I won't be, my Rift seems to have broken

so now that the VGL is over I'd like to propose a Star Trek Bridge Crew game night for /vrg/. Gauging interest.

You can control the weight of the post process with an animation, and use an animator for adjustable dimming strengths in your map and use animator RPCs instead of toggling multiple post process objects on and off. I currently have it set up this way in the private version of my map, but because it doesn't work if you have low settings on, i might just add a toggle to switch to what my public instance currently uses which is a modified transparent shader like what was suggested earlier. I'm told the shader dimming on my map has banding issues for rift users on the darkest settings though.

>>238033163

I'd love to do it on Wednesday evening or Saturday afternoon American time

>>238033235
Thanks!

Anyone tried Slime Rancher VR? I wanted to but it only seem to start up on desktop and nothing is happening/starting in VR.

>>238034509
it's a just a free dlc area.

so you need to get that

Has anyone tried vrchat from the oculus store? Does it actually run better?

>>238035195
I don't know about running better but I've seen a person do synchronised dancing by having both the oculus and steam client open at the same time. The client that's alt tabbed still follows your tracking so and you can double log into your account so it's basically twins.

>>238035195
it does. it runs great. colours also feel much more accurate than running it through steam. lack of playspacemover is a shame but I made a quick hack (a moves you up, x moves you down)

>>238032625
I've got that game!

Reminder for anyone who's interested, I'm showing The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya tomorrow night. It's longer than what I usually show, so it'll be starting at 9:30PM EST this week instead of 10. I'll post details to join off of when the instance is up.

Also, forgot to mention this in the last post, but I won't be showing anything next week because of Christmas.

I hate not be able to make a proper white character

>>238036283

>>238040914
Never watched Star Trek, but I like science fiction. I heard that the original series is too dated. Should I watch everything in production order but skip the first one?

>>238042072
OG Trek is still great imo, especially if you like campy, silly 60s stuff. Even if you don't like camp, though, just Google up some lists of the best episodes and watch those. The dynamic that Kirk, Spock, and McCoy have together is great and I think anyone who skips OG Trek is missing out.

what do you even get from phishing a vrchat account

My ISP has been so shit recently. I've had high pings and a bunch of disconnects every day for the past few weeks. Really kills my ability to have fun in Pavlov.

>>238043824

Yeah, it looks sketchy, but my friend looks up who blocked him on it all the time. Just wondering if anyone here has tried it. It apparently shows the date and time of the block too, like the friends parser.

>>238044194
This ain't Reddit you nigger, you're not tricking anyone.

>>238044045

I don’t think it’s a phishing scam. All you would really have to do is change your password to counter that anyways. It’s not like they would have your email password too.

>>238044285

I didn’t say to actually use it, just wondering if anyone has.

>>238044285
tfw clicking login on firefox doesn't even trigger any kind of request, so it's literally not doing anything

Columbine VR.

I really want to start making a VR WW2 Shooter. Not only do I passionately desire such a game to exist, but whoever makes it first could actually make a nice profit and use the momentum to create a historical FPS focused VR game studio. That in itself is actually my dream. Besides using Hammer to make Gmod maps though I have no game design experience. Should I set out to get a group together to just make a Pavlov WW2 mod to start out? I saw someone recently posted a WW2 map to the Pavlov workshop, maybe we can get a community going to build an open source Pavlov WW2 mod, or make an entire title on it's own so we could gain enough funding to branch out, do all theatres of the first and second world war in VR multiplayer. Syndicalist businesses are pretty efficient, maybe we can just start a historical VR FPS community powerhouse

I hope none of you are dumb enough to fall for such a retarded phishing attempt.

>>238044781
what an original setting

>>238044781
Do a pavlov mod. There's a few ww2 vr shooters out and they all have problems with not being pavlov

https://store.steampowered.com/app/396560/Front_Defense/

>>238044971
Not being pavlov is typically a good thing. As far as VR FPS go its gunplay is primitive.

>>238044045
Ban evasion that isn't impaired by trust levels.

>>238044805

>>238043517

If anyone tries this can you post a screenshot of it? Just make sure you change your password before and after you use it too.

>>238045931


Nah, they will ban that account too, just like they would your alt. So, that wouldn’t be a reason. Plus ban evaders know how to dodge bans of all kinds anyways.

>>238044781
You're probably never going to make a dime but if you want to make games with no experience, modding like that is the thing to do.

>>238046473
>Nah, they will ban that account too
Which is why it would be useful to harvest large numbers of accounts.

>>238046656
i just looked up the domains history and it was created 2018-05-20, so unless they're time travelers, then they didn't create because of the trust system. https://www.crazydomains.com.au/whois/vrchat.network/#result

Pavlov mod is probably the answer here, time to dive into UE4. And there is certainly a lack of historical FPSes on VR that are worth buying

>>238050013
pavlov already has rifles only mode
you just need the right map

In Pavlov when I'm aiming down sights does it make my aim less accurate if I close one eye? That's the only way I can properly see down the scope.

>>238050208
The Pavlov server update will allow you to just replace all the weapons and player models outright.

>>238051084
No, but it reduces situational awareness a lot. You have to keep doing it and you'll eventually see it more clearly.

>>238051161

>>238051343
sure if you want to be unnatural colors and flat lit and black outline kind of model you will blend in with the map just fine

>>238042726
>>238042072
>anyone who skips OG Trek is missing out
Correct. It is objectively better than ENT and STD, so if you don't watch it first at least watch it after TNG/DS9/VOY.

After many trials, I got a mostly working version of the Colosseum into vrchat. Of all the methods I've tried, using the sketchup pro trial to export an fbx of the project and importing that into unity has generated a passably optimized hierarchy, and also ports all the (low-quality) textures from the sketchup file. Turning on the "generate colliders" in the import settings for ez geometry, and you can actually walk around the map.

However, the model is still way too detailed for realtime rendering. Even with occlusion culling on and all realtime lighting off, it's still pushing 1000+ batches and dropping to 23 fps, since sketchup broke out every little detail into a separate game object. The actual tri count (3 millionish) doesn't matter much, since I tried a completely merged mesh of everything and it ran at a solid 90fps.

Somehow I need to merge some of the larger sections of meshes, while still retaining some of the hierarchy (for occlusion culling). Also would like to generate LODs for stuff like the statues on the outer ring (barely visible here, yet about 1000 tris each). There are a few unity plugins for mesh merging, and there's always a lot of manual work in blender, but I feel like there's got to be some middle path to merging most of them.

>>238052281
The original sketchup file is quite nice, with groups upon groups upon groups, all the way down to the detail on the column ends. This all gets translated back into 11k game objects in unity though. There are only 34 materials total on the map, so I'm looking for a way to merge all the meshes using the same material together. Or at least merge these little slices of the colloseum together, so frustum culling still applies.

Remember when you were 13 years old and thought if you imagined it hard enough you'd have super powers?

Anyone who has a VR Cover: Does it make it more comfortable to wear? I don't have one and I feel like the default Rift foam irritates my face a bit and it starts to feel a little gross after a while.

>>238060708
have you ever washed or wiped your VR cover?
if yes was is regular maintenance or like once a week

>>238060671
But this time you actually get virtual super powers if you are autistic enough and can affect other people.
HOW FUKKEN COOL IS THAT!?

>>238060671
Please don't remind me

I'm sorry I stole your vrfu I really regret it please take him back.

>>238061198
why? you don't like weird boners?

>>238060863

Sorry, I don't have a VR cover yet but I have ordered one. My issue is with the default foam on the Rift. That's what causes the irritation and feels gross after a bit. I don't think I could clean the foam.

>>238060708
Yes, I like the cotton vrcover more than the regular rift foam. In the summer I preferred the ""vegan leather"" thing directly, but now that it's cold, I appreciate the feel of the cloth. I feel like the rift foam distributes weight a bit more evenly when i'm sleeping with the headset putting its full weight on my face, but for normal use, the vrcover is definitely better.

