[hollow meteor]

is there a way to make it so it isnt long?

[raven orbit]

make it like 0.001 or 0.1 whatever numbers look right

[hollow meteor]

im trying to make it so that it doesnt go far out like this, idk where to do that

[raven orbit]

y

[night ember]

why didnt youjust make the endpoint a smaller number

[hollow meteor]

I changed the y and the smallest number I can do is 1.0 so im confused😭

it still stays the same length

[raven orbit]

there's no reason you shouldn't be able to make the end point position Y smaller, it worked for the Z value right in that image you sent

[hollow meteor]

yes idk why it doesnt become smaller, it only changes angles

[night ember]

smallest number isnt 1?

you can have a really small decimal

like .0001

[mortal oar]

could anyone lend me a hand in a upload i bought a avi off booths

[silent hearth]

Anyone know the current dimensions of avatar thumbnail pics? Google says its 1200x900 but when the thumbnails are put into photoshop and expanded don't scale up to 1200x900, it's quite off.

[night ember]

4:3

[silent hearth]

ah

[silent hearth]

Still doesn't scale up to fit the 4:3 aspect ratio

Do the avatar thumnail dimensions change depending on what resolution you're running the game on?

[night ember]

Probably?
I just know the thumbnail in unity is in 4:3

[timber wharf]

you beter off with uploading some template like uv unwrap one and check what actually fits. vrc uses random aspects in different places, like website, avatar pedestal etc.

[night ember]

Unity is 4:3
Ingame is the in between of 4:3 and 1:1
Pedestals are squares
Dont remember the website

Side wing ingame is also a square

Very inconsistent

[compact dust]

anybody got tips to fix the clipping?
blender is not my strong suit

[night ember]

Shorten the sleeve to ignore the problem entirely or sculpt it around the hand

[compact dust]

i would
but im not good at modeling (at all)

[night ember]

Id recommend going 4:3 and putting everything required in a 1:1

[night ember]

Wont get better without trying

[compact dust]

bwehh

[night ember]

Twas how I learned

[compact dust]

i learned unity but not blender
i regret it

[night ember]

Unity is infinitly more annoying

And the more required of the 2

[compact dust]

how would i even shorten the sleeve btw

ik how to sculpt it, but that result isnt rlly that good

[night ember]

Edit mode
Select sleeve
Shrink it on one axis a tiny bit and/or slide it over

[compact dust]

ty <33

ive now learned how to fix long sleeves

except maybe the textures

[dusk finch]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone might know why i have this weird patch on the bra and body texture in the same place. It only shows in unity and blender but doesn't show in the substance file where i did the textures (can't paste the body texture here). I did manage to fix the bra in unity but not in game. Just wondering if anyone might know or have any ideas??

[vernal pecan]

Have you tried to apply different materials on it? Maybe it is some shader texture in material slot that make this

[dusk finch]

i can try remaking the material and seeing what it does

[tough token]

How would I add particles to a prop when you trigger a gesture? Like for example if I was holding a sword that I toggled on and I make a point gesture it turns on particles for the sword.

kinda like if PropA = true and PointGesture = true then particles = true

[placid mica]

What does this mean and how can I fix it?

[placid mica]

Yeah! Still need help?

[junior void]

You have 6 errors, only 2 show in the ss. Scroll up please and show us the top ones

[placid mica]

I figured it out. Thank you, though!

[tough token]

Nvm I did some testing in the FX and did it

[jovial spoke]

I give up. Im just burning myself out for nothing

[junior void]

ok

[vernal pecan]

When I have a helmet, parented to avis head with parent constraint, it doesn't scales correctly with vrchats avatar scaling, but its ok without parent constraint.. where to look to fix it?

[upper plover]

does anyone know why my view is like this?

[vernal pecan]

i mean, it's scale is ok, but it's shifts over and under the head

[dusk finch]

So changing it fixed it in unity but not vrchat. I'm so confused xD

[junior void]

Why are you using a parent constraint rather than just simply parenting the helmet object to the head bone?

[vernal pecan]

cause im manipulating it, taking to hand, to bike, etc.

it has 3 parent constraints positions

[junior void]

Maybe you need to use a scale constraint based on the position of the helmet?

[pale thorn]

how does one add polyomi toon onto the VCC app?

like when you hit "manage project", it should show up with polyomi toon

or is that not a thing

[junior void]

You need to add it to your packages first, its not there by default

[pale thorn]

howw

[junior void]

In the vcc, go to settings (bottom left), then to "packages" top middle item, there, on the right is "add repository" button, click it, add "https://poiyomi.github.io/vpm/index.json" and confirm adding it, then you can go back to your project, hit "manage" and it should now be in the list where you can hit "add"

[pale thorn]

thank youuu

very helpful

[upper plover]

does anyone know why my camera view is messed up?

[vernal pecan]

and - it is scales correctly, but its vertical position is incorrect, like at 25% avatars size - helmet is deep under the floor

and i also have wings constrained to 2 parents and they don't have same broblem

[junior void]

almost sounds like another constraint isnt set to 0 and "pulls it downwards"

[vernal pecan]

no, just tested, not the reason.

[pale thorn]

I just wanna ask this so I don't blow something up. to upload an avi, you just drag the avatar file into this?

then this?

[vernal pecan]

figured it out... the empty parent coordinates was zero to head, but should be zero to all model and not zero to head

[granite pasture]

hi I#m new to vrchat what would be a good avater for me (I'm a german femboy)

[vernal pecan]

I think it's more about avatar creating technical problems solving type of help, than avatar choosing.

make friends ingame, and ask them, thats what vrchat for!

[pale thorn]

uhhh.. shit

help?

[granite pasture]

ok thx c:

[vernal pecan]

try to install VRCfury again to your project

[pale thorn]

which version?

[vernal pecan]

a think latest one will be best

[pale thorn]

what?

oh

[junior void]

"Youre missing files...." you need to import gogo loco alongside vrcfury

[pale thorn]

the avi said it has gogo in it..

oh

im fucking dyslexic

one sec

where would I find "GoGo Loco by Franada"

[junior void]

Google it

Youll find it

[pale thorn]

I did that, I more so meant the link so I can add it as a package

[junior void]

Gogo loco has a website thatll list the vcc link

[pale thorn]

https://www.gogoloco.net?

?

[junior void]

Whats unclear about it

[pale thorn]

is that the link..? I searched "VCC" inside of the website to find no results

[pale thorn]

Ya I can't find it. searched for 10 minutes, didn't find any link for it that has "vcc" in the link

[white vigil]

How can I have permission to make my own avartar with unity?

[junior void]

Nothing is stopping you from just downloading the package and importing it to unity. It does not have to be through vcc

[pale thorn]

Ik, I just did that. just wanted it to be in the packages screen so its super easy to import everything all at once

[junior void]

https://spokeek.github.io/goloco/ (click it, dont try to add this in vcc)

[pale thorn]

thank youu

I just couldn't find it.. sorry..

[fathom lintel]

when I freeze and unfreeze VRC constraints to the world, their behaviours is very inconsistent. sometimes it teleports back to the rest position, and other times when moving to a constraint position the rotation is offset incorrectly.
I've tried both with and without rebaking offsets, but haven't been able to come up with a consistent fix.
is there a method of making it work like the old system of grabbable props using the old constraints?

[tough token]

I have set it all up but its not appearing ingame when i toggle it on

I really have no clue why

I made 2 other toggle props before this the same way and they work fine but the new prop isnt showing up

the only thing different about it is that it has an extra module called Raygun Fire attached to it

which plays a particle animation and mp3 when you do a hand gesture while prop is on

[junior void]

Have you tried debugging this in play mode?

[tough token]

wym

[junior void]

Use gesture manager, which can emulate playing in vrc to a certain extent

You can then use it to toggle the item on and see whats going on in your parameters and animators as they happen better

that seems like a better solution than uploading each time after tiny changes

[tough token]

i can try that

how do i toggle on the gesture manager

nvm

[carmine jay]

Anyone good at weight paint? I don't know how to make it so the dress don't look weird when I'm moving around

[tough token]

uh why does my playmode look like this

cant really move the camera like scene

[carmine jay]

switch to the scene tab

[junior void]

nothing is stopping you from going back to scene

[tough token]

if i switch to scene and toggle on anything nothing happens though

i figured it only happens in game tab

nvm its bc my dumb ahh had it paused my fault

i still dont understand why this isnt working

i mean

everything should be set up correctly but turning on the raygun in the radial menu does nothing

[junior void]

right

so in gesture manager you have a debug menu

look at it

find the raygun parameter

is it being driven yes or no? start there

[tough token]

uh yes

[junior void]

Now you need to look at the playable layer this is taking place at

look at what the animations do in the responsible layers - does it play the on-animation? if so, check the animation itself and check the path of said animation (often ppl rename things and this causes the animation to no longer find the original object as it goes by names)

[tough token]

As far as I can tell everything is correct

when the Raygun paramater is true for some reason the Raygun ON module doesnt activate

even though the transition condition is Raygun = true -->

figured it out

damn

[little sun]

How do you make an animation activate with acceleration?

I know how to set world based particle systems etc, but what if I want sparks only my feet that only activate during movement

I feel like I remember that being added like a year or two ago I just cant find it in the unity sdk

is it like a parameter in the fxlayer?

