Error When Trying To "Export avatar bundle" using VSF SDK

[glass rampart]

I do not know what this error is or how to fix it. Help is greatly appreciated.

Hmm you would need to convert vrc physbone too springbones

[glass rampart]

I forgot to put the console print out of the error

"VRC.SDK3.Dynamics.PhysBone.Components.VRCPhysBone",

UnityEngine.Debug:LogError (object)
VSeeFace.AvatarCheck:CheckAvatar (UnityEngine.GameObject,string&) (at Assets/_Shadedoes3D/Awtter VTube 3.0.6c/7) Process/VSF SDK/AvatarCheck.cs:295)
VSeeFace.ExportAvatar:ExportAvatarBundle () (at Assets/_Shadedoes3D/Awtter VTube 3.0.6c/7) Process/VSF SDK/Editor/BasicExporter.cs:18)```

Check how the spring bones are set up on the vrm avatar, it’s on an object at the root of the avatar

[glass rampart]

What am I looking for? I'm not experienced with VRM

Oh, I think it's the hairstyle DLC's bones being physbones

Or not

[grand coral]

Objects can’t have physbones since it’s not a vrchat upload

It has to use something called springbones which is similar

If you go to the vrm avatars and expand it, can you screenshot? There should be an object called secondary or something. That’s where the springbones are

[glass rampart]

I mean that the hairstyle DLC is currently using "dynamics" and the bones have the component "VRC Phys Bone"

[glass rampart]

The secondary has spring bones for "ears whiskers", "collar", and "tail"

[grand coral]

You would need to create one for the hair in a similar manner, and remove the physbone component

I've done that now, but I'm now getting a different error upon trying to export. When I press export it gives me an error saying that it can't export because the file I'm actively trying to export doesn't exist

Console print out

System.IO.File.Move (System.String sourceFileName, System.String destFileName) (at <eae584ce26bc40229c1b1aa476bfa589>:0)
VSeeFace.ExportAvatar.ExportAvatarBundle () (at Assets/_Shadedoes3D/Awtter VTube 3.0.6c/7) Process/VSF SDK/Editor/BasicExporter.cs:57)```

Keep in mind that Awtter VRM 3.0.vsfavatar is the file I am trying to create by exporting, yet it's saying it can't export because that file doesn't exist

[grand coral]

are there any other errors in the console after clearing?

[obsidian drift]

You could try exporting to a different path as it might not have permission to write a file I guess

[glass rampart]

No

[glass rampart]

This did not work

[obsidian drift]

Also if you go to the path mentioned in the error, is there anything you see?

[grand coral]

is there a vrm component on the avatar still?

[glass rampart]

Yes, there is

[grand coral]

I started a new unity hub 2019.4.31f1 project, imported the vtuber package, and it compiled, so something happened to your side and we need to figure out. Was it just a hair model added to the project ?

[glass rampart]

Yes, and then I used Poiyomi shaders because I wanted parts of the model to be reflective, which you can't get with VRM MToon to my knowledge

[glass rampart]

I'm thinking that I'll just make a new project and start over because I think something in my project has gone horribly wrong and there's no telling what it is or how to fix it

[grand coral]

Yhea was my next suggestion, make a fresh project and import, get export, then one by one make changes

[glass rampart]

That's what I'm doing right now. I'm trying to remember how I fixed the dlc hair not being attached to the head before. Feel free to help with this as well, I cannot for the life of me remember how to do it for some reason

[glass rampart]

Okay, I fixed everything and it's how I want it now.

Process went as follows:

• Start over with a new Awtt VTuber project
• Selected the Arkit Vseeface avatar instead of the VRM avatar
• Did all of the basic texture stuff
• Added hair DLC and followed this video tutorial to get it attached to the model properly https://youtu.be/0wxpUsqxpAY
• Changed dynamic bones to spring bones
• Exported using VSF SDK
