> [@polyjitter](#): > > Seems to indicate that tools like VRCFury or Vixen, which do automatic non-destructive workflow editing, will be banned. It seems the intent is to destroy the creator community. VRCFury and Vixen are not banned! As far as I know, these tools use the VRChat SDK to upload avatars. They do not upload content on the user’s behalf. > [@Sunset\_Gato](#): > > Are there any provisions for ‘co-authoring’ avatars that are heavy edits of someone else’s work? A way to split the payment of the ‘purchase’ to multi creators? We added a new section to the avatar details page called “Acknowledgements” that allows you to credit other creators. Of course, avatar sellers still need to respect the licensing terms of whatever assets they use. In your example, the seller may need to make a licensing agreement with the original asset creator. There’s no revenue splitting yet, but we’d love to add that feature! Avatar creation is a collaborative effort, and we’d love to make it easier. > [@Vincil](#): > > For the purpose of VRC’s Creator Guidelines, are avatars listed on the Avatar Marketplace always considered “public”? Yes, avatars on the marketplace should respect our guidelines for public avatars. > [@TrixxedHeart](#): > > In the case of providing source files, _(which I’m very disappointed now I’ll have the burden thrown onto me for that)_ what ways will creators have to confirm a user has purchased an avatar on VRChat? Sellers can see a transaction history of all purchases, including the names of buyers. (Current Creator Economy sellers already have access to this functionality - it’s not new.) > [@splitscream](#): > > If the avatar is broken, who maintains the avatar? Fortunately, we review avatars before they get published on the marketplace! Broken avatars are unlikely to get published. So avatars shouldn’t break - but if they do, we should be able to fix it. We **probably** won’t catch every issue, so if you find one, please let us know! > [@ToastedDrago](#): > > Im curious how this would effect commission based content. Will there be an option for private listings on the store? No, but that’s a great idea! When sellers publish an avatar product, it becomes available for purchase on the avatar marketplace for all users. > [@turtledude01](#): > > Will the avatars in the marketplace will be “Locked in” IE: The creator has to set the avatar and never modify it after it’s in the marketplace, or will they be able to make modifications to the avatar for updated features or fixes? Avatar creators can continue releasing updates! Improvements, bug fixes, etc. However, avatar creators can’t **completely** change an avatar. That would be unfair to existing buyers who expect something different! > [@turtledude01](#): > > If updates are allowed, Will these updates be moderated manually as well, requiring a waiting period prior to the avatar being updated for everyone? Yep! Avatar updates don’t go out immediately - sellers need to wait a bit. > [@GreenGj](#): > > Half of the questions aren’t actually answered here. Thank you for asking questions! I hope we can answer all of them, but it’ll take some time. 😄 I wish I could give you access to the marketplace right now! That would answer some questions.
