U0, you said you were doing text display and game data collection (FPS and stuff) over a shader right?
#avatar-showcase

brisk portal
It is complete with only the Shader. This system uses two shaders: a core shader with OS-like functions and a display shader with text display functions. The processing part and the display use different Shaders.
FPS is calculated by the core shader and coordinates are calculated by the display shader.

If they use the same parameter it will switch, if the toggles have different parameters they will stack

how many different parameters did you use for your facial expressions? i only use one for all 8 of mine

You may be able to find it practically anywhere but on... that website with VRC assets that I probably can't name, there's this dude named Regi that uploaded every single animation from fortnite. The name is something like "EVERY fortnite animation"
how many different parameters did you use for your facial expressions? i only use one for all 8 of mine
@silver mesa only one for all emotes except the tongue out one, that's separate to keep it on

made a cute little detailed thumbnail for my AV3 avatar :)
works well for letting people know im on the beta lol
copper dirge
I didn't know how to make thumbnails at first, then i realized it was as simple as adding the image in front of the camera as a sprite... I had a pre-rendered thumbnail i made in Blender of my avatar i wanted to use instead of it being in-engine.
ember dock
i made a couple of scripts for thumbnail making
some of them made vrccamera automatically copy Main Camera
others put a shader that replaces the cameras render
acoustic viper
Is there any chance you would share your scripts/settings for this? I'd love to make my thumbnails more interesting
copper dirge
I did mine in Blender because i didn't want to export the background of the scene into unity due to the sheer number of assets.
abstract totem
i created Michael Myers from Dead by Daylight on AV3 https://streamable.com/i633m5
silver mesa
@abstract totem very cool!
But also you guys all realize that you could just make a background and thumbnail and then upload the avatar looking like whatever and then reupload it without the background and pose and check do not update image
acoustic viper
I usually do that but it's more convinient to be able to edit the image by yourself
drowsy topaz
Yeah you can always just pose it, take a picture, put it on a plane, and use orthographic on the vrccam to get a good look
acoustic viper
Huh, it was simpler than what I expected by copying the camera transform

https://github.com/Joshuarox100/VRC-Avatar-Scaling
I have a new release for you all! This update is centralized around usability bringing with it an entire UI for adding scaling to avatars. If you have a previous version of Avatar Scaling, delete it first. Additionally, if your avatar is sinking into the floor when you load in, delete your TPose layer and reapply your settings to generate a working one.
I do realize that this may break when AV3 is pushed to live. If it does, please give me some time to create a fix.

kinda a waste but hey its possible

@ember dock well those existed before sdk3 and they were pretty good

you arent wrong

and when people reload your avatar it doesnt sync
new version uses the stage parameters

well there are some niche uses where the expression menu doesnt really hel

so it sync when you touch things forever
u can even make your own mobile phone with a touch screen now
that syncs for everyone in the room

Cool Now I Can Have A 8 Track Music Playlist In Emotes...
sharp pagoda
yup Lmao
tired pine
Much more than 8 in fact, if you categorize them and your avatar is exclusively music playing.
8 submenus + 8 songs per menu is 64 total songs you could put and I'm pretty sure you could run them all off of 1 parameter (int from 1-64 with 0 being music turned off)
sharp pagoda
Looks at my entire playlist...... HELL YEAH
but you gotta make sure it disables the others though. so you cant enable all of them and have 64 audio sources going off at once
eager siren
8 submenus, then 8 left hand gestures with 8 right hand gestures for a 64 character array, 64x8 = 512, you'd have to get creative to get around potential variable limits though
and there's the size issue

if you want to just sit, you can fix that, but animate while sitting is a no go
its not using the animation chair has, but your sitting

