I imported an asset into my unity, and I see it inside unity just fine but in world its not there? SDK3
I think I had this issue before, something about adding coliders to it?
(Im new to SDK3)
previously on sdk2 you did not have to do this, but now my stuff is invisible pls halp

make sure the colliders aren't intersecting at start or they'll go flying/under the ground

cyan herald
I'm trying to create an SDK3 world. I keep getting this "does not exist in the namespace 'VRCSDK2'." error.
I got rid of every mention of both VRCSDK2 and 3, and reimported the SDK3 World unity package several times, but the error keeps showing.
Wait, I may have fixed it in the Builder settings...
Fingers crossed.
near escarp
there's one way to do it but if specific steps aren't followed then the project breaks, so you'll most likely have to make a new one
cyan herald
Yeah, no. I can't continue.
Is there a way to save the scene and bring it into another project?
dusk sapphire
uh, that seems like a different problem altogether
did you upload this before? if not clear the blueprint in your pipeline manager

I tried to switch my world into android but it always goes on about android player not running and then it doesn't switch. So I'm not sure how to even start making it for quest.
cyan herald
did you upload this before? if not clear the blueprint in your pipeline manager
I'd like to do a test upload on a separate world to look for errors in-game before saving over my public version.
dusk sapphire
i mean, that screen usually shows when you have a blueprint id attached that doesn't belong to you
unless it was already cleared when this happened
cyan herald
Should I just get rid of the Blueprint ID?
dusk sapphire
you want to upload to a new id right? then yeah clear it
you can always find id's for your existing uploads under content manager
dusk sapphire
I tried to switch my world into android but it always goes on about android play...
switch to Android via building settings, not through the sdk
there should also be an option there to download the android sdk which is what you're probably missing
cyan herald
That fixed it. Thanks.
bold ibex
Yeah that's what I'm pressing and yeah probably missing that since I didn't know about it because I didn't see it under downloads on the website so I assumed it was in the other sdk.
dusk sapphire
its an option when you install the unity editor
bold ibex
I'll have a look in a few. I only opened unity for the first time yesterday and made a world hah
First I'm gonna copy the project folder since that's the first step it says on the vrchat page for making cross platform worlds brb
dapper shadow
Where is the UDON_behaviour part gone?
bold ibex
hmmm, the only thing that I need to fix is a bunch of unsupported shaders. Though this time there is no select or auto fix options so I don't even know where they are haha.
Nice. The world is 4mb on my quest and it gets 72fps which is max at the moment. Only problem is in left eye is the world and right eye is some other stuff. Guess I'll try to get rid of that stuff and see.
dusk sapphire
did you swap from the sdk earlier? theres a bug that causes that when you do
use build settings to swap to pc and back to android
bold ibex
yeah I just found that via google I am switching it now
so that's what a lot of worlds I've been to had, a few of them had that issue and people thought their quest were bugged
hopefully it didn't ovewrite my pc world, but I don't think it did
it shows up on the world page as standalonepc and android so I guess that's good

In my heirarchy i only have VRCworld object that sets the spawn point and thumbnail
there isn't a VRCcam object like it says in the documentation
thankyou for your help btw
dapper shadow
when you click build it creates it
woeful carbon
I am building through the SDK3 control panel, have published the world to community labs already, there is no vrccam though
sorry, the "VRC SDK" control panel
thorn latch
Once it gets to that screen with upload description playercount etc, if you switch back to scene from the game tab there should be an object called VRCCam
Thats where the image view comes from
woeful carbon
ah, right, thank you folks, I will try that right now
thorn latch
Just remember to check the upload picture box aswell
dapper shadow
das what I said xD
On this screen, make sure you have upload image ticked also, see the VRCCAM you can move that when you change from game to scene
woeful carbon
yes, thank you both for your help with this, very clear explanations
dapper shadow
Also you can make the camera exactly where you look by pressing CTRL + SHIFT + F

what script you using for the slider?
dapper shadow
There should be a catagory called "udonbehaviour"
desert python
is it custom?
dapper shadow
Nah the standard one you just create under UI >> Slider
desert python
doesnt look like you have a udonbehave on that GO
im like 90% sure you need some kind of slider unity.ui scripting helper for it to register
dapper shadow
Im following a tutorial and the dude has udon behaviour listed here for each time he changes the runtime only function
Would UDON sharp mess with things
I imported that for a object that uses sharp
desert python
send dude, but he probs didnt show himself adding the udon behave
U# good. dont diss the sharp
dapper shadow
desert python
yea, youll need to add the udon behave into “screen” and that “slider” will aslo need a UB with the volume or timeskip controller script added
desert python
remember; all udon ui must have its own UB in its GO in order for it to be utilized by ui

Does anyone know how to immediately fix all 199 compiler errors when importing UdonSharp?

