I was a part of the layoffs. I will be diverting my focus back to XSOverlay and other projects I have in mind. It sucks, but, you know.

Hover ship racing in VRChat. Soon *tm*. Working on tweaking the phsyics right now. It's gonna be fast.

Now that VRChat has Aim Constraints, we can set up properly functioning twist bones to help with pinching in the wrists or elbow areas. This video demonstrates the effects of that.

This is still pretty WIP and not fully functional yet. But I'm working on UI 3.0 for XSOverlay. This update will move all UI to be outside of Unity, in the form of a web application. This means you, the user, can customize it however you want.

Do you use substance painter?. Do you paint stylized models?. Do you hate having to select the "Base Color" dropdown?. Do you wish "Base Color" existed with Opacity?. Here's a shader for Substance Painter to fix that for you. You can thank me later.

90% functional. Missing some elements still. Wish I could use a different font but NotoSans is the only font that supports every language.

people discovering watching media in VR on a large floating display for the first time is so funny to me since we've been doing it since like 2018. welcome to the present i guess, a shame your device can barely last the length of a movie.

I have to say, sometimes using playing media's album art for the theme really pops off on the color selections. honestly might be one of my favorite features I've ever implemented for real.

xstoon fur update come soon with better method for LONG FUR. also thinking about making a grooming tool so that you can literally comb the direction you want the fur to go onto the mesh. still wip, might be a bit before it actually gets released.

I've published my fur shader! I've done this in a bit of a different way though - this will be the first shader I've posted for any kind of money. It's (as far as I know) the most optimized fur for VR, and it's only 10 dollars. You can find it here!.

XSOverlay will soon be getting a Wrist UI overhaul, and will let you import custom assetbundles as themes for various parts of the UI (for now, just the wrist, i will be releasing an SDK soon and updating the docs page!). Here's a sneak peek!

@JasperRLZ I feel less bad about all the random scuffed shit that I do when making things when I see things like this. Game development really is full of workarounds and hacks.

This month's patron shader has been released! Here's a preview of it in action! The shader is fully commented and goes over the process of creating it as well, like last time!. This will be improved soon, when av3.0 hits the live VRChat branch as well!.

Pssst. You guys ever wanted an inventory in VRC? Toggle-able objects? Well, my editor script makes it as easy as 1-2-3. Just set your avatar, drag in your objects, and boom!. Instructions are in the "Intructions.txt" file. :).

Constellation shader releasing now on Patreon. You can do a wide variety of things using this shader. You can look like a starfield, or go full memes, only limited by your creativity, and a sprite sheet. It does support animated sheets btw. GO GO GO!

probably final layout before this goes to live. Center of FPS bar shows target, anything above it goes past the center, anything below target is under the center of the bar. Shows current total ms / target now, and CPU / GPU timings are accurate. Now also shows GPU / CPU temps

Since VRC8Ball was archived and will no longer be support by the developer, I will be publishing a slightly updated version to my GitHub today. The only changes I've made are fixing the shadow plane shader, so that you no longer need to have the table at Y = 0.

XSToon v2.5 is out! Finally!. This fixes a few bugs as well as adds a whole host of new features! Including Dissolve Map support! Enjoy!.

I've released a small, fun update to XSToon in light of the KDA music video! . This update allows emission to scale with the brightness of your environment! . Here's some examples! Fully Lit, Half lit, and Fully dark!

I know I *just* posted about the grass, but I just added shadowing, and now it looks a million times better.

Youve never seen grass pushed this far in VRC before. Hell, you may have never seen it pushed this far in any game before. Even BoTW doesn't do grass this dense. I'm even making a dynamic wind system for it that allows you to control the wind speed and directions.

Can we stop calling them Meta?. It’s Facebook. Mega is just a way for them to make you forget that it’s Facebook. It’s always been Facebook, and it’ll always be Facebook. Let’s not forget how shit they are. It’s just a shitty disguise, and a fucking joke.

Thank you all for the kind words to not only me but my friends, many of whom were also hit by a shitty situation. Keep in mind that even the people still working are probably feeling bad about their job security and they also may need your support. You’re all wonderful.

Duplicate heads to make shape keys? Yeah, no thanks. I'll stick to my AFK method. This is a much faster workflow. Bulk of time spent doing the rigging. After that, keys are *fast* to make, then you just afk for a bit while the script does it's thing. Pretty ez.

Just need to style the individual device bubbles properly. But this shows how youll be able to see all device details. Currently the main page shows both controllers, and then the lowest 3 trackers, with all devices viewable. This is also a first peek at the animations

New audio occlusion system with debugging and it supports internal volumes within rooms. Wall thicknesses actually matter. Amazing. Thanks to @kegeenkhg for helping me test and being a rubber duck for like, hours.

Hi all. Just letting anyone who cares know that this will likely be my last post on Twitter. If and when a new platform arrives worth anything, I will do one last post so anyone who cares can find me on there. Until then, catch you all on the flip side. It’s been a good run.