Couldn't you put a parent constraint on the chair?
true needle
3.0 need to have their default ik changed for the chair to work, default it only disables hip/legs now
lunar berry
I don't use the prefab for anything other than the trail emitter @terse ice
I set a menu to animate the marker enable/disable, then all gestures except point to animate the trail 10k units down
It's probably easier to make new anims than it would to get the old prefab working anyway
on the plus side, we can have two markers with seperate controls, and swap fist erase out for a menu erase
true dock
@lunar berry the old prefab works the same way with zero effort, just remove the script and use the premade animations: drawing and eraseall and put it where ever you like.
lunar berry
Ah, good to know.
dire anvil
Made another tutorial, this time for facial expressions
I'm guilty of having some transform animations in certain FX layer stuff, and yeah it seems to work but in general its best practice to follow what vrchat suggests and keep them in gesture or action
someone else could probably explain it better than me xD
worldly lily
If you want a marker just animate the "emitting" property in the trail render don't do that dumb move 10k units thing..
example https://vrlabs.dev/item/marker?preview
just don't use the script we haven't updated it yet.

@tough locust FX layer should be used to animate transforms of anything not in the armature
it's perfectly fine to do so
final yoke
@dire anvil I just saw your video about face expressions. Mind me asking you about something?
I have observed an issue on my side that depending on the framerate, 5 to 20% of the current face expression is carried over to the next face expression forever, but only if the FX animator has at least one other layer (usually unrelated to face expressions) with weight 1 that is currently playing an active state which does not have "write defaults" checked.
I was wondering if you ever noticed that sort of thing happening on your side.
( if it matters, you can read more details about my observations here: https://github.com/hai-vr/combo-gesture-expressions-av3/issues/22 )

@woeful brook i have a similar sistem to that, i choose a color and i have diferent powers, red its a lava ground attack, blue its the basic one, i have a syce, soft blue its ice type, i shoot ice shards everywere, and im planning on doing even more

@iron bone ooo that sounds awesome
@woeful brook man one question, ive been puting all colors in diferent emotes
how do you put them in the same emote?
like you have the color emote and inside you have all the colors
this is my dial
translated is ice power and red power(i have to change it i know)
calm linden
@calm linden bruh how do you get such good animations?
@vocal storm Found this on here and then had help figuring out how to make it work. For this you have to hit the red record button in the animation tab, drag the poyomi shader onto ur model with this already configured. Then you have to adjust the start point in the Point to Point section near the bottom. Make the animation however long u want so long as you actually disappear and it looks good. Then you make an animation on the FX Layer and Action Layer. On FX Layer I made exit time 60 so that if i had to do something it wouldn't always do it right away. For action layer follow this guide as it explains some Behaviours you need to add. https://youtu.be/irIGodOda-c?t=206
woeful brook
So what I did was I made a gesture/animation that changes the material for each color, then I made a 2 axis puppet and put the animations in there
@iron bone
iron bone
i did the same but i put it directly into the menu
the thing i dont know how to do its how to make a sub menu-ish
woeful brook
Yeah thereβs a button for that
woeful brook
iron bone
ok isee
and could you send a pic of how you did the color H and color v? i have no idea of how to make that
sorry for asking
woeful brook
Youβre fine but you just need to make three parameters
One thatβs float and two thatβs the x and y axis (those are integers)
iron bone
dont know if there is a tutorial for that somewere?
woeful brook
Yeah I got you

normaly i just make this for every normal toggle, thats why dont know how to make those color Int ones XD

tired spruce
@ember dock Wut how does that work
ember dock
@tired spruce Viseme parameter
sinful sable
Didnt show everything, but some neat stuff π
tired spruce
How does the color hue stuff work?
sinful sable
Briefly; ColorHue is a float parameter. Theres a layer in the FX that looks like this. The ColorHue animation has multiple keyframes over time that change the hue of the material. The float parameter controls the timestamp of the animation per the value it has.
menu control looks like this
and this is that animation π
tired spruce
cool ty, how are you swaping the base textures on the fly like that?
sinful sable
one material has 4 textures tiled next to each other. animation switches the offset on the material to the appropriate value and the int parameter changes the animation played.
no exit time so the switch appears instant
ember dock
also some shaders already have a hue value
iron bone
Didnt show everything, but some neat stuff π
@sinful sable dammm thats super extense, your avatar must be super heavy man

