avatar-quest

[compact lily]

But considering a new blank project is broken, it’s likely an engine issue

[elfin sparrow]

I did reimport both the package mentioned in the errors as well as the whole library

yea thats what I'd figure

[compact lily]

I would try delete the Library folder from the root of the project

And then reopen the project

(Do this on the blank project btw)

[elfin sparrow]

oh yea def

[compact lily]

If, after reimporting all the packages and stuff, it’s still broken, your Unity is borked

[elfin sparrow]

I'll update you on the reinstall

[elfin sparrow]

SUCCESS!!! for some reason ???

[compact lily]

I guess clearing the package cache works

[elfin sparrow]

it's so weird, I tried reimporting and even making the new one

but only after makign a new one and deleting the library did it work (??)

unity is bonkers

[compact lily]

Programming :)

Good to know everything’s working now

[elfin sparrow]

thanks so much for all the help!

[bold warren]

#avatar-search-old

then no one have

[celest nexus]

so im confused, any avatars ive uploaded to quest with a very poor ranking will they still be viewable?
and I cant upload any future very poor ranked quest avatars at all anymore? or????

my avatars are now marked very poor because of vram usage 😅
low poly, low mats, but those damn textures. i cant stand blurry stuff

[nimble rock]

Heya, i modified a model in blender. but for some reason it now comes with a meterial with standard shaders and is grayed out. How can i remove this?

the unmodifed model is fine, blender just adds this apparently and i have no idea how to make it not

[nimble rock]

^ fixed

[elfin sparrow]

I made a new project and the same thing happened. figured for future reference you'd like to know that simply copying over the library from one that worked fixed the issue the second time!

[compact lily]

Just a quick warning: That might cause some slight issues, especially since the artefacts get overwritten

[elfin sparrow]

"if it works dont touch it"

is there a better way to do it then?

[compact lily]

Tbh unity would probably just rebuild the artefactdb if it notices something’s up,

But just copying over the PackageCache folder should work

[elfin sparrow]

got it! thanks :]

[compact lily]

But considering the issue came back up after you make another new project, I would probably say your Unity install is probably corrupted, and it might be worth looking into that

[elfin sparrow]

good point

I'll use the work around to finish up my project now since I'm on a time constraint then reinstall unity later, thanks for the advice!

[eager moon]

Looking for a gothic avatar if possible (:

[open blade]

anybody have any female avatars i could use by any chance ?

[charred obsidian]

yo where is buff kermit

[thin wing]

Im trying to make an avatar thats quest compatible but this pops up and im not sure why

[jagged sequoia]

that's not enough info to tell us anything

show a screenshot of your entire Unity

[thin wing]

Nvm my bad I figured it out 😅

[pastel storm]

Looking for a puppet avatar of Jenny Wakeman. If you have one, DM me or mention me.

[rugged oyster]

Can someone make me a sheriff avatar that is realistic and when you get the guns, it comes off of the vest

[charred obsidian]

Need Sesame Street or McDonald’s characters if anybody knows

Some secret spots 👉👈

[fresh talon]

Poop

💝

[wispy bone]

Quest does not support transparency, so the facial expressions with transparent parts, like the Blush on the face, will be displayed as a square with solid colour in Quest.

However, I have seen people doing it on Quest that looks almost as good as PC, how are they doing it?

[fresh talon]

Poop

[charred obsidian]

Anybody have a Voldemort Av?

[rugged oyster]

Can someone make me a realistic, Swat avatar DM me if you want to make me one

[tulip dagger]

they're probably abusing the fact the additive/multiplicative particle shaders are whitelisted for quest upload, it's not perfect, but it can give the illusion of transparency if done right.

[wispy bone]

Yes, I tried with the help of @ TheLeastMost#4472, however, we were unable to let the Material inside of the Particle to show up, only the Mesh was working in the particle.

However, we can create the entire blush effect using only particles and coloured emission of the particles.

Still, since I'm not good at that, I decided to use Gimp to just put the transparent blush texture onto a duplicate of the face texture, which I changed using animation during a certain hand gesture.

Post scriptum: I made a new blush effect myself on Gimp instead because for Rusk avatar I was using, the alpha layer's Blush looks like open wounds on the face when done this way.

Which means, and I'm completely speculating here, the author was either cheating or is a genius, because on that avatar the blush effect is exactly the same as on PC version, transparent and all that

[fathom verge]

vrchat quest shaders produce this effect. any other shader works fine.

[jagged sequoia]

It Vertex colors

[fathom verge]

aaah pulled sneaky on me

thanks

[round surge]

Pennywise

[stark orbit]

Hi, im new- can you please help me solve this, i have the same issue currently - -"

[round surge]

Pennywise

[fathom verge]

what exactly being synchronised between cross platformed avatars? i assumed they share parameters, but figured its not the case. how do i sync animator states then?

[exotic cave]

i made an avatar thats cross compatible , made everything the same but only the toggles show for pc and not for quest. Like only pc people see me changing my hair etc. any reason why

[earnest flame]

Your animator states are not specifically being synced, but as long as they are set up the same (or equivalent ) way on both the pc and quest version, they should stay in sync naturally. You want to make sure that your avatar parameters file is identical on the PC and Quest version - as that does sync (you can just copy/paste the params file over to your Quest project)

[fathom verge]

well i tried using exactly same parameters, just removed some that cant be used in quest. result is complete desync, one toggle on pc toggles something else on quest

i must say vrc documentation on this subject is horrible =_=

[zealous flame]

Hi there! Have anybody try "omnishade" shader plugin in quest avatars? Is a unity custom shader that looked pretty good in unity for mobile, but I wonder if it works well with quest.

[earnest flame]

keep them all, even the ones that you are not using on quest

and in the same order, same type

[fathom verge]

Thank you so much!

❤️

[boreal sleet]

hey, has anyone had an issue with booleans not synchronising between a PC avatar (the one I'm using) and a quest version of it (the one someone else is seeing)?

I had a boolean to switch an emote on/off. Same parameter name on PC/Android, everything identical.

On my side it showed up fine (even when exporting the quest version for windows and looking at it on my client), but on my friend's client the emote never activated

[tulip lantern]

I was trying to download the android/oculus version for unity and when I go to download it it says that failed to locate Unity exe

[pastel storm]

Hey, not sure if this is the correct channel for this but maybe it is. I am a standalone vrchat quest user and I am trying to figure out how to show anything but the fallback avatars when I join a world. When I join, I have to manually set everybody's avatar to their main one if they have it. I'm wondering if there is a way to automatically set everyone's avatar to their main one instead of always automatically showing the fallback. Maybe it's not possible on standalone, but I thought I would ask.

[mighty stratus]

I don’t think it’s possible, but that is a pretty good suggestion.

[pastel storm]

Yeah, I thought it might be possible, but I'm not sure

[pastel storm]

is there a way to hear avatar music anymore?

[flat meadow]

Hello, does any one here know how to make a prop grabbable on Quest? I used to have a set up that allowed me to do that but after upgrading SDK the set up no longer works for me. \

[nimble prairie]

It’s not allowed on quest

They got rid of it

[pastel storm]

oh okay

[jagged sequoia]

nope Avatar sound effects happening at all was a bug so the bug got patched

[pastel storm]

Is there a avatar that looks like this on Quest?

[split kernel]

Does anyone know how to make it so quest avatars hands dont go into claw hands. Im trying to make an avatar with asl but the hands break and become claw hands for quest side only. Ive already removed the masks on the all parts and left/right hand to none on the fx controller so its not a new sdk problem. When I use a gesture manager to check the hands in play mode it works fine but in game It doesn't work for quest people.

[pastel storm]

That's a bug that was introduced in the sdk update sometime around september/october

[deft saddle]

i just uploaded a avatar but i go on my quest and it wont show i see its in my acc on vrchat on the website but not in game

[tardy rose]

Hm sounds like u uploaded it for just pc ,orrrr the VRC servers are being lazy

:p

[bleak crater]

I have a question. Ever since the past recent updates, avatar worlds are crashing players a lot more. It’s specifically when a world has a lot of them, and once the images start loading in, it causes the game to crash on my quest. What’s that about?

