Introduction

In this article, we will show you how to set the VRChat world thumbnail to any image.

I will proceed on the assumption that world exists.
(World SDK3, assuming Udon Sharp already implemented.)

There may be some strange translations.

Creating Thumbnail Image

Create a thumbnail image in any image creation software.
Here we will use Affinity Designer.

Set the page width and height to 1024px.
Color fromat: RGB/8.
Press Create.

Create a rectangle with the Rectangle tool.

Set to 400px wide and 300px high in Transform.

Shift + Click → Drag to the edge of the screen and stretch it to the maximum screen size, keeping the 3:4 ratio.

Move the rectangle to the center.

Inside this rectangle, create the design you want as a thumbnail.
The trick is to create it while displaying a small preview in Navigator.
(Creating a thumbnail for Japanese event)

Export as png.

This completes the creation of the thumbnail material.

Notes on Thumbnail Creation

Thumbnails will have some information written over image.

Also, in the VRChat preview, the ratio of the thumbnails may change and the top and bottom may be cut off.

In some places, the entire image is displayed.
Therefore, trimming or shifting the position of text to accommodate will result in unnatural results.

Our recommendation is to place important information in the center.
Avoid placing it at the edge of the screen, for example.

Introduction of thumbnail material

Launch Unity.
Drag and drop the .png file exported to project.

Set the Inspector of the loaded image as shown below. (Optional)
Press Apply.