[tough token]

id assume the X by speed options would be where you set something like that up but idk

i havent touched those

[sweet crypt]

anyone else unity taking forever to load packages in

[mortal oar]

yes if you are up

hahah

nevminnnndd my bad i was asleep however i get off work is it okay if i add you

[winter edge]

I'm trying to make a prop grip animation.

What could cause the animation from not animating however it's clearly running when I'm testing it with gesture manager

[timber wharf]

toggles go into fx

gesture layer only for grip animation iself

[winter edge]

I do have the toggle as an FX and the gesture layer for the grip animation

It's also when using gesture manager I can't seem to pose my hand gestures either.

[proven dome]

so im trying to upload an avatar for quest and cant find my pc version of the avatar on unitys content manager but i can see it on the vrchat website. is there any other way to find the blueprint to my pc version of the avatar or to possibly find it on content manager? thsi has been a issue for quite a while

[left wharf]

If you can see it on website, copy (your avatar's bpid) in https://vrchat.com/home/avatars/(your avatar's bpid) and paste it to pipeline manager on quest version of the avatar.

[proven dome]

OH

oops, thank you so much!

[raven orbit]

you may need to put an Animator Tracking Control that disables the finger animations (then another one that toggles them back on when the toggle is off)

[barren wharf]

hi

i want to go back to the og shader my avatar used but i have since closed the unity project and can't go back

[ornate stump]

To back to where?

[barren wharf]

the original shaders

liltoon

i switched to poiyomi

i want the exact settings it used

[ornate stump]

Then you import the original material from avatar package back.

[torn trellis]

i transferred the weights from the body to the clothes but its not working plz help

[winter hedge]

I’m new to blender and I need help with something : I’ve been trying to shape avatars but without the mirror modifier I can’t. My character has a lot of fur on one side of the head but with the mirror modifier on I can’t make it otherwise it looks very odd how can I fix this?

[raven orbit]

can you be more specific? or send a screenshot, because it's not clear what the issue is from that description

[winter hedge]

Yep I’ll grab a screenshot

basically say i wanted this point on one side only. i cant turn off the modifier otherwise the other side of this shape will dissapear

disappear*

[raven orbit]

yeah thats how modifiers work, you have to apply the modifier to edit both sides individually. when im working with an object that's mostly symmetrical except from some small details i hold off on modeling those asymmetrical details until i'm done modeling everything else. there's also a mirror option in edit mode that will apply edits to mirrored vertices, but it doesn't work well with asymmetrical sections.

[winter hedge]

Oh alright! Thanks so much for the help!

[raven orbit]

other symmetry options are here

[winter hedge]

Yep I understand better now, thanks so much!

[spark walrus]

Anyone have any idea what this error is, I can't open any unity projects? I did a clean install of both unity 2019/2022, as well as updating visual studio.

[slate goblet]

Is there a way to somehow increase the parameter synced data limit? It's on 264-5 I believe and it gets filled up so quickly.

[night ember]

no

[hard turtle]

wheres the document defining what gestures are tied to what?

[inland seal]

How to make an animation loop itself forever?

[granite ledge]

anyone know why avatars getting 2 different ratings?
in the Avatar List and on the Homepage the Avatar get marked as Very Poor but the Info and in unity it says Medium.
Its not the only avatar i have this strange problem.

[arctic ginkgo]

enable loop time and never exit the animation state

[raven orbit]

if you mean the parameter values, its on this page https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/animator-parameters

[inland seal]

Ye, I already fixed that. I just forgto to retype

[hard turtle]

nah like what gestures are tied to 1 - fist 0 - hand open that sort of stuff

[raven orbit]

yeah, its on that page

[quasi briar]

Unity takes a guess at your avatar's performance but it can really only be decided once it's built. There might be animations that have material swaps, for example, which increase the number of material slots, but unity doesn't take this into account - VRChat does though.

[granite ledge]

but the rating in VRChat itself is different too.
in the Preview it says Very Poor. But the Details sign says Medium and all stats are not even near Poor or Very Poor. (even if i would count every Material on the Avatar)

if i use the Avatar other people also see it as Medium

so only on the Preview and on the Website its marked as Very Poor

[quasi briar]

Thats weird for sure

[arctic ginkgo]

What does it say is very poor in the avatar details? You can tell what statistic is in each performance ranking based on its color in the avatar details

[granite ledge]

its Medium in Meshes but everything else is Good

even if i use Thrys Avatar Evaluator it gives me no infos why it should end up as very poor

and i has no VRCFury setups or anything.

[feral thistle]

Hey there, Im having some trouble with my avatar on unity. I'm unable to actually click on any of the physbones on bones on my avatar to test them.

Is there something I have disabled thats causing this? I have pretty much every setting on the physbone settings to make it grabbable.

[little sun]

Can you make a parameter that is active when you are moving your character?

[balmy barn]

detect velocity trigger stuff

[little sun]

So its a trigger style parameter? Where do I set that up? Is there a link to the vrchat documentation on it?

[balmy barn]

https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/animator-parameters/#parameters , you can enable debug ingame to see your movement speed

[night ember]

only have one camera active in scene

if you have more than one camera enabled it breaks

[feral thistle]

Gotcha', Thanks for the heads up

[little sun]

Thank you

[warm depot]

does someone know the name of this model?

[night ember]

#1138520828556890214

[warm depot]

oh, sry for posting here

[little sun]

Would somethign like this work?

i just want a particle effect to come out of my shoe

I dont know if I need to set a cap on velocity somewhere else

The 3 transitions are just for X Y and Z

so any of the 3 will trigger it

[heavy zephyr]

If you just need a particle you don't even need this. Just make your particle system emit over distance

[little sun]

wow, that was incredibly easy, thank you

i didnt even know that was in the emission

[heavy zephyr]

The more you know hehe

[lethal patio]

Hi, is anyone else having an issue getting avatars under the limit for quest compatability? Is unity increasing the size of things? The same avatar I uploaded a few weeks ago is suddenly much bigger, without anything being added to it.

[balmy barn]

if you use vrcfury ectect it will add things , just do a offline build to see uncompressed/compressed , can easy get my quest avs under 10mb

[sleek zealot]

Hello! I'm trying to set up an object on my avatar to be grabbable by other players . I've tried with a physbone on a bone in the object as well as with the object parented to a constraint containing the physbone, but I've only been able to get it to rotate in place and not stretch to follow the hand when grabbed. How can I fix this or diagnose what might be wrong?

[hearty stump]

How do I put a retuxture on a texture swap thats already on an avatar

[night ember]

put it on the material

[hearty stump]

I can't find the material for the alt texture

[night ember]

what

[hearty stump]

I can't find it

[night ember]

then you should probably go find it

[hearty stump]

Well thats kind of rude to say don't you think I kind of already tried to look for it😭

[night ember]

you put the texture image on the material

so you kinda need to know where it is

[hearty stump]

I know where the texture image is and I already put the texture on but I don't know if it also applies onto the alternative texture that came with the avatar

[night ember]

what

if you didnt put it on the alternate then no

[hearty stump]

Well I can't find the alternative material thats the issue I looked for it duh but I can't find it

[night ember]

cant tell you where it is since its your project

[hearty stump]

Where would you find the material for a texture thats on a avatar that has an alternative texture on it where would I find that texture

[raven orbit]

in the assets folder

[night ember]

again its your project so we cant tell you

[main stone]

Hey guys I need help, my idle animation doesn't work, I looked for the avatar locomotion and added the new idle animation to replace the regular stand animation but when I go in vrchat only the hands move and the avatar is still using the default stance, is there any other way to make my sway idle animation work properly?

[hearty stump]

Im gonna send a screenshot of the assets folder cause I looked there aswell and I didnt see the alt texture I will aswell send the avatar link so that you guys can understand

https://therpgslayer.gumroad.com/l/akami?layout=profile

[main stone]

I just renamed the animation, hopefully it works

no matter what I do in the avatar controllers the stand animation won't change, yes I close vrchat and open it again btw

[raven orbit]

not sure what your animation is supposed to look like, but one thing that might be important to know is that the tracking states (as seen from the avatar debug menu) can affect animations even on desktop. i know in particular the head will be kept locked to your view so long as head tracking is on. you may have to disable tracking using a state behavior for that kind of idle animation to work. also, you might have better luck putting those animations in the gesture or action layers

[main stone]

The animation looks like this btw

How do I get to the avatar debug menu?

[hearty stump]

I put the eye texture on the eyes but it wont show up

Its suppose to be red eyes btw

[raven orbit]

the avatar debug menu is visible in game, but it's only useful for viewing the tracking states and other avatar parameters. what you need to look into is animator state behaviors and setting up your own animator logic. you may also be able to plug in that animation into the additive layer but im not sure how that would turn out

[main stone]

I tried the additive thing and it turned my avatar into a pretzel, how do I disable head tracking so the stand animation works?

[raven orbit]

https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/state-behaviors/ Animator Tracking Control

and yeah i dont usually mess with additive because i got no clue how to use it properly without it doing... that

[prisma sedge]

Are you using gogoloco or just the base vrc animation controllers?

[main stone]

The avatar I commissioned has gogoloco but also the avatar controllers called "Selestia avatar locomotion controller" or something like that

The avatar base is オリジナル3Dモデル「セレスティア」ver1.02 by STUDIO JINGO

The avatar has it's own stand, I replaced it and the gogoloco but no luck

Again I commissioned this avatar from someone, I have no idea what they did

[prisma sedge]

Could you show what you replaced in that locomotion controller?

