Lychee

A 100% lactose-free avatar for VRChat.

Executive summary:

• PC-only FBT avatar
• Poor & VeryPoor versions
• All clothing made from scratch
• Nearly all shader code made from scratch
• Toggles for nearly everything
• SPS, Gogo Loco, and TaSTT included
• Extensively play-tested

Main features:

• Customizable, performant halo shader written by me
  • Comes with 8 presets
• Perceptually uniform hue control for bra & panties
  • Uses my implementation of OKLCH
    • OKLCH looks much better than HSV when changing hue - no dimming or saturation changes!
• Toggles for nearly everything
  • Only exceptions: choker, piercings, and metal waistband
• Male and female SPS with sound effects
• Female SPS is configured with Wholesome
• Gogo Loco (includes flight)

Other features:

• All clothing and accessories are modeled from scratch by me.
• Nearly all shader code is written from scratch by me.
  • Lens shader is a lightly modified version of Crystal Shader. Everything else is mine.
  • No dependency on Poiyomi Pro or lilToon!
  • Tested extensively in real-world conditions - game maps, chill worlds, night clubs, water, etc.
  • Enables custom shader effects such as shatter and geometry scroll, and finer control over the appearance of normals.
• LTCGI enabled by default.
• Light & dark skin variants.
• Custom ray-marched eye shader.
• Sims-style pixellated censor bar over chest when shirtless. (Toggleable)
• Whiskers have a slight pixellation effect which aliases as RGB stripes when viewed from afar.
• Shatter toggle breaks apart the geometry of the eyes, glass and whiskers, and slightly shifts/rotates it in space. This adds a subtle glitch effect to the face.
• Scrolling shatter effect on tail, similar to Poiyomi's shatter wave.
• Idle wag animation on tail.
• Interactable, rigged toes.
• Ground collider for shoes, tail, and ponytail. (Toggleable)
• When aligned precisely with the floor, tilting your foot up causes the toe to bend!
• Riding crop interacts with standard body parts as well as the avatar's thighs, butt, and
• TaSTT in-game asset included. You need the free OSC app to use it!

Menus:

• Nearly everything is toggleable on both the VeryPoor and Poor variants

Performance:

Meme features:

• Bald toggle.
• Eyebrow thickness slider gets thiccc.
• Helicopter dong toggle.
• Toes infinitely stretchable.

Boring things:

• Bounding boxes set correctly for all meshes.
• Avatar height set correctly so feet don't clip into ground in desktop.
• Minimum and maximum brightness is enforced in shader (and customizable). By default, you will be slightly emissive in dark environments without being blindingly bright.
• Physbone colliders and angle limits used where appropriate to minimize clipping.
• Posing disabled on most physbones to prevent griefing.
• Self-interact disabled on breasts to prevent accidental interaction while dancing.
• Outlines are calculated in object space, so scaling up/down preserves relative outline thickness.
• All clothing is opaque, so there shouldn't be issues with map transparency making your clothes disappear.
• Anchor overrides are set for all meshes, minimizing cases where lighting is inconsistent across the avatar.

Dependencies:
