hi maybe someone can help me i cant creat an animation anymore on a model it just creat it but i just cant edit anything someone has the same problem ?
cosmic stratus
nvm i got it
golden oyster
i am also trying the same thing. the problem i have is that if i animate the main model and use a vr head set the model goes wacky on me.
@blissful arrow are you going to use a vr head set or desktop mode?
blissful arrow
headset
golden oyster
i am in the process of recording what my problem is when i use a head set.
so far i have done a few trial and error stuff to see how to get this to work.
the only thing i am trying to animate is to have it appear from a hand gesture with the model riding in it.
the model still tries to walk even when in the animation all the points are animated
i ether need to make a separate model of the bike and a copy of the main model fixed in the position and hide the true avatar. or make it so that the vr headset motions don't override the animation.
tacit axle
I don't believe there's a way to stop the ik from following head movements, you're probably going to have to add a separate biker for the gesture and hide the mesh of the real avatar. (make sure not to hide the skeleton itself, that makes it to where the character itself isn't active and you have to reload the avatar to use it again.)
golden oyster
@tacit axle i did think of that but if i hide the (body) that is under armature in the animation but all the meshes hide including the other bike model.
tacit axle
then it may technically be one mesh, as in the bike and biker are part of the same data. this could be solved in many ways. you could probably 'shrink' the bike to fit inside the real character, then use the second character's bike for the hand gesture. this is if the bike has a bone of course. another way would be to use blender to make the bike and the rider completely separate.
golden oyster
i do think i might make a viseme for switching the mesh as a last resort. right now i am switching the material on the main avatar into an invisible one.
tacit axle
that works too
golden oyster
so invisibility shadier did not work but the bike model was doing what i wanted so i am sticking to that separate model method.
Tried the invisibility and i cut a hole in space.
now i am going to see how it fairs with no shadier or material on at all
i know it can be done i have seen avatars on YouTube ride on a go-kart.
i think im finally on the right track

if you're making a gesture facial animation all values should be pasted at the 0 second mark and the one second mark
not sure why you want it to last for three seconds

It's been working flawlessly doing it that way with all of the other anims

Make an animator controller. Drag an animation clips into it. Make sure you can see the animator window in unity so you can do that
Then drag the controller onto an object so it adds the component + controller
Then use that to animate what you want

Does anyone know how to achieve the effect of a texture wrapping around a mesh? Meaning like, shooting a gun; the gun leaves a crack in a wall, and the crack conforms to the geometry of that wall. I've achieved something sort of like that, but it only works on flat surfaces because it uses a plane to project the particle effect on.
heady talon
@chilly pilot you have to fiddle around with cameras and projectors. But I don't think that's possible in vrchat. At least, not in other worlds or easily. You can look up deferred decals and look into that. Or how to project decals. I've only lightly touched this subject and gave up cus it was too much work than what I was willing to do for a public model.

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me with this. I'm desktop user trying to have an animation (fortnite emote) on my avatar but I want to have it loop and with a song playing along with it. Could anyone help me out in how to achieve this? Currently it just plays the animation once
and without song
cold pulsar
Don't have it be an emote, toggle a seperate model that plays the animation loop on gesture while making your main avatar invisible.
torn shale
any guide you can link me to get me on my way because this is something I have no experience with and I assume it involves some scripting no?
cold pulsar
It's animation. You should look up tutorials on basic unity animation
torn shale
ok I'll have a look but one specific question though. How do I trigger my avatar to turn invisible and the other to turn visible? Is that with the shift+F1 command and the others?
cold pulsar
Shift+f1 ect are the gestures yeah. You can make your avatar invisible by disabling your body gameobject
torn shale
ok so making the avatar visible and invisible and playing a looped animation can all be achieved by using the in-engine animating stuff? And this will end up to be one of these thingies?
cold pulsar
Yeah thats an animation. You need an animation to enable the second model and disable your own. Then that second model has its own animator and animation that loops the dance you want to do. When you let go of the gesture it will revert back to the original state
torn shale
alright, I'll do some digging on how to do this. Thanks a lot!
torn shale
Could anyone help me through this personally? I have looked at tutorials for an hour now and none seem to explain what I want to achieve. They just show how to put an animation on an emote or trigger slot. Not how to toggle your avatar and have a custom animation play on loop on the second avatar. I'm at a loss
cold pulsar
Don't look at vrchat videos. You want basic unity stuff
torn shale
can you link me a video in that case because there are like thousands concerning animation. And I don't need to make an animation per se. I have the animation already for the fortnite dance.

Hey, has anyone got chairs/seats to work on avatars since the new update? @ me if you've done it, because I'm struggling to make them work since the new update broke them.

