You may customize your controls in the Settings menu. Depending on the platform you are using VRChat on, you may be able to customize controls further by using the settings menu for your device.

The Settings menu also documents the button mappings for the device you’re currently using.

== VR Controls ==
VRChat officially supports the following headsets and their corresponding control schemes.

* Meta Quest headsets
** Meta Quest 2
** Meta Quest 3
** Meta Quest Pro
* HTC Vive XR Elite
* Pico 4

In addition, VRChat supports these headsets in PCVR mode, where your headset is connected to a Windows gaming PC.

* All SteamVR-compatible headsets, including (but not limited to)
** Valve Index
** HTC Vive series
** Bigscreen Beyond
** Tethered Pimax HMDs
** Any Steam Link compatible HMD (Meta Quest series)
** Any Virtual Desktop compatible HMD
** Most ALVR compatible HMDs

On PC, we also support gamepad input via Steam’s Input manager.

=== Controller Buttons ===
Most VR controllers are laid out similarly. Each controller has a joystick and two main buttons, a system button, a trigger, and a grip button.

== Hand Tracking ==
There is a [https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_8bcf07ab-5f8f-40cb-9289-b2eaad15ab98 tutorial world] to learn hand tracking in a kinesthetic environment!

To use hand tracking, just put down your controllers and put your hands out so the Quest hand tracking system kicks in. Of course, make sure you have the system enabled in the Quest settings.

To move around the world, hold your left hand up, palm facing your face. Touch your middle finger to your thumb in a “pinch” motion, and a small blue sphere will appear. While still pinching, move your fingers away from that sphere, and you'll move in that direction!

To turn left and right, do the same motion with your middle finger to your thumb, but with your right hand. While still pinching, move your fingers left or right. You'll turn!

You can turn with Comfort Turning (snap turning) on or off. If you have Comfort Turning on, you'll need to move your pinched finger “past” the turn point each time you turn. It might be easier to use this locomotion method with Comfort Turning disabled in your settings.

Pull up your VRChat Quick Menu by “pinching” your index finger and your thumb on your left hand. This is a “default” Oculus gesture, you'll see a little menu icon float over your hand and “fill up” as you long-pinch. To interact with the UI, point at it with your hand, and select things by pinching your index and thumb together.

You can mute yourself by holding your thumb and ring finger together for a moment on your left hand.

== Desktop Controls ==
You can play VRChat using a keyboard and mouse.

Movement is handled via the standard FPS “WASD” setup. Your mouse adjusts your view position. Your head points in the direction you’re looking.

* Use left shift to control your left hand, use right shift to control your right hand.

† On a standard English US QWERTY layout keyboard, “backtick” is the key in the top left, next to the <code>1</code> key. It shares a key with the tilde (<code>~</code>) character.

Debug options are disabled unless you launch VRChat with the <code>--enable-debug-gui</code> launch option.

== Mobile Controls ==
On the left side of the screen is a virtual joystick, which will move your avatar around. Tapping and dragging on the screen will move your point of view. Double tapping and holding anywhere on the screen will let you walk around and move your viewpoint simultaneously.

The right side of the screen has buttons for jumping, picking up items, and interacting with the world. Holding down the button will allow for further options, such as an action menu, or crouching.

Tapping on a player or a portal will instantly bring up a secondary [[Menus|menu]].

== Steam Deck Controls ==

=== Why can't I upload content yet? ===
You must obtain at least “New User” [[Trust Rank]] in our Trust and Safety system in order to upload content. You can get this by just spending a few hours in VRChat, hop some worlds, and make some friends. Give it some time and you'll get a notification that you're able to upload content.

You must have a VRChat account to upload content. You can't use a Steam, Oculus, Google, or Viveport account to upload content like worlds or avatars.

=== Why does my name have a bunch of letters or numbers after it? ===
If your name looks like this in-app:
VRChat Player a1bf
or something similar, you are using what we call a “platform account.” You created your account using a Steam, Oculus, Google, or Viveport account.

You can migrate over to a canonical VRChat account by following the process detailed [https://help.vrchat.com/hc/en-us/articles/360062659053-I-want-to-turn-my-platform-account-through-Steam-Meta-Pico-or-Viveport-into-a-VRChat-account here].

=== I have a platform (Steam, Oculus, etc) account. How do I move over to a VRChat account? ===
If you have a Steam or Oculus account, you can easily “convert” your account into a VRChat account. Check out [https://help.vrchat.com/hc/en-us/articles/360062659053-I-want-to-turn-my-platform-account-through-Steam-Meta-Pico-or-Viveport-into-a-VRChat-account this page] to see the process.

