Getting Started
Welcome! and thanks for your support!
This quickstart guide is meant to serve as a jumpstart for project configuration. Most of the work is done automatically, but we have a few prerequisites to deal with.
If you have any issues, please feel free to ask for help in our Discord.
Dependencies
We require a few packages for our project to work correctly. These should be set up through the VRChat Creator Companion.
- Modular Avatar by _bd
- Poiyomi (Toon or Pro)
Optionally you may install VRCFury if you plan on using penetrators.
Startup
- Create a project with Unity 2022.3.22f1, and add the above dependencies to the project using VRCC. At a minimum your VRCC should look something like this:
- Import Poiyomi Pro 9.0.57+ or Poiyomi Toon 9.0.57+ from VRCC.
- Now you may import the AW_Init package.
ANGELWARE Initialization
- We have a fancy auto-installer package for our project setup. This package will automatically download required ANGELWARE packages, and check for any dependencies.
- When the installation has started, a login window will appear, use this to sign into your ADK account. This will grant you access to all of your owned products directly inside the editor!
- After sign-in is complete, the updater will download the latest versions of our plugins, and set up your project for you. Neat!
- If you are missing any dependencies, the installer will inform you of such. For this, you can open the link in your browser to add the repository to your VCC, then add the dependency to the project.
- Some dependencies will be automagically installed using OpenUPM, which will open your package settings window, you can just close this!
- Finally, check for any console errors before continuing!
ADK Setup
- You can launch the ADK window by using the ANGELWARE > ADK menu at the top of your screen.
- Double-check that you are logged in, in the bottom left of the window, if not you should do so now.
If everything is set up correctly, you should see your owned products appear in the main package window! If something is missing, try pressing the “Refresh” button in the bottom right.
If any packages are missing, or the download option is greyed out, you can unlock them with your order number by clicking ANGELWARE > Tools > License Key Input
. If this does not work please reach out to us in Discord, and we can get it sorted out ASAP!