[jagged sequoia]

Basically if the quest is out of ram it crashes so a big heavy world or lots of avatars could overwhelm the ram of the quest

[grand zealot]

i need a avatar created for me please i dont really have any money im a minor and if theres anything i can do to repay you u can do it i really wanna get this avatar created i drew some concepts and toggle concepts for the avatar

https://art.pixilart.com/sr219776bc51f92.png here is a quick concept of what i want

[jagged sequoia]

Nobody is going to make you a avatar for free

[grand zealot]

im hoping i can find someone though

[jagged sequoia]

And I'm trying to tell you nobody would do that as making avatars is a lot of Labor

https://vroid.com/en/studio

If you have a computer this tool could be used for making an avatar

[flat needle]

I used to have this avatar I remember it being public but idr the world anyone know it or have it?

[jagged sequoia]

The Avatar search channel would be a better place to look for where to find avatars

[flat needle]

o(╥﹏╥) I totally forgot about that channel sorry!

[jagged sequoia]

It ok

[fluid bobcat]

Does anyone have a yandere avi?

[bleak crater]

Ah, okay, thanks for the explanation.

[jagged lantern]

anyone know how to make blush's transparent for quest

have some heart emotes textures that have a weird background that im trying to make transparent since it leave a weird look

[jagged sequoia]

transparency Aren't available on quest avatars

[jagged lantern]

ah alright at this point its just a vrchat issue

[jagged sequoia]

Vrc doesn't allow transparencies on quest avatars because overlapping transparencies are really expensive for mobile hardware to render

[jagged lantern]

ah really now

guess the only work around is just making the whole eyes black at this point

[jagged sequoia]

for to cut out the heart shape in geometry

[pine sorrel]

You need a special tool for that. If the blush is a separate texture/material then use VRCHAT/MOBILE/PARTICLES/ (then one of the shades that's there)

But if the blush is one whole texture with the face connected. There's no help

[fickle meadow]

hey is there any good app that decimete avatars without looking kind of weird in the end

[jagged sequoia]

you could try dissolving Edge loops if you want to have a bit more control over the finished product

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWhuCxFXy9k

[fickle meadow]

ok thx

[jagged sequoia]

yeah that way you don't like break uvs

or could like eat more from the like the in-between parts of legs but keep the joints with reasonable polygon counts

an example of like a very low poly leg

[charred obsidian]

guys does anyone know where I can find Joe Biden avatar?

[honest sinew]

how do you make avatars on quest

[charred obsidian]

upload on unity

with creator companion

go download it

[honest sinew]

damn i cant then

[pastel storm]

i finished everything and after i go to upload it flashes a menu for a second then goes to this, but when i disable the blueprint it doesnt show the menu i saw before

[flat needle]

Is anyone willing to convert an avatar to quest for me?

[tulip lantern]

sure

[slender lodge]

Does anyone know a good comfy male avatar that has a quest file but also looks good?

[strange mesa]

hey guys I really need some help could anyone be willing to help get an Avatar completed on quest for me I can't do It when I atlas the materials together in blender it looks weird and when I try put it into unity to add the textures just above the eye it has a weird texture cause of rendering cutout but I can't use rendering cutout

I am just really confused and I don't have experience when it comes to Blender/Unity

could I send someone a file from VRoid or blender and could you sort all the stuff out/optimize it for me before 19days that's when my birthday is I'll be getting meta quest 2 whoever helps I would really appreciate it thanks

[crimson pilot]

So im trying to upload an avatar for quest, I understand this would be mark as a very poor. But how complex that avatar it would be difficult to get the polys down. But this is supposed to be a stop gap until I have time to properly decimate. I have uploaded much more unoptimized avatars in the past. But my issue as of right now the sdk has the upload button grayed out with out telling me why. I dont believe I hit a hard limit?

[orchid sand]

I’ve seen a couple of these on quest, would anyone happen to know how to make a literal clone of yourself in game that follows your exact movements, and still have it quest compatible, I know it’s possible because I’ve seen a few avatars with the feature. If anyone has knowledge on how to go about that please tell me.

[flat needle]

Uh kind of a dumb question anyone willing to upload a few free quest compatable avatars to my account

[jagged sequoia]

other people uploading to your account is actively against terms of service for vrchat

[flat needle]

o(╥﹏╥) ah i thought so but still thought to ask would there be a way to upload them without a pc or no?

[jagged sequoia]

a computer is required for uploading avatars

[flat needle]

I'm gonna go see if one of my computer s will handle it Be back in a few hours

[flat needle]

Haha it works! (ˊᗜˋ)ᵗᑋᵃᐢᵏ ᵞᵒᵘ

[strange mesa]

Hi could you help with my VRChat Avatar for quest every time I Extract the texture/material it looks like this could I send you the file and could you quickly sort this for me please

[jagged sequoia]

Glad to be of help

[jagged sequoia]

quest shaders cannot use transparencies

[strange mesa]

is there anyway to fix this?

[jagged sequoia]

nope there is no way to upload a quest Avatar that does use transparency so you'll have to modify the Avatar in blender to remove the offending transparencies

[odd spoke]

how to fix?

[celest nexus]

i like putting out bad work because of quests limitations and then getting questioned if my skills are real because "it looks bad"

im gonna make a canny post asking that vrchat please drop support for quest 1, majority of users are on quest 2 which is extremely superior to quest 1 and then limitations can be loosened again

[celest nexus]

nobody actually said that to me by the way, its just a fear of mine

[still spade]

done with avi

everything is free models

[thorn sky]

Is haptic on avatar touch supposed to work on quest 2? Others can get vibrations when i touch them but i'm not getting any.

[crimson pilot]

I have this issue where this black line only shows up in the quest version. Its the same texture just with the VRChat shader. Even unity standard shows it just fine.

[compact lily]

(Little did she know, the restrictions will not be loosened)
Mostly because vrchat is already at the limits of the Quest 2 and is really pushing Meta’s submission requirements (which is 72fps minimum for any app on their main store)

(Source: https://developer.oculus.com/resources/vrc-quest-performance-1/)

[celest nexus]

craaaaaaaaap

[jagged sequoia]

so basically don't expect the quest limit to change until like the quest 5

[celest nexus]

yeah

maybe it would be better if vrchat didnt have this goal of 20 people in a room at once running well

cuz if i was a quest user i would rather have loosened restrictions but max like 6 people in a room

oh well

[twin leaf]

Tupper couldnt have said it better himself

Why do people still push the XR2 chip?

[strange mesa]

hey guy's so I am making my first ever VRChat avatar for quest and I need help so In unity as you can see from this image the eyeliner is messed up could someone quickly fix this for free for me please.

[jagged sequoia]

because there's no Xr Focus chip more powerful than the XR2

[twin leaf]

At the end of the day it's still a phone processor

Doesn't matter how much ram is pumped in it's still very underdeveloped
Most certainly not to the point that games like vrchat/rec room want from it

[jagged sequoia]

basically you can't really put a Windows processor and graphics card in a headset without overheating it

[tardy rose]

Well unless a m1 is shoved in one of those things getting out of the scuffed graphics look is hard 4 quest

[twin leaf]

(ik unless it's water-cooled, it's probably not going to happen)

BUT MAN... I really wish we get more bulkier headsets
I don't understand why big tech nowadays makes devices smaller and just fucks up the chassis space for the fan more and more 😔

[jagged sequoia]

in this case it would be because it's on your head so the extra weight would be unpleasant

[tardy rose]

Yea

ARM is more efficient so it’s basically required for mobile VR

[tepid totem]

menhera ahaha

[devout delta]

Danny phantom avatar anyone?

[grand wadi]

someone help me I made an avi quest compatible and it worked but questies can only see naked with no clothes. how do i fix it pls??!

