OMG, hey Froox! Glad you enjoyed it, had a blast going through it all!

It’s the boy himself!!! :D

frooxius was one of the first people i met in neos, im glad to see he and others are back with resonite

This is Incredible, I hope you all the success in the world making this :)

Man, this game looked so fun! Wish it was on quest 2, considering all I have is a crappy laptop, but once I upgrade I'll definitely be checking it out! Keep up the good work.

There’s so many fun things you can do with all these, heavily considering going back soon to see what else I can do

They’d prolly need to make the game from the ground up to get it working, but I get what you mean. Would be cool af to have some of these

@@DaBloodyResh Oh yeah definitely something they can easily implement. No clue how bad the code for VRChat is. Might be spaghetti or really clean, no clue how good their dev team is 😂

I honestly can’t say for sure, maybe I’ll have to ask them some day, lol

Tbh, from my experience with tryna put an avatar into Neos when that was around to vr, I'd rather just work in desktop mode to upload an avatar.

There’s a few things the game could use to really help itself, but yea, that would especially help, lol

@@DaBloodyResh from my understanding they are working on that. (I believe)

back before they split from neos they had a decent library, they know it's an issue but they have a lot of priorities to work on Addendum: I do feel like part of what makes the game so great is that even if it doesn't have many stock avatars right now, the barrier of entry to make your own is way lower. You can use almost any rigged model in the avatar importer and it usually just works first try, alternatively you can throw a static mesh in as a head and that's all you need. Someone can just take any humanoid model, throw it in mixamo, then use it in game. Granted, some people don't want to put that effort in, they just want a social program that works with minimal thought, and that's fine, but resonite is really the **only** option if you want to do more than just chat in VR using your social platform.

@@williamsmith6921 Oh I know, they had a whole multiple series of avatars, but the issue is telling people to navigate it like a file browser. Hopefully with Froox and everyone having the freedom to continue development, they'll at least add something like a tagging feature for public files so that way someone can quickly hunt for avatars or other resources by just using a popular tag.

I tried it out for a bit a while back and the first thing I did is look for an avatar and yeah it was difficult to find more than a few avatars at a time. It also probably didn't help that was I too shy to go into a public instance xD

Hahaha, I was given a non-furry avatar originally, but I kept losing them (game crashed due to weird issues with my PC) so I just got carefree about which one I used

haha yeah game crashes do happen occasionally. Thankfully less and less as more updates come through.@@DaBloodyResh

It’s more of a an issue on my part anyway, been having the issue for months on VRC as well, so I’m dealing with that thanks to some of the stuff I got for Christmas

He’s in denial lmao

I haven’t looked too much into second life, but I remember someone mentioning that it’s basically second life with Gmod

@@DaBloodyResh funny how I keep seeing comments around vr that mention second life, but they always come from people who have almost no idea what second life is like, and are said to people who have often never heard of it

you would probably find a lot of the community is past or current second life players though its usually not really the first thing people say when you meet them so it may come as a surprise@@DaBloodyResh

It’s insanely cool how much crazy shit actually happens, I can’t wait to see how things end up down the line

I didn’t really know much going in, but there were some non-furries like Prime (the dev) and the knight who gave me the pass. There were others as well, but for some reason or another, they just didn’t make the final cut.

I'm not exactly sure why there is so many furries on the platform. might just be because there is so many techical people in the furry community that enjoy what you can do on there? but hey, don't let the furries keep you away if you wanna check it out, it's one of the most special places you can find I'd say

I guess it's a mix of the amount of furries into tech, and how VR is so important to furries (it's the only medium that allows us to truly BE our fursonas).

There is a good sized community of non furry's on resonite, but it is growing slower then the furry one

@@ronangoss4904 that's nice to hear, would be nice to meet some. having just furries can get a bit much at times

Can’t you just take my word and move on?

Eh. He's got a pass, he's good.

@@DaBloodyResh Yeah ur good. Oh yeah you got the pass. Nah ur DEFINITELY good. Trust me tho: People WILL continue to joke about you being a furry. The more you resist, the more it'll happen, so just ignore the comments.

