Have you done static batching and baking lights and still look for more ways to optimize? Gather all your focus and hard optimize your work to run using one (1) single Material to pull off some real VR magic! Not just for Quest users, but anyone seeking maxi...

Short answer: VRChat utilizes a tool called YTDL/YTDLP for being able to parse generic urls into video specific ones. When you try to "play" a url like youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEOID, that isn't a link to a video, but a webpage CONTAINING a video. What YTDL does ...

This prefab lets you track information about your world! For example: How many players fall off your world? Does anyone use my mirror? Where do they spend their time? Does anyone press that button you added? Download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1giI_...

When players fall from a great height, they ragdoll and make a sound. Jank alert! This prefab uses the very obscure and obsolete VRChat combat system. Use at your own risk! It probably won't work with more than 20 players. Download https://drive.google.com/...

Bakery is a tool for baking lights with Unity. However, it only works on NVIDIA GPUs. For VRchat, it's really useful because it's high quality, using raytracing and AI denoising supports physically accurate lighting, but also options for stylisation like fak...

If you put a light in a scene, it works, so why do we need to bother with baking? There's two reasons. First, each realtime light needs to draw everything it touches again. It means lights are really expensive to render, compared to a lightmap which is just s...

This section covers exactly what the cost of each type of light is. As we're measuring cost, our currency is draw call passes. A draw call is Unity sending data to the graphics card to render. We won't consider the cost of actually shading pixels in this sect...

Realtime lights also have an Importance setting. Unity will only render (in VRC) 8 lights as full extra pass lights, which places an upper limit on the number of times an individual object can be affected by lights and re-rendered. Which lights it chooses is ...

Just as a model might have a basic albedo/diffuse map, a normal map, and etc., a light map is a texture applied to the surface of that model. Using Bakery or whatever, we pre-calculate the lighting using higher quality lighting calculations than we can afford ...

Creating UV maps for objects is tough. And doing it again for lightmaps is even more work. But it makes a big difference to visual quality. Unity's automatic lightmap UV generation doesn't work too well with complex objects, and for simple ones, it can still p...

Lightmaps cover the environment, but if you just bake a lightmap, dynamic objects won't be affected. You also need light probes! Light probes are points in space that capture an image of the surrounding lighting from all directions. When there are enough prob...

This section covers information on light probe placement tools. LightProbesVolumes (free) Light Probes Volumes is a free tool that places probes down based on the scene collision. It's easy to use and quick to set up. Simply place down volumes and have it fi...

(Unfortunately, this is really more a *cynicist's* guide.) This section will go over using the in-built Unity bakers. Unity provides three options for lightmap baking. Enlighten is tried, true, terribly outdated, and depreciated in newer Unity versions. The...
