/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #1576

alright im declaring this one as the main thread cause fishe

first for fresnels are garbage and you should be using a pancake lens headset

I'm getting nervous about Chorketown Chorkesisters...

Threadly Dirt Rally 2.0 reminder, we're currently running H2 FWD in Australia.
Event runs through Monday (4/29), so try to get your run in as soon as you can.
Club link is in the OP rentry if you're interested.

Attention European Chorketowne fans. I need to gauge reactions. I am running up against the time limit with only an hour and a half until the start.

I really want to cancel the EU hours Chorketowne 3 instance to give me more time to polish everything for the first impression. However, I don't want to do it if there are that many people who can only show up before the NA instance.

If it's only a handful of people who will miss and don't mind perhaps me doing an EU Chorketowne on Saturday or Sunday, i'd like to do that, but if enough EU Chorkers want me to just go with the original time with the knowledge that it'll be missing some features, I can maybe do it.

Let me know what you think.

EU Chorketown in an hour and a half...

gg dashers

>>475245247
If we do decide on today then keep in mind i'll only probably stay to host for an hour or so before hopping off to get back to work before the NA instance to get more done.

>>475245247
Better to postpone by day than to rush it if you're not ready.

>>475245247
I'd also be fine with going tomorrow です

>>475245247
make the EU one tomorrow evening then instead of unfinished map

>>475245247
Don't think there's anything tomorrow so it should be no issue.

>>475245842
>>475245758
>>475245580
>>475245903

Okay, my apologies. I had more time working on this than previous years, but I was far more ambitious which only became apparent a few days ago. It's smaller than last years, but it's also an interior so it's not as much emptiness.

Anyway i'll get back to work and see anyone who stays up tonight, or tomorrow for EU hours at around the same time.

>>475241905 (Cross-thread)
Tell people you're new and from the thread and they will try to include you in conversations/activities more

>>475245247
I'm an NA who was going to go to the EU Chorketowne because it was more convenient time-wise for me (I'm busy from 8EST-12EST today, and similar time tomorrow). Having it postponed would honestly be not so bad for me since I'm running on fumes and could really do with getting a nap in (I have a messy NEET sleep schedule). Either way I'll probably try to show up to the NA instance late when I get home.

Ah, hello Anon! The Black Mesa Research Facility has asked me to say a few words regarding our hiring event. I'm afraid we'll be deviating from our standard onboarding orientation, but for good reason! This is a rare opportunity for us. These are the most highly trained professionals we've seen yet, and potentially the most unstable.

=WHEN=
Our hiring event will begin on May 18th. We'll be taking you through a standard day in our Anonymous Materials department, but considering your education you should feel just at home.

=HOW=
I'm afraid our team has been rather thin as of late. We could really use some more research associates, hazardous material operators, even sector security. The Administrator has permitted me to offer our uniform catalogue to potential hires at this time.

Anon, we have complete confidence in you. Well, go ahead, let's let you continue browsing the thread now.

>>475239749 (Cross-thread)
An attempt was made
Also I think either enabling Replay Buffer in OBS or changing output format to mp4 made the recording quality garbage

>>475246518
Good luck. I know what you mean, i've been up for like 24 hours now.

>>475244405 (OP)
Soccer season will be starting up soon which means it's time to change up our roster!

Suggest any new VR or /vrg/ related memes you'd like to see on the team and what you think their model should look like in this google form below. The roster poll will begin sometime next week.

>>475246717
Did you make sure to increase default bitrate? I use replay buffer with mp4 and never have a problem with quality

>>475247034
Yuru!

>>475247594
Ok it was because I changed from NVENC HEVC to NVENC H.264 without increasing the bitrate.

>>475247034
>He didn’t vote for looking good yuru

>>475247818
>>475248150
Yeah, I get it, you guys want that thing on the team, it'll be on the poll with the goal horn being that song.

>>475248383
please dont add this shit

>>475249982
I agree and I'm yuru

>>475249982
It'll be put to a vote.

>>475245074
Also, WRC VR support is supposedly releasing on the 30th, but they're calling it a beta release.
Not planning on switching over the rally events to WRC from Dirt Rally 2.0 until it's more stable, but I'll pick it up soon to try out.

Vote yuru!

The SDK isn't allowing me to build and test my map, it's saying "Shader error in 'Silent/Filamented (Specular setup)': Couldn't open include file 'Assets/_pi_/_LTCGI/Shaders/LTCGI.cginc'. at Assets/Filamented/FilamentLightLTCGI.cginc(7)", is there anything I can do to fix this shit other than redoing all the hundreds of materials I have set up so far?

>>475250457
The performance hit is gonna be too big. I don't think most people will be able to run it at acceptable resolution.

>>475249982
I disagree and I’m yuru

>>475250874
Yeah, I'm kinda worried about VR performance since people were already complaining about performance issues in the flat version.

>>475250876
>>475250075

>>475250801
Try deleting silent filamented and reimporting it

>>475251442
I fixed the Silent shader issue but now it just doesn't actually finish the build and load vrchat, it gives me "win32exception: application not found"

When is someone going to make a good headset?

>>475255274
There's plenty of good headsets that came out in the last 2 years.
But there is no perfect headset.

I'm setting up ProTV for the first time, does anyone have any idea how to add multiple volume sliders so I can have one at each tv? I've done it with the old broken video player but

>>475256948
just copy and paste the component and drag it over to the other TV?

>>475257142
I mean it visually does that but I can't control the slider, the ui is just there but not the actual code i think?

>>475257192
Did you duplicate the whole controls ui or just the volume slider? iirc you need the whole thing, but you can disable the other buttons and then resize the volume slider. Also make sure it is still parented to the video player, and has the video player reference correctly set

>>475257359
Yeah I saw that setup just after I responded, makes sense, that'll work.

Drunk Pavlov will be attempted today at 12 ET or 7ish hours. We're gonna be trying out the jumping mod that the EUs tried on tuesday. So its gonna be a bit wackier than usual :)

>>475257515
I thought pavlov wasn't happening tonight? Well, that's a decent time I guess, 2 hours after the other event start so I can do both.

>>475245247
I won't mind if you do it tomorrow instead honestly.

>>475259006
Yeah that was what I decided on. Will be doing NA tonight, and EU tomorrow.

>>475246560
Oh FUCK yes this is right up my alley, please tell me there's gonna be an EU instance hosted for this too

>>475245247
Hey newfag here what's this event even about :o

>>475259734
It started as an event specifically not meant to be about anything, 3 years ago, to the point where the name was chosen as it provided 0 results on any search engines. Since then it's turned into something of a skub/anti-skub in terms of how people react to it in the thread.