[main stone]

One sec

I put the animation in these and everything else that said standing but nothing

Again I don't know if the guy I commissioned connected the controls or what 💀

[night ember]

your computer has a screenshot tool

[supple needle]

How do I get off this screen 😭 I’ve no clue how I got here

[worn kiln]

maybe press play button on top?

[supple needle]

I tried, didn’t work

[worn kiln]

try this

[supple needle]

This worked. Thank you

[worn kiln]

[mortal oar]

i bought an avi off booths and im not sure how to upload it

[lilac mulch]

Hey, I'm currently trying to upload a model for someone that has the visitor rank, but also has vrchat plus. Shouldn't I be able to upload since they got vrchat plus even though their rank hasn't reached new user?

[night ember]

vrc+ doesnt just bypass the rank restriction

all it does it give a small boost usually causing you to go up a rank

[lilac mulch]

So google lies

got it

[main stone]

I know but I had to use my phone, my internet went out so I can't send the screenshot from my PC, hopefully my internet comes back on 💀

[robust dirge]

Anyone know how to fix this?

[round herald]

There is a missing script in ur avatar u need to found by typing pc(clone) on ur research bar in ur Hierarchy and delete

can someone help me pls.. i'm doing an edit of my avi but everytime i try to upload it on vrchat It's staying in T-pose

And idk why....

[night ember]

you need to rig it as humanoid

[round herald]

i've done it already..

[flat granite]

help

[round herald]

Ur rig is all messy

[flat granite]

]

[round herald]

U have to grab the right bone from ur avatar and put it on the rig

[flat granite]

what

[round herald]

Let me get u an exemple

exemple Hips have to be Hips

[flat granite]

ik

[round herald]

Yeah but in ur rig Hips is Armature

[flat granite]

help

[round herald]

What avatar is this

a picture of ur head rig ?

[lofty plank]

any clue why tf my viewpoint is upside down??? i cant rotate it or anything, wtf do i do lol

its normal in unity but in vrchat everything is upside down everything else on the avatar works just fine

[round herald]

And ur hand is good ?

[flat granite]

yeah

i fixed itr

oh suddenly its fixed\

awesome

[round herald]

Yup it's how rig work

[flat granite]

it always does that ;;

[round herald]

Yeah it's why i have a big problem too and i had to redo everything

[steel drum]

Does anyone know why it keeps automatically disabling my sender/receivers under a prefab?

[main stone]

Try looking at unity adjusting hight and view point by pupsvr on YouTube, that tutorial should help you get your view point fixed

[lofty plank]

the video show how how to set the viewpoints rotation. no matter how i move it on the avatar its still upside down theres only x y and z. the viewpoint isnt outside of the head its exactly where it should be just its fully upside down

heres what it looks like in game facing forward. its the only avatar that does this

[main stone]

Your view point is inside your head, try slightly moving it out and in front of the hair by clicking and dragging it

Sometimes the head collision can cause a viewpoint to go upside-down

I had this happen with my old x1 daring model at first

[lofty plank]

colliders can affect the viewpoint? thats odd

[lofty plank]

i see i see

[main stone]

Yeah I hope this helps 🙏

[lofty plank]

lemme try to adjust the collision see if it works, thank you homie🙏

[main stone]

No problem and good luck

[lofty plank]

tyy!

[lofty plank]

i deleted the head collider and any others touching the viewpoint, its still broken 😭

[main stone]

Again try moving the collider itself out of the head slightly

[lofty plank]

i did, i tried that first then i just completely deleted it

[main stone]

Also check your Horizon Adjust that might be it

[lofty plank]

its the only avatar doing it

all the others are alright and my avatar is right side up in all mirrors

[main stone]

Man I never seen such a glitch before, one sec imma see if I can find something on Google

[lofty plank]

thank youuu, ill continue to search too!

[main stone]

I just realized in the picture are there two view points or just one?

Wait never mind I see it's one, sorry the arrows confused me at first, again I shall find something

Only thing I found was this, you may need to create a new view point and delete the old one

I wish you the best of luck 🙏

[lofty plank]

just one, thats the avatars hierarchy movement thingy

[lofty plank]

ill try to mess with the descriptor more, years of unity work and this is the first bug like this

[lofty plank]

oh my god so i found the issue, dumbest shit ever. i accidently put a camera component on something while adding physbones like a dunce WAAAY earlier and forgot to remove it lmao. thank you so much for your help sorry for the trouble!! 🙏🙏

[main stone]

It's no problem, I'm so glad you got it fixed, I hope I get my issue fixed as well 💜

[lofty plank]

i hope you figure your stuff out too!!

[balmy lantern]

Is there a way to significantly cut down on model fbx size? Some of my personal models I made which are heavy usually never exceed 10MB on disk but one I encountered recently weighs about 40MB on disk for roughtly similar stats like poly count and such
(I already tried mesh compression in Unity and I never got it to as low as I want)

[main stone]

Click on the eye material and find the blue eye texture, open the texture picture then use photoshop to edit the eyes, save the picture then it should show up on your avatar, I hope this helps, I did this with my commissioned avatar to fix the eyes and face scar

[hearty stump]

I made an edit already and then added the texture I made to the eyes and it only shows the star not the rest of the retexture

[spark walrus]

Hey guys, I need some help for my Girlfriend. She is trying to work on an avatar and her unity project is causing her issues.

[ornate stump]

There is no iOS target option for the sdk. Do you mean build for android?

[balmy lantern]

There is! You first must install the iOS module for Unity and then where you select the build target in the SDK, iOS should appear. It's just that it's optional

[ornate stump]

Good to know there is an option too.

[balmy lantern]

If you already uploaded the model, iOS (and android phones for that matter) does not support very poor avatars. It MUST be poor or below in order to actually use

[burnt plank]

can anyone teach me how do i fix my clipping problem ( the knees )

[junior void]

I remember that picture, werent you here before

Rather than asking the same thing, tell us what you tried?

[torn hound]

hey so, i want to make the wheels on this move in a circular motion when i am in motion, but stop when im stopped. does anyone know a very simple / cut to the chase for this type?

[simple ocean]

is there a fix for the viewpoint syncing to unity?

[left gull]

is the avatar/model's feet floating or underneath the origin point in unity/blender at all? that tends to cause viewpoint issues

[simple ocean]

this looks like its above ground

wait nvm i found the culprit

[mortal hill]

i made a avatar in vroid but it has alot of bones and is unoptimized can somebody help me and show me how to opimize it

[balmy barn]

shove it into blender using cats its a few clicks its now alot better statwise (less drawcalls , no useless bones, optimize steps would be adding hair bones/ect to root groups)

(blender 3.6 cats one)

if you use that vrm converter in unity expect a mess

[mortal hill]

yeah i have been using the converter

it had liek 60/30 on some stats xD

thx for the tip

does blender 3.6.9 work aswell ?

[balmy barn]

Im using that one

[mortal hill]

👍

[balmy barn]

got blender 4.2 but it has one script that not updated yet or id switch to it , 3.6 cats > https://github.com/teamneoneko/Cats-Blender-Plugin-Unofficial-/releases/tag/3.6.8.3

[flat marsh]

someone pls help

[burnt plank]

i tried to add using modular avatar and it didnt work

[junior void]

"tried to add" - add WHAT

[burnt plank]

add modular avatar

[junior void]

How is the clothing attached to the avatar?

[burnt plank]

vrc furry

[junior void]

Then what did you think modular avatar is going to do

both vrcf and modular avatar are toolboxes that do almost the same things

anyway, if you can find the toggle of vrcf, you can add another action and set the action to blendshape

[mellow nebula]

I’m working on re-texturing a VRM model to use as an avatar, but I don’t have Substance Painter. What I do have is Procreate on an iPad. It’s supposed to be able to paint 3D models and export textures. Has anyone used it like this before? Any pitfalls or problems I should watch out for?

[mortal hill]

@balmy barn what settings do you use in the Look section of vroid before exporting ( Outline and Rimlight )

[balmy barn]

thats all i use

[trim ingot]

Quick question if anyone knows I am setting up these alien parts and am I supposed to click toggle or set up clothing

[dark jay]

How do i fix the head jiggle i switched to another avi in the end to show the difference

Lmk

[somber meadow]

There’s a physbone on a rig defined humanoid bone

Either move the physbone component or enable IsAnimated on the physbone component

[sharp kayak]

is it possible to make a toggle to change where this is located?

[somber meadow]

Viewpoint can’t be animated. Could you explain what your primary goal is?

[dark jay]

Are u sure as i didnt put any physbones on the rig defined humanoid bone

Only thing its on is the hair earring and skirt

[somber meadow]

Type t:vrcphysbone in your hierarchy search and look through the results

If anything has its root on something like your head bone or any other humanoid bones it’ll do this

[dark jay]

I checked it yesterday ill check it again when im on my pc

[dark jay]

Just a question if its not on any of it then what else could it be

[sharp kayak]

if that was a response to me, it's to change the view

so the snout would or wouldn't show

[quasi briar]

It cant be animated. Even if it can, the VRCHeadchop component will remove the snout automatically since it is under the head bone. You could use that component to allow the snout to show, but Im not sure if this is animatable either. It might be

[sharp kayak]

well if that's so, i have no idea what any of those words mean 😭

[quasi briar]

There is a component called VRCHeadchop that you can add to your avatar's root. It will allow you to show things that are on the character's head in first person. Normally they are removed but you can show them. So you would do that instead of animating the viewpoint. However im not sure if this component can be animated either.

