Getting Started

To begin with, ensure you have Unity, Blender, and access to Models-Resources.com. You can find all the necessary links in the description below.

Step 1: Browsing Models

Head over to Models-Resources.com and explore the vast collection of characters and accessories available for import. Utilize the search function to quickly locate specific items you are interested in.

Resize your model if needed and configure it as humanoid.
Set up the skeleton and ensure all components are correctly aligned.
Add a VRC descriptor and configure the camera for optimal positioning.
