Are you able to enter play mode?

[glossy cargo]

I am able to enter play mode and it seems the name resets back to use again

[stone marsh]

Interesting. Try opening the udon behavior, copy everything by drag selecting the entirety of its contents. Then remove that behavior from the pedestal, click add component, add a new udon behavior, create a new behavior and name it whatever, and then paste what you copied into it. Effectively making a new, but same, behavior

[glossy cargo]

That seemed to work....?

[simple bone]

does anyone know where I can find a working pool table? Ive tried a couple but couldnt get the table to turn on

idk if it was an udon issue or what

[stone marsh]

Nice. I suspect I know what happened but it would be a word soup. Glad it worked. post again if it doesn't when you build and test.

[stone marsh]

The community billiards is the best available.

[simple bone]

could u send me a link possibly?

[stone marsh]

https://github.com/VRCBilliards/vrcbce

[simple bone]

ah i tried that one

I installed UdonSharp and it wouldnt work for me

[stone marsh]

Are you using the U# 1.0 beta?

[simple bone]

i just installed the latest release of U#

from MerlinVR

[stone marsh]

This correct? https://github.com/vrchat-community/UdonSharp/releases/tag/v0.20.3

[simple bone]

thats not the link i used but, it is the version im using

[stone marsh]

Did you use the correct prefab provided by the asset?

[simple bone]

i saw many prefabs in the billiards folder

[stone marsh]

You may want to take a screenshot of the pool tables main script in your scene.

[simple bone]

which prefab should i use?

there are 6

[stone marsh]

Any of em should work. They're just different styles of table depending on the look you want.

[simple bone]

im gonna try a different one this time.

currently rebuilding the world so ill see if it works this time

[stone marsh]

You may want to share a screenshot of the main script on the table in your scene so we can see if references aren't missing or broken somehow, such as importing UdonSharp after you imported the table

Dependencies should always be loaded first or you'll have missing references

[simple bone]

where can i find the main script?

[stone marsh]

Will be on the table somewhere. I'm not able to open unity so only going by memory.

If you open the tables container, one of the game objects will have a big script with lots of options on it

If you see empty udon behaviors you loaded it in wrong

[simple bone]

im seeing a bunch of Udon behavior scripts with no program source

[stone marsh]

Yep.

So here's what you need to do, I'm gonna post a long reply so give me a sec

[simple bone]

alrighty

[stone marsh]

1: delete the table from your scene
2: delete the vrcbilliards folder in your assets folder
3: save your project
4: right click in the asset folder and click create new>scene. To make a new scene file
5: open the new scene and save if prompted
6: delete the udonsharp folder
7:save and restart unity
8: add udonsharp from the link I provided up above, ensure you use the unity package
9: add the table unitypackage
10: reopen or original scene file.

The lesson is, you always need to load dependencies first because the asset depends on them being there. If they aren't there. It will break. This process is kinda redundant but it's listed as such to protect your project so its ideal to follow that order.

[simple bone]

yea its still not working

I just did all that to the dot and its its still not linking the udon scripts

[karmic rivet]

How do I fix this???? They’re made to be able to be picked up and have gravity on

[cobalt prawn]

Looks like you just need a collider on the table

[karmic rivet]

Do I need to add an extra collider to the ground since they clip through?

[cobalt prawn]

Or colliders on the objects, the pickups need em too

[cobalt prawn]

The ground already has one or else you would be falling too. Why would it need another?

[karmic rivet]

I didn’t know if they would since they clip through the floor. I’m pretty sure they have colliders but I may need to check since Unity doesn’t like me

[cobalt prawn]

You might have the collider on the wrong object. It should be on the same object as the pickup script and the rigidbody I think

If you have it on a parent or child of the pickup it might not work right

And make sure the colliders are not triggers

[stone marsh]

Pickup doesn't work without a collider, so it has one. But if it's set to IsTrigger, it won't perform collision checks

[simple bone]

did u see what i said above?

[pearl plume]

This just looks like you put the books kinda in the table instead of on the table. Maybe move them up a bit

[karmic rivet]

The colliders had been deleted when Unity crashed at one point, so hopefully I fixed it

[pearl plume]

Aight

[spiral panther]

downscales textures from 2k to 1k
also removed reflections on most materials
world size drops by 20 mb

[inland cave]

Its an improvement? :D

[spiral panther]

yeah

barely any difference in quality

this isometric goes hard

[stone marsh]

Square x cubed

[inland cave]

always fun to do

[bold ibex]

hi! im fairly new to building 3d worlds and i was following a tutorial on youtube. i also just began using unity. this grid appeared suddenly when i was editing and i dont know how to fix it. im not sure if its suppose to be above or below the world....any tips on fixing this?

[spiral panther]

it is supposed to be there

its helping with object placement and such

but if you want to disable it, click this up here. @bold ibex

also, it disappears when you get closer to it.

[bold ibex]

ok thaaaanks

[inland cave]

Part of me almost wants an isometric camera that projects somewhere just because it's so cute

[spiral panther]

one of my favorite things about unity is that if you right click to move the camera even when youre going out of the window it just loops around

[inland cave]

It doesn't actually work for me, Unity just goes crazy if i reach the edge of the screen

[spiral panther]

weird. for me it loops my mouse around by teleporting it to the other side of the screen and the camera keeps going with it.

[inland cave]

Would be nice if it did, I expect very little from Unity at this point <w<

[spiral panther]

its so fun

haha camera go weee

[inland cave]

camera go BRRRR

[spiral panther]

ah yes totally functional camera

[inland cave]

yup

[spiral panther]

tfw vibing in my own world that isnt even done yet

[grave zealot]

https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_64e7003c-e4b0-4bed-a0e1-f718f76fd8b8

[simple bone]

how do i get the UdonSharpVideo to autoplay a livestream?

nvm

@stone marsh No matter what I do, the scripts will not load for the billiards

[stone marsh]

Nice mods

[simple bone]

bruh i need yo help

[spiral panther]

anyone here like lighting

i like spotlights.

[red urchin]

Any idea why on the website it says that one of my worlds that i havent touched or updated in 2 years, says that it was updated March 14th of this year?

serverside thing happening in the background or something?

[stone marsh]

If you changed any information on the website it would call it an update. Changing tags, description, anything. Don't need to actually push an update through unity.

[red urchin]

Dont think so... no reason id have touched it

[stone marsh]

Welp.

[red urchin]

its no problem i dont care about that world anymore anyway, was just curious if something happened

[left raven]

posting this twice but im having an issue with my world not updateding properly it says that it hasent been updated sence the 3rd but i uploded an update for it last night

[finite phoenix]

hey i was about to upload but tis happened

i cant click or type anything

how do i fix this

[rain shadow]

In your console you have error pause enabled

If you look at the center top you will see your unity is paused

[finite phoenix]

omfg tysm im so f-ing dumb

ok i fell like im making a dumb mistake here but i still cant upload

[verbal blade]

alright i know someones going to yell at me or just be aggressive for no reason for asking but when i import a material file into unity it doesn't show up as a material, in a tutorial im watching they just drag and drop it into the folder and it shows as material but for me it just shows two files that are unreadable to unity. is there an option for unity to read these files or something? they're .usda and .usdc

[rain shadow]

Did you exit out and rebuild and its still like that?

[finite phoenix]

leave and re upload?

[gaunt egret]

you don't need those files to use them in unity

you already have the textures in, just need to make the material

[rain shadow]

yes without error pause enabled as it may prevent the upload window from loading properly and if that doesn't fix it you should check the errors in console

[gaunt egret]

also assuming that someone is going to "yell" at you probably isn't the best way to start off

usdc and usd are for mobile games tho so you're fine to just get rid of them

[verbal blade]

it always happens to me whenever i ask for help on a server so i just throw it out there to be ready for it, but ill try that then

[finite phoenix]

it still doesnt work

what do i do now

[rain shadow]

Well if you checked the errors and there isn't anything relating to the VRC SDK you could try restart unity. Otherwise not sure of anything else

[verbal blade]

they skipped over the step of making the material for some reason so it made it look like they just had it ready out of the file, thanks though

[spiral panther]

probably a small error. it it appears updated its good

[bold wren]

Is it possible to reassign player spawn transform via Udon?

[vague pivot]

Do you mean the position and direction a player spawns when they join the world?

[bold wren]

Yes, and respawn as well

[vague pivot]

For that you should just rotate/move the VRCWorld object or whatever object is defined as the respawn point

Or do you want to do it whilst the world is running?

[covert badge]

hi, do you know if it's possible to make dynamically generated structure?

for example when i walk somewhere it randomly generate a structure ?

[kind leaf]

yes procedural generation is possible...

[honest scarab]

I have my world shadings and lights keep glitching in mirror or flickering which is annoying any clue why or how to fix?