@winter storm chairs/seats needs to have an animation in order for it to work
winter storm
How would I go about applying one to them?
and how would I have them permanently on?
young hearth
i haven't explore the chairs thing for worlds or avatar gestures yet sadly so i don't know
all i know is that in the new sdk version thats what you have to do, it was mentioned in the patch notes
clear yew
to make the chairs work on avatar, you need to activate them through an animator
I've tried to have two avatars, and toggle one with an emote,when I uncheck the "Is Active" in the animation for that avatar, It works well in the preview (although the model of the main avatar is in a weird position). But when I go to VRChat and play the emote, my avatar goes into the weird position for 2 frames and nothing else happens. (the avatars are two completely different ones)
Does it have to do with the update or am I doing something wrong? Because I have done pretty much the same as some tutorials but it won't work
torn shale
I'm really still struggling with the above issue, I watched the whole tutorial and applied what I saw in there, now I have my second avatar as child of my first. And I got the animation on the second one with a controller attached. Now how do I trigger this animation in-game and how do I make my first avatar dissappear when it plays?
clear yew
I think it is with the "Is Active" option, according to the tutorials I've watched, but I cannot get it to work, so...
torn shale
where do I find this option?
or the specific tutorial you found?
this is what I got right now
clear yew
Something like that
You have opened the animation controller. You don't need that right now. Instead, you have to open the animation tab and select the avatar
But you should do that on a copy, because it kind of screws the model
torn shale
I am on a copy, and in the animation I add my original model and make it inactive right?
and then add this animation to one of the triggers on the vrchat animation controller?
clear yew
Also, this one explains animations a bit better even though he doesn't explain how to hide something
torn shale
oh tupper made that, can't believe I hadn't come across that one yet
torn shale
oh it's not supossed to be a child I don't think
I removed it as a child and now I can add it

But in-game it doesn't play. It also looks like I'm playing with both my avatars overlayed on eachother. Even though one should be active and the other not
torn shale
ok I managed to make it trigger at least, but now it just makes my avatar dissappear and I see no second one and hear no sound

neon dust
Question for anyone generally smarter than I. I've been working on this avatar for a bit, and yesterday I hit the point where I laid out everything. facial animations for gestures on point, dynamic bones, shaders, and the mesh itself all properly intact. But when I go to upload it, it defaults into this idle animation that in turn, at least to what extent I can deduce, breaks the model's animations, causing it to move its fingers on its own and make subtle facial expressions. I attempted to replace the idle with something else, only to find the damage was already done in that regard and the facial expressions were still a little borked.
Any idea on how to fix this, or if I'm wrong about the problem, any idea what that could be?
Before the update I generally never needed to replace the idle in the override, and it would come out in the A pose as per usual, but ever since then no matter how many iterations of the avatar I pump out it all results in this one primary issue.
cold pulsar
@torn shale You should be disabling the body of your main model while enabling the second models main game object via gesture. I'm unsure what else you are doing.
@neon dust I don't quite understand your problem. Is it stuck in idle like that in game or in editor? Idle animations are mostly ignored when the user in in VR.
neon dust
That's the thing, its not ignoring it completely for whatever reason. Its allowing me to use gestures and the overrides kick in promptly, but there's this faint trace of the idle animation that generally shouldn't be there i.e. the fingers moving around on their own and the face on occasion making a subtle expression.
cold pulsar
From what I'm aware that has always been there. Whats wrong with taking the provided idle animation and removing those idle movements?
neon dust
See that's what I pretty much thought as well, but when I looked into the provided one just a few minutes ago, the movements aren't actually coming from there. oy vey.
Also double checked to make sure my shapekeys weren't out of order in any capacity, no issues there.
cold pulsar
The default idle animation has finger movements and such so you can try to cut those animations and see if it does anything
It may be more obvious on some models versus others
neon dust
Fair, I'll attempt this and see what comes of it. Thank you kindly

You can't have animations on gestures iirc, not long ones
Gesture animations have to be a single frame
If I remember right, if you want an actual animation on a gesture you have to use the gesture to spawn a duplicate which plays the animation

Stack the gameobjects. Have a parent and child that are both disabled. First gesture enables the parent but does nothing since the child is disabled. Then second gesture at the same time enables the child which would do nothing if the parent was disabled. Need both gestures active to enable the child and then have what you want under that

hey
chilly pilot
I'm trying to change values in a material using an animation, but Unity's not letting me. Instead, when I try and finagle a solution, it gives me this:
does anyone know what this means, or what to do about it?
The thing I'm trying to animate's a modified... I really don't know what - it's from the KryptoFX package.
Far right. I want to change the material properties but Unity says no.
cold pulsar
Using a package like KryptoFX it has scripts which you can't use. Have you removed all black listed items from the particles you are trying to use?
chilly pilot
Oh? I... think? It's not the particles that are the issue. That splotch of lava is projected over geometry. It's not a particle. As far as I can tell, projectors are allowed, no?
If not through this method, what's another I can use that VRC will let me that accomplishes the same thing? Wrapping something around geometry, that is.
cold pulsar
Uh there was a specific shader give me a second
I havent played with it much and it doesnt work in editor but I dont think you can have a projector on avatars
chilly pilot
According to some reddit posts that's the case, yes.
Projectors are allowed on worlds but not on avatars.
I'm playing with this now. It seems... sort of like what I need? But even in the event I could get it close to what I want it to look like, the shader itself is so limited I don't think it'd do much for my animations.
Still, thank you for the suggestion.
cold pulsar
Yeah welcome to avatar creation lol
chilly pilot
I've done it for a while, just never anything of the complexity I'm doing now.
I have ideas I want to act on but VRC and Unity are butts : (
cold pulsar
Yeah once you get deep you realize all the limitations that are there
Usually have to settle with things that are close but not perfect
chilly pilot
I don't know if there's anything that'll get this how I need it that isn't projection-based.
chilly pilot
With this in mind though, now I'm left wondering: how do people do things like bullet holes? What I'm trying to make is, in essence, just an enormous bullet hole.
cold pulsar
When I asked my friend he gave me the shader i gave you
Or do you mean particle wise
chilly pilot
Yeah.
cold pulsar
Have the bullet particle create a sub particle that's a 3d cube that sits there. That 3d cobe has the decal shader on it
Create sub particle via burst on death

