rapid cypress
sand apex
Oh well you need to bake them all into pose and set them to original
So your body will move exactly how it does in unity
lost wren
I'm sure that the problem is the animator
sand apex
@rapid cypress huh?
rapid cypress
Dude... I've been looking for a way to do that for a while
Tysm
Is there a YouTube tutorial on it?
clear yew
@sand apex how do i do that?
sand apex
You click on the anim file you used and set it
rapid cypress
I'm curious... So curious... Can you do this with arms regardless of using VR to override say... A swing of a weapon?
sand apex
sand apex
@rapid cypress maybe mixamo would have an animation for you?
abstract gull
Anyone know if you can use gesture override to change a material in Unity?
rapid cypress
I'm not familiar with Maximo, what is it?
sand apex
Its a website with animations like dancing that you could upload your model to and have it done for you
it'll have to be a clean version of the model or the one you've set to humanoid
rapid cypress
I'm not too concerned about hand animating things as my entire model is built from scratch
But I'm more wondering about the potential to override the vice controller position temporarily so I don't have to wildly swing my attached around if I want to swing a sword
Vive*
Arm*
sand apex
just make an anim with animators of you swining the sword with the bones and set it to a hand
rapid cypress
Say, an override for thumbsup could just play an animation for right arm to swing
clear yew
@sand apex nun of those settings are showing up for me
sand apex
It's going to require a lot of bone movement though as opposed to just swinging your vive
rapid cypress
I'm prepared for that haha
There are multiple other reasons why I'd want to do it that way
Layering in shape keys for additional accuracy and... Even more ambitious, animation smears
Are you familiar with smears?
sand apex
@clear yew that is something I don't know how to fix sadly
and no I don't know about smears
naive heart
Guys can anybody help me? I made a Audio source with a Animation and in Unity the sound plays but not in VRC, why?
rapid cypress
It's an in-between frame for animation where an object is stretching and exaggerating to make it easier on the eyes to process
Usually with extremely fast moving objects
Easy to do in 2d, but challenging in 3D
glass anchor
having issues with the default override animations all being the same, I can't copy their frames to a fresh anim
they're all just a slight head tilt to the left
sand apex
@naive heart Is it part of an animation override?
glass anchor
anyone else had this?
sand apex
Not sure then, you might need to recheck your animations
naive heart
I mean the sound IS playing in Unity and everything works perfectly fine
and the Animation works in VRC as well, but not the sound
sand apex
Try adding the sound to a different part of the model?
naive heart
oh my god I'm so fucking dumb haha
nevermind
I placed the audio source on the temporary character
sand apex
Good thing that made you check because I was about to tell you if your game audio was muted LOL
glass anchor
lemme ask again with a visual aid, anyone know why all my default anims look like this? https://gfycat.com/BasicComposedBoa
robust hound
anyone know how I could do to make my character leg follow an animation instead of walking upon triggering an animation (like handgun or smth)
sand apex
@glass anchor did you touch the customoverrideempty?
sand apex
By replacing it with a fresh one did you leave it as none?
The default ones are none by default
glass anchor
actually I copied the file in windows directly to my assets folder
and selected that
rapid cypress
@sand apex before I get too distracted, thank you so, so much for sharing the whole anim baking
glass anchor
I didn't override the default one in this project's sdk folder
sand apex
no problem
rapid cypress
Total life saver
sand apex
Is your model humanoid
glass anchor
yes
earnest trail
neat gate
anyone good with like making fingers hold a gun? because i suck at doing that
sand apex
I think they're all going to look like that by default
because they all have the same anims in the vrcsdk folder if that's where they're from
glass anchor
so it doesn't actually come with an "idle" animation?
or any of the other ones in that list?
glass anchor
well, in that case I'll make my own point animation to use as a base, but how does the game know when I activate it?
sand apex
If you look at the anim file for all of them they're the same thing
glass anchor
do I need to keyframe it to look exactly like the point gesture?
sand apex
Yes
glass anchor
well fuck, how is that possible >_>
sand apex
The game will know from the gesture you pick
If you want the fingerpoint it'll already be fingerpoint
you won't have to edit the bone to point
snow lance
