Really helpful as I've had so many issues with importing from blender when adding clothes, thank you so much!

[@matiashartwig6745]

Oh my GOD! This would've saved me SO MUCH TIME a week ago. You go Pxinky. I'm your biggest fan.

[@Susy773]

what if the clothing that I added doesn't have blend shapes set up, only the body?

[@cavebearking5321]

thats what i need to know too. as the body is working with blend shapes just fine, but when i try to find the blend shapes on the cloths, they are not there, so i cant find and fix the issues.

[@PxINKY]

Check my "how to make blendshapes" tutorial! You can easily add and shape them in blender, then export back to unity

[@cavebearking5321]

i think i may have found out whats up. go into blender after you have put for outfit in it, click on your outfit. got to Data: object data properties ( it will look like a weird upside down green triangle. under the Vertex Grounds tab, there is a Shape Keys tap if Shape Keys box is full of words, that means its okay. but if your Shape Keys box is empty, that means the creator didnt make any of the extra shapekeys for it, and you will have to do it yourself. i hope this helps.

[@Susy773]

@@cavebearking5321 thank u so much!

[@WavyCats]

You can add a blendshapes toggle option to your toggle. That way you can manually configure blendshapes even if they don't exist on your component.

Glad I could help!

[@superninja3338]

What if I have an avatar that is T posing, and the clothing I wish to put on is at an A pose? Are those able to attach to each other? Or do the clothes and the avatar have to be aliened up perfectly?

[@PxINKY]

you can pose the armature, then apply the pose, then delete the armature

[@Reecyboi]

​@@PxINKYwhat if the mesh doesn't have its own armature or no bones

[@harurosech.4848]

I don't know if the option was there from the start, but if you got multiple clothes sets, you can use "Toggle" and "Flipbook builder" option to cycle between them.

[@foolnassoc]

Love how at the beginning ur just like "Yeah uhh... clothing." but by the end you're just calling it the femboy outfit. Character development in real time.

[@PDD555]

Why did I read it as Vrc Furry lol. But this is so useful, thanks

[@SCP--Yurii]

i have to say it was clear until YOUR FURRY THING IS IN FRONT OF IT making it super hard to understand !!!!! i have nothing against furry

[@vibin_pie6809]

where was this when i tried making an avatar a month ago, instantly picked it up and this helped tons!

[@JagerRex]

Lots of help! However, I beg the question: how do I add breathing animation to the clothing to prevent clipping?

[@SuperRitz44]

Is it possible to use this workflow if the clothes arent made specificaly for my avatar? For example, I found a cool free jacket prefab on Booth and wanted to add it to my original avatar. I tried this method, but not only do the clothes scale strangely on play mode, but the sleeves also dont follow the arms.

[@Bear-ty1yz]

I have a question. Say your avatar already comes with a default outfit on and an additional one. between those two, there is a smooth transition when changing. But how do you get that to happen to any other outfits added with VRCFury? I have the new outfit in the same sub menu as the additional outfit that came with the avatar. So I've already made the toggle but whenever I try to test it out with the gesture manager, the clothes clip through the original outfit the avatar has. I would really appreciate the help!!

[@smoll_beans955]

So I am having a little issue, I got the toggles and blendshapes to work. But in unity when the blendshapes are activated there is a tiny bit of clipping. I think its a weight paint issue but could be wrong has anyone had this happen and know how to fix it?

[@mejilluh-j7q]

It worked on my first avi, but now with my other one, its linking to the body but not to the arms and legs... both are set the same way with the hips. What could be causing it?

[@AsureLuna]

Would this also work on Vroid models? Im not the best at using Blender and if I can do everything through Unity that would be great.

[@LazyBrokOli]

Quick question ! does that mean in the case you do have VRC Fury on your avatar you don't need the C.A.T.S. method ? Thx a lot for the content !

[@PxINKY]

Correct, I'd recommend using the vrcfury method over cats 1000%

[@kittysennpaii97]

the copy paste doesn't work when i try to copy the body ... ;-;

[@iayang4892]

can you make a video of how to remove some toggles that you dont want in your avatar menu?

