It didn't have toggles.

neon finch
#

Ok, then maybe it wasn't a creator ban, but rather a takedown

sand sail
#

No, the creator got banned from what i heard.

#

They even deleted momma puro-

neon finch
#

Ah, I was right, then. That's what they get for violating TOS

sand sail
#

There was no toggles though.

neon finch
#

If it still looked suggestive enough, I'd say the VRC folks were in the right

sand sail
#

And they got rid of a king avatar i had.

What's done is done

#

How would one go about replacing every bone in an avatar with dynamic or physics bones but have it still animate?

glass fern
barren hemlock
glass fern
#

Like if I replace the entire armature with them it can stay a humanoid rig?

#

Basically I want an avatar where every single part is dynamic bones

loud cape
#

you don't "replace" bones with dynamic bones

#

dynamic bones are not like, a different type of bone

#

they are a component in unity

I've seen it done, and it looks extremely stupid while doing it

(please reply to this with your answer so I know) so I am wondering.. has anyone made an imitated Spring Joint with Dynamic Bones?

#

Hello (: can ANYBODY make me a avatar PLEASE its a simple character DM me if you care about my suffering

#

(im on Quest)

hasty hemlock
wide lichen
#

the avatar is litterly just going to be a box with a haed and sticks as legs and arms

#

simple enough?

hasty hemlock
#

that was still probably take someone like an hour to do so they're unlikely to do it for free and that looks simple enough that you could try doing that yourself to learn how to make avatars

wide lichen
#

no, im stupido

#

i can make the model but making it a avatar honestly terrifies me

agile marlin
#

does anybody know what's better for optimization on toggles? one mesh with transparent materials. or multiple meshes

neon finch
#

Like the shader can make certain parts invisible by material but I'm pretty sure it's still rendering it to some extent so

#

Is there a way to change my facial animations to my other controller? To clarify, what I mean is, when I press down my trigger button (on my right controller) my Avatar makes a facial expression, can I change this? (I made this character myself using VRoid and imported it into Unity)

you can put any clothes on any model

the amount of work required to fit it well varies a lot

clothes made for a specific base will always work best for that base

Hello, im having an weird issue that i dont see certain things in unity
for example...i dont se any things like dynamic bones...no white lines...no radius balls....also cant see any Bound Boxes
In the Gizmos all of them are checked to be shown but they just dont show up on screen

#

even having a new project and just using one of the dynbones demois their not showing up

ruby vortex
#

Does an avatar with 300k polygons exist? I've never seen one

hasty hemlock
#

there's no need for an avatar to be that heavy so it's a good thing you've never seen one

vast ermine
#

I have one wih over 600,000 polys... it always causes so much lag for other people... guess I just kept adding toggable items lol

ruby vortex
#

Alr I was just curious

#

You can hit that easy with cloning models but you usually won't wander about with clones following. I only see them during showcases or performances.

#

Right, no images in here. Was just going to show one that was 363k

#

hey is it possible to have your avatar blend in with their environment? cause i work on a chameleon like avatar and id love to be able to have him kinda blend in with the background. i know i could just make him go see through but thats not cool and its too easy. i wanna be extra. is it possible?

@vague raft I know this is off topic but I have to say this

As someone with visual impairment, and who reads Braille, I love your username!

#

I’ll convert it to English for you: Buttercup

vague raft
#

Yes it is.
There is no real reason behind it. I just learnt braille one week because I heard stories of signs in buildings and on the street just not being correct at all and wanted to see if that was the case around me too.

I'm sure, I just meant more from a unity's side of thing

in that case, not a lot, because 2019 is almost dead

Do we know if VRChat is coming to Xbox?

hasty hemlock
#

it's never coming to Xbox it doesn't even have any VR

spiral sequoia
#

right, but you can still play without using a VR

#

Desktop mode on pc for example

#

Would be great for those who dont have a PC but still wanna play the games with frienda

hasty hemlock
#

& Microsoft would never allow it on the Xbox vrc

spiral sequoia
#

Why not?

west nest
#

bcs vrchat have many copyrighted stuff.

