No cus thank you so much for this 😭 I'm currently teaching myself substance and unity and uploading and this tutorial helped me realize the mistakes I've made and it's so clear and concise and easy to follow, it is EXACTLY what I needed. I was so frustrated earlier cus I was asking friends but I couldn't understand what they were telling me and finding your tutorial made all my frustration go away.
I'm so glad I could help you! I hope my other videos can help you along your unity adventure ^-^
Thanks for this video! I have watched others that are way more confusing this helps out alot!
thanks for your straightforward video, actually helped :)
I had so much trouble while watching other videos I’m so glad this way worked, I can’t thank you enough I’ve been trying to make it work for the past 6 hours.

Audio level is prefectly fine for me. I’m currently listening on my iPhone 11
tysm
thank u so much
Happy to help ^-^
Between this video and asking around in a Discord channel, uploading an avatar doesn't feel anywhere near as daunting as it did the first time I looked into it. Especially when it came to avatars that had a lot of extra stuff needed to work properly and fully. So, yeah, ya gotta like from me and a major thanks for having a clear step-by-step process. Just turn-up your mic next time, okay? Haha..
Great Tutorial, thank you so much!!!
Will they automatically work for PC and Quest or do we also have to upload a Quest Version?
Quest is a separate beast, but I have a full 2nd video on that if you are interested!
@@PxINKY Thank you!
My brain feels like its size increased
It'll keep growing the more you learn >:)
Good luck with your adventure!
holy moly macaroly tysm this video was a big boy help
Good video. Your voice was really low but it could be just me. :} good job
yeah i have yet to get my audio set correctly. constant fighting with it
Thanks! It's so weird that it's like a thousand steps to import an avatar.
4:04 when I get to this step I get a error, claiming can’t find package manager local server application, I’m just trying to use a avatar someone I follow on social media uploaded to MEGA, i don’t even know if this tutorial is going to help with this
Interesting, mind expanding more on the issue if its not already solved?
I keep recieving a lot of Download failed: Validation Failed from the Download Archive and idk how to fix it
Not sure if i already asked you this but where do you get the Nardo/Rex models? 😅
Its actually called the rezuium made by Hirozu! a link to it can be found in the description ^-^
do we still use unity 2019.4.31 in (02/04/23)? or has Vrchat updated to a new version like the 2022.3. 6f1 - or does it even matter that much?
Ill always suggest using 2022.3.6 as its the newest!
It comes with some useful features as well
What if you don't have a unity thing for the avatar you want to make, a good example (and also my case): it's a avatar you made from vroid. Would you need the vrm instead or is there a way to get it straight from the unity hub?
There are a few videos for Vroid to VRChat out there, I would try those
This tutorial is more for avatars made for VRChat out of the box
@@PxINKY Ok, I was just going through this video before I went through the video where you talked about making the avatar quest compatible so that's why I was asking.
I can’t get Creator Companion to install Unity. Even I already installed Unity Hub. And it installed Unity 2022.3.22f1.
But it stays on “Installing for over 2+ hours!!!!
Am I doing something wrong?
with every avatar I try to upload I always run into problems, I followed this video step by step and I didn't get the unity icon in cc. Is it just free avatars are terrible to upload or something?
Depending on the model it could be many things, make sure that if you are importing the model, that you deselect anything you already imported
Some creators export poiyomi with their model (which is extremely bad etiquette), and this can cause such errors
If you need more hands on help, drop by my discord!
The turtirial was helpful but im having a issue when I click the Build & Publish it greys out and it says building avatar, Im not sure how long it usually takes but it seems to get awfully longer than usual.
any errors in the console?
I followed all of these steps and i have uploaded an avi before but when i go to builder it says i need an vrc avatar descriptor but when i go to add the component it isnt there
Try out my newer tutorial, As for that I could suggest you either selected the FBX or prefab that wasn't set up properly instead of the scene
I keep getting stuck at adding my unity editor to creator companion, it just says “version already exists.”
