[bold ibex]

if anyone could direct me to a tutorial that would be a huge help, i have already installed Unity Blender , and sdk3

[bold ibex]

https://youtu.be/uLi52YrrDmY this should work maybe

Thank you!

making an upload to Quest as opposed to PC is just a matter of being in the Android build project when you upload, rather than the Windows build project

you can switch between the 2 in the VRCSDK Builder Control Panel

or the traditional Unity way in File>Project settings I think

Ah, so its fairly similar to making avatars in that way

really not that different reguaridng upload process

its more simple tbh

mmm

i reccomend using an empty gameobject for spawn idk if the turorial does that

spawn and the object u put the scene descriptor on

alr, thx

hey

what version of unity is Vr Chat running on currently

[bold ibex]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/current-unity-version

[cobalt smelt]

I need to create particles for a particle system that loop through an animation (31 different frames of animation on a sprite sheet) before disappearing. I had originally tried to do it using a custom shader, but since shaders don't have access to the time a specific object has existed, that won't work. How would I go about achieving this?

[queen fox]

Does anybody have any Idea why unity would merge two projects together, I just opened up my SDK 2 world with a ton of errors after a while I realize there was two asset folders with my SDK 3 world. But after deleting the SDK 3 world assets it worked perfectly fine. I do have backups of these worlds, Its just a strange occurrence I can't explain

[jolly pond]

Is there an updated list of layers somewhere? http://vrchat.wikidot.com/worlds:layers

[stone marsh]

Nothing has changed except Reserved 2 is now used internally for the new UI but you shouldn't be using any of the reserved layers anyways so everything else is the same.

[pulsar cedar]

hello, how to add a thumbnail to the world in Unity?

[stone marsh]

During the upload process, you'll see a screen where you can add your world name and info. On that screen, you can see the screenshot. If you want to replace it, choose the checkbox to take a new pic, then go to your scene tab, and move the VRCCam where you want it.

[pulsar cedar]

yes, but how to add a custom thumbnail ?

From a downloaded Picture

[jolly pond]

ah, that's the only change I noticed, makes sense. It's mostly about which layers to ignore

[stone marsh]

Put your photo on a 2D Quad and take a pic of it during upload

Anything you do to your scene while in play mode won't save, including during upload. So you can just hit upload, get to the upload screen, click scene, add a Quad, create a material, place your image on it, put the material on the quad, then move the VRCCam so it's pointed directly at the quad, then go back to the game tab and you'll see it showing

Once the world is uploaded, the quad you added won't exist in game.

[craggy umbra]

Hi, does anyone have any prefabs for drinking games? Or like a card game prefab

[sturdy lynx]

What card games are you looking for? @urban epoch has made a prefab for free here;
https://vowgan.booth.pm/items/3403129

Ah shiet sorry for the ping

[craggy umbra]

Thank you! That's perfect

[earnest ferry]

can someone help me with this? i have no clue what to do

[primal axle]

Does anyone know where to find the VRChat client file? Cause I’m trying to test my game and I can’t find the file to let unity open VRChat

[bold ibex]

Why is it that if I make my own gameobjects with cyantrigger object sync works fine between quest/pc players, however when importing prefabs like QVPen or UKeyboard (world chat) it only syncs amongst players on the same platform, quest users cannot see pc users holding a pen/drawing with it & they can't see the world chat being updated unless they're on the same platform. Both of my pc/quest projects are identical

So is there any normal people here who have a life outside of virtual reality who’s down to socialize and get to know each other? Looking for friends for VRchat 18+

[misty wave]

So my world is about ~25% larger than I want it to be in terms of Physical scale. Like the chairs, the counter, etc... say the counter is like 200mm but I want it closer to 175mm. I have UI elements, video screens, text, etc. Is there a way I can uniformly scale basically everything down without causing issues? Or am I screwed lol

[green lagoon]

make a empty game object at the top of the hierarchy and stuff literally everything into it and then rescale that object that contains everything

[bold ibex]

^ ig you could put every object into an empty and then rescale the empty to globally rescale it all (edit I was a split second too late on answering)

[misty wave]

ok cool so that should make it possible without too much going wrong? triggers and stuff gonna be ok too??

[bold ibex]

yes they'll 100% work but make sure to select everything on the hierachy including disabled objects that are present in the scene

[misty wave]

Slick thank you so much!!!

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/vfx/quibli-anime-shaders-and-tools-203178

Am I about to drop $30 on this

I really want a simple way to do anime style trees

and it's half off

[green lagoon]

that is not compatible to render pipeline vrchat uses

https://i.gyazo.com/2e61110bf8f8a5901d351b91cdf5e228.png

[misty wave]

oh maaan

VRC uses Built-in right??

[green lagoon]

yes

[misty wave]

Anyone have recs for an alternative? Or a path to go about it myself

[green lagoon]

what aspect of the Shader where you wanting to replicate

[misty wave]

Mostly the sort of cell shading colour effect on the trees

I'm recreating the festival scene from Your Name and I want to have nice looking trees

Right now the trees are 2d plates but it'll look wonky in VRC

[green lagoon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy4kQr82MaE

[misty wave]

Oooo thank you for the link, I've seen some Ghibi ones but I really like the look of the Genshin ones also

[green lagoon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPBX9kqcHzE

[misty wave]

I guess my question is how to ensure it looks right in the transfer from Blender to Unity? I'm still not ever very sure what's compatible with Unity

[green lagoon]

I just posted a one that's for Unity so that would probably cover info on how to do stuff like that

[misty wave]

Is there any way to check VRC compatibility though??? Like so often I'll get 3/4 of the way through these tutorials and then they'll be like "next use the shader graph in Unity" and all is lost lol

[green lagoon]

okay I just checked and they don't do any super complicated shaders in it for that tree

so no shader graph

like making sure you have nice like painterly Leaf textures is probably one of the more important parts than the Shader

[misty wave]

hmmmm okay I'll just have to spend a while messing with it, thank you for the input! The Genshin style one looks super simple so I'll probably try that first

[green lagoon]

cool hope your trees go okay

[misty wave]

thank you haha it's not urgent at all I still have so much to do

like

I've probably spent a hundred hours in Blender on the world so far

[green lagoon]

https://www.kenney.nl/assets/foliage-sprites

[misty wave]

oooooo that'd be nice especially for grass and leaves

that's awesome!!!

thank you sm ❤️

[green lagoon]

glad to be of help and probably for some of the far distance trees you could get away with them being 2D cutouts

but yeah like the ones on the stairs you would probably want to be 3d

[misty wave]

yeah I've yet to decide the exact scale of the whole thing yet but I'm thinking the ones where people will be able to walk are gonna have to be 3d but distant ones can probably be billboarded

Do you know of any free alternatives to Trace by Stickermule for masking? PS isn't as good

[green lagoon]

no clue

[misty wave]

Also

Any recs for sizing?

I guess most avatars are way smaller than I thought

Bc the counter is only like 130cm

apparently 130cm is way too high for a counter lol

[green lagoon]

I'd suggest just looking up like IRL sizes for counters

[misty wave]

yeah thats what i ended up doin

gameobj scaled perfectly tooo

[green lagoon]

& like the folks running around in really short avatars want to stay so short so that might be kind of awkward resize everything to be their height

but like UI elements to like turn on mirrors and settings probably a good idea to keep the short avatars in mind for that

[misty wave]

yeah the counter was just like 30% higher than it should be which made it awko

[green lagoon]

definitely could see how that would be awkward

https://www.dimensions.com/classifications/furniture a website I found that has the IRL dimensions of a lot of furniture

[misty wave]

Sankyuuu!!!

Any idea why an item with a pickup that has a chair as a sub item would just randomly accelerate when picked up and then appear exactly where it was before??

[green lagoon]

no clue on that personally

[nova beacon]

@tardy ridge We talked in Twitch a while ago sent you an FR! Also have an idea for a world I wanna share with you!

[bold ibex]

Does anyone know how to put the color/textures onto 3d objects you download from sketchfab? All of them are like just plain white objects.

[misty wave]

You'll have to add the textures to the materials once you import it - though I'd recommend the Unity GLTF importer

[bold ibex]

Thanks can u tell me how? Anytime I try to drag the textures into unity it won't let me

Also what is the GLTF importer?

[ebon linden]

Having a weird issue, new to me at least, where my avatar will randomly turn around exactly 180 degrees when standing on a platform that has tilted even if it only tilted a couple of degrees. Happens in desktop and VR. I've tried different colliders and objects for the platform it doesn't seem to matter. Curious if anyone else has encountered this.

