Hi could someone please help - I am getting these errors and don't know why 😦 https://gyazo.com/21c64f5e0855e2dccd905df7280ff9ac

Failed to update public variable syncController on behaviour ControlsUI (VRC.Udon.UdonBehaviour), exception System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

never mind I reinstalled UdonSharp

[bold ibex]

Im getting these errors anyone know how to fix? [UdonSharp] Assets\QvPen\UdonScript\QvPen_EraserManager.cs(33,39): System.Exception: 'QvPen_Eraser' does not contain a definition for '_Init' [UdonSharp] Assets\QvPen\UdonScript\QvPen_Pen.cs(175,29): System.Exception: 'QvPen_SequentialSync' does not contain a definition for 'pen'

[karmic grove]

Does anyone know how make a sort of ai that will follow a player and collide with walls?

I know there's some sort of trigger on sdk2 to do it but I'm not sure how to work it

[civic cloak]

Any tips recommendations for making a 'skyline' or silhouette in the distance? Trying to put something visually interesting in the distance outside this windows

[mild spade]

I am not sure if you figured this out, but you have to set Scroll Sensitivity to 0

[manic sonnet]

Got it, thanks!

[chilly pawn]

Is there a good string lights asset out there? Looking for some nice quality stuffs for a world I'm trying to make :3

Prolly should ask in lighting heh

[severe pier]

Has anyone else here used Live home 3D to model their worlds? I found this program and have been modeling in it, not sure how it's gonna go but everything seems to be low-poly enough and very intuitive so far...

[green lagoon]

I haven't tried making it into a vrchat world but yeah you should probably be fine

[severe pier]

If this turns out to transfer well into unity, I might have to recommend giving this program a try for any newcomers trying their hand at world-building. I've never used a modeling program that was so intuitive and has such a large library of assets.

[open thicket]

anyone else ever run into the build mode not showing anything after installing udon sharp?

tried reimporting and clearing SDK multiple times and making sure everythings updated

nothing shows up in the console logs either

completely blankl

[bold ibex]

So, i lost my world file when i reset my pc, is there any way i can get it back and continue working on the world i made cause i wanna make some improvments to it

[wispy cloud]

Unfortunately no. No way to get it back from VRChat that isn't against terms of service.

[sour scaffold]

my control panel button is missing

[stone marsh]

You have errors in your console.

Go to your console
Hit clear to clear errors
Top right corner, only show red errors, hide yellow and info errors
Hit the play mode button to attempt to enter play mode
When it fails, screenshot every red error in your console. All of them.

[sour scaffold]

https://vizionis.gay/YtYdsTjP

u h

thats alot of errors

[stone marsh]

Clear your errors first

[sour scaffold]

hitting clear does nothing

ok

reimporting UdonSharp fixed it for now

but now i get these errors

https://vizionis.gay/sP7Yppfo

[upper obsidian]

Delete these scripts or look for duplicates.

[sour scaffold]

For some reason using CyanEmu I can jump in my editor

but in game it won't let me jump

[sour scaffold]

yes

everything is setup correctly

it works fine in the editor

but all of a sudden VRC is like no jumping allowed

[primal root]

How would I go about messing with the camera using different effects? Like simulating fading(to black or white), brightness of the screen, blurry screen effects, etc. (asking here and in world dev since idk if this is udon related)

[ivory pecan]

Hi, I need help. I want to click 'Build&Test' but when I do that, it just opens the Windows Store with the message 'no results for vrchat' :/

[mild spade]

Follow step #3 on this page. You are probably missing the direct path to the vrchat exe file from unity. https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/using-build-test#setting-up-your-settings

[unique radish]

Sweet Im happy you could find the issue

[winter trail]

hello, ive got an error and it says that multiple scenes loaded this is not supported by vrchat and can cause the world to upload to fail. Anyone know how to fix?

[unique radish]

Do you see more than one thick grey boxes in your hierarchy? Like in this photo I have two?

[winter trail]

no i dont think so...?

oh wait nvm, yea i did had one and it was the sample scene and now the error is gone, thanks xD

[hazy pebble]

https://gyazo.com/1b9a87f71b806e86c1f052dbcac073a7

My particle trail restarts before the particle disapears

is there a way to make it continuous until it dies with the particle?

This is my particle settings

[unique radish]

💛

[robust pawn]

Mite be a silly q but do I have to upload a quest world 1st before I up load a pc one ?

Like if I want to world to work with both

I know you got to do it with the models.

[ruby jay]

you have to upload it for windows and android, order is irrelevant

[robust pawn]

Thank you so much

[leaden hazel]

My 'Builder' section' is also blank D:

[bold ibex]

fun.

[bold ibex]

oh hi same

[leaden hazel]

This seems like a very large number to go wron

wrong at once*

[bold ibex]

me: tries to get into vrchat development
vrchat: no 🙂

[leaden hazel]

Trying a reimport.

I've got the project working on another machine but I transferred it to a faster one to lightbake and upload and... I can't upload :|

[bold ibex]

lol i hate this already

back to rec room

[spiral panther]

sdk moment

[bold ibex]

Check the unity error console

and make sure your in unity 2019.4.31

[bold ibex]

after clear and play

you in PC build rn?

whats in your project

is it a clean slate

[spiral panther]

im still on 4.29

[bold ibex]

yeah

completely clean

you imported VRCSDK 3 or 2

3

obvs

which one

you can only do one

in a given project

sdk 3

there are 2 diff sdk3

Avatars and Worlds

worlds

only import Sdk3 worlds

if you did both then restart project

only did worlds

what operating system are you on

windows 10

Instance an empty gameobject and add the VRC_Scene descriptor to it as a component

tell me if the build menu isnt blank anymore after that

I think the VRCSDK was just being dumb and not telling you that you need to have a Scene descriptor

which admittedly is confusing when it tells you basically nothing

[open thicket]

My instance also had a scene descriptor

But I’ll test with an empty later

[bold ibex]

oh you had the same issue w/o any unity errors?

[open thicket]

Yes

[leaden hazel]

Clearing the project library and obj folders and letting it report worked.

[bold ibex]

try going into play mode and see if the console makes errors

[open thicket]

Nothing but I think the library was bugged since migration even with step follow through

Gonna end up prefabbing the hierarchy later probably

[bold ibex]

oh you migrated 2018 to 2019 ah

[open thicket]

Older project yeah

[bold ibex]

this is so funny i added it and my unity just died

sly, You could try duping the project and in each duplicate delete some different chunk of stuff and see if it works again

[bold ibex]

your the first person to ever have so much problems with worlds lol congrats for being so unlucky

[open thicket]

Exactly what the prefabbing would do, to cull all the extra bloat from migration

[bold ibex]

i am ready for death

i thought you were a dev bro

read what it says kek

if it says it should have only one

it must mean there are currently more than one

i know

im not stupid

heheh

i'm using the udonexamplescene

i created it and that popped up, however when i delete it it just goes back to being blank

[leaden hazel]

Try clearing you Library and obj folders yoes, you may have a corrupted import

Because Unity~

[bold ibex]

unity devolopment

[spiral panther]

pve games where you fight ai made with vrchat udon

[bold ibex]

it worked

[bold ibex]

how would i be able to get the player bounce off an object like a trampoline? i figured to try the "add force" trigger to a cube however i can't seem to get it affecting the player.

[void needle]

Making my first world step by step, can I have a humanoid for scaling my map???

[left rain]

make a default capsule, that's about the size of a VRchat player collider

[leaden hazel]

I've got a UI canvas in the game but the laser pointer seems to stop about twenty cm away from the surface on it. Has anyone else seen this effect?

