How to Convert a VRChat Avatar for 3D VTubing (VRM and VSF Tutorial)
Hey! And welcome to this tutorial on converting VRChat avatars to VTuber 3D formats (VRM and VSF) | Please read the description!
This tutorial is for those who already have a Unity project (version 2022.3.6f1) with a working VRChat avatar.
The process is almost identical if your project is already at version 2019.4.31f1!
It is strongly recommended that you back up your project before starting the tutorial.
It's also possible that during the process, it might "break" your avatar's thumbs (those with functional hand tracking). I haven't looked into how to fix this yet.
Finally, even if your avatar doesn't have face tracking, you can still follow the tutorial; it will simply have fewer "emotions" available. :)
