d4rkpl4y3r Avatar Optimizer 3.9.0

Add Repo to VCC

Features

• Generated shaders and materials are now stripped of all properties that got baked into the shader.
  • This reduces avatar download and uncompressed size slightly.
• Reduced the amount of shader variants generated when using Write Properties as Static Values.
  • Forward base passes don't generate variants without the LIGHTPROBE_SH keyword anymore.
  • Materials with render queue > 2500 don't generate any shadow related variants.

Changes

• Generated shader names now have a hash suffix.
• Keep MMD Blend Shapes is now MMD Compatibility and also prevents the first 3 fx layers to get merged or deleted. (more)
• Rewrote handling of material property animations with WD ON while using Shader Toggles.
  • It now tracks which meshes are animated and put those into a mask in the material instead of checking for NaN values.
• Automatically add the mesh of RealKissSystem to exclusions internally.

Bug Fixes

• Copy the toggle Normalized Blend Values of direct blend trees. (more)
• Fix FindAllPhysBoneDependencies not checking VRCConstraints or FinalIK components. (more)
• Fix animation bindings of the base type Renderer not getting respected properly. (more)
• Shader parser now handles ColorMask 0 passes with no code block correctly and throws a parse error for other non code block passes.
• Fix optimizer not checking all the animator controllers in the avatar descriptor for some things.
• Fix special animation layers not getting updated animation clips.
• Layers with only a off animation no longer block default disabled meshes from using NaNimation. (more)
• Fix IsAnimatableBinding not checking if the bindings type is a base type of the component types.

d4rkpl4y3r Avatar Optimizer 3.8.0

Add Repo to VCC

Features

• Add support for VRChat constraints.
• Add support for FinalIK components with the Delete Unused GameObjects option. (more)
• Add support for material variants. (more)
• Add support for global Packages include paths for local packages.
• Add support for prefab variants. (more)

Changes

• Changed default settings to match the Basic preset.
• Optimize on Upload is now called Apply on Upload.
• Generated shader include files now have more readable names than just hashes.

Since v3.7.0

Features

• Strip Meta pass from shaders that have it.

Changes

• Moved the code to ensure texture samplers exist at the end of the fragment instead of the beginning.
  • This improves performance with poi fur.
• Shaders that don't end in .shader or .orlshader are now explicitly marked as not supported.
• Removing unused bindings from clips only checks for specific property existence for Renderer bindings. All other types just check if the component exists for now.

Bug Fixes

• Fix viseme blendshapes and eyelid blendshapes sometimes not getting reassigned correctly if they aren't on a mesh named Body.
• Fix crash with missing scripts on the avatar.
• Fix the hardcoded _VirtualLens_Root exclusion not working for the Delete Unused GameObjects option.
• Fix shader optimizer not handling shaders correctly that declare _LightColor0 or _SpecColor manually instead of using the unity include. (more)
• Fix shader analyzer not parsing default values for function parameters. (more)
• Fix Merge Same Dimension Textures merging textures with different filter or wrap settings.
• Fix Delete Unused GameObjects not marking the phys bone root as moving when it has multiple children that are all but one ignored.
• Fix RenderersHaveSameAnimationCurves only checking if the keyframe values match and ignoring the keyframe times.
• Fix removing unused animation clip bindings not respecting the Exclusions list.
