my other world i uploaded when it wasent published let me make it a private world

no not yet i have to wait a week befor i can put it in labs

[dusk sapphire]

https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_e0e2afda-fd57-48fa-b611-3efaaa59e080

[bold ibex]

no thats not my world

https://gyazo.com/16da1821e90e069a988671f94f6e3992

was just wondering why it stuck in unlisted

[dusk sapphire]

it looks like you havent published it to labs?

[bold ibex]

https://gyazo.com/115505d6c26b0667f7cc37f71dab58eb

my other world that i couldent publish to labs for a week let me make it a private world

but not this one

[worn elk]

Just curious, but what's the criteria for getting out of Labs status?

I made a world, it's been up for months. Has been pretty popular.

A friend made their world, and it has been up for a fraction of the time, and yet is out of Labs status already.

I don't mind too much since a lot of people in my community already know about it, and go there anyway, but it just struck me as odd.

[bold ibex]

100 people faved my world and it got out of labs in 2 days

dont know if that helps

[dusk sapphire]

you published your other map to labs on the 29th

it hasnt been a week yet

[worn elk]

Be been told there is no criteria and it's random and at moderator discretion, but surely "at random" can't be true

[bold ibex]

yeee i was just wondering why it said unlisted when the other one wasent when it wasent published

guess it just is how it is

[dusk sapphire]

it's not about the absolute amount of visits you get based on my observations. 1000 visit in a single day is worth a lot more than say 10000 visits over a few months. I imagine the number of people who actually favourite your map based on those first visits weight heavily too, first impression and all.

[left ravine]

anyone know why as of unity 2019 some of my mesh colliders are noticeably bumpy?

i have a static mesh instead of terrain in one of my worlds and walking in certain directions there's a certain amount of stairstepping when you go up and down the hills

[narrow adder]

anyone's got a good, rain and/or Rainy window TUT? im seeing some but they are from like 5 years ago

Hey is the video player a premade asset and if so is it free or paid?

[kind leaf]

SDK3 does include a basic player see VRCPrefabs.com for more. or this link which is the same place https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTP-eIkYLZh7pDhpO-untxy1zbuoiqdzVP2z5-vg_9ijBW7k8ZC9VP6cVL-ct5yKrySPBPJ6V2ymlWS/pubhtml# nothing on here is paid.

[sudden lily]

Something I've seen in the VRChat home, and a few user-made worlds, is they have big circular portals instead of the oval kind. How do you make those/configure a portal marker to create them?

[green ledge]

thank you v much!

[verbal hare]

So I'm trying to push my Unity level to VRChat, but it isn't letting me. I tried reimporting the VRChat SDK, I tried reimporting VRWorld Toolkit, both to no avail. This is what it's giving me. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

[dusk sapphire]

delete Assets\Standard Assets\Utility\SimpleActivatorMenu.cs

standard assets has a few scripts that are not compatible with unity 2019

also, you can't use them in sdk3 anyway

[verbal hare]

So would it be best to delete the entire Standard Asset folder then?

[dusk sapphire]

sure

[verbal hare]

@dusk sapphireNot sure if you could answer this question as well, but I'm trying to repush my world to VRChat (I deleted Standard Assets), but it's giving me this error...do you happen to know why?

Like, I'm trying to Build and Test and it isnt letting me

[dusk sapphire]

check for other errors in console

[verbal hare]

This appears when I clicked on the error posted previously

[dusk sapphire]

https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit/wiki/Fixing-Build-Problems

[verbal hare]

I'm looking here, but it looks like nothing here is relating to the errors I'm getting

[silent parcel]

hello, I've made a world for VR Cha

Chat

It's called Pillow Port

[median junco]

trying to just add a simple animator override controller to the default chair example and as soon as the scene starts its set to none, and ingame it doesnt play the animation, any idea?

[median junco]

unpacking the prefab fully fixes it? seems kinda weird

there is no behaviours for states?

to make the animation take full control

[urban epoch]

The VRC Station Editor has a known issue where it does not properly "save" changes made if it was the last thing done before you open press Play or Build. The easiest fix is to wiggle something around after doing this, or you can put your inspector in Debug mode and set the values there.

[chilly hawk]

How many synced pickup items is too many?

(for a non-quest world)

Oh right - with gravity

[kind leaf]

Another loaded question. The right question would be to say I want this number of pickups, would that be bad for performance 😛

[chilly hawk]

Fair, fair

Okay, what about 50 handheld items, all with box colliders? Would that be a performance killer?

[kind leaf]

naw, not if you your lighting right and those objects dont do anything over than fall

high poly, multiple light sources, (active)mirrors, and additional updates would make those impactful

[chilly hawk]

I see... now that you mention mirrors, is it worth having more than one in a small map?

[kind leaf]

It's up to you just make sure if one is on the other is off

[chilly hawk]

Thanks, I'll stick to one then

[green lagoon]

good idea to have it toggle to where you have a high-quality mirror and a low-quality mirror

that way folks with lower-end computers or Quest don't have their framerate die if they want to look at themselves

[chilly hawk]

Quest can't handle all the stuff I have anyway, but I'll add that for lower-end PCs

[green lagoon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUALbgztU5Y

[kind leaf]

Quest 2 can handle a lot. Meta I am sure will be slightly better. No reason to build around Quest 1 anymore.

[green lagoon]

I have a friend with a quest one but it was a hand-me-down from a quest 2 user

[kind leaf]

That was nice of them 🙂

[green lagoon]

so ya if I build any worlds for my friends I'll probably have to consider the quest 1

but probably not the end of the world if I'm just trying to make a chill bedroom

[chilly hawk]

If I ever make another map after this one, I may try quest compatibility

Okay, now the big question. I've got empty space to fill and I'm out of ideas.
(I will be adding proper textures. Dark areas on walls are for posters, photos, etc.)

(don't worry about the bar area, it's unfinished)

[kind leaf]

cards? spin the bottle? dice? just some more used games.

Where did you get the airhocky? I was building my own but now I am like "why"lol

[chilly hawk]

Spin the bottle could work in the upstairs area 🤔

[chilly hawk]

https://booth.pm/en/items/3093354

The physics aren't great though

[kind leaf]

The bug notice is concerning but worth a look. I took the UI approach like the blackjack prefab.

On the other side of the button (left is the name of the table, so the right side), I would copy the stable instructions and add it to a canvas so users know what to do to avoid the bug

[chilly hawk]

The puck is too slow and it always takes 2 hits to reflect as the first slows it down even more.
I want to replace it with another game, really.

[kind leaf]

whatever works, I would dig into the scripts and see if you could improve it. If you did I am sure TES would be happy to know. maybe a later project for you though 🙂 But having a working airhocky would be badass

[chilly hawk]

I have a working card set. Could move the chess set upstairs and place the cards in the lower room. 🤔

I don't know anything about Udon or Unity script, so I won't be improving the air hockey anytime soon.

I don't know many free games though, so it's hard to replace it.

Oh, forgot I found one the other day

I might have enough now 🤔

[nocturne isle]

Added a fire shader, and it works perfectly on PC, but on Quest it dissapears. Normally I would think this is an optimization issue, but strangely it still appears in mirrors, the camera, and even screenshots. Just not in the actual game itself.

For example, I took a screenshot to show that the fire was not there, but sure enough the fire was there in the image.

[kind leaf]

I suspect it's a depth issue. Particles are not my specialty so I would recommend looking up how to change the depth of a particle or trying different fire effects from other sources. I have luck with Epic toon FX.

[chilly hawk]

Could you suggest a player limit? I was thinking 30 at most.

Oh, actually I think I can fit 40

[green lagoon]

40 looks like it would be a little cramped in there

[chilly hawk]

I have the path to the back room, plus an extra room under the stairs I haven't used yet.

[green lagoon]

something I might want to mention is when a room hits the limit you set up it's actually a soft limit that can go above that if like a friend tries to join you so hypothetically you could actually have like 80 people in that space which would be Sardine Can

[chilly hawk]

I doubt it will get popular enough for that 😅

[green lagoon]

FairPoint just figured I'd let you know

[chilly hawk]

Oh, forgot to set up the mirror

Gotta do that

[tulip rampart]

how to make trigger teleports in sdk3 looks like there is no VRC_Trigger packaged with it? never used sdk2 tho so maybe its an old thing that was removed that im not aware of

[green lagoon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BheVIHD3Vrg&t=0s

[tulip rampart]

oh thanks ;)

[final vessel]

I corrected the issue with the vrchat update that caused alot of the flying worlds aircraft to drop when a player enters. But now I'm having a collision detection problem with the saccflight system. Flying along shooting guns, and you explode. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[warm stone]

so im working with audio link in a world im making but the audio link only wants to work with Audio source in the audiolinkimput area and no any video source how do i fix this its driving me insane

[kind leaf]

You can try Sacc's discord. It should be on the git or on the booth page

[narrow adder]

So, I think I'm ready to Furnish and do some interior design. Where do I find models and assets?

[median junco]

do you by chance now how to override animation controll? ala MMD Dance, cant figure out any way, i just want to enter a chair and have an animation play that takes full control :/

[rough abyss]

I'm creating a new world and get error message when import the new SDK(VRCSDK3-WORLD-2021.11.24.16.19_Public), I'm on unity2019.4.31.f1, is there anything I have to upgrade before I use the new SDK?

[final vessel]

Thanks, looking now.

Sorry, meant that a reply to my original post

[kind leaf]

The usual places 🙂
The Asset Store
CGTrader
VRCPrefabs.com
Loads more, Google is quite helpful especially when looking for royalty free game assets.

[kind leaf]

If you followed the setup guide there should be no errors. Some times faux errors show up on importing but either go away on the next compile or when you press clear. Did you try pressing clear? If it doesn't go away post a screenshot of the errors.

