Downloadv4 Tutorial

Frosty's billboard is a speech bubble prefab for the KAT (KillFrenzyAvatarText) making use of VRChat Avatar Dynamics and Unity Constraints, making it easier to converse as a mute without being a global broadcast via the in-game chatbox

It uses:

  • 500 polygons
  • 4 material slots
  • 14 bits of parameter space
  • 6 constraints

Required parameter space for the KAT text system will depend on how fast you want the text to render,

  • At the least, you ideally want 4, for most users 8, and 16 if you have the parameter space to spare
    • 4 (41 bits)
    • 8 (73 bits)
    • 16 (137 bits)