acoustic viper
How did you make it choose a frame inside the animation? I did hue rotation with a blend tree and added animations that only had a single frame with one of the steps
(Also cute as heck avatar btw)
silver mesa
@sinful sable whats the song at 1:03 lol
sinful sable
stickbug lol
@acoustic viper Float parameter is set as the normalized time in the animation, see first screenshot. the float point is what chooses the frame in the animation so to speak
ember dock
not the frame
it moves the playhead based on the percentage
so 0% is the start, 100% is the end, and 50% is the middle
even if the animation is 1 frame long it works that way
exception for looping animations
need to turn off looping for it to work properly
orchid hull
So I'm still confused as to how gestures work
ember dock
its a controller
orchid hull
Do I just copy the Hand Controller
ember dock
also #avatar-help
orchid hull
and replace the gesture i want with my clip
ah sry
I'll go on their if you don's mind helping real quick wunder
silver mesa
Gestures are simple, create a controller make a layer for each hand, have default animation state and control the states by going from any state to each animation only activating upon the 7 variables avaliable for the hands
finite spoke
masks tho
dusky dock
The gesture layers are actually provided in the sdk, you can just copy the controllers from the "Examples" folder and apply how you want

As cool as that stuff is, i would rather not have my whole screen covered by a disorienting shader. It wouldn't be so bad if the shaders didn't block your UI, but still. Not saying those effects aren't cool, it's just I'd rather not see them in-game. So I'm kinda forced to play with custom animations and shaders disabled for everyone. That's just my opinion tho.
torn meteor
Yeah they can get really really annoying
I'd turn down the intinsity of all of that kenan
Maybe just apply the purple filter and higher contrast
All the fuzz and intense blacks and only seeing in purple will be extremely disorienting for people in VR especially if they aren't expecting it
pulsar garden
ya that is what will make me instantly block you ngl , it is the primary reason why i turn shader and stuff off as well.
it can cause a lot of sickness as well.

guessing backspace is not achievable
grim dagger
Each accessory and the shoe category includes a value of on or off. So each accessory has a value of 2 options and the shoes have a value of 10 total. so it's 7 tops x 6 bottoms x 10 shoes (the tenth is bare feet) x 2 ears (one for on, one for off) x 4 hairs x 2 tail x 2 glasses x 2 bracelet x 2 headband. Multiply them all together you get 53,760. Bachelors degree YO. lol

I actually want to ask how the plane controller was made
because i want to make some kind of drone in vrchat
indigo yarrow
same here
polar reef
^
celest knot
I used 3 rigid bodies to make it work, I suppose 2 would be enough but didn't check that, + another one for world space objec
I attached plane to an empty object (I call it engine) with both spring joint and fixed joint
and appearently if you change the mass scale of one of them to 2 the spring will infinitely pull on the object
propelling the plane like you could see it in various cartoons where they blow into sail to move the ship xP
leaden slate
So itβs the mass scale causing the plane to accelerate forward?
atomic shell
I made this work of art using vrlabs' playerlocal triggers to drive paramaters and change the audio, and the abyss shader from booth for the effect
naive warren
Woah those graphics
celest knot
Mass scale and the fact that the spring want to compress
pulsar garden
Damn I was trying to figure out how to properly add velocity to my plane. I tried come Jani hack with 4 root motion instead LOL
vagrant gyro
@celest knot thats so awesome!
finite spoke
@pulsar garden that's basically what you need to do. However, ran into some strange behavior while testing that I want to investigate further, and it might lead to a cleaner setup with root motion
pulsar garden
uh ya but the issue is if you use it on a children object
you can't controll the children controller with vrc parameter
thus u can't control the root motion right
my jank hack was u would use 4 children with a motion
then u would parent constraint it
then u would just do enabling that game object to play that motion instead
but since @celest knot discover of spring joint i swapped to thta
although i think you can have cleaner movement with root motion (if it work). it would work like a drone more than a plane/missle, but it might be troublsome to set up, it even possible
finite spoke
There might be a clean way, I am investigating it
pulsar garden
Oh, what r you trying
Speaking of which, are you aware of parameters driver does affect other people view on your avatar at all right
So if you toggle some animation using parameters driver, other people wouldn't be able to see it
celest knot
First iteration of the plane used root motion to fly but I noticed it didn't work in UDON worlds for some reason
also the very first one used position constraints endlessly propelling each other but that was extremely prone to desyncing
since position constraints are updating each frame so the more FPS you had the faster the plane would go
pulsar garden
How did you control when the root motion is played?
Assuming your plane is not root
celest knot
I used aim at constraint
now I'm using a configurable joint to rotate it
since rigid bodies
pulsar garden
no i mean
since your game object is a chilren of your avatar right
then how do you controll which root motion to play
unless im dumb and you can actually do it through the avatar controller

