Doing Friday night Assetto Corsa at SRP with some Wangan Midnight cars tonight at 8PM ET (about 18.5 hours from now).After that (around 10PM ET), we'll be watching the Wangan Midnight movie in VRC.The server is set up with Sol for night driving and comfy map for teleports, both are optional, but highly recommended.All of the mods and DLC should be in the links below, and the server is up if you want to test anything.server: vrg racingpass: tfwnodriftfuvoice chat (mumble): voice.vrg.partytrack download (Stable Release 0.9.3): https://shutokorevivalproject.com/additional mods: https://mega.nz/folder/xN4EGDiC#cvLFrD3kTpS_8pU7eNVvPwDLC: https://mega.nz/folder/hNgHTIrb#utSeSx4mqKjcMYfwiI67sgSol guide: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n9eEFSVV4CTrDpQQW0uqtc_sKDssjKv7/view
>>502298441 # The claims on the video "moving ions one by one" are not physically realistic. The device looks like it has gel electrodes array to increase contact area - bigger contact area will not burn. Device might also have magnetic stimulation too, looking how the thing is coil shaped, but it might be just made to look like that. Electric current to the head, or magnetic somulation should not be applied frivolously, and broadly like this device would. Althougg its possible to mess with perception using broad electrical and magnetical stimulation, this looks like a techbro scam shit aimed at gullible twitter idiots. Look how nothing is explained expect some handwaving on a video and the website doesnt have any details what the company even does.
>>502299332Man I want it to be so real so bad though. Been a decade of people trying to figure out how to stimulate and fake vestibular sense for balance so VR sickness is cured.This can also be a pre-req for full-dive VR.you know how for nerves to produce electricity, chemicals need to pass through their gates?That's probably what they are doingutilizing the nerve's ability to create electricity instead of poking in their own electricity by forcing some ions through. Na ions or Cl ions was it?
Not that anon, but I felt like shit after the first few hours with a VR headset on. It's gotten better, but large amounts of movement that don't correspond to physical movements are still bad after an hour or so, though no where near as bad as the first time, where I felt unwell for the entire rest of the evening.That twitter video seems like tech bros blowing smoke up each others asses and it's not even clear what they are controlling from the video. Is it supposed to be some kind of inner-ear stimulation using electromagnets? I know very little about neuroscience but I don't think it works that way. I bet they will get a lot of money from other techbros though.
>>502299556You are either an idiot or their employee.
>>502299631I already told you I am just an optimist in the VR space.
>>502299672Dont fall for scams then. How is their electrode vehind ear is supposed to manupulate microscopic voltage gated ion channels of neural cells except of just running electric current through your brain?Yes, you can fuck eith inner ear by running transcranial current. But it will jot just fuck eith inner ear, the current of a few electrodes behind ears cannot be accurately controlled, I would not use their device even if it work as they claimed to induce leaning sensations.
>>502299672Something I find more interesting/promising are the real devices used to grant amputees some limited control over prostheses. Those devices today require the nerves to be surgically moved to be closer to the skin, and no right minded able bodied person would want that, but it could allow amputees to control a virtual limb to the same degree that they could control a prosthesis, without having to wear a prosthetic limb to do it, which would be a very good thing for accessibility in VR gaming.
>>502300175All being said, I wouldnt mind having neuralink to control ears or tail or extra limbs of my avatar. Or tonhave tingling sensations injected into some areas of my body. Those few paralyzed people who got neuralink can controll a computer mouse extremely well and don't seem to have any discomfort.
>>502300637Invasive surgeries of any kind are extremely risky. All of the animals used for neuralink testing have died, and invasive brain implants for humans have only ever been tested on terminally ill for a very good reason. Wanting an invasive brain surgery from a techbro company just to have more immersive control in VR is insane.As for VR sickness, I found it helped a lot when I moved some furniture around to give me a larger VR area so I can move around more with my body instead of the controllers. Those meme images where people have no furniture are kind of sad, but I think there is no shame in getting the most out of your space for the things you enjoy doing.
>>502302053All animals in all animal studies of that kind are killed and examined, its the usual. Fuck off with your sensationalist musk hate.
Contractors today at 19:00 UTC/ 20:00 CETMod list will be posted later. We'll be using PMC Casual and W40K loadouts.

All suggestions are welcome
Good morning, anon!Reminder that there will be an instance hosted at 21:00 CET in VRChat for everyone to hop on and hang out.That's in roughly 11 hours and 30 minutes. I hope to see you there!
>tfw checking out some PCVR discussions/YT vids prior to Quest 2 launching and churning mobile-shit everywhere and downgraded sequelsMan, people were so hopeful for the future of PCVR.>>502304210How is the syncing of network options in it? I haven't checked out the multiplayer mod at all for Bonelab due to being SORELY FUCKING DISAPPOINTED in what the game ended up being relative to Boneworks.
Jesus F, this has made it's way to FB.reel/1750672649020233
>see y on boomer parents phone as they soon scroll Facebook >hey anon, is this what you’re doing on your VR googles at 3am?It’s over
>>502307258>28 thousand likes
>>502307174Depends on what your expectations are. On one hand, it's often janky, sometimes physics explode in a violent manner whenever you're doing something less correct than game would like you to do, every now and then you can hear about one anon having a spawn-gun-spawned mob around him and then no one else can see it. On the other hand, god damn, we had fun sword fights, fist fights, we've been building pillow castles, driving cars with eight people inside. You can throw anons around, you can spawn dumbest shit, weld it together with constraints and everyone's seeing it in sync. Personally, I'm extremely impressed with how well this mod multiplayer runs, but again, it depends on your expectations. It's not a polished AAA experience, but in my book, any game that allows multiplayer physics interactions of quality that allow you to parry anon's sword with your sword is beyond amazing.
>>502308136I'm fine with jank, I guess how I should have worded it is how well does it recover from unexpected shit, and how stable is it overall? Eg. Crashing due to too much shit, or something going weird that causes a crash.
>>502308417Dawww what a cute drawing anon. Any lore for thos /vrg/ headset drawing and why is there the number 8 on the upper left?
>>502308435regular gameplay is fine, the game will only shit itself if you do really crazy stuff with constraints or purposely spawn too many game objects.
is this how you get your sick kicks?
Hmm is it worth spending $8000 on a robot arm?
>>502309567this nigga like george jettson, robots flying around his house doing his dishes and jerkin him off
>>502308750I was too tired to play any games today and it's the 8th shitty drawing I've done since I decided to start numbering them
>>502309965You should draw your friends.
>>502308435Crashes sometimes happen, but primarily due to levels being not exactly multiplayer-ready. In main hub level, or in gmod city level that has no mechanics whatsoever, I can't remember having a crash even once. When too much shit gets spawned (or in 12+ people situations), game gets slow and that's about it. Last game, we had two crashes through 2-3h long game iirc, and we're exploring new levels from external mods a lot. It's not hopeless - if anything, the biggest annoyances are usually related to the fact that when players get respawned after death, they're occasionally getting a huge force applied, then they fly off the map, and then you have to keep a gun in equipment to be able to kill yourself or else level has to be restarted to bring a person back into game.A good chunk of boner anons are joining weekly and they still didn't got sick of it, so hey, I guess value has to overweight the inconvenience for them. One or two crashes and falling out of the map are clearly not enough of an issue for them to give up on enjoying the physics sandbox with fellow anons. I dunno, if you say you're fine with jank and you want to do dumb stuff together, I'd say setting it up and giving it a shot at least once is an effort well spent.
oops
>>502311473I SAID JUMP
>>502312015If I remember correctly, he said 'left over jump' and I was like HOW MUCH LEFT and got distracted and messed up. The call was literally just 'left'. Not slight left, not 6 left. Just left. I suppose left is somewhere between slight left and 6 left.