I only got these errors when importing UdonSharp by MerlinVR (not vanilla Udon). There weren't any errors prior, but still. I want to find a way to fix this, because there's Udon prefabs I want to use, and are only compatible with this extension.
desert python
those are some odd errors to have, what version you using?
cyan herald
Unity 2018.4.20
random owl
You didn't import the release but downloaded the source code for it

Use the releases page: https://github.com/MerlinVR/UdonSharp/releases
And make sure you are on the latest version of the sdk
cyan herald
Any sort of reasons why Unity crashes upon uploading an SDK3 world? I've been attempting to upload for the past hour.

is it better to do texturing in Unity? i was told the opposite, that doing all texturing in Blender was the best option
errant beacon
@verbal hare You'd need to unwrap the model, apply materials to the faces you want, and then preferably atlas it
desert python
depends on your preference, thats why i said "imo"
verbal hare
depends on your preference, thats why i said "imo"
i barely have any experience with Blender, but i have experience with Maya and Unreal
hazy pebble
this is a simple case, sometimes textures are more complex, perhaps in more complex cases blender would be the tool to use.
This is how you'd do it in blender: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7M-B6xnaEM
errant beacon
^
unwrapping's hard for me to describe in text lol
verbal hare
i suck at unwrapping
if Unity acts similar to Unreal when applying textures (a simple drag and drop), ill do Unity
errant beacon
basically, you're marking seams to fold a flat material around your model
Once your model is unwrapped, select the faces you want to affect, make a new material, and then click Assign to assign that material to those faces
For optimization, it'd prob be better to apply all the materials to the mesh in Blender and then atlas it, though it'd be simpler to just make a bunch of empty materials on the faces you want, and then just apply the materials in Unity later
verbal hare
this is what my UVs look like
errant beacon
Click into the UV editor on the left, press A to select all, and then go up to the UV dropdown and pack islands
verbal hare
errant beacon
kk!
In the 3D viewport while in Edit mode, select the faces you want to be wooden
verbal hare
its not letting me select the faces...i think im in Vertex Mode
errant beacon
Switch to Face Select here, specifically the button marked in blue
verbal hare
all faces selected
errant beacon
kk
With the faces still selected, go down to the Materials tab, make a new material, and then click the "Assign" button
verbal hare
errant beacon
That'll assign your newly-made material to those faces you have selected - from there you can either apply the textures you want in Blender, or do so in Unity
kk! Click the yellowe dot next to "Base Color" in the material tab, and switch it to an Image Texture
from there, import the texture you want
errant beacon
cool! should be fine o:
If you can't see the material on the faces, switch to either Material Preview or Render in the 3D viewport
verbal hare
perfect. thanks
errant beacon
yw! c:
once your model is finished and all your materials are added on, you can atlas it with CATS to reduce the material count down to one
def a later stage thing though o:
storm badger
I have a problem where I can't change the Interaction Text for any of my avatar pedestals in Unity. When I click the Play button (or try to upload it), it changes the text back to whatever it was before.
Actually, it seems I can change the text if I switch the inspector to Debug mode, but not if it's in Normal mode. I think changing the text outside debug mode was something recently added in the SDK.
verbal hare
@errant beacon so it appears that i have a few extra verticies on one of my walls...do you know how to delete bad verticies?
errant beacon
screenshot? o:
verbal hare
errant beacon
I'm assuming you mean the verts on the wall with the windows?
select two verts you want to merge, and then press M to merge them
alternatively, you could select all the bad verts and delete them, then make faces between the good verts by pressing F
verbal hare
merging worked. thanks
errant beacon
yw! c:
also, some of your UVs look like they're stretched/overlapping in that image o:
verbal hare
havent fixed all the walls yet
errant beacon
kk c:
verbal hare
so i dont think merging is working afterall...they keep stacking on top of one another
and my delete keys dont work when i try to delete the verts that way
errant beacon
Make sure you're merging/deleting them in the 3D viewport specifically? o:
also, you could try using Merge by Distance to fix the stacking issue but that's still odd
errant beacon
ah, is it only affecting your UV map? might want to re-unwrap the model o:
verbal hare
errant beacon
assuming the unwrapping was done in Blender, you could just click UV > Unwrap again
what's the issue there? o:
verbal hare
i need 4 verts, but theres 6
errant beacon
not entirely sure lol, would recommend re-unwrapping imo?
verbal hare
i just unwrapped again
errant beacon
odd o:
Merging/deleting vertices in the 3D editor should affect the UV editor, from what I'm seeing
sorry lol, not super sure what to suggest

