Yesterday was quite busy for me in VRChat, even somewhat soloing a quite hardcore-style horror map. There’s one part where you have to solve this puzzle as this guy slowly comes towards you. And if he gets you… the world is deleted, and you have to create a new instance (via portal) and start from the beginning.
That, is some genius world-making skill! Demoralizing.. but still genius!
Moving on, I had to help Creepery (as promised) with making a mirror that can be toggled with a button. This unfortunately had a lot of delays, but was able to give him instructions I wrote down for myself (incase I ever forgot how to do it).
Klaus also wanted my help with his avatar, but sadly I wasn’t able to (as I was too busy helping Creepery). And he managed to successfully get his toggable mirror. Yay!

And then there’s a Dutchie that goes by the name of ‘Sir.Rivers’, who wanted to know how to do the eye beams that BenieTheDragon Boi has. But after what felt like 2-3 hours of debugging issues, he still couldn’t get it. And this, flabbergasts me that it won’t work, with what I see from his shared screen, is a carbon copy of the settings I use! So how in the fuck are they not working for him?! What the fuck did the devs DO to the fucking SDK!?
It just doesn’t make sense! So, I’ll give him my animation (so he can see if there’s anything that we might had overlooked), while at the same time.. I’m going to… UGH.. *grits teeth*… get. Kaelygon’s. Dutchie. *grumble*
Oh how low I’ll go to help a friend out. But, it’s the only way I’ll be able to efficiently help him (using the same model). Hell, it could be an issue with the model (as he said, that maybe Kael didn’t anticipate anyone would want to do eye beams).
Also, something I thought of while in bed. That giving him my animation, actually wouldn’t work (without him grabbing my model and all the accessories). Only way it’ll work, is I need to redo what I’ve done with the default Best Boi model. This way (he also plans to get the Best Boi model), the commands in the animation will be pointing exactly for both people.

Speaking of that smug bastard, I actually decided to meet him (after seeing you know who in a world with a few of my friends), and he saw my model for the first time. He acted like he was.. impressed of the effort I put into it. Wow.
He also offered some free advice, of the wing claws (how I told him I tried to do a wing flap animation, and it wouldn’t work right). He said to weight paint them, and they should move with the wings. So I might try that one day. Don’t think it’s going to work, but I’ll try it.
Kael (and a friend of his), also were preforming pushups using my horns on my head as bars. Hilarious. Unfortunately I never took a picture of it.
.
UPDATE: Rivers got his eye beams to work, by literally doing the reverse that I taught him.. wow. And the more I thought about it, I realized where I fucked up. I did indeed do it in reverse. So, piss!!
Still baffled me of why in the fuck I’m still being allowed to do it this ‘old way’ (when it doesn’t work anymore). Then a thought came to me. What if this is some sort of ‘legacy mode’, so it won’t break the animation? If so, that is quite awesome of them. 🙂
..But the best thing out of all of this? I don’t have to download the Dutchie!! WOOT!!
I can stay as a 100% pure bred BenieTheDRAGON(not Dutchie) Boi! ..even if it means no firebreath. However, I did find a flamethrower weapon.. 😉
So since I can’t do firebreath, I have something that can.
