FIXES AND UPDATES: If you're doing a Quest avatar, then when you're installing Unity for the first time make sure to install the Android components (should pop up as an option that you can check when installing). If the "Extract Textures" option is grayed out for you, then make sure that you changed the Path Mode to COPY when exporting from Blender. Also if you're on Quest: If your eyes/any other parts of the avatar look messed up (pointy, deformed, larger than it should be) this is due to the QUEST shaders (as demonstrated this happens to the eye brow, eyeliner, and eyeline, which is why we apply those directly to the skin texture). To fix this for the eyes, you need to adjust the mesh in blender. I have a short video demonstrating how to do this in my Discord > avatar help channel > pinned messages. So if your eyes look weird and you want a quick easy fix, check that out here: discord.com/invite/zC7KgFpC7v For more help, join my Discord: discord.gg/zNGW6pMPZb
I CAN'T MERGE THEM WITH ATLAS always when i do this the texures are getting like you said crazy comined but then when i export out blender in unity it stays and i cant use it so i didnt merg them together and export it with more then 4 layers but now i cant use them or extrakt them so how i can fix this merg problem do i need to remake the texures in vroid and recreate all ?
@@n1co_gg check the pinned message in the last video. You need to unpack the files in blender before creating the atlas OR use an older version of the vrm add on to import the avatar (an update broke it)
A single, EMPTY unity project folder is ~2GB in size. I constantly have to delete older project files for new ones. Probably why some okay-ish computers can't run it.
Okay so I extracted the textures and the materials and I did everything that you said would make the character look normal but my character still looks insane
Big tip for other peoples that I hope some will find and be able to use. If using the Poiyomi Shader and you have a few invisible textures only from one side, remember to go into the shader settings and set "Cull" to "Off" in "Rendering". This is the option that will hide the back of some textures, but you need this back for some avatars.
I’m having a problem when uploading to vrchat. On the auto fix screen, I’m getting an error that says “spine hierarchy missing elements, please map: chest.” So far, I’ve remade my avatar twice and still it doesn’t work. Do you have any suggestions for this, because I really don’t want to lose my work. It won’t let me auto fix it and only gives me the option to “select”. EDIT: I fixed the issue. You have to go into the same menu where you mapped the jaw bone and instead find the chest (or missing element). Then, you have to click on it and find the missing bone.
Yeah, I had this problem, In blender go to edit mode and click the bones, make sure the 'Neck' bone has its parent set to 'Upper Chest', the 'Upper Chest' bone has its parent set to 'Chest', the 'Chest' bone has its parent set to 'Spine' and the 'Spine' has its parent set to 'Hips'
I was just having the same issue but then I read you fixed it! It's funny how this one little mess up and butcher this whole process. I'm just saying thank you because I would have NEVER figured out this was the problem.
I highly recommend dropping by a doppelganger world when testing avatars. It just lets you get a good look from an outside perspective to check all the nooks and crannies you might miss in a mirror :)
Wish this tutorial was a little kore helpful for new people who havent done this because im sitting here reading the comments and still have no idea how to fix my texture problem.
I'm terrified what people might do with the ability to upload two versions of an avatar that show up differently on different platforms, especially since many of those users have no way of seeing how their avatar appears on another platform.
Yeah I've thought about maybe an avatar that tells you what platform you're on. And maybe it roasts you on quest. Or in a world with 1 pc user not including yourself, you can make them go insane. Like it's a dog and it has fake eyebrows on PC but not quest. Don't even say a word. It will happen naturally if everyone has the avatar.
I've actually seen some avatars that are Quest avatars where their textures aren't quite showing up right and been told my textures aren't loading by Quest players. It's kinda funny but I do hope they fix it one day.
Doesn’t work in blender you combine the materials and becomes one mash and there’s no way to fix that tbh at least the tutorial was easy to follow but again doesn’t work
I find that holding down Alt changes the mouse cursor to an eye and allows you to move around your viewpoint. Also holding down Alt and right click-drag allows for a more fine "dolly" move in when compared to the wheel-move.
For some reason when I save an ATLAS it decides the textures need to be randomly placed all over. First time I tried she had her underwear texture duplicated on her face. Next time her hair was wrapped around her arms. Third time her eye texture ended up on her heels. But it seems I need the Atlas texture for unity to recognize it. I'm on the verge of just giving up.
im real fucking pissed cuz i ended up doing all these steps just as you did but i only made 1 thing for all the textures and shit so now im stuck with my whole avatar just being the texture for my hair and it autosaved in my blender so i have to do everything all over again
There's a fix for this in the pinned comments. An update to the VRM add-on broke it. You either have to use thr older version or unpack the files before atlasing. If your avatar textures turn to one in blender, it'll be like that in unity.
