yo, im trying to upload a world so that i can test it in verchat, but teh vrcsdk3 keep bugging out whenever i go to hit the upload button, can someone help me?
short forum
Whats going on @woeful crest
woeful crest
I'm trying to upload a world and teh vrcsdk3 keeps bugging out
short forum
Wdym bugging out?
woeful crest
i think im forgetting something in teh game, but i have no clue what teh console is saying
so like, i hit upload and nothing happens
then i cant acess anything else in unity
so i have to close it with task manager
woeful crest
yea, but normally there would be something to signify that its building, correct?
short forum
Those are just warnings. It will still work
woeful crest
first time ever doing something like this so
ive done avatars before but not full maps
short forum
But at the top, click on the play. Normally, it should bring you to the game menu in unity. If it doesnt, then unity isnt building the map correctly
woeful crest
wdym by game menu?
short forum
In your window, there should be three tabs. Editor, game, and asset store.
short forum
So when you hit "Build & Publish" it will build the world and it takes a bit, and it will bring you to the game screen with options to upload the world
woeful crest
yes
when i fill out everything in there and click on upload, nothing happens
i left it for a while the first time, came back 30 min and nothing
tried again
still nothing
so
bold ibex
did you click on the checkbox and add in tags @woeful crest ?
woeful crest
yes
bold ibex
are you able to build and test properly?
woeful crest
wdym?
bold ibex
for options, there's build and test and build and publish
short forum
Select "Build & Test" instead
woeful crest
ok
short forum
Compared to avatars, worlds give the option to test them locally
bold ibex
if that doesn't work, there's something wrong with the VRCWorld prefab.
short forum
Yes
bold ibex
after a while, yes. you will be put into a local test version of your world that cannot be reloaded or joined on. It is purely a build for testing to see if your world is working
woeful crest
ok so i clicked the test thing, but its only allowing me to open it through the microsoft store
bold ibex
your unity or sdk are set up incorrectly
woeful crest
what do i do?
bold ibex
reinstall vrchat, make a backup package of your world so you don't have to go through the process of remaking it, make a new project, put in the recent SDK after your vrchat reinstalls, and check the pathing to make sure the sdk is set up to open vrchat, then try again once you import the sdk then the new package you made of your world. An easy way to do that is to save it all as a scene, then once that scene gets put in your assets folder, click on it, go to Assets tab in top left selections, then export package and put it in a folder that you will remember to grab it from.
woeful crest
oh
somethign i forgot to mention
the map is being made as a group file
through teh unity teams thing
would that have anythign to do with it?
bold ibex
no.
woeful crest
sry for my spelling, happens when i type fast
bold ibex
i've used unity assets for my worlds before. it does not affect the sdk in that way
random owl
You can just run the install.exe in the vrchat folder if the app linking isn't working
bold ibex
oh right, i forgot about that
short forum
Probably where vrchat is installed
woeful crest
i might be a whiel cause i need to go search for it

I forgot how small vrchat actually is wow
woeful crest
ok
ran it
ok so
it runs now
now i got more problems
so
when spawning in, teh player falls through teh floor
how would i add a collision box?
woeful crest
ok
wold i have to do it to every single part one by one or could i add it to its main folder in teh hierarchy and fix it that way?
*would
short forum
Well depends if all the objects have a collider on them or not
woeful crest
no clue
short forum
You can click on multiple objects and add a mesh collider to any of them all at once
So long as the object is suppose to have a mesh collider
woeful crest
ok
thx
is there anything additional i need to do after adding the mesh coillider
or just add it and be done?
cobalt sluice
Just be aware that when you eventually add buttons to your map they shouldn't use a mesh collider. Use a Box Collider or Sphere Collider instead
cobalt sluice
But for the basic level collision mesh colliders are typically fine
woeful crest
ok, thx
also, if teh spawn area for my map has a ceiling, would you guys recommend that i leave it without a collider or should i add them
queen orbit
I think I missunderstod what you should do to upload your world to quest users. I took android
cobalt sluice
@woeful crest I typically prefer to have collision on objects, since players don't expect objects to be collisionless. If you leave collision off your ceiling, some people will fly out of the spawn room
But certainly make sure your ceiling is high enough so players don't get claustrophobic lol
short forum
Actually you can use mesh colliders for anything interactable. They just have to be convex and select "is trigger"
woeful crest
so i notice that the collider mesh has taken priority of teh render mesh on the objects, should i remove teh render mesh from teh objects or leave it
short forum
But typically, a box/sphere collider will do as well
cobalt sluice
Yeah you can mark them as convex. Shouldn't need to mark "is trigger" though? That's just for if you want collision or not
queen orbit
@short forum when you upload your world do I take android if I want it for quest users?
short forum
Correct
woeful crest
yes
cobalt sluice
@woeful crest there's no such thing as priority, you're fine if you have a mesh renderer + mesh collider
queen orbit
When I did that and joined with quest I could only see with 1 eye
cobalt sluice
I'm not sure what you're looking at. Where's the priority?
woeful crest
wait, i just had an idea
what if when making an avatar, the mesh type is set to collision mesh
and then two players with collision mesh avatars attempted to interact with each other in game
would the two playermodels collide with each other or no?
queen orbit
LOL the world crashed when I used the pen
cobalt sluice
No blockking, you can't collide with avatars but you can interact with dynamic bones using colliders on the same layer. Some worlds have avatars where you can mess with other people's hair and whatnot
short forum
^
cobalt sluice
But you have to be using special avatars with colliders on the hands set to that layer, so it's not very common
VRChat is looking to implement some form of player interaction in the future, it's in the Canny somewhere
Guess that one isn't planned actually
woeful crest
wait
so dynamic bones can interact between players if collisions are enabled for both sides?
is it normal for teh player to be unable to jump when in testing mode?
short forum
@woeful crest Are you using the VRCSDK2 or VRCSDK3
woeful crest
vrcsdk3
short forum
Ok so if you find your VRCWorld, it should allow you to edit the jump player mod automatically. Make sure it isnt 0