celest dragon
Not really av3.0 related, but more like latest changes made to IK made this possible with openvr space mover
small sky
@celest dragon is this someone that's just using 3 point tracking[HMD+2 Controllers]?
celest dragon
yes, that's oculus rift s setup. You can't do that on dekstop, and on fullbody, legs will be tracked so it'll look differently
basically, just try to move space while in any Menu. IK behaves differently now.
Without menu it behaves differently too, but ik-feet targets are always vertically below you at the ground whereever you move
while in Menu, it's the same but ik-feet targets stay at place where you opened Menu
you can do this too π€£
still, with just vr setup
small sky
You mentioned that it also behaves differently without a menu with the IK-Feet targets being vertically below you. Does that mean that if you move your play space up the feet still rise with the rest of the body or does it still have the same behavior of the arms pointing upwards ? Also those are some pretty comedic examples
.
celest dragon
Yup, the change is that feet don't stick at ground level anymore when you go upward with space move. They point downward, but they go off the ground. Arms aren't point upwards, they're at normal level they usually are while standing/crouching.
I know they're comedic, I couldn't find any other "serious" examples
small sky
Personally i paid more attention to them because they're comedic so it's great but i do have an additional question. What's the behavior like when lowering your play space below the present ground? Does it appear inverted and/or appear as if you're essentially standing upside-down?
celest dragon
When you go below ground level everything sinks down besides head and feet
so it's different than before.
small sky
Besides the head and feet? So as in the hips and arms are lowered beyond the ground with just your feet and head appearing above ground.
celest knot
I tried that yesterday and when I tried laying on side my hip was freaking out and tried to stay in place
celest dragon
Yea there is some new behaviour to hip rotation whenever hips hits some vertical position threshold relative to the ground it start bending/rotating which probably looks fine in normal use cases.
celest knot
On your videos the hip goes down, Iβd need to check again but for me it was going upwards if i put my face to the ground while menu was opened x)
celest dragon
That's true, it does bend differently while in menu, and differently while out of menu. These videos shows how it looks like out of menu
celest knot
I see
celest dragon
It indeed bending upwards while in menu
celest knot
Before the lates update it didnβt go upwards
small sky
Nice to know that prone idles can make this look different.
Since this behavior is different i am curious to check later if the hips rotation is no longer locked to facing forward when having a menu open.
celest dragon
The "bridge pose" is actually with menu so you can see hips were going upwards
celest knot
Right
calm linden
I miss the old AFK blue ring from the beta that would circle an avatar compared to now where they do that monk squat. Wanted to add some visual indication of AFK so I did. AFK is a particle effect so no matter what you will be able to see that AFK sign.
torpid sierra
I'm right there with you on wanting a visual indication that I'm afk; that's why I added a passive "save point" effect to mine after dissolving away. 
Great job on yours!
drowsy star
@calm linden Unless particles are blocked. Or shaders. Custom animations(Not sure how AFK works with that safety setting?).
Half the trick of animating in niche situations like VRC is accounting for how different your avatar may appear remotely and getting it to look as close to the same across most instances.
grim belfry
I am sure some of you have seen the GPU Particles that are controllable by gestures. I ported them to AV3 with more features, and created a tutorial over the setup.
The showoff is at the end maybe 3 minutes
This can also help as a first project for AV3 Animation Controllers.
ember dock
whats cool about avatar 3.0 is
even if people have your animations turned off they can see the humanoid ones
because they send over networked ik
so for one of my avatars i have them signing "BRB" in ASL when i go afk and another that just spells AFK