What if you can log into unity, using the website- but not the program?
im having errors when install the 2019.4.23 thingy on unity how do i fix them?
I’ve downloaded poiyomi but I don’t see an option to import it nor does it show up as a Unity file. I downloaded it after I imported the avatar
Set "shadererror" to "poiyomi toon"
why cant i uploade pc ones only quest?
4:34 the "control panel" option just isn't present. I have the utilities dropdown, but nothing else is there
They may have moved it around since the last few updates, just check around that top tabs general area
How do I properly install the SDK?
Everytime I upload an avatar to VRchat is says it’s pc only, yet I do use the quest pack, it there any way to fix that?
you must make sure your pipeline is set to quest. a "quest" version only means it ready for it, you have to actually upload it to the quest side
Picture it like 2 completely different games, you must upload the quest one and pc one separately
lol cute lil' model
Be nice if it let me use the File of the Edited FBX, but I can't find it's location with the stupid creator companion no matter what I do.
I did all the stepts and when I open a new project from CC, it doesnt show Vrchat SDK in my unity open program. Would you be able to tell me why?
VRChat just updated there unity version from 2019 to 2022! so i will be remaking this series (for a 3rd time XD)
@@PxINKY omg hahahaha I am so sorry for you, thanks for answering tho. Which version of the 2022 should I download?
I uploaded my second avatar without textures and was wondering how to take it out of my VRchat upload list.
You can use VRChat.com -> Avatars -> [select avatar you want removed] -> "Delete Avatar"
Alternatively you can go to VRCSDK in unity, select your uploaded tab, and hit "delete avatar"
it keeps saying "unity editor not found"
Same. Did u find a solution
i imported a avatar into unity and opened the sdk menu but it doesnt like let me build & publish or test or anything. it still just says A VRCAvatarDescriptor is required to build and avatar
Did you open the avatars scene that the creator included?
@@PxINKY yes
question im just starting someone gave me a unity package for an avi do I need poiyomi shaders?
well first process would be to make sure that you got it legitly
dont use paid models if you didnt pay for them
After that read the instructions that came with the model you paid for
@@PxINKY I got the unity package from the creator of the avatar base package
i need help with every time i open creator companion and create a project if give me a error saying {"isValid":false,"sanitizedName":null,"sanitizedPath":null,"error":"Project is in the same folder as the Creator Companion. Please pick a different folder."} and aother thing when i try to change my project location it keep saying no vaild path selected i hope you can help me with this
if you read the error, it tells you that you are trying to make your project in the creator companion folder (which is a big no-no)
Choose a file location to save your unity projects to like "Documents" or "desktop/unity"
@@PxINKY the thing is when i try to pick a new folder it just pop up "no valid path selected even though i picked one" that what's throwing me off because nothing happen
Go into your VCC and edit your default path for projects under "Project Location" when you hit "Create New Project"
my skin is not a unitypackage is there any way to still make it work?
There is but itll require more work to set up. Refer to the vrchat docs
I know this was 1 year ago, but I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. It doesn’t show Vr chat at the top when I get into the avatar model editor.
Follow my newer tutorial! Its more up to date
for sum reason when i downloaded the creator companion, it says i dont a file for it when i downloaded the 2019, any help on that?
try pointing it to the path of the unity folder (2019)
Also try my updated tutorial for unity 2022!
@@PxINKY ok
Do you know if I could use a VRM model Instead of a unity model?
You can convert them into unity, but it requires a little more work. There are some good videos on how to do it! search "VRM to VRChat unity"
Im really nice to all this like i have no history in this sort of thing so im not trying to sound dumb but how do packages get fixed when there's an error on them please help! :((
"most" errors will explain in the debug text whats wrong
if it looks like "blah/blah/atblah/blah" it could be an error with that exact script or object (reading the error will show what exactly is having issues)
If its generic / doesnt state any name / object / position, it could be an error from broken scripts or outdated SDK / Unity (fixed via VCC)
A lot of bug / error fixing is trial and error, feel free to back the project up and try stuff until it works! Also helps with learning in the process!
Im getting a weird thing whare it wont work less i use the 2022 version.
Check out my updated tutorial then!
Hey this was super useful! But im having a problem with opening the project because it wont let me open it with the 2019 version (and i made sure to download the right version)
Edit: So i wasnt patient enough and it did end up working. i was just a little confused lol
how did you get it to work i have the same issue?
@@tabitha850 I forgot it's been a while since I've tried it
When I hit upload to windows it keeps creating more prefabs?? what should I do?
This is most likely due to an error within your avatar, make sure you followed any provided instructions by the creator
if there are none, check your console for errors
i don't know if it's because the version or anything but anytime i open unity it doesn't say "VRChat SDK"
czcams.com/video/GmpWTrzz1n0/video.html
My unity doesnt have the VRChat SDK tab at the top!? Helpppppo
Did you import it? Try closing and reopening your project!
how do I fix (packages\com.vrchat.core.vpm-resolver\editor
esolver
esolver.cs(192,47): error cs0117: 'client' does not contain a definition for 'resolve') I keep getting this with every new project I make with the Companion app :/
VRChat just updated their unity version from 2019 to 2022! so i will be remaking this series (for a 3rd time XD)
how do you disable and delete in the hierarchy with your mouse ?
Disable: click the square to hide / disable it
Delete: I select the object and hit "DEL" key on the keyboard
Many thnks @@PxINKY
I'm getting a VRCAvatar descriptor is required to build an avatar
Does your avatar have a vrc descriptor on it
where tf im about to get the unitypackage from? i want my own vrm to vrchat..😭
Vrm is completely different from vrchat, vrm is for vtubing. Not for vrchat
execution.bat command prompt? That's a pretty malicious thing to give anything access to, if it is not trusted. Is there a version in the Unity Download Archives that doesn't require giving something like that access to?
I would suggest informing yourself on what a batch file is
Execution.bat just runs an exe file within cmd. Its also written in whitetext, so you can literally open it with notepad and read the code...
You need to run exe files to download stuff
could anyone help me whenever I import the vrchat sdk it keeps telling me that it could not update and will not work.
VRChat just updated their unity version from 2019 to 2022! so i will be remaking this series (for a 3rd time XD)
In my unity i dont have the VRchat tabs on the top toolbar.
Did you import the VCC / VRChat sdk properly?
Whenever I press open project on creator companion it doesn’t open
Try using Task Manager to full close CC and then try again
Current User does not have permissions to build avatars (how do I get?)
you need to become "new user" rank in VRChat!
To do this either:
> Play ~10 hours of VRChat
> Pay 10$ for VRChat plus for 1 month
Well I'm installing rn but idk if this is for avatars you can just download from the internet, like I didn't make them I just downloaded their files for free ig i'll see
If they are VRChat ready ✅
If its just an FBX, youll need to put in a lot more work!
what do i do if it wont open the project?
check your errors / logs within VCC, it may tell you whats wrong
bro editor application is taking so long to dowloadits been 20 min and stillnot done
yoooo i need help if you can 😭 when i go to open my projects, it brings me to notepad and i dont know how to get it to open unity. im just trying to figure out how to upload avatars and failing miserably 😭😭
your video has helped a lot tho so props to you for dumbing it down for a dumb person like me LOL
"Choose default apps by file type"
Search that in windows search and then go to the .unitypackage type and change it to unity!
ahh that didnt work but i fixed it by deleting the option to open the thingy thing it kept opening and put in the correct path
thank you though!
What is poyimi? Do we need poyomi do download the avatar we want?
