No.
to get put down? ๐

idk man a lot of people I've seen are female, myself included
it still is male dominated
as is most of discord tbh
true that, but there is a fairly large lgbtq community in this game
also true
and i refer to most trans people as their genetical gender, not what they feel like
that's a not very cool of you
there are just 2 genders though. i dont have any problems with trans people, but when coming to statistics and stuff they count to what they have in their pants
????
I'm gonna have to disagree there, although I don't want to start a debate here
whenever i have to sum up genders, i always refer to what they have in their pants rather than what they feel like
in private conversations and stuff i do address them by what they feel like
why not do what as they identify as, and if there's so few people identifying as a genderz put it under an "other" category
like what every other stat site does
because this can reach things i never imagined where possible. If i would ask every person on this planet for their gender, then i would have like 80+ categories
hence the other category
putting them in other is honestly more offensive than their biological gender
it's quite simple, ask for that bitches pronouns, slap emmin a pie chart, if less than x value, migrate it to other
I don't see how, its like putting plum pudding under other with carrot cake and Christmas pudding as an example
good luck when its a "sometimes im a guy, sometimes a girl, sometimes a attack helicopter" etc
what? ive seen it already, good luck putting them in a category. I get it that its important for a lot of people, but really? its getting stupid at some point
you do what they identify as at time of record?
its like asking for somebodies favoruite shop, it may change throughout the year, but you go by what their current is
it can change after you ask, but once that infos in there its set in stone
I'm assuming you've never done a survey before if you don't know this
i have done surveys before, however the lgbtq community in my country is not really large or noticable
Biological there are only 2 genders that i actually know about.
technically theres 3 biological, if you include xxy
and whats wrong with putting in their biological gender? people are born with it and are supposed to live with it
xxy?
its a genetic condition where instead of XX or xy, you have xxy
because it's pretty rude, and can make people feel unwelcomed as what they identify as
Is anyone having trouble loading people or loading in general really
stuck at 100%?
Pretty much ye my friends are having that same trouble
restart the game, that will fix forever load
its not rude, and a lot of people make it a bigger issue than it is. Its rude to call others slurs, or insult things they like/enjoy, but calling them a guy or girl is not offensive
it is pretty offensive, as somebody within that demographic, if you misgender me on purpose I will take offense
sure
blue one
red one second
That gender thing was always too complicated for me the moment i knew about LGBT lol
im a straight guy, yet im not offended when i am called a girl at all. being offended because of a biological gender just makes no sense
I'm a bi woman, but if somebody does it on purpose (not on accident), it'll annoy me
so if i call you a girl you get offended?
no, as that's what I identify as
if you call me a male, ill be offended, as that's not what I am
if you dont have a PP you are a woman to me, if you have a PP you are a guy. thats how i see things
for me it's whatever you identify as. I don't care if you have a penis but identify as a woman, the moment you identify as it, you are it in my eyes
and thats fine, but thats not how genders work
a gender literally states if you have a PP or not
no thats the gender. what you talk about is sexual orientation
sexual orientation and sex aren't the same
You have two words for gender? In my country there is only one single word for it.
sex and gender are the same word basically
sexual orientation is something different of course
^^
sex is biological
gender is social
sexual orientation is attraction
In my country there is only "gender" no "sex"
based country
In our language we just have one word for it
either red or blue pilled, I need to know more about this
german i guess?
Language defines a culture almost as much as the culture defines the language. But it's a huge driver in how people think.
we just have Geschlecht, which is translated to either gender or sex. both work and count the same
Hunger drives me eating, so give me food.
Yes
At least in english, the language was adapted to fit what research was showing. The two terms used to mean the same thing but w analysis we differentiated the two
Wasn't speaking specifically of gender/language, I meant more generally.
Which makes sense, cultures have had third gender traditions for thousands of years even if westerners didn't used to pay attention
the problem with having multiple worlds for the same thing is that one of these terms will most likely be used in a way its not intended
But, they are not the same thing, at least not in the contexts in which english uses them
ive seen sex and gender interchangeable before though
I'd point out Deutsch also has gendered nouns for inanimate objects too, which (as any language) affects usage. ๐
It really depends who you're talking to, but at least in an ~academic~ setting they are used to refer to different things at this point
Could be mistaken, but I believe Finnish has no gendered accusative third-party pronouns, for animate or inanimate subjects.
yea, and it is a big problem for us here. feminists are causing trouble and want a female counterpart to every male inanimate thing
Oh, that's kinda weird. What do you use to refer to people whose gender you do not know, like an unknown person that did an action in the past?
we go after looks
I'll be honest, as a non-native speaker, it always confused me greatly. I still haven't figured out how a given prefix is chosen, and it seems to vary by region, even.
if we didnt see them either, then voice
Dont think that's what they meant, Izu. Think they're asking "what pronoun if you're uncertain"
oh
Which in English at least, would be "they/them".
