    Please note you wont get the full package with all functionality working
    3.0 or 2.0 models along side shaders will not be pulled when ripping

          @Literal can you try to dig deep into VRChat and try to find the Nyasuka avatar? also it's kinda privated but that model was the thing that made me keep remembering my ex-boyfriend. it's called Nyasuka Funny and it was published by Bradash, also can you and Nude options to the avatar? thanks. -Markus

            (add) sorry, I have big fingers, so I can't type properly, plus I usually look at the screen and not the keyboard, can you add Nude options to the avatar?

                    @OfficialMTSW I was able to pull out this avatar, or rather a personal version of Laibzer. But the avatar's Index is broken. I can give you the original files to rip up. If you can unzip them in a working form, I would be grateful if you could share it in such a way.

                      I saw a post and some people saying that this is causing bans! i would like to state this method is neither risky or can get you caught within a ban. this is a manual method for cache grabbing. You could theoretically do this with no internet nor connection to any VRChat or Unity Services. on top of that you can use an old version of asset ripper offline. if you are getting banned its because you are openly telling people you are ripping or a avatar creator reported you after ripping there stuff. on top of that i know if you are user of SARS that got detected not to long ago from what im told. it might be better now i have no idea. i still do this method with NO ban!

                        Thank you for the tutorial. I managed to extract the files using AssetRipper, but how do I import them back into VRC? Could you elaborate on this or perhaps point me to where I can find this info?

                              because you closed the assetripper when it's extracting or you closed it in general.

                                @IMAXwPC Make sure that asset ripper stays open. it should open a local host website for ripping! Dont close that or the Console when ripping

                                    @Myong Cache files (VRCA and VRCW) are now encrypted and require a handshake with the VRChat server to be decrypted on load. As of right now, you can no longer rip or hotswap avatars

                                      @GordonRamsMe These models were ripped along side a few others on the same day and time and before they apparently encrypted them + most of the other models i attempted to pull from that batch worked but there was just 3-4 that werent working/throwing similar errors to what i linked so i doubt its because of that

                                          Is there any website to download avatars by ID, or containing vrchat caches? i'm trying to get just a single one avatar, but its being almost impossible.
                                          i tried SARS, got a key for it just to find out downloading isn't implemented anymore.
                                          Tried assetripper but... of course that doesn't work anymore. All i managed to do is to get the avatar CAB files using UABEAvalonia. My hopes on inspecting vrchat http requests are gone too, since they use a handshake. I even wondered about looking into ram, since vrchat has to store the avatar decrypted somewhere anyway, but that's not possible on windows.

                                          I just wanted this single one avatar, and all i have is those CAB files and the ID of it. Can someone please help me or at least team up? then maybe we can find out a way to extract or download it together.

                                          Looking for someone who can bypass avatar encryption. I just need to get a single avatar. Still have the ID of it.