[rough abyss]

Must be something wrong because when I added vrc_pickup on object it always shows this

[drowsy oar]

Huh

[rough abyss]

I had several old world project which works fine for me

[kind leaf]

did you setup the vrc layers and collision matrix? <- login to the sdk and click the two buttons about it

[rough abyss]

no, since I'm creating one part of a big world this time and will export mine as unity package file, I didn't add the world descriptor

[kind leaf]

then youll keep getting the layer issue

[rough abyss]

I solve the problem by adding world descriptor and setup vrc layers, but I'm going to delete it in the end, will my vrc_pickup components still work when exported to another project?

[kind leaf]

yep, once the receiver does the same

[sick lava]

Anyone know why my post processing light is not showing in game but its showing in my scene?

[kind leaf]

did you set your reference camera up in the scene descriptor?

[sick lava]

Yeah I did

[kind leaf]

And the camera it links to is the one with your post processing layer

[sick lava]

Wait how do I do that? Sorry I'm new to this type of stuff

[kind leaf]

Ok so when you setup post processing you added a post processing layer to the main camera correct?

[sick lava]

Yeah I have it already on the camera

[kind leaf]

Ok if you select VRCWorld and look in the Inspector, you will see "Reference Camera" if it says none you need to drag n drop that camera into the slot that says none. If it has a Camera there, just make sure it is the same camera with your layer. Click the camera in the slot and it will highlight it in your hierarchy.

[sick lava]

Ooh TY SM that fixed it

[kind leaf]

sweet

[bold ibex]

can quest see particals in a world?

[coral magnet]

Yes. Though I'd recommend using a particle shader optimized for quest

[bold ibex]

any shader ideas and how to get it?

[proper mortar]

anyone can get on desktop to help me test some object sync variable for late joiners, I need to know if it is working or not before I continue

[coral magnet]

They're included in the VRChat SDK

[bold ibex]

ok

anyone know how they make that realistic rain pouring and on the windows and the drops?

[coral magnet]

Silent had a popular shader for than, on booth and Gitlab I think

[kind leaf]

https://gitlab.com/s-ilent/fake-glass

[bold ibex]

thanks

[amber epoch]

Sorry I am brand new to making worlds and this discord so you probably get asked this a lot but what size should a average room be? Like how to you size everything properly? Is it a pre determined thing or does everyone just kind of eye ball it?

[kind leaf]

Use a Capsule or a 2m tall cube as a fake player for scaling. Don't want to scale much smaller than that.

[amber epoch]

You are amazing mate I wanted to start with a simple recreation of my house. I have the floor plan done just didn't know how tall to make the walls. Thank you

[kind leaf]

Ha! Glad you could work out the floor plan. I have been trying to recreate my house for about a year. Just can't get the layout perfect 😛 there always ends up being one wall out of place.

[bold ibex]

i cant get this to auto smooth :(

nvm

got it

[amber epoch]

Oh man I know right. I got lucky and had to module my house for a certification I needed in blueprinting.

[amber epoch]

What did you do?

[proper mortar]

How can I get an Interact() with a button press to trigger globally, and not locally

wait I might have just figured it out

[bold ibex]

i have no clue

but i fixxed it

now i have no idea how this SDK works so i need someone to show me that i just need a spawn point and 3 toggles if anyones willing to show me

i made the world in blender and now its all in unity

[proper mortar]

i fixed it, if anyone knows how vrc udon networking works can i get help making the state of an object to sync with late joiners

[final vessel]

Having trouble with float script on a plane with water shader. Do you turn off collider and make it a trigger (Seaplane)

[tulip rampart]

changing skybox material in udon? i have an array with all my skyboxes and i rotate between them easy but how to apply a material from my current index to skybox material 🤔

[dreamy holly]

hey guys) is it possible to enter Android world from PC without VR headset?

[tulip rampart]

android only? i guess so but i never tried

[dreamy holly]

like just to be a watcher

[dreamy holly]

is there a way to make a crossplatform world?

[tulip rampart]

yes

[dreamy holly]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/cross-platform-setup

is it the right place?

[tulip rampart]

yeah just gotta change build settings to either android or windows and if it has the same world id its going to make it crossplatform

[dreamy holly]

thanks a lot

[tulip rampart]

no problem

[manic sonnet]

Can somebody help please; I have an object in my scene that's about 30,000m away from spawn that I can see fine in unity but I cannot see it at all in game.

[near escarp]

Camera clipping distance needs to be adjusted, but I can't imagine what you're trying to do that for

[manic sonnet]

The skybox I am using doesn't have a moon in it so I made a sphere and put it far away to look like one

[pale raptor]

Hi! im pretty new to unity and i found a free room on booth so i took it to edit it for a friend , i cant upload it because of an error but i dont know how i can fix it

[near escarp]

It could be much closer and people likely wouldn't be able to tell, could also be added to the skybox itself

[near escarp]

You got the SDK and Udon sharp up to date ?

[manic sonnet]

I tried bringing it closer but even if I adjust it's size it still doesn't look right

[pale raptor]

i do have the sdk but i dont know about the udon sharp ^^

[manic sonnet]

on top of that I added stars using a particle system which twinkle about that also do not show up

[pale raptor]

i just got the sdk from the vrc website

[nocturne isle]

Anyone know of some good free fire effects that'll work on the Quest? I made a fireplace earlier, but for some reason the fire would only show up in mirrors and cameras, so I need to find something new.

[pale raptor]

oh i think it worked.. deleted a file from an asset ^^

[bold ibex]

hey does anyone know how to make a cubemap mirror?

[pale raptor]

nvm help...

[kind leaf]

Did you already upload once before?

[pale raptor]

nope its my first time uploading a world

[kind leaf]

If you purchased the world it probably has an ID attached. Follow the directions on the screen for removal

[pale raptor]

ah im pretty new to unity , i cant find it ^^ is it in the sdk or the world file?

[kind leaf]

In the hierarchy usually in VRCWorld

you can also try just typing VRC_SceneDescriptor in the search bar of the hierarchy

[pale raptor]

ah i think something went wrong...

[kind leaf]

just type PipelineManager

everything in your scene turns grey to show you what isnt in your return, dont pay attention to the scene. You are looking for the search

[pale raptor]

if i search for pipelinemanager or vrc_scene nothing comes up in the hierarchy ; /

[kind leaf]

if you are still in playmode it wont, also make sure you are searching in the hierarchy. You cant build without it so you have it

[pale raptor]

do i have to log out of the control panel?

[kind leaf]

shouldn't

[pale raptor]

oh i think i got it~

[pale raptor]

oh okay!

[kind leaf]

thats not the hierarchy

[pale raptor]

the hierarchy doesnt show it tho even if im not in play mode

[kind leaf]

ok, what does your hierarchy look like?

pro tip you can alt+printscreen to capture just your active window so no need to crop

then u just ctrl v in discord

[pale raptor]

oh thanks haha ^^

[kind leaf]

yeah its in play mode

[pale raptor]

oh..

TT

[kind leaf]

hit the sideways triangle that is blue

[kind leaf]

VRCWorld is 8 from the top and blue

right click it and choose unpack

then select it and in the inspector you should see the pipeline manager. if the Blueprint ID is populated click detach

after that you should be good

[pale raptor]

ah thanks i will try it! ^^

ah i think it worked^^ quick dumb question , how do i get the vrccam out..?

[kind leaf]

it goes away after you finish uploading

its only there for the upload process

[pale raptor]

oh okay thank you so much ^^

i will bother you for the last time ..when i click upload it doesnt do anything after i filled out the informations , do i have to do something else?

[kind leaf]

you have to confirm the information is accurate and you have permission by ticking the box at the bottom.

T

The first box is for general uploads, the second box is for public

both get checked when making a public upload

[pale raptor]

i want to keep it private for now since i still want to work on the lighting^^

but doesnt seem to upload

[kind leaf]

make sure you don't have errors and that unity isnt paused

[kind leaf]

SDK2?

[pale raptor]

Hm?

[kind leaf]

🤷 The project has a few assets in it that it shouldn't, like the oculus stuff. Also the worldcreation is erroring out which means something else is wrong. I'm afraid I can't walk you through it anymore. I would contact whoever you bought the world from.

[pale raptor]

ah okay TT thanks for helping me out tho i really appreciate it!

[sterile urchin]

Dose anyone know of a way to make Battle Rope in the world?

like a rope that I can hold and move about?

[kind leaf]

bones. Make the rope in blender

[sterile urchin]

you know what I dont know why I did not think of that lol been sat here going berrrrr rope? lamo

[thorny zodiac]

SDK2 still working not showing any of my upload

when its finish uploading and its been upload nothing changes in my world

i put it in quest

[dire fractal]

Right, so more info on what I said in #udon-general

Yes, it was because I downloaded standard assets lmao

But even after deleting the folder, the world’s still broken

Are there files I just missed?

[kind leaf]

Share the error list screenshot 🙂

[dire fractal]

I can get screenshots in a bit, gimme a sec

[dire fractal]

hmm

this is weird

I can't find the exact message

but I remember the message when I was having most of the issues was like

[kind leaf]

You know where the console is right? Are there any red icon messages?

[dire fractal]

"unable to build because cene-standalonewindows64-worldtest.vrcw missing"

Yeah I checked the console

[kind leaf]

That is an effect not a cause. Should be other errors

[dire fractal]

right so here's all the ones showing up

[kind leaf]

Assets\SampleScenes\Scripts\ParticlesSceneControls remove it

[scenic kraken]

Anyone knows what this "enviroment-broken" tag on my world is supposed to mean?

[dire fractal]

I'll try that

[kind leaf]

2 things:

1. Something in your world is broken, a script, a collider not present allowing the player to fall
2. Kids doing what kids do best, false reporting

[scenic kraken]

probably the 2nd then

[kind leaf]

If you test your world and all checks out just ignore it

[scenic kraken]

why does 1 report put such a tag on there?