another question, unrelated (sort-of): is there a way to create artificial lights using particles? For example: https://youtu.be/tK1fOsCLXxY?t=111 what the big stone guy is doing. If you go frame by frame or your eyes are sharp, you can see shafts of energy/light radiating out of the ground and into the air above.

Particles can have lights on em but here you would just want tall, high emission billboards going upwards imo

Thanks @wooden ivy I’ll check it out.

Does anyone know how to make particles that persist after an animation's ended or been cancelled? Someone recommended that I enable the particles on my base avatar to be always on, but with a burst emission of zero, and change the burst emission value with an animation attached to a gesture. I've done that, and (at least for me, and presumably for everyone else) nothing is happening.
chilly pilot
The typical way of doing gestures is still entirely functional (using a clone of the avatar to make an animation to enable the particles or what have you), which... I mean it works, but you know.

How can i adjust viewpoint of an custom sitting animation? My custom ground sitting animation viewpoint is at ground level instead of where the head is.

@ my post
Is it because the original particles on the model aren't set to looping, maybe? 🤔
chilly pilot
so I enabled looping on the particle systems
I disabled the looping with the animation and set the bursts to a value with the same animation
the animation worked!
... once.
and it didn't work after that.

enabled looping on both things

Offset locally or only in the mirror? For me it's just in the mirror that they're offset.
I should note I'm using the VRC_IKFollower script
The one that breaks when you sit down. -_-

You should not use rigid bodies or VRC IK followers anymore. Using the parent constraint is more reliable.

Since using the new Unity version my avatar no longer stays in a t pose once I hit play then stop. He's now always in the stance they take in play mode. Anyway to fix this or is anyone else even experiencing this issue? Making it tough for me to animate stuff onto him.

Youve applied the vrchat animator, have you tried the pinned fix in this channel for something similar to that?

I can get him back into the t pose, just he goes right back if I hit play then stop. Even if that original is hidden and I have a duplicate they both change from T to idle after I hit stop. And yes, this is an avatar I ported from the previous Unity.
I've made many avatars, this is only happening to me on the new recommended Unity version.
Alternatively, what will happen if I upload my avatar and he isn't in a t pose in Unity?

pulsar wraith
idk if this is the right channel, but I'm making an avatar with a spawnable object, I know how to do that, but the object has multiple animations linked to it, do I need to add a version of the object for every animation and make it spawn in a version with the desired animation? or can I control the object's seperate animations with seperate gestures?
clear yew
Kris, Animations should be two frames long only, 0 and 1 frame. Otherwise the animation will "stick" on your hand and slowly revert to the off state.
Most animators work around this issue by having their animation enable an object with an idle animation of what they want to happen. We're just turning on and off an object.
proper hedge
@pulsar wraith you can control it, but it usually takes a good amount of planning and esoteric knowledge
Try to describe what you are making. in a generic sense, you need to have several parent objects with animators, and you use another set of parent animators to handle them
proper hedge
you typically only need one instance of the visual thing you are animating
pulsar wraith
oh so I don't need to make seperate models, but I do have to make seperate objects with animators on that model? (assuming I'm understanding it correctly)

I watched an Ornstein fight video, you're going to have to learn particles and give them lightning traits, and not just use pictures of lightning

Is it a VRChat glitch that when you switch gestures it'll start doing your previous gesture for a tiny bit?
clear yew
if your gesture is more than 2 frames then yes
Yeah, it's a commonly known problem, which is why most people developed a habit of doing the fist gesture randomly to clear their gestures.
It does it with normal gestures they're talking about
does it ?
oh you meant the 0,1 second of animation
ya that's "normal"
been like that for years
chilly pilot
icic
that's... annoying.
And there's nothing to be done about it except making a fist between gestures?
clear yew
basically yeah
chilly pilot
well that sucks.
progress.
the only thing I really want more out of these anims is them not stopping the moment I switch gestures
I tried experimenting with making animations to change the burst value from 0 to [whatever it needs to be] in the particle systems but it never worked quite how I needed it to.
I think I'm just reaching the limits of VRC avatar creation and it's frustrating me.
clear yew
I've been told that setting the particles to the world setting makes it so that they don't despawn immediately after the particle system disables, so bullets and bullet holes and bullet cartridges stay.
I don't know how accurate this information is since I've yet to do it myself
chilly pilot
🤔
I've already done that.
if by that you mean, setting the simulation space to world.
All that does is let you use world particles, and only then if they're not attached to the armature unless you wanna do a lot of weird stuff with rigidbodies