FYI, if you didn't notice, the outlines aren't there anymore for his avatar. You have to add them back with the shaders if it's supported (poyomi's shader supports it)
@@Hunter248GM When you go to select the shader, you would pick Poiyomi Outline instead of Toon. There will be a menu option in that window now for Outline that you can tweak how you want. You need Poiyomi version 8.0 at the time of this comment for this.
im kinda confused, im currently doing the material shaders and i cant find the rendering preset. if anyone knows a fix or what i did wrong its greatly appreciated
um ive tried to "Extract Textures" and it wont work. ive done the copy path thingy and its still grayed out. does anyone know something i could do or somethin im doin wrong?
honestly this is the best video i watched of this because i have no issue with what to download and told exactly what you need so thank you so much this made my day
hey panda, i was wandering if you could help me with this one thing, so when i get to the avatar discriptor i dont have a edit option anywhere, pls help
Dude it's night time and I'm just chilling, listening to lo-fi music, and following your tutorial and then the glitch sound at 2:40 made me jump. I almost let out a loud one.
I’ve been working on this for the past week, even fixed the ‘grayed out texture’ button. But when I click it and make a folder for it, it does absolutely nothing. Avatar is still gray. I don’t think I missed any steps as I’ve watched all three parts more time then I can count. Anybody know a way to fix it?
I cannot for the life of me figure out the texture issues. its so annoying. im on quest so i combined all of my materials into one. but now when im in unity trying to extract my textures it just makes me on big texture. the one from blender.
Click on the Body in the Scene, on the right side "Add Component" search for VRC Avatar Descriptor. If you followed the tutorial to a tee it should show up as an addable component, did you log into the VRChat SDK before you tried to add the component or after? (You should always log into the SDK after adding every Asset "as the first thing"). Do you have the latest SDK downloaded, everytime VRChat updates the SDK you need to redownload it so you get the newest version. Also check the console for errors to see what the problem is.
When trying to test my avatar I get a "Spine hierarchy missing elemets, please map: Chest" problem and there isn't an auto fix for it. If anybody has any advice that would be great
my textures and other stuff didnt load besides a jacket i was a white blob with a jacket on and i was making it for android or whatever and i uploaded it and its for pc only i give this 0/10 not the video this whole uploading avatars to vrchat ima just ask someone on fiverrr to make me one
First, you probably didn't export your textures from blender on "Copy" like they said Second, you have to switch to the android sdk if you wanna upload from Oculus Third, then go do that, not complain because you can't follow instructions
After I extracted my textures, it looks broken, like the way it did when I combined the materials in Blender. I don't know if I've done something wrong, just wondering why my textures aren't working.
@@ramen4297 Panda told me how to fix this issue. There's a file in his server, the avatar help channel, for an updated plugin file that'll fix this issue.
I figured out why the eyebrows look weird under the Vrchat mobile toon lit shaders @ 5:13. In blender, if you look at the mesh of the eyebrows, you'll see that there are several polygons that are completely transparent. The toon shaders in Unity ignores that and colors in the rest of the polygons. *A* way to fix it (I don't know of a *fast* way) is to edit the mesh to fit the textures. -Unfortunately, you'll have to edit the mesh *several different times*, once with every shape key (at least that's how I figured out to do it). I tried using "propogate to shapes", but that seems to break the shape keys on the eyebrows. Has anybody figured that part out?- EDIT: Okay, so to save hours of your time, don't move the vertices around. This only affects one shape key. Instead, trace around the textures using the knife tool, then delete the transparent faces on the outside. This affects every shape key.
Please help me... So far everything has been great but when I try to add the avatar descriptor it just doesn't show up and I have no idea what the hell I am doing please help I have tried everything. I cannot find a solution.
