'''Rexouium''' (Latin: ''king caretaker)'', is an open species, and [[Special:MyLanguage/Avatars|avatar]] base originally created by Rezillo Ryker in 2021.

==Traits== 


The Rexouium species' defining traits are:


* Their height (up to 7 feet, or 213 centimeters tall)
* Strong legs
* Long, pointed ears
* Mane-like feathers along the top of the head and the back of the neck
* Tufts of feathers on the limb joints (elbows, wrists, knees)

==Avatar Bases== 


Being an open species, multiple creators have released avatar bases featuring their signature look.


These bases include full facial visemes, have full support for [[Special:MyLanguage/Full-Body Tracking|full body tracking]] and VRChat's native [[Special:MyLanguage/Eye tracking|eye tracking]] out-of-the-box, while some also have support for [[Special:MyLanguage/Face-tracking|face tracking]] and [[Special:MyLanguage/MMD|MMD]] visemes (either built-in or as community add-ons). The bases also typically come with both Desktop and Android platform support, with different versions optimized to meet each platforms mandatory limits.

The original base made by the species' creator, '''Rezillo Ryker''', is commonly considered to be the "default avatar"{{Citation needed}} of [[Special:MyLanguage/Community:Furry culture in VRChat|furries on VRChat]]. Due to the Rexouium's similar canine facial structure and customizability, the avatar can be made to fit many of the most common animal species used by furries and their characters.


As a result, it is among the most widely-used{{Citation needed}} models with a large number of compatible accessories made by the rest of the community. The model also contains a lot of customization blendshapes, and the newer version includes the ability to switch between digitigrade and plantigrade leg styles. With its versatility, avatar creators often use this base to create avatars with a lot of customization options and clothing, which lead to avatars based on this model becoming frequented by furries.


This base is primarily distributed via [[Special:MyLanguage/Gumroad|Gumroad]]<ref>[https://rezilloryker.gumroad.com/l/MYutV 'Rexouium Avatar'] on Gumroad; retrieved September 10, 2024</ref>. The model also comes with a separate, albeit more pricy, license option for commercial use.

This base was created by '''Tosca''', who included both digitigrade and plantigrade leg styles in their avatars as early as 2021<ref>[https://xtosca.gumroad.com/l/ToscaFox Fox Redux avatar by Tosca (Gumroad)]</ref>, including the Rexouium Evolved. The digitigrade rigs were originally created using a method based on Unity bone constraints which was pioneered by DragonSkyRunner<ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/41593602/ (DEPRECIATED) VRChat Real Digitigrade Leg Tutorial by DragonSkyRunner (Furaffinity)]</ref><ref>[https://www.furaffinity.net/view/44035707/ ChilloutVR / VRChat Real Digitigrade Legs Tutorial 2.6]</ref> and more recently Tosca has been using another method by Reign04.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/733205748779319327/1066477815232466984/1283224564075200512 Discord message] by Tosca on their [https://discord.gg/YZmzeEjuB5 official Discord server]</ref> Since VRChat did not support constraints for Android builds on the [[Special:MyLanguage/Platforms|platform]] at the time of the base's release, the digitigrade rig version of the avatar is only usable on the PC platform. This base is also primarily distributed via Gumroad<ref>[https://xtosca.gumroad.com/l/ToscaRex 'Rexouium Evolved'] on Gumroad; retrieved September 10, 2024</ref>.{{Infobox/AvatarType

In 2023, Tosca also published the '''EvoRex HD''' base model, with the main new feature being split [[Special:MyLanguage/UV maps|UVs]], that allow for the use of larger resolution textures on certain parts of the avatar. The EvoRex HD is also sold on Gumroad<ref>[https://xtosca.gumroad.com/l/EvoRexHD 'EvoRex HD'] on Gumroad; retrieved September 10, 2024</ref>, and was provided to the owners of the previous model version for free.


There are no specific restrictions on this base for commercial use, beyond the requirement that model files must not be redistributed by buyers.

The Rezuium, created by '''Hirozu''', provides an alternative to the previous avatars with a different style and built-in face tracking. A separate clothing accessory package is also available. Rezuium is also available on Gumroad<ref>[https://hirozu.gumroad.com/l/Rezuium 'Rezuium' avatar] on Gumroad; retrieved September 10, 2024</ref>.


Commercial use (specifically re-sale of the model itself) is prohibited by the base's terms of service (ToS), but it can be used as part of other content as long as the fact that the model is not included with the purchase is clearly indicated, and that credit must be given to the model author.