>>238060863
>>238060708
there's a cloth cover that's real comfortable, it comes off really easily and when it gets sweaty, you can just rinse it out and you can still use it with just the fake leather. thats not as cofortable but you can just wipe it down.

>>238062275

Awesome, thanks for the info. I live in Florida so it never really gets cold so I think I'll probably just use the leather bit since that'll be easier to clean/swap out.

>>238062275
>sleeping with the headset
why?

>>238062661

I've learned a lot of VR Chat players fall asleep in VR together.

Make sure you keep a microfiber cloth handy. Wipe your lenses down before starting a session no matter how long it's been.
Keep your hair clean or pulled back, and wipe your face down with a washcloth before sessions or if you finish playing some exertion-heavy game like Beat Saber and want to switch to someone else.
Use the Guardian/Chaperone system. The more acclimated you get to VR the easier it'll be to lose track of your surroundings and your wall will give out before the Touch controllers do because they've got steel in them.
If you struggle socially, alcohol is a godsend in VRchat.

>>238074064
That game isn't all that good, to be honest. It's not terrible, but it's just another game where you stand in place and shoot enemies that come at you. The darkness also probably makes it look a bit worse than your average VR game.

This game makes me feel like a psychopath.

Wew. This screenshot in particular makes it look like a window. Like this is inside the screen and we're the ones looking back out.
A world themed around this would be trippy. Model a room like this inside a crt and then put some kind of video panosphere of a place in the real world on the outside.

I though I would never ever even consider fbt and the rift controlers are 100% superior than those cup holders with track pads, but I was wrong, the cute anime tiddies and the proteus effect got the best out of me, with a rift in my hands I'm on a guest to get fbt with the Rift. If you usually don't have extra income by the end of the month and maybe, even the slightest chance you are considering fbt, go for the vive from the beginning it is going to save you quite a few bucks

Tonight was a good old fashioned raid. We meet some good people aswell.

>>238065810
Even alcohol doesn't help me.

>>238093086
>go for the vive from the beginning it is going to save you quite a few bucks
And save you the hassle with rift+vive combo. I love my setup and when it works it's great, but it takes me so much time and gives me so many worries about how and when it will break. It's at a point where I can't relax in fbt because I'm worried about my rift touch getting near my trackers and messing up their positioning.
It doesn't help that almost everyone on the rift+vive combo has different problems at varying degrees, so my issues might not be someone elses.

Some of these turned out great.

I like onward more than pavlov but it takes so much time to open the game and load matches that I just play pavlov instead most of the times

>>238098834
oh well, no matter. I can't even cancel the order I already put out anyway so I'll just pay the regular sale price. thanks for the intent tho, even if it was to scrounge up those vr shekels.

>>238099025
Be sure to try "First contact" first. It's the tutorial oculus comes with. You'll be amazed

>>238099495
Thanks a lot friend. I definitely will make my way through all those demos. Any other hidden gems or free stuff worth checking out? I bought Elite Dangerous, which fortunately happened to be 75% off on Steam. Can't wait to be a comfy space trucker!

Alright everybody, going to be booting up the forest server soon. About 7:20am PST. Going to be doing some more cave diving and possible outpost construction. If the group gets large enough again we might head towards the end of the game to unlock the endgame content for the server.

Pavlov if you like VR shooters. It's cheap and good

Blade and sorcery is a new one that's pretty fun. Not much content since it's still in beta but if you have bucks to spare you should try it. Worst case scenario you can refund it

Beat saber is definitely a must have. Pretty much the guitar hero of VR. You won't regret getting it

Those are the ones that come on top of my head. Lastly I'd say unironically vrchat. It's free and there's a lot of content. Rec room can also be fun specially the quests maps. Just avoid public worlds like the plague since it's full of 10yo kids, literally.

>>238128515
There is no lie in saying you're an individual who wants to try them. You don't have to apply as a dev or a company. Someone literally typed "I want free shit" and got approved. Valve is giving this shit away

>>238128515
Not really unless you lie about who you are. An individual who'll actually test them and give proper feedback seems fine. Niggers who just let them go to waste and don't try to improve them or spread knowledge might as well kill themselves though.