For the people still having issues extracting the textures, I changed My Blender version to 2.9.0 and it worked! Now I'm only having issues with the SDK, it says "this avatar has mipmapped textures without 'Streaming Mip Map' enabled" now, whenever I enable it, the SDK builder screen goes blanc, I've read that it has to do with the Avatar missing and Animator, but I've already fixed that, thats the very last thing for me :'(
Ive don but I dont have the left eye/ right eye option, just the ones you dont use. I tried those though but the eyeballs dont react well to using them (eyes completely inside out and de synced). Any advise?
help my avi came out green i think its because of a step in the last video where it was told that if the avatar looks weird it would fix - it turned green there and now it is on unity bruh
i followed all the steps to the T. but for some reason ive found some differences with my sdk, and when i try to open up the vrc sdk console the drop down menu only shows the option to reload sdk. no matter how many times i click reload nothing changes. ive also checked if the unity console shows any errors and it doesnt so i really dont know whats up but i cant upoad avatars because of this issue
I guess that's what I get for skipping through the first video. Chonky eyebrows. Will start again from the first vid when I've got the chance, but thanks for the vids! Other than this eyebrow thing, things have been going well so far, lol.
hello sorry but when i try to put the shaders folden in the unity it did not make me any shaders folder i must be doing something wrong but i dont know what is it can anyone help if is not too much trouble?
please help meeee - when i put my fbx file into unity, did everything he said, then when I was going to click "extract textures" it didnt let me :( can someone please help
hi Panda. So i noticed a issue with my avatars, and was wondering if you know what may cause it. i have tried both Blender, and VRM importer, and both look to be the same issue. the eyes on the avatar looks off to the corners when looking at a mirror, or camera, and i think also the layer but not fully sure on that (mixed answers from users,) Any idea what may cause this?
When I was making an avatar, underneath some of clothing was transparent instead of having the texture it does in VRoid. To fix this on PC go to your material shader and down to Render Options. Make sure Cull is set to "Off" instead of "Back". I couldn't find a solution to this using the mobile shaders.
Hey so to follow up on this for any beginners working for mobile quest avatars: if you go into edit mode in blender and select all the faces for what you want to see the backside of, you can duplicate those faces and then flip them. This will increase your poly count so only use it where you really want it visible, but it's an alternative since turning off culling isn't an option yet.
I should have looked at the comments before sending the same tip. But I'm gonna like for more visibility since I've also found this fix really useful for loose clothings and hair which needs the back texture.
3:48 Im having issues here, in your other video when i saved to the Atlas you mention how it looks there wont be how it looks in Unity, but when i make the textures folder it looks exactly how it did after saving everything to the atlas, to describe it to you the entire model stays gray but only the jacket the model has gets color and texture
I believe there's a fix for this in the pinned comment of the last video. When I say it'll look better, you gotta look at the video to see what I mean. Obviously if in blender the entire model turns gray, something wrong happened.
I found that using vrm add-on version 2.1.11 works. The newer version gives me the gray/white model as well. took me a whole day to troubleshoot this. Cheers!
0k so now I fixed that, but now when I select auto detect for the LipSync, it just detects 3 things, the rest don't even exist when I try to search them :(
I am experiancing a small issue, at 7:05 The "Add component" button. The option to pick VRC Avatar Discriptor is not showing up for me. I've been trying to fix it I even tried to redownload unity. I've tried other things but, I can't figure this out. If theres anyway to help I would greatly appreciate it!
problem my SDK just says reload SDK when i click it. attempting to reload it doesn't work and displays this error: "'Assets/VRCSDK/Plugins//VRCSDK3-Editor.dll' does not exist UnityEngine.StackTraceUtility:ExtractStackTrace () VRC.SDKBase.Editor.VRC_SdkBuilder:ReloadSDK ()" edit: I've restarted my computer and now it won't even display the SDK menu at the top.
Sup man, i got a problem with the VRC Avatar Descriptor - i can't seem to find it when i press "Add component" on my avatar. I reloaded my SDK but it still doesn't work. Any help? Thanks in Advance :)
HELP!! is someone else having problems with "Collab service is deprecated and has been replaced with PlasticSCM" error? I am having problems trying to upload the avatar to vrchat and I think that this error is the reason of it. I tried to fix it doing some research but it seems nothing its working. (sorry for the bad English, not my first language)
hi! wondering if you know why whenever i press either build & test or build & publish, it doesnt take me to the upload bage but just adds a prefab of my model in the assets instead?

hello sorry but when i try to put the shaders folden in the unity it did not make me any shaders folder i must be doing something wrong but i dont know what is it can anyone help if is not too much trouble?
please help meeee - when i put my fbx file into unity, did everything he said, then when I was going to click "extract textures" it didnt let me :( can someone please help
Thanks for the video! It’s all been working out great except for the extract textures and extract materials so can someone help me with that?
