[UPDATED FOR 2023] How to Export VRoid Studio Models to Unity (3D/URP)

[@ReForgeMode]

Phew! It took a while, but I finally update the tutorial for 2023! If you want to support me and watch this and future videos earlier, support me on Patreon! www.patreon.com/ReForgeMode

[@rainbi991]

For anyone who' has the issue for URP where the model is transparent, try deleting your universal render pipeline asset, creating a new one, and reassigning it in project settings. Took a couple of hours of experimenting with an empty project but my model finally works for version 2022.3.1 :p

[@ReForgeMode]

Interesting find. I haven't managed to replicate the bug consistently, but it just seems one of many weird bug with Unity. If all else fails, try to download my repo with UniVRM already pre-installed: github.com/ReForge-Mode/Unity_VRoid_Template_Projects

[@areebahmed9181]

which universal render pipeline asset youre talking about, there's one in the assets folder (UniversalRenderPipelineGlobalSettings) or 3 others in the settings folder

[@MrGamelover23]

​@@ReForgeModeIgnore my earlier comment. I didn't skip to step 8 like you said.

[@MrGamelover23]

​​@@ReForgeModeOkay, when I dragged it into my project, the window looked nothing like yours, and in fact, I had two files, one that had a blue cube next to it, and one that had a blank sheet of paper next to it. And when I click on either one, the menu that shows up on the far right looks nothing like yours and had a bajillion different buttons and another ones that you mentioned, including an open button. I clicked open and then drag the blue cube file from the bottom to the top like you did in the video and well I guess it works now. The reason this is a little confusing is because I was under the impression that in order to open your project, it forced me to install the exact same version of Unity you used to make it. So I'm surprised by how different it looked. Hopefully your NEB plugin works, I'll let you know.

[@ReForgeMode]

@@MrGamelover23 Glad that worked out!

great video! I recently started using RealToon instead of MToon just because of the URP issues, but it seems your updated copy of the URP shaders seem to work well.

[@ReForgeMode]

Oh, interesting! But it'll cost you 30$. Does it fit your purpose, though?

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

Is that compatible with all the versions of UNIvrm?

[@ReForgeMode]

@@THE_ONLY_GOD I can only speak for MToon to say that yes, it is compatible for every version of UniVRM, but you have to choose specific version.

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

[@brk29]

Hey there, you have great videos and tutorials! I have a question since you have much knowledge of VRoid models. Using multiple VRoid characters in a scene causes a lot of frame drops, what would you suggest doing in order to increase the performance? (Maybe for like 50 VRoid Models in a scene, animating, etc.)

[@ReForgeMode]

Hmmm... It depends what you need those 50 models do in the game, and what is the lag you're experiencing. Open up the Debug Profiler to figure out what caused the problem. I would assume that it is the very high draw call. If 49 of those are NPC models, I would recommend starting from simplifying the NPC models. Reuce their polygon, minimalize any physics on them. Then you can apply Level of Detail (LOD). LOD allows you to render distant object with less polygon and save performance. I would also recommend turning off the physics for clothes, hair, and boobs for the NPC. If you really have to, you can enable their physics only when they are close (in LOD). There is also Occlusion Culling, which allows you to only render things you're looking at, saving performance. But if you're making MMO where 49 of those are player models... You have a very big problem. You must start with reworking your code. Any loose operation can cause frame drops. All of these suggestions above still apply, but you have to be ruthless in optimization.

Body colliders do not work for VRM 1.0 models for some reason, but hair physics works good (hair clips through the body, even though colliders are there). VRM 0 physics works without any issues

[@ReForgeMode]

Yes, I do notice this too. The hair and boobs physics seem to mess up in UniVRM 1 if your character moves around. I might need to make a deep dive video about this issue.

[@sergehand]

@@ReForgeMode I'll be waiting for this video :) For now I'm using VRM 0.0 physics components on VRM 1.0 models, but it's not optimal of course, because needs manual set up

I tried this, everything seemed to be going well, but I can't import the model into vseeface. I get a "VRM.NotVrm0Exception" error. I even tried just importing a model and immediately exporting it with no changes and the same thing happens.

[@ReForgeMode]

That's probably because you're using VRM 1 UniVRM with VRM 1 model. VSeeFace only supports VRM 0 model.

[@DasAirThief]

Hey man! Love your content, you have been a great help. I am having prouble getting my avatar to blink and move head in unity when using the newer vrm 1.x. Do you have a video coming r know how to fix this? I know you did one before but that does not work on the newer VRM.

[@ReForgeMode]

This blinking video still works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpbPeoSIj5VrsLs. You can either used scripts method or animation method.