Can someone post the link to the new optimization ranks?

I'm placing an avatar I made into unity and none of the bones are automapped, or visible at all when I try to configure them. Is there something I'm missing that should be done beforehand?

>>238052556
unity does that already through batching, it's actually better to have more meshes.

>>238134106
Are they at least in the avatar? Silly question but if you don't have the armature called armature it won't be able to figure it out.

>>238137225
they have massively more functionality already, with capacitive finger tracking and pressure sensitivity.

pay particular attention to 3:33 in that video. There's a linear analog potentiometer sensor on each finger AND force of pressure as well, in two different places on the PREVIOUS iteration.

Hosting EU Pavlove lobby tomorrow (Wednesday) at ~19:00 GMT

Is there any way to hide the amount of hours played you have for each game? I don't really consider the hours I've put into vrchat wasted since I've had fun and met some wonderful people but I can't help but flinch a bit when I see how many hours I've put into it

What are some good mystery/room escape games I can get for VR? I'm not expecting something like the Zero Escape series but I want a game that can give me a good bang for the buck.

Also I'm too much of a brainlet to import models into VR Chat so I'm staying away from that for now.

>>238134301
>batching
Unity does some of it, but it gives up at some point. I think just having to walk the sheer amount of gameobjects in the hierarchy chokes up the batcher, so you can see it here drawing 546 batches, (with 16201 drawcalls saved).

The scene has ~40 materials total, so in theory it should be a max of 40 drawcalls, maybe 80 if I turn on shadows or something. Checking the frame debugger there are plenty of "couldn't be batched because it doesn't share the same material". If there's a good way to iterate through the meshes in unity and combine them before runtime, I'd like to see it. Or any tips on porting this thing into unity. Some of the little bits like the statues need LODs generated, but I'm not sure the best way to automate setting up the lod group and stuff.

>>238135658
I've got a question you might know the answer to. Is there a way to get the postprocessing v2 stack to apply to vrchat mirrors? It looks great overall, but no bloom in the mirror reflection is sad.

>>238144141
I Expect You To Die is supposed to be a pretty good room escape game, but bad bang for your buck. You might like Talos Principle VR if you like puzzle stuff, and it's $6 right now on Steam.

>>238145241
If somebody has a 9-5 job, I can see how it would be.

>>238144141
Honestly, there are probably more to avoid than to recommend. Escape First was okay, it had three(?) rooms with some puzzles that had answers that didn't always seem to properly match up/make sense. Tales of Escape had more coherent puzzles, and has one room for free if you want to try out their style, but it's relatively easy/short. Those are the two that I've tried so far, but your best bet is going to be looking at reviews and deciding if you want to drop ~$5 on a room.

Or maybe they don't like spending 6 hours a day sitting in front of mirrors.

>>238145639
Also fair.

>>238144141
also, if the model thing is the only thing holding you back from wanting to try VRChat, ask for help with it in the thread when you get stuck. plenty of people and tutorials around to help out with that sort of thing.

Not a great selection. None of the five should even be considered eligible for awards.

>>238145269
>>238145628
I ended up getting Talos Principle since it was so cheap. Hopefully some devs are willing to expand on such genres that works nicely with VR.

>>238145878
I do have a base MMD model downloaded but I'm too lazy to do anything about it. Maybe one weekend I'll try setting it up.

How should I go about playing Skyrim and Fallout 4 VR?
Do I buy the standalone games or can I mod the GOTY/Special desktop editions into VR?

>>238147794
Haven't checked personally but I do know the vr versions are just the special editions or whatever but with a mod for vr support. You can probably find the vr compatibility mod and apply it to your regular games somewhere but I don't know where. Basically don't buy it twice if you don't have to.

Is a rift and it's controls a fine buy if you don't really wanna go too deep into body tracking and just wanna mess around with working arms/hands in games/vrchat.
£350 is already a bit of a stretch with my income and this will be considered a selfish treat for myself.
Vive headset is just way outta my budget but i could maybe accommodate a Rift + other brand controls if it's not too bad a price.