In simple terms, it's just a hangout event, usually with some sort of scavenger hunt activity, where the host makes a new map for it each year.

>>475252494

>>475259832
ah thank you sounds like fun I might come later but it sounds like its being delayed till tomorrow

>>475260901
The EU one that would've started 40 minutes ago is being postponed, yes. The NA hours one in 4 hours or so is going on as planned.

>>475260901
>>475261127
Come to Karaoke instead!

>>475259172
no EU host just yet but we're happy to offer the position to a willing go-getter such as yourself. try sending a company email to cupcakebomber

Weekly Bar Crawl #13 "Making the Cut" Edition

A weekly hang where every friday, a new bar (or bar related, or map with a large bar), no repeats. ever. Starting 9 PM EST for normal humans.

This week in news, im gaming while waiting for my draft notice. Also summer is fast approaching. Get those 4th avatars started.

Place to hang out and unload. Only requirement is to show up (sober or awake being optional).

Join instructions when event starts.

This weeks map: Voltage Barcade

>>475277151
Chrokebros they're scheduling over us...

>>475277304
Its every week, so I cant not

I however, would prefer people support chorke. Good work on the map

>>475248383
Did I submit my misaligned bigscreen gasket meme from before I forget

>>475281020
You did yes, although I'm not sure I understand your aesthetic idea on how to show a crooked gasket on the player since the gasket is in between the headset and the face and so you wouldn't really see it.
The Beyond player will probably be called "Bigshit Begone" since I've always found that name funny.

>>475255595
i forgor the name but its made by blue cat

Avatar Testing World

Makes it easy to log in and see how my outfit looks in VR, especially with lighting and clipping stuff that I wouldn't see from the first person perspective with it's free standing copy of your model.

>>475281346
You just make the headset itself look clearly cooked on the face, since the gasket determines how it sits. Might be kinda hard to see from a distance but I dunno. We'll see if people like it I guess.

>>475282681
Okay, gotcha

>>475255595
VRChat Home, since VRC kept glitching and resetting my homeworld anyway so I eventually gave up and stick with the default.

how do you link an index controller gesture to a toggle?

>>475283724
Set your animation state to activate on a specific gesture.

BAR UP GOGOGOGO
https://vrch.at/tqvvxfzq

mahjong tim https://vrch.at/f9bcxbzd

Well the lighting is going to be scuffed because it takes a while to render and I have a few other things to get rushed finished, but Chorketowne 3 will be in about a half an hour.

would you recommend an index in 2024

>>475284408
>Riggway
This is one of the guys that is grooming the new underage attention whore over at trash. Her name is Lilac and she gets kicked from TT and trash meetups, but a few groomers are trying to keep her in.

>>475284973

>>475286859
not really, get a quest 3

>>475286859
If you can find the entire kit cheap and want FBT later down the line then yeah.
Otherwise no, get a Quest 3.

>>475287381
>>475287381
>>475287807
Whats your reasoning? I"m not opposed to it I just assumed it wouldn't be better than an index

>>475288112
quite low res, dated fresnel lenses. everything else about the index is good tho. great mic, great audio, comfortable, good fov

>>475288112
https://vr-compare.com/compare?h1=0jLuwg808-j&h2=0q3goALzg

Huge increase in resolution, the Quest 3 uses pancake lens instead of fresnel, there's extremely little glare especially compared to the Index which is notorious for its glare and godrays, Quest 3 has almost perfect edge to edge clarity. Wireless, passthrough, hand tracking.
Pretty much only upside to Index is 144hz mode (as compared to Quest 3's 120hz), the audio/mic, and no compression/latency/artifacting due to being wired.
Also base station tracking is better but you can upgrade to that and Index controllers later down the line anyway if you want to.

>>475286859
I just got a Quest 3 after my Index broke, the quest 3 is overall better, but the Index does outshine it in two areas, namely, the controllers, and the audio.

The Quest 3 is lighter, more durable (important), wireless (also important), and while its basically a gimmick because its hardly implemented in any games, the hand tracking is so good that when I was viewing my real hands via passthrough, it took me a full minute to realize that those were in fact my real hands, and not the digital ones.

>>475288639
>Also base station tracking is better but you can upgrade to that and Index controllers later down the line anyway if you want to.

The index controllers work cross compatable? I wouldn't have a problem upgrading to them=

>>475288112
Not that anon, but each headset has its pros and cons.
Pros for Index:
>Insanely good audio (nothing else comes close)
>Great mic
>Excellent FOV
>No batteries to worry about
>No play space calibrator for Vive/Tundra-based FBT
>Finger tracking (when using native controllers)
>Pretty comfy despite the weight


Cons for Index:
>Comparatively low res to newer headsets
>Pretty bad fresnel glare
>Chews through cables
>Overpriced as fuck if not bought used/refurb
>Base stations can be a pain if you can't drive screws into your walls


Pros for Q3:
>Pancake optics (better sweet spot, less glare)
>Good res
>Decent quality panels
>Relatively cheap
>Good aftermarket accessory support
>Can be used wirelessly

Cons for Q3:
>Battery is shit if you want wireless
>Audio is lackluster (but serviceable)
>Mic is shit
>Play space calibrator sucks if you want to use Vive/Tundras for FBT or Index controllers
>Need a good router if you want wireless to not be shit
>Limited controller tracking FOV if you use native controllers

Most of Index's cons are purely in visual quality/clarity so if you find the tradeoff worthwhile for better everything else it's still a good buy.

>>475286337
Gunna be like 10-15 minutes late sorry

>>475289216
>The index controllers work cross compatable?
Not natively, but the software people use for hybrid (oculus + vive tracker) works by overlapping the play spaces so if youre using SteamVR the index controllers will work.

>>475289216
They're not natively cross compatible but you download a software called OpenVR Space Calibrator (link in the OP guide on headsets) and it's able to sync the Quest playspace with your SteamVR playspace which allows you to use Index controllers in any SteamVR/PCVR game flawlessly as well as full body tracking for Quest headset users/any non-native headset.

Chorketowne has fallen. Millions must die.

>>475289817
>>475289487
sounds like a nice upgrade then

>>475289340
Also it should be noted that if you use any wireless headset, including the Quest 2/3 (even with cable), the overall video quality is a bit worse. Higher res but that's defeated by lower video quality. You really really want to get 10-bit virtual desktop setup otherwise you will be coping about the video artifacts.

>>475290228
Sorry had to fix something, uploading now, it'll be up in 10 minutes tops.