Ensure the account you're merging into is a blank, brand-new VRChat account. If you have '''any''' saved Favorites or other content on your new VRChat account, your platform account info will not transfer over!

=== How can I make my own custom avatar? ===
Glad you asked! VRChat has a Unity Software Development Kit (SDK) that allows you to create content for VRChat, including avatars.

To get started, check out [https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/creating-your-first-avatar/ Creating Your First Avatar] in the Creator Documentation.

In addition, there are a large number of tutorials created by our community available on YouTube.

=== Can I create my own world? ===
Yes, using our Unity SDK you can create your own world. It will start off as a private world, meaning you can only bring people in by opening up a portal or through inviting friends. Once you are ready to make the world public, you first have to go through the process of submitting your world to the Community Labs.

=== How can I access my world? ===
Once you have created and uploaded your world using the SDK, you will find the world under the Mine tab in the World Menu.

=== I'm having a problem with the application. ===
We're sorry to hear that! We want to help you figure it out. Check out our [https://help.vrchat.com/hc/en-us Knowledgebase] and see if you can find a solution there. If not, please contact our Support team by creating a ticket [https://vrch.at/support here].

=== What is the VRChat SDK? ===
The [https://creators.vrchat.com/sdk/ VRChat SDK] enables users to create interactive worlds and avatars for VRChat using Unity3D. Most Unity tools, including lighting, nav meshes, particles, animations, and other standard Unity features, work in VRChat.

You must install the SDK using the [https://vcc.docs.vrchat.com/ VRChat Creator Companion]. This official application will help you install the correct version of Unity, maintain your projects, and install many helpful packages from both VRChat and the VRChat community.

=== I'm having problems with VRChat! ===
Head on over to [https://help.vrchat.com/ help.vrchat.com], which is where we provide technical support documentation.

You can also contact our Support team [https://vrch.at/support here].

= VRChat Moderation =

=== Terms Of Service ===
VRChat's process for internal moderation is private, and results for moderation action is based on [https://hello.vrchat.com/legal VRChat's Terms of Service], last revised November 22, 2023.

Most moderation action is interpreted and judged accordingly to this document, making it the absolute frame for reference regarding all content and behavior that is expected on the platform.

=== Community Guidelines ===
VRChat's [https://hello.vrchat.com/community-guidelines Community Guidelines] demonstrate a more casual interpretation of VRChat's Terms of Service, and extends upon more scenarios that aren't explained by the Terms of Service. These guidelines provide excellent resources for navigating your personal experience on the platform.

This document presents details about sections that will be described further.

=== Creator Guidelines ===
The [https://hello.vrchat.com/creator-guidelines Creator Guidelines] for VRChat provide a great level of detail regarding [[Worlds|World]] and [[Avatars|Avatar]] content, as well as extending guidelines to VRChat users who make video content for platforms such as YouTube, and Twitch.

This suite of guidelines is precise on what is allowed and what is not. This also includes the introduction of content warnings for the various mediums that exists within VRChat.

= Personal Safety =
Safety is an important part of the VRChat experience. Being in the wild requires protection depending on the place you are. Those options helps keep everyone's experience to be as convenient as possible. It also lets you customize and go beyond if required.

For more details, check out the official docs.

[https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrchat-safety-and-trust-system VRChat Safety and Trust System]

=== Safety Settings ===
Some advanced safety settings can be configured in the '''Settings section'''

Please refer to the [[Settings|Settings Menu Section]]

=== Safety Shield ===
The Safety Shield is the first line of protection when meeting new players and their avatars. It will specifically enable or disable certain features from the player or their avatar based on the '''Trust Rank'''.

Here are an exhaustive list of the options available for customization.

==== Maximum Safety ====
This option is the safest one and will only allow your friends to showcase all of the features of VRChat. This preset is perfect when you are not familiar with the game or that you are in a public space that you don't know.

==== No Safety ====
Use this preset with '''caution''' as it will disable any safety feature no matter the VRChat Trust rank. Make sure that you are in a safe environment that you are familiar with before using such feature.

==== Custom Safety ====
If you want to, you are able to setup your own safety settings depending on the feature that you want to enable or if you want to disable a feature completely.
[[File:Safemode.png|thumb]]

=== Safe Mode ===
In the case of an emergency, if you feel overwhelmed, or if VRChat is lagging, an emergency '''Safe Mode''' button is accessible at any time on the Quick Menu. This feature will automatically disable most avatars, users' voices, and anything that can potentially cause lag, or be the source of the emergency situation. Performance for VRChat should return to a usable state while in Safe Mode. Friends are not affected by Safe Mode.