Search it in your Hierarchy. This is your spawn point.

Oh, well
There's a standard asset package in the Asset Store but it's for Unity2017 so I don't know if it works for 2018
woeful crest
where would i find the reference camera
pallid hazel
It's your main camera in Hierarchy
Actually it can be any camera, but this one is the default
random owl
Yeah standard assets aren't whitelisted in sdk3
woeful crest
ok, thx
ok, im in teh main camera, but i dont understand how im setting it to vrcworld

In VRCWorld, you will see a spot to plop a reference camera in. Just drag and drop your Main Camera to the reference camera spot.

I can't get object respawn to work in SDK3 when they fall off the map
short forum
I have not got that to work either. My current world I am building, players shouldn't be able to throw objects off the map so I didn't really worry about it.
pallid hazel
My world is in the sky so that's an issue for me
What's the best workaround? An object respawn button?
short forum
I was thinking of building my own collider for respawns instead of using the one built in to the vrcworld but hey, have not done that yet so idk
pallid hazel
Ok
Is there a way to make objects always face camera?
I wanted to try a prefab to do that but it seems like it's incompatible with SDK3
And I tried to use a LookAt component but it didn't work

im sorry im asking so many questions, i just legit dont know what im doing

Did you put your Audio file in the AudioClip section in your Audio Source?
tulip cedar
Yup - uh... don't laugh, the second I sent that message it started working???? I'm not sure what I did but it's fixed 😂

How does one make UI buttons/toggles/canvases interactable in VRCHat v3?
does the canvas need a collider or script of some kind?
cobalt sluice
@pallid hazel you would need to write a script for that
I would recommend using SDK2 though, you could just use the LookAt script from standard assets
Plus in SDK3 pickups are pretty wonky- if you try to teleport them bad things will happen
(In your scenario, you would need a large box collider below the map that teleports the objects back when they fall off)
@autumn talon the canvas needs a box collider on it (can be set to trigger) as well as the VRC_Uishape component
it's the same in SDK2
autumn talon
awesome, thanks

everytime i go to test the map I've made in vrchat, all teh changes and additions I've made aren't saved and wont upload with teh map when i go back to test again
what should i do
pallid hazel
@cobalt sluice thanks. I already started building my world in SDK3 for now, but I might rebuild to SDK2 if there's no other way
cobalt sluice
Sure, make sure you take a look at Merlin's U# compiler for if you're looking to do anything somewhat complicated in sdk3
Graphs work fine for simple buttons and whatnot, but you're far better off writing scripts for any sort of logic
autumn talon
@cobalt sluice do you know why the toggle works on desktop but in VR the pointer won't focus on it
it moves all around it and i can't click it in vr it's weird

Alright, serious post update issue.
Entering a chair that is connected to a fixed joint/rigidbody set up, sends the object flying with player in tow. The object remains still and functional otherwise.
The application is a vehicle with a chair using a fixed joint to follow it.
Functioned flawlessly before todays update.