[hexed elm]

every time i boot up my test build in unity i get this error

have to build and test, login like 3-4 times even then the likelihood of the test build working is like 8%

[bold ibex]

Im getting these errors anyone know how to fix? [UdonSharp] Assets\QvPen\UdonScript\QvPen_EraserManager.cs(33,39): System.Exception: 'QvPen_Eraser' does not contain a definition for '_Init' [UdonSharp] Assets\QvPen\UdonScript\QvPen_Pen.cs(175,29): System.Exception: 'QvPen_SequentialSync' does not contain a definition for 'pen'

[rustic cove]

Any method for displaying an image which gets fetched from a URL? I want to optimize my world as much as possible and reduce potential memory usage.

So the image only gets fetched if the image is revealed, with a trigger. Is there any possible way to fetch an image (not video) from the internet?

[civic cloak]

having a weird issue trying to make an object able to be picked up - applied VRC Pickup and Sync scripts, but when I pick it up, it leaves the model but picks up the square collider instead?

[crude flower]

i made a map and i can't upload it because i don't have new user

[left rain]

I'm having a weird audio source issue. When I test audio sources in-engine via CyanEmu, everything is nicely tuned and works as expected. However, I'm not hearing anything at all when testing via VRChat. These are all spatialized audio sources using the VRC Spatial Audio Source.

[mild spade]

What are the settings on the audio source and the VRC spatialized script? Is it set to 3D audio and not 2D?

[left rain]

@mild spade only non-standard thing here that i'm aware of is the use of a volumetric source; the sound is rain hitting a pretty large ceiling so it can't be a point source

[mild spade]

If it is a spatialized audio, you need to set the Spatial blend to 3D and not 2D (unless you want it 2D audio, you will need to uncheck the "enable spatialization" on the VRC spatial audio script and leave it 2D)

[left rain]

ah, i'm dumb. that was it. i didn't even realize that had been set as 2D. thanks!

[mild spade]

I think 2D is the default starting value when you create an audio source, so many tend to not look into it. Like how Write Defaults are enabled on animations by default and can cause problems on avatars.

[misty wave]

Somebody shoulda warned me how miserable it would make my life to import a model from CAD into Unity

lol

[bold ibex]

what did u export model as

try doing fbx if u can

[misty wave]

It was exported to FBX but it was from a CAD software converted via all kind of weird formats and it's so deep into the dev process that it's too late to start over

Unfortunately a lot of the mesh is triangles which means I can't subdivide it but it's creating lighting issues

So I'm having to recreate lots of the parts from scratch, rip

[bold ibex]

you can convert triangles to quads assuming the topo isnt poop

idk if thats a feature in CAD software but its a thing in Blender

[misty wave]

it was awful yeah very janky lol

[bold ibex]

frick

[misty wave]

It's awful lol

There's tons of vertices that are VERY close

for some reason the scale of it is insane

so this wall is like 100 metres in Blender

very frustrating lol\

[bold ibex]

there must be a more efficient way

it looks like its just rectangles

[misty wave]

Yeah it does look like that bc it renders completely flat, but instead it's a wall with a width of like 0.00001% of its height

[bold ibex]

why is it triangulating like it is

[misty wave]

I guess that's how the angles were defined in cad and the conversion made it whack

I'm surprised there's not a way to convert CAD faces to quads

if there is I want to know lol

[bold ibex]

why not like this

u need to dissolve verticies

[misty wave]

That would be step one, step two is figuring out the actual geometry of the cubic prism

[bold ibex]

yes cubic prism

[misty wave]

This is what happens when it's stretchedu p

and the reason for that is because

this point

(for example not actually but)

is connected to one that's essentially on a different Z

for... some reason

I've recreated it but it basically required entirely remeshing

I literally spent like six hours last night trying to clean it up and it's one of the least complex objects I've ever tried to model lol

[bold ibex]

are there other formats you could get to blender

like obj

or dae

u try?

[misty wave]

It originally was a DAE that I guess what auto-generated from the CAD website I got this from

so

the other meshes auto corrupted for some reason

in any other formats

this was the only one I could get to actually work

...I realise how bizarre all of this sounds lol

[bold ibex]

hm

[misty wave]

For context I'm recreating Waffle House lol

[bold ibex]

oh nice

fellow floridian?

[misty wave]

Tennessee owo but I have family in Florida~

[balmy laurel]

so im trying to learn to create worlds but im unsure how to test the world i have created inside of vrchat what would i do?

[misty wave]

Assuming you have the items set up properly in the scene, the "VRChat SDK" menu, accessible from the VRChat SDK option on the toolbar at the top, has build and test modes available! owo

Anyone have experience using substance painter with VRChat?

[left rain]

I'm using designer and painter pretty extensively

regarding CAD, there's basically no way to get a good clean polygon mesh without retopologizing, and much of that has to be done manually. the best you can do with CAD converters like MoI3D is get less triangles by defining minimum angles to tessellate

from there you just have to use that as an armature to remodel on

[balmy laurel]

when going to test a world it doesn’t open vr chat how would I fix this…?

new for me but I’d like to learn and practice

[misty wave]

What's the workflow like to bring them into Unity? I am interested but don't want to dump a ton of time

[misty wave]

And yeah I discovered that the hard way unfortunately... if I had done that from the beginning it would have been far easier, they provided some form of mesh that must have been generated by the cad program the artist used but I didn't check it in detail until far too late, so I just had to remodel the whole wall. Not a huge deal I spose

[misty wave]

Huh I've never seen that, that's odd... is your VRChat.exe located in a weird location?

[left rain]

you don't bring them in directly... you export textures compatible with the standard shader, or whatever shader you're using

[balmy laurel]

no but it’s downloaded through steam

[misty wave]

Ah you just bake the textures and normals and bring them in? That sounds convenient

[misty wave]

Ah looks like you need to set up the link

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/using-build-test

[balmy laurel]

👍thx

[misty wave]

You're welcome! Hope it works~

[left rain]

pretty much. you paint your textures on in layers, and you can use substance procedurals as part of those layers, then export to any supported shader format (such as PBR Metallic or Diffuse/Specular or whatever)

I'm annoyed that Adobe bought it but it's still the backbone of my whole texturing pipeline

[lavish furnace]

anyone know how to Script a 2 way teleporter for a door that takes you to another room?

[trail fiber]

whats the best blender version to use while creating maps?

[misty wave]

Definitely gonna try to learn it more properly. I've watched some clips on stylised materials, specifically Ghibli stuff, and it looks really fun to work with! I have it free as a student eheh

[misty wave]

Are you wanting to use Udon Nodes or U#? It's pretty straightforward, there's some good tutorials for that kind of thing. JetDog Assets may even have it premade

[misty wave]

I would recommend 3.0 or even 3.1 Alpha. Latest stable version with the best features is the way to go I'd say

[bold ibex]

unless your dependent on plug-ins that arent supported and break on the newest versions of Blender but youd immedately know in that case

[cosmic mural]

Hellooooo! I’m working on my very first world right now, just using HomeKit and other free unity assets for now. I have about a bajillion questions but I’ll start with the important ones lol.

1.) When I set up an avatar pedestal, will the picture of the avatar go ahead and pop up if it’s been done correctly, or will it only show in game? I only ask because I’m not sure I’ve done it right. 😅

2.) I have everything in place and uploaded, but when I load into my world in-game I just go through the floor and keep falling over and over. I ran out of time to work on it, but I’m pretty sure the floor has colliders, so I’m not sure what to do ;-;

Any suggestions and tips welcome :D

[upper obsidian]

1. Upload and check.
2. Check what the collider is and what layer it is on.

[minor summit]

Anyone else had the problem that the file "scne-standaloneWindows64-SampleScene.vrcw" does not exist anymore? o.o

[glad cargo]

hiii can anyone recommend me a videoplayer that would work with dropbox link? I made a world before and the videoplayer their is outdated and doesn't play dropbox video links anymore

[desert python]

any videoplayer should play dropbox still. but id recommened the protv tho

[glad cargo]

thank youuuu

[analog wyvern]

any tips on how to properly scale worlds? I always make mine too big or slightly too small

[green lagoon]

if it helps a cube in unity is 1 meter tall

[cosmic mural]

Can anyone who has used the homekit or just done worlds in general lend me a hand for a few little problems I'm having? ;v;

[frozen rain]

Anyone know why I'd be falling back on my CPU when I have a 3080?

