OSC won't start with VPN on

Help!
1

Ok, so I have a VPN. If the VPN is off, OSC works, and when it’s on it doesn’t and I get this in the logs:
“Could not Start OSC: The requested address is not valid in this context”

Is there any way I can get OSC to work with my VPN ON.

The VPN software might matter.

Maybe ask the VPN maker about it? They’d be in a better position to download VRChat and see what the network interfaces are doing while the VPN is running. Especially if you’re not wanting to name the service you’re using.

Edit: Maybe you can tell VRChat a specific IP address to bind to, like 127.0.0.1

Thank you. 127 wasn’t the way to go, but here’s what did for future problem havers.

Launch option for VRChat in steam

–osc=9000:[local lan IP]:9001

Then the programs that needed to yell at VRChat needed to be excluded from the VPN, which is fine because I can split tunnel.

That’s it.

Thanks again.