[bold ibex]

so im having a lighting issue it looks normal on pc but on quest the lighting on the player is super bright i have all the lights disabled when i upload the world so dont know how to lower the brightness for quest players?

[kind leaf]

are you using light probes?

[bold ibex]

yeah

[kind leaf]

It probably wasnt one report with almost 13k visits you probably got a few griefers. Just the worst kind of people that cant create so they attack (that statement only applying if your environment isnt broken of course).

[kind leaf]

So assuming you have ZERO realtime lights effecting the environment, your light probes are probably to close to the baked light sources. Move them further way

[dire fractal]

I can't believe it worked, you are a legend

[bold ibex]

its a pretty small room how many light probs do you think i need i have like 5

[dire fractal]

was stressing on this so much, can't thank you enough dude

[kind leaf]

any .cs that isnt an udon behavior will do that. Now you know 🙂

[dire fractal]

I'll keep that in mind

[kind leaf]

The quantity isnt the issue, how close they are to the lights matters.

If you are using post processing on the pcvr side remember quest doesnt have it. post processing write over top of the scene not with or in it. So pcvr can end up darker and more crisp and then you arnt aware of how bright the scene actually is. So disabling post processing while setting up your lighting is best.

[bold ibex]

How do people create the effect of liquid in a container? For example, the Black Cat has drinks with liquid in it that stays level with the ground.

[sullen rose]

I don't know but I really hope its a cool cheat, like the bottle shader from Alyx.

[kind leaf]

https://pastebin.com/ppbzx7mn
Liquid shader used to act like the object has liquid in it. Can be used for drinks.
by MinionsArt

[bold ibex]

pog thanks

im glad its as easy as renaming the .txt to .shader and dragging it into unity

[kind leaf]

That works, alternatively instead of downloading as a text document you can set it to all files and it should just become a .shader

[bold ibex]

oo okay

[heavy whale]

what's the name of these buttons?

[kind leaf]

terrain tools? There should be a tooltip when hovered

[heavy whale]

i mean i wanna make thing in unity to have these buttons

and idk their name

[kind leaf]

You want to use the button art?

[heavy whale]

because toolbars are something else

well, no, i just wanna copy the button behaviour

ignoring the sprite.

since i've seen multiple building add-ons, like worldbuilder with the same buttons

or at least, a painting mode and a ssettings menu

[kind leaf]

those are compiled dlls and other internal programming. You cannot copy the functionality of those buttons, you have to write your own udon behaviors with maybe shader magic.

[heavy whale]

it was just unity question, not udon-related.

cuz these scripts wouldn't be compiled in the world anyways, it was just for easier dev on my side to have some buttons

[kind leaf]

try #development-advanced or the Unity Discord. Both of those will be more suited for tool development

[heavy whale]

unity has a dis?

[kind leaf]

uhuh 🙂 if you google it its the top result

[thorn latch]

I'm having a weird issue on my world. It seems when you join an instance of the world for the first time, the audio from the AVPro player doesn't play. However, if your reconnect to either that instance, or a new one, the music plays as intended. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

[next gazelle]

i found a problem with my world while trying to upload it, the "upload" button simply does nothing. i click it and nothing happens, does someone know how to fix this?

[bold ibex]

does anyone know how to make a toggle to make the albedo change color on an object and click it again to change it back ?

[jaunty surge]

how do i create a VRchat world? i need somewhere to keep my avatars XD

[kind leaf]

https://vrchat.com/home/download read everything under content creation

[random sphinx]

i think i'm having a problem with post processing. i suspect that the bloom effect created significant visual distortion around the emissive materials in my scene. so I deleted the post processing components from my scene; however the distortion remains. any advice or suggestions about this?

[random sphinx]

hmm, it might not be related to the emissive materials, but i'm not sure what it is.

[nocturne crown]

i thought max quest size for worlds was 100mb now

[kind leaf]

It is if you are using the newest sdk

[nocturne crown]

great so I need to pay to convert from what im told

[kind leaf]

Pay? Told wrong

[nocturne crown]

hm

so how to I convert

[kind leaf]

Login to the vrc website and follow the directions under content creation

In downloads

[random sphinx]

you mean SDK3, right? are there multiple versions of SDK3?

[nocturne crown]

for worlds

[random sphinx]

sorry meant to post that in response to @kind leaf

[nocturne crown]

its telling me to mkae a whole new world

[kind leaf]

...

[nocturne crown]

oh

so I delete the sdk and then import the new one

wouldnt that break the world and make me need to upload a new one

[random sphinx]

so just to be clear, as long as I'm using SDK3 I can make quest worlds up to 100mb?

[golden frost]

Hi! im making a world and the particles are not being reflected in the mirror! im very new to world creation so this may be a easy thing so sorry :p

[tardy ridge]

Does anyone know what could be the reason causing this error?

[stone marsh]

You need to use a shader that supports disabling blackface culling. You don't see the particles in the mirror because the mirror sees the backface of the particle which is culled.

[near escarp]

Ye

[nocturne isle]

The control panel is just... gone. Anyone else had this issue?

[near escarp]

You have console errors

[nocturne isle]

I have no idea what to do with this information

[near escarp]

you're looking only for red messages

[stone marsh]

No, you need to go to your actual console tab and inspect all the red stop sign errors

[nocturne isle]

There aren't any

Press clear. Then attempt to enter play mode. Then inspect your errors. Only the red stop sign errors matter

[nocturne isle]

Ope, nevermind. Found one.

Something about missing files and overrides. This only happened when I tried building to Android.

[stone marsh]

None of those scripts are supported

Delete all of the scripts referenced by the errors or just delete the standard assets folder all the scripts referenced are in. Standard Assets isn't needed and as you see, throws errors in 2019.

[nocturne isle]

Weird that it let me build it earlier then. Alright, I'll try that.

Seems to have worked! Nice.

[pale raptor]

does someone know any free small world that is SDK3

[amber epoch]

@kind leaf Yooo I am new here but want to say you are the champ here. Going out of your way to help everyone. Thank you

[nocturne isle]

The lighting on everything seems to flicker on my world. Would this be a shader issue?

[golden frost]

Ty! Any shaders come to mind with the default vrcsdk mirror?

[stone marsh]

Poiyomi, Mochi's Uber, Silents shader, uts, XS toon, etc. Just need something that let's you disable culling.

[bold ibex]

Does anyone mind showing me some basics like how to set a spawn point and create toggles I kind of made my world in blender soooo

[tardy ridge]

There are plenty on Booth.pm, you can take a look

[pale raptor]

The free ones are sdk2

[near escarp]

Spookyghostboo's worlds should be SDK3

[pale raptor]

already made a mistake by not looking if they are sdk3 and wasted 5 hours..

[pale raptor]

I will take a look

[tardy ridge]

awwww... are you looking for a world that has all functional scripts? And yes try SpookyGhostBoo, he's worlds are amazing for starting your first world.

[chrome juniper]

my SDK control panel Is gone

it dissapeared

[kind leaf]

Whenever something goes wrong, check the console for errors immediately, if you dont understand them, report on those 🙂

[chrome juniper]

alright then thank you

[amber epoch]

What is the average light map resolution you would recommend. I want to mostly build my world for quest so I know it is recommended lower for baking but I don't want it to look too bad.

[kind leaf]

I bake between 2-4k for everything

[stone marsh]

There's no one size fits all answer to that as the answer will heavily depend on your meshes and lighting setup. Everyone will have different results at different settings. It's often best to slowly lower the settings until you start to see a visual reduction in quality or stop once it no longer looks good to you. Sometimes you can get away with really low resolution lightmaps with very low settings, other times you may be forced to use a higher res depending on your setup. Start high and work your way lower until you need to stop. This will ensure the lowest file size impact for your specific project as well vs just using someone else's settings.

[amber epoch]

You are amazing I love this answer. Also is there a better way to resize a prefab I got a bed But it is literally 10 times bigger then my world.

[stone marsh]

Few options.
1: click on the FBX in your asset folder and in the inspector there is a scale option. This is the technically best option as it allows you to scale the FBX so that it can maintain the 1:1:1 ratio in the editor which is best but sometimes not necessary.

2: simply select the object in your scene and scale it using the scale tool or by manually changing the size of the scale in the inspector where it gives you an XYZ scale that defaults to 1:1:1. This is the easiest and fastest. E is the key for scale. This may be the best for you as a beginner but 1 is more "technically correct" for other reasons not worth going into.

3: import it into blender and adjust the scale then export it as the size you need.

Hey, a couple people now have suggested that one of my worlds should become a featured world. Is there any process that I or my world need to go through to have my world featured/spotlit?

[golden frost]

thank you so much!

hey yall its me again 😅 . how to i update a already published vrc world?

[visual ibex]

Hello how’s everyone

Can any one help me make a world a crypto university world for all that want to learn crypto

[craggy vigil]

if i bought this would i be able to make it in to a vrchat world or would it be too big https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/urban/hq-abandoned-school-modular-106665

[visual ibex]

I can get other crypto influencers there to teach in other rooms

[craggy vigil]

the ghosts won't like that

[visual ibex]

lol

[green lagoon]

doubt the vrchat staff would like that in addition to the ghosts

[craggy vigil]

are they afraid of ghosts ?

[green lagoon]

the crypto influencers

[craggy vigil]

is there a way to use a shoutcast stream to stream audio into the world do you know

[visual ibex]

Holy I just want to make a world why does it matter who goes there I spend every day teaching people how to navigate crypto on vr chat no one has a problem wanting to learn it’s one world out of how many in vr chat

I will have a crypto university mark my words if no one wants to help develop the world I will have it made regardless

Funny thing I am one of the first people to use discord you know how easy it is for me to talk to my friend that made discord and have this sever taken down

Thanks for the simple help asking how to make a fucking world

[crimson pike]

bro really played the "my dad works for microsoft" card lmao

[random sphinx]

how can I make my pickup objects and animated objects globally synced?

