15:31 I'd highly recommend setting all of your unmoving objects as static using the little checkbox in the upper right hand corner of the screen, that way you can open your lighting window and generate baked lights on all of the static objects in your scene. Using a combination of static lights and emissive materials will create incredibly beautiful raycasted lighting all over your entire scene with almost zero performance cost, unlike dynamic lights which will murder your performance when not used sparingly.

Do you have discord? i need a bit of help with my vr world, just the lighting issue

[@RudeNippah]

@@lexiondubs1411 Sorry, I don't use vrchat anymore. If you're looking for help with baked lighting in unity, I learned it from Brackeys lighting tutorial. There are a few things different now, but it mostly works the same.

[@CheeseburgerStreaming]

im not sure what checkbox you're talking about?

This is not only a great VRC world tutorial, but an incredible intro to Unity. Really takes a lot of the headache out of your first time using it

I love her

[@linkpingu]

This is perfect, I just started learning how to make worlds for VRChat and this helps greatly ! Thanks :)

[@aj2kewl]

I've never touched Unity before, but this was a great way for me to dive in and try it! I've been playing VR Chat for only 7 months, and I've been interested in making my own little home. This was a great introduction video! Thank you!

congrats and now that you got me started, now I can carry on, learning blender and unity in depth now, would not have not happened if it was not for you.

[@lycanlass]

Yeah i agree it wasn't 3 HOURS LONG like literally some "noob" tutorials are

[@ZStrief]

This is the best tutorial! Everything is so well explained and easy to follow along with. Thank you so much for making this!

[@EmmyVR]

Honestly, other videos have been really unhelpful, but this is straightforward and so very simple. THANK YOU. 💚

[@kylemartinez6514]

This video is incredibly well done! I love the music choice, the video was very direct and informative, and all of the notes added in editing were extremely helpful!! thank you a ton!

[@gwenthetodeke]

Wow, this is the first video that I've seen on this channel, and you made a very good unity tutorial!

[@Kitchwamon]

This tutorial is perfect. It outlines all the basics of world-building efficiently

[@ToxicDerg]

Thank you for making this sooo easy to understand. The thing I like about this the most is the pacing. You don't take forever to speak but you aren't too fast.

[@justinv.535]

THANK YOU so much for this tutorial and for using the guide so I know im on the same page as you, I've been waiting for an updated tutorial and this is IT. You got yourself a new member to support you!

[@eternallysami]

I'm so glad the tutorial helped with making a VRChat world, these videos take a long time to make but it's comments like these that make it worth it 🌸💯 I'm working on a new tutorial now for high and low quality mirrors, so that'll be uploaded in a few days. Thanks for the support and for making me smile 💯💚

[@realJenni]

simple and straight to the point. combined with my blender knowledge i should be able too make a small but peronalized world now! thank youuu

[@no00ob]

I've been working with Unity for around 5 years now and learned VRC World and Avatar creation a while back. I took a break and now trying to get into it again. Glad to see they've made it way more in-depth, but also at the same time I'm not quite sure why they had to deprecate SDK2. Most users are not looking into programming everything themselves, most of them probably just want to create a small cozy world akin to that of the one you did in the video, which SDK3 makes greatly harder with udon. Hell even I had no idea how to even make a simple toggle... Still super helpful stuff thank you for the tutorial!

[@Dominik-K]

THis tutorial is super helpful. Thanks a bunch for it! I'll be trying my luck thanks to your straight to the point tutorial

[@xenorionamoonheart]

Thanks a lot for this.. the other tutorials have been to complicated or they didnt explain a few things and just speeded it up like all knew it xD im completely new but want to learn to make worlds, and this was easy to follow thank you

[@tommynator97]

This method works well on smaller worlds, but I suggest looking into building the map in a 3d modelling software like Blender or Maya when you make bigger worlds, getting the material count down, and optimizing it a bit more. But that being said, this is a great starting point, and a good way to understand the process of how it works. Good job!

