Hugging a loli waifu

Last thread: >>201141657 (Cross-thread)

So where do you source your models, the poll:
http://www.strawpoll.me/14795116

First time doing this shit, how do i fix the hands clipping into the skirt and the feet clipping into the floor

I'm gonna get a Kinect for full body tracking.

Anyone know if it's better to get Kinect 1 or 2? As in, does Kinect 2 take considerably more processing power/ bandwidth to deal with the extra data it deals with? I want to be special and cute at the same time.

I can't get the sleeve to attach to the hand. What can I do?

>>201214424
"source" lol
also there should be an option like "I have done something much more complicated that resulted in eventually sending it through blender / unity" because the models I like are not MMD models and need to be decompiled / converted from other games

So I found the thing last thread the anon was talking about, not sure why its pink here, also that little error at the bottom

Where would I go to edit the colors of the textures?

>no decent mmd of this out there
this is a fucking crime.

My first upload! Spent way too much time trying to get Cubed's shaders to work with the model's atlas.

>>201214621
I'd consider this "download a model" with extra steps I guess. If you rip it and rig it or if you just download it.

>>201214868
Thanks for the virus

>>201214557
your cpu is not going to like it either way, when I use it with my kinect 1 it uses like 20% CPU power, tho the developer apparantly did optimise the program a lot lately.

>>201214557
I think one of them interfered with Vive tracking, so if you have Vive you should take that into account and take the other one

I can load into one world, and after that I get taken to an error world every-time. Anyone know how to fix this? Other people aren't having this problem.

Hugging a very needy loli last night.

>>201214579
Parent the sleeve and forearm bone

>>201214557
I mean. you could always just make some shitty tracksuit and sew in some infrared LEDs. That way you can motion track it with a regular webcam.

>>201214910
yeah but it's waaaay more work to add bones to a model and convert the file types and find a program that'll even let you decompile the files in the first place than to just download an MMD and drag + drop all the parts into blender and ship it off to unity. at least a BIT more work, maybe not that much relative to actually modeling a model. Come to think of it, why isn't that an option? My friend has a model he made, he works for video games!

Mask didn't like our plans.

>>201214846
what a fag

I demand headpats..!

>>201153409 (Cross-thread)
>>201154050 (Cross-thread)
Huh, this is unexpected. I went back to fix my model, adding more back bones and hands, but now I'm getting these issues and everything seems to be in order.

>>201215413
Nanachi I'll always give you headpets as Regu :3

>>201215403
wait anon you are the guy who hang out in haunted prison yesterday

>>201214846

>>201214826
*buuurp* uhh huh?? what was that? I don't understand what you're saying through your third world country accent. *buuuuuurp* *burrp*

>>201215553
No I'm not, sorry :3

>>201215518
you don't have the neck mapped dilther

It's kind of weird, The Particle Effect I set seems to keep the full world scale in the preview image. And has a different color than what the loaded model has.

Not sure why this happens. At least it works. Only goes a bit out from my body and fades and resets nicely.

>>201214846
Decentralized VRChat mod when?
Before it reaches 1 million users online, now is the time.

>>201214790
d-dont leave me hanging guys

>>201215768
VRChat is made by authoritarian San Francisco socjus yuppies, so no, that won't be happening.

Maybe if there was competition they would have to keep politics out of the game, but currently there's no reason for them to care what anyone wants.

>>201215549
>as Regu
R-Reg does it lewdly!

>Left: The character I was looking for
>Right: What was uploaded to Deviantart
This is fucking criminal.

>>201215228
Thank you, that worked perfectly.

>>201214702
How did it look in blender? I would assume you would just use the atlas texture you created and save it to UVMap and once exported to unity it would show.

>>201215887
Check the nsfw thread on >>>/t/

I will suck off whoever posts the dynamic bones torrent

Are the servers and friend list still massively fucked? I couldn't enjoy the game because it was simply unbearable even with all the fixes

>>201216051
literally google

>>201215908
I never implied vrchat devs should do it though.
It will never cross their minds, they probably want the monopoly and total control over their users.
Somebody else who knows how to reverse stuff could do it maybe.

>>201216051
literally use the archive

>>201216253
Huh?

>>201216051
You can literally google the filenames of the source files because people commit it to github

>>201216361

shit. I've waited very long for a second gen of VR to get my first headset and I'm going to sperg out if they're just trying to make a quick buck

>>201216051
16th reply.

>>201216558
Oh. Okay. I think the guy replying to you didn't know that either.

>>201216594
Given oculus is $400 they will never be able to sell the base headset above $800

They will try to reach the $1500 mark through accessories though. Wireless addon, trackerss, etc.

>>201216594
>999.99
They will do it.

>>201214816
>end up spending whole day working on models and logging into vrchat just to test them

I think i have a problem

>>201215413
Guess who I bumped into in the pug!

>>201216594
This isn't second gen. Even HTC markets it as essentially a 1.5 upgrade. Second gen will come out similar to the time interval between the Vive and Vive Pro.

Finally figure out how people took selfies. Do it in Unity and it works. Super proud of my work. Get in game and realize they had just got rid of it last patch. Why did they get rid of it, fuck it was cool af.

>>201216946
This is fine.
I'm going to buy it if it's $999.999999999, not if it costs even a cent more.

What worries me though is the constant memeing of "enthusiast" and "enterprise", so until they give a price I can only assume they have no plans to make it accessible.

>>201216594
Its not 2nd gen and its initially going to be released as an upgrade for existing vives

>>201217064
And guess who came in later!

>>201217272
They're definitely aiming at youtubers and "creators" in general.

How THE FUCK do you take the battery cover off of the Rift Controllers? I can't get them to slide off for the life of me.

Stop falling for this.

>>201215990
I don't know how it looks in blender since this was just a file I downloaded from the thread
I don't even know if I can use a unity file in blender

I still don't understand the body tracking thing, do you have a scheme that shows a generic VR setup with full body tracking included? something that shows position of the sensors, both on the body and external or whatever and everything else to get a proper VR setup that works.