When lightmapping

6 light probe groups, not a giant map

about 20 or so light sources, all baked

[sour scaffold]

how do I make it so VRC_Pickup is synced to all users in the world

[cosmic mural]

I've got everything working except my mirror now

[frozen rain]

Add a VRC_ObjectSync

on each of the pickupable objects

[lavish furnace]

anybody know how to add music to a world?

I just wanna add a looping song with a on off toggle

[bold ibex]

Someone pls help, the builder tab is empty and I cant test and upload ;-;

[upper edge]

i fall through the ground infinitely when i load into my world

[near escarp]

close and reopen unity

[cerulean echo]

@cosmic mural if you need a help or got a question if i can help tell me

[sudden salmon]

quick question, do i need the version of unity that VRchat suggests? or can i use a differnt one from 2019

[finite violet]

you have to use the right version or else your project wont upload correctly

[sudden salmon]

alright thanks

[finite violet]

heres a link
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/current-unity-version

and np

[robust pawn]

So I got this and now It's will not let me test or do any thing anyone know how to fix?

[finite violet]

Try reimporting the sdk

It worked for me

[robust pawn]

Just found the issue it was the last pack I used. I got rid of it and it works ty for your time.

[finite violet]

[gilded aurora]

has anyone encountered this error:
Timeout while updating assemblies:Assets/Udon/Editor/External/VRC.Udon.Graph.dll (Output: C:\Users\micha\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp6f767d29.tmp)

things I have tried:
fresh install of unity
current and previous version of SDK on fresh projects
moved temp file directory to 8tb drive to avoid the possibility of space issues
disabled virus software just in case
no matter what I do it always fails on sdk import

[pulsar crow]

Are there good settings for world audio because most of my audio sources are super quiet

[finite violet]

does anyone know how to fix this?

[primal rover]

Hello!

I'm currently working with SDK3/Udon to work with music toggles in my world.
I'm having a hard time trying to get it to work.
My goal is to press a button and a song will play and when I click it again it will stop.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thank you! <3

[mild spade]

Just one music toggle? Or multiple songs? ALso is it a UI button or a simple interact button (highlights and you click)

[primal rover]

It's multiple separate songs. It's a simple interaction button.

[mild spade]

Sorry about replying late. This will let you do that using just one Audio Source. Put this script on all your buttons. Then drag your music files into each button under "SongFile" If you need more help on Udon, there is a channel for it #udon-general

[naive pumice]

Did they stop allowing people to publish worlds larger than 100mb to windows standalone? Edit: Solved - solution was to switch to android build and then switch back to Windows Standalone build.

[ruby jay]

no, that's the quest limit

[naive pumice]

https://i.imgur.com/cxHmtjb.png

[ruby jay]

just an sdk bug

[naive pumice]

should I reload the sdk?

[ruby jay]

try to do

[bold ibex]

Hello Everyone, I had a small urgent question. I saved my world in unity and then moments after it crashed. I also restarted it, but I can't restore the last build. It reset me atleast 5 hours back and was wondering if I could get it back?

[naive pumice]

In the Unity Editor, open the Services window, and select Collaborate. In the Collaborate window, select Open the history panel to display the Collab History window. Here you can see your Project's change history. Click Go Back To… on the change you would like to revert to

@bold ibex

[bold ibex]

Yikes... Yeah I don't think I signed into it previously... I'm like a month old into unity so I'm fairly new, awe man; I will definitely keep that in mind though for the future.

[umbral crypt]

Hello, I'm new to creating worlds. I want to build and test but when I click build and test it opens up vrchat just not into a test world. Does anyone know if there is a setting I have to change or what's wrong?

[covert hornet]

is there a limit on how many ui canvas can be in a scene? Duplicated a canvas and it just doesn't want to work.

[upper obsidian]

There is no limit. Check all the components on it.

[bold ibex]

Can you explain?

Like what you mean by a test world

[umbral crypt]

I want to make a test for the world I'm creating and in unity theres a build and test button. When I click it it opens vrchat but doesnt load me into the world I want to test out.

[bold ibex]

Did you add a spawn?

[umbral crypt]

I might not have. Let me try that. I dont know how all this works

[bold ibex]

Yeah no worries

Want me to explain how?

[umbral crypt]

Yes please

[bold ibex]

In the hierarchy, Crete a new game object or something like that lmao. Rename it spawn or something along the lines of that just to make it easy to tell. Click on where you have your vrc scene descriptor and click the drop down arrow for spawn. Drag the object into the spot for spawn and you should be good. Adjust the object in the world for location

Not sure if it’s clear enough

[umbral crypt]

Seems pretty clear lol, I'll try that.

[bold ibex]

Alright

[umbral crypt]

Does it need to be a specific size?

[bold ibex]

Just the default should work

[upper obsidian]

Specify the correct path to vrchat and check the console for errors

[umbral crypt]

I will have to start over since I did something wrong and now it says no scene descriptor

[umbral crypt]

I did that and it opens VRCHat

VRChat*

[bold ibex]

Oh ok. Yeah if it says you don’t have one, just click a floor or something and add component

[umbral crypt]

Thanks, this is so confusing lol

[bold ibex]

Yeah no problem

[umbral crypt]

I'll try the test now see if it works

[bold ibex]

👍🏻

Does anyone know how to make chairs work? I got everything good it’s just the actual box that you click. I can’t get that to be the right size. It’s too big

[umbral crypt]

It just sends me errors now saying something bout compiler errors

[bold ibex]

Oh yeah, just go into the console and clear anything there. On the control panel, just click auto fix for everything. Probably not what you’re supposed to do but that’s what I do lmao

[umbral crypt]

What do you mean console?

[bold ibex]

Uhh I smart explain it because I’m not on my pc right now. Right below the hierarchy I think

I’m not sure I can’t really remember what it looks like lmao

[umbral crypt]

Found it lol

[bold ibex]

👍🏻

does anyone know where to find that unity package that when you grab a pickup object and pull your trigger the object sticks even when you walk around it stays on to you?

[runic mural]

Hey, does anyone know where I can find skyboxes of cities (tokyo, hong kong, singapore)? I found some on stock photography websites but I don't want to make a subscription just for one photo.

[mystic leaf]

When zooming out the texture get weird, how do I fix this, this is also ingame aswell....

[mystic leaf]

you mean like a skyline with buildings etc?

the unity store has alot of great skyboxes, some free some premium I recommend checking that out!

[mystic leaf]

fixed it

nvm I didnt

its probably with the LOD that my textures get blurry

[runic mural]

Thank you. I did check the asset store but they're not really what I'm looking for. I saw a few worlds using a night panorama from Hong Kong or tokyo, taken from a drone I think as the pov is quite high up.

