If you have no differences between PC and Quest side you can just switch the platform from Unity build menu and upload it
vale trench
ya im saying do i have to upload it as pc then upload it again as quest
steel fern
You have to upload for each platform separately
vale trench
so basically yes

Yes every time you make some change

So i'm looking for some avatars from the series Overlord, I can't exactly make my own so I was wondering if any knew a world where I could find some, I already have Ainz
If not i'd also happily welcome any fantasy like worlds
sage fiber
Quick question, is it safe to keep one project for a world and just switch from W/M/L standalone to android, or should i maintain two projects for the same map?
steel fern
If there is no difference in used assets between the platforms yes
Just keep in mind that for big projects platform switch will take hella long time
sage fiber
Small project so meh
steel fern
Should be fine then
sage fiber
Just need to take some mirror stuff out and (im going to assume due to a shader being used) noenoe pens can't be in there
steel fern
I'm not sure about noe's but I would test first, they might work just fine with some minor changes or out of the box
sage fiber
It's custom i would need to tweek the particle system used
steel fern
You can disable them or use different pens for quest build as long as you're fine with them not being synchronised
rain star
Noe pens work fine on Quest
steel fern
Then there's no issue at all eh

steel fern
That seems more like lightmap problem
steel fern
I would say play with lightmap filtering settings, that seems like most likely culprit
steel fern
RGBA ASTC formats should be supported
plain moth
@past shell always use astc 4x4 block for making quest content
Increasing the block lowers the quality so maybe in some cases you need 5x5 etc but quest has lots of memory available for graphics
past shell
thats the only one with zero artifact. Yes its the best.

Is the Mobile/Lightmapped shader a suitable alternative to unlit? or should i just use standard light with an emission?

@past shell I've been told ASTC is the best, but slows things down much more when converting assets in Unity
past shell
i don't really care if its only affect the editor. its the final result that matter
plain moth
it's way way better than ETC2. Please use ASTC 4x4 block or 5x5 block. One of the big sources of slowdown is the Ethan model in standard assets. I'd suggest deleting him and it will save time.
Also, to cut down on import time make use of a cache server to save time, or do what I do duplicate the project and copy the Assets folder back and forth whenever you want to convert to PC and back. As long as you move the whole Assets folder, it should be safe and import just what changed since last time you opened the project.

Is there a way to add the Android SDK to an already installed unity version? I'm doing a commission for someone and they need it to be quest compatible and I can't figure out how to get the android sdk installed
@ me if you can help
plain moth
First step make sure you have unity hub. If no, install unity hub and use the Locate button to find your existing unity install
That's how you add a module like android to unity @iron edge
More detail about android https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/android-sdksetup.html
You shouldn't need to install your own sdk. Unity comes with one built in
steel fern
Both hub and standalone installer come with module selection during installation
If it's standalone install you can install the module by going to Unity download archive and getting the build environment installer, if it's installed from hub you can install it from there
If you used headless deployment container for Unity then you likely have proper license and can download the modules installer from Unity FTP
past shell
thats sound complicate word
So when you install unity you have the option to add other platform. Quest use android. Even after you install unity. You can go in file/build setting and select/download android.

hollow spade
Are qvpens still adapted for quest by changing the shader to color>unlit? Reason why I'm asking is that the Mute Chat world seems to be using a shader that allows for that rainbow pen to work.
plain moth
The problem with QvPen's bundled shader is it uses a Geometry stage.
@hollow spade any shader which is not a Geometry shader should work, actually...
Also trails have some builtin features which can make them go rainbow using a color gradient--you don't always need a custom shader
Do note!
The bundled settings for QvPen have Trail Renderer -> Width set to 0. This will not work for any normal shader: generally setting width to 0 makes it invisible.
So make sure to increase width. I suggest 0.005 or 0.01
you can do this easily in bulk by typing t:TrailRenderer into the search bar, or type Ink into the search bar, shift-click all of the Ink objects, and set the width to 0.005
hollow spade
Any way to tell which shaders are geometry shaders?

