Load friends avatars even in different worlds
Leader MaXx
Hi everyone,
can you please vote to add advance options in settings to load friends' avatars when they are online in other worlds or even offline this will help make things a lot faster specially that now there is 5G and fiber internet and who knows how soon we will get to 6G talking about myself I have 1000 Mb/s ( about 120 MB/s) so no matter how much things loading will not slow my internet neither my Monster Pc (I have some friends on vrchat with faster internet)and I don't want vrchat to be less than real life in real life you don't wait for people to load neither vrchat will if this option is added
and to give the story behind this idea (please share a story happened to you that was going to be better with this idea)
I was in a very awkward position today as we ( 9 animators) did a challenge everyone made 3 different animation and tried to get as much reaction from people and record it then we all meet and make a showcase for animations to rate it and rate reactions too so I had some amazing models and animations but it looks like it was a little bit bigger than normal so I needed to wait about 5 min and even more with others to just show a single avatar .it took sooooo long to get some reactions :( . I kept thinking of it for the rest of the day until I got this idea so please add it it will help the platform so much.
Thank you

pretty good idea would enable it from time to time as internet is not very stable specially with covid but surely will make things go faster

I have 40mb/s and I guess it is more than enough to get this feature full functioning

was not expecting people to share their stories and add ideas to my idea thank you everyone I will merge all details that will help this feature to work in one post to help moderators
@Leader MaXx :add advance options in settings to load friends' avatars when they are online in other worlds or even offline
Gelatinous Lady :for your idea to work this needs to choose a limited number of friends
Alpha Tyrant :in my point of view 10 (friends) is enough
xxx_red_xxx :It wouldn't be a problem (game crashing) if it downloads friends avatars at a lower speed and/or priority (I add loading one after one or 2 after 2)
SquidNeko :It does need to be default off
Padoruvr : added design idea
Quite Happy: added design idea
Hushmush :why not when you click the feature option in settings just add a group 4 under other friends groups in social tab
additional idea from ||Maiko Master Birb|| :why not load anyone you avatar you interact with even strangers because when you check others profiles it is normally to friend them or to check in what world are they so you are more likely to meet them now or in the future

Leader MaXx: about the lag or crashing there is a difference between only avatar which is what is happening in your feature and between avatar and movement loading in the same time which is more likely the thing that cause lagging so maybe your idea will be just like a downloading program working it will not cause lag or crashing the only thing it may cause is slower internet that is why it must be optional like suggested so if it happened and the client internet got slower he just disable it and turn it back on when his internet become good again
Akuma
SKsugar: what you mentioned is right but it will NEVER lag or crash the user
to make this easier to understand let us see what are vrchat processes that mainly cause the lag when normally your friend join you (didn't analyze traffic this what my eyes analyzed)
1- adding number to users in the room
2- receive that the user joining is your friend
3- loading name tag
4- loading blue man model first
5- receive information about friends avatar
6- start downloading avatar
7- after downloading switching blue man to friend's avatar
8- loading meshes
9- applying textures
10- applying shaders
11-get other things ready from the avatar like audio and animations
12- applying any rendering or shader that the world force
13- when you have performance preferences it applies which means it will switch avatar to grey man model
14- receive every move that your friend do
Compared to Leader MaXx idea :
1- receive avatar information
2- download avatar
so yes this feature will NOT have anything to do with lagging or crashing as avatars will not appear until you meet your friends that is why it is perfect as it will reduce/split the processes running when you meet your friend in today vrchat so highly recommend adding this feature

Akuma: Wow never thought of how many processes vrchat do to load a friend good to know that this feature will not crash the game
German🦞Lobster
Lexus Kunde: yeah first I was worried about adding this feature but hopefully it will be all good
Call me cute💕💕💕
I am worried that moderators may not see the feature idea until they are done with open beta and others new updates can't blame them they worked a ton on it that is why it looks so great and want to see your idea in new updates soon thank you for taking time to write it here and liked your thinking between vrchat and real life
TAKE MY VOTE

Sorry some people can't help it but be toxic and salty a salt mine not just salty ignore them I saw some of them just be toxic and refuse any idea in other feature requests
migero

Hushmush
migero: oh hell no that is why others suggested down to limit it to 10 users list