[misty wave]

Any experience with liquid shaders for like drinks and stuff? I want to make a drink look like it's actually full

[green lagoon]

https://github.com/Dastmann/UDON-Liquid-Pouring-for-VRChat

[misty wave]

That one looks ideal, I was using a different one before but I think that's gonna work better ty

[misty wave]

hmmm I'm still having trouble getting it set up, anyone else used it before?

[misty wave]

ooo i think I got it

[sacred ether]

Hey guys! New VRChat world builder here. When I press Build and test in unity I go into my world on VRChat but when I take about 3 feet forward my avatar begins to walk up something like a staircase, there is nothing there and the only colliders are the floor and walls. Please help

I found the problem, A circle I am using is making a huge collision

I fixed the problem

[hoary schooner]

Tryna make 3D cube object with a different image on either side, how would I go about doing that?

[misty wave]

You can map each face to a different material or UV unwrap in Blender

Anyone know how I can set the material used by a particle emitter to the material on parent?

[hoary schooner]

How do I map each face to a different material?

[misty wave]

In Blender you would select each face of the cube in edit mode and use "apply material" under the materials tab

It's less efficient to do that than UV map though

[severe topaz]

the depth of field post processing in my world seems to bug out in VR mode, anyone know what would cause that?

shows like blurred lines over the eyes

[tardy ridge]

ummm, sure, you mean friend request on discord right? I have 100+ friend requests on VRChat and just complete lost track.. If you mean VRChat you can send me you VRChat username so I can add you instead.

[misty wave]

How can I get a Poiyomi shader to let baked lighting through the transparent parts??

[misty wave]

Ah I think I got it

[magic cove]

Hi , where i have to talk to build a work inside VR chat

Musical world

Thanks

[misty wave]

any idea what could lead to this? both are transparent poiyomi materials. Do I need to put them on a different layer or something?

[nova beacon]

I meant on Discord! Also sorry I missed you.

[earnest ferry]

I cant enter my own vrchat world i just uploaded did i do something wrong so yeah could someone please help me ive been struggeling with it for 2 motnhs now trynna fix it

[supple glen]

I'm having a major issue with uploading my VRChat world. I uploaded my world successfully and everything went fine, but when I open VRChat and try to launch the world, it sends me right back to my home world. It works fine in Build & Test though?

[supple glen]

The same exact issue is happening with me right now

[supple glen]

Fixed it, just delete the collider on the mesh for your spawn point.

[quasi tusk]

I havent experienced this yet, have you checked to make sure you have the updated version of Poimoi shaders?

If you need their discord server, let me know

Only other thing I can think of is in shader settings, there's a spot for misc. In "ZTest" make sure it is set to "Not equal" so the shader doesn't overlap. this whole world is using poimoi shaders

[sour scaffold]

Anyone know where I can find really good buttons?

[quasi tusk]

for some reason I added stars sparkling into the sun hologram I made, and its visible to unity, but when I log in with VR Its almost like its not even there

[bold ibex]

how did you make that star that pdope

someone help pls

[green lagoon]

checking the error message you have multiple vrchat scene descriptors so remove one of them from your map

[bold ibex]

i cant upload

i click it and nothing happens

[green lagoon]

and you have a broken Shader

you have a broken Shader

[bold ibex]

yeah i know that but when i click it nothing happens

[quasi tusk]

Im using a snow normal map while setting the original texture to 4% transparency, with panning speed enabled for the main texture

[green lagoon]

do you have any error messages in your console

[quasi tusk]

I havent updated my Poimoi shader to the newest that has the sparkle effect, so I'm doing it a more complicated way lol

[bold ibex]

damn ill have to try something like that and experiment with some maps in blender thanks

[quasi tusk]

I havent updated my Poimoi shader to the newest that has the sparkle effect, so I'm doing it a more complicated way lol

[proven basalt]

anyone having VRCSDK login issues?

[quasi tusk]

although the sparkle effect is more pixelated, so this is better

not that Im aware of

[quasi tusk]

This is all done in unity

[bold ibex]

yea but I can make funi vononol/cloud/grain/wood etc maps in blender and change them and see results instantly in blender instead of sending a map to unity every time I want to see it yknow

i can probably recreate the shader logic

the rotating part will be fun to figure out

nothing and still dont work

send help🙏

[green lagoon]

I can't really see anything wrong going on in the screenshot and where you able to upload a PC build?

[bold ibex]

no ima just give up😔

[green lagoon]

okay just wondering to know if the problems are related to the quest build or something else and you can always try another day

[pulsar cedar]

hello, how to add join text to all players if anybody joined the world?

[bold ibex]

So what files types do you typically use for unity? Running into the issue of everything I'm trying to use not working. I've found that .obj and .fbx files tend to work.. but also even these ones don't work sometimes I think it may be because the files no longer exist because they are too old or obsolete or maybe I am doing something wrong because literally everything I choose doesn't work lol.

fbx generally

what problems have you had with fbx(s)? wym no longer exist

ive never had that problem

if you are getting that its probably due to another error tbh make sure you read the entire unity console

[simple arrow]

According to the VRC Docs, I'm not allowed to use video players for quest worlds yet there are plenty of them that exist that uses video players for quest users. Is this a SDK3 thing?

if anyone has an answer, can you ping me when you respond? Thanks

[bold ibex]

I mean objects like imported objects. Everyone I chose doesn't work. Someone help please?

It says something like cannot read file or file is missing

[bold ibex]

The console error says importFBX warnings: can't import normals because mesh "default" doesn't have any.

Another one says mesh "default" has no normals. Recalculating normals.

this is the error message i receive when i try to import any objects:

[tropic cedar]

Anyone know what direction the avatar pedistal will show? does it follow the blue arrow?

[left rain]

extract the files to disk first, then add to your unity project

[left rain]

extract the files to disk first, then add to your unity project

[bold ibex]

To a disk??

[bold ibex]

There has to be another way...? Others aren't having this issue

[left rain]

unity can't find the file because WinRAR is extracting them to a temporary location when you drag and drop directly from the interface

just extract the files to the appropriate asset directory using windows explorer instead of using unity's project window

[bold ibex]

i understood what you said but not the second part. how do i extract the files to asset directory? you mean go to unity asset store and import them into my assets somehow? @left rain

[left rain]

go to your project on disk in windows explorer, drag the files into the Assets directory there

like you would for any file in windows

[bold ibex]

oh ur saying find my assets folder in my unity directory and import them there?

[left rain]

yes. unity will load them up automatically

[bold ibex]

if that doesnt work then import the obj to some app like Blender, and then you can export it and it should force it to have normal info automatically

okay, so it is essentially because i am using winzip? should i use a diff one and then i wouldnt have the issue?

[left rain]

most zip programs extract files to temporary locations on disk first, then copy the temporary extracted files to the destination directory. unity just isn't expecting that kind of input

[bold ibex]

i see i see. well i am looking for my unity directory to find my assets im not sure where it is but im looking...

i tried open file location and its not there so its hiding

wait im dumb

i found it ha

@left rain it appears to be working now. man thanks a bunch.

Do you guys know why every object is white?

[simple arrow]

👋

[acoustic vapor]

i imported a few meshes into unity, but I notice some things i forgot. Can I edit the mesh in unity itself? like making a hole for a window?

Or do i need to edit in sketchup and reimport?

Or do i need to edit in sketchup and reimport?

[acoustic vapor]

your materials are white/empty change those to add textures

[bold ibex]

how?

[acoustic vapor]

drag a texture to the small cube infront of the albedo

or pick a color

do that with the material your stuff is, or a new material and drag it onto the object

[tropic cedar]

Help! My world doesn't have mesh colliders. I have already uploaded it and it's starting to get reported....how do i temporarily disable it?

Help! My world doesn't have mesh colliders. I have already uploaded it and it's starting to get reported....how do i temporarily disable it?

[bold ibex]

just put mesh colliders on it and reupload it and itll update

[tropic cedar]

ok, it already has 4 reports tho, i just fixed both and im updating but i think i freaked out way too much

[earnest ferry]

how if you can help me (I never made a world really)

[bold ibex]

Where do I get the textures from?