I have a problem in Unity 2018.4.20f1, using the latest version of VRChat SDK2. Adding the VRC_Pickup component to a object makes the object really dark. Any ideas why this is happening?

Not much
Let me correct myself, everything dissapear when I look at certain walls.
I was wrong

You could try re-baking occlusion culling to see if that's it? o:
should be under Window > Render > Occlusion Culling
wooden matrix
Does not seem to be involved with my problem, I clicked baked and even closed/reopen the project.
errant beacon
odd o:
Is the map made with scaled Unity cubes, or is it it's own mesh made in Blender/maya/etc?
scaled cubes shouldn't be an issue as far as I know, but that might be a cause
dusk sapphire
does it happen when you clear the occlusion bake data?
theres an issue with unity occlusion culling in perfectly sealed rooms where it'll sometimes think the inside of the room is a solid object and hence cull things if you're inside incorrectly
wooden matrix
Could materials fix that ?
It did not fix it... not that big of a surprise.

This is an older Prefab i'm trying to get to work in my world, although all the necessary scripts appear to be missing. i'm assuming that this could function in a Sdk2 world, but I'm using Sdk3. My question is... Is there any way to add the scripts to have this thing function properly in a Sdk3 world? Stumped.

dusk sapphire
it's not too bad, the prefab is mainly using the triggers for activating the constant force unity component which is what causes that flight prefab to move
and steering is done with configurable joints connecting the handle to the seat, which should work the same in sdk2 and 3
oh, spawning them might be an issue, as udon doesn't deal well with spawning prefabs with udon behaviors, you'd have to use an object pool.

Im having issues with a new project, whenever i click the "Build & Test" button, it takes me to a black screen before defaulting to the homeworld. I know this is a common problem so I tried some of the previous solutions. Stuff I already tried:
-Installed Unity 2018.4.20f1, VRchatSDK and VRWorldToolkit today
-VRC Toolkit World Debugger has 0 errors and 0 warnings, only some tips about lights
-Unity Console no errors or warnings, only the unity config fetch
-VRchat Client Path is correct
-Spawn is set
-Reference Camera is set to the Main Camera
-There are only 5 objects in the scene: Empty Object(the SceneDescriptor), Main Camera, Directional Light, Empty Object (set as the spawn), a Cube (just a platform to stand on)
-these objects are above the Respawn Height
Any help would be appreciated.

Could take a look at the vrchat logs to see if there is any error and or cause for not loading into the test build
my parser can make reading it a bit easier if you prefer https://nyanpa.su/vrchatlog/

iirc 1 added a bunch of checks for spawn points being on valid ground

this is the cube

ok so most likely another error then, check out temporal's link
dusk sapphire
is vrchat home the only instance listed?
hasty crest
yes
Ok so i imported VRchat to my boyfriends computer and it works no issue over there
dusk sapphire
maybe manually check the logs to see if it actually tried to load your test build, as i may not correctly account for situations like this
oh, so its not an issue with the map then
the builds are stored in the %TEMP% folder iirc, maybe an issue with the vrchat client trying to read from it?
hasty crest
i think its just a hardware issue, my pc is way older than his. oh well
Fixed it:
Reinstalled a second instance of VRchat on a different drive and it worked. Originally it was on a different drive (where I set steam to install games) so i installed it to my base C drive and set the path to that install. Pressed Build & Test and it worked. yay.

