VRChat Thread v1 - "How do you make custom avatar?"
826 replies, posted
There aren't really that many restrictions overall when it comes to worlds, other then the usual "No scripts" and such.
Usually the only problem you'll start facing is that your world could get pretty laggy eventually, which some tricky optimization can help quite a bit.
Oh
nvm then
There is a "trigger" system that you can use to set up interactivity in worlds, but it is ofcourse not nearly as advanced as proper scripting would be.
A long awaited "Playmaker scripting" update is rumored to be releasing in the upcoming weeks, which should finally open up for some degree of scripting in worlds.
Yeah I'll hold off until then, thanks for the heads-up.
Giving world creators C# scripting is dangerous to the end user, not creator of the world. You could easily make a world that installs a virus to anyone who loads it with C# scripting. They used to have C# scripting allowed on worlds and avatars in the very early days of VRChat, but that was removed long ago.
I honestly wouldn't bother messing with interactive worlds until playmaker comes out. You can do some pretty cool things with just VRC triggers and animation state machines, but getting those to do anything but the simplest things is extremely convoluted, janky, and prone to memory leaks and bugs.
Yeah I know, that's what I meant. I guess I wasn't clear enough or phrased it wrong, I meant an opt-in where you could load into custom scripted worlds.

Is there anywhere to disable head relative movement and make it hand relative instead?
I've just figured out how to import avatars from things like MMD and holy shit is it addictive. It's cool as I'm sort of learning blender and unity too as each needs something to fix
Oh cool is that for body tracking? iirc you can do that with a kinect too, though it's not as good, I want to try it though
For standing around kinect works good, dancing is ok, but anything more complex like sitting/laying on the floor, spinning around or kicking or breakdancing is bad.
I really was in for the Vive pucks for a while, but there was such a huge delay in the shipments that I dunno if I want it anymore, especially since I am not on VRChat as much anymore.
Does anybody know how to fix this? I've imported a model which for a mouth uses textures that hide inside the face, when the blend shape reaches 93% ish it emerges out the front and appears as the correct mouth, if it goes over 100% it actually sticks out away from the model.
The problem with this is that in vrchat I have to talk unnaturally loud to get any of the blend shapes to appear. Would there be any way to sort of get that 93% to be something much lower like 10%, but then not have it go far forward? I dont know much about blender.

Met some VRchat friends in London and gave one of them this beautiful framed picture of my avatar's ass.

Evil grin and horror.
Anybody know where I might be able to locate VR demos in my area? I wanna try these things out before I consider buying them, because my glasses are really wide and might not fit.

Version 2018.1.2 is out, probably easier to just link to it rather then post all the notes here.

tl;dr
more camera stuff, menu's should now render ontop of everything, blocking should work better, mirrors should work better, chairs are gone.
I was on last night and there was this annoying asshole who just kept bullying and messing with people. He had an invisible avatar and no nameplate, two other guys are just yucking it up saying shit like "YOU'RE LITERALLY AMAZING" for making people leave and making an ass out of himself. It just made me really angry, some poor kid was getting bullied online and people were just laughing at it.
If they have no nameplate, go check the output_log in AppData\LocalLow\VRChat and either send the log to @Afromana or check the log and report the names.
Learning how to get custom avatars into the game is the best thing

You need to get the gesture for "A bomb!" in there.
Learning how to make a new world is turning out to be pretty fun too:
