VRChat Avatar Upload Furry VRC Jin Ampwave Fursona Sona Help Tutorial Unity bHaptics Vest Chest OSC

[@PxINKY]

As some may have noticed this tutorial may seem not to work as of 2024 Here is the solution! Firstly grab BHaptics package: github.com/HerpDerpinstine/bHapticsOSC/releases/tag/v2.1.2 Download "bHapticsOSC_v2.1.2_VRCSDK.unitypackage" Import this package into your unity! Next go here: github.com/hai-vr/av3-animator-as-code/releases/tag/V1-2022-04 Download "Source code (zip)" Unzip/Extract the file you should see "av3-animator-as-code-1-2022-04" as the name Drag that folder into your "Assets" tray in unity Wait for it to load ⭐You should now be able to see BHaptics⭐

Thanks! My next VRGoal is the vest.

[@cassowarys]

Bro even showed us where the download button is. Mad respect man

[@WilburWonka]

Would I also have to add this to the quest version of my avatar or would it just work for quest users anyway?

[@elvessel]

Bhpatics OSC component not showing up, I'm assuming it's due to them updating VRChat to the 2022 version of unity? I hope you can make an updated video on this if possible as there isn't any other tutorial as of now unfortunately

[@Drachus]

how loud are the motors? I'm still deciding on whether to buy this or not due to the volume, though I heard you can tape up the zipper.

[@PxINKY]

I do not personally own a vest, so I would not be the one to ask. sorry ^-^

[@aboy7464]

Wow way simpler than I thought

[@Echo256]

This is a great tutorial, although i can't feel when other people interact with the vest and can only feel when i do, any known fixes to this? or am i doing something wrong?

[@PxINKY]

interesting problem, do you have "interact others" turned off in the vrchat settings?

[@biggy1168]

ffs THANK YOU finally, wp +rep

[@rivalun7696]

OMG THANK YOU! I just ordered a suit 2 days agoe and I was curious if it's gonna be easy like: Adding 3 Trackers or I have to do some crazy unity stuff and maybe never make it work.

[@GregDoesYouTube]

I tried to add the component on my avatar but when I try and search it up in the component tab nothing is there, and when I try to drag and drop the "bHapticsOSCIntergration" onto the root of my avatar/in the inspector and I got an error saying "Can't add script component 'bHapticsOSCIntegration' because the script class cannot be found. Make sure that there are no compile errors and that the file name and class name match.", I know this was video was nearly a year ago so its probably outdated or something but do you have a solution?

[@TacoFum]

just had the same issue, I just went to the creator companion and opened my project through that. I hope this helps!

[@TheMarioManiac]

Dumb question but when the bhaptics fx layer is added it doesn’t delete any pre existing fx layers does it?

[@PxINKY]

Shouldnt, i believe it clones it. If it does, just duplicate it before merging

[@TheMarioManiac]

@@PxINKYlate reply but does it also support stuff like someone firing a gun at you or anything else or is it purely touch? I’ve had it for 3 months and while amazing I definitely want to get more out of it.

[@PxINKY]

@@TheMarioManiac since its contact dependant you can only use contacts, aka senders But if you want friends to use weapons or such just tell them to add hand-senders on their props

[@lCuriol]

Whenever I try to add the Bhaptics component I get hit with a "No custom FX layer found" I created the model in Vroid and I'm suspecting that's the problem. But I wanted to know if you had a possible fix for it.

[@PxINKY]

you will need to make an FX layer, assuming your avatar does not come with one you can do this by either duplicating VRChats included one, or making one from scratch

[@Hoshi82]

This seems to be only working for old avatars using Unity 2019. When trying with ne one using 2022 it does not work. bHaptics won't even show up in the components. Would be very appriciated if an updated tutorial is possible.

I have a vest and did everything you did here uploaded the avi, got my vest and in game but nothing is working it seems to not have worked for me for some reason

what application are you using for your vest? are you using OSC?

For some reason it still not work here , it works on " test build " where you don't actually upload avatar , but when it's actually uploaded to vrchat servers .. it doesn't work anymore any idea ? can't find info

[@PxINKY]

Do you have the OSC app for bhaptics? Did you set up the app properly? Do other avatars with bhaptics work but not yours?

[@hattiestkid2634]

I tried following this and everything seemed to go well even it showing up in the animator. But doesnt work in game for unknown reason, I noticed that the blue contact points are there in Unity (Edit: Ive noticed the contact points I just overlooked the fact they arent completely shrinking with the scaling of the vest? Maybe that is the issue? They do get close to the avatar but stop scaling at a certain point that is much too large.)(

[@tjarod11]

You have to download an run an OSC while the game is running. There's another tutorial on KZbin that explains it. I had the same problem.

[@faputa4762]

I Wonder If this will also Work with shockwave...

[@TBro09]

Thanks for the tutorial but quick question. If I already got an avatar that Pc and Quest compatible will this mess with the Quest limitations at all?

[@PxINKY]

it will, i may come out with a quest compatible version if i can find it tho i believe it uses different set up

[@TBro09]

@@PxINKY thanks for the reply! Believe I got it to work, but I’ll test it out once I get the vest. I wanted to get it all set up before I actually bought it to make sure it worked.

[@InkwizycjaHiszpanska]

Is it true that haptics will always make avatars very poor? I was about to upload this on good avatar so my friend would finally join me on world that have performance limitation, but then i heard that i doesn't matter which avatar i use it wont help.

[@PxINKY]

I think its because of all the detector objects (contact recievers) that are placed on your avatar VRChat has some wacky restrictions

[@roldy6483]

if you remove some conctact point go in the vest prefab,remove self keep others and then you can remove some of the others from side so it will be poor and you can party in it :D i hope i could help

[@WelshDrag]

Is there a way like world map guns or objects can touch them?

[@PxINKY]

world constraints + some funny unity magic For stuff like that id suggest talking with the creator and friend of mine "Liindy"

[@lordcheese7462]

Tried extracting but it keeps preventing me from doing so. Something about an error and that path too long

[@PxINKY]

try storing your project closer to your main drive / making project names shorter

[@cecoly6202]

I don't know if anyone will see this but whenever I upload it the back side is always flipped on the back vest, so if right shoulder is tapped, left shoulder activates, and if left shoulder is tapped, right shoulder activates, does anyone know what went wrong for me? ;_;

[@PxINKY]

You can try setting the injected pre-fab to be flipped (change the scale axis by -1)

[@cecoly6202]

Thanks! I, okay I'll be honest I couldn't figure out how to do that ;w; but! I figured out they can be manually moved into there proper places, so with some effort it SHOULD work, maybe.

[@sirenthemanokit9945]

when i go to add the part in the inspector it dopes not show up ij followed everything it does not work

[@user-nw4su6mc3x]

when i go add component it doesnt show up. there is no bhaptics component

[@cecoly6202]

its a bit finicky, go back and carefully make sure you get the av3 zip file and extract the file content into the projects asset folder, along with the unity package, that should fix it

[@gamecrusher24]

Ok SO. I have done everything that every tutorial has told me I set up the OSC and the colliders for it in Unity correctly. The problem is that the colliders dont show up after I updated the avatar in vrchat. When I try to use another compatible avatar for it, It shows the colliders, it shows that they are working in vrchat but it still doesn't go through to the vest. Any idea how I can fix this?