[@somegamer7958]

Got a little tip for people using VROID in Unity - whenever you have a scene with a VROID model loaded then load into another scene - your game can freeze up. It doesn't always happen and there's no errors given, but it's definitely caused by VROID. I've found that disabling any VROID models (just set the gameobject's active to false) before changing scenes fixes the problem and your next scene will load normally. This happens very frequently when developing for Switch. It never happens in the editor. Not sure about other builds though. Also, if I do a "development build" for the Switch it never happens. So it's really bizarre.

[@ReForgeMode]

Huh, very interesting! I would look into it, though I don't have any Switch devkit. Does the freeze up happened for a second or it's a hard crash? Loading into new scene will always cause your game to freeze for a second in Unity if you use LoadScene instead of LoadSceneAsync.

[@somegamer7958]

@@ReForgeMode It's a hard crash. Completely locks the system up. It tends to happen the second time you try to load a scene. So the pattern is this: Load a scene with a VROID model Load another scene - it works re-load the scene with the VROID model Load another scene - it locks up So the first time you leave a scene with a VROID model is fine, but the second time it locks up - about 90% of the time. Sometimes it will work then lock up the third time. If I have a VROID models in the scene but disable it - there are no problems, and if I disable the model before leaving the scene is works. I'm guessing it's one of the scripts attached to the model. There's a ton of them.

[@ReForgeMode]

I see... I will test this myself. Can you report this to UniVRM github page? This is definitely a bug. If not, I'll report it myself later.

[@maylogger]

Hello, thank you for developing so many useful tools and providing detailed tutorials. However, as it is now 2024, many tools have been updated, and the names and versions of various sample files have changed. For example, the download list for UniVRM is quite different from what is shown in the videos. Could you please update the tutorial video? Thank you very much! I will join your patreon.

[@ReForgeMode]

Hello! I just checked the recent version of UniVRM and the list is still formatted the same as when this video is uploaded. VRM-0.124.0 is for the version 1.x and UniVRM-0.124.0 is for version 0.x. If there will be an update to this video, I would make further distinction between UniVRM 0.x and 1.x and clarify that URP doesn't work for most vtubing application. But everything will remain just as it is. If you just want your model to work as is, then I recommend just downloading the template project file provided in the video description..

[@hevlin1]

Great video, been looking for a guide like that. I followed every step but Unity writes to me again and againg: Shader error in 'VRM10/Universal Render Pipeline/MToon10': Couldn't open include file 'Packages/com.unity.render-pipelines.universal/ShaderLibrary/Core.hlsl'. at Assets/VRMShaders/VRM10/MToon10/Resources/VRM10/vrmc_materials_mtoon_render_pipeline.hlsl(5)... Can you please help me?

[@ReForgeMode]

Oh, looks like either UniVRM gets corrupted, or that Unity mess up. Try closing Unity, then opening it up again. If that doesn't work, try making new Unity project files. Alternatively, you can just download my github project already preinstalled with UniVRM through the link in the description of the video. So you don't need to go through this headache.

[@cianga]

Awesome tutorial! Question: will sparkle effects be maintained after exporting? I usually use the VSDK plug in to export but it only works with the 2019 version. I will be using URP to create a galaxy effect on my model, but worried it won't show up if i export using VRM

[@ReForgeMode]

No. VFX are Unity-specific. Each 3D models have different implementation of VFX so it's very hard to implement. Perhaps one of many reasons why I should make my own vtubing software...

[@cianga]

Ahhh, gotcha -- thanks for replying! I have zero knowledge in tech/coding stuff so tutorials like these are super helpful. If you ever release your own software, I'll be first in line!

[@ReForgeMode]

Got it! On my way researching it!

[@cianga]

@ReForgeMode thank you! It's a stretch but I figured I'd still try -- if it helps: I use URP to create a Lit Shader Graph & make a galaxy/color shifting Shader & it applies to the model fine. But when I export it using VRM, the model just has no color

[@ReForgeMode]

Oh yeah, that's expected because you're trying to create custom shader. Is it possible to set your material as default Unlit or PBR instead, and then find a setting in your vtubing application to interpolate the color instead? If it doesn't, then perhaps we gonna need some vtubing software that allows custom shaders.

[@SDMGSmash]

Can you make a tutorial for importing animations? I followed your earlier one and it worked great but with any moving animations like walking or running the character just sinks into the floor and shakes

[@ReForgeMode]

Hmmm... Sinks into the floor is highly likely to be collision issues. Add rigidbody and collider components to your model to fix it. Does the model just goes into crouching or "riding a motorcycle" pose? You can try to send the video or images to our official discord so I can help you better.

[@ShelyMB]

i have tried numerous times but my VRM model still fails to show up. i have done trial and error with different vrm models i made, sadly none have worked.

