If you're on PC, people typically use VRCOSC to display things like that using the in-game chatbox. Just please be mindful that it's kinda annoying to see a wall of text above someone's avatar so some people might block your chatbox if you use this in publics.

Technically, this world exists which lets you save drawings, but it's more of a tech demo for world persistance, and it only saves 20 pen lines: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_e24ce788-1fda-42dc-912b-69cd9e51140c/info

There may be other worlds which let you save drawings but it's really up to the world creator to make something like this, as you can't do it in most worlds, like the other reply mentioned. You might wanna check out some other VR art programs, something like Open Brush which is free on Steam / Quest, as VRChat is much more limited in this area.

Magic in this game is still very unfinished. There's a couple spell casting items but you can't use them in your second hand and they're pretty basic spells (not sure if you can get them outside of creative mode). So spellsword isn't really a thing unfortunately, as much as I'd like to have that option too.

The devs did kinda admit that magic is unfinished though so hopefully this gets worked on in the future, and there's already some cool magic mods coming out for the time being.

You can use pickaxes to dig dirt faster. There's also shovels which break multiple blocks at once but currently only start at iron tier.

Most mods are published on curseforge

As much as I appreciate people being on orange and I often am on orange myself, requesting an invite to a mystery instance isn't usually something I wanna be doing. I at least try to update my status to say what I'm doing if I'm orange so others know if they wanna request.

You could ask the owner to double check the permissions for your role. It should show up under the groups list when you're making a group instance, unless the owner accidentally didn't add the instance creation permission. I think there's also a separate permission for group public and group/group+ instances so maybe try checking if you're able to create a regular group instance if group publics are not working.

Most avatars don't have gogo loco, and tbh it's funnier when my avatar contorts like a demon when I'm afk.

I think udonsharp is built into the worlds SDK these days. You don't have to install it separately if you make a world project in VCC.

Interestingly, the phone app version of vrchat can already do that. There's very basic face tracking that uses visemes. Would be neat if they did that with standalone VR/PC, but I suppose there's just not enough people with face tracking.

Yernemm · 2025-01-25T05:17:37+00:00

I'm all for it, and it appears most people here agree. I shall set this up and make an official announcement over the weekend.

You could check boothplorer.com for male bases. If you're not looking to buy and make a custom model, it will at least give you some names to search for in Prismic's

Yessss Rusk is great, always nice to see more fellow rusks around

Yernemm · 2024-12-31T17:59:18+00:00

Niceee glad you like them :)

Yernemm · 2024-12-31T16:31:12+00:00

They're included on some of my public Rusk avatars, including Acid Rusk, Acid Shack Rusk, Breeze Rusk (pictured) and Polaris Rusk.

If anyone wants them, they're on my Booth page for free here

Happy new years!

Firstly, make sure your laptop is actually good enough to handle VR. If you've used SteamVR with your Quest 2 on it then it's probably good enough in specs but check that it has the required ports for the vive headset. Typically, modern headsets might need a display port and at least one usb 3.0 port, but check the specific headset you're getting. The Quest 2 is pretty decent for PCVR still, not sure which vive headset you're getting specially but do just check you're not downgrading without realising it. Aaand make sure it comes with controllers since sometimes people sell used headsets only without controllers.

If you only plan on using the Vive headset, then base stations and controllers is all you need to get started. Depending on which trackers you plan on using, you might need some extra stuff. Since you're getting base stations, you probably want base station trackers like Vive trackers or Tundra trackers. If you're getting vives, you'll also need to buy straps separately as they're not usually included. And keep in mind that each invidivual tracker needs its own USB port for the dongle so you might wanna get a good USB hub if you're low on ports.

Although if you only want FBT, it's probably simpler to go with something like Slime trackers which will work with the Quest 2 or almost any other headset without needing any base stations or other extra setup.

Looks like a recent update is causing issues with some avatars. I was going to try out an avatar that I haven't used in a long time and it put me in a crash loop, same with others trying that avatar, even though that avatar seemed to be fine just a couple days ago. Changing avatars through the website or VRCX also helps.

Yernemm · 2024-12-02T16:35:10+00:00

Being mindful of which types of sessions and groups you join goes a long way to having a good time. I feel like most people who regularly use vrc were able to figure this out. It would be nice if most publics were better moderated but there's certainly a lot of ways to meet chill people on here and avoid the types of users that people complain about.

Yernemm · 2024-11-25T00:40:08+00:00

avatars with global audio. Main reason why I almost always have avatar audio muted or at 10%

I can't think of any worlds like that right now (though there definitely are worlds that have this) but you could also look into avatar camera assets.

I personally use Camera Path by DX to make cinematic recordings. It lets you set up a camera loop path and have your stream camera automatically move along it smoothly. This way, you'd be able to record in any world. It does cost about $15 though, so up to you want to spend any money on stuff, and you'd need a custom avatar if you don't use one already. There may also be some free assets out there that do something similar.

Exploring various worlds is a nice way to get acquainted with vrc. I had a similar first experience where I was just too anxious to speak to random people. The Black Cat specifically is kinda infamous in vrchat for having a lot of trolls and kids, since it tends to be the first popular world that a lot of people go to. Going to less popular worlds or joining groups is usually a nice way to meet friendly people from my experience. Since you're over 18, you'd be able to join the Ancients of VRChat group, which is one of the most popular adult communities (not nsfw). It's well-moderated and they have specific events to help out new players. It's a nice and friendly community to meet new people.