[dark jay]

nothing is on physbones other then earring skirt and hair checked again

[somber meadow]

could you show a screenshot where the physbones are

and what the components look like

[dark jay]

oh wait i just noticed

[dark jay]

i plugged in head to the hair physbones my bad didnt catch it until now

[pearl ore]

anyone know why my hair is almost like using a fallback shader in the personal mirror and transparentish in different lighting, but on a HQ mirror its normal

[burnt plank]

does anyone know how do i enable it

[somber meadow]

click the checkbox next to the name at the top of the inspector

[burnt plank]

it syas this

its this now

[somber meadow]

Gesture Manager should be on it's own seperate object

delete that component, and click Tools > Gesture Manager Emulator on the toolbar at the top of Unity

[burnt plank]

it worked tyvm

[raven orbit]

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong here. I've put an audio source on my avatar but the issue I'm having is that for other players the audio volume doesn't seem to roll off completely no matter how far away I am from the other user. The volume changes slightly with the ranges I put in, but it's nowhere near to 0 as I would expect. What settings should I be using?

[raven orbit]

nvm i forgot to ask google first. this was the fix

[wooden cairn]

Trying to figure out how to sync up my PC and Quest VRCFury Toggles
So, for example, I have two hairstyles on PC that are not present on quest
Do I just delete the toggle components for those on Quest entirely?

[pale cloak]

does anyone have the link to download wholesome dependencies

[left gull]

pretty sure as long as the Quest and PC versions share the same parameter list it should work between both (iirc you can have params on your list that arent used in your layers and it should still be uploadable/work)

[wooden cairn]

Right, that works right now, but if I hair swap on PC I go bald on quest

[left gull]

are they using the same animations for their toggles? like ones still on the model that wouldnt work due to removing the mesh?

[wooden cairn]

I'm not quite sure what you mean

They're simple VRCFury toggles, which generate the animation clips themselves

[left gull]

ah didnt realize you were doing the whole process via VRCFury

[wooden cairn]

Aye, should have clarified that

[left gull]

i know nothing about that stuff, good luck though! :P

[coarse pewter]

Does anyone know how to turn off animation that were activated by contacts?

[mellow nebula]

I'm starting to think that it is going to be next to impossible for me to customize an existing avatar while working from MacBook. Does this match everyone else's experience? A MacBook is all I have right now.

[somber meadow]

you can use Unity on MacOS, Apple Silicon and Intel

if you want something like VCC, you can use ALCOM

[open flare]

Can anyone help? I can’t figure out how to enable android player on VCC

[sharp kayak]

does anyone know how to find and how to put animations on an avatar?

like dances for example

[somber meadow]

Press CTRL + Shift + B, click the android tab, and follow the instruction on installing the Android Build Module

[idle jetty]

Does anyone know how to make avatar props placeable so other people can pick up

[raven orbit]

i've heard the only way to do this is to put the prop at the end of a stretchy physbone

[spark walrus]

Issue, My constraints on Mobile are well in limit but when I go into VR all the extra arms just t pose. PC works just fine but mobile has the t pose problem. I tried removing some of it but didn't work

Looks like this on quest

looks like this on pc

[frozen goblet]

Does anyone know the original creator of this gojo avatar??

I can’t find it anywhere

[raven orbit]

https://ptb.discord.com/channels/189511567539306508/1138520828556890214

[spark walrus]

additional help too, physbones only affect 16 bones. Tried setting it to animated to see if that was affecting the arms somehow but it didn't work

[atomic rapids]

Does anyone know how to edit/fix this? I'm a bit of a beginner and I've been confused of this thing.

[spark walrus]

did you export the material from the model?

If not, try that it should let you edit it

[ancient tinsel]

Thought this might be a vrcfury thing at first but after some testing it seems that when exporting from blender to unity causes some of the radials/toggles to have issues for example this radial that increases/decreases butt size normally would also ingrease/decrease the bodysuit bottom size but after exporting it from blender it no longer works

[wooden cairn]

Can you adjust the blendshape on the bodysuit by itself?

[ancient tinsel]

there is no blendshape for it as it is/its supposed to adjust with the scale of the butt

I looked at all previous clothing and they all seem to not have a blendshape for it and would adjust based on the butt's bone scale

[dusky harness]

I want to padlock a model that freezes the model unless you know a code yet i don't know how to make it

[tidal summit]

anyone know why it wont recognize my parameter? I made sure the word was matching with every other word

[echo halo]

does anyone know how to make ear bone to rotate for a contact receiver im trying to make a headpat contact an only the ears rotating doesnt work is it cause they have physbones?

[wind pelican]

why is this failing security checks...
0 warnings, perfectly optimized, literally just a minecraft horse

it only fails the checks when i try uploading for android. is there anything i need to update? everything is up to date in creator companion, including the sdk

aalright nevermind, it worked on the 5th attempt.

[burnt tangle]

Why is it telling me that my avatar doesn't have a head hands or feet?

[plush mural]

Hi

[near nimbus]

So hi

i know this isnt serious

but my avatar is crouching weirdly and i dont know how to fix it

help pls

[prime agate]

I made an animation for a toggle that disables posing on multiple physbone components I have. However when I go into playmode, posing is automatically diabled on these physbones without turning the toggle on. Is what I'm tyring to do not possible or am I doing it incorrectly? I have similar toggles that turn off physbone colliders, however they work by disabling the entire script not a part of it like I'm doing here.

[raven orbit]

yeah i think a physbone component has to be disabled in order to animate anything on it

[tranquil niche]

Hey all! I'm working with parent constraints and was wondering if there is a way i could prevent the object from moving and rotating to fit the parent when i do so, I say this because the object i want to make grabable is a shoe and i don't want to spend ages trying to match the grabable shoe's position up to the "actual" shoes position if that makes any sense

[spark walrus]

Not sure if this is the right place but how do I calibrate foot tracking? Using quest and lighthouse manager

[main stone]

How do I get my idle animation to work? Someone said something about playable layers being on the bottom right of my unity but I can't see it, can someone tell me in complete detail on how to get my custom idle animation to work?

[heady raptor]

i know the 2 axis supports up down left right center how do i get those inbetweens to work?

[main stone]

I can't get my dance animaton to loop, I made a emote but it keeps freezing and putting my avatar Slightly in the ground, still can't get that idle animaton working either, why must vrchat be so hard 😭

OK I got the dance to work but my feet keep going through the ground when I break dance, also I'm thinking of just making my idle animaton a emote instead smh 🙃

[heady raptor]

is loop activated in the animation itself?

[main stone]

Yeah I fixed the dance, the idle animation though still no dice, made it a emote for now 💀

[flat marsh]

still need help

[iron kindle]

Anyone know of any good tutorials for Animator controls? I keep breaking them when trying to make something from scratch

[left gull]

the errors saying that you're missing scripts and listing what bones they're on

there should be a requirements section on the page's storefront that'll link to whats required (or its something you missed in the instructions .txt file if it came with one)

[cunning swan]

why is my imposter big when my main size is 1.53

[hard turtle]

what would yall change about this model :P this is my second fully fledged 3d model so uh i wanted to know how i did ig

[junior void]

Where do i start...

[main stone]

Looks nice tbh

[hard turtle]

next thing ima do is remodel the fur since its the only reason its not a 1 material avatar atm lol

[junior void]

Personally i would shape the jaw sides a little more, bring up the tip of the nose and the dip to the back of the nose between the eyes down, as it seems flat like a duck beak. I would also redo all the hair in separate cones. I'd redo the eyebrows, they look messy and way low on the eye lid. The eye itself could take a little shaping as well, its very round. Eyelids dont make a round shape, rather oblong horizontally, thatll help with the hypno-look it has rn

[hard turtle]

yeh i need to redo the hair lol, and the eyebrows are being reworked rn tbh because i suck at eyes

[junior void]

Try a shape like this?

[hard turtle]

im like, trying to avoid that. idk im experimenting still lmao. ig im just using this model as an excuse to explore a bunch of different ways of executing the same task

i want the eyes to be foward facing but for furry models it seems to create a uncanny look no matter what lol

[junior void]

The way the eyes are facing is based on the shape of the skull

if you make them flat forward, youll end up with a boy head with a snout

[hard turtle]

yeh i also just cant seem to fathom how to make eyes at an angle because im stupid

im getting really tired of screwing up the eyes over and over and over again lol

[junior void]

pretty easy if you think geometrically

the iris facing forward is your point of orientation, that should be a little flat, the rest smoothes out around the shape of the eyeball

[hard turtle]

im relatively happy with the heads over all shape because it has the silly dumb stupid guy vibe, but the eyes, its the damned eyes.

[junior void]

well, you asked

[hard turtle]

ye ima try the eye thing, do you shape your eyeball aswell?

[junior void]

No, its a perfect sphere of which i cut the ass end off as its always inside the head anyway and doesnt need topology

[hard turtle]

currently this is just

ik its bad

how ive been thinking of eyes

so its always been relatively flat

i tried to adjust it initially by like moving the cheek up

but if i can move it more out to be spherical would that solve that issue of the sphere never fitting?

sorry im bad at explaining

[junior void]

I would shape the backfacing corner out and around a little and see what that does

bringing the cheek up will only squish the eye and you never see the sclera, which realistically, you should see a bit

[pine ivy]

all geometry is a part of one mesh, when i export from blender to unity (cats .fbx) the mesh of the orbs disappear stop existing. i have removed the orb's weight from its blendshapes (the bones still remain) i use poiyomi uv tile discard to toggle them, which do not disable the meshes (proven by the hat outline)

[junior void]

Have you tried setting backface culling to off under rendering?