I guess you have problems with the atlas? And couldn't save any (real) textures?
vrcSDK doesn't work correctly for me, and I have been at this for 5 hours
hi Panda. So i noticed a issue with my avatars, and was wondering if you know what may cause it. i have tried both Blender, and VRM importer, and both look to be the same issue. the eyes on the avatar looks off to the corners when looking at a mirror, or camera, and i think also the layer but not fully sure on that (mixed answers from users,) Any idea what may cause this?
If you can send me a video or screenshot of the issue in Discord, I can help better
Was there ever a fix to this?
When I was making an avatar, underneath some of clothing was transparent instead of having the texture it does in VRoid. To fix this on PC go to your material shader and down to Render Options. Make sure Cull is set to "Off" instead of "Back". I couldn't find a solution to this using the mobile shaders.
Where is the material shader im having trouble finding it
OMG bless you - you fixed the exact issue I was having with my VRoid's hair!
YOU ARE A GENIUS
Hey so to follow up on this for any beginners working for mobile quest avatars: if you go into edit mode in blender and select all the faces for what you want to see the backside of, you can duplicate those faces and then flip them. This will increase your poly count so only use it where you really want it visible, but it's an alternative since turning off culling isn't an option yet.
I should have looked at the comments before sending the same tip. But I'm gonna like for more visibility since I've also found this fix really useful for loose clothings and hair which needs the back texture.
3:48 Im having issues here, in your other video when i saved to the Atlas you mention how it looks there wont be how it looks in Unity, but when i make the textures folder it looks exactly how it did after saving everything to the atlas, to describe it to you the entire model stays gray but only the jacket the model has gets color and texture
I believe there's a fix for this in the pinned comment of the last video. When I say it'll look better, you gotta look at the video to see what I mean. Obviously if in blender the entire model turns gray, something wrong happened.
I found that using vrm add-on version 2.1.11 works. The newer version gives me the gray/white model as well. took me a whole day to troubleshoot this. Cheers!
@@medcos5366 So how exactly do you get previous versions?
I'm stuck at that same step. I can't see an option to download an older add on build
When I combined all of the materials it turns into a blob of one colour have I done something wrong
Try restarting in blender. Might just be a bug
@@VirtualPandaVR I tried that but nothing
same here. :p It's just a weird skin like color.
Hit me up in Discord, can help better there
@@VirtualPandaVR ok but tomorrow
I followed every step until this point, but at the end my avatar is all grey :(
0k so now I fixed that, but now when I select auto detect for the LipSync, it just detects 3 things, the rest don't even exist when I try to search them :(
How did u fix it
I am experiancing a small issue, at 7:05 The "Add component" button. The option to pick VRC Avatar Discriptor is not showing up for me. I've been trying to fix it I even tried to redownload unity. I've tried other things but, I can't figure this out. If theres anyway to help I would greatly appreciate it!
textures wont export from blender no matter what and the eyebrows are fucking broken
problem my SDK just says reload SDK when i click it. attempting to reload it doesn't work and displays this error: "'Assets/VRCSDK/Plugins//VRCSDK3-Editor.dll' does not exist
UnityEngine.StackTraceUtility:ExtractStackTrace ()
VRC.SDKBase.Editor.VRC_SdkBuilder:ReloadSDK ()"
edit: I've restarted my computer and now it won't even display the SDK menu at the top.
same
@@moax_the_hoax brother. im will not leave you like this. i fixed it by uninstalling unity and reinstalling it.
how did I mess up the version of unity to install
my vrc avatar descriptor looks nothing like yours
unity won't download for me
same
Sup man, i got a problem with the VRC Avatar Descriptor - i can't seem to find it when i press "Add component" on my avatar.
I reloaded my SDK but it still doesn't work. Any help?
Thanks in Advance :)
just got an avatar and the download gave me 7 zip files ugh. No idea
2:26 nooooooo you can press wsad to navigate when holding the right Mose button
HELP!!
is someone else having problems with "Collab service is deprecated and has been replaced with PlasticSCM" error?
I am having problems trying to upload the avatar to vrchat and I think that this error is the reason of it.
I tried to fix it doing some research but it seems nothing its working.
(sorry for the bad English, not my first language)
hi! wondering if you know why whenever i press either build & test or build & publish, it doesnt take me to the upload bage but just adds a prefab of my model in the assets instead?
bump
If I use quest 2 on vr chat through pc do I have to make the avatar have less polygons still?
if you are using link then go off the PC count, however standalone quest is another story
@@vrcshortys152 Oh okay
My avatars eyebrows are bushy and looks weird please help
i can't find the left and right eye 💀 all i have is the l_eye and r_eye, what the heck do i do