is there a way to disable head tracking during animations? so that if your animation causes your character to move the head wont whip around and stare at you?
emotes specifically
sand apex
I think all you have to do is just add an animator for the head in your anim file
Like how you would with any other bone
I don't think the emote matters just make it so it's a hand gesture
It could be an emote if you want, whatever type of animation you're actually going for
just know if its an emote you'll have to edit the bones to where your body isn't half-way in the ground like in unity
snow lance
gotcha, that makes sense, thanks
one last thing if it's not too much trouble, i created a wing flap animation, and i want it to basically play constantly, i added an animation component to the model, and added the wing animation to that component, but it doesn't play in game.
torn geyser
Does the item you are putting in the avatar's hand need to have bones in it? I have watched tutorials and followed the instructions but my model doesnt seem to work and I'm not sure why.
snow lance
yeah i got everything about the emote working in game but the head, that was all i head left to fix
had* wow
do you know anything about the having an animation play constantly on a model?
sand apex
@snow lance check if the anim file for that is looped and that it's keyframes are right next to each other
Yes
formal wasp
I'm using a mixamo animation and in unity it plays just fine but in game the animation starts floating half way through? Anybody know what's wrong?
sand apex
go into debug for that wing anim file and check legacy + Loop for wrap mode
@snow lance also ignore the keyframes right next to each other part, just make it so the frames are set to "Auto"
Did you bake the animations to pose?
snow lance
no i didnt, should i?
sand apex
I was speaking to spaghetti about the bake to pose
snow lance
op, missed the lack of yellow, sorry
formal wasp
oh, how do I do that?
sand apex
Click on the dance anim and have it look like this http://prntscr.com/i3mljp
ivory raft
Anyone have issues with Unity not respecting loop points in an ogg file?
snow lance
@sand apex now it says that legacy animation clips cannot be used in animation controllers, it still lets me put it in though so do i just ignore the warning?
sand apex
Huh, did you add an animation component and put the animation clip in that right?
snow lance
yup
sand apex
I guess
snow lance
nevermind im incompotent >.> i forgot to clear my log so the last error was that one, i cleared and reapplied and didnt get any errors
ill load it up and test ingame
sand apex
alright
snow lance
@sand apex you are my spirit animal now, i love you man ❤
formal wasp
@sand apex That fixed it thank you
dim valve
Is there a way to activate visemes in Unity as animations or something similar? I have plenty made that I just realized I have no idea how to use.
west garnet
Hey everyone, does anyone know an alternative for Dynamic Bones Asset? I'm a poor fella xd
sand apex
Yeah you can do that once you get into unity and start dealing with animations
just know never decimate the face so you have those shape keys do it
glad topaz
Anyone know how to make an automatic loop for wings on a model? ive created the keyframes and set the fps and frames in blender but after i export into unity i dont know where to go from there
snow lance
@glad topaz about 6 or 7 messages up nightearic actually told me exactly how to do it if you want to look at those messages
glad topaz
ok cool ill check it out
snow lance
about 20 or so actually, chats moving faster than i thought
sand apex
I'm alright with repeating it
glass anchor
Hey, I used the trail renderer to create a drawing animation, but it seems like other people can't see it, does it no longer work?
willow rivet
Question. How do I fix this small problem that I'm getting saying that my avatar is "missing an animator"
sand apex
@glad topaz you should've also did the animations in unity
I can't really speak for animations done in blender
snow lance
@sand apex spoke too soon, wings are flawless now, but i still have the head issue, could i just hide the avatar view posistion for the duration of the emote with a keyframe?
sand apex
@glass anchor it still works, have you tried seeing if it was set to local?
glad topaz
@sand apex idk how to do animations in unity
glass anchor
lets see
sand apex
That may work I never really dealt with head problems
glass anchor
sec
glad topaz
i had someone helping me before but he only went over blender and exporting to unity
snow lance
hmm ok, ill try that and let you know
dim valve
I'm trying to follow this tutorial on it, but my visemes aren't showing up under the skin mesh renderer
sand apex
@glad topaz well first whenever you make an animation you need to click on your model and press Ctrl + D