[static marsh]

i cant found progrids

[random sphinx]

you have to show preview packages to be able to see it

[kind leaf]

Crypto is not a tos violation. Go for it. There are a few nft worlds

[static marsh]

there is no preview packages

supriselying

[static marsh]

i checked there

there is no preview packages

noone ever believes someone

unless they screanshot it

[random sphinx]

screenshots are helpful, yes

[static marsh]

nvm found it

now to builld a really cool building

[random sphinx]

can anyone tell me about making global objects? is there a script included with the SDK to do this? if so i can't find it. if not, does anyone have a good tutorial for how to make it?

[static marsh]

how to make windows out of nothing

how do you make doors

is what i need to know

[random sphinx]

you should look up some tutorials on 3D modeling basics; i also recommend using unity's pro builder tools

[static marsh]

he didnt explain how to make up a door

[kind leaf]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrc_objectsync

[random sphinx]

i looked at that already but didn't find it very helpful. is that some udon script method? i'm super new to udon

[stone marsh]

You need to select the object that you want to sync and in the inspector click "Add component" at the very bottom of the inspector, then search for "Sync" and it will show up as vrc object sync

There are settings in the rigidbody that can be adjusted if you wish it to have gravity or not, or if you want it to kinematic or not (move after being dropped)

[random sphinx]

ah i see it now.

so this should be all i need for my objects to be global?

[stone marsh]

yea, basically. the min requirements are

Rigidbody
VRC Pickup
Collider
ObjectSync

[random sphinx]

and will the object sync script work for animated objects in the level too?

[stone marsh]

You mean objects being moved via an animation? It should, however, you need to also ensure you are firing the animation for everyone or whatever you're doing.

[random sphinx]

yeah like i have an animated car that drives down the street

[stone marsh]

Honestly, there wouldn't really be a reason to sync that if that's all it does. You would just ensure it triggers to all users at the same time and everyone would see it play out locally, but it would match up because it started at the same time for everyone.

[random sphinx]

what about for people who join at later times?

[stone marsh]

There are ways to handle late joiners, but tbh it's heavily dependent on your setup and how things are being done. Play around and see what works best for ya

[random sphinx]

ok cool i'll see what i can find out. thanks. one other question, how can I make a cutout mirror?

[bold ibex]

Uhm can i have some help all the objects dont seem to have collision wtf

[random sphinx]

do they have colliders?

[bold ibex]

how do i add that

are they just a component?

mesh collider

[random sphinx]

yes they are a component

doesn't necessarily have to be a mesh collider, could be a box collider or something else. depends on the object

[bold ibex]

a crap ton of objects

anyway i can make the colliders a BITTTT easier too ummmm

implement :3

this is my first time trying to make actual models

[random sphinx]

search your hierarchy for all the objects of a particular name that you want to put colliders on; select all of those objects; add collider

[bold ibex]

huh

[bold ibex]

ok

now im just getting instantly disconnected

this is amazxing

[stone marsh]

You can't just add a box collider to everything. If your meshes aren't, well, box shaped, you'll have issues. Objects with complex geometry need a "Mesh Collider" instead. Anything that is perfectly square and doesn't require the player walking inside, can use a box collider (Like boxes lol) balls or rounded objects can use sphere colliders

[bold ibex]

ye

dont see why colliders would crash vrchat though

its working now

[random sphinx]

using box colliders in place of mesh colliders is a common practice in game development to save on performance. but i am curious if this makes much difference for a VRC world. i'm using box colliders instead of mesh for many, (not all) of my objects

[stone marsh]

If your mesh supports a box collider, then yea, you should use one. But only square/rectangular meshes can use box colliders obviously, (outside of doing specific things).

Mesh collider's performance overhead is only from high poly meshes as it performs collision checks on every face. That's why when possible, it's best to use the Convex option as that bakes a lower poly mesh of sorts for use for collision instead of the full high poly mesh so there are less collision checks, but this is simply not needed in many cases, and in some, would just break the usage of the mesh collider as it wraps the entire mesh, ignoring fine detail that the player may have to enter into or through.

The performance overhead is somewhat minimal for most use cases in VRChat (because most people aren't using multiple high poly meshes) and it only has an impact when there are an excessive amount of high poly meshes with physics collisions.

Regardless, for his situation, many of his meshes will most likely need Mesh Colliders just looking at the scene images.

Anything perfectly rectangular can use a box collider however as noted.

[bold ibex]

yehhh

i used a bucnh of mesh colliders

im just testing stuff

button just toggles itself off

Lmao

[worldly hull]

can someone help me with my world? I tested it and finalized it and published it all working fine but when i try to join it on an actual client, it just sends me back to my home. without even trying to download the map. it cant be the spawns because they worked when i was play testing

[random sphinx]

i can test it out if you want

[worldly hull]

yeah

here

[random sphinx]

ok so i'm nearly ready to make my world public, but wondering if anyone would be willing to have a look and evaluate it first?

[stone marsh]

That's what Labs is for :3

[quick lintel]

How to make synced animation ?

[stone marsh]

When you submit a world to be public, it enters the Labs process first, where users can test your content before it goes fully live

[random sphinx]

oh. this would be my first public upload. so when users test it, do I get to speak with them? do I receive feedback from them?

[stone marsh]

It can take hours, days, weeks, months or never to get out of Labs. But when you submit a world to Labs, anyone who has the Community Labs section enabled can see your world and go to it.

You don't get any direct feeedback about this outside of going and sitting in a public instance and seeing who comes by and talking to them yourself.

Worlds that don't get any traffic may take longer to exit labs, worlds that are reported also will take longer.

Getting favorites and traffic will get you out labs. Ensuring you have a good description and take a good pic can be very helpful.

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrchat-community-labs

[random sphinx]

😢

[stone marsh]

Don't be dismayed by Labs. Labs can be a fun and rewarding process.

Many new creators may struggle to get out of labs, but if you keep working on it, improving, building better things, you will eventually get out of labs. Some get lucky right away, really depends.

But the point is, when you do finally get out of labs, it can be a very rewarding thing, like a milestone you can look back on and feel a bit of pride for.

Just hang out in public instance, see who comes by and get their feedback. People who hop labs worlds tend to be more of the long term VRC players and (not always) but are more likely to be able to offer you information.

Good luck

[random sphinx]

thanks

[kind leaf]

There is no easy component to attach, animation syncing is done by comparing the animation state with local times and matching. You'll need to script it in Udon. NEET has a prefab on booth you can check out but I do not know if it is plug n play. Translate the description, and try testing it out https://neet-shop.booth.pm/items/3334984

[quick lintel]

Thanks gonna definitely chek it out

s there a way to change the skybox exposure with a slider on a vrchat level?

How exactly do light probes work? Do I just put one of the spheres in each corner of the room?

[kind leaf]

Depends on how accurate you want your dynamic light data to be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E0JXOZDTKA

[nocturne isle]

Cool, that helped a lot. What I can't tell, though, is what the white spheres are for

[kind leaf]

They are dynamic objects, he is showing you how the light probes work using them.

[nocturne isle]

Oh no, I meant the clump of 3 floating spheres in the middle

[kind leaf]

the gizmo? Its just an indicator showing the probe, and the yellow dots are showing you where the light data comes from

Yo Does anyone know how to set up working chairs in Vr chat??

Cause see I got these 4 chairs to choose, yet only the final one allows a player to sit on them. However I can't make it transparent so you don't see the chairs in vr like I can the other ones. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

disable the mesh renderer of the demo chair and you will no longer see it

[bold ibex]

how do i remove the screenlighting glitch for quest

xD

[bold ibex]

any easy way to find hidden standard shaders

[bold ibex]

how can i locate this shader

nvm

back to my original question what the hell causes glitcheness and right black eye on quest and dont say shaders ive removed every suspicious shader everythings quest ready

if anyone knows solutions to the quest glitching the hell out whenever i turn my head in the world

please ping me

and dm me the solution

[bold ibex]

still got glitchy eyes when i turn my head in the world

what

the actual hell

[mild spade]

You are on windows though. Didnt you say you see this on Quest?

[bold ibex]

i have a quest

wait

did i just

ahh i am way too sleep deprived for this

this any concern?

[mild spade]

I dont think that link is allowed here :0

[kind leaf]

Read tos

[copper cobalt]

Sorry

[bold ibex]

ok

so zero error prompts

all on quest

and now... still glitchy screen whenever i move my head :*

[ruby jay]

some shaders with grabpass can cause black right eye on quest

[bold ibex]

thats funny because i have no shaders like that they are all quest shaders... literally.... all of them and its not black right eye atm its just glitchy as hell when i turn my head but its not lagging because the FPS counter says 50-60 FPS

and now its just driving me nuts

[ruby jay]

you will have to explain what you experience as glitchy

[bold ibex]

when i turn my head ingame at the edges of the screen everything kind of glitches out like its elongating textures

especially if i turn relatively quickly/smoothly

[jaunty surge]

Where is the Content Creation tab? im not seeing anything

[silent plinth]

I have bit trouble with some world don't want to work for me and I don't know what to do

[stone marsh]

Yes. You're using the wrong version of unity. You HAVE to use the one listed in the docs

Oh looks like you changed versions. Didn't see anyone reply to that

[unreal leaf]

build setting is empty and i have the right version of unity and the sdk, as well as a scene descriptor. what could be wrong?