He/she
but what if you never saw them, like if they committed a crime? Here it would be "The suspect hid their face when they were robbing the store", but we use singular they commonly if you just don't know someone's gender (or if you want to be generic, like "The test subject raised their hand")
yea, we just assume
Interesting
we dont have a counterpart for them/they
Sorta do, though.
not really
โsieโ, at least for plurals ๐
Also the direct-subject variations of die, das, der
sie is for females, Sie (upper case S) is a formal version when you speak to someone or write to someone better than you
Also see it used to refer to groups/non-singular accusative subjects.
yep, sie is also used for groups
german is a clusterfuck of random stuff no one can remember
Still better than English ๐
Also think I was mixing up sie and die for my example here XD
sie and die can both be used for females and groups of things
depending on the context of course
English is horribly inconsistent. Pronunciation vs spelling is almost random, and we've clearly stolen bits and bobs from at least 3 other major languages to form ours.
At least with German, I can pronounce what I'm reading, even if I don't know what it means 
english inheritances from german after all
"inconsistent" ๐
there really is no need for 16 words to address another one
english has the, we have 16, not just der die das
Inversely, having that many means the intent is very clear. ๐
Assuming its used right, anyway
no, its too much
Russian doesn't seem to have any variation of "the", funny enough
https://media.studienkreis.de/assets/courses/media/bestimmte-artikel-tabelle-ca.png
we have all of these, english meanwhile has the
As I heard it explained once by a native speaker: Why would we need "the"? If there is a car here, and I say "get in car", you know what I'm referring to.
now good luck figuring out when and where you have to use which of these
why would we need all of the 16 ones? "Steig in Auto" would be enough already as well, no need for "Steig in das Auto"
but since its german, we concat every word we see and make it "Steig ins Auto" where "in" and "das" are in the same word
and if this isnt enough already, the language sounds like you are swearing when ordering a water in a restaurant
wasser?
Can't think of profanity that sounds similar, in English at least. xD
it sounds threatening to non-german speaking people though
Although having said that - the Deutsch word for "fat (bodied)" certainly sounds like a swear. 
the austrian version for being fat is great though
we dont say "you are fat", we say "heast du blada wapla" and i think thats beautiful

How GPU reliant is VRChat
extremely
Honestly though you will CPU bottleneck if you have even a half-decent GPU
if you play on Desktop, not much really
in vr it depends on the headset you use. In general its more CPU than GPU bound though
wouldn't be surprised if they were more shafted by ram bottlenecks
I sometimes pin my 8gb vram and 16gb ram
ram usage is just high, but nothing much. you can play with 16gb no problems. it just becomes a lot more stable with faster and more RAM
this
i almost never crash by random stuff since i upgraded to 32gb 3600 CL16 ram
I ocd my ram to 3200 cas16
cause for some reason my ram cant go to 3266 c15 on this motherboard
i had some random 2400mhz ram before that didnt even had a cooler on them
my previous pc had 4gb 1600mhz cas12 iirc
I would try and run vrc on it, but I already know it got 2 fps
probably because of CPU rather than RAM
it was a 3rd gen a6 
rip
NZ way we just say โchonkโ
Thatโs a chonky boi
fuck you

that's only for germans, non german german speakers don't talk that demanding ;)
(one of the reasons germans here are seen as rude and arrogant)
hello
sup
German
o-o
huh?
is the bar in volt dance club actually functional, like can you get drinks or..?
cuz it doesn't seem to be working for me 
Hi all! It's great to be here. My name is Stanislaw and I am a VR curator of Imagine Film Festival in Amsterdam. The festival is now in full swing and today we launched a limited 5-day run of Scarecrow VRC by Sngmoo Lee, which is a live-theatre piece from South Korea (for all 6DoF headsets including standaloine Quests). It's all staged in VR chat and was only shown once before at Raindance (and the crew is not sure when/if it's going to happen again as it requires quite a few technicians and a performer on standby). If anyone was interested in trying it out (from today until Tuesday), here is a booking link: https://www.imaginefilmfestival.nl/film/scarecrow-vrc/

morn
how can i turn off safe mod
Any code that Tupper would write... Is that Tupperware?
Does anyone know how to set up auto-dresser? I'm having trouble
Anyone interested in making 2 custom avatars?
Is vr chat chugging for anyone else?
You would have to pay them quite a bit
Also #avatar-search-old
Really?
Well it kinda depends on the avatar
It's really not that complicated
If you want one with custom animations, lots of toggles, completely from the ground up it can be up to like 200
But a really simple one might be like a couple bucks or free if youre lucky
Anyone of you guys wanna do it ๐
If you want a custom version of one already made like 5 dollars
but you usually won't find many going for free
I have absolutely no idea how to import or make avatars, still trying to figure that out
Which by the way if anyone wants to help me please do
restart pc 


you gotta download to 2018 version of unity to upload or make avatars
You can look up the rest online
can someone help me?
the vrchat website just keeps loading to no end when i try to log in on it, i dont know how to fix this issue
i merge vrchat and steam and my steam account gets stolen
something's off
and my account isn't there anymore
Sus?
I think your confused on how this works
where can i find vrchat tutorial with pictures in pdf format?
I think something's wrong with vrc's servers, at least in my area
Its super slow and not loading right for me and my friends
Anyone has an escanor avatat from the seven deadly sins?
