- A large number of spaces will be set up at each venue. We would like to have many gorgeous spaces lined up in a lively and fun venue.
- Meanwhile, to deal with the problems inherent to large-scale worlds, we will set rules for space creation.
- To maintain a comfortable playing environment for visitors by avoiding high load on the PC
- Avoid inconsistent formats that will cause difficulties for the organizers to check and manage the data
- Avoid fatal bugs such as instance crash resulting in VRChat crash or returning to other world
- Before submission, make sure to check the compliance with the submission rules. Please use the submission tool (hereinafter referred to as VketTools) provided by the organizer.
- Please note that if the submitted space does not comply with the submission rules, the organizers may request a resubmission.
- Even if the space complies with the submission rules, if the space is deemed problematic such as taking up a high load, the organizers may request a resubmission.
- In the case of spaces with a significantly small amount of information, the exhibitor may be asked to confirm after the submission period, and the space may be removed only if the confirmation cannot be obtained.
- Added a restriction that the resolution of images must be 1024×1024 or lower.
- Changed the description regarding image file size as follows:
- The image size will be in calculation for the build size, which must be fulfilled on submission.
- → The image file size is not included in the build size limit described below.
- Added the following rule:
- Objects must use layers other than UserLayer28-31.
- Updated the version of distributed shaders
- Updated the process so that shaders requiring VPM package installation must now be registered manually in VCC.
- Removed the following statement:
- Shaders with _CameraDepthTexture cannot be used to avoid issues of VR camera display.
- Changed Layer 30 to be used as the layer for DepthTexture generation.
- Item Exhibitions will be displayed in the format below:
- Item Pedestal
- The submitted item will be placed on the pedestal object provided by the development team. If you desire to display a smaller item, an alternative pedestal is available.
- The design of pedestal will be able for preview at the Preview World after submission.
- Item Pickup
- The item can be designated whether to allow Pickup or not.
- The Pickup gimmick will be implemented by the development team on placement. The Pickup position will synchronize, and reset to the original position when idle at a certain period of time.
- Avatar Pedestal

- If an item has an avatar pedestal, Pickup gimmicks cannot be designated.
- Caption Board
- A board for showing the product name and price will be displayed with the item.
- On interacting with the board, your circle webpage or the product's webpage will open.
- As the product's webpage, you may allocate product URLs only from websites below:
- Description Image
- As an option, a 1:1 square image can be added as an description.
- The image will be placed under the Caption Board.
- The resolution of the image must be 1024×1024 or lower.
