Real quick: how do i have my point light cast real time shadows? i can't seem to figure out how to do that
sooo to get shadows i have to use something else you say?
when i tried it in a previous test i had one rotate around a pole and the shadow would move so i'm confused why this one doesn't even cast any shadows
they are turned on
i think every setting was used at some point with the amount of trying out i did
those are the setting right now
it still wont work. i replaced it with the one on your settings on both soft and hard shadows and it still won't show any shadows

Is it possible with sdk2 to make an object set off a trigger? For example if I wanted to make pumpkins smashable with a bat, would I be able to make it so that when the bat makes contact with the pumpkin, it deactivates the model of the pumpkin and activates a model of a smashed one in its place, along with a particle emitter (for the pumpkin goo). Basically can I make the collider of a specific object activate a trigger when it comes into contact with another collider/trigger?

@chilly trellis Create a camera in your scene, (where doesn't matter) and name it whatever you want. Open the object you applied the sdk's world script to and drag the camera into the reference camera slot.
Back in the camera, ensure that it's set to skybox. The default settings for a fresh camera spawn are usually okay.

i'm not seeing anything in the console
bold ibex
And would the enter trigger be on the pickup or the other thing?
Sorry for the bombardment of questions
near escarp
Press play first at least once, might be cleared automatically @meager badge
@bold ibex the trigger would be on the pickup, and the static object would have a collider set to trigger as well
Use any layer that match in the collision matrix
meager badge
that's all there is in my console
near escarp
Well that's the issue
You have two vrc world or at least to many components of the same type for upload
Only one pipeline manager
So check your scene
bold ibex
So basically, make the pickup the same layer as the static object and have the vrc trigger component with onentertrigger on the static object?
bold ibex
Both need a box collider with is trigger checked as well?
Ok. So then what components do the static object need?
Thanks for the help btw
near escarp
I don't know if the one of the pickup needs to be Is Trigger
The static component just needs a collider and the proper layer
Any layer that can interact with the pickup layer
near escarp
You can check the collision matrix in project settings and physics I think
Or you can Google it real quick
meager badge
as far as i'm concerned i only have one pipeline manager and thats in my only vrcworld
what exactly do you mean by "too many components of the same type for upload"?
near escarp
It's somewhere in the menus, admittedly not obvious to find
bold ibex
Gotcha, thanks again!
near escarp
@meager badge The upload fails because there's too many components of the same type related to uploading the world, so it silently fails

Alright, it's been a week or so since i asked last, still haven't found a solution.
I need a way to resolve avatar jittering/stuttering while in vehicles. It's hampering play as the avatars seem to induce drag based on position and interfere with vehicle handling at high speeds.

I have no Idea what happened but my world is doing a double rendering glitch on quest now, the world was perfectly fine before an update I just put out and now its unusable, no shaders were changed and nothing to my knowledge is using grab pass, in game it is no longer rendering the skybox unless I stand in front of a mirror. I swapped out the skyboxes thinking that was the issue but it did not help. All I did was add a new mirror with a second area but its turned off by default
I'd be very appreciative of any help due to me already having to remake a good chunk of the world today after unity just decided to scrap everything randomly and I had to redo a lot from and older build

