Hello friends, is it possible to test worlds locally on a Quest 2 after building in Unity? (with a link cable, or with Virtual Desktop) Thanks!

desert python
#

on android build. no (unless you use the emulator), you can build and test in PC build

robust hill
#

Ok. Yea I have done that on my PC with the desktop client. So, I would need to publish the world to test on the headset?

desert python
#

yes

cerulean charm
#

does ping still apply on 2 local clients?

#

either way i still need advice on how to mitigate it because leading your shots by 15 feet and hoping for the best isn't fun.

near escarp
#

Ah if it's local then i'm not sure, but that's still replicating live behavior, so testing that way makes sense still ?

Anyone ever came across an object that has a VRC Pickup script and the moment you pick it up, it literally stretches like cheese on a pizza?

Edit: When you do orient it back up vertically it'll return to its defined scale, but when it lays flat, it will result in what you see in the second shot.

desert python
#

ive seen it before, i think if an object has an armature or something weird, itll start "stretchifying" itself

civic ibex
#

I'll have to check and see if there is anything related to that. I rebuilt the object itself. It's just a simple Cube mesh /w Renderer that has a RigidBody, Box Collider, and VRC Pickup components. I am hunting down through documentation too.

#

I just spend a long time building a world just to find out I cant upload it because I havn't played for long enough

#

WHat do I do

civic ibex
#

My best recommendation is to get out to make friends and spend time. Hop some worlds.

bold ibex
#

Yeah thats not gonna work

#

I need it uploaded by tonight

#

It is for school

civic ibex
#

I don't know their algorithm to promote, but I was able to progress quickly after doing those few things.

#

If you want me to upload it for you, I can do so. Just specify what you want as the title, description and your name will be associated with it if that will work with you.

bold ibex
#

Is there a way to play it without publishing?

civic ibex
#

Yes. DM me and I can do a screenshare to demonstrate.

bold ibex
#

aight

civic ibex
#

Also can run it in the editor with Cyanemu.

Edit: Finished the call, goodluck Rav! So if you have SDK2, you can't really test offline within VRChat to use VRC's scripts and networking. But if you use CyanEmu, you can utilize VRC scripts by emulating VRChat's Client in the editor. If none of that is needed, just hit play on the editor and have fun with your map.

@stray sand hey, quick question. what does your screen overlay shader do?

@civic ibex make sure the parents to the object have 1,1,1 scaling or it will distort like that

#

I have some movingheads with a lightbeam model and a spotlight, is there any way i can make those two object change color from an AVPRO videoscreen?

grand remnant
#

simple question : is there a layer for colliders to block players but not pickups ? am I allowed to add a layer to the project physics ?

bold ibex
#

I Previewed it using the vrchat sdk thingy

#

It will work until I have enough rep to upload

Hi all, question about approval. How long did it take to get approved to post a world?

civic ibex
languid igloo
#

Thank you for the response. We're a small studio doing an exhibition in LA soon and wanted to see about putting our Unity VR scene online, and VRChat has a great community. Hopefully soon we'll be able to share what we're doing! (This is a render of the scene we're adapting :))

My animation is showing when I test in unity but when I test and build it vrc it doesnt play, why does this happen?

mystic leaf
#

how do I make it so I can have a black and white overlay on a material and the material will only show on the white parts of that overlay? Like as a color/texture overlay

grand remnant
#

like an alpha channel ?

mystic leaf
#

uhhhh

mystic leaf
# grand remnant like an alpha channel ?

So I have this RealtimeEmissionGamma wich displays a video, but I only want the video to be displayed on the white parts of the texture and be transparant on the black parts

unknown.png
grand remnant
#

sounds like you need a specific shader, add a new texture source and do some sort of cutout with that. Sorry I dont know much about shaders, but I suppose it shouldnt be too hard to make or to get help for that

does anyone know why the vrcsdk3 control panel wont show up in my project? I've deleted the folder and installed a fresh new version of it and it still is bugged

unknown.png
near escarp
#

check your console

#

most likely thry editor errors

long token
near escarp
#

Do you have latest versions of the vrc sdk and udon sharp ?

