Moreover you have tools like Cats plugin to setup MMD models for unity, and then import them into VRchat

So how should I get started? Like if I want for example, make a kawaii avatar from scratch for vrc
Yeah but that's toying with complete avatars on unity, right? shouldn't I get started on blender if that's the program to make models? :0
charred moat
I would suggest first to start by the easier. Use already made cool model, import them on unity and then in VRchat. You can modify them a bit.
Then when you imported 2 or 3 models already done to vrchat and know how to use unity, try to download Blender 2.79 and look for Blender cat plugin https://vrcat.club/threads/cats-blender-plugin-0-6-1.6/
outer halo
I'll check it out, thanks a lot :3
charred moat
You can download an mmd model, and import it to blender. Then you can do .pmx/.ascii/.obj/.blend -> Blender -> Unity -> Vrchat
outer halo
Oh oh uhm, how do I recolor uhm for example a tail to change colors constantly?
charred moat
You have to create a custom animation. You press "record" enter the tail mesh, and every like 5 seconde you change the color by dropping a new material to the model
It have to be done in unity
That's the same idea than the tutorial to make the eyes blink forever
charred moat
Not that hard really. basically you do the same than here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrfx3v45OJU
But instead of touching the eyes, you touch the tail.
Try to change the color by dropping a new texture to the tail, or by applying a shader to the tail material first. Than you ask the animator to do it every X seconds
you can progress by taking a model on the website I gave to you and make it blink at first time. So you'll be used to the animations with unity. And next custom it with the tail

if I have 3D modeling skills, would I be condemned if I made a model after these set of particular costumes https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/197723204259807232/411139816164687872/13150916_1921539834739792_896118287_n.png

eternal crow
http://prntscr.com/ic2uq2 Does the weapon he's holding look hard to make? Because i wanna make it so that he has it for vrchat
eternal crow
yes but i would recommend putting the view ball into the head at least, not on the outside, its just my preference so you can do it however you like to
eternal crow
yeah
spiral sigil
okay thank you

no problem
frigid robin
can anyone tell me how to reuv something
I'm modifying a zelda map and some of the textures are stretching and not tiling right
I am using blender
long zealot
When you press u in edit mode you can remap your uvs. If you open up a new panel and set it to uv/image editor you can move the vertices to match your texture.
frigid robin
Is there anyway to do it automatically with reasonable accuracy
I'm an idiot when it comes to 3d modeling
long zealot
Well no, but if you mark your seams for unwrapping it turns out better. In edit mode on the left side go to the uv and shading tab, use edge select and choose what edges you want and click the mark seam button. When you unwrap it again it may look better.
long zealot
Uh I would just mark hard edges like the edges of the cliff
frigid robin
The walls are a seperate mesh, so is the road, should I still just make the hard edges?
long zealot
Yeah
frigid robin
So the hard edges are implying the cliffs that go off into the void
long zealot
They will be fine without marking seams
frigid robin
I have no idea what I'm doing and so far messing around with it hasn't yielded any results close to what I had in my mind
maybe I'll just leave it alone instead of trying to mess with it
deft kite
I dont know what happened but in blender the top menu bar with Save Open Export etc is gone and replaced with another bar, how do i get that back?
Nevermind i found it
long zealot
Reddoh if your doing kokiri Forrest then it's already been property unwrapped on the models resource, all you have to do for that is make sure the right materials are assigned

@tender panther yeah... emotes
none of my other avatars with emotes flicker, though
albeit they're not as complex

