thats how i have it set up and its still not spawing at all
the animation is just turning the object on and then off a couple seconds later
muted prairie
Well if the object is disabled then yeah
violet sundial
it needs to be on by default then 😮 i havent screwd with animtions forawhile im running on fumes. sorry if im kinda dumb right now
muted prairie
If it's not on by default then yeah, it won't play

One question, when exporting an unity package of an avatar, how do I export only the dynamic bones setup without the entire dynamic bones asset? (Since I'd prefer others bying it from the assets store)
muted prairie
If they're setup in the prefab you made of your avatar then people need to import the db asset first and then the package iirc
valid rivet
But like, I exported a package and made a new project without the DB asset installed to test it out, and when I imported the package, there were things missing like shaders (which is supposed to happen) but the DB were working well there, like it didn't seem I needed to install the asset from the Unity Story

I require assistance-
I'm currently working on a butterfly avatar with animations that activate when doing a certain gesture, but I'm having some trouble. I know how to spawn props with gestures, but I'm not fond of activating animations with gestures. Could someone experienced DM me and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
surreal arrow
So, I'm trying to animate the avatar.
From what it looks like, it has no bones. If it does, I have no idea how to see them.
I'm trying to add gestures that makes the character hold an item, for context.

Hi, I have an existing model with animations that I've applied to it. for some reason, the animations are all halfway into the ground, and I don't seem to have the position options that people did when google searching. see:
I'm not really sure what to look for...
wheat ledge
eh- I tried a newer variant of this model and its animations seems to be correct on the plane. I'll just work with that instead 🙂

So, been trying to obtain longer animations, kinda to get some dance emotes I have to not get cut off 10 seconds or so into it.
I've been using this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DwNxirwzCw
and this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/VRchat/comments/asqgir/help_is_there_a_time_limit_on_emotes_gestures/egwmomu?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
As a tutorial on how to do so, that said... when I try: 1. Animation starts playing by default without me pressing the buttons associated with the animation and 2. If I do, sometimes part way through it the model spazzes out and is like there's two of the model there as it plays out.
If anyone can help me with this it'd be appreciated, feel free to ping me.

I dunno where else to ask a question about particle systems, so here goes
how can I make a particle switch direction midflight?
I want individual particles to make a sharp turn to a random direction
I feel like the answer is in the noise component but I don't know how to make the turns sharp instead of curvy
I'm trying velocity over lifetime but setting it to random between two curves gives it a chance of having very low velocity; I prefer the particles keep their speed when changing direction

Once again can someone help me with getting a blink animation to work? I have created the blink animation with blendshapes, set it to loop and have it connected in the animation controller on the avatar body. The blink doesn't show up in Unity unless i turn the body off and on again..
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/390924344475254792/660014552666210354/unknown.png this is how it looks like
the Blink Example has the animation attached in the slot

Do any of you know how to make an animation just to play a sound and do nothing else? When I create this animation, the sound plays but also my character enters that motorcycle pose
opaque cloud
You're supposed to make your animations on a clone of your avatar, to avoid having that happen
clear yew
But i did
The avatar is not broken in that position forever, it only enters this position when the animation is playing. When the sound stop, it goes back to normal.

Is there an easy way to mirror bone animations to the opposite side in unity?
opaque cloud
you mean like flip the entire animation? or if you have half of one animation, you want it to also affect the opposite side?
cause for flipping the entire animation it's really easy
clear yew
@opaque cloud The entire animation so it's mirrored to the arm on the opposite side
clear yew
Or wait I guess it's only half since I animated the left arm already and I just need it to do the same on the right arm
clear yew
There's a way for do fade in or fade out in animation for a model?

You mean like a dissolve?

