"Nobody would engineer a platform this way"
Me, a VRChat engineer: "And I took that personally"
me wearing a shirt that says "SICKOS" on the front, nodding maliciously and staring through a window: "Yes.. ha ha ha... YES!"
@@dtupper i'm coming over you better not be pondering your orb
Don't pretend to be 200 IQ like all the other engineers who want to be architecture astronauts. Keep being 300 IQ and let the creation fly.
@@CNLohr By the way do you think this vid went viral?
@@PSking_ nope! I'm more than happy to show some folks around!
R.I.P 1001, a legend in the community, fought hard battles. they were always willing to help anyone in need with shader questions and what not, even helped me out a few times, it's suriel to imagine they left us. an amazing creator and an amazing person, may whatever place they find themselves in now treat them well, they deserve the world and hearts of thousands.
I really wish I could have met 1001. But I never could. It makes me so sad I missed out on VRC for so long.
I am very happy to see other people writing/creating long-form video essay style content about VRChat. For me, this platform went from a curiosity, to a hobby, to a job. It's a magical place. Well done on the video!
I've watched several of your videos! I thought about that a few times when making this video.
I started playing VRC out of boredom and loneliness during the first lockdown in 2020. I had my headset ordered within 2 weeks. Since then VRC has become like 75% of my social life. I still meet with real life friends and family just as much as I used to, but now I also spend around 10~15 hours a week in VRC meeting with online friends. (or drinking with, during drinking night. :P) Everyone being free to express themselves through their avatars is just magical for social settings. And for introverts like me it's such a huge plus that I can just go to a private world or take my headset off the moment I feel like I'm getting too tired or things are just becoming too much.
This is an amazing video. Thank you so much for putting it together
Thanks - it had been such an experience, the story _had_ to be told.
"speedrun the future" well said. Great summary of vrc
I'm glad to know the avatar commission I did forever ago is still in good use. This is a super cool and informative video that I have not seen before on vrchat yet aswell.
yoooo thanks so much for that.
While I certainly miss your hardware-oriented projects/videos, I’m glad to hear you’re still doing something you enjoy :)
same
"When you're fifty, you have to speedrun the future. You can't wait for it to come to you." Epic. Well done video!!
I got goosebumps when he told me that in-game.
thats my favourite tree house. its a gift its a beutiful place.
the creator is amazing and a legend
RIP 1001
thank you so much
Watching today's popular video's on vrchat, it's so easy to forget that there is so much more out there then just what we're shown. This video brought me back down to earth hard lol, thanks for that.
Make sure people are aware of the breadth of this platform!
It makes me feel sad that I'm nowhere nearly as creative as I wish I were.
... or have enough time to sit down and figure out stuff like this.
♡
Just gotta do a liiittle "reverse-telecommuting" to get that time back :-p Not sure if y'all still use that term.
@@CNLohr never heared that term xD
this need to be available to stream on Netflix ngl,
i dont i have programing or unity background, i think this game is for people who love to create, build and play..
people with a set of skills.. not for casuals like me, even worse i cant talk to people... i have zero communication skills
.., but luckily enough i have one friend taking me to comiket event, and it blew my mind.
since then i converted my Beatsaber avatar to VRC, do full body tracking, making shorts, chilin, dancing sleeping..learning a little about unity..
still have difficulty talking to people so i dont have many friends, but that's all right, i will take my time.. actually hearing people conversations, taking cool photos, witnessing people creativity with their avatars, is such a mesmerizing experience..
all im saying i have high respect, and very grateful to everyone who contribute their feelings and passion into this game.. and that includes u..!
i hope VRC keep improving every year, and i believe the metaverse is already here.. inside this video.
Thanks! On all fronts. And I hope you continue to being able to explore this with all of your abilities (And the new ones you will acquire because of VRC)
You did an amazing job portraying a side of VRChat that is seldom mentioned. Good job Charles, I'm honored to have been mentioned in such a nice video.
you definitely earned it.
I was super happy to see you and Ostinyo's worlds in this video! Ya'll are too cool. -AliyaJade in VRC :D
I seldom finish watch a long video specially it's in English because I need to spend time to understand it, but everything of this video is really catching my eyes. I also play VRChat few years and this is the first video I never see that really described how VRChat is.