#

and it isn't moderated too well.

spiral sequoia
#

Right but all that is in the cloud, no?

support for ps and xbox = no freedom with content

#

it isn't worth it

it would also be impossible to upload Xbox avatars and worlds given how they handle licensing Microsoft

#

Stuiped question for avatar creators. What gets you to sit down and work on your avatars instead of going i could be play vrc?

vague raft
#

The looming feeling when I'm in game knowing I could be working on something
This is amplified if it's something on the model I'm in. Could be a broken system or just an idea for something I haven't seen before. Either way it occupies my brain like remembering a doctor's appointment.

faint eagle
# vague raft The looming feeling when I'm in game knowing I _could_ be working on something. ...

I guess I'm the other way around. I get bored when im trying to find/ understand the tutorial for avatars which then frustrates me when something is unclear or just doesn't work and have to walk away, is there things that need fixing oh yes differently it would probably taken 2 months of Tutorials and try and error to get my avatar fixed but atlest mine avatar looks/ runs better then when it was given to me

vague raft
#

That's definitely a difference, in my case there is no tutorial, no video, no text walkthrough. It's just messing with what I know in ways I haven't before to make something I've never seen and then showing it off or sharing it with people.

#

It's why I jumped into the PhysBo beta the second it dropped

faint eagle
vague raft
#

I'm not bashing tuts, I watch even the most basic ones when I come across them because you never know what someone else might've come across. Unity is a massive program and there's always 10 different ways to do 1 thing. Maybe their method is a bit different but saves time even if it's only a second. If you do it a thousand times it stacks up.

faint eagle
#

But anyway thank you for your wisdom for a lack of a better word

forest citrus

I have a question

#

Is there a way to put a random number within a range into a paramater on a avatar?

loud cape
#

yes

#

using the VRC Parameter driver

mystic niche
#

forgive my ignorance, just really getting into vrc creation. Why is it that everyone uses and creates anime character avatars? Why not like fun animals or more creative characters?

hasty hemlock
#

they are lots of furry avatars in vrchat

#

and as far as why there is a lot of anime basically a lot of early vrchat folks utilized MMD models to make customized avatars because that was a system that had interchangeable customizable parts and MMD was anime style, and a lot of the early folks weren't skilled at modeling yet to make like original stuff

mystic niche
#

damn, thanks for such a detailed informative answer fam

hasty hemlock
#

and then later down the line vrchat picked up a Japanese user base and they started making original anime models instead of modifying mmds as the Japanese userbase considers that a lot more rude than the Western userbase considers it modifying MMD models

#

and I suppose one thing that's helpful with anime is it doesn't particularly Hit The Uncanny Valley as far as doing human rendering

past hound
#

I got a question not sure where to ask, how hard is it to make a item on ur avatar that other user can interact with like grabbing something on ur avi

#

(Is it even possible )

winged bridge
#

Is there a way to have control over the auto footstepping from FinalIK return timeout duration after locomoting. As it stands, it takes like 3-5 seconds for it to return when it would have been instant on sdk2

VRCLens question: has anyone ever tried animating the drone along a path; like setting up a defined rails system? Would that be possible?

left arch
#

I've gotten it to do much weirder stuff.

(Like the time I worked out how to make it use additional point lights from an avatar)

humble hound
#

So got a question as I am working on my own personal avatar. How do you guys make the toggles/radials and animations for clothing? By hand or do you use any script? I tried inventory inventor but it creates controller layers with write defaults, which does not seem to go well with other stuff I've done without write defaults..

tiny prairie
#

Does anyone know how I'd go about making a player's vision go black on an avatar? Basically a toggle to deal with sensory overload

coral crest
#

So I have a question idk if this is the right channel for it but will there be avatar sounds for quest?

hasty hemlock
#

nope as the quest doesn't have enough CPU power to handle all of the voice chat and sound effects at the same time

winged bridge
#

In my testing, even if the animator isn't transitioning to any states and has settled, it still takes 3-5 seconds to return the auto footstepping

#

Hey! I have issues with my new model billie where her booty uncontrollably jiggles in game, anyone know how to fix this? :3 It like vibrates. My friend dont see it but some do, and it looks like its a game issue

vague raft
#

It’s slow though, do work I’ve already done when there are tools available that allow you to click 1 button and be done. Most tools have WD control so I’m surprised you were having that issue.

loud cape
#

WD on/off is really just a personal choice. pretty much everything that can be done with one can be done with the other.

