gotcha, okay
thank you for being a well of knowledge right now haha
random owl
No worries
Since you are just starting out you can try my unity editor extension it helps avoid a bunch of mistakes you can make esp when being new to world building
https://github.com/SudoOne/VRWorldToolkit/releases
fallen wave
yeah, and i guess consulting google is gonna help a lot, esp. seeing as your debugger is telling me to bake my lights and i dont see how to ^^;;
random owl
Some of the stuff is just telling you good practice for worlds to optimize better and stuff like that
fallen wave
oh no, i get that, im just saying im a mega noob haha
random owl
But yes baking is a good thing to make your world perform better
Xiexe has a lighting tutorial you should find on google
random owl
It's an unofficial forum
random owl
But I'm gonna be out for now to get some sleep, if my extension gives you any trouble bug me in my dm's and I'll fix it ๐
fallen wave
ah, ok! thank you, and good night!
bold ibex
Are there any good tutorials on lightmapping or preparing a mesh for lightmaps in blender/unity so when I bake it it looks good and not weird
near escarp
Not many for either
Either make your own lightmaps in blender, or generate them in Unity

i need a hand! i bought a world off of somebody and i uploaded the world just fine to make sure that it worked, but now ive gone back and added pictures (all just on planes, with standard shader) and it wont upload/update, it takes like 2 hours (partly because of bad internet) just for it to say failed to upload when it looks like its 75% done uploading, the person i purchased it from doesnt know what the issue could be so im wondering if anyone here can help me! im going to go to sleep right away but @ me if you want to see any of it to help me out, thanks in advance!!
i know the basics about world making but i have no clue what it could be when all i did was add planes and pictures

What causes player's local camera(selfie) to have a white layer over it when post processing is on.
It was fine til I tweaked my PPV2 settings and now whenever I pull my camera out, it has a white overlay on it
Pictures taken are fine when saved to the PC but I just think it'll bothered ppl

For some reason, I can't get my VRchat control panel window to show up when I load my project in unity. Does anyone know a work around?

VRCSDK2 or 3?
Normally best case scenario is to close unity. Open file explorer and delete VRCSDK folder and the plugins folder. Re-launch Unity then reimport latest SDK choice
zenith field
it's vrcsdk2
rustic mantle
Also refer to your console tab for any errors
Import errors can prevent other assets from importing correctly
any broken scripts get rid of them. Assuming you migrated from 2017?
zenith field
actually I think it's just the regular vrcsdk and no I've been using 2018.4.2
rustic mantle
Oh okay. So yeah just do that, delete the sdk folder and plugins
zenith field
okay I will try that now...I'm scared cause it's for a school project I'm presenting later today
let's see..
so I delete it and then reimport the package when I open the project again?
ok...just wanna be sure

It worked thank you (:

hey what sdk do i need to create worlds VRCSDK3?

Both SDK2 and 3 can create worlds
SDK2 is for the old triggers and classic way of creating your worlds
SDK3 is for UDON
SDK3 however cannot be used to upload avatars

you have to wait one week for a new world
but if you still have the world ID, you can update the world though

So I can upload a whole new world just with that world ID
like my unity project file doesnt exist anymore, could i make a world and overwrite the current one?

yes you can

oooohh!!! hehe, I already removed the pause and everything is fine, but why does it automatically pause?
bold ibex
yeah i have two projects recently that automatically go into pause mode every time i hit play, odd
silent spire
I dont know why this happend ๐
near escarp
you have pause on error enabled in your console @silent spire
lethal cliff
No output log for today
near escarp
if the vrchat client launched then you should have an outputlog 
lethal cliff
Will try to enter a world first then try the build
silent spire
For example, the chair error and the solution would only be to remove pause, right? @near escarp