Hi! i was looking for tutorials how to upload a world to quest and i havent found any, is the proces of uploading to quest the same as uploading avatars? just switching to android? or do i have to do something else?
cobalt hound
So i dont know whats happening because when i switch my vrchat control panel buil button disappears
plain moth
Did you make sure to add android support to your project
Also you need to optimize your world for quest. Not all pc features are allowed
Honestly I usually recommend making a separate project for quest. BUT! I'd check out Jordo's "easy quest switch" prefab
Easy Quest Switch can be found in the prefabs database (pinned message in #world-development )
steel fern
Just about anything except for media players should work cross platform, just keep the safe limits somewhat in mind but for general switch procedure, make copy of your project, switch the copy to Android and upload, check how it works
If you're getting crashes just nuke the SDK and plugins from the copy of project completely, switch to Android and then reimport SDK

naive pagoda
You could try removing textmesh pro trough the package manager to start with
Also I don't suggest using Legacy Diffuse at least on pc it appears as broken in game from my tests
sly scroll
I don't think I have textmesh pro..... and I though I'm not using Legacy Diffuse.... could be hiding at somewhere...
steel fern
Legacy diffuse is virtually the same shader as mobile diffuse
Also clear your temporary files and save the scene again
Also textmeshpro is sorta broken in 2018, use canvas and normal textmesh
rugged lintel
Anyone seen that guy with the COOL world with the pokemon skins? Yeah, longstory short I have no more favorite slots
naive pagoda
@steel fern yes it basically is, that's why you should not be using the legacy and instead use any other working versions
steel fern
That's probably result of uncompiled shader, legacy diffuse works perfectly fine on PC. With that said both legacy diffuse and mobile diffuse are not exactly something one would want to use, writing basic diffuse shader is simple and even some of the shader labs examples will likely yield better results
naive pagoda
This is on PC though 🤔
It's gonna work in the editor but turn pink ingame
https://ptb.discordapp.com/channels/189511567539306508/361741445352259584/711320495982641222
There was already one person today that had their hole world pink because they were using legacy diffuse in their world
steel fern
That must be new then, there honestly isn't any reason legacy diffuse shouldn't compile or render properly, it's reference shader
naive pagoda
Even unity recommends not to use legacy shaders, but yeah it is new that legacy diffuse is breaking
There's even more problems that just come from using legacy shaders that I've run into before as well
But don't have any examples of those currently
steel fern
Well that's sorta problem because most standard shaders fallback to diffuse
naive pagoda
Fall back to the Standard included with Unity is VertexLit at the moment
steel fern
I'll try to compile legacy diffuse for OpenGL 4.x target separately later to see if it's problem with shader itself or if it's client side bug
naive pagoda
And Mobile/Diffuse is basically the the non legacy basic diffuse
Main reason Legacy shaders are still included is for backwards compatibility for older projects I doubt it is unity's priority checking on them
steel fern
There is no reason diffuse would fail tho, it's as basic as lit shader gets
naive pagoda
Yeah I don't know why it does I just know it does 🤷
Still no one should be using the legacy shaders and instead use the mobile or vrchat versions that are similar
steel fern
VRC mobile diffuse doesn't support albedo colour, only texture, which can be problem
naive pagoda
Yeah that's true that's why I have my own version I changed around
steel fern
Then again you can just take the VRC diffuse shader and make albedo colour variant, it's like 10 LOC tops
naive pagoda
But I did just try a new project and build it and here it seems to work so this might be just a vrchat bug
I could make a canny about it I guess
I'm gonna experiment some more
Oh I most likely have an idea why it might be failing 🤔
@steel fern I figured out why it wasn't working 👌 I'm gonna make a canny about the issue

Find the Console window/panel. Disable Clear On Play button on it. Then clear your console, change something small (like add an empty game object) and try again.
This should cause error messages to show up
Usually it's caused by a bad or unsupported script somewhere in your assets
But the red error should tell you which script @blissful parrot
Also-- does your unity have android support installed. If not you might want to add that in unity hub and reopen the project

That's camera setting of the world, if it has no clipping plane settings it will use whatever value was last (automata flowers has it at 0 for example) but if it's set that's what you're stuck with in that world

what should I set it to for the most compatibility

Compatibility with what, setting it low will prevent culling of hands and other objects in front of your viewport but will cause rendering problems on distant objects

