Do Rift controllers actually have finger tracking?

Is there a way to increase mirror size or do you just stack multiple ones side by side?

>>240195562
a small amount of it, yes

>>240195098
This is what I envisioned VRchat was going to be, people being whatever fantasy character they want to be.

What it turned out to be was anime slut simulator.

Fuck this gay earth and everyone in it.

>>240195562
Nah, it has trigger buttons which emulate in game roughly what your actual fingers are doing.

>>240195706
But being a anime girl is my fantasy

fuck off tupper

>>240195814
It also uses sensors off of that, so it can tell if your fingers are pointing out, through the ring, or if your thumb is placed on top. The gestures in vrchat are basically all supported it's very intuitive.

>>240195706
>not being both fantasy characters, vidya characters, and anime girls
when will you learn

>>240195706
once the inevitable VR MMO comes out that actually allows in-game customization, people running around in normal humans is gonna be infinitely more common, even if animes are an option
with no endgoal or gameplay, and having male avatars or stuff like DS pic be more difficult to get in game than weebshit due to often having to rip it yourself, puts up a surprisingly large barrier to entry and not many motivators to continue
wait for actual game

>>240195562
No but knuckles do.
VRChat doesn't support it but lavender does.

>>240196901
How do people middle finger each other then? If it can't track fingers that is

Anyone know how to fix VRChat not letting you add or remove favorite Avatars?

I've been stuck with 2 no longer functioning avatars for a week and every time I unfavorite, they just load themselves back on 2 minutes later

when will oculus have their own FBT

never?

>>240197426

they dont actually do it

>>240197426
Emotes built into the avatars

>>240196901
What's lavender

>>240195652
Just increase the scale

>>240197426
You can assign hand gestures that you activate with whatever button or space on the trackpad. 7 for each hand. Have to make it yourself on your avatar in unity or use the default fist/open hand/point/fingergun/victory/thumbs up/something else I can't remember.

>>240197806
Oh I'm a fucking dummy.
I got so used to how you expand box colliders I forgot about just putting numbers to scale

>>240197932
>>240197806
Also thanks.

>>240197646
Gary's Mod for VR. Someone in /vrg/ is making it.

>>240195706
If you don't have your own video game character as an avatar its kinda silly, I have many adaptations of characters I like.

>>240195706

do you go to public worlds? there's more variety there.

Anyone have an idea on why mirrors aren't working in my world?
I followed two tutorials, the process is simple, so I doubt I messed it up.
I tried desktop and VR mode, and I reinstalled VRchat, nothing.

you should probably do something about all of em before someone cache rips and sells them for you

>>240202116
Did you make sure it's facing the right way? Is it toggleable? Maybe you did the trigger wrong.

>>240202265
>cache ripping a generic TDA model to sell
but why

>>240202341
Yep it's facing the right way and no I didn't touch toggles at all with it yet.

>>240197296
I'm kinda tempted to make an account just to reply with the picture from >>240201189.

>>240202647
you underestimate the laziness of normalfags

>>240202647
their avatars aren't really generic tdas anymore, they're pretty c u s t o m
also $$$ and lazy normalfags, when there's demand someone will try and sate it eventually

>>240201189
lmao nice

>>240201189
It wasn't Snow who caused the streamer drama earlier was it?

>>240202680
Did you use the prefab from the SDK or one from somewhere else? Maybe you have the wrong layers set on it. Not sure what could be causing it to not work. Maybe upload a pic of your mirror component.

>>240202647
you should have seen that streamers avatar after that streamable

Good night /vrg/. I love you all.

>>240202973
Good night anon!

>>240202874
Yep, and I actually used this prefab once before on a test world and it worked fine there.

>>240202265

where are cache rips even sold, and who is dumb enough to buy them? you can probably just buy them from the person that made them for a cheaper price and they could customize it for you.

>>240203219
gumroad, discord, who knows
remember that 90% of vrc's community is made up of mouthbreathers and they will 100% pay for an avatar they like, even if it's shitty Mitch Murder tier public avatars with subzero taste

>>240203348
>>240203219
Stop bullying us lazy brainlets who pay for avatars, thanks.

