Mozzarella covered toes

🤮
Excuse meeee
That can't be healthy.
whos idea was it to put and hour time on here i say take it off and let gen 1 have it
Its not
Never heard of it but I’m curious as to what it is
internet emotional support 😔
Emotional Damage
Hugs
Maan
That sounds nice 😟
Its all good its funny to joke about so i feel like a standup comedian despite being in a wheelchair
Hugs
Conspiracy theory in the making
Im actually so bored now 🤩
Yeah call out posts aren't permitted, sorry
Whatever helps ya get through the day, I suppose.
Hope things get better for you soon.
i miss the dancing eboys ): & understandable
How many e boys do you have under your sleeve
I'm cold cause I don't have the warmth of vr chat comforting me 😩
Vrchat is down, Sadge
Ik how u feel @stoic girder. I once broke my right arm in 1st grade by jumping off a chair trying to grab monkey bars at recess and yet i failed
1 currently he’s sleeping on call while i wait for vrchat to get back up bc i have no life

That’s cute not me though y’all stay safe
I jumped off a swingset and my arm got stuck behind the chain and so I fell backwards and broke my arm QwQ
one time in kindergarten a boy slapped me because i didnt have a crush on him
Youch! X<
I've never actually broken a bone.
In kindergarten I watched a kid vomit in his sleep
Oh
I’ve only broken pinky toes
right then and there i vowed that boys r smelly and losers, but then i went to a fbt heaven and fell in love with the dancing eboysss
@covert chasm u wanna watch a anime
I love how there is utmost chaos in the other general and here people are just chillin LMAO
I got tackled in a football game and my pointer finger was straight out and hit right into the ground. Broke my finger and the bone also shifted.
How the hell u vomit in ur sleep like wtf
What a story to tell truthfully invigorating
They lost their mirrors
It's nice to chill
my gt 650 and i3-6100t specs caused this outage :)
thats a big word for me pls dumb it down a bit i didnt graduate high school
Smh shame
I honestly have no clue😭 he just woke up and there was vomit all over him I slept right next to him we had our heads down
lmao mhm mhm to be chill is the way mhm mhm
Bruh mirror dwellers tweakin out 💀
i wanna watch anime
Invigorating, made you feel full of vigor, or energy.
, what anime you watch typically?
why they all hating on mirror dwellers we all do it DONT lie to make urself look better & none tbh i just wanna get into it
Are the severs back up? I heard they were but idk
they’re not
Doesn't look like it
They will post when they are up
I’m chilling in my home world rn waiting on it to be fixed for others
where
Got it
well the websites back up
Yeah login is down right now
up & stable?
the website is not up
Tried logging in and my oculus started smoking.
I usually see mirrors as our brains finding a work-around for the lack of a sense of touch in the VR world.
Like, we can't tell what our faces are doing in vr because we can't feel anything, so we instinctually look for a way to know without feeling.
Ie; mirrors.
Man brought facts to the table and served it cold
TIL
i spent well over $1200 on this game i deserve to sit in a mirror in peace and watch eboys dance
i was just about to make a new friend, then they couldnt add me back, and i left thinking it was a me problem, and now im friendless :(
someone be my friend
bows dramatically
lol
https://store.steampowered.com/app/394690/Tower_Unite/ best social game

But actually, I think that might be the reason as to why, I feel sorta better if I can see what I’m doing
ill be your friend dont worry
felt

Died
Same.
Tbh, neuroplasticity is a fascinating subject. ^u^
I highly recommend looking into it!
period pooh
Can someone give me the nutter butter skin
this gives me time to pee
its quest only now
I took a course in psychology and am also looking into sociology! I find the brain fascinating and what we do and why we do it
alright everyone. time to stock up on alcohol, grab a snack, and hydrate xD
That's awesome! 🤩
i never see people take a break and go pee in vr it makes me question if they sit in diapers ngl
Someone wanna meet me in the kitchen, I’m afraid of the dark..
I will
I gotta meet some of y’all in vr, I think it would be fun
we pay these people for this "service"
Thx ☺️
It'd be interesting at the very least!
im kinda a dick in vr or mute theres no in between && ill meet u in the kitchen yukio
be patient
@covert chasm can you bring my dad back?
im just mute lol.

I feel like general 2 is more calm 😅
Reeeeeeeeeeee

Thx too ☺️
Here’s a potato 🥔

I don’t know how long this stuff usually takes tbh
I just wanna cuddle with my freind but nooo vrchat had to go down

Considering it’s a problem that happened instantly to many people it might take a while
Is vrchat still down

Anyways this general can’t be as bad as the other one rightttt?
We chill
E
It’s…a nightmare

