I keep hearing about this new VR application and I look forward to try it. This is the first time I have seen on how quick and easy it is to import a model while in game. Thank you for sharing I hope this video grabs more attention so other folks can try this out.
I tried Neos a while ago when I saw that video that Thrillseeker did on it. I was excited by the ideas behind it but all the dev / company drama kinda kept me from diving on it. I am really excited about Resonite, going to jump in after work today.
That's because metallic maps mean a different thing here. We use them for changing how reflections look then masking out smoothness or metallic (I.e. you can put a reflection sphere texture in there for various effects). I'm not 100% sure on this, but if you use the dev tool and open your context menu, then click create new -> material -> PBS -> PBS splatmat (I forget the name of the material but something like that) and then you can place that material on the avatar the same way you put texture on a material (I.e. poke the orb through the material slot and click). That one should have a metallic or smoothness *mask* which is probably what you're looking for. I could be wrong, though, as I'm a little rusty with my materials, so I'd recommend asking in the discord in the description if that doesn't work
is there a way to set up facial expressions? i have not yet been in the game (currently downloading it lol) and im well seasoned in vrchat creation and figured i would try to bring in a simple model for my first main and i cant find anything on facial expressions and how they work in resonite. to be fair i will probably just end up asking someone and hope theyre kind enough to teach me but id still love to know ! awesome tutorial i will def be using this as a guide later
while it is neat to work on avatars ingame I wish there was also a way to work on them outside of the game, with a UI built for it, and then import that into the game, or something. Like some kind of a "resonite engine" where you can program things outside of the game, apply textures and all that, then just import the whole resonite avatar or item all at once.
There was talk from the devs of adding a DCC link (that might not be the right name, but something like that) so people could link any game engine (Unity, Godot, etc) into Resonite to build things as an option. That probably won't come for a while, tho unfortunately. In the meantime desktop isn't bad for building things in general with free cam and snapping to inspectors and flux, but it's not perfect either. I have a tutorial for desktop free cam on my channel, just the UI is old as it was made for Neos, but here's a new one someone else made if you're interested th-cam.com/video/Erg8EbHHjoY/w-d-xo.html
Is it also possible to import materials? In the 3D model I have, the material for the body part has a fur shader with shell based fur. Because I haven't found a way to import something like that yet
Not currently, you'd have to recreate them using the ingame material / shaders. You can make them using the dev tip, opening your context menu with the hand the dev tip is equipped to, select create new then materials. In your case you would probably want xiexie toon under pbs materials, or fur material but you'd need a noise texture and that one isn't cell shaded. Then just poke the orb through the material slot to apply it (similar to textures), or drag and drop from the top of the material inspector. If you use the material tip you can also grab the slot you want to convert the materials on, open your context menu with the slot still held so it shows its name, and click convert all. Then just select the material you want.
@Killertamagotchi Oh, in that case, the closest you could get is the fur material. It still needs to be reworked (a lot of the materials do), but you could get a similar look to that shader. It does take some work to get it working correctly, I was planning on making some material tutorials, but I won't have time this week.
Everything should still work the same, just drag and drop into the Resonite window when importing stuff. There is also freecam that can help with setting things up for which there is a tutorial for neos that should still apply, just the ui is different: th-cam.com/video/i1fMTy_MOqo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=rBVF5tCjysnwE6Bw
Yeah, since the BZ protogen has modular parts (I also think the bones aren't named right for Resonite) it can be more difficult to import. Luckily for you tho, Kulza has already imported the BZ protogen and you can find it in the public folder here: resrec:///U-Kulza/R-4c676883-51af-41ce-84ed-cc4e57d52758 (just copy paste that link into Resonite, save the folder that spawns to your inventory inside Resonite, and it should be in your inventory)
Hey I think I met you in a world last night but my computer crashed for some reason I was looking for dragon avatars if you know where I can find some that would be nice I also could not find world I think I saw you in again for some reason hopefully I have right person sorry if not awesome video btw
Yeah we met, there were some in that world we were in (USFN Avatar Station) just walk forward and there's the two kobodal dragon avatars there (I also believe they're in HardLight's avatar world but I'm not sure.) Otherwise the files for the avatar I make in the video are in the description if it's what you're looking for
possible to make the model in game too? making models on the pc on i think it was unity or the other program made me lose interest but if i could model it in person in game it would be rly cool and then just do the things u do in this video after? ... idk
Not fully, unfortunately. There is a world called "Juicier" that someone built their own mesh editing system, but it's fast enough to make an avatar or something similar. There are primitives that you can make into an avatar, but that's about as far as it goes for now.
Me a with over 150 Avatars Made and Uploaded Via Unity to VRC and CVR Fails on Getting a Single Workin Avatar in Resonite. Ye i hope for a Plugin for Unity BC I'm Familar with that.
I'm not sure what you are meaning by rolling back code but yes, Resonite can easily handle NPCs with way more than 4 players at a time. Look at the first video I posted on this channel, I built a NPC enemy system for slimes that you fight, and we had 15 people in there once (was a little hectic but still was running ok).
@@Stellanora Oh AWESOME! I'll check it out! Also, rollback is what they use in Team Fortress 2 and all other first person shooter games, to make sure when a player fires a bullet at another player, the bullet and the players aren't affected by lag and it remembers the position of the players in sight when the bullet was shot in their general direction, so even if that player is lagging, they can't teleport around and dodge bullets unfairly like they do in every VRChat game with guns. No FPS or game with guns and enemies is fair unless there's rollback code keeping track of each moment in time where everyone is the moment they or one of the NPCs uses their attack. for example I can't hit a single person with a sword OR gun shot in VRChat arena game worlds because everyone is teleporting around using and extorting lag cheats, so there's just no point to playing those games, even though I'm on a faster internet connection. All because of the complete lack of rollback code.
how do you get it to import the textures with it? i only get a model without the textures altho it loads with textures in unity. also the AvatarRenderSettings doesnt work on my avatar
The texture would have had to already be applied to the model file before in the program it was originally created in, not applied through shaders in unity. I show how to apply the textures from 6:40 on tho. And, for avatar render settings, make sure the check box is checked for near clip and try de-equiping and then re-equiping the avatar for it to initialzie.
@@Stellanora yea. Solved the texture issue by just applying them manually. the near clip, tho checked and initialized by switching between avatars still did not really work.
@@InfVRyou say it's not really working, so just clarifying but do you see it clipping a bit but not enough or just not clipping at all? In either case tho try increasing the near clip value to something much larger just to see if it's working (like 0.5 or 1)
@@Stellanora I increased the near clip from the recommended 0.1-0.5 up to 100 in increments with no change on every increment to how far away it clips still seeing my snout and whiskers clip at the same distance (which is right up in my face)
@@InfVR hmm, okay. Just making sure but the slot the near clip is on has turned orange, when you're inside the avatar, and the component / the slot the component is on is enabled? If that's still not the case it might be better to move this conversation either to inside Resonite or discord, I'm stellanora on both or you can ask in the resonite discord if you'd prefer that: discord.gg/resonite
That's normal, as the raycast from the dev tool can only hit colliders. Once the inspector is open, press the up arrow with the two purple lines, and it will take you to the root of the avatar. From there, you can continue from 9:40
It's not just furries. While furries do make up a good portion of the resonite population, there are plenty of other non-furry avatar worlds and people who are not furries. For example, the Japanese community primarily uses anime avatars.