pickup component
neat badger
Let's say I have a container with objects in it, which are children of it. Is it possible to allow players to pick up the container with the objects, and/or pick up the objects inside the container easily, or would that require Udon coding or trying to make it work janky with colliders and physics?
rugged tundra
Hola
lethal moss
if the objects are children of the container they will move with the container when one picks it up
neat badger
@lethal moss But what if one then picks up the children? What happens then? Will they be able to pick them up? If they put them down will they behave as if they're still parented to the container, and move with it?
I suppose if this doesn't work, since I'm using UDON it might be possible to use constraints to constrain the children to the parent object, and then remove those constraints when they are picked up... Not that this is a big priority for me, but its an interesting problem. ๐
near escarp
@neat badger the child object does not have the pickup script so nothing happens
neat badger
@near escarp I gave the children pickup scripts.
near escarp
yeah that's the issue
lethal moss
@neat badger I'm not sure how giving both children and parents pickup scripts would work, I never tried that before. Did you give it a shot? how did it turn out?
sinful moss
Need help from someone who's worked with cars via standard assets, having some pretty severe sound issues. I still can't get the audio to spatialize.
neat badger
@lethal moss I did give it a shot an hour ago and... Well... The container was nowhere to be found. It apparently exploded. Some of my other objects also disappeared. Perhaps their colliders were inside of the objects and terrain they were sitting on? This is my first time adding physical objects to a world. My chair, which I thought was nothing more than a static object with an udon chair prefab as a child of it also decided to disappear the moment after I got up out of it. It did apparently have a rigidbody on it, so perhaps that explains that behavior.
Anyway... back on the subject of the container... while it had gone bye bye, the objects it previously contained remained right where I'd placed them. But they were shaking uncontrollably. I was able to pick them up and place them down in another location, but they continued to shake violently. The container also had a rigibody on it, with gravity enabled, as did the objects I placed in it. I believe the VRCPickup script automatically adds those because one of the objects I know for certain didn't have a rigidbody before I added the script, but it does now. So that must be required. Anyway, I'm at a loss to explain the shaking behavior. It does make sense from the perspective of them being parented to the object containing them, that if it was shaking, they would be as well, but it does not make sense from the perspective that if they're shaking its probably because the container left the world and was falling forever, but they are not falling with it. Or maybe they are, but they are unable to penetrate the ground? But if so I'd expect gravity to be applied twice to them. But I didn't exactly do a scientific test to see if that was the case because that possibility only just occurred to me.
In any case... I'm not sure trying to do this was a good idea. I suspect part of the reason the container was gone was because its collider was colliding with the colliders of the child objects it contained and the physics system didn't like that. But at least two of the children were right where they should be, and I'd have expected them to be gone as well if that was the case.
lethal moss
You're doing it in udon? i've only used SDk2. YA the VRC_Pickup does add a rigidibody automatically. But that shaking does sound wild, i'm not sure whats doing that.
neat badger
Well it's an SDK3 world, but I haven't actually had to touch UDON yet. VRC_Pickup exists within SDK3 and can be put on objects, it seems.
I'm not sure if it would be possible to make this work even with Udon. In theory, you'd probably want to disable the rigidbodies on the children until they're picked up, but if VRChat is adding them they're probably needed to interact with the objects at all. So there would be no way to trigger the script to then re-enable the rigidbodies. Anyway I'll probably just make the container a static object on the ground or make the objects in it static. It's not really worth all the effort since I have limited time to finish this world before Halloween.
lethal moss
it migt help to make the container wihtout gravity, so its physics are not so janky when interacting wiht the child objects. it might work this way: you can have a trigger inside of the container. use the OnPickup trigger for the container. When you pick it up, it enables this trigger/collider iside the container . Any child objects inside this trigger (OnEnterTriiger for your objects) has its gravity disabled, its colldier component disabled, and becomes kinematic. Then reverse it wth a OnDrop for the container that disables the trigger, and the objects and a OnExitCollider trigger reinstate their gravity and colliders, etc
neat badger
Oh that reminds me. VRChat seems to have a bug where the outline of an object you can pickup will be defined by all of its LOD levels instead of just the current one. I noticed this on a beer can which had a weird spiky outline when I highlighted it.
lethal moss
but ya i think if you move the container, the children will also be effected no matter what
so ya, maybe better to make the container a static object