Trying to make non-looping gestures for a model, however when I test the model, the character constantly loops the first gesture.
is there a way to fix it, or do I just need to make animator-oriented gestures for each of the broken animations?
jade sparrow
@clear yew are you adding an audio source to your scene?
@chilly pilot the main camera just has to be in range of the audio source to hear the played audio. Don't have to be in game mode to do it.
chilly pilot
🤷
jade sparrow
XD
They are probably not adding an audio source
We will know when they reply
The main thing I do in vrc is animate 🙂
jade sparrow
@cursive jungle make sure you check that "Loop Time" is ticked off on your animation file
should look exactly like mine
also your gesture should look like this
2 frames, both on
If you dont manage to get it working, feel free to DM me
proper hedge
@chilly pilot if you don't want to write defaults with your gesture after you stop using it, you need to use an animator component, or if JUST particles(not audio), you need to subemit with separate hierarchy or use the trigger module with the gesture
for the animator component you need to know how to animate with behavior.enabled
chilly pilot
What question are you replying to @proper hedge ? I’ve asked a few
jade sparrow
@loud nebula Not the place to ask this. Those are seen as malicious and unfortunately wont be explained on this server.
It's still the same mechanic unfortunately.
odd latch
well, I hope the admin addresses the lack of spatialaudiosource component on avatar audio sources
a lot of new avatars from new creators have map-wide audio and they get annoying the third time you hear them
jade sparrow
@odd latch Yes, unfortunately a lot of people abuse the freedom that VRChat gives us. I recommend setting custom safety settings and just "showing" peoples avatars when you need to. I hide everything but Voice and avatar on everything but friends, and friends have everything on.
odd latch
I mean, I assume they just don't know how to set spatial blend to 3D
being new creators, they are unaware they're putting "bad" audio on their avatars
the SDK did that before for avatar audio sources, I'm just wondering why the component is not added by the new SDKs
maybe I just don't find the coffin dance funny anymore, and I'm too focused on what makes that avatar bad
jade sparrow
There are scripts that allow world devs to help with the special audio for player voices etc, but people still do not use it. The VRC_Player Audio Override allows map devs to have a lot more control over player audio. It's down to the map developers themselves to implement it.
For the comment you just made, they know, its auto set to 3d by default. But as I said previously, people take advantage of the freedom the VRC devs give us as players.
odd latch
auto set to 3D, by Unity or by the SDK? I keep having to set the spatial blend to 3D whenever I make the audio source object, so maybe I don't notice the SDK setting it to 3D automatically on publish
solemn bone
anyone know how to make a sound play during an emote during a specific point?

I made an animation that makes me jump superhigh. However, it seems like there is a culling issue. If I or someone else looks away from the cloned model I use for the animation, it disappears from their view until the animation is finished and the actual model returns. This is consistent with Unity’s play mode. Does anyone know a way I might fix this?
chilly pilot
I found out what the problem is. There’s some kind of bug where if you’re using the root instead of key framing the position of the avatar itself, there is some kind of a oclusion bug.
jade sparrow
@chilly pilot Don't animate the root of models, if you want to move them around with less headache, place the model into of an empty gameobject and move that around, and then do all the other animations (moving bones etc) on the model itself.
@solemn bone You need to keyframe it to turn on.
Brief example.
1 gameobject with everything inside of it, then place a animator component onto the gameobject, add an animation file to it and animate from there.
Its a big must do for organization while animating.
It helps when you start making larger animation.
chilly pilot
ye I figured it out
jade sparrow
🙂
chilly pilot
just tacked on an extra ~10 minutes of rekeyframing shit
chilly pilot
I'm working backwards from mixamo stuff so it's a process
but I think I'm finally done this animation
jade sparrow
its mainly because I animate using generic models
not humanoids
gives me more control
They files always have issues being converted to generic since its a completely different animation style (component wise)
chilly pilot
is it a new VRC bug where it just doesn't upload custom animations sometimes
jade sparrow
no?
chilly pilot
been happening to me on occasion
jade sparrow

Well it still sometimes caches weirdly, even if the name changes. Just make sure to clear your cache in the advanced settings when you upload new stuff
Sometimes I have to delete the model/upload it with a new blueprint id
chilly pilot
ye that's usually what I wind up doing
jade sparrow
Avatar animations has been becoming harder and harder to do with the updates. I hope to see more people making more serious story based animation in the future. Currently its down to a few people who still make largescale animations which aren't just super cancerous.

