Black Jaguar VR Avatar

A powerful kitty but lightweight on performance, with a splash of rainbow!

This is a ready-to-upload avatar for VRChat and ChilloutVR.

Check out the 3D previews for both the black and yellow versions!

Quick facts

• VRChat performance rating: Good
• Polygons: 23k
• Textures & shader: 4096px PBR
• Full-body tracking compatible
• Visemes
• Expressions: blep, smile, big smile, surprised, sad, angry, rainbow glow
• PhysBones: whiskers, ears, tail
• Not compatible with Quest

Features

Whiskers, ears, and tail have PhysBones and interaction support. Feet also have colliders so they align with the ground. Dynamic beans!

All avatar features can be toggled via hand gestures by default:

• Blep: left finger point
• Smile: left finger gun
• Big Smile: left peace
• Rainbow Rosettes: left rock & roll
• Surprised: right peace
• Angry: right finger gun
• Sad: right finger point
• Pride Flag: right rock & roll

You can disable the use of hand gestures for these features in the radial menu (R key on desktop), and also find extra controls for the tail, rosettes, and pride flags there.

Alternate Texture

A regular (yellow) jaguar color version is also included. If you plan to use the rainbow rosettes, I would still recommend the black version as it offers better contrast with the rainbow colors.

Furality Aqua Edition

The avatar comes with a separate version (FA) using the Furality Aqua shader for the glowing rosettes.

ChilloutVR Version (experimental)

A separate package for ChilloutVR is included for free with your purchase. I haven't been able to test it as thoroughly as the VRChat version, so please understand that this version is still experimental and comes without warranty. Most of the features should work, except for PhysBone/interaction features, which are only available in VRChat at the moment.

If you use the avatar in ChilloutVR, I would love to hear your feedback - both positive and negative!

Setup Instructions

The download contains a complete Unity project ready for upload. Extract the ZIP file to a folder on your hard disk and follow the instructions in the ReadMe.txt file.

Texturing Kit

If you'd like to paint your own texture, the kit includes a Blender file with both the low- and high-poly meshes ready for normal map baking, and the full Substance Painter project files for the textures (black & yellow).

This is intended for advanced users only. You will need Blender (version 3.2.1) and Adobe Substance 3D Painter (version 8.1.1) to open the included files.

You're free to modify everything, but please note that the high/low-poly workflow can make significant body modifications a little more complicated, as both meshes need to be changed in sync.

Feedback

I would love to hear your feedback about the avatar, especially after you've had a chance to use it for a while. You can use my avatar feedback form or send me an email.