click on "SetGameObjectActive"
mossy fog
no worries, take your time
I am basicly trying to make a gun that fires a particles as fast as you can click (every click equals one particle emitted). Since I only want it to shoot once I set the particle to burst fire. Also the particles are simulated in a world space and pretty slow, therefore enableing and disabling the particle system itself it not an option as I want the particle to continue flying. I can not get my particle system to emit a single particle on click, any Ideas how?
mild spade
(i have never tried this before), have you tried using the action "SetParticlePlaying"? I am not sure if it fires another particle or if it repeats the particle, but you could try it.
mossy fog
I tried using said action with no success
Only thing I can think of is to spawn a particle system on click which would then delete itself via Stop Action after all particles have died.
But that just doesnt seem right.
mild spade
So if you use the "setParticlePlaying" it does not shots another one? I just remembered I have a world what uses particles that you spawn using the trigger, and it fires a single one each time I press the trigger individually. I have push trigger to setParticlePlaying as true, and button trigger pull (OnPickUpUseUp) setParticlePlaying as false.
mossy fog
Let me try once again, if it doesnt work I ll make a few screenshots of my trigger aswell as the particle.
How do you treat the Particle System itself, will it be active all the time?
(resulting in firing once when you load into the world?)
mild spade
Mine was ON at all times and "Play on awake" to off
mossy fog
Okay, I got it working with the "SetParticlePlaying" action, thank you very much.
Probably had the particle system disabled when I tested it the first time. ๐
mild spade
ah xD glad it worked
mossy fog
I ll now work on limiting the amount of particles that can be created per second, that should be fairly easy though.
mossy fog
Or so I thought ...
Here is how I tried to solve it
Gun Trigger:
Custom Trigger:
I tried disableing the VRC_Trigger component and triggered an external custom trigger who then enables the VRC_Trigger component after 1 second.
If you spam real fast you can break this though
Any ideas anyone?
mild spade
Hmm, what is the purpose of having it fire another custom trigger? sorry I am confused. Also, you should not call a buffered action within another buffered action. If the first one is buffered, the second one should be local since everyone will buffer the first one, so there is no need to buffer that one to everyone again.
mossy fog
True
The purpose of the second custom trigger is the implementation of a delay.
Fire on click, but with one second cooldown essentially.

hey all question for anyone:
i'm trying to make a remote (bunch of buttons/flatcubes on a flat cube) that is a pickup. i have them all under an empty game object called remote and i've applied the mesh collider/rigidbody/vrc_pickup/objectsync to that parent object but it isn't being pickup-able when i test, is this method going to work?
mild spade
Could be a problem with the collider. Since it is a rectangle, I would suggest just adding a cube collider (with is trigger ON) instead of the mesh collider. On your picture, I cant see the collider outline on the remote parent. @golden heart
mossy fog
I did what you did with my little gun prefabs @golden heart. Though I left the Box Collider component Is Trigger off, otherwise it falls through the floor.
golden heart
okay cool ill try the box collider, ty both
hopefully i can still use the buttons when its picked up lol haven't even gotten that far but they work when its not picked up so far

You should be able to.

is timing out when pressing build & test a cause of pc problems or problems of the world being too big?
random owl
There's a bunch of reasons why that can happen
meager badge
which would be easiest to spot?
random owl
If in your scene descriptor you have a null spawn point that's one cause
meager badge
where do i find that
random owl
If you just dropped in the VRCWorld prefab then it shouldn't be the issue
Since that by default has stuff setup right
meager badge
i did right at the beginning
i did test the maps a few times before but now after adding a bit more stuff i time out
random owl
The world debugger in my world tools covers all the usual causes for it happening though
https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit/releases
meager badge
this is what it says
random owl
Yeah I should be covering all the problems on vrchats side
Though there's some server outage going on atm so it could be causing you to time out
random owl
Just 300 mb size shouldn't cause problems
meager badge
ok good, thank you!
random owl
But depending on what you have in that size it can
meager badge
what exactly would be bad to have in that?
random owl
VRChat might be doing a sanity check for some stuff when loading in
But it's a bit too vague for me to start naming stuff
meager badge
oh so stuff like moving lights with shadows and a few bunch of pickups (like 20 or so) won't be a problem right
random owl
As long as the world is looking better than the last one I looked at from you no ๐
meager badge
how can i check the polygons and vertices
and if you're talking from a visual standpoint i think it looks a lot better
random owl
Go into play mode and move the camera around while looking at the stats panel is a good sanity check
Just mainly talking about performance
Since just as it was the last world wasn't gonna run well
meager badge
this is what you'll see when spawning in and it isn't 4.3B
random owl
Yeah that looks very alright
Batches could be lower but not the worst
Also last time the extremely high numbers were partly just unity failing to calculate them properly
meager badge
this is looking at most the map from the outside
random owl
Like very simply put it's just how many different things your gpu needs to get done
random owl
For proper optimization you atlas things to get and combine stuff
Oh yeah and you have realtime lights as well
Multiple real time lights ups stuff considerably
You can try turning them all off and checking the stats again
meager badge
i have 12 real time lights being turned on at all time and 8 flashlights with real time light being turned off by default
that too much?
3 of the lights also have little animations
meager badge
now its at 741
i tried to place the camera as close to the point where i took that other image as well so that might alter the result a bit
but will turning off the shadows suffice to make it run better?
meager badge
is that some crazy process or is it just putting the mode from real time to baked?
cuz i think i remember someone saying something about that in a tutorial i've watched but i might've just misheard stuff
random owl
Just setting it to baked basically does nothing
meager badge
how do i bake it then?