So how would I go about acquiring a model from a game I own for the sake of making art
_>
Because currently I can't get this thing to work
dusky glacier
what game is it and what format are the files in?
dry notch
I'm considering taking some league files
Not the updated V2 whatever the hell cause those are impossible to open
dusky glacier
just had to make sure but i can't help you on that here due to the rule:
13. No discussion of piracy / game ripping or links to get such content. This extends to directing people how to get a model of a character from a game.
dry notch
Oh fuck you
Who made that and why
There is no law stating you may not take models from a game. The use of them to make money is the illegal part.
Yep. I'll talk to someone about it later.
But. Yeah.
frigid robin
So im importing a model from 3ds
they abuse texture mirroring
I cant get that to work in blender
tender panther
You can probally find a model online.
frigid robin
I extracted it from the game
tender panther
3ds models are quite popular.
frigid robin
because it didnt exist online
tender panther
What are you trying to get?
frigid robin
I already have the model I'm just trying to fix the textures
I have a link costume from Triforce Heroes
shit looks like this https://puu.sh/zjN0o/cfcbdc97ef.png
atm
I dont know if there is some script that fixes this or something
tender panther
Looks like your textures need to be fixed.
frigid robin
Obviously
frigid robin
you dont need your textures in mixamo
dry notch
but I need the textures on the model in unity but the model is an obj in blender
and the textures are stuck in a .mtl
frigid robin
export it as fbx
upload fbx to mixamo
rig
download rigged fbx
import to unity
assign textures
dry notch
Wait, if I export as fbx. Will I be able to take the textures from that folder I export to and apply them to the FBX from mixamo?
frigid robin
yes
spice gale
hey guys is this the right place to ask how to show a texture on the inside of a unity 3d object?
dry notch
There are no textures when I export as fbx
frigid robin
you have to assign them in unity
dry notch
I'm gonna throw a fucking brick through my window I swear to god this is not okay
frigid robin
it saves the materials
then you import the fbx into unity
and assign them
done
when you import the fbx
it'll look like this
dry notch
I
frigid robin
grey model
frigid robin
how do you not have the files
spice gale
Does anyone know how to put a texture on the inside of a 3d object?
frigid robin
if youre seeing them in blender
frigid robin
flip the normals
dry notch
Oh hey I can't share my screenshot because why the fuck would we have the ability to share images
frigid robin
it has to be an emd
dry notch
In a medium
spice gale
wheres the normals at?
frigid robin
in blender
dry notch
DESIGNED AROUND IMAGES
dry notch
Christ I hate when discords arbitrarily ban shit
spice gale
can I export the cylinder I made in unity?
dry notch
Why can't I share my screenshot agian?
spice gale
awesome. blender hates me but I'll try some time
dry notch
There are zero textures for said model
Normally when I export an FBX I have a folder of textures
frigid robin
what soraka model is it
spice gale
oh this is awesome, in unity I just turned it into a "flare" and now I can see from the inside and out, plus the background is transparent and only shows the matrix text. hopefully this works in vrchat its freaking badass
dry notch
I would LIKE to have my textures reeeee
spice gale
woah this is better than flipping the normals
dry notch
Nope why the fuck would it be
spice gale
I made the matrix rain surround me in cylinder shape and its just the words from the image I use
frigid robin
@dry notch weapon gone too im assuming
dry notch
I removed it yes
OH
So the file that was in there
Ahhhhh that makes... a little bit of sense.
@frigid robin I figured it out
Finally after much confusion
frigid robin
@dry notch impot the fbx into unity
apply this
to albedo on the material
and there you go
dry notch
My problem was a connection issue
digital viper
anyone know why my avatar is flickering? i have custom emotes, which seems to be the problem i guess?

Does anyone know of good tutorials to make your own avatars from scratch, but using 3ds Max (not Blender)? ❤

@dry notch i think you can open the UV editor when you open the MTL file in blender, then save the textures as PNG or other file format from the UV editor.