trail rover
so I have a question I have a world I am making for both pc vr and quest the pc vr side works great but when I upload it to quest the right eye shows a different render from the left eye and makes you go cross-eyed has any one ever had this happen and how might I fix it?
serene elbow
@trail rover This is best known as double vision and can commonly happen. I've experienced this first hand as well as trouble shoot it for others. There are a couple of things that can cause double visions for both worlds and avatars :
2. out of date SDK
3. Improper Skyboxes```
- Particle shaders have been reported for mainly avatars not worlds.
- I've experienced the SDK being out of date. Check to make sure your current SDK is the most current with VRChat.
- I've troubleshot a friend's world creating where he experienced having his default skybox wasn't actually working properly. Check to make sure in `Window > Rendering > Light Settings > Environment > Skybox Material` is not showing some sort of issue. Regardless, it is best to attempt to create a new 6 sided skybox, even if its a temporary bad one, and just replace it in the Light Settings box to ensure. Then reupload your world.
Let me know if this works or if you found another solution so I can add it to the list of things to help people troubleshoot! 👍
clever summit
wait the pydance world is not quest friendly i remember seeing a dance world that allowed quest and pc
=/
plain moth
sadly, quest doesn't support video players, except very specific hardcoded URLs using the builtin unity video player
and on top of that, the 50MB download size limits how much videos / music you can have in the world
so something like pypy could never work on quest in its form, unless the world literally contained the music videos
I feel like MMD worlds could be made quest compatible but you'd probably have like 10 or 15 songs per world only
clever summit
hmmm thats sad to hear. the world can be certainly entertaining for them
hopefully they implement the video player support so far pydance just streams the videos 1.01mb is the world size tho the 40 players is gonna be impossible so another 10 people or 12 for quest

@serene elbow so I changed my sky box several times, even put it as a solid color, after about an hour I decided to use the older sdk since I had used it before on another world and that fixed the issue. the first sdk I was using was the "VRCSDK2-2020.05.12.10.37_Public" I switched back to VRCSDK2-2020.04.01.10.20 and it worked perfectly even when I put back in the original sky box

How does the tri count for worlds look on quest? These are usually where I can really get low and optimise
lusty vault
It’s not so much total tri count it’s how many can you see at once. camera culling is required
cloud bear
Yea
Can you make a huge wide wall with 2 triangles without it lagging?
Or is it better if it's just a but more dense?
lusty vault
The documentation suggests you keep total tris under 50K for worlds
Size of tris doesn’t matter except that huge ones won’t cull
cloud bear
Makes senae
Sense
The bigger triangle count is probably for worlds like modeling a real life house or something
Or just big worlds
steel fern
Generally speaking avoiding rounded shapes will save you tris obviously so anything that can be broken down to cube primitives can easily be optimised to minimal polycount, even very large maps can be lowpoly if you avoid rounded primitives

So I am making Quest support right now
Is there a way to achieve the same result for a mobile shader?
lusty vault
Yes. Matcap shader.
Use the diffuse texture and then The matcap texture would be a black and white blurry metal ball with that horizon sheen
Something like this https://www.pinterest.com/pin/425730971004943842/
if you get matcap textures on the Internet you usually have to crop them so the edges of the texture are tangent to the ball
lusty vault
Models that rely on transparent or cutout shaders should be remade to not need them
steel fern
For world you can use transparent and cutout shaders as usual
Just keep in mind that it's added load for GPU so use it sparingly
For matcap, you'll probably want to write your own matcap shader using some examples as source or use one of the store ones but those are... not very good
steel fern
It's recommended
normal storm
Ideally yes
steel fern
Generally it is better for performance so yes