To exit Safe Mode, simply open the Quick Menu and click the Safe Mode button again. Another alternative to using Safe Mode, is by clicking the '''Go Home''' button to leave the instance.

= Moderation and Reporting =
When the situation shifts into something non manageable, you sometimes have to take a step further and take a moderation action.

=== Muting a User ===
If a user is being annoying or too loud, you can select that user to either lower their microphone volume or mute them entirely.

=== Blocking a User ===
If the user keeps being annoying, you can select that user and block them entirely.

This user will then be blocked and you won't be able to see the user and they will not be able to see you anymore.

=== Reporting a User ===
If you think necessary, you can report the user by selecting them (do it before blocking them), and report them for a specific behavior.

Don't underestimate your report, because this is the method that raises the case to the VRChat moderation team so they can take action, up to ban the account of the user.

=== Blocking an Avatar ===
If it is the avatar that is an annoyance to you, you can block the avatar itself.

This will block by the avatar's ID, making that you won't be able to see that same avatar, even if it is used by another user.

=== Reporting an Avatar ===
You can also report an avatar if you believe it breaks the Guidelines of VRChat.

You can also report this same avatar if it doesn't properly declares its '''gating options'''.

=== Report a Group ===
Groups are user created, making them also possibly breaking VRChat Rules.

If that's the case, you can also report a Group for proper actions being taken.

=== Report a World ===
If a world is breaking VRChat rules, you also want to report them to the VRChat team for an action to be taken.

=== Instance Moderation ===
World instances are specific to the person creating them.

If an instance is created by a user, they become the moderator of that instance. If a group create an instance, the rules of the group applies as the group moderates the instance.

It's the moderation separation that comes from the VRChat Guidelines.

Please check the [[Worlds|Instance Moderation]] section for more details.

VRChat makes use of several menu types that can be used to interact with different aspects of the platform. Most notably the [[Quick Menu]], the [[Main Menu]] and the [[Action Menu]]. While these menus do serve distinct purposes and offer exclusive features, they often share the same functions and settings, merely presented in different formats better suited for different contexts.

== Quick Menu ==
View more detailed information on the [[Quick Menu]] article.

The [[Quick Menu]] contains options and actions a user may want to interact with often. The features found in the [[Quick Menu]] are generally a condensed version of their counterparts in the [[Main Menu]], with a few exceptions. Some examples of features exclusive to the [[Quick Menu]] are a button to visit your Home World, a button to respawn, the Here tab, and more.

The Quick Menu may colloquially be referred to as the “Small Menu” by VRChat users.

== Main Menu ==
View more detailed information on the [[Main Menu]] article.

The Main Menu can be revealed by 'expanding' the [[Quick Menu]]. It offers a more robust collection of tabs with in-depth information about VRChat systems like [[Worlds]], [[Avatars]], [[Groups]], etc. Some examples of features exclusive to the [[Main Menu]] are browsing worlds, a full suite of settings, searching for users and content, and more.

The [[Main Menu]] may colloquially be referred to as the “Big Menu” by VRChat users.

== Action Menu ==
View more detailed information on the [[Action Menu]] article.

The [[Action Menu]] houses a variety of actions generally intended to be quickly used during social interaction. Options present themselves as segments in circular, nested menus, selected by inputting a flick in the direction of the segment you wish to interact with. The [[Action Menu]] is primarily used for activating features built in to avatars such as emotes within the Expressions category, however it also features categories for sending Emoji, toggling basic tools like the Personal Mirror, and an Options category for various settings.

The [[Action Menu]] may colloquially be referred to as the “Radial Menu” or “Circle Menu” by VRChat users.

Photos are rectangular images that can be equipped to Profiles and Groups, as well as attached to notifications sent to other users.

When equipped to your profile, the photo is displayed alongside your username in Friend Locations and on your profile, replacing the thumbnail of the avatar you currently have equipped.

When equipped to a group, the photo acts as the group's banner.

Photos can be attached to invites, invite requests and replies. Additionally, rather than using an existing photo from the Gallery, VRChat+ users may take and attach a new photo using the camera that is not saved to the Gallery.