[pine ivy]

in blender?

i turned backfaces on in unity and they dont show, it is a mesh problem not rendering problem

[junior void]

No in unity

[pine ivy]

when i drag the mesh into the unity scene by itself the orbs show

as well as the model

copied the skinned mesh renderer component values onto the fresh model and the orb meshes disappear

figured it out :p every blendshape is affecting the position+size of the orbs

in blender when in edit mode, the orbs go here (the orange dot on the left) and no blendshapes are selected

i will just remake the orbs :p

[hard turtle]

youd make the eye that harsh?

ill try it lol

[junior void]

^Look at my own image above for reference

[junior void]

This is my own avatar from scratch, first one

So yea, i would go there

[pine ivy]

to solve my own problems, there are 2 ways to add new mesh to a blender model without blendshapes being much of a problem

1. create a new blendshape, and select that blendshape while creating the mesh (did this with the orbs)
2. combine the new mesh with the main mesh (did this with the hat)
   it is quite handy for optimizing to have all geometry on one mesh

[junior void]

You dont need blendshapes for that. Blender doesnt like it when you add or remove any geometry on a blendshape.

[pine ivy]

blawg i just said how to do it in a way that blender likes

[hard turtle]

blender just predicts it relatively to whatever its base is

so just make sure your bases are accounted for and your usually fine with making manual tweaks here and there to adjust for scale on meshes :)

[timid rock]

please can someone help im trying to upload this avatar and when i press on build and test it doesn't do anything and the progress doesnt do anything

[steel raven]

My legs keeps disappearing in gesture manager

[junior void]

If you look closely, you see the legs arent gone, they just shrunk extremely. This is often done for clothing to avoid clipping. Have you deleted any clothing? Maybe the animation that assumes them on is active by default. You'd know what you did. Depending on what youre using, this could have to do with a toggle made with modular avatar or vrcfury or a manual fx layer animation

[steel raven]

I do use modular avatar

and vrcfury

so what should i do to fix it?

[hard turtle]

for a second attempt at an avatar is it atleast a good one? lol. idk if im gonna change the eyes on him, cause im growing fond of the stupidity of it but thankyou so much for all the advice youve by far been the biggest help so far regarding eyes lol.

[hallow forge]

how does one make an avatar im currently on pc and im planning on getting a quest in the near future

[broken glade]

Does anyone have a eye mask for the god magician avatar to make eyes black??

just the back of the eyes

[hallow forge]

?

or more like how do i even do anything here

[timid rock]

where do i import vrcfury is it in assets

[spark walrus]

PLEASE is there anyone that can help? I have everything set up, how do I get my feet and waist calibrated steam vr? Quest 3 headset, lighthouse manager using space cal to calibrate htc vive trackers all enables and base stations as well

[oblique delta]

You should reset vrchat or update

[hallow forge]

I joined some world and got myself an avatar though does it save?

[oblique delta]

Yea probably you had other game u can't playing vrchat

[hallow forge]

Nah i got another avatar from a world after i sent this message

I just wanted to be goku ☠️😂

[oblique delta]

😂

[languid pawn]

in terms of a contact system
how would i got about this ?
the character has dual swords that can become a bow. curious on how the controller would be formatted if possible ;;

You should become real fish lol

[tame badge]

How do you weight paint clothes onto an avatar that is not in T-pose? I've been trying to put a nut cracker outfit on my friend's avatar thats default pose is like... a T-rex pose and I'm having difficulties because the creator of the nut cracker outfit DID follow industry standards, its hard to fit the t-rex posed robot into it.

(As an aside this is why you should follow standards like this, because My friend's avatar is not in T-pose it is vastly more difficult to work with)

[junior void]

Pose the avatar to be in tpose first

[tame badge]

Every time I try to do this it ignores the new pose for weight painting or rips the skeleton out of the modle

God I hope there isn't some horrible 95495644563456 step process to change the default pose

Change the pose manually --> Weight painting flat out ignores the pose.
Forcibly change pose with reset default pose or manually editing bones --> Bones are ripped out of the base model.

[junior void]

if you use cats blender plugin, it has a very convenient button to apply a new pose as rest pose

[wild egret]

How do I properly add the Modular Avatar package in Linux via VCC CLI? (there is no GUI on linux for vcc)

I added the repo via vpm add repo https://vpm.nadena.dev/vpm.json and then in my project I added the package via vpm add package nadena.dev.modular-avatar. Both were succcessful.

But when opening the unity project again, it shows errors succh as this one:

MAMoveIndependentlyManager.cs(637,14): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'BurstCompileAttribute' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Can someone give me a hint on what and how I can resolve this?

[timber wharf]

add or update burst unity package, it loves to be messed up on fresh installs

perhaps.

[wild egret]

I switchted to ALCOM and now the projects opens correctly.

[heavy quail]

Hey I have a quick question, is there a way to reduce the physbone transform count without having to edit the armature and redo the weight paint?

I wanna make an Android version of an avatar and I don't wanna redo the entire armature and remake the physbone components if possible

[split peak]

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

this is the log if it helps

Found a "solution" that kinda dosent make sense, and I had to load all my scenes on to be able to upload my models.

[rugged crow]

"Searching for an avatar editor"
Please dm me

[swift kraken]

hey so

it's been an hour already and my thing doesn't wanna create a new project, like i'm not even opening the unity portion yet. it's just stuck there

[spark walrus]

Re-download it VRChatCC

[swift kraken]

i just did! still stuck

[heavy quail]

I just uploaded an avatar, the upload was successful BUT when i try to use it in game, it loads forever. When looking above myself to see the download it says "server processing" and i'd like to know why and how to fix it

[high slate]

same , server issue

we need to wait

[heavy quail]

oh alright then

i thought it might have been a corrupted file or something

[sudden helm]

Yeah I am also having that issue too. I am stuck on server processing then it ends up with "error"

[hushed wyvern]

same here

[random rover]

happy to know it wasn't just me with this issue, just went to ask about it XD

well, guess it's just time to wait lol

[eternal crater]

Why has my avatar been stuck on 'security checks pending' for well over 5 minutes?

Make it 10 now, actually

[high slate]

server issue

[eternal crater]

Alright, thank you

[spiral scarab]

hey do you (or anyone else for that matter) know if theres somewhere I could check the status of the servers? thanks

[somber meadow]

They don't have realtime metrics for the services responsible for avatar processing (security checks)

This site exists https://status.vrchat.com/, but the statuses are manually changed by the staff

[spiral scarab]

oh rip. is there any estimated time frame for these sorts of outages?

[somber meadow]

not until they acknowledge the issue in #server-status

[analog belfry]

i have a qeustion is there a problem with avatars turning in to robots when uploading?

[torn pollen]

Oh thank goodness, I was freaking out thinking i couldn't upload.

is there a server processing error going on?

[analog belfry]

no clue one upload was fine but when i switch and switch back it turnt in to a robot again

[torn pollen]

Saaame, every other avatar loads but when i try to upload again this wont load

[worn gyro]

Oh thank God it's not just me

[lapis crescent]

yeah if the avatar isnt in the cache it doesnt load its something with the vrchat servers

[deep sparrow]

does anyone know how to fix this

[gentle drift]

Anyone els have rn when they upload an avi the security check pending keeps being stuck

This same avi worked a few hours ago i only added physbone to my tail

[somber meadow]

read the chat above

[cunning swan]

My avatar is stuck on a question mark

[worn gyro]

That's the same thing as what he showed, just how vrchat displays it

It's happening to me too

[torpid stone]

yall wtf is this im losing my mind just trying to finish a commission and cant even test it.

[gentle drift]

Yea same

Thats security check pensing

[worn gyro]

Vrchat servers shat themselves

[tropic spade]

read above last 5 or so messages

[torpid stone]

LOL

Alright cool glad it isnt a me thing!!

[turbid spire]

We know everyone has

[worn gyro]

Same thing for everyone

[tropic spade]

[turbid spire]

ooo

oki

glad I didn mess it up

[deep sparrow]

does anyone know how to fix this

[turbid spire]

sorry if that was redundant asf

[tropic spade]

your PackageManager is dead

reinstall is my best guess

[gentle drift]

Wen fix or no one knows

[turbid spire]

I thought it was a shader error initially

[worn gyro]

We don't know until vrchat staff addresses the issue in #server-status

[turbid spire]

it broke at like 10 am this morning

[torpid stone]

bro literally L game atm I am in a time crunch

[gentle drift]

Oh

[worn gyro]

I was in the middle of avatar testing bro I'm upset

But whatever

[torpid stone]

Yuh

[deep sparrow]

its a fresh install btw this is my first time trying to upload a avi

[cunning swan]

ur not the only one

shits broke

[torpid stone]

vrc server borked

yipppeeee

[earnest wind]

so im trying to do some toggles for my avatar, and im running into a few issues...

• Colour Swap: my alt colours (the black and white) are (somehow) the default palette, where it should be the inverse (red and black should be the default). the toggle defaults to ON in Gesture Manager, though its supposed to be OFF. i made sure to set up the animation and the animator this way.