[willow portal]

Shawties avatar world it should be dunno if you got it yet but I have that and love her

[ebon glade]

anyone got nier automata avatars?

[gentle galleon]

Anyone got a good broly or Doomslayer

[shell nimbus]

I got a classic one that’s not bad

[hexed surge]

There is a booth utility to fix eyeliner for quest avatars created with vroid

If you still need it I can send you a video that explains it

You can test quest avatars as pc avatars

[tepid totem]

wdym

[long fern]

When i try to switch to Androidplayer it says its disabled, how do i fix that

[tardy rose]

u probbly dont have android part installed via unity

[long fern]

I have no idea what thatis

Im new to this

[long fern]

where do I install that?

[tardy rose]

in the unity hub

[long fern]

I use the VCC

[tardy rose]

it installs it when u try to use that

when installing the unity version it has an option to down load a thing that makes it android compat

[long fern]

So I have to reinstall unity?

[tardy rose]

uh i think theres a package manager in the hub that allows u to add the android compat

[long fern]

I don't think so, Unless I just don't know where it is

[tardy rose]

i said unity hub

it auto installs with the VCC or at least it should

[long fern]

am at the hub, so where do Install this

[tardy rose]

in the installs section

[long fern]

thats what I see

[tardy rose]

click the gear on it

[long fern]

ok

[tardy rose]

in the 2019.4.31f1 thing

[tardy rose]

huh

why isnt there a thing that says "add modules

'

[long fern]

idk

[tardy rose]

yea no idea how to help u if that isnt there

i guess look it up online

[crimson garden]

Hi! I posted a question about a fallback in avatars-3-help, but did not realize this channel existed. Moving it to here

Sorry to barge in! I've been having issues getting my rig recognized as a humanoid rig for a quest avatar, and I am failing to see any error messages or indication in the documentation as to what could be wrong. This is the message I am getting in the builder

My model is already configured as humanoid and I double-checked the bone assignments

[long fern]

Thank you for the help btw

[tardy rose]

oki

ur welc

[long fern]

btw I hopfully fixed it

[long fern]

is this what I needed?

[tardy rose]

yea teh android build support

[long fern]

new problem

[tardy rose]

oh

thats commin

does it not have a quest ver

that has all the fixes done

[long fern]

I made this model in vroid

[tardy rose]

oh

switch the shader on the materal to one of the mobile ones

and it will be fixed

[long fern]

Im about to explode with frustration

[tardy rose]

this how it works so :p

[long fern]

these right?

[tardy rose]

yea

[long fern]

that dident fix it

[tardy rose]

wat

:p

[long fern]

when I click select on the error it brings me to this

[tardy rose]

oh

[long fern]

i hope thats a good oh

[tardy rose]

well im not really the one to ask about avatar stuff cuz most of the stuff i can tell u are genral unity stuff not really, like avatar specisf stuff

[long fern]

this is confusing me

[tardy rose]

me too :p

idk best to ask some one who has messed with avatars longer than sylvia

[long fern]

@tardy rose I just got into vrtchat to try it out and is says its only mobile

[tardy rose]

Are you on pc?

[long fern]

on my vr

but why is it like that

[tardy rose]

wdym

[azure cloud]

so you gotta use the shaders in vrchat/mobile, sure I said, but somehow the particle section isn't allowed???

I just want to make sure, Does it normally say this?

nvm I am just not allowed to use anything

[flint forge]

Those two are meant for worlds.
Yes, the phrasing doesn't make sense, you aren't the only one this has confused.
It is dumb that it is still like this.

Think it was only those two though.

[azure cloud]

they should either add them as an avatar thing or remove them completely

[charred obsidian]

I'm looking for an avatar that comes with the money gun or money accessories. any ideas?

[undone pier]

What step did I not do here? The detection thing says Its ready but I get these bottom two errors when I try to upload...

Do I need to enable something else in the creator companion?

[undone pier]

Enabled quest switch in the creator, as well as avatar 3.0 manager, no change.
I changed all the FX, Emote, Menu layers to default, no change.

This is also a fresh project with only this avatar in it.

[fluid bobcat]

What exactly is not working

[undone pier]

When I click 'publish for andriod' I get thoes errors despite no flags in the SDK window

[fluid bobcat]

have you tried the blue print

[undone pier]

No idea what you mean

[pastel storm]

yall make some cool stuff ngl

[golden lodge]

i meight be missing something compleetly but ive got an issue where the particles are just refusing to show the texture associated with the material on quest. i found a picture of another instance of it that happend a year ~~ since i dont have a quest myself only an index~~. im researching on why its happening with it if its something i messed up.

if anyone has an idea on whats going on id apriciate some insight

[azure cloud]

I am pretty sure that particles aren't allowed for quest avatars, but who knows, I am not an expert to say this

[oblique storm]

particles are allowed on quest, but you can't have any transparency unless you are making a world because transparency is very demanding on the quest

and even then, you can only have cutout transparency

[golden lodge]

The wierd thing it's going transparent but its just ignoring the texture compleetly

On the avatar particles

[pastel storm]

Does anyone have a model I can have for free

[long forge]

Does anyone have a Kirito model I can use?

[sharp dew]

Anyone know of any chubby/fat avatars/worlds

[fluid elbow]

anyone able to help me with this error code?

[golden lodge]

you got that when trying to upload?

[fluid elbow]

its was an outdated version of android sdk i had

[thick adder]

Avatar packages normally have the creators testing blueprint id. In order for you to sucessfully upload it you have to generate a new one for your account.

Find pipeline manager and click detach on the id then hit build and publish. It will make a new blueprint id that is for your account.

[merry haven]

hii, can anyone help me ? i am trying to upload my quest compatible avatar into vrchat, but everytime i publish it it says that its only for PC only, i am trying to figure it out how to make it to be available on quest too, but its beyond my IQ... CAN ANYONE HELP ME ? <33

[tardy rose]

u have to switch it to android upload to do that

(Cuz the quest runs on android)

[merry haven]

cant "click on it" :c

[tardy rose]

oh

U probably don’t have the android thing installed

Via the Unity hub

[merry haven]

i doo

[tardy rose]

Huh

Maybe try making a new project and trying to upload it via there

[merry haven]

alrr

[tardy rose]

And move over all the files over there

[tardy rose]

Wut

What does “alrr” mean

[merry haven]

alright

""

lol

[tardy rose]

oh

?

[merry haven]

@tardy rose still cant do itt :ccc

[azure cloud]

Check the errors

[balmy mason]

Does anyone know how I can upload avatars to quest?

Like avatars I can get on gumroad. 😭 I’m very new to all of this sorry

Oh and also would I need a PC to do so?

Can I do it on a 2022 MacBook Pro?

[tardy rose]

Yea people have done it

It’s just more annoying cuz there’s no creator companion on Mac

[azure cloud]

Do contact toggles not work for quest?

[tardy rose]

what’s a contact toggle

[azure cloud]

Like, when you have an item and you need to press a button to hold it and not toggle it from a menu

[tardy rose]

oh

[sinful cliff]

anyone know where i could find this avatar or anything similar?

[pastel storm]

idk what exactly this means

[azure cloud]

Just click auto fix if possible, if not, sadly I am not much of help because I am also new to this

[woeful cargo]

How do I make it so when I toggle a toggle on PC it also activates a toggle on quest?

[peak lake]

Your parameter lists need to be exactly the same on avatars on both platforms.

[woeful cargo]

As in the perameter name?

[stiff bough]

Edit-- posted in the wrong channel.

[vapid mica]

Bruh

[true echo]

is this not an issue with the avatar's file size?

[vapid mica]

Yes

[true echo]

yes it is an issue with file size?

in that case you'll have to use lower resolution textures

[vapid mica]

the help menu itself suggested me to merge the textures

[rustic glacier]

Can anyone explain or send a source on how to edit quest avatars?