>>502317667Being scared of spiders is fine, being scared of pixels is retarded
>>502317757If you were so scared of thirst and hunger that you couldn't play Minecraft then yes it would be reddit tier

>>502311473Are you expected to keep your wheel's recentering strength as loose as possible for Rally racing? I had a rough time trying to get anything done at a decent speed on Dirt Rally 1's VR mode years ago. Mostly been just playing Assetto Corsa street tracks since.
>>502320068Depends on the wheel, stronger wheels will obviously be harder. On my G29 I keep Force feedback at MAXIMUM. I guess it also depends if you have a full force feedback wheel or just a cringe ass central spring one.
>>502320068as in, centering spring effect? I run without it, just like asscorsa, works fine for me. Then again, I loosely remember playing DR1 long time ago and copying FFB settings from the internet for G27 because default setup was trash, so maybe that's what got you as well.In DR2/WRC, I just kept defaults.
>>502320765'Centring spring' confuse me a bit because on FFB wheels that's the setting that kicks in when there is no force feedback. The car's motion determines how hard the wheel centers when there's real FFB
>>502320068FFB wheels dont have "recentering force" if everything works properly. If the only effect you have is the recentiring force, your FFB is not working.You should be able to feel where the car "wants" to go, the surface, the loss of traction of front wheels, not just centering force.
>>502316726Knowing a creature's danger and respecting it is vastly different than running, screaming and flinging hands around
What are some good VR games with spiders?
>>502323184Metro Awakening
>>502323184do VR mods count?Satisfactory and Lethal company have good spidersHeadcrabs are kind of spiders so the HL seriesInto the radius has little creatures that are kind of spider likePretty sure ancient dungeon VR has some spider enemiesSubnautica has like... under water spidersunderdogs has a few spider-like bots that you fightHonestly not many VR spidersLegendary tales does NOT have spider enemies and that was a wasted opportunity
>>502323803>Honestly not many VR spidersThis is sad, it seems like a good enemy for vr games. You could have them crawl on the player and they'd have to physically slap them away
>>502323803You forgot Skyrim
>>502324354Metro Awakening....
>>502324787I already bought it
>>502307569Yes, yes it is mom
>>502323184Dungeons of Eternity have spiders, venomous spiders, jumping spiders, exploding spiders and jumping exploding spiders.
Any anons want to try Exocars multiplayer? Now or later before Contractors.
>>502328689No force feedback :(
>>502328689Yes, but TOO MANY GAAAAAMESalso need to buy it...How do you like singleplayer?
>>502328939We have Motorstorm at home kind of deal. Only one vehicle with no modding is disappointing but the actual driving feels good, the tracks are cool and it looks and runs good. It just feels like it could have used another month of dev time to put proper AI opponents in and fix the wheel controls.>>502328738It very obviously wasn't meant to be played with physical wheel, all the settings and controls are tailored for the virtual one. Maybe they will patch it later but right now even stick controls are better than trying to play with wheel.
>>502329438Ehh
>>502329438I don't care if the FFB is arcadey I want race
>>502308136>>502307174Now that I think about it, I don't know how it is even possible to have the object transforms so well synchronised.
>>502302204All the Warhammer 40K maps have weird terrain (which was a complain two weeks ago) and too many capture points so we'll play that loadout with regular maps.GSAC is buggy as usual so if it breaks (happened to me today) just unsubscribe and resubscribe to it ingame.Mod list:https://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-bo1-nuketownhttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-bo2-raidhttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-csgo-mcdonaldshttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-mw2-sub-basehttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-mw2-estatehttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-bo4-summithttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-mw2-terminalhttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-bo4-haciendahttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/q-mw19-hackney-yardhttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/pmc-casualhttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/w40khttps://mod.io/g/contractors/m/gunsmokeandcharmclassic

What VR games would you say have the best playerbase? I've tried VRChat and Contractors but online is just a lot of screaming kids that I don't have the patience to deal with. A lot of other games are straight up dead.
>>502338275Gorilla Tag, Rec Room, VRChatAll of them have screaming children, enjoy.
After going through the gamut of the big name VR gamesI've come to the conclusion that Blade and Sorcery just kind of sucks
>>502338130>y-you already own an xbox, p-please buy our games
>>502338130Do they all have Uno though?
>>502338275the trick to all social spaces both online and real life is that you can actively choose who you hang out withif you do not enjoy hanging out with kids, you can just hang out with like minded adults instead
>>502329821>>502302204Cumtractors in 1 hourAlso>page 10
>>502346705I wanted to see if I could find something decent in VR games as getting anyone I know to buy a headset and play a game more than once would be like herding cats. I just found it strange how young some of these playerbases skew as it's not like I'm playing Fortnite or anything explicitly for kids. Games like Hover Junkers and Vox Machinae sound cool but the reviews and steam numbers make it seem like I'm not going to find anyone online for them.
>>502349546Hover Junkers is like a 2015/2016 game, yeah you're not going to find anyone playing it anymore.Multiplayer VR is still mostly dominated by free games like VRChat and Gorilla Tag, which of course attract children.

