/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #1631

i always see FRIK reccomended for fo4vr but its so much worse than VRIK for skyrim its not even funny
i have more fun with floating hands gameplay than i do with that addon installed

You wake up in a beige room with bright florescent lights on the ceiling. The ground is a dingy department store carpet and the walls are an old, peeling wallpaper. You look around but only get a feeling of uneasiness.
Well of course, you where just nervous for the 39th Part of /DinnerCircle/! Because around the corner you hear your VR friends idly discussing what ever, as they wait for more hungry participants. On que you pull out your Pop-Tart of your choosing and maybe a glass of milk. You can hear the wrinkling of the polypropylene aluminum film through the others headsets as you dig into your sugar pastry. The discussion continues, interrupted only by occasional chewing of the sweetened rectangle. Vaporwave plays on the video player as a reminder of the old times. Checking the thread reveals the others have posted their headsets with their choice of Pop-Tart. A heated argument starts on what is the best confectionery pocket. Toasted, frozen, dipped into coffee, irradiated, the others tell you that their way is the best. A "Toaster Strudel" is posted in the thread, but no one admits to uploading it around the table. This day is Saturday, the 28th, 2024 at 7pm ET, in VRChat.

trying out the new theater today. As you may have already observed, the new na anime theaters are sometimes kind of experimental so if it's bad we'll relocate

Chat is this real?

Going to have another Minecraft get-together on https://crawler.vrg.party/ at 9PM~ EST on Friday if anyone wants to do some more exploration. I'm hoping that we can check out more of the Nether and a couple more Dungeons Arise locations.

>MGS3 remake (Delta) will be in Unreal Engine
>therefore, uevr will be usable to turn it into a VR game
LET'S
FUCKING
GOOOOOO

>>496017551
I am weak I got filtered by how bright it was.

>>496020748
the sun sets if you stay in the world for a while

You guys still interested in playing on Friday? what VRC game/s would guys like to play?? If its small in capacity let me know before hand please.

>>496017551
thanks for coming, see you on sunday for more nagi no asukara and the last episode of loserheroine.
>>496020748
Sorry about the brightness, you're not the only one who didn't like that. Next time I'll have a toggleable roof or something that blocks the sunlight for brightnesslets. The sun sets in the world after about 45 minutes

>>496023482
We could try Island survival, I always wanted to play that one.
if not we have always the most common options which are: murder, among us (we played this one already), prison escape, blackout or ghost.

>>496016265
>send out TDA Miku to do battle against gacha Miku
Based.

>>496023482
yes

if I buy a volvo headset within the next couple months will it last some years, or be obsoleted by this time next year?

>>496023482
Still interested and fine with pretty much whatever

>>496023482

>>496015576 (OP)
such false advertising, the 128gb version not the 512gb is $500

>>496035068
they just changed that. 128 and 256 versions of the q3 are gone and the 512 is now $500

>>496035224

>>496035592
the store probably hasnt updated yet

If I can readily niggerrig index audio on the quest 3, and not need to tape a 160 CAD puck to the top of it, I'll consider buying it

>>496033382
Nobody knows what valve is going to do next year or when they're going to announce a new headset. However, the rest of the industry seems to prefer punching itself in the dick instead of making higher quality products, and we know lighthouse tracking is a local maximum that will remain superior to all other currently known forms of tracking.

No one cares Metro is coming out soon on all VR platforms?
https://youtu.be/F0VvFvCo6FQ?si=utEEYsCYixLrBPzr

>>496040234
Oh, I care a lot. I'll definitely be playing this and will probably play through the old games again before it comes out.

>>496040234
im glad its a floaty hand game
any time a shooter has full body it always looks janky

>>496042517
Full body without full body tracking always sucks. Based though. Hope it's more than a handful of levels.

I want to erp in VRchat, getting 3s, what else will I want/need?