So let me know if I have this straight... SDK3 hasn't had a direct update since 2019. I'd assume they'd prefer if we all use SDK3 now, no? Yet trying to follow their tutorials, I am running into "For SDK2 only" such as Home kit. Is there an updated Home Kit that is compatible with SDK3? Or am I left to figure some things out on my own if I want to start fresh with SDK3 being new to building for VRChat?
desert python
@wintry karma sdk 3 is technically "not finished"
so making a tutorial for stuff like that could become pointless if a drastic update/change occurs
wintry karma
Sure, but the last update I see to SDK3 was two years ago now. Unless I'm looking in the wrong place?
desert python
wdym son?
wintry karma
Your point seems to be that SDK3 is not finished, and implies it is constantly changing. I see no changes to SDK3 here. Sure the client has seen updates, but that is the client. And I'm not your son, just because I'm new here, doesn't mean I'm young
wintry karma
The SDK console's last update message was in 2019
desert python
define "SDK console"
wintry karma
Sorry, Control Panel
desert python
https://vrchat.com/home/download this is where you should get the latest sdk
wintry karma
Let me be far more direct than questioning why tutorials haven't been updated. Are there community based resources for getting started with SDK3 or am I to figure out the differences in the tutorial on my own?
desert python
they are usually not updated or just incorrect
sdk 2 and 3 are vastly seperate on how the set up works. however there are prefabs like video players and toggles on how to do things. you can also looking up udon tutorials as well
wintry karma
And to answer your earlier question, I am starting with SDK3 for exactly the reason you just stated. There is no direct migration path for worlds to be updated from SDK2 to SDK3, so I don't see a point in starting with SDK2. Further, I have decades of experience with C-like scripting and programming language, so I figure Udon will be a quick pickup. But none of the Udon tutorials I've scanned through have basic scene and world setup. Though I am pretty sure while waiting for my question to be answered, I've figured that out based on existing documentation.
random owl
Basic scene setup is basically the same in both SDKs you just pop out the VRCWorld prefab from inside the sdk in your scene and you are pretty much done
wintry karma
Yup, I've done that. After the docs had me create a SceneDescriptor from scratch... then told me to add the VRCWorld Prefab. Became clear the former was unnecessary when I got to the Build tab
random owl
If this was where you tripped at yeah you aren't the first to do that there
desert python
i did the same thing lol
wintry karma
Yup, the perils of trying to read while my dog is demanding my attention

Also import my world tools checking the world debugger from the top bar will help to figure out what is going wrong in situations

random owl
https://github.com/MerlinVR/UdonSharp
I assume you found this as well since you said you had C-like experience?

Hadn't gotten that far. To be clear, my C# experience is limited compared to C, C++, and C-like scripting like NWScript.
Mostly a matter of lack of use. But I'm a quick learner

You need to map out the materials in blender

Would anyone possibly know why my bushes might not be showing in the reflection of the mirror?
(2nd image is the reflection)
desert python
the bushes probs on a different layer that the mirror isnt set to cull on
random owl
Or alternatively the bushes are not double sided and face the players view causing them to disappear when not looking directly at them
ivory storm
Im not sure how to check if they are on a different layer :0
but i think it might be that second one but im not sure how i'll fix that either
random owl
Both of those are pretty much guesses since you didn't really provide much information on how those bushes are made
ivory storm
Tbh im not sure either how the bush is made
Well i do but i dont know what it would be called
Sorry i don't know much about unity im still very new
random owl
And what layers do you have on the mirror right now?
ivory storm
I have player, mirror reflection, and default ticked
random owl
Maybe enable environment as well though I can't remember what terrain stuff defaults to
ivory storm
Heck didn't work, i tried just ticking every box to show everything but that still wont show the bushes
cursed bushes
random owl
Can you show that material in the use for the bushes?
If it's not the layer it's most likely more what I said
ivory storm
yeah i was thinking it might be that too
it came with the assets so they are kinda simple and i don't see many options
random owl
Looking at the shader source it does seem that what I said is what is happening
You would need to manually edit the shader to set the cull off
It's technically easy
But I don't really touch shaders so I can't really say for sure where you need to add the Cull Off

Turns out my bushes were not appearing because the default unity leaves shader had culling to back :^)
Just incase anyone has this issue again with their leaves not appearing in their mirror because of the default unity shader https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive
Download 2018.4.20 built in shaders, go to nature>treecreator>treecreatorleaves.shader
move that shader into your unity package.
and add cull off to both passes in the code for the shader
can also help to change the name in the code so you can find it in your shaders tab

does anyone know why the lights you place in unity would cause a models, shaders to start flickering / mess up?
ivory storm

does anyone know why the lights you place in unity would cause a models, shaders...
That depends a bit on what kind of flickering it is
median cradle
it's like
it looks like tiles on the model flickering on and off
when running past certain light sources when testing it'll come and go next to the light from the ceiling, but have had no luck in finding the problem
random owl
If it's a real time light it could just be flickering because of the limit on pixel lights in unity
random owl
You have multiple directional lights?
median cradle
yeah 👉 👈
but it's like
i made a minuture building

You should look for shader that does anti-tiling, it'd help a lot with the look of your walls

Anyone know any helpful tips for porting it all to unity without rebuilding materials and textures?

