if possible, you could try merging the leg meshes with the side table's mesh, assuming you don't need the legs to be seperate

Well actually,
I just found this out when I set the origin to geometry.
Might be hard to see.
Left side, little yellow dot.
And this is the parenting information.
errant beacon
huh
Try isolating the legs and selecting them in Object mode, switch to Edit mode and drag-select all the vertices of the legs, then press CTRL + I to invert the selection and press delete?
If there's some stray vertex somewhere off in the distance, that should get rid of it

I am amazed that it's this difficult to make a simple car, be it in sdk2 or udon. no matter what you do, there's some roadblock.
All I want is to make a car that runs, and has car sounds. Why is something like this so difficult to do in vrc
SDK2 leaves you without car sounds because of uncontrollable audio scripts, and the existing udon prefabs leave a lot to be desired themselves
near escarp
Looked at the NotBadCar prefab ?
vapid badge
notabadcar isnt too different from the sdk2 jetdog prefab, but in general, the sdk2 cars suffer from the singular problem which is you can't use the standardassets car sound script, because of the way it functions- which is at runtime it will take the provided audio samples and just create 4 audio sources under itself, which are then on forever, and can't really be dealt with. Not to mention they are master audio, not world audio
short gulch
notabadcar isnt too different from the sdk2 jetdog prefab, but in general, the s...
Totally agree. The audio is the biggest issue with cars in vrc. I have a prefab I can send you but it'll have to wait a few hours. At work right now. It doesn't fix the global/master audio thing you mentioned but it's the best prefab I've found so far.
The issue with it generating the audio sources when it's running is by far the most annoying thing to deal with. There's no way to adjust the volume other than turning down the game's master volume.
vapid badge
it really is annoying. And it surprises me that noone has ever thought to really offer something that can do car audio, this goes for the udon prefabs as well, which have their own problems.
Jetdog's udon prefab doesnt seem to have wheel animation like his sdk2 one has, (and the acceleration is all kinds of sluggish- control scheme is a bit awkward too) and the Kurotori prefab is a pain in the ass to customize with your own model
Varneon's seems promising, with more than a few control options, but he has not released that yet
short gulch
Yeah, can't wait for Varneon's. The one I have is one that someone sent me a long time ago for sdk2. I'll send it over when I get home. I'm mainly an audio guy so this is really frustrating for me too haha
vapid badge
👍
short gulch
Not really the best example because I heavily altered the base prefab for this car and broke the text on the screen on the dash in the process, and modified the cars stats and sounds, but it should give an idea of how it works.

Is there a way I can tell a sound to automatically be stereo with no 3d space? My first thought was to just attach it to a player's head but maybe there's a better fix.

Some shaders have options for that, but the performance cost isn't great, it's a tough problem to solve with tileable textures

you'll break the repetition a bit

So I did fix my issue from yesterday with objects being buggy when picked up. In Blender my origin point had been set somewhere in the world because of using Ctrl+A and then setting objects to location. Static objects are fine to do this with because it’s a permanent location they are in, but with objects that will be picked up you should either set the origin to geometry or set it to weight, because otherwise your objects will bounce around where you grab it from and go yeeting into oblivion, or may not be able to be rotated.

If you want quick text you can try using Text Mesh Pro. Create - 3D object - Text Text Mesh Pro.

But I need to split the seats to make them separate so I can make people sit in it in VRChat. ( the circle ). So I brought it into blender, split up the seats, exported as FBX, imported it back into Unity. And this is all i got.
Don't really know where to post this. But I'm wondering if anyone has a fix?

Use Bakery, since it packs lightmaps much better than Unity does
Reduce scale on lightmap on background/larger objects

It's only necessary in places where light changes
You can have 10000 in a world, but they shouldn't be closer than 1-2 meters if the light change isn't abrupt

8 audio source limitations might be getting hit
been trying to figure out work arounds. try setting audio sources on their own layer

unity by default allows a maximum of 32 active audio sources at any one time. I'm not sure what the limit is set for vrchat, but it looks like that's whats happening. When you exceed the limit unity will start culling audio sources.
desert python
you can fire the audio sources in increments. i have a world with 122 audio sources in a 2.6 cube area. and they can play without messing with anything as long as they eventually stop. but if you play the audio sources rapidly. youll hit the limit and it can cause issues with the audio channels or worse.