>>240203431
just pay me instead :^)

>>240203092
You have the newest SDK? Seems you're missing the mirror reflection shader

>>240203431
there are people here who would do it for free just so you don't give money to those faggots

>>240203524
I should, I'll try re-downloading them though.

>>240203574
Until you get bombarded with "friends" wanting a free avatar.

>>240203431
I could do it for less than whatever you're currently paying. Can't guarantee the quality but I'll do it on the cheap.

>>240203574

why do it for free? i was making avatars for friends for free then people started passing them around to people that I didn't even know. trust me, at least charge 10 to 20 bucks. you don't have to gouge them. most prefer to pay anyways for some reason. I think they feel guilty.

>>240204186
usually when someone asks for an avatar, it's their waifu, and they don't want to share
haven't had this happen to me

>>240203513
>>240203574
>>240204186
I am a brainlet who needs someone to rip and rig avatar for me. Would pay. I am dead serious too. If anyone is willing to do It, please leave a mail. I am desperate.

>>240204767
post what you want to do and people will fling instructions at you

>>240204767
>rip and rig
I hope you like dealing with a native american

>>240204749

waifu avatars take like 5 mins to get ready for vrchat, because theyre usually already made by some jap. the mimic one looks nice and is custom. i'd at least charge 25 for it. that way there's no point in ripping it to sell, because you wouldn't make that much off it. the ripper discords aren't well known so there wouldn't be that much demand for it.

>>240205609
>rip avatar
>add Discord tag floating above head, on back of hand, ect
>retards DM you asking to buy model
>profit on other's work
it wouldn't make much but free money is free money

>>240205724

I've never seen someone with something like that and youre just exposing yourself.the operation would get shut down quick. sounds like something a skript kiddie would do.

>>240206213
Script kiddies wouldn't give a shit, 25$ is 25$
It's really hard to properly stop something like this if someone was actually motivated to do it (they aren't, they'd put meme glasses on it and earrape you instead) but bans and such are effectively null and void since evasion is so trivial

Who is a good person to talk to about ripping and converting an av for vrchat? Or just making a custom one I suppose

>>240206813

ask the mimic. they make really nice custom avatars. don't know if they would do it though.

>>240207002
Damn I was playing with them earlier, I wish I knew then

Its a shame I'm shit at 3D rendering. I would love to make an avatar based on pic related.

It would only cost 5 dollars to rent a mimic? What kind of services do they offer?

>>240208364
mimicing

>>240208475

I actually would pay mimic for like a 2 hour session. Nothing too bad, like just a bj and air fuck. Would that be like $50 or something around that.

>>240201189
FUCKING 10/10 HOLY SHIT

Wtf is a mimic anyways, like what is that based on?

>Trying to fight the temptation to just fill my World with tons of random shit from video games I like

>>240201189
Absolutely based

>>240208885
Mimics tend to be old school rpg monsters that pretend to be treasure chests and attack you when you go to open it, the most brutal example is dark souls where the mimics straight up insta kill you if you attempt to open them

>>240208885
In the context of fantasy, mimics are monsters that evolved/were created to look like treasure chests to lure in adventurers and eat them.

>>240201189
Fucking legend
We need a hero like this in every meet up

>>240198598
Any character you make is a video game character

Hi, newfag here
Do I just join the Discord and people post meetups and stuff there? Is it just adding people on VRChat and joining them whenever or does VRChat have a mechanic where you can join worlds without having to be friends

>>240209315
friend
Yuru
Temporal
Shammy

they belong to NA, SEA and EU respectively.
join on them after they've accepted your friend request (they will)
Introduce yourself to them;
"Hi i'm vrg"
"I'm from the thread"
"I'm new i don't know anyone"
So basically you orbit them and meet people and mingle
it's like a chill house party
It's a good idea to go around and introduce yourself to other people as being new and if you mention you're new from vrg/thread and you friend request them they will accept your friend request.
Now when the three welcome mats aren't on you can join those other people to get to the meetup.

>>240209597
Can we just put this shit in the OP so we don't have to answer this question every thread?

>>240209850
people will still ask it

>>240210543
At least then you can just tell them to read the OP instead of having to write it all out again.

How do you go about enabling VR in CM3D2? I got it for avatar creation, but I may as well mix it up and enjoy some time with anime girls not controlled by men.