I could give good avatars for it specially if it has animations
just go into a world-
Iโve obviously tried that
But there are not that much of Seven deadly sins avatar worlds
And the ones with the good avatars with animations got banned
yes?
Dose anybody have pain from naruto for quest 2??
Huh? I mean, Fettleibig isnt really a crazy insult
@frail rain try the Request Avatar channel
anyone on a quest2?
i got mine today and i'm having issues being able to charge while using it
it drains faster than it charges ๐ฆ
i got mine at around midday, it was aat 40%
NotImplementedException: The method or operation is not implemented.
anyone know how to fix?
this happen when i try to pubblish my avarta
doesnt the quest only last like 2 hours?
wait so is og oculus better
๐ฆ
idk
i do not like lcd, my home world is pitch black, it is no longer pitch black now
every dark world is way lesss relaxing
but resolution is slightly better
slightly
i play at 2 pixel oversample thru oculus debug
also can u play on the oculus whille charging
i was still editing the bitrate for link quality
i am plugged in but in one hour it died
do u think its the charger or the headset
to be honest
i think is my pc, not putting enough power out thru usb c
i wanted to ask other quest2 owners
if theirs chaarges faster than it drains
it says online quest 2 lasts 2 to 3 hours
Hello. I just bought VRCPlus and my rank was not increased. Already sent a ticket to the vrchat team. Is there something i dont know? I was a user before buying and I am still a user now.
i read the 2 amp provided power supply isn't enought to charge and play, and i think my mobo also is llimited to 1,5 or 2 amps
at 5v that's 10w
just wait a little sometimes servers take a bit to update, or try logout, restart vrch, login again @vocal shard
I have the Quest 2 plugged into a 2 Ah charger, and it slowly drains. But not as fast as what you said.
I can use it (plugged in) for about 12 hours.
Think so yeah
weird, is 10th gen intel, asus apex12
If your WiFi is good you can use virtual desktop and plug the link cable into a charger. Thatโs what I do.
Should be good
i wanted to have some sort of direct link from quest2 to pc since pc is using etherent
but i don't think is a thing yet, i must pass thru the router sadly
link is a thing though
i do have a 5 meters usb c to c cable
but there is something wrong with motherboard charging while using quest2
Rank upgrade is not guaranteed. It's just a boost in points.
This boost is relatively small, and has diminishing returns. If you are a Visitor, the boost will bring you to New User, enabling content upload capabilities. If you are a New User, it is possible that your rank may be boosted to User depending on how long youโve been playing. However, if you are a User or Known User, the boost is unlikely to have any affect on the Trust rank you have.

can I take a picture of you guys to show Santa what I want for Christmas
im back howdy folks
๐
@ruby trellis
Meow
dunno he/she pinged me first and i rolled with it
lemme check
not all of them
oh welp
then its a mystery
yall do you know any good games besides vrchat ?
Hey guys I have a question
go on mate
Whats your question
You probably get this a lot butt
butt?
Lol
How do I get dominos kon on oculus
buy pc connect quest to pc done
I did that before it was soooo laggy
specs?
Hmm
Uhm I have a hp chromebook
imagine him having 4gigs
I mean hp laptop
oh god i guessed it
specs?
Itโs not chrome
dxdiag program
Specs whatโs that
just open dxdiag and show me what ya got there
Ok imma have to do it when I get home doe
k
Itโs a windows 10
Better route him to task manager, probably easier for him to read from there
why so rude
I only use my hp laptop for unity and my sketchpad playing vrchat on it is hell itself
Man I wish I could get dominos kon on oculus
But itโs at my other house
Hmm
pong
Dunno what to tell ya
i suggest buying better machine
Generally, unless it's a particularly good laptop, you're not going to have ideal results on a laptop period.
Even many laptops marketed as being gaming ones, under perform for VR.
anyone knows good games besides vrchat
Thats what im doing thats the reason im buying a pc other than playing loads of games on it
Sometimes i'm happy i've a PC that at least can actually run VR even if hard on the edge
lucky for me mines doing well
Isn't cooling an issue with Laptops + VR?
Im buying my pc when its the summer sales tho so i dont need to die from how expensive it would have been
dunno have only a week
People gotta understand, Phone < Tablet < Laptop < Desktop.
Don't expect them to be the same thing.
totally not
rests hand on 80c keyboard
having good cooling
actually though they sell cooling pads and such lmao, but I could def see thermal throttling being an issue
Too many people seem to thing that laptops are just smaller "more modern" desktops. Is not the case. They have to make compromises to fit that form factor.
Can i show you the specs of the pc im getting in dm? i wanna. Know what you think of it
if you want o:
can i see it too?
Sure
"at least its portable"
That's a laptops role, yes.
If you're not carrying it around weekly, then you probably bought the wrong kind of machine.
(Unless you simply don't have enough space for a desktop, and really can't work around that.)
I won't get a laptop. Would sit at home like always.
Getting a laptop for general home school/office work would still make enough sense, just so long as you're not expecting much else from it.
I don't do either of this
Because to get one that can also be competitive for gaming performance, you're looking at paying roughly double the ammount.
