you. Like I much prefer the odyssey+ with its 115° fov and soft diffused screen over my rift s which was sharp and had much better lenses, but 94° fov
FOV is the most important facor BUT the rest needs to be in suitable range aswell
I just can’t downgrade. I tried using a quest after index and it’s like looking into toilet paper tubes
only high FOV with a crappy base is garbage aswell
True but I don’t see headsets ever being released with an unusually lower than standard resolution. But new headsets come out with “great new resolution but crap FoV” all the time
Or like pimax, which has good fov and resolution, but the panels are cheap and washed out, and the lenses are known for distortion. Also they apparently have bad binocular overlap
I don’t wear glasses so I have index shoved right against my eyeballs which puts it around mid-range pimax FoV
Yeah I’ve had bad binocular overlap on DK2. Its not fun
Anything close up makes you go crosseyed
Bad for social
The DK2 lenses tho 
and constant dust since they're removable and stuff keeps getting inside
then theres me over here still using my gen 1 oculus works like a charm still even though the headstrap snapped and i rigged it up to stay on again XD
still blacks out every now and again but as long as i dont jerk to much or crazy movements its usually fine
has memory leakage been fixed already?
Can’t say I’ve experienced any session length dependent performance loss
it's noticeably better
IIRC RAM is only a problem if you don't move worlds
The game does garbage collection during world loading, so without loading a world it will gradually fill up. Not sure how they would do the garbage collection otherwise as it almost guarantees a hang
simp mode activated: anyone single dm me pls i am looking for a relationship no guys pls dont ban me i am 17 like anime and videogames
MINOR
bro your too young. try VRChat home worlds 
LMAOOOO
Hello FBI
yikes
oh cmon that was pog
People are here for help with issues not looking for hookups lol

hi guys sorry for asking but does anyone have an avatar of a girl wearing a cat onesie tht has a gun on it ..i cnt find tht avatar anymore >....<
theres literally like a billion avatars out there that fit that discription sadly
there are probably 100s of those ngl
Sadly I can't help with that since I have never used those types of avatars.
i ve spent all day on avatar worlds lookin for it ); i have the pic of her but i see i cnt share media on here ?
Can u cancel vrc plus if u want to ?
Yes.
Artemis can I add you ?
Ok thank u
Why? o.O
Typically people here ask for advice or help.
Not playing vr chat
I joined this because I wanted to see if I can find some people to play with
Public worlds, though.
Ohhh im literally dumb 🤣🤣🤣@sharp saddle
I just noticed the menu banner for VRC+ shrank (finally).
But still do you wanna add me
Sorry, no. I don't know you. 
Visit some public worlds.
Ok
anyone else having server issues? audio is cutting off on everyone and now after restart i cant even join my homeworld
Last night I couldn't friend ppl the friends system was messed up
Seems to be working now.
vr chat.exe does not respond...
that's a crash then. not server issues
Started from server issues, left game, cant get it to go past the first blue loading screen. i know what a crash looks like
3rd times the charm right.
gonna try
yep
now it works
Hope plus gifting is out before the holiday vacation
nvm... tried to leave home world and now im stuck
my character travelled to my friends but my soul is stuck at home.
man if only this worked in real XD
im just a ghost stuck in spawn with no body to call my own XD
hello
??
ye idk
Imagine not being able to get VrChat plus on Oculus Quest ;-;
Is it just me or is VRchat just gmod with extra steps
just you
just you
so when are we getting the old, not trash name tags back? never? cool.
I can’t imagine anyone would prefer the gigantic old tags
I don’t get it personally
The old font was terrible and dated really.
I just like how they follow you when you move your play space so no more intersecting
holy crap the nameplates look so much better
Right?
Try setting the transparency of them to 0
They look really pog then
I have it at 20
I encountered two users last night who missed the old nameplates, but only because (and quoting them here): "I wanna dab on some plebs with my orange status!"
Just saw them? If so you can set background color to transparent so it’s only text, then it’s even more lightweight
Only orange? 🙄 /s
I'm new so I've got no basis for the joke 😅
That’s about what I’d expect. Personally I paid for a year of plus and probably won’t use an icon in the long term. (Not because I don’t want to get targeted or anything, I just like how simple it looks without one)
if anything it's a good thing that the colors are gone because then I won't subconsciously be suspicious of greys
They still show up when square menu is opened but you can disable that from happening as well
no, no... that can stay
My opinion on the new name-tags is mixed since it made it harder for me to figure out the users that probably should be watched.
yeah
same
kinda the same as what I said, but the opposite
As someone who played long before the trust system was added, nothing was gained from adding colored nametags but false judgement
I’m happy to see it downplayed
I’ve seen spam from every color nameplate
And for those that say purple spams more, people spend more time in purple
it's useful for event hosts to at least half some clue how long people have been playing
Not anymore
if I'm just having a regular night I don't particularly care about rank
Plus might have been the first paid trust boost but it’s not the first trust boost. Someone who knows what they are doing could always rise ranks pretty fast
There is no real meaning for green and above in terms of how long you’ve played. Green is long enough that it’s all the same.
most event "terrorists" end up using alts once theyre on a watch list though
I can live without rank color but it for sure will take getting used to
we could just lose the trust system entirely if there was a way to automatically block and mute anyone who's a brush
lol
sad blueasis noises
Just an private version of VRC where all 'cursed' people and kids go @kindred nacelle
All the bursh, knuckles, eboys and ethots into the shadowrealm version of vrc 🙏
So basically VRchat Prison servers.