I find it funny how bad of a public image VRC has, but to me it literally is what gave my my job in programming. XSOverlay would have probably never existed had it not been for me getting addicted to VRC and meeting the people that I did. Hell, I may not of even had VR.

I do love how I was completely open and transparent about the anonymous analytics, and people bash me for it. You do know that competing software also collects analytics, right? . You also know those analytics help debug issues faster, right?. 1/4.

If you ever wonder why updates to XSO have been taking forever just remember that I had to build an api. Soon(tm) this API will be public for Web Applications to use, once those are released. As of the next beta update, the API will be available to external tools, with docs!

Since I'm releasing the grass shader this month, I've spent some time really polishing some things up. One of those things is lightmapping support. You can have the grass with baked lighting! Wew!

If you pirate my stuff, just remember that you're taking away from my only source of income. The things I develop and sell are literally my lively-hood, think before you mess with someone's life. Oh, and you're automatically on my shit list for life.

Guys, I know the beta is buggy. It’s a beta. That’s why it exists. Bug reports are fine, but being aggro about it is not fine. Would you rather the software never got updated?. Don’t opt into a beta if you don’t want bugs, and don’t start trashing it and me. Simple as that.

I think something some people haven’t realized yet is that memory usage has gone down significantly since the new UI updates and will only continue to do so. XSO went from taking 300MB of ram / vram to close to around 120ish. That is a huge amount of freed up resources.

Yesterday I learned that juggling in VRC isn't as hard as real life and now I have an addiction. Maybe I will figure out the three object juggle through VRC. Two is already hard enough though without feeling the weight of the objects.

Aiya and her two color schemes will likely be available on booth in the near future. I'm glad the reception has been good thus far. I think she's cute af. Probably the best model I've made thus far, honestly.

XSOverlay's keyboard is about to get a lot cooler. Been hard at work on the Keyboard 2.0 update. Honestly, XSO is about to get a lot cooler in general and you guys should buy it if you haven't. Many things in the works. Some closer to release than others. :).

Yes, I am passive aggressive, but only if you start with it. I have, in the past week alone, gone out of my way spending hours to help users debug issues because they came to me in a calm, polite manner with their issue. It's not hard to have decency. Developers are humans too.

There’s been some reports of XSOverlay being blocked by EAC, Vanguard, and similar. This is due to the permissions required to monitor CPU temp, and sometimes CPU usage. Because of this, I will be removing CPU temperature monitoring this week. Sorry for any inconvenience.

People threatening to go back to use my competition because a setting they want doesn’t exist. The setting: exists. Yeah, I don’t know man, use your eyes. I can’t help you if you’re blind. You should probably go to an eye doctor. But, im curious how you play VR while blind.

I don't usually bring drama onto my twitter but let's get some things straight:. VRCBilliards exists (on my GitHub) because I decided to create a safeguard for when Harry loses his mind over something insignificant, and deletes the original repo, randomly. 1/5.

As promised, here's the twist bones for VRChat tutorial. If you are familiar with twist bones, you can skip most of it, and the guide becomes very short. If not, I go in depth on how to really set up stuff in blender in a simple way.

I’d really love to know how people have energy for more than a couple of hours a day. Feels like I’m drained after even 5-6 hours of being awake most days. Perhaps my burnout is worse than I thought, but sitting around and doing nothing is boring.

@Acerola_t I don’t think it would have sadly. Ark dropped 10 years ago almost. Everybody loved it despite the fact that it was riddled with issues + they launched multiple DLC while it was in early access. Companies have always and will continue to do these types of things.

I've updated the VRCBilliards prefab to include new, made by me art. The art I've made will remain firmly in the public domain. You're free to do whatever you want with it. Along with that, I've fixed multiple bugs and changed some SFX.

I'm going to put this out there right away before I start getting more DMs about it, because it's kind of silly. No, I am not interested in making you the next Projekt Melody. Just because I make models doesn't mean I want to be associated with that industry.

You can now lay down and maintain your layout. Also, if you grab a window that's rotated and you're within the limit for "laying down" it'll just automatically rotate to the right orientation. If you're not within that limit, then it will be flat and aligned properly. :)

XSToon 2.0 is out! This release is a complete rewrite from scratch of the shader! Lighting should now be more consistent across every lighting scenario, and you should be able to edit the shader easier!. You can find it here, or by using the updater!.

We're getting places boys. As promised, here's a showcase of all the stuff I've been working on! . I've done a full overhaul of how the UI looks, I'm going for a nice clean, minimal design. I've added Left and Right click support, and soon, scrolling. Part 1/2

Because I remodeled my face, I decided to remodel the entire thing. I reduced the bases poly count by around 7k triangles, and it looks overall better. The topology is so clean now. I'm very happy with this. Might Booth it after I make an outfit👀