[bold ibex]

Honestly. This unity program is so hard to use. If I were you I'd just import other people's stuff and make it your own way. This shit be ridiculous

@earnest ferry https://youtu.be/dpolR6NjNhw

[earnest ferry]

i had a world from a friend and put own stuff in it but yeah

[earnest ferry]

its a 2.0 world for me

[bold ibex]

Does anyone know how to download one of the common VR chat rooms in worlds you see. Like prefab rooms or worlds you can use? And where are the cats everyone has in their worlds where do I find those

[green jolt]

👋 Does anybody know of a good looking firework shader? I'm looking for one to use at a New Years event xXx

[earnest ferry]

i maybe have one not sure check messages

[earnest ferry]

does someone have like a beanbag to place in the world with like the movement if u go inside of it it moves with the dymanic bones?

[static epoch]

how do i make it so my props dont fall through the floor

[storm badger]

Is there a simple way in Udon to get a count of all GameObjects with a specific name or tag?

I can't seem to find any equivalent to GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag with spacebar search in the graph editor...

[earnest ferry]

tried it but still doesnt work

[static epoch]

actually, how do i even make pick up able props

[storm badger]

Add the VRC Pickup component to the object you want to be a pickupable prop.

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrc_pickup

For global pickups, be sure to add an empty Udon script and set the Sync Method property to Continuous.

[static epoch]

do i need to add a program source?

[storm badger]

no

[static epoch]

okay thanks a lot!

[storm badger]

For making sure your pickups don't fall through the floor, make sure they also have a collider component (for pickups, a box collider is usually fine)

[static epoch]

Okay, thanks

[storm badger]

Glad I could help!

[devout musk]

Hi
Just a little question. I have an issue i did NEVER run into before.
I wanted to upload my world and the SDK said that i can´t upload the world since its bigger than 100MB.
What???
On Quest its 50MB and on PC is no hardcap at all.
What is this message supposed to be? O.o

The World is for PC and i uploaded like 20 Maps before, each bigger than 100 MB, so i don´t get it...

[bold ibex]

@storm badger do u know how I resolve my texture thing? When I import objects into my world they're always white how do I get the textures on em?

[devout musk]

Do you have separate Textures or are they embedded in the Materials?

[devout musk]

Its not a fix every time but there are 2 options i know of.

• Click the object you imported in the project Tab and go to the inspector to the material Tab. There you have option 1. "Extract Textures". After you did that the textures appear.
• Click the object you imported in the project Tab and go to the inspector to the material Tab. There you have also option 2. "Extract Materials". The materials will appear in the Folder of the object or a folder you have chosen. Then you can change the Textures on the material of the object. But for that you need separate Textures, like in a extra Folder.

[bold ibex]

I will try this thank you

[median junco]

anyone got examples or info on how to achieve something like the MMD dance worlds do? I want to sit on a chair and have it 100% control the players animations until he respawns but im struggling with it a bit, only some bones are animating while hands/head or whatever stays weird

the 3.0 sdk for worlds doesnt have animation tracking control like the avatars do so im a little lost

[devout musk]

your welcome. i hope it helps 🙂

[faint geyser]

how can i make a gun in SDK2

[bold ibex]

Anyone know where to get the proper mirrors? Apparently the ones in the VRchat/sdk are out dated. Also, how do you make it so the VRchat chairs aren't poking thru furniture/showing?

[devout musk]

I use the mirrors in the SDK they work fine. Each chair has 5 or so child object. 2 of them have the name "ChairBase" and "ChairBack" or something like that. Klick them and uncheck the mark at the "Mesh Renderer" in the Inspector.

[bold ibex]

Okay thank you. And 2 separate people have told me somethings off with my mirrors they say their frames drop and they start to lag when looking at the mirror but when they look away they are fine o_O

@devout musk mine say vrc chair udon, seat, and exit...

[misty wave]

Hmmm this has happened to me a couple of times so I'm wondering if I'm doing something very wrong with settings, for transparent glass like materials is there a particular preset you think is ideal? I would be interested in joining the server - my shader version is quite recent though, probably not the newest but only a month or two old

[misty wave]

I'll give that a shot, maybe that's it - thank you!

[waxen hazel]

What if a button that can enable all avatars at once was added

[lapis willow]

Hey all. I can't seem to get post processing volume working in my project. I've set the volume box, added effects, set it to post processing layer, added the post processing component to VRCWorld camera and put that on the post processing layer, but it still is not working. Ideas?

[wraith pier]

Okay very dumb noob unity question: what would be the best way to place 2D images into your world?

[lapis willow]

i have limited knowledge, but I'd guess plane and put picture onto it like a texture. Can use UV Editor to match the picture to plane size

[green lagoon]

I would suggest using a quad cuz that literally only two triangles but the plane uses more and then you could resize the quad to fit the aspect ratio of the picture

[lapis willow]

Scene vs Game. Game tab seems to show all the edits I've made, but when i play through cyan or build and test, the post processing isn't there.

[near escarp]

https://gitlab.com/s-ilent/SCSS/-/wikis/Other/Post-Processing

[lapis willow]

oh... post processing stack v2.. that was my problem i guess. Didn't have that.

[frigid void]

good day ladys and gentleman, im going to run a playtest for a Dead by daylight kidisch game in 2 hours to see if the balancement works fine and to see if we stumbol over a few more bugs i might have overlooked. if someone is interested dm me ya vrc name and i will look from there. (expectations should be keept low)

[polar jetty]

Is there a way to login to the sdk with my oculus account instead of my vrchat account?

[molten void]

You need a vrchat account to have the required trusted status to upload avatars or worlds

Anyone know the process of adding doors to teleport to rooms, however keep the rooms from being noclipable? I tried to move the room out a good distance away, however my game crashes big time on play test

[polar jetty]

so is there not a way to transfer data between accounts? if not thats fine i just dont want to have to put a bunch of hours in again before i can do anything if I've already been playing for a while

[molten void]

There is a way to merge your vrchat and occulus accounts... i believe

[green lagoon]

have the rendering for the rooms be locally turned off until you hit the teleport button

[green lagoon]

https://help.vrchat.com/hc/en-us/articles/360062659053-I-want-to-turn-my-Steam-Oculus-or-Viveport-account-into-a-VRChat-account#:~:text=Please log into VRChat with,screen to link your accounts.

[polar jetty]

thank you!

[molten void]

Oh lord, yet another thing i've gotta learn. Ty ty

[green lagoon]

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

a tutorial on how to toggle objects in udon

[molten void]

I've got the object toggling down, i've just never heard of rending toggling before now

[green lagoon]

disabling the object would also work

like make sure all the contents of the room are parented to a single object then you can disable that object and then the whole room go poof

[molten void]

😮 I love How simple that sounds, however wouldn't that mess with baked lighting?

[green lagoon]

you would have the room on while you bake the lighting

[molten void]

duh Lmfao.. thank you, didn't register that

[green lagoon]

it ok

[worldly hull]

is it possible to have friends join your world without having to wait a week to upload it on community labs?

[green lagoon]

yeah you're able to invite folks to the map

[polar jetty]

I've uploaded my first world to vrchat for the quest, but I can't seem to find it. I don't see a "mine" section in the worlds menu

[bold ibex]

is there a way to undo baked lighting when i did it it kind of broke my world

[polar jetty]

Update: the world is showing on pc but as a quest only world but still unable to see it in the quest itself

[lunar sedge]

unity freezes when i hit builder tab in vrchat sdk menu

[bold ibex]

I have a problem with my world where my file seem to not let me test it but i logged in and out and i got a new pc but i transferred my data from my old pc to my new pc, and now my sdk is not allowed to build or test

[warm bear]

triggers don't work in vrchat, but works in cyanemu, anyone know of a fix?

[mild spade]

is it UI? Or how does the trigger gets activated? Could be a layer issue. I know that colliders dony block Ui interactions on cyanemu but on vrc they do.

[warm bear]

yeah its ui

does trigger not work with ui?

thats odd even if you set it to "Is trigger" ? well let me test

[mild spade]

I mean like if you put a collider in front of a UI, it will not block interacting with it (cyanemu). But on VRchat the collider does blocks the interaction, so maybe there is a collider blocking the raycast to the UI, but on cyanemu that gets bypassed.

[warm bear]

yeah i see what you mean, but thats odd i don't see any invisible collider infront of the ui either other than the box itself for the trigger

[mild spade]

hmm Is the scale of the Ui uniform? like X 2, Y2, Z0.001?

I have seen issues where if the scale is not the same on all axis, on the game the collider gets to be on a strange shape blocking the UI interaction

[rough hinge]

Does anyone know why my post processing effects are greyed out? I have everything set up correctly (on the water layer) but I can't seem to edit anything in the effects.

Just tried the environment layer, same result

[warm bear]

@mild spade oh thats weird, ui trigger collider does work, but you have to open the menu

do you know a way around this?