Is constant VR issues something everyone just deals with?I recently upgraded to a 4080 Ti. I also have a AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D as well as 32 gb of ram. I would expect to not have to deal with stutters anymore. And while it got a lot better I'm still having some annoying issues like:1. Image flickering if I go in and out of the steam overlay menu where you can access your computer applications2. Heavy stutters and freezes on startup if I didn't turn off or reboot my computer the night before.3. In beat saber after finishing a song they will use light brightness levels for transitions and sometimes it won't like go fully back up to 100% for about 30 seconds.I'm using a Vive pro 2 with two base stations and valve index controllers.I just wanna be able to hop into VR whenever without issues...
>>502364804>I'm using a Vive
>>502364804reinstall windows
>>502364962Are there reported issues similar to what I mentioned or is this just like console wars but for VR?I wouldn't mind getting a Index 2 if that ever comes out. :^)
>>502364804I don't have any of those issues.I agree with the other anon, reinstall windows.If you're still getting these issues after reinstalling windows, maybe your HMD is fucked.
>>502364804did you reinstall windows after you upgraded?
>>502365470>>502365814>>502365878In the current year I didn't really consider windows fuckups to be a cause of such problems. But I might as well try this. It is fairly easy and quick these days too.
>>502364804>The GeForce RTX 4080 Ti is a graphics card by NVIDIA, that was never released.so I'm going to assume you meant 4070Ti.At 12gb you really shouldn't be running into VRAM issues at startup, but it's always a possibility, especially if you've got something else hogging it over time, thus requiring a reboot. Monitor the Dedicated GPU Memory graph of your GPU in task manager when problems occur. Keep in mind that opening the steam overlay will lower the resolution of the game and thus also GPU memory usage.Running out of GPU Memory/VRAM is probably the most common cause of completely-unplayable levels of heavy stutters
>>502366069well reinstalling windows, also reinstalls all the steamvr related drivers. you could fully wipe all the steamvr stuff and reinstall that first, if you want
>>502366195Sorry. I meant 4080 super which seems to have 16gb of VRAM. Looked up the 4090 Ti now and it got 24 gb of VRAM. I'm jealous.
>>502365878i thought windows just worked
>>502366630pajeets ruined it
>>5023648041. Valve broke something in the latest stable steamvr and it stutters when you go into overlay and close it for many wired headsets not only Vive Pro 2. Try swapping to "previous" branch in beta tabs. Also new beta fixed the stuttering, but introduced similar issue - instead of stutter the starry sky of steamvr background can get randomly overlayed for some time in your game.2. Switch to beta version of Vive Console - they fixed the startup and shutdown hand. Also, update your bios to latest. Old Ryzen bioses had some weird issue with GPU being able to saturate the whole PCIe and USB bus and everything hanged. Update bios or limit your GPU to PCIe gen 3 in bios settings.3. Vive Pro 2 has automatic dimming to increase contrast, can disable it in json here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\VIVEDriver\App\ViveVRRuntime\ViveVR\ViveVRServer\config\default.vrsettingsor here:C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\VIVEDriver\App\ViveVRRuntime\ViveVR\ViveVRServer\config\default.vrsettingsOpen in notepad, search for brightness, then you will find it... t. fellow vive pro 2 user
>>502355098good gaming gamers
>>502355098Good gaming everyone
i think maxxing the virtual desktop brithness fixed the game somewhat.its still dark but not 'i cant see where im going' dark.the shotgun is amazing, the blowdart gun... honestly feels kinda retarded idk why they added it they should have put the compressed air gun or railgun or something
>>502367818there is a brightness setting in gameAlso reminder that h264/h265 compressor really like to crush dark areas and not give them bandwith...
>>502367954yea i maxxed it tooit looked dark af even with it maxxed
>>502367818the game looks pretty coolwish it had a full body instead of floating hands though
>>502367351Thanks a lot vive friend. I'll do all of this + a windows reinstall tomorrow morning. I'm feeling hopeful about this fixing all of my issues.
>>502355098Don't really like the PMC mod after playing it more. I don't think the instant time to kill works well on these maps with such long sightlines and no predictability in the spawns. It just encourages holding an angle in the corner of the map so no-one can spawn behind you and shooting anyone is is moving before they even see you.
>>502368354like bonelab?nah it's jank af shooters should all just copy HLalyx and in alyx its floating hands.in games that have melee,climbing,acrobatics like blade and sorcery it makes sense
>>502369276Alyx's VR implementation was extremely outdated on release and I'm tired of everyone pretending it is somehow special to this day.
>>502355098I love the 40K mod so muchGG and thanks for hosting
>>502369707it did a lot of details perfectly, avoiding inverse-kinematic arms was one of them.maybe in the next big leap in headsets we'll get automatic arm tracking fed to the same but until that day im fine with floating hands
>>502370149> a lot of details perfectlyLike what?
>>502370809all the hand interactions, from gravity gloves to flicking the shotgun closed.if you also had an elbow showing up in game and not being where your real one is it would have been a worse experiance than just floating hands
>>502369276>shooters should all just copy HLalyx and in alyx its floating handsArm IK is worth it over floating hands when the appearance of those arms is relevant to the immersion. Most VR game are still playing as a generic human so it's irrelevant but if you're playing as a non-generic character like the droids in the Star Wars Contractors mod then it adds a lot of immersion to see it visually represented on the virtual body.Games with gear and character customization like Skyrim also benefit enough from being able to see your equipment that it's worth the instances of jank that current IK occasionally encounters.
>>502371035Any hand interaction with the world was awful in my opinion. The rotational crank and the train track lever immediately spring to mind. They were obviously driving an animator and felt completely off.
How do anons feel about some Vox or Iron Rebellion multiplayer tomorrow, 18 or 19 GMT?
>>502373334i'd hop on IR
>>502369276Man that rat fight when you need to hold on, no time to rewind the flashlight, green eyes just zigzaging and darting in the dark. Oh my god, that the shit, that was good fucking fight, Metro is truelly a VR shooter ludo kino.
>>502373334That's the Bonelabs timeslot which may affect your turnout.
>>502374175as for the flashlight i got the same problem i had with the flat metro games. i dont like 'manual recharging' flashlights in games because i just keep recharging them every 30 seconds and some of the fights are pretty intense, at the arena fights ('beat every monster in the room before you can go on') you can usually stand with your back to a wall so they cant get behind you but if you dont manage ammo well in this game you're gonna need to start switching to the helsing,kalash,pisol... in the middle of a fight which gets intense
metro is too scary for me to finish

Highly recommend installing stable custom shader patch and 7-zip plugin in Content manager.For communication we'll use mumble at voice.vrg.party port 64738, as it doesn't need any registrations or logins.https://www.mumble.info/I can't recomend enough Crew Chief https://thecrewchief.org/He's a helpfull AI fellow in the pits who'll provide you information about your car, your opponents, yell at you or try to encourage you. And most importantly, he will spot for you, in case you have a car in you blind spot.UI radar are immersion breaking and basically cheating, but this guy will tell you verbally if someone is there on your right. Download, install, select Asseto Corsa in game list, press "Start application" and it should work!NO MODS THIS TIME!
>>502367818Airlink, Steamlink, and VD had vastly different black levels.Airlink is, for better or worse, the the best of the bunch.VD need gamma increased to about 1.2 to match Airlink's dark detail, but then everything else is far too bright.Steamlink does something similar to enabling Video Levels in VD. Turns out that option doesn't work as intended and the Quest side is unable to display the full range, but he kept it in there because some people like it that way. tl;dr all dark detail is discarded.If you're running a Quest3, do enable the Content Adaptive Brightness Control in the experimental settings. In addition to lowering the brightness in dark scenes, it also adjust the contrast so you can actually see things in the dark. It's a shame that even the tiniest bit of light anywhere will disable it, but it's great for dim environments.
>>502375753yea the atmosphere is top notch. it gets less scary once you get used to the cues the game gives you before you face any enemy so the general eerie atmosphere becomes less scare (for example you can hear nosalis/lurkers before you have to fight them usually and you'll see spiderwebs and small spiders before any big ones that can damage you)what i dont like too is sometimes the spooky music peaks in intensity while there's absolutely nothing going on but i psychologically cant walk into an unknown room while 'there's a nosalis RIGHT BEHIND YOU ABOUT TO KILL YOU' type music is on full blast

new vrchat beta with vram management and streaming mipmaps is fucking greatshowing all avatars, and its not exceeding vram
>>502382325nice I don't need to optimize anymore
>>502382548i can now see how madly very poor avatars eat cpu cycles, shits fucked
>>502382751
>>502382325nice, happy for you poorfag
>>502382325what's streaming mip maps? Does it override all the texture settings by default?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/220/HalfLife_2/Half Life 2 + the episodes is freepick it up and go play the VR mods
>>502385068it allows to load lower res versions of textures on the fly, when you don't have enough vram for example
>>502385714neat. I know mipmaps are usually baked in for CPU cycles saving, but streamed ones are for VRAM savings eh.
>>502299189Reminder, Assetto at SRP in 45 minutes

>>502387112there is no option, its automaticMipmap streaming has been enabled.This will dynamically load lower-resolution textures for Avatars and Worlds into VRAM as needed, meaning much more can be loaded before you start running into issues (stuttering, avatars failing to load, and hard crashes).On PC, the budget is set once on load based on your GPU's available VRAM, with a little wiggle room left for the OS.

