[1931] Avatar disappears/invisible while calibrating.
available in future release
RuneFox237
repro steps:
- While in VR w/ FBT, open menu and hit the Calibrate button
- Notice that avatar is invisible/unloaded while in calibration state.
- Avatar returns when calibration is completed.
I tested with many different avatars and they all exhibit this behavior when calibrating.
My best guess is that this is likely a side effect of the nameplate height fix in this update as that seems to be one of the only avatar specific changes this update and it states that an avatar will remain hidden until initialized and tracking.

I've been having the same issue too, I hope they get a patch out for this soon. I forget that I'm on the beta release sometimes. I was wondering why some people had the issue while others didn't.

There is a second part to this bug which also causes the trackers to appear only after calibration (while being invisible during calibration) when using System for FBT Tracker Model, and when starting the game with trackers already on (probably). They seem to be strongly influenced by reflection probes, appearing almost silver instead of black and don't go away on rejoin, re-calibrate, menu open+close or new instance. I can't reproduce it consistently but it requires a game restart to fix.

kai-chan ։3 This sounds like a separate issue. Please open a new Canny report with steps to reproduce the issue if you're still encountering it once the fix for this issue is available on the open beta.

was just wondering if i had messed something up with my vrc again
"...an avatar will remain hidden until initialized and tracking."
i guess that "and" was very literal in the coding lmao

I'm very confused as to why this happens.. sometimes my trackers slide around and I need to see where the legs/chest are so I can calibrate correctly.. I'm also in the beta. Is this beta exclusive??
Yukunᴏ
Endrance yes this is only happening on the beta.
Tips
Same here, started a few days ago, with 100% consistency i can no longer see my own avatar while calibrating.
I am also on the Beta branch