>>240211452
What are you fucking gay? Why would you want to do that?

>>240210860
That's still typing anyway.
If anyone actually lurked properly, they'd have a complete list of peoples names from screenshots and streamables and be able to figure out who to add and join off from the amount of talk about each person in the thread.
That said the standard welcome message somehow feels nice to type out. I like introducing newfags to the meetups. Seeing new ones is always interesting.

I'm only slightly autistic about sound, given the best quality is only doable from real quality headphones with detachable mics I don't expect the best with vr.

Oops, I forgot about this. There may be a little overlap with the Bowie movie but I'm going to play a bunch of Bowie music videos instead of trailers so the actual movie won't start until after 12. Should be fine. My bad teammate.

>>240221157
Any predictions? I figured after HTC and Valve splitting and HTC not doing too great overall it'll probably be an overpriced attempt at milking Vive users even more.

>>240224005
It'll definitely be fine if you're playing some music videos before. Paprika is right around an hour and a half, and I'll try to make sure we start a little more on time than usual.

Use Bigscreen if you need a virtual desktop, getting used to it sucks but it works well if you're a vivelet.
If you're a riftlet please use the virtual desktop that you already get with Rift Core 2.0 and use OculusHomeless so you don't load into your UE4 home.
If you want to check discord or a window once in a while get OVRDrop (though you can pull out windows with the Rift - but they stay static)

>>240223404
I thought they were just orbited by a really devoted squad who isolated them from everyone and shitposted them in the thread so they could be their shoulder to cry on but that backfired and they left for good instead

No. There is a thing called Vive Cloud, so it's probably just that instead.

For anyone interested in fullscratch modelling shonzo just started building a basemesh from scratch for future projects.
https://www.twitch.tv/shonzo

These kinds of things were rare before vrchat. There was maybe one or two tutorials on youtube and NOTHING on twitch generally speaking.
The top to bottom allows you to follow along, and you'll learn enough to do it yourself, and can finally throw off the shackles of mmd if you want.

>>240226010
Also, sidenote. He's not the best either and is new learner himself, so it's a really good place to start since he fumbles through things as well, and you can see the process.

So I bought and tested out Contractor$ last night...
and well it puts everything else to shame.
you can fucking SLIDE by ducking while running.
the guns feel good, the damage is good, there's objectives and respawning...
but most of all it doesn't run like a bag of dicks and the graphics are TOP FUCKING TIER, yet it's locked at 90fps.
There's an equipment system with customization and mobility penalties.
How do we redpill people over to this instead of pavlov or onward or war dust, because it's objectively the better game.

>>240226440
Convince dev to drop it to $10 price tag

>>240225484
I'm a wmrcuck.

>>240223131
I am not I dislike everyone equally.

Why is every VR game 3 hours long and $50? If VR just a place where devs go to scam idiots with shallow 'experiences'? Where are the fucking games.

>>240226653
quit saying nigger like some edgy teenager

>>240226440
I wish it would have private servers like pavlov and onward instead of just squad with steam friends
Also more game modes and maps

You only have to convince Yuru to buy it. The others will follow.

>>240226878
>RTX 2060
Why would anyone buy a card that can barely run its own selling point? The 2070 is already bad enough.

>>240226654
It doesn't cater to anyone who wants a load of single player stories to play through, which I grew tired of in 2006. It's best for games where you do a variation of the same thing, like Beat Saber, H3VR's take and hold, Eleven, Pokerstars, and multiplayer FPS.

>>240226010

Thanks. I actually learned a lot from him already.

>>240227307
What a nice excuse from a vr shill poster.

>>240226490
It's most certainly worth a lot more than they're asking.
I had a few bucks in my steam wallet so I only paid 5$ or so, but it's WAY the hell more polished than onward or pavlov, it's astounding it's still in early access, since it's 90% more complete than 95% of shooters on the store now.
Pretty sure it's dx12 as well.

A lot of people say that most people who get vr try it a few times and then set it aside until a good game comes out, or never again, but truth is if they sold that headset there would be someone who would use it literally every day.
So, getting vr into the hands of the right people, and redpilling the "right" gamers is the way to go.