Is there any way to get tiling/offset on VRC_Video Screen?
cobalt sluice
@autumn talon that looks like it's working? When you click the trigger does it toggle?
autumn talon
no
It acts like there's something in the way, i can't actually toggle it
works on desktop though
do the buttons need to be outside the collider?
Here's a better view, it feels like there's an odd box around the text stopping me from clicking it
cobalt sluice
Is the collider just on the canvas and set as a trigger?
Take the collider off, looks like mine works without it actually
I think if there's no collider the VRC_Uishape component just adds one when you build? Just guessing though
autumn talon
i tried without the collider and couldn't get it working in desktop. I'll try again though
cobalt sluice
Make sure your toggle is set up properly
It needs to span the whole distance, not just the "Background" and "Label" children
Also you should really put your Canvas on the "Default" layer if it's not already
Or maybe "Interactive" or similar if you want to hide that layer in mirror reflections
autumn talon
oh dear, removing my collider makes my fly when i move around, I think i'm colliding with the one added automatically
cobalt sluice
lol
well keep a trigger collider on it. That makes sense that the one added via the script has collision
I forgot your canvas is set to Screen Space - Camera
autumn talon
yup, set to that, and layer default
I'm going to try to move the button just above the canvas
nope, it's weird it's like something's blocking it.
Uh....
VRChat is automatically changing the size of the collider 😕
before play:
it modifies it and makes it unclickable D:
does it force set the value if yours is too small?
Anyone know why it's resizing? D:
IT resizes the collider no matter what it seems, but the auto resize is blocking itself in some weird way idk
putting it above my user works, i think the collider blocks itself if it's at a strait line angle like that
cobalt sluice
huh weird
you could test with a world space canvas, I've never messed with screen space before

@near escarp kinda helped but still not reflecting from correct point

What's the point you want to reflect from ?
that's where the probe would need to be
but i feel like you're trying to get two different perspective at the same time and i don't know if that's possible
simple nimbus
essentially i want the effect that the vertical panel is emitting onyo the ground
as if the vertical panel is the light sourceand everything else is dark and there's no other light source
i have Emission on the panel, but from what i've read emission doesn't actually apply reflection?
near escarp
Oh i see, in that case the probe would be on the ground, but that seems difficult to do

Button was wayyy too big, so I scaled it down, however the text is squashed now

Been doing this for a few years but this is a first surprisingly. No matter what I do, I always get a broken lookin New World screen when I try and publish an update to my world. Nothing in the console seems to point to any specific issue that would cause this. Doesn't matter what world ID I put in, always get the same screen. I restarted, reloaded the SDK, and tried a few things but I always get the same screen. Build and Test works fine. But the New World screen is borked and doesn't even work. I've seen this screen before, but normally it only flashes it for half a second before all the info from the world ID pops in and the normal Upload screen shows up. Never had it persist like this

bold ibex
@frosty oar When you drag the prefab into the scene, you'll need to add the blueprint ID to the description in the pedestal's inspector tab. That's about it.

You can grab your id from your content when you go into the sdk

Hey guys, I'm following along with a tutorial over at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VW0NXr6eUg. at about 7:30 he goes on to add a VRC_Trigger component. But this isn't showing up on my list. When I search my project, I find the vrc_trigger, but it looks empty. There is a vrc_trigger editor with data in place..
fluid cipher
If you are using SDK3 then you can no longer use triggers, everything must be done with Udon
odd rock
ahhh nuts... I really wanted something that could lock
fluid cipher
You can always just use SDK2 if you want, but we can do mostly everything that we could do with triggers with Udon

Ok cool. I am going to dig into udon. I'm on a new tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw4uvjrvdbU that helps with opening the doors... this one looks promising

@royal bay maybe look into moving your spawn point so that way you can take a better look at what happened?

If I had someone holding my hand it would be a little easier, I have never touched single piece yet because I'm still writing it all out on paper

reef sparrow
you can either reuse the world geometry as mesh colliders, or you could add in primitive colliders directly in unity to approximate the world collisions
mesh colliders are less optimised than primitive colliders
alternatively, u can also model a low-poly mesh for the world to use as a mesh collider

New to world creation, I do not have the required amount of time played to upload worlds, can I still play them locally? I am using VRchat for a school project
fierce jackal
@wraith ruin Far as i know when you use a custom animation on chair, all your gestures/emotes will be replaced if you use animator controller or vrchat's gestures and set animation to idle.
not sure if sdk3 does it differently (barely touched it)
You can test world local without rank (was blue before i tried that though) https://i.gyazo.com/27be62a7e2a45126c3309e6e29a70207.png
if it still starts in vr , you have to set the path to vrchat.exe in the sdk settings/client path
Wish i knew that awhile ago instead of uploading same world 200+ times :p
red fable
@ripe flower Yes you can. In Unity, you can build and Test locally (probably still need to be connected to internet though)

I couldn't seem to find anything about it while searching google and the discord, so asking here. Is there any way to change the scale of avatars opposed to the world?
eg, say the character was too short and had to be taller, is there no way to make people spawning in the world, have their height/scale adjusted opposed to the world?

