I think you can just use any cubemap, not sure if you can use a material
#3d-modeling
zinc furnace
You can construct cubemaps out of 6 other textures if need be
But a panorama or store asset might be easier
halcyon citrus
Well the materials have the option for a 6 sided for skyboxes to use
Usually not bad if it's seamless pretty much like a starry night.
But other than that light settings is where you should be able to change the skybox.

@foggy compass it may be that the Texture mapping needs to be applied to the mesh, and you need to check your normals, they seem to be inside out
Sometimes the texture placement does not carry over correct because of 1 or 2 vertices not having the material applied to it correct, you just have to double check everything..

Idk how to do eye tracking, mouth lip sync, corrective shape keys for rigging
I WOULDN'T AT ALL MIND HELP on any one of those
My main gripe is not knowing how to use Generic avatars
I want to make a non-VR avatar that has custom animations, but don't know how
I'm a 2D animator that recently hit my decade mark, so the information should transition okay into 3D? I'm not sure
but yeah feel free to throw me any tips
unique galleon
I haven't yet tried eye tracking because everyone says it's super hard
And whenever I hear that from people it kills my motivation before I try, though usually when I try it turns our to be easy
The lip sync stuff I taught myself a couple weeks ago to make a model for my friends, so yeah I know that
And what exactly does corrective shape keys entail?
foggy compass
yea eye tracking seems like it'd be kinda irritating
This avatar is chubby, so the bending needs to not screw up the av so much
he's a little plump boy
so I was gonna use corrective shape keys
so when it bends it morphs the faces I want to get the proper bending look
Mannn VRchat has gotten me into 3D modeling, something I've putten off for so long

topaz frigate
Aye, states with animators are the closest you'll get to scripting atm
zinc furnace
Yeah, animators are already state machines on their own
People asking for state machines on avatars need to look no further than custom animators
You can get pretty far with Animators in worlds right now too
topaz frigate
ye boi
foggy compass
so you've got to be in world for your avatar to be animated?
with like in-world custom animators?
im conofused
humble fern
well you could do custom animators on a station inside a world, but that's hardly a viable solution. We cannot currently use custom animators on avatars, Rokk was talking about suggesting to the VRC team to allow it. However, when you're working on a world, your options open up immensely. For one, you have access to VRC_Triggers, which have basic functionality like "if playerlocal collides with this object, turn this light on" and stuff like that. You can then use those triggers to change parameters in an animator in order to do flow control and all the other features of an animator
zinc furnace
Yeah, worlds have a lot of possibilities using animators
Triggers have a lot of control over parameters too
Animators are basically state machines already
Couple them with triggers and you can rig up some interesting stuff
humble fern
still don't have float math ;-;
foggy compass
Oh that's really cool!
I'm designing an obstacle course currently that I'm going to invite random groups of players to compete in. It's mostly just for wacks and giggles, but this is definitely really useful
Making random assets in Blender haha, but I don't know if it's gonna cost too much. I'm trying to be really bare-bones with the world so it doesn't take too long to load
I'm thinking it might just be better to split the world up into segments, and chain them manually through dropped portals?
Getting the triggers to work so they teleport players to different locations, I know that's in the event handler

Hi. Looking for some initial advice/tips on adjusting the proportions of a model. I've recently got a rough version of the following avatar working in game, but the base model the original author used is rather tall and slim compared to the character from the source material.
https://i.imgur.com/CY6sTO2.png?1
Which I hope to get closer to the actual character design...
https://i.imgur.com/9FHHL0V.jpg
I figure that I probably want to shorten the waist and legs a bit. Maybe bulk out the thickness of the metal arms a little. Basically get it closer to the source.
But don't want to screw it up making any common beginner mistakes.

Is there a way to delete all unused/empty shape keys in Blender, much like how you can do the same with materials?