Get a laptop just to be comfy in bed while you're working in unity or chilling/reading stuff or chatting
And a high spec gaming laptop is far larger, heavier and noisier, making it much less portable and non ideal for school/office work.
Yeah. What Silent said. That kinda thing makes enough sense.
I had a friend once who was looking to buy a high end gaming laptop.
After a good while of discussion about it and what he wanted to do, we ended up buying him both a desktop and a basic laptop, for less money.
The desktop was slightly more powerful than the laptop he was going to get. And the smaller laptop waaay more portable and longer battery life.
any good games?
yeah, so much money can be saved on that too, instead of buying full on gaming laptop 
Good VR games?
I suppose Half Life:Alyx is an easy mention.
Sairento, is an oldie far as VR games go, but was always a favourite of mine. Good if you want something high action that you can drop in and out of.
not only vr games im bored
Hmm. Dunno what your favourite genres are.
Ever played Planetside 2? Old mass multiplayer FPS, that's sort of bounced back lately.
Free to play simple shooty fun. Up to 2000 players in the battle at any one point.
well im more like games like yandere simulator hearts f iron tf2
That's quite a mix. :v
yup
speaking of old shooters, Unreal Tournament 3's pretty fun, though people don't play on it's servers anymore
other UTs are still pretty popular from what I remember though?
the few people that do play in UT3's servers have been playing since it came out lmao
maybe some rpgs?
any staff around??
don't call out people directly, report it to one of the active chat mods in a DM o:

Hmm
As Zuvali said.
And, it mattered enough for you to come here, generally you should always report it regardless of bot or human.
Just shoot a dm to one of us with a chat log and let us get rid of them 
That's basically the safe efford and potentiall protects other people from it. 
kk np next time theres a bot spamming members with virus links ill dm you personally ๐

Same multiple times
Why do I keep getting kicked lol
Wait nickname outdated
Internal error
Might need to ban @vocal shard off discord scamming saying "reported you for scamming on steam"
Reports via dms with evidence, not here
Contacted me on discord for that bs
Please send one of us a DM with screenshots. Thanks
That scams funny because you can mess with them really hard
I just told some person that pulled it on me exactly how the scam workes and they blocked me
Not worth the efford
what if you dm a scammer asking to get scammed lol
They'll block you for any fighting back / blocking off
I just say the n-word until they block me
I just spammed them something that make them think twice to do that kind of crap to me
Some dont
should still report it to a chat mod so that they don't try and pull the same thing on somebody else o:
One of my buddies got them to keep going by just pretending to be very dumb
True
Doesnt matter its a botnet basically
Hmm
They dont really seem to react to odd things and statements
oh shi thank you lad!
I went from user to trusted in 30 hours
I just oploaded a world when I had 250 hours and was user
A few hours later I was known and then 30 later trusted
And now I have 10 times that playtime lol
Who likes my status?
I stopped doing unity stuff in the past month or two
i dont know why but trusted users have big packed with everything avatars well at least peeps i saw
I have my avatars and worlds that im fine wirh and now focusing on other things
My avatars are all medium
half of them only cuz of dynbones
i have my avatars and world world aint uploaded yet
I have an object spawner world and my home world
Just a chill world to talk and relax in with friends
A place for me to get existential in lmao
well i could wor on some world i dont have anything else to do
My avatars range from medium to very poor depending on type of avatar
@molten gale i suck at few thing when i start making my world would you please help me with some mechanics?
I dont know how to use udon I used sdk 2
i fucked up the chairs last time
And im on break from stuff atm as I wanna focus on learning to code
so sdk2 it is
Udon# is a lot better than Udon
People who get their avatars to very poor puzzle me
worth using over SDK2 and the Nodes
Udon# is programming, right?
its a C# compiler for Udon, so yea
for making a new project, I'd recommend SDK3/Udon since SDK2 isn't getting any more content updates
That's unfortunately very easy
I need to learn c#
Udon Triggers Soon(TM)
there isnt much C# to learn
Yeah i know 0% about coding so it's as hard as normal udon for me
most things are Udon functions, and the rest is basic operations like if-else, while, for etc
CyanTriggers is pretty much going to be the SDK2 trigger system but for SDK3, as far as I can tell? o:
Well if you know what you are doing its not
yep it is
don't forget the 1,700 collider checks
I can do basic python stuff so
it's kinda hard. my very Poors are because of polys and meshes
Nah for worlds i still use sdk2 even new ones. Until CyanTriggers releases. I don't bother doing 30 steps where i don't know what what means to make a mirror trigger
Learned up to classes and such in a week
and that was the optimized avatar
i would still advise to get used to Udon# rather sooner than later
also just wondering Octo, is it your birthday? o:
Decimation, Atlasing, Dynbone Optimization etc
I do only Unity stuff not Blender so i can't use all optimization through Blender. But literally adding only one spring joint makes my avatars from medium to poor, another spring joint for the other hand immediately very poor
was chilling with a 370000 poly avatar dude last night. they were cool but that kinda hurt me lol
what are you using spring joints for
When im around friends that do avatar stuff and dont optimize I annoy them until they do
One single music animation will even make your excellent avatar immediately very poor
Ok i clarify, particle music animations
Audio in general can bloat the size of your world/avatar
particles are the least used component on avatars tbh
Why not, Particles are nice
I like my frames
only if you are not careful enough
I don't even have them turned on. I've had them off for like a year and never noticed them
I kinda wish there was a way for people to separate viewing performance for active and disabled objects.
