[@playerfrankie18]

your welcome

[@Lime_Sherbert]

If this isn't a mood what is

[@playerfrankie18]

I'm just a bit surprised that that my video stopped him from throwing his PC away LOL

[@SnowLepGaming]

Normally my phone would struggle to load vids that are sixteen minutes or more especially at 480p. I'm liking this.

[@v1rtualdog]

almost gave up on trying to texture models until i found your videos, this was extremely helpful and i cant believe im able to put my sona as an avatar now. thank you so much and have a great day :D

[@playerfrankie18]

You're very welcome!

[@JadedGamers-hg9gb]

omfg thank you, i needed this because literally any other video gave no explanation for beginners that didn't even have CATS yet

[@playerfrankie18]

Glad it was helpful!

[@horrorshadow99]

Stumbled upon this video after checking the next videos on xbox, Nice to see you Sister Tressa ^w^ ❤❤

[@jeremytaylor5260]

Hey playerfrankie, this is Catø! Making a transition from substance painter to blender, and this video helped me a hell of a lot. Thanks for the great tutorial, and hope youve been doing well!

[@ryanjohnson6982]

Thank you, this was what I needed

[@playerfrankie18]

Your welcome

[@NoName-gf7vw]

I have never been so thankful I thank you great sir

[@pmpandaIG]

Yo this was helpful keep on upload ing I subed

[@mr.10bst3r4]

If I do edit avatars in the future. I will use your videos as guidance

[@suedeyoung1]

What if you want to do a different body like the long tail and the other parts show up pink? Does that matter or would updating just the body still be fine?

[@insinarate8155]

frankie keep up the good work

[@playerfrankie18]

ok i will thank you

Hello there old friend. it is I MusicDemon. The Guy with a Gentlemen Voice.

[@IShulz]

seems quite easy im gonna try it once i get my pc and vr headset ^w^

[@IShulz]

@@leafplays5990 yesh

[@IShulz]

sadly its money i never knew that :

[@LunaDaSpooky]

I know its been over a year but is there a way to take specific colors on an avatar's model and change them. Like if I wanted to change the white on the part of the texture in the top right(of the 2d texture) to red without accidentally messing with the black.

[@playerfrankie18]

I recommend paint.net or gimp for that

[@LunaDaSpooky]

@@playerfrankie18 thx

[@Nelo_Ejderha]

i got to the part where i need to inport the model into blender and the model didnt show up at all

[@zalievac]

I can’t seems to make cats work in blender it keep on showing me error when I want to import avatar same way as in video I tried most troubleshooting but nothing seems to help. Do anyone know how to fix it thanks

[@playerfrankie18]

I don't know which species what do you mean by cats

[@zerowolf4051]

How do u do pool toy texture I find those adorable pool toy furries so adorable but how would u texture that?

[@frab6904]

nice vid

[@benhoff8541]

9:52 I couldn’t find a Pacific part. I did find an Atlantic one though.

[@KRISYPHER]

Ok i get the blender part but when i go to unity i dont know how to import my model and its just all empty

[@playerfrankie18]

Most likely the project does not have a fbx that would mean it could be under a different file format or it's just a scene without the avatar it depends on what Avatar model you're working with

[@playerfrankie18]

PS I now know what you meant you have to either drag the fbx into the scene or into unity if it's a unity package you go open scene or drag it into unity itself it's like you do a photo

[@playerfrankie18]

[@midnightshadows6365]

i honestly dont get it cause i have installed everything and installed the zip file but nothing shows up

[@skellixer]

would have loved to know when you save the blender model, it doesnt save the textures in the model. 4 hours of work gone

[@playerfrankie18]

um did you same the image you dont need the modal

[@skellixer]

@@playerfrankie18 I saved the entire blender file because I wanted to take a break and resume where I left off. Said it saved the images in the blender file but it didn't.

[@kaylamm4352]

What if I dont have the triangle like you do?

[@playerfrankie18]

Most likely the model you're using does not have a material then after that I can't really help you there I just know if the triangle is there that means there's a material there that you can edit

[@CosmicFox2007]

when you said the torture proto my hands got weak

[@playerfrankie18]

I love protogens I was Not expecting it to turn out that way when I made itI somehow I hit smear by accident and I don't know what I did cuz I was using a really crappy computer when I recorded it

[@aliestercrowley1846]

i cant find the setting for symmetry in my blender. the tab you clicked on doesn't exist for me. is there an update to cats somewhere?

[@playerfrankie18]

It's not part of cats it part of blender in tools

[@lenannitrus4661]

The plugin doesn't work on my laptop anymore

[@THATBEETLELOVER]

how do i get textures on the model?? mines all pink and it has materials. but wont give me and option to color them

[@playerfrankie18]

did ya click the modal did ya forget to in texture mode plus i planning a new video this video is old as heck

[@Broaster07]

No fdx extension files on my model. I have a blend file extension. Had to review several times; searched all assets in Unity and using file explorer.

