Nice!

Sure whats the prob?

@@wron1 i wanted to let some stuff on my avatar to glow but it dosent work idk if u have discord or something else where i could show u what i want to glow maybe u could help me how i do that

Thank so much! Happy its helping people out

Yea this functionality is a bit more tricky relative to its in game functionality. What is the issue that you're running into?

@@wron1 so I do everything they say and it works in Unity but when I go into either play mode on Unity or VRchat itself, the wheel doesn’t work at all

@@BunFrFr Ah gotcha, just assuming your animations work by themselves, some possible (and quite common) issues that you should double check are your base layer weight in your animator is 1 and not 0, check that the animator is added onto your model and added into the FX layer of your avatar descriptor, and also check out your blend tree animations. The section at 2:28 is really key and if the checking process at 3:10 doesn't work for you I would double check your animations. Hopefully this might help you out some.

@@wron1 Alright thank you! I’ll try this out in a bit and get back to you!

@@wron1 thank you! I was able to figure it out! Much appreciated!

Sorry man my time is really valuable as of recent so I'll have to decline. I would recommend checking out some creator discords and looking for some people to help you out there.

If you go into your object properties tab (orange square in the sidebar located 4 above bone properties) then go to Viewport Display and select Display As "Wire" which will make your bones only display their outline. In my case typically CATS just changes that for me when I fix a model. Hope this helps!

@@wron1 Wire option just shows them as straight lines for me so that's not it. But I downloaded Blender 2.93 and it seems older Blender version automatically shows bones like this. The new 3.5 Blender I just couldn't find that option and I tried everything under Viewport. :S

@@kassixo Oh okay, I believe you may have been in the bone settings? I'm talking about the tab shown here: docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/editors/properties_editor.html but then again it could be a discrepancy between versions or something, blender is so weird sometimes lol. Hope you find a permanent fix!

@@wron1 omg YES that seems to do it! Thank you so much! For some reason earlier Blender versions had that option on default and honestly none of the avatar creators have been able to help with this so far, so I thought it just got changed in newer Blender. TYSMMM!

@@kassixo Noice! Glad I could help!

Glad the vid helped!

Ah gotcha, so assuming you're running into a similar issue I was having, I believe the way to remedy this is to have an item on your character which doesn't disappear completely. The issue I ran into was that I would toggle off the model and then this would cause there to be no controller or anything to be toggled back on (atleast to my knowledge). So only toggling the player mesh off and keeping something visible with an invisible shader was how I fixed my problem. I haven't seen how other people do it but there may be a better way than my suggestion. Hope this helps some!

Glad it helped!

Not sure to be honest. I made this tutorial with PC models in mind only. I have seen some amazing things done for quest though also. I would highly recommend searching for a quest specific tutorial!

@@wron1 from what i saw, on quest you can only use the "toonlit" texture, so basically it won't glow. Maybe there's a way to do that but after searching for a whole week and found nothing, i just give up😅

Sweet! Glad my vid is still helping people out!

My b for the late reply, it is just due to mesh mapping to the bone. You can do this the same way you add clothes to a model. If you mean how did I move the bone with my mouse which moved the head, then that is by changing to pose mode and rotating the bone.

Ah sorry for the late reply, I've personally never experienced this problem. Even swapping between models my avatar settings stay the same. Perhaps there is an update that might have changed that, but I would double check your toggles. Is this happening with any other toggles on your model, besides the radial wheel ones?

@@wron1 all good, turns out i just didn't tick the "saved" box

Hmmm you could try removing the shape keys? Assuming this is on the clothing/item you are adding onto the model. Which armature modifier and which mesh is having the issue? Is the mesh the model or the added item? You definitely don't want to remove the shape keys on the model. Something that I always try which can be time consuming but save my sanity is running similar procedures in blender using similar items that I can keep as a sort of baseline

So I'm not 100% sure of a fix since it could be a variety of things causing it. However assuming it's due to the methods in the video a possible reason could be due to the animation timings set to change materials. It is possible that you have some overlap causing the materials to toggle back and forth at rest. You could also possibly have some conflicting toggles adding different materials at the same time

Im not entirely sure on the process since I have never tried that method, however I did find a video which might be what you're looking for here: ua-cam.com/video/qMi4NM5-ZAA/v-deo.html However this version seems to be a bit complex, hope it helps!

Thanks for adding that link it is helpful, I'll have a look at the blend shapes in Unity and see if I can get other clothes to fit different Avatars for VRChat.

Ah yea so the animator controls all of the animations and the way unity handles animations is object based. So running animations on a duplicate is essentially the same as working on the original. This whole system, however, is most likely outdated due to how quickly updates have come out for the SDK since. Feel free to work out of the original!

