>>2634239It's probably a combination of lack of patience, general social anxiety, and hatred of discord.
You can make a post here asking for a model, go do something else, and check back in a few days. There's very little time sink investment involved in order to procure what you desire. It's a lot faster than downloading a social program that you likely don't care to use, find a community, and make friends. Because, I mean, you do have to make friends. Which leaves those with social anxiety fighting an uphill battle. And to top it all off, most people sharing do so over discord, and I get it, I hate discord too, but it's how things are done.
It still doesn't change my statement above. For those users who really want to use the model for VRChat, they likely already have it, because they already have that social structure in place. So you're not excluding anyone like you think you are. Posting only the fbx and textures isn't going to gatekeep anyone or keep the community here fully centered around MMD. All you're doing is being petty, and discouraging other people from sharing in general because of the atmosphere it creates.
I think most everyone here needs to realize that the community is larger than what any one person that thinks he knows what the rules are. It's okay to like MMD and VRC at the same time. They're very similar interests, and we should come together instead of trying to exclude and frustrate whole segments of the community by creating closed but not even locked doors.
But that's just my opinion. You're free to call me a Tourist, tell me to fuck right off, and share or not share whatever you want.
>>2634240Most of the time, base shader information is included with the materials, which are part of the fbx...or at least, can be generated with a single button press (Use External Materials, which generates material information based on the textures.) A slightly larger detriment would be the loss of dynamic bone information, but only for OCDs.