I'm wanting to do some lighting with bakery, but some of the meshes with around 30 materials on are skinned mesh renderes, but I need them as mesh renderers with mesh filters on instead. Is there an easy way in unity to convert these? Or is it literally just adding one component, draggin the materials across, and removing the other?

Why do your meshes have 30 materials at all
Why are they skinned meshes ?
Please don't tell me you're trying to bake an awful avatar in your world

You should atlas those or use a sprite render texture for those in that case

that one should let you upload the world. if thats what youre trying to do?

i can upload avatars fine with this one as well
no its not modded either
people always tell me its modded
its not i downloaded 2019 from unity

youre not supposed to be able to. so im assuming since the icons and the disable biewing button are not on the default 2019 release (afaik), theres something different here. either way. you need 2018.4.20f1 to actually do this stuff

@desert python your the same person who said it was modded in dms

steel terrace
is it possible to have a bloom on/off toggle and a post processing toggle? how would i make that? or if possible, a slider.
unkempt turtle
yes, just toggle the PP component on and off to toggle post processing
not sure about sdk2, but with udon you can access each component and option there directly
steel terrace
yes, i can do a post processing toggle but i want to specifically target the bloom. I'm guessing it wont be possible then!
unkempt turtle
im pretty sure it is, i just havent worked with sdk2 in a while, so i cannot tell how to do it exactly
maybe split everything up from bloom and just disable the bloom gameobject?
steel terrace
im not sure how i can do that. i tried creating a second post processing volume, and then a empty game object with bloom on it but doesnt seem to work😫
dusk sapphire
yeah just have separate post process volumes
with separate post process profiles
make an animation to change the weights of the post process volume
and a slider to control the animation
you specifically want to target the animator rebind and update functions in the slider
the above is for sdk2, on sdk3, those ui events are not white listed so you have a slider with an udon behavior that manipulates the animator instead
steel terrace
when i try to make a seperate post processing volume what ever i edit on their effects the first one. can you get sliders on sdk2? i tried to find a tutorial but i could only find ones for udon
dusk sapphire
you need to make a separate post processing profiles
the effects are tied to the profiles, not the volumes
steel terrace
so, do i add a second post processing layer onto the camera for that?
dusk sapphire
this free sdk2 asset has a menu with post processing set up
you can take a look at that to learn by example etc
steel terrace
ooh ok thank you
dusk sapphire
no, you just make a second profile, and put that profile to the second volume
each post process volume has a profile assigned to it
and the profile is what contains the settings
thats why making a copy of the volume affects the original, they both reference the same profile
steel terrace
why would a object that acts as a on/off trigger disappear when used once?
dusk sapphire
if you left any targets blank, it will consider it to target itself
steel terrace
that'll be it lol, thank you

agile trail
Or <@403806369397866500> could help
thats my avatar XD lol its using a few different screenspace effects to make that
i cant remember what i used currently but i can try to look into my older project to figure it out. i do know that i used Mochies for the distortion and frame lag effect tho