#

with SDK3 you shouldn't have to delete anything

long token
#

should i try to delete udon sharp and reimport it?

near escarp
#

if it's the latest version yes

woeful tide
#

How do you make an particle system that collide with players that can do damage. For example a Gun firing a particle system that can kill an player

long token
#

i tried deleting everything and re-importing it again and nothin changed

unknown.png
#

it keeps giving me these udon errors and idk why

near escarp
#

You're sure you have the latest U# version right ?

#

You can ask directly in merlin's server as well

random owl
#

Oh wait they do nvm

#

But those errors don't seem to be from u#

#

Might want to press clear and see if any dissappear

near escarp
#

Oh, then i missread three times

random owl
#

Or is that all of the errors?

near escarp
#

they have clear on play so i assume those stay

random owl
#

Would most likely need to know if those are all the errors they have to be able to say anything

red urchin
#

i am still getting this on my world upload

desert python
#

@red urchin if its a private world, you could try changing the blueprint ID (sorry if im repeating anyone)

red urchin
#

yeah i've been told this before, i dont wish to change the id since its a public and quite a few people use it already

#

otherwise i wouldnt mind just switching it

dusk sapphire
#

you need to send in a ticket to support to have it addressed

near escarp
#

One second, i'll try to fix that manually

dusk sapphire
#

or that ^

near escarp
#

paste the ID here pls

#

@red urchin

red urchin
#

Give me just a moment

pallid dove
#

why like this

#

i have bakey

red urchin
#

wait is it safe to paste the world id in a public place like this rubick?

pallid dove
#

and just uv don't work

near escarp
#

Well, it's in your screenshot so

#

paste and delete it in 5 seconds

red urchin
#

id go poof

near escarp
#

ty

red urchin
#

yisyis

pallid dove
#

so what do i ot fix

near escarp
#

try uploading again

red urchin
#

alright

near escarp
red urchin
#

it looks lke their terrain isnt baking or something

near escarp
#

80% of the window is cut out so i can't make any good guesses

red urchin
#

my world is compiling now, uploading in just a sec

pallid dove
#

every bight white

#

how do i fix this

near escarp
#

Which shader are you using, what are your light settings

red urchin
#

@near escarp thank you so much, i'm not sure what you did differently that the other two in emails didnt but it works now XD

pallid dove
red urchin
#

bigge thanks

pallid dove
#

i don't what making it white

near escarp
#

Can you show the light you're using and the materials on your objects ?

pallid dove
#

the uv adjustmets don't work i get errors

near escarp
#

Make sure they have generate lightmaps enabled

pallid dove
#

where

#

is at

#

@near escarp here the materials

near escarp
#

which ones are emissive ? And what other lights do you have aside from the skybox ?

pallid dove
#

here the light

#

and they are all baked

near escarp
#

yeah but the lights settings are important because something is clearly a bit too bright

#

Can you check the bakery lightmaps folder

pallid dove
#

ok

#

where do i go to see

#

in the folder

flint silo
#

basic question. I've got a reference image setup, how do i prevent that plane from being interacted with ? I know there's a way to lock it, but i don't know how to do it

pallid dove
#

where in bakey do i go like in folder

dusk sapphire
flint silo
flint silo
dusk sapphire
#

I'm not sure what you mean by locking it, as if its just a regular plane you put into the world, users wont be able to interact with it unless you do something like make it a pick up

#

if you dont want users to collide with it, make sure it doesnt have a collider component

flint silo
dusk sapphire
#

you could set the object to a layer, and in the layers drop down on the top right disable its visibility in the scene view

#

wait nvm you cant see it then

flint silo
#

i don't want to not see it, i don't want it be be interacted with, i saw someone lock it in a video but they didn't say what they were actually doing

dusk sapphire
#

the same drop down has a lock button

#

thats probably what you want

flint silo
#

and where is this drop down at ?