Never make an animation on your original model
glass anchor
@sand apex was set to view, that's correct yes?
glad topaz
@sand apex this doesnt involve hand gestures does it?
glad topaz
nah im just looking for a auto loop idle kinda thing for my wings
sand apex
It involves that too
glad topaz
ok cool
naive heart
So I tried the animation again with the sound and it still doesn't work Idk what to do anymore
sand apex
retrace your steps or retry from the start?
naive heart
I tried like everything
sand apex
welp when in doubt, use a video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61vO-IswFps skip to 5:50
@glad topaz did you figure out how to set animations?
glad topaz
yea i figured out how with animator and blendshapes
sand apex
Good, make sure to right click on the keyframes and set them to auto
it'll make it so they loop smoothly instead of slowing down towards the end
snow lance
@sand apex still no luck, might be a limitation of the game? normally its not noticable i suppose because if your looking forward your model keeps looking forward, but mine runs in a circle, so to have it keep looking the way you are makes it look bad
sand apex
@glad topaz don't forget to click on the anim file, go into debug menu through this http://prntscr.com/i3n77r make the file legacy + loop for its wrap mode,
glad topaz
ok cool ill remember that
naive heart
nope
sand apex
Let me see what your anim file looks like
keen plank
Is it possible in any way besides sitting down to keep doing a gesture while walking on vive?
oblique pivot
omg i hate rigging, anytime I think i have it done right the model when i pose it scales and distorts and all kinds of shit wtf
sand apex
You can hold your gesture
keen plank
Trying to make an SCP-096 with the music but dont really work if the music cuts out when i start walking
As far as I can tell on vive you can't hold a gesture
sand apex
Put the music in an anim where it'll turn on and put it on a gesture so you have to hold that gesture for it to be on
You can, like when you fingerpoint?
snow lance
maybe he means since the vive uses the trackpad to move and gesture, you cant hold a gesture while moving?
dont have a vive so idk if thats true but thats all i could imagine
keen plank
On the vive you have to use the trackpad to do gestures so when you start moving it automatically switches back to the default stance
naive heart
I can't send a picture @sand apex
sand apex
don't use lightshot or imgur?
dim valve
I'll figure out how to get visemes to show up in my skin mesh renderer later. Gotta get to work.
sand apex
Your gestures should only be 2 keyframes
naive heart
I made the gestures 2 keyframes but a third one to hold the emote a little bit
sand apex
it should always be 0:00 and then 0:01
There's no need to try to hold the emote if it's going to play and end depending on how long you're using the gesture
naive heart
But it's a custom emote override not with gestures
If I set it to 0:00 and 0:01 it plays to fast
ashen mesa
I've got a Luigi avatar and I want to make an animation of his taunt from Brawl
the one where he pulls multiple poses in rapid succession
but when I go and animate him
naive heart
And I have already did it and the animation work but not the sound
sand apex
Make it so the audio source is all the way up from the beginning and make it so the game object for audio is active
ashen mesa
he curls up in the fetal position and won't animate
sand apex
Double check to make sure that the audio source on your model is invisible so it doesn't play
naive heart
the game object is active and how do I put it all the way up there?
sand apex
well your audio source volume is 0, put it to what it was supposed to be at the end of its keyframe instead of having it at 0?
naive heart
yea well I said it already it's supposed to be 0 at the start
its a Animation with keyframes like I said
sand apex
I mean it wouldn't hurt to just have it at max from the start regardless of what it is to see if that fixes it
naive heart
like just a question but the audio souce volume can only be 1 at its highest, right?
noble fern
anyone know how to apply a material finish to the inside of a cube?
sand apex
yes Danto
1 = 100% volume for whatever the music/soundclip is
and yeah Razzle, it's a shader called double sided
clear yew
Are pelvic thrusts caused by low distance between the spine and the hips?
sand apex
@naive heart yeah by the way if you haven't tried it already you should upload your avatar with the sound on by default to narrow it down to something being wrong with your animations
naive heart
like the sound always on?
sand apex
yes
clear yew
how do i import animations into blender?
naive heart
So I got a jumpscare 'cause I joined VRChat und the sound started playing in a loop