Yeah staff is working on it
Lol
sorry i don't much about it when its down. plus in the meantime i can just play fnf
in the meantime i think most of us can touch grass
I genuinely want to know, how long are we expecting things to be down? Like an hour or two?
Just alternate between both while waiting for the timers haha
That moment when you met your bf through vr and so u only get to cuddle with him through vr chat 😩 #HeartBeenBrokeSoManyTimes
that moment when i didn't ask B)
:0
bruh you dont gotta be that rude
SLAY
Sad 😔
i want chicken for some reason
Pffft also when tf is vrchat gonna work
Thats a Great question
Oh it’s storming outside
Everyone's so mean here lmao
see #server-status o:
I just want to get on and talk to my drunk friend
whos being mean to you 
Zu, where'd you go when we were in the Pug? 
We did but like we waiting for said update 😩
is it going to take a day
i walked up, broke your physbones, and hid in the kitchen-y area
Probably all night
Of course you did.
imma stay up if i have to to be honest
welp i guess ill just wait another hour then go to bed
Everyone here is mean its how vrchat is
i try to be nice
Lol but it's also extremely chaotic and I love it😂💖
I met tons of ppl on vr chat and they're all basically a whole family now :D we all hangout almost every day!!😊
There was a bumble bee in my room today so I caught it and let it free outside
So cute, I love bees
servers are finally back up
im nice but if someone makes me mad well then imma have to get not so friendly with them, i have a family in vrchat its cool
lmaoo
Are they actually tho cause like I've typed my username and password wayyyy too many times to count ;-;
Is it cap
🧢🧢🧢🧢
More people are able to get on
its not
They are not
VV
If the servers are back up, it'll be announced in #server-status
don't trust one random person's reports lol
Exactly!
i can confirm the servers are back up
launched in desktop to see if he was lying
It’s tRUEEE
No it’s not
I second
Gen-1 is hell I have a headache from looking at it
Oh I got in!
Crying and throwing up
so yeah, feel free to add me tonight - slicedtacos
see y'all there!!
I got on
And as soon as I join gen 2 it goes back up and I can return to hell-1 aaaaAAAA
Tryna play some drinking games dm me
imma get on in a little but see ya there
Hmmmmmmm, now that i think about it, it may not be the best idea to try to upload an avatar while there's an outage going on...
And I’m out again.. stupid me reloaded the page after being in
I was trying to look at my friends list but it wouldn’t load
Siggghh
Finallyyyyyy!!
It’s not working for me it’s fake
^
It’s kinda working but not at the same time
Truly
So it's still unstable...
Yep
We chill in gen 2 v
Tell me why general-2 is waaaayyyyy less hectic than general-1😂😂
general-1 is the first channel in the list you can talk in
I managed to get In!!!
How
Ahhh okay. Yeah gen-2 is a lot more chill
Im not sure but I’m not questioning it. I just closed the game and relaunched it
Got it I’ll try that
It's calm here
It is!!
Vrchat is not completely done it’s still having issues
I was just playing a round of Vampire Survivors while watching everyone spazz out.. Now I can think here lol
Yeah it’s still messy but I think it works randomly, cause I was having issues just till now from like 9 pm
well the website is working now
hey you might want to listen to Zuvali
Yeah, the website is actually working okay too
Woohoo now I can see what my friends are doing 👀
Yeah we know, but just cause people say it’s working for them doesn’t mean it’s a lie