>>496049008
Get pico 4, 2 or 3 pico motion trackers and minions router

>>496049008
If top a good ol onahip from japan. If bottom, edge 2 or hush

>>496049008
General standard is FBT + some sex toys.
Best FBT is 3 htc trackers (not ultimates, the 3.0s) + 2 lighthouses.
Probably best entry FBT is probably pico trackers but you need a pico headset.

>>496040234
I care ..

>>496040234
The accents are really grating on me

>>496050917
EU pavlov single player experience.

>>496050461
For the price of quest and trackers, you could buy new pico 4 ultimate, pico trackers, good router, a few power banks, sex toys and still have money left over. And you dont need to faff around with calibration, it just works using standard pico connect.

>>496051296
This is probably the cheapest way to get into "Immersive social VR"

>>496040234
I care, lost my shit when it was announced.

Found a few vr eepers

>>496053020
Did you find it?

I’m considering upgrade paths from my Quest 2 and had some questions about the Vive Focus Vision.

First, I understand the optical stack is basically the same as the Pro 2, how is it? Fresnel lenses are kinda lame but was curious as to the quality, sweet spot and whether the 2k screens bump up the quality enough to make it worth while.

Secondly, on the subject of screens I’m worried about whether my graphics card will be sufficient. Currently I have a 3080ti which does ok, but I worry the increase in screen resolution is going to throttle my 12Gb of VRAM. There’s no point dropping a grand on a headset if I’m going to end up dialling down the resolution anyway.

So this is why they're draining 1 billion USD every month in their "Reality Lab"
https://youtu.be/mpKKcqWnTus

If they only ever focused on the Quest line up and improvement they'd turn a profit for sure.

>hey we got these cool new glasses
>oh no, you can't buy them. only the beautiful people get them.
>you'll be able to get cool glasses 1.0 in 2 years maybe if we feel like it
wtf is it so hard to make these things? all the other AR glasses seem kinda ass. Xreal/Vision etc

>>496060049
Have you seen the components in there? How the fuck do you mass produce this.
And those silicon carbide lenses with projector seems like something straight out of sci-fi.
I watched the demo and the UI looks shitty, low-res and laggy and it needs a wireless brick to do computing but this is the worst it's every gonna get.
I can see it being a classic pair of glass you pair with your phone that does all the computing and beam it back in the future.

>>496060476
I'd really like to try those lenses just for appreciating the technology. Would be neat if they eventually figure out how to produce that shit for a reasonable price.

>>496060476
well ok yea, when i said is it so hard to make these things obviously it's very difficult to make them.
I just want them to figure it out already. I shouldn't have to reach into my pocket and use my phone to see a message that says
>k
also i need to be able to watch youtube bigscreen while i drive.
before you worry i do this all the time in american truck sim with ovr toolkit and i have a very low crash rate

>>496060476
Even old CRT's could be affordable with mass production. These glasses can to, but investing all this money when you are not sure there is a market is very dangerous. Better to wait until you don't need a fat ass brick, and can just pair them to your phone.

>>496060626
>also i need to be able to watch youtube bigscreen while i drive.
>before you worry i do this all the time in american truck sim with ovr toolkit and i have a very low crash rate
I thought you were a gamer. You should play american truck sim in VR while driving.
Stop slacking!

>AR overlays for real driving

I need to stop being a wuss and turn that overlay off. It ruins muh immersion.

>>496060915
wasn't your fault. i blame the engineers that made such a stupid offramp

>>496060476
Looks like a clear case of fishing for corrections. This is when someone deliberately posts something blatantly wrong, just to bait others into correcting them and making their argument for them. It’s a lazy tactic that wastes everyone’s time and derails the conversation. Instead of contributing to a genuine discussion, you're manipulating people into doing the legwork for you.

>>496061046
umm. or i was just shitposting it really isn't that serious. I didn't have ulterior motives

>>496061046
Sorry mate I just like tech and wanted to talk about it. I don't care about what kind of psychological manipulation they teach you in your gender studies programs and how that relates to my post but I'm sorry it bothered you enough that my post reminded you of it.