So if I bake lighting in blender and import the texture to my map in Unity, would that work?
Because baking light in Unity for quest cripples the light maps for the Quest, which ends up looking like crap.
plain moth
@vital lance you can fix textures looking like crap on quest by changing the textures to ASTC 4x4 RGB or RGBA in the texture import settings
The default is ETC2 which literally quantizes colors and causes severe color banding
steel fern
ETC2 is legacy fallback, always use ASTC when possible
plain moth
you can bake lighting in blender, but you will have to modify the shader / figure out how to get it to use that texture instead of the usual lightmap. I've successfully done this in a project, and I know friends who have accomplished the same, so it is possible but not out of the box
vital lance
Would it be more optimized to render it in blender or Unity?
plain moth
no, there's no optimization benefit
vital lance
This is only for the quest btw. I already took care of the light bake for PC
plain moth
yeah, I'd start by looking at the import settings of your lightmap
See here for how to change the default texture compression for Android:
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Lightmaps-TechnicalInformation.html
Again Quest recommends ASTC . other compression formats will not look good
vital lance
This is the baked light on the PC version. Works like a charm
This is the android version with the same scene (same baked light). How can I change this?
@plain moth
past shell
a yes
plain moth
Yes @vital lance that looks like the artifacts caused by using ETC2
you need to change your texture compression to ASTC. Did you read the link I posted?
past shell
change to that
on all your texture in your scene and use the RGBA for the thing with transparency/cutout
plain moth
that's for textures, but you have to do something different for lightmaps
*If the target is Android then you can override the default texture compression format from the Build Settings to one of the following formats: DXT1, PVRTC, ETC2, ASTC. The default format is ETC for RGB textures and ETC2 for RGBA textures.
vital lance
plain moth
Also did you read
The Other Settings panel in the Player settings has a Lightmap Encoding option for these platforms
its' not format: that's talking about color format
vital lance
I am very confused, because on of my settings match yours. Also it is set not to override any textures during upload
The 24-bit did it. Thanks @plain moth
plain moth
hmm, that might be uncompressed - so your world might be large and use extra vram
but maybe it's ok if your lightmaps are small
ASTC would be better but yeah they do look to have moved things around in 2018. it's confusing
the unity docs are helpful as always
steel fern
Switch to internal build system instead of Gradle, too, it bloats the resulting file
Gradle is meant for standalone APK builds
plain moth
huh, I think VRChat world uploads don't do a full build though...they just create a asset bundle
so pretty sure the world uploads end up the same size, even if unity tells you one will be smaller
steel fern
Gradle still bundles some redundant files with it
It's better to stick to internal unless your Android SDK is giving you troubles
plain moth
Good to know. All I can say is the quest version of VRMC is 3.50MB and I never changed the defaults. It's built with Gradle selected
It's much smaller than the PC version, but the overhead of gradle must be extremely tiny if it's there. I probably would focus on other optimizations first
vital lance
So I am using these pencils for a lesson, and apparently they do not sync between PC and andriod

Anyone know how to sync this gameobject between Andriod and PC?
lusty vault
Are the scenes the same in both builds?
Infinite reasons it wouldn’t work, make sure all triggers are the same for both versions
plain moth
not the issue of the prefab or directory, but rather the scene you put it in
when porting content from PC <-> quest, you should use the same scene, and disable objects you don't need
if you start with a fresh scene, objects may be in a different order, which means they will get assigned different network IDs and either not sync or get mixed up
vital lance
The problem is the fact that I have different detailed light maps
plain moth
that should be fine, just swap out the meshes in the scene
you can duplicate the scene and swap stuff.
Some world authors use this prefab:
https://booth.pm/ja/items/1893576
this helps you keep stuff between PC and Quest (and it has an english version too, don't worry)
vital lance
You are a life saver. Thank you so much
plain moth
if you want to keep doing what you are doing right now.... I suspect making a nwe scene with all the network synced stuff in it like pens, world descriptor etc
then duplicate that for pc and quest, and then add in all the graphics objects and stuff that doesn't use sync
and same for pc... that way the original stuff you start with might have the same network id
and of course network synced stuff must be at the same path...try to only add stuff to the bottom maybe, not sure what order it iterates but probably better safe than sorry
tall isle
why does the build and publish button disappear when I try to upload my world to quest?
plain moth
There might be errors
For example some features don't work on quest
Or you did not run the unity installer and add android support.
tall isle
There aren't any errors in the console
The build and publish button is just not there for some reason
tall isle
anyone know what to do?
plain moth
@tall isle you need to make the window bigger
like drag from the bottom and make it bigger
you kind of checked every possible tag...they probably didn't test what happens when you have so many tags