So I'm still having this odd problem where the objects I place in Blender do not appear in the spot I want on Unity...I apply location in Blender, which then in Unity, Unity places it at the spot I want, but then VRC Pickup breaks the object and flings it all over. If I clear it, and just set the origin point to the object in Blender, it goes to 0,0,0 in Unity way off from the actual place it's supposed to be. I don't quite get why it's only with this particular project I'm running into this <.<
near escarp
Are you sure it's not within another mesh's collider when placed down ?
If two colliders intersect, it usually sends things flying
silent night
I'll check and see if that's possibly the issue, but, it's just odd because it's a single object that I place on a table. When I put it on the table and don't do anything with it, it gets put into Unity at 0,0,0. Then, when I put it on the table and apply the location, it works and applies in Unity, but then it gets flung around everywhere when it's picked up, as if it's rotating off of a different point in space.
I thought I figured this out the other day but like, holy cow, it's starting to drive my brain in circles -.-;
near escarp
oh yeah, you want the pickup's origin near itself
otherwise the bounds will be much bigger, and that'll make the collider even bigger to take the origin into account iirc
silent night
That's what I figured too.
...Now I put the origin on the object itself, and Unity has placed it at 0,0,0 in the Unity project. I'm literally losing it <~<
near escarp
yeah if you drop it in the hierarchy that's what unity does to any object
You can't have both, unless they're under another object's transform
silent night
Well it's being imported from Blender directly, the whole world is reuploaded using the same file.
near escarp
so if all your pickups had a parent that had its origin applied at 0,0,0. and then all pickups under it had their origin as themselves
Sure but you can't circumvent unity's way
silent night
But then why is it that the object, which is placed in Blender on a table, appearing at 0,0,0 when imported into Unity rewrite? Or am I missing something, because if I place the fresh project back into the viewport the room itself it appears on the table where it's supposed to be.
near escarp
what's your hierarchy like in blender ?
silent night
near escarp
ok so put those under an empty that has its transforms applied, and then make the pickup origin itself
silent night
In Blender, or Unity?
near escarp
blender
silent night
I'm sorry, brain is dumb, Empty Collection, since it's Blender?
near escarp
shift click drag it on the empty
silent night
And then apply the transforms, and use the Empty object as the origin for the pickup?
near escarp
no, the pickups have their origin as themselves, they just need to be in an empty object so that it functions correctly in unity
silent night
Taking a shot at that, then.
I suppose this theoretically should work at that point then, because it kept putting the object at 0,0,0, this should put the empty at 0,0,0 and then the object in the location....
....Ugh, nope. It still places the damn thing at 0,0,0 somehow.
I don't even know how that's possible at this point <~<
near escarp
yeah i'm not sure what your scene is in Unity so it's hard to tell
silent night
Well, this is about what it looks like heirarchy wise,
The "Ear2TongueUpdate" is the Blender file.
The transform axis on the left is where the Empty object put the item in question.

Hey would anyone know why a mirror wouldn't reflect a particle effect (like for a campfire) but only with terrain behind it? Half of the fire with terrain behind it doesn't reflect, but the top half where there's water does.
Also a different mirror in the same world doesn't reflect the water (the mirror is partly "submerged" in it)
First time using particles or water shaders, what do
desert python
not 100% of particles but if the mirror is set to cull certain layers. it might not be culling layer the particles are on or the water so it doesnt reflect them

I keep getting these errors each time I start up a new unity scene

Looks like something to do with unity hub
But I do not know where to go or how to go about fixing this

Join your meshes in blender !
Even if connected, if there's two distinct edges, it'll look like that

hm
i think i may just not be able to fix that due to the way i made the model

You should probably do a full reinstall of bakery and reimport from the store
pallid dove
It's not just bakery in unity store I have it as an asset on my desktop
So I can just import it from there
He used to work every time when I imported it and I never got any errors when I started unity
near escarp
yeah that sounds like a bad idea
pallid dove
But now for some reason I'm starting getting errors from unity and now I'm getting errors from Baker
I'm not just bakery now unity is giving me trouble saying something about files to unity but it's not working
near escarp
That's why the rest of us get it from the official source and don't have errors 
pallid dove
I'm thinking that might be the case of why bakeries not working
Unity keeps saying something about unity hub
I just don't know where I need to go to find those things
And I do not know where to go to ask more of these questions of why I'm having these problems

I'm working on an in-game joystick that a user can interact with. I put the VRC Pickup script on it and I set orientation to Grip, and Pickupable to false. Now I think I might need to write my own custom script to get the joystick to actually move/rotate with the players hand motion. Does anyone have an idea on how I could do that?

So 100% not VRC related but after years of using Unity I finally experienced a new issue working on a VRC project. ANY change I made to an object would revert the moment I left the inspector.

any1 gots an idea how to use sdk2 to make world objects or paticles originating from a world track and follow a player?

Hey everyone! Im trying to get this train to move forward in a straight line and loop! Managed to get it working in play mode within Unity however when I play test the world in VRChat the train doesn't move. Any ideas? Checked both the Animation and tested in play mode cant find anything wrong in Unity. No console errors either.. stuck.
dawn portal
@bold ibex is it using rigidbodies? animations? or both?
bold ibex
Thanks for getting back to me so quick!
Right now I just have a simple Animation. Point A to Point B
dawn portal
no rigidbodies?
bold ibex
Correct
dawn portal
hmm... is the loop animation the only thing u have on it? no other animations?
bold ibex
Yup! Just movement, I have some attached lights and particle effects.
Its weird and no one knows whats going on. Again moves in unity just fine! Only doesnt move when moved over to VRC
dawn portal
that extra bit doesnt matter. i just need to know if any other animations are on the animator that could keep it from working
dawn portal
is the animator enabled by default
bold ibex
Yup! And I have Wrap Mode set to Loop
dawn portal
is there anything in the game that disables ur train?
bold ibex
Nope, no switches or anything yet. Trains the most complex thing I've added to the world so far
dawn portal
oh. i suggest taking off the animator component as vrc sees it as depricated. instead use an animator controller and drag that in as ur first animation.
bold ibex
Gotcha ill give it a try!
dawn portal
kk
bold ibex
So instead of using the animation component, you want me to use the Animator component?
dawn portal
yes
u just have to make a controller and drag the animation in using the unity animator graph
bold ibex
hmm alright I think I understand, let me give it a try
Have it set like this, just dragged the animation into the graph?