I keep shilling VR to the rest of /vg/ in indirect ways, I sometimes even go to generals of games I never played before like azure lane just asking about characters to find qt avatars, while trying to get it into the rest of their heads they'll never be able to truly see or touch their boatfu and lamenting if only their were a way.

I AM SO FUCKING HYPE FOR CES HOLY FUCKING SHIT

>>240228470
Is there a stream for this shit? When I looked it up all I saw was a page about the future of streaming.

>>240228470
Nah dude, prepare to be disappointed.

>>240228470
I swear to god if HTC announces a fucking mobile headset like the quest then VR will die

>>240228470
Why? What on earth do you think they'll be showing?

>>240201189
Fucking based

>>240225719
unironically not ok

can we just go back to spouting "gas the kaminos" or something unoriginal

>>240228714
Nah stop exaggerating. HTC was always the do X thing first and then die out later on as the industry goes big company.

>>240228686
I literally cannot be disappointed unless Ryzen 3 is the lie of the century. 5.1GHz stock clock w/ Intel-grade IPC = day one buy
>>240228714
This is brainlet mode. We have a consumer XTAL on the way. High end PCVR will always exist, and frankly, half the industry doesnt even give a shit about gaming and will always be there regardless.

>>240229032
I still remember when HTC was dominating the android phone market. Literally every single person had one. If the same trend continues then the other tech companies will copy and pave the way for more headsets.

>>240229097
Great, another half baked "high specs" headset from a literally who company. That's totally what I wanted.

Reminder, HTC keynote at CES 2019 is in 5 hours

>>240228982
t. ugly smelly furry

>>240229331
Face it, it's going to be another imperfect overpriced headset almost no one buys. If you expect anything more then you're just setting yourself up for disappointment.

Lets be real here, true 2nd gen of headsets will begin with eye tracking. Every other feature is just a meme at this point.

>>240229379
People here only care about waifu gay shit, mobile is all they need so they can lay in bed and erp with people on vrc.

>>240229746
This is true.

Might be valve headset because of 135 deg FOV. The maximum 'presence' is attained somewhere between 100 and 140 degrees.

>>240230056
Pretty much, though I doubt glasses would replace goggles for VR, that would be for AR shit. The goggles would enable a full FOV, glasses would fuck with that and other things for multiple reasons.

>>240230056
you forgot haptic feedback. I guess you thought of it with body suits

this is your brain on weeb shit >>240230056

>>240230420
Yeah fair point, even with laser projection mapping images directly onto the iris you're still going to have to deal with light bleed.
>>240230424
You've already got haptic feedback in gloves nowadays, its a given.
>>240230429
You're an idiot if you think we'd not be on the way towards brain interfaces by 10th gen, assuming each gen is 2 years apart, that's a long, long time in tech. There is brain to brain tech and brain to computer tech already today in a primitve form.

I am also excited for mobile VR for various reasons. Partly because I am not a NEET and will actually have opportunity to use it like I already use my Gear.
You should be excited because the midrange Navi card will push 1080 power for $249.

>>240230758
I'm pretty good with most forms of VR listed, but I really don't think I'd ever be hooking myself up to the matrix. The moment I do that I will never be able to know for sure if I ever came out and would be permanently paranoid

don't be so sure, negligible aging is not out of reach for anyone aged 40 and below these days.

Yuru, if you're going to desktop at least be considerate and put a chair on your model so you can transport your betters.

So I booted up unity after a few weeks of not using it and now VRChat's SDK refuses to give me fucking options in the plugin and unity won't use dynamic bones. I've updated to the right version of unity and reinstalled the SDK multiple times. What the fuck happened?

Are they spread out compared to your IRL legs/feet? You probably just need to calibrate with your feet splayed out, then you'll pull your toes/legs together when sitting naturally.

>>240237350

Yes. If say, my legs are spread out by 30 degrees irl in game they are spread out for like 60 degrees

I had a similar experience where we were doing a high school roleplay at Doki Doki and this cute anime boy with a hispanic accent that was sitting next to me kept hitting on me.

When you're t-posing for calibration, point your feet outwards when you hit the triggers, so that when you stand naturally after calibration, your toes point in and hopefully your knees do too.

