@languid lark When uploading sound and animation for a gunshot for an avatar, does it matter if I hide the gun and/or audio/muzzle flash on the duplicate?
clear yew
thats not the same one :/ @languid lark
plush meadow
So on the duplicate, I only hide the sound and muzzle flash. Not the gun? @languid lark
Say I created a separate game object and put those two in there.
clear yew
does anyone know where those loli characters get the dubstep guns?
plush meadow
Do I have to individually uncheck the audio and muzzle flash?
And not uncheck the duplicate gun?
languid lark
if you want your gun stay just turn off the sound and muzzle
plush meadow
But what if I want the gun to fire and make noise and muzzle flash when triggering a gesture?
languid lark
here video about it
@plush meadow if there on same animation setup custom override
it will do that effect
plush meadow
Thing is though, it doesn't.
I must have screwed something up somewhere.
I got it working earlier.
gusty crow
Is there any good place for emote animations besides Mixamo?
plush meadow
Okay so I managed to get the gun working.
Sound and all.
But when I switch worlds, I can only see muzzle flash and cannot hear the shot.
Only the shooter could.
Is that a server issue or?

Hi, my friend has an issue with her ainimation where she is shooting fire out of her hands like a flame thrower, I can see it perfectly but she cant.
fervent elm
Yea its right in front of her hands and she cannot see it
cyan sparrow
If it is very close to her camera the particles will be culled
But at her hands, I think that should be far enough away.
But it might depend on the shader or something

I cant figure out this falling through the floor with custom over rides. Im making a duplicate model an everything. All I want is to move my entire game object in a straight line, I couldnt use speed or velocity over time because of the effects I made didnt look right, So I need the entite object to move as a whole

it happens to me too, even a simple blink animation made my avatar sink thru the floor

So I've had to do the shape keys on my model myself, since it didn't come with any, except I'm having trouble setting the Basis key to have it's mouth closed. I'll go make another shape key for the other sounds but as soon as I switch back to the Basis the new mouth shape will stick on it. Does anybody have any advice on how to do shape keys on an mmd that didn't have any?

I second @uneven moon .. have similar problem importing vmd file.. :/

been trying, and i can get it working fine with just importing model then import the animation. but as soon as i click that "fix model" it dose something, and the animation stops working. >:<

How to have an animation triggered by a combination of two different hand emotes?

@steep citrus @clear yew i'm really late, but if you havent figured it out yet, bake the animations into pose

looks like it is kneeing on the floor

I completed adding a weapon to my avatar, and ive been having an issue where whenever i do the hand gesture, it goes into the gesture i have in the animation, but in slow motion, without the weapon. And then it goes back to normal
clear yew
i think that's the problem ๐ฆ
peak cosmos
like fetal position?
clear yew
kind of
peak cosmos
im still learning so idk exactly why it does that sometimes
clear yew
how do i bake an animation into a pose, i literally installed unity 3 days ago i don't know the terms
peak cosmos
did the animations come with the model or did you make them
clear yew
my model has shape keys, like blinking and anime facial expressions
i made the animation by recording it
i just wanted to add blinking eyes
peak cosmos
did you watch that youtube video about making blinking animations that tells you to duplicate your character before recording the blinking and stuff?
clear yew
yes
peak cosmos
you have to make sure you dont record the character falling into the floor
clear yew
that's what i do, i duplicate it, record the animation changing shape keys value, save it and add it to the original
it falls in the floor as soon i press record ๐ฆ
oh wait
i push record, charcter fall, i cancel record he stays down, start a new record session?
is that what you mean?
peak cosmos
ive had it work and not work sometimes when i did the exact same thing
clear yew
i tried a second time, and i did the same exact steps and it worked
but now on other models i cannot do it :/
peak cosmos
yea its weird
clear yew
i even tried copying the .anim file to other characters but it was a fail
peak cosmos
prob cuz the shape keys are named differently
clear yew
๐ฎ
idk, i used cat plugin to translate them usually they always are blink blink 2 and so on
i'll try the record, cancel record again thing
i hope it will work
peak cosmos
you know how it automatically adds keyframes
try deleting the ones it automatically makes
clear yew
it did weird things like close eyes fast but reopen them super slow
i hate unity
it should be a channel here
peak cosmos
you need open, close, open all in a row
clear yew
the 'we hate unity' channel where peoples go there to swear
peak cosmos
lol
clear yew
that's what i did but then i wanted to add a double blink and it was a pain
so i was like screw it and just add a 5 second loop with 1 blink XD
peak cosmos
lol
clear yew
i can't wait to get my rift and yell at the computer when trying to make cooler animations
peak cosmos
i just do open, close, halfway open, close, open

that's a nice idea
i am struggling with animations, i hope tupper make a video cause i love his tutorials