#

on makes some things easier, and off makes other things easier

hasty hemlock

just make sure you don't mix them

you don't need to rejoin or anything

Is it possible to create a avatar in vr?

neon finch
#

No

lost halo
#

Darn

loud cape
#

in Neos you can, but it's really annoying

glacial ice
#

A consistent, coherent art style makes for better models, you don't need trillions of triangles/polygons to make a good looking avatar

#

That still won't stop trolls/crashers ofc, and there's plenty of us learning to 3d model that have to work on topology and optimization, just to be fair

barren hemlock
#

It also has to do with the fact everyone uses Toon shading so realistic looking characters look super out of place and sometimes disturbing

glacial ice
#

because it's too easy to hit the uncanny valley when you're effectively stylizing something while trying to keep it realistic

#

You gotta consider it from a practical standpoint, it's much easier to model a stylized furry or anime model from scratch, texture it, rig it, and so on, as opposed to create something much more realistic with textures that work and are consistent...

silver adder
#

I do like models with realistic shading when it's done well and the worlds lighting setup supports it.

#

But everyone go's with toon shading because it's easier and looks better across different worlds lighting setups.

hasty hemlock
#

it's also easier to hide modeling errors with a toon Shader

silver adder
#

That too.

hasty hemlock
#

and also probably lots of folks who most of their knowledge before they started modeling was doing stylized 2D art so probably wouldn't have the knowledge to do a photo-realistic human

mystic niche
#

Interesting, I've never used blender but I'm going to start next week when I finish my world. Any recommendations? Thinking of doing toon animals, not furry types but just normal animals.

#

I agree, I think hyperrealistic avatars look weird 99% of the time

#

Also would avatar/world commission work be a good side gig?

winged bridge
#

making my own sdk2 animations

winged bridge
#

I wouldn't ask sdk2 questions in sdk3 channels vrcSkull

#

the sdk2 set was just miles better than the sdk3 one

barren hemlock
winged bridge
#

Yes. I know they are. I meant that I'm updating the old AvatarTemplateController from SDK2 to work with SDK3 avatars and replicating legacy behavior

#

but the auto footstepping return timeout not being instant really annoys me

vague raft
#

afaik that's just the game, we have no control over it. Been there since day 1 too

winged bridge
#

sdk2 avatars still work the same as they used to. It's literally just an SDK3 thing

neon finch
#

so im not sure if this is an actual thing but ive seen someone's model in fullbody be able to lift up its heel and the toes stay stuck to the ground? is that a fullbody thing or an avatar thing?

winged bridge
#

someone being on their tip toes irl is possible

neon finch
#

but i didnt think itd bend the toes like that ? i remember asking them what it was and they didnt say it was a tracker but they didnt tell me what it was? 🤔

karmic totem
#

Pretty sure that is just a thing that your avatar will do if you have toes mapped in the unity rig

neon finch
#

even when in fullbody? o:

#

coz thatd be cool if thats the case

karmic totem
#

Not sure about fbt

neon finch
#

ye coz i know it happens WITHOUT fbt

winged bridge
#

Pretty sure toe mapped tip toeing is a finalIk thing

neon finch
#

oh that actually kinda makes sense tbh 🤔

vague raft
#

keeping the toes mapped is all it is. You could to it in desktop if you lifted the head a bit

neon finch
#

huh, alrighty, ill see if i can just upload it and try it out in fbt then coz i just weighted my toes n mapped em !!

loud cape
#

something like vrchat toe tracking system or whatever

#

uses particle collision systems to detect the ground

i dunno if ill be able to find it though coz it just shows people wanting toe tracking LOL

well no method is 100% reliable

#

Any example of that sort of thing is pretty easy to delete, if you have any understanding of blender/unity

toxic forge
#

thats just one of the better methods because itd be harder to remove

#

yeah but theyd have to get it in blender

#

which is annoying id imagine, most rippers wont bother with all that

#

Import FBX

#

o_o

toxic forge
#

and well if they DO get it in bllender then they can remove any other method too

#

From pulling it out of the game

#

There are some things that obfuscate and totally HEARGH the model/animation controller, but even that is eeeh

#

Ye.

toxic forge
vague raft
#

It’s a lot easier than you think. I hate it and I despise people that do it but it’s not difficult.

toxic forge
#

ok well my point still stands if they get it in blender then any other method is just as pointless

#

i think having your tag inside the head as part of the mesh is reliable and visible

vague raft
#

Yup, that or carving something into the wireframe.