More holistically, you can probably edit your leg armature rotations in blender so that the IK doesn't splay your knees out, but it's hard to help with that without screenshots of your specific avatar and bones.

That's gay but gay is only tangentially related to proteus.

>>240237542
I know that's a common argument but here's why you're most certainly wrong:
Cures for cellular degeneration are also cures for the things that kill most people in old age. Cancer, metabolic disorders, macular degeneration, bone strength depletion, mental deterioration, all of it is due to sensient cellular breakdown.
It will cost us LESS TAXES to give people generic treatments to slow or halt general aging. Fat, old useless people are the biggest drain on the economy even in places that don't have universal healthcare (basically everywhere except the usa) and even in the USA old people get taken care of at the taxpayer expense because they don't pay their medical debts before they die, and rack them up huge taking care away from everyone else.
If you give someone preventative treatment and they can basically work until they're dead, and are productive independent people with next to no chronic medical issues, the cost savings on that alone is absolutely huge.

>>240238167
what's the side-view look like? you may have to bend the knees slightly forward if they're not already. Maybe also aligning the toe bones on the Y-axis with the rest of the bones would help, since afaik that's where the leg trackers "bind" to so you can wiggle your feet around.

>>240238302

Human labour is becoming rapidly less valuable. The economic incentive will be human consumption. It is already the case on the internet.

Hello, I am fairly new and have 0 technical knowledge, sorry.

How difficult/lengthy is the process of "exporting"/ripping/rigging a character from another game for use in VrChat? Are there any tutorials available? I know pretty much next to nothing about it. I am interested in using my mmo character for use in vrchat. Would anyone be so kind to provide some guides/tutorials, eventually someone to commission to do that in exchange for money? Would reward handsomely. (I'd honestly prefer that way as I am a very busy person). Any help or replies would be appreciated.

>>240238371
They weren't indeed bent forward. Thanks. Gonna fix it now

>>240230056
>wireless
Fuck that, a Vive+Wireless isn't next gen compared to Vive on wire.
No SDE, huge FOV, better resolution AND wireless. That will be next gen.

>>240239624
It's harder than just clicking a few buttons and sliders, but easier than you probably think, especially with motivation. If your character is from a common enough mmo, game there are probably ripping tools out there a google away. If not, I'd recommend starting with something easier like a basic MMD import, which gets you the basics of unity and blender and there are plenty of tutorials linked in the OP for, and _then_ worry about the ripping part.

>>240239624
What game are you trying to rip from?

>>240234141

>>240239945
Thank you so much, I might look into it!

To my understanding as somebody who mostly lurks/barely interacted with any of these people at the time: some guy who would sad/vaguepost with pics of Mami (also called "Mamianon"). Gave a talk about networking that Jelly heckled him during that derailed into the thread (I was at the previous EU hours of this presentation and everything went fine). "Left" the community multiple times but would come back to the thread if not outright monitor it to reply to posts about him or stir up shit about Jelly. Last I remember was somebody (probably him?) posted a pic of him and 3DPD girlfriend or whatever as some kind of weird dickwave before fucking off completely.

>>240248139
only humanoid avatars are animated in vrchat. As you might guess each armature that is not humanoid can be different so it's not possible to make a global set of animations for them

if you want animations with a generic skeleton you need to make them yourself

Interrupting all this gay shit for an update on my unity stick movement script for steamVR
>>239940178 (Cross-thread)

Turns out that the movement wasn't properly head relative but just relative to the playspace transform, which made it weird if you ever turned around. Somehow I missed it at first. I fixed it though, updated:

literally all you need to do is set the avatar controller to "none" and then back to humanoid after you overwrite your prefab with a new mesh, nbd.

Try it, and relax a little. It just has the old mesh index and is trying to use it, which won't work.

>>240252253
And that's a good thing.

>>240251775
I'm guessing you meant the animation type and not the avatar controller. I had already tried that. It still breaks

>>240252980
I mean both. You need to remove some of the constraints of the prefab. If the bones or mesh change significantly you should right click the prefab and click "reimport"

>>240253209
Avatar controller was also set to none

>>240252980
(and also in the scene). The point is you have something looking for previous settings and not finding them.
You may just need to delete the prefab and add the new one in. Pumpkin's tools can allow you to copy from one model to a new model so that you can work with the new fb and save time.