It should work, yes. You can also separate by loose parts

foggy maple
Yes, I did. It's really awesome, I didn't think that this was possible

I was developing something similar but got stuck with imagemagick
I knew it was possible because you can do the same process manually
Just tile the textures and move the UV's accordingly
spiral sigil
wonder if it's a good idea to merge it with CATS
zinc furnace
I would support that
Because so many people have Cats already
But you need to actually go out and find that particular addon
I also think someone needs to make a successor to Tupper's MMD to VRChat megatutorial
Since Cats has changed so much and we have better auto atlasing addons now

I have already uploaded a dev version with it integrated :) but you still need to install the plugin manually

Cats Blender Tool has an Armature Merge function that can do this.
zinc furnace
Yes, but the bones have to be named the same. Cats Blender Tool should be able to do this too.
Just hit Fix Model on both models
floral moat
ugh, why isnt there an easy way to merge uv maps
zinc furnace
Because there is no intuitive way to do that if you think about it
You have to make sure the UV maps are named the same when you merge the meshes
The concept of merging UV maps themselves makes no sense, unless the UV maps have literally zero overlap
Not sure if a polygon even can be part of no UV map
floral moat
well uh then thats probably not the solution to my problem anyway lol
but ive been having an issue
where in blender my model looks fine but the uvs disappear in unity
this is what happens to it
ive been trying for quite a while and cant find an solutions
has this ever happened to you guys?
floral moat
but all of them corrospond to a different part of the mesh
ok i just tried deleting the uvs and all of the textures got dededeleted
latent charm
@floral moat If you want, send me the blend file (textures too, just save a copy, then go file>external data>pack all into .blend) and I can have a look at it over dinner.
latent charm
Ah, I can instantly see what's going on. Each material has a corresponding UV map & texture.
What you'll want to do is duplicate the mesh, clear out all the materials and UVs on the new one, unwrap it as one UV map, add a blank texture to it and bake textures from the original to the new one.
This may be similar to some of the texture atlasing tools out there.
@floral moat
For future reference, Unity expects the first UV channel to be for textures, the second is for lightmaps (if used) and the other two are for whatever, but that has to be specified in the shader.
floral moat
ok! Thanks alot man

I am quite new to blender and 3d in general.
I know you should stick to tris or quads, but in an effort to lower the poly count after subdividing, I cut off the head (as I want it to have the most detail), subdivided it more than the rest and connected it back, creating tris along the "seam". Is there a better way to do it and will doing it this way complicate things later?
https://imgur.com/a/A3KJFeY
latent charm
@sour mirage If you're adamant about avoiding tris, working the edge flow like this may be the solution to your problem.
https://media.blendernation.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Top_Alt.png
Lets you have more edges entering the zone than leaving as they loop flows back on itself.
floral moat
also i know its a dumb question but how would i bake the textures from a different object onto a uv map?
because i remove the materials so there isnt any textures left so baking just makes alot of white
latent charm
https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/render/blender_render/bake.html
Read this if you haven't already.
The general workflow is as follows:
Two meshes, the original with many materials & UVs, and the target with one material and one texture assigned to one UV map.
Bake textures from original to target using the selected to active option in the bake panel of the render tab.
sour mirage
@latent charm Thanks

i have one more question, sorry
is there anyway to make these lines less noticable?

Increase the UV island margin and make sure the bake margin is large enough too.

In object mode, select all those loose parts, then the armature, then ctrl+p, armature deform.
Re-join all loose parts.

I was on vertex selection mode with multiple vertex selected. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong there.
I ended up selecting a section and using the seperate by selection (merging later).
Do you have any suggestions for fixing the shape keys now that it's seperated? I'm hoping there's a fairly easy way to bring a set of vertices down to the rest of the shape. Otherwise I guess I'll have to do it manually. (There is no bone for this)

I would just take the head of a non-broken working model and replace the one that is fucked

I've tweaked a bunch of stuff on this (and I'm pretty sure the "remove doubles" caused it) as it originally worked fine

You arent supposed to use remove double on the head anyway
And you could
But shapekey may be broken
Thats why i would swap the whole head
vague idol
bah....alright I'll probably do that tomorrow then, thanks

