I have tried both the latest version of Asset Ripper and SARs, I have hasked repeatedly in SARs ARC for assistance on why I am getting so many errors and get no response despite donating to use the program, I understand that it's not Ideal to ask people to rip and get the unlocked .vrca files for you but I'm really at a loss here and don't know what else to do, if I had the money right now I would get a client so I could do it easier.
If anyone could assist, I would be greatly appreciative, thank you in advance!

@SynthDog check the ripping guide in my bio, there is free options for ripping

[Literal]

@SynthDog Did you get a Decrypted version of these models yet? AssetRipper an Sars dont work with the original cache grabbing method anymore

[Literal]

@agent287 Please update your ripping guide! it doesnt help anyone with actually getting the VRCA to rip! you are basically pointing them to buying a client or finding a server with VRCA Dumps! When instead you can just point them to trusted clients or servers! Speaking of VRCA dumps i have a server that just went public where im dropping VRCA's almost everyday

[agent287]

@Literal ummmm, no? vrcdatapacks is not vrca dumps you can actively rip with their bot for free.

[Literal]

@agent287 Cool?

[agent287]

@Literal why are you saying im only pointing people towards clients and vrca dumps? vrcdatapacks is one of the resources i provided and is highly trusted, i dont understand what ur talking about

[Visaeres]

@Literal Retired ripper, yet continues to rip lol

[Literal]

@Visaeres i got bored

[hugh Jass]

is there any update to this guide? i saw someone rip a relatively new avatar recently so kinda thought it was still possible. theres one particular asset i need and the site i was originally using got hacked, so i cant get it anymore unless i get it from an existing avi.

[agent287]

@hugh-Jass this guide no longer works due to vrchat encrypting the _data files / the vrcas. theres free resources in the guide in my bio if you would like to take a look at them

[hugh Jass]

@agent287 i know it no longer works, which is why i asked if there was an update to it. your bio says only private avatars, which seems kinda backwards.

[agent287]

@hugh-Jass ?

[Literal]

@hugh-Jass When VRChat changed their way of storing avatars, it made this obsolete! What he is using an recommending is a Bot services that swaps into a avatar id and decrypts the bundle! When people are talking about getting private avatars, thats a different ball game! Its either you know someone who has the file, or you have an external tool that lets you decrypt incoming __Data files. The limitations on Private avatars is that someone has to be in the instance with the avatar creator, wearing it to actively pull it!

[hugh Jass]

@Literal yea i already kinda understood allat about changing the way of storing avatars, i was just hoping theres an updated method to actually decrypt it, similar to how i saw someone do recently.