Groups is a social feature aimed towards forming communities within VRChat. Creating a group allows other users to join it, typically to find like-minded people or participate in events within Group Instances. Members of a group may choose to represent it, advertising the group's banner on their nameplate and profile. The Groups feature was officially released on [https://hello.vrchat.com/blog/vrchat-groups November 30th, 2022].

== Joining a Group ==
To join a group, you must first navigate to the group's page. Users can be in up to 100 different Groups at a time, or up to 200 with an active [[Vrchat+|VRChat+]] subscription. To join a group, you can either find one through the Search tab or Group tab; join a group by looking at another user's list of groups they are publicly displaying on their profile or by clicking on specific promotional posters located in worlds.

Once you are in a group, you are able to join any active Group instances via the Instances tab on the group's page. All active Group instances for every joined group are amassed in the Group Activity tab. The Group Activity tab can also be found in the Main Menu's Social page.

=== Representing ===
Representing a group displays the group's name and banner on the user's nameplate and profile. Users may represent one group at a time.

=== Membership Visibility ===
A member of a group may choose to prevent their membership from showing on their profile in the list of joined groups. Do note that this setting can be bypassed by mutual group members if their group permissions allow for viewing members of the group.

'''''TODO''': this last bit about bypassing visibility may need fact checking. I'm pretty sure this is the case but I can't say with 100% certainty.'' — ''big 2024/05/31 11:15 UTC''
{| class="wikitable"
!Visible
|The group is shown on your profile for everyone.
|-
!Friends Only
|The group is only shown on your profile to your friends.
|-
!Hidden
|The group is hidden from your profile
|}

== Creating a Group ==
To create a group, a user must first have an active [[VRChat+]] subscription. Maintaining the [[VRChat+]] subscription is not necessary for retaining group ownership. An active [[VRChat+]] subscription is required to change icons, banners and edit the group's gallery using the [[VRChat+]] Gallery, as well as transferring ownership of the group to another user. Currently, creating a group must be done via the [https://vrchat.com/home/groups VRChat website]. A user can own a maximum of 5 groups, of which a maximum of 100,000 members can join each group.

=== Joinability and Visibility ===
When creating a group, an onboarding process presents the creator with a few privacy options.

The '''joinability''' of a group determines any given user's ability to join the group. This setting can be changed later.
{| class="wikitable"
!Free Join
|Anyone can join the group freely.
|-
!Request to Join
|New members must request to join the group.
|-
!Invite-Only
|Those with the right permissions may invite new members to the group.
|}
The '''visibility''' of a group determines whether or not the group can be represented or displayed on a member's profile. This setting cannot be changed later.
{| class="wikitable"
!Public
|Members can choose to advertise the group on their profile.
|-
!Private
|The group cannot be advertised or displayed by members.
|}

=== Group Roles ===
'''TODO:''' roles text describing the 'role presets' provided as well as other group moderation things? — ''big 2024/05/31 19:42 UTC''

== Group Instances ==
The owner of a group and those with the correct permissions may create Group instances. There are three tiers of Group instances.
{| class="wikitable"
!Group
|Only members of a group (or certain roles within the group if specified) can join the instance.
|-
!Group+
|Any friend of a user in the instance can join. Group membership is not required to join the instance.
|-
!Group Public
|A publicly listed instance hosted by a group to which anyone can join. Group membership is not required to join the instance.
|}
Group instances are often '''moderated by the group hosting the instance'''. The group's owner and those given moderation powers through role permissions may warn, mute, kick or ban a user within the instance. Banning a user from a group permanently prevents them from joining any Group instances made by the group, as well as joining the group itself.

=== Group Instance Queues ===
Group instances are also great for managing events with a high amount of people. For that situation, the '''VRChat Group Queues''' option will setup a waiting queue to process joining requests when the instance max capacity is reached. When you join the queue for an instance, you will be placed in and will receive a invite request when a slot becomes available. Once the request is received on your side, you have one minute to join the instance before your slot is given to the next person.

Group instances are often '''moderated by the group hosting the instance'''. The group's owner and those given moderation powers through role permissions may warn, mute, kick or ban a user within the instance. Banning a user from a group permanently prevents them from joining any Group instances made by the group, as well as joining the group itself.

=== Group Instance Queues ===
Group instances are also great for managing events with a high amount of people. For that situation, the '''VRChat Group Queues''' option will setup a waiting queue to process joining requests when the instance max capacity is reached. When you join the queue for an instance, you will be placed in and will receive a invite request when a slot becomes available. Once the request is received on your side, you have one minute to join the instance before your slot is given to the next person.