[ruby jay]

check console log for errors (red)

[unreal leaf]

ah gotcha

Error: Could not load signature of VRC.SDK3.Components.MultipleDisplayUtilities:GetRelativeMousePositionForDrag due to: Could not load file or assembly 'UnityEngine.UI, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. assembly:UnityEngine.UI, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null type:<unknown type> member:(null) signature:<none>

whats that mean

i've deleted and reuploaded the sdk a few times too

i've googled this cuz i got it earlier and i couldnt find anything

gonna attempt an assets -> reimport all. if its the UnityEngine.UI's fault that might be the fix

that worked, thankya

[ruby jay]

nice

[dreamy holly]

hi! is there an option to show current time in main menu or in game?
I've created a simple countdown timer but it does not update itself in the world so I need a quick solution haha

or maybe there is a quick workaround how to enable simple Unity countdown script to be updated in the actual world for everyone

[chilly hawk]

How can I find what is Quest incompatible? (I'm guessing my video player, but I also have several Udon games)

[ruby jay]

you must build and upload your world for quest, see the switch build target button for android

[chilly hawk]

Ah, maybe I misremembered them both saying "YES" before 🤔

I'll give that a shot

Looks like switching build targets will take a while 😅

[stone marsh]

You'll have to change all your materials to quest supported materials as well.

[chilly hawk]

Ah. Guess I'll see if my prefabs are already using supported materials or not.

If the workload is too big, I'll stick to PC-only.

Okay, just looks like a handful of shaders need changing

...I don't know what's compatible and what isn't

Found the shader - no idea what I do with it to make it compatible though

What I do know is that I need transparency. If that's incompatible, then I can give up immediately.

[kind leaf]

Standard with transparency will work for quest. Just try to minimize your standard shaders. Try standard-lite if you want pbr

The emy shader should be fine as well

[chilly hawk]

Re-arranging my world and making some expansion plans.
Do you know if the Quest would tolerate 8-12 games at once?

[kind leaf]

Its all about performance, you need to see your scene statistics and profiler. Optimize where you can.

[chilly hawk]

First world, so I'm learning everything as I need to 😅

Got 9 unsupported shaders, including the above one

I know I can swap a few with their 'lite' variants, but some are for prefab udon games

Left is standard lite, right is standard

Lite is NOT transparent, even if I set transparency to ZERO

Do unsupported shaders default to a supported one when on Quest?

[kind leaf]

no lite does not. Standard is required for transparencies(or another shader which allows them). Most of those work on Quest. Like everything else in life, moderation 😉 The only shader I see on that list that I dont know about is the Merlins emission video shader. I use Stadard-lite on Quest for video.

100% of the pool shaders will yell at you, ignore em all. Never had a complaint

[chilly hawk]

I guess the best thing I can do is set it up for PC and see if it works for Quest users or not

[kind leaf]

to be clear, the more heavy shaders you replace with standard-lite the greater the performance difference you will have on Quest. Try to save heavy shaders for only what they are needed on. Walls, floors, ceilings, barstools, anything not glass all can be lite. Prefabs should keep their shaders, the pooltable gets wack looking if you android it up lol

[chilly hawk]

Thanks, I'll do that once I've got this floor plan sorted. Trying to extend it enough for it to be comfortable with 40 players.

[bold ibex]

ok i cant even get a recording of my problem

the edges of my screen get elongated and glitchy when turning my head

ingame

but i cant record it because i cant see the glitch on a casted screen

wth is going on

how do you make iit so you can jump higher in a world?

[ruby jay]

transparency is very performance intensive for quest, that's why the mobile shaders do not support it

[idle jolt]

I'm having problems with two models I downloaded.

The first model works completely fine in Blender, but when I port it over to Unity the texture gets completely scrambled.

The second model has some weird alpha mask on top of the image itself. Even when I try to download the image with just color it still has the mask on it. How do I get rid of it??

This is the second problem. The left is with alpha and color. The right is with just color.

Does anyone know anything? Anything what so ever?

[chilly hawk]

Looks like a second layer for lighting

Don't ask me how to use it though 😅

[idle jolt]

I’m making a Star Wars world where ships will be flying by from out of render distance right past your head. How would I achieve this effect? As in, how far away should I put the ships from the origin?

[cobalt smelt]

I'm not sure what image editing software you have, but the super-lazy way to remove an alpha channel is to save it as a jpeg and then optionally convert it back

Otherwise, there's probably a function to remove it, or edit the channel directly in your image-editing software of choice.

[near escarp]

You can just use crunched DXT1, it removes the alpha

in unity

[cobalt smelt]

Are you asking how large the render distance is? If so, I think the default is 120, but you can set it manually by creating a reference camera (and setting your VRCWorld object to reference it) and setting the far clipping plane to the distance you want.

Do layers have any impact on a scene by default outside of determining collisions? Similarly, is there any issues with changing the default collisions? I'm trying to set up Wolfenstien3D-style moving walls, and figured it'd be best to set them as interactive, and the static world sections as environment, but I don't know if that'll break things, or if disabling collision between the two layers is a bad idea.

Even if you could reference me to a relevant documentation page, that'd help, since I couldn't find anything.

[near escarp]

For player collisions no, unless you chose walkthrough

[cobalt smelt]

I guess that is no as in don't change them?

[near escarp]

Environment works fine as well for what you're trying to do

But they can all be on default

[cobalt smelt]

Ok. So I can change a gameobject's layers, but having just tested it, you can't change the interaction between layers. I was hoping to disable the collision so I could make walls slide through each other. Guess I'll need to find another way to do that.

Any ideas for how to do that? Basically, doors that slide out of the way, into a wall. The problem is that both need to have collision with the player, and maintain that while the door is moving.

[near escarp]

i mean, objects can just go wherever they want, as long as they're not physics object, layers are irrelevant

[cobalt smelt]

I had most of them as physics objects, as I figured directly moving them may mess with player collision, but I'll test that and see how bad it is.

[near escarp]

They wouldn't

[idle jolt]

So if I set an object to be past 120 it would be rendered?

[jovial olive]

Why world development is so complicated on Linux damn

[kind leaf]

lol not a question I'd expect to hear from a linux user 😛 Unity has a linux distro, but when working with vrc content you use prebuilt libraries. Libraries built for Windows. Same reason why you have to use ported software or emulation to play games. I would just setup a virtualbox and build in that.

[jovial olive]

That's what I did but I spent the whole day troubleshooting and I'm tired now

[kind leaf]

reinventing the wheel sucks, you'll find a solution. When you have a perfect setup consider writing a tutorial and submit it to vrcprefabs.com 🙂

#user-support-old message

What do I do when the VRCSDK window won't show up? I removed the VRCSDK and readded it and deleted the library, and still won't show up.

[formal seal]

so when im on unity and i go to start a new project the location for it is user and idk what the location is in my files. could anyone help me?

[mild spade]

Very likely you have errors on your console tab or wrong Unity/SDK versions. Check the 2nd and 3rd pinned message on this channel for a guide on how to fix them.

[unkempt mauve]

Are you talking about the VRWorldToolKit?

[mild spade]

Yes That one

[unkempt mauve]

I imported it and that's not working eighter since the VRCSDK isn't working

[mild spade]

What Unity version are you using? What SDK version are you using? Can you show what shows on your Console tab after you enter play mode? ( i assumed you read the guide and error pause is not enabled) Also show the entire console tab, dont crop it.

[unkempt mauve]

I'm using Unity v2019.4.31f1 and theirs nothing in the scene as I'm making a new project.

[mild spade]

Did you import the latest udon#?

[unkempt mauve]

It won't let me enter play mode unless the errors are fixed

[unkempt mauve]

I have before and still didn't work then. I could try it again.

[mild spade]

Are the errors on the very top of the console the same? ( when you scroll up)

[unkempt mauve]

yes. all relating to U#.

U# is already there in the Assets, and still nothing... 🤷‍♂️

[mild spade]

Hm, try removing udonsharp and the asset that uses udonsharp. Reimport the SDK first, then import U#, then the asset that uses U# scripts. When you reimport the SDk check to see if the control panel shows before importing u#*

[unkempt mauve]

ok

Ah! I removed U# and the asset using it, and it works now!

But I didn't reimport the VRCSDK.

Should I still do so?

[mild spade]

oh. Try importing U# and see if you can still access the control panel. If you do, import the asset. If then you cant access it anymore, the asset has some faulty scripts/problems

[unkempt mauve]

ok

Yea, I had reused a C# script someone made for a game I wanted to test out compiled with U#.

As I'm not a coder myself.

[mild spade]

Oh, does U# do that? I mean convert C# codes to U#. I know Lox9973 made a script that converts Udon to C# but didnt know there was one for the opposite

[unkempt mauve]

Now that you say that, Umm, not sureee. maybe I worded that wrong.. At least I though it does.

This is the console after reimporting U#

whats a .meta file? Is that not important?

[swift falcon]

Hey fellas, I really need some help. I'm trying to upload a world as a surprise for my girlfriend, as our anniversary is on Tuesday. But when I hit upload in the builder, the "creating file record" process never completes. It won't progress, and I'm not entirely sure while. I'll post the errors I'm getting down below, hopefully it can help narrow down a solution.

[unkempt mauve]

Is there a unity package for auto fixing errors in a C# script?

[bold ibex]

hi

how are you

[small jungle]

They’re not important if you work alone on the project. They’re useful when working with versioning software such as Git which save an historic of everything done on the project, a bit like Google Doc. This error is probably due to a folder deleted from Windows explorer and not Unity’s. It’s not recommended to do that.

[bold ibex]

i published my world and i still cant go there how long do i have to wait?

[kind leaf]

you should have access immediately in the mine section.

[bold ibex]

it just keeps throwing me back to my home world but i see others going there

[bold ibex]

my other world did this when i first put it up but it like unlocked after an hour but this ones not yet idk

[small jungle]

Importing from Blender is not a smooth process, some Blender materials and shader doesn't translate to a Unity equivalent. When you open your .fbx in the Unity folder, can you see the Blender textures in it ? If that can help, this article seems to give good hint as to how export from Blender https://blenderbasecamp.com/how-to-export-an-fbx-to-unity-from-blender-with-textures/ There might be a bunch of Youtube videos on the subject as well. Good luck !