[mild spade]

Hmm What layer is that interaction collider? I know that if you put a UI (like with canvas) on UIMenu layer, you can only interact with it when you open the menu

[rough hinge]

Ok it seemed to have fixed itself somehow

[nocturne jungle]

My SDK menu has disappeared mid world creation in unity

[warm bear]

oh yeah, i put it in the canvas, am i not supposed to do that?

[nocturne jungle]

?

[misty wave]

Anyone have a rapid flowing water shader or asset? I want to recreate this preferably in Unity but I'm considering just doing it in Blender

[mild spade]

It should be fine. I did a quick test and seems like if you put a Interact collider on UIMenu layer (12) you can only interact with it when you have the menu open. So check the layer your interaction collider is on and change it to something else, like default.

[nocturne jungle]

Someone please help, my SDK menu has also disappeared

[warm bear]

i shall take a look

@mild spade it worked! Thank you so much squall!~

Just putting this here in this channel in case someone else experienced it in the future.
Ui triggers does work normally, but it all depends on the Layer selected, set it to Default and everything works normally.

[mild spade]

Glad it works!!

[mild spade]

Standard asserts will give you a lot of errors with the current Unity version vrchat uses. You can remove them from your project

[nocturne jungle]

Thank you! Im a noob when it comes to Unity lol

Youtube tutorials have carried me to where i am now lol

[mild spade]

Oh, maybe it was an old tutorial, since standard assets was supported with the old Unity vrchat used a while back.

[nocturne jungle]

Well what was weird that that the error came practically out of no where, i was just resizing an object

[stiff solar]

I have question. How do you add and set up vehicles in a VRC world, specifically vehicles the player can ride on and use.

[quasi tusk]

So expensive 💀

looking for tools to help make terrain

[nocturne jungle]

does anyone have a premade LQ and HQ mirror prefab

Because ima hurt myself lmao

[nocturne jungle]

There is %100 free ones, used em before

[devout musk]

Ah you use sdk 3. In this case its "VRC Chair Udon" and the same component 🙂

[misty wave]

Any recs for alternate tree shaders for Unity/VRC?

Specifically to get like a toon shade effect

[bold ibex]

Ty I'll try

[bold ibex]

i try do this none stop and it does not work. https://gyazo.com/84beb25b45911cc18b0bc5e691600e1e
this is the blender I am useing blender-2.93.5

[pulsar cedar]

hello, where i can find "eatable chips" food for unity?

[manic ermine]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTP-eIkYLZh7pDhpO-untxy1zbuoiqdzVP2z5-vg_9ijBW7k8ZC9VP6cVL-ct5yKrySPBPJ6V2ymlWS/pubhtml#

Here a bunch of prefabs

I believe the chips one is there as well

[jovial sorrel]

Anyone know why build and publish not working and no error?

[lunar barn]

mine wasnt working so i updated the sdk and it started working again

is the way to add jumping different now?

[jovial sorrel]

Yeh. My sdk on a project got removed from the bar on the top so i dragged everything in a new project with a new sdk update and it wont publish the world

[magic grotto]

Hello I have a problem I can't download the unity version needed for making the worlds

[molten void]

Are you using unity hub? What do you mean you can't download it?

[magic grotto]

im using the hub but when ever I try to make a new project for the world I just get a error code and sent strait back to the hub

[molten void]

What is the error code?

[magic grotto]

not a error code sorry more like a message

[green jolt]

Personally I would use this to recreate that xXx
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/terrain/r-a-m-2019-river-auto-material-2019-145937

[molten void]

What's yhe message say?

[magic grotto]

Im very sorry but I was able to figure out how to fix it

[molten void]

Awesome, take care. 🙂

[magic grotto]

thank you, you to man

[pulsar cedar]

There is only fruits, but no chips

[cunning nest]

is there a way to revert a world to a previous published version?

[lyric acorn]

I can link it tonight, dm if someone doesn’t have the link handy before then

Actually found it https://booth.pm/ja/items/2657402

You can edit the mesh to be what you want, I put frosted cookies in mine

[sour scaffold]

Anyone know where I can find the Button models used in worlds like MeRoom and Movie and Chill?

[green lagoon]

https://booth.pm/en/items/1969082

[sour scaffold]

yes thank you (supposed to be all caps btw)

[green lagoon]

mostly knew it was that buttons because those are the most common buttons

[winter trail]

hello so i want to publish my world to private and idk really how to do that or do i need to publish it online and then i can make it private?

[pulsar cedar]

It costs 100 YP`?

[green lagoon]

yes

[pulsar cedar]

Thanks you for your help

[pulsar cedar]

ah okay

[jovial juniper]

anyone know to make moving clouds for a world?

[fossil hull]

There are different ways to do that. From what I know, you can have a skybox that's slowly moving with a shader, or you could animate it. You could also have literal meshes that slowly move with animations. Might be able to use the particle system for this as well.
I'd love to hear other people's advice though.

I'm going to hijack with a similar question. It's about snow.
More specifically, snow from a long distance. I have a particle system that follows the player already. How would I make it look like it's snowing from very far away? I feel like using a particle system wouldn't be very performant.

Or any other ideas to make it feel more immersive. I want to sell the whole big area look without exploding everyone's computer.

[green lagoon]

question is that full geometry trees in the background

[fossil hull]

I used the Impostor asset for those.

[green lagoon]

cool as no need to render several million triangles of trees that are only a handful of pixels tall

[sour scaffold]

How do I turn this into a VRChat mirror

[green lagoon]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrc_mirrorreflection

you would add that component to the mesh?

[sour scaffold]

I do that and it gets this issue

is it because its a curved mesh?

[green lagoon]

not quite sure as I've only would have had experience with the vrchat mirror prefab

[mental fern]

hey does vrc have a way to get the end of the ui raycast or like the mouse position or somethin? im trying to make moveable ui elements on mousedrag

[mental fern]

you need to add the vrc mirror reflection script too!

[frosty silo]

Yo guys a made a vrc world and I forgot to put the vrc sdk, so I installed it in my scene and then this happened

[mental fern]

i dont think vrc works with urp, gotta use standard im afraid

its ok tho you can easily remove in window > package manager and then go to urp and click remove

and then just change materials to relevant non urp shaders

[frosty silo]

WAIT

REALLY

[mental fern]

fraid so

[frosty silo]

nooooooooooo

[mental fern]

what kind of shaders were you using?

[frosty silo]

just the Urp

[mental fern]

for the materials i mean, anything fancy?

[frosty silo]

some water

who I think only work with urp

[mental fern]

thats ok you can probably take the images and things and make something akin toooooo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1TcVK46ToQ this tutorial!

[frosty silo]

bro I love u

If it do work I will love u more

[bold ibex]

yeah vrcha tonly uses standard

have to use those versions of shaders

[frosty silo]

I mean I don't want an interactive water but a kind of sea

[mental fern]

https://www.polygonalmind.com/blog-posts/creating-water-rivers-in-vrchat this one looks good

@frosty silo ^

looks like you essentially animate the texture tiling

[tropic cedar]

Can i get some help? I have a mesh that if clicked, should teleport me to a given spot, but no Interact reticle shows up when approacing it. Can someone help?

[lyric acorn]

Make sure the object has a trigger collider on it

[static epoch]

How do i make global props?

i don't know how to, can somebody please tell me?

[fossil hull]

You could make your own raycast to get the mouse position.

[rain zodiac]

Hi so I’ve made a world using unity and uploaded it but it’s pc only, how do I make it quest compatible?

[green lagoon]

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

[static epoch]

i attached an "Udon Behavior" script to my props and set the sync to continuous, but i tried to show my friends, and they said they couldn't see it

[static epoch]

i don't see anything in the documentation about it

either im stupid or blind

[stone marsh]

You need to give your pickup a VRC Object Sync. You can click on the add component button in the inspector and just search sync and it will show up. What you're talking about is for syncing networking events for synced scripts, not position syncing.