It is EU Bonelabs day!
>>502295067>those video game characters you meet in VRchat are actual real people with emotions, goals and agency...Actually some you guys are fake as shit and haven't changed in years in terms of personality, job status, marriage status, etc.
>>502390856>not changing is fakeAnon you have to expand your vocabulary. Not changing just means "Stagnant"I do want to have a wife though, I've been looking
>>502390856spoken like a true psychopath keeping records of everyone's personal details and a log entry for actions and mannerismsI applaud your efforts, anon
>>502391079>I do want to have a wife thoughin THIS economy?!*studio laughter*
>>502299189Assetto Corsa starting now, server details are in the previous post if you're interested
>>502390856past a certain point people stop growing up and start growing old instead. it has ever been thus
>>502391174I can support three wives and twenty four children right now if I wanted to. It's just difficult to find someone compatible with me. Got a few prospects and making some moves
>>502390856Actually I went from wageslave to supervisor and now my job is much worse for 2% extra pay!
>>502391693Congratulations anon! How many more hrs do you work thanks to your promotion?
>>502391753I get paid for one hour less but now they get to harass me 24/7.
>>502392065J-joy... supervisor roles that are required to ensure that the team operates properly obviously needs a higher pay when you are on-call out of work hours as well.
>>502392065that sounds like a quit on the spot type deal bro
>>502392263nta but most supervisors I've had in my career do fuck all most of the day, belittle employees, pass over promotion-eligible employees to give themselves a bonus, and other bad behavior. Whenever they catch shit for it they do a total 180 and start micromanaging.
>>502393818How do I as an owner of a company prevent this? I don't want to have managers be doing useless shit and actually do their job of ensuring the work process is smooth for his team
>>502393976dont hire certain people
>>502394043You have to be specific here. This is going into /biz/ territory but let's imagine we have a VR company. How do we make sure that the manager for the hardware division does his job as a manager properly? Essentially what are the systems necessary to prevent bad managers doing office politics and even preventing getting bad managers installed in the first place?
>>502394319managers primarily waste space and waste time, while also wasting other workers' timesame can be said for pretty much all middle-management positionsthey exist to put butts in seats and that's about ithonestly a flat hierarchy system sounds much better than all of the overbuilt corporate systems I've had the misfortune of working in, but it might be a grass is always greener thing and maybe workplaces are all just adult daycares after all
>>502394642>flat hierarchy systemhas no common direction, that works for smaller but numerous projectsany project bigger than 10 people needs someone leading the direction so tasks are properly delegated and getting done for the common goal of getting shit donehaving someone to blame if shit goes bad (the responsible person) is also important in this regardthe manager is always at fault if his division is under-performing
>>502394990putting a butt in a seat to use as a scapegoat is not actually helping anyonecompanies wasting time on rehiring the churn for this kind of thing over actual people doing work is way too commonI have yet to meet a single person in a management/middle-management role that has ever left me with an impression that they are doing anything helpfulperhaps restructuring the work in mind to avoid needing that retarded chain of command and monkey-wrangling is the winner
Can anyone suggest some VRC games/worlds for 2 people to have fun in together? Maybe I should specify non-ERP
>>502395301Ah I think I saw a few differences on what a "manager" for me vs what a "manager" for you is.For me a "manager" should be able to fill in and do any and all of the work his co-workers do under him. He is a manager not because he needs to just check up if people is doing their job. He is a manager cause he can visualize the output needed of him and all the work needed to deliver it. The only reason he can't do it all is because of time constraints of being a single dude. He should be able to do it all in theory given enough time, so to be able to deliver it on the deadline, I'll get him some co-workers to be under him.I'm a firm believer of hiring and promoting from the team who does the work rather than getting "professional managers".
>>502394319I am the supervisor from before. In my experience, managers are bad because someone above them is putting impossible pressure on them and they're not just intentionally being bad. I personally refuse to scapegoat others below me, but I am at the bottom of the stack and it gets much worse higher up. I don't think I could endure being a manager. The root problem is likely out of anyone's control and no-one at any point in the chain of command actually wants this. We much all pretend there's a simple solution because the alternative is despair.

>>502395904That's a good perspective from the manager's / supervisor's side. Yeah there's definitely a balance to all these that are more complex than one would think initially.
>>502395724>For me a "manager" should be able to fill in and do any and all of the work his co-workers do under him.that would be nice, more of a team lead it sounds likemost companies don't do this and waste hours of multiple workers' time each day while also meeting with other managers above and below them all day so that they forget what they were doing or planning and repeat this ad nauseum
>>502396109You know how when you're a child you think adults actually know what they're doing but then you reach adulthood and don't really know anything? It's the same thing. Everyone is just pretending all the way up.
>>502396308>Everyone is just pretending all the way up.Funny you say all that. I have been disillusioned by people a few years back and have stopped assuming that " they are correct and should just follow them. ""Everyone is dumb until proven otherwise" is now my new motto.It has helped me a lot in all the plans I want to do and enact.I feel so much more at ease and actually get shit done now thanks to this.

>>502405714Thank you for your hard work, good job.
>>502382325This is literally the best feature VRChat has implemented since 2017. You can just show everyone. It JUST WORKS. It will never go over your VRAM. At worst it will just load low resolution textures of avatars instead. This how it should have been ALWAYS.
>>502406561Indeed. Cama, Orenji and Uzugu did well recording and splicing for this one. We'll improve along as we go along from here on out too
I got side tracked and made a heelys like locomotion for FBT users. My goal was to make it not interfere with walking around or have it trigger randomly. It works by having you angle your heel up and kicking your leg. If its fast enough, and touching the ground, it triggers the gliding, which scales on how hard you kick and you steer with your kicking foot which feels pretty intuitive. Still polishing it up but it works good enough where it won't trigger when walking around. Though sometimes when running. At first I thought I would try to use the COM to apply the velocity but that was not fun as you had to really kick into the leg with a lot of force to trigger it. So i just made it use the velocity of the foot instead.

