Open Beta

I have used this avatar for a very long time, and nothing was wrong with it until the "Drone Update" officially came out. I have tried multiple versions of the avatar as well. I have also asked friends who use the same avatar to test it, and it was always breaking. However, some people can see the bones misbehaving and some see it normally. Not sure what the issue here exactly is, but it seems like animated physbones tend to break now. Avatar ID: avtr_fabc9caa-9cdf-474e-920d-c9b54958bd9f

With a SteamVR controller that reports a full skeleton, VRC defaults to hand tracking input behavior. In the 1530 Beta with the new Quick Menu openers, the controller's binding for opening the menu acts as if it were completely disabled. VRC should still respect the SteamVR controller bindings even though there is hand tracking input. The current behavior in the beta is problematic when using gloves with physical button inputs, for example. Ideally, hand gesture controls would be disabled via in-game setting or start-up parameter, at least on SteamVR PC, where more exotic hand tracking / input solutions exist. Possibly related to this comment in the VRC open-beta-discussion channel: https://discord.com/channels/189511567539306508/449386885299830794/1299084757375651850

I tested this in Karl Kroenen's World FFCR: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_59fa7101-92fe-4a46-b1df-4746305d3f3a It also affects this world and other worlds like it: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_69f3f14b-784d-456c-b32d-73c3601a2a75 Join a world that has a far view distance (I don't know the technical term) Set your Near Distance to Forced Set it back to Off/Dynamic, observe how the "far" distance does not seem to change back to its original state Rejoin the world and the problem is fixed I don't know if this is something that VRChat can fix, but if it is possible, I would love to see it fixed. I think this will lead to problems, primarily on the world creator's side, if a rendering issue cannot be remedied by setting it back to off. The issues is most exacerbated in Karl Kroenen's worlds as most of them usually have landscapes that allow you to see incredibly far, so the issue is more pronounced. The 3 attached photos are of Boar Cove. First is "off," second is "forced," third is "off" after I had selected forced without rejoining the world. https://youtu.be/THoOUPwqZBo

Issue: The Expressions Wing of the Quick / Main Menu should normally replicate the Expressions Menu of the Action Wheel. This is currently not the case though, as the new Avatar Height slider is missing from it. Same thing goes for the Release Poses button btw, but there is already a canny for that one: https://feedback.vrchat.com/bug-reports/p/1236release-poses-is-missing-from-wing-menu-expressions Expected Behavior: All the Avatar Quick Actions of them Action Menu should also be in the Expressions Wing. So please add the Avatar Height Slider to it as well. (And maybe also the Release Poses option if you are already at it) Attachments: Here are pictures showcasing the issue:

Issue: I've made a script that enforces the max / min height if someone joins with / switches to an Avatar that is bigger / smaller than what is allowed. I still want people to be able to change their height inside that limited range though. Doing this is currently impossible however, as enabling manual scaling puts the player back at their original / set height even if it's outside of the bounds I've set in my world. Repro Steps: Be in an Avatar with a normal height (between 1-4m) Go to my Test world ( https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_95b4a59b-472d-4c6d-9c7d-74b42a86b99f ) Switch to an Avatar taller than 4m If you do this, you will notice that you will be set to a height of 4m for 5 seconds and then get switched back to your bigger height once I enable Manual Scaling again. Expected Behavior: Enabling Manual Scaling through Udon should not set the player back to their original / manually set height, especially not if their original / manually set height is above / below the set limits. With this current behavior it's impossible to create a system that enforces the min / max height while also still allowing people to change their height in a given range. Which is what I think most people would want to do for game worlds.

Issue: When trying to switch into a Local Avatar Test Build you will be in it for like a second and then you are going to be switched back to the Avatar you used before. This makes it impossible to test Avatars on g-test. Expected Behavior: Switching into a Local Avatar Test Build should not instantly put you back into the Avatar you used before.

Using a world camera to render the localplayer and mirror reflection layers, while using an udonsharp script to invoke camera.Render() causes the head to go missing on the open-beta, on live this is fine. However using an animator component to render the camera keeps player head. I have assembled a demo world that reproduces this bug: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_05586ad0-38a5-48ff-9624-c98f3dfcb14c

When you have someone's avatar hidden or set to shield level, they'll more often than not be sunken into the ground and not line up with their capsule, but will be fine when you show their avatar.

With Index controllers, on live, when opening the SteamVR dashboard, regardless of whether your gestures are locked or not, your hands will be posed as "open hand". On the beta, with Legacy Fingers enabled, the same behavior is only observed with avatar gestures enabled, when the gestures are disabled, the hand will be using the "claw" pose instead. Edit: Not sure if one of the updates changed it, but this behavior is now observed regardless of whether "Legacy Fingers" is enabled or not.

After the Patch i was testing my Avatars and still most of them have some kind if Jitter in the Physbones. Mostly the Tail that dependent on how its configurated are jitter so much that it gets unconftual like playing with 10fps. Here some public stuff i found where i notice the problems too. On this one the Tail has a Drag and jitters alot https://vrchat.com/home/avatar/avtr_65232f76-c56d-465d-bafb-995846ded311 On this one even Moving the Hands make the Feather jitter https://vrchat.com/home/avatar/avtr_78e1fe50-8d1e-4c30-ae6a-a5a45aa994b7 On this one even the Idle Tail animation looks like low fps with the jitter https://vrchat.com/home/avatar/avtr_8bac0b9b-ca2d-41f2-9a1c-5de179ecb6de on all the Models its totaly fine on the Live version. I'm using a Ryzen 5 3600 OC / Geforce GTX 1660ti / Win 10 with all stuff on the lastest driver.