For anyone that has the same problem I had: I went into the rig configuration menu on the model I was animating, and reset all the stuff under muscles. That seemed to do the trick. My avatar originally got put into a weird pose where their hands were crossed when I started animating

trying to figure out how to have a 2nd animation to fire a gun. i have an animation set up so that i can pull the gun out and that works fine. from what i understand the audio file and muzzle flash would need to be on the original model, however, how would i tell it to only trigger on the 2nd animation?
@clear yew i have a spotlight attached to my gun on the flashlight attachment

@signal raptor Thank you!
@signal raptor So we can use flashlight to emit particles, too.

you could add an object above your head and use a lightsource like a spotlight to light it up

Hey guys, anyone know how I would animate a hidden prop to float in my avatar's hand with a slow rotation?
Would I have to set the prop's idle state to be rotating?

So, my model was originaly a .nif model. I imported him on 3DS max but I'm not able to export his bones alongside the model. I used maximus and the rigging on the body with it is perfect, but I want the rig on the face as well
Can I copy the bones of the .nif model to the .obj model?
Here is the .nif model on 3ds max

what's the best way to make particles appear for a gesture override?
like what should I keyframe
spice furnace
so i have a 60 frame long animation of a heart beating, works fine in unity. once i import it into the game and try to stop the animation by using another gesture, it keeps looping for 4-5 extra times before stopping. no idea why, anyone knows?
normal skiff
@indigo lintel I ended up putting an Animator on the prop and then linking the default state to the rotation. the only trap I had was that I had created the animation in a way that didn't allow me to use it on the prop until I fixed it
indigo lintel
@normal skiff Thanks bruh. I'll see what I can do.
normal skiff
I had a particularly hard time actually making the animation because I wanted a cube spinning on one corner
and what I have is still not quite right lol
indigo lintel
Yeah I'm trying to make a card spin on one corner.
indigo lintel
It would be, if this model would fucking behave.
normal skiff
that was my workaround, I put another Game Object around it and rotated the inner one to put it on its point at 0,0,0
noble fern
is there anyway to make audio come from small objects?
normal skiff
so then the outer one was a well-behaved model centred at 0,0,0, and I just rotate on Y only
noble fern
I'm having trouble with this working
ivory raft
Just create a 3d audio source and put it as the object's child
noble fern
yeah
indigo lintel
The bounds are completely fucked and as a result any attempt to transform the model makes it flip the fuck out
noble fern
but the thing is is that the sound distance is too great
normal skiff
ah it's like it's not at 0,0,0 in the original model or something
noble fern
I'm trying to have it only come from the object when you're inside it
normal skiff
hmm
normal skiff
yeah, seems totally fine...

is it possible to add a dance+music that's over 60 seconds?
since i'm on desktop preferably on an emote, but i heard it caps to 60 seconds? i hope not :x
normal skiff
emotes cap to like 10, right?
normal skiff
with gestures you can pull out objects which animate on whatever time scale you want
I also saw someone use something to spawn a particle mesh which then had its own separate animation somehow. not sure if that's possible with emotes
glass anchor
I'm having an absolute nightmare of a time trying to gesture these particles to life
the override works fine, the hands animate, but the particles dont appear
and I cannot for the life of me figure out why
normal skiff
I'm about to start my particle stuff but it does require a workaround for the world simulation problem
warm fiber
so without vr it's not possible to make my character do a dance with music in the background that's 3 minutes long?
glass anchor
@normal skiff what's the world simulation problem?
normal skiff
when you release a particle with world-space simulation it doesn't behave correctly with the physics you expect
glass anchor
oh you mean collision stuff
normal skiff
not just collisions
but the movement
some people were saying it just goes horizontally, other people were saying it just dropped
glass anchor
well what I'm going for is 2 particle systems, 1 on each wrist, that appear upon gesturing
I'm using an enable keyframe
that should work right?
normal skiff
yeah
and you'd be using local space simulation so it would avoid the other issue anyway
glass anchor
would you create the particle systems outside the avatar hierarchy then drag them in, or create them in the wrists?
just trying to narrow down where I'm going wrong
normal skiff
I would create them in a new game object under the wrist
glass anchor
hm
normal skiff
just because lately I feel keeping things as separate as possible helps keep sanity
then I can enable/disable the whole game object instead of one component
which matches how I do everything else right now
glass anchor
guess I'll give that a shot
thx
just to clarify, I'd right click the wrist and go "new game obj" or whatever
then right click the new obj and create new particle system?
@normal skiff
or would I create the game object outside the hierarchy and drag it in
normal skiff
I usually do it by right-clicking the thing I want it in
but my reasoning is more about getting a good default position
glass anchor
alright, I just wanna see if following a proven working method does anything
normal skiff
I haven't got a particle system to work yet, lol but I also haven't tried
tonight maybe
I'll make some fail versions of my gun where it exhibits the problems other people are talking about so that I understand them better
unless someone happens to come through with the magic words to make it work
indigo lintel
Okay, I have created a brand new model and manually applied the verts to the texture atlas I'd made previously