Removing doubles on the head is a bad idea due to the fact that the geometry there is supposed to overlap a bit

humble glen
I would recommend in future that you instead go into edit mode, select linked vertices with L, and hit P, separate by selection
or go into edit mode, press C, then use the scroll wheel to adjust selection size and left click to select, middle click to deselect
also be in wireframe mode when you do that
but that's for when the model is made of an annoying number of seperate meshes
separate by material tends to be unreliable on a lot of models like that, and separate by loose parts tends to lead to an absolute disaster of loose meshes that are a nightmare to sort through
it's easier to just manually select and seperate them

@humble glen Separate by Loose Parts no longer creates as much meshes as it used to be ^^
humble glen
oh, with cats no
but with blender yes, I believe
unless they patched that out since I last used it
foggy maple
@humble glen Oh no, I mean with cats. Previously it just used the blender method, but now it uses some magic beforehand to merge some of those super small meshes
glacial pasture
blessed cats dev 🙏
but yes L and P was my old method, cats just streamlines so much

Cats has grown a lot
It was already super useful for MMD's, but it keeps getting more and more utilities in general

sly basalt
How could I move the bone of a long sleeve clothing and have the mesh move with the bone in Blender?
glacial pasture
You don't
foggy maple
@sly basalt You have to weight paint it
sly basalt
Its cool, CATS has a mode to do that. Got it done
foggy maple
Ah, you mean pose mode. I thought that it had no weight on it 😄
glacial pasture
@sly basalt Oh I thought you meant move the bones and move the mesh in a matter of moving both of them
Like if you needed to raise the arm bones higher with the jacket itself
sly basalt
Yea, I had the arms of the sleeves lower than the tpose model 's arm and I wanted the sleeve to match the arm. cats has that pose mode thing which made it easy. Then I use the transform function in blender to resize and move the bones and mesh together.

It’s just how it looks since it’s separate. If the verts were merged that would go away

thanks 😃
balmy warren
so I have this ripped model that I pieced together from all the separate meshes and it naturally doesn't come with the textures already applied. I'm planning on applying the textures through unity but I want to make sure that when I put it back through blender, combining the meshes won't interfere with how the textures are applied. if I do connect the meshes for rigging, will that change the UVmapping or will the meshes still be separate in terms of materials?
latent charm
Have a look at the uv map names in blender, if they're different per object you'll need to make them the same, otherwise when you join them they'll get discarded.
Separate materials will remain separate.

Anyone knows whether it's possible to connect multiple bones to their parents without having to go over them one by one?

in blender?
north remnant
yes
glacial pasture

I'd try shift clicking all the bones and seeing if you could set the parent with all of them highlighted
north remnant
That doesn't work, it just connects the last bone you selected from the group
brave dune
you can pareent mutliple bones to a single parent easily in blender
select all the bones you want, then select the parent last
then control+P
it wiill ask if you want to parent with connection or parent with keep offset

How can I have 2 separate objects but still connect vertices to each other?
I mustn't join the objects.
zinc furnace
You can't actually connect the vertices if the mesh is separate, I think.
You can have them affected by the same bones though
Or have two vertices with the same weight in the same location
elder leaf
That's sad. Thanks for the answer! At least i'm not left hanging.

spiral sigil
Hello to everyone, I have a question, the a ser isn't in Google... But Maybe someone here knows, how to merge 2 armatures in blender without lost the rigging???
latent charm
You can join two armatures the same way you join meshes, select both and press ctrl+j. Then join the two meshes and the weights should be preserved in the final merged result.
spiral sigil
Thank you 😊
latent charm
You'll probably need to shift some bone parenting around to attach the joined rigs together so it all moves correctly.
zinc furnace
Cats also has a merge armatures function if the two armatures are otherwise identical. @spiral sigil
This means both armatures need to have the same bone structure (or at least have matching parts)

The texture format is unlikely to be png, it will likely be a tga format. You'll need to look up a plugin to import mdl into blender, or find a software that allows direct importation of the mdl proprietary format.