[vocal jetty]

so i deleted one asset from my world and it must have accidentally deleted all of my assets and i reopened the app cuz i thought it was just a glitch but apparently not. is there any way to retrieve them or open a previous save??

[vague pivot]

Anything deleted from unity goes into your recycling bin

[vocal jetty]

how would i get to that?

[vague pivot]

It's just the windows one, so ig search "Recycling bin" in the search bar

[vocal jetty]

i cant seem to find it x.x

[vague pivot]

Isn't it on your desktop?

[vocal jetty]

nvm im dumb i found it lol

thank u so fucking much i thought i lost all my work

[vague pivot]

npnp

[bold ibex]

seems like a safe assumption to me

[feral sun]

Hey I also just had this exact problem yesterday, and the solution I found for the scripts to be properly linked was to actually install the VRCBE 1.5.0 instead of the 1.5.1 (I just deleted the table and the 1.5.1 folder, and installed the 1.5.0 package instead). Mine works perfectly right now.

[gaunt egret]

ok?

its not really

ivenoticed people who usually act like that want people trying to help them to spoon feed them

[simple bone]

I just installed the source code and it worked perfect

[kind portal]

wy does it do this?

[crimson trench]

How do you add jumping

[vague pivot]

Should be in the game by default

[remote bobcat]

u need udon behaviour and script VRCWorldSettings

[south orbit]

have u tried to copy paste the start dots to the end ? are there any dots at the end of the animation like example the default ones

[south orbit]

u can add jump with udon behavior script

[bold ibex]

You are free to disagree but I have not been convinced.

[gaunt egret]

ok kiddo lol

[south orbit]

speaking of kiddo, if u arent here to help but just discuss ur own personal opinions then why are u even here, speaking of spoon feeding people is probably not giving any constructive way of helping anyone

[kind portal]

i dont undestand?

[south orbit]

so by default when u make animations there is those end dots by default to end the animation, im not saying it is the issue but perhaps it could be, u could try and copy paste the first 2 animation dots into the last section and see if it still moves ? otherwise u could try create a new anim and end it at 0,05 so it doesnt move ? assuming that the issue is the fact that u want it to be stale and not moving

[crimson trench]

So how do you change the spawn point

[vague pivot]

Move the VRCWorld gameobject

unless you assigned a custom respawn point

[crimson trench]

Ok

[kind portal]

i truyd but i didnt workd

[bold ibex]

...and with that last comment I rest my case. 😉

[trim fjord]

Hey all! I'm trying to build my 2nd world but I get this message in the Build tab of VRCSDK... Help! What's happening?

[vague pivot]

You need to have a VRCWorld prefab in your scene

It will be in your vrchat examples folder

[trim fjord]

Let's see here...

My imperator! Hail! Hail!

Thank you 😄

[kind leaf]

Using the vrcworld prefabs for the spawn location solves at least 40% of all issues had here. Perfect spawn pre setup, and player movement variables including jump. wish it were more commonly known/obvious. the CC app should include it in every world template

[feral sun]

Hello, for future reference, here's the solution to a problem I've struggled with for a few hours, if you have a UI slider that is not interactable in VRC but works fine within Unity (via CyanEmu for example), you might have forgotten to add a "VRC UI Shape" to the canvas of your slider, this makes the whole canvas generate the blue interaction line thingy, and then, you can move your slider.

[kind leaf]

this goes for ANY canvas that is interactable, not just a slider. VRC requires the VRC UI Shape component.

kinda silly but its just how they coded the VR interaction of UI's.

[feral sun]

Yes, it's just that I came across a a lot of advice in this channel for this particular problem (slider for world music and stuff like that), and most people were talking about layers, unchecking "raycast target", or overlapping UI, none would work for me, and I just randomly searched for a VRC UI component, and it just happened to be what was lacking lol

[kind leaf]

that's unfortunate. glad you got it sorted. Unity UI's only know issue in VRC is layers and only applies to drop down lists as of known. The only thing we need to apply is the vrc ui component which only adds a collider for the UI.

[long kite]

Does anybody know how to make a steerable car.

[kind leaf]

vrcprefabs.com there are a couple of cars. check em out and examine how they are coded if you want to write your own

[long kite]

Ok thank you.

Oh and one more question can you use vr interaction framework prefabs in your vrchat world.

[clear citrus]

i need help

it wont let me uplod

upload

[south orbit]

Greetings, so to best possible help u, it will require that u post more than u need help and it wont let u upload, are u recieving errors in ur console, are u missing the SDK and so on. Screenshots can be a big help towards such .

[kind portal]

i dont understand wy it doesent work on the ineract

[frigid estuary]

How do you sync an animator/animation clip to all users in a world? [SDK3]

I have a long animation loop (10 Minutes) that i would like to sync.

[sweet shore]

Hello, I'm having a little issue with uploading worlds, I've uploaded and updated countless worlds but last night I would build and test and it would load vrc for a few seconds then vrc would crash. Tried uploading, it was a successful upload but not showing in the "mine" tab. I'm using the recommended unity and most recent sdk. Is anyone else having this issue? I've restarted my program and pc

[sacred warren]

Does anyone have a simple "button menu" prefab anywhere or know of where I can find something similar? Just a list of buttons basically...

[sacred warren]

(note a singular menu, not just a bunch of unconnected buttons)

[crimson trench]

How do you make a button out of a door that when you click it you teleport to another spot

[drowsy umbra]

how to make your table walk throught but you can the card on top on the table

[wheat haven]

is there a way to get udon logs from an instance of the game that has crashed?

[bold ibex]

cane someone tell me why I keep updated my world and im not getting put in the recently updated and its also saying i havented updated it for a month on the website wich is wrong

[stone marsh]

Please stick to one thread and not cross post.

First, the website doesn't always show an update when you update.

Have you checked your console for errors?

What version of unity are you using?

[finite badger]

how do i upload a world for pc and quest

cause i tried switching target to android and it made it a quest but not a pc world

[stone marsh]

You switch back to the PC build target and upload it again.

#world-lighting

[final willow]

anyone have any idea why why my world would upload super slow then crash

[stone marsh]

Do you have "enable future proof" turned on in the sdk build panel settings?

[final willow]

yes

[stone marsh]

Dont

[final willow]

👍 let me try that

[reef dome]

Hello~ uhm could anyone help me? I'm uploading a world but i wanna put songs in it, like music worlds and such, but how would i do that? 😅 I've been looking on youtube how to, but all i get are toggles and stuff but not to add the actual songs in unity does anyone know? Ngl I'm running out of hope that someone will help me 🥺

And to also make the music quest compatible

So fellow questies and vibe too

[cobalt prawn]

If you have a file of a song like an mp3, you can just drag it into your Unity assets folder. Then to put it in your scene, you attach an audio source component to a gameobject, and drag your song into the field at the top of the audio source. Then you can customize stuff like whether it loops or not, how loud it is, whether it's spatialized and fades with distance, etc

[glad tiger]

Hi. I'm setting up my first world. Is the VRChat worlds Unity version the same as the Avatars version?

[glad bloom]

yes lol

[glad tiger]

I'm new to this, thanks

[glad tiger]

How do I make a texture "thinner" or more narrow? The wooden texture is to large on the floor.

[vocal jetty]

so with the usharp video prefab is there any way to have it so i can select from the list of songs i have?

[kind leaf]

uv map the surfaces correctly, or cheat and change the scale of the texture by inspecting the materials shader properties.

[vocal jetty]

when i try to publish my world it wont let me click on the options to enter text

[south orbit]

u can adjust the tiling + offset to do the trick for that

basicly these values

remember u can do example 0.5 or even -0.5 if liked / needed

[glad tiger]

I see

Thanks

[south orbit]

make sure u not on error pause and play mode when doing so

i mean it will put u in play mode when uploading but thats normal ofcourse .

[crimson trench]

How do I make a button that teleports you to a different place with Udon

is there any way to fix this?

[slow leaf]

anyone know how to get the grass sway effect?

[random spruce]

nevermind the problem went away

i don't even know why

[stone marsh]

Use a GPU grass shader.

[gaunt egret]

mmmm doesnt silent have one of those too?

can't remember

[long kite]

Hey guys when I put In a vrchat prefabs model in my vrchat I leave the project and start it up again the model has errors so the vrchat control panel goes away do you know how to fix it.

[bold ibex]

just trying to make a simple mirror toggle here i cant remember how anything in worlds works but i am having issue since it wont let me create a new program source its being annoying

[stone marsh]

You most likely have errors in your console

[stone marsh]

Without seeing the errors can't really help. Post a screenshot of the entire console window.

[bold ibex]

Figured it out

ok

now udon wontlet me find a set active

or anything

[silk needle]

Hey !

I can't find this content, does anyone have the name/link please ?

[stone marsh]

They're available on Red_Sims Patreon.