For me I met a lot a lot of people around the different countries and make friends, there are so many different ways and reason to keep people diving in it, as a street dancer in real world, we create a Dance community call "IDA" try to connecting all the vr dancers and real life dancers. Spent over two years and keep doing some dance battle, event or video project, we do get notified by VRChat, HTC vive and some famous dancers in real life, what I think is we are really doing something that will be important too, I know it is not like the shader or coding but it's in other way.
The thing how people know each other without the words, the thing that people come from different countries and stay together at the same place same time, it's VR Dance!
I felt really emotional when I saw this video, I just randomly see this on twitter and click in, there are tons of possible things going on more and more in VR and that what I really love!
Although I am not a programmer but I really wanna have a chance to add you as a friend ❤️
(If I type something wrong in English plz forgive me qq)
Thanks for the comment - what's your username? I can be on the lookout for a friend request.
so many awesome community members I recognize have found this video, just, wow.
I rarely leave any comments but this video really touched me. I've barely played any VRChat because I'm pretty introverted and simply don't know what to do when my friends aren't in the game with me.
...honestly I don't really know how to express myself right now. I just wanna say that this is probably my favourite video on the internet right now.
I'm honored.
Same here.
This reminded me of AlphaWorlds from around 1996. I thought it was fascinating but given the dialup internet and laggy 3D back then, it was clearly ahead of its time. Thank you for this great overview of something I had no idea existed!
A lot of cool stuff can happen when people have mountains of GPU power to blow.
VR Chat is mind blowing!!! Same with playing it over everything else. Nothing else comes close.
hard concur
There's so much in this video that you touched on that I'm very much emotional with because it's been an amazing experience. From just meeting up with friends and exploring art pieces to discovering dynamic activities, making reactive worlds, and setting up large social events (really an understatement), there's so much history to share that really gets overlooked from how overwhelming the readily apparent experiences can be.
As a creator it's both encouraging and intimidating at times to try to tackle even simple interactions that may feel remotely intuitive. It's thanks to other creators that I've learned from that the Marimba Bar Cafe ever came into existence. In turn, I wouldn't be in the position I am today if I hadn't poured those hours into experimenting and learning just what's there. I can say that the community you've found is one I've loved every rare minute I've had with and would love to hear more about!
Please dive into some worlds and share some stories of their development if you may! I'd be nervous for sure, but I wouldn't mind being a part of it as well if there's an opportunity.
I may try to go in deeper with some but I need a few weeks to recover XD
What a deep and dope video essay this was. Your wonderful friend Ether referred me to watch this video and upon listening to you speak; I can hear the passion in your voice, you definitely have Phia or Thrillseeker energy levels when you're talking about VRChat or the VR scene in general. Subscribed.
Thanks - I'm not sure if this sort of thing will be present in any of my other videos, but it would be fun to keep.
What an amazing video. I'm so glad this is starting to be shared. It's giving me more inspiration to keep pushing myself towards programming and developing environments. Thank you
Do it. Be the one to push the future a little more forward.
This video is really good.
After spending over 1000 hours in the past 9 months on VRChat, it's become my hobby, business, and a huge part of my life. I appreciate the time you took to explain what VRChat is for someone who's never seen it.
I subscribed a really long time ago for your tiny minecraft server, glad to see we've moved forward, together!
I don't think many of my viewers will be coming along with me for this ride, but it's a ride I'm gonna go on.
@@CNLohrAs long as you're happy with what you do, there'll be new people to replace the ones who left
Beautiful video, this absolutely captures what I love so much about VRChat and the community of friends I've made through it.
Also CN I absolutely love your Ballpit world!
Thanks!
I loved to see this video, it reminded me of the "tribe" I have found in VRChat with other creators. Those of us that have this drive and enthusiasm to create have found a home in VRChat, and I love to see that shown to the world. There are many entry points into creation and expression in this virtual medium. Thank you for this video!
Tribe is a spectacular word. I may use that in the future.
Tree House In the Shade has been my home world for loading into VRChat for well over a year now! Great vid!
Thanks. And treehouse really is amazing.
Amazing video! Thanks for putting the time in to show off one of the great communities of VRC! I’ll have to check out more of your work and some of the worlds in the video I haven’t been to! Stay rad CNLohr!
This is really well made and narrated, gets into the heart of what makes VRchat amazing for so many creative people. Great work!
Thanks! I really tried to get down to the heart of the matter.
Yo, this is a great video. I'm just now getting into the deeper levels of VRChat and had someone show me your world. Keep up the great work, I've love to see more content.
Out of the thousands of videos I've seen on youtube this is my favorite.
I've only started playing VrChat a few days ago and it has hooked me in.
My free hours from past few days that I have spent in VrChat have felt like traveling to a different world. (Once I got past the screaming children)
This video has helped me articulate why I'm so fascinated by this game.
Thank you for sharing your experience and for creating this amazing video.
I really appreciate this. Thank you for your care and love for this video and I hope you find even more amazing sights, sounds and experiences while you explore the frontier of our day.
You have convinced me to check it out again. I love surreal art experiences.
I last tried it back when it was brand new, and what I had experienced is definitely something I wanted my kids to never accidentally witness . somethings you can't unsee.
Me: "Whelp CN summed up my entire VRChat Documentary series in 25 minutes" 😂
I'm wildly impressed, this is absolutely amazing CN 💚💜
refine content, continuously. Keep producing and learning. Adjusting and exploring.
The most relatable intro to VRChat I've seen so far
Awesome Video, Just got into VRChat myself after getting my headset last month. I have been inspired by my adventures to start playing with shaders, which I am hoping to do. BTW your ball pit is awesome! I loved running around with my Kobold there!
Easily the most interesting video about VRChat I have seen. I got curious about it because it did seem like a game with so much potential, but your video was the only one in my opinion that really showed how this game can be amazing. Awesome work, interested in trying it out whenever I have the opportunity :).
Thanks!
I am so happy I got VR and really got in to VRChat. I have been to a lot of the worlds shown but your video is very eye opening. I will say that with 1001 gone its strange to know that Treehouse is a dying world and like with normal art you can always enjoy it after the person is gone but we may not have the same thing here. IDK its something I find really amazing and very sad at the same time.
That is all part of the beauty that is VRChat.
I've been working as game developer for over 8 years now and I loved the way you described shaders at the start of the video.
Treehouse in the Shade was one of the first worlds I accidently visited after getting my first VR headset and hopping into VRChat.
The work they did on that world is absolutely amazing. I brought one of my co-workers on the game JUST to show him this world.
We chilled and enjoyed every single one of the background options and we admired how much work must have gone into them and ways we would actually make the shader code ourselves if we wanted to.
I absolutely loved your video. I haven't seen another video that describes VRC the way you did.
Thank you!
Wow. I never saw myself getting emotional about a video about VRChat but here we are. Well done dude, I was curious before but this just convinced me to give this a shot.
Recommend joining the discord and having someone show you around! :)
Man such a great overview of the amazing creativity in VR chat....I have met so many incredible builders there...it's mindblowing...
This is amazing. Thanks for making this.
Really well done : )
I do love the irony: some of the captured video is from the amazing tour you gave me of the VRchat lands, where I was wearing the most stock avatar ever haha. I'm still totally blown away by how much stuff can be accomplished in the engine
You are a VRC shaman sir
It's a story that needs to be told and experienced whatever we look like when we land in that world.
This video inspires me to explore the technical and creative side of VR more. Thank you for that!
I'm glad! That was my goal!
Great video, I was aware of vrchat and even played it for a bit but only ever saw the 'weird' side of it, but now it's clear that it's way deeper than that. You got me interested in giving it another chance
It takes some searching, to get past the lobbies of screaming 12 year olds, but it is a real gem underneath. DEFINITELY Find friends to go with!
The way you describe vrchat is amazing and perfectly describes it!
Thank you!
I think this is the best summary of VRC I've seen! Very compelling and I am moved. I'm going to have to try this game out.
Please do!
Just started this expecting I would have it on in the background while I work on avatars. But 3 minutes in I can't look away, its interrupting my work! Great video!
Thanks! That was the goal!