Yeah I was thinking about it but I just see it like it was my smartphone with a truck GPS app or something like uber drivers.

if you have the cabin dlc i think, you can get a cellphone on a little suction cup mount.

What do we think of the new meta?

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING VRG

>>496059727
Vive Pro 2 anon here. The clarity in the middle is amazing, horizontal fov is very good. Vertical not as much. Binocular overlap could be also better but its fine. Edge tomedge clarity drops down quickly, and to get the best results I use a very thin face foam. Getting away from the lens and fov falls dramatically, along with off center clarity. There is some ghosting on high contrast scenes, but only noticable in pure black scenes with bright white text.

3080 with 12 gigs is good enough pure performance wise, but due to 12 gigs of vram youll have to reduce render resolution in some newer games, especially UE5 games.

>>496067125

EU anime tonight at 7PM UTC+1. There's no Sengoku Youko this week so we're watching Spice and Wolf ep25 (final) Shikanoko ep12 (final) and Digimon Adventure: Childrens War Game to fill the gap and complete the trilogy of Mamoru Hosoda making the same damn movie every time

What's the strat for getting air link to look even passable?

>>496094364
use steamlink, virtual desktop and minions router or buy a real VR headset

>>496040234
>standaloneslop
i sleep

>>496094364
You use virtual desktop instead of airlink, a decent router with preferably at least wifi 6, and use h.264+, hevc 10 bit, or av1 10 bit codec depending on gpu and headset as well as intended purpose. All are worth experimenting with depending on your gpu and router. Virtual desktop will take some tweaking but it looks objectively better when tweaked well in every possible scenario to the alternatives. Steamlink and airlink are both dogshit and come with a litany of issues ranging from worse artifact to weird tunnel vision effects and the handful of benefits like marginally low latency are not worth the tradeoffs. Among other things are doing basic research to set your wireless to an ideal channel to avoid too much over saturation in the area and having your router as close as possible if not outright having a secondary dedicated router for the headset.

>>496086426
Nice, going to actually practice with the cars a bit this time instead of jumping straight into it.

>>496094364
In the meta quest link app set the resolution to the max
In the occulus debug tool:
Distortion Curvature High
Sliced Encoding On
Encode resolution width put 6000 (It'll clamp down to 4200 something but doesn't matter)
Dynamic Bitrate off
Encode Bitrate whatever your router can handle. I use 250.
Link sharpening on

Should give you about the same visual quality as VD on Ultra setting. If you swap to h264 and reduce the bitrate a little bit you get lowest latency wifi play which works well for fast paced shit like pavlov.

>>496040234
Can't wait to have a Bastard jam in my hands while running from a pack of lurkers. I wonder what stations they'll include, some from the books would be nice, but I wouldn't mind revisiting places from earlier games.

>>496095476
what tweaks are recommended for VD?

>>496094931
>>496095476
Is airlink actually just stuck looking like that? that's nuts. I know everyone says VD is a must-have but I figured they were being dramatic. I was playing Lone Echo, and that game is neat, but I felt like I was looking at a 3D jpeg the whole time. Like, the game's graphics settings wouldn't even matter, it was that blurry. For the hour I played, I missed my CV1.
Is there router recs in the pastebin?
>>496095579
Not sure if the esteemed 1660 super and wifi 5 dedicated router is enough for that but I'll try.

>spend 2 hours tweaking graphics because i wanna do truckin
>edit config files, openxr toolkit, vr headset settings
>manage to barely get it to run with 72fps while not looking dogshit

i'm so tired that an intern implemented VR in 2013 at SCS and nobody touched it since

>>496098569
In my experience I dropped american truck sim because I couldn't get it to run in VR very well.Euro truck sim gets more love and more updates.