I was able to get on lol
what the heck its working
Going to test on desktop, wish me luck <#
Ok I got in
Nicee!
vrchat is nowhere near done and will continue to have issues until its eventual predecesor comes to fruition
fixed that for you
👀 bone lab
It will always have issues, but we put up with it haha
Isn’t it still in beta?
I think it will always be haha
When you lag out 🥲
Anyone havong waist tracking issues with ik beta?
I keep getting lagged out lmao
back in my day you could just run a lan server of an online game even if the game servers were down
👴
True bro ✊ 😔
is it really
you can run a private server in unity kind of
not really multiplayer
so many current day games are gonna die one day and servers are gonna go away and we won't be able to play them because the devs didn't add lan functionality
you can still play old games multiplayer using lan to online with hamachi
i still believe devs should go out of they're way to provide server hosting tools to keep the game alive past the point where devs support it
whether that would be lan or a dedicated server you can connect to with an ip
yes but there's most likely a dev mode out there that has everything unlocked they could just enable for lan or community dedicated servers
i don't believe progression systems are important to the core experience and the core experience should be preserved
okay then how does it work
while ordinarily I'd agree that games-as-a-service should have an end-of-life plan/way of preserving the game after it shuts down, that isn't really applicable to VRChat as effectively all of the content ingame is user-generated. The creators can archive their own content, since..they made it lol
the content being made in Unity is helpful too, as porting a world made for VRChat to a standalone Unity executable wouldn't be too difficult, depending on the world ofc
also no, that's not how that works lol, there isn't a secret dev mode that changes VRChat's entire network structure
surely they host local servers like any other devs for debugging purposes
yes but the exception could be made with valve games
they have all those things but you can still play the core experience with no progression or unlockable items in a lan server
okay lets say you are right
it isn't as easy as i think to have lan servers running on vrchat
i think they should work on a solution for that for the game to be preserved past the point of the servers going down
@cobalt basalt
yes i agree but like you said creators can preserve their own work (worlds) on modDB or gamebanana or something and the devs could make it a simple drag and drop into a worlds folder
??
okay i'll put it in ooga booga terms
you play quake multiplayer
you go to modDB download quake multiplayer map
you make all your friends download same map and put in game files
you host lan server
peer-to-peer is ancient dude
i don't know what modern multiplayer games you are playing
peer-to-peer killed my wife and children that's how bad it is
if anything we've switched more to the dedicated server model
peer-2-peer is just a relic of the ps3/xbox360 era
the issue is the dedicated server hosting tools are locked behind closed doors
oh i knew vrchat was mostly client sided but i didn't know it was this bad
vrc isn't peer-to-peer, they use Photon servers
cheating is an issue in every peer-2-peer game
just join a gta online lobby
the only peer-2-peer only games i can think of are gta online and onward vr (god rest its soul)
i can think of indie games having peer-2-peer but not much else
okay now that i think about it i only play pvp games
First night open mic was amazing. I met two awesome new friends tonight.
true
but it also makes cheating extremely easy
there is a pretty big pvp community for destiny from what i've seen
god rest its soul
😭
but on servers you can actually limit what cheaters can do
spinbotting is all technically possible if you were just really godly at spinning in circles and clicking heads
in a peer-2-peer game (gta online) that player would be teleporting everyone to their location with godmode and infinite speed spawning cages and rockets onto the players
yeah and they are trying to save it by adding a few new weathers and calling it overwatch 2
👍 good game
this is from 2 years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oVuSukS5Gk
fair
people working on gta online networking have no fucking idea what they are doing
for all i know it could be a toddler just pressing buttons
this is from 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxmJeLUEadg
aimbotting is always gonna be technically possible with every game
ive seen aim hacks that just scan the image for enemies now and move the mouse to them
that's probably very easy to detect as a hack, so it's most likely insta-ban, but look at the 2020 video in minute 2:00
it's kinda like that
it's people shooting anywhere and people dyiing (i.e. the view doesn't even change)
well that was 2020 so hopefully it's been patched by now
i always assumed Hanzo arrows were server sided since i was really bad at Hanzo
Slow mode?
hi
This slowmode
@cursive vale I like your pfp
Thx also hello froge
Np and hellooo
How you doin
Doing good wbu
Pretty good thxx
Noice
Does anyone have a Montgomery Gator Green Room world that I could visit to make my own home world?
What.
Fnaf Security Breach inspired world I'm looking for.
i can hear nothing in vr chat help
i ddint mean to delete that oops
what are you on?
Meth wby
What
Pretty clear statement
Worst part is I've done it before lol
As in said meth instead of console
anyone wanna play vrc in a bit? dm me
Hello everyone, I really need your help. I recently started playing vrchat again. The only problem is when I started playing again I couldn't get into my home map. I therefore had to delete steam as well as the game. I downloaded it again but now my game is blurry, I have 18fps and there is a blur effect that follows the contours of my character. You should know that I have downloaded the latest Pilots from Geforece experience and I have directx 12 to install, I hope you could help me I can't find a solution
what device are you on? desktop, quest…? whatever else there is-
oculus quest 1 with air link
on steam it's writte the game working with directx 11 and i have install directx 12 so maybe it's that but i m not sure, and i want to know if somebody play rvchat with directx 12
Thats happening to me too bro
This i mean
have you play mhw before ?
whats mhw
monster hunter world
No?
when i go in graffique of the game i have try an otpion wityh directx 12 and my game crached
Idk
so you have download directx 11?
When i open vrchat i wait a bit doesnt matter then static of smth appears and my game lags
or you have found an option for downgrade directx 12
Dont know why that happens and its really annoying
This didnt happen when i played 2 years ago
No i just open the game
Doesnt ask me anything
ok
Ill send ss when it happens rn
you see something like water distorsion near to your body or something like that ?
no
what did you see ?
My screen is like glitching or smth dont know how to describe it
It allways causes lag ill sned u ss in pc
No
no
damn
Sorry
nah its fine lmao
Hate to point out the obvious
yeaaah
not sorry B)
Be sorry 🙁
:((
B)
sadge
anyone wanna play soon dm me
how can I mute, block or hide peoples, without finding and reaching them in front of me?
Because mostly the annoying peoples are hiding under the world, or flying to fast with a to tiny avatar around and slows down your FPS to a diashow with their performance wasting avatars...
anyone from sweden? lol
open the quick menu and click on someone, then use the left/right arrows at the top to scroll through players in the instance
what do you mena with click on someone?
Yo
No I'm from poland
Also does anyone know how to fix certain avatars that are moving like on PC or just staying idol
Cause some of my avatars are not moving their hands
Or walking like on pc
And bigger avatars I see through their shirts
And I can't see them in mirrors too
I think it's a bug
finally! there it is.
Does anyone know?
as in open the quick menu and point your off-hand at someone in the world, and click on them
as if you were cloning their avatar
msnsjsjdh
now that im learning how to make VRC avatars from scratch (not using premade models or anything) I have a newfound respect for those who make worlds and avatars
can chu teach me the ropes of norma l avi makin/editin?
i honestly have no clue, just started today, firstly need to learn to make models using blender but i need to learn how to use blender first lol
o
its a huge thing
its the dunning kruger effect in a nutshell
at first i thought it shouldnt be too hard but now that ive learned a bit about it i now realize i knew literally nothing
I get turning stickers off because of the flood of users when the servers where down but that's not happening anymore.
Doesn't really make sense to allow them here, but not in #vrchat-general-1 imo.
Let alone allow them in every other thread..
might've just not got around to re-enabling it? 🤷