There's some guides pinned in #world-lighting

hi guys a quick question about osc in sdk2. am I right in thinking that any osc signals from my machine will only propagate to users in the same world instance?
or to put it another way is it at all possible to propagate my osc signals to all instances of my world? for example say putting on a little vj act to hundreds of users simultaneously
random owl
Yeah there is no connection between world instances in vrchat
You can do video player trickery and such though if you want to do stuff on all instances
charred turtle
cool thought that was the case.. thanks for the info
just to confirm when you say video player trickery do you mean encoding your data as pixels and reading back in each instance from the video stream?
random owl
Basically people have been using shaders to read data from videos in sdk2
Here's IK done using a shader and a video stream
charred turtle
interesting thanks
you said โand suchโ are there other hacks that you know of?
bold ibex
i have an issue with the vrchatsdk control panel it won't open up when i click on it

@charred turtle I mean if you run a external program for all attendees that you control remotely doing the osc commands for everyone or something similar by that

I have a very odd bug/issue with updating my world. I can upload new updates and changes but for whatever reason both in-game and on the webpage, The information doesn't change or show as recently updated.
I tried putting in a support ticket but unfortunately the support team wasn't able to figure out the issue.
Has anyone else seen or run into this bug and if so. Was you able to fix it and how?

For some reason, PC and Quest users see pickup objects differently. For example, PC User holds an apple but Quest user sees something else. I think the problem is only happening when you delete certain pickup objects in Quest world but you keep them in PC World, it will break the sync between PC and Quest. Is there any way to fix this?

If you still need it, msg me.
@compact dove I've had the same experience, it usually updates after a while (about 1-2h) for me though.

Did it never update?

Nope. Even now it's still showing the older info

Nothing seems to work but the world itself does upload the newer versions.

Yea... I don't wanna lose the following it's picked up. A lot of folk have it favorited and such.

Well, you could upload a second version as newer version and put a sign in the old one explaining the circumstances, then delete the old one after a week.

You can probably find some in the asset store. Besides that, its easy to just put a floor and walls and set up the avatars if you dont care how your world looks.
probaly the wrong channel but how would i rig somthing so if you interact with it you get teleported ?
You have to add a vrc trigger component to the bottle's collider and set the trigger to 'teleport player'
Make an empty game object and set it to where you want the player to be teleported
Then put that "spawn" in the vrc trigger component on the bottle that you added earlier
Make sure the collider is set to 'is trigger' also
Yes in Unity when I click on the Particle in Hiearchy.
I'm not sure then. Maybe some problem with the particle's shader? Try changing the shaders, I'd guess.
I had some problems with planes and what not just disappearing in VRC and figured out it was a shader incompatibility thing

If you absolutly cant get it to work. Create a new Unity project, import the Sdk first, pack all the files from your old project, but exclude any vrc files/components and import it into your new project. @vagrant shale

My test & build function isn't working. When I try to test my world, it just loads right into the old version without building , doesn't update. I tried making a new basic world and still fails. Does anyone know a fix for this? thx

Something is stopping the build from being done properly so it's loading you to the old one, you console should have more information on what is causing it
summer zealot
ok thanks yes I did take a look at the console, it does give me this error a lot "CS0618: 'WWW' is obsolete: 'Use UnityWebRequest, a fully featured replacement which is more efficient and has additional features'"
I am not advanced yet enough to know what to do with that.

Those are warnings and can be ignored
There should be a few red errors after trying to do the build
Also make sure the box at the top saying error pause is ticket off

thank you for your reply, i am getting this still even though i deleted all those assets
sorry i am new to this

If that specific error is still appearing when building it doesn't sound like it was deleted
You can try restarting unity

oh! i thought if i just deleted from the scene it was enough but i deleted it from the project and it worked again , thank youu.

Does anyone know of a way to script for the player to change the skybox, or alternatively, make a world with a bunch of rooms that have different skyboxes? I want to make a solar system exploration world where players can navigate to different regions
mossy fog
@sinful moss I remember something like that too, but depending on what you want to do, udon might be better for this.
@sterile niche You could create big spheres/cubes around your individual rooms/player areas and attach custom skyboxes to those.
@vapid badge I might just have an idea how, but I need to test that first. Creating some space between your rooms would be the easiest solution.
sterile niche
Having the option to switch the skybox would probably be better then
mossy fog
@uneven trail Message me when you have some time and we can take a look at it together.
sterile niche
so far this is what I got for the world, but I don't imagine it'll be all that fancy looking, the scripting would probably do the heavy lifting
So I'm thinking the player can touch the pedestals and change the skybox corresponding to it, and also get some text and details about the planet
mossy fog
@vapid badge I figured, I ll test something, but just for clearances, explain your setup in more detail, I assume you have an audio source playing somewhere and an appartment/house with 2 floors, right?

vapid badge
top is top floor, bottom is bottom floor, there's a fireplace and the top obviously has a video player
@mossy fog
mossy fog
@vapid badge I have a solution for you.
First I recreated your scene
I added a box collider on the lower level with an OnEnterTrigger and OnExitTrigger action
These are controlling a boolean parameter that is called FullAudio and depending on the state of this value 2 different animations will be played, AudioFull (when true or OnEnterTrigger) and AudioHalf (when false or OnExitTrigger)
The Animations themselves controll the Volume of the Audio Source going from 0.1 to 1.0 and the other way around with Loop Time disabled. (I know the value of 0.1 isnt half the Audio, I realized 0.5 was barely noticable so I changed it to 0.1 without renaming the animations)

balmy gate
@mossy fog make absolutely sure you have Align to Room turned off
it does more than just align... it also offsets you by your playspace
mossy fog
I have no choice here, I need the player to face a certain direction.
balmy gate
try the teleport without Align to Room just to see if it works well enough
If you're really stuck, you can do a multi-teleport strategy
so teleport with Align to Room, then immediately teleport again without Align To Room
it shouldn't cause any trouble because it won't run physics if you do both teleports in the same frame
teleporting the player multiple times per frame is a common approach in several SDK2 player locomotion systems
mossy fog
Yea, I was thinking that might be a way, I ll do that then, thanks!

@sterile niche you can use an inverted sphere as your skybox and change that with multiple spheres, etc.

The issue i seem to be running into now is all of the spheres that I duplicate share the same shader, so when I change the cubemap they all change.

im trying to put pickup objects in my new world (specifically 4 sets of DnD dice) and it looks fine in unity, but when i test the world, all the dice are gone?? the rest of the world is fine, its just the dice that are missing

If they're set to use gravity by default, they could be colliding with something else at spawn and that makes them fly away

can someone help me figure out why my avatar pedestals are selectable from arbitrarily far away, from certain angles?
random owl
Might not wanna make your avatar pedestals always unbuffered
Not so sure about the far away selection though

Is there a larger collider around the world ?
primal sequoia
no, but i think I figured it out
having them as trigger colliders was the problem I guess.
and thank you for the tip 1.
it wasn't causing any issues but ๐คทโโ๏ธ

Using that with multiple people in the world should be changing everyone's avatars when one person selects it @primal sequoia
primal sequoia
it doesn't though X)