• Prop: i have a sword toggle that is supposed to be in my hand when the toggle is ON, however, the sword is in the wrong position when testing with Gesture Manager. when the Animator is recording, the avatar sinks into the ground and i moved the sword into the avis hand accordingly, but of course, the sword is not in the right place.

both toggles are ON by default, and specifically with the colour swap, nothing is happening.

does anyone know how to solve these issues?

[torpid stone]

tf is this

[proper depot]

For a short skirt, if I wanted to have the skirt move freely, like the ends of the skirt has bones, would I want there to be any weight on the leg bones? Or would I let the only weight be on the skirt bones ( Other than the hip ofc) and just use phys bone colliders?? If that makes sense

[tall pumice]

🤔 I want to take a head off an avatar, add a new blendshape, and put it back on. But when I export, change it in blender. And import, then set the mesh, the head is microscopic. I think this has something to do with the units being different in blender / unity? Any ideas?

1. Import the fbx to blender
2. Single out the head using / and modify it
3. Export it and import it into unity
4. Go to the head gameobject and switch the mesh.

And I can't really resize it in unity because it's attached to bones or whatever

[molten pulsar]

Just use colliders and mabey angle limit

[proper depot]

didnt even think of using angle limit 🤦‍♂️ tysm!!

[molten pulsar]

Hmm could be export settings, have you tried to export using FBX all ?

[tall pumice]

In blender? Yeah I'm exporting with fbx

In blender im importing directly from the folder in unity that has my fbx

And the fbx in unity is sized just fine

[proper depot]

Maybe try exporting the head separate and import it into the scene rather than importing into the actual folder too :0 ? I have issues with my unity whenever I try to reimport a mesh, it could be having something overwriting it causing it to become small like that

-from my experience

[tall pumice]

When I drag the head into unity it's sized fine, but the issue occurs when I swap the mesh on the already existing head gameobject.

[proper depot]

Unfortantely sometimes reimporting a mesh can cause this issue 😅, I suggest getting pumpkin tools and just transferring everything over to a new fbx, or just on the head.

[proper depot]

This is from a project where I reimported the mesh, reimporting just breaks it sometimes

[molten pulsar]

the fbx all and mabey check leafbones would likely fix it

[tall pumice]

Just tried that, now it's scaled properly-ish but the head ends up being high up

And using the original mesh

(Same game object just changing the mesh in the skinned mesh renderer)

perhaps i should take the head mesh throw it at 0 0 0 and apply scale in blender

hm well applying scale and rotation it's now in the waist and facing upside down

[quasi crypt]

so i need help i uplad an avatar for a friend of mine and her avtar on her end is floating on desktop but when i on vr chat the avaar doesnt flat how do i fix it

[molten pulsar]

attach it in blender not unity

[tall pumice]

there are a lot of different phys bones and stuff i cant really just export the whole fbx change it and go through and re-add all the physbones

gonna take ages

i got the origin and the position nearly perfect for the mesh, just gonna stick with this

now when i import and change the mesh it's slightly in a different position but good enough

I think the reason why this is happening is because it has to be the same distance from the root bone

which is the hips

nvm dumb idea it's still pretty off and i dont wanna keep going back and forth between unity and blender moving it centimeter by centimeter, no clue what im gonna do haha

[molten pulsar]

import the head in blender and put it on the body from there

[tall pumice]

im importing the whole model into blender, and editing the head. then exporting only the head back to unity, and changing the mesh on the vrchat model

[molten pulsar]

export the whole thing unless you just want the head

[balmy barn]

+1 mesh and a funny bounding box wich can clip at angles

always fun to see those avatars and clips their stuff off just looking at them funny

[tall pumice]

i want to only change the head on the avatar, like said previously it imports perfectly sized. but the issue occurs when i swap my actual head mesh out in the skinned mesh renderer

[tall pumice]

after switching the mesh even though i never changed the position of anything when importing / exporting

It's obviously somethin to do with the root bone aspect, as dragging the fbx in directly it's perfectly sized / in position / rotation

[raven orbit]

if it's too high up after swapping it then it seems like you need to be putting the head closer to the origin point in blender

[tall pumice]

yeah i kinda just.. have to keep inching it downwards and setting the origin point to world 0 0 0 until it gets into the right position

[raven orbit]

seems more like it would need to be surrounding 0,0,0 in this situation

[tall pumice]

This much distance between the origin and the head looks like this, just gotta keep moving it down till it looks right lol

Setting the origin to the center of the head leaves the head sitting at 0 0 0 in regards to the hip root bone

[raven orbit]

kitbashing like that sound confusing as hell. imo its literally easier to setup everything in blender and copy over all the physbones and components manually. but, to each their own i guess

[tall pumice]

there's just like a shit ton of physbones everywhere and components so.. i dont think there is a easy way to transfer everything over

all just to add a new blendshape to my head

[raven orbit]

im used to copying the components over 1 by 1 manually, though i also dont set up 2312423547685 physbone components on my avatars

[balmy barn]

pumkin tools exsist just copy settings from one mesh to another (long as you didnt do alot of wierd things in unity)

physbone/materials/gameobjects ect

[raven orbit]

is it able to copy properly if i've changed the armature hierarchy?

[balmy barn]

if a bone changed name / more or less bones it will create a gameobjects instead, shouldn't shuffle a hierarchy in unity , been times i had the 'wops bone name changed' ( s now S exsample)

it has alot of options doesnt need to do all of them

[raven orbit]

i meant changing it in blender and importing as a new object

[tall pumice]

what

they give you instructions typically

[junior void]

Beginner tutorials will do the trick

[tall pumice]

So I import the entire fbx to blender, make changes. drag it into the scene. and use pumkin tools to copy all the components over

[balmy barn]

if its identical ,otherwise you get game objects with its components

[tall pumice]

kk yeah all the gameobjects will be identical im just adding new blendshapes to my head

[crimson heath]

custom avatar ive put together from blender has finger bone messed up in game, but looks fine in unity 😭 its been a while since ive put anything together so it could be a very simple fix i havent thought of
(ive tried looking at the avatar's bone assignments and reimporting the fbx from blender.) additionally, doesnt happen when in play mode in unity

[tall pumice]

Works pretty well besides 1. Materials not changing. And 2. Animations not working for whatever reason?

Though once I start the play, some of them switch to poiyomi from standard.

[sharp nebula]

Soo i've encountered an issue where the Creator companion won't let me create a project due to the project location being stuck in an invalid spot and it wont let me change the location nor add existing projects to it

[tall pumice]

But yeah it's just tposing and doesnt react to velocity changes in the locomotion

Fixed by adding an animator to the gameobject, still not sure what to do about the materials though

[tawny juniper]

Very simple to solve probably but currently trying to make my own booth rindo and when I’m trying to change the hue of the hair the pink inside the ears and the white fluff changes too, I’m wondering how I can exclude those from changing colour so I can make a hue shift

[molten pulsar]

I would put the texture in photoshop or gimp and hue it from there and then exclude the parts you dont want color changed, that way people will see correct colors even if they have shaders for non friends disabled

unless you want a hue slider

[tawny juniper]

Yee a hue slider

I don’t mind if my avi is automatically hidden as I’m mostly in privs with friends

[molten pulsar]

you can do the same and add the exluded parts as another main texture

not sure how to do that in poiyomii tho

but i know its possible

[tawny juniper]

I’m using liltoon

[molten pulsar]

yeah then cut out the ears you dont want changed and add them as main color 2 or 3
and then make the hue slider oon main color

in PS or gimp

or something similar

[tawny juniper]

I’m rlly dumb when it comes to this stuff sorry, I’m not sure how to do that

I mainly use procreate

[molten pulsar]

can i dm ?

[tawny juniper]

Sure

[chilly obsidian]

I'm having some trouble uploading this avatar, it's and avatar that has a ton of sounds on it and I'm adding some songs too it aswell. I've been getting this message when I try to upload it, and I wanted to ask what the real limit is on sounds (If there even is one) and what is that limit, because I know the "Maximum: 8" is a lie.

[tall pumice]

how is that a lie

you have a max of 8 audio sources

[chilly obsidian]

Before I started adding the others, the avatar already had around 25-30 audio toggles, way above the "Maximum 8" thing

[tall pumice]

there is a difference between audio sources and audio files

you can have a billion audio files and 1 source

What it shows for me when I have more than 8

Er actually that shows regardless of count I believe

Yeah seems like it has a max of 8 sources, and will limit it to 8. But after you have so many it'll just yell at you and say you 100% cannot post it what so ever

Idk how it is for vrchat, but for unity atleast. you shouldn't have an audio source for every sound.

Since this is vrchat you might be able to animate an audio source to change it's clip

[arctic ginkgo]

animator play audio state behavior

[magic quartz]

Hiii! I need some help! Does anyone know why My Avatars chest bones slowly expand?