Hey guys, I'm trying to remove the automatic blinking animation off of a model and having trouble doing so. I'm very new to unity and blender.
I've tried merging the eyebones to the head in blender
I've also tried going into the blendshapes and renaming the blink left and blink right to just blink and blink.001, I was using the cats plugin for both of these methods
After doing that, I hit fix avatar using cats, and import it back into unity, but the model either ends up looking like a blob in unity, or it looks fine in unity but becomes deformed in vrchat.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've been trying for like a whole day at this point.
nimble ridge
use cats to create the eye tracking again but use sli blendshape in all the slots for blink in cats
nimble ridge
oh wait, you can use basis too, that might be better
opal prism
Should I turn down the eye movement range?
nimble ridge
you can go in testing mode to check if it needs to be turned down or up
but a question, this is a new model rigth?
opal prism
Yeah Its from a fresh unity project from the unity package it came in
After I create the eye tracking do I need to hit fix model? Or can I just export it?
nimble ridge
oh than, i would recommend upgrading it to av3 before continuing
opal prism
What will that do?
nimble ridge
in av3 you wont have to do all the eye tracking stuff in blender, it opens up a lot of new features for the avatar, and makes things easier to setup and work with
opal prism
Okay how do i do it then?
nimble ridge
you have to download the newest sdk from the website and install it in a new project
pretty much what you did when you first installed sdk2, or when you upgrade

In one of my gestures, I have it set to stick out the tongue, it works when I preview it but ingame the mouth just twitches really fast.

Currently working on a Character that is able to switch Equipment (currently 4 Different Outfits with the possibility to show/hide head-gear).
I want to add a nice visual effect when switching gear, but I'm not familiar with Visual Effects/Particle systems :S
Maybe someone could help me with this?
I want a particle effect similar to this:
hollow sun
For those who do particles, I am currently trying to make it so that when I fire my crossbow, it will fire just one bolt and the bolt persists after the gesture ends. I tried toggling emission, but it does not work unless it is looping. How is this possible for when I just want the particle to come out just once each time I pull the trigger?
worldly gale
Sounds like you need to make the bolt a world particle instead of local
sand snow
am here lumpy my boy
opaque cloud
Ok so
All you need to do is find the Override Animator in your Unity files
It should have installed when you added the SDK to unity
sand snow
okay ill look for it
opaque cloud
I believe they put it at the very end of the "Examples" folder for some reason
To make it easy, Drag that override animator to "Assets" in the left side bar there
opaque cloud
Yes exactly
opaque cloud
The bolded assets, yes
opaque cloud
Now, let's see what kind of animations you have
opaque cloud
Oh, you have custom overrides in there already!
sand snow
:0? oh? then why is it not workin >:((
im all like VERY new to this so sorry if i seem pretty dumb
opaque cloud
Those three in the top lft corner
sand snow
ive been trying to figure all this out for the past like 3 hours 😢
opaque cloud
Click on them and show me what they look like
opaque cloud
Yeah
Looks like you selected the idle sitting one
You'll probably wanna find the idle standing one
opaque cloud
Alright, so select the object with the Avatar Descriptor attached to it, and drag that animator into the standing override slot
And do the same for the sitting one in the sitting slot
sand snow
okay ill do my best
okay i THINK this is right?!?!?!
im ngl i was like "oh jesus idk what their talking about AT all" but i think i did it
and then the lipsink do i leave it at default bc when i went into vrchat when i spoke it wasnt movin
opaque cloud
Woah no there buster
You didn't set your lipsync at all
that's why it wasn't working
sand snow
ooohh what do i set it too?
opaque cloud
Just press "auto-detect" and it should work
sand snow
okay :> i pressed auto detect and i think this is good
opaque cloud
Perfect
sand snow
can i upload it now :DDDD
opaque cloud
Now all that should need to be done is to upload it and see how it all works
sand snow
:DDDD omg thank you, you saved me such a headache dude you have no idea
opaque cloud
Just note that I've had issues with idle animations with SDK2
sand snow
i guess ill go see how it is in a min here
opaque cloud
if something looks funky on your Idle you might need to remove it
sand snow
okay ill keep it in mind
opaque cloud
not the overrides, just the idle animations in the overrides