The devs have explained why that's difficult to do well, but would still be nice.
My avatars actually have good runtime performance lol. The performance rating doesn't says anything about that
Even an excellent avatar can destroy your frames like crazy while a very poor one behaves like a good one
@molten gale I am trusted user too but I do models/avatars xD
I have everything shown except particles and lights
If my frames drop below 70 if I am alone in a room with you ill be concerned
Just because my avatars often have a lot of toggled gadgets and world object/props on them.
Makes their performance stats page look utterly nightmarish. Despite the basic avatar itself fitting into the Excellent category so long as I haven't enabled any of the extras.
Idk friends never complained about runtime performance for my avatars
hmm
Very poor rating doesn't automatically mean it destroys frames
I've found public avatars that actually drop me to 30 fps in a home world by myself
I only drop below 50 under very specific conditions so I cant say anything tho
it's actually gross lol
We could actually test it lol
I can go to publics only hiding animations, lights and shaders, mirror on, 20 players, 50+ fps
Im not good for frame testing lmao
?
you are on a 750ti, dont complain
anyone here has a link to newest cat plugin for blender
that person with the 1.7k collider checks was getting 60FPS with an I9 9900k and a 2080TI, apparently had no issues with that
im on a 1070ti/i5 7600k combo
me with i5 10030h and 2060
waiting for my Ryzen 7 5800x to be delivered
and pretty much everything else besides GPU
I've 3 avatar types. Optimized for publics, normal and animation.
I am gpu bottlenecked
honestly I'm starting to use more colliders . used to be really afraid of them. they're not too bad
i will be GPU bottlenecked once my Ryzen is here
my gpu frametime commonly is double of my cpu frametime
you cannot tell me a 1070ti is gonna keep up with a 5800x
A 2070S cant even closely keep up with a 10900k
A friend of mine complains at me that I never use colliders. :v
I only have 1 collider in each hand
Made a public avatar that didn't have any, and he seemed so disappointed. ^ ^;
also on the topic of dynamic bones, I'd highly recommend using Nara's unity tools to reduce the amount of DB transforms o:
I just use exclusions
My colliders don't get counted within the sdk for some reason, says 0 instead of 2
What do these tools actually do?
Exclusions are part of the dynbone component
I can't think of how it could automate reducing the count, in any way that wasn't already obvious.
Just select child bones that dont get affected
if I'm reading it correctly, it turns multiple dynamic bone chains to just one dynamic bone chain with some rotation constraints
https://github.com/Naraenda/NarasUnityTools at the bottom
Can even make long hair medium
That's my avatar stats for my optimized version. Everything below is green or better https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613108003935092736/830137702119768134/unknown.png
Oh... it uses constraints? Interesting. '-'
good for things like hair, capes, etc o:
I use an index on 140% supersampling btw
Does anyone know a Unity plugin that allows you to colour code game objects in the hierarchy?
It's such a ridiculously simple feature that would surely help so much. >_>
I sacrifice some performance to have better AA
Similar to how you can colour code layers in Photoshop. Purely for quick visual identification once you're hitting dozens of layers/objects.
Hmm
My normal and Animation one (especially the animation one) are very poor. Still don't eat frames.
time to make a world any good assets websites ?
My public avis are also like my optimized private one medium ranking with the only difference of not having particle bracelets cause i'm not allowed to use them on publics.
Did you know: Avis is a car rental service, while Ava/s is the short of Avatar/s. 
Thanks for coming to my ted talk. 
why care optimizing avatars when no one else is doing it anyway ๐คทโโ๏ธ
most people only care about optimized worlds
Because I care about others frames
that line of thinking is exactly why the Quest has such an infamous framerate issue lol
I sure hope that was a joke/sarcasm.
Sketchfab is great for finding assorted props and 3D models. Just be sure to check the "downloadable" checkbox when searching, or else risk heartbreak.
My quest ones are optimized with lower poly but i actually don't like how they look and on some points the texture broke because of that
Medium perf gang
unfortunately only to a degree
My Quest avis are poor ranking
*avas
Also be ready to optimise some of the models that come from it. Many are made for sake of art, not games.
unfortunately its true mostly
My quest avatar is quest good
unfortunately im world creator so i have to optimize it
gud
Baked lighting ftw
Yeah i'm not gonna go 1-2 materials on Quest
Bakery ftw
Depends, baked sadly also makes world size go bewm 
I dont have bakery haha
This trend has always amused/confused me. Considering how half of avatars in the game are notably heavier than the entire world they're in.
My quest avatars are 3 materials so they'll be stuck on poor even if everything else is good or better
why is it 3 materials tho?
i made a 400kb world once (was not just a plane with a mirror), and i never saw an avatar with that filesize
Eyes, bracelets and body
why would that be separate materials, that's stupidly wasted. 