>>496098839
I mean I dropped it in favor of EU truck sim

>>496098839
I'll try ETS again as well, it too ran abysmally for me even though I have a 3090
nowadays both games get the same updates regularly from what I've seen

>Is there router recs in the pastebin?
There are way too many options and prices vary a lot, the meme Minions router is apparently pretty good if you want 6E.
I've had pretty good luck with a $20 Linksys LN1301 running DD-WRT, but not sure how easy those are to get now.
>Is airlink actually just stuck looking like that?
The tweaks that one anon recommended should help a lot, but I think it's the worst option for wireless streaming.

>>496105581
Nice map

>>496112218
whos the father?

>>496112689
That's the twintail!

>>496097346
There are a lot of settings to play with but set the vr graphics quality to match your gpu, disable synch spacewarp, video buffering on, snapdragon off depending on the headset, increase color vibrance on, I usually leave sharpening around 72, framerate 90, vr bitrate is dependent on your router but in a perfect world max out. Codec like I said you need to play with but I find h.264+ with maxed out bitrate to be the lowest artifacting for vrc. Adaptive quantization on. Personally I leave automatic bitrate off and manually set it to the highest I know my router generally handles without screen tearing because I find leaving it to auto will usually set it conservatively. I'm sure there are other things I'm not remembering but that's the majority.

>>496097726
1660 super is barely enough to run vr even without the load of encoding for wireless which puts additional stress on the system. A quest 3 eats my 3090 alive depending on settings and I'd imagine even a quest 2 would struggle to be driven by a 1660 super. For regular vr games I'd or vrc I personally think the best card for the money right now is probably a 4070ti super though you can get away with a 3070 or used 3080 if you have to though in a perfect world aiming for any card with faster than 192 bit bus speed (the standard for 70 series nvidia cards) is deal lest you get some bottlenecks though this is less a problem until you get to newer cards. For routers most wifi 6e routers will probably be best in slot. Personally I've been using just a wifi 6 E8450 mostly because it was the first decent wifi 6 router that could run open wrt but I'm less familiar with the newer 6e options since I do fine without it.

>highest bitrate router can handle
is this just based on the speed of your connection shown in the top of the VD menu? mine seems to hover between 1.7k and 2.4k, not sure why it switches. sometimes its connected to wifi 5Ghz, sometimes 6Ghz, not sure how to solidify that.

>>496113687
you want to look at the network latency and want it to be around 3-5ms stable
if it spikes to 15+ too often it means your router can't really handle it

Has anyone ever used their VR headsets for more advanced applications, like productivity, simulations, or computing tasks, instead of just for gaming?

>>496118809
I think the AVP is more suited to those than any consumer headset. I've edited a few videos with my hmd, didn't really improve anything.

Yeah VRC is dying. all those kids they brought in to inflate the numbers don't buy VRC+ or create OC worlds. That's what they get for pushing all the creative people out of VRC and implementing the failure of EAC.

Easiest fix is using different names for the 5Ghz and 6Ghz networks so you know which one you're actually connected to.

>>496118809
Some people do yeah, but even the higher resolution headsets aren't really ideal for that sort of thing.
I don't think virtual monitors are that useful since I already have enough real monitors, but maybe a super high resolution headset would change my mind.

>>496111814
That's the one I was trying to remember, I think you suggested it to me in a previous thread. I have been scouring the net but I cannot find that in canada.
>>496112979
I know it's not enough but I kept getting sniped out of the good 3080 deals and now I've gotta save for a car so the 4070tis isn't gonna be in the budget for several months. By that time there might be a 5070 or even an AMD card worth getting.

>>496128389
my router just has one network with multiple bands, and automatically connects you to the band that your device can use best

I saw people getting hype for meta allowing access to the camera api, what are the benefits of this though? Might we finally have fbt solutions that don’t require calibration to match the headsets SLAM mapping? It would be nice to not have to glue a tracker to my quest

>>496121748
Hardly anyone really cares about EAC
>VRC economy was a failure
This was the real killing blow. Can't keep that VC money flowing in as easily if your pitch to monetize the game has already flopped once.
VRC has one of the most dedicated userbases a game can have with disposable income close to simulation autist levels and multiple pathways to monetize in the future. Only pure incompetence or gross mismanagement could run that into the ground.