Get a cheap WMR for now and wait for price drops and better support later

>>240255019
Absolutely not. This is a pro product, and foveated rendering and eye tracking needs explicit software support, which isn't happening for most programs until this becomes a consumer product that people will actually buy.

What driver? Nvidia mentioned VRWorks. VRWorks needs explicit support from developers to work. And is there even a guarantee that the one or two games that do currently have VRWorks support is using a version of VRWorks that supports the foveated rendering that this will come with? Do you have any source at all that guarantees that all current games will just werk with foveated rendering?

FOV-Rendering where the outside of your viewing field is not rendered in the same resolution as your sweet spot, meaning massively less performance is used for VR gaming.

Other than that there is really no use for it outside of moving your eyes in VRC I guess?

>>240256114
It's called foveated rendering. Foveated comes from fovea. Not Field of View.

>Other than that there is really no use for it outside of moving your eyes in VRC I guess?

Nope. It has tons of use, the likes of which you or I probably can't even imagine yet.

Is it just me or is there no grip button on that?

>>240257360
I'm in no rush to upgrade my headset. I'll take new controllers but the headset is fine.
Honestly what I really need is a bigger playspace.

>>240257570

>>240257670
Nah, it's the best time to buy. HTC showed their next steps, and it's literally nothing that will actually matter to us. The only one you'd want to hold out for is Valve, but knowing their track record, you're never guaranteed any timeline for delivery, even if it feels like things might be coming from them "soon".

so, apparently this thing with support being connected to your phone, your pc, and standalone?

and it uses inside out tracking, AND it has side cameras so no more windows mixed reality occlusion issues.

maybe it will be possible to mod vive and vive pro with it

>>240257670
It's the best time.

They showed nothing. Valve headset is coming after knuckles, and knuckles are nowhere to be seen anytime soon

>>240258078

>>240257982
>>240257924
Interesting camera placement though. This headset might theoretically have more horizontal FOV for controller tracking, while Quest will have higher vertical. Which matters more? Hard to say. It varies from game to game.

>>240258042
no, because you can connect it to pc. >>240258096
no, they're visually tracked like windows mixed reality.

>>240257924
Side cameras don't cover above, below, or behind you. You're still going to have gaps.

>>240257924
Is that a speaker on the front?

>>240258229
meant for >>240258096

>>240258253
they're 180. There's next to zero issues with just two cameras on windows mixed reality, these are going to be even better, literally just a small area behind you won't be tracked I'm sure.

>>240258248
I mean in terms of the controllers.

>>240258243
Ideally you'd have both, but I think vertical would be more useful in most cases.

>>240258248
while not officially supported (yet), this push back from htc will probably boost their research into it
https://twitter.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/1046543227917148161

>>240258381
>>240258454
Actually if it's true they're 180 degree, then it might have more FOV than Quest. However, we know that prototypes for Quest used 180 degree sensors too (so maybe it's staying that way for the consumer product). If all that's true, then the Quest has more overlap between the cameras, while the Cosmos has less. What does this mean in practice? No one knows. But Carmack has mentioned before, I believe that some overlap gives you benefits somewhere, don't remember exactly.

>>240258381
if you put the controller above your head it would be out of view

So far the support for trackers has been abysmal, and they're probably a fraction of the price of a Vive ProPro

>>240259625
K, we playing a vidjogame and its being hosted by one anon. What would you suggest, telepathically reading anon's minds to gauge what time to do :^)? Post in the thread if you want as well, either works.

>>240259415

I imagined it already, years ago, but for an eventual headset not made by HTC and actually affordable and supported by devs.

>>240249456
they're pure don't disappoint yourself

>>240259858
You can. You just have to sacrifice tracking in some places around your body. Oh and you have to deal with calibrating the trackers with the tracking of the new headset like you do with Rift plus trackers.

>>240259858
God I hope. All they need is to be visible to the lighthouses and bind to the headset.