[serene elm]

I prefer catgirls with black hair mostly and i need some phybones in the hait as well as in the boobs

[fluid bobcat]

hm have you tried Nony?

Some of Mai’s Avis can fit that too

[serene elm]

I use Mai atm haha

[fluid bobcat]

Hmmm, send me pictures of similar Avis

[serene elm]

i can later be at work atm

[fluid bobcat]

Alright!

[pastel storm]

Who has a legend of Zelda avatar

[fallow turret]

Has it anyone tried to made an avatar in vroid to export it to vrchat? since im in quest is really confusing lol

[vapid mica]

I have one

Well you can see it in my profile picture

[pastel storm]

i uploaded the avatar to quest and pc, but it's saying it's not quest compatible on vrchat?

[fluid bobcat]

Okay, did you switch it to android in Unity?

[fluid bobcat]

I’ve uploaded an avi but not vroid I’m sorry

[pastel storm]

yes

[fluid bobcat]

Strange try going to #avatar-help

[drifting narwhal]

Looking for quest avatar worlds anyone know of good ones? I tried to find a bunch but the hair was always stiff 🥲

[muted surge]

I’ve got some good ones

[drifting narwhal]

[muted surge]

Yeah do you wanna add me so I can dm them to you?

[ebon urchin]

[ebon urchin]

So probably around 11:25/11:30ish

[pastel storm]

Anyone know any Avis with a huge septum ring

That’s not a furry

[pastel storm]

Is there a good way to do emissive textures on Quest?
I have a hat, it has a symbol on it. I want it to glow, but I also want the whole cap to glow.
some quest worlds are bad with lighting, you can turn black in them with Toon Lit. With standard lite...
By adding the albedo/main texture into emissive slot, it's possible to control the lighting by setting hdr to gray (so it's medium bright everywhere).
but then I can't use the emissive slot to light up the symbol. how I'm fixing this is cutting the symbol and every other emissive part out, adding it to a new material that will use a "real" emissive texture in the texture slot. that way, I can control the average light of the whole avi and still make emissive parts glow.
But is there a bette way? maybe some specific proprrety in the animator?

[pastel storm]

Does anyone know a quest world that has tall e-girl avis in it? Kinda like dommy mommy avis-

[peak wadi]

This is gonna be hell to get on quest lol

Nvm

Amazing.

[wintry plover]

Hey buddy

Am a professional VRchat Avatar model and commissioned

[pastel storm]

Ban

[raw anvil]

Who’s trying to trade avatar (only private girls avis)

[nimble prairie]

You are not supposed to trade Avis, especially if they’re private

I’d they’re private do not give them out they are private for a reason

[raw anvil]

Ohh I didn’t know 😭

[nimble prairie]

If you have private avatars unfavourite them, private avatars are meant to be commissioned/bought etc.

[peak wadi]

Most likely they’re nsfw ones and the creator and get banned if they’re spread around easily

[nimble prairie]

Still shouldn’t give them out

[peak wadi]

I agree.

[novel shard]

I am getting this error when i am trying to open my quest compattible avatar via vrchat creator companion

[bright canopy]

Guys, how do I make skins for the quest because in the quest I am a friend user

see is my account in steam but don't care

[jagged sequoia]

that would require using a computer to upload avatars

[bright canopy]

ok i have a pc

[red timber]

Got unity?

[bright canopy]

yes a have t

too

[red timber]

Using the VCC?

[bright canopy]

yea

see

1minute

[red timber]

Okay so you wanna convert the avatar to quest?

Or..

@bright canopy

[bright canopy]

1minute

i open

[red timber]

Kk

[bright canopy]

My pc is colorblind but it doesn't turn on because I accidentally activated this mode;-;

[red timber]

Okay

[bright canopy]

and now

what do i do to load

[red timber]

Okay

For uploading to quest you need to have one avatar in the scene enabled

Just so the SDK knows what you're working with

@bright canopy

[bright canopy]

ojk

ok

where else is this because i'm new to unity

[red timber]

Oh

That helps

Do you know your basic ways around the Unity UI?

[bright canopy]

so I have an active avatar calm down and I'll see it here

[red timber]

I am calm

[bright canopy]

see

[red timber]

Okay

So

The goal you want to achieve is quest avatar.

Just making sure

[bright canopy]

ok

[red timber]

That your goal?

[bright canopy]

yes

[red timber]

Okay

Do you know what materials are?

[bright canopy]

yes

[red timber]

Okay

[bright canopy]

no math

[red timber]

Find the materials for the avatar, duplicate them and set the shader to VRChat > Mobile > (whichever shader you desire)

[bright canopy]

ok

[red timber]

Apply it to the quest avatar you're uploading

And then upload to Android

[jagged sequoia]

https://github.com/kurotu/VRCQuestTools

[red timber]

That helps too

[jagged sequoia]

this tool can automate the material swapping stuff

[red timber]

Thanks Rainwolf

[bright canopy]

man I don't remember where it was because I get too lost could you send me a picture

[red timber]

I am not on my pc

[bright canopy]

oh

I'll look
]

[red timber]

Okay

[bright canopy]

bruhh i math idiot omg bruh

hey could you send me which opinion i for

in?

[red timber]

Umm

[red timber]

@bright canopy I would use this

It'll be way easier

[bright canopy]

ok i have too

[bright canopy]

hey

I am not able to drag the character to convert

[jagged sequoia]

like what exactly happens when you try to drag the avatar?

[bright canopy]

I don't know how to explain it, can I send you a picture?

[jagged sequoia]

sure we could see if the picture helps?

[bright canopy]

I'll check here and if it doesn't work I'll come back here ok??

[jagged sequoia]

ok

try clicking on this and it should pull up a list of stuff with Avatar descriptors?

[bright canopy]

ok

see

i no cant

[jagged sequoia]

question do you actually have a functional Avatar in the first place?

[bright canopy]

I don't know how I see

[jagged sequoia]

like when you click on the Avatar in the hierarchy does it have a avatar descriptor

[bright canopy]

ok

I have a quest and pc skin which one is it?

[jagged sequoia]

does either of them have a avatar descriptor when you click on them in the hierarchy

and looking on the inspector tab

[bright canopy]

ok

[pastel storm]

Does anyone do commissions?

[peak wadi]

For?

[pastel storm]

A avatar

Or drawing

[peak wadi]

I can do a spacemarine.

With kill particles

Can’t give you any shields or anything as quest doesn’t allow colliders

[pastel storm]

Damn

Alright sounds good

[peak wadi]

If you were pc vr I would be able to give you a shield that blocks particles and bullets

[rocky prawn]

They’ll say they’ll make you an Avi you pay them and they don’t do anything

[peak wadi]

Ew

[pastel storm]

Has anybody made an avatar of the "dancing banana" or there's one already in existence?

If anybody hasn't and want more info on this charecter, dm me

[nimble prairie]

Wouldn’t recommend asking in here a lot of ppl will try to scam ya, I’d recommend vrc traders if you’d like the link to that server

[wintry plover]

Hi buddy

[wintry plover]

I can help you with that and not here for scam I do my job perfect

[spark flame]

Yeah could you send me that link

[peak pendant]

https://darkknight13.gumroad.com/l/ainwsi

[twilit orchid]

how do i fix?

[peak pendant]

On your avatar click it so it lights up blue, go to pipeline manager and detach the blueprint

[twilit orchid]

ok thank you so much

[peak pendant]

Your welcome 👍🏻🙂

[rugged oyster]

Can someone make me a realistic avatar for free

[jagged sequoia]

Nobody is going to make you an avatar for free

[red timber]

Best place to ask is in the VRCTraders server

[thick flame]

This is going to be a dumb question where do I go to open the physbones to remove them I did it before and forgot how to get there 🤦‍♀️ can someone help with that and tell me where to go

[peak pendant]

Open the armature and find the body parts that has them, for example if the avatar has a tail with physbones go to the armature called tail and click it, in the inspector you will see the physbones, you just press the 3 dots at the top right of the physbones in the inspecter and press remove component

[thick flame]

Thank you

[wintry plover]

Hi buddy

[pastel storm]

I need help, so I'm trying to upload a quest avatar and it's saying that it's to large for me to upload how to I reduce the number or size of assets?