>>201217064
o no

also how do you find decent worlds, i wanna interact with people.. normally
tired of the memez

>>201217910
even if its bait now.
deep down you know its coming.
normies will take away your lolis and implement a rape report function if you headpat someone without consent

>>201218182
Just luck I guess

>>201214481
You're not going to fix the hands clipping into the skirt without changing the idle animation. Clipping like that is the price you pay for having skirts.

FINALLY got my model finished but Unity keeps fucking updating itself so I can't upload it.

>>201218182
Seconding this, but I always run into empty rooms or russians. I pick rooms with high player count, close to max, but actually there's only around 3-5 people there.

>>201216158
The server is still fucked. There's all sorts of random issues. It definitely can't handle 12 concurrent users. They need to upgrade their shit.

Try reimporting the cubed shaders, fresh. Not just overwrite.

>>201218628
>>201214702
I actually forgot to upload the updated version with better ear animations. Give me a few hours until I'm home and I'll put a new one up.

>>201214702
How do you keep Unity from updating? As soon as I open a project it decides to update

Anyone know what caused this shadowed/tan look to the face textures? The rest of the body is the correct color. This also happened with a Yazawa Nico model I imported too, but the entire body had the shadow look to it in blender. I didn't do anything to them I just imported them and that's the way they looked. They look like that in Unity too. Pls help senpais.

>>201218902
Block Unity's IPs in your firewall. It will fail to update and move on.
I've been using unity offline since the day I've installed it, vrchat sdk still works fine since I didn't block vrchat IPs.

>>201218758
thanks anon

>>201218628
the cubershader I got was packaged with dynamic bones, is that whats fucking it up?

>>201218563
thanks ily so much bb

how do i deleted unity projects

After using the decimation tool in Cats twice, I would NOT recommend using it. It fucked the models up sooo bad.

>>201219179
maybe, but I dont see how a bone setting would fuck with a shader pack, if they are well sorted in their own folders and such

>looking on ebay for kinect + pc adaptor
>super expensive and adaptor is scarce as fuck
>don't know if my PC can handle the extra pressure anyway

>>201219179
Screw that actually here have the updated project ready to upload, fuck my mobile volume contract. If it shows a pink character delete cubed shaders from the Assets and reimport it. Make sure it has all components in the screne and detach the blueprint if you get an uploading error. If you click on the model there should be an avatar descriptor on the right where you can detach it.

https://my.mixtape.moe/bcccma.rar

The problem with the shaders for whatever reason happens when you open a foreign project folder. Do not reimport dynamic bones I'm scared that might remove the components I already placed on the model.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

>>201219543
they are sorted into separate folder
this blows

>>201219578
Don't even bother unless you have lots of space. My room is so tiny there's only one angle the leg tracking works for me, it ended up not being worth it.

>>201218902
there is a direct link to the to right version of Unity around guides for the vrcSdk. You're query is strange, i have never had unity try to auto update anything.

Is there anything that can be done about this? It took several tries to get the game to finally load in and when it did none of my avatars or worlds are loading in.

>>201219632
>Sorry for the inconvenience.
You are cute anon
thank you so much

>>201219467

They should be in your documents folder. Just delete those.

Dumb warehouse assholes put the wrong shit in the box. Complain to Amazon about it, provide pictures.

>>201219795
Well shit now this is happening when I tried to restart it

>>201219901
thanks

in 3D this looks pretty spooky not going to lie family members

>>201219467
>"...\Unity\Projects\Whatever Project"
All projects are stored in the Projects folder, just delete the folder with your project's name.
Keep in mind if you delete a project with assets you will need to import the assets again clicking the .unitypackage file and selecting the new project, if it was an unity package.
Textures and models can be imported automatically placing them in your project assets' folder, like:
>"...\Unity\Projects\Whatever Project\Assets\My Models\Model001.obj"

>>201219882
Rip hope you get this bullshit resolved

expensive gear man get that shit done

>>201219882
I ordered the same pack during new years day. I got my audio strap too. I called HTC support and they said that they had a limited supply of Vive's and would be sending more out this week. I got my tracking number for the main unity today.

>>201219795
Servers are shitting themselves m8, we just have to wait until kids go to bed.

>>201220051

VR makes scary games impossibly spooky for me. I fucking love Subnautica but can't even leave the shallows for too long without getting shook.

What kind of sensors are these? are they wireless?

>>201217685
its actually faster when you mash that in snap mode. Its pro mode

>>201220267
>vr in subnautica
way to spook

>>201220051
Reminds me of that time when I was driving around on my buggy in elite dangerous on some planet at night and looked right and down into this huge crater next to me, for a fraction a second I had one of those "wow I forgot this isn't real" moments, was super spoopy.

>>201220238
>>201219981
>>201220215
Yeah I contacted support and they said it will be shipping separately. Hope it ships soon because I go back to school next week and need to be there to sign for it.

>>201219667
maybe try flipping through previous threads and download the two packs seperately all over again?

im curious. go to your materials and give us a screen of how your materials are set up in the shader window

>>201220267
>i cant imagine scary games in vr. spookys mansion is too much for me even.

>>201219539
It's hit or miss. It works really well on some.

>>201220267

Even those dinky Halloween maps in VRC got me (and I was desktop only back then).

So like no pricing, no release date for Vive Pro?

>>201219795
the trick is to NEVER go to the Hub. Ever.

go to your launch options in steam and use that code thing to set your launch world to something else.

>>201220872
It says "pro" so expect a lot
I guess the HMD on its own wont be too bad as its the lighthouses cost a ton

Is there anyway to share your custom avatars with other people? Like can you send them to a friend somehow?
Can I pester people who aren't tech-impaired into setting one up for me?

>>201221258

You could theoretically send someone a zipped unity project and all the asset files it used.

What model? I might be able to help.

>>201220745
oh.

>Unity Patch 5.3.4p1
>Run the VRSDK
>Unity crashes
for fucks sake I just want to see if this model works now

>>201219026
Looks like shading to me.

>>201221258
You'll still need unity but some one could set the project up for you so all you have to do is upload. It's not too hard dude there are tutorials out there. I'm not exactly smart but I managed it

>>201221441
Try importing the textures first, I had that happen if I put it all in at the same time/model first

>>201221570
alright

>>201214215
this whole general is people asking about help with avatars for VRchat or asking where people hang out on VRchat so they can ERP
why would any sane person bother coming here

>>201221429
https://blushus.deviantart.com/art/MMD-DL-SERIES-YYB-s-Umaru-Chan-DOWNLOAD-681939449 this is the one!

