- Final Ik / Vrlabs Final Ik stub-
FINAL IK IS A PAID ADDON. You do not need to purchase this for this project to function. You can use the Vrlabs IK STUB to upload this to vrchat. BUT WITHOUT THE PAID FINAL IK ADDON. IK COMPONENTS CAN NOT BE PREVIEWED IN PLAY MODE. This is expected and will not interfere with the avatar's functionality.

Do not have BOTH Final Ik and Vrlabs Final Ik stub In the same project. This will cause conflicts.

(PAID) Final Ik - https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/animation/final-ik-14290

(FREE) Vrlabs Ik stub - https://github.com/VRLabs/Final-IK-Stub

--Optional--

-Adjerry91's VRC face tracking template-

* You can use any other face tracking template if you prefer. This avatar uses the UNIFIED set for facetracking. But this project has only been tested using Adjerry's template/

--QUIRKS--

These are nonstandard avatar features you may have questions about. I'll try to address them here.

- RECTANGLE UVs This creature uses a rectangular uv map. You will occasionally see square textures for the body. The right side of that texture is used exclusively for the yet to be released tauric variant of this avatar. This was done to atlas both bodies together without the need of a UDIM workflow or multiple materials. If you are using the full square version of the body texture you need to set the uv tiling to uv chanel 0 and set the tiling to 1,1 . ( I was going to use an alternate channel for the rectangular uv's but there is an issue with fallbacks not using the right chanel and breaking the textures if you aren't fully shown)

-THE TAUR VERSION . You may notice that throughout the files there exists another version of this model with an abnormal body type. This is going to be a variant of this model that will have a separate bundled release. It will be ready soon tm.

-IK LEGS We have some fancy leg movement going on that makes the extra digi leg joints pull up when taking steps. This may look weird in some situations and poses. This feature can be toggled off in game for the normal stiff leggies experience. This feature has not also been thoroughly tested with large/small avatar scales and may result in some strangeness. Also due to how the ik works Fullbody knee tracking doesn't actually track if Ik is enabled. You can always turn the feature off If it bothers you though.