[rain dune]

Anybody have a re4 remake Leon?

[bleak patio]

Is there anyone thag wanna make an avatar for me i cant make any please

[jagged sequoia]

Nobody is going to make you an avatar for free

[bleak patio]

I only have 5 cents bro🥲

[jagged sequoia]

Still no avatar for you

[oblique storm]

This stuff costs money. Even for experienced people and professionals, it takes many hours to create a full 3D, rigged character asset

[gloomy urchin]

hey guys how can i hide the black, there's no transparency for shaders

[oblique storm]

You would need to manually cut them out in blender

[tiny nimbus]

Does anyone know how to make an invisible material for quest??? Not a shader or animation like an actual material?

If so please dm how to

[pine gate]

In order to upload Quest avatar, I need to have a PC version of that avatar and then upload the Quest version by attach blueprint id from that PC version. Am I doing it right?

I have a question for that, what if I upload quest avatar but use other PC avatar blueprint ?

[tiny nimbus]

Then it would update to be the current avatar you are working on, same thing with worlds

[gloomy urchin]

i'm having the exact same issue!

apparently it's impossible and you have to manually cut the transparent parts out of the mesh

[eternal relic]

Anyone know of any worlds that have female avatars like Nonys and Mais

[pastel storm]

If anyone has the bunny furry in this photo pls dm me, had it long time ago tryin to get it back

Anyone know where I can find more cute furry Avis? Dosent matter which species:)

[inland elm]

Anyone know a place with avatars in suits ?

[light crown]

Anyone here take commissions?

[nimble prairie]

Wouldn’t ask that in here you’ll get people trying to scam

[light crown]

I’m just stumped dude

[nimble prairie]

If you go to the community servers channel and scroll up there’s a server called vrc traders or something

I recommend joining that

[light crown]

Thanks

[small lance]

[fluid bobcat]

I might

[halcyon spear]

Oh?

[red timber]

It's a little learning curve

[split mist]

[fading crest]

No idea where people get them

if you do know then ping me or dm me, thanks

[jagged sequoia]

There is no transparency available whatsoever on quest avatars

[lapis karma]

yeee i found that out, ended up just editing it

also optimized it by merging the meshes, lowered material count down to 2 as well and upscaled the textures to 2k and added a normal map

[heavy kestrel]

Someone give me a jin roh wolf brigade avitar

[jagged sequoia]

Glad you were able to figure it out

[lapis karma]

yee

[bright canopy]

guys

[somber wagon]

Anyone have an avatar similar to this? It got deleted as I was using it as my main avatar 😭

[nimble prairie]

Model wasn’t supposed to be public that’s why it was taken down. I don’t have the link but if you want that model you’d have to pay for it

[somber wagon]

Ohhhh ok, do you know anyone who has the link?

[nimble prairie]

Nah but if you ask for the link in #avatar-search-old someone might have it

[somber wagon]

Oh okay, thank you

[silk oracle]

anyone know some matching girl avis

[nimble prairie]

I’d ask in #avatar-search-old

[primal basalt]

Taking a picture of a poiyomi material and using it on a matcap lit mobile shader is pretty pog.

[jagged sequoia]

Cool

[covert robin]

@eternal cove very dope of you keep It up (nice artwork aswell

[dim granite]

Does anybody know where I could get a WolfWoof (from Trigun Stampede) from? Is there any worlds that have made him and have him in it? I know that Vash has been made but I want wolfwood lmao

[novel radish]

can quest compatable avatars handle emotes? {with audio? }

[jagged sequoia]

no sound effects on quest avatars

[magic scaffold]

Does anyone have pc and quest outfits?

[magic ravine]

Does any one know to do a every good in making avatar?

Like this?

[primal rivet]

actually there is sort of, you can use the shader VRChat/Particles/Multiply, while on quest it doesn't actually use the texture properly, it will use vertex colours, so you can sort of have transparency on quest
(You can't use alpha blended as the SDK won't let you upload with it, and Additive just becomes Multiply in game for some reason...)

[primal rivet]

I know it has been a couple of weeks since you asked but this avatar is "Berry Bun" by "Sylveous", you can get it from "Sylv's avatar world"

[young pecan]

does anyone have a brush skin file i can download

[jagged sequoia]

https://booth.pm/en/items/2015781

[young pecan]

wait can someone buy it so and put it in here so i can make a brush pleasee

if you can i will make you a brush or somthing i really want it

?

[jagged sequoia]

if you don't buy it yourself no brush for you

[young pecan]

come on

[jagged sequoia]

it's against the rules making public brush avatars if you're not the original creator

[young pecan]

im not making it public i just wann create them and make them my own

i have made 1 brush of my own

and i wanna make more so please man

[young pecan]

its not hacks bro its unity where you can create avatars

[jagged sequoia]

Distributing the files for free would constitute piracy

[young pecan]

and im not riping anything i am making something completely different

[jagged sequoia]

there is no way for you to acquire a brush that doesn't break terms of service outside of paying 20 bucks for the files on booth.pm

[young pecan]

well a have 1 in my paypal can i give you that thats all i have

thatsnot breaking the rules if im giving you money

please man this is all i have i wanna do this so bad

[jagged sequoia]

if you had enough money for that you could just buy it yourself

and $1 isn't enough for anything

[young pecan]

Bro why can you do this one solid for me

[jagged sequoia]

because I don't want to break terms of service and you're just a random entitled stranger

[young pecan]

wow

how do you put chlothes on the skin

[jagged sequoia]

in blender

[stray obsidian]

yea you cant do that

[pastel storm]

Yoo does anyone know where i can find the creator of this avi/and/or the files for this avi? It was in a random public world and I used it as my main avatar for almost 2 years. I miss her a lot and would like to get the files if I can. (The McDonald's hat and mic are not part of the avi)

Full image:

[random badge]

u a real one 😘

[mighty barn]

Yep

[dim granite]

Does anybody know if anybody has made any Wolfwood avatars (from Trigun)

[jagged sequoia]

Cool

[young pecan]

How do you put stuff on your avatars

[jagged sequoia]

using blender or Unity

basically if you don't have access to the 3D model files of an avatar
you can't do anything to it that the original Creator hasn't already done

[young pecan]

Ok

[pastel storm]

Does anyone know where I can find this avatar

[nimble prairie]

Ask in #avatar-search-old

[hushed ibex]

hello need help with that leggings, any ideas pls?

[cosmic dagger]

I am looking for an avi, and I wanted to see if anyone has it and if I can clone it

https://huggymee.gumroad.com/l/lovebomb

[nimble prairie]

Pretty sure it’s not supposed to be public so if you want it you’ll have to buy it

[sick perch]

Does anyone have a better Friday Night Funkin Boyfriend Avatar?

[solar canyon]

Can Any one tell me where i can buy this or get it

[jovial plover]

Ive bought PinoQuest but when i put my head down the body gliches to the floor, ive seen characters that still stand on the ground. Does anyone know how to fix this or is this just the avatar that im using

[pastel storm]

did you hit Re-Center on the app?? sometimes when you tap it it should work

[pastel storm]

Yuriya Avatars world is where that model is from....she is quest compatable too

[uneven gate]

Is there anyway to make your avatar download size go over 10mb now?

[jagged sequoia]

nope 10 MB is still the hard cap for Quest avatars

[uneven gate]

You used to be able to higher the download size to over 200 but seems they changed it in the last update

[jagged sequoia]

the sdk doesn't let you upload Quest avatars above 10 MB so that was just a menu bug

[jovial idol]

My game keepe crashing >_< im tired Of all these crashers

[nimble prairie]

Half the time it isn’t even crashers. It’s just quest sucks 😂

[high zephyr]

doing uploads for vrc+ (no conversions hoes)

[solar hornet]

I don’t care bout the avatar I care bout the map

[robust whale]

sorry, I know this is old, but if you find someone willing to buy it for you then what you'll have to do is have them send you the money for it and then you can buy it yourself with that money. YOU have to buy it yourself.