>>201221570
I've been following tutorials but I end up messing up some small step every time or picking models with incomplete spines and not noticing until I get the error message at the very last steps after trying to set everything up for two hours.

>>201221441
This is a shader issue. Reimport cubed shaders and reapply them.

If you can't do I'd offer to upload the model for you.

>>201214557
I can use my kinect to be a cuter trap?!

>>201221570
so the textures seem fine, but how should I go about putting the model in? drag and drop everything?

>>201222176
There's a scene file in the project folder you just downloaded, open it. It's a string of numbers.

>>201222062
If you have an adaptor, I think. I've scoped it out - looks like Kinect 2.0 is a no-go, as the market for the adaptor is totally fucked. I can't tell with the 360 Kinect- there's lots of off-brand ones, and none of them say 'for PC' or even 'USB', but I believe that's what they're for. I also don't know if 360 Kinect is good enough anyway. Might be worth trying for £30, if I can get it for that but I'd much rather just get the 2.0 instead...

>>201221883
Got it. Any face animations you really care about?

>>201222176
Try creating a textures folder, put all the image files in there. Delete the material folder and reupload the avatar file. The materials don't get the proper texture because they were missing.

>>201222567
none! gosh that looks really great, you got it so fast too

>>201222294
>>201222569
I don't even know where to go from this point, everything is over my head, I think i'll just stick to my own model

>>201222567
If I ever see this in VR I'm going to vomit

>>201222775
gonna run up to you and ask you about taxes

Are there any worlds with mirrors that are mostly horizontal on the floor? I'm trimming some geometry that's upskirt and want to make sure it still looks fine

>>201222567
I had to slice off my models eye because it was attached to the head and make a new one and I still don't got shit working. Props to you

>tfw no slime girl mmd model anywhere

>>201222769
post your model

>>201222769
If you want I can upload it for you, that'd mean you sent me your VRchat.net login credentials to my E-Mail Nyanpi@lolisquad.eu.

I thought just providing a project folder would be easier for people since they'd only have to open the scenefile, pic related. And everything including dynamic bones and descriptor, and rigging and visemes would already be set up. I'll just do unitypackages from now on, maybe I was simply wrong. Big Sorry!

>>201222769
It's simple

1. Delete the material folder and fbx
2. Create a new folder and put all the image files from the zip in there.
3. Put the fbx back in

Whenever you drag the fbx in with missing textures, the materials get screwed up because they were trying to load something that doesn't exist.

will it be possible to buy the vive pro without the headphone shit? I just want the resolution and the forward cameras

Anyone else have the SDK thing for VRchat crash Unity?

How is the FOV on the Vive and Oculus in practice? I have a GearVR but its incredibly distracting how small the FOV is because it feels like Im looking through binoculars

>>201223247
Pretty big, you can look up the exact angles if you want.

>>201223061
its the same model, I am just having a hard time since I dont know shit about unity

>>201223089
I was going to edit colors, I'll figure something out but thanks anon.

>>201223142
And that pink color is what happens when the material is missing its texture

>>201222456
I'll give it a go with the 360 but it seems like the software is behind a paywall now.

>>201215413
Where are you at

>>201221441
I mean select at least one of those materials and show us the options window that pops up.

also, try doing

>>201221570
importing and applying the textures first. I assume you have tried that? when you have models set to flat toon shading it can produce some funky results before you apply the textures.

Rift 2 when?

I'm really getting sick of the asset bundle upload error whenever I'm trying to upload/update something.

>>201223142
well, its there but her skin is like gone

>>201223686
They're going to have to follow up on the vive pro's announcement soon to stay relevant. They will probably try to stay cheaper somehow, but have a competitive resolution.

>>201223806
you can thank the normie invasion and the population of the game literally doubling over the weekend.
vrchat is over.

>>201223831
change the shader on the skin material.

>>201223838
That'd be interesting because then they might have a version with a higher resolution than the base Vive at the same price.

is this the new second life?

>>201223831
Shader issues or missing texture, check out if you set the skin material accidentaly to transparent.

>>201219026
Post model without texture, likely shading.

>>201223831
That's normal, you need to lower the alpha cutoff i think its called

>>201223838
I thought they were retreating to mobile VR because PCVR is too difficult for them?

dammit where did my irises go? I know it's in there

>>201223806
Not only that but when you do get it uploaded, there's a high chance the upload image will be fucked up.

>>201224176
I really doubt that, they're branching out because there's a market in mobile too.

>>201224043
it was transparent, now the little arm band is white
if i change to cube shader it does this
I think i should download the dynamic bones and shader separately or some shit
I got the package from a friend

>>201224335
Oh anon! You wouldn't believe how sad it makes me to see you struggle. If you change your mind and want assistance you can always rely on my offer to upload it for you. I hope you can solve your problem.

>>201224335
Absolutely a missing texture if it's magenta.

>>201223831
check what material corresponds to that part of the body, select it, and set the rendering mode to "opaque"

if you're not sure which is which, just select all the material spheres with ctrl, (make sure not to highlight the texture files) and make them all opaque

>rocknroll is actually the middle finger

>>201224335
do you keep the texture files and materials in separate folders? personally I keep them in the same one. its easier to line them up, because the material spheres usually share the name of the texture file that corresponds to it. making it a simple matter of selecting the material, and then dragging the texture file into the albedo box.

>>201224335
Skin is missing its texture still.

>>201224476
its okay, things like this are expect right?

>>201224478
yeah, its fine if I don't use cube shader though; think it has something to do with the little error at the bottom

>can't see worlds, my avatars or friends
>sometimes get sent to error world
>sometimes can't even log in
This fucking dumbass influx of people is ruining everything, I just wanted to idle

>>201224993
in that case it might definitely be a bug in the shader.

just download it seperately. shouldnt be that hard

>>201217910
You realize VRChat existed before the steam release right

>>201225047
I don't think it's fair to blame the people. Blame VRChat for having a potato for a server. How can it seriously struggle with 12k people?