I completed adding a weapon to my avatar, and ive been having an issue where whenever i do the hand gesture, it goes into the gesture i have in the animation, but in slow motion, without the weapon. And then it goes back to normal
clear yew
i kinda had the same issue with slow blinking
you need the frames closer to eachother in the timeline, as for no weapon idk
maybe you forgot a trigger or something to make it visible
i am too noob for this
peak cosmos
same
clear yew
is your character sinking in the floor also?
hidden fulcrum
nah, just the hand screws up
clear yew
that's a win for me
mine always goes thru the floor >_>
your better than me i can't help sorry
hidden fulcrum
ive been searching for a solution for a couple days now
peak cosmos
moz make sure ur not recording like your whole body's postion or something
clear yew
are you following a video?
peak cosmos
just the shape keys
hidden fulcrum
yeah, followed it exactly, tried a couple different videos too
clear yew
how can i make sure i am not recording whole body?
clear yew
i found a cool video one day, wait let me search thru my history

but when u select stuff on the left
only select the shape keys and not the body or whatever
sorry really bad explanation

hey, anyone know how to take the peace sign and add like some stuff to it? such as a face expression. i just want to smile whenever i do the peacesign for example. Cant find any good tutorial for this example.
i only find how to do an animation with facial expression. But not one thats like interveined with an already existing one
hidden fulcrum
You would make an animation for the face expressions you want to do, with the peace sign, and then in your CustomOverride set it too the Peace Sign
weary cargo
anywhere i can see what the settings for the normal peace sign is ? :p
hidden fulcrum
@weary cargo if you already know how to add animations it should be easy, just create one an animation with the facial expression you want but with the peace sign, then override to the concurrent one
weary cargo
yeh i know
hidden fulcrum
settings for the normal one? what do you mean?
weary cargo
but if i make one peace sign that looks off from the other side u know
they should be symmetric

Before you do anything.
Be sure that you set up the handgun correctly somewhat on the main model.
Then when you think you are satisfied, you duplicate it.