okay!!! thank you again :DDDD

it works!!! thank you so much

So I wanna ask this in advance, I got a model which has a function of extending its arm, is it possible to make a animation where the hand bone extends away?
Like this for example
noble shell
Resize bone with a gesture/anim maybe , not really tried that so hold it down extends
clear yew
ill give it a go, last time i used a blend shape but required me to unrig the fingers in that hand.. Wouldnt resizing make the hand bigger though or am I thinking this the wrong way?
clear yew
Ah like that! I'll try it, I just know sometimes bones dont like to work well when moved 🤦♂️
clear yew
So, I did try it, but in the animation the arm keeps resetting back to its original position, is there a way to actually fix this??
tulip vale
alright so for a avatar i got a gesture including a object that i want to have rotating constantly and i dont know what to do to create this effect. help?
@fringe pulsar put an animation on the object that's going to be rotating. Go to the object, Add component --> animator, then go the animation tab and create an animation clip for it where it spins and have loop time checked.
Try sitting down, that's where I have issues with custom idles on SDK2
@opaque cloud duplicate your overide controller and remove the idle animation from the duplicate, and then put the duplicate override controller in your sitting animations slot.

I don't use SDK2 anymore, and also that's really old

when uploading an avatar how do you stop the idle animation from playing while you try and center the camera for the image?
fervent bone
so~ i wanna animate an old avatar to kinda look like it's floating O: so i want a very slight up/down bobbing, which i assume i would need to animate the hips for. the problem is, if the hips are configured correctly in the avatar configuration menu, it doesn't let you animate them :< was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how I could still achieve this effect?
muted prairie
I don't believe that's possible on the idle in 2.0
Disabling auto footstep should let you do that in 3.0 though ?
fervent bone
hm O: really? might have to look into that. was hoping i wouldn't have to update this avatar to 3.0 since this is just a test > w<

i did it for generics but i had the model inside an empty with its own animator

Apparently, i can't get sounds into Emotes. i followed all the directions on the videos i could find. Yet the sound just doesn't work.

the emotes aren't in your model ?
bleak peak
i thought they were
clear yew
Those emote gameobjects are not in your model in the screenshot you posted. They should be parented inside T-RexExport in the hierarchy.
bleak peak
ah, i see
I double checked. and i did put the emotes in those separate model hierarchies. i duplicated the original model, and added the emotes, 1 by 1.
clear yew
Only one of those hierarchies is being uploaded to VRChat. If you want something in VRChat, it needs to be under ONE hierarchy in unity (T-RexExport), or it will be completely ignored at upload.
bleak peak
Ahhh, i see
bleak peak
Emotes have been moved to the hierarchy this time...but the sounds still don't work.
subtle forum
This is a new problem for me. For some reason the animations broke. Its hard to describe it, but it looks like all of the animations are more "floaty" In this one its "floaty" and it goes down, below the floor. This never happened to the other avatars with this exact animation.

clear yew
@valid rivet I don't know how youve set it up, but I'd suggest creating a gameobject under the jaw bone in the armature, setting your particle effect outside of your armature, then putting a parent constraint on the particle system to constrain to the position and rotation of the gameobject you have parented to the jaw.