>>201224558
>Peace sign is OK sign
I need more emotes. Would be nice to bind left and right hands separately and have just the trigger actually assigned to something,
fuck

>>201225141
alright
someone said there was the separate links a thread back or so?

>>201225047
don't blame everyone else for vrchat not having something as basic as a fucking startup menu where you can change settings and spawn location before entering game. it's 2018 not 1979

>>201225185
The player base has gone from like a few hundred onlijne to almost 15000 in a couple months, I don't think anyone expected this

>>201225282
probably more than a thread by now. not too hard though, just go through the previous threads and ctrl+f "Cubed" and "dynamic" and eventually you should get some links going

>>201225185
>>201225290
I'll blame the streamers for making casing the already fragile servers to explode as well as VRChat for having shitty fragile servers.
It's not even like the huge influx of players are quality either, they're just fucking memers.

>tfw just got my leg trackers
This is really fucking great but god damn i miss those thumbsticks.

>>201221526

That pic was in blender. How do you fix the shading in blender?


>>201224081
Do you mean this, right before you click shadeless? Or do you mean in Unity without textures?

>>201225357
im not sure how, this kind of thing has appealed to people since the 90's. Worlds.com and second life had tons of users. VR chatrooms will ALWAYS draw people in, ESPECIALLY with how relatively open it is about allowing custom content.

>>201225472
not everyone got here from memes on stream.

might as well blame 4chan too, since /v/ spammed the ugandan knuckles meme threads for a while, and I'm pretty sure I saw VRchat advertised on the steam front page at some point too.

>>201222737
Gonna test it myself and if everything works I'll upload a package

>>201215413
>>201223558
>tfw can't find a model for either to customize and texture up better for VRChat's lighting engine

>>201223558
Restarting my internet, then.. I honestly dont know which room to go to

I keep getting disconnected from rooms every 15-20 minutes or so, its really annoying. I think my internet is dying.

>>201225753
is this english?

>>201225589
Yeah but vrchat has been out for a couple years now or more, it use to struggle to even get 30+ people for events for the longest time, it definitely came out of nowhere as a viral meme basically

>>201225817
No it's autistic

ive got a question. ive seen several models that do that freaky mona lisa thing where the eyes are always looking at you no matter what angle you look at the character from. it's not eye tracking, it's like some kind of optical illusion

how does that work?

>>201225719
>might as well blame 4chan too
Already have. It's fucking stupid how shit the community got, but it's to be expected in popular works. I just at least want to log into the game, but I can't even do that.

>>201225728
This is so nice of you, thanks a bunch!

please tell me its the servers fault and i didnt fuck up something

>>201225851
probably a perfect storm of elements. And a good serving of word of mouth. (that includes the likes of streamers, reddit, and 4chan) the Demons Souls effect. where what started as a small niche action rpg became a popular cult hit that spawned an entire franchise and an entire genre, through word of mouth alone

Someone should make a vr general world where we can all hang

>>201226051
Servers are chunked out right now.

>>201225589
People were crying about the absurd prices of VR, so VRChat was really low population for years. Once the big names started streaming it, more people found out about it and also found out that you didn't need VR to play it.
The VR price drops also helped, so it was just an unexpected fate. If it was gonna happen in the future, no one expected it to happen this quickly.

>>201225432
Okay I got the things and it looks like its working? except for the armband which should be skin color

>>201225795
The Gap~

>>201226294

>>201225889

Eye tracking

>>201226207
I find it hard to actually find people who have vr, it's literally become pc chat now, it's still the original couple hundred people with vr online but also the extra 10000 without it that want to join the youtubers

>>201226051
I cant even get unity to run the SDK

>>201226256
ahh forgot the pic of the error

>>201226341
This. I don't mind normal desktop users that don't pick Knuckles and go around screaming, but I just want to play charades with a silent anime girl. I can't do that with a desktopper

>>201226046

Servers are fucked right now, I can't even upload my own old avatars, but keep lurking in the generals and I'll get it uploaded and tested as soon as I can.

>>201225851

I thought it came out in the first quarter of 2017

>>201226650
Nah, it's been out since the DK1 days.

>>201226341

>it's still the original couple hundred people with vr online

Most of those with VR in this thread only bought the equipment in the last month.

>>201226551
>Umaru
Time to start up a soundboard for maximum annoyance

>>201226676
Uh oh

>>201226650
VRChat has existed for quite some time before that. The steam release was recent.

>>201226551
DONT FUCKING DO IT

>>201226341
>>201226541

Even if the ratio stays 100:1 desktop:VR it's a huge net gain for the VR community. People actively interacting with VR users in the same "game" where the benefits of VR are so obvious is the best marketing you could ask for. Hell it's probably even better than a VR demo station for selling units.

>vr servers are fucked to the point where it isn't worth logging in
>suddenly find myself with a fucking minute to breathe

Jesus fuck I haven't been this sucked into a game since Vanilla WoW back in my college days. I feel real bad for people going into a college semester with this thing begging for their every free second, makes it real tempting to skip classes.

i like that guy with the cool chara avatar

>>201226793
Yeah, I feel that it's better for VR in the long run. It just kinda gets lonely being 1 or 2 VR users in a world at times

>>201227000
?

heheheheh

this reminds me of a puzzle

>>201227086
Get a gpu pleb

why did normies have to ruin the "do you know da wey" meme

>>201226551
I'll keep an eye out!

>>201226957

Fucking christ, yeah. I'm so happy I'm already graduated. For past month every second of my free time has been spent playing VRchat or working on avatars/worlds. The friends I've made and the adventures I've had have been unlike any game I've ever played in my life.

>>201227132
It's probably a laptop

>>201227147
kill yourself

>>201226329
There's only one up, I'm going in there now.

>>201227086

>>201226063

It started when I asked if someone would buy me a Vive on /v/ if I would be their VR gf in VRChat the week before Christmas. Then me and others kept spamming threads on /v/ about it. Then Reddit found it and then streamers. The anime waifus drew in a lot from 4chan, then the knuckles meme drew in more and also Reddit. This was all going on during Christmas break so lots of high schoolers and college students had a vacation.

>>201227086
If you run it at desktop mode - low then it'll real okayish in most rooms but actual VR is out of the question.