Oh man, that texture...
Can avatars have multiple texture files?
I imagine it's wiser to not do that.
spiral sigil
Avatars can have multiple materials, one for certain areas/faces, which each can have it's own texture but it would be more performance-effecient to have as few materials/textures as possible
latent charm
It's not that much of an issue having multiple textures as it is having multiple materials.
As far as I know, multiple materials cause the CPU to have to perform more draw calls which affects performance, whereas having multiple textures on one material doesn't really do this, or not to the same extent.
spiral sigil
The part about multiple materials costing higher CPU usage I agree with. The part about multiple textures to one material I'm not familiar with
slim summit
thats what ive heard too gal
honestly vrchat shouldnt be limiting polygons so much so as they should be limiting materials
latent charm
I personally agree.
And this is coming from someone who has 3-4 materials on their avatar. (I need them, I have at least 3 different shaders)
dense kelp
At one point we'll be limiting bones and textures i bet...
slim summit
I limit my materials down to 4-5
and I know its too much
but godhelp me I love custom shaders
dense kelp
That really isn't much at all .-.
slim summit
compared to most people no its not
but for optomization of my old ass computer it is
running a amd phenom chip thats 7 years old
quad core!
latent charm
If you have more than one material that uses the same shader you're doing something wrong, and if you made your own avatar you need to make some adjustments to your workflow.
spiral sigil
Agreed on the first part, they can be improved further
dense kelp
Guess i'm a horrible avatar "developer" myself then
latent charm
Currently horrible, as long as you're willing to try stuff and learn it's all good. :D
Also /s on the currently horrible. :B
dense kelp
I will once i see the actual effects of such, which i am constantly testing
How i miss multiple instances... i could test performance impacts so much more easily...
latent charm
Yeah, if you're in the developing and testing stage, having an unoptimized avatar is okay. Once it's mostly finalized and in regular use then you can worry about performance.
Most of my bitching about using a lot of materials are at avatars that have 20+ materials that all use a flat/toon shader because it's a lazy MMD impoty.
dense kelp
It's more in the case of figuring out what actually causes lag, not inherently developing the avatar to not do such
Multiple meshes so far are the top tier laggers
latent charm
Oh yeah, they're bad.
slim summit
I have some really bad avatars like that that Ive made in the past I should really revisit now that I think about it
dense kelp
Second tier goes for MASSIVE ammounts of dynamic bone scripts or particle systems (20-30+)
slim summit
I just dont use em anymore
latent charm
Useful tip for joining meshes in blender: Make sure the UV channels are all named the same, otherwise they kinda implode when joined.
dense kelp
Third tier goes for materials with shaders with too many damn drawcalls
spiral sigil
Had been curious, will non-human bones be ignored for custom walk animations?
spiral sigil
Oooh, this bird!
slim summit
the rigging is what I made from scratch
we will see if this will work
fingers crossed
dense kelp
Fourth tier goes to midrange dynamic bone-scripts/particle systems (10-20)
spiral sigil
I used a black and white version of it while playing for my first time 2 days ago
dense kelp
Fifth tier goes to too many materials with minimal drawcalls
spiral sigil
Wish the wings could move
dense kelp
Sixth goes to effectively everything else
spiral sigil
Gigantic textures, perhaps
dense kelp
Last tier being polygons, because we know how much those impact performance
latent charm
I like to think my avatars are pretty performant.
Also unity has a frame debug mode where you can step through the whole process for rendering a frame and examine it in detail.
Anyway, lunch break is over. Have to go and be nice to the public now. Have fun my dudes.
spiral sigil
Take care Gallium
dense kelp
Honestly i'm testing these things out to effectively see if people are overoptimizing (yes that is a thing and causes limitations to the user in regards to customization)
Based on the fact that my sole interest in vrc to begin with was customization, you can see why that's worrysome for me
slim summit
and my computer bsod me :/
dense kelp
I know the feel
dense kelp
It does need all of the humanoid bones to work sadly
slim summit
adding upperarms shouldnt be hard 😄
dense kelp
Aye
Just make sure to select all your bones in edit mode and press alt+r
That'll reset their roll to 0 if it wasn't before
spiral sigil
Would that rotate their orientation as well or is it similar to pressing Ctrl+A and "setting" the rotation/transformation/scale of an object?
dense kelp
Am i a bit too vocal about my opinion regarding optimization?
I feel like i legit got a few people hating me now based on what i do
spiral sigil
Which leaves the object the same but sets those to 0
dense kelp
It will only set their roll value to 0, the bones won't move from their locations
Even though i legitimately caused nobody harm, and tests have shown that it honestly seems like people are overreacting about it
spiral sigil
Am not as familiar with how you vocalize it but feel optimization is an important aspect to have players consider
dense kelp