#vrchat-general-2 is where the cool kids hang out
I wana be cool
No sticker general 1 is for lame-os
Ewww
You're cool
Yay!
Now post a sticker or else
Woooo
Welcome to general 2 where the chat is slow but much more interesting most of the time.
Like ur mom
Dam
I'm going for a walk right now sipping on my smoothie in the middle of a desert. So beautiful out. Full moon. Clear sky. No sound other than the crickets.
I wnaa seeeee
takes photo, is pitch black with a giant white blurry glare from the moon
I miss my D800E
So many amazing photos. Wish I never sold that. Biggest regret.
I'd love to get a D810 someday, prices are coming down on em. Seen em under a grand.
Still got some of my prime lenses. But my only DSLR is a shitty D3400
D3400 with a massive 20mm F1.4 is so stupid looking
Camera is literally smaller than the lens.
Anyone wanna play?
Most people here can't play, otherwise they would be on. Just hop into a random world and give it a go
Sometimes ppl are on here bc their friends aren't on and they need a person to playbwith
joining random worlds and asking people to play with you only works about once every 50 times
if only the mods made a feckin lfg channel

Anyone know any Unreal Engine worlds?
I've only seen one but all you really do in it is look at a mirror and back with balls
Hey Grassnake 👋 Was just looking through random discord chats. Didn't expect to see you ^w^
Hope you're doing well
qhat
What does that even mean
Like a world from unreal engine imported into vrc?
Worlds that use Unreal Engine
There's only one I've seen
Vrchat uses the unity game engine
So I have no clue what ur on about
Maybe u can be a bit more specific or link the world? Cuz I think ur confused @dim peak
No, you've seen 0 world's that use Unreal Engine lmfao
dam guess I gotta explore more worlds then
Gotta find these unreal engine worlds

me omw to make a world in quake engine:
nut
omw making a udon brainfuck compiler. /s
*
(Tbh. I wouldn't be surprised if some memester actually did that.
)
Nruh. No. 
Hey guys, So backstory. I am making a full on outfit IRL, and a little bit is based off VrChats main Avatar designs. Well so far so great, I have the chains for the sleeves, the X sleeves, the good parts. It's all going to plan, but I need help with something. The X-O glasses. I can't find them anywhere for the life of me. No tags words, nothing shows up for them. I only ever see the glasses In games. Can somebody help me find a pair for my outfit?
I knew they were somewhere, saw them before. No problem!!
Oooh you wanted real ones
me omw to make a vrchat world using assembly
Does anyone have tori in grand piece online (buying it for 20 dollars)
What?
does anyone else HATE it when an avatar has wayyy too much physics?
to the point where it just looks bad?
and the worst part is is the letdown when a good looking avatar just gets completely fucked when you decide to take a step forward or something
which wouldnt be a problem if there was an avatar physics toggle but unfortunately there isnt ):
This also means much better avatar performance.
Don't mind my 35 physbone components avatar (AKA the sole reason my avatar is in the very poor performance category instead of just the poor performance category). Though the label is somewhat deceiving since overall avatar performance is still very good.
Correction: those are catjam enhancers.
Hey can someone help me with an issue I’ve rebooted my game and my oculus, the circle menu doesn’t let me click on expressions, options, or the icons
Does the menu open?
Yeah but I mean I can’t click on anything
It’s not greyed out I legit just can’t click it
You probably changed the selection method accidentally
On my bindings?
No, for the action menu. There's two selection methods possible that you can set for it in the settings menu in the action menu
One is flick select and the other is click select. I'm just having a brain fart so can't remember how it works as it's been a very long times since I ever changed it.
Try hovering over an option and clicking with the analog stick, or just hover there for a second and let go. I honestly forget how the other one works lmfao
I had to hold the trigger down
Yeah.
Oh that's an ugly url thanks Google. But it explains it more in the docs
You can change that in the settings in the action menu itself.
Thank you sm
Weird the apps function to report messages on this discord server appears to be broken for me.
Sometimes you need to restart discord if it vanishes.
It's different this time, It either won't load or show up(even after restarting discord several times in this case 8 times to help rule out bad luck).
Ctrl + r
Who’s gonna get on vr chat tonight
Around 60k people
I mean are any of you guys
Lmao. Maybe. I need to charge my controllers q.q
Can a fallback avatar not be a generic avatar?
Are there any special requirements for generic ones? The tab for enabling it as a fallback seems to be inaccessible even though the avatar is excellent.
Looks like the documentation needs to be updated it doesn't mention this requirement
oh i didnt know it had to be humanoid
sup
Unfortunately
I see you.
In game?
Yep.
I don't see you
Look to your left.
Guys do I get LEGO boba fett throne room or LEGO bad batch shuttle
anyone wanna play vrc
Throne
Ok but why I need a reason
I don’t have a reason other then Boba Fett
I have boba fett and his ship
Tomorrow sure it’s 12:09am
Wait
It’s already tomorrow
f
Wigma it’s me I’m getting the boba fett throne it’s not as good as it looks but it’s better then the bad batch and I did need a building so thanks for the help
I don't know. Seems like the frog might enjoy it a little too much.
Frog
The audacity of you thinking I'm a frog. 🙄
Bruh.
I'm so funny
Does someone want to play vr chat with me? I'm Spanish but I can speak a little bit of English
Who wants to get on vr chat with me?
anyone know a good discord server to meet vrchat players? I'm looking to get to know people who I can hang out with on vrchat (preferably ages 16/17+) but I don't know who to ask or what servers would have the type of people I'd hang out with. I'd like to hang out around chill people around my age (I'm 18 but sound younger) who might play some minigames here and there.
this discord seems more toward vrchat development than a social house so thats why im asking
It kinda is, but general and random I’ve seen people become friends
No clue tbh
alright
quick question is osc on quest
Mr. froge
Everyone likes frogs yes
The audacity of you to think I'm a frog.
is anyone going to Fanime con 2022 in San Jose Ca?
How would this work..?
it is, yes
by sending OSC messages to the Quest's IP, over port 9000
port deez
That feeling when you finish building your avatar in unity, but haven't played the game enough to actually upload it and test it
Buy one month of VRC+