lucid remnant
if i wanted paritcles to appear when i do a gesture, thats the same as doing a regular animation for equiping a weapon right?

Just animate enabling and disabling the emitter and it should work
glass anchor
shit dude thats what I'm trying to figure out right now
@clear yew
do you mean the emitter property in the particle system
or just enable and disable the game obj
clear yew
I think you can animate the emitter property
Disabling the game obj makes particles that were already omitted vanish I think
glass anchor
yeah sorry bad phrasing
I mean having the game object disabled by default
then enabling it with a keyframe
or would it need to be the emitter?
clear yew
The emitter
glass anchor
damn, alright thx
clear yew
👍
indigo lintel
How do you turn off easing while animating?
I want an animation to be a clean loop, but easing is making it shitty
blissful root
Just double checking but particles can be attached to emotes correct?
blissful root
alright thank you
indigo lintel
Also I'm trying to apply 360 degrees of rotation and the object is essentially just sitting still :|
Because it can't tell the difference between the two keyframes, I guess.
Okay, fixed that problem, but the easing issue still persists
I'd like it not to slow down.
clear yew
Set the tangents to be the same on the start and the end
You can change how much easing there is by dragging them
I have a question
someone can send me avid on how to make a model from scratch in blender and then put it into unity?

blissful root
Still trying to get the particle animation to work, joints and everything is working fine but the particles themselves arent showing.
Any suggestions, trying to create a custom emote to overide one of the basic ones. All avatar movement is set and works the only problem im facing is having the particles actually appear, I cannot figure out how to make them work.
normal skiff
is it like, you want them to appear during the emote, or you want them to continue to be there after the emote?
because the latter seems like it might get overwritten when the emote ends
but during seems like it should just work
blissful root
want them to appear only during the emote.
clear yew
If I rig something up to so it does some animation, How can I have it do said animation after making a custom animation to pull it out?
Like I am doing a sword that extends basically
So when I pull it, I would want the custom animation to start the extention of it but I want that to be seen ingame, not just "happens"
normal skiff
you'd put an Animator on the thing you want to animate and then set up the animation as the default state
indigo lintel
Okay so even though I set my prop to rotate, it appears to be rotating my entire avatar. While this is hilarious, it is not the intended effect.
normal skiff
lol
maybe the animation (or the Animator) to rotate is somehow on the avatar's body as well as (or instead of) on the prop
indigo lintel
The prop is rigged to the avatar's armature, but that shouldn't matter since it's considered its own bone, right?
normal skiff
what I said is more about where the Animator component itself is located
indigo lintel
... I may be going about this the wrong way.
normal skiff
I have mine on the prop, and then my rotate animation was inside that Animator as the default/idle state
indigo lintel
Hmm
normal skiff
and I animated the prop by cloning the prop to root and animating it standalone with its own controller
but there was probably a way to salvage the first version where I did it while it was still attached
normal skiff
right-clicked the prop, Duplicate, then dragged that out of the hierarchy to root
indigo lintel
Oh, right, okay.
normal skiff
also when I did the rotation for my animation it put Position into the animation window as well, which I manually deleted afterwards
indigo lintel
Right.
normal skiff
I don't know if I needed to, but I really wanted it only to rotate so I figured position shouldn't change
indigo lintel
So where should I be placing the animation? This seems to be the root of my issue
I put it in my avatar's overrides since I figured it specified the prop
normal skiff
once I had the cloned prop at the root of the hierarchy I hit Ctrl-6 on that and created the new animation in that window
potent obsidian
Anyone done an animation to fire a gun before?
I've got mine working 99%, but the muzzle flash and bullet come out of my knee/feet area instead of from the gun.
normal skiff
and then I think the next step was opening the Animation Controller for the prop and dragging the new PropRotation.anim into that
normal skiff
yeah, if you double-click the Fool Arcana4 text in the Controller slot it should open the controller itself in some new window
normal skiff
and then in that, you can set up this complicated state machine of stuff, but all you need for a rotating object is the rotation as the initial state
indigo lintel
So just connect it to Entry?
normal skiff
I think it was Entry yeah
there were two initial boxes so I don't remember which was which atm
normal skiff
looks right to me
normal skiff
np, this area is complicated
I get the feeling that the legacy Animation way should work too but I saw the word legacy on it and immediately avoided
indigo lintel
lol, no doubt
...
I think my Unity project just got corrupted
That's interesting.
indigo lintel
I mean, the animations are where most of the work is and those are done, so
In fact almost all the work for this avatar has been done outside of Unity
Aaand we're back