Thanks is wonderful Charles. I'm looking forward to hearing more about VRChat and what you experience and make in it.
I do expect to make more videos but they will be much simpler. Things like how-to's.
18:31 Such a trip, I could watch that all day
Really enjoyed the video
Thanks!
Amazing video! And thank you for providing the links the description!
Thanks!
I want to say a big thank you. I'm a developer and followed your early video. I've been interested in VR. And this video finally pushed me to get a headset. VRC singlehandedly solved most of my social anxiety, the stereotypical engineer stuff. And now I me lots of awesome people, even some friends on VRChat. This is the best thing ever happened.
I'm really glad. VRChat has some amazing positive societal benefits that just don't exist with other metaverse-wannabes.
The funniest Easter Egg here for me is I was the DJ at the dance party (around 5:39) Thanks for the unintentional shout-out!
haha awesom(e/us)
great video. that last interview was truly special
I know. Tinyturtles was so inspiring.
I'd heard of VRChat, even seen some videos in it. But I had no clue what it really is. This is a great window into it.
Thanks!
certainly the most accurate video on vrchat Ive come across- this is the stuff you wanna share with your non-vrc friends, amazing amazing work man!
Share away! I did the best I could to represent it as clearly as possible.
Woo, all my shader friends getting attention! Good work!
Wth. Wasn't expecting this kind of video. It's so good! Definitely one of the only videos I would show an outsider to share what VRChat is about.
That was the goal.
This is the most inspiring and fantastic video I've ever seen on the topic of VRchat. It perfectly captivated the love I have for this game.
This game made me alot of friends, made me happier in general and technically flew me to the other side of the world to see friends I met on this game. It's really magical and no other game could've ever gave me this experiences. Sincirly thank you for this video, it's a great reinder of how truely amazing this game is ^^
I really appreciate your feelings toward my video and I'm so glad to see so many people concur with my view on the importance of VRChat in the history of VR.
@@CNLohr yeah totally and now, when avatar dymics completly revoutionized Vrchat I'm more and more excited to see what's to come in the near future!
Let’s gooo! More VR chat content please. As someone who is also a programmer and getting into the creation space I love it.
I believe I will.
this video is wonderful, everything you have said about vrchat is true. Also I've recently started getting into node shading the past few months and honestly have fallen in love with it, I hope I can get into writing them in code but I find it rather intimidating
Such a good video, a month ago a friend got me into VR and I've found this community and new way people can create art. It's truly the new best medium for art beyond physical life.
After you go past the surface level meaninglessness of Ugandan knuckles people, you'll be able to find the art of humanity, not literal art, just the beauty of individuals and the fact they are there, being themselves in the meta world.
It takes work to dig deep. But it's so worth it.
Thank you for making a wonderful and informative video about VRchat!
Thanks! It was a trip for me and I wanted to share it with all you guys.
Completely agree on all points, especially the part about shader development being fun af. I only got into making (read: customizing) my own avatar in May, recently started getting into shaders and just thinking of new ideas and possibilities coupled with the ability to show stuff to my VRC friends has made this into some of the most fun content creation I've ever embarked on.
yesssss
I keep comming back to the video, I really like the creativity and warmth shown in this video. It just feels organic and natural.
It really did just flow together as I was making it.
thank you for your awesome contribution to this platform :)
Thanks! This video was a lot of work and I'm glad people appreciate it.
i watched this video then i went to look at the likes and views and was supprised that it hadnt got more attention, this is an awesome video
The algo doesn't know what to do with it. Basically it's gotta be people sending it to their friends.
This is insanely cool video great job at it
Thanks. IT was a ton of work but I think worthwhile!
Still honored to have been a very small part of MAGFest/Poe's Nightclub project. A beautiful outcome from a lot of very motivated people.
It's weird to cross the streams socially and see people's other names.
@@CNLohr Yeah maybe I shouldn't out myself like that, but I wanted to say, I'm glad to see you've spent a year around VRC and lovin life.
Awesome video!
Hiho, Jaxen Beeper here! I'm a bit late (relatively speaking) to seeing this video, but it really perfectly encapsulates the VRChat experiences that I love so much. I've become utterly enamored with the creative side of avatar customization, and have found a re-spark in my artistic spirit that I'd felt I'd lost when it came to the 2D digital art I'd been doing essentially since Mario Paint. It's why I'm a chronic avatar swapper, and can never 100% settle on a consistent single one; I am constantly indulging my ADHD compulsions for the new, the fascinating, the gratifying, the novel by acquiring new models, customizing them, texturing them, playing with new ways to push my use of shaders. (It's actually why I changed my VRChat name from what it originally was: I was Jaxen Beaver, but changed it to Beeper -- because so many things can beep, and therefore it fits nearly any avatar!)
But not only can I express myself creatively, I can make it an actual representation of myself, as myself. *I am my creations.* And my friends are their creations. And we inhabit worlds that are our creations. I have created, explored, played, danced, socialized, and bonded more during the age of COVID than I ever did before, because of VRChat. Your video is such a spot-on representation of how this platform makes me feel, and how enriched my life has become because of it. (Other people mentioned getting emotional over this video on the comments, and I am not ashamed to admit that I also got a bit misty.)
(And as for my usher and guide, I cannot thank Allon Aurual enough for convincing me to attend Hex FurFest in late 2020 while still in Desktop Mode. Honestly life changing, as silly as that may sound.)
I'm really glad. And I'm glad I could know this part of your story (and for everyone else who reads this).
Wooow! Thank you.
I love everything about this video!! :)
Thanks! Hopefully we'll cross paths in VR again (If you're the VR Jen from the Mc Donalds). It feels crazy in VRC how you can randomly "meet" other VR famous people.
@@CNLohr That's me. :)
I had a similar experience with VRC this year. COVID has been tough, both on hobbies and my work, so having something like VRC to use nearly daily has been a great outlet both for my creativity and social needs. Glad to see other people are enjoying this experience as well.
Indeed! I've found it to be the same. I'm a bit burned out right now but I will be back!
I'm seriously blown away by this video-essay, you put into light a world and lots of concepts and things i had never thought of, thank you so much for this (and also all your amazing and mind opening projects xD), you should totally try a different title and thumbnail tho (like most popular people in CZcams do already considering how affective it seems to be), this video is just super well made and full of knowledge and experiences, it could totally blow up on CZcams.
Also, wait what, this video was 27 minutes? Time went flying while watching this, it really seemed like a 5 minutes one, good job again :D
I had considered many different titles and thumbnails, and this was the one I went with, well changing between "My" and "A" year in VRChat. Do you have any recommendations/
@@CNLohr Idk, I'm not into that part of CZcams myself, tho maybe you could try something like "The Untold World of VRChat - My Experience" or "VRChat is Way More Than You Think - My Experience" or maybe even without " - My Experience", "The Untold World of VRChat" or "VRChat is Way More Than You Think" and maybe in the thumbnail switching the "My Year In" with "1 Year", just to create a bit more mystery and curiosity. I think that could work better, tho like any good programmer:

That was a really good video! Cheers!
Thanks!
"SCRN doesn't have the map files." Time for some reverse engineering then.
Just asking can often help. But otherwise I agree xD
funny you say this, some people in shader discord are working on it now
Thank you for this video, it was very emotional and super nice to watch!
You made me want to work on Avatars, words and shader again! I will start from scratch with shaders and I hope to be able to meet you one day!
Have a merry Christmas and see you on the other side soon!
Thanks! And I hope to meet you as well. Charge forward. Dig in. It's a wild world in there.
Blessed to see everything coming together, was neat to see so many friends in one vid haha
I always viewed VR chat negativly and avoided it. But the technical stuff looks intresting. I might give it try.
The main challenge these days, is just getting past the public worlds and "finding your people" as he puts it in the video. Compared to the past, VR is now cheap and popular enough that the average mental maturity in public lobbies (especially for the most populated worlds) has plummeted. So just bear that in mind when visiting. There's an amazing and vibrant world to discover within VR-Chat, home to many truly amazing people, but many newcomers do bounce off the surface before they discover it.
@@UnknownSquid That's one of the reasons I linked my discord, and the VRC discord. It's a lot better when you can hook up with good folks and then from there find new friend groups.
