PCSS (NGSS) Needing help setting things up!

theyadoreyuki

@Finn I have both PCSS (NGSS) and I saved someone's settings for the Manuka model that I am currently working on and I copied everything but nothing change for my avatar, everything looks the same. There's no shading or shadows, it looks exactly the same and that's what I am currently stuck on.

Currently struggling with this Shader as well, does anyone have any helpful info on it? Wanted to start using this on my models but the information is super limited and I'd like to have this work^

Inside unity I see the changes, inside vrchat I dont, I am using the poiyomi version, nothing in the gesture manager or inside vrchat radial menu changes anything to my avatar. I like the shading but no clue how to get it to work

maybe this will help for most of you Poiyomi users like me.
But PCSS is kind of broken for Poi and with the language barrier of the creator and popularity of liltoon, I haven't seen a fix yet. You don't even have a context menu (right click) so solo convert poi materials like you do with liltoon.

Anyway, here is a possible fix that I used for myself. This works with unity 2019 and maybe a not too recent version of PCSS. I'll copy and paste from my post from other forums

Ok, small update for those of you who are using Poiyomi for this (like me). The version of PCSS here is either dated or there is a newer version we dont have yet. Due to that, the NGSS option will not work and you get the error above.

The issue is, poiyomi no longer is located in the "assets" folder and is now located in the "packages" folder. Also, some sub folders have been rename.

To fix it, open the "PCSS4VRC_poi.cs" file in Microsoft Visual Basic or Notepad++
Go to line 421 and change the path (copy and paste this whole line) **(line number may change in future updates)

string Path = @"Packages/com.poiyomi.toon/_PoiyomiShaders/Scripts/ThryEditor/Editor/ShaderOptimizer.cs";

Save the file and run it again. Should work now.

@dragonash2023 hi !
also another problem that can be fixed via the .cs file
if you have an error related to Thry saying not good version
go in the same file
line 82 : if (Thry.Config.Singleton.verion != "2.43.3")
change the number by the version you have on the error
reload, and everything should work

Bumping because I also want to know how to work it.

If anyone is still having an issue with it showing in unity but not ingame, make sure to delete the poiyomi folder, import the newest version, and just to be safe, import pcss after