very fun. A full tournament would be a cool event.
>>502405714>>502406561Just noticed rumble is limited to 480p derp.Here's odysee unlisted link. But god damn hopefully the links work for you guys tooodysee is now unlisted:EUhttps://ody.sh/POWb91FUNdNAhttps://ody.sh/j5Ld5pR6xOAbove links go upto 1080p but weird
>>502425970It is a really good map ain't it? I'll think about it maybe we can do it with Tournament tracking via paper and pen. Only issue is map doesn't have an announcer system. but maybe that's fineCould also make it feel more official by having one guy be in an avatar with toggle systems for tournament tracking
>>502425970this map FUCKS
>>502426498>Only issue is map doesn't have an announcer systemNo! Just a simple tournament for the sake of the game for those playing. Not some bloated SOS shit show for clout chasers
>>502427198i agree, keep those grubby SEA hands off this potential event. not everything needs to be the SOS show.
>>502427198>>502427338We already played it during SEA exploration. If you want a tournament, someone has to assemble it. Why not SOS?
>>502427402>Why not SOS?has it ever occurred to you that there is a portion of people here that are tired of you having your fingers involved in every single event that ever happens here?
>>502427508Why are you tired of it? I have always promoted others to do their own event. Have never stopped others from doing their own event. Why this level of hostility from you?
>>502427402>If you want a tournament, someone has to assemble it. Why not SOS?>>502427556>I have always promoted others to do their own event.this is one of the reasons why people are tired of you. you say one thing and then immediately contradict yourself.
>>502427753What part of what I said prevented others from making their own event? Did someone start making the volleyball event yet?You have to make sense anon
>>502427851you're too autistic to get it. maybe try asking chatGPT to translate my message for you to understand.
>>502427508You're a weiner. >wahh you do too many eventsWell how about host your own event?>wahh no actually if you say you don't mind then that just makes it worse how DARE you say you want non SOS eventsFact is that that SOS group is just a very active group and you're a fucking retard.
>>502427893No anon you're just a stupid fucking retard who is too lazy to host his own events and is blaming your own lethargy on someone who isn't too lazy.
>>502427907>>502427961Thanks anons, love you :`)
>NOOO YOU'RE TOO LAZY TO HOST YOUR OWN EVENT YOU *NEED* SOS TO DO IT FOR YOU Respectively, go fuck yourself Yuki.
>>502428064You don't need SOS or me to do it for you. Please go make it. If the volleyball event does not get made within 3 months I will take the mantle cause I think it'll be a fun one
>>502428135I'm more than tired of your shit so I think I will contact the OP who suggested the event in the first place and set it up to make it happen.
>>502428393Good luck! It's an event that sounds really fun isn't it? Looking forward to it. I still dislike how you're so hostile but I wish you the best and look forward to the event!
>>502428135>You don't need SOS or me to do it for you.>If you want a tournament, someone has to assemble it. Why not SOS?which way, autist man?
>>502428608No anon you're just a stupid fucking retard who is too lazy to host his own events and is blaming your own lethargy on someone who isn't too lazy.
>>502428608Did you try reading the sentences you linked?"Why not SOS" is a question of a suggestion on who could possibly assemble as potential event not a binding "I MUST DO IT" or "I WANT TO DO IT".
>>502428679He's just messing with you at this point. Either because he was doing it at the start but now is doubling down after realizing he was wrong to save face.
>>502428746Roger. Stopping replies for now. Still if anon channels his anger to something productive such as assembling an event for everyone to have fun with, I say that's a win for everyone

GOOD MORNING IT IS BONEY DAY
Hi, friendly reminder that next ParaPara training session is today at 17:00CET/16:00UTC/11:00EST/2h from now ( or just double check the time here: https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?p0=195&iso=20241116T17&year=2024&month=11&day=16&hour=17&min=0&sec=0&msg=ParaPara91) in VRC > Wait what is this?This is a /vrg/ dancing group/club open to any anon. It is first and foremost a ParaPara (dance style for eurobeat) circle but is also open to other types of dancing, such as Wotagei (dance style using lightsticks, on pause for now).The main goal is to actively learn those dance styles with eventual content made out of it, anyone is free to join no matter if they want to take it seriously or just as a fun thing. No issues with 3 pointers either!More info here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P-uVnC7m-oiuk6_d2quKzoCBsyeAXG5ww-48fMPVMLo/edit#heading=h.83e22ya6mivq> What's planned this time for ParaPara?New song this time with "BAZOOKA PISTOLERO" by FRANZ TORNADO (source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl_bnbcXe7k), has a few unusual use of static poses, the song seems kinda fun too! Of course we'll do the usual warmups on previous songs firstAs usual, newcomers are always welcome and we'll adapt the session depending on who joins.
tonight sucked ass
I hate to ask this but is it OK to ask where people tend to get their pirated avatars?

>>502460885man, you really did crank that gamma up
>>502452453Apart from everyone's avatars can't you just link the other mod locations so the download is smaller (unless it's all just avatars then that's a lot of bloat).
>>502464325There's 54 pallets in the modpack at the moment, and maybe 10 of them are avatars. If you really want to, I can give you a list of 44 mods to download manually next time (would recommend against subscribe button and mod.io downloader, from my experience it works like shit and it switches off some subscriptions at random), but I feel like it's much easier for everyone to just grab a single 6gb package and call it a day. It also guarantees same versioning and resolves pretty much all of the possible mismatch issues.

>>502464616Had the limit too and opened the link in a private window it worked and downloaded in 10 minutes. If it works its very very convenient.
>>502464325Some of the avatars could definitely be reduced in size a lot.
>>502464616problem for me is the download never finished the 6gb. Always fails midway through and then have to wait through the "server overloaded" crap

>>502462759it was so dark i couldnt see shit initially >>502462618yea i hope we'll get another metro game. last ive read they moved some of their studio because of the war.kinda sucks that khan remained in moscow while the rest of artyom's group moved to baikal but who knows they might be reunited.i really do like the metro world i should read the novel some day, i did 1 chapter of the audiobook but then got distracted
also the>screen suddenly fades to black as your character is 'knocked out'trope is gay and cringe and is twice as gay and cringe in VR.this game tried to simulate your character lying down on the ground by tilting the entire world while your IRL headset is level. shit's a terrible idea

>>502298938My shitty old VR headset just died a little bit ago and I can afford to get an index. Being I primarily want to play pcvr games and have no interest in using a non steam store, what should I do? Get the index, go for something else around the same price?

Spooky cheaty bonelab guy delivered one hell of a ride, seems like people loved it in general. Thank you, spooky bonelab guy, hope your general intention was to give people a good time.

Slept in and missed bonerlab with the lads... I'm gonna make it to one of these things.
>>502487040Yeah, I absolutely loved it as well. Just hope it was all in good intentions, because there's also the matter of server crashing repeatedly until nearly everyone left, so I'm not sure how to take it. Anyway, good bonelabs.

Just got Quest Pro and my old possibly 1.0 Vive trackers are very janky with space calibrator. My torso is not tracking will and is lob-sided. I also have ancient 1.0 base stations that came with my old HTC Vive. Should I get 3.0 trackers or the "ultimate" trackers? Should I upgrade to base station 2.0?