[merry garden]

I need help creating a avatar. the avatar I am making is a hand puppet, I have the bottom anchored to the ground & I want to make it so the phys bones follow the tip of my avatar as seen in the picture provided, the problem i am having is that they just won't follow the top, does anybody know how to fix this?

the avatar in question is a hydra from the half-life 2 beta if anyone is wondering

[kindred flint]

heyyy anyone know why i am not able to download 2022.3.22.f1

[abstract vector]

you should be able to get it through the link of "archive" versions in the unity hub

https://unity.com/ja/releases/editor/archive

but either way u still need unity hub to be installed on ur machine

[kindred flint]

are there any spsific moduales that i need on 2022.3.22.f1

[abstract vector]

for unity itself, i believe no
for repositories those are managed in the VCC so it have not much to do with unity itself

[somber meadow]

If you want quest support, install the Android build support module

just by itself, none of the submodules are needed

[kindred flint]

thank you so much for the help!!! one more question where do I find all of the poyomi toon shaders im looking for Poiyomi Pro 7.3.50 to 8.2.030

[somber meadow]

You'll need to subscribe to Poiyomi's Patreon ($10 tier) for Pro

[abstract vector]

from my case, it default checked out the android SDK when i install it

[kindred flint]

thank yall so much

[abstract vector]

but for free i believe it have a githob repositioy at here
https://github.com/poiyomi/PoiyomiToonShader/releases/tag/v9.0.61

not sure if it works the same way with pro

[sand spade]

I'm trying to import a FBX into Unity and when I try to rig it, It says avatar creation failed and shows an error. I'm relatively new to uploading an avatar from scratch in unity. Can anyone identify this error and what I need to do to fix it? Is it a blender issue?

[somber meadow]

You have a mesh named "Head", rename it to something else.

[sand spade]

Thank you.

[kindred flint]

Hey so my creator companion is bugging a bit

[placid mica]

How can I fix this? It's for Quest

[tribal quest]

Transparents unfortunately don't work for quest, I'm sorry. At least as far as my knowledge goes lol (Which isn't very far.) Maybe someone else will have a solution! :3

[kindred flint]

Yall know why my creator companion isn’t opening my project

[bronze niche]

Any VRC Fury users? I created a toggle for a handheld item. Now I want to pose the hand to hold the item. I click the option to add an animation but there is no option to choose the avatar's animator and pose the hand.

(The issue is probably something embarrassingly silly)

[placid mica]

I know they work with the additives/multiplier particles but I want to remove this entirely
Its an animation that requires a specific shader on PC, but on quest it just appears like this

[gloomy flint]

try VRChat/Mobile/Particles/Add? That 100% works for Quest and no it doesn't mess up your frames. I've used it, multiple friends have used it.

[placid mica]

Yes, I know. I just said I know about it
But its like, not clickable in the quest version
So I'm not sure how to fix it

[gloomy flint]

to remove the tear thing you could just find it on the hierarchy and delete it, and if its not there, find it somewhere in the fb

[placid mica]

In the place it is in PC, its not on Quest. yet, it's still showing up?

[placid mica]

What is fb?

[gloomy flint]

what i'm wondering is why are you converting the model to quest when Deco Neko comes with a quest version,,, 🤨

[placid mica]

It's not a conversion, I'm editing the colors

[placid mica]

U can see its all blue

I uploaded the quest version

[gloomy flint]

let me check smth and get back to you bc it sounds like you want to delete the tears bc its a shader that 'only works' for pc

[placid mica]

Yeah. I appreciate it!

[placid mica]

But what is a fb? 😅 sorry idk the terms yet lol I'm still new to this all

[gloomy flint]

fbx-

[placid mica]

ooh. okay, I know what that is but I also dont know how to use that lol

[gloomy flint]

how did you manage to get a pc only function on a quest version of an avatar????

[placid mica]

WAIT I think i know what I did

[gloomy flint]

oh i found it,,,

[placid mica]

I added the PC and QUEST packages into one prokect at first

And they merged together in the scene and I had to completely restart but I'm still using the same project

maybe thats why?

[gloomy flint]

,,, no,,,

i think the avatar just kinda came like that,,,

[placid mica]

Oh
I didnt test it beforehand so maybe

oops I didnt mean to reply

[gloomy flint]

idk about you but ive seen some popular avatar makers drop in quality lately and release pretty broken avatars (an example is Pip from Novapie)

[placid mica]

I wouldnt be suprised, but I'm not too mad
I did find a solution being that I can just replace the texture of the face overlay with the tears, but then, you know, the face overlay will just be tears. lol. noo more blush

[placid mica]

Aw thats a shame, I thought Pip was cute
I dont have her, though

The quest version works awesome but this was only pointed out to me when I wore her and my bf was like why are your eyes pink lol cuz he's on quest

[gloomy flint]

wondering if you could just delete the Sad animation,,,

...

i mean yea if youre fine without having a sad face just go ahead lmao

[placid mica]

I was thinking about that, but I'm not sure how to do it #1, and #2 I'm worried about messing something up, again

[gloomy flint]

go to animations, go to Faces, find Sad, right click, delete

[placid mica]

I've found out the hard way that if you accidentally delete something you weren't supposed to, your whole project can get screwed.

[gloomy flint]

ull be a-okay

a gesture will just no longer be tied to a face emotion which doesn't really break anything

and it'll only be for the quest version too so 🤷‍♂️

[placid mica]

Shame, really
Oh well

[gloomy flint]

the only other solution would be figuring out how the animation calls up on an entirely non-existent texture and material and making a new slot for that

which would then mean importing the missing texture and making a new material slot to fit it,,,

[placid mica]

Damn near gagged even thinking about trying to do that

[gloomy flint]

valid

kinda sucks when things like this slip through the cracks, you could always contact LilMissPasta herself for fixes

[bronze niche]

can the tear meshes be created?

[gloomy flint]

its just the texture part

[placid mica]

Here, let me show more screenshots

[gloomy flint]

the PC version uses textures for tears, and so would the Quest Version, it just doesn't.. have... the textures lol-

to save on material slots and optimization bc iirc LilMissPasta likes to use animated textures for tears?

[placid mica]

This is on the PC version, this is entirely missing from Quest

[bronze niche]

since alpha doesnt work on quest, tear meshes should be created, just saying

[gloomy flint]

you can have transparency on quest 🤨

[placid mica]

I'm not sure how to do that

[bronze niche]

using the particle shader, its very limited

[gloomy flint]

yeah, for colors, and tears like these are usually one color on a gradient, which it works fine for

you just need to tinker with it a weeeee bit, but it'd work fine

the issue is that LilMissPasta removed the entire Tears part of the avatar but then left in the gesture calling for it lmao

despite removing it for optimization, which is lowkey kinda funny-

BEST solution Polaris is to just go to LilMissPasta and ask for some help, quickest solution just remove the avatars ability to look sad :)

no crying ever just happy times only :)))

[placid mica]

Pff, I'll see what I can do
If all else fails I will ask her
Thank you for the help!

[gloomy flint]

np!

[bronze niche]

if you change the shader to standard how does it look?

[placid mica]

So, when I change the shader of the face overlay it does nothing to the tears

However, when I try to texture the tears by dragging and dropping, it changes both the tears and the face overlay

AHA

i just fixed it!

[gloomy flint]

you managed to figure out what material the gesture was trying to call?

[placid mica]

Yes!

I had to get like,,, WAY up in there

All is fixed now

[gloomy flint]

howd you fix it?

[placid mica]

I just kept clicking and eventually it showed me the layer, or whatever

[gloomy flint]

lmao hidden secret layer technique

though another thing you could have done hilariously i only just found out is go into Gesture Manager, have your avatar do the gesture for the Sad Face, and you could have dragged and dropped your tear materials onto the now visible layer </3

or click on it that way0

[clear gust]

bad situtation

[placid mica]

Thats what I was doing at first, and it would change both the tears and the face overlay
So the tears would be fixed, but I would also have wet blush. Lmao

it was strange, but in the end its fixed so im happy

[gloomy flint]

i may be stupid but i think i found the proper solution

@placid mica you want to go to Blendshapes on the body, scroll down to find Tears (not Tears 2, just Tears) and turn that to 1. That will now show you the layers you need to edit. Make an additive layer for Top Tears and Bottom Tears (import the needed textures from the PC version), make a material for Top and Bottom (Remember, Additive.) and drag and drop them onto the now visible Tear layers, and voila

🫡

i will note that by doing this, which is the actual proper fix to the issue, your avatar will now be too big, so you might need to optimize textures a little bit

BUT

setting the compression for Tears Top and Tears bottom for Android to 128 will also fix that issue, and it's not noticeable because the tears are already almost invisible

so you will now have proper working tears that DON'T break your pre-existing face textures

personally i still think fixing partially broken materials is easier than having to fix broken physbones

999 stretch penguin giving me flashbacks i dont wanna remember

[clear gust]

Tested some things and it looked fine but think I gotta wipe the Rig bc that looks like the only issue 😵‍💫

[wild lantern]

Im trying to upload the quest version of my avatar and it keeps failing but im not too sure what these errors mean, anyone able to help?

its also not showing any errors in the sda window like it normally would so I have no idea wahts wrong

[junior void]

Looks like a standard api error

[junior void]

My turn: When using gogo loco to sit (any sitting position) while being in vr (standard half body), my hands dont move all the way down. When i rest my controllers in my lap, ingame it's displayed as if i hold my hands at roughly ribcage height, making it really awkward (i call it kitty mode). I have this problem with multiple avatars that have different proportions. Is there a remedy for it, like some settings i could try in vrchat itself or even ovr advanced settings?

[hollow spear]

can i use vrcconstraints for my 6 arm avatar and still work on quest somehow

i can always just make it 2 arms on quest tho

[balmy barn]

vrc constraints made to work with quest

[dusk elk]

what even is this

[left wharf]

you shouldn't auto-fix it. this will break your shader.