[@aliii195]

does the asset have to be made for the model im using or can i just sculpt it to fit and if so do i have to do anything else for it to work with the model? i’m fairly new to avi stuff lol

[@zeze7022]

“breasts is booba” Truer words have yet to be spoken.

[@thepinkduke]

When i go to upload my avaatar i have to keep the clothing i added to him toggled on or else the toggles wont work, how do i make so the clothing is added even when turned off in the editor ?

[@PxINKY]

go to the options of your vrcfury toggle and click "save between worlds"

[@unkownfoever]

the avatar i am trying to put clothing on has a breathing animation and it clips through

[@Blu3Spot]

this only really works if you're not using an edited model, if your clothes have bones, and if your clothes have blendshapes

[@PxINKY]

Vrcfury auto changes / re-parents additional bones as well as the "blendshape link" script can be used to easily match blendshapes automatically

[@updatedotexe]

Why didnt u explain how to solve the clipping with the breasts?

[@PxINKY]

Thats a mistake due to the creator of the asset at the time, the shapekey did not exist but if your asset does have the right shapekeys, I explained how to use and set up the "blendshape link" from vrcfury which would fix this!

[@Goldenmaster-yv9lq]

I have an issue, I am working on attaching a wickerbeast hoodie to my wickerbeast and in the blendshapes for it there is no hide slider. Anyone that can help me?

[@PxINKY]

You can make your own blendshape! (Tutorial for that on my channel) Alternitively if you are just wanting to toggle the hooding on/off just use an object toggle

[@eden3155]

When I used the VRCfury toggle system the toggles do not stay enabled when I switch worlds. Is there a way to fix that?

[@PxINKY]

Options, go to "options" in the toggle. Then select "save between worlds"

[@p0lit3cat]

what would someone do if the clothes attached look backwards in world?

[@PxINKY]

Flip the normals, search how to do so on blender docs

[@p0lit3cat]

@@PxINKY thank you for the response

[@ppppuma]

Hey, can you make a tutorial on how to get body physbones to work with clothing? Whenever my avatar moves the clothing clips because of the physbones.

[@morriganENVT]

Oh, I appreciate this so much! I'm an absolute baby when it comes to 3d models and your explanation and visual instructions have helped so much!! Thank you so so much!

[@WavyCats]

If the blendshape doesn't exist on your object and only the body, you can add a blendshapes toggle option to your toggle alongside your object toggle by hitting the plus on the VRCfury toggle component. That way you can manually configure blendshapes even if they don't exist on your object. :)

[@ThatGuySudzz]

so i did this with an avi i was working on and when the outfit is on no one else but myself can add it everyone else sees the avi nude when the outfit is equipped how can i fix this?

[@PxINKY]

Are you quest and are they pc? you need to upload changes to both parts of your avatar in order for them to work!

[@Chcoloate_Bread]

I'm still so confused on the "no valid mapping found" part since I'm not using novabeast and I don't know what I need to look for TwT can someone tell me what I need to do?

[@PxINKY]

What are you trying go attach to what avatar? Is it specifically designed for your base?

[@Chcoloate_Bread]

​​​​@@PxINKYno the clothing is not made for the avatar im using. I edited it to fit in blender I'm trying to attach a Deira sweater to a base call Sophorn

[@Chcoloate_Bread]

okay now I got the clothing to at least appear in vrchat. But the clothing item is stuck in a tpose 😭😭😭

[@usamabinmuzaffar692]

Not bad. Though as unfortunate as it is, I don't see a lot of in depth technical stuff for which Udon can be used. There's just way too many limitations that make dynamic world building very difficult.

[@PxINKY]

Yeah, mixing editable code and interaction systems with none-destructive modularity is only going to be an absolute mess i do wish there where more QOL tools for avid world creators (im not one, so maybe there is?)

