Unfortunately not one of the built in tags but it's used by folks for drinky/clinky glass stuff or other vfx!

60 Layers on a stock base is insane. I had no idea it was that bad in the wild ~ I've pushed 30+ & felt that was already horrid.

Animator.layerCount being a metric/rank on avatars would probably be useful for casual users & it not being invisible would pressure creators to do better.

Replied out on the go, mb.

That wasn't what I was going for ~ If they're nuking your frames ofc hide. Problem is finding them at all in a sea of okay-ish-vpoors.

Can't hide all vpoors in casual hangouts so size limits is decent tool at catching these absurd Vpoors before they hit your frame time.

Perf rank has its flaws (eg: Can make a green ranked cpu nightmare with animators or vpoor due to +1 poly)

Vpoor is such a bottomless pit so outside clubs I rely on hiding by size limits instead. download 50 MB & uncompressed 150 MB catches most nightmare Vpoors.

I'd assume creators would add any tag that applies to their prop. (You can have to 16!) The universally generic ones having the highest importance while the more niche ones end up for bespoke setups. I've been doing senders on my props like this for a loooong time.

A handful of the combat stuff I've seen in the wild (Weapon, Melee, Fire) but a lot of this comes from my personal avatars and ones I've done for comms. Gotta start somewhere!

What if your liquid is gasoline? That’s flammable! But I see your point lol.

I have to figure out a defining line for niche vs universal generics. Armor would definitely be niche as heck.

Does a standardized naming convention/list for VRChat contact Collision Tags exist? Would love if creators got together and assembled one so prop interactions across different avatars were more likely.

So is this more of a manually/purposefully scheduled file history? I've been using the built in Windows one for a few years now. Has saved my butt occasionally.

The tracking offset happens with the flash ~ before the sound & vibrations arrive. It's sometimes a good few countable seconds. So it's something moving light speed.

When lightning strikes nearby (without a power outage) while I’m in VR, all of my tracking drifts for a moment in the direction AWAY from the sound that follows. (Or grey screens)

My assumption has been that the EMP from the lightning messes with infrared. Nature so cool aaaaA.
