Please don't actually be trying.
Will I finally be able to see my own butt with full body tracking.
Or at least my back side, cause people behind me be sus sometimes
based
Can I ask what the fuck is 'based'.
I know there was some based god or something, but there's also now a word in reference as 'based' for describing something, just not sure the meaning
Biased.
Blessed.
Based is already boomer status? Man these kids move fast. And they are the ones that started it!
sometimes even from uh... 8pm till 10am
its a weird aspect cause you loose the feeling that its late or early
Overtired
Your cycle just gives up and it’s like ok time for the wake up chemicals get out of that deep sleep you were supposed to be in
I have a weird chemical phobia that means I don’t do drugs or alcohol but it annoyingly extends to things like pain meds, sleeping pills, or antiallergy pills
Well, your kinda screwed without something to knock you out if your bodies really that overtired..
Oh I’m good. The other guy though rip
Don't wear a quest when falling awake* though, you'll have nothing but nightmares.
I regurgitate all memes and annoy all generations equally
idk man im in my 30s. imagine not keeping up with the memes. ppl got to ketchup
Unless one just doesn't care enough to do so
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
then they should not be surprised when called a boomer
I personally don't care about what I am called as long as I have my friends
I've been called a bummer a few times.
You're just you Omega
Yeah..
Same with me.
ive been called a boomer for recalling early internet stuff. or long dead memes drom the past (2005 era)
Well.. I talk alot and write out mass stories, I'm well known for that at least.
still fun laughs
Half these people have no clue what dial up was
^
You ever just have a phone call then fuck your internet searches
We had slightly easier times in the eay 2000s
oh my god. i remember my sis plugging up the phone line to pc and hooked that bad boy up. jesus
I'm 38 soon.. I was in the before 56k days.
I remember my first monitor at 5
That thing was heavy as a fucking tv
The giant box ones
I remember my first acorn 2000.
I’m 34. My parents are boomers, they are on their mid 70’s, which is over twice my age.
Though to be fair the fact that millenials resent being called boomers is probably the reason Gen Z does it so much. So well played.
i had a crt monitor. the white big ones. jesus
Keyboards with orange F keys.
dial up
haha
we leeched off the church next door's internet because we got a lot of calls interrupting the dialup
when they passworded it we got verizon
Crispy, try vr trader or something, its somewhere you can get to commission people
i mean our age we are millenials. gen z is the 17-25 or so
maybe we'd be kinder to boomers if they knew what milennial actually meant
Wait shit I am gen z.
u call millenials (us) boomers u have same reaction as calling zoomers a millenial
I'm just me, I don't care for all this new age mumbo jumbo.. I'm an 80s guy and that's what I will always be.
Aren't millennials from the early 90s?
Millenials are early 90s
im 88
Zoomers are 1995-2010
Or i fucking think
I was born 1993
let me check
resigning yourself and others to your age group is kinda dumb anyways
the body may atrophy, the times may change, and your mind may dull as you are on death's door, but it doesn't mean you can't keep up
Gen X: Gen X was born between 1965 and 1979/80 and is currently between 41-56 years old (65.2 million people in the U.S.)
Gen Y: Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1981 and 1994/6. They are currently between 25 and 40 years old (72.1 million in the U.S.)
Gen Y.1 = 25-29 years old (around 31 million people in the U.S.)
Gen Y.2 = 29-39 (around 42 million people in the U.S.)
Gen Z: Gen Z is the newest generation, born between 1997 and 2012/15. They are currently between 6 and 24 years old (nearly 68 million in the U.S.)```
i was on void earlier and someone had effectively the same avatar but with reindeer antlers and we were just vibin
There you go
i put a video of it in #vrchat-videos
I remember someone was using an avatar in one room
I hit less than 10 frames a second outta nowhere, lagging
I was wheezing at how someone was like 'I AM HTITING 15 FRAMES ON A 3090'
hahahaha
vrchat's blessing is its curse
Oof.
user-created content, user-created problems
i would have crashed im using an asus 1660s
Bro im using a 1070 gtx
Yes, a lesson is sometimes learnt the hard way.
i was htiting 2 frames in which i spedrun to slam that maximum safety button
That's why I am so stubborn at times Omega
the 1070 is similar performance isnt it? ik mine will have better reflections but the 1070 should generally stand up to the 1660
i use an rx 570
SO everyone though on Wolf3D model thingy ?
I dont consider you stubborn.. my ex now SHE was stubborn.
i have a poor poor gtx 1650
purrs like a kitten if i bump optimization to even so much as poor
however if i bump optimization to so much as poor, then everyone becomes robots, because apparently everything except me is verypoor
You've never seen me fully stubborn then. @vocal shard
even my rx 570 is better than that. wot
'This isn't even my final form'.
nah the 1070 beats the 1660s at like everything i just looked up benchmarks
i probably minced the words a bit, what i mean is it runs amazingly if i set avatar performance limit to poor
No but you might be my ex for all I know, she was a stubborn one.
but then nobody exists because optimization is a myth among content creators
anyone know where the jerma avatars world was? i lost my old account
the 1650 isn't worth it imo
SO we can now make our own IRL model base off IRL picture geee
any card that doesn't require external power gets a no from me
well to be fair i am using a laptop
oh
why the hell would i ever do that?