edgy pebble
OK, i have an extremely dire problem! two of my worlds that ive just uploaded have an insanely bad problem. the left eye can see just fine but in the right eye, the world is almost "projected" except for seats, mirrors, portals, and avatar pedestals. its extremely motion sickness inducing and i have absolutely no clue what i could have done to cause it, this is even more annoying due to the fact that this is the second time that ive had a problem similar to this.
normal storm
What shader are you using for your world?
edgy pebble
standard lite, mobile diffuse, i think mobile lightmapped (although thats only on one of the worlds) and toon lit
steel fern
I would check camera settings, this is almost always shader problem or camera settings problem
edgy pebble
i havent messed with the camera on either of them, and i wouldnt know what to look for
normal storm
My guess was shaders too, since usually bad shaders create issues with seeing something different in one eye than the other
edgy pebble
this is the second time ive had bad luck with the mobile shaders causing odd effects between eyes and its starting to annoy me
i would love to get this fixed asap and i dont really want to make them private since i dont want to wait a week to put them back through labs
steel fern
Try to upload copy of the world using nothing but legacy diffuse, if the problem persists it's camera problem
normal storm
I thought legacy wasn't supposed to be used?
edgy pebble
i dont think you could even upload it with that shader
normal storm
You can if it's a world
But last time I forgot to change the shader from legacy to something else, the object was pink
edgy pebble
trying to upload just tells me to fix compiler errors
steel fern
Legacy diffuse is the simplest world shader you can use
And is known to work on Quest without issues
If you have compiler errors there's broken scripts in your project somewhere, try to backtrace it to origin
edgy pebble
how do i do that?
also i thought i removed everything that wouldnt work well on quest but if theres an error then i guess not
steel fern
The error output should point to the source of the error
edgy pebble
wheres the error output?
edgy pebble
this is all i see
steel fern
Scroll up
edgy pebble
theres a few repeats of those from trying to build it again but this is the only other unique one
steel fern
That's weird one, it seems like there's problem with builtin script
Try to filter it to only show errors
steel fern
Those are irrelevant, what's important is that you have Unity Collab enabled but it failed to connect
Either disable it from Unity package manager or check if it isn't blocked by firewall
edgy pebble
it doesnt really seem like its enabled, ill go figure out if its blocked, not sure why it would
curious as to why this only became a problem after changing all of the shaders?
steel fern
It could also be problem with SDK itself
edgy pebble
nothing under unity is blocked
steel fern
Either way, collab is in services window, I believe it might be enabled by default
edgy pebble
and i just migrated the sdk yesterday, or this morning i cant remember, but there shouldnt be anything that went wrong
and the pic shows right there it isnt enabled
steel fern
My bad
But the collab is the only blocking element from the error log
So maybe try enabling it instead? It's not problem with project but rather builtin editor component judging by the error log
edgy pebble
i guess ill just flip it a few times and see if it works itself out
ive tried it with it on and with it off and it makes no difference
this is pissing me off, this was only supposed to be a short project
steel fern
Never expect Unity to just work
edgy pebble
all i did was change some shaders and the thing just breaks
steel fern
I would also try to switch build target from Android to PC and back again, maybe something didn't get compiled properly
edgy pebble
for goodness sake, that fixed it
steel fern
Unity - working as intended
edgy pebble
of course its only a temporary victory since we still have to figure out whats wrong with the world itself
well guess its a shader issue then, not surprised at all
steel fern
Well it was likely shader that failed to compile then
Sticking to builtin like legacy diffuse is always safe solution but obviously that won't work for things that need shader with more options
edgy pebble
you know something just occured to me, i might be wrong but it feels like this problem correlates to me using the build settings switcher in the vrchat control panel instead of unitys built in one
steel fern
Well, that likely might be the problem
edgy pebble
if that is the underlying problem then im surprised it isnt a more common problem, ill have to do some personal bug checking to find out for sure
steel fern
I noticed the SDK switch is faster which likely means it doesn't do full platform switch
Or assumes that some assets are crossplatform by default
edgy pebble
i honestly hope thats it because that means i can finally fix the problem on my one avatar aswell
steel fern
Certainly worth a try
edgy pebble
yep that indeed fixed the world, once i find if the avatar gets fixed ill go close the bug report and open a new one on this
thank you very much for the help!
steel fern
You're welcome even if it was jsut trial and error
edgy pebble
well you stuck around and gave helpful tips, just wish i could find these simple fixes sooner

question - the stereoscopy is messed up in my world that i just uploaded. did everything like normal as far I could tell. Looks fine on PC non-vr, eyes are not rendering properly on the Quest. any idea what could be causing it? I don't have a Camera in the scene but when i did and had it as reference camera, it didn't solve the problem
the stereoscopy in particular is what is messed up
plain moth
@stone owl this is caused by shaders importing before your project settings were configured correctly and not reimporting after changing it
If you know all the shaders in your world (for example ones included in the VRCSDK), you can find each and every one and do right click -> Reimport
Otherwise, you might need to do a right click -> Reimport All and let it reimport all assets
oh, another common cause - if it's rendering only left eye and right eye is black (or otherwise just broken)... it's because one of your shaders uses GrabPass
GrabPass is required for shaders which use other pixels on their screen than the one being rendered, as opposed to blending with the current pixel for transparent stuff
so common causes are: screen overlay shaders / postprocessing, water (Please use 1001's water shader in the prefabs database), refraction / certain glass effects
if you really don't know, you might want to disable custom shaders and switch stuff to the VRChat Mobile shaders where possible
serene elbow
@stone owl If stereoscopy is another name for double vision, then some of the solutions have been : ```
- Deleting SDK , Reimporting your SDK , then Restart Unity and Re-Upload the world.
- Replace the default Skybox with something else```