Who’s getting on vr chat
Ew no
....
"Supporting a game you enjoy with a single 10$ donation to be able to upload your avatar right away? Gross!"
Yeah. They can barely keep the thing from being crashed every 10 minutes
Lmfao
Or keep kids out
Games more stable than it's ever been. Ok bro. Cheers
Tell that to the crashers
Lmfao
I play this game, but think helping fund it is gross even though money will help fix the issues I shit all over it for.
Ah yes money will fix all the issues. Even though crashers have been an issue since the beginning and we've never fixed it.
Don't get me wrong, I like the game and bought vrc+ a long time ago. But after all this time has passed it just feels as though nothing has changed
I mean I would have liked to get avatar dynamics a year ago instead of now, but they have added lots of stuff and still are
Yea they have like this complex of superiority, trying to inject fear on others so they treat them like superiors, or that's what i guess since a world creator gave a gang all the freedom to do whatever they want on his world as long as they don't crash him
So unless you are in favor of removing upload rights or can suggest a magical fix that has not been invented yet there is just really no way to prevent it.
Tho afaik they are not a lot of ppl, so work on vrchat is going to be slower than bigger companies, and they also wouldn't want to make "nintendo hire thus man-tier" stuff on their game
Maybe don't allow people to upload avatars with 700milion polys?
Yea das trye
Then they will just use other ways
Performance upload limit would be cool, even more now that i see people bragging about how heavy their avatats are
Then you fix those other ways as they come up. That's how bug fixing works
The problem is that shaders are unreadable in game afaik
It really comes down to not allowing anything to be uploaded or there still being a way to crash
You get RecRoom style premade assets that you can combine or well, what we got.
And shaders are the biggest lag issue
This is not just a 'bug' its a physical limitation of the software and hardware that we had since day 1 of computer technology.
So there's no way to possibly track shaders?
Again- Even if we can, there are a lot of other ways to crash people if someone really wants to
Depends on whether you can fix them or not. I'm not one to just give up and say. "oh well they're just gonna find another way to do it. Lets just leave it as bad as it is"
If i get it correctly shaders are compiled as asm programs, and cannot be acessed with unity after compiling
Well if an unfixable issue vs a problem that devs are just choosing to not fix that changes things
Well if you find a way the vrchat team is probably interested
So you are in favor of harshly limiting uploading, with that ruining almost all avatars you see and ruining all creativity within the game for to lower the odds of being crashed without even getting rid of it?
(i am in favor)
I never said harshly limiting uploads. Just don't let people upload avatars with 700 million polys like wtf
But doing that really solves nothing..
Almost no crasher since 2016 has been a polygon crasher
At best they are just laggy
Ok
Well eitherway I hate crashers, and whether the devs choose not to fix it or simply can't makes a huge difference.
It's really a fact that they would have to dedicate dev time to that basically full time, i don't think their team is large enough for that when they have so much on their plate as it is
Also if you ever want someone to learn about VRchat and its community
The 'People Make Games' video on it is top tier
Don't cross-post, please.
My bad, im deleting this one
İ didnt see the user support tab before i post to this chat my bad :)
Anyone wanna recommend me fun lobbies to start with?
Depends what you're looking for. Do you want an actual game lobby, a chill space to talk to people, or a more high energy place to talk to people?
AAA
Hi everyone! This is my first time here. I am looking to create a VR simulation for my dissertation regarding mental health and mental health stigma. Anyone interested in helping me out?
no rules broken lol
oh lord, this again
lmao what
and..deletes messages before I can properly respond to it
okay
general-2 moment lul
@noble depot feel free to express yourself
that site you mentioned is well known about, but there's not much VRChat can do about it as they're not the owners of the copyrighted content hosted there. You, on the other hand, are, and thus you could send a DMCA claim against the site for your content. Note that sending a DMCA begins a legal process, don't start legal processes without contacting a lawyer first, and not some rando on discord.
Ripping is not possible to stop, period. You can make it more difficult sure, and things are being done about that, but stopping it completely is not possible unfortunately.
<#vrchat-general-1 message>
<#vrchat-general-1 message>
etc
Things are absolutely being done, but publicly announcing the specifics of that would be giving a heads-up to bad actors
"here's instructions on how to get around the new protections we're making"
If you do decide to go down the legal route, make sure you own the full rights to your content, and contact a lawyer.
Lmao that's what you meant
the point was not that. it was that since months there are no real security improvements. rippers already work on getting Quest Avis ripped too.
if they can see it, they can rip it. thats how games work
There's nothing they can do. Short of turning vrc into a Stadia exclusive
Anything that hits your GPU to get rendered can be ripped
there have been multiple security improvement updates, but again, stopping it completely will never be possible, just thanks to how rendering computer graphics works
the only full solution would be cloud
Even if encrypted, it still would have to be decrypted so your GPU can render it. And thus be GPU ripped
even with cloud solutions, you could be really, really pedantic and say that's not a way to completely stop it either
do photogrammetry on the video or something lmao
Luckily people absolutely get banned for ripping. If reports are properly filed with proof and logs.
^ and yes, if you have evidence of someone ripping your content, report it to #moderation-reports, with evidence
Dude ripped my world and was banned same day
Was fun tho. Cuz the admin tools were there so I joined public instance with the ripper there, and banned him from the instance. Good times.
there are many other solutions. like forbid the download of avatar data. only users can decide if there data will be displayed to people they can manually select. for all others you spawn with a unifyed placeholder avatar from vrchat. Problem is that you spawn and you avatar ID is instant public in the lobby. one solution
again, no
you need to download the avatar in some way to render it
there is no way around that
Yea. No
"ripped a drift, mate"
(car screeches into the distance)