Optimisation is all about time which equals effort which generates income.
college
sadly, the portable part hasn't proved much use even in college
i don't even want amazing optimization out of everyone i'm just boggled nobody can even hit as high as poor
is the SDK really that restrictive?
waiiit the 1660s has higher price and power consumption than the 1070 but the 1070 beats it in all but 1 benchmark wot
Not so much the sdk and yeah you can blame the content creators.. I'm just stating that a few years ago.. we never rushed a project, and when you do.. shit happens.
oh no i know
i'll take a shot for every new femboy avatar that turns into a robot for me
Bet.
figuratively
can't do that legally
BOut to commission that just so you take a shot
A shot of what is the question followed by an answer.
^
(by turn into a robot i mean it gets blocked because it's 200k polys with 100 dynamic bones and 50 material slots with none of the meshes merged)
This reminds me
My friend said he'd drink a gallon of sunny d if a dark souls character got into smash bros for dlc
Theres still a slot left. We fear for his life.
lol
Vitamins are bad.
sunny d is an orange flavored drink
Don't do drugs.
I'm mid-high tier now! Muahahaha (3070)
i forget is it a soda or am i thinking of fanta
how good is your vr I do fine with the same card
wait literally?
oh right
I meant your frames in like a black cat no shields
Nokia 3210
Wait yuo use a phone
What the fuck is with technology these days holy shit i am outdated
i can weather most things well if it's like 12
20 players lobbies basically lock up my entire pc
oh no phones are primitive vr
i have to use a kinect just to have positional tracking
oh
and the res is pretty garbage along with the crust resulting from streaming the display but hey
didn't need to sell my organs
K
alot of avatars can be quest compatable too sometimes you dont even need to optimize
just duplicate the proj delete the dynamic bones and hope that swtiching the shaders works
Quit mocking the inferior quest :)
that works a decent bit of the time
im only in it for the dynamics
petition to add 2 dynamic bones to quest
I have like 20
you already know why 2 specifically
Lol
I shouldn't be so hard on quest users, it's not their fault they wasted their money.
my current avatar has 33 dynamic bones
damnnn
107615 polys
is there a way to use index knuckles with quest 2 headset
True
Why do you need your avatar to be that high quality
I think the only way that would be possible is if you have base stations and are on a pc
You might as well just buy a whole index at that point
my avatar has 411 bones wanna make it 412 hahahahaa
im sorry i made myself laugh with that
That sounds intriguing..
I dont understand people who want avatars that have that much stuff
mine just has a really long dynamic tail
Mine has a long dynamic tail too
and long dynamic hair
But I only have like 20 dynamic bones and 30000 polys
just 33 dynamic bones isnt that much, its above the standard limit but its not much
What
You know it
He gets it.
i like how i said earlier i was a desktop mute and when k/d joined i was the complete opposite of mute lol
it just occurred to me
oh I didnt know you were supposed to be a mute
nah i was being a mute at the time but then i made a friend who was the one i was with when you joined
I've read your profile, you find it hard to interact without someone who's actually social, most of us feel the same way :)
Not that hard for me
you what
Reading is fun.
wdym by ive read your profile
Your chat earlier.. about 3 hours ago, you made it clear that you like to socialise but have a hard time funding those who actually want to chat.
I have a good memory is all.
fair enough
I've actually gotta plan for my date this weekend
nice
can i just say i am literally the last person anyone would date. like id probably forget i was even dating someone lol
I doubt you'd forget if it was that memorable, lol.
you'd be surprised what i forget
do u forget ur birthday
- giggles * sometimes...
insane
Is that a direct question of how old she is?
i didnt know she was a she
Neither did I.
I possess no gender.
no
everyone is a dude unless confirmed otherwise
Omega is just omega
I'm legit xxy, so yeah.. I'm biologically both.
i forget my age every time im asked
My mother thinks I'm 1 year older than I actually am
Hmm.. young enough to be my son.
excuse me
I would be proud to have a son who used Vrchat.
i went to wembly before lockdown and i was asked how old i was by security and i forgot
If you used altspscevr however I would have to disown you.
hhow
cuz they dont scan under 16s
whats altspacevr
oh bloody hell
Possibly the Most PC VR platform ever created.
You have absolutely zero freedom there without tripping over a broken rule.
i just looked at him and said 'uuuhhhh i forgot my age.' i did actually tell him my age (i was 15 at the time)
thing is im 6'4 so i get asked my age all the time
giant
im a diagnosed giant lol
With age your back will go and you'll shrink.
wait is there a diagnosis for being a giant
It's not a diagnosis but yes there is over 7ft
huh
I watched a documentary on the tallest man in the world (there's been a few) they have an annual convention that the tallest people in the world attend.
i may not have a diagnosis for being a giant but i am diagnosed with adhd plus im on the spectrum
and undiagnosed but incredibly obvious depression
i was diagnosed with hella sexy
haha
they cant help me
And the conversation went downhill from there.
damn ok
hello friends i've got a SMALL QUESTION
if i made a new account on vr chat will my favorite avatars be the same or different as my other account
Yes.
i dont think you'd have any favorite avatars if u made a new account
Yes..