[@playerfrankie18]

Most time you need the unity project with the fbx inside should made more clear but it is old video

[@redraider7614]

Before I get started does this work on quest? It only allows 2 textures-

[@playerfrankie18]

Any platform

[@Jadirzyd]

Hi, Thanks

[@dakotamathews1025]

For whatever reason the fbx files aren't showing up when I try to import from the cats menu. I have the sdk2, and the right version of unity idk what is up

[@playerfrankie18]

There Must Be Something You Misted Since 3.0 Is The Only Thing You Can Use And This Is a Old Video

[@chocolatedorito7904]

TYSM👹👹👹👹👹

[@natsukivr6027]

Hay it's me from Mario carts ^v^

[@mattiaspinoni633]

link for the base model?

[@Angel_The_Cat]

Every time I try and import the cat blender plug-in it gives me an error I don’t know how to fix it ):

[@playerfrankie18]

for newer version of blender like 4.0 dont work very well the cats plugin only really works good with 3.0 to 3.6 of blender because of it not being updated you dont really need the plugin go to file on top of the top left of your screen in blender then hit file then import then there should be a fbx format you can select what modal please make shore you delete the stuff in scene first tho i will be making a video soon thats exspains everything i did this video like 3 years ago and its still a bit out of date i did not even have a gpu i was making this video on hp all in one lol

hello friend

[@blulavaa2023]

Hey, My VRC name is stuck at L0RD VADER for like 3 months I chanhed it as a joke and i cant get it back for 3 months :/

[@playerfrankie18]

ok

[@maximilianmusohyeahyeah215]

You have to pay to get that model right?

[@jajer7450]

can you import pictures to change the texture or can you only draw to change

[@playerfrankie18]

You can do any picture you want is the funny thing

[@TtvLunaticSuits]

where do you find a vtuber model to import? no one really mentions this part is there a website?

[@playerfrankie18]

You Dont Even Use Blender For That If You Have The Avatar Already Setup In a Unity Project I Should Have Video Coming Soon For That Too

[@mrtoasterfurry]

how do upload a triwaze protogen from the blender to unity?

[@playerfrankie18]

this a old video the modal is a perchase modal the modal ya get on gumroad

[@trapjawrtp5157]

is it possible to get like a fur brush for this like in substance painter

[@playerfrankie18]

old video and i dont think unless thers a add on i cant tell ya sorry

[@Lemman_]

dude make a guide how to make a second pair of ears for this model

[@playerfrankie18]

i keep that in mind

[@jacksoncrosley-dronebuddie9231]

where can i get the model?

[@playerfrankie18]

Gumroad or vrc arena

[@carterslave]

trying to follow this but the model is stuck to being all black

[@playerfrankie18]

Most likely either you colored it all black or you forgot to click on the model again to actually color on it I'm not giving much context of your question so I don't know I'm making a new KZbin video that updates all the information from all the comments of which I've gotten on this video that will come out as soon as I can

[@Nightgen]

so i'm a young fur and i don't own the NKD protogen model and I been trying to get the textures so I can use the textures for toaster arena game

[@Nightgen]

is there a way for anyone to send me the textures? it would help me when I do get the nkd model

[@playerfrankie18]

you dont need modal to do this any modal works depending on what avatar it is but if ya want it thats different

[@fortemusic2887]

Hey, it appears like I am unable to edit the textures, despite rebooting blender and moving through the process again. I am able to use the fill bucket on the textures, but not the paint tool.

[@playerfrankie18]

Did you try clicking on model with object mode then turning it back to texture mode

[@fortemusic2887]

@@playerfrankie18 yes, it didn’t appear to fix the problem, but instead it just allowed me to use the paint bucket

[@fortemusic2887]

It could possibly be due to something about the png file I am using as a texture background. Like it’s obscuring my ability to edit the UV map

[@KingRevvi]

@@fortemusic2887 I'm having the same issue. Were you ever able to resolve?

[@fortemusic2887]

@@KingRevvi I did manage to fix some things, however it only applied to certain parts of the model. I moved to substance painter to avoid the hassle, just sucks how expensive it is. Good thing there is a free trial.

[@gnomey1483]

My model is pink even when i put in the textures im so confused

[@playerfrankie18]

Stay tuned i Have a updated Video that will answer some of other people comments yours to

[@maeeeolszyk9493]

I know this is a really stupid question but- who did the model and is it free?

[@playerfrankie18]

It's not free it's the nkd proto this is a old video updated one coming soon

[@XamaruBeats]

Where did you get the textures or how did you make it????🥺

[@XamaruBeats]

I want a different emblem thing but Idk how I'd make what I need

[@playerfrankie18]

You can use any images you want or get it from your project it self this is a old video so please forgive the error in that part check my simple start or wait until bring the new video on this subject

im planning to do new video soon stay tuned for that

[@sleepyknave]

do u have to pay for the models?

[@playerfrankie18]

Yes and no there's a lot of free ones and there's a lot of paid ones you can find them mostly on VRC Arena AKA also Gum Road or VRC mods for recommended VRC Arena or Gum Road

[@illyart_playz5121]

What if we dont have Cats plugin

[@playerfrankie18]

then remove the stuff in scene then import fbx on top right of blender
