Awatary
Awatary to modele reprezentujące użytkowników w VRChat. Są one głównym sposobem interakcji i wyrażania siebie przez użytkowników w wirtualnej rzeczywistości. Dzięki awatarom użytkownicy mogą odzwierciedlać swoje osobowości, wchodzić w interakcje ze światami lub odkrywać nowe tożsamości na kreatywne i immersyjne sposoby. Awatary mogą prezentować się w przeróżnych formach, a społeczność VRChat opracowała szeroką ich gamę, o unikalnych stylach i estetykach. To od osobistych upodobań użytkownika zależy, który awatar najbardziej mu odpowiada lub czy nie chce stworzyć swojego własnego przy użyciu VRChat SDK.
Zmienianie awatarów
Kiedy użytkownik po raz pierwszy dołącza do VRChatu, posiada domyślny awatar Robota. Prezentowany jest mu również zbiór oficjalnych awatarów VRChatu, oferujących różne postacie do wyboru. Te startowe opcje stanowią jednak tylko ułamek dostępnych awatarów.
Wyróżnione awatary
VRChat zapewnia wyselekcjonowaną listę wyróżnionych publicznych awatarów, które są zoptymalizowane pod kątem wydajności i przemyślane tak, aby zaspokoić różne style i preferencje. Użytkownicy mogą przeglądać i wypróbować te awatary w dowolnym momencie, przechodząc do strony "Awatary" w Menu Głównym i wybierając zakładkę "Publiczne" lub "Stare".
Once you have found an avatar that you want to use, select it and confirm with the "Change into Avatar" button.
Cloning
Users have the option to clone avatars directly from other users. This feature allows users to adopt the same avatar they see another user wearing by selecting the user and utilizing the "Clone Avatar" button within the Quick Menu. If this option is unavailable, it indicates that the other user has disabled the cloning feature, or is using an avatar marked as private that was specifically uploaded to their account.
Favoriting
Users can favorite avatars to save them for later. Favorited avatars will appear in the "favorites" row on the avatar page. Each row can hold up to 50 avatars. With an active VRChat+ subscription, you can access 5 additional avatar rows.
There are multiple ways to favorite an avatar. If you’re wearing the avatar you want to favorite, go to the avatars page and click the "Favorite Avatar" button in the bottom right corner, below the avatar preview. If someone else is wearing an avatar you want to favorite, select the user and press the "Favorite Avatar" button in the quick menu.
Pedestals and avatar worlds
Avatars can also be discovered on avatar pedestals. These are typically found within worlds under the "Avatar Worlds" category. These pedestals display previews of avatars, which users can interact with to clone from.
Platform compatibility
See also Platforms for more detailed information.
VRChat avatars are designed differently for PC and mobile platforms, primarily due to the limitations of devices like the Oculus Quest, Android, and iOS systems. Consequently, some avatars may not be viewable or usable on all devices. Detailed information on these limitations can be found in the following resources:
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 Impostor2) of that avatar. If no impostor has been generated, the user will instead be displayed as a Fallback avatar.
The user's Fallback avatar 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
. This classification helps users understand the performance impact of their avatars on the overall VRChat experience. Examples of things that influence avatar performance rankings include mesh polygon count, material count, texture resolution, animator complexity; and avatar components such as PhysBones or constraints.
You can find more details on the official documentation at Avatar Performance Ranking System.
Creating and uploading
Users can enhance their VRChat experience by creating and uploading custom avatars, provided they comply with VRChat's Terms of Service. To upload an avatar, users must first attain the rank of "New User" and acquire the necessary tools, such as the recommended version of Unity and the VRChat SDK.
A more detailed guide on what you can do with the SDK is available on the Creators docs at 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.