[pastel storm]

its tda u cant get it anymore

[jade granite]

Okay I'm officially having adverse effect from not properly taking medication which is so serious that I decided to make this.

Will finish the animation controller tomorrow to add Blender and unity icons

I saw somebody wearing the same suit in manga 6 years ago LOL

[pastel storm]

Is anyone’s commissions open

[nimble prairie]

Wouldn’t recommend asking in here will get lots of scammers

[timber juniper]

If you are afraid of scammers maybe just dealing to pay half to start making the avatar and you give the other half when the avatar creator is done and you using the avatar

[silent steppe]

First half 500$ pls 😎😂

[tight veldt]

comissions open payment after my work so u know your not getting scammed :)

[waxen quartz]

If anyone has or knows a smol male neko avi with a decent amount of customization dm me, thx in advance :D

(Not lookin to buy one)

[vernal spire]

Any nsfw

[nimble prairie]

If you asked for that it’ll literally get you banned.

[muted pumice]

Mixing matcaps and PBR can go a long way when shaders are so limited

[pastel storm]

I doubt this but do some make free avatars or is it mainly paid avatars

[nimble prairie]

No one does

[solar harness]

Craig

[pastel storm]

Figured

[hot pebble]

I mean

You can find some for free

Just dont expect anything decent lul

[zealous spindle]

Idk if anyone has but I've been looking for an anime style chubby woman, I've noticed that the only ones I've seen are skinny

Also muscular woman are rare to find as well, wouldn't mind that either

[silk cosmos]

Hello, I'm wondering if someone could tell me/give me a good idea of where I could get a John Wick/Keanu Reeves avatar (Not behind a pay-wall). Thank you.

[nimble prairie]

Have you tried avatar search worlds already?

[silk cosmos]

yes, not much comes up. I've looked through the worlds and didn't find any of the avatars I'm looking for.

[nimble prairie]

Ah I see

[silk cosmos]

I went and searched again to see if I missed anything and found Prismic's Avatar Search where I found an avatar that would be ok for me.

[nimble prairie]

Yes prismics avatar search is a pretty good world!

[hot pebble]

Theres only 2 i believe

That one and dullish

[nimble prairie]

There’s another one

I’ve seen it before just forget the name

[coral ginkgo]

Dullish, Avatar Search (used to be Better Avatar Search), and Prismic's Avatar Search are the three I'm aware of, though Avatar Search isn't quest compatible.

[delicate finch]

Are you the real dev?

[coral ginkgo]

Of Prismic's? Yeah.

[frosty zephyr]

Does anyone know where i could find a Bloater avatar from The last of us?

[hot pebble]

#avatar-search-old

[delicate finch]

didnt get yo reply. damn well 1, its honor. not every day i meet someone important. and 2, great work on 1 mil avatars!

[coral ginkgo]

I don't think I'm that important haha 😅 but thank you for your kind words and the congratulations ^_^

[nimble prairie]

If ur asking for free no one will do it for free

[pastel storm]

Id do it for free i have the time

[delicate finch]

Lets be honest, your pretty important.

[nimble prairie]

Well people shouldn’t use them in public but there is the times where people wear them, I’d stay away from any club worlds, black cat, just B club stuff like that

[coral ginkgo]

Glad it's been helpful 🙂

[coral ginkgo]

Several people were actually lol. Both the other avatar search worlds predate mine by a good bit, and seeing those is actually what inspired me to make mine. So major credit where it's due to them.

[hot pebble]

Question
How do you get the avatars to your database/world? (Just wondering xd)

[tawdry ridge]

Hey, so I already uploaded my avatar for PC and now I'm trying to do it for quest but when I go to upload it, it won't allow me to and I can't figure it out if anyone would possibly help me fix this I would greatly appreciate it.

[coral ginkgo]

Remote string loading api that came out in late February. I had been waiting for it to release so I could make the world, after which it took me about 4 days to get the first version up:
https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/string-loading

[hot pebble]

Oh owo

[winged summit]

There's probably not anyone who's going to actually say yes to this but can someone make me a avatar for free

[iron epoch]

Yes

[jagged sequoia]

yeah that is a bit of an unreasonable request

[rugged oyster]

Can someone make my a free avatar for my YouTube channel

[nimble prairie]

I’ve seen you ask this a million times already and i already told you no one will make you a free avatar it’s very doubtful

[rugged oyster]

Can someone make my a free avatar for my YouTube channel

[abstract swallow]

the entire time you've been on this server you've been asking the same thing

in the time span that you've been asking, you could have actually made one yourself did you know? @rugged oyster

I'll try to spell it out for you.
you can make character models for easy nowadays (or find them)

makehuman (creator) - http://www.makehumancommunity.org/content/downloads.html
turbosquid (place where you can find stuff) - https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-model/free/character
reallusion character creator (creator) - https://www.reallusion.com/character-creator/download.html

important to always bring up but you can use blender to create them from complete scratch, or to take the models from those places and modify them as you see fit and putting all the peices together
https://www.blender.org/

and VRC tutorials for avatar creation and uploading that go over taking the model that you have and getting it working within VRC.
rabbi32 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRwnXnQ5kYs&pp=ygUXdnJjaGF0IGF2YXRhciB0dXRvcmlhbHM%3D
sippbox - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTlZXDJueks&list=PLt8qiEFqNHFkPqpKLnVRx-G78mGvjPbFt
aggrotard - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o34v2leOlkw&pp=ygUXdnJjaGF0IGF2YXRhciB0dXRvcmlhbHM%3D
and way more if you search...

if your still a bit confused the process goes like the following... and I'll use you asking for a sheriff avatar that you were asking about 2 months ago as an example. But say you wanted to create a sherif avatar

1. use makehuman to make the character as you see fit, with the features that you want. get it as far as you can and then export it.
2. for outfits or extra accessories that makehuman may not have (like particular clothing, or items like hats and glasses or holsters with weapons) you can go on turbosquid (or other places) and get those models and put them on to your existing character. so for example if you want a sheriff hat you can find models of it on turbosquid, download it and stick it on your character model using blender.
3. once your avatar character model is complete all you need to do is follow those youtube tutorials I listed (or find others on youtube) which will guide you through the process

@rugged oyster

so instead of relying on the good wills of some of the people here or wherever else your asking (and from the looks of it you've been asking for a while so seems you haven't had much luck) you can learn how to do it yourself, and the beauty from then on is once you learn it yourself you won't have to be asking others to do it for you @rugged oyster

[abstract swallow]

would be nice to know whenever you can if you've read what I've said @rugged oyster, I don't (and I'm sure others here) want to see you asking again for people to make things for you even after I've pointed you in a direction to where you can do it yourself easily

[karmic pelican]

How do I get this outfit?!? I NEED IT NOW

[pastel storm]

I can give it to you tomarrow judt privet DM me so i can get it to you

[strong hatch]

Hi I am an expert 2d artist with enough experience in the field blindly contact me for any of your project

I'm very new to porting models to quest (moreso uploading models at all), what is the best way to do emissions on Quest? Should I use standard lite?

[pastel storm]

@karmic pelican ^

[wise pond]

Anybody have any idea what may be causing this:

This is a fallback avatar; on PC it looks fine. On Quest, this happens.

It's acting like the vertices are incorrectly weighted, except... it's the same exact model on both platforms.

Same mesh, same armature, same everything.

It's not a blendshape issue in testing, and it works in the avatar emulator as well.

Reuploading fixed it, but I'd like to know what might have happened for future occurences.

