Bug Reports

When the camera is used in selfie mode, the captured image is saved with the left and right sides reversed. (When the camera is pointed at you by changing the lens orientation in the upper left corner) Normally, the avatar in the attached image has a yellow left eye, but it is inverted and has a right eye.

While holding the camera in a moving station (The faster the more apparent), some form of camera stuttering begins to occur as if the camera's position lags behind every few frames. Letting go of the camera fixes this issue, but anytime grabbing and holding the camera, it starts again. Worlds with fast moving vehicles such as 'Test Pilots' are the most noticeable locations to see this happen. This issue may have popped up sometime between early October 2024 and late December of 2024. I have only been able to test on PCVR.

Currently, there are avatars that cannot be used with the message “The secuirty check on this avatar failed and it cannot be selected”, and these avatars cannot be selected as well as changed. On the other hand, since the avatar must be selected in order to “unfavorite”, it is not possible to “unfavorite” an avatar that has caused these errors. Can you make it possible to unfavorite without selecting it, or can you just make it not available and allow menu operations?

Starting with the 28th of March, I'm receiving very frequent reports of users that YouTube videos fail to load in my world. After some testing I concluded that it's other worlds too. To quantify this problem I ran some data and visualized it. Since the 28th, the Error rate of videos in my world increased to around 20%, meaning every 5th video fails to load. This also exactly lines up with when VRChat had the yt-dlp resolver updated for the last time.

Forced Camera Near Distance setting isn't always applying directly. changing it from forced to anything isn't applying the setting. Go to a world, ex: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_38646e89-6117-48a9-aab9-aea64c1cd629 Look at the skybox change Forced Camera Near Distance to Forced (if it isn't yet) change Forced Camera Near Distance to anything else I would expect to see the skybox but it's just black. Rejoining fixes it.

Change into avatar, 2. Kill all PC users with unity error. I wish I had more info but I don't, it's happened to 3 people I know including myself, just change into an older (not recently updated) avatar, wait for it to initialize, and then everyone on PC just dies. ~~Only connection between the avatars is that at least 2/3 had GPU particle systems~~ (GPU particles are definitely irrelevant), re-uploading the avatar and making 0 changes to it (besides updating SDK ver and some other editor only packages, didn't think to test without changing that) fixes it, and makes it no longer a crasher. (happens to all PC players who load the avatar, regardless of version) Edit: just learned it also happens when avatar loads into menu. edit 2: learning more, likely not shader related as loading into the avatar with fallback shaders enabled still causes crash.

For the last few versions of the game and the SDK (confirmed to still exist as of SDK version 3.8.2, and game build 1664), the VRC Position and Parent Constraints behave strangely when toggling the "Freeze To World" setting with animations. When toggling the setting on, there is no abnormal behaviour, but when toggling the setting off again, the constraint's position is set to double the distance moved since the setting was last enabled, before correcting itself almost immediately, and moving to the source element it is constrained to. This is not too much of an issue for the local user, but if the incorrect movement of the constraint is moved outside of the field of view of a remote player, its position will not be corrected until they look at the position it was incorrectly moved to first. To give a specific example, since the issue is somewhat hard to describe, the core of my issue is that the entire mesh of my avatar is dependent on the position of a VRC Position Constraint. Say that I begin at the world origin, with "Freeze To World" enabled, and I walk 10m away from the world origin. When I disable the "Freeze To World" setting, my avatar will briefly appear as though it teleports 10m away from me in the same direction I had just moved (and therefore 20m from the world origin), before almost instantly teleporting back to my actual position (where the source element it is constrained to is located). However, if a remote player is looking at me, facing the world origin (and therefore facing away from where it is incorrectly displaced to), they will report that my avatar has disappeared. The avatar will stay invisible to them until they look at where the constraint was incorrectly displaced to, at which point they will report that my avatar is back where it should be. I assume this issue is caused by the position of constraints not being updated when they are not in view, but I have found no workaround to this issue which prevents the incorrect displacement. Thank you for your time, and let me know if you need any more information!

Clicking off and back onto the same avatar without changing the upload can sporadically change the size, which seems like a client side issue. This applies to both personally uploaded avatars, as well as avatars listed onto the avatar marketplace. I've confirmed this issue does not just apply to me, as attatched is a picture someone sent of one of the listings with the avatar preview shrunk down really small, and then on my end when checking immediately after, it's fine and full size (also attached). Shortly after I let them know on my end that I couldn't reproduce it, it resolved itself on their end when they re-selected the avatar. These pictures are from the previous build, but the issue still persists on the current build. I eventually ran into the issue again when I was continuously iterating uploads to resolve other avatar preview issues mentioned in this canny ( https://feedback.vrchat.com/avatar-30/p/vrc-update-breaks-avatar-menu-preview-sizes ). It occurs whether I change into the new avatar upload or not, whether I switch avatars via the wing or not, or whether I change selections from the larger Avatar menu without switching avatars. I temporarily resolve it by restarting the VRChat client entirely, but eventually if I click off and back enough times or after enough time, it'll re-occur. Another friend of mine clicked on the listing as I even write this canny, and reported the avatar preview is the smallest it's ever been. After restarting the client, it returns to its larger size.

When I enable the "selfie expression" option, my screen freezes for a few minutes, then an error message appears: "selfie expression disabled: incompatible webcam or in use by another application." I'm using my PC webcam and I don't have any applications running in the background.