what about adding a flat texture of molten ground for the surface?
jade sparrow
@chilly pilot Did you make those particle systems?
If you did, that's top class stuff.
chilly pilot
I made the particles yeah
@odd latch I actually tried to do that with projections but I learned after getting them all set up that avatars can’t use them. I didn’t want just a flat plane because I wanted it to conform to map geometry
One thing I’m still trying to figure out is how to get particles/sound to persist after I end the gestures
jade sparrow
@chilly pilot Unfortunately you cannot. Do you mean a toggle gesture? Because what we are doing with gestures is turning an object on instead of moving shape keys or bones. Once you let go, it resets.
generally you would want to animate everything and tailor your music to the exact size you want. Audacity is a free audio editing software you can use to do such things.
odd latch
which file type offers the best quality? I'm not very familiar about the differences between mp3, wav, ogg, and other types
I tried exporting an audio clip from a video file with audacity, I was not particularly satisfied with the quality so I was wondering if there's anything to preserve the quality from the original clip
chilly pilot
I know for fact particles can persist after a gesture ends, at least. I've seen models pull out a gun, fire the gun, put it away, and the bullet's still wizzing way off in the distance.
I'm just not sure how they did that.
solemn tartan
how do i decrease the transition time between the idle hand and a gesture?
clear yew
@chilly pilot Here's a quick explanation of how it's done
chilly pilot
🤔
I'll experiment with this tomorrow. Thank you.
Do you set the animation to looping or anything?
What about the particle systems themselves?
solemn tartan
is there some sort of fixed limit on how fast you can teansition between gestures because ive seen emotes practically teleport but i cant seem to figure out how to make this gesture transition faster
odd latch
gesture animations are already set up with only two frames, start to end
you can't get lower than that
maybe you can give the animation itself a speed multiplier? haven't tried myself, just a thought
is there a general method on how to obscure parts of an object
for example, I want to pull a long stick from a small bag
I'm thinking there's an invisible object attached to the bottom of the bag that's also hiding parts of the stick as I "pull" it from inside the small bag
is there a shader for that?
proper hedge
Stencils
@chilly pilot both particles and objects can persist after the gesture ends. For particles, just make a normal submitted particle, then drag it outside of the parent system. That way you can trigger the submission without interrupting the particle
hard hornet
Could someone help me understand what's going on here? I have an animator set up to switch a dynamic music track back and forth seamlessly. In the image below, the left image shows the animator working perfectly in play mode. The blue bar is there to show that the animations are being played. However, as shown in the image on the right, sometimes and for no apparent reason, the animator will not show any blue bars, and the animations will not play at all in play mode. I change nothing about the animator, nothing about the animations, and at times, nothing else in the project. It just decides to work randomly. Is this a Unity bug? Do I have some sort of setting active that bugs animators out?

@wicked trench there is an addon made by vrc member called "Better Keyframing" https://gumroad.com/l/XccBE
You place it under your dopesheet and place your audio into it, then just sync your keyframes right with the waveforms. I can't animate without it. Definitely a must have for animators.

You can do it that way yeah. Or you could material switch into an invisible material. 0
odd coral
But when I make it uncheck and I undo the gesture my character stays invisible. Would I have to make another gesture to check it again or something.
And when I'm invisible People cant see other items I hold (from other gestures)
clear yew
because your mesh is disabled
and the skinned mesh component isn't visible anymore
so your body is never culled again
odd coral
So would there be another way.
clear yew
you'll need a shader for that
Or a maxed cutout if your shader supports cutout
Might not appear for other people though
clear yew
I mean, standard can do it.
odd coral
What settings do I change though.
clear yew
Change to cutout and raise alpha cutoff to max.
Don't need to assign a texture if you do that
odd coral
If I put it on my characters body the body just turns white.
clear yew
Are you doing it right. Cause I have it pulled up and working for me
odd coral
I made a new material, put it on cutout, than turned alpha cutoff to max.
and to test I dragged it onto the body.
clear yew
What's your color alpha set to for the albedo map? You want it at 0
odd coral
O, it worked.
It was cause I had the color at 255,255,255

and has full music on gesture F4 (POINT)
nimble ridge
yes
clear yew
it's not humanoid, so what's the magic?
nimble ridge
that does not mean its not humanoid
its humanoid, but pretending to be generic
basically the armature has no mesh and there is a plane with the image that is well, the avatar, on the avatar root.
clear yew
so what procedure am I to do? Most tutorials end up going for the "add property" in Animations tab
which here is greyed out.
nimble ridge
well first you will need a full humanoid armature
clear yew
the image has nothing to make an armature though?
nimble ridge
well that does not matter since you will not weight paint any bones to that plane
clear yew
so i need to go and have it done on blender?
nimble ridge
yeah, could just open a normal avatar in blender and steal it armature
deleting the body mesh should do the trick
clear yew
so you're saying working with the simple-est object out there, is actually harder, than with a complete mesh with all features and candy?
sounds difficult for a flat plane.
i've worked with full meshes, but not a flat image.
thought I'd nail that without a sweat, turns out i know nothing and it's harder.
nimble ridge
eh, its easier with planes really since no need to worry about blend shapes, eye tracking, weight painting, proportion and so on
proper hedge
@clear yew you just need an animator
you cant edit an animation clip without an animator for context
clear yew
followed tutorials, doesn't work, greyed out.
if i can't click the button, can't add audio source into animator
proper hedge
because you have no animator
clear yew
AND i HAD it
proper hedge
are you trying to make a gesture, or emote?
clear yew
.....what
NO
i'm trying to add a short audio clip that plays when you execute a gesture
but since this is a flat plane, i have no idea.
proper hedge
okay so you're making a gesture. duplicate your avatar, drag the clip onto the duplicate. it will make an animator for you and then you can add your property
clear yew
let me try this.
nimble ridge
also don't forget to add the audio source itself
clear yew
when i play this it does not make sound

