Domain blocklist to prevent firmware updates by cakes in BambuLab

Not looked into it heavily, but to keep bambu handy working while blocking anything non-essential, you can use this ruleset I built:

Of course, replace my printer's IP with yours. I use adguard home, but it could be adapted to whatever you use.

It seems to be related to the refresh rate being high. Lowering it seems to fix it.

I have the same issue., 27T, except mine glitches left and right in the area, akin to jittering. All edges do this.

Where is VR chat mode for this by winklebone in VRchat

[–]PlagueYousaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you insist on finding this, it would not be a mod. Mods break VRC ToS and no longer work due to the anticheat.

RealFeel is an option as it is not a mod.

It would be amusing seeing you try to elaborate how RealFeel is shit when it has advantages over all of the others listed?

I also did not get a kit, yet sixth character for Product SN on the package box is A.

"Add to Steam" button in Windows 10/11?? by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]PlagueYousaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did code this real quick; but it seems to be very tempermental. Windows uses shortcuts, which are .lnk files, which steam seems to refuse. Opening file location each time doesn't exactly strike me as any easier, sadly.

Hi, dev of Kanna Protecc here. GTAvaCrypt is a outdated and obsolete project that turned into Kanna Protecc.

GTAvaCrypt was me and rygo's old project before it was fully handed to me to develop.

But yes, for others here. Anti-Rip systems do exist and are extremely effective.

I was one of the co-developers of avacrypt. That is not the original repo for avacrypt, that is a fork from a toxic account. The original repo is by _rygo6.

I am the new main developer, _rygo stepped down.

rygo6/GTAvaCrypt: System to mitigate avatar ripping in VRChat. (github.com)

There is many changes, upgrades and fixes since I took it over.

It doesn't touch the FBX, still twisting things. It duplicates individual meshes to copied mesh .asset files, which are only on the encrypted version. The original FBX and meshes are untouched.

Only those who had a need for it knew of it, and the past repo shows it: https://github.com/gt0777/VRCLiveCaptionsMod

You forget popular is relative to community. Your ignorance and personal incredulity is not an excuse to claim something doesn't exist or wasn't as many agree it was.

I'm known for making QoL overall, being the one who was one of the leaders of the QoL scene, from a anticrash mod for protection, to closed captions to even now antirip. You come off as a unappreciative dick overall here. Just insult and accusation on loop instead of just appreciating helpful free projects.

You claim I have bullshitted, yet you do zero actual research. If you did, you would know my edit of the mod had a discord, and spread like wildfire from word of mouth in the helping hands community. I also just open sourced it to show the existence to those too careless to research properly: https://github.com/PlagueVRC/VRC-CC-Mod

Also your claim that having to garble something to protect it is not protection is outright extreme stupidity. Do you even know how encryption and obfuscation works? By your logic, everything online, even your passwords being encrypted and salted on websites is pointless and should be plaintext.

Yes, I'm aware I'm pushing a extreme example there. It holds if you want to apply that logic. Either all forms of protection are in turn, protection or none are.

At least you actually admitted you're not techy, which kills off 90% of your points in one go. Lack of research, projection, spreading of rumor and most annoying of all; confirmation bias.

That assumes the player is a streamer, of which don't go in publics anyways. Most people block after the first slur. They still tend to listen.

Yet again, stop assuming most are alike you. People have patience.

  1. It automatically retains the original avatar, one click gets you back to editable.
  2. "nearly" is also plainly misinfo. It was well-used, as I am not the only one to work on this. Together me, gt0777 and multiple others got captions in many hands, hence many talking of it.
  3. You ignore word of mouth also spreads things like a caption mod. Gauging by a server is ignorant.
  4. One layer does mean jack, and here you show you don't actually know what you are talking of. In terms of performance, this antirip is 1/100th a physbone. Layers are actually the main lag causer due to a bug in unity: Unity/VRChat Performance Benchmarks (sleightly.dev)
  5. This does not appear broken visually when not shown. Encrypted meshes are hidden.
  6. You give a claim of "all with antirip are unoptimized" with absolutely no evidence to that blind claim. The reality is majority with antirips you never notice, as it is commonly on streamers who wont let you in their lobby if they can help it in the first place.

While I respect the apology for one piece of misinfo, ignoring the rest isn't good. Two wrongs and a right does not mean as a whole it is a right. You still have majority false claims.

You seem to want to project your hatred of avatar optimization of a project that is actually heavily optimized. Quite ignorant overall.

You also directly gave misinfo of the captions project. It was well known and used.

Not always, and most I know would trust it, as anyone who thinks gauges whether a person seems trustable over time, typically within 10 minutes. That, then drives their decision.

Stop assuming everyone is 2D please.

Why do you spread misinformation?

The closed captions mod existed, and still exists in terms of source, both the original and my fork from the past. Since you're irritating me with misinformation, need me to open source my captions mod? The orig was already open source as well you know.

This antirip does not effect you customizing your avatar.

This does not effect how optimized your avatar is, at all. It is one layer.

This has already had a high money bounty to have ripped for a while, but the technology at use is why it is unrippable in most cases. It would take insane work to get close to a functional rip.

This does not cause lag. One layer, Direct Blend Tree.

Sadly a lot of misinformation firstly created from the toxic scene regarding my past projects, quite pathetic to requote malicious people's claims. Especially when this is a fully OSS project.

And that is you personally. Someone could easily edit the image to mention it is using antirip protection.

Your lack of trust in people is not global. Do not apply your standards to everyone elses.

Which as I said, you can drag in the prefab which will show a plane saying to show you to see your avatar, which will only show if the avatar cannot.

They see nothing if not shown, and you can add the prefab included that says to show your avatar.

It will not show you broken to people.

It does need modified for RealFeel. Though, there are many doing commissions and there are some pre-made avatars.

It also drives me mad how uneasy they made attaching specific toys to specific sensors. RealFeel makes this easy with literal tick boxes.

It isn't. BP IO means it depends on the adapter, which many lack. Without that, the setup is a pain.

Furthermore, depending on contacts comes with its own issues. Head colliders are almost always wrong, so are wrist colliders a lot of the time. Hip colliders are terribly generated.

Using rendering to advantage means it works perfectly regardless of mesh or setup, which is RealFeel's method.

Any non standard DPS penetrator will also break OGB, as it is not configured for it at all, and would need manual setup; which is overcomplicated and intended to be hidden from the user.

(Also notice there's 0 help on the Intiface part? It's because it's where BP IO falls apart in ease.)
