i can name someone els off that does really neat work soulskor does some neat stuff but sadly i think for what he does some of the things he has made that it might be too detailed for roblox to handle but i feel like the stuff thats being stuck out rn on the marketplace isn the best quality

Do bodies need to be R15 Compatible?

  • Yes, all avatars must be R15 because of their advanced animation and motion. R15 has 15 body parts which make it look and feel more realistic. R15 also has access to the latest animation technology like animate your avatar . Today, 98% of Roblox users have R15 avatars, so these new bodies and heads will be compatible with the avatar bodies and heads that most users have.

This is probably true if Roblox is considering all accounts ever created on their platform, but it would be nice if they showed the true ratio of R15/R6 since probably most accounts on the platform have been inactive (accounting for probably if not millions of throwaway accounts, etc.) for maybe at least a year or two, and with Roblox doing some things "changing a bunch of inactive accounts from R6 to R15 around 2017" and probably more little things like how every new account around the same time to present day being automatically put into R15.

Also just checked it out but it looks a bit difficult now (haven’t been on the avatar page for awhile) for new users to even find the Body Type Slider in the avatar section since it’s tucked in Head & Body > Scale > Body Type Slider (it even looks a bit more difficult to find/know about on mobile since you have to scroll all the way down when you get to the Scale area) instead of it just possibly being a small slider on the front of the avatar editor page.

so I wonder why 98% percent of Roblox “users” (should’ve specified it as accounts) have R15 avatars instead of R6 :upside_down_face:

edit: yeah I know I’m like 1-2 weeks late on this post but all of my posts are like that since I don’t really use Roblox much except like a few times a month and even less on the Devforum

as of right now ive been waiting since april 7th there is people on this fourm that has waited for 2 years and got no reply yet theres also people who just applied 2-3-4 month ago that just got in the ugc program and yet those who are still waiting is put in the dark im not saying its a waste becuse it builds experience to make things and try different styles but rn alot of us has been waiting and have not heard anything from them at all what im more saying is that they are focus more on release to the public instead of putting the time to go through those who has not only took there time and effort and also have mostly deleted and redid there project over and over again to get better i feel like those who have applied should and deserve the chance to get in and get accepted way before they release it to the public.

from what i keeping getting told is they let 15 people in per month could have increased since then but thats what ive been told they also do not go down a a,b,c,d, order they just go through them. if they dont reply to those who applied then they mostly skipped over alot of people is what im thinking again i feel like they have left those who has potential in the dark and they are focused on public release becuse rn its open to very very limited verified users

already mentioned this to this guy over comms but for anyone else to see, here’s why the 98% is actually accurate

ok so roblox has around 4.9 billion accounts with 200 million monthly active users right? that comes out to around 4.7 billion inactive accounts. Most of those accounts were made after r15 as bots or alts, and many of those users never switched to r6. Out of the many that did, or those that were r6 prior to r15 being added, roblox has forced many of them into r15. This would lead to almost all of those 4.7 billion inactive accounts being r15.

4.7/4.9 would be 95.9183673% but we’ll round up to 96%. That means we have 4% of users that are active. 2% of those have to be r15 to get to 98%, which leaves 2% being r6. This means that we have 2% that are active and r15 and 2% that are active and r6. A roughly equal split.

I’m sure that there are more users that are r15 than r6, but if you do the math it comes out to users being split 50/50, and if you go into games that allow both avatar options, this looks to be the case. Sure r15 and r6 tend to be divided by audience and genre (almost every game where your hitbox matters that doesn’t have a custom character is r6, for instance, whereas most RP or social games are r15 only)

A bit annoying with how roblox is accepting users. I’ve got premium 1000 and ID verification (which people have rumored is the requirements for public UGC) and I have what I’d consider at least to be pretty good UGC items, yet both my applications I’ve sent were skipped, one in September and one in November. The fact a worse UGC creator that applied at a later date can get added in before me because roblox skips over users is outrageous.

Yes i know but @Taragaeot is right, this only our chance to get in one time for ever on UGC Program or we risk to need wait months or after we need keep resend application many times without any response!

yup thats what i was trying to tell loah that theres people that have been waiting and got skipped yet others have sent theres within weeks and got in.

Well yes but at all i read its isnt completely public, there require premium 1k or 2k and id verification so we can say not everyone has premium so high on roblox mybe it going increase premium people but i’m sure most of people or young people without id verification or premium cant get in program for ruin it, then sure anyways its going release late 2023 so they have enough time for try find solution about people break TOS.

Two sentences do not convince me. We’ve had this problem for years with shirts, why are people complaining about it just now?

Winnie the Pooh is in the public domain which means this item is allowed.

Would be a waste of buying the original headless for others, rather than buying the cheap fake headless, roblox does deletes it after that :PP.

hey, to each his/her/their own. i prefer r6, you prefer r15

Why can’t ugc creators make R6 compatible bundles?

1 Like

It’s because Roblox wants all bundles to be realistic-looking, so the bundles have to be compatible with R15.

I meant why can’t they support R6 on top of R15.
