Open Beta

This is a bug report and a feature request. The new nameplate system completely trashes group banners, which didn't have a great standard (or any standard, for that matter), to begin with. Currently, on live, a (mostly) consistent group banner means uploading a mostly transparent picture with the actual banner in the middle. This is wasting tons of space that could be actually used to show other art or graphics on the group page. The image scales very poorly on some parts of the site, as well. Our uploaded group banner is 2000x1126, following this unofficial guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/VRchat/comments/10e11hb/groups_banner_guide/ The main group page shows the original 2000x1126. A group event page with no custom thumbnail 1024x576 The groups landing page scales the image to 256x144. This is extremely bad if you have made a banner with transparency, as per above. I'm sure there are many more exposed within the client itself and maybe other parts of the website. But I think this is a good demonstration of how wildly inconsistent this group feature is. And now on beta with the new nameplate, we see just a few pixels of the group banner. This is effectively useless now for representing a visual of your group. I've attached a picture showing some of these inconsistencies.

One of the most frustrating experiences you can have with the radial menu is accidentally pressing the "reset avatar" option when going to change your height or release poses. With the new ability for the radial menu to support long press as an input, it would be really cool if avatar reset could be swapped to a long press to reduce accidental miss-clicks. (While less of a problem with the new mirror presets, the second most annoying would be accidentally resetting the mirror! So that's another one that would probably benefit from this.)

Issue: With the new global collider option users can now mark a PhysBone collider as global to allow it to collide with other peoples PhysBones. This however has one problem, you can't have a global collider that can collide with other peoples PhysBones, while not having it collide with all of your PhysBones. For example Furry Avatars often have PhyBones in their toes, but maybe also want to be able to have a global collider on their foot. Currently those two would interfere with each other and there is no way to prevent that without making the collider local or disabling "Self" on the Phys Bone collision. (Doing so would also prevent hands etc from colliding.) Suggestion: Essentially, allow us to somehow have a global PhysBone collider that we can locally ignore. There are 2 ways I could see this being solved: Have a "Ignore Colliders" list on each PhysBone. If you have a global collider that you don't want it to collide with you can just drag it in there. Similar to PhysBones themself, have "Collide Self" and "Collide Others" toggles on PhysBone colliders when set to global, allowing you to decide if it should only be global for you, others or both. Current Workarounds: Currently you can just have "Allow Self" disabled on the PhysBone and live with you not being able to touch or grab them. If you want to add that back you could add your own finger colliders, etc. just for that PhysBone. Attachments: Here is a screenshot of the "Allow Self" and "Allow Others" settings on PhysBones that could also be implemented for colliders.

The new nameplates don't show muted icons, neither for muting another player nor for being muted BY another player.

The updated user profiles use significantly more padding and empty space between elements than before. This partially reduces information density, meaning less useful content and buttons fit within the QM and MM at once and requires more scrolling and clicking to view the same amount of information. Please reduce the excessive padding and spacing between profile elements or provide a compact density option that reduces spacing to allow more information to be displayed at once.

There is no confirmation prompt if you unfriend someone, and with its placement in the redesigned profile being underneath favorite friend in the dropdown, it is entirely possible to misclick and unfriend someone by accident.

The new uniform spacing on friends wing requires significantly more effort to process. When I look at that menu now it honestly just feels like mush, I can't quickly tell where a new world starts and where the friends in that world end, etc. When you have enough friends and you need to scroll this list quickly, it becomes a real point of frustration. I imagine this will get worse as profile decorations are rolled out and names start to look closer to world banner images. The old design was much easier to parse, as the only gaps were between the end of the friends in a world, and the start of the next world.

With the new profile layout you can no longer quick swap pronouns. On the current non beta version you can open your profile, click on your pronouns and it opens up your pronouns menu to swap them. Now on the beta the only way to do this is to open your profile, click on edit profile, scroll all the way down and click edit pronouns just to get the same window to come up. You can't just click on pronouns in profile any more. Its very convoluted to have to do this every time we want to change pronouns and is absolutely a regression in feature so I do not think it is intended seeing as its an accessibility issue for DID/plural folks to add 2 more annoying steps to a process.

I was trying to find more potential feedback for the "problem of verticality" I believe the new profiles have. I've been designing, redesigning, and rethinking profile designs. But I've been editing them based on my local profile, as it's the most controllable. As I was going through a few profiles to see how the UI felt with players who had different settings. (no bio, or no languages/links, notes vs no notes, etc.) I realized that every single profile felt ever so slightly better than my own, layout wise. (still not great) That was when I noticed that the discrepancy. The local profile is the only one with a wallet and inventory button. Which isn't even necessary to use to get to the wallet nor inventory, which have their own buttons 1/10th of the screen away. I might be willing to say it was for some sort of convenience to get to the profile when your in those menus, rather than the other way around. Except that the profile too has it's own dedicated button also 1/10th of the screen away. So why matter? It's not like you go to your own bio to read the information there. (Despite that, "Current Avatar" is also a new field exclusive to your own local profile). Well, it's because when you design your profile, you should have a good idea and accurate control of what other users will see of your profile when they go there. Also, redundant buttons. I don't know how many people even realize your profile and wallet are connected.

I want a feature that allows me to select one or more animation files or prefabs and convert the included constraints to VRC constraints. This would help in collectively modifying existing assets designed for avatars, including those that can be introduced with non-destructive tools.