[warm bear]

add component Obj Sync

[static epoch]

thanks for helping me

just a quick question, how do i make something that teleports someone somewhere when they grab it

[warm bear]

are you using sdk2 or sdk3? assuming sdk3 cuz you mentioned udon

[static epoch]

yes i am using SDK3

[warm bear]

download cyan triggers in order to do that, i mean you can do it straight off from unity udon graph, but thats too high tech for you right now

[static epoch]

okay, thanks

[warm bear]

its free on booth https://booth.pm/ja/items/3194594

[static epoch]

so i put it into the project, but i still don't know how to

[warm bear]

if you are new to world making then you won't understand much.
Click on an Object that you want it to have the triggers to teleport you.
Click add component and add Box Collider and check mark "Is Trigger". Type in the search box to find Box Collider.
Click add Component again and then add Cyan Triggers. Type in the search box to find cyan triggers.
Scroll in the Cyan Trigger and click on Add Event then add Interact.
Within the Interact category click on SDK2 > Go into Players > VRCPlayerApi.TeleportTo
Place a spawn point in the scene by creating a Create Empty in the hierarchy list
Then throw that spawn point into the cyan trigger > interact box

the rest you will have to fiddle with to understand, such as onpickup or onentertrigger, those things you can look at tutorials on youtube

[sour scaffold]

CyanTrigger is heccin amazing

[warm bear]

i agree and i will recommend it to everyone including new users

the only issue is you have to have abit of sdk2 knowledge to use it effectively

[sour scaffold]

They have really good support in their Discord which you can find a link to I think in the README of the asset

[warm bear]

yeah what vizion says as well

[static epoch]

ooooh, okay thanks

[static epoch]

how do i make 2D audio that only plays in a certain spot

sorry if im asking a lot of questions today

[static epoch]

what does spatialization do?

i am very confused

please help me

please

[left rain]

specialization is what makes an audio source fall off over distance

[static epoch]

okay

i tried to do something with that but it didnt work the way i wanted so i didnt use it

[pulsar cedar]

can anyone help me with baked lightning?
I'm desperate because really, in felt every tutorial is that I have to press the "Lightning Settings" on "generate lighting" but then my point lights no longer works, everything is dark afterwards

[left rain]

ah sorry i misspoke, the distance falloff is more a product of the falloff curve. you can customize this if you want the sound to play within a specific area but not decrease in volume with distance

[left rain]

did you place light probes in the scene? you also need the objects you want to bake to be flagged as Static

[static epoch]

cool

thanks

[pulsar cedar]

How to set it as Static?

[left rain]

the very top right of the properties panel for any object will have a checkbox labeled "Static"

[pulsar cedar]

If i remove the Lights and create a new one, do i need to set a light probes again?

[left rain]

no, they're separate objects.

you would need to bake again though

[versed plover]

does anyone know why the "show control pannel" in unity option wouldnt be there anymore, i only have utilities and UdonGraph as options in unity under the VrChat SDK menu

[pulsar cedar]

it doesnt work, all is dark

[left rain]

did you execute a bake?

it should take a little time

[pulsar cedar]

it takes only some seconds

on the bottom right generate lightning right?

[left rain]

yes.

[pulsar cedar]

yes it takes only some seconds

[left rain]

are your light sources placed inside geometry? try hiding the geometry before baking and see if the result is different.

[pulsar cedar]

what do you mean with geometry?

[static epoch]

so wait, do you know how i make it so the volume of the music is consistent while still keeping the the audio within a specific area? @left rain

[left rain]

i mean, is there any object that's surrounding your light source, like a fixture? if it's static it could be blocking the light from illuminating anything around it

[left rain]

use a custom falloff curve, just make it maximum the whole way through

[pulsar cedar]

Its over a lamp but there is nothing else

But its only dark after generate lighting, if i create a new one then there is light

[left rain]

make the lamp not static, or hide it. then bake

[static epoch]

how (sorry if im being annoying)

[pulsar cedar]

doesnt work, i created new and hided the lamp and after bake its dark

[left rain]

change the Volume Rolloff option to "custom", then adjust the red curve so it's a straight line

[static epoch]

at the top right? sorry if this sounds stupid

[left rain]

change Volume Rolloff to Custom

then adjust the curve

[static epoch]

should look like this right?

[left rain]

yes

you may have to tell the VRC Spatial Audio Source to use the AudioSource volume, there's a flag for that. not sure if it's necessary here or not

[static epoch]

okay thanks a lot

[pulsar cedar]

do you have an idea wher e the problem can be?

[left rain]

sorry, i'm not sure. it's hard to tell... if your light is set as baked, and you have light probes, and your geometry is static, i'm not sure why you wouldn't get any lighting after baking

[pulsar cedar]

Daaamn i think i have the solution, the ground was not static daaaamn im stupid, thannks for your help XD
I have an another question, how to set the world little more darker?

[left rain]

dim your lights? or dim your skybox's light contribution. or use post-processing if you're not on quest.

[pulsar cedar]

oh okay, thanks and sorry if I annoy you am quite a beginner, I have the bug when you look a bit to the side that objects disappear, how do I fix that?

[left rain]

i'm sorry, i'm not really sure what that could be but my guess is maybe occlusion culling? if you've enabled that, try disabling it. your settings might be too aggressive

[grim jungle]

im trying to make a world in vrhcat and when i build and test the world in unity my avatar is small as hell and the world is huge... how tf do i make mysaelf spawn bigger ?

[left rain]

make the world smaller. your avatar has a fixed size

[grim jungle]

its alreafy small af

[left rain]

have you tried a standard avatar? is your custom avatar particularly small?

[grim jungle]

nah its normal

[left rain]

check the scale transform of the world in your hierarchy, is it set to anything other than 1?

[pulsar cedar]

@left rain do you know how i can fix the color temperature after bake? before i have set it to warm color but after it changed to bright/white color

[left rain]

just bake again

[pulsar cedar]

Doesnt work

[jovial sorrel]

Anyone knows how to fix this error

[nocturne jungle]

When i added a VRC Pickup script to my pillows they all disappeared?

[nocturne jungle]

When i tested the world they did, they still appear in unity

[stone marsh]

Is gravity enabled on the rigidbody? If so, they Are falling through the map. You need to ensure the collider on the pickup is NOT set to "IsTrigger".

[nocturne jungle]

Ok, now they arent falling through the map. But now i cant pick them up

[stone marsh]

In order to be picked up

1: it needs a collider, collider just can't be set to IsTrigger
2: needs vrc player pickup
3: needs rigidbody
4: should ideally be on the pickup layer

Did you add a vrc pickup component to it?

[nocturne jungle]

Yes it has VRC Pickup

Heres the entire inspector

[stone marsh]

You need a collider like I mentioned

[nocturne jungle]

Adding it lemme see if it works

ok so that worked, now how do i make it so it doesnt float into space lol

[stone marsh]

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

You can have gravity on it if you want, you just didn't have a collider to stop it falling through the floor before

[nocturne jungle]

right

[stone marsh]

You can also turn gravity off, but turn on Is Kinematic, which would let it be set in a fixed point and not float

[nocturne jungle]

Thats what i need to know

[stone marsh]

I mean, it will float, but not like it's in zero G if you do that

It will just stay exactly where left

[nocturne jungle]

yeah

Ok yeah thats what i need

[nocturne jungle]

Awesome it works just as i wanted it, tysm

[lunar sedge]

could it be that having a 200mb fbx is whats lagging unity when I hit builder tab in vrchat sdk menu?

[bold ibex]

if its lagging unity DONT put it in vrchat

sounds like it has way too many polygons and blendshapes

[green lagoon]

and also that's way too many megabytes

[lunar sedge]

its mostly for private use
I'ma break it into chunks / look into mesh baker tho

[bold ibex]

Retopo that shi lol

most likely has a lot of uneccessary geometry

save yourself some frames to

[raw siren]

Having a issue with this button only working when i use cyan emu but not in vrchat which it works fine in other world projects

[mild spade]

Does the canvas has a UI_Shape? If you do, you probably have the UI inside the wall's colliders. Cyanemu ignores colliders blocking the UI, but VRChat does not ignores them. Try moving the UI a little outside the wall. If that doesnt work still, check to make sure the XY and Z scale of the canvas is equals (X0.1 Y0.1 Z0.1, and not X0.1 Y0.1 Z0.00001)

[raw siren]

okay thanks

first solution didnt work lol

got the button to work now gotta see why the cuttout mirror is blinding white

[mild spade]

What was the problem? if you dont mind sharing (for future reference) was it the difference in scales of the Z axis?

[peak prism]

Are there any world developers that world to help work on an underground night club with me. I have started a world but I would like some help with it?

