### Requirements

- Python 3.10.9
- Windows 10
- pip

1. Clone the repository

```shell
git clone [email protected]:uzair-ashraf/vrc-osc-discord-band.git
cd vrc-osc-discord-band
```

1. Install Dependencies

```shell
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

1. Run

```shell
python main.py
```

1. Build a standalone executable

This repository is setup with a Github action to compile the standalone executable. If you would like to compile it on your local machine you can read the action for the command via `pyinstaller` [here](./.github/workflows/release.yml).

## Setting a different port number

---

In the same directory your executable is located in, create a file named `vrc-discord-osc.config.json`

In the file add the following contents, and change `9000` to the port you'd like to send your OSC data to.

```json
{
"port": 9000
}
```

If you did it properly the next time you run your application, the terminal window should state the port number you set.

## Setting up your avatar

---

If this your first time working with OSC head over to the [VRChat docs to learn more](https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/osc-overview).

This doc assumes you have a Unity Package with an avatar already set up to be published to VRChat along with some knowledge of how to use Unity.

1. Head over to the [releases](https://github.com/uzair-ashraf/vrc-osc-discord-band/releases) page and download the unity package from the latest release.

1. Open your Unity Project with your avatar.

1. Download the Poiyomi Shader and import it into your project: https://github.com/poiyomi/PoiyomiToonShader/releases

1. Import the unity package from the latest release.

1. If the materials in `Assets/OSC Bracelet/MAT` are purple, set them all to Poiyomi and the settings should transfer

1. Place the prefab in your scene

1. Move the prefab into your armature as a child of your lower left arm bone and adjust it's scale/position to fit your avatar:



1. In your tool bar click `Shadoki > Discord Bracelet`



1. Add the Discord Bracelet, Controllers, and Animations into the editor window and press `Apply`. Keep an eye in the debug console for possible errors.



1. Your new FX layer should be present in `OSC Bracelet/Animations`. Drag and drop it into your avatar's FX Layer.

1. If you are having trouble getting the OSC program to communicate with VRChat, checkout this troubleshooting doc that Wizard wrote for their TTS App: https://github.com/VRCWizard/TTS-Voice-Wizard/wiki/OSC-Troubleshooting

1. Additionally, this program requires that you have Windows Notifications enabled for Discord to run properly. This should be enabled by default but if you are having trouble double check. Go to Windows Settings > System > Notifications. Make sure notifications are turned on at the top and make sure that notifications are turned on specifically for discord.