[small jungle]

Ok. There is a tick for textures but even then it's possible that you end up with a .fbx files with as many materials as the Blender files but appearing all gray in Unity because it didn't convert them.

[bold ibex]

I have that happen very often

[gloomy storm]

I'm wanting to start making my own world, a simple house home for myself.

Can I make my house in blender

and import it into unity

[bold ibex]

yes

[gloomy storm]

so a simple fbx will work for an entire world huh

[bold ibex]

yup

[gloomy storm]

Does that include things like terrain or should i be doing terrain somewhere else

[bold ibex]

Terrain like as a concept or Unity terrain

unity has a specific thing for terrain

[gloomy storm]

Proper terrain

[bold ibex]

But you could make your terrain in Blender too if you wish

[gloomy storm]

Which would you recommend?

[bold ibex]

and use particle systems to distrubute plants and rocks n stuff

The Unity way is probably easier for the beginner

[gloomy storm]

Which sort of beginner are we talking because I know blender fairly well

Not so much unity for worlds

[bold ibex]

anyone have problems with publishing world cause i cant go to mine it has 100 visits but it throws me back to my home world what do i do?

If you are comfortable with Blender particle systems then just use Blender

[bold ibex]

Make sure your spawn actually has a transform to go to, like there is a spawn dropdown in the Scene Descriptor

if it says " none" thats bad

make sure your spawn is dragged into itself

[bold ibex]

yeah there is when i test the world in test &build works fine

[bold ibex]

its been like 4 hours since i published

[bold ibex]

can you have a friend try to join? just to make sure people can actually get into the world

really odd whats going on

yeah one of my friends cant join but says there was like 6 people in the world earlier

[kind leaf]

want to post the link?

[bold ibex]

https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_2e17bf3e-388d-46f2-899f-3fc94b2e5468

i dont understand cause in testing everything is fine not on vr and on vr

[quasi tusk]

This is something a bit random, but is part of my world. Changed one of my photo to where it adds frost bite once you view the photo towards the edge, since it took place in a snowy theme world

This is my VR Ex back from 2019 as well

[kind leaf]

yeah no, open it back up in unity and check the toolkit world debugger. I get kicked back to home and my log spits out Exception - Object reference not set to an instance of an object. If the debugger doesnt have anything, and your spawn is correct reupload.

[bold ibex]

i have not used this debugger befor will it tell me what im missing?

[kind leaf]

for critical things yes

[bold ibex]

where is this debugger located in unity i thought iwas in the control panel but im not seeing it

[kind leaf]

https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit

[bold ibex]

awesome thank you

[bold ibex]

ok that worked thank you

[scenic kraken]

why does my text suddenly look like this?

it keeps giving me these errors in unity even though I've changed nothing

[manic sonnet]

Sorry to ping but I never solved the issue, I set the reference camera and everything, made the Clipping Planes Near 0.01 and Far 50,000 (the object is at 30,000), yet I still cannot see it in game. I could try adding it to the skybox but that wouldn't help with the particles which animate, that I don't think I can add to the skybox.

[scenic kraken]

I tried deleting the unity libary folder to see if that would help and now VRCUrlInputField doesn't show up anymore (all other vrc scripts do)

[fervent forge]

Does anyone know how to get the audiolink to work for worlds?

Udon Audiolink to be specific

[scenic kraken]

put the prefab in your world

[fervent forge]

I did, but I keep getting errors about a namspace not being found

It's not even in the scene yet

[scenic kraken]

try deleting the audiolink folder, restarting unity and then reimporting audiolink

[fervent forge]

I've tried that too, I don't know why it is doing this

[scenic kraken]

maybe try asking in the audiolink discord?

[fervent forge]

Oh, no links, could you DM me?

I didnt know there was a Discord, thank you!

[odd wharf]

gamer

[faint geyser]

how can i fix this
i have tryed deleteing reinporting the vrchat sdk

[near escarp]

Can you select this object and show your screen with the inspector shown ?

[near escarp]

you have unity console errors

[near escarp]

uncheck static

it probably gets dynamically occluded

[manic sonnet]

interesting, let me see if that was it

[near escarp]

Also make sure that your main camera is set as your reference camera in the vrcworld prefab

[manic sonnet]

yep it is

[manic sonnet]

Didn't work sadly

not sure whats wrong

[near escarp]

move the moon at 10000 and see if it shows up then

it might be a unity hard limit

[near escarp]

When did you last update udon sharp ?

[manic sonnet]

I figured it out, it's the skybox

removed the skybox and now it is working, don't know why and don't know how im gonna make it work either lol

It's not the usual skybox, it is an aurora borealis that animates

Is there some sort of layering feature that I can use? Does render queue have anything to do with that?

[near escarp]

A good question for #shaders

[faint geyser]

never

[near escarp]

[faint geyser]

lol

[worldly hull]

Does anyone know what causes the player to get kicked back into their home when joining your world?

[bold ibex]

Usually when the spawn isn't connected in the Scene Descriptor

gimie a second I need to get a picture example

[worldly hull]

The spawn is attached to the scene descriptor and the scene descriptor is in its own game object , when you try to load the world outside of a testing environment after it’s been published, it doesn’t even attempt to download the world. Instead it sends the player back to their home world instantly

[bold ibex]

weird someone else got this problem since the last vrchat update

maybe its a bug for the VRChat Canny then

[worldly hull]

canny? Is that some public beta

[bold ibex]

no its VRChats feedback board for suggestions and bugs

id write everything you tried so far, and a screenshot of your spawn as an element under Spawn, in normal mode and during upload phase just to make sure something doesnt dissconnect it during the build for some reason. Normal playmode dont count

ive had people fix this problem in the past by making custom spawns, so creating an empty gameobj and adding a scene descriptor to it, idk why it had worked once the VRCWORLD prefab was removed

[worldly hull]

Thanks for the advice! I’ll give an update later if it works .

[lyric acorn]

Is there a raycast UI event of the raycast hover-over of UI button/trigger/sprites/etc? OnPointerEnter doesn't seem to be called

if I need to build a raycast manually, what angle does the UI raycast come from, wrist zforward?

[kind leaf]

That is correct, so when you write your own raycast it should come from the player camera forward. Although I forget how to reference it, it's been a while. I dont think camera main works.

[pallid bluff]

Can you test objectsync in offline clients?

[tardy wadi]

HI! I have a world used for a VR talkshow and the Cinemachine camera system is now broken thanks to the new update... when activated player viewport goes crazy.

[kind leaf]

try setting the camera depth to 100

[tardy wadi]

Sadly no dice

[tardy wadi]

If anyone has any feedback I would appreciate it... I cant reach the guy that made the camera for me and i need to get this fixed before my next stream.

[kind leaf]

trippy, so what is the key supposed to do? Other than inverting your view.

[tardy wadi]

Oh I updated the wrong camera object

[tardy wadi]

That got it

[kind leaf]

🙂 sweet. Yeah the vrc cam was set to 100 so all other cameras need to now be 100 to work correctly.

[hybrid karma]

Anybody here use Unity and Blender that can take a day, just one day, to help me understand it better? My creativity is being squandered every day I can't make a new creature or level....

[fierce saffron]

blender alone can take months to learn, and potentially years to master, and unity much of the same. ur best bet would prob be to hit up YouTube

[odd wharf]

Getting one on one with something is rare. I got lucky but just mess with Blender, make simple stuff, make edits to existing things. Just practice.

Writing stuff down can also help.

[stuck reef]

Alright, so I’m thinking about making an avatar world, what would be best? Should I make a layout in blender?

[odd wharf]

For something basic you can just make some cubes in Unity with some free textures from polyhaven but if you want to put more effort into it then that is good.

My first world was made with mostly cubes

(actually I thought to make collision for meshes you had to make invisible cubes LMAO)

[hybrid karma]

You say that but if I had one person to dedicate just one day, I could indefinitely learn it almost immediately. I can't follow those tutorials because I end up getting problems that nobody else seems to get like when I first opened Unity, it loaded me into a Miscellaneous File, not Assembly.... After that got resolved, it was one thing after another so I swore off of tutorials for the simple fact that I can't ask questions or troubleshoot....

After I learn it, I would love to teach people to do it. I often join lobbies and ask if they know how and they say I'd like to learn it and I just damn near cry because I wanna teach them but sadly the universe hates me and won't let me learn this chit myself....

[fierce saffron]

in that case i would recomend paying for tutoring or taking a course, trust me, you cant learn both unity and blender in one day, its just not a thing

[nocturne isle]

I'm assuming that if I bake the lighting again it'll automatically redo the old bakes, right? Just wanna make sure I don't double-bake or something.

[kind leaf]

usually, sometimes unity has its moments tho. You can always be sure and clear baked data first.

[nocturne isle]

How do I do that?

[kind leaf]

the arrow beside the button you click to bake

[nocturne isle]

Ight, cool.

So it'll remove all the previous baking?

[kind leaf]

yep, press the arrow and it will reveal an option to clear baked data

[nocturne isle]

For some reason it won't let me build and test anymore. I can fully build it, just not test.

Huh, restarted and it works now

[cerulean torrent]

anyone ever run into this issue? Authentication, content manager and settings tab all show what they are supposed to but builder is blank. when i look at my VRCWorld prefab it shows a different unity version. will that mess with it ? i'm assuming it will, i've tried changing it but nothing happens and i'm at a complete loss after trying to update my world's SDK
~ Also i get 0 errors in the console
i am using the correct unity aswell as newest SDK

[obsidian bay]

Navigate to Assets/VRCSDK/Plugins,
select/mark all the DLL's (CTRL+A), right click, reimport

[cerulean torrent]

THANK YOU

[glass ridge]

imma assume no, but can i use probuilder to make worlds?