I despise places like the old so called "Lag free box" because it was the literal opposite of what it advertised ON TOP of being boring.
i made a world with one block and call it free models link
So many 100+MB avatars in room of rain publics, I feel bad when I even hit 10MB
I like that eyes aren't combined with body texture.
Big open room with zero walls or dividers to occlude avatars with, and a giant mirror to ensure that you're rendering everyone in the room at all times no matter where you look.
Being able to use other eyes instead of the one from the body texture
Not an argument
my benchmark for performance is: when i can run it in full body vr at 100% SS at a steady 90, its gud enough for a world
Why not?
You can just change the eyes on the body texture.
How
By... putting in other eyes at the same location?
My hair and body tex are seperate on the quest ver because shaders
considering you're probably only using one shader on the quest you might as well make it all one material lol
Just gotta cut and copy paste the eyes you want onto the body texture. Super simple image editing job. Can do it even in MS-Paint these days.
Mmh... I don't know how that works but anyways i actually have a 1 material version of my avatar ready but the textures are still 3 different ones
Yeah
I have differences on the 2 mats sadly
Yep there is the issue. I don't know how that would work and i don't know how to combine textures
how would that work. you can't have one material but 3 different textures for it simultaniously.
Dont recall why
There's the issue
And if you want metallic or emission (can Quest actually do either of those?) you don't need a separate material either. Just make an emission/metallic map texture.
You said you have that.
That's why i don't use 1 material
Make a atlas, CAT's can do so fully automatically
I've a 1 material base but no textures i could use for it
CATS doesn't work for my avi
Doubt
*ava
very easy if you pick up using blender
It says no meshes found
You're likely just using it wrong then
I tried to decimate but it couldn't find meshes apparently
The mesh needs to be parented to an armature for CATS to recognise it
Mesh is the term for the actual visual geometry that makes up the model, so basically yes
Because that's actually outside of the armature
????????
Also wtf my phone has been in active use for an hour (spotify and discord) and dropped 5%
Will get worse over time
servers down?
Yeah I got it for my bday yesterday it has 7000mAh
If you select your mesh, and then shift-select your armature so both objects gets highlighted and press CTRL+P and choose armature deform, that might help your issue
Its 8x less battery use than my old phone in battery save mode lmao
Theres like 27k people online
try restarting Blender. Had that once, no matter what I did. Restart worked
@unreal verge https://gyazo.com/96c70347fe2798ed090ba1456a7b4c57
mine was stuck in the loading screen and then ''make sure u have an active internet connection'' and then i was able to log in
Did that but nope
How to use whatever eye texture you want on whatever other texture.
In 7 second gif form.
That's replacing but i don't have anything to replace. The textures are split into 3 parts.
Atlas.
Ok. Then it just needs atlasing yeah.
Is atlasing about the model or really only textures?
Out of curiosity, what does your Outliner looks right now?
Outliner?
Uhm, the treeview showing all things in the scene
you put multiple texture into one but it fixes the UV so they all wrap onto the mesh properly
Yes, needa scroll for a bit. No promises
i need help with publishing an avatar
In loft apartment, why does the TV not work whenever I give it an URL?
Are Quest users in the lobby?
So if you select the body and the CTRL-Click the armature and go to CATS it still says "No meshes found"?
??????
Just highlighting both?
On the Outliner preferably - it's a bit more direct. But I think CATS wants to have both
Important is to select the mesh first, and then the armature
If i do it like this it still says no meshes https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613108003935092736/830146253333463110/unknown.png
hmm, Body should be dark red, Armature orange
I'm in the Glub Glub Pub and there's this kid being annoying. Neither of the users, me included, can vote kick him out.
How does the vote kicking function work, anyhow?
Can I just drag an imagine in here or is that a Nono?
I'm gonna make world with one beautiful avatar
I got kicked cuz no one in the lobby knew me altho i got them friended
Jeez.
Imagine vrchat updating to new unity
I mean, I could spam the button and it wouldn't work.
Yup
I hope they do.
I accidentally installed unity 4.21 not 4.20 fuck
any1 want to give me nitro?
a similar content wipe would probably be planned for a 2018>2019 move, shader changes
I'm perfectly fine with the Unity version we have now lol
Is mayonnaise an instrument
everything's an instrument if you try hard enough
Hell yee
what youuu dooooing?
i was more worried about the mayonnaise instrument thing there. This sounds really interesting
i cant enter new Worlds (game crashes). Can somebody help me?
maybe somethin is corrupt try restartin if it aint help just reinstall
Mmh i don't understand atlasing. I'll watch a vid on that later if i get to it
okey
Don't know where i put my textures into it so it merges
No it wouldn't. That's why we're on the LTS release, and have updated multiple times with only minor issues.
Decimating works now though
The worst Unity update was moving from 5.6 to the 2017 LTS. Since it was the most dramatic shift going from standard branch to LTS branch.
All the updates since then have been relatively gentle.
One of them went by practically without anyone noticing.