yes? you dont get the point. everyone spawns with the same avatar and has to allow people to see his real one. and than the avatar data will be transfered in the lobby but only to the people you allowed it
why should this not be possible?
force robot chat
1: that'd suck
Sounds gay af. Besides. The moment you allow the wrong person. Poof. Ripped.
no im good ty
it would suck ?
2: show the wrong person, gets ripped
yes
Yes
robot chat is boring as hell
Ripping is typically done automatically by illegal modifications
if someone wants to be you that bad, let them be you
then it's useless?
they can not rip what they can not see
So one user with a mod sees the model and bam, it's ripped
"see everyone as robot avatars unless they don't want you to, or see their avatars all the time"
I wonder which one the clientmonkis will choose
Besides, what about public models?
it is usefull for people who want to go to public worlds to chat. and if he meets people he like and trust he want to be displayed to them
who cares, just let them think they are accomplishing something by ripping
one of the big points of making a custom avatar is for..people to see it
How do you know for absolutely certainly someone doesn't have a mod installed that will instantly rip the model? You dont
you can duct tape an image of the character you want to be to your screen and choose a robot avatar ingame, and get the same effect you're describing
if someone else wants to see your avatar, dm them the jpeg
You could meet an awesome dude or gal and allow them to download the model and bam, it's ripped.
my hyperbole aside lol, there's this too
There's absolutely no way to know who is potentially using a mod to do this.
whatever. you just say no without thinking about options to make this work
No, we're thinking. You just don't like what we're saying
Dunning Kruger effect is real
again, things are very actively being done to combat the issue, but stopping ripping will never be fully possible
and solutions that heavily impinge on people's ability to enjoy the game aren't good solutions
there is no influence of my solution at all
If you want to actually help make a positive change, file reports
it is a option everyone can decide on his own. for all others nothing changed
seeing everyone as robots would definitely impact my enjoyment of the game lol
everyone?
Cuz of all the issues with your "solution" we listed...
only the ones who actually take the offer
seeing people's avatars is kind of a big part of the game
that would give trusted users another way to be dickheads
This is just a case of knowing just enough to think you know a lot. But actually know very little......
"mmmm no sorry you dont get to see my avatar"
besides i already see 80% of the lobby as robots. because they are full of screaming kids or unoptimized overloaded avatars
I personally play with safety off permanently
you're taking into account how you play the game, but you're not taking into account how other people play the game
one could also argue your decision adds target crashing into the base game
yeah whatever. no more worlds and avatars than. because you have to see someone using your avatar to report him
Regardless. The point is, ripping can't be stopped outright.
who cares if they steal ur avatar
I personally don't give a shit. All of my content is on that site and it doesn't bother me in the least. I happily make more and more public avatars for anyone to use and won't stop. I personally have long accepted that ANYTHING you put online regardless of where you put it, will or can be taken. If you want to make and share content, this has to be accepted.
they will use it for 5 minutes and then find another one that tickles their fancy
brb turning this comment into an nft
Lmfao
missing times you could add a script killing their GPU
1: that's not how that works
2: even if it was, that's illegal
Lmfao I miss when vrc was less secure while I complain about vrc not being secure
1: it worked i got told, besides i never did it
2: ripping is illegal too or?
fighting fire with fire is a good way to burn everything
Willful destruction of hardware is entirely different than the gray area of ripping an avatar you may or may not even have the entire rights over.
what you're referring to is an exploit on a vv old specific GPU, and is no longer possible
also, i think it's pretty clear that stealing someone's online avatar is a little different than property destruction
Most people don't even own their avatars. They're just a collection of kit bashed items that they may or may not even have the rights to use how they're being used they then claim ownership of.
Hardly anyone is modeling their stuff from scratch
"you stole my avatar thatIdon'tevenfullyownandisinamassivelegalgreyareaitself so I'm going to dissolve your gpu"
"why am I being arrested"
just refering never did as sayed 🙂
Same reason I don't upload ADRIFT as a stand alone game. Most people would say they "own" their world. But I am really just licensed to use a range of assets in a specific way
none of us said you did? 
Oh hey rantis
howdy
So I got one, an aquaintrence of mine dmed me because someone was threatening to rip all of his nsfw avis and reupload them publicly, and was comming to me because they were afraid they would be banned... which is not how that would go down as it would be on the rippers account....
The reason for this? Ripper was called a bottom
adrift standalone game on a 3.5inch floppy when
my 486 can run it
Grabpass on a 486 lmfao
software rendered VRChat :gigamonkas:
Imagine going thru all that trouble because you're so insecure in yourself that being called a bottom sends you over the edge 😭
Quest version tho... Without music the quest version is like 12mb
I could get it down more lol
dm the ripper "you know this is bottom behaviour"
I’m gay
Thinking of upgrading my computer from Laptop to a Desktop. Anyone know of a Desktop that’s VR ready and works with quest?
I don't know very much about the detailed specs in PC, but I heard that "VR ready" and "for VRchat" is two very different goal.
VRChat lieks stronk single-thread powah
Vive pro 2 headset, or the index headset ? (headset only cus i have the other equipment)
"VR ready"... for what headset though? That statement may be for ooold Oculus Rift/OG Vive
hi audacity
Hi there!
nah everybody dead
Damn
Rule 10.
Vrchat supports hyper threading and will use all of your cores.....
if anyone wants to play vrc dm me
I'm sorry. I was wondering if I had to play VRChat for how many hours to open a room on Metaverse.
Does anyone know what should I look for in GPUs if I want to have good performance in vr(or specifically vrc) ?
8gb+ vram , absolute killer for most people in large room
I mean there isn’t much…. Just get one if the newer ones and u should be good
Depends on what your going to be doing, big parties? Huge rooms? Go for the newest you can get, Vibing with friends, chilling in movie rooms? 1080 ti is a safe bet
hi @smoky gulch