Nah, it’s totally fine. This guy’s my friend anyway

Hell yea, maybe I’ll run into you as well when I come back some time soon

Thanks so much Ryan, this one took a while to make! It’s crazy cool all the options that the game provides, and all the “science” stuff they did to me was just funny

I’ll prolly revisit it later on, I think the best thing I can do is come up with a broad concept that can apply to all of main 3 social VR experiences

Thank you so much! This was a lot of work and time invested, but I think it turned out a lot better than I originally thought it’d be

Helpful?! They don't help me. IDK what you're talking about... Legit. I was looking for help with an avatar scaling system and I got blocked by many actually talented people who would know how to do what I was looking to do

@@cyberboy9550 that typically only happens if someone is really obnoxious to the point of causing others stress or just a plain asshole. Most people don't block others from my experience. I know quite the number of creators on the platform and a good number of them are mentors who literally volunteered to help out others, getting blocked by one person when that isn't the case may happen but being blocked by many well talented people (which 80% of talented people on the platform are mentors) then something is clearly wrong. This is either: a) A flat out lie designed to shit on Resonite (seen a lot of these sadly) or b) You are actually a shitty person to be around. If it's not the first I'd highly, highly suggest looking in at your self and what you may have done to piss people off that badly. If you are Homophobic, Sexist, Transphobic, Furryphobic, Racist, that is a fast way to get blocked on Resonite, people have a 0 tolerance policy to intolerance on the platform. If you are demanding others do things for you, or bitch and whine about everything that's going on/wrong? that's an other good way to get blocked. Being a general troll or not listening when people tell you no, or just not listening at all is an other good way to get blocked. Harassing others in general over anything, breaking world rules, not getting consent before doing things to others etc. All of these are expected reasons to get blocked by people on any platform not just Resonite. Anyone watching the video can see how rather quick people are to help others, even total strangers, on this platform, no questions asked and that is the typical experience people have on this platform and as such your stated experience isn't standard in the slightest. "If everywhere you go it smells like shit, maybe it's time to check your own shoes."

@@cyberboy9550 Blocked? That's odd. Like I'd understand "No sorry." but blocking you? Were you asking them more after they said they wouldn't help? That's the only reason I can think of why they would do that.

@@ruier6705 No. I respect the people's decision to not help me, as in I go and ask someone else when one person has made it clear that they don't want to help me... It may be the way I approached the situation, my lack of friendly connections within the Resonite community, my lack of money to pay people to do things, which ties into the previous one to this. Ect...

Loved how everything turned out, and everyone was super nice and willing to help out where need be. While I can’t say for sure about the more viewers thing, any support goes a long way!

It’s an interesting experience for sure, there’s some elements such as barrier to entry and optimizations that I believe are currently holding it back, but I think with time, it has the potential to compete

No no, if you goof off you get a ban. You must ASK FOR PERMISSION before using items on people like guns or swords. So fun!

@@ghfhgfuuu did you just get pissed bc you need consent?

It'll probably replace vrchat in a few years if high end VR becomes more affordable than a custom or pre built PC with nVidia or AMD graphics and an oculus rift/steam VR headset Since it would probably be unlikely to optimize the game Or maybe it would be possible I'm fine if there's a separation between PC and standalone content because VRChat already has that And I'd still switch because of what resonite offers

@@Random-xw3qc the game is soon undergoing a huge performance optimization for the next big update, TBA on when itll be out but its confirmed to be the next one on the patreon and discord.

I guess when you have so much freedom to do whenever you want, there is literally nothing stopping you from making something happen. Mirror Dwelling might be a thing, but with the player base being much smaller as well and less utilized to casual consumers, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are eventually mirror dwelling activities occurring as the game grows

“Your honor, I have the pass, I think this case is open and shut.”

Dude saved my life from the comment section, LMAO

No problem, glad you enjoyed it enough to want to give it a shot!

Of course! I’ll be back for more pretty soon!

Hoping to see it evolve over time, super cool stuff from everyone that I wanna check out again soon

Haha, glad you enjoyed! I’m actually planning another one pretty soon and I’m excited to check out some more stuff that I may have missed

Thank you so much, it’s fun being able to try out something new that I’m completely unfamiliar with and just working from there. It’s something I’ve been trying to adopt more into my videos and committing to it even more next year. (also, not a furry, but i appreciate that, lmao)

It’s all really cool stuff that you need to really experience to really see what there is, since I had to cut out so damn much Merry Christmas as well!

Ok, but... how do they plan on keeping the creeps out? I'm sure you know how people can be.

That’s actually something I wondered about during the recording, they’ve got pretty active moderation since the community is close and small, so anything going wrong can be addressed immediately. Similarly, they have the same types of moderation tools like VRC, such as blocking, muting, hiding avatars, etc

Hey, I really appreciate it! This video has been blowing up a lot more than most of my projects, so that prolly explains why you found this one, feel free to stick around, got a lot of new stuff incoming next year!

damn, this used to be 2.2k views, lol

Thanks a bunch, been working a while to find a style that works well with me. I like making some custom assets that fit with the theming, and the idea of Animal Crossing music/UI in a primarily furry video seemed too funny to not do

Sounds awesome, feel free to reply back and let me know how it all goes!

Thank you so much, it’s been a long journey and I’m just trying to find my spot here, but I really appreciate the support!

