Had the same problem, followed everything step by step, didnt add any vrc. viseme and my lipsync didnt work. Deleted all the animations and it still didnt work - after hours of trial and error i found out that this somehow broke the fx and i had to redo all my toggles
If you have an issue where: 1. Only one hand works with animations or 2. Once your face is on one animation, it doesn't revert back to idle Here's how I fixed them: 1. Set idle on left hand only 2. On right hand, idle is "none" 3. Every animation across both hands MUST have "Write Defaults" checked (including idle) I don't know why this works, but it does for me. If you have an issue where no animation is playing on either hand, make sure (ON YOUR MAIN AVATAR) that under "Animator" -> "Controller", "None" is selected. We want to set the controller for the test avatar only. For the real avatar, we set the Fx controller under the playable layers. Hope this helps people. The above stuff took me literal hours to figure out.
I use to make avatars a couple years ago for vrchat, ive recently returned and blender/unity being updated had to relearn from scratch how to do everything. Your videos have been a life saver. Thank you very much for posting.
just wanted to say, your tutorials have hugely helped me modify my vroid - lots of others i've found either blaze through with a "well if it didn't work lol sucks for you" or just plain obnoxious. You're also the type of creator i want to be when i grow up lol. keep up the good work! good luck and keep safe out there.
Your tutorials are fantastic! They're so easy to follow, and you explain things so clearly. I really appreciate you making these videos, and I hope you are able to make more!
I swear I have been looking for a tutorial that worked for me for months including your older one. I love you! It worked and I can finally use expressions! You-re The absolute best!
Is there any way to have half presses / half gestures? I usually have avatars that let me halfway use a gesture, so its inbetween normal and the new gesture. For example, I'd halfway press a fist to get my eyes squinted a bit with a closed eye gesture.
Very cool tutorial this worked! However... 1. Even without the vrc.v visemes not added my lip syncs aren't working yet. 2. When adding the same expressions to the other hand, it completely stops working (I had to remove the expressions off both hands and re-add it to the left hand only and add the proxy animations back on the right hand for it to work)
The Control Panel just decided to completely disappear right when I wanted to upload the avatar, and I have no god damn clue how to fix it I closed the program over night so I could upload it today, and at that time it was there but when I opened the program today to upload it, the button just fuckin vanished. The only button there is Utilities under the VRChat SDK tab
I have a question. Does clicking the body and messing with the face shapes and clicking the red record button another way of making facial expressions?
if i make an animation that affects JUST the mouth and eyes i want, then the other default positons turn into this stupid crouch thing that goes under the floor. I JUST want to change my default mouth and eyes, but unity fills in the blanks with a bunch of bullshit. i have to select 'none' and go with the default animations for everything, and my mouth and eyes arent what i want them to be by default.
I really don't get what I'm doing wrong. I've gone through 3 tutorials all yelling the same thing at me over and over, and I've checked *every* time. Okay so from start to finish what I've done: 0. Animated my expressions, exactly how you've shown. 1. Duplicated the Hands layer 2. Named it "FX" and put it in the Assets folder for easy access. 3. In the FX animator controller, I replaced the animations I needed to replace with my own ones. 4. Put the FX animator controller into the FX slot in the "Playable Layers" category on the Avatar Descriptor. 5. Offline tested my avatar on desktop, using Shift + F1 - F8, no luck. Edit: *Resolved*
Is there a way to just get new blend shapes into Unity? Like, maybe a month from now I decide I want another expression, I make the shape key in blender and then...how do I put it into unity? Or do I have to start over...
You should be able to just overwrite the existing FBX with the new one, don't do it through Unity though but find your project folder in Windows and drag and drop the new FBX in overwriting the old one.
@@Aggrotard Hello, I done just that and body of my model basically exploded in vrchat (looks normal in unity) (I just added couple of shape keys). Do you know what could have caused that? Cheers.

YOU ARE GOD TO ME, I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH.

Man if you only released it a bit sooner, good thing one of my friends had this issue already. Thanks for taking your time to fix this tho.
Awesome Tutorial!
Also that edit at 6:10 was beautiful, made me focus on it going into the rest of the tutorial, great editing
why is my inspector tab completely blank on Fist, Open,Point,peace, rocknroll, gun and thumbs up but i can see it and eddit it on idle?????
Had the same problem, but fixed it thanks to this one czcams.com/video/IoaMKgGiAVY/video.html
@@SleepyAnanas Thank you so much!!! :D
@@benedictebg2748 No problem! ^^
"never ever ever ever ever, EVER". I died laughing after that
i would wanna see how to make custom hand gestures because cant find a tutorial about that
Is there any way to have half presses / half gestures? I usually have avatars that let me halfway use a gesture, so its inbetween normal and the new gesture. For example, I'd halfway press a fist to get my eyes squinted a bit with a closed eye gesture.
Genuine question: Will you be posting a video about how to upload the avatar for quest?
No this channel is dead along with their discord.

Yeah I need help with lip sync also
@@Milwalkie same thing happens if i make the expressions into a toggle
would any of this have changed due to the new creature companion? at the very beginning i cant seem to find the hands layer for the controlllers
Can you please do a tutorial on how to put ur blender model on the bottom corner like yours

When I add blendshapes into the project they just dissapear off the list and dont go into the property Area For Animation

I have a problem I followed all the steps of the video but when I speak in VR my mouth does not move
how so i make it like my avatar has a hoodie and then to remove it from the expressions bar??
xD ty so much
If I create a smiling expression and assign it to Idle, will that be the default expression? If so, would it need to be assigned to both hands?
hey so um i was trying to duplicate the handslayer and it wont work. do u know why?
Do you download the animations if so where do you download them at
VRCMods.com has some good ones
How to you make a blendshape to change the eyes like that at 10:37 ?
Can I get some help in unity 2019.4.29f1, in animator inspector, cuz its not showing on the right side. at this part 14:30
this might help czcams.com/video/IoaMKgGiAVY/video.html
I was looking through propertys in the animation tab and all the blend files are in Japanese
There's a button in Cats to Translate All
@@Aggrotard Thanks, after fixing my textures that wouldnt load in unity everything works now
Is there a reason we can’t make the animation using the model we plan to upload?
It might break the model and youll end up t-posing or sink to the floor
I'm really curious about how to made the Lewd Expression ;)
Did the old video have a problem? I used the other video this entire week to make expressions for my avatar
I just added in the part about not adding in the vrc.v visemes to your expression animations, other than that its the same video
@@Aggrotard okay, thank you