My occulus has been gathering dust for like 4 months now but I'm finally getting the urge to try out the VR meme again. Fallout 4 just burnt me out last time, trying all these ways to try and make the game not run like shit to no avail. Think I might try playing some Doom 3 and take it easy

Metro has wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much talkingso far. I hope I get the revolver shotgun soon. Just got the not-AK and raped the gang of mouth breathers. Really should have given me a knife instead of the judo chop. And the ability to grab people from behind.I didn't really try, but can you kill the armored dude/dudes with bullets/stealth takedown? Also, if you have no bullets, how are you supposed to kill rats? Can you pistol whip things?
yurt
>>502546445you can pistol whip people. armoured guys have to be taken down with bullets, either a very precise headshot through the visor or just mowed down with body shots. as far as i know there's no other way to kill beasts than bullets.

Can I somehow remove the Maximum sizes? I don't want to see impostors. Some config file maybe?
>>502556841lmao
>>502546445You can stealth kill armored dudes with the crossbow when you get it. You can also melee rats with your weapon but I'm not sure how much damage it does.

>>502560937Don't slap every Booth outfit in one avatar
>>502560937no, it's just imposing sane limits finally, so the avatars are not bigger than a fucking world you're in and don't take all the VRAM (although the vram issue is now completely fixed with streaming mipmaps and vram limiter)
>>502560937There is no valid reason to have an avatar exceeding 200 MB.

what's a good, up to date tool to make expressions with avatar face shapekeys on unity?
I'm a pilot now
>>502576440Open blender and use the CATS avatar tools, make a few basic blendshapes and then the tool will generate the rest of the visemes for speaking. https://github.com/absolute-quantum/cats-blender-plugin/releases/latest
>>502572843wireless + magnetic batteries you can switch out quickly like bobovr is the best experience imoi tried playing with a magnetic usb cable initially and just gave up at some point
>>502579390not that anon but I bought a Kiwi halo strapit's got a 5400mah batteryi figure that should be enough for me
>>502579562So that's like 3-4hrs of playtime for you? I barely do sessions longer than 2hrs
>>502576497AV-42? vtoling is hard
>>502579737It's that plus the Quest 3's own battery so yeah I think it might be enough for 5hrs pushing itideally i would obviously want a version with hotswappable batteries like bobovr but as it is what i have won't be a real limitation for a long whilei'm gassed after just 1-1.5hrs of playing H3VR Take and Hold
>>502580085I bought kkcobvr halo strap with swappable batteries but it was so uncomfortable I trashed it. I don't know how people can handle those halo straps shits.
>>502580417Same as QPro or PSVR - it's depends on your head shape being just right for the strap.
>>502579745Yep. I bought OVRLRD and went throught it fully convinced that I'm a badass pilot like in Titanfall, sniping mechs from really far and raining artillery on poorfag flesh riflemen until I tried landing VTOL's newfag plane
>>502577213Reread his post carefully little guy
>>502576440Unity itself. Why do you need a tool for that?
>>502579562i have 3 bobovr pucks (5200mah each) , can cycle them indefinitely i think i did 5+ hour sessions of alyx,vertigo2,metro ... with these it's fun af.they beep when theyre discharged in 1-1.5h and you switch them in 5 secs
>>502580748Dispite its arcade looks, VTOLVR is more sim than arcade.
Sign Language is based and impossible to moderate, come prove that with us. Life has settled down the chaos so I shouldn't need to miss sundays anymore like I have this past month. https://vrch.at/hk7jwt4y
>>502583643i love you
>>502583643I want to learn sign but my country's sign language, despite being english based, is different and objectively worse than american sign.
>>502481285the only other 2 headsets worth buying right now are the bigscreen beyond and pimax crystal light. Look them up and think for yourself if they're worth more than the current price of refurb indexes. The bigscreen is a sidegrade in my opinion, I only like it for it's resolution and panels, everything else is worse. I haven't used the crystal light so I can't say. I have a reservation in for the crystal super so I'll leave my impressions of that early next year when it releases. Everything is kind of gay right now because resolution is pegged hard by lack of foveated rendering.
Golf+ lobby up!Join VRGVRG
>>502586441if you only learn sign language for use in vr, american sign language is the one you need. Learning one sign language helps learning others later.Good signing today signers, glad we could figure out the sign for worse.
>>502589340>recommending bigmeme>recommending shitmaxIf you only care about VRC then sure, get Bigmeme or QPro. If you only care about simming then sure, get Pimax Crystal (not the fucking light). If you actually want to play all VR games then just get Quest 3 or Pico 4 and call it a day.
>>502481285psvr2 is pretty decent for the price
>>502590558>recommending zuccbook>recommending chinkoQ-Pro is worse than the q3 in every way unless your a VRC face troon. Why the fuck would you even get a crystal? It does nothing other than eyetrack over the light which only VRC would use again and requires a god damn battery for PCVR play. Also enjoy PCVR gaming on any standalone slop with that lovely latency shills will claim to not notice. Also I'm not recommend the bigscreen at all I'm more than well aware of how much it sucks. It's just the only option next the the light right now unless you really love wifi streaming. Just get a refurb index unless you love wasting money right now imo.

>>502618794you're right... there was a connection... a 110 Volt connection. had to charge the robot
>>502617054Does it actually plays good in vr?
>>502618882It's fine over wifi if you have your computer wired into the router
>>502619247LOL, LMAO
>>502619247nigga doesn't believe in wireless and keeps saying wires are fine while the only time he tried wireless pcvr he used the shitty pico connect at 50mbps so please understand the emotional outburst
>>502560937vrc back in 2018-2019 they were VERY exigent with avatar optimization, the max poly count toupload was 15k if I remember correctly.I'm glad they do this, the only scenario I would let someone upload a big ass avatar is if it's used for a special kind of gimmick. Some JP events do live particle events and they put all that into their avatar and they are not even THAT heavy.
>>502618950where exactly was the charge port?!
>>502619557enjoy your artifacts, banding, buriness, any fast motion falling apart into a mush and not being able to see shit in dark scenes (see all the compression cucks raising the brightness in metro to crazy levels), delay and uncertainty of wired connection.

>>502620269>artifacts, banding, buriness, any fast motion falling apart into a mush and not being able to see shit in dark scenesNone of those are a problem on my setup for anything that I've played to be fair haven't played Metro yet. In my experience, it's not really an issue if you have the right software and a decent router that can throw enough bitrate at the problem.>delay and uncertaintySurprisingly, I can play Beat Saber just fine over Steam Link, was expecting to have to pull my Index out when multiplayer lobbies started back up.

>>502619079As the one playing it, it's so far so good.Takes a bit to "calibrate" so that your position matches where the game thinks James is plus the menus & cutscenes are a little wonky.But the actual gameplay of moving through the world, fighting, puzzle solving feels real good.They decided to put the flashlight not on the chest but instead in your left hand so can even change up how you'd normally see areas.So for a free mod it's pretty dang good.