>>475287347

>>475291290
Yeah I was trying not to be too harsh about wireless since most people don't seem to care but I do fucking hate it, banding is shit. Also forgot a couple other things about Quest like the vignetting which is kinda ass.

>>475284973
>>475287347
>>475291675
It's Chorke Friday you fags. Stop NOW.

>>475292739
They can play, i'm still waiting for this last minute light bake I had to do to finish anyway.

>>475292739
Chat, is this Real?

>>475293206
sorry chat member i forgot pic

>>475292802
Can you take like an hour and a half extra so it won't be up until I actually get home

unity decided to fuck with mne for some reason.Now I can't tell if it uploaded correctly or if it's stuck with realtime lighting because it aborted the fucking light bake data that took me 30 minutes, the download for the world is like 100mb smaller than it was when I was testing it


Alright, Chorketowne is up. It's honestly more scuffed and unfinished than I wanted but I already started late and skipped EUs, so see this more as a proof of concept and a chance to potentially give some pointers or ideas if you have them. Or don't, whichever. I've been up for like 38 hours straight trying to work on it so some stuff missing or broken is obvious. Anyway

You can go ahead and join on this link: https://vrch.at/7sc3jhhy

he bought

>>475296538
Did someone take up the mantle for running it this year? i’m currently helping the handling of the racist event so not sure if I can handle it until the event is over. Potentially can do but if someone else can take it up for this year it’ll be best.

>>475301697
I will show up but I don't drink because I'm a good boy, I'm bad enough at Pavlov sober as is

>>475302738

of course this retard shows up to the loser event

chorketown is and always will be exactly what you think it is but once you're on your third one you kinda get sucked into the lore desu

>>475297009
>>475302572
Fuck off fags. it'd be better if the lighting hadn't broken at the last minute.

the image of the girl in the bathtub eating fries is real btw

>>475295460
How long is this instance going to be going for? I just got home and have dinner to eat and let settle in my tummy before I get on.

>>475304443
it will probably still be up in 30 minutes or longer
just make sure to ask the green skeleton for the tour

>>475304732
absolutely SMASHED AND SLAMMED

>>475304443
My rubrick from the beginning was "I'll stay until i'm literally the only one here or 3am", so you've got time.


Anyway, thanks for everyone who stopped by. I apologize again that it wasn't perfect polished - mostly the fact that the lighting is fucked Realtime is what really pissed me off. If it at least had proper lighting like I delayed the start to achieve, I would've been a bit happier.

Regardless, i'll make sure to keep at it and get the mall as good as it can be before next year's event.

Uh HELLOOOO? Guys??? It's Mahjong/Pavlov hours why are you on some shitty map?

Don't care, I went to and enjoyed Chorketowne.

Okay, the "I need to finish this map" energy has worn off and the no sleep and no food has caught up with me. I'm hopping off for now. Thanks to folks who came, sorry for the rough edges, have a nice night!

>>475309909
Thanks for the event! I had fun and the slight jankiness added to it.
Also I think I figured out the message(?), just unsure of the 4th line (have multiple things it could be and the map is down so I can't go over it again to check for more hints, so I'll just post all of them. Hope that's allowed):

Moles? Blown the fuck out

>>475303694
lighting isn't the problem, your event has no direction, and your running joke of not telling people any details about what the event is only continues to hurt it and make people not care about showing up to begin with.

Mahjong is still alive right
It's not about to die as soon as I open VRC right

>>475313432
Just say your a newfag if you're a newfag, newfag.

>>475313432
I tell people plenty of details.

And yes, the lighting was fucked because of unity shittiness at an inopportune time.

>Using Poiyomi shader

Jesus, what the fuck happened to this shader? Why does it "compile"? Why does it take forever to show changes when a setting is changed?

>>475313652
Performance reasons

>>475313652
every shader has to compile, how tf do you think it can run on your GPU.

>>475314146
Anon is probably referencing when shaders went super fast in 2018-2019

>>475314759
yeah, its just the state of things getting more complex. and all the shader variants unity 2022

>>475309909
fun event, thanks for the tours !

so EU is dead and NA is debauchery. How do we fix the state of vrg bros?

>>475313652
You can tell it to not include shit you aren't using

It's actually pretty decent for performance, even if the rest of the shader is mostly bloatware

Guys does anyone have a copy of VorpX ITT? Have you tried playing Fallout New Vegas and Arma 2/3 in it? Is it worth it?

We are doing venice so I expect a high turnout! Pay attention to a overflow lobby!

>>475320726
Sure! Sim driving and flying in vr is great!

>>475320726
please do post on topic VR sim content

>>475320726
Please come to Wed Assetto

do you use prescription lens inserts

>>475321681
If you are myopic you need to get inserts. Or wear contacts.

NA /vrg/ I am fucking BEGGING you to stop going to the same maps every weekend and staying there for 5 hours straight.
Does no one remember the days of "POOOOOOORRRRTAAAAAAAAAL" and we'd all move?

Casa De Four, Shibuya Hideout, Japanese Night City. How many times are we going to spend every single night for 4+ hours in these same maps we've been going to for YEARS every single weekend?
It's not just that we go to the exact same maps weekend after weekend, the fact that everyone is content to stay the ENTIRE NIGHT in those same maps week after week, is what drives me absolutely crazy.

Is this an NA specific issue or are EUs suffering from this affliction too?

>>475321861
euros can barely get 30 people together and half of that will be only vrg adjacent rather than vrg proper so they can pick whatever random map they want

>>475319323
Someone was talking about reviving it but I haven't seen any vivecraft related posts recently which is unfortunate because I'd love to use my Vive to craft with my bros

>>475322335
I think he got filtered by making the pack
he wanted modded, but vivecraft needs fabric for performance reasons, which rules out something like 95% of the options

>>475322394
Vivecraft works with Forge still I'm pretty sure? But either way as far as I recall most mods are switching to Fabric being the gold standard mod loader nowadays anyways. Though I'm not big on Minecraft modding or anything

>>475323090
vive craft was so scuffed way back when when the vive dildo's where the only controls I had XD

>>475320726
welcome, please don't mind the vrchat tranny talk

GET OUT OF JAPANESE NIGHT CITY NOW
I AM NO LONGER ASKING

>>475321681
I'm nearsighted so badly I'm on the verge of having to get cokebottles. You can technically use your glasses in a lot of VR headsets but holy fuck it is uncomfortable and you get distortion from your lenses bumping the headset. Even worse, you can sratch the lenses of your glasses and your headset.

Inserts are worth every penny. I've used VROptician in the past. Might get some for my Quest and pico 4

>>475324452
You should try some aliexpress seller for that. I've seen listings for the quest 2, 3, and the pico 4 and they're all like $10 - $15.