#

Though if you only stick it inside the head and then they do a head swap, it’s gone.

opaque mulch
#

hmmm

#

let me see

vague raft
#

With all this being said though I reckon 95% of the time I see anything that’s stolen or leaked, the credits to the original creator are still there. It’s pretty rare that people will go and try and find the credits to remove them especially if it’s pulled from vrc.

There are workarounds though. You could probably use animations and constraints to make your arm stick out forwards and follow your head so you can aim.

advanced question: does anyone know how to fix the sync issue with final IK? or better yet, what causes it?

detailed description:
using a final IK grounder properly grounds for the local player... but remotely it stays fixed to the initial ground height when the avatar first loads in.

toxic forge
#

But be warned sometimes booth blocks international credit cards and sometimes they don't. If you can buy the artists model on another website (most artists usually have multiple places) I would recommend that

loud dock
#

does anyone know what these errors mean, i cant build the character

karmic totem
#

Very likely you are missing the Dynamic Bones paid asset from the Unity store.

#

Which at this point is kind of silly to buy since the VRChat replacement is in beta, but if you want to upload that avatar without buying and be on the live client, you would need to remove the scripts from your avatar that the error points out

loud dock
#

i have other character files with dynamic bones, can i like somehow export it from there and import it in this one?

#

wow it actually worked

does anyone know why the face of this character is white, and where i could possibly find that shader?

Hi! Did anyone ever occurred ... idk 'static fbx'? (I dont know how to call this)

I have a prefab and the fbx feels ... 'static'. When i delete a mesh in blender and safe the fbx the object with the skin mesh renderer is still in the fbx and states 'missing mesh'. When i add a mesh, it wont show up in unity - i have to create an empty object and add the mesh within the skinned mesh renderer. Materials also dont update automatically ... everything stays as it is.

This wont be a problem, i mean i can add and delete everything manually ... BUT ... as soon as i add bones to my armature, all meshs disappear ... and i have no idea how to bring them back ... any ideas?

I cant drag/drop the fbx into the scene and use pumkin because the prefab uses a very complex Final KI setup :<

did you unpack prefab on your avatar in the hierarchy

ah yeah if the avatar is a prefab it will also not update

#

it needs to be a mesh prefab (drag and drop the fbx into the scene but don't save it as a prefab)

#

has a box with a line though it as an icon

acoustic gust
# graceful nest it needs to be a mesh prefab (drag and drop the fbx into the scene but don't sav...

the problem is - i need to use the prefab ... because the prefab is ... as far as i can tell ... already edited. It is an avatar which uses Final IK. So for example the legs arent where they should be according to the fbx armature structure ... they are found somewhere completly diffrent in some container ... this whole thing is damn complex ... i'd rate myself as intermediate experienced ... but this avatar is brainfuck ... (but damn cool)

Well I have an avatar that got banned but isn't nsfw got any ideas?

#

I didn't make it though

neon finch
#

I spent hours making one but cant use it because I "Haven't played the game long enough" because 16 hrs isnt enough

clear crystal
neon finch
#

So I have to play for a whole other 8 hours?

#

that seems kinda excessive

#

There isnt any AFK timer on the game is there?

#

Yeah.

#

Damn

#

Welp then idk what to do because I'm not just gonna do a full 8 Hour Playthrough of VR chat and I'm most definitely not gonna get another 8hrs of it in soon as I am busy and casually play it at night

Does anyone know anyone who does furry avatar commissions? I don't have money but I do have art I can make in return. All I'm looking for is 2 recolors of a Nardo furry avatar. (Me and my boyfriends fursonas)

#

when i make an avatar, should i start with blender and import it into unity? or should i start with a different program?