Hey guys anyone in here using mixamo animations? I have a question
normal skiff
I'm going to bet that it won't work but it will take 5 minutes to find out
plush meadow
normal skiff
what will work is manually putting back all the finger positions
carmine island
I can make the anims work but looks like the head goes on its own
plush meadow
floral island
Aw man
plush meadow
Guess it depends.
I mean in the end, my animations work.
Without having to drag it into controller.
floral island
I was hoping to save some time by not having to recreate it but oh well
normal skiff
I tried to cheat my way out using mixamo but the animation file mixamo creates is missing the Armature/ level of the hierarchy so it thinks my model doesn't have the bones
mortal patrol
So question; when I put my weapon on my character , it spazzes out the hands when I hold it. Any way to fix the flickering fingers
carmine island
@normal skiff You have to do the humanoid rig into the animation just like you do for your character
normal skiff
hmm?
carmine island
Look at this short video, it works
normal skiff
whole animations work fine
what doesn't work is copying bits of the mixamo-exported one into mine
is the audio broken on this?
carmine island
It doesn't have audio ^^
exotic ember
Can anyone help me identify why my audio keeps fucking up? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jWRo0brlBE
carmine island
That video solved almost all my problems but 1. The head of the avatar doing the animations looks weird af
Like is not fully attached to the body
normal skiff
one of my avatars did that and I still don't know why
carmine island
It's really creepy
normal skiff
yeah, no... setting the animation controller makes no difference
the animations on the override play but the original one doesn't
mortal patrol
@carmine island any solutions for flickering fingers while holding weapons? My fingers love to flicker and sometimes shake the weapon too
normal skiff
it's counterintuitive considering that it's supposed to be an "override" but I think I already said that a while back
copying and pasting from the sample male standing animation might be OK. it sucks that only the male one is there, but at least the hands would be the same as female .. probably
gloomy stag
could anyone help me out on how to make this kind of trail with this texture? I got it to emit cubes of different colors based on it but I want it to make a constant trail using those colors
so far I got it to do this but I want the colors to differ horizontaly
normal skiff
what happens when you rotate the texture
deep spruce
nice Bit.trip runner trails
gloomy stag
exactly bud
exotic ember
have you tried upping the amount of particles and the spawn rate
that or you could use a rectangle mesh instead of a cube to make them longer if you dont want to go crazy with particle amounts
normal skiff
lol my prop position fixed itself the next time I made the same animation
gloomy stag
The issue is not the shape itself but the pattern they describe, they should form that kind of flag intead of going different colors towards the end of trail
and rotating the texture didn't work cause it just does the same, except you need to indicate tiles in x and not y
exotic ember
dirty fix would be have them spawn from the top down
and then just have them shade to the differenct colors over time
normal skiff
dirtiest fix would be to have 5 separate trails in fixed colour
exotic ember
that would be easiest fix actually
gloomy stag
would 5 trails lag the game too much?
normal skiff
probably not, it's the number of particles currently visible which would hurt lag if at all
and even that, people were doing experiments with fixed particle systems and found that it took an extremely large amount to actually drop framerate
gloomy stag
okay I will give that option a try, thanks for the help guys. ^^
commander video is like my favourite character ever, being him in vrchat is like a dream come true
kindred jay
i finaly managed to add an custom emote but some reason i am unable to change to idle animation for some reason.
exotic ember
eagle, copy all the keyframes in the idle animation and just paste it in an anim file you can edit
kindred jay
right thx see if i can find it
spare bramble
ok so i cant be far from be ble to do it correctly i tried my avatar in game the finger point anim worked along with the audio source only issue is that for some reason my character is bugging out when i take out the gun goes from standing to crouching
normal skiff
I will say one thing about hand animation though
Muscle Animation Editor was worth the money
mortal patrol
@normal skiff is that required to make it so my hands don't spaz out when I hold my weapon?
kindred jay
I prehaps should made a headsup i followed the tutorial w/ Mixamo
normal skiff
no, it just makes moving fingers a lot faster
unity's rotation things don't show the rotation in the natural direction fingers would actually move so it's a lot of work
mortal patrol
@normal skiff ok, so any idea how I could fix my flickering issue?
spare bramble
ok so i tried it in game the gun appears when i use the rock n roll hand gesture and the audio source worked however my character keeps bugging and going from standing to this pose dont know why any ideas
normal skiff
this is why you clone the character and do the animations on the clone
spare bramble
that is the clone
normal skiff
that's fine then isn't it?
spare bramble
well yeah but for some reason mid animation for the gun i go from standing as normal to that jump crouch thing instead of standing shooting
normal skiff
that seems odd... unless the animation itself has that in it
spare bramble
as if the positions or main model and clone are conflicting
normal skiff
well, the clone doesn't exist in-game...
and unless the positions of things somehow got into the animation I don't know how it could do that
heh I just had the finger spazzing out thing but it was my own fault
positions of the fingers in frame 0 and frame 1 didn't match
that's cool though, I was never sure whether they actually used that as an animation .. maybe there is a use for the feature
sharp torrent
Would it be possible to make gesture activate a hidden object, that contains a complicated animation? So in a way to bypass the 2 frame restriction gestures have? Don't have VR atm so can't test it.
sharp torrent
Awesome, that opens some doors for me. Thanks
spare bramble
@normal skiff found out what was causing my issue for some reason by default in the animation tab for my pistol it added a position key frame deleted that and its all good to go ^^
plush meadow
Make sure the position coordinates of your animation and main model are the same. @spare bramble
Otherwise you may still experience the crouch.
spare bramble
did that was the first things i checked i swear between @plush meadow and a another guy in the loli army chat i have learned more about this than any of the tutorials i watched they are either missing key points or not very detailed xD cheers for the help again
clear yew
does anyone have a good list of tutorials?
clear yew
like the particle effects i see
clear yew
thanks man
plush meadow
clear yew
that one didnt really help
plush meadow
I mean it depends on what you want.
If you want muzzle flash/gunshot, then follow the two above.
clear yew
yeaht thing is i have a particle effect i wanna use for my dark link model but i cant find out how to use it and import it
upbeat field
@white herald basically yeah.
upper cloak
Anyone know the website with several animations? Someone told me b4 but I forgot to note down the page.
plush meadow
Mixamo?
clear yew
Yeah probably Mixamo
upper cloak
oh yea, cheers
thorny fox
how do I do an emote? everytime i make an animation involving particle effects, and use said emote, the particles effects never happen
likewise if i make the particle effects and put it on my body without adding and animations/assigning to emote it works
clear yew
well where else?
clear yew
nah i think they mean using mixaio for animations not for rigs
cos they have alot of dance stuff
tacit latch
well, that requires the mixamo rig
clear yew
not really
tacit latch
?
clear yew
i rigged my used my link model i made from cats
and dark link
i got all the shit i needed
i think some people have issue with the auto rigging tho
Is there a way to stop head tracking, or a way to work around it? I have some animations that go 360, and the head tracking just makes it creepy.
unique wind
errrm, so somebody commented about this earlier and there was no answer, but I was wandering if anybody knew why my model just stays in the same place when its supposed to move while dancing. I got the .anims from converting .vmds and they seem to work in Unity
prisma hornet
Does anyone know if there is anyway that I can have an animation run with keybinds or mouse buttons?
swift wyvern
Do animations have a movement limit ? My emotes that should move just stay in place when i use them in vrchat
unique wind
@swift wyvern the body parts move right? but the model itself goes nowhere?
swift wyvern
Yes the body, arms,legs etc do the movement but the avatar stays in the same place
unique wind
I mean there are videos showing people doing emotes with full dances so i dont think its a movement limit
kindred jay
lol gosh i am so useless to find things, change the idle, walking, runing anmation seams tough then the other emotes.
gloomy stag
Guys I got the trail to work just great, my question now:
Is there any way to modify the walking or running animations? I just wanna tilt the spine more backwards.
On tutorials I've seen animation overrides for emotes but they don't work with a base animation, is it possible to edit the walking or running ones?
prime holly
clear yew
Does anybody know why half the people in servers show me as "Queued?"
kindred jay
-desktop users , this wont work for you- hello darkness my old friend
clear yew
I been trying to do emotes from animations off the mixamo stuff but I can't download the animations..
prime holly
๐
gloomy stag
Animation overrides I've seen are applied to hand emotes, but is it possible with walk/run cycles?
prime holly
yea
clear yew
it's all contained in fbx models
gloomy stag
how do you load the walk/run animation so you can edit it?
kindred jay
i would like to know that too, not been able to change the idle, walk, run animation either.
prime holly
vrdesk > examples > animation > man
clear yew
theres ways but I need to get the aniations first
gloomy stag
Anyway I am heck happy cause I got the particles to work right, however I made them tiny so people dont hate me
what you mean @prime holly is how to get to the window where you replace the animations, but idk how to load the default animation in question so it can be edited, instead of having to do it from scratch
prime holly
clear yew
My avatar isnt showing up for some people
kindred jay
yeah happens to lots of peeps
gloomy stag
Slub I checked that tutorial already and it doesn't modify the running/walking animation
it just overrides emote animations
sharp torrent
What is the victory gesture by default?
gloomy stag
I think it is a V with the fingers
sharp torrent
Alright, thanks. Is there a list of them all? Would like to know what I can override and what I want to keep.
clear yew
Anyone know of a nice asset/effect/shader for fire / smoke kinda things?
woeful harbor