I've been having a problem when I'm making a gesture to take a hat off and have it go to the hand it doesn't want to do the animation in game. I have the game object and everything active in the animation. ):
I don't know if something changed in the update or not since I was able to do it just fine before the update.

Does anyone know why muscle editor is not showing my avatar, i have it selected and it doesnt do anything

Yes, my avatar is already in vrchat, i just wanted to add some things but its not working
muted prairie
is it humanoid ?
strong laurel
yes

You might need to select a part inside the prefab then
Can you show your whole screen and what you're selecting
strong laurel
i have selected everything in diferent orders click and unclick bones, armature, the Parent, and click refresh and nothing
muted prairie
i'm not too sure sorry
strong laurel
found it! the solution was deleting the MAE folder, aparently the first time that you import the editor, it has extra files that it doesnt need.

In the dev stream they mentioned something that allows you to move an object from one place to another. For example a gun from the holster into the hand without having a duplicate model to simulate holstering. I forgot what that was called and I'm also no sure where to do that. In unity or blender?

Quick question, I don't know if the issues with chairs on avatars (vrc_stations) have been fixed yet but, if they haven't, I was wondering how you would enable the chair via an animator? I've never had to do that before so I'm not sure how to start exactly... Would you need to create an animation or animation override before going into it and enabling the chair or something?
proper hedge
Chair off by default, animator on parent object on by default. The animator clip animates the chair on
Learn how to use the animator component
white skiff
okay? what do you mean by the parent object? is that the place on the armature the chair is placed at?
proper hedge
Parent object is the object that another object is nested inside
toxic sphinx
Does anyone know how to make your avatar invisible and visible by hand emotes ?
Or to hide your nametag
white skiff
oh, gotcha. but the vrc_station is directly applied to the chair which is tied to the wrist of the armature. would that mean that the chair is it's own parent object since it's not nested inside of a different object? I get that the parent object is the one that another is nested inside but I don't see any identifying factors for that. all I have is the VRC_Station with a box collider part of the Chair object that's tied to part of the model's armature.
Sorry, I don't mean to be a pain if I am, I just want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly...
odd coral
I know how to animate and all that but I've been wondering what the "Avatar Controller" does.
odd latch
@white skiff try this
create empty object outside of the avatar object
parent a chair to that empty object
turn the chair object off
create an animation for the empty object, it will automatically create a controller for the empty object
in the animation, enable the chair object, make sure to turn off looping on that animation
put the empty object on your wrist bone
I haven't tried this, but this is what I'd do, it's just a quick answer since no one else has responded
remember to animate objects while outside of the avatar object, or else the avatar will go into the crouching pose and ruin your pose
white skiff
alright @odd latch thank you so much for the help, I'll give that a try when I can! 😄 thank you
proper hedge
@white skiff if the chair object is merely constrained to the wrist, while sitting at the base of your avatar as a sibling of Armature and Body, then it's only parent would be your avatar object(the object with the descriptor on it)
you would need to add a parent
so, create an empty game object, place the chair inside as a child
put an animator on that parent object. make the animator play a clip that enables the child chair object(from being off by default)
pulsar mulch
does anyone have a fast explanation for double hand gestures?
odd latch
it's layered activation
ObjectA
ObjectB
both are disabled
GestureA enables ObjectA
GestureB enables ObjectB
to enable ObjectB, you must also be enabling ObjectA by doing GestureA
for example, GestureA activates a gun, GestureB fires the gun
you can't fire the gun if you're not doing GestureA at the same time
is this the explanation you're looking for? @pulsar mulch

Can you make a emote to toggle between gesture sets for expression i believe I saw that done but how?
So you could have more expressions in the model
clear yew
Dreadrith, I mean, one possible way to do it is to use a custom animator on the model (not the root animator because that one gets replaced) and build a state machine that cycles between a bunch of different songs and stops when you hit a button.
The general concept can be found here

do you guys know how to hide your nametag?
clear yew
A big container to cover it from all sides.
And a shader to cut it out but show the world through it

how would i make something spin
split flower
If you want something to spin it’s a not very fun process , it involves using two different objects if you want to be able to enable and disable the spinning and going into the node editor to change the animation smoothing to linear to make the constant spinning effect
It really takes an impact on avatar performance but if you really want it, it can be done

