How to Make a Custom VRChat Avatar in Vroid FREE | Vroid to VRChat Part 1

How to make a fully custom VRChat avatar in Vroid, a free avatar creator. This is a more complicated method for creating a custom VRChat avatar than any of the others I've shown before (such as ReadyPlayerMe and Tafi), but it is probably the best method if you don't want to make one from scratch, but still have complete control over the look of your avatar.

In part 1 of this 3 part series, we will be making the avatar in Vroid. In the next parts, I'll show you how to take the avatar you made, and get it ready for VRChat.

This series is basically a conglomeration of information I've absorbed from several other YouTubers, such as Phia and Argama Witch, while trying to make my own avatar. So go give them some love on their channels as well!

FIXES AND UPDATES:


Also for quest users, be aware that some clothes will have issues with shaders as well. This is something you can usually fix in blender, and I have a short video showing how to do that in my Discord (go to the Avatar Help Channel > Pinned messages).

Also the Eyelids and eye highlights don't work with Quest shaders either. Either delete those or add the eyelids to the face texture and the highlights directly to the iris texture.

YOU HAVE THE MOST AMAZING DISCORD COMMUNITY!! I'd been working on an avatar for my son for DAYS and blender decided to crash every time i went to atlas. I went to your discord and got an almost immediate response that tried to troubleshoot with me and when that didn't work he offered to run my file through blender and went above and beyond! This is what every discord community should be like!! A server filled with everyone helping each other, its a thing of beauty!! THANK YOU VIRTUAL PANDA!! You've earned a new subscriber forever and I'm telling everyone I know!!

This goes a lot in dense detail, I love that. It's like a high end art university lecture. That's how many tutorials should be. Thanks!

[peach_boba]

I cant believe that this is where my Avatar creation started and now I make most of my Assets from scratch. Thank you for all the info you provided to lil ol me when I didnt even know where start <3

[eternallysami]

Really nice tutorial, very helpful. I tried Vroid a few years ago and it was hard to customise things how I wanted but it looks like they've improved it a lot. Looking forward to the other parts of this tutorial series! 🐼

[Guillvrmo]

This needs more recognition! This was so helpful, Thank you!!!!

Note for Quest Texture Conversion: After reading the free tools description it appears this will not work for male avatars due to he free version being v.2 while male avatar support added in v.4 (God may this help some poor soul who got stuck as me)

The video was very detailed and helpful... But, the end of the "Quest Shader Fix" was very confusing for me, I have no idea how you hid the "previous eyeliner and eyebrow" and whenever I try to follow through with it, They both become very off, and it just overall doesn't really work as expected, I think I'm doing it wrong but I can't find out what.

Excellent video! Thank you so much for doing it! Can’t wait for the blender video!

[moon_phaser_]

Can I take a minute to say that I think it is incredibly wholesome that you are making an avatar for your wife UuU

[quipsilvervr]

Thanks very much for this video dude, I was literally in the early stages of building my Avatar on Vroid outside of Steam and this video came at the perfect time!

[ofsnoigjo]

[moseschong]

[idiotgemr]

I'm preparing for when I get a vr headset so thanks for the video it helped a lot

[katharinavonwalde]

:o omg i needed that vr wave.... ty for the intro

If you just erase parts of texture that wont do it much more optimized (it could be little bit more optimized if shader is drawing with cutoff mode). Triangles are still drawing, but with transparent color. You should remove invisible triangles in blender instead

[arcanefusion]

very useful been trying for a little bit and probably one of the best tutorials