dusk sapphire
#

top right corner of your editor

pallid dove
#

@near escarp where i go in the the bakey folder fix the whits

flint silo
pallid dove
near escarp
#

bakery lightmaps

dusk sapphire
#

yea, you can still select it in hierarchy, but you cant from the scene view

flint silo
dusk sapphire
#

you can change the layers objects are on on the top right of the inspector window when you have them selected

dusk sapphire
red urchin
#

@near escarp uhh so sorry but bad news xD even though the whole upload process in unity went well, the world in game is still as it was before

near escarp
#

Might be a case of having to reupload on a new ID in that case

dusk sapphire
#

check if your last build was actually successful? it might have uploaded an older build

pallid dove
dusk sapphire
# pallid dove

the settings on your lights, as in those point lights you have above your scene

pallid dove
#

ok

dusk sapphire
#

0.86GB worth of lightmaps?

pallid dove
red urchin
#

heck

dusk sapphire
#

it would be helpful if you selected just one so we could see what intensity its at but

#

the range looks too short to even hit the ground?

#

also are you using bakery or unity's progressive?

#

you mentioned bakery earlier but i dont see any bakery lights

waxen cove
pallid dove
#

ok

pallid dove
#

@dusk sapphire so you what make other gif or can see all light intensity

dusk sapphire
#

are you using unity's progressive lightmapper or bakery?

pallid dove
dusk sapphire
#

You do not have any bakery light components which is needed to bake lights with bakery

#

Also check to make sure you have generate lightmap uv's checked for your imported meshes

#

make sure they are marked as lightmap static in the editor

#

I can't see why it would have made your meshes all white, so i'd also check your meshes to see if they have the correct materials assigned.

hi. i am trying to figer out how to fix the fisheye lense thing , looking on one eye everthing worps

red urchin
#

@upbeat flax what objects is it happening on and what shader are they using?

#

that sounds like its not a VR ready shader

#

i remember i had something similar on a brick wall i picked up from the asset store long ago, i believe the issue was it was using a depreciated shader or something for height maps

upbeat flax
#

i tried changing the lighting like i seen some sugest and the sky box but i dont know, i had this problem befor and cant remmber how i fixed it

#

also sorry for bad grammer/spelling it is late and i am tired

dusk sapphire
#

is this a PC or quest world?

upbeat flax
#

quest

#

Ooh dame i just relized right eye not left

#

doubt that matters

red urchin
#

huh and this is your world?

#

or is this an issue you're having everywhere?

upbeat flax
#

my world

red urchin
#

you should send some screenshots of the world in unity with some shader settings and lighting settings so someone who knows what they're talking about that isnt me can help XD

upbeat flax
#

ok hold on one moment

dusk sapphire
#

did you switch to android platform using the sdk?

upbeat flax
#

what shader do i need to screnshot? sorry kinda unsure of things this is a screnshot

unknown.png
dusk sapphire
#

switch back to pc and then back to android using the build settings in unity

#

its a common sdk bug

upbeat flax
#

Oooh thanks i will try that

dusk sapphire
upbeat flax

'That fixed it!

#

what is the difference between vrchat SDK2 and SDK3 for worlds

#

should I just use the sdk2

Hi
I've a problem with an asset that is visible in Unity but not in my world. Those blades of grass have nothing special just cutout shader it's just an albedo with an alpha-png.

says I have errors in scripts

#

Error building Player because scripts have compile errors in the editor

#

how do I make it so I can have a black and white overlay on a material and the material will only show on the white parts of that overlay? Like as a color/texture overlay

tropic crater
#

Hey, what's the simplest way to reset my room? I have bunch of pickupables that users can i.e throw out of the window or well.. just make a mess. How can I bring everything back to its original place?

dusk sapphire
dusk sapphire
mystic leaf
#

uhhhhh I dont really know much about shaders so how would I do this?

mystic leaf
dusk sapphire
#

you should probably uv map your screen so the part that displays the video is its own material

tropic crater
dusk sapphire
#

on udon you're going to have to make your own udon behaviors to have them respawn

#

on each object, on start you want to save its position, then a custom event that teleports them back to the saved position, and call that custom even from a button/panel etc

#

if you're not clear on the specifics you can probably get better help in #udon-general

mystic leaf
dusk sapphire
#

transparency has nothing to do with uv maps, and is a shader setting

#

but video screen footage as a light beam?

mystic leaf
#

so basically I have this massive videoscreen and I have some lamps with animations and I want the cone shaped beam mesh the display the color of the screen

thick gale
#

Im so lost..no VRC spatial audio component ..need output audio mixer group?

