TODAY I LEARNED (TIL): VRC EDITION

eiron

Tell us something you learned Today or recently about anything vrchat related.

I'll go first.

TIL how to combine several shapekeys in blender into a new separate shapekey.
It's useful for creating custom facial expressions or body shapes.
rather than having to toggle several individually each time.
this video taught me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYn04mvflmA

NOW YOUR TURN

it doesn't have to be educational.
could be just interesting, funny or strange etc.

Well a few days ago I learned how to look a little better on Quest Vrchat with a simple fix to one of the shaders using this video: https://youtu.be/mYzE4do3NWU?si=fnX_Uqy2KvnkrgOp.

I also learned that you can combine a bunch of physbones for better optimization!

i'll post a few i find :

add --watch-avatars to your steam command
when working on a avatar, wear it in the build test thing
and now, each time you update and build, it'll automatically update in vrc
so no more buggy select thingy
i discover this shader Warren's fast fur.
seems to provide good fur for really good performance, i have not test it, but there is a free version i you want to test
if you use any komado avatar (karin, rusk, ect) you can be pretty sure all clothes are interchangeable, to be sure follow this
if you use booth avi (idk if it work for gunroad one), please use Modular Avatar for setup clothes, more easy, less crap everywhere
when you are building a project, please use at maximum non destructive app, it'll make thing easier for you
If you use liltoon and find that your lighting have a problem, right click on your avi -> liltoon-> fix lightning