Of what i know. vrchat hide the mesh that is connected to the head and behond. So if you put someting in your feel of view that have a texture or backface your going to be blind by it

@spiral sigil I'm running that version of blender on Windows 10 64-bit. I'm 100% certain it runs just fine on Windows 7 and 10 on all bit architectures.
spiral sigil
I can't wait to figure it out
sly lintel
@spiral sigil perhaps you can try opening a console (command prompt) inside the blender application folder
and start blender from there
the console window won't dissapear like that, so any errors you'd be missing will still be visible (in contrary when it closes immediately and eludes the eye)
perhaps that may give you more information

torpid moth
not at the moment

huh
torpid moth
experimenting at this point trying to see what would cause it
spiral sigil
@torpid moth you can ask unity to recalc your normals on the fbx import setting screen
should look a lot better
where it says normals select calculate and click apply: https://docs.unity3d.com/540/Documentation/uploads/Main/MeshExample40.png
if you don't like the result, set it back to import and apply and it will be back to imported normals
torpid moth
Seems like that looks good, ill have to clean up other parts of the model to make it complete

latent charm
@spiral sigil That image you linked suggests Unity uses its own tangent basis when calculating normals, do you know if it's similar to MikkTSpace or am I gonna be going off on another google adventure with this subject?
spiral sigil
PS: Blender can do this too, but we're lazy people
@latent charm oof, yeah, I have no idea, there should be a lot of info about it online though
latent charm
Yaaaay 🙃
Reason I asked is I do my normal baking in blender and occasionally when things come to unity the lighting changes the normal map does flips, specifically at UV seams.
spiral sigil
@latent charm you were totally right: https://docs.unity3d.com/560/Documentation/ScriptReference/ModelImporterTangents.html
default is MikkTSpace
latent charm
Oh thank fuck
Blender uses MikkTSpace as well as far as I know.
For anyone else curious, enable Tangent Space in the fbx exporter and that should give the correct tangent space.
spiral sigil
pin that my dude
@latent charm I think Unity calculates them by default though, using the normals
I'll edit out the tangent image because it's not too relevant for normal recalc if you want to pin it, hold on
so you'd have to tell unity to import them or they won't import
latent charm
I'd have left it in, since knowing how the damn things end up different based on where they're from can be useful in figuring out why things look weird to start with
Although also worth noting is how Enlighten can (and very frequently does) cause lightmap artifacts that can strongly resemble incorrect normals.
spiral sigil
enlighten looks so terrible half the time and has so many issues 😐
latent charm
It's fucking horrid.
torpid moth
@spiral sigil is there a way for me to still be able to have blendshapes?
spiral sigil
it shouldn't affect blendshapes at all?
torpid moth
I just noticed when I tried to apply my visemes changing to calculate splits my body mesh into 3 child meshes and disables the blendshapes
spiral sigil
how many polys is your Body mesh?
torpid moth
the part that is splitting is 62477
spiral sigil
anything over 60-65k gets split, has nothing to do with the normals
torpid moth
only with calculate?
spiral sigil
on import
torpid moth
I know that at a point the mesh is split for unity but no blendshapes?
spiral sigil
when it's split the blendshapes don't work anymore, blendshapes need a joined <60k something mesh
torpid moth
you mentioned a way to do this in blender instead?
spiral sigil
don't even import meshes larger than 60k into Unity ... it has a mesh object limit, it will always split them up
65534 vertices used to be the hardware drawcall/VBO limit
spiral sigil
unity starts splitting at about 60k
latent charm
~16 bit integers~
spiral sigil
@torpid moth optimize your model a lot more in blender first, also to fix normals in Blender, select a part or the whole model in edit mode and press CTRL + N to recalculate all the normals