>>475324532
>chinkshit prescriptions

Please do not buy cheap aliexpress chinese crap

>>475324532
My Quest 2 was $40 from eBay, parts-only, for use in an Appium testing farm. Any additional money I put into it is for the shits and giggles.

Drop 3 excuses why you don't play mahjong... NOW

>>475326291
I don't watch gay porn sorry

>>475324610
>>475324615
everything comes from china anyway
what difference does it make

>>475326503
only bottom tier slop and stolen knockoffs come from the chinks
Proper products come from proper countries

>>475326503
the difference is that 99% of aliexpress shit is the absolute worst that china can offer. it's unironically wish.com tier.
yeah everything is made in china but aliexpress offers the absolute worst of "made in china" with zero quality control which is why the prices are so low.
good luck getting a refund if/when you get your product 36 days after you purchase it and it turns out to be a piece of shit. aliexpress customer support is extremely useless and will promise you "do not worry sir I am here to help you all will be good with your return" in broken english and then won't actually give you your refund.
I've had to issue a chargeback through my bank to aliexpress specifically on a VR related purchase because they kept refusing to provide me a refund.

>>475326291
I don't like the type of people it attracts
I don't enjoy learning the winning hands
I don't enjoy the metagame

>>475326291
Above poster really summarized it with the first two reasons they gave.
I don't know what the deal is with mahjong but the mahjoomer meme is real and it attracts some seriously fucking weirdo coomer people in /vrg/ that give the entire game a horrible reputation.
It's also annoying and time consuming memorizing so many winning hands.

>>475321861
You have to beg for the people who starts the instances. There’s only a few who are insane and ego driven enough to want to start and funell people on the map they choose sometimes its the map they even made. Every week.
Begging sucks though, starting a weekly unique weekend instance event would serve you better imo. These people won’t give up what semblance of control they think they are exerting to others by picking the same map.

>>475327007
>>475326801
prescriptions are one thing that I trust from china
I've gotten prescription sunglasses from aliexpress several times before and that lens inserts were also adequate
the times I've needed to get a refund were also handled well. it's not a bad risk for something that's $10 instead of the $60+ you would need to pay from a trusted company

>>475326801
>Proper products come from proper countries

EU Assetto Corsa: European Racing club, season 11!
Race 71.

18:00 UTC 20:00 CEST, Monday 6th of May 2024.

What if we take the old original WV Beetle, remove everything which provides "comfort" and build a cockpit which barely fits a person? Formula Vee...

On the international stage, Niki Lauda, Emerson Fittipaldi, Nelson Piquet and Keke Rosberg, all Formula 1 champions, and Scott Dixon, a six time IndyCar champion, raced Formula Vees in Europe, New Zealand, or America at the beginning of their careers.

1 hours practice
12 minutes qualifiers
8 laps race.

Then we're taking the formula's and their ancestor to drive around a road track near Stuttgart. Just a normal, German day.

Assetto - can be played with wheel, controller, or steam-vr-wheel addon, it doesn't matter, we will all have fun driving together. If you just bought Asseto - grab Assetto Corsa Content Manager - a better launcher and mod manager: https://assettocorsa.club/content-manager.html To install mods: just drag and drop zip files from mega onto the Content Manager windows and click on the hamburger menu on top right. 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/

MODS: https://mega.nz/folder/DyZXAQgJ#MMZ1WGVhqqV7MIAB8i5-5A

I have never seen a Mahjoomer that was not cool as heck

>>475328452
>prescriptions are one thing that I trust from china
you are dumb as fuck for trusting a single thing from china.
and even dumber for thinking your $10 lenses made by a 6 year old chink in a sweatshop and sold on alibaba are actually quality made and comparable to a trusted and reputable but more costly option.

>>475334641
They both just stick it in a auto grinding machine, put in the settings, then cut and ship you the output. However that little chinky shit isn't going to be checking he put in the right numbers

Walkabout mini golf!
Now!
Lobby name 'vrg'
Overflow 'vrg1'

>>475309446
lookin' good yuru!

>>475321681
Yes. Feels much better than trying to wear glasses inside headset and no risk of damaging the lenses. My eyesight is bad enough that without glasses stuff in VR is blurry.

Hi, friendly reminder that next ParaPara/Wotagei training session is today at 17:00CEST/15:00UTC/11:00EDT/2h from now ( or just double check the time here: https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?p0=195&iso=20240427T17&year=2024&month=04&day=27&hour=17&min=0&sec=0&msg=ParaPara72) in VRC (Wotagei is 1h30 later at 18:30CEST/16:30/UTC/12:30EDT/2h from now).
> 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, with the recent addition of Wotagei (dance style using lightsticks) as an activity.
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?
More training on GANGURO, we'll try to memorize it enough to do it without the video.
> What's planned this time for Wotagei?
Same as last time, we've seen all fundamental wazas, so now we'll focus on reinforcing this learning and train on our first song.

As usual, be it for ParaPara or Wotagei, newcomers are always welcome and we'll adapt the session depending on who joins.

Good golfing everyone!

My thoughts on the new map was that the holes were pretty standard and okay with no gimmicks, (Except the boat one which was bad), but the map was very pretty. The music was so bad everyone turned it off.

>>475327035
>I don't like the type of people it attracts
What type of people?
>I don't enjoy learning the winning hands
You only need to learn 4 types of hand as a beginner: keeping your hand close and riichi, all simples, triplet of dragon/wind, half flush
>I don't enjoy the metagame
if you don't know the game, you don't know about its metagame

>>475326291
I am just not having fun playing it

Only took em a month.

UNDENIABLE FACT
tracker ring free is ALWAYS better than controllers with tracking rings and its about time we got the fuck rid of them

>>475351369
Well?

>>475351668
i have those and i love them my only concern is the battery wearing fast

>>475351668
>Make what's probably the best headset on the market, making the least amount of compromises
>Ruin it with absolutely garbage software filled with spyware and bloat
>Dont even make use of the more intricate features like Dynamic rendering or touchpads hidden in the thumb rests

>>475351369
I love the q3 controllers. They're so light as well and it's so much easier in shootan' to bring them up to my chin, doing reloads or whatever without bumping them into each others

>>475351860
that too it makes reloading a lot less annoying the controllers dont just forget where they are when you are not looking at them its just a straight up improvement over the old tracking ring bullshit

>>475340947
ParaPara up https://vrch.at/xh0cp6xs

>>475353182

>>475351668
Used to hate them because they were constantly losing tracking but that got fixed with a recent update. Now they are my goto controllers for anything VR except VRChat (muh finger tracking).