2018 broke terrains entirely and caused a massive delay and several engine updates :3
i only figured that out because i was about to remake an world using terrains in 2018 during the beta
Is this anyone from here? Got that randomly lol https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613108003935092736/830154767295709214/unknown.png
he sent friend request
me neither
I've had a world using a 2 kilometre wide terrain since 5.6. Never noticed any issue with terrains myself. '-'
Also how does it say he's using an Oculus account but is online on PC whut
it was before the release though
Oh yeah forgot that exists
Literally forgot you can play on Oculus and PC because i always use SteamVR
I don't have to yay
It's rotting on my pc without ever getting opened
One time it even said it's broken and needed to be re-installed and i still was able to play with SteamVR
Quest
Maybe it's broken again. Happens sometimes but i don't notice until opening it myself
Hello I am new to this server and I have only played a few games on my quest 2
welcome! c:
Seems to still work, but well i don't use it for anything. Oculus software is just installed for the drivers.
Don't run it while playing
Is there a lfg channel?
wipe of worlds and avatars?
hi new to this server and I have only played a few games on my quest 2. hope u enjoy ur stay
lizzy jusk ask ppl if they want to hang out. ussually ppl respond
Like in disc u mean?
yeah in this channel or on public lobby one
thank you UwU
u dont need to hit reply with every msg. we are the only 2 ppl having a conversation here atm. also goodluck finding peeps to chill and vibe together
oki ty xD
internal screaming
when i was on an older pc, i always ran directly through oculus for performance reasons (rift s) so i wouldn't have to run vrchat through steamvr compositor through oculus compositor :')
so it has its place in my opinion
I bypass the oculus one
that's not an option with the rift s
i sold it for a quest 2 and i now use ALVR so i don't need oculus installed hallelujah
and i'm fortunate enough to be on a new computer now
๐
bruh
moment
Just to confirm nsfw is any gentile parts showing cuz if so why is my world being reported for nsfw like 3 times since update and it was adding friends avatars went through them and all sfw
also booba too
Booba
Boobs are genitals aren't they?
Booba is what?
Basically just don't have nudity
BOOBS
if your avatars are suggestive that's probably why - otherwise, some people just like to report worlds errouneously
Well if there's no exposed nudity or sexual animations or sounds idk why it would get reported
it wouldnt be reported as nsfw if it was pg
World report tags are only seen by the world creator afaik, so it shouldn't affect anything
Maybe a group of people are out for you?
if it has some form of nudity ie booba or genitals or very skimpy clothed avatars u risk nuke
doesnt matter if 1 or 50
I kinda wanna see the avatar not gonna lie, I'm curious what's getting reported
Hey, I kinda joined just to ask this but, does anybody know the "Hangout House" world well? I'm looking to find the key to the basement and I've been looking for days, I may be dumb
heyooooo
I was able to glitch myself into the basement anime room thing but I never found the key just to open the door
Ill drop it in dms
Thats the weirdest question Iโve seen so far
Chesticles
Ah yes
I call em chest pillows
But the only way I've been able to enter the room is with the invisible chair and a 2nd person showing me in
wait are condoms just a cock hat
Yea
Hmmm yep

Protective hats
Helmets?
Hmm masks
Yeah
Gloves
Socks?
Yes
Contexxxxxxt
Yes

Context is important, but does it make it less strange? Nah.
Kind of??
XD
Lol
Hello everyone I have a little question. Yesterday i was playing in a World with people and it was very fun, but i can't Remember the name of the World. Is there a way to See the Worlds i went to the few last times ? Thanks :)
there's a Recent world list in the worlds tab
^
Hey all ๐๐
lets say theoretically when the the the the the the is the does that make the the factual or is the the when the the the?
No
correct
Thanx ! I'm new to vrchat. How do we access to this ?
Hello everyone
It's near the bottom of the Worlds list c:
Thxx
yw!
rt
no rules
Well.. time for me to upload a test.. followed by getting in vrchat. where i will probably stay for a while... go in to test but spend the next few hours on some friends world chatting randomness as usual.
and once again I'm at like 500 kb/s download rate, again. Man this game is fun as fuck
oh no wait it stopped completely
sorry, Modem speed.
I am having A Problem.... My Mic is on In game, and shows to be On out of The Game... But after 10 Minutes of play time in Vrchat, It stops Picking Up My audio. I dont know whats WRONG!
Quest...
Without Link. I already Looked On reddit for answers, And Nobody Seemed to have anything. My Mic Is working Fine, And Doesnt Cut out Under Normal Circumstances. I even Checked a Browser App On The quest to see if it was picking Up Mic audio. It was. I Find that My Mic Only Works When I Leave the game and go back in. I dont know why it stops.
Its only Been happening Since this morning.
Okay. Glad To Know that Its Not a problem With My quest Or My Version Of Vrchat.
Imagine how bad it would be if it became 18+
ty
VRChat just randomly crashed-
It does that
Try reinstall
I hope vr chat is working fine in a couple of hours. I wanted to play
any updates on the return of steel and gold map to vrchat?
Anyone good with worlds? I have a couple small things i need help fixing
Make sure you meet the requirements to use VRChat! They're listed on our website.
yeah, it's probably fixed with a restart
I'm not sure if this is a commonly voiced complaint/concern but VRChat has plenty of <13 users.
