or we could take a page out of Snow Crash and put everything on one big street

this is a stupid analogy that I'm kind of ashamed to make but I'm envisioning how Wreck it Ralph 2 has that transit-hub-like visualization for people and their internet traffic.

going from World A to World B and see all the people along the way could be awesome... but no ads please lol

I prefer to be super precise for my loops around joints but for less intensely deforming areas, it's the overall shape/vibe/character that matters more than precision.

Yeah honestly I haven't a clue. It could be the exact feature I'm look for! But the way it's worded ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
a mystery

I guess what I don't understand about it this setting is if I'm setting this for how I appear to other people, or I'm setting it for how other people appear to me 😭

I wish it was clearer on when it goes Avatar -> Fallback -> Imposter versus Avatar - > Imposter. I have NO idea what the current pipeline looks like.

Imposters are SO awesome for the majority of players, but as an artist who spends a lot of time investing in optimization I wish I had more control!

seeing bad takes on poly count and performance

Wait, we need to make a vrchat yearbook or something. Would be the perfect home for these.

This sucks.

Got @warudo.app Collab working with @chimericcurios.bsky.social !!! (no, this is not VRChat, it's a VTuber application!)

So much potential for collaborative motion capture!

you don't need to justify doing or enjoying things that make you happy. do it for no reason. do it just because.

👀

Finally! As a primarily asset (as opposed to avatar) creator I'm super excited that there's an update out on this! 💞

Super excited to see new creators get spotlighted thanks to this feature and looking forward to an expanded beta!

Strongly recommend @madamekana.bsky.social 's work!! Please check her out :)

Thank you! Yeah I'm trying to be mindful of VR in general 🥲

I hope if it's what you so desire, your passion is reignited someday!

This has been really insightful regardless! I've been on the fence about what to do for a personal project (specifically stylistically) but I think targeting the style of the place I want to end up makes a lot of sense here 🫶 Thank youu

Floof 💯

incredible review

reminded me of being 12. my mouse broke, so I learned to use the computer with only the keyboard

couldn’t afford a new mouse

for 6 months i was browsing the internet by pressing “tab” hundreds of times

Thank you for letting me pelt you with questions 🙌🏼 and for sharing your knowledge

Last related to 3D modelling (VRChat specific, sorry):

Hidden optimization costs I should be aware of? Am familiar with not wanting copious overlapping tris, too many skinny tris, but do things like having a skinned mesh renderer with unused blendshapes still have a notable perf cost? What else?

Related to technically art and/or 3d modelling: What are some must-have skills to demonstrate in a portfolio?

Been forever freelance but have been thinking of applying to some corporate jobs and want to formalize my portfolio a bit.

Question for an artist wanting to get into shaders (specific to VRChat); good project ideas for beginners?

I see lots of great tutorials on how to make things but I am bad at assessing what a good "beginner shader project" would be.

i gotta make a freaking list... 😅