[@usamabinmuzaffar692]

​​@@PxINKYI'm not a corporately hired game developer anymore, I just do game dev for fun. The thing I'm working on right now is to make a portals in VR Chat. Problem is that from the VR headset, the perspective of everything just goes horribly wrong. I've figured out most of the math behind the perspective issue, but Udon doesn't allow me access to most of the stuff I need to implement it. So I'm kinda stuck there 😅

[@Kyovers]

I should've watched this tutorial first. Holy christ I went through so much pain going through other tutorials. even 40 minute long ones. all failed and finally I came to you after half of a day and oh my god... I was so fucking stoked I could finally put my outfits on my avi. and it was so god damn easy too. so thank you for guiding my dumb ass to joy.

[@SkySweetie]

Is it okay that I just added a toggle to turn one mesh on and off for the other, instead of using blendshapes at all?

[@PxINKY]

If your avatar has any kind of body shape sliders then youll run into issues. But otherwise yeah

[@Bernardo9999ify]

Yo.. for real tysm this helped me so much. after seeing how to do my head just started working by itselfand was like.. mhmm then this is how it should be to take off clothes and change blendshapes. i kinda have it figured out thanks to u. thank you so much will definitely come back so i dont forget. does this work if i wanna add like accessories to body/head/ears? thats only for future ofc hahaha still have lots to learn

[@HikikomoriDev]

...Seems like VRCFury is taking over as a great middleware system for avatars.

[@randomcamera8511]

Thank you kindly

[@Presety]

hey, can u help me? For some reason, i do all the tutorial correctly, but when i go to the game, "works", but when i walk the cloth dont follow the avatar, or follow with a BIG delay, and if i crouch, the cloth dont follow too, stays on the position that when im stand, how to fix it?

[@PxINKY]

This means you connected the clothing wrong or it didn't come with an armature

[@Presety]

@@PxINKY i fixed, i used the normal and old method using blender ^^

[@Abyssiac]

if you still reply im having a issue where the toggle wont turn off after being turned on

[@PxINKY]

How did you make the toggle? what did you use to do it?

[@fancyfeesh8560]

My toggles tend to untoggle when I change instances, any idea why and how I can fix it?

[@PxINKY]

Make sure to go to "options" and hit "save between worlds"

[@Voliecantread]

This tutorial was a big help! But im having a problem with the chest physbones not moving the clothing with the chest. So it causes the chest to clip through clothing rather than the clothes moving with the chest. Is there a way to fix this?

[@tinytoast4625]

can you do a vid of adding a hair toggle on the novabeast plz ;-;

Already have a hair tutorial. And this video would work just the same for hair

[@dewperland]

tenk u so much for creating dis wonderful tutorial!

[@rippyzippy7200]

I have no idea why but it stopped working for me and when I try using it with my Avi the breast bones aren't working

[@PxINKY]

This can happen depending on the way you chose to apply it. Id suggest asking for help in the vrcfury discord, they are super knowledgeable!

[@nuthouseproductz]

This helped thank you had to skip the gesture manager part as it was just not working well with the avatar makes doing it by hand a thing of the past.

[@stacksofvotes3633]

How Do you adjust the sleeves? The free sources I find are in A-Pose and you have your character in T-Pose. Thanks in Advance!

[@PxINKY]

You would follow my fitting guide, as it sounds like your clothing isnt made for your armature If you want to fit it easily you can pose the bones in blender and set the pose as rest

[@Sabbress]

can you do this with ANY avatar? Humanoid posssibly?

[@PxINKY]

As long as the armature / outfit is made for your specific base / rig then yes! Otherwise youll need to refit the outfit to your armature (i have a video for this too)

[@Sabbress]

the outfit should have multiple meshes (objects) but should still only have 1 armature so just duplicate the toggle you use for each piece and this video should still work the same

[@sleeve9097]

when you add shoes what bone are you supposed to attach them to? it says left foot and right foot but not both

@@albasu_ vrcfury only adds bones that don't have matching bones on the base avatar. So if you're using the same rig on the clothing and avi, then nothing new is added. It just re-parents the clothes to the base model's armature, discarding the armature already on the clothes. If the clothes have bones for things like pull strings or something, yeah those are added in because the base avi doesn't have those. The rest gets merged normally.