[cerulean torrent]

yes you can

it also makes building 1000x times easier

[bold ibex]

Because you FORCED us to use 3.0SDK for everything especially worlds. im at the PART where i need to do TOGGLES and i literally need to have coding skills to do this shit like seriously this is stupid. like this is first attempt at using 3.0 sdk for worlds and i hate it why cant it just be like 2.0 where i just click toggle boom done

[glass ridge]

aww less gooo

[nocturne isle]

So... something really weird has happened. I imported something from the Unity store, it caused errors, so I deleted it. However, all of the errors are still here and refuse to go away, even if I reset the program. Anyone have any idea what could possibly be happening?

[bold ibex]

to fix this problem you vote for 2.0 sdk to come back

[nocturne isle]

What do you mean? Is my world just completely screwed?

[bold ibex]

idk lol

just sdk 3 is stupid

like you literally need a brain

i was like fuck yeah this gonna be easy then i get to toggles n im like FFS

[nocturne isle]

I have no idea what the fuck is happening, but it seems to be something with Unity's own files, which is incredibly concerning.

[ruby jay]

right click the VRCSDK folder in your project and select reimport

[cerulean torrent]

So i had my bloom working before.. it seemed to work in unity so it looks like everything is fine but it does not work in game at all. anyone ever run into an issue like this? i change all my neon lighting to the water layer aswell as the camera i'm actually kinda stumped ??

[ruby jay]

look at https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit it can check and set up post-processing properly for you, identifying problemstoo

[cerulean torrent]

alright i'll give that a shot

[nocturne isle]

Doesn't seem to have done anything

[cerulean torrent]

That worked, i had no idea you could set up post-processing with VRWorldToolkit lool. thank you! :D

[ruby jay]

what other errors are there? try to reimport the udon folder

[ruby jay]

yay, glad it works

[nocturne isle]

Already tried reimporting Udon. Most of the errors look like something along the lines of this:

Something to do with "library", which I can't seem to locate.

[subtle crystal]

Currently working on a big project focusing on Liminal space ie the backrooms (but I'm only using unity to make the world no blender )

[sullen rose]

Is this the version that starts as a padded room? I poked a backrooms map earlier today in the labs that was that.

[jovial olive]

Interesting

[bold ibex]

hi one question how can you get into the Vrchat world building program ?

[desert python]

download vrcworld sdk from website, download and set up unity 2019.4.31f1. make new project, add sdk, add plane into scene, add vrcworld prefab into scene, open vrcsdk panel, and hit build and publish

[bold ibex]

it says that

[elfin verge]

the camera is messing up how do i fix it?
https://i.gyazo.com/85c1c2d6e1ed40c39e57ba783b319ec6.mp4

[mild spade]

Try pressing "f" to focus the object to the center of the view

[rich crescent]

hi, so im new to making worlds and i got this error thing. i have no idea what file im supposed to find

[mild spade]

What other errors do you have? (Try not to crop the console tab when you take screenshot, show the entire console tab)

[rich crescent]

oki hold on

maybe this has better quality to read idk

[mild spade]

The problem is with the "SimpleLightProbePlacer" script.

[rich crescent]

aaaaah

thank u

how do i fix that heh

[mild spade]

Do you use that unity tool?

If not you can just delete the entire asset from your project. If you do, you can try to reimport it from the asset store.

[rich crescent]

i tried following a tutorial so i think i have it yeh

:LL

i deleted it yolo

omg it works

holy shit thank u so much

its been bothering me since yesterday

[mild spade]

Oh. Np. Usually the "xxx does not exist" error means there is another error giving you that error, so you have to fix the other errors first.

[rich crescent]

aaaah

the more u know

and thank u again!!

btw, my lights sometimes like turn off randomly until i click a clear cash thing, do u know if theres any easy fix for that? or if theres a common thing that does it?

[mild spade]

Hmm im not really sure. On Unity? Or Vrchat? I know that if you have way too many realtime lights they flicker or turn off randomly, but your problem might be different. Sorry

[rich crescent]

unity

i have all my lights on baked

however i dont really understand how baked lights work

[desert python]

have you hit the “generate lightmaps” button yet?

[rich crescent]

thought so but ill get back to all of that once ive figured out if this works or naw

[hasty copper]

Ok... brand new user here (who's been slowly trying to learn unity), and I've attempted to start building a world via Unity Editor and the SDK this morning... and I immediately get this error when loading in the world...

Suggestions on sorting it out?

[subtle crystal]

yes

[manic stump]

I have seen worlds where players can enter something and be smaller than the other users. An example is a world where players can enter a snow globe in a room. The people inside the snow globe are smaller than everyone else in the room and they can see each other too. Would anyone know how this is done?

[kind leaf]

Teleportation and cameras

[manic stump]

Thanks, I'll give it a try ^_^

[near escarp]

If you've lost your files there's sadly nothing we can do

[kind leaf]

When the sdk breaks you don't have one error, you have many. Also, when you first import assets sometimes Unity will print false errors. Press clear on the console window and you should be good. If an error(s) remain let us know.

[manic sonnet]

I wont ping you this time, Ruuubick. The way I solved the issue of the moon and stars not showing was simply changing the camera's Near clipping from 0.01 to 0.3 lol

[muted panther]

my room was bare bones enough to be 3d scannable

and soon it will be a VRChat world.

[bold ibex]

what application did you use to do it?

[nocturne isle]

Does anyone know what version of Cinemachine VRChat uses? I had to remove it, but now it seems like I need it back.

[desert python]

should be able to reimport the sdk to get it back

[nocturne isle]

Would reimporting the SDK mess up anything?
Edit: Nevermind, got it all fixed

[muted panther]

its uhh an xbox 360 kinect

using scanect

[gentle willow]

this is sus

ima leave

[bold ibex]

oo i will have to look into it then thank ye

[bold ibex]

im making pickupable items and im having a problem you can pick them up but when you run in to them the collider is there how do you make it so you can just walk through it with no collider

[mild spade]

Change the layer where the collider is to "PickUp" Pickup layer does not collides with the player, but it does collides with the world so it can still stand on a table for example (if it has gravity and it is not kinematic)

[delicate grove]

is it posible to have a camera in a world render to the desktop window like the stream camera?

[nocturne isle]

I'm making a pickupable item as well, but for some reason it disappears every time I load the world.

[stone marsh]

If gravity is enabled on the rigidbody of the pickup, but you have no collider, or your collider is set it IsTrigger, it will fall through the world.

[nocturne isle]

Oh yeah, I didn't add a collider, duh

[muted panther]

also if you need a key for the 200 dollar license for it I got one

[nocturne isle]

If I set the grip to the object itself, can it pretty much be grabbed anywhere?

[chrome juniper]

but how do I report on it?

[coral magnet]

You're in the right place! 😄 Report 'em here, is what kev meant.

[stone marsh]

What shader are you using?

You could probably just have used the Standard Shader.

Looks like a shadow pass/Zwrite issue.

Standard supports lighting and can of course have a texture on it as well.

[chrome juniper]

ok then like i said before,the sdk control panel is gone and i don't know how to fix stuff on my console but that's just probably my fault.

[stone marsh]

Your post isn't making much sense to me.

But the standard shader has a spot for you to place a texture and supports "shading" You can also use Poiyomi Toon if you need really advanced control over how your shading/lighting is handled on the material itself.

The model on the left in your image looks like it has no textures and is just a new standard material which defaults to a grayish color.

[coral magnet]

Hmmm well like you said, the console is probably the place to look for what went wrong. Otherwise it's difficult to help

[stone marsh]

indeed. Hit clear in the console. Then attempt to enter play mode, when it fails, screenshot ALL of the red stop sign errors and share it here. none of the other errors or warnings matter, only the red stop sign errors. You most likely have a script issue in your project or are missing dependencies for a script/asset.

Ah, you meant normal map. You kept saying textures, I was assuming you had actual textures to apply to it. Not just a normal map and nothing else

You can directly set the color of the unity standard material by changing the Albedo color

Since everything is separated into material groups, there's really no reason to use vertex colors since you can just apply the colors directly on the material. Blender materials don't get brought over, but can be replicated in unity. The shader you're using doesn't work because it doesn't support normal maps, nor does it have a shadow pass like I mentioned which is why it's not writing to depth.

Problem is what though?

I have no reference to the look you're going for. only technical knowledge of the system you're using.

Everything that changed red, because you changed the material to red, is red because it all uses the same material, you have many materials on that object

Considering it's taken from a game, it's actually against the rules/tos so no..

[kind leaf]

9. No discussion of/links to hacks, modifications, rips, or piracy for VRChat or any other game.

[stone marsh]

Since you're taking it from a game, I doubt you have the license to use it, so yea.

That said, you should just try using Poiyomi Toon if you need Vertex color support

https://github.com/poiyomi/PoiyomiToonShader/releases

Fair, regardless, try using Poi Toon since it supports vertex colors.

The shader you're using simply doesn't have a shadow pass or support for normals. Poi Toon does.

It would be best to just edit it in blender so your material groups are correct then you could just apply any shader but yea

Like any other shader, Just make a new material, then set it up how you want. You need to manually enable Vertex Colors and set the Use Vertex Color sliders to 1 or whatever you need.

If you have any Q's about specific sections in Poi, there's a small (?) icon on the section, clicking that will open a tutorial video.

Poi also has a discord if you have any Q's directly related to the shader it's a good place to ask for help. But it's prob the most used shader in VRChat. Just gives you more control over your final look than other shaders. There's some others that may also work for you, but poi is just a good go to.

Hope you enjoy Poi, It's actually a really powerful shader.

You could probably change your shading in the lighting tab to "realistic" as well, it defaults to a toon effect which doesn't seem what you want

Setting both to "realistic" might be better for u but just play with things until you get the look you want.