>>201227147
Normies gave birth to the meme, normies will kill the meme

How do people manage to make all those precise hand movements? I thought the controllers only had buttons on them.

>>201227147
Because they ran it into the fucking ground. It made me laugh the first time I saw the video. Having the 5000th Knuckles avatar desktopper run up to me kinda reinforces the fact that it was always shit

>>201227086
lost (idk why tho)

>>201227454
The controllers have hand tracking. Otherwise what would be the point?

>>201227454
Different combinations of buttons create different hand gestures.

>>201227180
The dicks I've sucked too. Feels good man.

>>201227510

>>201227730

Holy shit Superhot.
What a rush.

>HMD only sales of Vive Pro will start 1st quarter
Kek, so if you are a vrlet and want to get in, you will have to buy base stations, controllers and all other overpriced shit separately.

>>201228109
Been playing Thumper here, and boy am I glad I saved buying it until I got a VR set after some word of mouth about it quite awhile ago.

>>201228109
works on my machine :^)

>>201226294

I..I assume that was you, right? cat?
sorry, i dont really know what to do in social situations, im too shy for that shit

>>201228194
That's only for existing vive customers, so if you want a new headset buy already have controllers and base stations it's fine, then I think 3rd quarter they are selling the whole set

>>201228109

>>201228352
>That's only for existing vive customers
No, it's not.

>>201228214
yes thumper is better in VR. Good choice. The fov rescaling (tracks become physically longer), depth, and framerate really helps know what the fuck is going on in corners as they come. I cannot be consistent with perfect turns without VR.

>>201226524
anyone?

>>201228229
What world are you guys in?

>>201228194
I just hope Oculus has their own optional wireless kit cooking that isn't making its userbase buy whatever the Santa Cruz ends up being.

Fucking mad that they're thinking of changing up the Oculus Touch design to incorporate touchpad instead of analog stick.

>>201228589
Only thing I wish Thumper had was sense of depth for stuff in the background. The screen's own resolution is either too low for it, or the fresnel lens Rift uses doesn't help perceive depth after a certain distance.

>>201228178
It makes me feel so fucking clinical, like I'm the coolest dude alive.
I am frustrated with my inability to throw anything accurately, is there a trick to it?

>>201228719
dont be a third wheel anon let them erp in private

>>201228627

Did you try setting the texture of the arm band to opaque? You can also change the color of the texture there I think.

There's almost 2000 people at the hub. No wonder the servers are shitting themselves so hard tonight.

>>201228993
Just use a url link to another world to start the game up with. Then bug the devs to lock out desktop users until this shit gets fixed.

>>201228892
No, just throw and hope

>>201228178
I wanted to grab it during the sales, but there's been so many complaints on its Steam forums to deter me enough to not risk it yet.

Seems like it was a gamble if it wasn't going to have issues with height placement and starting position based on whether you have a Vive or Rift.

Ugandan Knuckles is racist now according to SJWs

>>201227698
Oculus Touch for sure.
You can basically track all your fingers "individually" aside from the ring and pinky

>that cory in the house

>>201229314
I saw Restera bitching about that the other day.
What isn't racist to them?

>>201228750
eh? You found the little beetle does not get enough draw depth?

For 2d, Its the tight tunnels zones that kills me, especially if there is blast effect smudging fucking red everywhere and on the turn pads. In vr, the turns when they matter for reaction have enough depth and a way to still ID depth in the blur-fuckoh-vision. Those multitrack zones with mines are so much more readable in VR, it becomes no more guess work and just reading position.

>>201229415
Their self-entitled egos I guess

where can i get a kyoko toshino mmd

>>201228979
every texture is set to that

>>201229435
I can see depth perfectly fine for close-up stuff, but I'm talking shit like the inverted pyramid or the boss face which just looks like a flat image off in the distance.

For me my weakness in sight reading is back-to-back walls while flying since my beetle tends to block my forward viewsight when it's up.

On a side note, would anyone be able to tell what is the issue going on here >>201227128 ? I launched in no-VR mode, and it's not going to a standard hands-by-side pose. I should add IK handles, but I don't imagine that would fix the arms and the feet being in the ground.

Why do a lot of MMD models have pink/missing textures when you open them with blender?

>>201231836
because of sphere textures, which are a bizarre format I'm pretty sure only MMD uses.

>poke steady losing viewers

>>201232140
Everyone is watching drek and his new VR arms

>tfw all of your social time is spent in vrchat with strangers lately

>>201229740
Break the model apart by materials, from there select materials and go into wire frame, any random shit you see, you can use the B key to use a select area option. You can then delete those.

Star there, You can move objects around to other layers with the M key if you want. It's easier to work with. Also, just flat out delete shit you don't need and look for pieces that are way over exagerated.

>>201233719
I was tempted when it was on sale on Oculus, but then my brain kicked in and said that'd be a terrible idea if I switch to a non-Rift headset in the future, and I'd be boned into having to use hacky work-arouns to play Rift-store games on non-Rift sets.

What did I do wrong now

>>201233896
God damn I don't want to sound like an Oculus shill but that's kind of a false sense of security that you have. The thing is, developers do not support every headset on Steam. There are some developers that may block Rift support, like Google once did with Google Earth VR, and LA Noir for example. Some developers like the Sairento guy even refuse to put the Oculus SDK build of their game onto Steam, even though they have it. Just because a developer uses OpenVR doesn't mean it will automatically support all headsets without workarounds. Case in point, a lot of existing games just don't work well without tweaks of some form on the Windows MR headsets.

In addition, OpenXR is coming which Oculus will support, so the only future-proofing advantage to purchasing on Steam is that the developer simply has the option to publish an application that is built with a non-Oculus SDK. Just because they can publish it however, again, doesn't mean they will.

Also many developers will not update their old apps to new versions of SDKs or to new SDKs once newer headsets come out. In other words, no matter which store you purchase on, you will likely have to do game specific tweaking to get your new headset to work well for those old applications.

>>201234584

>>201236283
I hope they're for AR, it would be great to have both platforms within the same headset. Though, most likely they won't be used much, I can't see much content being made for AR in the year after the release of Vive Pro, maybe by the time Vive 2 comes out there will be enough stuff to make good use of the AR cameras.

After spending some time with some anon's last week watching Madoka I'd love to see regular /vrg/ hangouts be a thing. We could all watch new shows together among other things.

So I nearly got the stupid eyes fixed. The right one was part of the head while the left wasnt so I had to cut it out and mirror-ed the left one. Now both eyes are the same object or something? Anyway to seperate the original and the mirror into seperate entities?

Try pressing "P" in Edit Mode, then select by loose parts. Make a backup before you try, just in case CTRL+Z doesn't work for whatever reason.

Found it in the archives, thanks. Going to give her some proper texturing so she's not so flat looking like the ones I see from the world pedestals with the basic anime lighting.

>>201236693
I'm genuinely curious as to what we're talking about scale wise here.

What's the best tutorial to learn how to work blender beyond using cats tool to do everything? Tupper has never really covered the in and outs of it.

>>201238409
alright! keep us updated, im interested in working with better models.

>>201238592
Blender has a shitload of features, it's faster to just go search tutorials for what you want to make with it.

>>201232915

>>201236693
Reminder VRpill will have to approve of the map to make it public. He will see every detail as you do the level design.

Right i not i bet Pill regrets approving a bunch of levels.

Were people complaining the world map with nachi was removed? Of perhaps that is from the server meltdown from yesterday.

>>201232915
This seems more like a thing for production purposes in Japan where you'd want full finger tracking. Eg. VR kit + gloves, have a weather forecaster as whatever the current trending anime girl is there.

For long use, your hands will get sweaty as fuck in them,

>>201238797
I know the Vive works with SteamVR but how does that go together with the Vive controllers? you can't use both, it wouldn't even make sense otherwise, I know you can use them as tracking sensors strapping on the back of the gloves but, I wonder how do you walk around in games when you use gloves and not controllers?

are the custom animation overrides only for vr hand gestures, or can you map them to the clickable emotes?

>>201238810
I see all kinds of shit be approved. Unless the world has nudity or breaks the game, it's pretty much an automatic approval.

>>201238810
Would it not be possible to have anon's join a private world or do you have to be invited?

>>201238975
It's more the hassle of having to revisit it every time since there's still no way of linking public world pedestals to your account.

>>201238634
I might say fuck it to retexturing the hair though. The stray polygons sticking out for the loose hair thing would be a bitch to UV map to look consistent with the main bulk of the hair.

>>201239082
Both

>>201239082
The 2 frame trick only works with gestures. Emotes can't be an infinite thing like drawing a weapon and having it stay drawn.

yes. Gaps will in appear in the deforms otherwise. Cats is not a do all tool. Merge those doubles manually.

I'm dealing with discovering cats wiped out auxilary boob weights as another vertex group for a bikini top right now because lol it didnt know a extra bone on the tit bone was NOT zero weight. fml.

>>201239156
>>201239179
shieeet i should get on that
can someone point me to where some dance emotes are?
or is it all at mixamo?

Got a VR headset a few days ago and managed to import some models as avatars into VRChat despite thinking I'd be too dumb for it.

I keep getting a fucking red transparent man whenever they are using cubeds unity shaders though. Anyone know why?

>>201239185
ive done it without seperating materials, but i dont see why you couldnt either way.
save a pre-decimated file and try it out.

>1100€
It isn't even "only" 1100€, that is only for one glove. If you want both that's 2000€.
Plus it says you have to get a pro or premium license to order, so we are at a minimum price of 5300€
Plus its probably not even supported in 99% of all apps so you will never be able to actually use the haptic feedback, probably only finger tracking if you are lucky.

>>201239693

How do we get VRChat devs to make the game multithreaded?

If most of the CPU load is kinematics for 20 characters that can't physically interact, then why can't each thread work on 10? That sounds extremely parallelizable.

>>201239693
>dat ass though
I agree anon, it looks pretty unoptimized

>>201239389
>The /v/ mansion is going to be a real place soon

>>201239797
Why not record in VR?

>>201239949
i dont have vr yet mah dude

>>201239808
Unity scripts (aka, shit like jiggle bones that people abuse) are all handled on one core. Limitation of the engine last I checked, unsure if a dev can parallelize it without digging into the engine itself.

>>201239876

We don't want your kind here any way.

>>201238797
Oh fug I must be blind, I didn't notice that pic was from the site. I checked the store and looks like they sell each hand's glove separately, technically it could be used with a controller I guess, for movement and stuff. The old generation costs like 250 euros, maybe by autumn it will become affordable with VR getting mainstream.

>>201239389
Are you going to post progress and get ideas here? I'm sure many anon's would love to help just someone needs to take charge of putting it all together.

Is there the equivalent of a github for 3d models?

>>201239779
Yeah I saw that, though there's an older version that's much cheaper.

>>201240079
It still has the problem of needing VR games to support it on a per-game basis.

VR is diving too quickly into WiiU's problem of having too many kinds of controllers to support, so everyone only does the bare minimum (what each device comes with) instead.

I doubt Vive/Rift's pucks will pick up in popularity much either.

>>201239693
Ass?

Has anyone found any good NGE models?

my character model keeps reverting back to the robot on my client but my friends say im still a loli
what the heck

>>201240059
Are you telling me dynamic bone faggots would prevent ALL of kinematics from being multithreaded

They're like 5% of the population

>>201240196

Definitely yes to both. I'm still relatively inexperienced and started this project to learn both Unity and Blender better.

If there is such a service, I don't know what it is.

>>201240251
I have that model too. Love it when the perky tits jiggle

>>201240234
SteamVR working as framework between controllers and games could help getting support extended to most recent VR games maybe, I don't know how VRChat's gripping gestures work, but if it can read input from the Oculus controller with finger sensors, I bet something can be done for glove controller like those too.

>>201240390
The quality of his models and textures are just fucking great. Tits too.

>>201238290
sadly that didnt do anything. not sure what to do cause at this point if i try to fix model or join meshes, the eye just disappears

Is there a way to make a world/room and pick the map? I really like some of the avatars on Rakqoi's Avatar Islands but that world has disappeared from the list.