You can export with textures/materials by using batch mode in the export fbx settings iirc

np! I got an issue with the stream video. I got a VRC Unity Video player in my scene and when I make a Build to test my world I can play youtube video but not my youtube live stream and no youtube live too, I also cannot launch content from twitch. Do you know what this is due to?
dusk sapphire
you have to use the av pro video player for live streams
low lake
Thx!
you add in on top of the VRV UNity Video Player or you remplace it ? AV pro video player don't seems to have render Mode, target texture , ect
dusk sapphire
are you on sdk2 or 3?
low lake
On the 3, okay I put a AV pro video player and a AV pro video screen on an element to get the render of the video I need to test it out in a build
but got multiple mesh where I need to diffuse the video, is that possible to pass the AV pro video player in a render texture or I need tu put an AV prov video screen on each mesh ?
dusk sapphire
you just use the VRCAV Pro Video Screen component on each screen mesh
that component just needs a reference to your av pro video player
the sdk has a example player set up
though you might also want to look at some other prefabs people in the community have made
https://github.com/MerlinVR/USharpVideo merlin's u# video player for example, requires USharp though
low lake
thx this can be usefull

For some odd reason my vrchat world will not update to the lastest map build, keeps updating to an older one and i am getting fustrated
The Unity editor i am using is Unity 2018.4.20f1 Personal - [PREVIEW PACKAGES IN USE] - SampleScene.unity - ObiJ3ffs Chillpad
This is my current world looks like but when you load into it its not this update is an older one
dusk sapphire
do you have any errors in your console?
lime pasture
No errors
dusk sapphire
they can cause the build to fail and it just ends up uploading the old version
lime pasture
how would i see if there is an error?
lime pasture
Trigger on VRCWorld was not initialized in time!

dusk sapphire
did you run the debugger in the vrworldtoolkit?
lime pasture
im not sure how it works lol if you could walk me through it i would learn it better
dusk sapphire
theres really not much to run through
install the package, then click open world debugger under vrworld toolkit menu
dusk sapphire
then click open world debugger under vrworld toolkit menu
the screenshot in the page I linked shows it too

dusk sapphire
your screenshot is too small for me to ready any of the text

sorry

but it looks like the first 2 issues under general would be what you want to look at

I can not find the run debugger option

sdk2 is fine for that

alright

what nodes do i add in the udon graph? (idk how to use the graph)

you dont need a graph for sync'd pick ups
just an empty behavior with synchronize position checked

i am still seeing a black avatar in the mirror, and the world debugger is giving this message:
i do have multiple light probes tho

the light probes don't do anything if you didnt actually bake your lights

how do i bake the lights?
dusk sapphire
check pins in #world-lighting

ah, i'll go take a look

I just updated to the newest World SDK3 and it managed to overwrite my scene somehow with the default Udon example scene. I am not fucking kidding. The entire thing is gone.
What the fuck. It really is fucking gone.
random owl
How? Were you working on your world in the default scene or something?
deft sluice
My best guess: I copied and renamed the example scene. However, I am guessing it kept the same GUID in the asset manifest on disk. So... Technically Unity's fault, I guess.

That's possible as when I updated to SDK3 for my avatar, it reset my FX Animator despite it having a different name because it was a duplicate of the example animator
deft sluice
I just remade the important parts, but there is a bunch of coding stuff I have to relink/fix now.
cunning belfry
What do you guys set your player audio settings as? what's the optimal settings for it
idle shell
guys umm so i was making a world and it started to have some issues. i was using SDK3 worlds and when i fixed most of the stuff and tried to upload. there where some settings i never got. i did reimport the SDK3 but nothing changed. I also cant press upload for it for some reason
I only have 2 errors. 1 saying about objects not being cleaned up and this