hey ruuubick, do you know any other way for compressing other than crunch
near escarp
reducing scale of the image
simple arrow
correct?
runic wyvern
Make it a JPG
or
Resize it either though photoshop/paint/gimp or just use "Max Size" in Unity that should work too
simple arrow
would be too many textures to resize in photoshop
but i went from 181 to 102mb
lets try changing the max size and see how low we can get it
runic wyvern
32px oh hell yeah
simple arrow
xD
near escarp
Depending on the type of image, it can be reduced by a lot
simple arrow
most are tif
runic wyvern
oh lord
simple arrow
others png and a few targa
near escarp
yeah make them png or tga at best, jpg if you don't need transparency
random owl
Image format really doesn't matter much when unity converts everything anyways, anything lossless is fine
I would not convert my assets to lossy formats like jpg
runic wyvern
Honestly i have the same idea about not converting to jpg but when you really think about it, a lot of people are not staring at every little detail and shadow of your avatar to be like "oh jpg why"
But it's just something personal that kicks in when you are working with it in unity up-close
random owl
It's not gonna be jpg ingame though that's what I mean
supple drift
yeah, if you import a super compressed jpg and a lightly compressed jpg - it may different on your HDD - but it will be the same size in Unity while still inheriting the lossy grossness so you might as well use lossless
It makes your project folder bigger possibly, but it won't affect anything else
runic wyvern
oh huh okay, i never looked into it that much but good to know. Thanks for the info i generally never used jpg's often anyway
simple arrow
only thing im worried about is world size, size on my pc isn't much of a problem
runic wyvern
I honestly kind of subconsciously dodge most of the worlds that are over 180+ mb's unless they look really really good on the preview or it's some big event
simple arrow
^ thats why
its not just you, its most people that do that
some people have slow connections so loading worlds takes longer, then they give up and never give your world a try
runic wyvern
i don't mind the space but it's more of how long you have to wait for it to download and then initialize and even in the end it most likely will be very low fps and unoptimized
simple arrow
so when i make my worlds, i always try my best to keep it under 100mb
hell i try to shoot for 50mb
runic wyvern
yeah, my mark is like 80mb or so, as soon as it goes over it i'm panicking in trying to compress as much as i can without making it look bad
simple arrow
most of my worlds are night worlds, so i can get away with some textures not looking great
raven cloak
can you use mirrors like on those tank periscopes when 2 mirrors reflect on eachother to show what's going on outside?
supple drift
A trick that might help when it comes to cutting size without quality in our case (if you have the perf budget) is to actually use detail maps. You can drop your max size lower than you'd expect, and use tiled detail nrmals + dirt/noise detail albedos to augment the high frequency detail
I got away with using a stupid low texel density on this desk + cabinet bcs I knew I could just use detail maps to match the rest of the scene (altho its a little extreme in this case)
green lagoon
yeah detailed maps are very helpful

I though the VRC UI Shape was supposed to add a box collider that fit the Canvas. It's not doing it, and me adding one no matter how thin results in the little blue selector trail acting as if it's still a box shaped collider.

Yeah, you probably want to ask that in UDON on how to sync pickups or something because on VRCSDK2 there used to be VRC_Object sync component but it's not in VRCSDK3 so i assume you must make your own way to sync objects for now