[mystic leaf]

cant you make your own? I cant seem to find any good ones :/

https://janika-suhonen2.medium.com/creating-a-6-sided-skybox-in-unity-87465a1ebbf7

its not round but depends on your needs if it may work

[runic mural]

I'll have to try, I guess 😛 thanks

[naive pumice]

Does anyone know if wwise unity integration is supported by the VRChat SDK

[ruby jay]

these questions can be solved by looking here: https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/whitelisted-world-components

the answer is no

[misty wave]

The ability to get geometry from Google Maps into Blender is going to make world creation even more fun tbh

not perfect but would be great for a VRC environment ngl

[mystic leaf]

what is the best way to make these models high res? I added subdivision in blender but then it takes ages to load

[mystic leaf]

dang that looks cool

[misty wave]

If you're adding a bunch of geometry it's gonna potentially be slower, what's your end goal with it? :0

[mystic leaf]

that why I ask

I think they look lame as low res

but high res is way slower

these are just cups on a bar as decoration

[green lagoon]

it would help if you had smooth shading on them

[bold ibex]

Hi, I'm interested in making a project that supports both quest and PC, in terms of pipeline, is it easier to just make a project that supports android/quest specs and then just duplicate it to build it for windows?

Instead of making a windows build first and then porting it to quest down the line

[misty wave]

Thank you!! I like it tooo

[misty wave]

Yeah I agree smooth shading is how you'd get the effect you're looking for, those are decent resolution as it is for a prop I'd say

[misty wave]

If your world only needs things that are quest compatible in my uninformed opinion that sounds like it'd save time yeah

[bold ibex]

cool, yeah i'm just kinda lazy so I'll just go full mobile and then down the line I can always add different stuff for PC

too bad about post-processing though

[bold ibex]

also what the heck this SDK is actually really good so far compared to a lot of other games.

[misty wave]

Yeah fair, generally I only use PP for bloom and such so it's not a huge deal to me but I've seen it used really well

[misty wave]

Very in depth~!! I want more clear documentation at some point though lol

[bold ibex]

What things have less documentation? I'm not super deep yet, about to tap into Udon to figure out what its like

[analog wyvern]

would making a sort of dvd player/casette player with preset songs work? like you put in songs by vr hand and it would start playing? I also wanna know how i can make sound more enviormental/like a speaker from afar or close? i wanna try to experiment with these a bit but idk if its even possible..?

[green lagoon]

https://github.com/Vard-and-Temmie/Udon-Record-player here's somebody implementing that exact thing but using a record player as a aesthetic

[analog wyvern]

oh cool, i might try it out, maybe i can edit it a bit too

[bold ibex]

can anyone help me with chairs?

[versed cargo]

I might be able to whats up

[bold ibex]

So I put down the chairs and I can’t get the hitbox to be smaller without messing up where the player sits

The hitbox is really big

[versed cargo]

Are you using the box colider

?

[bold ibex]

That’s what is automatically there

[versed cargo]

Yea so if you scale the box collider then the radius will be reduced

[bold ibex]

when i do that the actual seat just gets misplaced

[versed cargo]

Hmm that should be happening could you ss it?

[bold ibex]

wait i think i got it

yeah i got it

thanks for the help

kind of

lmao

[misty wave]

I highly recommend using a prefab for Better Chairs

The default Udon chairs are gonna look janky

[bold ibex]

well i can just hide them 🤷‍♂️

[grand rock]

not sure if this is supposed to go here but i ran into a weird issue

whenever i make a canvas and want to put a button or slider onto it it becomes huge and off proportion

it would be ok because i can always scale them down and match them but whenever i do the writing on the buttons just will not show up

i tried changing font, size, scale and nearly eveyrhting i was aware of how to do but to no avail the text just doesnt show

any help?

sorry for the bad explanation and images

[misty wave]

No like, the default chairs will lock you to their position regardless of avatar. Some more advanced chair prefabs will auto scale the chair to your avatar so even if you have a short or a large avatar it looks natural. The default ones don't

[misty wave]

My recommendation would be modifying the canvas example in JetDog's prefabs

[grand rock]

I will have a look at it right now, thanks

[misty wave]

Ye!~ I used those in my map as well, I just dropped the prefab in and it even has code examples to help you figure out how to make the buttons do things. In my memory it requires U# but if you don't already have that it's also a big rec

[random sphinx]

would anyone be able to tell me why the objectsync component doesn't sync objects between PC and Quest users?

[bold ibex]

does anyone know how to make a button to toggle 4 chairs on and off?

[versed cargo]

https://youtu.be/ibDu0dCeUE8 follow this but change it to the chair

[bold ibex]

thanks

[versed cargo]

Np

[bold ibex]

so i did it but it only works for one chair, i cant make multiple interact events

[mystic leaf]

Is it better performance wise to make one large building or multiple smaller rooms and use teleporters between rooms??

[bold ibex]

@versed cargo ? sorry for ping

[versed cargo]

You can put all the chairs in 1 empty game object and toggle that on and off

[versed cargo]

Np

[bold ibex]

oh ok ill try that

[versed cargo]

Smaller and when not in room the room toggles off

Less mesh to render

[bold ibex]

it worked! thanks a lot!

[versed cargo]

Yea np

[mystic leaf]

ahhh yes that makes sense, thanks!

[versed cargo]

Np

[grand rock]

Thank you very much! I solved the issue!!

[bold ibex]

i clicked upload on the world but its not doing anything. any idea why?

[versed cargo]

Can you ss you console

[bold ibex]

^

[versed cargo]

Sdk2?

[bold ibex]

it shouldnt be?

i put in the sdk3

@versed cargo

[versed cargo]

Has it been sdk 2 before

[bold ibex]

no it shouldnt have been

i made the unity project and imported sdk3

[versed cargo]

One sec

[bold ibex]

ok

[versed cargo]

https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit/releases

Try importing that and see what the debugger says

Or here just follow what they said here #user-support-old message

[bold ibex]

ok ill try that

does every world have to go through community labs first?

[versed cargo]

Yes

[bold ibex]

before i imported the tool kit it didnt have an option for community labs

oh ok

[versed cargo]

It will ask you when your getting ready to name your world if you want it community labbed

[bold ibex]

yeah

[sterile phoenix]

Anyone know how to make a reset button for pickup objects?

[lime pasture]

Would anyone know how to make a vrc mirror transparent but still be able to see yourself in it

Is there a way to change the opacity

[lime pasture]

Are you using Udon?

[sterile phoenix]

Yes

[lime pasture]

You would have to set it up in the udon graph. Similar to this graph for making toggles.

[bold ibex]

Does anyone have the link to download for that thing that you can test your world without having to load into VRchat Everytime on unity?

[stone marsh]

https://github.com/CyanLaser/CyanTrigger

Oops. I linked the wrong one. It's cyanemu

https://github.com/CyanLaser/CyanEmu

[bold ibex]

Thank you @stone marsh

[misty wave]

Glad it helped!!

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/677748331606441984/928784805599002684/kawaguchiko.png

This is so fun

Getting assets from Google Earth

[grand rock]

that looks heccin cool!!!!

[misty wave]

Thank you!!! I need to get the lighting better tho lol

[bold ibex]

U can get assets from Google Earth? That's cool

@stone marsh

When it says open ur VRchat world scene does that mean u have to open VRchat and go to ur world?

And also where is the play button in unity

[misty wave]

To test in actual VRchat, you should do build and test in the SDK window of unity~

[misty wave]

It's sort of a workaround but it works aha

[bold ibex]

i mean like using he cyanemu, how do u tst ur world with cyanemu

[bold ibex]

Is it normal for your inspector to disappear once you have cyanemu?

[versed cargo]

Just get it back 😂 thats kinda weird

[bold ibex]

Howwww do I lol

[versed cargo]

There should be 3 dots next to your project tab on the left there you should be able to add another

[bold ibex]

yasss thank yo u so much!