[finite phoenix]

[silk needle]

Thanks !

[finite phoenix]

can someone help me

[loud lily]

Whenever I go into the control panel to upload the world I'm currently working on, the entire builder tab is just blank.

[finite phoenix]

you need to add a vrc scene descriptor

i had to deal with this as well

[loud lily]

ah ok, thank you

[finite phoenix]

yw

[gaunt egret]

vrcworld

the descriptor is on the world

[gaunt egret]

where you put the vrcworld is where people will spawn

[finite phoenix]

also can you help me

the upload button wont work

[bold ibex]

ok

[gaunt egret]

just ask

[bold ibex]

[gaunt egret]

#udon-general

[finite phoenix]

the upload button wont work can you help

[gaunt egret]

no because i dont know why it doesnt work

i say "just ask" because some one else might know

[finite phoenix]

oh ok

[gaunt egret]

dont hound the people helping someone else

[stone marsh]

Post a screenshot of your entire console. You most likely have errors. No need to spam your issue either. Someone will help when they can

[finite phoenix]

ok

i cant screen shot so i made a video

[stone marsh]

I can't zoom in on a video....

Go to console.

Press clear
Top right corner, hide the warning triangles
Only show the red stop sign errors.
Press Windows key + shift + S to take a screenshot of just the console.

[finite phoenix]

ok

[stone marsh]

You need to exit play mode...

Least I can see the issue I think

[finite phoenix]

what is the issue

[stone marsh]

Exit play mode and take another screenshot so I can be sure.

Can't be in play mode for that

[finite phoenix]

ok

[stone marsh]

sigh

I need to see the red error stop sign like mentioned above

does anyone know of a rainy window shader compatible for quest?

[remote mortar]

i just had to fix a major problem while testing my world im making a peice of the world fell threw the ground. so i put box colliders on it as that the right thing to do?

[stone marsh]

Do you have udon sharp installed?

[rugged spire]

Anyone know where I can find wall textures?

[long kite]

Yah but I just looked and found out I need udontoolkit got it installed and errors disappeared.

[kind leaf]

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

[stone marsh]

Freepbr is a good site. Or just Google free pbr textures.

[rugged spire]

Awesome, thank you!

Sorry, extremely new to Unity

[stone marsh]

Always important to read listed dependencies before installing assets

[rugged spire]

Gotcha!

[long kite]

Yah lol

[long kite]

But I have an error on a non vrchat project it says endlayoutgroup beginlayout group must be called first what doesn’t that mean.

[long kite]

I meant does that mean.

[stone marsh]

Always show a screenshot of your console if you want help

If it's not related to vrc tho....

[remote mortar]

anyone know how to fix this

[stone marsh]

Fix what?

Just looks like your camera is inside the mesh of the mountain.

[solemn gulch]

Does it look like this when you spawn in?

[remote mortar]

no

i can walk threw the asset

do i just need to add box coliders

[solemn gulch]

You'll need to add colliders then~ I think the Mesh Collider does what you want it to do, just add it as a component onto the instance

[remote mortar]

ok thanks

[solemn gulch]

It takes the model into account

[remote mortar]

thank you so much

[solemn gulch]

I would recommend using box colliders and other simpler ones whenever you can, but for things like these it would get too complicated otherwise

If you have a couch or something I would just go with a few boxes ^^'

[rugged spire]

Is there a way to create trim around the walls, doors, windows, etc.?

Or is this something I'll have to create from scratch?

[fickle bison]

so i need help importing a model from blender because some parts of my model are invisible on the inside and visible on the other

[gaunt egret]

flip your normals

[fickle bison]

how?

[gaunt egret]

1sec im opening blender lol

[fickle bison]

i just

lost all my stuff

fuck

nvm

@gaunt egret where do i click to invert normals

i think i found it

[gaunt egret]

youll need to turn on face orentiation first

[fickle bison]

i did that

thoe

now i see the stuff thats invis on the inside is red how do i invert it

[stone marsh]

Normals>flip

[fickle bison]

where

[gaunt egret]

blue is the side the texture will be showng on

[stone marsh]

Need to select the appropriate faces of course with the face selection

[gaunt egret]

pc why - i cropped that

[fickle bison]

bruh

[gaunt egret]

red is the side thats "invisible"

you don't just flip all of them

[fickle bison]

thanks

[rich trellis]

can anyone please tell me why i keep getting this while trying to update a world ive uploaded. I have a few worlds uploaded now never had this issue before.

[fickle bison]

how do i make a material in unity emit light

[long kite]

I might of got it in trying to get gorilla tag locomotion so that’s why it might of broke because the code wont work with car like it used to.

[long kite]

I meant Xr not car

[long kite]

Some kind of shader might be toon lit but probably not.

[white moon]

Check the emissive checkbox and turn up it's intensity

[pearl plume]

anyone know why the builder is empty?

[long kite]

Glitch I think try restarting unity.

[pearl plume]

Apparently it happens when there isn't an Animator attached to the avatar.

[gaunt egret]

yeah

[long kite]

Oh yah that makes sense I remember that I thought it was world ask.

[gaunt egret]

wait avatar?

you need the vrcworld prefab

this is for worlds lol

[long kite]

Do you know how to make the car prefab steerable.

[gaunt egret]

no idea. probably an udon question

i use remote control cars :p

[pearl plume]

same thing happened with my world tho so didn't know if it would be the same fix or different

[gaunt egret]

need to ask in the right channel

avatar or world

[fickle bison]

ok

i just switched my world build target to android and now its asking for a VRCAvatarDescriptor

i didnt touch the SDK

[stone marsh]

If you're making an avatar you should move to #avatar-general

[fickle bison]

Im not

im trying to make a world

[stone marsh]

Are you using the sdk for worlds?

There are two separate SDKs

[fickle bison]

and i switched from windows build target to andriod and its now asking for avitar descripter

also yes

im useing the world sdk

[stone marsh]

Show error

[fickle bison]

all i did was hit "Switch to android build target"

[gaunt egret]

do you have the vrcworld prefab in your scene

weird its asking for avatar stuff

[fickle bison]

IK

im useing the VrChat Creator Companion

[gaunt egret]

why did they release it in its current state🤦‍♀️

[fickle bison]

what

whats so bad with it

[gaunt egret]

because its beta

its not awful because of that, its just that its new so people don't know

if its asking for avatar things i can only guess that its actually the avatar sdk

but, again, try putting the vrcworld prefab into your scene where you want people to spawn in and see if the builder is any different

if not, you need to go to #creator-companion

[fickle bison]

how do i add colliders to my world

[steady quiver]

does anybody know where i can find something along the lines of... eh its hard to explain. i need something that allows players to "send messages" (or values) from in game to a website or something or even a bot that you run on your pc

[fickle bison]

how do i add collison to my world because right now im just passing through everything

[neon umbra]

Anyone mind helping me out here?

I can't launch my world with the "Build and Test" button anymore. Pretty sure I've gone wrong importing something.

[obtuse holly]

hello, how do you implement a 3rd person camera for desktop?

i did read that its just putting a camera with higher priority than 1

but i have not been able to make it work

[gaunt egret]

click on your mesh in the hierarchy tab and add a "mesh collider" component

or whatever your floor mesh is in the hierarchy

[fickle bison]

i got that working

so i added a collider to everything

also how do i make a toogleable mirror or is that a prefab i can use

[gaunt egret]

this is probably a #udon-general thing or its something you do on avatar's themselves

[obtuse holly]

oh thanks ill jump to udon

[gaunt egret]

theres mirror prefabs you can use yeah

i have one

[fickle bison]

may i have it?

[gaunt egret]

yeah im diggin for it lol

[fickle bison]

lol

[neon umbra]

Now I've got a different problem. I can't bring up the SDK Control Panel.

[slow void]

Question, I'm rather new to VRChat as a whole, what tools are recommended for newbie world developers?

[sacred warren]

I have hidden stock video players being used for background ambience audio pulled in from YouTube. It works perfectly for the host but doesn't seem to play for anyone else, any ideas what I'm likely missing here? Does synchronisation need to be enabled for this to work?

[near escarp]

https://github.com/Varneon/WorldCreatorAssistant

[livid kite]

Does anyone know anything about porting goldsrc bsp's to unity? There's some maps from half-life mods I'd like to run around in for nostalgia

[slow void]

Legend, Thank you!

[craggy lichen]

Is there a way I can get phybones imported to my world project?

[cobalt prawn]

I know there are add-ons for blender, not sure which ones are best or if half life bsp is different from quake bsp but once you got it there you can export from blender to unity real easy

[rugged spire]

What I've managed so far. I keep having an issue where some of the walls or other objects are see through at certain angles, depending on the texture or material that I apply to them. Any ideas what may be causing this?

