VRChat Robot Fallbacks (Free!)
🕑 Added 2023-03-20 16:40:10 +0000 UTCTired of being called a Hotdog or a Brush? Wouldn't you rather just be a robot instead?
There are two robot avatars: floating chest, arms and head (+feet), and another one with all limbs attached. The floating one still has parts of the feet because of a VRChat bug that places your fallback incorrectly if it is just a floating robot.
Avatar used as an example as a good ranked PC fallback is Silent by -ReFLeX-. It does not come with a good rank version, that is my edit.
Using someone else's fallback avatar was fixed on 25 March 2023. You now have to download this package and upload the fallback yourself.
Using my publicly uploaded Robot Fallbacks without needing to upload them yourself
- Get VRCX (https://github.com/vrcx-team/VRCX)
- Choose either Full Robot Fallback (avtr_c2556a8b-1eca-419e-baba-6d97b0ced4af) or Floating Robot Fallback (avtr_ac6c7fd1-cf53-416f-9062-cef8a0c7f186)
- In VRCX top right corner next to the Search bar there is Direct Access button. Click that and paste one of the IDs from above to the textbox.
- Avatar panel should open, click on the three dots and choose "Select Fallback Avatar"

Uploading these avatars to your account as Fallback avatars
In case VRChat later removes the ability to use other people's public fallback avatars, I have provided a unity package for these avatars here.
Download it, make sure in your Unity has Android module installed by going to File / Build Settings / Android, change build target to Android either in Build Settings or SDK upload screen.
Choose one of the avatars to upload and make sure you check "Use for Fallback" checkbox. If the checkbox is unavailable you didn't upload the Android (Quest) version first. Once you have successfully uploaded the Android / Quest version as a fallback avatar, change the build target platform to Windows and upload it to the same blueprint (so just change build target to Windows and upload).
In game the avatar will be available in the Fallback section of your avatar menu. Select it there as your fallback avatar.
Uploading these avatars as Quest fallback and PC Good ranked version as PC fallback
Your Quest fallback and PC fallback don't need to be the same avatar. The only requirement is that they are Good ranked on their specific platforms. The catch is that you still need to have both, you can't just have a PC Good avatar as your fallback. This is where the Robot comes in.
Upload one of these Robots as your Quest fallback avatar and then using the same blueprint ID upload your PC Good ranked avatar as the PC fallback. Now Quest users see your 4.5k polygon robot but PC users see your up to 70k polygon more detailed avatar.
In game the avatar will be available in the Fallback section of your avatar menu. Select it there as your fallback avatar.