:laffeyshake:
ohh okay ty!
i was just wondering because i wanted them to be different and i didn't want to lose the other ones somehow
Did you know
no i didn't
Did you hear
nah i had airpods in
Airpods.. back in my day we used a Walkman and a pair of big ole headphones.
i don't actually have airpods. i always use standard apple earphones if im using wired but if i'm using bluetooth i have a pair of jbl headphones. using them rn actually
Back when things made sense.
i have the entire 2 hour void club mix on spotify
@placid umbra VRChat servers are having troubles again. No avatars are loading. We are stuck on the "Loading" avatar.
Loading avatar sounds like a good way to avoid crashing.
yeah
yeah but that should never happen. Because it means traffic is being obfuscated.
true
I know, I jest :)
kk
Basically there's so many clients bombarding the server with requests the server is like shit dos attack, denied.
requests from all players = server bottleneck = problems = u devs shall do something about this.
i have to raise my shields everytime i change worlds otherwise i time out. as soon as im in the new server i can lower them again. the issue is that every time i time out my client dies and i have to hit it with task manager
How many people is "we".
Yeah, just about every server.
Everyone in the instance i am in including friends of friends.
i have like 1000+ contacts on vrchat, actively about 100+
You have a busy life, that's alot of attention.
i find that changing performance settings helps in that situation. try lowering /raising max avatar size and then putting it back. always works for me
oh wow okay
ye
lot of attention and most of the people forget who i am, i mean... thats normal with so many people.
I prefer to stay on my own world, forever alone, I ride on my ferris wheel talking to myself about how much fun I'm having.
can i just add: 14:30 in the void club mix through to like 30 something is my jam
that's just sad lol
That's life.
- sniff sniff * yeah
But I have balloons to keep me company :)
fair enough
heard void club is cancer since everyone just goes to a single mirror
I have been in a murder game with some very exotic souls, I forgot how fun this game is
thats just asking why involve yourself in vrchat
The short answer to that is, time to kill, and nothing better to do.
oh btw y'know earlier when we all had that kon that glitched the menus and skybox
and how i was like don't use that i don't wanna get banned
I want an avatar with a shader that fakes the wifi dissconected error
so people alt f4 on themselves
Err.. I remember something similar involving transparent layers years ago, yes.
well me and the guy i was with when you joined me went to void club and guess what the bastard did
what
he got out the kon
as soon as i saw it i just fled
i can't remember what it was but it didn't have a collision so i hid inside it until he turned the emote off
wow there were a lot of typos there
is vrchat quest compatible with vrchat pc
the what
Blame your phone with lag, it's responsible for all typos.
you can play vrchat on quest yes
if your asking if a quest only avatar is compatable with pc no it isnt
oh so quest servers are different than pc servers
no
Has anyone tried the readyplayer.me avatar creator? and if so, is anyone else's avatars from it getting imported with no textures?
yeah if you download it the textures arent there and if it gets uploaded you cant use it because its privated lol
the devs just threw this shit at the wall so yeahh
I mean its cool tho
I see the same questions asked hundreds of times on a daily basis.
readyplayerme made me look mexican
same
The one it generated for me was neat and all just... a shame it lacks textures. 🤷♀️
join there discord if you want to know whats going on
a surprising amount of people are not complaining there
alright bois being drunk, trying Pokemon skins and talking to kids is hella funny
That sounds like hell.
well true
sry random comment again sry hahah
no that was proper social que your good
This phone is lagging on discord, pile of filth.
get a new phone
wait what phone do you have
If you don't know then your good.
ayy midnight on midnight rooftop
This is is a crappy j3 galaxy.
oh wow okay
Yeah, it can't can't do much.
Except lag on repeat... as you can see.
google pixel series tho
lol sounds like the 5s i used to have
Hmm I'd say an iPhone 5 is better tbh, lol.
yo is zarniwoops avatar dungeon just gone
Idk if this is the right place to ask this, but im out of options and noone has any kind of solutions. I just got my valve index and any time i move my head while lagging, it seems to change everything to some sort of Orthographic view/2D image view as best as i can describe it, but when i move around in any game while keeping my head still, it looks fine. anyone know how to fix this
I dunno why I bother with this when I've got a grands worth of lenevo tablet sitting next to me.. think I will switch over.
nah once it gave me a 20% battery warning while on 80%, then turned off. gave me the no battery symbol twice before booting back up on 60%
I am 99% sure thats just because your pc sucks
tell me your specs
1080 is fine.
^
yeah, its definately not cause my 'pc sucks' my man
I was using a fucking rift S and everything was fine
but i switch to an 800 dollar headset for it to be a piece of shit
I dislike the rift s more than the quest.