How would I create a trigger to parent an object to another object? That's not TakeOwnership correct?
plain moth
@serene elbow Install Toybox from prefabs database in #world-development pinned messages.
Create a new game object with an unchecked animation component, add the EventSelectorOnce animator from toybox.
Add Component -> Button. Set transition to None and set navigation to None. In the On Click () box, add 3 actions.
First action, put itself into the first box and put Animator-> Rebind from the menu
Second action put Animator -> enabled from the menu and uncheck it
Third action: put the first object in the first box, then find Transform-> SetParent then put the second object in the second box.
Finally, every time you want to set the parent, make your trigger do SetComponentActive and your special button/animator game object and put True
Be careful changing an object's parent if it has synced triggers because it may break them; or object sync because it might break syncing for new joiners maybe?
...
A completely different approach is to not set the object's parent but instead add an AutoCam onto it. The AutoCam works a lot like a ParentConstraint which you use on avatars but is banned in sdk2 worlds for some reason.
Basically go to the object you want to be changed, and add a Camera component. Uncheck the camera. You won't use it but it needs to be there. Then Add a AutoCam component. Uncheck Auto Target Player. Set the first things to Infinity and set the last things to 0. Finally drag in your target object in the target slot and uncheck the auto cam.
Your trigger will do SetComponentActive AutoCam true to activate it
serene elbow
@plain moth Appreciate the help. Definitely odd as to why World AutoCam is banned though
plain moth
No it's not @serene elbow
I meant that ParentConstraint is banned in sdk2
So you need to do something a bit more complicated
AutoCam is ok in sdk2
Hope my instructions work.

Is there a way to be able to interact with objects you create without VRChat highlighting the entire collision box? Say if i was messing with a screen with triggers and i wanted to have some sort of closing button. it would highlight the entire screen rather than just me being able to hover over it and click it. i think button ui do something like this
plain moth
I believe you can override the highlight by creating a tiny MeshRenderer inside the object you want to use. For objects with a mesh inside you want to avoid the highlight, you can do this by upgrading to a SkinnedMeshRenderer, because VRChat ignores those for highlights. There's a tiny overhead for skinned meshes, but if it's just the one button, it should be ok.
The other weird effect though is it vibrates your controller every time you look at your controller (it's really weird like that: the vibration depends on if the center of the object or the controller is visible on screen, not whether it is highlighted).

Working on this ❤️ so far it's 4.5 mb in size
so my world works fine on PC but it's all black on the quest
plain moth
You must bake your lighting on quest
All black? No skybox either?
Can you try changing shaders on things in your world? You may have chosen shaders which are not quest compatible. Try VRChat->Mobile->"Standard Lite" for starters, or try Standard
The lighting does look very un-baked. So that's the first thing to figure out perhaps

Hey y’all

@floral harness if they work, they might get decompressed on load and use up all of the limited memory. You should convert them to png in a different program
floral harness
oh you think? I've loaded as small as 2 megs
plain moth
BC7 will be decompressed. DXT1,5 might be unsupported completely
DDS can contain several formats. Generally good to avoid that format in general
And let unity recompress
floral harness
oh i get you 🙂 thanks

@wary ginkgo did u fix the crosseyed issue?

You can try out EasyQuestSwitch by Jordo: https://github.com/JordoVR/EasyQuestSwitch
other than that, it's just going through the list of materials shown by the SDK and converting them as needed
note that some shaders it thinks are bad performance are actually fine. for example Unlit and some UI shaders

is there a fix for "pickups" object sync between pc and quest.
I have four pickup objects that aren't synced properly between quest and pc. The name is the same and path to it is the same. Even in the hierarchy...
Yes... its two different projects. I thought it be good to have a separate project. Like I didnt have an issue with it til I added three more pickups.
plain moth
If anything is different between the two projects, that could happen. I'd recommend one project and a tool such as EasyQuestSwitch to fix stuff between them
If you want to sync them up but keep two separate projects, close Quest unity. Then You can delete the assets folder in the quest project and copy Assets from pc to quest project. Then open the Quest project again
But you will almost certainly have to redo some of the quest specific changes. I recommend learning EasyQuestSwitch so you don't have to do that work an extra time