Here's a quirk unless they fixed it, toggle a object that you have on 3.0 avatar, then change your safety setting, it resets your avatar :p
grim belfry
weird
ember dock
bc it reloads the avatar most likely, also i dont use safety settings because if i do the game crashes when some avatars load
true needle
mines very strict, so im always at 40-60fps even in 40+ people world, that and i dont really want to see any particles
config.json is pretty much 100~
ember dock
well yea i agree i dont wanna see most shaders and particles but like
if i enable it it crashes me, and it crashes me more often than other users do by like 10 times

@calm linden Hey! Would you mind sharing that fade/dissolve shader owo
fierce scaffold
@distant kettle try the dissolve in poiyomi toon

@distant kettle @fierce scaffold it's the sci-fi spawn-in effect in poiyomi pro; the patreon version of poiyomi toon
calm linden
@distant kettle Its poyomi shader with these settings in the dissolve tab.
You also gotta do a unity animation that swaps a material (Hit red record button and drag the poyomi shader onto every part of the model). Rest is just FX Layer and Action Layer stuff with avatar 3.0

demonstration of the possibility of changing color sequence in game
every time you press a color, it will add that color into the sequence and cycle
example:
at the beginning, blue is the only color, so it appear as static blue.
After adding red and green, it will cycle blue red green in order.
finally, adding purple and yellow at the end create a color sequence of 5 , in the order of
blue, red,green,purple,yellow

@calm linden which version of poyomi do you use for the dissolve shader
vagrant gyro
@polar hornet its a patreon shader
fossil silo
hmm? dissolve is on the free version
you must be thinking of the spawn-in component, which is in the patreon version

@abstract coral how do you get that color?
orchid hull
@polar hornet you can join the official poiyomi server and grab the latest free version there, I showed GPUP what he needed to. Basically you set up the shader how you want it. Activate dissolve and set it up like in the image. Make sure that the alpha value on edge color and dissolve color are on 0.
Then you make an animation clip with dissolve at 0 on the first frame and for a smoother transition you set it to 1 at the two second mark.
Duplicate that clip, swap the first and last frame and voila you have 2 clips for in and out.

Work in progress animation. Unfortunately needed 1 or 2 more seconds. https://gyazo.com/0b8e247faf604d0ecf0556e96e107ce4

that's sick, how do you swap models like that? Do you just weight paint a second model to the armature and then animate it being enabled and the old one being disabled?
drowsy topaz
Yeah if two models share the same armature you can just have 2 skinned meshes on the same bones and easily swap between the two

And two different materials for the emission increase to try and get that illusion.
Little chip in it though so not entirely smooth. But I can likely cover it up or fix it.

@iron bone Uh by being a very bad boy, don't do that.

Figured out how to do color hue changes, needed the right button for it

my desktop cuddle emulator i made with 3.0 animators
calm linden
We did it boys, Reflex Shader is the GOAT for having a hue change function built into the shader itself
orchid hull
Poiyomis has it too?
calm linden
Not sure, I like Reflex cause its has the same outline stuff as Arktoon but Arktoon went rip
orchid hull
Understandable, this is first time I hear of reflex tho
calm linden
Can you get rid of VRCEmote, FaceBlendH, and FlaceBlendV?
OR do they always have to be the parameters
true needle
you want the emote if you ever use gestures , other not needed
left bone
poi shaders also have hue shift, as well as color selection
rain nimbus
you can animate any slider or variable so (technically) it could work