Is there any animation program other than Unity? I'm having trouble animating my character 😦

@normal skiff you get your particles working?
I tried that worldspace workaround with the objects but it didn't seem to change anything. Local space is totally fine, but I'd like them to be world.
normal skiff
which workaround?
the crazy Spring Joint thing?
I won't be starting on my stuff until like another 5 hours or something

Is there any animation program other than unity?

With particle systems, how do I make it emit particles without enabling or disabling the system?
uneven wing
Pretty sure you have to either enable the system from disabled to start it
Or keep it running from the start infinitely
Anyone know if you can edit the jump animation?
surreal iron
hello, can anyone link me the non humanoid tutorial pls? i forgot to bookmark it
clear yew
Where do keyframes need to be if I am going to have something start AFTER the first animation begins? I also need it to stay in the finish form.
serene lava
hmm, apparently you can't change a particle system's duration in an animation
normal skiff
if you want to start one animation after another, maybe that can be directly done in the controller...
normal skiff
how was it done?
glass anchor
using the world particle workaround
with the rigibody and fixed joints
then keyframing the emission property
normal skiff
so it was the Joint thing
glass anchor
yep
uneven wing
Theres a workaround?
glass anchor
yeah guy found it about a week ago
normal skiff
there has been one floating around for a while but nobody has been documenting it
glass anchor
uneven wing
Gasp!
clear yew
What do you mean doing it with the controller?
uneven wing
I've found a new hero. It's you. Also that guy
glass anchor
lol
normal skiff
the animation controller lets you change from one animation to another due to an event
maybe one animation stopping can be an event
so you can just link one animation to the next
clear yew
Oh? Is there anything I can refrence for more information on how that works?
In game currently, the animation doesnt happen, it just comes out in the finished form
dunno why
normal skiff
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Animator.html is the manual page
so you'd have a state like Weapon Opening, and a Weapon Open
uneven wing
Random unity noob question while I'm here... a prefab, is just a saved.. built.. entire.. object in unity right?
normal skiff
pretty much
it's like a snapshot of a subtree of stuff you can use as a template
I've been using it a lot for repeating structures so that when I want to edit something I only have to do it once
uneven wing
So you can essentially download cool effects from the unity store and port into VRChat pretty easily?
Ah... thats a very good idea lol
Same me a ton of time
normal skiff
yeah a bunch of reusable things are distributed as a prefab too
uneven wing
I spent a day creating a gun that shoots a firework lol.. probably could have just downloaded an effect and tweaked it I imagine
normal skiff
wouldn't be as fun though right
uneven wing
Hahah not at all, although it would probably look better XD
However, I certainly learned a ton
normal skiff
I'm about to work on a gun that shoots slices of banana
uneven wing
Just need to learn the world object thing.... having the firework local is a bit odd since I can't keep my arm perfect straight for like 4 seconds lol
(I'm going off the assumption that world means the particle isn't affected by my movement anymore..)
normal skiff
it sounds like my second idea for the workaround was the same one someone else came up with w
uneven wing
Thats amazing
normal skiff
I didn't know there was a fixed joint though because the manual didn't list it on the page
uneven wing
Why not entire bananas? XD
normal skiff
the gun itself is a banana
uneven wing
Lol perfect
normal skiff
so yeah some worldspace particles + rendering particles using a mesh + physics on the slices and a bit of rotation
uneven wing
Alright.. I'm 100% sure I'm about to break something important on my animation lol
normal skiff
time to commit to source control
uneven wing