#

N it wont autofix

i'm not sure how you built your project so it's hard to say

if you import assets and the udon sdk, it shouldn't cause errors

@arctic gale there is a checkmark you can put to sync position on the udon behavior component.

oh im on 2.0 atm

dusk sapphire

put vrc_object sync on the pick ups

arctic gale

gotcha

#

thank you!

dusk flax
#

hey, is there a max filesize for worlds?
If not, is it allowed to upload a "high quality" version and a compressed version of the same map?

#

ended up with a 1GB world for audiophiles, or 200MB with audio compressed to 256kbps^^

dusk sapphire
#

I believe you're highly discouraged from making maps that exceed 200-300mb

#

but map file size issues aside

#

if a lot of it is audio assets, this article may be of interest to you

dusk flax
#

this is really interesting, thanks

civic estuary
#

Cool blog. Never knew that. Ill have to check my maps once i get home.

#

I think Quest only has a hard limit on file size?

dusk flax
#

yeah quest is 20mb

dusk sapphire
#

quest is 50mb

dusk flax
#

oh?

dusk sapphire
#

10mb for avatars, 50mb for worlds

dusk flax
#

ah ok, uploadvr said 20, but vrchat docs say 50, guess the 50 is right then^^

unknown.png
dusk sapphire
#

PC doesn't really have a limit but I believe the API will reject upload attempts exceeding 2gb? but you really should avoid going more than 500mb

dusk flax
#

...and i missed the recommended

#

i have the stupid

civic estuary
#

Unless a world look really good i usually avoid 3 digits worlds and i know others also have their own limits.

#

So its a good thing keeping it low.

#

I wonder what kind of compression is used on that beatsaber world last i check wasnt too bad considering the amount of music it had.

dusk sapphire
#

personally I wouldnt visit maps that exceed 500mb myself, and generally, I would only go to maps thats 200-300mb+ if its specifically some sort of exhibition world like virtual market or avatar museum

#

or some sort of game/adventure experience

civic estuary
#

The last big vket want too bad in size from what i remember. The one before the music vket.

dusk flax
#

my goal was to explore the upper limit of a max quality MIDI sampler, using a complete 11 scale, quadra layered layout with multiple velocity samples, 512kbps everything, and working pedals and common knobs, more of a "this is the maximum possible sampler" world than an actual "commonly playable" one^^

civic estuary
#

Yea. I can see how this would boost your file size considerably.

dusk flax
#

the world itself is actually teeny tiny in file size, just a tiny world made from triangle shards and the piano in the same style, sounds are 99.99% of this map^^

unknown.png
civic estuary
#

At least theres that. High quality textures can make that file size go up quick.

dusk flax
#

maybe i can limit myself to 2 sound layers and blend between them instead of switching, that's bring it down to 500 MB, but I'd have to set up... 256 audio sources........

#

or I'll just clamp it to common grand piano size and only do 6/7 octaves :/

dusk sapphire
#

uuh, can you even have 256 audio sources?

