You're a life saver! My Poiyomi shaders were really bugged, and now everything is fixed!

[@omniaesthetic1256]

I had no idea about the "Anchor Override" setting giving consistent shading across your avatar. Thank you so much for that tip!

[@CamembertDave]

This was really helpful, thanks. I didn't realize you could play around with the blend shapes outside of the animation preview - that would have saved me a lot of time yesterday!

[@dvdramm]

you are very good at explaining everything. Thank you sooo much!

bless thank u

[@qadirqureshi7805]

Thanks ❤..some times we export fbx from blender and import fbx into unity then some materials are missing can you know what the reason behind that?

[@Airbee]

Sorry, i don't know why that sometimes happens. I just always recreate all the materials in Unity

[@muhammadakif3174]

how to use these material in HDRP or URP

[@Airbee]

I'm sorry, i don't know.

Hey I'm having an issue with my model so basically the model has two shaders one for the head and one for the body. I changed the name of the head to body and body to !body because im trying to make the blendshape keys work in MMD worlds but whenever i upload the model or even when using Gesture Manager the textures on the face get messed up and use the body textures instead. If i change the names of the body and head back to normal then its fixes the textures but the blendshapes dont work. Any ideas on how i could fix this??

[@Airbee]

You should be able to re-assign the correct materials in unity like i'm doing at 1:40

[@edwinblue13]

​@@AirbeeThe models looks fine in unity but when I'm in vrchat thats when the shader changes

[@Airbee]

@@edwinblue13 Maybe you have some Toggles or Animations that swap the materials depending on the Mesh name? I had something like that, i had Material Toggles with VRCFury, and was confused that they "broke" after i changed meshname or material order

[@edwinblue13]

@@Airbee I am using VRCFury so that sounds like it could be the problem any idea how I could fix it?

[@Airbee]

@@edwinblue13 try removing all VRCFury components on a copy and upload and see if its fixed then