#

( i'm brand new to 3d modeling. )

loud cape
#

Blender for modeling, rigging, weight painting, UV unwrapping, and shape keys. for texturing you can either use Blender's texture painting, a 2d image editing program, or better yet, Substance painter. once you have a finished model, you can then bring it to Unity to set it up for vrchat and upload it

left arch
#

alright! since I'm a noob I'm just going to start with a basic low-poly avatar. i'll post my progress as I go

#

What's the best channel to talk about buying fiverr avatars for oculus quest 2 because i got a seller on fiverr that wants me to pay 450 dollars all together for a Lucifer Morningstar avatar that can fly and extract and retract wings and can turn into the devil face like on the tv show is it worth it?

neon finch
#

And Vroid is free

#

Although beware if you dont have atleast 24 hrs of VR chat under your belt it wont let you upload the model

lost halo
#

Do you happen to know if that's worth it? @neon finch

neon finch
#

Making your own or playing for 24 hrs?

hasty hemlock
#

technically you can also pick up one month of a vrchat plus for $10 to immediately grab upload privileges

hasty hemlock
#

yes yes as vrchat plus includes a one-time trust rankboost which is typically enough to hit the unlock privilege

neon finch
hasty hemlock
#

yes

I mean actually rank up while afk

neon finch

Really?

toxic forge
#

Yeah I think you used to be able too in 2017/18 or it might've been a coincidence

#

To unlock upload privs at least

neon finch
#

Damn so AFKing wont work? Actually if a dev can pls confirm this (I dont want to ping them)

toxic forge
#

I can already confirm for you it no longer works

neon finch
#

Dang so the only way now is to have VRC+ or just actually play for 24 hours

toxic forge
#

The best way to unlock upload privs is go to a public world, talk to some trusted users (purple shield) and ask them to friend you so you can unlock your uploading privileges. Most will be nice and understanding and help out

#

That will give you a massive trust boost because it's based on friends more than time being active

neon finch
#

Wait so just getting a trusted user to friend you will also do it.

You must obtain at least "New User" Trust Rank in our Trust and Safety system in order to upload content. You can get this by just spending a few hours in VRChat, hop some worlds, and make some friends. Give it some time and you'll be able to upload content in no time.

As an aside, you must have a VRChat account to upload content. That means you can't use a Steam account, Oculus account, or Viveport account to upload content like worlds or avatars.

And the glitch is…?

so I can gwt unity i think

but what else would make it easier

#

@neon finch

#

What are you using to make the avatar with? Or are you porting a model?

#

If i can yes

#

Just grab a model

#

Then you’ll want the CATS plug-in for blender. The blender version specified by the plug-in at least

polar patrol
#

Hey, so making my first avatar here from scratch. How detailed do I need to make the teeth/tongue of the avatar? Just a plain for each row of teeth? Or should I add some dimension to the top of the teeth as well?

fluid grotto
#

Anyone know what causes the SDK to insist my bounding box is very poor when it's only 2 meters

#

SDK says it's 400

#

It's otherwise medium rated but it says bounding box is terrible

neon finch
#

Is there something else on the avatar that could be causing that?

fluid grotto
#

There's only 2 meshes and I have the bounding box set to center 0 0 0, size 2 2 2 for both

karmic totem
polar patrol
karmic totem
neon finch
#

most avis i see dont have detailed teeth so thats what id go for aswell

polar patrol
#

Fair enough, appreciate it

karmic totem
#

a tongue is probably better to have detailed than all the teeth, but if planning to upload to quest, teeth being more than just a flat plane with cutout transparency would be needed

#

since quest has no transparency for avatars

polar patrol
#

Sounds good. Thanks for the help!

how long is that and is that in Unity or in VRChat itself?

karmic totem

pretty sure that box in the sdk says the same thing

low ermine
karmic totem

You need to play VRChat for a little while, a few hours, several hours, many hours, it's not the same for everyone. If you want to immediately upload, you can pay the $10usd for VRC+

well, I guess its time to play some more VRChat

Hey does anyone know what shaders use cut out

for quest?

karmic totem
# modest perch for quest?

none, quest doesn't do transparency for avatars. If you need some of the mesh to be missing on the Quest, you remove it in blender.

modest perch
#

oh ok

#

i actually have an avatar that is sdk 2 with clear windows

#

does that work on sdk 3?

