TUTORIAL [How to find a VRCA]
-
Hello, so i've been wandering around hearing people talk about how they want to rip a model but don't know where to find the VRCA without using a client or an external program
Hopefully this guide will teach you how to find the model you always wanted to borrow!
Step 1: Launch VRChat
When inside VRChat everything you download or loads goes into a cache directory inside your LocalLow Folder.Step 2: Finding where the cache is being stored.
On your keyboard tap Windows Key + R at the same time. inside the run text boxt type "appdata"
Once inside app data your gonna look for the folder called LocalLow
Goto the VRChat folder
Open the Cache-WindowsPlayer Folder
Great that means we now know where the models VRCA Is being stored
Now you should see something like this
Step 3: Clear Cache
With this folder open and the game open, while tabbed into the folder do the keybind Ctrl+A then delete everything. 2 things will not be deleted as the world and the avatar you are sitting in is whats being used.
This is what it should look like after the deletion
Note: Make sure to remember what the original 2 so when you swap to the model you dont have to go digging again!Step 4: Getting the VRCA
Swap into the model that you are desiring, and pay attention to the folder a new one should appear after the model is loaded. should look something like this below
Open the new folders and take _data and copy it to a new location
There you go now you know how to take a VRCA. just so people can understand _Data is the VRCA without all the fancy clients renaming it for ease of use.
If you're looking to rip the VRCA I would recommend AssetRipper
I saw a FBX Tutorial somewhere in this forum so i would recommend looking at that if you want the FBX from something!Hopefully this helped!