Man is a legend: showed up, ranted about corporations, then shared wacky creations like udders and beyblade turtles

Yea, public lobby player counts are pretty small so that’s pretty understandable

I’ll be back sooner than you think, lol Good to see ya too!

I’d say give it a shot if you’re interested, it’s free and on Steam

Thanks! I’m planning on coming back eventually, but I don’t wanna just cover the same idea over and over again, so I’ll need to figure out to how to properly incorporate it into vid concepts!

You’re gonna make me cry, lol

Thanks so much Ez!

It’s do or die with social VR in that aspect, lol

Yea… I’m just not a furry so it’s a bit weird to use, lol. I thought it made sense to keep using it since everyone else was one tho

Btw, what is your opinion about furries? I am asking now because you made me curious@@DaBloodyResh

I’m totally fine with them to do whatever as long as they aren’t hurting anyone. Used to be a massive furry hater a while ago but changed over time when I realized that the worst of it was such a small minority of the actual fandom. It’s not for me but I ain’t gonna get too much on anyone’s case for being one

+++rep for that my homie, i was furry hater too but when i seen beauty of furry fandom i become furry myself @@DaBloodyResh

Hell yea, lemme know how it goes!

I can only hope the best for them

thanks a bunch, I’ll have to reach out to them and see what else they might have made to post somewhere

@@DaBloodyResh I have a public folder that is FULL of meta memes

@@polyanathekiller3225you… WHAT?

Hell yea, I’m considering the idea of revising this to specifically highlight the creations such as those ones, was a lot of fun to go through

God I wish, lol, really appreciate the support!

Oh hey Lorgenz, thanks for all your help as I went through this experience!

Holy shit, thanks Mia, lol

“I am the one who wields the blade”

it's quite a bit of fun, def need a decent setup but it's nice

That’s awesome to see people watching this who were featured. But yea, it’s nice being able to get along with people even if I’m not a furry, lol. Which person from the vid are you specifically?

@DaBloodyResh late response but I wasn't really featured, just kinda in the background, think you can hear me say 2 words lol

Oh damn, that’s pretty cool then, which part?

@@DaBloodyResh I was in the background when you were talking to Lorgenz, I was upside when you came back from flying.

It’s crazy wtf is going on in there, lol, and thanks

I’ve just become their science experiment at this point and just sorta had to accept it, lol

Absolutely, caught me off guard like how ChillOut did, but this goes even further

I can agree with this. I’m a bit dumb so the whole “Resonite coding” stuff isn’t gonna work too well with me, but it did feel like a breath of fresh air joining a public feeling a lot more safe knowing there’s not gonna be crashers or just shitty people. VRC has a lot of really cool stuff as well, but you do have to look a bit more since the game is so much larger

Absolutely, there’s apparently a lot that I missed that I’m prolly gonna go back to later this year

Hell yea, worth at least giving a shot

Thanks! It was a lot of fun and I wanna find a way to incorporate it smoothly into future concepts, still figuring that out tho

Empire saved my damn life from half the comment section, LMAO. But yea, I didn’t run into any issues with any people, which is pretty nice.

Well got good news for you! Creator Jam is still a thing! Every week they do something and I believe every month the members of the server vote on that month’s topics. February is when MMC, The Metaverse Makers Competition, which is hosted by Creator Jam in resonite, gets announced and opens up!

What’s the first “-inator” you’re going for?

@@DaBloodyResh The Mustache-Inator.

Keep me updated on this

Noooo!!!! it pc only

100%, super cool stuff that I’d like to mess around with more

Hell yea then, I’m glad to hear. There’s a lot more than I showcased just here

Hahaha, I’ll have to see what happens with time. I could try importing one of my VRC avatars but I wanna go back and get some concepts done that I’ve been wanting to do

That sounds a bit unfortunate, ngl

LMAO, sounds like you’ve had your fun then

Reply to your comment how it goes for ya!

If you’re using a PC but don’t have VR, you can still play in desktop mode! The desktop experience is actually pretty nice, ended up messing around with it a bit as I’m beginning to prepare for a Resonite follow up vid

He made a fully functioning theme park, the hell? Yea, I definitely need to revisit this game some time later this year to see what I missed

I’m very happy to hear that! I’m actually planning another one pretty soon, might reach out to ya for some input

Thank you! Was a ton of fun going through everything, and I’ll be back someday, but I do wanna figure out how to incorporate it into videos in a natural way

I mean, it worked, maybe too well, lmao

Go for it, no reason not to since it’s free

That’s honestly fair, I just left it there for shits and giggles with context for the head shrinking, lol

That’s pretty noice, been running PCVR for a hot minute now and it’s been great! I know Quest support is in development, but I don’t know how far along it is as of rn

Native quest support is gonna be awhile away. It's gonna need a lot of optimizing to be able to run on a quest. The quest can barely run Roblox on lowest settings. But quest link has gotten pretty good. You don't even need to use SteamVR to run it with link.

yeaaa.. Optimisation takes time; I myself use quest link ever since I got my quest, but most of my quest friends don't own a vr compatible PC :( I'll happily wait, since things like this take time, but I'll look forward to it! when the time comes ^-^@@ruier6705

I’ve never heard of anyone doing this, best of luck, lol

Totally go for it if you want!