chrome vector
I can't seem to upload my world; it crashes every time, but it was fine yesterday? Does anyone know if this might just be due to the whole Unity Curl thing?
runic wyvern
I would really like to test if crashing happens due to that but i'm not getting a curl issue in the first place at all
chrome vector
I went to make updates, and now it's just crashing, so. I don't know if it's me, or what.
runic wyvern
a lot of people seem to experience similar issues today, so i guess it might be that, but i don't know any better
chrome vector
If other people are having that issue, then maybe it's just Unity's servers.
hazy temple
you could test with an empty scene to see if it upload
chrome vector
Yea, I guess that's true
It gets a tiny bit through and then it crashes.
when uploading
I'll try a new scene; might as well.
runic wyvern
i would say new project at this point then
chrome vector
yes, gonna see if that works
Well, I uploaded a test world but I didnt get thr curl error
I'm getting errors I've never seen in my life before when I try to upload
hazy temple
you have a screenshot of the errors ?
runic wyvern
as long as you can playmode and access building content, not a big deal
chrome vector
There was something about a Sound function the next time I tried
Yea, it works fine in testing. I just crashed when uploading now.
runic wyvern
oh well, okay
hazy temple
what are the others errors in the console ?
chrome vector
The curl one.
runic wyvern
yeah, i can't tell what the issue is, i would have to stumble upon this somehow and try to get to find out what makes it that way
chrome vector
I'll try to get more screenshots tomorrow. I uploaded the world fine yesterday without an issue.
But its freezing at the error above now
hazy temple
do you have "Error Pause" activated in the console window ?
chrome vector
I have no idea actually. I'll check!
Apparently, yes, it got reselected jgfhgdghvxvv
Omg
Ty!!!! Its uploading now
I had that turned off. Maybe I misclicked it back on.
runic wyvern
okay, that's useful to keep in mind. though why would it go back on itself?
chrome vector
I have no idea. I turned it off, which is why I never thought that was the issue.
Beats me. Well, it uploaded, so I guess it's all good, fft. Thank you!
green sparrow
Do I need to be worried about this? It's not very descriptive.
hazy temple
If you can test or upload then it's good
runic wyvern
don't think you need to be bothered about it, if you can use playmode it's not a big deal
hazy temple
you can ignore

Is it still possible with the 2018 SDK 3 to have drivable vehicles? I thought I heard something about the standard assets not being whitelisted with SDK 3 and I assume those are what are used to make vehicles work.

I want to make a trigger to enable or disable Bloom, Blur and Ambient oclussion separately, but I don't know how to select each one. How should I do it?
i think you have to create different post-processing objects with different profiles that have each one enabled individually and then make an animation to change their weights, that's how i did it at least, it may be much simpler
or no animation to change weights necessary actually, i just was thinking of how i'd animate post processing effects in general, but if you just want to swtich them on and off, then setting their weight and enabling/disabling them should be good
Thank you!

so i have it loaded in, did the layer 22 step and everything
but the 2 issues i have is that 1. the ball just always starts off on the floor
2. none of the triggers seem to work

none of them? or just the respawn?
simple nimbus
none
ball in cup doesn't trigger anything
throwing the ball and hitting the floor doesn't do anything
gloomy fog
never seen anyone with an issue this far before
simple nimbus
but the ball does bounce
gloomy fog
I would delete the prefab and start over. usually peoples biggest issue is the respawn
anyways, make sure the stool has a collider on it
simple nimbus
i saw it had a mesh collider already i think
gloomy fog
on the plate, if it's missing a mesh collider, add it. then, on the trigger on the ball, make sure the respawn point is set in the ball respawn trigger
it might say like "target" in the teleport trigger
simple nimbus
re-importing now
no luck :/
it seems like vrc just isn't picking up any triggers
i have the ground's layer set to environment

it is
i just did it
receiver is ball and then targetLocation is BallRespawnPoint

i think my triggers in my scene are messed up or something
cause i noticed the ball in the cup doesn't make it go away
i think if the triggers were working what would happen is the ball would hit the ground in the beginning but the trigger would make it go back to respawn and then into plate? idk
know of a simple way i can just test a trigger?
ok just tried to drop the ball onto plate and it goes right through
loaded it up into a new project and everything is working fine
not sure why my project is so messed up

But today while I was playing, I found out that my world is using the cubemap texture I was using in the test build.....

Does anyone know what's going on here? When I paint flowers on my terrain, they appear only in rows instead of wherever I paint:
I noticed I was getting an error about a limit on the number of meshes per patch being exceeded and adjusting the detail resolution per patch and detail resolution seems to have resolved the issue. I guess Unity was rendering flowers across each patch until it ran out of vertices, hence the weird rows?
I have another weird issue though where I can paint height onto this example terrain, but I cannot seem to paint any additional details or alter the ones already there:

Anyone Know why when I click in generating coliders for the world mesh the rain coliding into it to make the splashes does not colide for every single part of the world q-q?
solid helm
Rain particle colliders? Particle collision is very very expensive so Unity does it at low precision. You should set up collider planes by hand instead in the particle system settings
minor wolf
yeah by hand they worked
its jsut having patience to add for every single mesh the colider

Does anyone know of a good tutorial that provides a visualization of patch resolution and such for terrains? I'm trying to add foliage, and the terms are confusing. You've got your terrain width and length, which I have set to 1024, and then you've got "detail resolution" and "detail resolution per patch". For "detail resolution" it says "the number of cells available for placing details on the terrain tile. This value is squared". And for "detail resolution per patch" it says "the number of cells in a single patch" .
But what constitutes a "terrain tile"? The whole terrain? I'm used to terrains being subdivided into tiles, and I see "tiles" when I go into wireframe mode, but I don't have a clue if those are what "detail resolution" is referring to when it says "the number of cells available for placing details on the terrain tile" or if it is referring to the whole terrain.

i need a bit of a hand? i cant log into the sdk with my boyfriends account. i made a world for him, tested and everything from my account and it worked just fine, i signed out and i cant log in with his and yes its the right username and password, not only did he watch me do it, i also copied and pasted when he sent it to me and he even used teamviewer and logged in on his own. i can log in with mine just fine but no matter what i cant log in with his. i already tried deleted the sdk and reimporting it, exporting the project file without the sdk and making a whole new unity project then reimporting the sdk, ive tried just restarting unity and ive tried restarting my computer but nothing seems to be helping. anyone got any ideas? i dont really want to send him the files because 1. thats alot of effort and 2. some of the stuff in it is a bit of a surprise and i want to wait for him to see it in game
if this isnt he right channel for this to be in ^^^^ let me know, thanks in advance!
foggy brook
Is it possible to enable/disable "synchronize physics" of pickups at will ? If so, what really does it do ?
hazy temple
you can use an animation to do it
foggy brook
Yeah but what does it do
Like, if you enable synchronize while someone has moved it, does it move it back
if you disable it, does it gets back to your local position or last recorded position of the person holding it
foggy brook
Is it me or pickups are glitched
like when you take them in hand and move they shake uncontrollably
hazy temple
look like they are colliding with something
hazy temple
what if you do it in an empty scene
slow orbit
Where are the object origins? I think if they're too far away from the pickup mesh it can cause that.
foggy brook
Oh, how do I change an object origin ?
slow orbit
Did you make the objects in blender?
bleak moat
In your modelling package
foggy brook
Yeah
bleak moat
Check if the orange dot that signals the pivot is at the right place
slow orbit
Select object, object menu, transform > origin to geometry
foggy brook
Oh thanks, do I need to replace all elements including this model ?
Or there's a quick model replace
slow orbit
you need to do that to all the pickups, you can select them all and it'll do it to all of them individually

Any tips to having a constant music stream similar to club vgl or the void?

use the VideoSync prefab in SDK2 and put in a bunch of youtube links
or you can use the stream prefab if there's a 24/7 stream you want to use
Has anyone ever had this issue where screenspace canvases render over all geometry (editor only)?

bold ibex
I have a question?

cobalt sluice
disable it using the checkbox on the top left in the inspector
then you can have a button that you add a VRC_Trigger script to and add the event Interact>SetGameObjectActive
put your mirror in as the gameobject to set active and set the mode to "toggle"

Is there any reason why the VRCVideoSync might sometimes play the youtube videos? I'd say it plays in my map around 30-40% of the time
random sage
Possibly issues specific to certain videos. Try the same video multiple times, does it always have the same result? @cobalt sluice
idk how exactly vrc gets youtube videos but if the same videos always fail it might be age restriction, geo blocking, embeds disabled, etc
amber silo
Okay so UI triggers for toggle objects, do I need a different one than button?
cobalt sluice
@random sage it'll always play the video if I input the URL manually. It's just like a 30% chance it'll play if it's in the playlist and I load into the world
Although it seems like it typically works in local testing and fails in public worlds
I might add a play button and see if that will force it to work
I do have the mesh renderer for the video disabled so I hope that's not affecting things

before upload map use this local test option - if send to home map / not build then there is problem - check console for errors with build - post here if can that console error
austere siren
anyone knownif it's allowed to have > 300mb maps if it's for a private event?
restive minnow
What are a good Post Processing config for underwater?
@austere siren Well... by those MMD maps weighting over 400mb... maybe yes?
austere siren
Hope so, we wanna import lego models, but since they have tons of bricks in them which are meshes, the file sizes get huge quickly
austere siren
no, just static
restive minnow
Just set it to static and maaaaybe they won't weight as much XD
Because it might recognize a brick as just another instance
austere siren
it might, my worry is with people have lower spec pc's which will turn into mush loading those assets
restive minnow
Nah, people PC's turned into mush with my dome (removed)
It was just a sphere ;w;
austere siren
I'm just a beginner (literally started 3 days ago) and trying to make those meshes into just a mesh with only the faces outwards visible/rendered is not working out too well xD
bleak moat
can't you bake the blocks or something? you surely don't need every block to be fully detailed...?
restive minnow
I still need a good Post Processing for underwater ;w;
austere siren
we will get the models from other people, I'd love to remove all unneeded blocks but it might take ages to do so
restive minnow
(and it's just some silly underwater, not realistic)
austere siren
@restive minnow wish i could help, but i barely am able to make a map atm
is an example of a small model
restive minnow
You would need to export that model to blender and make it remove intersecting meshes
That might "clean" the model a bit
austere siren
i tried merging them as well, but didnt really do anything xD
we are thinking about just making multiple worlds, the issue is that we probable can't link em together if they aren't published
bleak moat
yeah that's going to be an expensive model to render :/
bold ibex
When i edit my world and publish it wont update does anyone know a fix?
bleak moat
If you have the time you can try making a simpler model and bake the normals into it
restive minnow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf16s5MPBLg I think that's is what you're searching for @austere siren
austere siren
thanks i'll check that ๐
bleak moat
but that'll take time esp. if you have to do it for a lot of models
restive minnow
(on removing intersecting stuff)
austere siren
i imported this in unity as well (as an extreme), ran fine on my pc
but the model itself alone is 300mb
restive minnow
That link I sent you may be on an "older" Blender but the tutorial works the same. It will create a "shell" of that model with way less meshes intersecting
It will help with optimization
austere siren
gonna try on the smaller model first ๐
short gulch
Before compressing the baked lighting one of my worlds was ~840 mb, I think you're fine. It wont stop you from uploading it at least.
austere siren
yea baking will take ages i think
bleak moat
If you have the time & patience to bake normalmaps you can get pretty good results visually but you'll loose details from up close. Here's an example where the left model is just a mesh with 1080 faces, and the right one has a baked normal map and is only made of 18 faces
you obviously loose some geometry detail but the overall aspect stays roughly the same
austere siren
i think for the smaller models it's ok, but for life size models it will not be possible
hmm the tutorial doesnt work in blender 2.8 because they removed the thing he used =/
restive minnow
Oh D:
... I can't make Silent's Water Shader look decent...
I can't "see" the water fog somehow
Unless the camera is really "close"
bleak moat
Have you tweaked the Material settings?
restive minnow
Tried everything
short gulch
Is lighting enabled?
restive minnow
Well... yes
short gulch
I know that sounds weird but thats what my water looks like until I enable the lighting
restive minnow
I mean, what kind of lightting?
short gulch
The little picture of the sun on the top left of the viewport
restive minnow
Oh, yes it is.
slow orbit
I imagine the shader needs the depth buffer for the distance fade so you need a light, possibly with shadows enabled.
Slap a directional light in there and see what happens
restive minnow
Oh, the problem was the lighting itself (needed directional)
short gulch
Ah ok then. And I just remembered I'm using a different water shader :0
restive minnow
Now how to make it not affect the rest of my scene is another problem lel
slow orbit
Layers & culling masks
slow orbit
Change the light's culling mask from Everything to a layer, now it only will affect objects on that layer.
restive minnow
Like to make that directional lightning just affect the water and have a point light to everything else?
Now it looks decent, thanks ^^