If they are humanoid and you have the ability to make them play a humanoid animation, humanoid animations can scale humanoid armatures up and down.
I don’t know if IK will work right or not, I’ve only seen it done on posed stations
Like someone carried an Easter basket that shrink you 1:1 while sitting in it

Hi guys any tips to reducing world size? I have all my textures at 256 but my world size is at 40mb despite being small.
odd rock
You can use tools like Amplify Imposter to get the poly count down low. You can group assets together using Easy Combine. You can limit your polys by decimating models that are seen at a distance. Research FOV and Blender. In Unity, have your occlusion window open and use it. Bake your lighting when you can.

Rotation constraint component and position constraint component 💯 @cinder sparrow
Lets you lock an object to follow the position or rotation of another game object. If it does not move, it’s effectively a value lock
So for example the slider that can move only left and right needs a position constraint that locks the two other axis and lock rotation on all three. The one that spins locks all three position axis and two rotation ones

Is the progressive CPU lightmapper better than enlighten? 👀

@wise hill make sure your pp volume script is set to "global" and the camera is set it should be working for PP 2.x

if you can see the bloom in the scene - and the VRC scene descriptor has the camera attached _ global is set in the PP volume script then it should work - try turning the bloom up a bit after checking

Reflections are working in-game now thanks to your help. Now just gotta figure out why the the vertices look skewed in the reflection probe
If you feel like it's looking odd I've seen some people add reflection probes that are just for the window to have it more accurate
@random owl Ah, I'll try that then

Try again?

Disabling box projection fixes the UV distortion for me
In case anyone wanted to know that
graceful arch
still not working
graceful arch
getting these errors
red fable
One of your assets is causing errors
Try removing it / reimporting
Make sure you have the latest version
If it works after removing it, then might not be able to use it anymore as it'll keep causing errors
graceful arch
i did remove assests and getting the same thing also have latest version
red fable
Try in a new project
As a test
You can determine whether it's your project or the asset itself

what's the difference between Master and Owner when talkin about triggers?
near escarp
master is the instance master, owner is the owner of the object

it literally says the error is caused by the poiyomi folder
@near escarp right, that's what I meant

Anyone ever run into an issue where a voice priority collider will work for some users and not others?
it almost seems like it doesn't work on users who have visited a previous version of the map
but we've all reset our caches in and out of vrchat
nope, apparently that's not it >.< a fresh user has the same issue. But the priority consistently works for the same users and does not work for the same users across different instances
wicked crown
Solved it by renaming the colliders 🤷 must have been some wack caching persistence

Excuse me, how do I paint the terrain texture to become ground/grass? I appreciate the help so much
red fable
Get out blender and paint it in UV editing mode
It's by far the most intuitive in the actual modeling program as far as I'm concerned
Unless your tool has a special function for it
sacred warren
@thorn scaffold See the brush? That
Unity terrain is far more efficient than using a giant mesh, so no need for Blender.

quick question...does the proximity option in vrc_pickup do anything now?

is the unity hd render pipeline compatible with vrchat?
and would it be possible to create a photorealistic vrc world?
ye
or is it at least possible to use the unity post processing stack with vrc?
i'm getting ready to create a new vrc world
and i want to make it look as nice as possible
random owl
VRChat uses the built in render pipeline which supports the post processing v2 stack
To set it up for vrchat either refer to this guide:
https://gitlab.com/s-ilent/SCSS/-/wikis/Other/Post-Processing
Or try my world tools which has a quick auto setup function for post processing:

how do I use multiple audio files in one audio source to play different sounds?
red fable
@dire vigil You can also just follow this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=RDCMUCdedu-nAwMACE5WbVcmp3Bg&v=Ts2F2SxeRSY&feature=emb_rel_end
Then after that, just add the camera to the reference camera in VRCWorld
red fable
FYI, I checked the global option instead of putting the camera inside the box collider. But if you're not checking that option, you need the camera inside the box collider. The video will explain it
dire vigil
hmm
ok
i'm getting ready to design a snowy enviroment in unity, throw a bunch of fancy postprocessing and particles on it, and set it up for vrc
hopefully it wont run horribly in vrc
red fable
I'm using the post processing bloom right now. I get a solid FPS on it
So I guess it just depends on your implementation details
dire vigil
ah yes, snow

can you launch instances of worlds that arent public?
I want people to test my world without committing it to the community labs yet
I mean launching instances from your browser

@frigid estuary have a script with multiple public AudioClips. Call audiosource.playSingleShot() and give it one of the AudioClips

thanks @proper lion !