[livid kite]

Nice! That helps point me in the right direction. Hopefully it would work for both since goldsrc had a lot of q1 dna

[crimson sand]

why do some of my textures come out as error

[unkempt turtle]

got a picture of it?

[neon umbra]

I've built a world and it'll build and run just fine as the playtest thing, from the control panel. However, I've uploaded it as a private world online, and every single time I or my friend tries to access it, it loads, initializes, and immediately before launching into the world, it crashes and kicks us back to our home worlds.

Anyone have any idea what's going on here?

[dusk sapphire]

go grab https://github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit which can spot common issues that causes that

most common one being multiple pipeline managers in your scene iirc

[neon umbra]

Yeah, someone from another server just told me that, and it was the problem. Thanks for the help!

[bold ibex]

Anyone got any ideas?

Idk how to fix this anymore

happened after baking lights

[vague pivot]

I got that from overlapping uvs before

Causes weird bright glowing blobs

[remote mortar]

anyone know how to make the mirror toggleable

[solemn gulch]

There's a lot of tutorials online for this! Just do a quick youtube search

[remote mortar]

ok thanks

[ivory plank]

Been having a weird issue recently, my PC bluescreens when I try to upload any of my worlds, avatars are fine however. Both memory and CPU diagnostics came back fine, would it be an issue with the SDK or Unity version?

[minor nexus]

dose anyone have a link to the person that made the walking sfx prefab really want to include it in my world trying to go really in depth with my sound design

[gaunt egret]

could check vrcprefabs, im looking for something similar lol

[minor nexus]

i did couldn't find it or im just dumb and just didnt see it

[sacred warren]

So I was just cleaning up a legacy SDK2 project, got rid of the SDK, loaded in the newest SDK2 from the website (under the legacy section) and...

Why are there references to SDK3? Is the newest SDK2 on the website scuffed?

[gaunt egret]

it might be because sdk2 is deprecated

[sacred warren]

Deprecated != We broke it by including things that clearly won't work

[gaunt egret]

shrug, there might not have been one on there then. vrcprefabs is community based prefabs

eventually sdk2 will be removed and unable to upload using it

[sacred warren]

I am aware

Hence why I'm cleaning up the world now.

I don't fancy redoing the whole thing due to the lack of converter and the amount of time it would take.

[stone marsh]

It's pretty easy and there is a conversion tool. There's also Cyan Triggers which lets you setup all your actions using a similar visual editor to sdk2 so you don't need to learn udon.

There's also references to sdk2 in the sdk3 sdk. It's just how they're written. Sdk itself still works. But obviously sdk2 should be moved away from as fast as possible. There's absolutely no reason to use it anymore whatsoever outside of stubbornness or laziness

[sacred warren]

Or maybe I have a life outside of VRChat and don't have the several evenings spare it'll take to redo everything?

The audacity to just assume "laziness". Get out of here.

[stone marsh]

It doesn't take much time or effort.

[sacred warren]

You literally have no idea what the world is or how much it has set up in it. You're in no position to make that assumption.

[stone marsh]

Just came to provide feedback and offer some useful tools. My world was absolutely massive with an absurd amount of triggers and actions, animations, and scope. Took me a single evening. It's really not a lot of work. Always happy to help share knowledge or information on how to make it go smoothly and provide tools to make the transition easy and seamless. But no worries. Good luck!

[green lagoon]

https://github.com/CyanLaser/CyanTrigger/wiki/SDK2-to-Udon-Migration

[stone marsh]

Yee. There it is. Awesome tool.

[sacred warren]

"Currently the Migration system is only available on my Patreon, but as more features are added, it will be released for free" . It's said that for nearly a year now and still isn't free. In fact none of that seems to have been updated since shortly after it was originally first added.

[stone marsh]

And?

You don't need to buy that if you don't want to. Their cyan triggers is free

[sacred warren]

And, unsurprisingly after spending so long making stuff for free, I'm reluctant to pay for something to port something which I'm being forced to do. Literally paying to work. I'll leave it.

I don't need CyanTriggers, I'd just end up redoing it myself in something Udon related, it's the time that is the issue or more the fact it needs to be done at all.

[stone marsh]

Cyantriggers IS udon related....

It allows for quickly building complex udon behaviors using a similar visual UI style to SDK2s triggers and actions.

[bold ibex]

Its definitely frustrating but to help reassure you if u made logic in sdk2 its probably simple so redoing it wont be too terrible

[stone marsh]

Not to mention the sheer amount of pre made scripts ready to go you can use with SDK3. Such as Jetdogs udon prefabs free on his GitHub. There's very little logic you'd need to actually create. By this point in time, there's probably a prefab for about anything.

Certainly all the basic important things, like area triggers, toggles, bone followers, etc

[plush bough]

How do I disable flying/no clipping for client users in my world

[stone marsh]

You don't.

[plush bough]

Then how some worlds have it?

[stone marsh]

Gunna be blunt. Discussion of these things isn't allowed here. Some modifications may allow setting a tag to prevent it, but other modifications don't. Toxic mods don't give a shit and there's no way to stop everyone, only potentially some using specific mods. These questions aren't for this discord and shouldn't be elaborated on here.

[plush bough]

I see, thank you for telling me

[stone marsh]

No worries. Don't mean to be blunt. Just gotta follow the rules.

That said, there are methods using udon that can detect if a user isn't grounded and perform specific actions if they aren't grounded for too long. But people can bypass that too so it's kinda pointless for the overhead it requires.

[green lagoon]

and you probably have better things to be doing with your world than trying to engage in a arms race against cheaters

[stone marsh]

Yeah. Tends to just put a target on the world tbh

[plush bough]

I just don’t want people to just fly around my maze or other game modes thts all

But thank you all anyway, appreciated

[stone marsh]

Yeah fair. You can always use area triggers to unload areas and ensure you use protected methods.

If you have an area trigger and it calls a script when a player enters it, use a underscore at the start so it can't be called over the network by mod users. That way unless they go the correct route as intended, the areas won't load.

Example would be trigger sends _trigger to a script.

Using an underscore at the start prevents it from being called over the network by clients.

Sections of your maze or game could have invisible gates, triggers that the player has to pass through for the next part of the game or maze to function appropriately

If someone is flying or no clipping, these triggers wouldn't work, and if underscores are used, they can't be force called.

[stone marsh]

Good level design is the most effective tool. Good luck

[south thunder]

can anyone identify this flying prefab? found it in a world and it was very fun

[green lagoon]

https://booth.pm/en/items/1564685 I'm not sure if it's the exact one but a free to download flying system

[south thunder]

nah thats definitely not it, the one im looking for involves flapping your arms

[kind leaf]

try neo-flight @ vrcprefabs.com

*flap ur arms to fly

[glad hawk]

Hello, is it possible to use the SDK into a MAC OS?

[kind leaf]

Not officially. You'ed have to look into emulators/vm. Its only officially supported on PC

[south thunder]

peptron1's neo-flight is similar but doesnt have the gliding, and the flapping is a little different. I hope the one I found isnt just like a custom modification on that one or something

[small pond]

does anyone know how to make a custom avatar pedestal like use a custom object i cant seem to figure it out

[kind leaf]

I didnt see anything in a *quick Google search but there are a few YouTube videos that popped, maybe one covers that stuff. Dunno, but gl on your journey!

[harsh swan]

I trying to get all the sizes of character sit in one chair, it will be different height and some will fly high above, have you solved it?

[sacred warren]

Can anyone confirm that the SDK2 is actually broken at this point in time? It does appear to be completely broken now, though Unity hasn't change since it last worked so it would seem they've broken the SDK...

I wonder if I can find an old version somewhere..

[stone marsh]

Would be helpful if you explained your issue and showed your console, showing all red stop sign errors.

[kind leaf]

updating to the latest sdk2 would have been all you needed. But how long ago did you make your world? Are you using Unity 2018? Because the conversion from old to new isnt as simple as importing the new sdk if the unity version is also outdated

[hollow condor]

Hey fellas, is there any way I can assign players a tag at runtime for unity? I have a custom skybox that is meant for VR but I need a player prefab and a camera

[kind leaf]

yeah, its kinda in the sdk already but abandoned or forgotten. Its been unfinished and not touched since I started over a year ago

[hollow condor]

You talking about player tags?

[kind leaf]

yep, its covered in the docs somewhere... But like I said, they let it go, its still in udon but broken asf

you can do your own version by making objects auto attach to players as they join

[hollow condor]

Oh, my bad just didn't know if you were responding to me.

Thats not a bad idea

[stone marsh]

I mean, what kind of tag do you want specifically because you're able to get a username and do things based on username or based on VR vs desktop.

[hollow condor]

Like making a invisible gameobject spawn with the player?

@stone marsh I just specifically need to reference the player in a paid asset I got a while back.