Hello, how can people add like 2 additional characters to their animations?

prime gale
Alright I'm at a loss

HELP! im trying to rig a hand gesture up to make noise and i've done everything in cats tut, when i go in game i cant get the specified gesture to show up? why?
sacred schooner
My bad, I should be posting here: Anyone know why my props aren't moving when I try and make an animation with them? Like, they stay at their previous location when I delete the second keyframe.
rotund hedge
So im trying to get a basic emote override, and i have all the steps down from a video. But when i try to create an animation the keys dont showcase the animation its just in whatever save spot i left it in
is it suppose to play? or nah
sacred schooner
If you move from one keyframe to the next, it should display what you did between those two frames.
rotund hedge
okay it is not doing that
whatever keyframe i made last is displaying for all of them
sacred schooner
Are any of the numbers changing on the left of the animation window?
rotund hedge
sometimes when i click away it goes back to the starter frame but when i click from key to key its the same.
uh next to the skip?
starts at 0, next key is at 5
sacred schooner
When you click the different frames, does it show the properties being changed on the left.
Such as position, movement, active
sacred schooner
Then whatever you did did not save.
rotund hedge
mkay how do i make it save
sacred schooner
You could check if you might have it under a different animation, click on atht top left dropdown
Where there's a name of your animation
It autosaves, so I'm honestly not sure what you did.
But Ctrl+S should save it as well
rotund hedge
nothing in the menu
those 2 keys dont change anything
pressing play does nothing
kindred jay
animations has to be less then 30 frame in order to work am i right?
sacred schooner
Yeah, what I'm saying is that you'll have to do it again if anything.
rotund hedge
i mean its only rising up
so it should be easy
but the position doesnt save
okay now its changining positions between keys (idk what i did differently) but the positions arent changing numbers on the left
ive seen animations that last for like a full minute so i dont know about the 30 frames thing
keen plank
Hey so I have a holstered weapon and whenever I look in the mirror the reflection shows the wrist is stretching to my waist trying to put his hand on it how do I fix this?
I'll grab a picture in a second

