Hey yall,  
got a weird one. just figured out my 2 year long project for one of my avatars is actually defined as a world project in the creator companion, which is limiting me from installing certain packages through the VCC. Ultimately, this hasn’t been an issue until i tried to install Shiapria’s Netsync visibility to check it out, when i found out i couldn’t, because it is a world project. is there any way i can change this over without rebuilding the entire project?

Does the UI let you remove the world package? I think you can. Just remove world, add avatar.

I just tried on the last version of VCC and it seems you can indeed remove the VRChat SDK - World package and install back the avatar one and that should “mark” your project as an avatar project and not a world anymore.