[stone marsh]

Elaborate on what you mean by that

[fresh charm]

can anyone gimme a quick tutorial on making a feild or hill for a castle to sit on

[hollow condor]

I have a skybox which has a day and night cycle I want

But you need to reference the player

[stone marsh]

Is this even for vrc? Because what I'm seeing wouldn't work in vrc

[kind leaf]

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Unity+Terrain+2019 or replace Unity in the search with Blender

[stone marsh]

You can't reference the camera like that because the camera is generated at runtime using your settings. But the same camera isn't used.

[hollow condor]

Ah, dang

well worth a shot I suppose

[fresh charm]

all that stuff looks so realistic tho i just want like a sorta cartoonish grassfeild with my ruined castle ;-;

[hollow condor]

@fresh charm you can do that

search low poly

[kind leaf]

It's also important to note that paid assets wont work by default if they rely on c# scripts. You need to rewrite them in UdonSharp.

[stone marsh]

Look up GPU grass shaders. There are a few free ones on various githubs that can look fairly toonish. Most of the good ones are paid however. Such as STIX GPU grass and grass flow. There's also XS grass which is free on Xiexe's github

[hollow condor]

@kind leaf really? dang

[kind leaf]

yeah but C# and U# are 1:1. so its an easy process. There are a few things removed, and a few things added, but visually its the same

backend, its foreign as fk but we dont need to worry about that

[hollow condor]

I have a strange hatred for visual scripting

[kind leaf]

likewise, UdonSharp isnt VS

[hollow condor]

oh? Sorry Im coming back after a hiatus

i was under the impression udon was a visual script

[kind leaf]

https://github.com/vrchat-community/UdonSharp but its in the templats if you are using the Creator Companion

[sacred warren]

It was already a Unity 2019 project (I updated it to that ages ago). I updated the SDK because I was rebaking the lighting, but the new SDK is just... unusable. I just copied over a slightly older version of the SDK from an old avatar project and that one isn't riddled with errors.

[stone marsh]

Elaborate on issue and show a screenshot of your entire console showing only red stop sign errors if you want someone to be able to help

[hollow condor]

@kind leaf oh cool stuff, thanks

never knew it was 1:1

[stone marsh]

*ish lol

[sacred warren]

I already did, scroll back up.

#world-development message

[stone marsh]

It's cropped. Couldn't tell if it's all of the errors or even at the top of the list

[sacred warren]

That's all the red errors.

[kind leaf]

pro tip; always start at the top of the list, and the error causing the error is usually in the top 5 but we want to see at least 20 error from the top down

[sacred warren]

That's literally. The. Entire. List. There is no more to show you.

I'm not sure what you're asking here, I can't show you errors that aren't there.

[hollow condor]

Anyone know a good night skybox? Was using an HDRI but its fairly ugly.

Might get AllSky on the asset store

[stone marsh]

Cool. I'll take a look when I'm not in the glaring sun or someone else will. Just asked for uncropped purely because many times people say it's all errors but then the error notification shows lots more. Happens way more than you'd expect.

[kind leaf]

AllSky is good, its not an hdri its an actual sky, but good

[stone marsh]

Isn't that one a C# skybox? Oh wait. It's just the static one with different cubes irrc

Red_Sims beautiful sky is absolutely a breath taking skybox but it's paid on his Patreon. Supports day/night cycles and lots of customization

[hollow condor]

doesnt red sims also make that vrchat water shader?

He does good work

thats worth looking at

[stone marsh]

Yes. Awesome water shader. I've bought all his stuff. Def worth the quality if you want to pay

The skybox is very customizable

[sacred warren]

I cropped it so it would be readable otherwise it would be tiny. So to add to this, if I try using an older version of SDK2, I get harmless errors (the ones complaining about triggers firing too early, which is a log-only bug VRC brought in at some point) but it doesn't get to the upload part I assume because they've changed the API and the SDK this old can't communicate with it anymore. So I'll switch back to the "new" more broken one as that's at least the one I should be using.

[stone marsh]

You can set the sun's position to that of the direction of a directional light, and fix that directional light on a pickup to let users change the day/night settings too.

[hollow condor]

Thats dope

I'm going to get that

[stone marsh]

Hope it works out. If ya wanna see it before u buy, it's in my world 11foot8 bridge as well as Sky Pool, sky pool has a pickup like I mentioned but 11foot8 is pushing the visual styling that it can do

[hollow condor]

I'll check it out now

Also, does anyone know that water droplet shader I see everyone using. I found one for my windows but I'm looking for that one thats similar to room of the rain and stuff

Was about to make my own

[stone marsh]

Yeah. It's a shadertoy shader that's been converted.

Its available all over the net. Super commonly converted on a ton of githubs

[hollow condor]

Thanks man, appreciate the help

[stone marsh]

https://github.com/yumayanagisawa/Unity-Raindrops

I'm on my phone and it's hard to see the screen but this should be one. If it's not, I apologize. I'll try and link one later if I remember.

[hollow condor]

No worries, I went to google and found it on github. You're right it's everywhere.

lmao

[mental plume]

hello um i would like help on how to make a room lock and open the door

[hollow condor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJfhG8-KGvs

[mental plume]

oh wow um thank u

[hollow condor]

Might be a start

idk if its exactly what you want though

[glad hawk]

Just to make sure, download a public world to start something based on it is not possible, right?

[stone marsh]

If you mean downloading a world from the game, absolutely not.. That's called theft. Ripping is bannable.

[left rain]

there's some paid and possibly some free ones out there that people have released? if you wonder why there's like 100 identical "cabin on a lake" worlds it's because of a popular paid asset. you could start with something like that if you learn better by reverse engineering

a ripped world wouldn't help you much anyways because you wouldn't be able to actually open up the project file and see how everything is laid out

[hollow condor]

try sketchfab

or a similar site, there's always stuff you can convert that isnt a vrchat specific level

[stone marsh]

No. You can't. Period. Rule 9. #rules

[hollow condor]

something like that

but yeah

[glad hawk]

Ok, I would not see like thief if the author allow for public use or something ,As I am new maybe I am asking dumb questions, sorry for that.

thanks all for the updates

[glad bloom]

You really didn't need to put it like that. Also you could just say that talking about this kinda thing here (here as in this discord), no matter what, isn't allowed.

But lol imagine... I'll prolly have to play this game during work hours 👍

How long does support usually take to respond?

[mental plume]

i dont know

[stone marsh]

Yes I did. Ripping is theft. There's no other way to word it. You need to be blunt so people firmly understand it's absolutely not allowed and will result in being banned. Had I just said it's possible but don't do it, like the other dude, the person may take away that they should go and do research on how it may or may not be possible, do something stupid, and wind up being perm banned because of misleading information.

[stone marsh]

The author of any given content is the one that controls how the content is accessed. If they allow their content to be public, it means it's able to be used within the confines of how the game is setup. It's a violation of TOS to extract content from the game, and is indeed theft. Because you are no longer using the content in the manner in which it was allowed to be used. A lot of content is made using paid assets, these assets are bought by the author of said content and the author is granted a license by the creator of those assets to use them in a specific manner, sharing those paid assets with other people outside of the license agreement is a violation of that license and can be seen as further theft.

You are not allowed to reverse engineer, modify, or extract any portion of the game regardless of if it's public or not. Period. This is not only a violation of TOS. But it's also theft, as you do not hold the copyright, nor the license, to that content.

If you want free worlds, there are a ton of free worlds available for users to use and do whatever they please with available on Booth.pm. you're free to download any of the free worlds offered on there, and have fun with it. Learn, play, change. Do whatever. This is the ideal route to go.

[bold ibex]

I just switched to Linux yesterday, I copied my vrc world I'm working on and when I tried to open it theres an error saying the license is invalid how can I fix this

Maybe logging in would help.... I swear I need to stop thinking every error is complicated

[small pond]

does anyone know how people do icons/crowns that float above certain users heads in their world

[elder shell]

um any help with this? it just tells me this and thats kinda it

[stone marsh]

You have errors in your console.

[elder shell]

like?

and how do i fix it

[stone marsh]

I wouldn't know. You need to check your console and look at the red stop sign errors or share a screenshot showing the entire console. You can hide the yellow triangles and info blurbs in the top right corner of the console before you take a screenshot. Only the red stop sign errors matter.

[elder shell]

theres this

[stone marsh]

Please share a screenshot of your entire console, hiding the info blurbs and yellow triangles like I mentioned

[elder shell]

like this?

[stone marsh]

Your console tab is in the bottom left above your asset folder

[elder shell]

OH sorry English isnt really my first language

[stone marsh]

Well, I can already tell you're using the wrong version of unity

[stone marsh]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/current-unity-version#:~:text=The current Unity version in use by VRChat is Unity 2019.4.

[normal arrow]

I was just going to say.