[dusk elk]

what do i do then

[left wharf]

you can just ignore (actually, that's not an "error". it's just "warning")

[dusk elk]

its not gonna let me upload it then

[left wharf]

then i think you have another issue

[dusk elk]

oh ur right so this is the one ig

[left wharf]

that's an warning too. but you should use recommended version.

[dusk elk]

the creator wrote that I use 2019

[left wharf]

oh your avatar is pretty old lol. then check your avatar's dependencies. if dynamic bones is one of them, you should remove or convert it to physbone.
If your avatar is created in Avatars 2.0, you need lot of work to upload. If your avatar is created in old Avatars 3.0(almost before 2021), you need some work to upload.

[dusk elk]

Got it Ill see thank youu

[torn pollen]

Anyone having trouble uploading again? I keep getting this error where my avatar is not "passing security checks"?

[left gull]

that might be an actual avatar issue rather then a vrchat issue, what platform are you uploading to and what do the stats in the upload panel look like?

[torn pollen]

well, the stats will look kinda funky i will admit, but that hasn't been a problem in the past when uploading. it's just this avatar. I'm not using the right Unity so i have that warning, but other than that it lets me upload.

[left gull]

being able to upload and it actually working in-game are wildly different and-

yikes

i suggest some basic optimization 100% but its likely the texture memory causing your security check issue

[torn pollen]

Texture memory...

Okay

[left gull]

this goes over how to lower texture sizes (credits to liindy)

[torn pollen]

Tyvm

I changed all the texture sizes but literally nothing changed for the texture memory. :c

[left gull]

it should be updating in the panel, perhaps try saving then closing and opening your project back up again and see if it updates

sometimes it gets a bit buggy

[torn pollen]

Okay, will do. Ty again for the help.

[orchid sorrel]

hello i am having some issues uploading the quest side of my avi as soon as it uploads the avatar becomes unavailable and security checks failed.

but if i simply leave it pc only i have no issues

[left gull]

what do your model's stats look like in the upload panel?

[left gull]

huh.. maybe try uploading it under a new Blueprint ID?

[jolly ingot]

is there a way to merge multiple black masks in substance?

[orchid sorrel]

but then that defeats the whole pupose of uploading it surly

[left gull]

how? i meant like try upload both versions under a new blueprint ID, its just to see if its a possible false flag or if its and actual avatar issue

[maiden phoenix]

So Ive been tryin to get this avatar to work for quest and my friends on quest say the physbones break to where my avatar has no physics like whatsoever but in unity the physbones were reduced to only 8 and should be fine theres no other errors with the physbones so what do I do to make it have physics for quest?

[left gull]

the error: phybone transform count is whats likely removing all your phybones you've got 106 where the max is 64 which as it says "will be removed at runtime"

overall you've got quite a bit of optimization to do especially in the bone department if you want to keep all those meshes moving

[sand spade]

Does anyone know how to fix this? In blender the texture is normal. But when I put the FBX into unity the material/texture is broken,

[raven orbit]

in unity see if you can select that material and swap through UVS

[sand spade]

Sorry I'm kinda new to blender/unity avi creation. I usually just buy them and upload. This is my first time trying to make my own avatar

[raven orbit]

i cant really explain that any further because where that option is depends on the shader you're using

[orchid sorrel]

aaaa okay

[sand spade]

would that be here?

[raven orbit]

yeah

[sand spade]

reee none of the options fixed it. the asset worked fine when I put it on a pre-created model. I just slapped it on there and attached it and it worked. TY for your help tho

[vapid holly]

can someone help me where do i lower the triangles from? the blender stats don't scream at me as far as i understand, what am i missing?

[raven orbit]

make sure read/write is on in the mesh import settings

[vapid holly]

ty!

[sand spade]

TY for all your help. I'm dumb. I have 2 shorts by the same creator and I was using the wrong texture 😅

[raven orbit]

oh yeah that'd do it, glad you figured it out

[sand spade]

Now I gatta learn to properly set up lighting shaders in poyomi to look properly in vrc with lighting etc.

[urban tulip]

wondering how to do this to an avatar and make the face blurry

[left gull]

it'd usually be done with a blur shader (or a shader that has a blur option) on a sphere/plane probably

[long sierra]

What is causing this error? Even after I reset the gesture menu and animators to default, it still shows up.

And the gesture manager emulator looks like this:

[iron kindle]

Does anyone know of any blender addons that are free that can help me remesh clothes to fit on my character?

[iron kindle]

Did you add any new physbones?

[left gull]

what do you mean by "remesh to fit" that just sounds like the sizing and sculpting tools provided in blender

[iron kindle]

Basically something that automatically reshapes a mesh to fit over anotther one in the same shape if possible

[left gull]

i dont even think theres something paid out there that does that let alone free

[night ember]

thats not even possible

[balmy barn]

shrinkwrap modifier but its very meh , better learn proportional editing

[night ember]

even more meh when the topology is too different

[vernal quartz]

There's a blur shader in the unity store (it's free iirc) and you just add a sphere or cube to your avis head and throw it on

[tribal quest]

I'm new to painting in blender. Does anyone know If I can create a fade from the brown color onto the cream collor? Sorry lol
Thank you!

[night ember]

you could take the texture into an image editing program (firealpaca is free) and blur the line

[tribal quest]

Yeah, that's where I started but then I ran into trouble with the seamlines and someone recomended me to use blender to get rid of it r-r

[night ember]

select the specific area on the texture and it wont be able to go beyond that when blurring

[tribal quest]

Yeah but the texture is split onto two different parts of the png. That's why I'm having trouble with the seam lines.

Sorry if I'm not understanding :3

[night ember]

weird uv but fair enough

[frosty summit]

dang no matter what avatar i actually try to upload, these 2 errors ALWAYS show up
😭 why am i the victim here

keeping in mind everything is updated on VRC CC

[urban tulip]

okay so when i look a contain direction the blur shader seems to disappear any fixes? its fine in unity but in game certain angles make it vanish

[spark walrus]

hey how do i select an item from the body in blender to delete it ?

is it ctr+L

i dont remember

[frail oak]

Hello, I have a someone who is having trouble with a part of their avatar in unity. It is a scarf, and the scarf can be posed and moved with its bones fine in blender, can be indepedent from the body etc. But when in unity, the scarf physbones do not work, adding physbones does not make the scarf move whatsoever, the other physbones on the avatar work just this one piece does not, if anyone has an insight, thanks in advance!

[left gull]

in edit mode select whatever part of the mesh you're trying to delete (Tab> C or just left click> cntrl+L) then delete (X)

[spark walrus]

tnkx

[turbid sable]

how do i fix this?

i makes my vrc panel grey

[left gull]

i could be wrong but i think the actual avatar errors listed in the panel are whats preventing you from using the upload information field

[barren plume]

Anyone else having this issue with unity
Where the arrows to move the object in the scene are far away from the actual object?

I was trying to add hair to an avatar and I've added this hair to an avatar before without this issue

[tribal quest]

I've tried a few different things now, anyone have any ideas on how to fix this seam other than trial and error?

[tribal quest]

It's dirrectly on a seam too

[glad dove]

Recently I bought a jacket asset and decided to delete some meshes in the theory of optimizing it, even decimating the jacket for optimization. It used to have around 500000 triangles, but after cutting the mesh and exporting it from blender to unity it gave me this:

how can i fix this in blender

im not that experienced

[barren plume]

On the png of your texture color over the lines a little

[tribal quest]

Alright, thank you! I was trying but I'm having trouble finding where they are, thank you though! :3

[barren plume]

Yeah if you just color on the model itself it stops right on the outline on the flat version and it causes those lines
If you color past the lines on the flat version it should stop those

[tribal quest]

I'll try real quick, thank you! :3

If that makes sense. I can get a pic of what I mean if not

To the project. Either add them to creator companion or if you have them downloaded find them in your files and just click and drag them into assets in unity

Do you have poi downloaded?

Add it the same way you import the avatar itself

That worked perfectly! Thank you so much! Idk wut I did wrong the first time though lol, I was trying the same thing a bit ago :3

[glad dove]

tried to import 2 seperate fbx files for a model that's supposed to be compatible for each other in Blender, but one spawned dead. What do

[maiden portal]

My Akyo avatar scrunches up when I play it in game. Had Gesture Manager on in Play Mode and it did the same thing. To the right is what it's supposed to look like. The only thing I changed was having no Animation Controller, but it still shrinks down in the game.

I see a big part of the problem. For some reason the armature is incredibly small. I have no idea how that happened

[viscid flower]

I need some help

I uploaded a avi to my account and it’s hands are frozen but stay in the same gesture it was put in before the avatar is put on

its not something that needs to be fixed in blender, if you expand the panel a bit more on the sides it should have a read/write autofix somewhere

i have a quick question,, does it actually matter if i upload the quest version before the pc version? bc i just got a warning before uploading that said that parameters might not sync up if i upload quest first 😅

[maiden portal]

Problem was fixed. Had to re-export the FBX from Blender, but I still don't know why the Unity Package I got from Booth had such a massive error.

[viscid flower]

Can I have some help

[turbid sable]

i need some help aswell, my unity wont upload any avatars, gives me errors even though everything is normal

[left gull]

ive uploaded quest versions way before ever uploading PC versions of my avatars before without issue so i dont think it matters too much, it might mess up stuff if your model is too intricate though

[left gull]

errors in the unity editor/hub or in the SDK panel/console in your project?

[viscid flower]

Pls

[turbid sable]

yes,

sdk and unity console

[left gull]