>>238148367
It's outright better if you don't want FBT.

>>238148581
This. It's straight up a better deal.
>far better controllers
>aren't screwed if something goes wrong because support panics if a complaint on reddit goes unanswered for more than five minutes
>FBT and VRchat are unironically for huge fucking weenies and nobody else

>>238148581
>>238148738
So the Rift and it's controls are better for the casual non full body?

>>238148581
>>238148738
Exactly, and even if you decide you want fbt later, do still don't' have to sacrifice all of that

>>238148913
The only practical advantage of the Vive is full body tracking is cheaper and less hassle.

>>238148913
Absolutely. Playing shooters with Vive wands is an exercise in total frustration because Valve apparently knows nothing about ergonomics or what controls one might want to have in a video game.
>>238149014
I wouldn't even bother mentioning that because, in all seriousness, there are zero actually decent solutions available right now. Kinekt is cheap but it's total dogshit, and three Vive trackers, even without lighthouses, is way, way the fuck too expensive for what they are. I would actually advise anyone, even if they're interested in FBT, to avoid actually making a move on it until her have new solutions.

>>238149204
>until her have
How the fuck do you get 'her' as a typo of 'we'

>>238144578
If it makes you feel better i know a couple people with 5k hours..

>>238149204
>Valve apparently knows nothing about ergonomics or what controls one might want to have in a video game.
To be fair Oculus was even worse in 2016 as they forwent hand tracking entirely. Hindsight is 20:20. They seem to have made the same mistake with knuckles though.

>>238149014
>>238149168
>>238149204
Okay, thanks for the heads up guys that saves me a lotta headache wondering if i should've just invested the extra money or not, i'll get the rift then.

>>238148913
I have only tried a vive and I can tell you pretty confidently that having a trackpad that doubles as directional input and button input is an acquired taste. Granted I can't fucking stand touch screen phones so I might be biased in this regard. Bit of practice you get to know exactly where your thumb should be on the track pad and it is very smooth for circle menus like buying guns in pavlov. Haven't used a video game controller since I left home but I remember just placing the base of my thumb over all four buttons and tilting to press rather than lifting and hitting individual buttons. Hard to tell.
Try out both if you can. If you have small hands then go rift. The dildos are a bit big for traps with small, girly hands.

>>238136486
No, thank you though. I only found out about the referral program after I already placed my order and they won't let me cancel.

>>238149536
Yeah I won't be super happy with their decisions on Knuckles until I can hold a pair. MAYBE they've got the ergos on the grip good enough to where you won't really need grip buttons to grip stuff effectively, but I'm not buying it for now. Capacitance only isn't a great solution and I suspect getting it right is the sole reason they've gone through three 'evaluation versions' and a new dev kit is entirely that shit.

>>238148738
far is a stretch, after using both the difference is extremely minimal, at this point it feels like people just parroting each other and slowly bloating the touch's quality over time

>>238148367
For budget rift is better, though if you have glasses you will most likely have to shell out a bit extra cash for some lens inserts, since the rift doesnt accomodate glasses super well

>>238149762
It's a much easier decision to make than last year. Until the end of April trackers were only known to work with Vive, and not long before that there was a huge amount of disinfo about the two systems that wasn't cleared up until some had switched.

what games at what settings do i need to throw at this thing to make it dip under 90hz?

>>238149762
I've had both headsets and you can just sell your rift if you want to change to a vive later. There's also the choice of having a kinect if you want fbt but it's basically a camera you have to face.

>>238154834
Yeah, there's no trackers and definitely no rift/trackers because it doesn't launch through SteamVR. Seeing the whole body is unironically more immersive.

I thought about getting a rift but it requires windows 10. Is a vive bad or worse or can I use it well? Also can it be used on a PS4 or is that psvr only?

No it doesn't.

>>238164284

>>238164410
Don't worry, it's fine on Windows 7.

it's the future

Dios mio...