When you select it does the panel at the bottom of the console show more info?
random owl
I need to check some more things then
I think I have a possible theory on what happened though
Find a prefab named VRCSDKWorld and show a screenshot of how it looks in the inspector
idle shell
The prefab in my Project or Hierarchy?
random owl
Assets
idle shell
random owl
And that is the problem right there 🤔
It lost all the references for some reason
Get the references in that prefab back and the problem will be fixed
I don't see why reimporting the SDK wouldn't fix it
idle shell
well i have done that once before
random owl
Yeah 🤷
Could just replace the prefab from a working project using file explorer while the project is closed which should fix it
idle shell
yeah i will try that
random owl
Or alternatively just delete the prefab and reimport sdk over
As long as the references are back the problem is fixed
idle shell
Thanks man :D

(Now that I am done recreating my world.) Is there a known issue with videos from a URL with auto-play turned on that actually automatically playing on world load? Granted, I could be doing this wrong. It works fine in Unity's run mode.
Ah, I found it under rate limiting. I need to put in a work around for that then. https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/video-players
desert python
@deft sluice wait what you tryin to do rn?
deft sluice
Six or so video players at the same time.
desert python
6 different videos or 6 screens of the same video?
deft sluice
Six different videos. I am pulling in clips from http://localhost/ as background for a video project.
desert python
sdk 2 or 3? cus its possible to have multiple streams in sdk3 but idk about sdk2
deft sluice
SDK3. I am putting USharpVideo now and going to modify the player script to gracefully handle loading a list across multiple screens.
desert python
ok, and yea: a rate limit will occur if 6 videos fire at once, youll want to add a timer after the instance is formed to delay the auto player function event

The report count starts at 1

That explains a lot.
Question:
With 30h of vrchat, if I upgrade to vrchat+, does it guarantee that I can enter into community labs to make my world public? (9$ mo right now is a bit steep for my unemployed ass)
(It's an engineering experimental hub to do workshops and talks)
random owl
It should can't guarantee it would because we don't really know the full details on the systems
crude nacelle
also i can't find Skybox anywhere in Unity how do i do that step the video i am watching didn't explain that?
random owl
Oh wait depending on what rank are you now?
knotty plaza
Hmm...well, I'll have to risk it. (i know 30h is not a lot)

how to fix this
random owl
Well you can't remove the event handler since the player mods depend on it but do delete the stuff in it since it should not be used anymore
Very old legacy stuff

ok thanks
warm vortex
How do I get the VRC_SyncVideoPlayer to allow players to input custom URL?
crude nacelle
Make six Textures that correspond to each of the six sides of the skybox, and put them into your Project’s Assets
folder. I don't know how to do this step?
warm vortex
I want players to load their own URL into the player. How do I do this?

anyone know if your world's community lab traffic is affected negatively by marking it nsfw, gore, etc on the upload prompt?
desert python
in practice, you shouldnt want to tag it as any of those
random owl
The tags are a legacy thing usually if you see them it means you are on some ancient version of the sdk or you have a problem in your project
random owl
Did you update udon sharp as well?
pure kraken
oh, no I didn't.
random owl
Make sure to read the update instructions

works now, ty. I'm in need of other help though, I have been trying to find a tutorial for fading audio, I'm in need of a live stream player and I need to figure out how cameras work so I can send their feed to a display
random owl
#udon-general <- for any udon specific questions
For cameras though you just need to create a render texture and make the camera output to it
And then put the render texture on whatever material you want
pure kraken
oh, what part is udon specific? I didn't know
random owl
Mainly the video player part
pure kraken
ah okay. and the fading audio?
random owl
If you are just asking about audio source setup then it would be fine here
I'm not really a sound guy though so I'm not the best person to answer
pure kraken
okay, thank you ❤️
green crypt
Just imported a house I was working on and when I put it into Unity and put the material on it, the texture came out super low quality like this. Anyone know a fix?
dusk sapphire
on the texture import settings you can change the resolution, by default unity will import at 2k resolution
green crypt
Oh yeah. Should've spotted that one haha. Thanks!
dusk sapphire
ah okay. and the fading audio?
if its just an audio source that fades out over distance, you just need to adjust the curves on the audio source component. it's also represented by the 2 spheres that show up in your scene when you click the audio source. You can also do it through the vrc_spatial audio source component.
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrc_spatialaudiosource
pure kraken
I'm totally unsure about this, but what about player audio? I'm not sure what the default is, but I don't want people to hear each other from across the map, they should be relatively close to each other @dusk sapphire
dusk sapphire
oh that's what you meant