[versed cargo]

Np

[bold ibex]

does anyone know how to add words on buttons like "toggle mirror"?

is it the interact text?

because that doesnt work

[versed cargo]

You can use text meshpro just right click and i think its under 3d objects and you should see it there you can put it over the button and there ya go

And you can use it as a button if you add a box collider if it doesn’t already come with one

[bold ibex]

it just comes as a text thing? do i put that above the button?

because i want it to say what it does when you hover over the button

also my camera is really fast and hard to control

how do i fix that

[versed cargo]

Click F in the scene

[versed cargo]

Yea if you want you can edit the text in the inspector

[bold ibex]

where?

because i changed the interaction text and nothing happened

[versed cargo]

Can you Screenshot

[bold ibex]

wait also i think i pressed something because now i cant see all the cameras and lights around

like the sprites

[versed cargo]

Turn on gizmos at the top right

[bold ibex]

ahh ok thanks

[versed cargo]

Thats the toggle text when you hover over it in game it will display that text

[bold ibex]

yeah

i tried and i couldnt see it for some reason

ill try uploading it and checking again

[versed cargo]

While in game it didn’t display it?

[bold ibex]

not from what i could recall

[versed cargo]

I would check if it doesnt you can just add the textmeshpro

[bold ibex]

i already added the mesh anyway

[versed cargo]

Oh okay

[bold ibex]

oh it does show up. i just have tooltips off lmao

my bad

[versed cargo]

Lmao all good

[chilly flower]

Hello!

I'm new to making worlds

I have a question

[versed cargo]

Yes?

[chilly flower]

I imported a prefab of a mid-evil house with an interior, but it has no collision

i tried enabling mesh collider but it doesnt work

[versed cargo]

Is it all one mesh?

[severe pier]

Fun fact: Home Designer program assets are NOT the move

That's a bowl of fruit made of 14,000 triangles

[chilly flower]

its multiple objects

[versed cargo]

Those bananas are beautiful

[versed cargo]

Okay so i would recommend adding a mesh collider to all you want to collide with.

[chilly flower]

individually?

[versed cargo]

Yes you can hold shift and select them

Also turn on convex aswell

[chilly flower]

what does convex do?

[versed cargo]

Good question i was always told to turn it on because it will fit it correctly

Ill look it up rq one moment

“having an outline or surface curved like the exterior of a circle or sphere.”

So yes fits it correctly

[chilly flower]

ok also super easy questions, cause im new to unity. whats the hotkey for zooming in and out lol

also I see

[versed cargo]

Just scroll wheel

[chilly flower]

im using a touchpad (not by choice) atm... is there another way lol

im on a laptop

im away from home

also everytime i try to exit out of vrc after testing its gotta stop responding and go through this whole "trying to respond" thing before closing

is there.... a quick way to just close it

[bold ibex]

How do you test your world using cyan emu?

[misty wave]

Mesh colliders are very heavy, so if it can be accomplished with cubic/capsule/sphere colliders that's better

[versed cargo]

By pinching should work

[misty wave]

You just click play in unity to test with cyan @bold ibex

[versed cargo]

Task manager shuts it down fast

[chilly flower]

when placing an object by another, is there a snapping feature i can enable somwhere?

so that its right up against eachother

[versed cargo]

Hold shift

[chilly flower]

thankyou lol

[bold ibex]

But there is no play in unity button. Where is it located?

[versed cargo]

At the top you will see them in the middle

[misty wave]

Yeah, op middle~

[bold ibex]

where?

[chilly flower]

So I just downloaded a pack from the asset store

[bold ibex]

Ohh I see it now!

[chilly flower]

What should i do about that?

install or skip

[versed cargo]

Skip

[chilly flower]

alright

what does it mean?

[versed cargo]

Its saying you already have it and you dont wanna duplicate it

Compilers no bueno

[chilly flower]

Is there a "drop to ground" feature?

lol

for moving an object

[versed cargo]

I dont think so 😂

That would be kinda cool tho

[chilly flower]

google darn sketchup has that

how does this not lol

[versed cargo]

They might try looking it up

[chilly flower]

So i have an object selected in my Hierarchy and i for the life of me cant find it in the actual space lol

i pressed f

and zoomed in

help

lmao

[versed cargo]

Is it toggled on 😂

[chilly flower]

you mean like does the eye have a slash through it?

cause no it doesnt lol

is it possible for me to slide it around with hotkeys or something

[versed cargo]

Do you have the object selected

[chilly flower]

where in the heck is it

i do

i tried to recreate it

and just start over

but when i hit "create empty"

.....i still dont see where the heck it is lol

[versed cargo]

Screenshot

?

[chilly flower]

This screenshot is right after pressing F

[versed cargo]

Im lost on what you wanna find 😂

[chilly flower]

I also tried zooming in after pressing f

i dont see squat

i looked under the floor too -.-

before you ask

[versed cargo]

The internet is really bad gotta give me a sec 😂

[chilly flower]

lol

I FOUND IT

FREAKING

dang bot got mad at me for using all caps

[versed cargo]

Shhh stop yelling thats loud lmao

[chilly flower]

It doesnt show if ur on the hand tool

gosh dang it lol

ok ok i have another question

Is there some kind of "snap to 3D grid" feature

That'd make placing stuff with precision wayy easier

[versed cargo]

Only one i know is holding shift on rotating object

[chilly hawk]

I think Unity has a snap-to-grid feature, but I haven't used it. Always got the calculator out instead.

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

[severe pier]

Is 113,000 tris ok for a quest world?

[chilly flower]

oh yeah. edit>grid and snap settings

simple enough

my gosh lol i would not have the energy to use a calculator

well i probably would if i had to but im so thankful this is here

so i was lazy and just enabled mesh colliders on this huge palace

or is that what im supposed to do

i dont wanna place individual collision boxes on like everything ;-;

[chilly hawk]

Not sure if this is the channel for finding helpers, but I need someone who uses Bakery to touch-up and re-bake my world.
Someone here baked it before (and did a good job), but they're being unresponsive now.
It's not a big map. Just needs a touch up after swapping a slope for stairs and putting static assets on the walls.

I'd do it myself, but Bakery is incompatible with AMD graphics cards.

[chilly flower]

is there a way to see what im working with with perfect lighting, despite what light sources are in there

just for editing

[versed cargo]

Click the light toggle at the top somewhere around the play and pause buttons should be a light bulb

[chilly flower]

oh yep thats it, thankyou!

[versed cargo]

Np

[chilly hawk]

Also got these fans that won't turn. Lighting guy converted them to UDON for me:

[versed cargo]

Cant you just keyframe a animation of them spinning?

[chilly hawk]

That's probably how I did them originally. Was a massive pain though and I got constant console warnings for it.

Didn't like me using 'legacy', but wouldn't work without it or whatever.

[versed cargo]

Hmmm that’s confusing

[chilly hawk]

It also stopped working for no reason at some point, but when I made a scene duplicate (for testing) it worked in the copy with no changes.

Can't say I like Unity. Fortunately I'm only using it for this map (and previously to make some texture adjustments on an avatar).

[versed cargo]

I see

[chilly hawk]

Looks like it uses a C# script, which should be fine as I have UdonSharp:```using UdonSharp;
using UnityEngine;
using VRC.SDKBase;
using VRC.Udon;

public class FanRotate : UdonSharpBehaviour
{
void Update()
{
transform.Rotate(Vector3.forward, 720f * Time.deltaTime);
}
}```No idea why it won't work for me though.

Let's try this guy here:

Okay, no luck there.

Really frustrating. It worked for the other guy and the entire project was zipped up copied over to me, so it should work identically. But it doesn't.
I haven't touched these when updating the world. All I have done is add static and pickup objects.

[versed cargo]

Id try asking him again to see whats wrong

[chilly hawk]

Someone here baked it before (and did a good job), but they're being unresponsive now.

First thing I did. Even got through to them today and they said they'd do it. I've messaged them a few times a couple of hours apart and I'm not getting anything. I get the feeling they don't want to do it.

I've been waiting around a week now and I'm getting impatient.

Maybe I'm being unreasonable, but communication needs to work both ways.