Having some issues with enabling an audio source when using a gesture. Every time I add the audio source into the animator it has to be enabled at both the start and the finish for some reason, can't have it start disabled and then become enabled.
Anyone know how one would go about fixing that.
clear yew
What are you putting the audio source on?
raven oar
I've tried having it on an object, on a part of my hand, on an audio source object
it does the same thing every time
clear yew
so the audio don't wanna play whenever entering playmode?
raven oar
oh no it plays, it's just that I can't get it to be disabled and then enable on using the gesture
like normally when you do a gesture, you'd have the object that's going to appear or begin being used disabled, and then you use the gesture to enable it, but It doesn't want to start out disabled and then enable, it either is enabled constantly or is disabled constantly
clear yew
Show me how you set it up in unity
raven oar
im trying it with mute now and its doing the same thing
So at the end of the animation I have it play the audio, which would either become unmuted or become enabled
raven oar
where is it
clear yew
Firstly, please never edit the original default animator
raven oar
Idk what you just said but alright
clear yew
Secondly, the reason why you're running into issues is because your audio source is turning on and then off right after again, that's why you have issues
So here's what to do
raven oar
oooh so i have to let it play the whole thing
clear yew
Do you know about keyframing?
raven oar
yeah
clear yew
Right, so you know whenever you make a toggle gesture it stays between 0:00 to 0:01
raven oar
mhmm
clear yew
That is what your HandOpen is doing
it starts and then cancels right after
I'd suggest duplicating the HandOpen
(ctrl + c + ctrl +d)
and then make a duplicate of your avatar
hide your avatar
(main)
create a empty gameobject
put an animator on that gameobject
then you slap the audio source on under that
and then you put the "OpenHand" animation on your duplicate avatar
let everything be toggled
then de-toggle your duplicate
and put the animation clip inside your animation override controller
raven oar
think i can just do this a lot easier with another way
raven oar
we shall see if what i just did works
if not then ill try tweaking it a bit, then do what you said if that doesnt work
appreciate the help
clear yew
You're welcome, report back if it works! 🙂
raven oar
my main issue was the fact that i'd already done an audio source thing that didn't need to do that, it was just, whenever i did peace sign it spawned the object which then had the sound effect playing
this shouldnt have been any different
aaand nope that didn't work. And for some reason it disables my walking animation, which confuses the fuck outta me.
okay, so @clear yew
create an empty gameobject.
Add the animator and the audio source to the empty game object
put the animation on my duplicate avatar, as in... in a new animation controller?
where do you put the duplicate animation into
nova heart
i encountered a problem in the middle of animating, every time i move my camera a little bit the hair of the avatar just disappears
clear yew
@raven oar yes
raven oar
okay but that doesn't really solve my issue of the animation not even being able to enable the audio source
I just want to be able to fuggin enable this damn audio source
i wanna be able to slap my friend in the face...
raven oar
why does editing a gesture animation cause my character's walking animation to go away

i believe so, but im not quite sure how people do it

to swap between these two, so it will normally just be the normal mesh and when i click one of the f buttons it will switch to the mesh with the animation and hide the mesh without it

So, I made a gesture animation for my VRChat avatar that lasts about half a second. It works fine, the keyframes are in order and everything, but the in-game animation is a little.. bugged.
It works fine in game, the animation loads in n' stuff, but when used with my other gesture animations, it kinda combines with them and screws the gestures up. I've tried changing the animation loop but nothing seems to change. Could someone please help me out here?

Just a little question I was wondering how I could create an animation with a second model appearing behind my avatar and mirroring my movements. i wanted to create a susanoo for my avatar. How would I do this?

Can anyone help with this animation? I'm trying to have the dissolve shader not repeat with the floating animation.
Also having a separate animation doesn't work either
muted prairie
what's the keyframe in the middle for ?
muted prairie
Ok, what is the issue then ? The looping ?
If you want to to not loop at the end then you need to have the dissolve go to 1 in the middle and then back to 0 ?
lament hazel
I just need the floating animation to repeat but not the effects from the shader I'm using
muted prairie
That'd require two different animations or a very very long one with the floating repeating
Unless i'm not seeing the easier solution
lament hazel
I did try 2 diffrent animations but only the Dissolve effect works in VRChat
muted prairie
Then it'd need its own animator
transition from this animation into an animation with just the floating

Does anyone have any good tutorials on how to animate with unity? Trying to create a simple 1-frame animation for my character and unity is being a bitch about it
And no tutorials with that muscle-something or other addon, i'm not paying money
I mean, as hilarious as kirby flapping around on his warp star every frame would be funny, it's not what I'm aiming for
valid rivet
There's not much to teach tbh, Unity isn't the best program to animate, it's best to do animation with an outside program like Blender, and then port the animation clip
In Unity all you can do is add keys with a lot of patience, and people use that muscle asset to make it a little easier... otherwise you won't have the best of times animating there. If it's only 1 frame then you may just do it the slow way with Unity animation