Is this the correct thread to talk about my mental illness and struggles? I do play VRChat, if that helps.
>>502670294no that's unironically the trash thread /vrlg/ >>>/trash/70912362
>>502670416trash is icky though... I'm just suicidal, not a degen
>>502670727that goes under the umbrella term of "drama", still trash
>>502670785oh okay :/I'll stay quiet then.
>>502616976im already done with mine, just waiting to gift it
>>502670727not that other anon but if your mental illness relates to Virtual Reality yeah you can.Like Proteus Effect or kinship among similar models
>>502670940Holy high achiever I kneel
>>502671089>kinship among similar modelswait other people experience the same!?
>>502621683no but been meaning to
>>502671181it's a god gift ;-)
>>502621683Yes and it messed me up for days.
>>502670940inb4 it's a blender cube
>>502671534Hear me out: TWO blender cubes
>>502671257Why ofcourse! It's even said in a study that our local anons have participated in
>>502671506>>502671387Nice. Be sure to find the button to turn her on
>>502671257duh, familyyou're obviously getting along with fellow anons who share your taste and style. it's not even just booth bases, whenever I see someone who's simply following a similar general avatar idea to mine, i usually end up with a new friend
>>502671886you tried to "turn on" the robot?
>>502672156How else can she be activated you dum dum
>>502671257no, if you use my model i will kill you.
>>502670727>I'm just suicidalPlease talk to a friend or family, eventually go see a doctor
>>502673120Similar base does not mean exactly your model. Calm down satan
>>502671886>>502672156>>502672264
>>502673134>Please talk to a friend or family, eventually go see a doctormy family knows and they are really nice and alldoing counseling currently.. it's also really nicecan't shake the feeling that all this energy is kind of wasted on me and that people might be better off if I just disappeared. Not even in a self deletion kind of way.If I could silently slip out and be a looser somewhere else, I legit think life would improve for everybody. Can't do it though, because I don't have the means to leave.I did research a couple of ways how to do it, but ever since my parents installed some big brother type internet watcher, I can not research it anymore without my parents talking to me.Again, they are nice, everybody is nice, but they just don't understand that my life will most likely not become better.
>>502667020How well does it work? Do I only need to be on the beta for it to work or do I need to also turn it on in settings ?
>>502673528I don't the know your situation so it's hard to tell, but surely there's meaning and moments you can gice to your own lifeTry to join the meetups here if it can help, just don't make your suicidal thoughts your full personality, join with the mindset that you are coming for fun times and making friends
>>502673528I wrote some advice but it's not VR related. tl;dr crystallize your problems so you can compartmentalize, and do a productive hobby regularly. I'd recommend avatar work since you can take your creations and play with them in VR. You gain skills and it's satisfying. If you want some help getting started then just ask.
>>502673528> I did research a couple of ways how to do it, but ever since my parents installed some big brother type internet watcher, I can not research it anymore without my parents talking to me.Are you underage ?
>>502673178no i will be the only one.
>>502674345What's your base anon? :3
>>502673974>your full personalityI am a regular. My suicidal thoughts are almost completely invisible and I doubt people will recognize me from these points.So no worries, it's not my personality. Far from it.>>502674062I'm trying to pick up avatar work again, after doing nothing for almost 3 years. Fuck me.. so much changed...>>502674112>are you underageSadly not. Just 30+ NEET who moved back to his parents because he is not able to sustain a life on his ow.At least that is the short version of it. The mental shit and my parents not wanting me to do something stupid might also be a big part.
>>502673343that's lewd anon

>>502671803What the fuck is this? And where did you find it?
>>502680017Remember when someone posted here on the thread two years ago that they're looking for volunteers to interview for a Master's Thesis?Yes pic related
>>502680017We got asked by some students if we want to participate in a study and some of us joined. If you're interested in full paper dm me.
>>502680508study deez nuts
>>502680508Omg it's her! The popular Karen known as TeenCutie!
>>502671803holy fuck, yuki and tsusekilmaoi shall bully them next time i see them in vrchat about this
>>502680674>he didn't recognize P
>>502680508i will now call you TeenCutie
>>502671803I don't feel this is written to a master's degree level.
>>502680674That could be anyone! SchooAnime, TeenCutie and PurpleAnime are all names who are not in my friends list here in /vrg/!
>>502681325It's a very long Master's thesis. Go bother TeenCutie if you want a copyI honestly think the mater student's did really well gathering data, opinions, compiling them and creating conclusions for two people who literally have not played VR
>>502681627can we cite the paper as proof that TDA's are ugly
>>502681325>several million players (according to vrchat)>interview 12 randos>in-depth qualitative studies>3 of those 12 people are from /vrg/yeah I think you can safely drop this study.it's a fair assumption that the findings are heavily skewed into a certain direction.
>>502681840>can we cite the paper as proof that TDA's are uglyYes.I was actually very surprised how almost all the participants from various Avatar races Robots, normies, males, females, furries, anime, every single one hates TDA. It was glorious.
>>502681961TDA detected. Sorry, but your avatar has been declared ugly by peer review.
>>502681961For a study about how avatars are embodied as identities, choosing users that don't customise their own avatar seems like a poor choice. So no TDAs is fine.
>>502681325You've no idea how low master's thesis can go and pass successfully. Good unis may work hard on demanding good results, but as for your average generic uni that isn't harvard, all they care about during review is whether you've got enough citations or not. This thing may look somewhat casual, at least on this page, but in general I've seen things far worse than that going throughalso, no idea how casual-subjective psychology papers can go, and given the nature of the field, i'd be willing to believe it's not exactly on the same strictness as technology related papers
>>502682186that is not what I said
>>502682025all it takes is a common enemy to unite a community
>>502682236I know. I said it.
>>502681325>>502682190Lund University is literally a daycare for commies, fags and females.
>>502682882makes sense if you look at other topics on their website
>>502673956It just works. Go in beta. When the game starts it automatically measures your free vram and sets limits internally.On stable if I go to public bug and show everyone, I will stutter and crash with my 12 gigs of vram. On beta it hovers around 11 gigs but I can see everyone. Cpu and gpu will chug from very poors, but will chug without stutters and crashes.I didn't even see any actual texture degradation, I think it just uses unity built in mipmap streaming and that tries to load highest detail for closest objects.
>>502684475does it override "Friends"?Because I like seeing my friends.
>>502684589It uses unity mip map streaming mechanism and will try to fill your vram with highest detail textures up close. I dont think its guided by friendship level, just by vram budget and distance.All it does is lowers texture resolution when hitting vram limit.
>>502684589How mipmap streaming worksFor each texture in the cameraview, Unity automatically calculates and loads mipmap levels only up to a specific level, instead of loading all of them. This means that Unity only transfers some mipmap levels per texture from disk to the CPU and the GPU.Unity loads mipmap levels at the highest resolution possible, but uses lower mipmap levels if higher resolution mipmap levels don’t fit in the memory limit you set. For more information about setting a memory limit, refer to Configure mipmap streaming.Unity caches mipmap levels on the GPU, to avoid repeatedly loading mipmap levels from disk and the CPU.https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/TextureStreaming-introduction.html
how can i tell if my q3 has connected to steamvr via my link cable? yes i am very stupid
>>502673528>but ever since my parents installed some big brother type internet watcherYou should probably kill your parents.That's honestly psychopathic behavior on their part.
>>502685113steamvr is wifi only, install meta quest link to use the cable
>>502685113>>502685830Firstly, SteamVR is the platform that connects a headset to the game and displays audio. SteamLink or Quest Link or VirtualDesktop are all softwares that connect a standalone headset to steamVR. Questlink is the only one that can do it over a usb cable I think; the rest use Wifi. I recommend trying Wifi if you have decent signal.
>>502684796>>502685109I kind of understand this.I just wonder that if friends will be prioritized. Like I can select that for hiding poor/very poor avatars.
>>502654000why do people always sit so far away from eachother in these?
>>502685492>kill your parentshuh... is it schizo hours again?
>>502685987I do have decent wifi, I just bought a link cable for seated playI figured it was the quest link/vrdesktop thing, i was just hoping it wasn't so i wouldn't need to use qlink or buy vrdtoh well
>>502688908SteamLink is free and is worth trying first. As for the cable; it does the same thing as wifi but non-wirelessly; as in it compresses the video and sends it over. I think latency might be better but that's about it. I guess it also delivers power too
>>502689079Ah, that's where I misunderstoodI thought the compression with steamlink was due to wifi, not just how steamlink worksoh well i needed a charging cable regardless since my old one is frayed to shit
Real VR Fishing today 19 GMT!
>>502691150With these standalones there's no way to get uncompressed video through them. (Technically even tethered headsets are still compressed, but losslessly under the displayport/hdmi formats). What most people do is get a really nice wifi router and let it run high quality video over the thick connection. You can test this for cheaper with a usb-c ethernet adapter and a ethernet cable. Will give you gigabit to test higher quality video over.. before shelling out for a $200 router and learning that it wasn't the problem.
>>502691150steam link video quality is really bad even on maxed out settingsnot sure what they smoked when they decided to publish that app
>>502671803>avatars I use are only used by Japanese>Japanese only meetups>I'm a filthy westoid
>>502691150You can crank up the bitrate pretty high over a cable without having to worry about interference or router speeds, so it might end up being a better experience for you. Haven't messed with it myself, but I think it's still Oculus Debug Tool that you use to do that.Also, like some other anons said, Steam Link doesn't compress well in some cases, but it's still nice to have around since it seems to be lower latency than the other wireless options. In my experience, Virtual Desktop looks a lot better even at similar bitrates.
Kon ni chi wa, my name is Anon-kun, I like japanese booth avatars because they look way better, and more performant due to being retopod over a thousand times. Western gumroad avatars can't compete with Kikyo, Rindo and Karin, japan is just way better. My dream is to move to japan and become a booth 3D authour.Sayonara