I'm porting a world I just made to quest, but no matter what I've changed and tried to fix it renders twice. I don't know what is causing this as I've had a similar issue with avatars and I figured out how to fix that
Any help would be greatly appreciated
The world is a tribute to my pet/best friend who just passed away and I really want to get it working on quest so I can make it my home world without blinding myself when I'm on quest
plain moth
@scenic tapir water shaders and "glass" shaders can cause this effect, as can anything that uses Refrection "GrabPass" in unity terms. If you need a quest water shader, there is a really nice one by 1001 in the prefabs database. I you need a quest glass shader, use Standard or something like it can do glass pretty nicely without the GrabPass that doesn't work
scenic tapir
I'll have to check out everything then and see if anything is doing that, I originally thought it could be a shader issue but since I changed everything over to mobile ones to quest and it didn't work I didn't know what else to do
Hopefully this works and thank you if it does

Was over on the worlds channel looking for help but my issue seems to be Quest-specific. Basically, I can build and test a world on PC, publish to PC and access the world from a PC but while everything seems to work the same with no errors when I switch the build to android, attempting to access my world with my Quest gives me a second of black before booting me to the default home world. This is the case with my custom worlds and with the sample scenes included with the VRChat SDK. I've even tried deleting everything from the scene but the floor, spawn, and camera and the same thing happens. I've also tried changing the standard shader to VRChat's diffuse material because it doesn't seem to like the standard shader. Any ideas?

@hidden horizon how big is the world on quest?

Turns out the solution was just getting the Android SDK. I thought the VRChat SDK had everything needed to publish to Quest in it already but after getting that, everything's been working fine.

For world you can use alpha particle shader. But don't use it on thing like tree since it's multiple plane behind each other. You will see some weird blending.

If I were to create a stylized forest scene, would it be better to:
• Use an alpha cutout transparency for the masses of leaves. The result is very optimized tree foliage models
• Model the foliage detail, resulting in lot more polygons but no transparency
plain moth
Better...
In terms of performance: definitely #2 (provided you don't go too too crazy and make each leaf 1000's of polys).
In terms of development time and your own sanity: maybe #2 but maybe #1 - sometimes development time matters more than the quality (or performance isn't bad enough to justify doing extra work). The question is: can you hit 72 frames with a few people in the room.
alpha cutout transparency is supposedly as bad or worse than ordinary transparency, so that's not going to lead to great performance...

Hey everyone!
I am looking for people who are familiar with creating worlds and who are willing to support me in a project.
Background: I work as a systemic consultant and together with you I would like to use the potential of VR to create a world for remote counselling. I use to work with people with physical disabilities like muscular atrophy or paraplegia. They are not able to move objects in real life. In VR they can as many of them can still move their heads and are able to control avatars with their hands. So it would be feasible to use effective Gestalt therapy techniques like arranging objects, life-size drawings and working with space.
I have a large, cozy and simple designed room in mind, with small movable objects and the possibility to draw.
Any serious input is welcome!
north marsh
I am not sure how well this can work within vrchat. Might be a better idea to develop your own app for it
glad knot
I am not a developer and new to vr. Why do u think it won't work? I think building a world in VR is a lower hanging fruit. Perhaps you know worlds which already have these features. The ones I checked out did not seem appropriate
north marsh
Vrchat isnt really designed to create your own ways to control things like objects. It can be done buts its phinicky
glad knot
Do you know any existing app in wich it this is possible, which allows interaction between people (and lets u customize)?
btw thanks alot for commenting 🤩

I can use things like poiyomi on world objects right, I'm just limited on shaders for avatars? or do I have to use the Mobile shaders for world shaders as well
quartz scaffold
You can use other shaders on worlds
low cargo
mobile can't run my shaders period
it's simply too powerful
neither can mac
It's a limitation of the hardware and graphics APIs

Well in that case... @proper herald sorry but no.
You could still use cut-out shaders though
Like standard

yhea I got that for like tree leaves, was hoping to have a paning texture though

Poiyomi freeze my unity when on android.
plain moth
poiyomi's shaders are not designed for use on quest - and tend to be geared more for avatars than worlds anyway
Also...how do you know it's caused by poiyomi? Does the freeze not happen if you delete the shader?
if you think it is poiyomi's editor scripts at fault, I would report the issue to Poiyomi on their discord (I've seen them cause exceptions when not even using them... but never freezes.)