So odd question.
I've been working on an avatar for a friend and it came messed up in several ways. One thing it does is it has a seat on it which, when used, triggers an animation that shrinks you and poses you into a W position. Sounds good so far right? Well the only things the animation changes are your size, legs positioning, and arm position.
In a public model, it works just fine still. In this version, it will do one of two things:
- Desktop will be inside the object being used as a seat, unable to see. Outside, they look like someone twisted the little guy.
- VR is partially submerged in the object as they regain unwanted control over any joint not animated (Hips and above, plus arms because VR reasons.) If they have playspace mover they can even pull themselves up enough to surf on the object, full body or not. It'll actually straighten the body out.
Million dollar question: How do I fix the seat so they won't pretzel, and lock the IK for VR?
If you need more info, screenshots, or have an answer, @ me. I'm afk and could go get this info on demand.

any idea why my character has his arms out like this?
he has his arms out like this in the game as well.

So i'm trying to use mixamo
but nowadays it seems to strip the model of its armature in the hierarchy

hi folks, I purchased a premade model from CyberWERE and tinkered with the scale settings in Unity. I got the viewpoint set correctly, uploaded successfully, and it looks great in VRchat. it walks normally, knees bent and legs moving, but when it starts to walk-fast/run, the avatar lays backwards at 45 degrees, legs go completely stiff/extended, but the hips and feet move normally. any idea where to start troubleshooting that issue?

is there a way to change the animator transition curves? I have a UI, which uses an animator to go from page to page/ open and close - but the transitions between states are linear.
For instance, the animation 'on' sets the position of the canvas to move it up and change its alpha from 0 to 1
this is the transition from Off to On
i don't see any options to change it from a linear transition
i'm aware that i could manually add transition animations but i actually removed those since i realised it was smarter and more flexible to avoid doing that

my question was a world animation question, maybe you got confused by what i meant
halcyon owl
I've had proper animated automatic doors in my world forever
There are 3 variations using the same basic setup. One is still working perfect. One is only animating the doorhandles (the door panels stay still while the doorhandles "open") and the last one stopped animating completely. In Play mode, when i check the boolean for open or closed, it animates perfectly. But In-game it doesn't
I don't remember changing anything about this, could anyone suggest what might cause this kind of problem?
Reverting the prefabs does not solve the issue

Why isnt Animations working? I can see the preview down to the right and it should work, but when I press play in Unity the avatar just sits down.
stable ocean
Anyone know if you can have a particle system only show up in a mirror?
@versed blaze Is it a gesture animation you're creating? The model always goes into that pose when you hit the play button to preview shape key animations. It won't do that for the animation itself dw.
versed blaze
@stable ocean It's with every animation, idles and all that, it shouldn't be with everything since you're supposed to be able to pose the avatar for pictures etc
stable ocean
@versed blaze What I mean is if you don't have an idle animation running on that particular animation . meta, it'll be in that pose. Copy and paste your idle pose/animation key frames into that a in animation file.
Also be sure the right one is selected when you click play
Feel free to take a screenshot of your key frames on that animation play and I can let you know what's going on.

Is there any good tutorial or prefab for making an object that can be brought out via particle collisions (like instead of using a normal gesture to enable like a gun for example, you grab it off a certain part of your body to do that instead)?

A quick one, I have an avatar that spawns and places one big object that plays an animation, I changed the bounds to be a bit bigger, because it flies away, and yet it still disappears if people don't look at it from a perfect angle. What could be the problem?

How exactly do you make a subemitted particle completely follow its parent? I'm trying to use Inherit Velocity with some pretty...questionable results. This is with Current inherit mode
And this is with Initial inherit mode. Both with multipliers of 1
north pendant
Also, a weird interaction with orbital velocity over time. Seems like as soon as it gets a nonzero value, it assumes the emission shape is at the origin of the particle object, instead of the subemitter, and constrains the particles to that axis. Notice the spiraling trails (the circle they're emitted from is aligned with the cone shape sticking out there) and how they just move along the z axis of their original system. I want them to spiral behind the particle they're subemitted from. Any idea how I can go about doing this?
In case it's relevant, here's the emission, shape, and velocity over lifetime of the trail particles
Why don't we have a #particles channel? It's involved enough to demand its own channel

yeah, super clearly

but, the weird thing is it only moves along the horizontal axis of my view O:

You mean like gestures?