Poiyomi is a shader, its one of the most commonly used / supported shader for PC
Its completely free, with a paid tier for some other misc stuff
Overall its widely used by the avatar creation community, and though not necessary, it'll help your avatar look more colorful
For some reason the sdk is not there i did everything tou did
VRChat just updated their unity version from 2019 to 2022! so i will be remaking this series (for a 3rd time XD)
The 2019.4.31 doesn't work anymore, creator companion told me it's not supported and it had me install the latest
i have an updated tutorial :3
btw guys u need unity 2022 now
For what. Like for the archive stuff for unity like or the unity hub
It’s not working when I add my files idk if it my files but they are the right everything
Are you looking in "packages" and not "assets"
It wants me to install the visual studio community 2022 - 17.9.6 Do I just install it or ignore it entirely? Please help me figure it out Sorry, I should have mentioned it. Also, give me something additional that doesn't seem right, that wasn't in the video. That's why I got confused.
if it wants you to get visual studio then do, its a dependancy for VCC/Unity
@@PxINKY OK, thanks. I can get confused easily. So sometimes it's hard to tell what I should and shouldn't do.
The latest version of poiyomi is 9.0.57 should I go for that?
Yes
Thank you so much for the support
Why I can't download 31.4.2019 for android, I just use a version 29.4.2019 for android can you help me
i tried a several times and i have watched video but still i can't download
does the "unity hub" button not work for you?
@@PxINKY When I go to the installation section in unity hub, I find a version 31.4.2019, but I can't see "add modules"
So when i try to upload it, it says other stuff and not the thing in the video. I need help
what does it say?
I forgor woops. It just won't exactly load that's all
Hey, so, my projects don’t want to open in the creator companion
Try closing it with task manager and retrying
@@PxINKY now unity is telling me something about a license?
I got a zip file for unity fur shader from github but there's no unity file the avi creator said to use it but idk how
Depending on how its setup, you could drag the whole exported / unzipped file into your project
@@PxINKY I figured that out eventually lol took ages thanks your whole video saved me hours of research
why does it say "Pika NSFW" at 3:15 under the blurred section/project, please tell me you didn't lewd Pikachu.
It was a commission for a user named "pika" i blurred it as i want to keep my content as user friendly as possible.
Unfortunatly im dogshit at editing 😔
I click open project and all it does is focus unity hub and that’s it nothing opens or anything
id suggest my newest one, this could also be due to an incorrect installation! check if it properly installed everything!
@@PxINKY thanks i got it working after watching your newer vid
Every time I try to upload my avatar it gets stuck on building avatar, why is that?
There could be a few issues, does anything show up in the console when you attempt to upload?
Guess it got updated to be 2022.3.6f1 because it was not accepting the other one
Yeah, id suggest updating
2022 is nicer too with some nice QOL features
Deez nutz
ily yeet
❤️
I can’t access my assets to my avi but it’s telling me it’s downloading it to unity
odd, mind explaining in a little more detail, or possible dropping by my discord?
I don’t habe the „show control panel „
Close and re-open it.
What about free avatars as practice?
vrcmods.com/ has a ton of free models!
Alternitively gumroad also has some free models! you just need to adjust your filters
so what if i dont see Vrchat SDK?
Close the unity project and reopen it, wait a little
sometimes scripts aren't fully loaded / need to be reloaded
so when i uploaded the avatar in unity i could not find it the model
Did you try restarting VRChat? and did you make sure you didn't get any errors?
@@PxINKY yea ty
Vr chat creator companion making me upgrade to the 2022 version, anyone else?
Thats a good thing, id recomend using thr newest versions of all your tools
ugh this is so annoying, i pay for an avi and i cant even upload it because errors keep popping up when i press build and upload, so depressing
Try reading the errors! They will tell you whats wrong
Also im 99% sure that as long as you read the instructions you will have no issues uploading the avatar you purchased
Next time just put the volume decently loud as possible, because us as a viewer we can always turn in down, plz n ty, your volume is so low sadly.
Noted, thank you!
i sitll dont understand what it is im trying to do.
That indeed could be an issue. Are you trying to upload an avatar? Because thats what this video is about
my avatar when i import it into the project just goes purple
That means you have a shader error, you need to change the shader from "shadererror" to "poiyomi version.x"