I've never met a vrc ethot who wasn't perfectly nice and--well there was that one chick
but mostly e-girls are lovely people
imagine a seperate server for nuisance rank but without letting them know
Im talking about the ethots, not egirls here catgirl
who the fuck would buy a trusted acc. cringe
I dislike two parts of VRC
The cloning of avatars as it prevented the team from monitoring optimization within the avatar scene (howly shit, what ran the game smooth when public avatar worlds had to be optimized to stay online).
And the colors within the trust system.
One is gone, maybe one day we will get another 'fix' for the other 
can't imagine carrying that much unless I needed it for malicious reasons
I thought I didn't want any of the VRC+ features, but the custom nameplates are actually pretty nice
I'm happy to support VRC, don't get me wrong
I would prefer a system where everyone has full avatar features and I can manually chose people to show only their voice and base avatar without shaders and anims
Screen shaders though. 👀
I'm guessing it's a global setting at the moment? (all or nothing for everyone)
by rank
ahh
It would be neato to be able to block shaders and animations on some avatars without removing all of the avatar yea
For every individual, you can
-Hide an avatar entirely
-Show the avatar fully
-default to the current safety settings for their rank
Everyone defaults to the third option unless you change it for them
Some shaders are really whacky in some worlds and you then gotta limit the full avatar or everyone on that rank
Thanks so much for the explanation!
My VRC just commited pepperoni, so I thought I would look through the end of the client log for any insights...
[OVRManager] OVRPlugin.shouldQuit detected
The entire log is mostly error free (aside from a few badly implemented function calls with no parameters), but the above is what caused my game to shut down. Either I'm, being haunted or the game doesn't see a complete graphics failure as such.
Yeah I like to use no safety at all and just hide the avatar for the few people that are spammy. Just wish instead of hiding their avatars entirely I could just disable their anims and shaders. That way I can still see them as a unique avatar as well as know when they have changed it
yo how it be
wish I had friends on other than these comfy boys and sus mans rn
I can has friend? 👉 😊 👈
my advice is to turn on the option to only show avatars at Poor or better
and turn on the dynamic bone limiter too
describe comfy boy
M' jigglies tho. ;-;
dynamic bones are the single most brutal frame-killer there is
not in the mood for sitting around and headpatting
I still say manually animating bones looks better than dynamic bones
Especially now that you can have reactive animations
yo hows it goin
I'm hungry
Can't really create polls without emojis, but just curious. How long did it take you guys to find "the" avatar for you? The one that expresses how you see yourself?
Was it like 2 hours, 2 weeks, 2 months...?
I just need an easy answer rq, is it easy to make a already pc only world for both platforms? or is there abit of “stuff” per say to be done.
Never. I found it at VKet3.
Just a yes or no if you can gimme a link or go into detail DM me i’d appreciate that
What I'm saying is, the first avatar I ever found that seemed right for "expressing how I see myself" wasn't in a public world.
Ah. Well I'm still curious -- how long did it take?
I also had someone make an avatar for me. Kind of paid him too much considering he was just bashing together the same ripped/stolen assets that everyone else uses. But he didn't not do a good job. Better than being one of the absolute blinged-up public avatar nightmares
I made her as soon as I got new user rank and I've been using variations (and upgrades) of the same character for 100s of hours
Gotcha, you got one custom made.
Heck, VKet 5 is coming up!
Maybe you'll be like me and find something you really like there.
Nice to know, thanks for your answers :D. Seems like the ones who stick with one avatar all the time are the ones that custom made it, or bought it.
(which logically makes sense)
I know a few people who have an attachment to a public avatar
for example, a friend of mine collects Futabas.
It took me around 3 days to find both my main private avatar and my main public avatar though I plan to commission one in 2021 once I acquire a drawing tablet.
A friend of his made him a new one for his birthday, also
Nice! These are awesome answers thank you 😄
nice
I wonder, if I had the option to use some kind of crazy advanced character creator, then would I make a male avatar?

@languid beacon you don't use safetys?
Nope.
Isn't that a bad idea because of crashers?
why does my sensitivity/dpi like spike whenever i look at certain parts of a world?
crashers tend to have blue or green accounts, not grey
I used VRChat before safety existed. Got along just fine.
I've my safetys hiding every avatar except from friends
I've done no changes to the default safety settings. Only been crashed once.
I turned it off when it was released and haven’t used it. I don’t like the idea of seeing things incorrectly
(in 5 days)
My game would just lag as hell if all avatars load in
Especially in lobbys with more than 10 people
When I lag I just find the very poors and hide their avatars entirely
I would softlock myself
my settings are to block grey avatars and very poor avatars
That's like 95% of the lobby
I only turned off custom animations since they tend to cause me to crash or reduce frame rate to 5-10 frames which is unplayable solely because of the frames not motion sickness since I'm naturally immune to it.
Not my experience. Most avatars are poor. I don’t see very many very poor
My avatar is also classified as very poor, but it only draws like 3 FPS maybe
Not basically every. Every. Every single public avatar, ever, is very poor.
Most public avatars are poor or very poor.
We must not use the same public avatars
most are very poor
In my defense I tend not to use the mmd / anime avatars
Yeah. 95% of my favorites are very poor, including my private ones.
which are 90% of avatars.