[molten void]

How does one hide a room, like the private lockable rooms in some worlds. I want to add the same feature

Ive looked around a bit, and found a primitive solution involving just disabling the room as a whole game oject and adding a lock that disables the door.. but doesn't seem like how it's supposed to be done

[woeful tide]

How does one make grass/plants/flowers paints in unity where they don't moved around and stay solid

[opal sigil]

So hello i have a little probleme with my vrc world

So all the quest after like 10min on the map cant pickup no more object all the object have their collider or their sync , pickup script
But like the only solution its them to re join the world

[rain zodiac]

hey, im trying to build my first world and i would like to add some pictures on the wall, im wanting to add a photo of me and my gf on the wall in unity but idk how

[bold ibex]

-get picture into your unity project -spawn in a plane - drag the image from the unity project files tab onto the plane object in Scene tab - adjust scale to make the image look proportionally right

[rain zodiac]

how would i get a picture into my project?

drag it into here?

[bold ibex]

you dont drag it into the hierarchy

[rain zodiac]

or here

[bold ibex]

here

[rain zodiac]

aha

gocha

[bold ibex]

but you will create your Plane in the Hierarchy

[rain zodiac]

gocha thanks

[bold ibex]

right click in the open space and goto 3d objects and plane

somethkng like that

[rain zodiac]

apreciate it

[bold ibex]

np

[rain zodiac]

also the other thing i wanted to ask is lighting

[bold ibex]

if you want to maintain perfect proportions on the image you can put the width of pixels for the X value of scale of the plane, and height of pixels for the z value of plane scale

[rain zodiac]

i want it to be kina dark and cozy like in this photo:

[bold ibex]

idk about lighting i am plain and use directional lights

[rain zodiac]

and im not sure how to make the lighting darker

[bold ibex]

you could try a bunch of low strength point lights around the space

[bold ibex]

say you can have a mellow lamp 3d object, and place a point light inside every one if those

[rain zodiac]

like if you see here the whole world lighting is really bright

[bold ibex]

you dont need the 3d object im just sayig for example

[bold ibex]

delete the directional light

or set the intensity to 0

idk what happens if you do the second actually try it

and then if you want it even darker make your skybox PITCH black

you wont see your skybox ingame anyway telling from your screenshot

[rain zodiac]

how do i do that

[bold ibex]

i think its in Window> Rendering Settings

from the top white bar

skybox is like the first thing in the menu u get from that

make a material and make its shader VRCHAT/mobile/skybox and drag in a pitch black texture into it

then you can use that material for the skybox afaik

[rain zodiac]

these settings?

[bold ibex]

yup

[rain zodiac]

awesome thanks

also where can i get some good free wall textures?

for a cozy world

[green lagoon]

https://gist.github.com/mauricesvay/1330cc530f6ab2ef33eb6a5ea56ef5bd

[bold ibex]

https://3dtextures.me/ or maybe texturecan

[rain zodiac]

how would i download this and put it into unity?

[bold ibex]

ill let ye figure that out

[molten void]

😂

[proud tendon]

lol

[rain zodiac]

cuz the download takes me to a goodle drive

[bold ibex]

yea and?

[south orbit]

basicly create a material then put in the texture maps

[bold ibex]

download the files off of google drive

i know you are capable

[south orbit]

https://ambientcg.com/

here's what i prefer getting my stuff from, they also categorized

[rain zodiac]

dont i need asset files? cuz the ones on the google drive are just images

[molten void]

[bold ibex]

oml

textures are images

[molten void]

Texture files or images, applied to a material

Make an asset, which you apply to models

[south orbit]

textures are 2D images in which if u drag them onto a object u can create a material 3D out of them and then change the material to ur likings

[rain zodiac]

also how do i shrink it because the textures are really big

for a wall

[south orbit]

mess with the tiltings / offsets

[bold ibex]

are you using the AO map on BC?

[rain zodiac]

le what now

lol

[south orbit]

tilling *

[bold ibex]

BC=BaseColor=Albedo

[south orbit]

tilling and offset can change it like that tho, once u drag it, u wanna use the material and not the actual texture

[bold ibex]

all those slots take their own dedicated type of map

[south orbit]

here's an example where i changed tilling and offset to fit the picture into the frame.

[bold ibex]

u seem to got a Albedo map, Ambient Occlusion, anf some other ones i cant tell from ur screenshot but it says it in the name of the files in google drive

[molten void]

Wait

Oh you already described it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7IXxt4d8R4

[south orbit]

but ye as @bold ibex says prob better way cus it actually like layers it properly and gives u the idea of how things work, where as my solution is a temp quick fix to some things

[bold ibex]

you can still tile stuff

you should still tile stuff a bit anyway since you only got a 1k texture

not to the point where its like obvious its a tiled texture though then its not appealing to look at

[rain zodiac]

hey i really apreciate the help guys

means a lot

as this is my first time and have no idea what im doing most of the time lol

[molten void]

We've all been there.

[rain zodiac]

but is there anywhere i can get things like beds and tables?

[molten void]

Asset store has free collections

[rain zodiac]

there is only one ugly bed i found there for free, is there any more websites or is that pretty much it

that you have to pay for them

[bold ibex]

lol is it the one bed i see in worlds always

[molten void]

Yes

Lmfao

[bold ibex]

it breaks the immersion when i see that bed

[molten void]

It's so gross

@bold ibex How good are you at unity? I've got a question i wanna bounce off you

[green lagoon]

sketchfab also has free to download objects but with the caveat of the objects may not be design for real-time game rendering

[bold ibex]

idk you can just ask

is it about your private locked room thing

[molten void]

:3

Yes

[bold ibex]

if its that then id just suggest having a world that is soley for that

thats the only way to get true privacy

a world with a softcap limit of 1 person, and then u can hit hardcap by inviting whoeber the speciaal@person is

and then boom no one else can join

when u upload the world youd set the people limit to 1, afaik the hardcap is double the softcap u set on upload

[molten void]

Hmmmm

[green lagoon]

just watch that video it was pretty good and I even learned something new from it

[molten void]

That whole series is surprisingly good

[rain zodiac]

does anyone know where i can get some free fairy lights/christmas lights like this

[green lagoon]

https://www.patreon.com/posts/xmas-lights-32030551

[rain zodiac]

i have to pay for them tho right?

no free ones

[green lagoon]

it has a free version at the bottom

[rain zodiac]

got it thanks

not sure how to make them light up or have textures tho

nvm got it

anyone got any good reccomendations or places for free rugs/carpets for a cozy world? maybe something fluffy

[bold ibex]

there are shaders that are designed to replicate carpet

[rain zodiac]

oo?

[bold ibex]

idk of any names though

[rain zodiac]

oh ok

[bold ibex]

google is a nice friend

[south orbit]

easy mode carpet / rugs

get a prefab for it, find a 'rug texture' online, use it on the prefab

tho ye if u want that real fluffy effect its usually shaders, but i personally dislike them i mean they look nice but the issue is that vrc and such shaders usually are causing alot of vram to be run atleast to my experience.

[rain zodiac]

No...

i just spend hours...

making a world...

and my pc ran into a problem....

[scarlet moon]

Anyone able to point me to some good tutorials on how to get lights to match perfectly with your music?

[rain zodiac]

i lost it all

[green lagoon]

for next time definitely good to frequently save your project

[bold ibex]

Yah if you are going to make a big change then press ctrl+shift+s before doing so

[rain zodiac]

hey so i just publishd my world and i wanted it to be for both pc and quest but its only quest and i cant join it

how do i update it to be for both

this is what it says rn

[left rain]

generally you want to save a copy of your unity project, then use that button to convert the build target. you'll likely have to patch up some shaders or optimize a bit after the conversion, depends on how complex your original world is

[rain zodiac]

last time on my first world i did it was pc only and i just clicked the android option as shown in this picture

[desert python]

theyre on windows build target but uploaded android instead?

[rain zodiac]

and it worked on both

[desert python]

try reuploaded while on pc build

[rain zodiac]

wdym

[desert python]

build and publish again

[rain zodiac]

ok so on unity the bed looks like this

but on vrc it looks like this

i dont know why or what to do

[desert python]

close and reopen unity, look for if its on the android build when it reopens

[dim saddle]

I'm trying to install Android Build Support on my Unity but it's saying that the 2019.4.31f1 version can't install any modules. Am I doing something wrong?

[south orbit]

this is most likely because of unsupported shaders, try using different shaders, if its a quest world u must use only the mobile vrc shaders

[south orbit]

not sure what exactly u are trying, by the looks of it, it appears to only be uploaded for quest version, tho if u testing on pc u need to upload it on a pc version usually is what u do to begin with before converting it into a quest world, make sure u are using the same blueprint ID for the world for both pc and the android version

[rain zodiac]

i just used a bed from the unity store

[south orbit]

which probably has some shaders that u dont actually have or else the issue being that u are on quest not using quest supported shaders, i cant tell exactly but u can change the shaders to what u needed is what im saying, is not rly an issue of where u got the bed from or that it is a bed, it is the shaders

[rain zodiac]

so i can turn them down so they work?

