Added new lighting controls to Prismic's Avatar Search to help with avatar testing. "Directional" controls the dynamic sunlight direction, color, and intensity. "Point" does the same for a point light but with added controls for range and shadows. Despawning them resets.

How worlds are handled in #VRChat has largely gone unchanged since the release of labs back in 2019. I've created a canny highlighting a number of requests I believe would massively improve the system for creators and users alike. Please check it out! feedback.vrchat.com/feature-requ...

It took 10 months to go from 100 million to 200 million visits, but only 8 months to go from 200 million to 300 million visits. Continuing that trend, it should mean ∞ visits by August 2027 right? 🤔 Jokes aside, I just enjoy recording the milestones 😁 1.6 million visits too!

Today marks the 3 year anniversary of Prismic's Avatar Search on #VRChat! A lot happened for @vrchat.com over the past year that's helped in developing out the world further (binary data loading, persistence, creator economy, avatar marketplace), and hoping 2026 continues the trend!

Back in early February 2025, Prismic's Avatar Search passed 100 million visits. Today, just over 10 months later, it's passed 200 million. Averaging 10 million visits a month is insane. I'm glad it's become such a helpful and integral part of the VRChat experience for so many!

Released a new world for #VRChat #Spookality2025! "Cube - Escape or Die" is a game world where you have to escape from a massive death maze of trapped cubes. Discover secrets, unlock items, escape, and then run it again, because no two games are the same! vrchat.com/home/world/w...

Been working on a new game world for #VRChat #Spookality 2025! I've got a good portion of the core elements complete, but it's a rather ambitious project to fit in everything I want. Hoping to have it all ready on time, but regardless will keep working to add more after release!

Prismic's Avatar Search now has Style and Content filters! Select up to two styles to only show results that match. Deselect any content warnings to hide results that have those flags on them. Now with unique icons for each individual filter! #vrchat

Prismic's Avatar Search has received a fairly substantial update today! The database is smaller and no longer requires a processing step before searching, you can now search by tags, the pedestals have been reorganized and now display tags/styles/warnings/updated date, and more!

Today marks the 2nd anniversary of the release of Prismic's Avatar Search on #VRChat! And tomorrow it's likely to pass 1 million favorites! Thank you to everyone who's helped make it what it is, be it through avatar submissions, feature suggestions, or in offering your support!

Special thanks to @digitherobot.bsky.social for adopting my friends and I in VRChat and without whom the world would not exist; ~Iridescent~ for their multi-decade friendship and support; Legendary Rio and frost sodalis for their help testing; and DullEyeMob for the original world idea.

Added visual bone overlay to Prismic's Avatar Search alongside the Avatar Shaders to help with debugging the default rig. The green holospheres represent head/hand tracking points.

The 100 million visit update for Prismic's Avatar Search is out! Featuring avatar overlay shaders for testing, markers, and achievements! There's also a Supporter Board now for Creator Economy, but don't worry: it's entirely optional, and search will always be free! #VRChat

1 year 9 months 29 days after release, Prismic's Avatar Search is now the #1 most visited community world in all of #VRChat, surpassed only by VRChat Home. That's pretty cool 🙂

Didn't see any existing feature requests for these, so I opened a couple. The ability for Udon to show what players are on your friends list, and to see what group role a user has in group instances. If you'd like to lend your support, Canny links in the replies. #VRChat

With VRChat's world persistence update finally released, Prismic's Avatar Search now features a favorites system! Favorited avatars can be loaded even before the database is finished processing, which should allow for quicker and more convenient utilization of the world and database.

Also the pre-existing persistence features using my old system have also been migrated to VRChat's system as well. This now also includes things like Result Count and Search Performance.

Here's a picture of the new Special Search Function button for it, and now with icons for all of them as well. To add a favorite, search some avatars and just click the star in the top right of the avatar pedestal details panel, and click again to remove.

At what price do you sell out on your own wants, creative intentions, and values? At what point is the sum large enough that it becomes foolish enough not to, especially when the thing you'd be compromising on is an otherwise fairly common/expected practice? (1/7)

It's hard to write this without feeling like I'm bragging, but I've been called foolish enough that I genuinely want to get outside perspectives. Am I foolish? Is there justification in standing by my principles, even if the thing I'm against is otherwise normal practice? (6/7)

And if there is, does that scale infinitely? If turning a thousand dollars down is respectable, what about a million? Or would it be stupid to value my own self respect over that? Made up those amounts entirely, but I hope my point is made. At what point do you compromise? (7/7)

But at the same time I've been called foolish for holding this stance. Told it's something normal/expected that many other successful worlds do, and that even if I don't need the money I could be putting it toward good causes, and that to not do so only serves my own pride. (4/7)

To me the world is my creative contribution to the VRChat community; providing something I believe is beneficial to everyone, and I want it to be as unobtrusive as possible as an expression of my vision/values, with no worry of ulterior motive to profit off others' works. (5/7)

I've been offered not-insignificant sums of money on several occasions by various companies to put ads in Prismic's Avatar Search. The requests have always been respectful, but I've turned every one down based on my own principles and desires for the project to be ad free. (2/7)

I admit that I don't like ads, but I do respect their place and others' usage of them both to earn money and to promote some genuinely good products. I don't need the money myself though, and personally feel they detract/distract from the thing they're included in/with. (3/7)

Second (meta)verse, same as the first! With much of VRChat's community shifting over this way I figured I ought migrate as well. But just as before I tend to be fairly sparse on social media usage, so don't expect to see too much from me.

You are up to date.