I dislike the index more than the S now
hang on isn't valve having production issues with their base stations rn
That'd be the pc
true
Nothing but the pc
i only read 'every time i turn my head' and no more than that
ram and vram
Anyone who buys an index should not be questioned over specifications.
yeah it has to be something else anyway since the rift s worked
i plan to get a used vive. they've been selling really cheap on ebay since the quest 2 launched
If your going to pay what it costs out you would be more than wise to wrap up the specs it runs with.
well you would be surprised
I bought a cheap cv1 the other day on ebay for 160 quid, 3 sensors, excellent condition, with wall plugs for sensors.. and extension cables as extras.. not bad for the money if you ask me.
@warm sky
it barely fits my smol ipd
Unity.
google the article by vrchat devs
I got my cv1 for 160 euro but only 2 sensors
i want a vive bc i don't trust oculus and i cant afford an index. plus, i have experience with the vive since my friend has one that i've used a lot
decagear isnt 160 euros so it will not beat the cheap cv1
i also plan to get full body
I don't think any of us trust Facebook.. but the cv1 is really dam good for its cost, especially nowadays..
the res on the cv1 tho is loww but I guess you cant really notice
i have a psvr and the res on that is sooo low
You can upscale the resolution.
like you can't read shit
wait your not hardstuck on 1080×1200
i couldn't care less about it at the moment. it's dead to me
Psvr is an amazing headset though and I'd rate it more useful than a quest.
or maybe it's because i was having so many things go wrong at once i blamed it all on the psvr bc i was trying to get that working in the first place
Sony didn't really change that much but yeah.. it looks good lol
i got trinus psvr but it wouldn't calibrate correctly then my pc died for a bit then vrchat fully died and then i finally got online having given up on trinus only to find my avatar gone so i just had a breakdown and blamed it all on the psvr
interesting
Well.. sounds like the shit hit the fan for you so it's okay to blame a scapegoat, I never really enjoyed calibrating with psmove controllers before touch.
@lunar root thats a lot of work to make a avatar but I will challenge my self to do it
😀
Gl
i have a great pic of the headset that i took at my dad's old house. it have it as my whatsapp pic
My WhatsApp pic is me attempting to smile and just looking like a smug asshole for the most part.
mine is just a Honda Prelude
I dont like my face enough to put it as my pfp anywhere
i rarely take selfies and if i do im hiding my lower face in some way. i need a haircut atm too so that doesn't help
Someone literally hacked my headset.
that makes 0 sense
A racist exploiter literally crashed my headset in hub.
thats not hacking a headset
I was glitching, flying everywhere.
thats just a crasher avatar/client
I didn't get crashed.
Ah, he did crash my controls.
you can be a bit more specific that'd help
It is more useful than a quest, but it’s still not as good as a pcvr headset by a long shot
how do you mean crash your controls, you couldnt move anymore?
Yea.
Yep
did you sit on a seat
then rather simply put its a shitty avatar probably mixed in with a client, because sad people exist
What I saw triggered me and was traumatizing, it's going to be hard to go to hub without anxiety of that.
Don't worry too much, in general you wont find those people. if you remember their name you can make a report in #moderation-reports
Mod*
Joke’s on them really, their mod’s likely taking their login information and tokens anyway
Yes its a mod of the client
I cant understand what people find funny about it but hey im not mentally challenged so
I had to wash my eyes out in the restroom after taking the headset off to stop thinking about it.
I wouldn’t call that “triggering”, that’s just traumatising material
I've seen worse, not in vrchat but in general
There was gore.
Yes, that is traumatic stuff
I threw the headset up in the air and my heartrate jumped
I'd have closed my eyes first
came back later, never went to hub ever.
ohhhh no now im thinking about that nightmare again aaaaa
You should probably use safety settings
i doubt that
If you set it to maximum it wouldnt have done that
also its a screamer to
I really doubt something can bypass safety settings
which means you can get severe ear damage
yep
My headset earrapes me constantly, just cause that's what it does
you got griefed
luckily the rift has funny earpieces that wiggle
I didn't do anything and that happened.
I wouldn't worry about it, it isnt common
People being sheople and following a troll narrative.
Or run no shields and just be prepared to go into saftey mode
Are they a person who run behind people and trigger the trauma?
I run custom safety
I run none until I need to
now you see I go to publics
So do i
I have never received a crash in all my vrchat life as of yet..
I was speaking to a dude
yeah I go to black cats
then that happened
I got crashed maybe 2 times in 300 hours
I usually dont crash during the effect but almost always after its like hmm yes I was supposed to crash
Dang
I barely ever crash, but one thing that pisses me off is getting stuck at 100% loaded
Gotta restart the game everytime
yeah thats a big problem if your hopping lobbies
Just alt an f4 and reload at the blink of an eye..
my pc is slow
Mine is not
lol i saw older teens bully the young ones so i felt bad
i wanted to help but i was too nervous
I refuse to use shitty hard drives on any rig I run nowadays.. ssds all the way.
Id love Ssds, im just poor
You up for NVMe SSD(s)?
Samsung 850 evo X2 here.. although that's only 1tb with both.. not much for storage when it comes to all the models I download, HDD for storage a western digital alt to suffice, but for speed and access overall for loading times.. ssds all the way.
Honestly, I'm all fine but all I need is faster internet

Well I'm on ADSL 2.0 you can't get as bad as this honestly, well I suppose you can with dial up..