Unless you have a room with 60+ players... impacts are near negligible, the sole existence of said avatars could cause said lag, even if they were as simple as textureless cubes
spiral sigil
Would the same be said for people who play on potato computers?
dense kelp
Pretty much
I do have a friend with said potato computer
When multiple instances were a thing i had 12 clients open in one room
All of them with 30+ materials
They didn't lag
They also had dynamic bones but they weren't moving so i can't account for that
I don't base my judgements on a fight or flight basis, i test things out first, and if they work fine, then so honestly be it
spiral sigil
Guess it is important to understand the main cause of performance dropping
dense kelp
No sense in overlimiting oneself if it just causes harm to the user and little to not benefit to those seeing it, that's my honest opinion
I was also going to test the effects of dynamic bones but as stated before, multiple instances are kinda dead so... yeah....
spiral sigil
The only aspect to still suggest obtimazation would be removing materials that utilize the same texture if they're fully the same
dense kelp
I did manage to test atleast 3 overpacked dynamic bone avatars
Before instances died
10 skirt root scripts with 5 sub-bones each, 5-7 hair root scripts with 3-7 sub-bones each
spiral sigil
Transfering a lot of repeated data is likely to have an affect on the servers storage and internet, along with on people with slower internet speed
dense kelp
All VMD animated, hence constantly moving, also with 5-7 colliders
spiral sigil
Does sound like a lot
Am headed to bed at the moment but will read once I return so feel free to continue please
dense kelp
Either go big or go home for these sorts of tests haha
spiral sigil
As long as the computer can handle it, yeah
dense kelp
Tested all 3 of them on the resident evil map
All in the same location with a 1 second dropoff from one another
There were about 9-12 people in said room at the time
Also keep in mind these also maintained the 30+ materials
So it's a test on both fronts effectively
Nobody complained about them, except one that got too close and nearly blew their eardrums out due to the minrange at the time
slim summit
dense kelp
Cute
slim summit
I may have scuffed my weightpainting
dense kelp
But in general tests show that either people are overoptimizing for no real reason aside it's good to do it or my avatars are magical and bypass the term lag entirely
Or so that's what my tests concluded so far
dense kelp
I'd also like to hear people's opinion on the matter, lolita, keo, a penny for your thoughts?
spiral sigil
The major lag I have atm ingame is just mirrors and nothing else. I can't look at them for more than a few hours, otherwise my pc would just rip. But avatars, I have no issues with them for whatever reason. So I need no complains to them.
🤔
Vrchat takes up a lot of my cpu than my other games. Not too sure why.
spiral sigil
jfc
dense kelp
Mhm
And since it's not open source and free to modify, even if vrc wanted they couldn't increase such
So it ends up taking almost as much if not more memory than TERA running at max graphics haha
spiral sigil
hdsfsdkjfhkdshf
godamnit
ive tested the game TERA too, no lag for that game
jfc vrchat
dense kelp
Atleast the avatar developing is extremely simplified for the users
I doubt most if any other engines could have the same said about them, especially on a customization aspect
So it's got that going for it atleast
spiral sigil
mhm
slim summit
Idk man I like optomizing cause its my gateway to creating avatars from scratch, influence the community to learn more
But really Im only here for the memes
not the materials
dense kelp
I mainly joined vrc based on the customization it allowed alone, so any roadblocks for such are extremely detrimental, for me atleast, that's why i ask questions about it and test it
That and because i'm extremely skeptical and normally don't believe in word of mouth without proof
slim summit
thing is tho, I would like to see whitelisting to occur where content creations have less imposed restrictions
because if they are creating something amazing it sure as hell would be limited by the restrictions
dense kelp
I'm all up for changes, but i'd really apreciate some information about why said changes happen per example
slim summit
say a person wants to script something in their world or avatar, with whitelisting that person now can create intricate worlds or avatars
fewer restriction in that sense
dense kelp
The whole audio sources thing again - why are they being limited to such an extent?
I'd be fine provided they functioned as intended and allowed users some leeway, but it's just more restrictions
slim summit
and have the user show a profolio of work they have done
the more experience the person the more likely the impose restrictions will limit themfrom creating something amazing
I dont know tho
dense kelp
That is quite true... restrictions limit creativity
slim summit
but im not here for my thoughts on the community. im here for the memes
dense kelp
Which is why i get so annoyed at these changes, that and because i've helped people with issues regarding such, that will inevitably have it broken again
But i'll stop here before i trigger rule 20 on me
slim summit
I have a feeling youve been in the community a lot longer than I have
dense kelp
4months+ give or take
slim summit
Ive only been here for <2ish
dense kelp
Not too long
slim summit