>>475353182
Good dancing everyone, see you in 30min for wotagei

>>475323090
it works with forge but the performance is garbage. Not good for vr.
>>475322394
>95%
all recent mods worth anything use fabric now, forge is obsolete
>>475322335
Do you or anybody else want the vanilla vivecraft server back up? I just didn't bother putting it back up after last restart since it was pretty dead anyway

>>475340947
Wotagei up! https://vrch.at/8kxunb3s

>>475362591
Good dancing everyone! Won't be there next week so see you in 2 weeks for more dance training

Too many games too play... not enough time

>>475373343
buy more, play less

>>475321681
I've just been using glasses with Quest 2 but if I ever decide to put money into VR I'd probably get a big screen beyond with lens inserts

When is Chorketown today?

>>475378413
Let the man sleep

>>475378413
An hour and a half from now. I fixed fixing a bunch of the most glaring issues (not all of the audio sources being controlled by volume sliders, not all the transport doors working, etc). With that, if I can fix the BIGGEST issue of last night but getting the light baking to actually work without unity fucking me, Chorketown 3 will be how it should've been last night.

So yeah, hour and a half.

>>475384737
do you have time to add some plants? it would cozy up the place and add a door to the outside parking lot place near the beginning. I want to enjoy the rain( i think it was raining).

>>475385026
It wasn't raining. I'll add more exterior explorability in a later update, don't have enough time to make it look half-decent from anything but the single view outdoors, looks awful from any other angle.

As for plants, i'll also add that to the list. I wanted to have more but ran out of time.

Man I can not get my Quest Pro comfortable. I've tried nearly every aftermarket vertical and horizontal strap and forehead pad and it's still just super fucking uncomfortable and distributes weight terribly.
Any advice?

>>475384737
shitty event and shitty world. please stop wasting our time.

>>475384737
where's the chorketown compilation playlist

>>475385978
You'll notice I didn't fucking make a post until SOMEONE ELSE FUCKING ASKED you fucking mongoloid.

>>475386146
There's a link in the world, don't have it atm sorry.

>>475385978
you wouldnt get it

The treatment Chorke guy is getting from people like this >>475385978 is a really good example of why fewer people bother hosting things for /vrg/ these days.

>>475385978
keeping the newfags out?

>>475384737
biggest issue for me was the voice fall off. Couldn't hear anyone more than a 10 ft away

>>475386254
Don't listen to the haters. I like the glory hole can you expand that concept? maybe like from this song https://youtu.be/snsTmi9N9Gs?list=PL5496B701E01D0CDD&t=37

rooms with opening windows exposing a stage for someone to dance

>>475386870
Yeah, i'm looking into how to change that, should hopefully be fixed by the event today.

>>475386516
Just don't host terrible ideas for events, simple as.
The joke was shit 3 years ago and it's still just as shit now.

Yeah why not host Tactical Assault VR huh HUH?!

>>475387068
Dude, eat a dick. 90% of events are LITERALLY

>Go to this world we just searched in world explore wearing a costume based on this thing I like (costume optional) where we will stand around for 20 minutes, take a group photo (10% of you will be hidden avatars in the only one we post to the thread after making you stand still for 5 minutes to take 40 photos), and then we all immediately leave to go to just b club or obsidian tower


I don't understand the guy's joke or obsession with weird lore, but it's a lot more effort and not less of a dogshit idea than most events. Be realistic, faggot.

>nooo you have to like my low effort unfinished event because its WACKY and DIFFERENT

>>475387383
I don't know what it is be only people who come were real /vrg/ the tranny cliques seams to all stay away. Whatever magic that is I like it.

>>475387068
>>475387773
What events have you hosted?

>nooo you have to take me seriously even though i'm MISSING five CHROMOSOMES

Just don't go to the event if you don't like it?

>>475387936
Don't seethe at people for not wanting to go then.

>>475388008
No one is seething at people not going, people are annoyed at the 1-2 people in the thread who do nothing but spam "shitty event low effort kill yourself it's not a real event it's NOT REAL" every time it's so much as mentioned.

>>475387882
>Only the people that come to my event are real /vrg/!
How convenient.

>>475388345
yes but unironically

>>475388345
I don't think the host has ever said that

>>475387068
as long as someone is clearly putting passion and energy into it im gonna support it

>>475389237
Everything was kino but Krials "events" aren't kino.

>>475389237
>scoop shitpost events
He told me he was going to get me a date and never delivered. Fuck that guy.

>>475388345
>Is there a direct correlation between an event exclusively being shilled in the /vrg/ thread and not being mentioned in /vrlg/ or in the discord to the purity of turnout to said event?
Yes.

>>475387383
World jam was a nice change from the usual event stuff.
And space event was multiple maps which made it last longer and was superfun too.

>>475390027
one of the OG yearly themed holiday events he's completely taken over resulting in good turnout each year, pretty custom maps whilst taking the workload off of the other kino event makers who would otherwise have to do it
in hindsight the first event he did really only ended up highlighting and enhancing the S-tan shitpost event hosted at the same time
i choose to be positive and funpilled and give credit where credit is due

Why don't european show up at drunk pavlov anymore, did they get the message that it was *drunk* pavlov or did they just get tired of getting teamkilled for being sober?

>>475398343
there were no people under the map, take your meds

>>475398248
That's everclear tho so two shots would probably be about 5 or 6 standard vodka shots? not sure how the abv math works out

>>475398583
This. Ryder was seething so hard that his rooftop korean strat was getting outskilled that he had to make up accusations about people killing him from underground to cope.

>>475398545
flop event

How is Tactical Assault VR?

>>475398586
No, it's just over two 25 ml shots (90 / 40 = 2.25). Basically what anyone would drink if they filled up a shot glass lmao.

>>475398579
I have to work during.

>>475399161
vodka is like 80proof 40 percent right
american everclear is like 190 proof 95 percent

When is chorke

>>475399161
Huh that's unintuitive, i would have thought a shot of 90% alcohol would be equivalent to two shots of 40%

>>475399613
27 ml (everclear) * 0.95 (ethanol / everclear) = 25.65 ml (ethanol)
25.65 ml (ethanol) / 0.4 (ethanol / vodka) = 64.125 ml (vodka)

Still less than three single shots lmao.

>>475399703
now

Midnight drinking with nightcore.

>>475398545
What are the implications of these towers outside the map for Chorketowne lore?

>>475399042
If you can get over the Quest friendly visuals it's a great co-op tactical shooter. Loud gunshot sound design and lethal AI make it pretty tense.