You guys seen the mega realistic hotel they made all for a vr furry convention?
Barely 1.2mbs down and 90kbs up.
Is fiber net still rare..?
The level of detail in that world is insane
No..
my rig that i've been building is all ssd - two 512gb nvme's, plus a sata games ssd.
my prebuilt is a 240gb nvme plus a 1tb games hard drive (i have vrchat installed on the boot nvme on both pc's)
It's just that I live in the English countryside.. England's fully loaded with fibre, but I'm to far away for the fibre box to be connected currently, and most of the properties in this area require permission to alter from the crown itself because they are grade 2 listed buildings. Which means we can't modify existing structure and that also includes the land and lines around it.
damn
Tolerable somehow, this is the result of living in a beautiful village.. shit internet.
even 20mb feels slow to me. i've been living life with 100+. currently paying for 500mb but getting 20-40
It sucks when you’re instance hopping and have to restart the whole game
Especially in vr
Mhmm
what the heck
20 mb would be a godsend dude
😞
me but timing out from avatars downloading
Timing out is another thing that sucks
One time I managed to switch instance before it could say I timed out, played another full round of a game, and then leave, and then it told me I timed out
Speed gapping from a server is a perfectly acceptable error if your speed hacking.. that's the only error I can agree with lol
my ping just spikes to like 1000+ and then if im lucky or if there's less than 15 people my pc'll push through.
hello, I can't log in the sdk in unity
I don’t think it’s a fault with my pc, it’s just that vrc servers bad
it's exactly the reason i installed vrchat on my nvmes. it actually helped and i time out less often
Surprisingly enough my speed might be terrible.. yet I create world's, so I have to sit through 6 hours of uploading with the possibility of failure. I'd like to consider myself quite a patient person.
How so?
I hit "sign in", it say "signing as Wolfo" and return to the authentification page
SDK username and pass is the same as what you use to login to crochet via the website.
Mhmm
Wow even my fucking tablet is auto correcting me.. life's just full of shit today, nice.
I know
crochet
I don't believe I've ever mentioned crochet in my life either.
Anyone cry over a past memory that's triggered by a tiktok??
Nope.
Just me-
Just a tear
So someone know how to help me ?
I was on vr with my boyfriend last night and almost threw up on myself
That's a nice image.
i -
Why does my ping keep going over 1000
I wanna get a oculus quest 2 to play with my friends I wanted to ask before i buy it
I'm very s o f t
I can listen to sad eurobeat all day long
Idk
Its good but youll miss out on a lot of pc content unless you link
I find it hard not to dislike the quest.. please do yourself a favour and get a wired setup.
Just get a quest 2
joji and juice shouldn't be hitting home on your normal day man @vocal shard
only the lows
😀
I don't have a PC
A ping of over 1000 is completely unacceptable and I won’t tolerate it
Ive never gone over 200
Get a pc then, because without a pc and the quest alone the experience is not what you want.
i -
I think your internet is comitting a bigger bababoeey then the servers to put it simply
get the quest
😀
Quest is better than nothing, but still its eh
My png is naturally at 70-80
the quest 2 is a fine vr experience for people without a pc
Vrchat is boosting it
So you recommend me to buy a oculus quest 2?
Ping can be spoofed with a VPN.
The 1000 ping is artificial
if you enjoy vr though, definitely consider getting a pc in the future instead of a game console
yes i do
Being in America:
Pros: close to vrchat servers
Cons: literally all of the shit that’s wrong with america
Conclusion: not worth going there
It’s vrchat not being stable enough
If you can’t afford a pc yeah
Or a good headset
No it’s not
Vrchat’s never stable enough
Does the oculus quest 2 have a mic
its weird hearing all these people shit on servers and im like damn I aint ever getting issues
Yes
Ok, vrchat has bad servers
Everyone knows vrchat has bad servers
Why is this suddenly not a universally accepted concept
I dont think yall have ever heard of gaijin entertainment servers
improve adapt and overcome genie
My ping being 4000 is not a problem with my end
Im vibin even with 200 ping lmao
It is common
This needs to be fixed
So then i will get the oculus quest 2
nice
you can try to fix it on your end instead of wasting time whining
It’s not on my end
cap
At the same time, I also don’t recommend using a quest 2 for vrchat
It’s really not a game meant for quest
disagree
I can see someone stating I'm an elitist for honestly telling people to stick to wired.. but I'm only thinking of their investment over time.