I got muted in a discord server for 96 yrs
Wtf
Kids
What did u say/do… I wonder
Hey
How do i use the marker in my character, I press it but idk how to use it, it says marker-R and marker-L
Make a hand gesture? @vocal shard
Do u use vr or desktop?
Quest 2
Might not be on ur model, but certain hand gestures can trigger them if they aren’t out by just the toggle
Press Marker-R or Marker-L buttons and kinda make your fingers point in the air wherever you wanna draw and it should work as a marker
IDK how to explain it well😭
R and L most likely stand for right and left. Toggle on the marker you want to use then make the pointing gesture and write in the air for most pen avas.
I've also seen some where you have to put your left index and thumb as well as your right index finger to write tho
Interesting, thank u @vocal shard also thanks
Yw!! I tried😭
No problem
vrc is more cpu dependent then gpu
the overall best cpu imo because of its high performance with good price is the 5600x
but ofc if u want a powerhouse get the very latest high end ryzen or intel ones
Intel 12th gen series... you'll have to deal with W11's VR issues... but it has top-level single-thread performance which should mean reduced vrc lag aside from W11's issues.
Vrc supports hyper threading and will use all your cores...
How well is it spread out through the cores? Does it not use up most of a single (or 2) cores?
No. It uses all cores
This whole single threaded bs was from Dynamic Bones being single threaded, which lead to higher usage on the main core. But dynamic Bones is gone. Vrc itself, as well as unity, supports hyper threading.
Oh, that's what I'd be referring to... Good riddance you pesky, picky thread-eaters!
All that's left is those that disable auto-convert and still use/see those avatars. idk about worlds though.
World's are no different. But yes. If you choose to manually still see Dynamic Bones then you deserve the cost of doing so lmao. Avatar Dynamics is vastly more performant
Dynamic Bones was kinda a curse
hey can anyone help me my game tells me that it cant connect to vrchat and to check my internet and im using an ethernet
Are you using a vpn
no it just showed
I have a really strange bug in vrchat. My quick menu refuse to open on my right B button. When i press it, it only moves the finger slightly from one side to the other. Kinda like when you gently move the thumb from the buttons to the the trackpad on the controllers.
Send help
does it work in other games?
Yea 😦
remove mods
yo
frwog
no
:(
Make sure your bindings are correctly configured in SteamVR
k and?
Ur mom
no u
Damn
Hey try make friends new to vrchat
?
what frunk mods and accessories for the index should i absolutely get?
Don't cross-post, please.
ok
Artemus hath spoken.