[@ReForgeMode]

If you're still stuck, just open this template project in Unity Hub: github.com/ReForge-Mode/Unity_VRoid_Template_Projects You just need to put your model in.

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

Hi! Oppai physics functions in Unity projects on Android also? Thanks in advance!

[@ReForgeMode]

Yes. Unity scripts should run in every platform imaginable. However, UniVRM boobs and hair physics are kinda messed up right now. I recommend using other plugins like MagicaCloth for it.

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

@@ReForgeMode Ah. Sigh... Had done a lot of study and some hours of work today trying to get that functioning, because mmd4mecanim oppai physics weren't functioning on android. Had put in A LOT of work and study building a workflow in about calendar year 2017 to do the full body interaction with blendshapes and oppai fondling with leap motion and an HMD. Then sadly the guy that made mmd4mecanim went very anti-non-japanese for a while. Maybe have another look at that plugin as hopefully he allowed android platform now that Vroid is so popular. Main reason he was bitchy before was because he apparently considered it a huge amount of effort to make an MMD model back then and mainly japanese were making them.

[@ReForgeMode]

@@THE_ONLY_GOD I was looking into MMD before. Is there a UniVRM equivalent for importing MMD models into Unity?

[@THE_ONLY_GOD]

@@ReForgeMode That is mmd4mecanim. Sadly that software engineer had some anti-non-japanese angst seemingly, so he blocked it from being used to export to android to prevent android games from being made with it some calendar years ago. That is why I switched to this newer method.

[@ReForgeMode]

@@THE_ONLY_GOD Wait what? I'm sure you can easily remove the code to block android build if you can open the script in Unity.

[@NextActRenaVT]

_I've done everything you said here, but my model shows up invisible. is there a fix?_

[@ReForgeMode]

That seems to be a common bug for URP. If you're just using this for vtubing, Unity URP projects don't work for any vtubing application. Use Standard instead. But if you're using URP for gamedev, try out my template project files in the description.

[@ElBuhoStudio]

in your video after the vrm model converted to unity 3d asset, it automatically give the material texture on the model, but mine have no material texture, only gray model, i have to manually create material to skinning the model, do you know why?. thank you

[@ReForgeMode]

To extract the materials properly, you can select the VRM file in Project Manager to select it in the Inspector Window. Then you can switch to materials tab and click Extract Materials. You can also do the same with texture images.

Hmmm, I think it's best to consult Unity's official tutorial on installation on Unity Learn website.

[@ReForgeMode]

This is not a part of the tutorial in this video. This is in the animation with Mixamo tutorial, but I'll explain it. The curled up animation means that your character is not compatible with that animation. Most likely, it's because you haven't set the animation import setting to Humanoid. Root motion has nothing to do with it. Root motion setting is in the Animator component as a checkmark, and in the character import setting as Translate XZ, Y, and Rotate settings in the animation

My character's eyes highlights doesn't have transparency. Is there a fix?

[@ReForgeMode]

Yes. You can open the eye material and adjust the first drop down menu to Cutout.

Hello I don't have the vrm option and I am doing this from laptop

[@ReForgeMode]

That's fine. The tickmark to migrate to VRM1 only appears if you're using VRM0 model with UniVRM for 1.0 model. This is not ideal for vtubing because most vtubing uses VRM0 anyway.

[@hira1720]

You are having 2 material factory script but i only have 1 .Can you help me

[@ReForgeMode]

If you only have one Material Factory, then you either miss in install UniVRM or the URP shader. If you want to skip this entire process, just download my ready to use project with UniVRM and URP shader already installed: github.com/ReForge-Mode/Unity_VRoid_Template_Projects

[@ren12i]

why my vroid model always face backward ? any tips ?

[@ReForgeMode]

Face backward? You mean the head looks backward? That is very strange. Can you send me the screenshot or the error in our Discord server? Then we can help you better.

It's a bit confusing on MacBook but I feel like I genuinely can't get it to work since our devices are different, is there any solutions for this? (For being a MacBook owner😭)

[@ReForgeMode]

I used Macbook once in my life and I don't have one, so I don't know. Maybe you can try asking ChatGPT for the Macbook equivalent in Unity?

[@eternallyunprepared]

using the // in visual studios did nothing, it still required me to use the linear.

[@ReForgeMode]

Don't forget to save the script. If you're still having problems, just use the template project in the description.

[@pixi_meat]

not sure why but i have so sooo many red warnings and this tutorial didnt work:( i doont know what i did wrongggg if theres anyone i could message pleeeeaseee reply

[@ReForgeMode]

If you're having troubles, you can just download my template project files in the description of the video. Open it up with Unity Hub and just drag in your model.