>>475405114
this guy knows too much

>>475405114
It's where THE guys live

Give one good reason why we can't go drink at Chorketowne instead of Japanese Night City.

>>475405476
Not ready for that yet
t. chorketowne guy

>>475405476
Chorketowne guy doesn't have enough clout for that

>>475399042
Cool as heck and hard as balls.

There's a fully functional physical bipod system on snipers that'll attach to any geometry (weebum related) and the IK let's you prone IRL smoothing your aiming and letting you be the dickass nigga you ever wished to be.
Enemies are very quick and accurate and requires teamwork to take down without having someone die. You have so many options to open a door from sledge hammers to door knockers to lockpicking to simply using the butt of your rifle.
My only complaint is getting RNG headshotted and not enough maps. You can get revived from bodyshots but a headshot is fatal and sends you back to camp.

>>475405114
Stay right there sir Applebee's security forces will be right with you to answer any questions you have.

The first two people, one from each timezone, have solved the Cipher.

I will admit that despite MAKING all the correct keys to the cipher, I somehow missed putting the 4th in. I didn't notice because last night someone solved it pretty quick. So congrats to the winners, who doubled down my belief that i'd included all of the keys because they solved it.

Because of my fuckup, the second closest people from each event who were only a handful of letters away because of my own incompetance will also be memorialized.

my mind games are still working....

>>475361864
modpacks not mods
I've always been on 1.7.10 and 1.12 and have no knowledge whatsoever about fabric content or its quality and could not be fucked to make a pack from scratch since I know I'd be sucked into the configs and never come out

>>475411005
Fair enough. There are some packs out there but not huge ones like there are for forge. But for an optimized vr modpack you don't want it to be too big anyway.

>>475361864
People want Vivecraft but I think everyone's already done everything they felt like doing with Vanilla already given you sort of have to make your own fun with it

>>475387068
The concept is a bit unfunny to me,the entire theme really doesn't land imo, and there isn't really even much of an avatar them but regardless I'd rather people host events even if I don't think they're of particular value than us hanging out on the same map for the 16th weekend in a row.

Invisible man...

Ahem, I have come to say that it's a fucking pain in the dick to use a male base unless you want to buy literally everything yourself and even then you're gambling on it being decent quality since you can't refund digital goods on Booth.

>>475419473
Doesn't solve any issues with premade clothing. If anything, making clothing seems like a better choice then a base.

Use boothplorer to find something that fits your base or something that's close to it. Also our asset place has a few dedicated male model fans that upload stuff

Yeah, that's how it goes, though to be desu I think it's exactly the same in that regard vanilla vs modded. I'll always have the world saved though so if anyone, myself included, gets the desire to play it again I can put it back up whenever. I'll probably update it and put it back up when the next big vanilla update comes out, or at least when the mods we used are updated for it

>>475420049
I use the Minase, so there's options at least for the base, but it doesn't solve the issue of having to guess as to whether something's going to be decent or not, since even 3BON and Ogre, the two main male clothing makers afaik, make some pretty terrible sculpts on occasion and while I'm comfortable doing texture work to fix stuff I don't like, editing the actual mesh seems like far too much of a pain in the ass.

I'm bored. What are some upcoming events/holidays to make avatars for?

>>475423787
Honestly, I think you and his map's are perfect examples of making events interactive. More maps should have puzzles in them vs just being another place to drink.

Literally just make a scientist model. You don't have to be your anime girl OC all the time, that's the beauty of VR.

Don't get why some of yall insist on using the same base all the time when you can be literally anything, anytime.

>>475433808
if you can mental gymnastics it into fitting the theme the sky's the limit. pic related, just look at this gold in the gmod workshop

Please explain to a newfag why it matters whether clothes were "made" for your base or not
Adding clothing to your avatar involves all that weight painting bullshittery and whatnot and you could just scale/tamper with it to fit your base right? Or does a piece of clothing being made specifically for your base allow you to skip the blender tedium?

>>475436652
Youve heard of elf on the shelf
Not get ready for
4channer in the corner

>>475437689
Clothes made for your base require a fuckload less work. They generally just slot on.

Clothes not made for your base have to be thrown into blender, shrunkwrap to your model, re-weighted for your rig, etc

>>475436294
Join on Jadedminx for today’s SEA explore

>>475437689
If it's made for your base, you can literally just merge the armature in Unity and it's good to go, maybe with using some of the shape keys built into your base to hide a section to prevent clipping at a joint if it's somewhat tight there. It takes zero blender work, and pretty much zero unity work.

>>475440367
and results in an overbloated monstrosity of an avatar that has had 0 effort made towards optimization.

>>475440487
>optimization
it's 2024 grandpa

>>475440487
Skill issue

>>475440653
Explain to me how you would optimize an avatar while working entirely within Unity using off the shelf Booth parts, I'm genuinely curious.

>>475440487
Sucks to suck. I can do that, fix the textures with Thry's, throw it through d4rk's optimizer on build to merge materials and meshes, and come out with a green avatar since my base doesn't have 100k+ polys. VRCFury even automates the armature merge if you'll spend the 5 minutes to make sure all the bone names align.

>>475440790
Well shit, I stand corrected. I'm still using mostly 2018-19 workflow since I had gotten it down to muscle memory so never bothered looking up anything new. I'll have to look into these.

>>475441189
Anon this is 4chan, you can't change your opinion in a civil manner, you have to dig deeper into your position and draw out the argument for 50 more posts.

>>475441189
I'm obligated to be smug and call you a faggot retard, but I will admit that it's not optimized as you can get with actual blender work doing things like removing tris from parts that are hidden under the outfit and such, but it's about 95 to 98% of the way there which is good enough that I don't feel like I'm the issue. It also can take a little bit of troubleshooting if you're not using the normal shaders since I don't know how well d4rk's handles things other then Poiyomi, and VRCfury can be wonky at times, but unlike the massive blender workflow, you can go from downloading the outfit to having it on your avatar and optimized well enough in probably 10 to 15 minutes including build time. d4rk's also does some stuff that isn't included in the VRChat performance rankings like cleaning up your FX layer, though the random one I pulled as an example didn't because I don't have any clothing toggles on this project, and merging blendshapes, the latter of which I actually don't think you could do easily by hand even with a Blender workflow. I have no clue what unholy magic d4rk has the addon doing, but it's genuinely impressive for how fool proof it is, and the ease of usage means that people should actually bother instead of blowing it off.

Jesus, I feel like that Japanese soldier who thought the war was going on into the 80's. A new complete outfit is still the better part of an afternoon for me.

Is there some magic trick for fixing gloves on your avatar or is it all just trial and error?

