A new knowledge sharing devlog has been published, "Nochat".

In the Nochat research page, you can read about my attempts to run VRChat prefabs with the Unity Editor in VR, without the VRChat SDK installed.

  • When the Editor is paused, continue rendering in the HMD as if it was not paused.
  • This allows the user to continue viewing the scene in VR while objects are frozen in place (i.e. physically simulated hair).

• Add language selector.
• Add machine-translated Japanese localization file, translated using ChatGPT.

Versions 1.1.0 and 1.1.1 contain errors.

The above changes have been contributed by mekanyanko (めかにゃんこ) (first contribution).

I am releasing LetMeSee (LMS), a tool that lets you see your content in VR, with the Unity Editor in Edit Mode.

The Scene tab is used as the camera viewpoint. You can use this to fly through avatars and worlds.

This product is released for free.

Hello,

In February 2022, I had released Animator As Code version 0 (V0).

During 2023, I had started to move towards Animator As Code to version 1 (V1), in order to do the following breaking changes:

• Pull major contributions from @galister which:
  • Adds support for sub-state machines, which is important because it enables the creation of states that evaluate multiple transitions within one frame, which is not possible to do without sub-state machines (with one exception).
    • This trait is already extensively used in ComboGestureExpressions V2 and above.
  • Share functionality of state and sub-state machines.
  • Share functionality of Int and Float parameters together.
• Make it usable in non-VRChat avatar projects.
  • VRChat-related functionality is now exposed as extension functions in a separate package.
  • Also, separate destructive functions and non-destructive functions.
  • Since this no longer requires a VRChat project, this also means it may now be usable in VRChat world projects.
• Make it more usable in non-destructive components.
  • It is already in use in Prefabulous and Vixen.
• Move to packages, for distribution using VCC (and now, ALCOM).

My own projects, such as ComboGestureExpressions V3, Vixen, and Prefabulous for VRChat, already use Animator As Code V1.

The project has stalled for long enough, I think it's finally time to give it the last push for release.

V0 and V1 can be installed in the same project​

One of the goals of Animator As Code V1 is to preserve the ability for V0 and V1 to be installed in the same project, as Animator As Code V0 is currently being used in the wild.

Therefore, installing Animator As Code V1 will not interfere with Animator As Code V0.

Even then, Animator As Code V0 and V1 are almost identical in syntax, so migrating from V0 and V1 should not be a challenge.

There may be some breaking changes during the beta​

Animator As Code V1 will be entering a beta phase before release, which should ideally last a month.

Beta versions of Animator As Code V1 will only be available as pre-release packages, and they may contain breaking changes between two beta versions.

The objective of the Beta is to capture the last inconsistencies in the API, including naming conventions, method signatures, exposed functions and classes, public fields vs public properties, etc. It will also be to complete the documentation, both on this site, and inline documentation.

After Animator As Code V1 comes out of beta in 1.1.0, there should not be any more breaking changes.

Features​

• As mentioned before, you can create sub-state machines.
• It is now possible to build Unity BlendTree assets using a fluent interface.
• Animator As Code for VRChat supports for VRCAnimatorPlayAudio through the AacFlState.Audio(AudioSource or string, ...) function, which takes a lambda expression as a parameter.
• As VRCAvatarParameterDriver has evolved over the years, you can now build multiple VRCAvatarParameterDriver behaviours on the same state through the AacFlState.Driving(...) function, which takes a lambda expression as a parameter.

Fix Assign UV Tile "Entire Mesh" no longer fails to process meshes that were set to EditorOnly.

Hide all Prefabulous icons from the scene in Unity 2022 or above.

This update tries to improve Lightbox Viewer speed in Edit mode, especially in avatar setups where there may be a lot of non-destructive components which have code that runs when that component is destroyed.

There are no speed improvements in Play mode.

• Allow installation with VRChat Avatars SDK 3.6.x

• Allow installation with VRChat Avatars SDK 3.6.x
• Remove the Beta label.
• Attempt to fix "The script class couldn't be found" when adding curve keys.

I have published Chillaxins, an experimental package for ChilloutVR users.

Chillaxins is a Unity Editor package that lets you use non-destructive tools on ChilloutVR avatars, and Warudo character mods.

Using this, you can use some of my products in ChilloutVR, like ⭐ Starmesh, ⭐ FaceTra Shape Creator, and Prefabulous Universal.

I am releasing Prefabulous V2. This update makes it so Prefabulous components can be used in other social VR platforms, apps, and VTubing apps. VRChat is no longer required.

Users who use the VCC/ALCOM package manager will not need to take special actions to update to V2. If you don't use VCC/ALCOM, see below.

Prefabulous has been split into two packages, and I am introducing a new package:

• Prefabulous Universal contains platform-agnostic components.
• Prefabulous for VRChat contains components that are specific to VRChat.
• Prefabulous for VRM and VTubing is a new package that contains VRM-specific components.

Updating from V1 to V2 for users who don't use VCC​

If you don't use VCC, you will need to follow special upgrade instructions from V1 to V2:

• If you use VCC/ALCOM, do not do this.
• Open Unity.
• Create a new empty scene.
• Remove the Prefabulous package.
• Add the new Prefabulous Universal package.
• Add the new Prefabulous for VRChat package.

☀️ New component: Add ARKit to BlendShapeAvatar​

A new component, Add ARKit to BlendShapeAvatar, has been added to Prefabulous for VRM.

This component automatically links all blendshapes found in your meshes as ARKit-named BlendShapeClips for use by VRM apps.

API Changes​

Prefabulous is not meant to have any public API, but there has been changes that could affect other plugins.

In essence:

• NDMF plugin qualified names have been changed,
• class names have been changed,
• namespaces have been changed,
• assembly definitions have been changed,
• internal classes have been changed.

Prefabulous Universal name changes​

• Component namespace: Prefabulous.Universal.Common.Runtime

Prefabulous for VRChat name changes​

• Component namespace: Prefabulous.VRC.Runtime

Prefabulous for VRM and VTubing name changes​

• Component namespace: Prefabulous.VRM.Runtime