100%, super cool stuff from everyone

It’s unfortunate, but there is desktop support if you at least want to interact with the content/community in game

Totally up to you, lol. Just keep in mind that you need a link cable to your PC if you’re playing on Quest

If you wanna hop in, it’s free on Steam! Works damn well even on desktop! I also have another video on it coming soon if you wanna see more

lol, it’s no big deal, just playing it up for the bit. But yea, I appreciate it

Still hungry?

Yea, definitely something new that I didn’t expect, lol

Go for it when you’re ready, there’s a lot of stuff in there that I didn’t get to show off! Making another video covering more of the cool shit pretty soon!

No biggie, we had a long discussion about bully sticks and his dog, lol

Go for it!

I wouldn’t let those aspects stop you from enjoying it. As shown in the video, there are people who aren’t furries playing it, and everyone was super willing to not only help, but also showcase their work. I expect that obviously some finicking around is necessary, but your projects can be viewable by anyone, so help is literally a player invite away

@@DaBloodyResh It's still something I'm certainly going to look at, because I do think there is something to be gained out of curious people straying from the bandwagon. Again, Resonite is probably the most polished innovation of a VR social application I've seen. Outside of what I mentioned previously, the only other huge issue I think I can see is the complexity. I personally find it exciting, but it's not very user-friendly to someone who just wants to buy a Booth avatar, throw it into Unity, and upload it to the game. From what I've seen, bringing in a custom avatar is a much more involved process. Regardless, this may be a little side-project of mine. Who knows, maybe I'll (and many others) feel at home despite it all!

Haha, sounds good. I’ll prolly casually pop in every once in a while, I really like Resonite’s camera system so I wanna mess around with that more

Fell free to addd me Rockman Rock is my username

I mean, you give people a lot more freedom to be creative, you’re gonna see a lot of cool shit, lol.

Yea, I’ve been keeping an eye on them again recently and been seeing some really cool stuff

Yea, it’s got a lot of leniency but it’s pretty much a dev playground, it’s super cool nonetheless

God, I wish I got more of it

While the option might be there (I didn’t mess with the controls options too much), there are so many new features and little things that I didn’t show off that there’s no way you could really get the same familiar feeling

You can customize your ui as well as make custom tools that are easier to use so that shouldn’t be a problem

Apparently a bit too popular, poor me and Froox, lmao

Hey, thanks for making the experience great! I’ll most likely be back some time soon once I figure out the right way to incorporate it into videos!

Not a problem.

Same here, gotta do some optimizations but excited to see where things go

It’s got some elements that it definitely shines in, optimization is something VR isn’t too good with to begin with, especially user generated content

ah damn, maybe later on I'll run into you it's sorta all about the experience of Resonite, showcasing what goes on in an average experience, since I feel like that's something that's lacking in a lot of VR content creation. It always feels like aimless funny moments or all commentary, so I wanna do a sort of middle ground

@@DaBloodyResh i have some nice stuff to show off. i added your contact!

Oh damn, I’ll have to check it out eventually, lol

thank you wyatt, very cool

was here at 0!!!

it's on Steam for free! Go for it!

Haha, nice. I’ve got a discord and I’m even in the Resonite discord if you ever want to mention anything to me, lol

@@DaBloodyResh where do I go to find your discord?

It’s linked in the description

I would definitely give VRC another try, but stay out of public lobbies. If chaotic nightmares aren’t your cup of tea I heavily recommend looking up some communities and giving that a shot. Resonite is a fun experience with a lot of really cool stuff nonetheless tho, and while the community is a lot smaller, you can pretty much guarantee that any non-newbie is gonna be really nice and helpful.

Go for it then, it’s free and on steam, so unless you don’t have a PC, nothing is stopping you

It’s funny you mention that world specifically, I’ve been looking into future video concepts and I’ve been wanting to go visit that community for a hot minute. But yea, I’d be curious if that would potentially split the community up too much though

@@DaBloodyResh They'd need to find more people to serve as faculty, teaching people and keeping the server running smoothly. And there's also the question of how many trans people would realistically try something like Resonite before VRChat. But, at the very least, Resonite is a promising prospect for in case VRChat gets shut down or otherwise becomes inaccessible to people.
