Got a weird issue right off the bat. I clicked the link in your description to Blender 3.0 and I click download, but the link redirects to a download for the latest version of Blender, currently 4.1.1. I can't find out how to actually get 3.0.
EDIT: found it.
Once you click Download on the Blender 3.0 page, and it redirects you to the download for 4.1.1, instead of clicking to download it, looks just below that, where it says in small, greyed out letters "Looking for Blender LTS or a Previous Version?" then click the "Previous Version" link.
Then, on the new page that pops up, click "Download Any Blender", which will take you to a repository. Locate 3.0 in there, click it, and you're good to go.
Leaving the steps here in case future viewers have a similar issue. The small, grey links that lead to the older versions were nearly invisible on my monitor.
So happy you're back!
Oh thank you soooo much!! 💗This tutorial (and your videos in general) helped me the most

im having trouble with the cats plug in im not seeing what she is seeing i dont get it
Hello im trying to donwload the 3.0 but it keeps directing me to the newest realease. Does it have to be that specific one for vrchat avatars or is it ok? Im so confused by blenders links
Love the vids, thanks! then I came across your Akii Jeans. can I ask the triangle count on them?
Hey girl, question, regarding the shape keys, im making a male avi and one of his shape keys is to have a thicker body. If I was to turn that up to 1, would that basically mean that my avi would be thicker by default? Also, I notice that if I have a skybox image in the scene, it always disappears once I click "fix model" and I can never get it back. Do you by any chance know why that may be or how to fix it? Im just left with this green background
i need help fixing my emotes material, i tried following the steps you did to fix the lashes but i dont have a alpha texture for it i only have mask for my emotes and global mask
already ran into an issue! i cant seem to get the cats plug in on the side like yours is! i followed the exact intrustions but still wont show
there is a very very small arrow on the side bar, u cant barely see, if you press it, the side bar shows up :D
I got stuck on finding a base for my avatar. I'm looking for a simple male base. Anyone got any suggestions on where to look?
For everyone, only use the development version of the cats plugin and dont use any blender version which is above 3.6! Otherwise the cats plugin wont work anymore!
idek where to find a base to start with.. how come everyones not telling us how to get itt
How to fix zoom in issue?
Welcome back!! ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
Thank you so much!!!
Can't even find out how to download blender 3.0 every time I have tried it just takes me to "Index of /release/Blender3.0/" and I really have no clue what to click and what to download, I'm stuck.
I left off here: 1:19 (I accidentally broke my laptop in rage when trying to do this for the first time, so I'll continue when it gets fixed)
i installed it n allat but it isnt showing on the side bar (found it i had to enable sidebar)
how i do this i have same thing
i keep getting an error when i try to turn the plugin on and idk why 💔💔im a tad dumb so if you could help that'd be amazing
NVM IM HELLA STUPID IGNORE THIS COMMENT IM GONNA CRYY
@@aVampiresBite NO CAUSE I HAVE THAT TOO HELP ME
@@DianaSlade USE ANY VERSION OF BLENDER BEFORE 3.0!! THE NEW ONE BROKE THE PLUGIN
@@aVampiresBite ohhh ok TY :')
@@aVampiresBite It won't let me download older versions 😭
I'm still a bit confused on how to get a model to import T^T
same. like is the only way to import a model to pay money for a model base...
Imagine knowing that you will struggle with blender eventually. Work up the nerve to finally learn and then click on this video just to get stuck on the first few steps. my cats file doesnt work for some reason, and ofc no one has the same problem in the comments. Then get asked if the file is unzipped, but i never unzipped it. THEN i gotta figure out some out of pocket bs to fix the probably most simplest of problems
you used to make MMD models huh? I never see that organization unless im watching an MMD artist xD or vet-MMD artist lol
whenever ive tried checking off the "3D view: cats blender plugin" i get a error, this happened last time i tried which is why i just gave up. any idea how to fix it?
(nvm i was using a newer version on blender omg)
igot a virus instantly from clicki8ng the cats link >:[