Hello, im getting these error lines which seem to be preventing me from entering the world to test it. Did I do something wrong?
cobalt sluice
those are warnings so they shouldn't be preventing you from testing
wicked wren
For some reason, it bounces me off the world as I load it and puts it back into my home
Oh I think i found the error
no idea how to fix this still hmm
bold ibex
whatever script isn't compiling you either fix or delete it
wicked wren
i have no idea where to even find these scripts hnng
i was just putting together random pieces to make a basic world (beginner) and this popped up X_X
I guess ill deletre objects one at a time to figure it out
random owl
Press clear on the console once and you'll see the scripts causing the problems
wicked wren
Nothing pops up after I press clear, do i have to try testing it again?
Just a cleared console o-o;

You can try restarting your unity

hmm ok

Did you disable error pause?

is error pause these

Error pause is in the console, I can't see what you've set it to because your screenshots are just about cropping it out

wicked wren
console*
wicked wren
oh
are those allsky assets causing it
still having testing issues where it sends me back home instead
random owl
Yeah delete that script
bold ibex
there are issues with the current SDK script that can cause build and test to send you to your home world despite how you made the world. It auto-fixes if you build and publish instead. Trust me, i've had the issue myself, and i have literally no errors in my console at all that would interfere with that @wicked wren
random owl
I'm using the current sdk and build and test is working fine
random owl
No worries
wicked wren
simple meadow
clearing the cache didn't fix it, i have this error tho
bold ibex
same here 1, but i get the issue from time to time. it's nothing to do with the SDK at all, just happends when the project decides to corrupt some of the files in the project you're using, and i dont like restarting a new project just to have it corrupted again
simple meadow
The settings show up when I replaced the SDK with an older one, strange
is it ok to use older SDK?

Did you check the rest of the errors with the latest sdk?
Your console will have more of them

Hello, not sure if this is the right place, but we're looking for someone willing to help us out with creating a world for an event. The issue is that we are all beginners/noobs with unity and VRchat's systems.
The event is a virtual event of an actual event that was supposed to happen this year, but due to the situation had to be cancelled.
The event is the biggest fan-made Lego event in Asia, but it's almost all voluntary: https://japanbrickfest.klug-jp.com/
We are trying to make a decent world where we can display Lego models people will send in. Basically every builder gets their own little spot (like in a museum).
It's probable a bit too much to ask, but I'm not sure where else I can look. Any help would be much appreciated.

Does anyone know how you can replace the right click (or index click on vr controller) from 'hold/throw' to make a sound? I kind of got to the point of making the mesh a trigger and putting a vrc trigger with a audio trigger but don't know how to replace the interact buttons

anyone have any experience using lighting probes? I'm trying to do it using 3 point lights and once i bake everything just goes black
woven condor
if lamps not bake - probes wont help you
simple nimbus
lamps are bake
simple nimbus
so i should do a bunch of small ones instead of one big one?
woven condor
make sure not any ball inside geometry
you can use asset "simple light probe" from asset store
it's need fix after install for 2018 unity - simple rly
simple nimbus
that's what i'm using right now
so make sure the light probe are not like going through the floor or anything?
woven condor
create light probe volume
simple nimbus
is that what you mean by "make sure not any ball inside geometry'
woven condor
then X Y values for probes
if ball inside wall or asset - make for problems
if map wont build after - move script folder into editor folder within slp asset folder
simple nimbus
simple nimbus
doesn't work :/
no i put the boundary above the floor
and there's no walls or ceiling
woven condor
what doesent work
simple nimbus
lights just turn off once i bake
woven condor
so scene is dark
simple nimbus
yes
woven condor
play mode you see lights ok
simple nimbus
no still dark
woven condor
then you have not lights setup correct
simple nimbus
simple nimbus
when you say bake you just mean "Generate Lighting" in Lighting window right?
woven condor
can you zip scene - dm me
simple nimbus
sure
random owl
If the lights are not baking onto anything you most likely don't have anything in the scene set to static
woven condor
spot on 1
simple nimbus
Lightmap Static?
random owl
Yeah
woven condor
assets - floor / walls
simple nimbus
ok that might be it
i just updated floor and baking and it's actually taking a long time now
hopefully thats it
that was it!
thanks so much!!