narrow iron
is there a way to make an animation continuously replay in an emote?
pliant harness
yeah been wondering the same thing
fervent plaza
I think you can just click the loop check box, on the animation file, otherwise idk if the SDK made it so it can only last a certain amount of time.
pliant harness
the thing about it is...is that
it'll replay in the unity thing, but it wont replay in vrchat
itll do one time and thats it
fervent plaza
Then you will need to set it as a gesture, and have a separate amature and body to spawn when you do the gesture
pliant harness
well i already have it set to emote
fervent plaza
Emote wont loop, based on what you said
otherwise I think you can use an inventory system, to make it spawn a model with the animation attached, and then disable your characters skinned mesh renderer.
pliant harness
im already confusion
fervent plaza
If you want a emote to loop, you use a inventory system. otherwise, you will need to make it a gesture.
Both will require you to make it so the emote/gesture disable your skinned mesh (body) and enable another character model that is attached to your armature.
These are the methods I know from before the 2018 update, not sure if there are newer ways.
Question:
For some reason my Animator keeps getting disabled when I click onto the animation timeline. Because of this when I hit the play button in the game scene, the animation wont activate. Is there something I am missing?
mighty iron
is the audio you added to an emote supposed to play in the building process?
covert patio
i dont think it should? Because it should be disabled. Then the emote enables it. if it is playing in the building process, i'd imagine it's cuz it's enabled.
thin karma
how do i make enable and disable animations for my avatar?
jaunty nest
gestures or emotes with a custom animation controller? is that what you are looking for?

clear yew
@thin karma xiexes inventory manager
pliant harness
okay so im trying to figure out how to add a dance with a song onto my avatar, but it only plays the song and opens and closes its hands
hollow perch
needs to be in an emote slot, not a hand gesture... OR you duplicate your avatar, put the animation on the duplicate, uncheck it, drag it inside your main avatar, and in the gesture slot, instead of playing the animation, you check the unchecked avatar copy, and you hide your Body mesh.
the emote slot won't affect your performance rank, but it gets cut off after 1 minute and gets activated from the emote menu.
The second one will activate from a gesture and keeps playing forever, but it doubles the amount of stuff for the performance rank
pliant harness
well the emote doesnt repeat it just plays for as long as the dance goes....and the dance can be looped it just wont loop
@hollow perch
hollow perch
to loop it is easy: you can check Loop Time / Loop Pose in the animation clip
I was addressing the part about "it only plays teh song and opens and closes its hands" - that means you put it in a gesture slot not an emote
pliant harness
i would like to show you what its doing....
and i do loop it doesnt loop in vrchat it just stops
thin karma
thank you so much guys ❤️

I'm having issues getting an animation working for sheathing/unsheathing a weapon. Tried duping the weapons in the hands and putting them in the sheathe and having one vanish and the other appear, problem was that it was linked to the hand when in the sheathe so it moves so I fixed that issue but couldn't figure out how to connect it to the chest so it stays in the sheathe so I tried bringing the weapon in on its own into unity but it wont become part of the model and they are just staying as avatars on their own. I'm at a dead end, unsure what else i can do.

clear yew
If it's on the model by default then you'll have to use an invisible material.
If it's added on with a mesh renderer then you can just disable the object
bold sonnet
it’s just a mesh within unity but I have tried disabling it on the duplicated model and deleting it too but still shows when I play the animation
As I still want it to show when the animation is not playing
young hearth
you have to animate your character model without the lolipop including in with the lolipop that is held on your character's hand, thats how it works.

thats what im trying to figure out how i would go about doing this, how would i put two animations together
into one animation clip

Copy. Paste.
clear yew
i'm having slight trouble with the audio on emotes
i have moved the audio up, made the volume at 1 but when i try to play the emote it's very very low
Probably because it's too loud at base.
VRChat automatically detects this and changes your volume settings accordingly.
huh
undone edge
So, I made an avatar animation which I sent to a hand position, why can I not quickly turn the animation on and off in game, it takes ~4 seconds to return to my normal hand position
how do I make it not do that
jade sparrow
@undone edge are you using gestures or emotes?
@clear yew vrc has a runtime mechanic to turn down very loud audio, you are able to make your audio louder, but I wont explain how to do that here.
@narrow iron Retro sells this mechanic, it is not public how he made his inventory system.
@bold sonnet if the lolipop is a separate mesh you just need to animate the mesh renderer to turn off. You can add as many layers as you want to the dopesheet of your animation. If its a gesture, it will be 2 frames (both the same) for each item you are trying to trigger.
(Going to bed, will reply to dms and pings in the morning)
@bold sonnet
undone edge
@jade sparrow it's a hand gesture

@jade sparrow

ok that looks fine
now I want to see the inspector while you click on the animation file
you need to make sure you have loop time off

it loops the animation

So im trying to make a system for firing dual weapons (the gestures and everything work fine as intended) but im having an issue with the rendering of the particle systems on the weapons. Im trying to make a gun fire effect but when I upload to vrchat the particle just gets stuck in the ground. I have the simulation space set to world (seems to cause the issue) but setting it to local makes the particles move with my hand (not what I want). Does anyone know a fix to world simulation space particles getting stuck on the ground in game? Thanks. If you need more info or have questions just ask and Ill do my best to answer
I heard something about having to add a rigibody component to the wrist but if I do so the SDK will prevent the model from being uploaded.