There’s not much point wasting time on the people who are never gonna get it no matter many times you tell them
No it doesn’t
You can’t see most of the avatars and can’t go to half the worlds
I’m talking about standalone by the way
but it is well supported with lots of content
Like 120 ping (my usual) is perfectly fine
I already am on pcvr and not even the quest 2 can beat my cv1 when standalone
I'm never going to release for quest users.. I considered it but I think I'd be selling them lies at the end of the day.
nah, its fine. my quest friends all love the game
I normally get 80 ping
I’ve never friended a quest user before
There’d be no point because they can’t see most of the avatars I use
It sucks I have to decline them, of course, but that’s just how it is
A lot of the avatars I like using aren’t quest compatible, and they shouldn’t have to be either because of how limited it would have to be to be that heavily optimised
i pretty much only use quest avatars anymore to be inclusive (and well optimized)
How do i buy quest 2 comparable avatars
avatars are mostly free, you can find them in avatar worlds
you just click on an avatar pedestal and become it
Quest users aren’t buying shit
What’s the point in commissioning an avatar at that stage
As soon as I get my new monitor as it's arriving soon.. then I can finally get back in unity and finish my new map.. I find it utterly disgusting to use a 4k TV as a monitor right now, I can't stand a 60" screen at such a short distance unity is so large and obnoxious and super clean.
people saying that vrchat have bad servers just don't understand how networking work lmao
lol thats pretty meta
The vrchat servers are fine, they're just located far away from europe.
Might as well wait until you can properly experience the game before commissioning a custom avatar
I live in New Zealand can i join the vr servers
yeah, lots of people from AU and NZ play
Last time I was in vrchat lolathon was running around as Stephanie from lazytown.. it was chaos.
Vrchat needs to stop raising my ping
Plenty of people from those countries play the game, no reason you wouldn’t be able to
It’s just that Vrchat servers are bad so everyone crashes here and there
I wonder when they’ll be able to put it out
You can join the servers from anywhere.
VRChat isn't a game that require you to have low ping.
Don't expect vrchat to contain alot of Chinese players soon though.. as stated it's only a matter of time till vrchat is banned over there.
Actually my vote is that vrchat’s servers are running on a single laptop
aws
yeah, anywhere in the "free world"
Why does my avatar look like vrchat’s dumb loading avatar?
I mean, as long as you're allowed to be here you should be allowed to be on vrchat. :p
Vrchats servers are hooked up to a dedicated dell running Windows xp.
The reason people time out and crash is because one of the devs starts using the laptop to talk in this server
It’s already loaded
Imagine if we had a voice channel in here.. the chaos would be beautiful.
itd just be kids streaming fortnite 24/7
Yeah screw the 80(81 as of the latest update) hardcap
Maybe
Anyone know how long it takes to go from visitor to new user?
?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.

Ah, I'm not good at making new friends :P
Nobody is in vrchat.
There are 28235 users in VRChat currently
You just hang around and talk shit to one another
Gotta love the small children who join a furry based world to talk about how they want to ‘kill the furries’
Oh yeah, glorious.. better than the epidemic we had a while back though with knuckles and do u know de way suite.
kill the furries?
Lol, vr seems nice. I like it. I came from Secondlife so that says a lot
That brought so many kids over to us.. streamers are to blame mostly.
Also feed them to the Synx
again, violent speech sucks
joshdub
It's totally true.
Secondlife
I’d just say it’s a bit of a weird one
It has no singular stereotypical person, not that I know of anyway
Kinda weird how you have to buy everything but it makes sense since all of it is user made
second life is wack
I just used it for a bit of character creation and called it a day
I made a lot on there
I tried to get into socialising on there but it didn’t end up sticking
Avatars, vehicles, weapons, etc
Second life is a good place to head to if I ever feel like restarting my life and getting involved with the stock market once again.
That’s nice, Fugget
Although lately it's been hairpulling
Why’s that?
Laggy, bugs upon bugs, and generally unoptimized super high poly meshes, effects, etc
I see
Britbong made second life fun for a while.
I've been seeing a bit of that now in VR but it's mostly deliberate
Yeah, crashers, they do exist
Also leads me to ask a question, what is the poly limit?
Unless you mean just high poly avatars in general
Used to be 20k
20k would be amazing, forced optimization
Ew, 20k max would suck
People need to learn retopology
Yeah well..
But I understand the need for 80k in some scenarios
I stick to world creation for a reason.
Secondlife it was 60k
“Forced optimisation”
Imagine if everything was forced to be optimised for quest compatibility
I’d quit
As I imagine many would
Which, is why thankfully that wouldn’t happen
Well I'm not one for the quest.. so yes that would annoy me.
I'll have a real judgement when I have a better computer tho
As for now I'm using a low mem potato
So I just opt for low poly
Although I can turn off higher poly avatars for now so eh, win win
The SDK used to have hard limits on most performance factors, but unfortunately it just encouraged people to seek out and pass around dodgy modified SDKs to bypass the restrictions.
Low poly isn't bad depending on how it's used, for example my theme park is mostly all low poly, but that's the good part about it, weighs in at 135mb roundabout, however that's mostly due to all the rides animations.
So the devs seem to have moved more towards user moderation options, and making avatar performance stats more transparent to other users.
Keep it short and sweet and not over the top except when animations are concerned.
No but there's shaders lol
Ultrawings is a relatively low-poly vr game when it comes to the environment, but that game is allowed to be, I’m not getting up close and personal with the ground unless I fly the plane wrong and, ‘eat shit’
Also let me change my nick, it's obnoxious
You can get a wireframe shader and place it on your head/hand, and then enable it with an animation, if you want that power.
My main avatar actually has that as a feature.