>>238165643
if you use vrchat its not a waste at all
If you do a lot of sim games (elite dangerous or flight/car sims) it's not a waste at all

if you only play beat saber and occasional "vr game experiences" you'll probably be wasting it. That's the honest truth. If you have no interest in sim games or vrchat you're probably better off getting a psvr and occasionally playing that, it's got the biggest range of titles and the shit specs won't bother you too much, it's still all the features of a current gen headset.

>>238165643

How does streaming videos in VRchat work? I have shitty Australian internet but can still stream videos, but when I go that bedroom theater thing it takes almost a full minute to load 2 seconds of a clip. I don't know if I really wanna hangout with /vrg/ much since stuff seems a bit toxic, but I'd like to maybe watch weeb shit and movies with you in the future.
>>238166365
Using VR to do stuff on your computer that isn't games or dedicated apps is pretty shit, sometimes I open up 4chan to read some posts while im mid game but each letter is barely readable. If you use very large text I guess its alright, but the desktop experience is still not that great.

>>238166902

You don't really have to interact with people in those contexts. VRChat is pretty pointless, if not an extremely negative experience, if you aren't social.

>>238166365
>Sorry anon. I'm allergic to social interactions outside anonymity.
Understandable. What types of games do you enjoy?

>>238144581
static meshes and baked lights (I recommend bakery) can make the whole thing done in one call, basically. Also, you can use the same material and change the colour ramp on it with baked lighting tricks.
It's also very important to use occlusion volumes.
Anything with an identical mesh can be instanced too, so make sure you tick that box.
LOD can help a lot too, as you mentioned.
Xiexe's lighting tutorial is a good starting point.
>>238144732
You thought correctly!
As a start, make sure to check what is turned off and on by default in the reflection layers. You'll see that to save frames some things are turned off.
you could also use a render texture and do your own mirror. Just be sure to set the distance to something reasonable and use an occlusion volume.
>>238145126
your fingers can be independently tracked for things like playing instruments. For example, you could accurately play a real trumpet, and learn how to do that.
You can also make hand signs, or operate a split trigger, enforce trigger discipline, all kinds of things. You could tie grip force to actual grip in a climbing game. You could use a spinning kunai like in naruto complete with the ring around one finger, the sky is the limit. It's pretty diverse, you just need to be creative.
>>238145269

I easily spent more than that creating things in unity for vr chat, and I have a 9-5. It's the main reason why my playtime isn't as high, I spend more time sticking things into the game than "playing" the game. I usually get buzzed and socialize on friday nights though.

>>238148913
technically windows mixed reality trumps all of it if you're trying to be casual.

How is that possible when there's no deficiency in the head tracking of vive or rift?

>>238173948
looks like both are trying to rig, now way either side has that many people watching the thread

>>238172680
There is. Mainly, that the sensors are externally sourced. In vive and other valve lighthouse headsets, the beacons broadcast a passive sweep of timed IR laser light that is picked up by photodiodes on the headset as well as tracking using a 3dof imu. If there are reflections or you occlude the headset tracking divots with your arms or body, or you're close to the ground, tracking can and will drift. This happens more often on the controllers where they will shudder off in one direction or another for a bit before snapping back with precision. The headset can do this too, especially if you happen to be on the edge of the tracking volume, and other sources of IR can mess with it.
on Rift, it's a point cloud with timed lights. Constellation tech creates a point cloud of light that is the 3d shape of the headset and controllers. Each light pulses with a unique frequency to orient the headset so the rift client server software knows your position in space. This requires two 120hz high speed cameras with an IR filter and a lot of usb 3.0 bandwidth. It also suffers from occlusion issues when they are covered or you're out of view of the camera lenses, and the issues with reflections or mirrors.
WMR gives no shits. It's a pair of cameras using telemetry stereo that uses real time localized SLAM technology to recognize features (edge detection and bag of words, a derivative of ORBSLAM2). As long as the cameras can see the room, pictures, furniture, whatever, it can track, and does so with one usb port, self contained. It also has 3dof and an accelerometer. If you are not using motion controllers it's by far the most effective method. and valves new hmd will use it too. In addition, samsung 2nd headset has the current best screen and lens combo.
objectively the "best headset" is a Samsung od+ vive knuckles and trackers combo, or a pimax 5k+ with inside out and the same, or valve's hush hush hmd ;).