by selecting vertizes and then pressing Shift+S you can also set the 3D-cursor on that point with 'cursor to selected and then do the set origin for more precise anchor point for the object

I ve got this girl
And what I wonder is how to tackle the cape
its the only available art of her so I will need to make a scetch in a T-pose
And when I do that, Obviously I would need to deform the cape accordingly
and it would increase the difficulty much more imo

you will need about 6 days to learn what to do

@slim summit In my understanding zbrush is better for organic modeling, while blender is better for making structures generally.

yea, all ive created so far is structures in blender, I guess ill give zbrush a go

Good luck

sculpting tools in blender also pretty strong.

I'm having this weird issua where a model I downloaded is missing the texture on 1 of its polygons.
I'm trying to upload a screenshot but for whatever reason I can't drag&drop it to the chat
the issue is not caused by the blendshapes. It's also not the cubes unity shader since I disabled that. The issue is not the texture either

Alright so, SOMEHOW, I got blender to sort of work, at least work well enough that it isn't a white screen and taking 30sec to do everything.
I need to conjoin "Default" and "Bone" Into 1 Object. Not place them as seperate objects under 1 group. Mixamo won't take that.
Doing Ctrl + J just places them under one object but doesn't actually merge them into 1 object.
http://puu.sh/zl863/a923948e97.PNG
fervent basalt
@dusky glacier Default and Bone are both materials
I think CATS can merge them for you
dusky glacier
@fervent basalt Yeah I see the option to join meshes but it's greyed out even when everything is selected
fervent basalt
the "one material texture" option is greyed?
dusky glacier
@fervent basalt i made a mistake on the previous picture and had shown the wrong thing :p
http://puu.sh/zl95m/c3fa444b6d.PNG
It's 2 objects, not 2 textures
and its an fbx file
if that makes a difference
fervent basalt
@dusky glacier i think "Join Mesh" only works if you have an armature in the file as well

@quartz thunder I’m assuming it looks normal before you bend it? So I’d guess your verts aren’t merged. Can probably fix it by selecting the mesh and using “remove doubles”
quartz thunder
:x havent tried that one yet. Thanks for the Idea!
high jetty
As long as the points are close enough they should merge. If not there is a slider on the left that shows up after using remove doubles that you can turn up the space it will merge from
I’d suggest increasing very slowly
If you see large parts of the model disappearing you went too far

Look at your own feet think how it would look with polygons, what are the major shapes

Haven’t actually done a foot with toes now that I think about it. Imagine it would work a lot like making hands though

having trouble joining my meshes with cats
candid veldt
I am also having trouble joining my Meshes in Cats.
I join the meshes, I also try using CTRL+J and deleting double vertices, but when I import to Unity, it still shows 2 Meshes
and I can't get the mouth visemes to work because of it
dusky glacier
Yep that's my problem too. Someone said yesterday it's because the model doesn't have an armature.
Except my model doesn't have a mouth, among other things
high jetty
The only reason I know for unity to split a model into multiple meshes is if it is above 64k (about) poly count
candid veldt
I don't think that is my issue either u.u I am trying to figure it out though
Yeah mine is at 18k for sure, this is the decimated version I am importing
No mistake there

And your sure the decimation is applied?

has anyone edited a model ?
I am trying to make a obj file with the texters
dusky glacier
Could you be a little more specific? What about editing a model and its textures?
Btw your discord avatar looks like my cousin
dim spoke
yes OBJ files don't include textures, making characters appear gray. To show textures for an .obj file, put the .obj, .mtl and textures into a .zip and upload the whole .zip file. my textures are not coming up and I have them in the zip file
https://www.mixamo.com/#/?page=1&type=Character I am putting it in this rig pose website 😃
dusky glacier
yeah mixamo is like that. Just upload the obj file into mixamo , let it rig the model, and then use that newly created fbx in unity and apply the textures afterward manually.
dusky glacier
there might be an easier way, but thats what I always do.
dim spoke
when you are in unity you just put the textures on ?
dusky glacier
yeah, i create a new material, and apply one of the textures I have to that material and just apply it in the place where it;s suppose to be

@halcyon badge decimation shouldn't mess up UV's unless they are really squished. You could check out the textures/uv's that are getting messed up and maybe there's an easy manual fix, or you should just split apart the hair and decimate the rest of the model

@forest comet if you're still having problems with the white lines around the iris, that's blender's draw order acting up -- don't worry about it too much there, unity has much better settings to handle multiple overlapping alpha layers

I just don't understand why it dissapeared
like
I hid some of the mesh to try to weight paint under it in the beginning of the project
didn't work
so I just kept weight painting
then later on I unhid the mesh
so I could see the effects on posing it
then all of a sudden it just dissapeared

You sure its not something like shapekeys acting up on you moving the mesh away from your model?

blissful sleet
you could use a seam across each of those sharp edges, will get better results
select -> sharp edges and then ctrl-e -> mark seam and then unwrap again
but there's probably much more you should learn
this is an easy model to unwrap but in general uv unwrapping is an art

marking the sharp edges as seams seems to have done a good enough job for what I wanted. thankyou very much 😃

are you using a refrence image?
Id break your blender into 3 parts so you have a view point of the top one side and the other side
then with wireframe mode extrude outwards with a refrence image onto using those three parts

@spiral sigil you could enable this addon to spawn a Dodecahedron and then match duplicates of your object to the meshe's faces and then merge them.

You would need to create one yourself or find one. Just use a photo editing program and copy & paste the images side by side with a gap between them