[elder shell]

thats the one i downloaded but it gave me that one for some reason

[stone marsh]

You probably selected the wrong one when you created your project

You can change it in Hub if you did indeed download 2019.4.31f1

[elder shell]

mayhaps but now its downloading!!

[normal arrow]

Do you have the unity hub downloaded? When you create a project, make sure it's the currently supported 2019 unity and current SDK.

[elder shell]

i do

[stone marsh]

Gl. Don't see any other issues since your project is empty. Cheers

[elder shell]

thank you!!

bruh!

how do i fix this issue?? it keeps doing this even after attempts of fixing

[mental plume]

my pens are not writing in my world and don't know y

[glad hawk]

tks man, I don't have the knowledge to do reverse engineer, or stuff like that. And I agree that this is criminal, but isn't that what I was referring to.

[worthy niche]

hey does anyone know how to get the vrc section back here on the right

next to the lighting part

[stone marsh]

Wat

[worthy niche]

you know the thing where you can make builds of your world

i can't find it anymore

this thing

[stone marsh]

It's the VRChat menu tab

Very top. On the menu bar

[worthy niche]

this one?

[stone marsh]

You have errors in your console

Errors prevent build. So sdk pan
nel can't show up

Either look at the errors in your console, or screenshot the entire console. You can hide the warning triangles and info blurbs in the top right corner of the console. Only the red stop signs matter

[worthy niche]

could it be these what are causing it

do you know how to resolve these?

i got the other one fixed but what about this one?

[stone marsh]

Please show the entire console.

[worthy niche]

i got the thing working after i fixed that one red thing and now the other one is gone aswell

thanks for the help!

[cobalt prawn]

Man they oughta change the SDK so it just says "Check your console for errors to resolve!" if it can't load the builder panel or something 😅

At least start newbies off with that first step toward troubleshooting

[worthy niche]

i got into world making yesterday so i basically understand nothing of this lmao

[cobalt prawn]

Yeah, you're not alone! I just say this cause "why can't I access the build panel" is by far the most asked question in here and the answer is always "check for errors and resolve them". Usually people still need help resolving the errors which is fine of course, but a simple message in the SDK would go a long way I think

Not that this is the place to ask for that or anything, not sure where I'd actually request that change. Just commenting about it 😛

[stone marsh]

Pretty much all I dealt with today was exactly that.

[cobalt prawn]

I noticed 😆

[stone marsh]

Scroll up. And up. And up

[cobalt prawn]

Bless your soul merc

[worthy niche]

it's great that there are people like you helping out here

[stone marsh]

There's a lot of great, highly knowledgeable people in here

With basically no life and a lot of free time. Lmao

Either way. Cheers

[neon umbra]

There's a way to rotate, move, rescale, all that a group of objects dynamically, right? I feel like I'm going insane, but I remember being able to do so 20 minutes ago and now I can't.

I'm trying to rescale a group of objects that I've select with CTRL+Left Click, but what happens is that the scaling applies to each object individually, rather than as a whole. I.E., I'm trying to make a bartop, but realized that I made it far too long. I'm trying to rescale it to not be as long, but I'm finding that each object simply scales by itself, rather than the entire thing becoming smaller at once.

Well now I know that i can. I just did so in a different unity project. Did I accidentally change a setting?

Nevermind! Found it. I somehow changed the setting "Pivot" to "Center".

[burnt bison]

hi how long does it take to upload my own world to vrchat?

[stone marsh]

Typically just a few min.

If you mean getting to the rank to be able to upload, there is no timeframe since it's not based on time and varies heavily from user to user depending on how you interact with the game.

[grim cedar]

Anyone know anything about this question?
#world-development message

[stone marsh]

Need to use a script to ensure placement of avatar in station properly regardless of size. Reimajo has a very well made chair prefab on his Booth page.

[grim cedar]

Thanks for the answer. 🙂 Is the Booth site the same as mentioned above?

Found it, nevermind. 😄

[merry chasm]

can we already trigger avatar dynamic things inside of sdk3 worlds?
or is avatar dynamics only avatars rn~

[brisk ocean]

av3 only right now

[merry chasm]

oki ❤️

[lunar ridge]

Hey, I'm trying to add a photobooth/camera to my world, is there a guide I can follow to do this? I can't seem to find anything, thanks!

[bold ibex]

new to udon*
i want to make toggle animations like what i do with an avatar so that i can switch between 2 differant lighting modes that will toggle off 1 particle system and light source and toggle 1 light source and particle system any tutorials that are simple and short or any help is appreciated

[glad bloom]

Tbh I guess I assumed they didn't mean ACTUAL ripping

He did say "download", but yeah lol

[glad bloom]

Btw if you prefer just doing stuff in C# rather than visual programming, you can always use Udonsharp

[bold ibex]

never done any form of programmming in c sharp

[crimson sand]

can someone help me with this

[drowsy umbra]

omg im not the only one

like the the builder is always disappearing

and i always have to basically reload the sdk dont work and i have to put the sdk package back in my unity even if i already have the sdk in my project some reason the builder comes back and thats how i had to fix it

but still wont work just the builder not there

over time

[restive vortex]

what is happing with the sdk i can get to the control panel

[drowsy umbra]

idk

[upper obsidian]

What happens is that you don't even read the requirements before you import anything into the project.
Install UdonSharp

[restive vortex]

ok how do i do that

[upper obsidian]

https://github.com/vrchat-community/UdonSharp/releases/download/v0.20.3/UdonSharp_v0.20.3.unitypackage

[restive vortex]

thank you

the thing is my project what do i do next

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPdWkxUSZ65Fp6ICrU7mIq1znAfPwMhNZ

it has a text version as well: https://vrclibrary.com/wiki/books/create-your-first-vrchat-world

[crimson sand]

ok so i made a world but when i join it i get sent back to my home world why?

[crimson sand]

i need more help for some reason when i spawn in my world i keep falling and respawning

[drowsy umbra]

How can i make my table walkthrough at the same time i can place the cards on top

[stone marsh]

You need to add colliders to your meshes.

[stone marsh]

Set the table to a layer that doesn't collide with the player layer in the layer matrix. Then create a custom layer for the cards, and set it so they only collide with the table in the layer matrix.

[glad tiger]

I need some help. Upon importing USharpVideo, all my mirrors turn white.

I tried it with a different player and it continues to turn my mirrors white.

Anyone know how to fix it?

[fossil hull]

Anyone knows how to update ambient light after switching the skybox?

DynamicGI.UpdateEnvironment() apparently doesn't work in udon.

[stone marsh]

I assume this only happens in editor and if you build and test or upload the world they're fine?

[glad tiger]

I imported a new one, and it used to display white, but then it reloaded and it works fine in the editor, and in game.

No more white

[small pond]

anyone know how i can pass the --enable-debug-gui flag when using the sdk's build and test feature

[stone marsh]

In the future, if you see that. It won't be that way in game if you actually upload it. You can also fix it simply by entering play mode then exiting play mode.

[glad tiger]

Thanks

[proven zinc]

So I've created a world with the VRChat Contect Creator tool and it's missing the VRC Input Field script. WDID?

[wanton flame]

update the SDK. mine wasn't updated even though I created it with that too too

even after doing that mine won't upload tho and i have no idea why

[wanton flame]

update: was just an issue that the project made by that app was broken. made a new one, ported across the assets and now it works

[minor nexus]

anyone knows of a good media player with playlist functions besides pro tv cant get it to work for the life of me

[vivid wagon]

I watched this series! helped me a lot with my first map, but I never finished it (obviously)

speaking of maps

i have a teleport function here in udon, but it will only play once and will not reset

single use teleports, in other words

[stone marsh]

ProTV is the best by far. If you can't get it to work, you're most likely not following the directions, such as not installing UdonSharp first. Posting a screenshot of your console so we can see the errors or Join the protv discord would be a good idea.

[minor nexus]

i had the developer try to help me out and he was super short with me and seemed like he did not really care so dont feel like supporting them tbh

[stone marsh]

Lmao

[cobalt prawn]

Just using a different player than protv isn't necessarily gonna be easier if you're not understanding how to import and set them up correctly

🤷‍♂️

[stone marsh]

It's def a user error. ProTV has the best playlist support and customization by far. But reading instructions and listed dependencies is important. Failing to do so, will result in everything breaking.

You're also not supporting anyone, it's free.

Regardless. If you don't want to share the issues you had, or share a screenshot of your console so we can help you fix it, then I'll just say good luck!

[white moon]

Lol whatchu mean? He wasn't short, answered all the questions and told you the issue would be getting solved in a week or so

[stone marsh]

Ooooh. They're using the new CC and U1.0 beta aren't they?

[white moon]

Yup

[stone marsh]

That makes sense then. UdonSharp 1.0 beta broke a ton of scripts from everyone's assets.

Upgrading to, and using beta software always has risks of issues. Sticking with release versions until things are ironed out is best if you're not understanding of that.