>>238173639
>>238173523
It's because they can't make money as fast as they thought. VR has a ton of friction to use and adoption, many people are working on reducing that friction.
Getting the headset on and getting into the game is a bit of a process right now and moreso for the more affordable offerings.
It will take off, of course, but we need to reduce the friction like psvr has done.
Granted I don't find my vive with das all that annoying to slap on since I leave it plugged in, but rift is a bit more work, and windows mixed reality can really fuck shit up with all the updates lately, even though it's the easiest to get on and off.

>>238174083
You can't really occlude the Rift from all three sensors without intentionally trying. I haven't seen the grey screen once since having three sensors and even before then it was rare. I lie down all the time and there's never any issue with the floor. Literally never have I had the headset move out of place. I've never heard anyone mention the headset doing something like that and some of the riftlets have incredibly poor two sensor set ups.

>>238175138

or anything reflective, or a non-square space. it does happen.
plus you need a rig with 3x exclusive usb 3.0 hubs. That's a tall order, and the third camera makes the setup more expensive than vive mv.

There is no reason to allow the VRCA trannies into our meetups like Noe, Denwa and Snep. Even when we're talking about topics like dancing or music or other VR games those fuckers always join and start talking about "my legs are so hairy what do i doooo my testosterone blockers didnt arrive what do i doooo i cant afford estrogen what do i doooo" and other degenerate faggot shit

Absolutely halal

why's he so cute bros?

>>238176091
If I forget to take my mirror down it only makes the controllers shake. Same with bright lights. I presume it's because two cameras can still see the headset normally so the third is ignored.

>>238176319
none of them do that lol

>>238176516
They literally were in a circlejerk with Cat the other night talking about degenerate shit like that you fucking faggot

>>238175586
so to summarize: wmr's headset has zero tracking issues unless you're in a dark area with nothing for it to track with a single usbport.
it also allows steamvr tracking volumes of any shape and size, you can put a pc in your backpack and make a game stadium scale. Imagine vrchat where you can literally walk or run everywhere manually.
In fact, fun trick I did the other day. the 6dof tracked google daydream headset is compatible with AMD's new broadcasted steamVR streaming system in the new vega drivers.
you can literally go into an empty field and play vrchat streaming from your pc and have room scale as large as you have the space to accommodate. It's REALLY crazy.

>>238176516
snep does but he doesn't even own vr and doesn't play

>>238149204
I have no problems playing shooters.
Pic related, it's an attachment I 3D printed. Hip firing is so easy.

Rift does have better controllers though. You can just pick them up and you can naturally use them, they're like an extension to your hand. The wands, on the other hand, have a learning curve, you have to get used to them, and yeah it's a frustration until you're comfortable with them.

>>238176584
you don't even go to meetups lol

>>238176664
Even the WMR controllers have all the controls you actually need in a video game, if only they where not so fucking disgustingly big and tacking was better, that big circle on the end makes using both controllers on a small object fucking impossible.

Not me
My position on vrca is that anyone who browses the thread has a place in the meetups.
I also think this argument is largely pointless because most of vrca avoids vrg. I wish some of you guys would stop false and shitpostimg anonymously about this, if you don't like someone you should say it to their face.

So it has the same occlusion problem you were just complaining about.

>>238177250
Yeah, I suspect it wouldn't track well facing the floor.

I don't use shapeways, but here's the model if you'd like to print it:

>>238177194
Ironically many well established /vrg/ members claim to avoid the thread.

Whenever there's a lot of shitposting people avoid the threads for a while

>>238177194
>it's shitposting if it's anonymously
>don't talk about this if it's not anonymously

>say it to my face, not anonymously
>if you say it to my face, I'm blocking you

>>238177460
When the threads filled with shitposting and falseflagging I don't bother to open the thread no. Maybe expand images and save ones I like and that's about it.