[hot pebble]

Standard lite is the only shader on quest that can use emissions

[fallow haven]

[whole oasis]

Picture taken on PC by my friend but huzzah, I need to add effects to this when I can. Looks nice on quest too

Cloth toggles, accessory and weapon toggles. Need to add firing animations and maybe a gesture for the swords on the left thigh like I have done for a katana on another one

gesture grabs was a recent one, clothing toggles too

so fist gets the sword, open hand puts it away when it's around the sheath

Thank you, I had an awesome teacher

Even though my memory is fucking horrendous

GGLC is a must

I haven't tried mat sliders yet but to be fair I use my avis for DnD type stuff and other such activities

They just so happen to look nice for other things too c:

Oooo, looks cool c:

Aye I see, but hell it's good quality so I mean

Pop off c:

I see, I know booth has some nice stuff but varies

Ah I see, stuff like that I'd see me screwin at lmao

Ah fair enough, best to just talk to peeps imo. I find it better if people just sit me 1-1

[radiant pecan]

How do I upload an avatar from gumroad to my quest? Pls im so lost.

[hot pebble]

You need to download unity hub on a computer and get the supported unity version VRChat uses and get the android components
Download VCC and make a new avatar project
Import your avatar and work on making it quest compatible if it isnt already
Go to VRChat SDK on the top of the screen -> SDK panel -> login and in one of the tabs you can see what your logged in, which avatars gameobjects are in the scene currently (or any game object with the avatar descriptor lul)
Make sure to switch build targets to android and any errors on the SDK panel you want to fix em

[radiant pecan]

Thank you so much!!

[undone pier]

Any way we can fix this lying to us?

Its a bit utterly impossible to troubleshoot when all my tools say its fine

But it just fucking... doesn't work

[undone pier]

I don't know what to do. I went so far as to start completely over.

As you can see it's lying to me on the left side, so I have no idea what to correct.

Because it says everyhting is fine until I click publish

This makes troubleshooting it horrific and agonizing.

[hot pebble]

@undone pier
From what i can see
A tool you're using is compiling errors

AndroidExtensionTools

Whatever that is

[undone pier]

Why would that be built into the creator compainion then? -.-

[hot pebble]

Uh
That isnt?
Only ones ik that are for avatars is Gesture Manger and the VRLabs FX stuff

[undone pier]

Removed everything except the bare bones. AHHHH no change

[hot pebble]

I can't really see but i think what I'm seeing is that the prefab isnt being found as aswell?

Cant tell what that third error is

[hot pebble]

The wut

[undone pier]

Putting all expressions and menus to default, no change

[hot pebble]

Uhm

Thats the avatar descriptor

That has nothing to do with your errors

Lul

[undone pier]

I also removed everything in the compaintion app except the two you absolutly need

also no change

I have no clue what these errors mean. I went so far as to google them to no effect

I found someone on reddit asking the same thing with no answer

The bottom error is telling me something isn't there.

FileNotFoundException: C:/Users/pawgp/AppData/Local/Temp/DefaultCompany/FUCKINGWORKYOUPIECEOFSHIT/prefab-id-v1_avtr_f58d5249-cd17-4498-ac84-96aeb4f0ae18_1360523631.prefab.unity3d does not exist

[hot pebble]

That name

xd

[undone pier]

and I'm not sure how to make it not look for it or how to make it see its there

XD well this is attempt number 6 thousand or so

[hot pebble]

Unpack the prefab
Thats my suggestion anyways
And if your avatars have missing scripts
Delete em

[undone pier]

Both 'Unpack' then going back and doing 'unpack completely' had no effect

Its no wonder so many avatars arn't Quest compatible. Its a horrible, painful, terrible ordeal.

[hot pebble]

Lul

For me its ez

Making a PC only avatar to Quest

Although it will be awfully unoptimzed tho

[undone pier]

I mean it tells me its fine, as you can see the the false message on the right

[hot pebble]

What false message?

[simple peak]

think he means this

[undone pier]

Yep. It gives me nothing here to fix

Its like that damn Patrick meme

[hot pebble]

Uhm
Now im more confused lul

Your console is compiling errors on your project

Your avatar seems to be fine

[undone pier]

so what do I do?

I went as far as to start completly over, redownloading the base from the vrcarena and making a new project

[hot pebble]

Export the scene and make a new project?

Idk why you need to start over...

[simple peak]

oh so its optimized but hes just getting typical prefab error

in that case i usually begin organizing my files and deleting sus stuff that doesnt contribute to the avi until it works

some of ur scripts r just bugged

if u do wana start over then i suggest viewing all the files before import and unchecking the sus ones

[undone pier]

I tried that as well to no change in the error

[undone pier]

I havn't a clue what does and doesn't. I bought the base off line and have imported litterally nothing else into it

OK UPDATE! When I click publish it randomly makes a copy of the avatar in the assets folder!

What does that mean?

[hot pebble]

Bruh

@undone pier

Detach blueprint ID

[undone pier]

No change

ok so thus far I've ruled out 89546095678943763590 things I can try that all had no effect

[simple peak]

ye thats normal when u get that error

[simple peak]

message the author u bought it from then and tell them ur getting prefab error, they will know what that means

[undone pier]

Both removing and detaching do not change the error

ok

[simple peak]

ye its a dif issue

anyways after u message them they might mention an outdated tool that they accidentally exported or something

which they would fix or tell u the file name to delete

also make sure to double check and read the entire purchase page for possibly extra details bout it

cuz i seen some that say vrlabs broke and to delete its file

as just an example

[undone pier]

I found the creator's discord and asked there.

Now I just have to cross my fingers and toes and eat a bowl of lucky charms and dance with a horse shoe and roll around in four leaf clovers praying and hoping he doesn't look at it error and have no idea what it is.

[hot pebble]

xwx

[thick adder]

If you were using vrchat creator companion, did you import a vrcsdk in also? Because the vcc automatically adds it but if it has 2 sdks the thing breaks and just makes prefab copies.

[hot pebble]

Uhm
VCC removes old SDK from the project then adds new one xd

[noble umbra]

how do you make an avatar be 10mb or less? (im new to making avatars bruh)

[hot pebble]

Compressing the textures of the avatar is one way of doing it

[fleet verge]

What would be the best way of adding over a texture (example adding flames on a sleeve) idk any websites or apps to use for that type of image editing

[thick adder]

Last time I used it with an avatar that has the vrcsdk in it, it broke the project

[hot pebble]

Welp xd

[thick adder]

yeah idk

[thick adder]

you can also delete objects or materials that you feel like you don't use much either.

[pliant yarrow]

Also reducing the size of your texture sizes.

[noble umbra]

How do you do that?

[pliant yarrow]

When you click on a texture you'll see the textures settings in the inspector. You can change the texture size (defaults at 2048) there and enable a tick box at the bottom called crunch compression.

[noble umbra]

Ohhhhhh. I see now, thanks!

[pliant yarrow]

^w^

[pliant yarrow]

One last thing! Crunching textures will NOT affect texture memory as it will decompress on load. But reducing the texture size will.

[noble umbra]

Welco. I've been struggling a lot on just trying to reduce the file size of the avatar. And it worked, thanks bud

[abstract swallow]

disabling mip maps is another way as well

using mesh compression will too (through the obvious mesh compression option in the mesh import settings, and vertex compression options through the player settings)

[finite vine]

So I uploaded a avi I made quest compatible and now the skin ìs invisible how do I fix it

[fleet verge]

how do i add physbones to a plushie i added?

[copper rune]

Vrchat's Quest Avatar Limitations are a dumb thing.

[jagged sequoia]

it's a mobile processor it can't handle more

[hot pebble]

You want to crash ever 5 seconds?

its there for a reason smh

[tulip dagger]

skill issue

[turbid quail]

anyone know how to make avatars I have a request

[jagged sequoia]

it's unlikely anyone would make an avatar for you for free

[turbid quail]

I know.

