1) Setup - Create Your First VRChat World

[@iconoclass]

The part of this video (covering the installation of Unity and the VRCSDK) is outdated (unless you are using Mac or Linux); please install the VRChat Creator Companion (tutorial and download linked below) and then start this video halfway through where I cover the Unity interface. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqaUmGOKjtR9qbc vcc.docs.vrchat.com/ Also, the addon VRWorldToolkit (covered at the end) can now be imported through the VRChat Creator Companion, see how to do so here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZ7CY4ynq6yarq8 github.com/oneVR/VRWorldToolkit/releases/latest CyanEmu has been superseded by ClientSim and is now included in the VRCSDK. WCA is depreciated because the VRChat Creator Companion replaced it. If you need help, please Google your questions first; chances are someone else already asked. If you are encountering errors in Unity: 1. Check the console tab, hit clear and look up the red errors that still remain. 2. If you still have questions, use the search bar to look them up in the VRChat Discord before asking (chances are someone already had the same question that you did) discord.com/invite/vrchat 3. If your problem is with Unity itself, look in the Unity forums.

Why is it always the smaller channels that give the best tutorials? seriously, this guy deseves more subscribers

[@VanyerRavenbane]

Wow, this is without a doubt the best tutorial series on making VRChat worlds, It's really appreciated how much depth and specifics you get into when talking about doing things, finally tutorials that I actually can learn things from, and aren't just jumbled over on the important information. Phenomenal job man! =)

[@Squid-Jelly]

exactly my thoughts

[@dalfinvrc5751]

I'm making my first VR Chat world and this is the most comprehensive series I've found. You did a great job and thanks for making this

[@iconoclass]

If you want help, please do the following: 1. If you have any errors, look at the console tab, hit clear and look up the red errors that still remain. 2. If you still have questions use the search bar to look them up in the VRChat Discord before asking (chances are someone already had the same question that you did) discord.com/invite/vrchat Or if your problem is with 3rd-party tools (like UdonSharp), then search/ask in other relevant Discord servers, such as the UdonSharp Discord discord.gg/Ub2n8ZA Helping people learn these topics is often thankless work, and the same questions often get asked many times by many different people. Please respect those who are giving you help and make sure to thank them! They want you to learn and grow as an artist!

CAUTION !!! this comment is created on 2022 Dec 28 the VRCSDK3 package is now not available like the video, what you can download and install is what we call the "VRChat Creator Companion" the VRChat Creator Companion (or VCC for short) handles all the packages you need to install, including : VRCSDK, VRC-World, UdonSharp (episode 9 requires this), PostProcessing, Client Simulator (the offical version of Cyan Emu developed by Lord CyanLaser), VRC Toolkit (by Lord 1), and more the VCC also handles any updates of any packages (if any available), with just a single click, VCC will handle all the installments (the same goes for making avatars but this is not what this series is about) also starting from 2023, SDK2 will be deprecated, so SDK3 is HIGHLY recommended, plus Udon (the programming language used for VRChat which VRC developed themself) is more flexible than SDK2 and that sh**y CVR and trust me, in Udon, you don't need to write a single line of code, it's visual scripting and it is extremely easy to learn.

I don't think a person without previous Unity experience like me can figure this out.

[@MiMi-hj6fe]

is it easier to make worlds than avatars? someone please answer!!

[@iconoclass]

They are completely different workflows and not an apples to apples comparison. "Making" avatars as in kitbashing/frankenstiening parts isn't terribly difficult, neither is basic VRoid, making one "from scratch" is incredibly difficult and tedious, and with frankenstiening "from scratch" it is very easy to make things go horribly wrong. Making worlds is very different in that things are more spread out and difficulty varies greatly based on complexity. In professional game development making characters and environments are almost always done by different people, and further compartmentalized in medium to large studios.

Sadly skipped 2 steps. The VRChat SDK doesn't always grab the correct path so it is good to manually select it. The second one is it doesn't auto log in when you first load it might if you play on the same machine as you develop on.