The instance will be closed after 30-45minLikely in a simple room with a table and a video player> Why?To share relaxing time before bigger instances and after work.

For that reason it will be posted in the thread but as invite+
>>502693302I just don't like the shading on most Gumroad stuff, that's really it. The art style is fine.
>>502307174There was no money in it and it wasn't going to come to fruition anyway. After the quest 2, so 20 million, a lot of people jumped in the hole. But I don't think we're ever reaching those heights again. What the general public want from VR and what VR is are two different things. It's like how there's a cost jump between making a 2D and a 3D game. That same jump is from going from a 3D flat game to a VR game. But I'm sure you know this, I don't mean to patronize.
>>502680786I do c:

Is it possible to obtain Stonx trackers? Supposedly they are driftless but the company that made them is in the process of being sold to another company. Are there any other body trackers worth getting or should I just wait for these?
At what point would you say someone has gear acquisition syndrome for VR? I have a Quest Pro and the comfort is manageable. I've gotten used to it. I'm considering getting a Quest 3 just for the Bobo strap upgrades. So that will be 450 USD just for more comfort
>>502704385Vive trackers, everything less is cope unless under 100 bucks for full FBT
>>502704892 (me)*450 USD being a used quest 3 + Bobovr strap
>>502704892if you're getting more than 3 trackers beyond purpose of replacing faulty dead ones and getting face tracking.
>>502704385Those went from vaporware to never ever. Either get lighthouses and 3.0s or HaritoraX wireless if you want to use FBT under blanket. That's your realistic options.
>>502698097PCVR is in a clear decline but people overestimate the size of the PCVR playerbase before standalone took off. Excluding VRChat and simulators we're still not far from the old player numbers. Some games have managed to grow during this time while others (like Pavlov) have been in freefall. Contractors prior to Quest crossplay was nearly dead, unable to find a populated lobby outside of EU/NA peak times. It's doing better on PCVR now even with the platform trending downwards.I don't think our situation would be significantly different in a world without standalone VR. Flat game developers had already flopped hard or lost interest so the initial waves of early VR games weren't going to repeat. PSVR and the sony money behind it had run it's course, still set to be absent until PSVR2. Maybe that would have been less of a failure without Quest competition but Sony clearly weren't in a position to invest as heavily into it as before. We did lose a year or two of growth as indie VR developers dropped whatever they were doing to prioritize a Quest 2 port but it's hard to estimate how substantial that growth would have been without the influence of games and playerbases that resulted from the Quest 2 rapid success. The momentum from early VR was fading and we were already waiting for thing that would revolutionize VR so it would be unrealistic of me to point to this chart and say we'd have kept going to 20-25k by now.
>>502705246If anything Quest propped PCVR up a bit, it got more people into VR and some of those tried PCVR as a result and more headsets out there means more devs willing to make VR games even if PCVR is just afterthought for most.
>>502698097>There was no money in it and it wasn't going to come to fruition anyway.Yeah, it's funny to hear people act like Quest killed off higher budget VR games when they basically never existed. The few companies that made an attempt gave up when they realized there wasn't enough money in it for it to make sense.Most of the games from back then would get called Questslop here if they released today.>>502705246I think we'd probably be worse off without standalone VR considering everything we've heard from devs, but it sucks that you seemingly can't do well focusing on PCVR.
>>502705128NTA but I've been looking into trackersDo HaritoraX with the Slime software hold up to actual Slimes? I've heard some stuff about jitter issues with Haritoras
>>502709146Haritora with the wireless dongle is pretty stable, on BT it gets jittery. Tracking wise Slimes are still better but the wires dangling between the trackers and size are not really worth the hassle. Basically if you want Slimes you will want to build them yourself, if you want something ready out of the box get Haritora.

I think PCVR is struggling/stagnant because of costs and mindshare. Everyone I know who doesn't have a VR headset views alyx and metro as "30 minute tech demos undeserving of the several thousand dollar price tag to buy a headset and monster PC to run them" even though nothing about that statement is true. I thought the same until I started doing research and ultimately decided to try it for myself.
>>502713117To a significant extent that "it's all just tech demos bro" mindset is sour grapes cope

>>502713252Sour grapes or not, I had VR-only titles blacklisted on steam for years. I didn't have a headset and wasn't interested in seeing games that required one. Most people I know outside of VR circles are the same. It's like seeing ads for PS5 titles when you don't own a PS5.

VR adoption may go the same way as mobile phones and the internet where they are suddenly common over the course of a year despite the technology not really changing at that time. Or maybe the peak popularity was in 2020 and it will remain uncommon like racing peripherals forever. My Dad bought an Oculus go in 2019, despite me advising against it, put it on once, said he had motion sickness and maintains to this day that VR is impossible to use.
How do you make steam game recording work in vr?