to do the same thing as the importer in Unity I showed you
torpid moth
btw recalculating the normals didn't affect it, I tried that before coming here. also polys isnt a major issue with being optimized but i am addressing it
spiral sigil
get the whole avatar under 20k or you can't upload it
torpid moth
I am testing in unity
spiral sigil
unity splits it up into parts, it three times too many verts now
torpid moth
I understand if it may be a high vert count, just was trying to keep blendshapes after addressing the issue with the tangents
torpid moth
yes I know it splits them up but only shows that when the calculate normals is applied
spiral sigil
it has nothing to do with normals
torpid moth
for just this one at least, havent had that issue with some other models in world etc
the calculate settign was in normals
spiral sigil
splitting the mesh is because its too big
torpid moth
yeah I can understand why
spiral sigil
it is what it is
zinc furnace
@spiral sigil actually, the mesh being split can have a lot to do with calculating normals.
Setting normals and/or tangents to calculate can drastically increase the number of vertices in Unity for no apparent reason. I had a mesh that was 19k in Blender but always imported as 75k in Unity. This persisted until I set Tangents to None.
19k vertices, I mean.
It split into one with 65532 verts and another with the remaining 10k
spiral sigil
that's tangents, not normals 😉 and that's because you can't share verts anymore
so depending on the model, yeah, if you have a lot of shared verts and you recalc, you're gonna have separate ones
but let's be honest, a 'part' of his avatar was 62k, I mean, come on
zinc furnace
I have a model that I use in a world. It's roughly 64k
When I set normals to calculate, it jumps to 74k
spiral sigil
that's fine
zinc furnace
I didn't touch the tangent settings at all
spiral sigil
yeah, I guess on some models with a ton of shared verts you get that, I didn't think about that
if unity is splitting your avatar, the last thing to worry about is normals and tangent
was my point
glacial pasture
wait what's happening
jumping in late
Someone has a over 64K poly avatar and it's splitting body meshes?
spiral sigil
unity will automatically split meshes after 60k polys
glacial pasture
yep
spiral sigil
TLDR: somebody had ugly normals, I told them to recalc and their mesh got split, it was 'a part' of his avatar
glacial pasture
seperate your face and mark it as Body mesh, then everything else doesn't matter. Anything with blendshapes need to be combined together or everything'll fuck up
spiral sigil
then he blamed normals, I told him it was too big in the first place
glacial pasture
a little bit
spiral sigil
just wish people optimized their meshes, materials and shaders
zinc furnace
To be fair the difference between 20k and 40k will be very minimal
People need to optimize their dynamic bones too, most of all
spiral sigil
everything
glacial pasture
A buddys model had 4k textures on tiny little particles which could easily b e like 256 textures 😊
zinc furnace
Texture size doesn't matter as much
glacial pasture
it was the biggest part of their model...
zinc furnace
It's not about filesize
glacial pasture
it helps
zinc furnace
Although filesize is also important to keep in mind, so you don't end up with 8k textures that offer zero value and take up 80 megabytes of RAM
spiral sigil
polycount may not cause the most lag but it's still stupid and wasteful
zinc furnace
Not everyone has the 3D modeling skills required to redo the topology on a model
So they turn to decimation which is ugly in itself
spiral sigil
nobody even models anything, it's just MMDs
learn how to crunch it down
it's not rocket science
glacial pasture
yeah I can't disagree
alot of models are just something someone saw on deviantart straight to blender
spiral sigil
😄
glacial pasture
Yeah it has 20 different materials and each one uses a unique shader WHILE being 80k polys with everything dynamic boned
but it doesnt lag me so it's fine right
zinc furnace
I need to redo one of my avatars, too many dynamic bones on it
spiral sigil
just get a better PC 4head

