Okay um I asked many places in discord but haven't found an answer yet soooo... Just like the title, how to set up PCSS properly because I followed the instructions they provided as well as @PokenaPup (tiktok) but it didn't work out well. Like they said to drag & drop model to the window but I couldn't see any PCSS setup window appeared at all though I retried many times. Any help appreciated, thank you!

I have not messed with this shader recently but I remember having the same issue when I tried using it a while ago. I had imported everything but no matter what I did the 'nHaruka' option didn't appear in my project and I was never really able to fix it. I just ended up creating a new Unity project and using it there. I know that's probably not what you want to hear, but you could try making a new project and importing it before anything else to check if it works there solo and then just bringing in whatever avatar from your other project into that one.
I wish there was a decent tutorial provided by the creator because I always see people having issues with it and it is really cool and I'd likely use it more if I understood the system better.
I looked up the person's video that you are referencing and that is how it works simply. They honestly should go over the actual settings and creating of masks, etc. -

It's kinda funny how the item is popular and has a lot of sales but I can barely find an actual tutorial for it. I will try your method to see how it turns out, thank you ^^

Sorry that I'm not an English speaker, so my explanation might be hard to understand. I had that exact same symptom a while ago, and found out that it was caused by compatibility error with some tools you pre uploaded through VCC. what I was having compatibility error was "Hai~ Combo gesture expressions" and other Hai~ series tools. I recommand you to try removing some tools that you do not need right now. Also after importing PCSS unity package in to your scene, if you move the location of the nHaruka folder, it emmits error when setting up PCSS on to your avatar, so just leave it as where it is as you imported. I hope it helped out your problem, if it did not I'm so sorry. Also I want to thank you for sharing all the good stuff you uploaded. Sorry for the messy English. I hope you fix your problem, good luck.

I'll attempt to make the setup as easy as possible in five steps for anyone who is having issues installing PCSS:
What you require:
-
The most recent or comparatively more recent iteration of Poiyomi/Poiyomi Toon or Liltoon
-
The most recent or comparatively more recent version of PCSS
SETUP:
Step 1 : Import the main shader (such as Liltoon or Poiyomi) that you want to utilize with PCSS.Step 2: Import your PCSS.
Step 3: Select "PCSS for VRC" from the "nHaruka" tab at the top where "File, edit, SDK," etc., are located.
Step 4: Drag your avatar from the Hierarchy into the top box. Once you get to the check box after dragging your avatar, If your avatar has WriteDefaults, keep it checked; if not, uncheck it.
Step 5: Press the large button at the bottom to then select the setup button.
ta-da you now have PCSS
hope you find this helpful