[round arrow]

hi looking for a world maker or 2 to help with remaking a old vrchat game Steel ‘N‘ Gold we have a discord for people who would like to help or even beta test it at the moment we have got working guns and remade the map (missing some shaders)
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_3dd924e6-1a04-4785-b34e-82c04b0ea36b

[stone marsh]

yea, you can increase the brightness on the model itself too in the material lighting tab (min brightness) or by adding a matcap.

But yea, you'll need to setup your scene lighting and bake your lighting ideally.

you can change the strength of shadows on the poi material as well. Just gotta mess around in the lighting tab on the material. Have fun with it and def look up some videos on baking lighting.

You'll want to add a reflection probe n stuff to your scene too so you can pickup environment/sky reflections onto your materials as well.

[nocturne isle]

My pickup-able items work great for the most part, though for some reason the ones with mesh colliders vibrate a bit. Any idea why this is?

[chrome juniper]

is this what i'm suppose to do?

[stone marsh]

yea that works. So it's pointing you directly to the thing that's having an issue.

The script "ParticleSceneControls" is having an issue. It's located in your asset folder in a folder called "SampleScenes" in a sub folder called "scripts"

It seems to want the Standard Pack, which has issues in our version of unity.

You most likely imported this with something.

I'd recommend simply deleting it. Once it's deleted, you should gain access to the VRChat build tab again after unity compiles everything again.

[chrome juniper]

ok then i'll try that out

[chrome juniper]

Does that mean I should delete the ParticleSceneControl's script?

[stone marsh]

Yes, delete the script that it is referenced in the error "ParticleSceneControls.cs"

Some particle systems n things from the unity store often use special scripts that simply are not supported for what we do, and in your case, may have come from the standard asset pack, which isn't supported in our version of unity. I can only speculate where you acquired it from, but it's not needed.

yea, looks like it came from Standard Asset pack. Def not needed. It may have been included in a prefab you added or a project you acquired that contained old assets from 2018. Can only really speculate past that.

[chrome juniper]

ouh I see

[chrome juniper]

Thanks a bunch

it works fine now

[stone marsh]

[full sinew]

what is the best way to create a collider for a complex mesh

i tried to create some mesh colliders but they aren't working am I getting any settings wrong? (bare in mind this is an imported obj)

[stone marsh]

You only should have one mesh collider per object. In your screenshot, you have a single gameobject with a ton of different mesh colliders with different meshes set to each collider.

[full sinew]

how do i apply it to all of them?

[stone marsh]

You can mass select items by using Shift click or click n drag, then add component, mesh collider

The mesh collider needs to have the mesh for whatever object it's applied, also placed in the "mesh" slot in the mesh collider. You can see in your screenshot you have things like TNT, Sheep, etc. Example

If you have a wall and it's named Wall01, you'd click on Wall01, and add a mesh collider. Then in the "Mesh" box on the mesh collider, you'd add the same exact mesh that Wall01 has in it's Mesh Renderer

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-MeshCollider.html

[full sinew]

seems to work when i added them all in one thanks a bunch

[stone marsh]

Yea, it should always autofill the "mesh" slot on the mesh collider but sometimes it doesn't. Nice. Be sure to delete all the old ones you had in that screenshot. Glad it worked out.

[silent plinth]

probably a fairly common one here, but im importing a large unity project and i believe the previous user was using pro-builder to construct the map, ive tried importing pro-builder first then their package and after but the objects all just go invisible or have no mesh data

is there any fixes im unaware of for this?

[stone marsh]

Did you buy this from somewhere? Seems odd there wouldn't be dependencies listed, or that there wouldn't be a scene file or prefabs setup. Unless it was ripped.

[silent plinth]

this is a map made by another creator from a community im working with now, they just sent me what they had to make some lighting adjustments and such, i dont believe it was ripped as its for their club, there is a scene to load it all but they didnt seem to know what was required

or at least i wasnt informed, it seems like an older project too as its using 2.0

[stone marsh]

Cursed.

Regardless. If the meshes loose the associated mesh, you can just re add the mesh to the mesh renderer. If you have

Object01 that is invisible, click the object, in the inspector, under the mesh renderer, click the mesh box and select the Object01 mesh and it should become visible.

Sdk2 shouldn't really be used anymore. It was probably made using a different version of unity and a different version of probuilder. The person who made it should know this, which is one reason why I asked if it was ripped.

[silent plinth]

yeah i assumed it was using an older version of unity when i saw the 2.0.

im not sure if this matters at all but when i import the package without using any pro-builder the mesh is all there

but the moment its imported it just disappears without a trace

and even if the mesh renderer knows what mesh its using, there is no data for it

remains at 0 verts

[stone marsh]

I mean. Then don't import it. If you're just editing lighting there's no need. Probably was made using a different version of pro builder and unity. Too tired to speculate further. Good luck

Make sure it has a material on it too other than the pro builder material

But yea. If you're not actually building it, just don't import pro builder at all, or ask the person who made it what version of everything you need to be using.

[silent plinth]

well the lighting was the basics of the edits i will be doing further changes, i appreciate the help regardless, if i encounter any further issues ill try some of the neat tricks or find the older version

What do you all do for Grass and or Trees? I assume you don't model it and paste it everywhere. Looking for some assistance in that area.

[uneven trail]

Am I able to add scripts to my world/shaders? Or does it all have to be specific things?

[bold ibex]

anyone have a link to a quest media player that can play youtube it exists ive seen it one i can put in my world?

[short forum]

You cannot use custom monobehavior scripts. You have to use udon for scripting.

And to answer your previous question, use unitys terrain editor and you can paint grass/trees so long as you got the models for them.

Hello. Newbie here, uploading first world. Didn't work - I kept falling through the floor on the test build. So I made a new scene with nothing but a floor from the sample kit, and attached it to the VRCWorld Element 0, but I still fall.

[uneven trail]

Models? Or images?

[earnest yarrow]

[short forum]

Grass is usually painted using a 2d texture while the trees are painted with models

[earnest yarrow]

I don't even see the world, just the loading screen flashing

[short forum]

Well for your falling through the world, you have to use a collider for the floor, or youll fall through it

And you dont have to do a build and upload, you can just use build and test and it will run locally on your machine.

[earnest yarrow]

The floor already has a mesh collider, and I even added a box collider for good measure

I did do a build and test

[short forum]

Is the physics for the models set to the default layer?

[earnest yarrow]

Yes

[short forum]

Build and test will not upload on your account. You have to close out of the player and do another build and test.

Is the physics matrix properly imported?

[earnest yarrow]

Now you have lost me

[short forum]

When you first went into the console, it should of said that vrc physics had to be imported

[earnest yarrow]

I imported everything it suggested

[short forum]

Have any build errors?

[earnest yarrow]

No. It's nothing but a VRC floor.

When you say close out of the player..I have to close out of it when I'm falling anyway..does that not count as closing out?

[short forum]

Where is your vrcworld prefab located at?

[earnest yarrow]

0,0,0

I even tried the VRC sample scene but I don't even see the environment as I'm falling..it doesn't even get that far

[honest scarab]

anyone know wut layers the vrc hud like menu and stuff be on to can toggle it off in mirror

[short forum]

Should be the UI layer

[honest scarab]

i dun think it that cuz it still appear when it off

[short forum]

Let me see what the inspector for the plane looks like

[short forum]

For a HQ mirror, i turn off UI and playerlocal i believe. Send me that list and ill tell you exactly what i turn off

[earnest yarrow]

I tried a cube but that didn't work either.

It's like I'm not even getting into the world to fall, I should be able to see the skybox at least..

[uneven trail]

So VRC is fine using Unity Terrain editor? I was looking at a tool that's a grass shader ( Generates Grass basically and what not ) I assume it won't work?

[short forum]

Shaders are... a bit different. It might work or not. But yes, i use the terrain editor all the time, just using the default shaders with unity though

[stable crater]

does someone know a good system to make animals walk around in vrchat (cats) or fishes in water?

[short forum]

At this point i am unsure, besides making sure that your vrcsdk is up to date, reimporting it, creating a new project, ect.

[honest scarab]

i had local off as well but it stopped appearing once turned off reversed layers

but are they supposed to be off i dunno really their importance

[short forum]

It helps a tad for performance and it just doesnt render those layers in a mirror. Some are unused or not visible but can still be rendered by the mirror.

[honest scarab]

so turning them off in mirror does it have any bad effect on optimization?

[short forum]

No it helps

[honest scarab]

aah oki ty

[earnest yarrow]

Yes I already did all those things before asking for help, thanks anyway

Does anyone know where to find good Star Wars themed sky boxes?

Is it possible to use a model with the grass ( Terrain editor )?

[cerulean echo]

@earnest yarrow the floor object is the floor you useng for yor floor right? if so its logical tha you falling down you useng yor floor for the spawn you spawning in to yor floor.or you use the vrcworld for yor spawn or you make an empty object and make that yor spawn point and do it over the floor so you spawn on the floor so you dont fall down

[uneven trail]

Also is it easy to do?

[short forum]

Yes you can. Just put it in as a tree paint instead of grass detail. But grass details are more optimized

And yes super easy. Just click on the tree symbol in the inspector, click new, put the prefab in there, then hit done. Then you will literally just paint them on the terrain

[subtle crystal]

Does anyone know how to remove nameplates for your world?

[hazy pebble]

idk if that's allowed by TOS, but if it is: one way of doing it is to have an udon script to follow people's heads with a cube, and put a nameplate hiding shader on that cube. Or apply the shader to the entire world, but that's probably bad for performance and likely has side effects.

@subtle crystal

,

I'm having a problem with a pickupable mirror. It's dimensions get distorted as I move it around.
I've had this issue before, I don't really know how it happens or how to fix it?

[narrow adder]

Quick question for world builders, Unity or Blender? They both have pros and cons, but I was hoping to hear from more experienced individuals