neon finch

I wish there was Photo Negative Mickey in VRChat

that was random

merry sierra
#

Ssoo. I have the Nicoreda Protogen here. And when I make fists, the toes clench too. But there's nothing referencing it within Unity... and the animations, albeit confusing me, are clean.
Clean as in: hands animations only carry hand Keyframes. Toes animations only carry toe keyframes. I also can't find anything in the Animators that would call on Toe clench on Gesture 1.
The only time the toes are called on are within a menu for Toe control

modest perch
#

remove the toe bones

merry sierra
#

I mean.. that woulod solve the issue. But then I'd loose the Toe positioning stuff too XD

modest perch
#

oh

#

write down the positioning of the toes and then input them after

merry sierra
#

No. I mean. You have a radial menu in-world where you can do toe stuff, spread them and curl them and stuff.
I'm more interested in what causes that weird cross behavior though

modest perch
#

oh

merry sierra
#

Okay. Found the issue!
Now on to another thing: A blend tree doesn't quite work in VRC. But works perfectly nice in Unity.
It blends between 4 different animations. The left and right blend works. The up and down blend does not.

loud cape
#

CATS is not compatible with blender 3.1

#

the Dev version is somewhat compatible with 3.0

#

but the main version is only compatible up to 2.93.8

#

think of it more as like an FBX export preset

#

it's the same exporter as blender, but with all of the correct export setting already applied for you

#

like the FBX scaling, and disabled Leaf bones

#

at the end of the day, some settings don't matter too much, but the really important part is being consistent

#

exporting with different export settings over an existing model can fuck stuff up

#

and will typically require you to reset pose in the avatar definition and in the scene

#

my recommendation: use CATS export, and always use it lol

#

then don't use the steam version

#

or go to the properties and tell steam to not update it

#

ahh hm

#

actually wait

#

if you go to the Betas section

#

you can pick a version I think

loud cape
#

what matters is the amount of material slots on your meshes

ivory pier
#

Anyone got a toggle assistant thingy?

#

One that works with the new SDK.

loud cape
#

every mesh you have has a certain amount of slots

#

if you have a mesh with one slot, and you separate a part of it, you now have 2 meshes, and 2 material slots

#

yes

#

yep

#

did you also make sure to remove the extra slots from that split off mesh?

#

if you didn't remove the unused slots, they still count

#

also, splitting off meshes isn't the only way to toggle stuff

#

you can also have stuff weighed to an extra bone, and you can scale that bone down to hide it

config, enable debug see if they appear on model (if quest has that in their setting . radial menu)

Oh, where's this in unity? Or windows file explore in assets or something?

merry swan

ingame, unity you can just use radius and have gizmo on to see em easier

outer haven

Oh, right, okay! So I enable debug on quest and then just check to see if there's a button for it where my expressions and sliders are?

merry swan

2 kind of debugs, one show the bones, other is the parameters

they added this on the open beta so you can easier see bone/size/ect

Any of you know how to get a free otter base? I just got scammed 30 bucks 🥳 Someone said that they would make me an otter avatar and I said OK. I paid them and then boom, blocked and ghosted 😎 I am a child so I can’t really do much and I will have to wait another few months to get at least 30 bucks because I don’t have a job and my family doesn’t give money. How low do you have to be to scam a kid 🤣😭

#

I’m just gonna try to find a free base and have someone recolor for cheaper

#

Took me 3 months to make that money 😤 Moral of the story, don’t trust anyone named Kevin 😪

silver adder

Where can I find one?

vast jetty

There's a server for trading avatar stuff which is moderated, I don't recall the name but you should be able to find trustworthy people on there and to report the person who scammed you so that others don't experience the same

Taht's the one, thanks. The recolor should be doable with any tool which is similar to photoshop. Gimp is a free example

Is there any way to un-set my fallback avatar?
I'd rather just let quest users know they have to manually enable my avatar

#

It's not even that badly optimized it just has more material slots than the SDK requires

silver adder
#

Nope, having a fallback is mandatory. Can't opt-out of the system.

fresh portal
#

oof

silver adder
#

You CAN however, upload a plane with a PNG as to use as your fallback telling people to show your avatar lol.

fresh portal
#

lmao

#

I was actually just going to find the model for when an avatar is disabled based on performance and upload it

