Woah An Otter - VRChat Avatar Base

Added 2024-02-16 02:49:30 +0000 UTC

Heads up

1.2.0 is a big update! Please backup your avatar projects per update!
- If things don't work properly when importing newer packages into older projects, try a blank project before reporting something as a bug in the Discord channel.
This avatar uses Unity 2022.3.6f1 now!
The latest version VRCFury is required for optimization purposes
Using Blender to customize your avatar with the custom helper panel is HIGHLY recommended!

If you're having troubles though, you can join my discord channel and ask for help in the Woah An Otter section =)

✅ Is this avatar Quest/ Android compatible?

Yes but it's not "Quest/ Android friendly". It has a safety rating of poor at the moment. I do plan on remaking the meshes of the Quest/ Android variant in the future, but that will take a while and I need to work on other things.

👚 What about the clothing? Are there any?

Yep! And I plan to make a lot more when I can! Though, they won't be Quest/ Android compatible given the hardware limitations of the standalone version of VRChat.

✨ Is it VTubing ready?

Yes. It's as easy as using an add-on on Blender to export a VRM file! Though, if you want clothing on it or custom shaders and toggles, you need to make your own UniVRM project in Unity. You can use the VRM file created in Blender as a starter. I'll eventually make an Unity add-on to make attaching clothing to a VTubing avatar (already have one but it's out-of-date).

✨ Will there be support for Chillout-VR?

I hope so, but it's far from my priority. So don't count on it from me. I still need to learn how CVR deals with avatar customization.

📖 Can I study this base and use parts for myself?

Yea! If ya want to study how I did something (including the add-ons I made), you're free to explore around! Just know that they might not have used the most optimal solutions to work (the code specifically). But yea, I don't mind as long as I am credited. Just don't go selling the individual parts (See Terms & Conditions).

🔧 I don't want to use the helper addons/ I want to do things myself! Do I need to use them?

Nope! While this avatar was made with beginners in mind, you can delete the helper panels. In Blender, There's an option to detach the model from the panel and even delete the add-on panel entirely once you've generated an avatar! Just know that once you delete the panel, you have to download a fresh Blender file of the avatar to use it again. In Unity, the helper is not needed if you know what you're doing. You can delete it entirely.
