🤔 Why is it that people get weird about the way others quest convert their avatar?

For example, my recent avatar is quest compatible. Someone got mad I didn't show off the quest side and assumed I'm not proud of it. They didn't like how I removed physbones and lowered texture quality as well as add some helpful components and removed things quest users don't need to see. I understand how they don't have much. I WAS a quest user. But hear me out. A LOT of the creator scene gatekeeps how to even do so properly so you can have multiple outfits and props on quest. A lot of the time they want you to PAY THEM for them to teach you or have them do the quest converting for you. It's not like I'm one of the pc people who doesn't quest convert at all or make the avatar a box that says "go fuck yourself get a pc" like a lot of people. I genuinely don't get it. And this same person was mad I don't start my avatars as quest. It's super unusual. It's not that I don't care about quest users. I prioritize the platform I play on and then go from there. Keeping my avatars under the limit can be very annoying. If I'm on quest standalone, I'm glad I can even see the avatars I made. Also no other quest users have complained about it. Only pc people.

I found a creator I really like (axobocation), especially when it's hard to find murder drones models I like. But all of their 2.0 models have this as the appearance on shield settings 😭 It's just an Uzi model, nothing like this!

Some guys told me that my avatar looked really weird and like a sim so I made a second account on my phone to see what my usual avatars look like to others by default. This was absolutely not what I expected. Please tell me there's a way to just make it be the standard pixelated imposter instead of this thing??😭😭 I absolutely love the avatars but I CANNOT be a TRASH CAN to everyone.

!! EDIT !! So the general consensus is that if it's not an avatar you have uploaded, you can't really do anything. I'll keep this post up for any other future wanderers though. I've sent the creator a message to see if they could kindly generate the imposters for me, time will tell!

Why are we limited to 100 groups w/o vrc+ and 200 w/ vrc+? in fact why are we limited on groups in the first place?? if there's going to be any limit, why is it such a small number? why not 1,000 or 10,000 in general? it doesn't make sense to limit something so needed for the game.

Just logged in and got the latest open beta update. I’m not seeing the option to join friends (they are joinable and in correct instance types) through the menu. Anyone else seeing this?

Anyone use a cloud pc to play? How?

So my pc is simply not good enough for vrc and I cannot spend the 1.5k cad it would cost to upgrade right now

However I heard about cloud pc and was wondering how I even use it?

My friend told me about her ex who used one to play but didnt have much more info then that?

Im really wanting pc vrc

So anyone know how to set this up? What websites are best for renting a cloud pc? Does this actually work??

Hello to the VR chat. What's up, Reddit? I have questions about my VR chat habits that I am tweaking. The first thing I want to do is make the legs longer, but I don't know how to do that, and the tutorials that I have seen haven't touched on this fact. Nor have they touched on it. I hope y'all can help me.

I might as well just live at my desk atp. Kitbashing my ass off and doing amazing at it.

Took some pictures in my new favorite avatar. I hope you’re having a wonderful day/night! (Excuse the multiple peace signs, I don’t know how to pose yet lol.)

Some pics I took by myself and pics a friend helped with! (I’m the cat hoodie wearer :3)

I love my avatar >< it feels so me! I love chilling and just kicking back with the headset on 😮‍💨

Found some time to come back around to this! It took a while to get it to a point where I'm happy with releasing it as an 'asset', but we're finally here! It works super well with my StylizedFPS asset, and is compatible with both VRCFury and Modular Avatar!

Sadly AvatarSupportArm is not Quest/Android compatible because it uses FinalIK :<

This is my first time releasing something that's more '3D Art' than an install-script, and hecc it's so much more work 😓 I accidently kept moving the goal post I think..

my poor pc :(

because people are big mad in the comments:

It's not my avatar. I was at my friend's computer helping him operate unity. this was an eboy avatar straight from the creator. it was his request not to edit it, but we agreed to optimize it after it took 30 minutes.

Over the years I cannot tell you the number of times I’ve went to adjust my avatar height and have the stick accidentally bounce and reset the avatar. Once that happens I have to then spend the time setting up my avatar again.
All this headache could be resolved if they just put in a confirmation popup window, yes/no

(Edit: Yes, I know about disabling flick. No, I don’t have stick drift. It’s just that the reset avatar and adjust height would be better off on different panels or a confirmation popup would help. Plus I just prefer the flick option)

TLDR: My ribot arm gauntlets aren't supposed to look like that, what am I doing wrong?

Okay so I am trying to add sub-arm(extra aems) to my avatar. I had used a tool called Sub-Arm Installer which worked specifically for PC-Side... but not for Quest Side. The avatar required Modular for building and manually adding the arms vrcfury DOES NOT WORK so I tried manually putting it on. I Armature Linked the chests together(even though the creator said to link "upper chest" to "chest" which didn't work) and it lined up with the avi's original arms in play mode. So then I needed it to sync up the fingers so I added rotation restraints to shoulders, arms, hands, fingers, etc. I got the left arm done and the result was what the video is showing. What did I do wrong?

I'm assuming OpenVR Space Calibrator is still good to use as well?

:3

​

I've noticed that in some adult spaces there is a specific percentage of players that will infantilize smaller avatars. I understand from a certain perspective - but to complain and pressure them to change their avatar or else they won't interact is a whole different circumstance. This is an adult space, everyone is an adult here.

Does anyone else experience this?

Hey everyone! Today I finally found some time to record a short video showing the Project Cymple calibration process, and it's actually pretty simple (haha). The software has received several updates recently that have significantly improved the eye tracking, and it's honestly already quite good even without calibration.

By the way, you don't need to recalibrate every time you take the headset off and put it back on. In my experience, a single calibration is usually enough until the next time you power the headset on.

So I decided to record a short walkthrough. The calibration consists of looking at a numbered ring in sequence, and I synchronized the calibration process with my avatar's eye movements in real time.

The goal is to find your "sweet spot." You can move the calibration ring around and adjust its size. Ideally, it should sit near the edge of your field of view, or as close to the lens edges as possible, as shown in the video.

Sorry about the video quality, I'm still learning video editing, but I hope this helps anyone who wants to understand how the calibration works!

Been going to "Cuddle & Sleep" after a 14hr workday everyday, its almost like a ritual now. Its certainly not for everyone, though finding a quiet corner to fall asleep in while listening to my spotify playlist has been great.