#

It's basically the same thing except I have to try more

silver adder
#

One problem with that, the model isn't "officially" available, so you'd probably get banned for that. Shouldn't have to say why.

fresh portal
#

o

#

Well people have done funky things with the default robot and that was fine

#

Can't see why this would be an issue 🤔

silver adder
#

Whoever made the original model might have it publicly available somewhere, but idk where.

fresh portal
#

It's literally just the default robot with a sticker slapped on top isn't it?

silver adder
#

Basically. Just the default robot with the thumbnail of your avatar on it's chest.

merry swan
#

slightly different version is in the open beta sdk exsample

silver adder
#

There's that too. But you'd have to remove the hair and tail from it lol.

fresh portal
silver adder
#

Embeds are disabled too.

fresh portal
#

Because the avatar I want to use is on quest

#

It's just that it has a few too many materials

silver adder
#

Are the alternate materials actually required because of shader variants? Cause you could just atlas the textures to get it under the threshold.

fresh portal
#

Actually just putting the effort in to optimize the materials would probably be easier

#

It's just annoying to do

silver adder
#

It's literally just a few clicks in Cats Blender plugin.

fresh portal
#

🗿

#

I forgot about that
I'll do that

silver adder
#

Provided you are only using a diffuse texture. You'll have to do some manual work if you've got extra textures like normal maps and emission maps.

fresh portal
#

No I'm not only using a diffuse

#

Actually that's probably the reason why I didn't do it in the first place

#

Don't remember I'm Rly tired

silver adder
#

It's still not that hard, just overlaying the textures into the same position their diffuse counterparts would be in a photo editor.

fresh portal
#

I'll get around to that then

#

Thanks

If you want to commission something though discord then visiting servers that are more dedicated to that is better. Scroll through the #community-servers-old for something that seems appropriate. Most people recommend VRCTraders first.

Yeah see, you're carrying a world in your pocket. I can't say the same but I'm still pushing the same numbers. Using crunch compression is great for download size but it's not making the file any smaller for the memory.

i've been like really confused with pricing on this stuff

astral river
#

Hello, I uploaded avatar from unity to vr chat but I can't see it, Why?

lyric ledge
astral river
#

i use unity 2019.4.31

lyric ledge
#

correct. i guess you need to wait a little bit.

astral river
#

ok

#

i can see avatars i upload for offline testing

umbral valley
astral river
#

Few minutes

neon finch
#

Does anyone know where i can find some avatar addons like cloning yourself or food shooting particles?

bold ocean
#

So, I need a bit of help, I have bought a model and uploaded it for testing, but the tails are stiff. I've been told to download and import Dynamic bones for the avatar. I did but it's still stiff at the tails. I have a video to show as I can't show here

neon finch
#

@astral river for me, I always have to relog in order to see new avatars be uploaded. Have you tried?

@neon finch https://dextrovr.gumroad.com/l/DexClone

@bold ocean The tail could be controlled in a radial puppet, in the menu rather. Check if that's the case. Also, make sure to go to settings and disable the limit for dynamic bones.

#

@neon finch HOLY MOLLY THANK YOU, this is perfect for a character i made

bold ocean
#

@neon finch I assume that's in the unity program, right?

neon finch
#

I now just need to find a addon or something that is like a particle but shoots physical food. I remember seeing it on a paimon avatar

bold ocean
#

I'll look for it when i get home

neon finch

Okay, thanks

Is there a way to get statistics of an own public avatar?

# neon finch Is there a way to get statistics of an own public avatar?

If you wanted to delete one, and were concerned others are using it. Could do what I do, replace the avatar with a sign showing a Discord name, asking to contact. actually, I often wonder what stops me from just replacing mine with a nude model or something else and watch for the chaos

#

ok

is there a timeframe that anyone thinks physbones will be released? there's a lot of avis I want to release but I can't go anywhere in terms of bones because of waiting for physbones to be released publically

hey, quick question for anyone who knows. i havent used the stuff in a while, but is the 2018 version of unity no longer supported for uploading models?

karmic totem
marsh marlin
#

I know, 2019.4.31 but i was wondering if i had an avatar that was made for the 2018 version and didnt get changed to the newer engine, could i still use it

karmic totem
#

the current release of the SDK will not work in 2018, so if you ever want to use new features, you will need to update or upload new avatars with the current release

That channel would still be a good place to ask for it. If you can provide a screenshot of it in game, someone might know where the base is for it

#

could be a bunch of things.
Incorrect animation pathing, incorrect keyframe values, transition issues, controller layer weights set to 0, states missing animations, element 4 bug, parameter name not matching everywhere.