[@reidon-dv3hr]

Unfortunately following this wasn't helping 😅 it didn't show how to put the model in the actual unity editor. It just skipped to it already being in it. I tried several time's to follow this along but I guess I still just don't understand 🥺 Thanks anyhow.

[@ReForgeMode]

A lot of people have been reporting the same result. Try to download the Unity template instead and open it in Unity: github.com/ReForge-Mode/Unity_VRoid_Template_Projects Also, this problem only appears when you're using URP instead of regular 3D project. If you are just using Unity for vtubing, you shouldn't use URP.

[@Lady.Kianna]

hm. followed instructions, but vroid has no textures. its just magenta.

[@ReForgeMode]

Hmmm, I need more information. Do you have any errors on the console window?

[@Lady.Kianna]

@@ReForgeMode Alraedy fixed, I had VRM not UniVRM. I thought that the 1.x and 0.x coresponded to the VRoid Studio versions not being it's own thing.

[@ReForgeMode]

Good to know! The versions refer to the model version. VRoid 0.x can only export VRM 0, but VRoid 1.x can export both VRM 0 and 1.

[@meepmeep749]

its not working T.T it says import is obsolete

[@ReForgeMode]

How does the error is displayed? Is it a red text or yellow text? If you want to get it to work easier, you can just download my UniVRM project in the description so you don't need to install anything. It's ready to use project.

[@elliott0234]

I never used vroid before, I use unity and booth people are starting to use this "vroid" thing to upload instead.

[@ReForgeMode]

Well, Booth is tied quite closely with VRoid at times. It's one of many sites where users can sell their creation, like hairstyles or others. For game development, VRoid does bypass the painful process of making humanoid characters. From then, you can simply take VRoid characters into Blender to customize it to your liking if you want. That's why I like to use it.

[@anon8139]

My model, sadly, is invisible...

[@ReForgeMode]

Yes, I noticed this is a common complain. I am investigating this right now. Meanwhile, try to download the other version of UniVRM, like 1.x and 0.x

[@anon8139]

@@ReForgeMode Your project works without problems, it might be the unity version not installing everything from URP(or the uniVRM has problems), I switched to the ""newest"" 2022.2.17f1 """LTS""" and it worked normaly with version 108 but once you get into URP(switchting the render pipeline, materials etc), it turns the model invisible but even if I dont touch the model's materials at all, invisible might be harder to fix than common pink textures or so. In the end, they should just inclube URP sooner or later, in the github repo they are working on it, 2 weeks ago, which is nice

[@lukeafterlife442]

Unfortunately I don't have WinRaR and I don't have the money for it. So what then???

[@ReForgeMode]

WinRAR is free to download. It has an unlimited trial duration. But if you don't want to use WinRAR, all of the ZIP files can be extracted by Windows alone. Just right-click and choose extract.

[@neosakura4217]

when using urp,it became pink

[@ReForgeMode]

I recommend not using the UniVRM built-in URP shader selection and follow the direction in this video. Notice when I say URP in the video. If you still can't get it to work, I recommend downloading premade project files in the description. It is already set up so you don't need to install anything.

[@TotoyInsula]

My Character is Transparent,

[@ReForgeMode]

That seems to be a common bug in some Unity versions. You can try to download my project files in the description and import your model into that project instead. Let me know if you need any further help!

[@metinbatuhanozucan5358]

Thank you for video, it was very helpful. You are the person who produces the most content about unity-vroid on youtube. I have a problem in unity. And I can't find the solution. I am using unity 2022 and universal render pipeline with vrm 1.0 plugin. After putting the character in the scene, I add the movement script. But her hair doesn't sway freely like the character model in your video, it looks like it's frozen or they move too fast, it's like flickkering. Do you know any solutions? Please drive.google.com/file/d/13wRHbArOSeda27tujNYY1GBVPZkjq2AI/view?usp=sharing here is the hair video

[@ReForgeMode]

Yes, I do notice this is happening with the new UniVRM v1.x above. I am looking for a solution right now. My temporary fix is to use UniVRM version 0.x instead. You can find it on the same page where you download UniVRM package in Unity.

[@metinbatuhanozucan5358]

​@@ReForgeMode Earlier ı tried version 0.x but it is same. I tried in your example project too. Is there another plugin or package for the solution?

when i import my .vrm model under model it says "create normalized prefab"

That's normal. That "Migrate to VRM 1" option only appears if you're using VRM 0 model on a UniVRM for VRM 1 version.

[@tsujack]

Can't save prefab for import vroid model into unity. I searched whole computer for the prefab and it's not anywhere.

When I refer to the prefab, I'm refering to the VRoid model converted in Unity. Prefab/models should be in your generated folder when you import it in.