[@kevinsoul9299]

Can u Elaborate more in this idea or give more info? Cause I'm trying to make some avatars/worlds but with the best optimization I can possibly do

[@tommynator97]

​ @Kevin Castillo I know that there are people more qualified to answer this more, and in more detail, but I’ll give it a try. If for example, we take this room and recreate it, but in Blender instead. We can create it either essentially the same way with separate cubes, then combining them into a single mesh after the fact, and make the walls take one material slot, then floor take one slot, and so on. This already makes it much more optimized by making the materials not having to be called multiple times, and also having everything be a single mesh again reduces the overall times they need to call to render the map. Adding the custom props in Unity should be fine, but you can also probably import them into Blender. If you’d add the props in unity it would make them more easily customizable through Udon n’stuff, while adding them through blender would be a lot more convoluted, you could probably make them slightly more optimized… Or you could make the whole map in blender, editing, and extruding from a plane for example. Customize the UV maps, align the textures, and have it all fit into a handful of, if not even a single material. That way you can have the whole world be a single mesh in addition to the reduced materials, and in the end reducing the draw-calls immensely. For even bigger maps, there is something called culling which hides parts of the map that are not currently needed. Don’t know much about how to set this up, I am not at all confident on this topic at all. I hope my tired, rambly brain managed to get a comprehensible explanation down. The main concern is mostly just trying out, and experiencing for yourself. Get something out there, and finished first, then start figuring out a workflow that works for you, and then just keep learning more and more with each iteration. I wish you luck, and happy crafting… or something… meh, I’m too tired to think straight, and I should probably have waited to type this out, but I’ve gone too far to give up now...

[@kevinsoul9299]

@@tommynator97 so In resume, Unity lets you put puzzle pieces 1 by 1, while in Blender I can arm the puzzle, and paste it directly onto unity that way it will be only 1 big piece instead of many small ones that are required to get called when loading and seeing the map

[@tommynator97]

@@kevinsoul9299 That's actually a pretty good way of putting it, yeah. I might need to borrow that one for the next time I need it ^^

[@TheWavys]

@@tommynator97 so are you saying it would be smart to build 95% of the world in blender, then exporting it to unity to get finish and get it to function with vrchat?

[@12fishcake]

This is super helpful, thank you! After playing with the idea of remaking the interior of my house in VR, as seen in other vids, I thought: hey this would be cool in VRchat! (Since it's also done in unity) It would be pretty interesting to be able to have my friends visit a recreation of my room in vrchat. If I can get the positioning right, I could in theory sit at my desk irl and in game (as long as I don't move anything irl 😅). The full house might be a bit complicated, but 1 room would be an interesting start! I'm no 3D modeler, but I know enough to make some basic objects in blender - enough to at least make a representation of where the stuff is irl, even if it's not gonna be the prettiest looking model haha

[@henerum]

Small tip that wasn't mentioned here! If you know how to work in some other 3d modeling software and you don't have the skill to work in Unity, you can for example make a SketchUp model, extract a "collada" version of the file (file name will have a suffix ".dae") and then you can drag in your already made 3d model into Unity!

[@bucksnoriver2287]

good!

[@tigerzero5216]

I've wondered about content creation in VRCHAT. Is there on line creation of objects like in old SL? Interesting lesson. How it is done is not that much different in process from the old content creation done in Second Life. Except it is created outside of the sim world. In your case. No one can see you making it. No feed back. They only see it when it is done after you have ported it in. Someone can point out a mistake and you have to go back off line and fix it and port it back in. SL has in world creation. Yes it is old. But the feature of a passer by can see what you are building and make a comment on it. That person pointing out a mistake or suggest a good addition. You make the fix right in front of them watching it happen. That in world creation interaction... is satisfying. I have not read where in world real-time building happens in VRCHAT.

[@TakiGamesOfficial]

I just got into VRchat! I didn’t know you can play without a headset. I’m so addicted to just browsing all the avatar worlds. Some worlds have like imported meshes from other games. Its too bad everything is Unity based.. I’m more familiar with Unreal Engine. Props to Unity users, it seems a lot less user friendly than UE4.

[@Glowbox3D]

Hello! Thank you for the vid. Can I use standard shader for PBR materials when creating for VRchat, or should I use the shader marked VR? Thanks!