VRChat comes with a whole host of social tools for users. Such as friends, invites, notes, and more!

== Friending ==
Friending a user on VRChat will send them a request they can either accept or decline. When added as a friend, a user can send invites to their instance to friends or request to join a friend's instance.

Booping is an [https://ask.vrchat.com/t/developer-update-30-may-2024/24821 upcoming social feature] allowing friends to send “boops” to each other. This can be attached with any emoji, including custom ones using VRC+. When the recipient of a boop opens their notifications, they'll be subject to a “Boop Explosion,” a blast of the emoji from the boop! Boop recipients will also receive a push notification from the VRChat app on mobile devices. Boops can only be sent to friends.

== Favorite Friend ==
Like with avatars and worlds, you can favorite a friend to add them to a list of people.

'''''TODO''': I feel like favoriting should be it's own page linked to since it's a much vaster feature? Topic of discussion probably.'' — ''TrixxedHeart 2024/05/30 19:16 UTC''

== Notes ==
Notes are snippets of information you can attach to a user that only you can see, this can be used for anything. An example of the kind of information you could put in may be how you met a user, names they go by, or their username on other platforms.

= Your Own Profile =
On your own profile you can display a myriad of information, such as your status, description, languages you speak, social links, and the group you represent!

= What are avatars =
Avatars are the character models used to represent yourself and others inside of VRChat.

They are how people will see and interact with you in-game. Avatars are a fun way to express your personality or try out a new one.

The VRChat community has created a wide variety of avatars in different styles and aesthetics. Try exploring the Avatar Worlds category in the Worlds tab to find one that suits you best!

== How to change avatars ==
When you first join the game, you will be in the Default Robot avatar and shown a variety of official VRChat avatars that you can click on, but these are not the only options available.

=== Featured List ===
VRChat provides a list of featured public avatars. They are optimized and customized to fit multiple styles of characters. You can try them on by going to the Avatar section, then to Public.

These avatars come from the [https://hello.vrchat.com/blog/avatars-everyone-jam Avatars For Everyone Jam] that happened in March 2023.

Prior to that time, some avatars were available and provided by some other VRChat creators. //''This section needs more details//''

Once you have found an avatar that you want to use, select it and confirm with the “Change into Avatar” button.

=== Cloning ===
When you go around VRChat, you may find someone with a fun avatar that you would want to get for yourself. This is when you want to “Clone” the other user's avatar.

To do so, select the other user and use the “Clone avatar” Button.

If the button isn't available that can either mean that the user disabled the cloning feature or that the avatar they are using is private. This is the case when the avatar was specifically uploaded to their account.

=== Pedestals and Avatar Worlds ===
You can also find avatars in the worlds you are visiting.

These avatars are shown on pedestals with a preview of them that you can click to clone.

Avatar pedestals can be found while exploring worlds in the game. You can also create your own pedestals when making your own world.

== Platform compatibility ==
VRChat avatars are built differently for PC than for Mobile. This mean that the avatars are '''built for a specific platform''', and so depending on what device you are using to play the game, you may not always be able to use or see some avatars. Those differences are mostly due to Quest and Android limitations. You can find more details in the following resources.

* [https://creators.vrchat.com/platforms/android/quest-content-limitations/ Quest Content Limitations]
* [https://creators.vrchat.com/platforms/android/android-best-practices/ Android Best Practices]

Creators can configure an avatar to be compatible with multiple platforms by uploading multiple versions of the same avatar ID1).

If an avatar can't be shown to the user, it will first try to display an Imposter2) of that avatar. If no imposter has been generated, the user will instead be displayed as a fallback avatar.

Fallback avatars can be changed in the Avatar menu.

== Performance ranking ==
Avatars are ranked by performance thresholds. They go from Very Poor, to Poor, to Medium, to Good, to Excellent.

You can find more details on the official documentation at [https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/avatar-performance-ranking-system/ Avatar Performance Ranking System]

Those performance ranks are determined by VRChat and may be subject to change.

== Creating/uploading avatars ==
You can customize your experience by uploading your own content as long as it follows VRChat TOS.

To do so you first need to have the rank of '''New User''', then you will need the various tools that won't be described in this section.

A more '''detailed guide''' on what you can do is available on the Creators docs at [https://creators.vrchat.com/avatars/creating-your-first-avatar/ Creating Your First Avatar]

Once you have an uploaded avatar, you will be able to find them in the “Uploaded” section of your avatar list.