>>240259836
>>not monitoring the thread 24/7 and being an all inclusive community and being a human being

i hop u burn in hell ashole

>>240259858
I would bet this headset is either in the windows mixed reality ecosystem. Maybe not, but possibly. Either way, if it doesn't work with pc it'll be a non-starter for their core audience so there's a good chance it will be a steamvr integrated product.

>>240260213
In the future if I host it will be the same exact way

these controllers will not work with lighthouse.
it's very obvious they're copying WMR visible light skeleton pose tracking tech.

>Cosmos isn't a standalone and needs to be connected to something else
So it's basically just a better WMR, and you have the ability to use it with a portable thing wired into your pocket to run "Vive Reality". Not too impressive. And the tracking will be worse since it's WMR style. No thanks, HTC.

>>240260445
actually it's supposed to be both standalone and pc connected.
And with the cameras the way they are it's unlikely to have tracking issues

>>240260357
Yes and can you answer this post then? >>240256057

>>240260580
>can't hide anything behind your back

>>240260580
You won't be able to reach over your head or behind your back. I'm sure it'll be better than the WMR headsets are right now, but it's not going to be as good as the lighthouse tracking.

>>240260580
Where did they say it's a standalone? Didn't seem to confirm it anywhere I could tell.

>Introducing VIVE Cosmos, a new premium PC VR system

So, Cosmos is literally HTC's next consumer PC VR headset. Haha. Hahaha...

are there any games to ease you into the entire VR movement thing? i only just got my rift a couple of days ago and i tried contractors for the first time but i felt pretty lousy fast desu
are there any games with slower movement so i can get used to it more?

>>240262252
Usually how it goes is that you first play games without movement. Games like Superhot, Robo Recall, etc. That helps your body acclimate to perceiving VR in general, which enables you to better or more quickly overcome motion sickness later on. Then you move on and try games where you move, and if you're still not good, you can try Pavlov which isn't too fast.

>>240261994
>>240262204
>Just like the Vive and Vive Pro, the Vive Cosmos needs a processing source (such as a PC) to function. However, HTC executives suggested it will be able to run on a PC or a smartphone, rather than just one of those devices. It has two front-facing cameras and uses two motion-tracking controllers.

>>240262252
Try using VRChat with snap turning to get used to VR, then move onto games like Pavlov and sooner or later you should have no motion sickness.
It's how I got used to VR.

I switched to smooth turning last month and I'm happy that I can enjoy anything.
When you get comfortable you could also try games like War Thunder to get used to flying in VR.
But if you just want to play light games, try playing games where you use teleporting as a movement mechanic at first or if you feel that you can handle it, play games that have a comfort mode and walk using your touchpad/joystick, then later turn off comfort mode when you're used to VR.
There's also this for you to try out varying VR locomotion modes:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/584170/Freedom_Locomotion_VR/
and this:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/798810/Natural_Locomotion/
but I haven't tried natural locomotion so I don't know how good or bad it is.
Getting used to VR doesn't take long, if you're in your first week, try having short sessions (30 minutes to an hour) and remember to take breaks, but always get back to it, that's how you get your VR legs.

>>240262534
i've tried some games with teleportation so far and those don't really impact me, so that's good
i happened to buy pavlov before i got my rift since it was on sale for 5 bucks on steam, so i'll give that a try tomorrow, or perhaps i'll try VR chat first
thanks

>>240263665
no, its literally wmr controllers

>>240263774
H3VR is good for that, with armswinger movement. You can take it at your own pace, Pavlov is pretty fast and it requires you to move around a lot, unless you play with bots. Play Onward before that, as it's a bit easier on the movement part too, and frankly looks better than Pavlov.

>>240263774
No, I meant that playing non-movement games actually shortens the amount of time you may have to spend suffering just to get overcome motion sickness. Some people have reported literally solving motion sickness just by playing VR games without any movement. Some part of it is because your brain gets used to telling how the VR visual inputs differ from real life, so it comes to learn that you're not actually moving in real life even though your eyes see movement, thus elimating the cause of motion sickness which is the conflict between what your organs sense.

>>240263883
does Onward also use thumbstick for the movement? 23 bucks for a game that looks that bad is a bit much

>>240264064
oh i see, i'll try a bit of everything

>>240251460
gaemdev update, I figured out how to get the steam audio spatializer working. It's a lot more impressive with the headset actually on, but you can still hear the baked reverb in this flat video. Wear headphones for better effect

https://streamable.com/9h8v5

Audio occlusion like that would be cool to have in vrchat.