@@wron1 thank you for the quick reply!

Or a specific blendshape

@@kaimatter2748 I'm not 100% on blendshapes but for clothing I have a video detailing more complex toggles here: ua-cam.com/video/H0IgLzfHuMk/v-deo.html I would assume that toggling blendshapes can also be done the same way. Hope it helps!

That sounds like a bounding box issue, I highly recommend checking out this creator's video. They explain this situation very well, ua-cam.com/video/ox6d9Pd9AnY/v-deo.html

Thanks a bunch!

Not sure what you mean, are you asking if you can download this process so you can drag and drop it onto your model?

@@wron1 no I'm asking if you need to import a tool or is it already in the vrchat SDK3

@@jakecoles1575 Ah gotcha! Its just a part of the VrChat expression menu which is included in the SDK. If you right click in the file window and select create new, click on VrChat and then you'll see the options for the parameter/expression menus, just in case you didn't know! 4:06 is where I cover the addition of the radial wheel. Its just called radial puppet inside the menu. So in game when selected you'll get that cool wheel!

@@wron1 sorry for the late reply it worked thank you

Oooh um, I guess just being really patient with it is my best advice. Some models are gonna have biiig shoulders and clothes will just look weird. Something you can do is toggle off the body underneath the clothing when the hoodie is on and toggle the body on when the hoodie is off. That way you dont have to fight with the shoulders and can keep the look of the hoodie

Aye! Nice! Im so glad it helped!

Oh sorry about that, I'll try and label/zoom more next time, thanks for letting me know!

It sounds like there may be an issue in your expressions menu perhaps? I would double check that my toggle parameter is the same throughout, it could also be a really simple mistake like having the base layer not set to 1. It sounds like it is working though so there is some hope!

it does the same for me, did you find a solution?

As of the finished product at the end you would be 100% ready to go in unity. The only requirements for something to be toggle-able in unity is that it is a separate mesh from the main model (case by case of course). So in the blender hierarchy if you can delete something/hide something without it effecting your main model then that is the exact effect that it will have in unity with a toggle!

@@wron1 Oh alrigh, tysm

Well particularly with female models its a bit more necessary due to all the bouncy bits, a large part of the time clipping comes down to polygons not lining up. So if your shirt is a lower poly count then your body they won't act the same way during motion and you'll get a lot of clipping. Using high quality clothing assets built specifically around your model is how people tend to avoid clipping. However there are some tricks. Like, you can completely hide parts of the body that tend to push through clothing, sides of the boobs, nipples, shoulders, waist, etc. Then this way when the clothing is on the body mesh underneath is not visible. I believe that this might be what you're referring too. This method does result in some issues in some viewing angles which you can definitely fix. I suppose you could also shrink down parts of the body that is definitely something you can do, however I feel like you might run into some issues assuming you scale down to 50% and the clothing and body are weighed the same. I've never tried it but there miiight be some issues perhaps. Ultimately these would just be toggles/animations done in unity. So like when you toggle on the clothing you also toggle off the body/toggle the body part shrink Hope some of this helps!

Amazing! Glad it worked for you, I think this might be one of my more complicated tutorials so I'm glad it worked for you! Also trust me even with doing this for a while I still make small mistakes lol

Did you ever find a solution for this? When I move the neck bone the head moves great with the neck. When I move the head bone up, I see a hole into the head even tho I connected the verticied from the head to the neck. Is this because they're still a separate mesh? 😵‍💫

@@kaylak1761 I didn't find a solution, but I realized that sometimes it's the skin, it's poor to do it with another body and there was no problem, but when I used it with the one I had, then the error just appeared, it seems that the error depends on the skin Not all of them have that error

From blender you just need to have a version of the model with everything on it. In unity you can turn things on or off and those on/off states carry into vrchat, hope this helps a bit!

@@wron1 ill try it out myself and see if i can figure it out, thank you ^^''

It might be because you aren't in edit mode? Try selecting the armature then clicking tab

@@wron1 I was in edit mode which is why it was weird, and when selecting Armature it of course highlights it all, but then when shift clicking, it doesn't do anything. I ended up needing to switch to pose mode to get it to work, but then that for some reason broke all the texture paths for the other model

@@lildevilvr5711 Oh man thats weird, you ran 'Fix Model' on both models before making the edits?

@@wron1 I ran it I believe just on the one after removing the body and armature from the models head I'm moving over. Perhaps that is where the issue arose. I'll try again tonight

@@lildevilvr5711 Forsure, models are suuper inconsistent, let me know how it goes!