[south orbit]

change the shader to another one

first of all

tell me are u on quest or pc

[rain zodiac]

pc

but i want the world to be quest compatible

[south orbit]

okay so click on the bed till u can see the materials on the right then screenshot the name of the shaders

so the pink / purple issue is happening on quest or pc ?

[rain zodiac]

i clicked build and test and i saw it there

[rain zodiac]

ok i fixed the bed thing

but dont know what to do about the quest and pc thing

[misty wave]

I would use a combination of fog and some billboard particle effects

[fossil hull]

Oh yeah, I've actually been trying that. I just find it difficult to make something that looks good. You can always kinda tell

The billboard is very visible. Not sure if I really need the fog yet.

I think you pretty much have to use udon for that.

Maybe you could try this? https://github.com/Pokeyi/VRC-Player-Tracking

[civic cloak]

hey are there any tools to world build IN VR?

[green lagoon]

you cannot build worlds inside vrchat world-building has to be done in unity so any VR modeling tools you use would eventually have to export to Unity

[civic cloak]

is that relatively straight forward if I were to do that?

[green lagoon]

I don't know as I haven't particularly looked into VR modeling tools

[civic cloak]

👍

[green lagoon]

what particular aspect of the modeling are you wanting to improve by doing it in VR

[civic cloak]

I'm new to modeling in general, I just haven't got that 'connection' yet doing it with a mouse, figured I could give it a shot in VR and see if it makes more sense for me

[green lagoon]

I would note you would still probably need to do work in blender for optimization purposes

[bold ibex]

I have given up on making a world unless someone knows why this is occuring or how to fix it: it has happened about 5 or more times now where u have a project and something happens like an error for example. I fix the error and my whole project is gone and there's a new scene like starting from scratch. So I have had to start all over numerous times. Why is this happening?

In Unity

[civic cloak]

is it suboptimal to model out a world in Unity?

[green lagoon]

Unity isn't modeling software so it gives you a lot less control compared to like doing stuff in blender but the probuilder tool can do some basic stuff which would be fine to make like a not a terribly complicated map

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLi52YrrDmY

a video tutorial series that would cover the basics of building a world

[fossil hull]

The code is pretty simple, you could add to it yourself. You could even delete most of it that's not about the origin position.

[civic cloak]

ty

[green lagoon]

probably would recommend for a first map you make to start with a relatively small-scale like a bedroom or a an apartment as it's pretty easy to get overwhelmed if you start with a Big map

[fossil hull]

Oh, but I'm not sure if you are even allowed to target a specific person in this way. Just so you are aware.

[civic cloak]

thats my plan

[green lagoon]

cool

[bold ibex]

Did anyone have this problem before? I can build it as a local test but I cant publish it. It says that I'm not logged in..... but I am. If any kind soul wants to help me then please DM me.

[lavish shale]

I want a karaoke world with songs I wanna sing
or yk
the ability to make a karaoke world that could play anything long as you have a link

or is there a way to play music through vr chat in some way without just blasting irl?

which of those 3 sounds most viable

[green lagoon]

you can just put a karaoke version of a song in any video player

[scarlet moon]

Do VFX assets from the asset store always work if it matches VRchats unity version

sorry for the tag but I know youll prolly answer rainwolf

[green lagoon]

honestly the render pipeline that it uses is more important than the unity version as assets that use the built-in renderer are the only ones that are going to work in vrchat Shader wise

[scarlet moon]

Right

👍

[white bison]

What would be the best way to UV map all my base boards?

join them all into 1 mesh by connecting vertices then lightmap pack..? or

oh so go to a world meant for playing videos?

nice ok!

[torn wolf]

Hello I’m currently following a tutorial on how to make Vrchat worlds with unity and when I imported the sdk file it gives me an error and doesn’t show up. If anyone is able to help and or get in a call to help that would be fantastic. Thank you

There’s an error on one of the imported files and yea it doesn’t show up at all

I’m unity hub it says 3.0.0 beta

[stone marsh]

Did you check the dependencies and ensure you have UdonSharp?

[candid pumice]

I also have a question about QvPens, mainly their syncing between Quest and PC. When I originally uploaded my world they were synced, Quest users could see what PC users wrote and vice-versa. After an update, they're now desynced and separate between platforms. Would fixing this just mean reuploading the world, or do I need to delete and reinstall the pens, or something else?

[bold ibex]

is udon sharp a package i have to download somewhere?

[bold ibex]

and im not sure what dependacies mean i just imported the qv pens and drag and dropped the prefab in the folder

not a clue BUT it has to do with a unity Canvas

not sure if canvases in your world just automatically 'attach' to any active cameras screen but this is experiementing hour eh

[dim saddle]

any know how to amplify voice for DJs in a world? Like press a button and you're amplified.

[bold ibex]

uh i need some help

when i try to publish or test i get a error sound

[leaden hazel]

I know how to do it for stream camera magic, but doing it to the standard camera is a bit different!

[leaden hazel]

Check the console tab for any messages?

[bold ibex]

you can email vrchat and maybe they could forwar you to someone who could tell you

email is at the bottom of #faq

[leaden hazel]

Hmm. I never thought of actually doing an email. If I can't work it out I guess I can ask. XD

One clue is that however it works, if you turn on depth of field it does sometimes cause the watermark to turn blurred as well.

Actually. Hmm. I do own the VR Lens add on. I could see if I can work out how it does its camera override as a clue!

[bold ibex]

a mystery ?

[fossil hull]

I have a pickup with a box collider which violently throws the player to the side when they walk off the edge.
This sounds like a very basic problem, but I'm honestly not sure how to fix that.

I'll try to put the rigidbody to continues and test it later, maybe that's it.

[west niche]

Aye shut up omega bot i'll use caps if I want to

Hi everyone, I had a small question. So I previously created a world and it would let me create a build to test it. On my second world, it won't let me build and test it. Is there something I have to delete in order for the button to work again?

[bold ibex]

im trying to get a toggle for a mirror and a UDON video player

since i dont have ana actual video player

it should all be setup correctly

but its not working :(

[mild spade]

Interact events require a collider on the object. If you add a Box collider it will work.

[bold ibex]

@mild spade do you know how id make a door open and close also how do i change the skybox

[idle jolt]

I got a question about audio and .wav files.
I want to extract a 3-6 minute audio clip from a video that’s an hour long. I want the clip to loop perfectly. How would I go about doing this?

[mild spade]

Door opening with a button? With an animation of a door opening? Or just disappearing after you click a button? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95jRByYHE4Y Momo explains how to do an animated door when you walk close to it. He also teaches you a bit about animations, animators and animator controllers if you are not familiar with them. Im not sure how you can change the skybox with Udon, but you can ask on #udon-general

[versed plover]

Is taking a screenshot, editing stuff in and then slapping it on an out-of-sight plane the best way to do this?

Or can I make a camera overlay (probably with a plane) that's invisible to players?

[urban epoch]

Anything done in play mode while uploading the world doesn't make it into the upload, since the build is done previously. Feel free to place whatever words or the likes wherever you'd like without worrying about it affecting the uploaded world.

[chilly hawk]

That's convenient! Thanks :)

[bold ibex]

Anyone have a quick Time to show me how i can Synk my 8ball table? Becuase i got me a good Preset with Udon skipts and stuff but the Problem is It doesnt synk with other players. Like I can Chose Player 1 and Can only Play with myself.

[mild spade]

You can have an Int parameter on the animator and each idle state can have their own transition condition ( ex. idle 1 Int equals 1, idle 2 int equals 2 etc..) and with Udon call a random int using Random.Range (int int) after a set time depending on your idle animations. This video can give you an idea of how it can be done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmrCUuwy-SE I could help you with it if you need help.

How I would do it is have a state that all it does is send an event to the Udon script using animation events, and simply transition to that state every time an animation finished playing (transition to it, no condition have exit time of 1) Then on that udon event that gets called I can set a new random int to play and so on. Maybe there is a different and better way

I believe I have the right channel for this but I do have a quick question (I posted before but originally thought I had the wrong channel). I am currently trying to make a world through an fbx file. I made the world through blender. Once I got the world uploaded to vrchat, I have tested it and noticed that I can easily fall through the world that I have made. I currently have floors to prevent that from happening. I understand that it can be bad when you can see the floor. Would I need to use collisions or is there another method that I could attempt to do with this?

