Wyren Avatar (VRChat, ChilloutVR)

Wyren are an adventurous derg-adjacent species noted for their smol but mighty bite and deep love of everything pineapple. They also think blue is the stinkiest color (but it's ok to be wrong).

Avatar Details

The VRChat PC version is ~64k poly using 5 standard materials with 4k textures for the body and clothing items, and is rated 'Medium' when uploaded to VRChat. Included in the package are both the male and female versions of the avatar which have been optimized for full body tracking and feature: viseme speaking animations; face rig for MMD worlds; gesture-based expressions with expression lockout; custom menus; sit and lay animations for Desktop users; toggles for the Hoodie Shirt Pants Shoes and Face Mask etc as well as some body parts (hair, horns, etc); avatar interactions; tail control as well as a wag animation; an alternative version with a fluffy fox tail; and I've tried to keep the various parts on separate meshes + the UV thoughtfully laid out to make it easy to customize.

The VRC Quest version is currently male-only but otherwise includes most of the same features as PC, and I've included two Quest versions to choose from: an optimized version without clothes which is just under 15k poly using two materials that is rated 'Medium' when uploaded, and an alternative Quest Version with Clothes which is just under 20k poly and uses 1 additional material that results in it being rated 'Poor' when uploaded. This less optimized version also has physbones on the ears and tail, with an in-game menu option to toggle them off if they cause issues for your friends. Both Quest versions use the same textures as the PCVR avatar.

The ChilloutVR version is also currently male-only but matches the stats of the VRC PC version and I've set up a basic controller with toggles and gesture-based face expressions, etc. Please note that the CVR avatar uses Dynamic Bones which must be purchased separately in the Unity Store (the scripts can be easily removed if you do not have or want dynamics).

This avatar is technically a 'beta' as I am still improving it and adding things based on feedback from the community, but it is feature complete and ready to go if you like what you see! Updates are typically published every month, or as significant new features are added. Please note that updates will not change the body UV map so textures made for the current version will work with subsequent versions (accessories may experience minor changes for optimization).

The female version of the avatar is very new and still being tested, it will be added to CVR and Quest in the near future.

Anyone who chooses to pay for the avatar during the 'beta' phase will receive access to the final and any alt versions at no additional cost. A base version of the avatar will always be available for free.

Acknowledgements

Many thanks to my friends for their encouragement and support during the development of this avatar - if it wasn't for you beans I'd have given up a dozen times at least.

BlackStartx' Gesture Manager add-on for testing VRChat menus animations etc within Unity was a godsend!

Aeriiie's MMD Dance Worlds were an indispensable tool for testing weight painting and checking for clipping issues during the early days of this project, I still miss the holiday one ;-;

I would also like to thank Rezillo Ryker for his Rexouium avatar, Nardo for their Nardoragon, and Jin A for the Wickerbeast King as I dearly love the design of these avatars and it was through them that I found inspiration to try and make my own.

And, finally, thanks are due to you for visiting and reading all of this. My sin is being too wordy lol, I appreciate your endurance! I'm sure others will find it by accident but for those who made it this far here's a little Easter Egg: making the Rock 'n Roll gesture with both hands causes the Wyren to breath fire (PC only - for now!)