I'd check over other things to get some more information first

# frozen breach does anyone know how to lower the polygons of an avatar

The "proper" way is to manually remove edge loops and stuff so you can keep the detail where its needed. Alternatively there are tools and modifiers like the blender cats plugin or decimate modifier which can automatically do it - but results vary from being passable to it screwing joints and stuff up

vapid river
#

something I noticed with roughness is it seems less like the reflections are being blurred and more like the cubemap is being blurred then projected in the world, like someone took the cubemap into photoshop, increased the blur on it, then put it on a cube in game, and it makes roughness on an avatar really hard to tweak

what even is that

we need a material update or something at some point, shaders just arent fun to play with, especially when the values just dont line up with what I want to actually see

vague raft
# umbral valley what even is that

For whatever reason when you try to animate a material swap on element 4, when previewing the animation or at runtime, it will swap on element 2 instead. As far as I know you can’t fix this, you can only avoid it by having element 4 be a material you don’t plan on animating with a material swap, ever.

Fun times

Cool. Probably a stupid question so please bear with me here as this is my first time making visemes, would I only close them to the half way point of the eye, or all the way up to the opposite lid?

When it is ready, there is no official ETA, other than maybe summer?

Well that sucks. That means I won’t know when to prepare my avatar

well after it release you will have it already prepared.

just replace beta sdk with live one

Am I able to make avatars on my MacBook? I have the newest one

if you have apple based processor not intel one

Damn :((

just wait unity 2020 gonna be probably added in next few months

#

since 2019 loses support soon

noble peak
#

Hopefully they make it so I can make my own

west nest
#

unity 2020 supports apple processors

karmic totem
#

Just because 2019 loses LTS, doesn't mean we will get an immediate switch to 2020, it could still be next year that we finally get a move to it.

west nest
#

we will see

#

but yeah it doesn't change fact 2019 have no support for apple processors.

karmic totem
#

Likely the team has been working with 2020 to see if things work, as a low priority project, but we won't know until someone says so. I guess it is possible that you could try running Unity in the compatibility layer that Apple has to use old programs, if it's supported.

is there a way to get the full version of the proxy animations? so i can edit them

all i want to do is adding extra stuff to account for my avatar's wings and tail. not really modifying the original animation

#

what would you need the actual animations for, other than maybe getting a better visual of where the body is during the animation?

minor drum
#

I'm getting The signed in account doesn't have access to the blueprint associated with your VRC_Avatar(or Scene)Descriptor when trying to upload an avatar, and when I exit play mode, the SDK gets logged out. I've double and triple checked that before trying to upload, but it still gives me this error. I've also tried re-importing the SDK.

#

but cant edit the originals

#

but if your adding tail/wing/ear animations, add those in gesture or fx layer

#

completely separate from locomotion logic

#

then if you want them tied to locomotion, you can use the same parameters (VelocityXYZ) and a blendtree to blend between animation clips

umbral valley
#

why do you need 4 material slots

toxic forge
#

That's not that many

#

Anyways unity literally has a bug where you can't. So there's a good example of it breaking down for you

umbral valley
#

why do you need 4 material slots though

toxic forge
#

Buy something on booth idk

#

Those models I was talking about with the 8k textures, it's an 8k atlas because they're 1/2 materials

#

But I've definitely worked with models with more slots. And I just told you an example of unity breaking itself

umbral valley
#

im going to stop paying attention to the "8k textures? like 6mb of download space bro stop crying" person now

Uhh ok?

how do I add an avatar photo and have it not show up on the avatar itself?

karmic totem
#

It looks like you are using the AD beta, not the live sdk. The AD beta needs a couple of new packages from the Unity package library, which are supposed to be downloaded when you import the SDK, but won't be imported if you are not signed into Unity so it can access the Unity asset repository. If you are wanting avatars for the live version of the game, you should be using the SDK from the website and should remove and import the version from there
