how do i rip a world?
-
I have a method to do so but no longer works due to vrchat encrypting the downloaded files when you show/load avatars and worlds. We'll need to wait until a new way is found.
Here was my orignal method:
-
download assetripper from github.
-
locate your downloaded asset (C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\VRChat\Cache-WindowsPlayer)
-
locate the world folder (best to erase all download worlds from vrchat and redownload the world itself, so it can appear as the latest folder in the directory.)
-
once you found the folder that contains the world (should be around the same file size when you downloaded it. Remember it's file size.) copy the file named _data, and place it somewhere else.
-
Rename the _data file by adding .vrca or .vrcm at the end to allow assetripper to recognize it as a unity asset file.
-
Launch AssetRipper and click File and click settings since you may want to export your assets into something else rather what assetripper has set by default.
-
in assetripper click: File -> Open File -> (find your .vrca or .vrcm) -> Show Loaded Files (to check if everything is there) -> Export -> Export All Files -> Select Folder -> (choose one or both blue button to export it as a unity project or just the primary content.)
-
Your unity project is ready.
The reason it no longer works is because vrchat encrypts these _data files now, making our exports from assetripper useless, I tried multiple times and only it giving me json files only.

thats confusing

Hi, has a new method been found to bypass encryption ?

Bump if anyone has found a solution to this.

Model ripping itself is straightforward, but the biggest hassle is handling the materials afterward. After every rip, most materials turn white in Unity, while only a few accessories retain their original colors. Iām looking for help with this issue.
Additionally, when I upload my world to VRChat, the avatar flies out of bounds immediately upon entering the room. -

My main issue has been exporting the models out of Unity
It ends up having a bunch of chaotic duplicates at wild scales surrounding the main scene