[white moon]

Yup I ain't touching it till it's finished

[stone marsh]

Same. Lot of my paid scripts have issues with it. But everyone's working on it. Just takes a bit of time. I see the potential for CC and the future of U# so I'm excited regardless

[white moon]

Well not for anything I need to actually finish anyway. I've gave it a little try in a test project.

[stone marsh]

Indeed.

[minor nexus]

@white moon well he said like to keep on retrying to upload and just saying good and to succeed or fail and good luck was kinda harsh ngl hopefully he dont treat people that pay for his stuff like that

but its whatever got u# player to work fine

[white moon]

Is rather someone wish me luck than not. And to retry is literally the best way to try fix it since it's a I ity package issue that sometimes occurs in the beta version. 🤷‍♂️
The answer to anyone would be the same. Retry or don't use the beta version as the stable version works just fine.

[gaunt egret]

^

protv works fine lol

[shell wren]

Is there a reason why a concave mesh collider would behave fine in CyanEmu, but have problems in an actual build? I've got this race track, and when I drive on it in a build the circled section has collision problems where my car just gets thrown off the track. That's the only place it happens. Another difference is that all throughout the track it's harder to steer than in CyanEmu, as if I lose traction for no reason.

This is all one huge mesh so I still have to try dividing it up. It just seems strange to me that it would behave so differently in CyanEmu vs. real build.

[white moon]

Dividing it up would probably be advisable, as checking against an objects mesh clider means you have to check against every face of that mesh so your checking against the whole track.

Now I'm just assuming here and someone will tell me if Im wrong but I'm assuming unity does some background magic and if your far enough away from an objects bounds it won't check for all those colissions.

[foggy creek]

First time in VR chat today, coming from mostly creating Altspace worlds; wondering if it’s possible to upload an animation in the world I create in unity. Also, does VRchat let you have scripts in your project?

Thanks all!

[tiny wolf]

Would like to request for video players to work for Quest 2 plzzzzz 😭 🙏

[gaunt egret]

lol

[green lagoon]

here's the documentation on the programming language vrchat uses https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/what-is-udon and yeah animation stuff works just fine in vrchat

[green lagoon]

video players function on the quest just not YouTube

[brisk tendon]

joining world redirects to home world, fix?

works fine with build and test, but not when uploaded

[dusk sapphire]

Most common cause is multiple pipeline managers in your scene

[short forum]

So this is actually a funny thing that happened, but an unattended feature. I created a custom model for a mirror so it can match the wall behind it (Triangular instead of square) and added the mirror reflect shader along with the component, but doesn't want to render anything, UNTIL I add the mirror FBX, of which it can figure out how to render properly so long as the camera has line of sight of the mirror FBX from the SDK. As soon as it loses line of sight, it no longer can render the custom mirror and unity just says screw it and errors on render. Anyone know how I can go about not doing that or is custom modeling a mirror just a no-go?

[dusk sapphire]

for custom meshes for the mirror, you want to make sure the reflective surface is facing the negative z axis in its local transform space

and the mesh itself aligns with the x y plane

[tiny wolf]

Yea I meant Youtube or other video sites 🥺

[vast idol]

Hi. Is it possible to use the "VRC Unity Video player" to play a .mp4?

[stone marsh]

Not anymore. You can however, upload it to a free dropbox account and play it directly from there. Which is a better option anyways as file size isn't effected.

[vast idol]

Alright, Thank you sir

[small pond]

if you put https://t-ne.x0.to/?url= before the youtube link it will work on quest (only videos not streams)

[glad bloom]

btw, to make sure

for world creation in this game, there's a bunch of default assets we can use, right?

[silk needle]

Hey, do someone have upload speed issue right now ?
I have 60mo/s~ & actually it take +45m for a 30mo world that take 10s to upload yesterday

[foggy creek]

Is it possible to build and upload worlds using Mac? I notice you need a PC to run tests and download the app to a computer

[austere hull]

how i add transparency

which shader has it

how to turn black color into transparency

[austere hull]

how i change object position when its being held by player

[cyan eagle]

How would I make a "render distance"?
Like not fog based
But like let's say I have my world as an open area
That's split into chunks
Would there be a way to make it so the user only sees a certain amount of the chunks in any given direction relative to them by radius?

[dusty talon]

Hello y'all. Currently rn, I'm working on a vrchat world and everytime I try to load into the world, my character seems to always do the falling animation constantly as I am unable to move. I have a feeling it has something to do with the collision (I'd assume it's the lone piece of collision below the map in the third image) so I'm going to post an image of the map's collision and see if y'all can help me.

[cobalt prawn]

I'm guessing that your world, including the spawn location, is lower than your respawn height

Causing you to infinitely respawn

[dusty talon]

Do you know how I can fix that?

[green lagoon]

move the world up

[cobalt prawn]

Either move everything in your scene up, or change the respawn height in the scene descriptor

[dusty talon]

Right, I'll get to it rn

[simple bone]

with the vrc billiards table, how do i make it so others can interact with the pool table? Like they cant join my game, or see the ball move when i hit it.

[cobalt prawn]

This is basically what camera clipping planes already do. Doing it by chunks would be more complicated but def possible through a custom script

[dusty talon]

Also, by world do you mean like the VRCWorld or like the map's model?

[cobalt prawn]

Everything in your scene. It might help to enable the grid in scene view, or create a plane and set its position to 0,0,0 so you know where your ground level is supposed to be

[cyan eagle]

Move everything in the scene up a bit

[thick musk]

Hey! Can someone help me with this https://github.com/acertainbluecat/VRCPlayersOnlyMirror

I put the prefab in my scene but it reflects the background, something like a low quality mirror in vrc

[thick musk]

I found out its a problem with the post processing, and idk if i put it on the correct layer

I put it on postprocess

But when i show the mirror or video player i get an effect like this

Nvm, it was the AO in some of the profiles

[austere hull]

how i clone object

[austere hull]

magnitude to every chunk

[cyan eagle]

What?

[green lagoon]

it's a bad idea to use screen space ambient occlusion on vrchat

[thick musk]

Yea

i just download a lot of profiles

i turned it off and now it works, now i just need some baking lol

[austere hull]

check distance from player to every chunk

[cyan eagle]

This?
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Vector3-magnitude.html

[austere hull]

probably

does function without sync that runs when item is being dropped will be also visible when others drop object?

[cyan eagle]

Test in Build & Test or ClientSim :P

I get these errors when I import LilToon latest shaders

[austere hull]

whats this error

[valid crag]

I select "Build & Test" and get this. Any ideas as to why?:

[minor nexus]

i have the same problem myself with it i just build and publish but just keep it private for test build

build and test never been nice to me 😪

[valid crag]

I'm sure it's something simple like the file location.

Going based off Iconoclass's video.

[cobalt prawn]

You can't use Instantiate in udonsharp, gotta use VRCInstantiate instead

[minor nexus]

@valid crag have you used CyanEmu

[cobalt prawn]

I think you need to give your PC permission to let VRchat open VRchat links. I remember being asked to do this at some point when I started worldbuilding but I don't remember what triggered it

[sterile prism]

Hi i basically have a question on IP and commercial use. do we own the content created, how does the creater earn ?

[cobalt prawn]

Also make sure this is correct

[austere hull]

how do i change objects position and velocity after

[valid crag]

No, I haven't.

[austere hull]

vrcinstantiate seems wanky

[valid crag]

I'll look more into my permissions. Not sure if I just have to run Unity as Administrator or not.

[cobalt prawn]

Lol well that's what you gotta use

[cobalt prawn]

I don't think that's it. I didn't have to do it manually, I wanna say I just clicked a vrchat link on discord or a website or something and it popped up like "In order to open this, you gotta give your PC permission to let VRchat open this link blah blah blah, would you like to do that now?"

[valid crag]

I'll try messing around with it a bit more I guess.

[cobalt prawn]

It was a while ago though sorry I don't remember exactly 😅

[valid crag]

The path wasn't correct btw, so good call on that.

It's fine.

Oh, the fix was the path, make a notation of that for the next person who runs into that issue. Lol @cobalt prawn

[cobalt prawn]

Right on 😄

[valid crag]

You get five stars, sir. ✨✨✨✨✨ thank you.

[bold ibex]

What’s the update?

[austere hull]

okay i managed to change position but no idea about velocity

[cobalt prawn]

Need a non kinematic rigidbody and a reference to that rigidbody component, then just velocity = whatever

[austere hull]

had to use getcomponent thing

[rocky wind]

Can anyone rev one down a good Quest comparable media player?