Hello all! I am curious to know if it comes to making a "teleport" effect on screen, would it be responsible from a Shader, or could it be a small video clip(5 seconds)? Basically I have it so that when you touch a game object with your hand, it takes you to another part of the map.
Edit: Looking at an Atlased 2D texture and just cycle through UV's, but still open to know better optimized options.

Hey, might be a dumb question but after working on a world for a little while.. the VRChat SDK drop down no longer has anything but a "Utilities" tab, could anyone help? Thank you.

Check your console for errors? o:
also, try right-clicking the VRCSDK in the asset browser and hitting Reimport
turbid gyro
So how long does it usually take for one to load in an test the world your working on? I just feel like my VRC takes a really long time to load so I can test my world. Anyone know why?
civic ibex
Depends on your hardware and how many assets you're loading. But here is a trick I use. You can use CyanEmu that runs your world in the editor and loads up VRC code so you're getting close to the VRC experience right in your editor.
https://github.com/CyanLaser/CyanEmu
Load the asset and then hit play!
turbid gyro
very interesting
civic ibex
No need to build and run the actual VRC client, it emulates the VRC client right in the editor.

Hallo! Does anyone have a good video player suggestion for me?
I need to be able to stream from our CDN or twitch.
I need it to use Render Texture Mode
I am using a custom shader to add video reflections to nearby materials, but I have a small dilemma.
VRC Unity Video Player doesnt seem to stream properly.
The VRCAV Pro Video Player uses Material Override and I can't switch it, so my shader doesn't work.
Any ideas? Much appreciated!

So i've seen maps before that go on forever.
last night I was on a map that was a train going in a straight line on a track with a basic cityscape around it, that went on forever. maps that do this are not new and even predate udon.

I've already imported other 3D .fbx models into my scene and they worked out fine but I have a joystick model that won't appear in the scene. I tried changing the default materials and that didn't work either. Any ideas why I'm having trouble with this model?
It shows up in Unity but not in VrChat
mild spade
Few things you can check: Pres Play and see if the model is still where it should be, if it is not, then an animation or script is probably controlling its position.
Next add a simple cube to your scene and load into VrChat. If you dont see the cube either, then there is something wrong with your project that is not letting you update the world (maybe some bad script/shader included in the joystick model)
stark talon
yeah it shows up when in Unity play mode. I have a duplicate model in the scene with no scripts on it and that doesn't show up in VrChat either, so it could be what you mentioned about it not letting me update the world. I will try adding a cube and see what happens
stark talon
@mild spade Yeah I tried uploading the map with a 3D cube added and it didn't update the map

I feel like there's something weird about the colliders in my level. I've got a level with a hallway with a ceiling. When I use CyanEmu, I can get by just fine, but when I use the "Build and Play", it won't let me past, even though my avatar is smaller than the one CyanEMU uses. Disabling the Ceiling collider lets me go through the hallway, but of course I can then jump through the ceiling, which is undesirable. Is there something I'm not understanding?
dusk sapphire
player collider is 2m tall
solemn jewel
No matter what the size of their avatar?
dusk sapphire
it is always 2m tall regardless of avatar height
solemn jewel
Well crap. That'd do it then. Thanks!
dusk sapphire
but you can get by in cyanemu? it should be using a 2m tall collider as well
solemn jewel
So just to sanity check: one unity unit = 1 meter?
dusk sapphire
yeah
oh, it looks like its set to 1.6m in cyanemu
that'll do it
or I might be misunderstanding how the player collider is generated
solemn jewel
Can you mess around with the player's height using Udon? Like, player.gameObject.GetComponent<CharacterController>().height = 1; or whatever?
(Using U# of course).
dusk sapphire
nope

Haha of course. Thanks! I've got idea of where to go from here.