Just tried this game after 4 years of VRC, and that video definitely helped me getting started, thank you so much !
this was a perfect tutorial and your voice is so nice to listen to :)))
@mantasinspace thank you! And, I'm glad I could help :D
Thank you for sharing this! It will be so helpful for plp new to Resonite ⚡🌈
Thank you now that I see how much easier and fun it is to upload characters there I have to play it
Very informational and well made video! ^w^
This looks absolutly insane, thats a VR enthousiast creator wet dream
Video popped up in my recommended after watching a proto flux tutorial. Recognised you as I just seen you in a world lol. Another useful tutorial
i can't believe i actually ran into this person by accident on me second Resonite session.
It seems like the avatar maker is pretty much the same layout as unity which is nice
Fantastic walkthrough for firsts!
This is a really nice video ^w^
Metallic maps work kinda weirdly- turned my entire avatar metallic instead of their mechanical arm.
That's because metallic maps mean a different thing here. We use them for changing how reflections look then masking out smoothness or metallic (I.e. you can put a reflection sphere texture in there for various effects). I'm not 100% sure on this, but if you use the dev tool and open your context menu, then click create new -> material -> PBS -> PBS splatmat (I forget the name of the material but something like that) and then you can place that material on the avatar the same way you put texture on a material (I.e. poke the orb through the material slot and click).

man if only i could make avatars in here. or at least make outfits in resonite. would be pretty cool =v=

tried this with the BZ Protogen model, didn't work at all, don't know if i'm just dumb or the model is broken or i need to do it in VR, i don't know

oh hey i saw you in the game just recently

Ye i hope for a Plugin for Unity BC I'm Familar with that.
So it's a little similar to making VRChat avatars since it uses Unity.
not quite, it does use unity as a render engine but everything else is custom (called Froox Engine). I'm certain Unity was a big inspiration tho
Can Resonite reasonably handle NPC enemies and rollback code for video game sims/worlds with more than 4 players at a time?