>>201239808

>>201216594
I'm thinking $600 headset only, $900 for the whole set. I will be very surprised if the HMD-only deal is worthwhile at all versus selling your old package altogether and buying the new one.

>>201240526
It still requires the developer to assign the controllers. There's no universal input system with SteamVR that every device abides by automatically.

>>201240314
I guess for now it'd be cool if you could upload stuff to one of the pomf clones.
For open sourcing the 3d model grabcad would work great, but this would just be the 3d model. Maybe then a github or something for sharing the scripts or what not but I'll see what else I can come up with. It seems odd that there doesn't seem to be a lot out there for collaborating on creative projects.

>>201239693

Kek there’s no way that shit is under 20k. The ass looks too supple. I uploaded an avatar that was 50k and the skin looked that good in game, compared to the 19k I had of the same avatar that looked like crap in game.

should the cats fix model in blender remove the textures? how do i put them back on now that the mesh is all one thing?

>>201240843

I don't even know if they work, they got the old version for 250 each though.
I'll let you know later if the devs give any answer, cus I'm eating breakfast now.

I had so many cool experiences after the servers finally worked. Saw this violin girl. Then I danced with three rainbow copies of my avatar, which was pretty crazy. I took a print screen, but lost the picture.

Does anyone know a good way to take VR screenshots on the oculous? Having to jump out and print screen is tough.

>>201241842
What gloves?

>>201242204
I've been able to do it by pressing left menu + left bumper

>>201242204
SteamVR is select+left-trigger. Otherwise do high bitrate shadowplay capture on the game window if you're on nVidia.

How do you decimate it without fucking up the glasses? As soon as I separate by materials the glasses get broken textures in the corners that I can't get rid of.

You should make a black habbo afro man, then we can raid again

>>201242369

>>201242652
separate the glasses into another object. You do not need to follow cats material split up. You will join them later manually.

>>201242819
it's actually just a tiny reimu that doesn't load in properly for whatever fucking reason

>>201242928
Yeah it's been happening to a few avatars lately. When you switch it switches the model but not the rig/animations. It's a glitch that seems to eventually go away when the corrupted avatar actually loads correctly.

So I came across this when i started working on animations. What's causing this? And how do i fix it.

>>201242893
If you practice well, yeah kind of. If you practice bad habits, you will get bad habits. So no.

Would you pay $100 for an objectively long and good VR game? Would you pay $200?

I'm talking about the kind of game that you invest thousands of hours into.

Finally got this handsome fella working. All the
hours spent were definitely worth it and I've been having a blast with him.

>>201243201

Sorry Anon. Is there a good primer on general Blender usage somewhere because as soon as I leave the Tupper tutorial workflow I'm lost in the woods.

>>201243107
I need that Chen model bad. Is there a place with a pedestal?

Has anyone gotten this to work yet? I've made 5 avatars all with working jaw bones, but the lip sync never works in-game. I'm guessing it's just fucking broken.

>>201243508
I will unironically buy Skyrim again if the VR port is good, but if it's anything like Fallout 4 VR it's probably a lost cause.

>>201243548
Tupper misses a lot of shit. You going to be responsible and learn blender. There is a reason every single question you can think of asking google has a stack exchange 1st result.

when I put the model I downloaded into blender the mouth seems to be invisible, but in the authors picture the mouth is visible. Am I doing something wrong? the file is /150858 on bowlrowl

>>201243693
if you decimate the face the keys will be gone

>>201243114
Skeleton Weighting. It's what determines what parts of a model stay in place or turn with the bones, and by how much. Open Blender, find out how to even operate the weighting scheme to the most base degree, and then paint the odd few polys on the hand the same color as the rest of it.

>>201243762
switch to wireframe, from the button next to object mode, it will show you the polygonal structure and you can see what's going on there.

>>201243564
The Knuko Chen model is everywhere because it's under 20k without decimating. I think the first place to put it up was Trap-chan's avatar world.

The Kome-ken Chen I imported myself because I wanted to be a special snowflake,

Does anyone know why some model's faces textures get fucked when you create an atlas for it?

>>201243762
its so trivial in blender to check for yourself instead of asking us.

Ok guys. porter helpers. its time to stop with basic Blender questions on a VR thread.

>>201243896
cats version of atlas is fucked. more so if you did something that created ngon faces. Transforming them into poly never fixed it for me that way.

You'll have to use the better way from Tupper's guide. Know that this will make you a better modeller.

So just leave it then? thanks for the help btw

hmmmmmm thinking

>>201244575
Both?

UGH this is so frustrating. I have the textures all figured out- all the polygons figured out- but as soon as I put it in Mixamo to get the rig it removes the textures and putting it through blender cat fixes only 'fixes' the bones but when THAT goes into unity and I try to upload it, there are missing bones along with the blank texture.

My model turns weird colors in certain lights, how do i disable this?

>>201244539
real books would eat your soul. Know these concepts and keywords for modelling:

>mesh, bones, vertex groups, shape keys, UV, materials.


As you are decimating you'll focus more on modifying what you got and using commands that remove them, instead of creating them, which requires more skills to overload you.

>>201244712
>>201244575
That's some good texture/color

>>201244687
Try and see how it looks in unity later, if it looks odd then I guess something was wrong with it.
My avatar was also like that, since the skin color was not much darker than the rest of the face but it looks fine ingame.

>>201244875
alright, thank you

>>201243883
Thanks, found the MMD model to do up myself for practice and for adding some pomf to her hat with each step via dynamic bones

>>201245039
Alright so for example in the Void Club the blue lights turn me a weird tan color but i look fine under normal conditions.

How good is the signal of wireless Vive sensors if I'm 6 meters away from the pc and there's a 10cm wall in between?

>custom world won't load

RRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>201245160
It won't be good at all. These devices rely on infrared. Even your own body can interfere with the signal.

So is VRChat all y'all talk about, or do you play other games? I just got my Ebay vive in a couple days ago, and am looking for some more full experiences. I already read the pastebin obviously, but wanted to ask some live people before I drop money on anything. I already got h3vr, and if anybody has any suggestions for, let's say >10hr games, I'd love to hear 'em.