#

there is a hard limit to how many active audio sources you can have at any one time

#

its probably better to have a few audio sources, and play different audio tracks through them

dusk flax
#

well...... yes, but no. For quest, you shouldn't go above 3 audio sources total.
For PC however, there's no total limit. But you can only have like 15-20 active without audio glitching. I'll treat the sources as my sampler voices, and only activate the playing ones. playing multiple notes on one audio source would cause a lot of problems in this case, especially since I'm trying to set it up spacially if that's the correct word.

short gulch
#

Not gonna lie, that looks pretty sick

dusk sapphire
#

by default unity caps max active audio sources at 32

dusk flax
#

Though I think I'll go for a lower quality world first, only 7 octaves, 10 voices, 2 velocity layers and only one pedal. This is my first VRChat world after all, can still improve it later I suppose

dusk sapphire
#

i'm not sure whats the cap set for vrchat

#

so yes, there is a hard limit

dusk flax
#

again, active audio sources

dusk sapphire
#

I believe its possible to play multiple audio clips through a single audio source simultaneously, but you'll have to check if PlayOneShot() is exposed in Udon

dusk flax
#

it is

#

but then you can't edit the mix without affecting already playing sounds, breaking the pedal functionality

dusk sapphire
#

ah, fair

Do you guys think that there's a particular art style that looks best in VRChat worlds? A friend and I were talking about how 'realistic' worlds often don't look as good as worlds using stylized assets. 🌞 = Realistic is better / 🌛 = Stylized is better / 🌓 Both are equally attractive

# wraith field Do you guys think that there's a particular art style that looks best in VRChat ...

I would say it depends on what you want to go for and what kind of setting you are aiming for.
More serious settings often do better with realistic, while stylized often works best for playful setting. (But keep in mind there can also be exceptions to this where the opposite is true).
More important is that you stick with the art style you chose otherwise the will "fight" each other.
(Here again there can be exceptions in intentional breaks in your art style. But this is usually pretty difficult to pull off so best used with a lot of thought and planning)
So overall they can both be used to great effect and can both look really good.

#

But in the context of VRC i would say it usually is easier to do stylized than realistic, since you can get away with a lower detail density.

wraith field
west blade
#

It is true that most avatars would fit better in some stylized worlds, but generally avatars look out of place in most worlds anyways since they still have a different art styles than the world or other avatars (even if both is stylized). So i would not use that as an reason to use a specific art style.

wraith field
burnt sphinx
#

Guess I'm injecting my own esthetic here but, I prefer the worlds that don't spend too much time trying to be something else (or e.g. represent something real). I guess if you're trying to make a VR car look and act like a real car, for example, I suppose that a stylized look could be lower poly and thus have better performance. In that respect, because of performance, stylized looks can be made to perform better for more people.
But in the end, I tend to gravitate toward the art that exists for its own sake and not its ability to emulate life, and those types of worlds, though not really "stylized" can be made to to show unique beauty in a performant way.

Hello everyone, I need some help with constraints. The big cube has a Loot At Constraint component on it and is supposed to look at the small cube. The small cube has a VRC_Pickup component on it.

Constraints are not whitelisted in sdk2 worlds...

I can think of two ideas.

  1. import standard assets and use the LookatTarget script.
  2. learn the ways of Ui button magic and call transform.lookat every frame.

To go into more detail, if I had a gun and want to create a front grip.. then I assume importing standard assets is the way to go, right?

As in two handed pickup?

mossy fog

indeed

Either option would work. Standard assets is written for you and would be less learning. Ui buttons are more work, but provide you with more power once you learn them.
So easy option is standard assets.

#

on the ui canvas, you can add your own box collider component to define the area for raycast detection for your ui

#

setting it as isTrigger also means the ui doesnt collide with players, where as the default behavior if you didnt override with your own collider does

bold ibex
#

Alright?

dusk sapphire
#

depending on how you set it up, the automatically generated collider from vrc_ui shape might not match your ui, which can also cause the issues you have

#

though that's less common that just the ui being inside another collider

#

so if you find that theres no colliders blocking your panel, this is another thing you can try

cerulean charm
#

yup

dusk sapphire
#

Light probes are only for baked lights, if you're using them you need to actually bake your lights. Also whenever you add/remove/change a light with baked lighting, it needs to be rebaked.

#

if those are real time lights, then you need to uncheck disable pixel lights on the mirror settings to have real time lights show up in the mirror

#

of course, baked lights is always preferred

#

If you're not sure how to bake lights, refer to the guide in the pins in #world-lighting

it might be easier if you set up a fresh 2018.4.20f1 project

then export the world from the 5.6.3p1 project as a unitypackage

and import it into the new project

but when exporting, exclude things like the old vrcsdk

the actual world mesh and stuff should be fine, parent it all to a gameobject, bring it into your assets folder as a prefab, export as a unity asset.

Is this a empty project?

grand remnant
#

Is there a way to make pickup easier to grab without changing their actual collision size ?

desert python
#

you could make the grab distence farther

grand remnant
#

the distance is not a problem, its the size. since those are small object, you have to aim precisely to grab them

#

and the "hand ray" isnt really intuitive to me

desert python

i think you could parent it to a bigger sphere or box collider that is trigger only possibly?

Hey, so I've seen quite a few Half-Life: Alyx maps having been ported into VR Chat. I find it easier to build in Source 2 Hammer than something like Maya or Blender, does anyone know how they managed to export the worlds with all of their materials properly? Exporting as FBX is possible, but the materials aren't picked up.

errant beacon
#

As for porting existing HL:A maps, that'd be rule 9 - maps you made should be fine though, as long as you aren't exporting props/materials/etc not made or owned by you
You should just be able to take the image files for the materials and bring those directly into Unity, and make a new material out of 'em there o:

grand remnant
hushed mural
errant beacon
#

Probably, unless there's a way to export applied materials in HL:A's hammer (which I don't think there is in my experience, but could def be wrong on that?)

#

I know more about Source 1 than 2 lmao, S2's dark magic

hushed mural
#

Mm, maybe I should hunt down the people who ported those maps over and ask them how they did it. Unless they also had to go through surface-by-surface re-applying all the materials.

#

And Source 2 ain't too hard to learn! I moved over from Source, and a lot of it is the same, just with added improvements and having to adjust to a mesh-based engine mindset.

errant beacon
#

ik! Not having everything being sealed really screws with me lmao, I have no idea how they're doing optimization

#

The new navmesh system and actually being able to import custom models sensibly is nice though lmao, among other things

hushed mural
#

Yep, it's soooo much better. But I could gush about Source 2 all day, sadly this isn't the channel for it 😛

errant beacon
#

lmao I could gush about Source 1 all day too, def need to get into S2 though
and yus, best of luck on your project though! o:

So I'm having a problem

#

I'm trying to make a tree, made one in blender.

#

Trying to import it into unity

#

The leaves were made in blender using the image to plane add-on

#

sooo this is my problem

#

it also doesn't seem to be applying my uv wrapped texture onto the trunk

near escarp
#

Which shader are you using ?

karmic spade
#

I can drag the texture onto the tree which seems to work to add it to it and change the shader

#

I guess that worked good enough for the trunk

#

still no clue about the leaves

#

Put the model in there just incase

#

pretty terrible pine tree design but it's my first blender model lol

#

yeah it's definitely stretching the texture across the tree instead of wrapping it like it did in blender

#

for the bark

#

how it's supposed to look

#

ah

#

the rendering mode isn't transparent on the shaders for all the leaves

#

fixed. now it's just a problem of the planes themselves being visible

#

Fixed

#

turned off specular highlights

#

problems solved

ruby roost
#

ok here we go again. theres a new SDK, i followed the instructions for both the SDK and Udon# and all my Udon# scripts have been detached again. assume i'm an idiot: how do I update the SDK & U# without screwing everything up. fortunately i made a backup this time so I can start from a good state

desert python
#

ok, so whenever i need to update (which i dont do to often unless there is a reason to) is i make a new project. import vrcsdk3-udon and then udon sharp, then udonpy if you have it. and then on the old project, save the scene as a nw scene and put it in the assets folder. then drag and drop everything except vrcsdk:vrcsdk examples:udon:udonsharp:gizmos. and then pray

karmic spade

hmm

new problem

the instructions & documentation produced errors & were wrong. thats what i get for following official documentation 😐