Does anyone wanna be friends?
why tf do people randomly message on discord like who are u and y u dming me very sus v creepy
Err, I guess turn off your direct messages
Anyone wanna play
Yess I need more friends
would anyone be able to recommend a good quest compatible karaoke world that also has a discord where u can add songs to their list?
i am going to randomly dm you 
you wont know when it is going to happen but it will happen
I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will randomly DM you
yeah
Look make friends new to vrchat
Don't add people without talking to them it's weird. Talk to people first and then if you click then go for it. Don't take my decline personally but I don't accept the random req and most don't either
Adding people without even a word is indeed a "who the hell are you" moment
I get a lot of random reqs as well as random people DMing me and telling me to play with them on vrc without so much as a 30 second conversation 😭
RAndom DM's get pictures of moldy cheese from me
AHHHH thats the one thanks!
No prob!
it totally slipped my mind right when i was looking for it
I'm in it all the time so I knew 😂
i am going to randomly dm you
you don't know when it will happen, but it will

I am going to randomly
you
you don't know when it will happen, but it will

Fumo
Gotcha thanks
@pliant niche ratio 😍
yo
Alright bet whats ur vrc user??
CallMeCat Thank you
Soon as i get on ill add you
Ok
Someone hacked my account and was easily able to change my username to the n word and change my email address so I couldn't fix it in time.
Watch out in there fellas 👍 people are scum
Use 2FA. Do not reuse passwords.
And make sure you don't install things you shouldn't install. Cus those things are not uncommonly a source of that. 
True, I thought I had 2fa on but alas, I was mistaken
Couldn't this dude have done this on a weekday not fckin Friday!
friday is a weekday tbf
but yeah sorry that happened. have you tried contacting support?
Yep I contacted them and sent in a ticket. 👍
nows the part where you wait
Make sure your email account didn't use the same password too
While you may or may not have, tis an example of 101 reasons to not use mods xD

Im new to vr Chat and I get grey screens on the Index. Anybody know why?
It’s not constant but unplayable
Hello
Anyone has the issue that you can't turn around using the right hand joystick?
I'll fight u bitch. Those are my R's
i see u are ready to fight but hear out my modest proposal for peace,
ur mother
I lost before the battle even began. Such a defeat, my family name is forever tarnished
Nah never fucked with mods I'm too dumb to figure that shit out
discord wordfilter's a bit weird
lol dude. I'm a 29yr old stoner, i do not know how to do mods .
Also, the dude changed my vrcname to the n word, changed my bio to be the n word, and changed my status to "munchin is the best vrchat client" which idk what thateven is.
Here comes the weird part - I filled out a ticket 5hrs ago and have not heard back from VRC. I got home from work and tried logging on in browser with no luck. Hacker changed my username and password so makes sense. I open the game on my computer and it auto logged me in! So I changed my bio all back without the n word and nazi shit in it, but now im like. ...uh i can log in, but i cant log in using my internet browser to change my username and to change my password?? VRC is weak it seems when it comes to this type of shit.
Assuming you filed a moderation ticket - it could take a day or two to get back to you, depending how backlogged they are.
Doesnt usually take that long but, volume depending.
Yeah I'm planning on it. Sucks, this loser really fucked up my weekend 👍
sometimes it takes up to a week also weekends don't count
Moderation isnt generally that slow. but if he sent it to the support queue specifically, that can be longer. They get a LOT more tickets, overall.
Link me wherever the fastest route is 👍👍

im stuck in vrchat beta.
switch back to Live, uninstall the game, and reinstall
If that doesn't work, wait a couple hours before reinstalling o:
VRChat on the weekends hit different
How so?
does anyone know where to find a mha rp server
how exactly are you planning to do this
unless your target are 8 year olds in that case it could work
best time to play honestly
Chat a bit dead huh
lol
lol
Hello
yo whats up my brother in laws
I love you
Is anyone else stuck in beta
I have reset it before it let’s me play beta but I can’t switch back no matter what
Hi everyone! 👋😊
Here to meet many new wonderful people yum I primarily stick to playing in mmd worlds, hope everyone is having a fantastic day and weekend partying_face
Ok then
hi
because if you do, you have a chance for your name to be changed to bad things
That was literally a post from over 24 hours ago.....
My name can't be changed to bad things as it already is. Add 3 letters to the name my mother bestowed upon me and my name is now Viagra.
I am not smort okidokie
.3.
Ur mom
Changing my name to Viagra
oh no
hi
Any imperial legions I can join
windows 11 is so trash, jesus christ
I was wondering why I was getting this weird choppiness with the HMD even though my FPS were really good, turns out you have to have Steam visible so Windows 11 doesn't throttle it, wohoo
I bet Microsoft is never going to fix this because they don't care about VR
nah it's different
it's actually caused by the new Windows 11 "feature" that, for instance, makes web browser tabs in the background not use resources
it's okay in some cases, but in this case it focuses on the game, while taking away all the resources from Steam itself
so everyone's running around buttery smooth, but my headset, when I move my head... 😂
but I should turn that off anyway
it'll only likely make it worse
looks like it essentially does the same thing
I'm pretty sure I had it off on my Windows 10, but I did it so long ago that I forgot to do it again rofl
hmmm, based on the description of game mode, it's possible it's the main culprit actually, even though Windows 11 has another feature that does the same, thanks for reminding me to turn it off
I do quite dislike windows 11 already though
anyone want to play vr chat with me ??? ( i would prefer to play among us or murder 4 but u can choose )
i will
I would say yes but someone just crashed my oculus soooo
If it was the bot then you might have written something "spammy"
how do i know if its the bot>
cuz it keeps deleting my messeges
The bot shows a message for a brief time when it does so. Immediately after your message
You would've had your answer if you didn't have DM's off. The partial reason is because of how you're asking it.
for one thing... didnt know i had dms off. for a second thing, why not just say that in the first place as a reply? what format is fair then? cuz another dude sent a similar msg at 10:28 pm in general 1 and it still stands?
so thats why im confused

also not trying to talk back, sorry if it seems that way. i am asking legit questions
Checking in
✅
is there any viable way to check how quest/android looks on pc yet? (probably not) Have to ask atleast every so often
Anime girls don exist
anime boys don exist
Bro

who’s down for a schoo rp in vrchat?
😧
Does anyone know what would make using steamvr super laggy? She just got a brand new oculus and brand new controllers and everytime she uses steamvr it’s really laggy