Happen when i forget to plug the shader in easy quest switch to change it to unlit. If it stay on poiyomi the editor freeze and i have to go back on windows to change prior

The shader does not function with android and therefor isn't really tested with it

The shader is use for the pc plateform. A official one is use from the vrchat sdk for android. But the unity ingine will freeze when selec a material with the shader named poiyomi.

yeah it's way too intense for android

Would anyone happen to know why when I load a world on Quest, I can see fine out of only one eye at first while the other is either dark or like double vision?

To switch between platform versions you have to go in File > Build settings & select Android/PC and click switch platform from there, the weird eye issue is from using the SDK button that has a bug

Hi to all, newbie here. I follow guides to build a World, Unity right version, SDK, Android, upload. I see my world in "My worlds". From web i click "Launch World" or "Invite me", i see Share link ... now, if i click the link in Oculus Browser, nothing occur. Inside VRChat in Quest, i cannot find any invite or my world. In web 'Community Labs' i see 'You don't have enough trust to publish worlds, yet.' but i just want to enter only myself to check it before publish. Any tips? Thx.

Did you check the my worlds section in game? That would be the easiest way to join your own private world.

I don't have in Oculus Quest under "Worlds" the section "Mine" or "My worlds", and i'm logged with the same account (VrChat, not Oculus account)....
If i use the web interface via Oculus Browser, i see the section "My worlds", i can launch, but button "Launch World" or "Invite me" don't do nothing
Edit: issue resolved, i don't know why was the issue, i rebuild from stratch anything. Thx anyway.

Is there any way to create custom shaders for Quest? If your shaders are based on the default ones (with slight mods) do they work? Does anyone know what (specifically) causes compatibility issues?
My current demo
This is what I'm working on...I use this shader to hide everything but the skybox & the doorway: https://github.com/doomlaser/DepthMask-Unity-Shader. It works beautifully in Unity & on PC, but breaks down in Quest (reverts to black)....Is there any way to fix it?
shut prism
for worlds you can use whatever shaders you want, but know that they have and adverse affect on performance.
signal arch
I guess my question is specifically about stencil shaders, ones that hide everything but the skybox, as seen above.
Here’s the same demo as before but in VR (Quest). The shader isn’t working at all. Instead, I get this black box.
I know that it will physically allow you to use these shaders, I’m just wondering why they (this one specifically) tend to break the game (or just not work). Is there a specific formatting that you need to follow for Quest?
coarse grail
signal arch
That’s so frustrating, but I guess we have to live with it. I’ll try to find a work around, maybe with baked occlusion, mirrors, matcaps or with normals...who knows.

I’m not sure if it would be possible, but it would be cool if Oculus Quest 2 could have video players in VRChat worlds

Yo so Im having a problem with my world whenever I try to load in it will go to black and kick me to home
This only happens on quest and Im using all mobile shaders
Theres nothing in like the build menu saying something is going wrong either
vital lance
That happens every once in a while to me too. I often will close down VRChat and reopen it, and that will fix it. If not, then I don’t know.
signal arch
@dusty smelt First, check to make sure that your world isnt over 50mb (the world limit for Quest). Next, clear your cache in the advanced settings and re-start VRChat. It should work.

I need some help what like to do is have a player click this sphere and then spawn inside the room can someone help me with this?

signal arch
Wrong thread. Check out ‘Quest Avatars’ or the general chat.
@dusty smelt If you made the world yourself, make sure you have a VRCWorld element in your scene. If you do, but the world is still not working, try replacing the SDK in your unity file (download a brand new one). As a last resort, click ‘detach’ in the ‘VRC World’ object properties panel before you upload.

I'm about to start work on an Udon world that I would like to be Quest compatible. Are there some ways in which I can build it such that it's as easy as possible to get the Quest version done/ be able to switch between the PC/ Quest versions and essentially develop one map but spit out a PC and a Quest build?
the last time I did a Quest version of a map, I believe I duplicated the project and changed a lot of the assets in the Project and the Quest specific scene, which isn't feasible when I just want essentially 2 builds from the one project/ scene
vital lance
i mean they literally tell you outright to dupe the project 😔
i want one project and 2 builds
the best compromise i can think of would be to do rare quest updates, which essentially amount to duping the project and optimising, for each 'major' update

@vital lance you do not have to be stuck with VRChat shaders for worlds. They are just encouraging you to use things mobile optimized. Also a lot of custom shaders neglect to add the macros necessary to implement multiview / stereo instancing, which causes the eye mismatch
So if they work for you use them, but sometimes custom shaders can allow for optimization in another way