Open up custom overrides
and drag to the emote slot of your choosing
You also have to click on your avatar and drag the custom overrides to these 3 slots
Can you elaborate a little bit? Because what the overrides do is allow you to choose what emotes are put on your avatar, so you should just be able to put them in their designated spot on the overrides and it should work fine.

That pose happens when you start to animate on it. You should be able to just click something that is not within the characters hierarchy and it'll fix itself. So click the Camera or the Light in the Hierarchy tab.
It's been said to duplicate your avatar whenever you want to animate something on it so your main avatar doesn't get that weird pose, but from my experience doing the above and not duplicating works too, nothing gets broken.

Does anyone have advice for using muscle animation editor to create animations with a lot of root movement and rotation (Or a recommendation for a better tool?) I can see that it translates your desired root movement/rotation into muscle movements automatically, but the end result is that it loves to take the shortest route to the desired rotation and convert negative rotations to positive, etc. As far as I can tell I can't really switch between euler angle/quaternion interpretation. So if I want to animate a 360 degree spin, it just automatically converts that to 0 and does nothing. If you try to do e.g. 359 instead, it'll just treat that as -1 and barely rotate in the opposite direction. You can sort of force it to behave by creating keyframes partway through the rotation here and there but it's hard to fine tune things and it feels like you're constantly fighting against it trying to do the opposite of you want. There has to be a better way than this, right?
The answer might be to just animate stuff like that in blender (which I barely have experience with), rather than trying to force unity to do it. I'd rather learn how to do that than fight with this every step of the way

This is my toggle animation i suppose put it in emote 1, it works in game but my avatar have a weird pose on the ground and if i move, the animation would stop and close . I wanna know how to set the pose normal when I open my emote and my avatar move the animation stop .
When I open emote my avatar would be this pose

oh, so like the controllers fire early when you leave the animation early?

Yes this is 1 issue i met it , and the pose i don't how to fix that

all i can say is that thos default animations will always fire early or wonky, but for the pose, im not sure would be telling it to default to that
noble latch
Got you, but it's weird if the pose always keep that
If someone know how to fix pose and move would stop emote toggle plz tell me

you may need to use transforms in the animation, since thats like the “relaxed” pos that itll default to

Okay I would try now

excuse me, every time I put a particle on a part of the avatar, such as my hand, it works normally in play mode as I thought. However, it will always appear at the waist close to the thigh after entering the game. I have tried several objects that contain particle, and this problem occurs. Even if I adjust the position later, it will not appear in the position I expected after entering the game.

How would I animate multiple avatars with a single animation?
I see animations where the avatar will spawn in a second or third avatar and they will all start dancing together. I want to figure out how to do something like that.
Any suggestions?
haughty maple
Quick and dirty method I've used before:
- Duplicate the model and parent the duplicate(s) inside of the main avatar prefab.
- Drag the animation onto the duplicate avatar; this should create a new animation controller.
- Ensure the animation controller is set inside of an Animator component on the duplicate and make sure it's set to automatically play.
- Disable the duplicate(s).
- Edit the animation for the main avatar and add a property to enable the duplicate models.
When you play the animation, it should enable the duplicate(s) and they should automatically begin the animation.
...I hope I did that right. It's late and my brain isn't really working right now
iron glade
Thanks, i'll see if it works