Trying to Upload an SDK 2 world and it won't allow me,
It's also a world I've uploaded before a while ago and Im trying to
update it basically but whenever I press the button Nothing Happens at all
Why is this happening and why won't it just upload as the same world
I even have the same Blueprint ID on the world. https://gyazo.com/84cc62d255b7dc3ae548d478730cab20

I am using the latest instance of the VRChat SDK
and the Console isn't telling me anything that really jumps out at me
near escarp
No errors ?
random owl
That usually happens when you have multiple pipeline managers
Search for "t:pipelinemanager" in hierarchy
near escarp
Multiple delegators in existence error then
random owl
That is not really related
near escarp
lunar jolt
Is there a specific searchbar I can use to look for components?
lunar jolt
would it just work in the hierarchy searchbar?
random owl
The search query I typed above ^^
lunar jolt
@random owl it worked
I had 2 pipeline managers in the project. I had this unity package I imported while trying to add an NPC with an animation to my world and I forgot to remove the avatar pipline manager
-facepalm. Thanks

Hi. I've been trying to use some custom collision layers in my world, but far as I can tell they seem to be getting overridden as default when in game.
Is there anything else I need to be doing in order to assign objects to a custom layer?

@simple nimbus Check your console
@near escarp managed to have time to check. don't get much besides

Which settings do you have ?

the lowest stuff and then i think the default for bounces and the other thing
on simple mode
it's only gotten to 22% now

How is the proximity for the on interact trigger calculated? I feel like it's being super inconsistent
does it scale based on parents and local object scale?
near escarp
@simple nimbus how complex is your scene ? aka how many lights/objects
@sinful moss it is very inconsistent in some case
especially if you're inside another trigger
simple nimbus
About 7 point lights and maybe 250 light probes total
But thatโs probably on the lighter end
Objects I guess there are a decent amount, but when I do a clean generate with just unity it takes maybe 20 minutes total
near escarp
You should ask Mr F
he might have some insight
make sure to post screenshots of your scene and settings there
simple nimbus
thanks

So i made a world with the sdk3 (i didn't upload it bc it was just a test) but i didn't like how it didn't have trigger support so i made a new project with the sdk2 and was wondering how do i get the in game url input for the video sync like in the sdk3 which has it in the prefab

my unity version is fine and im using the sdk2 thats listed on vrc

Check your spawn locations, check your outputlog for when you joined your world

how do i check outputlog?

i've been having issues with the sync video stream component on sdk 2 lately. has anyone else run into the following issues and/or have potential fixes?
- new players joining world just experience the video stopping and starting until the next video begins (or doing next then previous to go to the original video)
- For some users i've seen video working but no sound as well
- Resync using local just doesn't seem to do anything
I wanted to bump this. Experienced all these yesterday in an instance with 20ish people in it. Anyone know why? Or even workarounds?

could somebody help me with the sdk 3.0 , If i press non-vr mode it still starts in vr its so annoying i dont want to upload it everytime

This channel is for sdk2 #udon-general is for sdk3, but you need to point the sdk settings directly to the vrchat.exe for the non-vr button to work

I'm having a problem where I don't see the Community Labs option when trying to upload a world
tawdry apex
im having that same issue
placid sedge
Hmm
tawdry apex
i dont want my world to go into community labs luckily however when i press publish it doesnt really upload and it just hangs
placid sedge
It has to go into Labs before anything
placid sedge
Understandable
I think it still needs to go into Labs? I don't know cause I literally can't post worlds and this is my first one
I've only ever done Avatars
tawdry apex
no anythign that is in labs is public
labs is like the first step to becoming public
well right now, I cant upload anything, because that error we are having where labs option doesnt show up is also preventing an upload
not even private worlxds
because it just says publishing world for an eternaty and nothing happens
near escarp
@frozen glade nope

ah that sucks. If only Unity would move the colliders perfectly when increasing the size of a whole house

Hi! I am EXTREMELY new to VR Chat and I haven't explored it very far, however don't know really how to explore it. I was hoping to use VR Chat to create a very minimal VR concert experience, hoping to build it using assets created in Maya then plugging into unity and vr chat to test it out. If anyone has done something similar before or could offer some advice/resources that may be of good help, I'd greatly appreciate it. This will be a class project, I have around two months to complete it, and don't know if it is something I can accomplish in that time period. and I apologize if this is not what this chat is meant for or if I were to publish this in the wrong channel. Thank you in advance!
near escarp
As long as you export as an fbx, the workflow should be the same
make sure to export as binary instead of ascii though
idle tusk
do you have any resources for how to actually explore worlds in vr chat? it says I haven't used it long enough so it would let me upload into it, however i don't know how to access worlds. Idk if thats a dumb question, im still trying to learn the program and am teaching myself the majority of it so i could be speaking nonsense
near escarp
If you open the menu with escape in vrchat, worlds is the top left icon, click on anything, either join a public instance or create your own and click go
top right corner of the worlds menu has a search bar
idle tusk
thank you!
even when I hit "launch" its not allowing me to do so
or am i using the wrong menu?
near escarp
On the website or app ?
idle tusk
website
my professor advised me to do through steam vs oculus until i get the hang of it, should i be launching through steam?
near escarp
i'd suggest making a vrchat account, but launching and then closing vrchat should prompt you to install the link launcher
that's what allows you to use the launch function on the website
idle tusk
I have an account, i don't think that prompted for me though
random owl
If it's not automatically prompting you can find the install.exe in the vrchat install folder

ive downloaded the sdk3 worlds as well

@lethal moss late response to what you said but i do have the latest sdk for it so Idk if that's it but I'll check it when i get home

Thoughts on why some users can smoothly watch a vrc_syncvideostream and for others it stutters? Seems random, not always the same folks

hey everyone, had a basic question about syncing objects in my VRchat world, basically have a complex object that has a button on the object and will enable and disable parts of itself based on pressing the button. In this case its a box that opens its lid and changes the contents inside. Unfortuantely it seems like for other users it's falling out of sync and the lid is showing up at weird angles while it looks fine for me.
Do i need to sync every child object as well or will just syncing the parent work?
by attaching the VRC_objectsync script to them

green lagoon
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/quest-content-optimization have a second copy of the project that set to Android for the bill Target that meets the performance guidelines guidelines
uneven trail
So 2 separate worlds?
random owl
No need to really do two separate projects either, just as long as you upload a world to the same world id using the android and pc build targets it will be quest compatible
Using something like https://github.com/JordoVR/EasyQuestSwitch makes it easy to switch compatibility stuff around when you switch between building for pc and quest

@uneven trail when you upload your would it puts a number to it otomatuickly so all you need to do is swap build
when you go to upload you should see a menu that asks what you want it to be for

@runic epoch Do you mean this whole object ?
It's not great but you can have another trigger on it that have OnInteract with a very low delay that deletes it

Is there any way to get the sdk to not check the name of every gameobject, it's causing unity to hang a lot for me
bitter idol
@knotty bane make sure your vrcworld script is not borked
Messed or missing stuff
Make sure your spawn point is set and everything. Because if you keep getting sent home that's usually an issue with the VRCworld component
Put your main camera in reference camera, then under spawns make sure you have a spawn point
Do you have a spawn point?
@knotty bane
Well damn I'm just tryna help
Sometimes things get messed up and you find out the element is empty
Might also be that dynamic prefabs thing is messing it up idk what that is. If it doesn't work still. You're better off just deleting the entire VRCworld game object because I can't see where it is, and making a new game object on the main root with the scene descripter script on it,( this will be your vrcworld again) and make another empty game object and move it as your desired spawn point. (This object will be your spawn location) Then move the spawn point game object into the element under spawns.
Also low key I think there's a vrc world prefab in the sdk but idk
Yeah

@bitter idol Sorry for asking these kinds of questions but do i NEED to use the version of unity that the VRChat website says?
bitter idol
I don't think you have too? But it's recommended
I can still use the old 2017 unity to upload stuff from my old projects and it tells me I'm not using the correct version but it still works
remote summit
Okay
Cause i was wondering if it would be smart to use a newer version of unity but i am not sure

@remote summit no it would be best to use the one vrchat recommends to minimize glitches and errors