Is /vrg/ still just drama about VR chat, or do you all talk about games now?

>>238177854
And? What's wrong with saying what you want and facing consequences, I'm pretty sure that's how it normally works.

>>238177889
>>238177618
This general's bad threads are nothing.

>>238178338
Maybe but it's annoying to see the same shitposts they've have been posting all year

>>238177854
Why care if someone you hate blocks you?

>it's shitposting if I don't agree with you

>>238178338
It's the same bullshit all the time, they'll always find something to shitpost about. There's no reason to bother opening it when I already know what half of the thread is gonna be about. When Drawanon was around I unorinically looked forward to his next drawing of someone.

Discord is good enough for me. :^)

That's bullshit mommy and you know it. Why do they try so hard to get into our meetups knowing full well that we don't want them there?

>>238178178
>>238178527
They’re more popular than me and I’d miss out on conversation, I’d rather drive them out with anonymous shitflinging because I have zero personality and I’m not likeable.

>>238178178
It seems this anon has personal beef and wants /vrg/ to be their personal army rather than actually just blocking the offending parties. They've been pushing this narrative hard for the last few weeks.

>>238179025
Majority isn't on the tranny discord's side. https://www.strawpoll.me/17076246/r

>waaaaahh they'll block me if I bring it to the meets ;_;
Maybe it's because you're an unlikable cunt.
If things actually become a problem and someone does have the backspine to bring it to the meets, things do change.
Until then keep your shitflinging in here but don't expect people to take you serious you spineless faggot.

>>238178169
The threads have less drama than before, but there's still not a lot of non-VRChat posts. Most other games just don't have enough content.

>>238178845
based and redpilled

>>238178776
I've never observed a particularly strong desire by them to be in our meetups outside of u511 who is covered by the underage ban.
I rarely see them in the worlds and meetups that I'm in. I think most of them avoid us because they see shitposting about them here.

There are people with vrg who hang out with vrca, but I don't think that any of us get to police who other people hang out with. Are you joining off them and ending up in vrca meetups? I rarely see vrca. The last time I saw them in any great number was that time in was kicked from the vrg meetup and went to the vrca meetup instead.

>>238179346
Maybe if you took your eyes off of the brown thot for a second, you'd notice more things happening around you.

>>238179346
>I think most of them avoid us because they see shitposting about them here

You say most of them avoid us because they see the shitposting in the thread... Yet you also claim that these people are never really in our meetups at all.

Make up your fucking mind you cucked 35 year old washed up lawyer faggot

>>238179072
If the majority is on your side, votekicks shouldn't be a problem. Why not just do that instead of whining in the thread about it?

Amazing how much bad blood there is in the thread with relations in vrc, all I've ever done is hangout with people and had a good time.

>>238179787
How do you votekick when half of them are vrca?

>>238179858
It's all just anonymous shitposting from pussies that don't ever dare to say things to people's (virtual) faces.

>>238177250
no, because they're on your face. Inside out. Things in front of them become tracked objects. The only way they would be occluded is if you were literally covering them with your hands, or your room was totally blacked out, and then the 3dof and accelerometer still work. It might recalibrate your position a few inches once it regains more precision. It's an objectively better method in every way so long as the algo is reliable (and it becomes more reliable every time a major windows update is released due to machine learning.)
>>238177342
it tracks like your eyeballs do, so yes, it's just fine. Especially if you have a unique pattern or carpet.
>>238177358
I love you.
>>238179225
speaking of other games, played a lot of accounting+ last night, it's dope as fuck. There's a thing in the game now as a social experiment where they want you to tend to a plant during their winter holiday. With some kind of reward or something if you do. They're tracking it across all platforms and apparently bringing new stuff into the game all the time. It's really neat.
>>238179858
same.

evidently if you have an iphone there's an ACTUALLY GOOD 3d scanning app now. You can use this to bring things into vrchat. I am excite.

>>238179736
I just realized that the two most popular people in vrg are both 35 year old men with voicechangers. One roleplays a thirsty mommy who chases a younger guy and the other roleplays a slutty underage girl. Weird.