is there a method to stream Audio/Music into your world. I don't want to have to put the audio file in my world, because it will make my world download size to big.
@bold ibex
I'm wondering the same thing!
gaunt minnow
I've updated my world to Unity 2018.4.20f1, but when trying to publish the new version it doesn't let me update, instead it shows me the options to publish it as a new world. I made sure it is properly using the Blueprint ID.
Any tips?
i've updated to latest SDK2

Local Testing force non-vr doesn't seem to be working on my end
opens vr either way
simple nimbus
@woven condor looks like when i build i'm getting an error with the lighting :/
Property or indexer 'LightProbeGroup.probePositions' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only
woven condor
yes - i mention about error - in light probe asset folder - move scripts folder into editor folder - then project will build
@simple nimbus
Before
After
simple nimbus
i see
thank you!
for anyone else who sees this it was also possible to edit the script with this answer https://github.com/AlexanderVorobyov/simple-light-probe-placer/issues/1
although @woven condor answer is the better way
bold ibex
anyone know why these objects aren't using the reflection probe in this room?
oh weird, seems like it's the material
or not
same mat on the ball as the 'glass'
i'm confused
random owl
Have you checked the mesh renderer settings?
bold ibex
aah, i see
i overrode it when trying to optimise
thanks, it's been a long while
since i last worked on this map
might you know how to remove the anchor override for all meshes in the scene?
random owl
You can always select multiple and remove it from all selected
"t:meshrenderer" search for that in the hierarchy it should find all gameobjects with a mesh renderer on them

^ i didnt know that wow thats gonna be very helpful thanks
Btw, sorry to intrude but reposting because feels more relevant to this channel:
Hi, we are hosting a party on VRChat tomorrow (we're all graduating). It'll be big with about 60 people joining. One of us spent their entire week building a world this week, but looks like they don't have necessary trust rank to upload. If anybody is willing to upload it, I can link them the Git repo. Would appreciate a lot!

Does anyone know if there's any working video players yet? Or are they still broken?
jolly cape
Sdk2 or Sdk3?
primal echo
sdk3
jolly cape
Video players are entirely disabled on sdk3 atm
primal echo
This is getting kind of ridiculous lmao it's been 2 months
jolly cape
I think theyll be back soon
primal echo
I hope so
jolly cape
Better release something working late than something broken that doesnt work
bold ibex
@random owl thanks man ๐
mental verge
is there any sites people know where i can find good ambient sounds?

hey a little while ago someone was talking about video players
I know video player prefabs exist... what is currently the most stable video player prefab? iwaSyncPlayer? Hangout Player? Jetdog? Zephin?
I just dont know how or where to download them to bring them into Unity. I'd really like the iwaSyncPlayer 2.4 or higher, if anyone has a link to it
stone hollow
They are all the same thing just different UI
tidal radish
Is there a basic one you'd recommend? All I need to do is bring youtube and Twitch streams in
I dont need crazy stuff just a good bright screen
then after that if there was a way to chop up the screen so I can VJ on splices or chunks of the screen that'd be amazing
bold ibex
how does one change the respawn point after players trigger an event?
For example, I have a teleport trigger on an object and i want that same trigger to also change the respawn point, so if you respawn, you don't go to where the respawn point was originally. Instead, you respawn at a new point
wraith ruin
When i try to build and test my world, it just opens up a old build. All i did was put lightprobes in the scene using simple lightprobe placer and changed the skybox, i have tried reverting to the previous skybox, restarting unity, no luck
near escarp
Check your console after upload, most likely the probe asset is causing errors and your word is not updating even if it says upload complete
@wraith ruin
wraith ruin
It doesnt even start to build it, just open the cmd and opens vrchat
Ohh yes there was some errors on light probes
Don't know how to fix it tho
random owl
You can move the scripts folder inside the editor folder in the same location
Should work after that
wraith ruin
I don't know what you mean, but I just deleted that asset and placed the light probes manually and it worked. Placing manually wasn't even that hard. I've always thought that it's way more complicated
Ohh now I understand what you meant. I have to keep that in mind! :)
keen gazelle
Hey guys has anyone played the escape room created by Smoken?
wraith ruin
Why collider looks like this when using convex mesh collider? It worked fine in 2017 unity. And what to use now as object sync? Its not in there anymore
edgy nexus
I'm curious to know but is this a place to ask if people are able to make a world on request? If not, I'm sorry to bother. Just want to ask. ๐
bold ibex
Can you have a canvas as childobject of a pickupable object? When I pick it up the canvas get mirrored for some reason
ok nvm it was the grab point
bold ibex
@wraith ruin ensure the referenced mesh in the mesh collider component is the same mesh as the can. Also; VRC_Object Sync still exists in VRCSDK2. If you're working on an older world before Udon was released in VRCSDK3, then use VRCSDK2 to get Object Sync back, otherwise VRCSDK3 would be using udon instead of Object sync I believe
wraith ruin
Its is. And im using sdk3, but i figured it out. But that mesh collider problem still persists
bleak moat
did you try reimporting materials/textures?
glass scroll
didnt have any
it was just resized cubes
that are now pink
wait
i gave it a random material and it looks normal
bleak moat
yeah it still uses materials
glass scroll
tnx :)
gaunt minnow
after updating to unity 2018 and also updating latest SDK2 i can not update my existing world, it always wants to upload as a new one. What am i doing wrong?
gaunt minnow
Aha... What i was doing wrong: the player was paused during the builder menu thing
unkempt musk
Anyone know why my textures aren't loading in for these blue crystals?
They load fine in Unity
Could it be bad lightmaps? I found they had multiple UVs on them (and deleted the old ones) Not sure if maybe something baked badly
bold ibex
My music in my world is not 2d some reason
torn spoke
How can I make a cube that kill you when you click on it
bold ibex
forgot to turn off spatialization inside of the vrc_spatialaudiosource pepega

Incase anyone runs into my issue - i rebaked the lights and it's fixed.
austere siren
is there currently no way to play videos with SDK3? Not sure if it got updated or not
random owl
Currently no
austere siren
Darn ๐ฆ Really liked the options in SDK3, but need a video player somehow, guess have to use linked worlds instead
austere siren

Thanks, super happy with how it turned out
Next project is a map based on the temple of tolerance in wapakoneta ohio, beautiful place
primal echo
Looks awesome ๐ did you make those rooms yourself?
austere siren
hmm was hoping i could directly play an MP4 file, but it only plays the first frame
primal echo
You can play an mp4 file @austere siren
jolly cape
Not with sdk3 atm
afaik youd have to convert the video to a gif and sync it up with an audio file
austere siren
@primal echo not possible atm ๐ฆ i tried
glass scroll
how do i make an object solid so that u cant walk through
(.fbx objects exported from blender)
glass scroll
tnx um how do i add a collider
jolly cape
the add component button
and then search for collider
and use the one you need
unless it comes with one
jolly cape
Gotta do it the way I said
austere siren
if it's a complex shape use mesh collider if the model didn't provide any
glass scroll
its tetris pieces that i made
jolly cape
Then box colliders