Hello, some people have told me about "Bakery - GPU Lightmapper", do you think it is really necessary?

desert python
#

if you have a nvidia gpu, it makes baking lighting 20x-300x faster

void bison
#

Hmm I see, but we agree that the end result is the same?

desert python
#

uh, depends how picky you are with lighting

#

if youre not, then bakery is def the way to go, if you have perfered methods like shadow determination. unity light mapper would probs be the best

did you by any chance have 2 unity editors open at the same time for pc and quest, and uploaded both the pc and quest version at the same time

No just one

looking at the error in the logs i got, it seems like you somehow uploaded the quest version to pc

that can happen if you did the above, or if your PC build failed, and it uploaded the last successful thing built, your quest version

Imported something that broke SDK, pretty common tbh. Check logs if it tells you. But most common is to delete VRCSDK folder then re-open and re import. Then delete what you imported recently until it comes back on a re-launches

Okay, talked to the creator
They said the shader was free

They can’t check what it’s called because they’re on a business trip

Even though their discord says they’re playing VRChat...

Okay they said that it was from something called advance mirror or something like that
Does that ring any bells?

check if cinemachine is installed in package manager, and if not install it

if you're using udonsharp, cyanemu, vrworldtoolkit, make sure those are also updated

Does VRC support 3D video and can it support animated depth maps?

#

i saw a 3D video shader.. but it never got made public.. hence I am wondering! Maybe there is something out there.. (also would it support 3 videos playing at the same time?)

desert python
#

oh yea totally, problem is there is not that many videos or just over content for that field

last granite
#

willing to make it! But is there any documentation on how it functions rather then just a video display where you see a bit of stereo seperation/depth

desert python
#

and for more than 1 videoplayer.... thats still a struggle but that is technically possible

last granite
#

lower res video with it being included in the world itself not hosted.

desert python
#

as far as I know 🤥, the only good documentarion would be the unity docs and the shader matter group

last granite
#

shader matter group! yes please!

desert python
#

but vrchat has an issue where “rate limited” occurs if you try to start multiple videos at once

last granite
#

ohh not limited refreshes?

errant beacon
desert python
#

mainly for data reasons, but theres a way to decouple a videoplayer into multiple videoplayers

dusk sapphire

you only need 1 video player to play 3d videos

last granite

mhm! half and half I heard

dusk sapphire
#

the video would be encoded with side by side or top/down whichever

last granite
#

but yeah I wanna create animated lighting using this method! :>

errant beacon
#

The Pug thing I linked is a theater that supports over/under and side-by-side 3D, though idk how updated it is

desert python
#

playing 1 video is probably the best idea - you should probs do that lol

dusk sapphire
#

ahzkids video player also support anaglyph 3d videos

#

my public map has had a function for 3d videos for 2 years

last granite
#

but its essentially you just looking through a window idea right?

dusk sapphire
#

you're just looking at a video screen that displays a different image in each eye, and you have to be positioned well for the effect to work

#

the shader turns the side by side image into 1 image for each eye

last granite
#

yeah thats not what im looking for more a depth map kind of 3d video

#

as like the kinect thing show above which sadly is a non public shader.

desert python
#

essentually how 3ds cameras work

dusk sapphire
#

that looks like probably a custom shader to convert the video format into one that can be displayed in vrchat

#

i'm assuming the positional information is encoded in the video somewhere

desert python
#

so. i mean in theory you could do like a “cut out” and then bump the image forward depending on color? but I don’t know - thats probs not going to look good

last granite
#

well a video of grayscale lines

#

all the depths would be the same

#

colored lines moving around to get something like this Ive seen in neos

#

(sorry for mentioning that) just wanting to know about the possibilities to do this

#

it uses video apparently

#

with a fake depthmap

#

but it would mean someone can use industry software to make a proper light show. hence looking into this.

dusk sapphire
#

hm, could be a side by side video, except one side is a depth texture, and then the shader reads the depth texture to project the video as a 3d visual

last granite
#

yessss! i can make it (side by side video).. but further then that i'm stuck
