Offline rig
how do I make a offline rig so when i join a server that rig is gone and now showd the player prefab thing
KHi @RatCatcherVr. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. 
K----------------------
It sounds like you're asking about how to handle a local offline rig that should be replaced by a networked player prefab when connecting to a Normcore room.
To achieve this, you can use Normcore's offline mode functionality and then switch to online mode when connecting to a server. Here's how you can approach this:
It sounds like you're asking about how to handle a local offline rig that should be replaced by a networked player prefab when connecting to a Normcore room.
To achieve this, you can use Normcore's offline mode functionality and then switch to online mode when connecting to a server. Here's how you can approach this:
- Create a local offline rig that's active by default in your scene
- When connecting to a Normcore room, disable or destroy this offline rig
- Use RealtimeAvatarManager to instantiate the networked player prefab
KFor the networked player prefab, you'll want to use RealtimeAvatarManager which will automatically instantiate your avatar prefab when connected to a room. The RealtimeAvatarManager should be on the same GameObject as your Realtime component, and you'll need to set the localAvatarPrefab property to your player prefab. This prefab needs to include a RealtimeAvatar component on its root to function correctly.
When you connect to a room, the RealtimeAvatarManager will instantiate your player prefab and the offline rig will be disabled. When you disconnect, the player prefab will be destroyed and your offline rig will be re-enabled.
For more details on avatar management, check out the XR Avatars documentation.

Based on our previous conversation about setting up an offline rig that gets replaced by a networked player prefab when connecting to a Normcore room, here's a step-by-step guide to set it up:
For more detailed information about avatar setup, you can refer to the XR Avatars and Voice Chat guide which provides a complete walkthrough of setting up avatars in Normcore.
Based on our previous conversation about setting up an offline rig that gets replaced by a networked player prefab when connecting to a Normcore room, here's a step-by-step guide to set it up:
- **Create your offline rig**:
- Add your VR camera rig/player controller to your scene
- This will be your local representation when not connected to a Normcore room
- **Add Normcore components**:
- Add a GameObject to your scene
- Add a Realtime component to this GameObject
- Add a RealtimeAvatarManager component to the same GameObject
- Configure your App Key in the Realtime component
- **Create your networked avatar prefab**:
- Create a prefab for your networked avatar
- Add a RealtimeView component to the root
- Add a RealtimeAvatar component to the root
- Place this prefab in a Resources folder
- **Configure the RealtimeAvatarManager**:
- Set the "Local Avatar Prefab" field to your networked avatar prefab
- **Add the OfflineRigManager script**:
- Add the script I shared previously to your scene
- Assign your offline rig to the "Offline Rig" field
- Assign your Realtime component to the "Realtime" field
For more detailed information about avatar setup, you can refer to the XR Avatars and Voice Chat guide which provides a complete walkthrough of setting up avatars in Normcore.
KIf you're using Meta avatars, Normcore also has a specific implementation for that which you can learn about in the Meta Avatars guide.

Great! Since you already have your offline rig made, let's continue with the remaining steps to set up the switching between your offline rig and the networked player prefab:
Great! Since you already have your offline rig made, let's continue with the remaining steps to set up the switching between your offline rig and the networked player prefab:
- **Add Normcore components to your scene**:
- Create an empty GameObject in your scene
- Add a Realtime component to this GameObject
- Add a RealtimeAvatarManager component to the same GameObject
- Configure your App Key in the Realtime component (you can get this from the dashboard)
- **Create your networked avatar prefab**:
- Create a prefab that will represent players in the multiplayer room
- Add a RealtimeView component to the root of this prefab
- Add a RealtimeAvatar component to the root
- Place this prefab in a Resources folder in your project
- **Configure the RealtimeAvatarManager**:
- In the inspector, set the "Local Avatar Prefab" field to reference your networked avatar prefab
- **Add the OfflineRigManager script** to handle the switching:```csharpusing UnityEngine;using Normal.Realtime;public class OfflineRigManager : MonoBehaviour { [SerializeField] private GameObject offlineRig; [SerializeField] private Realtime realtime; private void Awake() { // Make sure offline rig is active by default if (offlineRig != null) offlineRig.SetActive(true); // Subscribe to Realtime connection events realtime.didConnectToRoom += DidConnectToRoom; realtime.didDisconnectFromRoom += DidDisconnectFromRoom; }
Kprivate void DidConnectToRoom(Realtime realtime) {
// When connected to a room, disable the offline rig
if (offlineRig != null)
offlineRig.SetActive(false);
}
private void DidDisconnectFromRoom(Realtime realtime) {
// When disconnected, re-enable the offline rig
if (offlineRig != null)
offlineRig.SetActive(true);
}
}
```

offlineRig.SetActive(false);
}
private void DidDisconnectFromRoom(Realtime realtime) {
// When disconnected, re-enable the offline rig
if (offlineRig != null)
offlineRig.SetActive(true);
}
}
```
- Add this script to your scene:
- Add the OfflineRigManager script to a GameObject in your scene
- Assign your existing offline rig to the "Offline Rig" field
- Assign your Realtime component to the "Realtime" field

To connect to an offline room in Normcore, you can use the parameter in the struct when calling the method. This is useful for singleplayer games, tutorials, or experiences that don't require an internet connection.
Here's how to connect to an offline room:

Important things to know about offline mode:
- Make sure to uncheck "Join Room on Start" on the Realtime component if you're manually calling
- The

in offline mode0 - The datastore state is cleared when you call
- It's not possible to have two local clients connect to the same offline room
- RealtimeComponents and scripts developed for online use will continue to function in offline mode without changes

K@kapa.ai you dont have to initialize _realtime to anything in this code?
using Normal.Realtime;
using UnityEngine;
public class OfflineModeExample : MonoBehaviour {
[SerializeField]
private Realtime _realtime;
private void Start() {
// Notify us when Realtime successfully connects to the room
_realtime.didConnectToRoom += DidConnectToRoom;
// Connect to "My Room" in offline mode
_realtime.Connect("My Room", new Room.ConnectOptions {
offlineMode = true
});
}
private void DidConnectToRoom(Realtime realtime) {
if (realtime.room.offlineMode) {
Debug.Log($"Connected to room in offline mode!");
}
}
}

You're right to question this! In the code example, is marked with but not initialized in the code itself. This is because:
The attribute exposes the private field in the Unity Inspector, allowing you to assign the Realtime component through the Unity Editor rather than in code.
Here's how you would set it up:
If you prefer to initialize it in code instead, you could modify the script like this:

Here's how you would set it up:

- Drag and drop a GameObject that has a Realtime component onto this field, or use the object picker to select it

I understand that you might be feeling lost with the Normcore setup we've been discussing. Let me simplify things for you:
Simple Steps to Set Up Offline/Online Switching
- **For your offline rig (which you already have):**
- This is your local player representation when not connected to a server
- **For Normcore connection:**
- Add a GameObject with a Realtime component to your scene
- Add a RealtimeAvatarManager to the same GameObject
- Set your App Key in the Realtime component
- **For your networked avatar:**
- Create a prefab with RealtimeView and RealtimeAvatar components
- Put it in a Resources folder
- Set this as the "Local Avatar Prefab" in the RealtimeAvatarManager
- **For switching between them:**
- Add the OfflineRigManager script we discussed
- Connect it to your offline rig and Realtime component

Mthe error message says you have multiple Realtime in the scene and have to specify which one you are using. Easiest fix is to remove the other Realtime.