Notably, the avatar was featured in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryzSOohnIYE?t=61 HTC's U24 Pro commercial]. The company initially failed to give credit to the base creator, breaching the base's ToS, but later included credit after republishing the commercial.

'''The Great Pug''' is a PC-only bar [[Special:MyLanguage/Worlds|world]] established on February 1, 2017 by ''owlboy'', dedicated to host many patrons and serve all those who come through its doors.

==Layout==

The Great Pug has four floors:

* The first floor hosts a double-sided bar, 11 booths and 5 tables for patrons to sit, as well as two bathrooms, a storage closet, and a door leading out to the back of the building where dumpsters and a shed can be found
* The second floor, named "Night View Hall" has another bar, a stage for people to perform, a billiards table, two long tables and five small tables
* The topmost floor, named "The Roost", can be reached after ascending 6 flights of stairs. The Roost has a fireplace with four seats and a sofa surrounding it, two large round tables behind it, and another set of stairs leading to a loft with 5 beds for people to sleep on

===Non-accessible areas===

The Great Pug also contains many rooms that are fully modelled, but not accessible in normal times, such as:

* The bottom floor under the stairs, unanimously called the "Basement", that is only opened on special occasions, containing some chairs, and leftover signage
* The kitchen
* A room next to the storage closet
* A tiny room behind the bar on the second floor

==Popularity==

As one of the oldest worlds in VRChat, The Great Pug is considered a ''classic'' world. Most people coming to this world are regulars, and as this world is not Quest Compatible, it can be for some a "refuge" world from the very popular instances of other worlds.

==Community==

The Great Pug is a meeting place for many content creators.
We've seen the first tests of "AI" players: players that use Large Language Models (think ChatGPT) to talk back to other players.
Or players who have completely remastered the place by creating avatars that can add more content to the world (decorations, various objects...), making the place their own in a very creative way.
Concerts are sometimes held on the second floor stage.
It's also a meeting place for avatar creators.

==Events==

The Great Pug celebrates two annual holidays, which began in 2017. During these seasonal events, a 'hunt' is promoted, where users will have to find several of an object scattered around The Great Pug.

===Saint Patrick's Day===

Since 2017. Users are encouraged to attend, and have their optimized avatar wear green.

===Halloween===

Since 2017. Users are encouraged to attend, and have their optimized avatars wear a spooky costume.

===Other events===

* Boogie in the Basement - 2023

==Easter eggs==

===The Hunt for Mr. Whiskers and The Dire Pug===

The '''Hunt for Mr. Whiskers''' was an event in April 2018 that sent players throughout various worlds in search of clues to find pieces to a gun that could ultimately destroy Mr. Whiskers. This event included the Great Pug, where resolving a puzzle unlocked a portal to a secret world called "Dire Pug".

The '''Dire Pug''' is a challenge world containing several trials to go through, the reward was a piece of the Mr. Whiskers gun.

In 2020, after the "Udon" update, the Dire Pug died and until this day puzzle and objects interactions have not been restored. (yet, who knows maybe it will reborn again)

===Robogenics Survey===

In 2022, A poster about '''"R Survey"''' was added, located next to the spawn where many posters are displayed. Players could pick up a USB stick object from this poster and use it to unlock a portal leading to the '''Robogenics survey''' world about the future of AIs in VRChat. (The pickup is now unavailable, [https://github.com/owlboy/greatpug-public/issues/186 pending reimplementation])

==Trivia==
[[File:Great Dane Pub ^ Brewing Company Eastside - panoramio.jpg|thumb|A photograph taken of the exterior of "''The Great Dane''" bar's 'East' location]]

* The Great Pug is based on the first floor of a real bar called "''The Great Dane''", located in [[wikipedia:Madison,_Wisconsin|Madison, Wisconsin]], USA. The Great Pug is inspired off of its 'East' location.
* The Great Pug has a quest-compatible sister world called '[https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_1917b43c-7d1b-4734-87db-2956c2069059 The Great Pug - West]', uploaded in 2019
* Footage of The Great Pug can be found in VRChat's [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWLPw4RE9Ig 'Create, Play, Share' trailer].
* The music accompanying The Great Pug is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOcv_vDdRAA 'Together With You', by JD Tundra].
* At one point in time, inside one of the bathroom stalls had a phone number to call. If you dialed the number, an automated recording would play; the caller would be "put on hold", as The Great Pug's music would play while you waited. The line hung up after a while.
