Pixel Yinglets for VRChat
A yinglet avatar base for use in VRChat. Comes with toggles and production files to assist you in customizing it into your very own yinglet!
UPDATE 5/13/2024: This model's been patched several times, but this storefront page has yet to be updated to reflect the product's current level of quality! (A proper media package will come in the next few days, but suffice it to say, the model is currently much better than what you see here. Try out the .98 beta here, for free!)
Features:
- Physbones on ears, whiskers, hair, tail, breasts (when enabled), and tailpoof!
- Editable PSD allowing you to bucket-fill layers to color individual body parts!
- Snappy face animations!
- Radial submenus of preset faces, and facial gesture toggle!
- Mix-and-match facial expressions!
- Non-spherical eyes with moving pupils!
- Improved elbow IK (with tradeoffs!)
- Digitigrade leg rigging!
- Face and body customization sliders!
- Separate Poiyomi hue sliders for body and eyes!
- 8,192 triangles and counting!
As of January 2024, I have a roadmap of updates to take on: first to improve topology in places like the hands/tail and add more built-in customizability across platforms (fur patterns, fluff, hairstyles, clothing, and accessories), then to make use of more advanced features (more materials/physbones/animations, first-person snout, and other fun things). When this version of the avatar receives these features, it will coincide with a price increase to $40. Buying it now gets you those enhancements at no further cost!
You can buy it if you like, BUT bear these things in mind first!
- This model is not recommended for Quest users! I include a Quest version only so Android folks can see more yinglets in VRChat, not for Quest users to use themselves. Please only buy this if you plan to use it on a VR-capable PC.
- My yinglets' arms are close to the limb proportions you find in the yinglets of Out-of-Placers, meaning forearms are 2x as long as biceps; it was very important to me that I not compromise on this. For rigging this uncommon setup on PC, controller position is mapped to a point halfway down the forearm instead of on the model's hand, and because of that the model's hands are further out than your own. However, there's a tradeoff: grabbed items snap to the forearm controller position instead of to the hand, and hands/fingers do not move on Quest (this is why I do not recommend Quest-only users buy it for themselves). I have not found a way around this that keeps the proportions and improved elbow IK intact, but I've personally used this solution on my main model for over a year and have grown used to it. If you're on the fence, try out the public version, available at this link.
- I haven't personally tried this with full-body tracking, but I have seen others with six-point FBT test it and it appears to work properly. I'll be using the revenues from this to purchase my own set of trackers, which I'll be using with this: this avatar will be my main as I continue to use VRChat on a weekly basis, any improvements I make to my own base will roll into the paid version.