Sorry for the mini rant.

[versed cargo]

Oh no problem i can definitely understand where your coming from i would recommend posting this in the #udon-general for better assistance

[chilly hawk]

Thanks, also good idea. I'll also try #world-lighting - maybe someone is up for lighting my stuff

[versed cargo]

Good luck 👍🏽

[chilly flower]

hello

So i have this window

I want to delete everything except the frame. well basically I want to put that frame on a blank wall

Am i going about this the right way

if so.... idk how to delete everything but the frame

[versed cargo]

If you have the fbx of that you can put it in blender and separate the mesh to delete the parts you want

[chilly hawk]

@versed cargo my fans were static 🤦🏻‍♂️

[chilly flower]

hey so

in sketchup

i can like draw a rectangle in the middle of the surfact of a plain and paste a texture in it

how do i do that in unity

[urban epoch]

Unfortunately, Unity is not a modelling program. You can bring over models from sketchup, blender, maya, you name it, but Unity itself does not lend itself well to modelling inside of it. Tools like Probuilder (free) and Umodeller (paid) can accomplish this, but Unity is designed as a game engine rather than a modelling program.

[chilly flower]

@urban epochDo people make their vrchat worlds soley in unity?

...usually?

[urban epoch]

Some do, but that's usually for more basic environments and beginner worlds. The majority of the maps you know were done in Blender, though a few of them may have been done with probuilder.

[chilly flower]

also, can i stretch an object like a cube, and make the texture repeat rather than stretch?

[urban epoch]

Again I recommend something like blender to accomplish this, though some shaders act in world space and will display correctly no matter the scaling. If you really want to do your environment building inside of Unity, probuilder can do that repeating texture effect quite easily and is more similar to building in Hammer for Gmod or the likes.

[chilly flower]

I imported a pack of assets and it came with an example world as well as prefabs and objects all ready to go and make something with..... Could import that in blender?

im downloading probuilder

[green lagoon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofzw6hKhI3k&t=3s a pretty decent introduction video I found to pro Builder

[urban epoch]

You always could, but that may take a significant amount of time to import them and get the textures right. Everyone's workflow is different, but I personally prefer modelling the framework of the environment in blender, then placing all of my props I have inside of Unity.

[green lagoon]

very nice looking map

[urban epoch]

Thanks, it's actually an office environment for work but it was the fastest one I could open both Unity and Blender for.

[green lagoon]

it does the trick for illustrating

but yeah eventually one would want to learn blender even if they do they're greyboxing in probuilder as there's some stuff that's a heck of a lot faster to do in blender

[chilly flower]

@urban epoch wait is probuilder an addon to unity or a whole other unity. is it compatable with vr chat stuff

[urban epoch]

It's a downloadable package from the Unity Package Manager. It just creates geometry, so no scripts will cause issues with VRChat.

[chilly flower]

where can i find the unity package manager?

[urban epoch]

Window -> Package Manager

[chilly flower]

im getting the hang of probuilder

exactly what i wanted

[green lagoon]

cool

[minor summit]

hey and good morgning 🙂 I Got a question.. I have seen recently on a few maps that objects can be grabbed and put on bones of an avatar. Does someone know if there is an premade asset or tutorial for this kind of function?

[urban epoch]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk6ayPyOjwQ
https://github.com/bdunderscore/attach-to-me/releases

[minor summit]

ohh thank you! 😄

[chilly flower]

in unity

how do you copy something

and then go somewhere else

and paste it

there

[minor summit]

in the Inspector -

if you mean the values

[urban epoch]

You can duplicate something with Control D, then move it to the scene cameras position with Control Shift F

[chilly flower]

i found this code online someone made for unity, to add a feature where whatever you have selected will drop on top of the floor underneith it

im not sure what to do with this code though

how do i apply this?

https://forum.unity.com/threads/drop-all-selected-to-floor.93316/

[split crystal]

Hey all, i'm trying to figure out how vrc clubs have the door closed until the event starts and the host, or a select number of permissioned players, can open it/access certain areas unavailable to regular visitors, can someone point me in the right direction on how to implement that?

[old crow]

I'm making a destroyed house that I used to live in using floor plans by Walters. What is the recommended polycount to keep this within?

I've heard its 1.4m is the maximum before you should like, seriously rethink.

[ruby jay]

usually you want to separate your building into areas to utilise occlusion culling

[earnest juniper]

Is there a way to exclude certain objects from the world when it gets built? I'm basically trying to build an avatar and a world together (the character lives in the world) and I'd like to use the world and lighting and everything as a backdrop for the avatars photo. It makes sense to me to build both of these assets together in the same unity scene. Am I on the right track, or is there a better way to do this?

I suppose this answers my question directly, but my bigger question remains... what's a good way to have the character and the world together in Unity, so that I can see and work with them together?

[old crow]

Example?

I'd rather not do teleports.

[ruby jay]

mark whatever you don't want uploaded as EditorOnly in the object's tags

[earnest juniper]

Oh perfect, thank you! 💜

[kind portal]

Hi, I wonder how i can make a AI for VR CHat, Like for a Horror Game a Monster thet runs around and kill Users if they are to near.

[earnest juniper]

Aw, the SDK still doesn't like that, same error 😦

[ruby jay]

occlusion culling intends to avoid rendering objects you cannot see, for this meshes must be separated (eg submeshes), then you bake occlusion culling

it will take a bit of trying with your scene, i assume
read more here: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/OcclusionCulling.html

[ruby jay]

you may not use both sdks in the same project

[old crow]

I'll have to look into it.

What I'm making is an old home I lived in, for my home world.

Its going to be as accurate as possible excluding super polycounts

[ruby jay]

well, on the one side, you will have to learn udon and then also understand unity
look into nav mesh https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/nav-BuildingNavMesh.html

[kind portal]

Thanks

[old crow]

I'm beyond excited for making this

So, to review

I should, once finished with everything

Create a seperate blend file

and separate each room into their own mesh

And setup occlusion planes

that'll hide the furniture in the room if passing a certain wall?

Could I make the walls "occlusion planes" just simplified?

This is the polycount of the shell so far.

[ruby jay]

that's not really a lot but furniture will surely contribute too

[old crow]

Here is the thing, lul

I'm uh, obsessive over getting those numbers lower

probably too much

[bold ibex]

doxxed

[old crow]

Well its a model home, meaning, there are over 14k houses like this.

That also means that someone will be able to use this as their VRChat home too and have it work properly. Since it is 1:1 do the inch, that also means they could technically walk around their own house.

[bold ibex]

rich people would def buy a vr true scale of their mansion

[old crow]

Mansion?

[bold ibex]

performance wont be an issue for rich people

[old crow]

Its a two floor house that my relatives built after buying the plans from now defunct Jim Walter's Homes

[bold ibex]

what kind of maps r u going to bake

[old crow]

After I get shit modelled I'll decide how I'll set up the lighting in Unity.

For now though its trial and error.

[bold ibex]

yes

[old crow]

The exterior is a tricky one though

I'm probably going to pull heightmaps and treemaps from databases of the original location and use Billboards as trees for "front facing" and then a flat tree background for behind the front billboards. You know, simple LOD.

Thats later's problems though.

[bold ibex]

so you plan to be able to go outside

thats going to be tougher

[old crow]

Eh, not entirely.

The outside will definitely either be an update or just visual.

I'll only be making the outside for what is visible.

[bold ibex]

from inside ye

[rancid osprey]

So i have been working on my world without issue.. then last night I open unity.. and the VRC SDK Control panel is no where to be found and objects in the game are kicking out errors. have you guys seen this before?

one day all is fine.. next day.. the vrc control panel is gone and errors are creeping out

[old crow]

Do these seem optimized to you?