>>475446057
hide the skin underneath, either blendshapes, or just alpha mask

>>475446057
Delete your hands if you dont ever plan on making the gloves a toggle.

>>475446057
What the previous anons said. Tight clothing almost always is going to require you to have something that hides the body part underneath to avoid clipping.

>>475440750
D4rk avatar optimizer

>>475446057
Just bake your gloves onto your avatar's hands.

>>475443565
They use this thread. You not knowing them personally does not mean they’re not 4chan. Give them a chat some time

Area Lights don't seem to be working in my map, like, at all. Any idea why? Point lights seem fine.

There's a very loud vocal minority who barely interact with anyone from here but yell and scream everyone they don't know is spoonfed. Feel free to ignore them like everyone else does.

Thanks for the answers. I'd have to go into Blender to do most of that and I'm still too much of a newfag to into Blender just yet so I simply got rid of the gloves, for now at least.
I promise in the future I'll use Blender... I also realized while looking at Blender tutorials the other day that my version of Blender is really really old and looks nothing like the Blender I see people actually using in tutorial videos. Picrel.

Putting it in terms of hotkeys certainly helps a lot so while I'm a bit too lazy to copy and paste Phys Bones/re-parent stuff and whatnot from my current avatar I'll probably come around and do it later so that I can wear gloves in the future.
Although to actually figure my way out around Blender I'll probably download one of the popular bases and then play around replacing hair/putting on different outfits/etc at my own pace

I can't have enough of kaizokomplex/lutziekomplex worlds. Is there any similar worlds in vrchat?

If you get a quest 2 for PCVR what is the state of unfacebooking it? Do I have install meta's software on my computer to link to it?

Popescape dev looks like they had a melty and nuked the map and all their socials.
That’s a real fucking shame.

>>475407461
Substitution ciphers are the easiest to break in the world my dude

>>475455872
You will have to make Meta account to even install anything on it, you can still do some unfacebooking after you installer VD or Steamlink, neither needs Oculus client to be installed on PC. Honestly just block faceberg on your router.

>>475456773
That doesn't sound bad at all, does meta account need a phone number?

>>475457160
Just buy a PAYG sim card. Not sure how it is where you live but I can get a mobile number, perfectly legit, for 50 cents. Since it's literally only used to receive texts from sites I don't want having my real number it's actually kino.

>>475448360
You must be confusing them with someone else because I’ve never witnessed this behaviour myself.

>>475457160
No but you will need to add phone or credit card number to enable developer mode.

When I see people with Avatars that let others play with their ears I assume those are just colliders ? Or are those Grab and Pose ?

>>475459472
Can be both. Physbones with colliders and then you just check the grab and pose tickboxes.

>>475456505
Yeah, I didn't intend for it to be an impossible cipher, or to take that long. I just didn't mean to not include one of the four keys.

>>475459926
Okay I figured as much
My avatar actually already had grab and pose enabled all this time and I had no idea
Do I set it to "Other" with Self and Others enabled to allow others to interact with them or does "True" automatically allow other people to interact with your bones by default ?

>>475456773
>Honestly just block faceberg on your router.

I've read the quest 2 will connect to any available wifi and phone home, so if it's ever on or near an unsecured network it doesn't matter. It'll also keep gigabytes of telemetry until it reaches the occasion

It's still plain Android underneath the Zucc UI, it will only connect to networks you connected to before.

Is there any way to create separate folders for avatars like you can for worlds?

>>475464903

my last 2 wins (back to back) in contractors showdown my teams had 5 kills combined.
gear might be too strong (as is knowing a good jump location)
we should still have to have at least 1 tense fight if we hide like pussies all game but both wins we walked into another squad that was woefully under geared compared to us.

Cycling is overrated, I think there should be VR jogging

SEA world Explore https://vrch.at/upxc47ta

>>475469630
Most players are kids that have no idea what they're doing or plain old retards that just pick gun that looks cool instead of optimal. Any semi-competent squad will wipe the lobby and then have showdown with one or two remaining squads that aren't entirely braindead. Even in beta we rarely ranked anywhere below 3rd place.

>>475471645
Oh so default booths are okay now?

>>475472267
yea i kept waiting to run into the 1 other squad that know's what's up but i guess we got lucky a couple matches in a row
I think it would help if the air strike did dmg thru buildings or something (rad grenades are neat) since it's kinda obvious where the storm/ring is gonna end and you can just post up in a house/tower whatever

>>475472502
That surely is a mimic

>>475472456
are you the same anon as >>475433871
if so you really need to work on your bait game, this is too obvious

So it turns out my entire map's light baking was only the small directional lighting, NONE of the area lights or point lights are actually working, and because it didn't ACTUALLY bake the point lights, the lights were all realtime. So the "Fix" I did between friday and saturday of re-baking was just visually different because of the reflection probes working.

No fucking idea why the light baking is broken, all the lights are set to baked, all the meshes are set to static and global illumination ticked. No wonder it still ran badly, the lights were still TECHNICALLY realtime despite me specifically setting them to baked.

>>475473227

Is there something like House of the Dead for VR? I want some kind of shooting gallery game with weapon sights that work with the shitty VR resolution. Pistol whip is almost what I am looking for but the iron sights are terrible to use.

>>475502981
I think you can literally play house of the dead with emuvr

>>475502981
Kinda weird how there are no VRC maps like this. Should be doable with Udon.

>>475504303
Feels like there are a lot of maps and/or prefabs that should easily exist in VRChat but don't.
For example, there is still no poker prefab, and there's only like one japanese world with poker that barely works and hasn't been updated in years.
I think it's cause Udon is shit and VRChat firing the main guy behind Udon 2 isn't helping things.

>>475504303
blegh stop supporting the udon nightmare

>>475505002
>>475505009
It's because maps like that don't make any money. You need something that makes ppl spend long times in the world. Slop like idle home is perfect for this.

>>475505678
Who the fuck is out here spending money on maps they visit? What?

>>475505992
Are you a newfag? Every popular world is monetized and making the creator(s) a living.

>>475504303
>Weird how there are no VRC maps like this
The insane network delay would make it a pain in the ass, even if it wouldn't matter all that much for this game. Why do you think there's almost no realtime Udon game maps? It's all turn-based stuff, board games, or time trials that only care about making singleplayer scores and then comparing them, like Udon Ball. And maaybe the occasional Murder/Among Us, and Murder is miserable to play for the lag reasons.