According to the Steam Terms of Service:
You may not become a subscriber if you are under the age of 13.
I'm just concerned Valve may catch wind of this and do something about it. But I'm pretty sure VRChat isn't meant for <13s.
Most online services require 13+ due to child privacy laws AFAIK
Obviously.
hey where can I ask for anyone if they got a good world to go to?
im a bit confused ;-;
You can probably just ask here or you can even ask people at random worlds in vrchat if they have recommendations
well does anyone here have recommendations ๐
What kind of stuff do you like?? Hangout worlds, games, horror, comedy??
well Avatar world for boy/man avatars
Ah. There's the Finnish Puppy world....wolfy's....uhhhhh. Hm. Espaiderman I think is another creator's name?? There's also Godfall's cozy kamui. I'm not 100% sure as I don't often wander around for male avatars but if you go through the avatar worlds section in the world list, there's bound to be some there.
Finnish Puppy's avatar world?
Yeah you can just search Finnish Puppy under the world list
I really only know e-boy worlds lmfao so if you're looking for other stuff, other people may have better recommendations
someone insult me please
Nah not worth the time
just a quick fuck you dude
I mean if u read what I said itโs kinda a roast
@steel dagger you can't handle it your too weak
like dude you spent time typing that which took more time than saying fuck you
I just need someone to say fuck you to me
Lol
me: comes in to general to see what the vrchat discord community is like
I accidentally made pretty neet wallpaper in vrchat
you haven't seen anything
well... so far I've seen swearing and hate
Swearing? ah yes.. naughty people.
anyone know how to fix the 10 fps lock?
No thats preety much how we all speak..
Moneko is Popeye because he Glug Glug Glugs
I just saw something unusual.
Reset the game or try reinstalling
Just set the wrong reply
np.. amusing though. lol
my fps is fine, my boyfriends fps bounces from 10 to 45 back to 10, it may be steamvr
i request but it doesnt show for him
Reset and try
What are his specs
No I didn't say that for you
ah
@carmine egret Please report these to us chat mod's instead of calling out names here
What are his specs and also like I said reinstall the game just in case
That way we can server wide deal with the issue.
Your good intentions in all honor, but random warning sadly also have abuse potential so we need to treat all the same and ask you to DM us the logs so we can judge and take propper action.
Thanks. 
i not sure his specs but he normally avg around 45 fps
With vr?
yes vr
But does he get that with a lot of people or by himself
Hmm maybe just try deleting cache and if it doesn't work just reinstall
!cleancache
You can clean cache by deleting everything within C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat apart from config.json if you have it
Is vr Chat Working Now?
There are 39981 users in VRChat currently
I'm not a possum
A Human Called Me a possum
Yes, yes you are!
You literally pinged me, I'm supposed to be asking questions
NO
!online
There are 40301 users in VRChat currently
NO IM NOT
and people still say it's a dead game
epic fail
Hello!
Hello @hidden escarp
I have a question is possible to put a pdf or a way to open up epub or pdf and share with friends bc i like to read and i found a few others that said it was a good idea do i have to get a patation and able to show
What you are reading too and they can read your book
Im sorry i made it confusing
VRChat as a game should not have the right to take enough resources to crash my entire PC, just saying
Interesting enough that sound still works ๐ค as my music plays and I stare at my incredibly hard-frozen screen ๐
a side effect of giving content creators more control
Oh woot, the task manager came through like a homie so I was actually just frozen for 60 seconds lol
like handing a wizard spellbook to a malicious wizard/lich
Well I doubt it means anything since names can be spoofed, but beware https://i.imgur.com/ZYhNII0.png
For some reason I'm unable to load into my home world when I start the game?
Is there no way for me to set up my PC to restrict the amount of resources VRChat can take?
Or something that would detect that a crasher is attemping to yeet me and just force close the game before it can do more damage?
Hey I got a question about a specific world called "Hangout House"
There's a locked basement, I know there's a key somewhere, I've found it before a long time ago, but I can't find it now or remember what it was
Maybe you can look it up on youtube
Key is hanging I think next to refrigerator
Its next to the fridge on the key rack.
lol beat u to it
Ooh, thank you
old but gold* is a better term
True
I used to go there all the time
Well ever since video players kinda became standard the world got less players

yeah VRchat exploded dureing lockdown and the wave of quest buying

VRchat: Sees a bunch of new users ๐๐ง "DADDY CHILL!!!" Epicly explodes
if anyone here is good with adding features for world development requiring user interaction I posted in the world-development channel looking for some help with something
I'm new to vrchat and I was wondering if someone would show me around a bit. I'm 14 but im on pc
show you around like how, do you need avatars or..
WHAT TH-
tons of people getting banned again oof just when i thought vrc was trying to fix what they did
The TOS and moderation practices haven't changed, nor were they ever confirmed to be - they're just talking with the developers of certain client modifications
That's lots of players. Was it ever that high?
don't think so, there was an erroneous 50k number before but that was an API bug
highest legitimate number I'm finding is like 43k o:
Hey guys, was the bhaptics capability pulled froM VR chat?
Thank you for the food