Or do you think I should push it further and get that poly count down

[naive pumice]

create a LOD Group so the polygons decrease as the player walks further away from the object

btw polygons don't cause a huge hit on performance, it is usually draw calls that hurt performance the most

[old crow]

So use this model as the LOD and use the main as the

main

[naive pumice]

https://i.imgur.com/2lO8khP.png

[old crow]

So both of these are valid.

Okay.

[naive pumice]

LOD 0 is the main object LOD 1 is slightly more optimized, and LOD 2 is even more so, then culled means the object doesn't exist

[old crow]

Thank you so much for showing me LOD in Unity.

It'll help so much.

I'm not used to "modern rendering" in a gameplay sense.

[naive pumice]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/render-pipelines.html

VRChat only supports the legacy or built in render pipeline, it doesn't support HDRP or URP rendering

[ruby jay]

i would not bother with LODs in most cases
instead you can bake polygons from a high res to a low res model
either way, i would not bother if your mesh is not even hitting 10k

[naive pumice]

especially true with larger objects like couches, LOD groups are more useful for when you need to render many objects at once for instance grasses and trees

[old crow]

How would I set the scale accurate to VRChat's avatar in blender

[open thicket]

This looks fairly lowpoly and definitely wouldn’t bother with LODs

[old crow]

You should've seen the original.

LMAO

Thats after I retopo'd it.

How tall is an avatar in cubes in unity?

@open thicket

[left rain]

an avatar's default collider is the size of a unity capsule mesh

[green lagoon]

a cube is 1 meter

[fierce haven]

I could use a little help if anyone would know a fix to this. I keep running into this when clicking upload on my world " NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an objectVRCSDK2.RuntimeWorldCreation.Start () (at Assets/VRCSDK/Dependencies/VRChat/Scripts/RuntimeWorldCreation.cs:82) " From what I have found, it seems as if the script for the Content NSFW toggle is missing but I am not 100% sure that is it. I've tried redownloading the SDK and it still seems to be missing so I am a bit unsure on what to do.

[upper obsidian]

@fierce haven There is little information about the error.
It's high time to remove sdk2 and install sdk3

[fierce haven]

See thats the thing, this is with the sdk3. It was a fresh sdk3 install with nothing more added yet outside of some cubes.

I believe I just found a fix for it, although its very strange and I'm not sure how to really replicate it. I made a fresh install with nothing but the same sdk and copied it all over and it somehow fixed it. Not sure why my other fresh install after the error first happened didn't work

[south orbit]

• so i seen quite few in regards to spherical walking / walking sideways on walls etc etc similarities like that tho i cannot find any tutorials, scripts or anything towards it that works properly / towards vrchat but i really would love to figure out how to either make it from scratch or use a open free source, i saw maps in vrc before having this feature where u can walk into a path and suddenly u stand sideways on the walls or etc etc which can create some trippy illusions / effects in form of people standing sideways or upside down.
• anyways i hope anyone here might know any about it or where i can get started with this myself ? i would personally love to build a map with this being the main feature tho not being able to find any or knowing how to build such makes it difficult to create the map :p .

• the issue with alot of tutorials i found is that they use scripts bound to a player which seems to be kinda impossible doing so in a vrc world, atleast i can add scripts to the vrcworld spawn but i highly doubt they apply towards the invidual player / remains on the player rather than just on the spawn itself .

[chilly flower]

I cannot for the life of me figure out why these are two different shades lol

Im new at this

pls help

[near escarp]

Any light in the world ?

[warm coral]

Hello, how do I properly make my world quest compatible? Do I just convert my project to android, change shaders to mobile/optimize it and upload it on the same world?

[near escarp]

That's pretty much it !

Make sure the hierarchy is identical however, or that will cause issues

[warm coral]

Ok, thanks

[pulsar crow]

The audio in my world is super quiet and I can't figure out why. All of the audio is set to a volume of 1
In editor, it's perfectly fine

[near escarp]

You're probably hitting the compressor, which means your audio is actually too loud and is being reduced a lot

Try 0.5

[pulsar crow]

Okay. I'll try that out and see how it goes

0.5 as a theoretical max or?

[near escarp]

Just reducing it by half for now to see if the audio is still very quiet, then try 0.25, etc

It might differ per audio source with the audio file inherent db volume

[pulsar crow]

Will do 👍

[grand rock]

not sure if this question belongs here or in udon but i done all of my udon correctly but the buttons/slider/url are un-interactabe, i cannot click or use them

[near escarp]

You set your colliders to IsTrigger ?

[grand rock]

uuuuuh

ill check

[grand rock]

i checked and no they arent on IsTrigger, are the supposed to be?

sorry, im new to all this

I thought it might be something to do with this but i doubt it?

[near escarp]

They do

Are you watching any tutorial ?

Vowgan/Momothemonster have some great ones for beginners

[grand rock]

I was watching Vowgans but i must have missed it

thank you so much

[near escarp]

I hope i'm not wrong though

[grand rock]

does it matter if it is a box or mesh collider?

[grand rock]

only one way to find out!

[near escarp]

The collider type shouldn't matter

[delicate grove]

the output of this camera is on a render texture, but i still see the UI and microphone icons. any ideas why?

[grand rock]

no, sorry. I am sadly only a beginner :((

[grand rock]

per chance, do i need to add an VRC ui shape (script) to all of the buttons?

the moment I added that to the canvas it made the buttons interactable

[near escarp]

Since you're making a canvas based thing i'm not sure actually, which makes me realize that it wouldn't need to be set to IsTrigger in the first place either

#udon-general is where the smart people are

[grand rock]

a

alrighty

sorry if i riddled this area with off topic questions

[near escarp]

No worries, I just wish I had answers for you

[grand rock]

you helped immensely already and im heccin grateful for that!

[chilly flower]

In unity

If you have two different projects with the same assets from the same directories

could you copy something to your clipboard in one project and paste in another?

[versed cargo]

Yea that should work if it was a prefab

[chilly flower]

So, I went to gizmos and pressed the lil light bulb, but i still dont see the light source icons

[bold ibex]

make sure the 3d icon slider isnt too low or high

if its enabled, it will be a little brighter shade of grey than when its off, in dark mode on U 2019.4.31

idk how it looks on light mode

i mean if the Gizmos button is enabled

[chilly flower]

So im looking at this prefab

I really want to just use those stairs at the top there

without the rest of this whole thing

how do I isolate it

I have probuilder if that helps

[near escarp]

Is it a single mesh ?

[sour scaffold]

Anyone here have experience with AudioLink?

I get this error on the Udon Behavior component

[chilly flower]

@near escarpIt seems to be yeah. When I click it the whole thing highlights

[near escarp]

Then you'd have to export it to blender and edit the mesh yourself

[chilly flower]

how do I export it?

[sour scaffold]

you can take the FBX in the assets folder

and import that into blender

edit the mesh of the object and remove everything you don't need, then export from blender and pull it back into Unity

[gentle vale]

Hey yall! New to world building, I was wondering, is there a way to like raise the "killing floor" in a world I dont know what it's called really, but like the plane that which like if someone hits they are then set to respawn X_X

[chilly flower]

well it keep the textures on it?

[sour scaffold]

yes

FBX's have Textures and materials as well as armatures stored in them

[chilly flower]

Oh my gosh

Ok so it said wall_1 is broken, or something. Then it said, would you like to fix it? I didnt really get what it meant but i hit yes

It made all my walls pink!!

How do I undo that...

I tried going to here

It's not really working...