Sorry to bother I just need to know the order

You'll want to run it through CATS to generate the full list of visemes as you only have
ah = あ, ih = い, ou = う, E = え, oh = お
sounds but cats can generate them using
AA = あ、OH = お、CH = い

since this looks like sdk2 make sure you set eye tracking and blinking too as it takes the first 4 blendshapes in the list for that iirc

fleet tinsel

heady talon
@rose blaze dont trust what cats tells you when it comes to hiragana
better to just translate
ex this is the left and right blinks for my avatar even tho they dont translate to blinking at all
and strangely enough, CATS will change what the translation is to something random every time you change the blendshape
AA Oh and something that looks like AH but with a dash
what cats translates to
CH used to translate to CH but got randomly changed to a new translation
い doesnt translate to CH shape for some reason if not translated in CATS and you just use japanese instead
what my blinks look like if using the wink left/right translation that I know to be 100% true
either something is up with CATs not liking Japanese or the MMD naming structure messes up cats when not translated
which is a shame because it means you need to translate animations that use facial animations rather than just setting the model up with Japanese blendshapes and skipping all that hassle
patent quail
something has to be really wrong if your blender/cats is rearranging your shape keys like that. my instructions for the jp blend shapes are for their equivalents in english, and unless you have those issues, those are the correct equivalents. I don't rely on translating them, and havent seen this after putting through well over a 100 models through cats.
heady talon
thats weird. Happens on both blender 2.79 and 2.80. CATs works fine if you just translate it and use the translations but it messes up shape keys if you dont translate and instead opt to use Japanese
patent quail
I can read Japanese so i've never had to translate them, and have never seen this happen ¯\(ツ)/¯
heady talon
it sucks even more if you can read it because the wording that you know to be true just does not work for some reason
its like cats just jumbles up the shape keys but keeps the names
I think it might be a python issue since a complete reinstall of blender or cats doesnt fix it messing up shape keys

Is it possible to make the whole avatar do a pose when you use a certain emote? Like the whole body. I want to make an emote for cactuar doing his iconic pose but it isnt working for me. I made the animation in blender and brought it in as both a generic and humanoid model animation, but neither work. Help would be appreciated!
verbal ether
@graceful badger if you mean an emote,. then yes just apply it as your override in the emote slot and it should work. If you mean as a gesture, you'll want to create a second "avatar" and have the animation on it. As seen in the attached image, the red is the actual avatar as normal, but the blue is an empty object that contains a copy of the avatar, with the black/highlighted body(1) having the animation on it.
You can then have the gesture itself just disable the mesh of the actual avatar, and enable the empty object

Watch literally any end to end avatar uploading tutorial, then come back when you have specific questions. "Pleaseeeeee help:" is not a question we can help you with.
You have a lot of things going on here, none of which have to do with animation, and most of which can be answered succinctly by a tutorial. Hence my answer
ionic sable
I’ve watched countless tutorials
I can’t get the model to bind with its bones
Also greyed out textures cannot be deleted

That’s why I said “plEeeaeeeSe hElp” because I’ve been up all day and night trying to get this model up watching every tutorial and to no avail. I just want to get this done already
north pendant
I've heard this story before. "I've watched countless tutorials" directly translates to "I barely skimmed through 2 videos and got frustrated so I spent 5 hours staring angrily at Unity"
north pendant
Model making is a steep learning curve and a process. You're going to have to pay more attention to at least one tutorial, you haven't even scratched the surface of what one of them can cover
I am helping you. I'm not gonna sit here for 3 hours telling you what several less than 20 minute videos are already designed to do. I'm giving you the means to gauge your efforts and direct your path to model making