normal skiff
I'm in a bad state on my project actually, my avatars are fine but my world work is a mess because I don't know which bits of Standard Assets I'm using
normal skiff
shockingly, they're actually easier
uneven wing
Still on the avatar bit... although I'm about 70% on figuring out everything that can and can't be done... like editing jumping =/
Realy?
Hmmm
normal skiff
though triggers I haven't gone into yet
there is some trigger work that I'm not entirely sure how to do without scripting
well, my world is just for me at the moment anyway so it's fine
uneven wing
That sounds more difficult to me XD
normal skiff
well with avatars there were all the problems you can get with the bones and the model itself
but if you're building your own world you can just make it out of simple things that don't break
and you don't have to really use animation at all 😄
I just had a fiddle to see whether I could get unity to jump from one animation to the next solely using the controller, and the impression I got is that it's too hard so I quit w
unless it happens automatically when the motion for one state ends, I can't figure out how
uneven wing
Do I change simulation space to world on the particle for that tutorial... or keep it as local =/
Thats true
Avatars can get complicated
Though I'm sure worlds can too lol
normal skiff
there's a lot more of it I guess, if you want to make something really big it might get hard to keep track of everything
uneven wing
Lol I bet
normal skiff
I've been segmenting my build into rooms and corridors and keeping corridors as prefab so that I can reuse similar ones
uneven wing
Oh good idea
normal skiff
should be doing that for rooms too
uneven wing
Probably can build something pretty big doing that

normal skiff
just looking to build something a bit like my usual minecraft base layouts, platform with progressively lower platforms around
yeah there are a few mazes out there already
uneven wing
brb world particle test
normal skiff
no automatically generated ones yet though (custom scripts plz)
uneven wing
Ugh.. that test did not go well lol
That is pretty cool thoug
though
Not sure how you can keep an animation running while you are moving around though
normal skiff
I like how you start looking at particle systems and suddenly every second thing is a particle
my rotating cube animation keeps running while you're moving
normal skiff
the reason it can is that it doesn't involve any body parts which are part of the walking animation
uneven wing
Ooooh
I gotcha
The more you know
The more you get sucked into this black hole of avatar and world creation ><
I used to have friends....

I stil have friends but now they're rendered on the VR headset

Gah .. my particle doesn't work using the tutorial
Now the question is whyyyy
Oh.. maybe the simulation space cant be world
You have the same name in game?
Doh.. moved my gun on my main avatar.. didn't on the animations duplicate.. hopefully that was it
Wish I could help.. no idea
Hmmm got it to fire.. but it fires from a random location.. not my gun wtf

sweet zealot
Is there a way for me to put an animation to a prop that follows me around? Its a beating heart, so the animation loop is only a second long. How do i apply a looped animation to a prop?
normal skiff
@coral comet sounds like you have the simulation set to world and aren't using the workaround everyone is talking about
I just got mine working, apparently the mesh was already at 0.04 scale and setting the particle to 0.04 scale as well multiplied it 😐
the angle is all wrong but the particles come out of the right point
and somehow I accidentally had it firing by default w
blissful root
Cant even get the animation to show inside the game, avatar does al the right motions but the particles are a no show.
normal skiff
mine were showing up fine until I set it to display using the animation and now they don't

using Particle System.Emission Module.enabled
blissful root
already enabled it and the ingredient is enabled at 0:00
normal skiff
if I just turn it on in the Particle System though it displays
so the particles themselves aren't broken
so what's missing .. toggling Emission Module.enabled maybe doesn't work?
if I turn off the entire object and turn it on again, that works, but someone earlier was saying that it would hide the particles

Hey
When triggering animations via Gesture
Is it possible to have the same Gesture have 2 different animations per hand=?
Left Hand Gesture = Animation 1; Right Hand Same Gesture = animation 2
severe sierra
Nope
If you're doing the same gesture (thumbs up on both hands) it can only perform 1 override
if you do a thumbs up on the left hand and a fingerpoint on the right hand it will play both overrides that are assigned to those gestures at the same time though
I beleive unique gestures for each hand is a planned future feature though

the animation will automatically make it smooth from one point to another