>>201245841
get Subnautica if you haven't played it, it's way better in VR

>>201245841
>if anybody has any suggestions for, let's say >10hr games
This is pretty rare for anything that's VR-exclusive. I could probably count Dirt Rally or Euro Truck Sim 2 as lengthy VR experiences, but I'm not a fan of cockpit games in a VR setting with the current headset resolutions.

>need Neck bone to export to VR chat
>need Head bone for the rig to be considered humanoid
>model has no neck
Well fuck.

>>201241246
The Gene model can be under 20k easily, but usually at the cost of the hands or skirt. Check her hands in that picture. See how fucked the fingers are?
The model starts out around 27k. It just takes some smart decimation to retain quality and hit sub 20.

>>201246078
Make head the neck bone, and add a dummy head bone.

>>201245471
Oh phew I just had to remove the rigidbodies on my mesh colliders. Not sure why I thought those were requried.

But now my character can't jump, fuck

>>201246078
You can just add bones that aren't actually attached to your mesh.

>>201246110
Any reason why people just don't merge tris instead of decimating? Redoing the UV Map would be a non-issue, but I'm unsure how much it'd fuck with existing bone weights.

Only shit part is not being able to speak since I play so late at night I dont want to wake everyone up. Wish I had a bigger play space too. Pretty much have the bare minimum. Only played the tech demo shit, robo recall and VRChat and theres so much more to check out.

Figure they'll eventually enhance the VRC SDK so you can test out the avatar itself within the Unity editor, vs. trial-and-erroring it with uploads?

Been playing Gal Gun. Girls are super cute but I'm mad it can't go more lewd. I couldn't find any mods. Are there any?

>>201247389
Oh god I have no clue. It's properly parented in blender?

Also not sure why it's showing those _end bones, mine did that a while ago and then it went away

>>201247436
That would reduce their server load a lot.
While they're at it they could up the tri limit to 35k and implement a cap on materials and dynamic bones. Really though it seems like they're swamped just scaling up and moderating the community.

>>201244875
So it shows in unity but when I apply outline mode it hides it and colors the area. I guess they used some sorta alpha mesh over the mouth? Is there any way to outline everything but that area?

>usual knuckles invasion comes to the camp
>see one that's an SCV from Starcraft with a knuckles driving it
>it builds a knuckles bunker
>my fucking face when

>>201247631
Cap dynamic bones to 4, materials to 3. Don't need people with super flowy skirts and other frilly shit in an environment meant to run on VR devices.

Don't really need more than 3 materials unless you're trying to PBR shit, which you aren't for VRC.

>>201247839
If nothing else, they are creative little fuckers.

>>201248171
it'd be amazing if they had an automated tool that performed all of the animation overrides and walked around a little, to test rendering performance for every possible animation on your character

kind of a pipe dream though

>>201249219
I uploaded it to the livery in Forza Horizon 3 so anyone can use it. Just search for Knuckles. The car is the BMW Isetta 300 Export

so I added some new bones to my model elsewhere. before I do anything, this part right here works just fine when I move it around. But when I select the armature and mesh and hit "with added weights" to attatch the new bones to the mesh, suddenly this one section fucks up and no longer follows the rest of the arm.

Am I doing something wrong here? why is it doing this? this is nowhere near where I added the bones.

How many of you edited the SDK to bypass the 20k limit?

>>201215283
whoa wait, how would i set this up for vrchat

>>201215075
It's all IRs no? Kinect floods your room with IR dots, so that'd mess with Vive's own tracking since its headset is plastered with IR sensors all around it.

>>201250928

>>201250928
I'm just glad there's finally going to be a push for wireless functionality, and it's compatible with existing Vive. Whether the compromises suck (battery life? supports native rez? latency hiccups?) will have to be seen.

What sucks is that the Knuckles are still quite a ways out. They need to replace the Vive Wands already, Oculus Touch puts them to shame.

UV mapping Q.

The kind of maps I'm used to see were of older-generation games, where they'd have a single texture atlas per character, and EVERY SINGLE PIXEL was put to use, with all the parts of the mesh neatly arranged into a series of squares/rectangles.

Is this something to strive for in today's workflow, or if it better to let the mesh lay itself out in a more natural manner and then scale parts out to the needs of the texture detail?

>now in VR
no don't do this
This would be even worse than actual VR horror games.

Just get a fucking rift. The systems are damn near identical. You're not autistic enough to notice the differences. You think you are but you aren't. Use the rest of the cash for PC upgrades if you need it, games, whatever.

I couldnt help myself, sorry anon

For vrchat, how good of a chance would I get banned if I made an avatar with scripts attached to it?

That depends on two things; A, the resolution of the texture, and B; the intended end-result resolution of the texture on the model compared to other things.
For example, here's a retexture of mid-tier mage robes from Skyrim. Note how much of it is empty space. This is because, if you were to use all of it, you'd put a LOT of texture on not a lot of model, which compared to things such as prop objects which are simple models which don't need high resolution textures, would appear way too detailed in comparison, or make the prop look especially bad. Also consider that you can use the same texture for multiple objects, with different objects having their UVs unwrapped differently to use those textures; for example, perhaps much of the empty space here isn't there because more detail is unnecessary, that this model is an expansion upon another model, and that these textures are additional assets to improve upon the lower-tier set of robes.

Given that VR chat has no real art-style, the only consistency you need is within your own model. Don't make some things too much higher detail than others to the point where that one part of it makes the rest of it look bad.

wew lad, I have some work cut out for me.

Must be a bitch as a game artist to get a consistent resolution look across assets. Granted I presume they all work at much higher resolutions to start so it's not too much time loss to shrink them down after the fact.

I mean I guess.
I need you to think about this though anon. Vrchat is likely to be the only game, or at least one of very, very few games that will use that in any way. Maybe there will be some beautiful and perfect porn game down the line, but doubtful. Thing about how much money you're spending on this small aspect of this one game. Then think about the fact that those very same accessories may come out for Oculus at some point.
Not even shilling Oculus, Vive is a perfectly fine headset. I just think the price difference is retarded.

>red hologram shit
Can you please fix your fucking servers fuck

How its SUPPOSED TO LOOK.
Anyone know how to fix this shit without completely janking up the textures? Been working on this a while now, and I'm trying to learn this shit so I can get a gallery of horror avatars out in VRchat.