@proper lion You can upload it as private and no one else can see it unless you invite them
And you can launch it from the browser from vrchat.com
If you're the owner, you can see your own private worlds, including on vrchat.com
red fable
It's private
Private means only the owner
Unless you want to invite somebody there of course, but that's the only time
proper lion
alright, thank you
red fable
Yes, people can join it and test if you give them an invite, even though it's not public and no one else can see it
red fable
I'm thinking whether I can fake the outside scenery of a window (as viewed from the inside) by using some cameras attached to the in-game outside window location, making it look more realistic than throwing a cubemap onto the window
Would it be performance heavy if I added like 30 cameras to a scene, but only ever use 6 at a time?
Would rendering 6 cameras to a screen (not the same mesh/texture, so no problems there) at a time be performance heavy?
random owl
@proper lion if you give them the link to the world id on the website they can launch into the world whenever they want even if it's private
@red fable even if it goes into the same render texture that's still gonna be all the cameras rendering stuff at the same time adding all the drawcalls they have happening to what needs to be rendered
red fable
So I guess I should just stick to a pre-rendered cubemap and cubemap shader then
random owl
Yes having 6 cameras for just windows sounds like a horrible idea performance wise

i'm using SilVR water rig v3.4 and have never had issues with it, but for some reason now the SilVR tab isn't showing in unity so i can do the autoconfig
anyone have any experience with this?
nevermind, i noticed VRCSDK was giving itself errors in the console so it wasn't compiling

what layer should I put a Canvas on to allow Raytracing to hit it (i.e. to allow interaction with it) but not have it collide with Pickups?
right now my Pickups are able to collide with the canvas and I'd rather not have that happen

Hey guys, I have a question about the hinge joint and rigid body. Those are doors out by those clouds. Those doors are meant to be attached to an airship. However! The airship has left it's doors behind. Is this because of rigidbody or am I missing a step here?

@red fable I've seen video on how they made the Spiderman game on ps4 and they made a window shader that faked the 3d interior.
They made like 5 of them, that's why every window shows one of 5 interiors
red fable
That's exactly what I was referring to in fact 😄
Only I'm reversing mine to get on "outside" look from the inside
proper lion
Ah, I didn't know much much about it. I wouldn't even know how to make a shader like that
red fable
Actually, one is already made, so that's 100x easier 😉
And the Youtube video for setting it up

A text tutorial on the first part on generating the cubemap (in case the video isn't clear?)

how do you change the seat height in the vrc station?
proper lion
Make an empty seat position object and bind it to the seat location property, then move it up or down

Thanks for the link
@proper lion You're welcome 😉 I figured you might want it so you could use it in your projects
proper lion
Not sure what the property is called @odd rock

@proper lion You're welcome 😉 I figured you might want it so you could use it in your projects
@red fable absolutely. I just avoided shaders altogether in the past. Might be a good opportunity

You're welcome @odd rock

I've learned that shaders are surprisingly powerful to do things you need. For example, I made one crystal glow (and oscillate the glow), and another crystal change through rainbow colors
Like this. In the end, it was pretty simple once you know how to do it
proper lion
Looks super cool. At some point I'll be looking into them
hard cedar
that looks awesome! (and I love the music)
odd rock
wow that's super nice
hard cedar
I actually used to write a ton of shaders in college for some classes I took; I think I might have an idea of how that's done
guessing shaders get absolute world time passed into them, and you can base the hue off of that and the normal-camera azimuth?
hard cedar
ah, interesting
red fable
Just set an emission / glow. Give it a rainbow texture. Then set the tiling super small so it'll only see one color at a time. Up the emission. Use center out emission to make it flow
odd rock
I'm not sure if my head can take it Indominale, right now I am working through how my world keeps crashing... it's not incredibly detailed.. everything is baked, occlusion is working...
red fable
In mine, I set the tiling so it would see a little more than one color at a time. That's how I get it to meld different colors. But if you make it smaller, you can make it purely one shade changing at a time
If you want to do something interesting, you can download different kinds of rainbow images online too

When you enable a gameobject's parent, does it also receive an onEnable trigger, even if it was already enabled as a child?