Hey guys im new to world building and this is a dumb question

After importing a furniture prefab package, if the only prefab i need is a coach for example, do i need to delete all other prefabs from the package to reduce the world size?

or does it not matter?

Files in your assets don't get uploaded

Only the things in your scene

Got it, thank you :))

[bold ibex]

what should I do if I imported UdonSharp before Qvpens and it still doesn't work? The pens don't write but can be picked up

[bold ibex]

Is it supposed to have no program source?

it should have something in there

did you import UdonSharp before or after the Pens

before

still doesn't work

do the pens have a readme file

yes

i followed it

see if it tells you what specific version of udon sharp to use

instead of you just using the newest version you could try the version they list

or vice versa of u did it backwards

ok

i'll try that

make sure to delete udon sharp before changing versions i think

yeah

idk not sure

wait

readme says download the latest UdonSharp

maybe contact the people who made the asset

ive had issues with the Program Sources not automatically connecting to the udon component things so i just used other assets till they worked

idk what stops it

[gaunt minnow]

Does anyone know how to to add multiple UdonSharp Video Player screens/UIs to the same system? Basically i want the video player system to display on multiple monitors, and have multiple input UI's too. I realize it can only play one video at the time, that's as it should be.

tried to visualize it a little

@radiant geyser you have this in your Just-B Club world, right?

could you explain how you did it?

[molten void]

What are some must haves for "Chill" worlds?

[gaunt minnow]

@molten void have you looked at vrc prefabs website?

they have a nice catalog with prefabs that are ready to go

https://vrcprefabs.com/

[molten void]

😮

❤️ ❤️

[molten void]

What tags are available for worlds? Are they just there to distinguish between game and avatar worlds?

[stone marsh]

The only two that really mean anything is tagging a world either as game or avatar as those two tags will place the world in appropriate world rows. Past that, just choose tags that you feel people would search for to find your type of world.

[molten void]

Awesome, thanks much ❤️ ❤️

I have promblem say: "A VRCSceneDescriptor is required to build a world "

[green lagoon]

you need to put a vrchat world prefab in your map as that contains a VRCSceneDescriptor

[ember vault]

OH LOL thank

[chilly hawk]

It's tidy-up time and here's what I'm stuck with.

[green lagoon]

yeah you don't have any light probe so your avatars are not going to be properly lit

[chilly hawk]

What's a light probe?

[green lagoon]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/LightProbes.html

https://youtu.be/dKgUJccjWRU?t=208

[chilly hawk]

Thanks, I'll check that out :)

I guess I'll be needing multiple light probe groups

[vapid badge]

Im using this for snow on the ground- anyone know how to go about making it gradually replenish? and not have to press a reset button?
https://booth.pm/ja/items/1677650

[desert python]

iirc, the water bed shader is that snow shader but with a ”replenish” feature so it looks like a water bed rather than snow

you can probably do a lerp in that snow shader tho , its been like, 2 weeks since ive used it

[stone marsh]

Shadertrixx includes a snow setup that is much better than that prefab and replenishes as it snows. https://github.com/cnlohr/shadertrixx

[green lagoon]

nice

[desert python]

ooo

[vapid badge]

ill take a look, thanks

[vapid badge]

I have no idea how i'm supposed to use this

[earnest ferry]

does someone have a good unity packages for a basic dance world that i can edit? so yeah thank you

[chilly hawk]

I messed up. Baked the reflection probe and can't undo it.

Not even sure if that's the right way to bake all my lights

[chilly hawk]

Does anyone know what I did wrong? My textures are ruined and I can't undo it.

Found out how to un-bake it. Not sure how to correctly bake though.

[near escarp]

That is the correct way

[bold ibex]

im trying to add ambient sound and make it quite but on the first loop it always plays full blast why?

[chilly hawk]

Why my baking result so horrible?

[green lagoon]

did you generate lightmap UVs on your objects

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/LightingGiUvs-GeneratingLightmappingUVs.html

[earnest ferry]

how to make it so i can get into my own Vrchat world without getting send to home world?

[near escarp]

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

[near escarp]

Add this to your project https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit/releases

[earnest ferry]

so that was the whole problem everytime

[earnest ferry]

if i added that what i need to do than more or just that

[near escarp]

It'll tell you what needs to be fixed

[earnest ferry]

oki thank you :3

[chilly hawk]

I followed that tutorial and got the messed-up bake

[near escarp]

messed up how

[chilly hawk]

Most textures are grey, parts of the walls are solid white, etc

[near escarp]

that doesn't sound like a lightbaking issue

[chilly hawk]

Baking the reflection probe is what did it

[near escarp]

Show your unity window ?

[chilly hawk]

settings should be the same as in this screenshot

reflection probe's area covers the entire structure

[near escarp]

Do your walls not have textures ?

[chilly hawk]

Walls are textured

I'll send a comparison image in a moment

[cerulean echo]

you tryet to check the box proyection maybe that look better?

[chilly hawk]

Haven't tried that yet. First time baking.

[green lagoon]

have you generated any light map uvs for your objects

[chilly hawk]

Main structure is a single model/object. 'Generate lightmap UVs' is checked.

[green lagoon]

thanks for the info

[chilly hawk]

Sketchup model, if that makes any difference.

I also added lots of light probes before. Not sure if I added too many.

[green lagoon]

that is a fine amount of light probes

question does it have those problems if you change it to a different baking type like GPU instead of CPU

[chilly hawk]

Haven't tried that. I'll give it a go.

This setting?

[green lagoon]

yes that one just figured it would be something quick and easy to check

[chilly hawk]

Much quicker than CPU! Still messed up though.

Ticking 'box projection' doesn't help

[green lagoon]

I might suggest saving your scene making a new one that's just like a plane and a cube on it to test

to figure out whether it's the model or something else that's broken

[ember vault]

owowoowowowo I now want to to teleport but the problem is when I click on the teleport I stuck in the telepoter

How to fix it?

work by this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BheVIHD3Vrg

[chilly hawk]

Seems fine

[green lagoon]

good to know so it's something weird with your model?

[chilly hawk]

Other models inside the big one get messed up too

[green lagoon]

question did you set it to where those objects in your most recent screenshot actually baked as those are pretty sharp-looking Shadows

[chilly hawk]

Not quite sure what you mean

[green lagoon]

are the object set to static and the lights set to baked

[chilly hawk]

My spot lights (I don't have other kinds) are all inside spheres, around 0.001 below the ceiling so they don't glitch out.

[chilly hawk]

I'll check

Result is the same

[green lagoon]

cool

[chilly hawk]

Ah, the date changed. Merry Christmas

[ember vault]

finally work

[chilly hawk]

Gonna sleep, maybe I'll have another go at baked lighting in a couple of days.

[sullen fiber]

anyone know why my textures look like this when I try to bake light?

[green lagoon]

do you have Generate lightmap UVs checked @sullen fiber

[storm matrix]

How to fix this? Uploading was working last night.

[royal vessel]

all my worlds particles are white and opaque, did vrchat break tranparency on particles recently?

this was fog not long ago

and the dust mites are white squares now i havnt updated the world in over a month and its been fine

[near escarp]

Which shader are you relying on ?

[royal vessel]

ill have to check but i think the dust mites were from the FAE package i had, its been working fine for the longest time, all they are is just transparent particles, super simple and never did this before so whatever the last update did broke it

hmm now its saying hidden internal error shader thats strange, maybe something actually broke for me and i didnt notice. weird. wonder why something in a project i used multiple times just ups and stops using the correct shader

coulda sworn it was fine after i updated it last time

[royal vessel]

guess it was my bad possibly, at any rate i managed to reimport the package from unity store and its back so i guess ill upload it and that should have fixed it

seems to be working again, guess its a cautionary tale to double check stuff

[sour coral]

is there a way to play a video which I put in the project? Not with url

[chilly grove]

I don't think so, if it's a small video you could convert it into an image sequence and play each frame yourself

[sullen fiber]

Is there a way to have mulitple world audios in different areas of your map?

The range doesnt seem to do anything

[storm matrix]

I was dealing with that earlier. All you have to do is select the audio source and slide Spacial Blend from 2D to 3D.

[sullen fiber]

Thank you

[civic cloak]

hey guys! quick question

I've installed an asset kit, would would be the quickest way to pull a texture from Unity and edit it in PS?

its a book, I want to change the cover graphics in PS

[green lagoon]

you should be able to right click at the bottom that shows like the asset folders and it would have a button for open folder in Windows Explorer