Internet messing around with sl and wireframe it's simply a common interface in the editor
I remember*
Oh yeah, I remember there being a wireframe thing in sl
I used it like once for a couple seconds and never since
Yeah it's useful for designing some elements like structures mostly, at least I used i used it for that
Yep
Like some dude wearing some item so dense that it might as well be high rez render
I just joined
Welcome
Thanks :) I'm just curious of it's limits, and uses and what it needs or has
It's a fantastic creative outlet.
I start playing vrchat just yesterday, too. ;D
Is that the squishy that I remember from years ago..
Man it's great to see you xD you I haven't seen you in ages xD
I feel, I used to even sleep and snore on SL Mic
I lived in that game, still do but it's time for something newer I feel
There are some of us oldies still around we just climb up from the woodwork I guess, lol.
Well there's plenty of places to sleep in VR-Chat. : P
Though don't be like a friend of mine. He killed four headsets that way.
LOL
I move around in my sleep, I wouldn’t sleep in such a delicate piece of hardware
No one should, really
I wouldn't want to leave my headset on all night
For the sake of the headset
Norwegian returns law apparently lets you get away with stuff like that, and never have to pay for a new one.
And for the sake of saving power
I had a girlfriend in second life that I met on second life that turned out to be a possessive and crazy girl.. she bought me lots of items.. but was only really into me because of my accent.. so you can imagine what she was truly after, lol.
That’s why you don’t date on sl
Lol
Second life is very full of adult oriented.
Because of the kinds of people that play on sl in the first place
Lots of pony lovers to unfortunately
Oh yes, many of them
Bronnies everyehere
Good thing I never planned on going there anyway
Yeah, it's not so bad anymore. You gotta know where to go, but it is a lot of rejected, outcast, weird people. It can bring out the bad in people
You'd fit right in if you was a pony.
hi
I have my first life to worry about, I discovered that I don’t really have time for a second one
I have multiple lives but all center on the internet.
lol
God the years fly too fast
YouTube ad plug
I'm a classic guy if I'm not running emulators that is lol
sir this is #vrchat-general-2
Advice to live via: car doors can’t stop all bullets.
Maxims name brings back maxis memories.. good times good games.. classic sim city
Nice xD that's a real classic
Alright, speaking of keeping on topic, one last question. Let's see if I understand this right. If I made a character and wanted to sell them on VRChat, without people copying them, would it be private and a VRC+ feature
simcity 2000 is my jam
SC2K was my fav though. The one for Windows 95
Like theme park for ps1
llamas
And yeah that's how and why I built a theme park originally.. I wanted to honestly design theme park in its entirety.. but that's not possible on vrchat currently..
there is a cool world where you can build a monorail
and ride it
If sold on Unity asset store people would be able to upload as public?
SimAnt was another good Maxis game. Its a bit older and was for MS DOS.
Well I have every ride so a monorail wouldn't go a miss I haven't got that yet.. lol
A monorail and a flume ride is allnim missing.
You probably just want to sell the avatar and have the individuals who buy it upload it themselves as private avatars
That’s what the case is with the only paid avatar I’ve seen and pay attention to
I don’t believe you could realistically stop them from uploading it as public, idk
But you can always say they’re not allowed to do that I guess-
I don’t know about the legal stuff in that regard, either
That's fine we can just dosbox sim ant nowadays
DMCA would come in
This tablets about to die will be back shit later when I'm not on 2%, been good talking and trolling the quest, laters all.
Looking cool Joker
That would suck. They should implement a more creator friendly system. Selling them and getting DMCA involves money wouldn't it? Because you'd have to send that person to court and have lawyer?
Hell if I know
With how many kids seem to think they can get away with little things like that and how many trolls doesn't seem too worth it
But when I do eventually buy the avatar I’m looking at, it’s no matter to me since I’ll be uploading it as private like I should be anyway
Plus requires person investigation and interrogation sometimes which is also a pain. Like seeing your own work being handed out free would tick me off so badly if I invested so much work and time into it to have some kid break my rules, and people can just lie and say they bought it when they didn't. That's really iffy to me xP
Well, it is a legal hassle, and it’s not like I’m gonna spend the night convincing you that you should make a buyable avatar if you don’t want to do that
There's lots of people that sell avatars in the VRC community, but ultimately there's no method to prevent people just passing around the files after purchasing.
Yeah all good. I understand lol.
Most people are unwilling to pay for an avatar that they can't get some degree of control over, in terms of customising it.
Or at least the guarantee that they'd be able to re-upload/fix it in the case that something happened.
Naturally
some scam site said they were selling a personal model one of my idols made
like the cowards they were they didn't actually have the model even, but the silver lining is it inspired him to make a "mass-production" model
i should check up on that....
What would be the point if you couldn’t do those things?
There are commission artists who only sell uploads to peoples accounts, not including the package files.
But that's highly dubious and generally unwise in it's own ways.
hey guys!
could you let me know what map this is?
i've been llooking evryhere
and cant find it i
N O
posting pic in random
One, since it requires sharing account details which is a major no no (even carrying the risk of accounts getting banned together due to association if one person does something wrong).