[deft saddle]

Agreed

[noble umbra]

when it comes to avatar oackages, do i just publish? cus i got one from someone and the package keeps telling me to minimize the file for quest

[cold solstice]

@turbid quail Check your inbox

[split junco]

does anyone know where i can get a comic riddler avatar

[hot pebble]

#avatar-search-old

[supple ore]

why are the quest limits so low on VRchat? the quest can’t run much but it can run more than the avatar limits VRchat sets

[hot pebble]

Huh

[flint forge]

Not really, remember, the limit is for an instance full of people.

[supple ore]

but the quest can run an entire physics based environment with several physics based NPCs

yet some people with no rigidbody physics at all is too much?

[hot pebble]

@supple ore
Have you even played VRChat on quest???

It is horrible

Lack of FPS and random lag spikes even tho you're in a world you get 60 FPS in

Most worlds 15-30 FPS most

Due to how awfully unoptimazed the base game itself is and how no one can optimize their avatars and worlds

[hot pebble]

Asking for less restrictions will make the quest wanna kill itself due to people making crashers and/or making unoptimiazed shit

[hot pebble]

Also sense ik your referring to bonelab

Bonelab is actually optimized and not shitty when it comes to FPS

But having too many NPCs kills FPS like hell

Thats why when playing the arena gamemode only 5 or 6 max NPC spawns

[supple ore]

is there a way to have an entirely seperate mesh be the quest version? want to see if i can decimate the model so it's at least close to the quest poly limit but i dont want the PC version to be murdered

[abstract swallow]

duplicate the project and make a quest specific version

[supple ore]

would it still be attached to the avatar though rather than a whole new one?

[abstract swallow]

oh wait this is for avatars not worlds, wrong spot lmao

[supple ore]

the PC version is rated good, terrible on quest though, I want to try to get it working properly on quest but i don't want to ruin the PC version

[hot pebble]

of an avatar?

[supple ore]

yeah

i want to know if you can use a seperate mesh for the quest version

a decimated version (except barely noticable since the shader covers most of it up)

but i want the PC version to remain normal

[hot pebble]

you can either do this or just duplicate the avatar and all of its assets and put it in another folder

[supple ore]

but would it still apply to the one avatar instead of being put as 2 different ones?

[hot pebble]

why doesv the mesh matter?

[supple ore]

PC: not decimated
Quest: decimated

[hot pebble]

ewe

[supple ore]

i don't want the PC version to look like shit, but i want it to be able not be automatically blocked on quest

[hot pebble]

lul
everything gets auto blocked for me
anywho
just 2 seperate gameobjects (aka avatars) and just have the same blueprint ID on both avatars

[supple ore]

i did it
it's "very good" on quest and it still looks decent

looks the same on PC as it always did

[sage tendon]

I'm a Blender novice trying to edit the FBX of my avatar to remove extraneous vertices and bons to make a Quest compatible version. I want to remove the vertices that are under my clothes and hair, but is there an easier way than just selecting them manually?

[jagged sequoia]

I suppose you could try selecting the UV Islands?

[sage tendon]

UV Islands?

[jagged sequoia]

question do you know what uv are just wondering so I know how much I have to explain or link towards

and I guess a related question do you know how to Mark seams

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS6B5PAzlWI

[sage tendon]

No to both unfortunately. Like I said, I'm very much a novice with Blender

[jagged sequoia]

basically like delete the faces on the body in a complete Loop where the clothing start so that the parts of the body you want to delete completely separated from the rest of the Avatar so you can press the letter L to select all of the floating chunk of body

[sage tendon]

Okay, I figured out that part and now I'm having a new issue. I'm trying to combine my mishes and I need to move things around on a UV map. How do I move the selected section onto the area of the new UV map that it needs to be on?

[jagged sequoia]

G key can grab the islands

[exotic sail]

can someone help me with my avatar lol

[jagged sequoia]

it would help if you got to describe the nature of your problem

[exotic sail]

i need to fix stuff

and idk where any of it is cuz its not showing me

like i need to change the shader and i know how to do if i see it but its not even showing up when i look for it

and my whole things a mess

i really just need someone in vc with me to fix it

i need to fix the shaders and physbones

because i put this from vrm

@jagged sequoia can you helps pls

[jagged sequoia]

https://github.com/kurotu/VRCQuestTools this Unity extension has some tools that help with Quest Avatar stuff like it should be able to fix the shaders

[exotic sail]

i know but i just want someone to show me

how do i even put this in

[jagged sequoia]

you download the unity package and then double-click on it to install it into your Unity project

https://github.com/kurotu/VRCQuestTools/releases/tag/v1.10.1

[exotic sail]

what unity package

im new to this

[plush epoch]

Is there a way to make avatars without a pc

[flint forge]

Not really, there are 3 websites, but wouldn't really call any of them good. https://hello.vrchat.com/avatar-systems

It is more like you just pick clothing.

[muted pumice]

Yeah it’s like a glorified Mii Maker

[eternal belfry]

idk, 'ready player me' avatars have a lot more fidelity than Mii's

[jagged sequoia]

you cannot make like a hamburger face with Ready Player me https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BVE9hkBxirg/hqdefault.jpg

[eternal belfry]

hamburger face is not the same as visual fidelity

[flint forge]

But clearly Hamburger face is far more fun than anything you could get out of ReadyPlayerMe.

[eternal belfry]

is it though?

[tulip dagger]

I mean, technically if you can install a windows or linux VM on a phone, install unity and install blender you might be able to technically make an avatar without a PC
...
thing is, if you're smart enough to do that, you own a PC.

[flint forge]

It is an example that I think fits VRChat well, creativity, how far outside of ReadPlayerMe's box can you go, if at all?

Personally I am here because I want to be creative and show off my creativity, couldn't do that with ReadyPlayerMe.

[tulip dagger]

just a reminder that you can technically use a minecraft skin as a vrchat avatar

[plush epoch]

Dam times like these make me wish i had money

Thank you tho

[eternal belfry]

Is smooshing the eyes and mouth together so it looks like a hamburger really the extend of your creativity? You can make full blown custom avatars for VRC if you want; ready player me is just a means of getting decent looking avatars without the need to learn to sculpt, texture, rig, and animate.

[flint forge]

And I am not sure if you know what creativity is.
Regardless, while ReadyPlayerMe does look better than what other social VR platforms that lack user created content have, it is still a very rigid system, which leaves very little room for creativity. And while Miis have very few tools, they aren't as rigid, which does allow for more creativity.

[short spindle]

Hey I'm trying to make my Vroid avatar work for quest and I've reduced the polygons and everything I can find that it requires but for Some reason when I go to Build & Publish for Android its greyed out and I cant figure out why?

Oh wait I figured out that you have to delete the bone meshes not just disable them

[harsh timber]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/730948173379535022/1107043255494901780/image_2023-05-13_223354055.png

How do I go about removing this white part from the texture / mesh when you cannot use cutout on Quest? It's on the hair rn so it looks square when moving about instead of actual hair strands.

I've had this issue before so I'd like to know how to go about solving it

[rugged oyster]

Can somebody make me a free avatar for my police station please

[jagged sequoia]

nobody is going to make you an avatar for free

[abstract swallow]

I literally wrote a LONG ass post guding you what you can do

[abstract swallow]

THIS @rugged oyster

[rugged oyster]

Don’t have pc

[abstract swallow]

then your out of luck

[rugged oyster]

Can somebody make me a free vrchat avatar for my police station please

[abstract swallow]

and you won't get any help asking here

no one is going to do it for free neither

your going to have to commission one or more

I've seen you ask that same request a few months ago and you are STILL asking for it now

your going to have to make it yourself, if you don't have a PC or can't borrow one from someone then your out of luck if you want to do it without dropping a dime

no one will work for free usually anyway

[jagged sequoia]

then no avatar for you

[abstract swallow]

no avatar if you aren't willing to pay neither

do you have a PC that you can access @rugged oyster ?

either through a family member or friend?

[rugged oyster]

No

[abstract swallow]

yeah your out of luck, sounds like your going to have to commission a creator

look on fiver, or some places on google I don't know any off the top of my head

no one likes working for free