This is such an amazing video.
Thanks! I appreciate it. It was a lot of work and I'm glad people like it.
What a great video and fantastic storytelling. VRChat seems to be the epitome of games with user-generated content from what I've seen. It's crazy that people have gotten themselves full-time jobs from just selling avatars. Found this from HN btw, thanks for posting it.
It really is the epitome of UGC. What is HN?
@@CNLohr Hacker News sorry, I thought you posted this on a thread there. Either you or someone else posted a comment that linked to here, I forget now.
@@gummydogs Aah gotcha. Thanks!
This waas one of the most interesting videos I watched lately
Like Share Subscribe :-p (show your support)
Well done Charles. Enjoyed that one. Will definitely have to meet up in VR Chat sometime. Cheers
amazing video!!!
thanks!
Incredible video. As someone learning graphics programming this is inspiring.
VRChat really shows what becomes possible when you start putting those pieces together.
Thank you.
This is so well put together. I am realizing that I want to go into VRChat for the wrong reasons (to explore myself). I have the ability to experience VRChat (looking at my quest with my good enough laptop) but not the will. As an outside viewer, the way in seems like a leap of faith (hopping into a public world or discord).
Again, excellent video with a strong message
It is a leap of faith. And it's one that I can't promise good results with. But the maximum positive outcome is so positive. I can only promise that it's worth the risk in case you might find what may become the most compelling experiences of your life.
So this is the thing the Zuck wants to destroy? What a fascinating video, how intrigued I am now to start exploring VRChat!
Thank you for this!
Destroy? probably not? More just that it doesn't seem like something the zucc would be interested in.
@@CNLohr I didn't phrase it correctly… By destroying I mean his ambition of rolling out the metaverse.
Metaverse seems like the commercial version of VRChat. He very well recognizes the huge potential and therefor will destroy it with his purely money driven attitude.
This video is fantastic! I've just recently gotten into VRChat, and I'm also graduating from university in just a couple days. That's it: it's time to finally learn to code shaders.
DO IT! We need more shaders!
Oof. I love this video. It made me pickup vrchat and a new vr headset. Im blown away! Im surprised ive been missing an experience like this. Ive met some interesting people and worlds. Ive yet to meet a group of friends to run with. I hope so soon!
Join my Discord server, some of us can tell you when we're dropping in.
Absolutely loved Marc Olano's class as well. Maximum respect!
He's such a legend.
man this makes the whole sword art online premise actually feasible now. All you need is a crazy psychopath to add murder functionality to the headsets
NoEuclid video that you made years ago was very interesting and is why i subscribed to your channel
I'm really glad. Expect more shader shim shammery.
I like the VR version of your cabin... Great playlist.
Thanks! I hope to be able to spend some more time on this coming soon.
yes, it's pretty cool
I was wondering when you'd make a video about VRChat...
It took me way to long to make the connection that it was you who made that awesome ball pit word that we've spent a good couple of hours in, thanks for that!
Yes. I hope to make a whole video on it!
Very gooood videoooo
just found out about this channel through your works in Shaderfes, really cool stuff!
I'm surprised you would find it that way.
As someone who has also been playing for a year, The game is great! I met some of my best friends on there. If you wanna try it out, Try it!
I'm glad to hear it :) It really is amazing sometimes what this game delivers.
Im happy i found your channel
I'm tryyyyyyying to make more content, it's just very hard to get over that hump.
非常感激你能做出这样精彩的视频让更多人看到。希望伴随着更加轻便的pancakeVR设备的普及，和全身动捕的设备廉价，VRchat会变成全世界跨种族跨语言跨国家的美好世界。真希望这一天能快点到来。
Thank you!
I tried a VRchat for few times but I bounced off. First time there was this big jerk guy, other times just screaming kids, I guess I'll give this game another try, this video really sells VRchat for engineers. (even for non software ones as am I)
Feel free to join my discord and hang when others are on. There's a #vrchat channel.
Awesome video and world CN!, also friends with tiny turtles, I'll have to ask if he would introduce me at some point.
Dude so good nice job. Its the new old Internet
It's certainly got a better chance of being the future than anyone else in that space.