https://gyazo.com/e253962a6ae57a330b47f72563414647 So I need some help, I need this avatar to be bent over as shown in the picture, but the only way I can get it to stay bent over is if I put the animation time to generic, but then he doesnt have any animations and the view point is behind his head in game. Any advice or help? (Not really sure this is an animation issue but might as well ask)
mint sun
@blazing bluff where you have that problem in blender or unity?
like you see on unity everything is fine but in vrchat not?
blazing bluff
In vrchat. So in unity hes hunched over, but if i bring him in to vrc with a humanoid animation type, he tries to stand up and thats not what the avatar is supposed to do. But if i put him on generic theres no animations(which ill figure out how to fix after) but the camera is behind the head @mint sun
blazing bluff
Yea so hes in vrc like in that picture, but the viewpoint is behind his head
mint sun
mhm
blazing bluff
Ill try to get pictures in a moment, im currently away from my pc cooking
blazing bluff
For the avatar descriptor view point?
mint sun
you need to try something to do with camera
blazing bluff
Alright let me take a look now that im back at my pc
mint sun
k
blazing bluff
And once I fix the view point problem, how would I go about giving him animations to walk crouch etc? Just copy them from the normal humanoid animation set?
blazing bluff
Alright
https://gyazo.com/9a935f9a11c5ef8c6761ff68abc02155
https://gyazo.com/80a89b678724bf8767c51730cf87a2fe
So I moved the viewpoint forward and went into game after uploading it and the first picture was how my viewpoint was and still is. I tried changing the root node to be the chest, that didnt work (it is currently the hips)
mint sun
so your camera is behind him?
blazing bluff
Yes
mint sun
and when you adjust it it does nothing
blazing bluff
That little grey dot in the second picture gets shoved behind the head. And yea, the dot was originally between the eyes, and then I sent it out infront of the head to see if that would work and it still didnt fix it
mint sun
its like camera isn't connected to avatar so unity creates replacement behind him
blazing bluff
Yea, is it because the animation set is on generic? Or is it something else? Cause I pre-posed him in blender if that makes a difference at all.
mint sun
hmm its weird tho i have no idea in your place i would try something with camera or move avatar behind
i never had that issue
blazing bluff
Alright, ill move the avatar backwards a bit then.
sterile sentinel
@blazing bluff I'd recommend keeping the avatar in a T-Pose in blender and exporting that way, and then hunching him with custom animations in Unity
mint sun
it is weird that camera wont adjust
sterile sentinel
I don't know if the IK will work with generic animations though? o:
that said, just uploading it as a humanoid rig without the hunch, then setting your in-game height to be lower will hunch the avatar very similarly to that
camera issue might be related to generic rig, potentially?
blazing bluff
Maybe. I just figured it would be easier to pre-hunch the avatar cause thats what the original character does, its constantly hunched over
But ill rebuild it in blender and the try making him hunched over in unity instead.
mint sun
try do it normaly tho t pose and animation for standing etc
sterile sentinel
I'd recommend uploading it in a T pose, setting it to a humanoid rig in Unity without the hunch whatosever, and then just changing your in-game height o:
or alternatively just crouching irl, which will also hunch the character very similarly to how you have it set up above
blazing bluff
Alright, ill let the person know that im making this for. Cause they havent told me if they play in vr or just pc.
sterile sentinel
On Desktop you could likely just crouch (with C) and it'll do the same thing lol
blazing bluff
Yea but you move a lot slower haha
sterile sentinel
fair lmao
mint sun
but why position would be a problem t pose or not camera should be working wherever u move it
blazing bluff
Yea, thats why I came here cause ive never had that issue before either.
sterile sentinel
Off the top of my head I'd blame the generic rig?
also, def make sure that there aren't any other avatar descriptors in the hierarchy, too
blazing bluff
Yea, ill make sure when I bring in the rebuilt version
blazing bluff
How would I go about making an animation to put my avatar into a crouched state constantly but to where the player can still move around freely?
sterile sentinel
I don't think you can? o:
lowering your in-game height or crouching irl/in desktop would likely work though
blazing bluff
Alright

@north pendant thanks for the response ! I ended up finally applying a mask last night and that solved it! However now I gotta figure out unity’s interruptions system so I can have the gunshot sound effect play every time I pull the trigger and cutoff the previous sound
north pendant
Doesn't have to be an animation interruption. You can just disable the previous audio and enable your gun audio on the gunshot animation state
split flower
How would you do that? I have the animation for my gun setup so that if the revolvers are active and if gestureright = 1 then it will transition to the gunshot sound , however when transitioning from the sound back to a default state , i have my (if gestureright not equal 1) I have a exit time of 1 because I want it to play the whole sound even if I let go of the trigger it will play the entire sound
north pendant
You just...don't turn off the sound you want to keep playing. I usually just disable and enable the audio source object on single activation events like that for that effect, then I don't touch it in any of the other animation states
split flower
It’s a single gunshot though, from a revolver , it’s not a constant firing sound
north pendant
single activation events
Kinda what I meant my guy