And two since in a game that's constantly changing like VR-Chat, there's no guarantee that upload will still work next year.
if anyypon can help
I could customize for people for more $$$, modeling costs for equipment, software, and efforts. And some people make living off modeling and textures, rigging, etc. I've seen one friend go from $100 to $500/day
go find a channel that cares
I know of one guy who paid $200 for an avatar upload, and then only a few months later a Unity update broke it. He tried contacting the person he commissioned it from, and their discord had been deleted. Was completely unable to find them again and he had none of the files.
Oooooof
P l a n e t e a r t h -
4th away from the sun if I remember correctly
that would be mars
3rd away from the sun
He was absolutely livid and raging at the developers for daring to upgrade the unity version, as if that was never going to happen.
Really sucked for him, but everyone was trying to tell him that sadly it was his own fault for thinking a "rental" style deal like that was something permanent.
Yeah, I can't assume or judge on that one, makes sense a bit, although I am jumping gun rn, but only to see if it's worth it or not before I attempt right?
for better or for worse, giving the client the files is the way to go
That is still up to the creator, but this system seems a bit flawed anyway
the devs would need to somehow make a system to send someone an avatar, but also probably not let the recipient send it to someone else in turn
anyone who gives their login credentials to someone else for an "upload" is an idiot anyway imo
thats something you just never do
@undone berry For reference to the current avatar selling culture, if you look on Gumroad or Booth, you can see dozens of VRC avatars for sale, at various prices. Just to help understand what's out there and how some people are currently doing things.
Gacha like stuff would work, a lot along the lines of Secondlife
No, you’re the only human on this planet to play the game
I will say it
Ah, I will look at those, thanks
Sorry, hate speech?
No no, the term you’re looking for is racism
Lmao what
Who are you talking to
What happened
ill just go look up the difference
Some people. Is it so hard to just be decent? ._.
Apparently
Bigoted speech attacking or disparaging a social group or a member of such a group.
It's very difficult
hey guess what it was hate speech
It is very hard
I'm trying really hard not to type racial slurs at you
Maxim
That was probably not a very smart thing to say
confidently incorrect
Considering what I very clearly meant is that the term hate speech is dumb
And that you should call racism what it is
Is there a point in not doing that?
No no, hate speech is a term used to describe racism.
What
That’s a long sentence for “okay”
you are talking out your ass right now
Maxim
I’m beginning to think maybe it wasn’t just one thing you said that wasn’t a smart thing to say
is that a threat or are you calling me stupid?
Maybe there’s some correlation between the fact that they’re not great messages and the fact that you’re the one creating them
if its the latter, the feeling is mutual
Alrighty this channel is getting toxic
Basically unneeded fighting so how about you move it
Either or it wasn't too pleasant so let's leave it at that 😅
Bud, bud
You’re a minute late
How about you talk about air-conditioning man?
That was a minute to realise that it’s not going on anymore
😩
Ayo anyone wanna play with me i'm bored af
Ok
And I’m a little disappointed that you didn’t notice
But I’m willing to move past that as it’s not a big deal and happens all the time
This could work.
Someone is knocking on my door....
It's me
Fuck you, stole my line
Probably my neighbor that threaten me for a cigarette
Quickest hand in the west
I would’ve had it sent if my keypad didn’t decide to be russian
Instead of its me it would’ve come out as вщвосомыдвь
I don't understand how those keyboards work
It seems someone has already claimed this gift
Damn quick at claiming PFFT
In a different language probably
Like how can you tell what key is what without the letters changing
Either that wasn’t a real gift or someone has a personal bot to snipe nitro
Very likely the latter
i-
Never share a link open A because bot's and b... well there is little prove you're not just wanting attention with old already claimed gift lnks.
(Not that this is nessesirly the case here. But you know what i mean.)
The letters do change, because it’s a keypad on a touch screen
what world has a option to blur everything from a far and only close things are clear
I like the Japanese keypad because you can type the little emoticons
How come go isn’t appearing after a world fully loads?
Someone damn dm me I have 3 more nitro gifts
Y e
Servers bad
no one finna asnwer me ok then
i wish the emoticons the iphone japanese keyboard had were for all keyboards
Lol
I want
Can someone help this dude
We should probably move to #general-media
( ゜0゜)
Now that’s a pog
And some emoticons you don’t need the Japanese keypad to do
I did need it for that one
And poof
Where’d it go?
Magic
hey does anyone here play Creed Rise to Glory?
So uhh
No
Anyone wanna play vr with me :D?
Would but not on rn
My shit phone may just of given me some extra cash, all phones bought in 2015 in the uk ( yeah that includes this thing.. ) are being targeted and each owner will get £30 because qualcomm are in breach of its rights.. not a bad days work, lol.
Why the heck do I keep timing out?!
I've got nothing wrong going on locally
What in the hell
like your stuck loading?
i havent left loading
is there any place to search for previously asked VR help questions(such as my sound/mic don't work)? i've been looking for an hour online and i can't find anything
Im back

Paimon with a gun...2021, what's wrong with you?
Never said there was an issue. You must be seeing things.
Ah yes "what's wrong with you" is not pointing to something being wrong