If someone has one to suggest please @ me so I see the notification

[cobalt prawn]

They pretty much all work on quest as far as I know, what does not work on quest is specifically youtube links and livestreams of any kind. I've read that if you simply put this before a youtube video URL it can work but I haven't tried it myself: https://t-ne.x0.to/?url=

[minor nexus]

added a silly speaker wall to my world but dont get too close XD https://gyazo.com/9d8cf9778e25ef21e1cfe02713ba1d95

[cobalt prawn]

Oooh that's cool man nice touch

[minor nexus]

will be posting it up on community labs soon it just the entrance part to the main world i will be making but wanna show off what's to come

[gaunt egret]

should put a flash warning right where people spawn in

[minor nexus]

there is buttons to turn it on and off and its off by default

[gaunt egret]

ah epic

[minor nexus]

yee did the same thing with reverb audio fx and stuff like that if people don't want it

[austere hull]

cant make it working

    public override void OnDrop() {
        GameObject use = GameObject.Find("bolt");
        GameObject bolt = VRCInstantiate(use);
        bolt.transform.position = new Vector3(0, 3, 0);
        bolt.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().velocity = use.transform.position * 100;
        transform.position = new Vector3(0, 1, 0);
//        Destroy(bolt);
    }```

[cobalt prawn]

Setting the velocity to a position doesn't make sense, it should be a direction. I'm guessing you'd want to use use.transform.forward instead. And just to make sure is the rigidbody on the bolt object non-kinematic?

[austere hull]

yes

forward might be wanky too if player rotates object in hand

actually it dont work at all

always velocity in same direction

[cobalt prawn]

Do you have any errors? Are you sure if the "use" object is even being found?

[austere hull]

no i mean it does work

just forward is a bad use

because it always spawns object in same rotation

[cobalt prawn]

An object's velocity does not affect it's rotation

The velocity is the direction and speed it moves in. It can be facing any direction

[austere hull]

and object is directionless so forward still not helpful

it must use old object position in some way

[cobalt prawn]

In that case I don't understand what you're trying to do. Based on the words here I'm assuming it's like a bolt from a crossbow or something?

[austere hull]

similar but in all directions

i have pickupable at middle

and can be pulled in all directions

and should spawn new projectile with proper velocity after releasing

[cobalt prawn]

Ahhh I see. That makes sense then yeah. It's a weird way to do it but I see what you're getting at. For one thing, I think what you want is the opposite position that the pickup is being pulled in (because if it's like a bow/slingshot you pull backwards). Does the pickup have a parent, and is it positioned at 0,0,0 relative to its parent? If so you can try using -use.transform.localPosition instead

[austere hull]

i mean no difference if - or not it will just go towards me instead

i just want it to recognize directions im pulling

and localposition dont seem help either

object is at 0 coordinate so that might be helpful for script

how would i check for direction between 2 objects?

that would be proper way of assigning where it should go

[cobalt prawn]

(object2.position - object1.position).normalized will give you the direction from 1 to 2

[austere hull]

bolt.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().velocity = (bolt.transform.position - use.transform.position).normalized * 10;

dont seem to assign any velocity

a nevermind i assigned wrong object

yes it work

can i make it disappear after few seconds

udon dont seem supporting countdown

[cobalt prawn]

What did you try for countdown? Can you just do something like Destroy(bolt, 10); to destroy in 10 seconds?

[austere hull]

a i was using waitforseconds

didnt knew destroy has timer too

[cobalt prawn]

Ah, yeah destroy has one built in, pretty nifty

Waitforseconds only works in coroutines

[twilit crescent]

hello

is anyone here super familiar with bakery?

[austere hull]

is there simple way for running function for others

[austere hull]

guessing not

[wheat haven]

is there a way to hide the displays that the avatar pedestal creates?

[rain shadow]

#world-development message

Replace the pedestal Udon behavior with that one

[wheat haven]

will do

[white moon]

Yes, you can assign an object to a specific user as the owner and then call a networked event on that object at the owner of the object

[austere hull]

does pickupable position can be edited

or would i have to make second invisible pickupable that affects firsts position

[pearl plume]

Anyone know how I could make an NPC just roaming around in a world?

[mental pecan]

how do VRC_Avatar_Descriptor???

vrc scene descriptor i mean im tryn to make a world

[pearl plume]

Add it to an object in your world, and set a spawn point

[gaunt egret]

add vrcworld prefab

[pearl plume]

Doesn’t really matter what object as long as there’s only one of them and it’s static

[mental pecan]

same for worlds?

[pearl plume]

Yes, that is for your world

[mental pecan]

static?

[pearl plume]

Mhm

[mental pecan]

elaborate

on what abd how

[gaunt egret]

find the vrcworld prefab, you don't have to do anything to that besides putting it where you want your spawn to be

[pearl plume]

He still needs the scene descriptor

[gaunt egret]

the vrcworld is the scene descriptor

it has everything set up

literal drag and drop

assets --> vrchat examples --> prefabs

[pearl plume]

I usually just put it on an object and add a new empty to use as spawn

[pearl plume]

^

[mental pecan]

what do i do with the file once ive foundf

i gt it

how long until i can upload and try my world

[pearl plume]

If u do Riley’s way, just drag and drop.

[pearl plume]

Whenever your scene descriptor and spawn are set

[mental pecan]

bettt

thanks guys

those tips were fast glad you guys are active in here atm

[pearl plume]

Indeed

[mental pecan]

sooooooo

im fallin through the floor

...

[pearl plume]

You didn’t put any colliders in or ur spawn is set in the floor

[mental pecan]

can you screeenshot how

[pearl plume]

No I’m on my phone

[mental pecan]

gt ya

[pearl plume]

Just click on what game objects you want the colliders on and add the mesh collider

Click —> Add component —> Mesh Collider

Or box collider depending on what object it is

[austere hull]

how i enable disabled object

i can only disable enabled

[austere hull]

or better idea

how to toggle this

[glad bloom]

@stone marsh contacting support did absolutely nothing lol, so I p much waited for nothing. They said they can't manually change it, which I know is bullshit.

guess ill just play during work hours

[timber birch]

click on that check box

[austere hull]

but in script

[timber birch]

why would you want to disable a script

[austere hull]

i want enable it

[timber birch]

or toggle it

leave it enabled

[austere hull]

no

its on object outside map

when in use i clone it

then i want enable it

[timber birch]

GameObject.setActive?

https://docs.unity3d.com/2018.4/Documentation/ScriptReference/GameObject.SetActive.html

or UdonBehavior.setEnabled maybe?

[austere hull]

dont seem to work

[glad bloom]

.setEnabled = true, no?

[austere hull]

        bolt.GetComponent<UdonBehaviour>().setEnabled = true;```

[low osprey]

it pops up this text "can't create texture" every time when I bake light because I accidentally export the model from Blender into unity model file while it baking anyone know how to fix it?

[limpid island]

Does anyone know how to get a vrcStation to play an animation on the avatar in it? I've tried using regular animation controllers, I've tried override animation controllers overwriting Idle, Sitting, Standing Still and not been able to have any luck. Is there a write up for this anywhere that's detailed a prefab or am I just missing something simple?

[bold ibex]

Anybody here know of any good Water shaders

that don't break after lights are baked

i used Sean's Water shaders.. but upon baking lights and reflections it just breaks

and doesn't render until i switch to deferred

[limpid island]

Try Mochi's?

[bold ibex]

i will

[bold ibex]

Is it supposed to be invisible

dipped on me

ok

gg

[gaunt egret]

you waited 5 minutes lol. nobody is obligated to help you so don't get upset but try red_sims water https://www.patreon.com/posts/32252234

[bold ibex]

life savior

[austere hull]

        bolt.GetComponent<UdonBehaviour>().enabled = true;```

that is almost correct now but it says getcomponent cant be used

[limpid island]

my bad I'm also working on my own stuff

[bold ibex]

yeah i was abit frustrated sorry

[austere hull]

anyoneee

[kind portal]

what does this mean?

[green lagoon]

you put too many description tags on your world

[kind portal]

what do i have to do

[green lagoon]

remove some of the tags you put on the world when you uploaded it

[kind portal]

i don't know how to add ore delete them

[green lagoon]

then how did you get those tags in the first place

[kind portal]

i don´t knew

[green lagoon]

basically clear out the text on the bottom dialog box

[kind portal]

oh i am stupid as fick

[kind portal]

thank you

[sour patrol]

is there a way to add physics bones to world objects

[austere hull]

if theres no phys bones script by default then no

[fringe plinth]

Hello! Im new to building worlds (this is my first one), and I am having trouble publishing it. Whenever I try to "Build & Publish for Windows", I get this error. I keep trying to google the issue but the results Im finding havent helped so far

if this is the wrong chat pls lmk

[glad tiger]

Which VRC Mirror reflect layers only show your avatar? aka transparent mirror?

[near escarp]

Detach the blueprint ID in the world descriptor component

[fringe plinth]

Ok, so the embarrassing part is, I dont know where to find the blueprint ID. Where would that be located? When I clock on the scene I dont get much info.