I just ordered my first headset, I'm pretty excited!

>>240264259
did you get the cosmos??

>>240264203
Oh nice. Oculus apparently will have a pretty cool audio spacialization solution as an update to their plugin, that doesn't require baking and works in real time without much processing cost, which should come out sometime next year.

>>240264179
Onward is also stick movement, though it's relative to the controller, not the head, which is annoying imo. it does look and sound better than pavlov, but not better enough to be worth the price and online play is dead, at least around vrg.

>>240264179
Yeah.
I was under the impression Onward looks good, but I guess you can skip/refund it if you don't like it, and stick to Pavlov+H3VR. I've yet to try contractors myself so.

>>240264353
A Lenovo Explorer, I'm too much of a poorshit to buy the bigboy toys. Heard this is perfectly fine though.

>>240264572
Tracking is kinda limited, but it's mostly fine yeah.

>>240264482
Cool, I'm looking to try them all. FWIW steam audio spatialization still works without baking, but the reverb calculated from geometry requires baking afaict. I also want to try out google's thing https://developers.google.com/resonance-audio/ Good audio simulation is important for VR.

>HTC's next PC VR headset doesn't even use Lighthouse
Welp.

>>240257359
well that confirms they've completely split with Valve. They look fucking nothing like the knuckles prototypes Valve are working on.

>>240263774
I forgot to mention that Pavlov is one of those games that I tried the very first time I got VR and I jerked a bit back when I stepped forward in-game, the movement speed of the player is way too fast for it to be your first VR game imo.
Try what others suggested.

>>240265185

>>240265092

>>240265572

>TC says that the Vive Pro Eye will launch in Q2 of 2019.

>>240266003

>>240265640
I don't even understand how their partners fucked that up though.
SteamOS should have waited until it was mature, but Steam Machines basically amounted to "hey, build a Midrange gaming PC in an HTPC form factor and preinstall SteamOS plz"
That's pretty much all it should have took.

>>240266003

The look of sheer joy on this Weedle's face.
Tonight he eats as a King.

Daily reminder that if you want to buy a VR headset, don't wait. You'll be waiting forever.

Are all Nanachi's autistic?

Not sure about Google's, but I think it's more optimized for mobile. On PC, I see developers mostly using Oculus or SteamVR's audio sdk, if not their own. And in my opinion, SteamVR/Oculus probably is the best currently. Google's audio demo didn't impress me as much. But that's subjective.

And here's a blog talking about what Oculus is trying to do. It's apparently able to do geometry accurate reverb and reflections in real-time, which means it's dynamic. https://www.oculus.com/blog/simulating-dynamic-soundscapes-at-facebook-reality-labs/

WMR is king of affordable VR.
Vive is overpriced garbage and unless you want to play tic tac toe behind your head, performance is 80% of headsets priced x4 as much.

Please leave.

Oh it also does dynamic real-time occlusion as well. Can't remember if the occlusion in other audio solutions was dynamic or not.

Anyone know where I can buy the rental mimic avatar and how much it would cost?

>>240267194

Yes, especially if a irl girl is using it. She’ll probably be into sonic porn too.

You have to suck cock live on your stream.

>>240268627
The creator is on the vrchat subreddit. You should ask there,

What about if a pay the yellow cat to take my place?

I got all 25! oh god the quality is awful I have no idea how to webm

The lighting in this world made UCTS2 nuclear

Oh well then. You know the best thing about CES and HTC's announcement? That they probably aren't the ones who will make Valve's headset or knuckles. Thank god.

I can't believe the two pillars of our community are proteused.

>>240272420
Invalidum has been proteused for a while. Yuru hasn't fallen yet though.

Pillars topple and society decays.
The end times are upon us.

Daily reminder to always headpat the Nanachis. If you are lucky they will Nnnaaa for you!

Still pure! I made the shopkeeper Yuru version public so don't trust screenshots of that avatar.
I'll be back in VR tonight, although I'll be stuck in one spot due to a very short replacement cord.

name my band