[versed cargo]

Control z

[chilly flower]

nope doesnt work

[versed cargo]

Oh yea no clue then lol btw it looks really good 👍🏽

[chilly flower]

thanks lol but MY WALLZ

@sour scaffolddo u know

[sour scaffold]

what gave you an error?

the VRCSDK?

send me an image of your inspector so I can see the material values

[sour scaffold]

it looks like you put a normal map in your Albedo slot

[chilly flower]

hm?

a bit new to this sorry

i dont follow

[versed cargo]

You have a normal map texture in you albedo which is where your regular texture would go like the color. You can see it at the top of the material its blue

Normal maps are for better texturing adding a sense of realistic or whatever and usually look like that

[chilly flower]

when i make it any other color when i click away and come back its red again

well its actually not

ill explain

you gotta show me where i have a texture in there cause to me it just looks like i have a color in there

but the color is hovering over the pure white area

however whats odd is even if i move the color slider on the rainbow ring to a different color, and try to make the wall green or something, it still just becomes red

@versed cargo

oh i just noticed where it says normal map

what type of map should it be?

[versed cargo]

Yes the normal map is right but the albedo click that and delete it out

[chilly flower]

oh aight

[versed cargo]

Ya

[chilly flower]

ok done, but now it looks like a solid color rather than the cement it used to.... im assuming the texture is squished super small? idk how to inlarge it tho

[versed cargo]

Can you Screenshot

[chilly flower]

basically

I want it to look exactly the way it comes, naturally

sending

slow internet

[versed cargo]

Lol same

I dont think ill be able to see that im not a t my pc rn

[chilly flower]

its ok

that wasnt the screenshot

[bold ibex]

does anyone know how to put textures on items that come with textures? i dont get it.

[chilly flower]

the screenshot is still sending

its a png

[versed cargo]

There may be other wall textures. Just look for the one that doesnt look blue lol

[chilly flower]

that bmp i sent tho was the raw texture lol. its already they way i want it to be

its grey and nice and was perfect before it bugged

[versed cargo]

Right click in the small empty area near your textures select create and then material. There you should be able to put the texture in the material and assign it to the object

[chilly flower]

wow this image is taking a long time

[versed cargo]

You could try removing the color from it and making it a non normal map that way its not going to change colors but idk how to do that for a bmp

[bold ibex]

okay will try this rn will let you know

[versed cargo]

Okay

[bold ibex]

i have to do every texture one by one assign it to a material?

[chilly flower]

grrrr originally all i did was import this texture from a pack on the assets store, and apply it. I hadnt modified anything and liked it.... is there really no way to just restore it to all default settings

[versed cargo]

Yes basically

[versed cargo]

What is broken??

[bold ibex]

okay. also how do i assign it? i know i drag it somewhere into the material thing

[versed cargo]

Yea put the texture in the albedo and id name them so you dont get confused

[chilly flower]

Well after you had me switch from albedo it wasnt pink anymore, which was nice. but the texture now has a much more pure color rather than looking.. like cement. I assume the texture is squished. But honestly im kinda ignorent

[versed cargo]

Its because you dont have a albedo texture in thats why you gotta tind the other wall texture

[chilly flower]

i wanted to send two pics to compare the raw texture to how its appearing cause tbh its kinda hard to describe exactly what its doing

[bold ibex]

will do. also, when its one whole object from sketch fab, i drag a material onto it and it goes onto the whole object instead of one single spot. i unpacked the prefab but theres no children to select each piece individually

[chilly flower]

why i gotta wat

"tind"?

oh find

so ur saying just abondon this texture? The raw image file still looks perfect, and also i dont really have another one this came in a pack with everything else and its just perfect

[versed cargo]

That usually means its all one mesh so it inly needs one material for all

[chilly flower]

it was working ;-;

[versed cargo]

Idk keep the normal map but the albedo is the reason it doesnt look correct.

[bold ibex]

thats odd. do u see the screenshot how it has each material for different pieces?

[versed cargo]

One sec my internet is slow lol

[bold ibex]

okay.

[chilly flower]

also a bunch of these are blue now

not that they actually look blue in the 3d space

[versed cargo]

Im lost whats messed up

[versed cargo]

Did you happen to put a regular texture in and it asked fix now because it wasnt a normal map

[chilly flower]

i dont think thats what it said

but i couldnt really comprehend what it said

im sorry

[bold ibex]

theres multiple materials for this kitchen cabinet. theres a material for the stove, material for microwave, material for cabinets. when i put a material onto the kitchen set it makes the whole object one material. it doesnt have all the materials into one where i can just drag it on and they go in their spots. does this make sense to you?

[versed cargo]

All good thats a possibility that it fixed itself into the normal map. You can try and import the textures again through your files to see if you can find the regular texture

[versed cargo]

Try clicking on the kitchen set and see if it has multiple materials in it

[bold ibex]

it doesnt. its just one big piece

[chilly flower]

what if i re-imported the pack

[versed cargo]

Then it’s possible that the person who made it forgot to separate the mesh so you could try doing that in blender

[versed cargo]

That could work aswell

[chilly flower]

It fixed it!!!

yessssss

idk who da hecc albedo is but they suck

[versed cargo]

Lmaoo

[chilly flower]

hm yknow

after re-importing and everything was fixed

it looks like the texture is back in the albedo spot

but i mean its working

im kinda confused about what albedo is for

[versed cargo]

Have you ever made a avatar?

[chilly flower]

i have not

Hey Maxery, may i ask you something else :3 I just booted it up in vrc, and its laggy. Tho i booted it up identically earlier, like with the 3d space exactly the same, and it was fine

Why might it be lagging?

[versed cargo]

Did you add anything after the last time you booted it up

[chilly flower]

nupe

just the texture stuff we did

thatd be weird if it lagged for that tho

oh welp

not lagging now

[versed cargo]

Oh nvm then lol

[gentle vale]

Hoping someone can help me please, I have a problem where if I have people fall into the water here, they have to respawn to get back up, does anyone know how to add a respawn floor so if they go into the water they auto respawn? https://www.screencast.com/t/M3xfDeRbNXhA

[chilly flower]

When doing a local test on your unity world, can you invite others to join you? on vrc?

[versed cargo]

Its the world is friend plus maybe

[versed cargo]

Ill try looking into it and see if i can find a way

It may take a bit tho

[gentle vale]

Its all good, I know there is a ton of worlds that have a like "if you fall to far, you just respawn" kinda thing, so I figured there has to be way to do it, and I mean if you leave the water on the side of the world I have you eventually will respawn, Just need a way to bring it up lol

or I guess being everything down? lol

[chilly flower]

Hm, “maybe” tho

I cant find the answer online

[brisk spear]

Looking to commission a world creator can someone dm if they are open for commissions

[bold ibex]

What are the most up to date video players?

[versed cargo]

On booth theres one that works pretty well but not for quest sadly

[random sphinx]

anybody use kurotori udon karts before?

[chilly flower]

Does anybody know?

[versed cargo]

I answered lol

If the world is uploaded to your vrc account you can inv friends

They just cant join you without the inv

[chilly flower]

But does it have to be published?

[random sphinx]

no

[chilly flower]

:O

yayyyy

Okie another question :3 I been making this world i have no idea if theres a memory limit for pc users

[random sphinx]

there's not, but that doesn't mean you should make the world super big

aim for around 100mb if you can

at least that's my philosophy

[chilly flower]

im making a palace with an amusement park backyard :3

in a japanese garden

...so it might be kind big

[random sphinx]

ok

[chilly flower]

i dont have much of a sense of scale

like intuitively

how do i check how much memory itll take for vr?

[random sphinx]

when you upload your world it show the size

this will help too

[magic orbit]

Heyo! Anyone have any idea why the builder section of the SDK doesnt work for me in the collab but it works perfectly fine for my friend?

I have no errors in the console either.

On top of that, the same unity version and sdk works perfectly fine off collab in my own private projects.

Thanks for any help! :D

[chilly flower]

@near escarp so i just tried to import those stairs from earlier into blender

the fbx file