zinc furnace
Skirts have like 12 columns of bones with 6 rows in them
The hair is usually not too bad
Also fuck that "full body avatar world" lmao
spiral sigil
i have 30 dynamic bones on one of my models and i never went above that, is that good enough ?
zinc furnace
"Let's take Shimakaze's body, put generic ass heads on it, then put cloth on everything"
Yeah, that's fine
You could probably optimize it further but eh
spiral sigil
i already removed like 30 bones from it
reee
friends only dynamic bones when?
friends only full body IK? 😄
sick of being in a public world and my fps drops 10 frames just from looking at some badly textured seiki with 4 spoilers and farting rainbows
zinc furnace
It's even worse when they put their unoptimized stuff in public avatar worlds
I always work very hard to optimize my stuff. Texture atlasing, meticulous dynamic bone merging
spiral sigil
or the viewball is in the chest 😏
that piss me off so much for some reason
what pisses me off is using cutout for the eye highlights 😄
zinc furnace
I don't really have a choice regarding that. A lot of models that I port have those kinds of eye highlights
But when I get it down to one material I generally have to use an opaque material with cutout
zinc furnace
Yeah, but 99% of shaders don't support partial transparency on an otherwise opaque material. Noenoe Toon Transparent does (god-tier shader honestly), but that has its own issues
Such as being one-sided
And having lighting artifacts
So I would need at least two materials
zinc furnace
Hold on, I'll make an imgur album of what happens when I try to make my avatar partially transparent on just one material. I actually think it looks better with cutout anyway.
zinc furnace
This is cutout: https://i.imgur.com/Ld7cXrH.png
This is transparency: https://i.imgur.com/CDmcuWL.png
Notice how the transparent bits of the hair erase the model behind it due to ZWrite
I honestly think the cutout has better looking highlights, anyway
spiral sigil
I atlas different groups so I can have a transparent material and an opaque one, but yeah, it's a lot of work
and I often change noe noe and cubed's toonshader code manually to fix things 😐
zinc furnace
Oh, apparently it's better to atlas everything in one texture
Then manually separate the materials afterwards
You can use vertex groups to make that easier probably
The second drawcall will be quite a bit faster if it shares a texture with the first one
Having one opaque and one transparent material is the best solution I think
spiral sigil
isn't that only when instancing is on?
spiral sigil
with instancing it will try to do it in one drawcall
since the material and texture are in gpu memory already
zinc furnace
Yeah, this is still two drawcalls, it's just somewhat faster
spiral sigil
not having to swap out a new texture probably causes that, I believe it
sonic nimbus
@spiral sigil Unity doesn't handle transparency well.
Its transparency handling is basic so it suffers from significant sorting issues.
I think it's perfectly reasonable to use a second material for transparent meshes.
It still won't avoid a lot of sorting issues but it will help.
And honestly any avatar <10 draw calls is already fewer draw calls than the vast majority of avatars.
spiral sigil
@sonic nimbus yeah, I think it's worth one mat/drawcall, I know Unity is terrible with sorting alpha, that's why their grass is cutout probably 😉
messing with queue in the shaders and poking around in popular toonshaders and changing a bunch of things yourself helps, like culling off or matcaps on top
sonic nimbus
These will hopefully all be improved with the HDRP whenever it gets VR support and VRChat switches to it.
spiral sigil
I just like it when tranparent elements really have varying alpha and nice blending, it just looks so smooth
on an avatar
sonic nimbus
The current pipeline is based on a really old architecture (DX9) and is constrained because it has to support both mobile and desktop.
spiral sigil
people all use cutout and I understand why, it's robust and works with all the MMD messy textures and eye layers for example
use the wrong material and it won't even show up in a mirror 😝
dx9? really, at least not the shadermodel
not even sure if the rainbow overlay shaders would work with dx9 era shadermodel
sonic nimbus
@spiral sigil Yeah, the pipeline is architectured in a DX9 way even though it supports DX11.
spiral sigil
The default mode of operation is largely DX9-style “one draw call per light with additive blending”. Quality settings of the game determine how many lights per-object will be rendered in realtime; the rest are folded into a spherical harmonics (SH) representation and rendered together with other ambient lighting.
sonic nimbus
Yeah, that's the relevant bit.
The HDRP is a much more modern architecture that takes advantage of the flexibility provided by compute shaders.