>>475521964
Yeah but people tend to not really make those. If it's not social it's quickly forgotten about. I guess it might work if they compare high scores at the end? Seems like a fun project if nothing else

wtf
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1NkXr6vBjk
when i heard the name i assumed theyre making a sequel but now that im looking at the trailer it does look like the same levels only expanded and with mores stuff

i'd say wait for the remake then it looks like all the good stuff of the original only probably longer and better

the gameplay look is basically exactly what they show in the trailer you jump between one of several time+place levels and use items from one to solve puzzles in another. only atleast the original game is not really a shooter, there's like 3-4 very easy shooting sequences with a pistol/bow and thats it

>>475529698
Guess I'll just wait for that then, still have some other stuff I need to finish anyways.

Lost hard waiting on deckard so I caved and got a quest 2 active pack, it was cheaper than just the quest for some reason. Let me know if $196 is a bad price

Anyway I want to do wireless PCVR with the quest 2, and not give the quest 2 internet access. My PC only has one LAN adapter, so I need an additional lan adapter, and a wireless router right? What should I buy?

I'm aware it needs internet access for setup. Steamlink or virtual desktop needs to be installed on the quest to use those right? I'll figure out how to keep those updated later.

only retards buy a quest btw

Is there any site that archives vrchat worlds in case it gets deleted/privated? if there is a way to backup worlds locally I would like to know too.

>>475564852

>>475569068
It annoys me that valve is supposedly waiting for some scarce cutting edge display tech that'll be gobbled up by the huge corporations, when there's so many improvements they can do with contemporary displays. The index is ancient and the value proposition got mogged when the quest 2 launched in 2020. It's been way too expensive for years just for better tracking over the quest 2 and it's not wireless. They needed to ship a wireless headset with inside out tracking, wider FOV, resolution good enough for desktop use, and eye tracking. I don't give two fucks about black levels and HDR right now.

i dont want to use a wireless headset, the cable isnt an issue, battery is an issue however

PLAY MAHJONGGGG

>>475569329
Used market for quest pro is pretty good value if you can get it for 500-600 USD its a good deal

Speaking of the Quest Pro, if I want a standalone headset for travel/other times I don't have my PC, how gimped is it compared to the Quest 3? Obviously the face tracking and stuff would be cool to have for PCVR, but if it's on it's way to being outmoded, it seems like it would be a waste of money.

Which VR Headset do I get have I have a good computer? I want one that I could plug into my graphics card.

It's basically an overclocked Quest 2 as far as standalone performance goes if that's what you're asking.

>>475572550
Turn out for Poker feels way less consistent then golf, but they claim to have fixed the voice issues at least.

'Leaks' last year said it was 2024 release then a delayed 2024 release. Since the start of the year the only thing I've seen is the XR2+ Gen 2 announcement which had Samsung/Google as partners. If the headset was more than a year away they'd probably be partners for the next chip instead so late 2024 or early 2025 does sound plausible for this headset.
I think HTC have a similar Apple Vision Pro competitor in the works too but I don't keep up with them.

Expected host here! What do you guys wanna do today? They fixed the voice in poker. Golf's always fun. What do you think?

Now for some reason when I bake my reflection probes it makes everything way too shiny and like, the color is bleached, even on materials that aren't particularily shiny and aren't metallic. Fun issues.

Fixed the voice?

>>475576117
I only show up for poger so that.

mahjonh, come gweilo

>>475570881
its really not so bad to put a spare battery in your pocket or in the eoz chest strap if youre a kinky dude and like fbt with chest tracking.

i have 2 35000mah batteries and i can run my quest pro literally forever by swapping them back and forth.

>>475571538
Half the people who show up to Mahjong don't even play Mahjong

>>475571538
how about you update the map first?
Those tires were a Feb joke.

>>475579608
This is why I don't ever show up to Mahjong
That and the fact that everyone that goes to Mahjong is a coomer who doesn't even try to hide it

>>475575201
It's pretty insane how powerful those little chips are

>>475579608
>>475579693
Distinguish the difference between coomer mahjong tilegun and comfy mahjong, I've been showing up for the comfy one for years, works on my machine

>>475580034
Comfy Mahjong happens on Monday though?

>>475580034
Surely you've looked in a mirror by now

>>475580263
>Comfy Mahjong happens on Monday though?

>>475581796
she's right you know

>>475582251
lol
lmao even

>>475580364
Cope all you want friend, just saying you see a 30 person instance of "mahjong" don't be stunned it isn't that. Go to the smaller ones.

>>475582474
The smaller ones are infinitely worse. You're the ERPing closeted gays you constantly claim the euros to be.

>>475580034
Are you still seething that Tilegun guy wouldn't give you his prefab like a nigger seething the government isn't giving him enough gibs?

>>475582778
>>475583125
Ah so it's more mad Euros then? Look, you guys really need to stop letting the big NA chads live rent free in your head you know, it's not healthy.
Alright I'm going to go back to Mahjong, feel free to seethe while I'm gone.
Toodles~

>>475576117
Golf sounds good to me.

>>475583304
You, and every other "lewd"nigger shitting up /vrg/ are a plague. I'd even take Dal's fat nigger ass back if it meant we'd be rid of you fags.

the lewd wouldn't even be an issue if they could stay in their lane with it

>>475548032
thanks for coming frens. More Shuumatsu Train and Spice Wolv on Wednesday.

By the way, was the performance bad for anybody in the new theater? I've heard a few instances of people getting bad performance but have not confirmed. I may need to re optimize some things

Ok we'll try some poker. PokerStarsVr or Vegas Infinite starting now!!
Lobby name: TitaniumRyder's game
Pass: 1984

>>475588094
lets gooooo

>>475588094
Its confirmed they fixed the audio in game by the way

Is it true Ryder's GF was getting passed around by Mahjongchads last Friday?

Can you guys spoonfeed me a router tier list? Probably something that needs to be in the OP too

Asus RT-AX55 is recommended a lot but I want to cheap out for the RT-AX1800S. Aside from a weaker processor it might not have bss coloring and I wonder if I should care. I think it will handle a whopping one headset connected to it but coloring sounds like it reduces latency.

hello 4chan!

>disembodied hands only
You’re the one who do not want VR wannabee. Full body immersion or your Vr game is shit.

>>475590114
now put the Ryan Gosling head on it

>>475590336
half the vr games that use full arms they look wrong anyway

It's time /vrg/. I like off topic posts and they're not too bad. like the civil war cartridge thing or whatver.
I love you! I really do love you all!

>>475590048

I only now thought to ask but could I do this and just replace the Body Mesh on what I'm currently working on in Unity with the new, handless one from Blender? That would save a lot of work

anyone want to do some late night dancing in publics? im 10 point tracking and can do a lot of power moves

>>475593271
>power moves
Sorry, I only do slow pair/duo dances.