you need an animator on each one
the emote should just enable the disabled objects, and the animators should be on by default

Is there a way to make custom hand gestures not take really long to go to a different hand gesture
undone edge
@clear yew for me, when ever I do a custom hand gesture that I made (ex. putting an item in my hand) while it's instant, when I switch to something else, it slowly moves the hand to the hand gesture
clear yew
then you have more than frame 0.00 and 0.01
you need just one frame of animation for gestures

Hey, I'm new to working with particles in Unity. I've seen avatars that have different particle behavior when the gesture is enabled and disabled. For example, starting the gesture charges up an attack, and releasing it fires the attack. Anybody know how this is done, and if there's a guide for it?
proper hedge
there are a few ways to do it, i don't know of any guides really
if you know how to animate, basically you are just animating a property to 1 when you stop using the gesture
meaning the default property value needs to be 1, and the gesture animates it to 0
that's the basic idea. but it comes with problems
vast fern
Okay, I think I get what you're saying, but won't that mean the effect triggers when spawning in for the first time?
proper hedge
cause if your default value is 1 you need to prevent the effect from firing yes
there are multiple strategies for overcoming that problem
i have a package here for animating on release. it's probably more robust than what you need if you're just doing particles only, but this how i would recommend doing it overall
vast fern
Honestly, having no sense of direction at the moment, anything helps. Thanks, I'll take a look.
proper hedge
doesn't come with a guide, but it should be readable i hope
use gesture manager
will help you test
vast fern
I've never messed with the gesture manager. Does it work with the two gesture trick? The particle animation I'm making is pretty beefy, and I don't wanna trigger it by accident.
proper hedge
yes you can test gestures exactly the way the overrides work in game
vast fern
Gotcha, thanks again.
proper hedge
for the on release prefab there, the point is that the last animator there will be started on release of the gesture
there is a gesture example, iirc
you can put an arbitrary animator there. i have provided a sample animator that just turns on a child game object
jade sparrow
This tool is super useful! Ive been looking for it for a while. Thanks @proper hedge
vast fern
Sorry for the delay, I was making my particles how I liked it before I opened up the on release package you made. I've never worked with the animator tab before, but I assume that I'm just supposed to click on the start behavior node, and replace the Motion section with the animation I actually want?
Just wanna make sure I'm doing this right before going in too deep
Oh, also assuming I copy that thing in the default that changes the animator state as well.
vast fern
Wait, nope, now I think I understand. I don't think you even have to touch that tab. Took me longer than I care to admit to put the pieces together, but I realized what all the names mean.
urban oasis
may i request help with shift key animations
vast fern
Alright, I've tried tinkering with the prefab and I think I didn't actually understand it. Here's how I set my hierarchy
Basically, the combo gesture works well enough. I'm able to use two emotes to activate both game objects and activate the charging sequence. The problem is, the fire sequence then activates immediately afterwards, without releasing the gesture.
Deactivating and reactivating the gesture just causes it to immediately play the fire animation again. Strangely enough, the fire animation deletes itself from the hierarchy after it finishes playing. I'm well and truly stuck and don't know how to proceed.
Whoops, sorry, forgot the image
urban oasis
well guess i wont get help here then
vast fern
In fairness, you didn't specify what the problem you're having is. What are you trying to do exactly?
urban oasis
lemme give a screenshot
this is the problem
the actual emote wont play it just turns into a statue and duplicates itself
i have zero clue how shift key animations even work and i only got a bit of info from someone else and im stuck

When you say shift key animations, do you mean on the keyboard using Shift+F1 through F8? Just trying to make sure I understand what it is you're saying here.
urban oasis
yes
clear yew
What exactly are you trying to do with that? Why are you spawning a duplicate of the model? Are you trying to make it dance when enabling a gesture?
vast fern
Can you take a screenshot of your Unity hierarchy so we can see what that looks like?
clear yew
Put an animator on the duplicate
Put an animation controller on the animator of the duplicate
Set the animation controller's default state to the dance animation.
vast fern
Not all of it, just the base objects, though it seems like Panda knows more what they're talking about than I do
vast fern
The override on the main model I think, but the animators on the duplicate.
urban oasis
you mean the one with the play symbol and the 3 boxes
?
this?
i feel like i need a guiding voice showing me what to do
i hope i get more help because i am still confused
vast fern
Sorry, but as I posted earlier, I know next to nothing about animators, I can't help

man the yt videos dont help neither because they use a different version and the one i tried just got rid of the animation i had

Hello, I'm new to VRChat and interested in the animations of the Avatars, I understand that they are limited to 8 animations/gestures and they are triggered by shift+F keys on keyboard and hand positioning on VR. My question is how does Index Controller work to hand gesture all of the fingers if it needs one per finger and there's only 8?

You make the assigned gesture with your hand.
We have to make it so all the different controllers are somewhat standardized and compatible with each other.