really not thinking this will work, since my animation is forcing another model to appear.
but lets see
kindred jay
aighty ty for the info dizz, working with few things see if i can solve it

as i expected the animation didnt work, it literally made me fly to the side for no reason lol

ok question for anywho who knows. if an animation is in an fbx can I pull that animation out of the list to a custom override if its a model of the same char?
kindred jay
@lapis frost hey that sounds like an familar issue i got too. seams the animation just works for a mere seconda nd then it goes like freeze mode.
lapis frost
@kindred jay yup, any luck with figuring it out?

nothing so far. been trying with diferent things such as lower the frames but seams nothing so far has been solved. i keep working on it. prehaps eventualy i will solve it - or hopefully some one knows how too do that.

can someone please help me with this 2d eye blinking?
stray gulch
@shut shore first thing you need to know if the animation is going to be more or less than 10 sec
shut shore
the first one i have in mind is roughly 4~ seconds
stray gulch
@shut shore the your going to make a emote with custom overide look at some tutorials on youtube on custom overaide for vrchat. emotions and emotes
emotes can NEVER be more than 10 sec otherwise you have to bake the animation into the character and thats the only thing it will do

and the character has the dance emote as their idle or something?

okay i'm going to boil it down to a yes or no question

yes

do i have to make different shapekeys to get a different frame to display a different material
or do i have to keep all the materials on the same shapekey

@ivory lagoon no i think

why does everyone ignore me?

Hey so when you want to create an animation for one of the emotes, do you have to stand your character up in the animation from that bent pose?

i wanna add these for the emote and idle/walk anim, is there any way?
clear yew
custom override controllers. You can drag and drop the animations into the override slots assuming the bones are working correctly.
amber pollen
does unity support .anm files tho?
and how do i put the custom override controllers?

not sure about the anm files, but you can access the override controller here:

does anyone know how to get multiple particle effects to move at once on a delay? making the animation clip longer than the first 2 frames seems to cause issues for me. however I need roughly 7 seconds to work with because I need a 6 second delay before the effects need to move. the extra 1 second is for the effect itself to move
I can only think of one way an Im not a fan of it, Ill need my first effect that takes 6 seconds to be a separate gesture an ill have to use another just to make the effect launch.

how do you make the drawing animation stay visable even when your not doing the (fingerpoint) or something. Then how do you delete it.

Do I have to change the animator controller if I'm uploading a custom idle animation?
Or leave it as none?

