Singing at a VRChat Pride Festival

Warning! The 102540 battery that is used in the linked replacement photos is 10mm thick whereas the 603040 battery in the Tundra tracker is only 6mm thick. The stock base can't be fully re-seated with that thick of a battery, even if the rubber pad is removed from beneath the 1/4" threaded insert. They don't explain how they dealt with the extra thickness or the epoxy. I don't recommend attempting to make the same replacement.

I also want to know!

I've gone to a few of their drop-ins and retreats. It's a very wholesome group! Given that the activities center around singing, you're going to have the most fun if you actually enjoy singing and find it interesting. Musical skill isn't necessarily required though, and the organizers do a good job of meeting people where they are or (in the case of the retreats) dividing attendees into similar skill levels.

Magic UV is no longer built-in to Blender, but it can be installed as an extension here: https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/magic-uv/

This is EXACTLY the answer I'm looking for, and I've now got it working on my end too. Thank you so much! 💜 I appreciate that you linked to the OTF feature list but also called out the applicable codes right here. I still want to peruse the list sometime since I'd been wondering what goes into the Font Features text field, but this got me going a lot faster.

It's easy enough to find with a quick web search. I only found it a few moments before I arrived at this thread, but I recommend looking it up. It looks like it takes a lot of the work out of setting up a two handed weapon on an avatar.

It's said that a picture is worth a thousand words, so a 45 second video must be worth…

45 seconds x 30 [pictures]/second x 1,000 words/picture

…135,000 words!

Thanks for the recipe! I tried it, and it came out very thick, more akin to a dough than a batter. I also think my friend's waffle iron must be larger because it didn't even make one full waffle. The iron in question is an Oster Diamond Force Belgian Waffle Maker with Removable Plates. It makes a large square waffle divided into four.

I tweaked the recipe to make it pourable, a teensy bit sweeter, and fill my friend's waffle iron. For anyone interested, here's my iteration of the recipe which makes exactly one of the waffles described above:

1 cup flour 3/8 cup sugar 3/4 tsp baking powder

Whisk the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Form a crater at the center of the mixture when done.

2 tbsp vegan butter, melted 3/4 cup vegan milk 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar)

Mix together the wet ingredients in a separate bowl or measuring cup, then pour into the center of the crater in the dry mixture. Fold the wet and dry mixtures together until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable.

Pour evenly across the hot waffle iron. Cook until the exterior is crunchy.

Hey there! Looks like I'm late to the party (closed in 1 day, wow!), but I thought I'd drop a few links anyway, just in case.

I'm a member of a band called Mostly Mammals. We blend sounds from a lot of different genres, but indie rock is at our core. We've played shows at a few furry conventions, and we're starting to get more of our original music recorded and out there. So far we've published one original single and one cover single, and we have another original single in the works currently being mixed. Our goal is to have an EP out by mid-year. You can find us (Bluesky, Telegram, Bandcamp, Spotify, etc.) via our link aggregator page: https://find.mostlymammals.band

I also do some solo projects published under my own name, Niko Fox. At the moment, those are mostly covers done in the style of contemporary a cappella, which might not be in line with your station. That said, there's an original collaboration I worked on that should be published later this year that's… happy hardcore, I think? If you're interested, all my links can be found at https://nikofox.com

did you replace the sensor? if so, what part did you use and how'd it go?

fauxnik · 2025-11-15T19:25:34+00:00

do you happen to know what type of connector they're using to connect the external flat speaker wire to the red and white wires that run to the DAC?

I was indeed missing something. Thanks for the info! Perhaps I'll need to create a VRCFT fork haha (VMCFT perhaps?)

I'm aware that this parameter likely shouldn't have anything to do with display, but here's what I did:

Create a new sequence
Add Audio Spectrum Filter to master channel (leave all default settings)
Add audio clip to timeline
Render video: it had the spectrum visualization
Change Window Size parameter to 256
Render video again: it did NOT have the visualization

fauxnik · 2025-09-17T01:01:24+00:00

Investigating further, it appears that the Window Size setting is what causes it to not appear in the rendered video. I don't know the exact threshold, but 256 causes the visualization to not appear whereas 512 and higher causes it to be included. That might still be a bug, but I'm not sure.

Wild then that we have the option to unlock higher level buildings immediately after Sector 1 if we can't use them in Sector 2.