i dont think the animator controller really matters
the custom standing/sitting anims is what does it
restive elm
if i want a custom sit, how do i know what height to put it at? trial and error?
sand apex
@mild blaze have you heard of snail marker?
wind otter
So i tried using the model i made in VRChat , but it doesn't play the animation, there were no errors, everything was rigged fine, the only thing that was wrong was thigh and pelvis angle (that might be the cause of it ) was that the cause of no animations?
fathom plaza
@vocal plover Do you happen to know if I have to loop it?
mild blaze
yeah i have i made the animation and everything but when i get in game i am able to draw, i want the drawing to stay without me having to hold down fingerpoint and then i'd like to use rock n roll to delete that drawing
@sand apex
vocal plover
@fathom plaza this is what i have for a custom looping blink animation
fathom plaza
But for blinking you don't need the custom override, so I don't know if that changes things
vocal plover
id say to try out both
sand apex
@mild blaze if you want to use rock n roll to delete the drawing you'll need to make it so the box for game object trail is unchecked
vocal plover
im not 100%sure either
sand apex
Actually bagel don't you already get an anim file that has "EraseAll"
vocal plover
actually this is the default idle animation
fathom plaza
I duplicated that and used that as my base. Just waiting for the server issues to ease up before I can test things
wind otter
Anyone know what i have to do with the bones to fix this? I probably have to rotate the bone or move it, but not sure what to where, ill post a screenshot of my rig , so if anyone knows what to do to what, pls tell me.
mild blaze
@sand apex nope i can't find it
sand apex
Did you ever click a "Do Everything" button or something like that
wind otter
Here is the rig for the problem i posted above. Sorry if this is a dumb question.
mild blaze
when?
fathom plaza
It works!
vocal plover
nice
sand apex
when you put the prefab for the snail marker
you click on TrailSource, scroll down and there's a "Do Everything" button
vocal plover
@wind otter do you have CATS blender plugin?
mild blaze
ohhh
wind otter
No
mild blaze
wait why what does it do
vocal plover
what did you do/use to get the model into unity?
sand apex
Bagel it creates a drawing/erase all animator for you that you simply put in the custom override
mild blaze
oooh my
wind otter
I exported fbs with bones in blender and then imported to unity
fathom plaza
Now to figure out how the sitting animation works
sand apex
You have to make sure you put the marker prefab on your wrist and then you can position the marker where ever you want and even make it invisible so it looks like you're drawing from your finger
vocal plover
https://github.com/michaeldegroot/cats-blender-plugin
Scroll down to installation, download then follow the installation instructions
sand apex
The drawing and eraseall is self-explanatory, put the drawing on a gesture so you can hold down the gesture to draw and then when you're done you can use the eraseall gesture to get rid of it, it also stays after you draw until you eraseall
main bone
I have a weird issue where the arm does not move when I hold an object. Anyone here know how to fix that?
sand apex
So do they move when you do other things like doing emotes?
main bone
yes
sand apex
beats me then
clear yew
My generic rig ends up stuck in a loop whenever I emote, is there a fix for that?
wind otter
@vocal plover kk i installed it
vocal plover
open your model back up in blender
delete these
delete everything EXCEPT this and its children
then click this button and re-export the model into unity
theres more you can do but thats the simple version
wind otter
I can't seem to find that the things you said to delete?
vocal plover
just ignore that then
thats more for MMD models but i wanted to make sure they weren't there
wind otter
Ok, looks like i gotta rename bones
vocal plover
try this first
echo notch
Is there anyway to get colliders from other people's avatars?
wind otter
ok
sand apex
I don't know if that's right but when you click on "Do Everything" the script was supposed to remove itself anyways

As in let other people with vr rub my head and have the ears react to it
sand apex
Do you have the old version of snail marker or something
mild blaze
i'm pretty sure i downloaded the most recent
wind otter
ok it translated the bones
vocal plover
nice
wind otter
still says this doe
sand apex
Well I suppose it should still work, you don't need it anyways since all the script does is make you your animations and etc
mild blaze
so how do i remove it
mild blaze
@sand apex
sand apex
it removes it for you, doesn't it?
mild blaze
nvm i got it lol
sand apex
What's normally supposed to happen is after you click on do everything it just removes itself anyways
vocal plover
try exporting the FBX file back into unity anyway
wind otter
ok
mild blaze
it didn't do that but i just deleted component
wind otter
do i export with the CATS export or normal export
vocal plover
i usually just do normal export
wind otter
Kk, i select both bones and object right
mild blaze
ty very much works now ๐
sand apex
no problem
vocal plover
i dont think it matters what you have selected, it will export everything
sand apex
I can't actually do gesture animations to make things like snail marker useful so the best I can do is help other people do theres since I don't have VR
wind otter
ok
clear yew
Alright, so, I finally got the spider animation to work with VRChat using the SimpleAvatarController, but the problem I have now is the idle animation, it looks like it's working in Unity but in VRChat there's no animation, everything else works fine besides that, I'm stumped
wind otter
Okay i imported it to unity did all of the steps. Only 1 error and thats the pelvis angel
wind otter
Ok, ill export it to vrchat.
If this doesn't work ill rename all bones manually i guess
vocal plover
ive had models with that error and nothing semmed really broken
anyway im going to bed. Best of luck with your Ed avatar
or whatever it is
wind otter
Thanks. Idk who Ed is but ok.

Does anyone ghave an idea as to how the beerus model in Lyxirs avatar world launches the ball after a delay? I cant make the animation clip longer than 2 frames or it causes problems. That beerus model launches an orb after it grows in his hand, I need to know how to do exactly that

I have a Mega Man X MMD model and it has a shape key to form his Buster on his right arm but the hand just kinda juts out still. Wanna see if I can hide that inside the Buster while it's out. I'm trying to map it to the trackpad so I can just change the lil devil horns finger emote to make it so his hand vanishes and the Buster forms.
This is what it SHOULD look like. Got this by rotating his hand inside and demolishing a few of his fingers to fenangle them inside. Tested it in game though and it just doesn't work. I just get a mangled hand. Is there a way to properly shove his hand inside there and/or possibly shrink it inside?