>>496129516
The eternal gpu race is profound suffering. There some amd cards worth getting for vr I believe that are more budget friendly though usually any of their newer offerings have poor performance driver issues as well as instability with vr in general. Occasionally if you're lucky you can snipe a decent brand 3090 used on amazon or ebay for 600-700usd though you have to hunt for it.

Reminder that Sleepy Walkabout Mini Golf is in about 5.5 hours (11:30PM ET), hope to see you there.

>>496129516
>I cannot find that in canada
It's just a cheap one that happened to work for me. Any decent WiFi 6 router should let you run higher bitrate than 5. 6E helps if you're having issues with interference.

>>496113687
>I have a 3060 Ti, do i choose the medium or high setting
I use medium on a 3070 and if there's enough overhead at an acceptable framerate or latency try it on high.

>>496097726
I ran a 1660 SUPER and i forget which amd 3xxx series when i first got here and honestly it was liveable in smaller instances and for most games until i could afford my 3080 12gb/5800x3d combo. the venerable 1660 stays winning. youre not gonna be running full res but you can get "acceptable" quality with 'acceptable' fps until you can afford a better setup

>>496142240
I didn't rip it. I tried it on in the avatar museum. I already bought Grus and an outfit.

>>496142894
I already bought Grus and Lapwing. I want to get a new avatar. Why do you people keep trying to drag me back?

this nigga obviously never plays in public worlds
I spent the last 200+ hours playing nothing but public instances and shit is fun af, tons of new people to meet every time and fun relationships I am having.
this shit is FAR from dying

Now that i have my new headset i decided to (destructively) take this apart because why not.
It is a brick that is worth less than an actual brick.
And man holy shit it's disgusting imma take better care of my headsets now.

>>496146780
I agree. I like people watching in public worlds.

LAP WING GANG RISE UP

Sorry, Cygnet forever

>>496147656
>>496146780
I go to public worlds once a week. It feels pointless when there's a sea of different faces every time. I can tolerate cringe and tasteless behavior and avatars to find the gems sometimes litered in publics but surfing through friends of friends of friends instances have a higher chance of finding someone cool and chill.

Not to mention my preference is building friendships over a few whom I can enjoy life with.

Tell me anon, why do you like people watching? Genuinely curious

Fresnel lenses are really of a bygone era now. As lens tech improves, headsets can get smaller as seen with the pancake lenses

Looking at it all laid out like this kinda ruined the magic of the headset.
Like google cardboard feels more advanced than this.
And it's more like 90% empty space but actually holy shit.
Honestly it's not even a wonder how random startups can develop a steamvr headset.
Fuck this actual brick of a headset.

>>496156221
Palmer Luckey's original idea for the Rift came around because he realized off-the-shelf displays, IMUs, and lenses were finally good enough to build a consumer-grade headset. Anything using custom parts is $5000+ just like it was was the 90's.

>>496156221
It's a vive, straight out of 2016. What did you expect?

>>496157857
the rift dk2 (which I have in a box somewhere still) is indeed just a samsung phone. 2014 was 10 years ago...

>>496131279
Minigolf starting now, lobby code is vrg

>>496156221
its funny because my phone from 2016 had a better ppd than my vive. However the FOV and optics where basically that of a cardboard. Not to mention tracking, durability, reliability, comfort ect where just better with the vive. I agree that the bigmeme SHOULD have been here 8 years ago, but it was only recently when pancake+uoled where developed enough to be cheap enough to be put into an expensive headset. If you were retardly looking for something magical, you'll have to wait to get the orion AR glasses and take those apart.

Need to see this from Tundras PoV before I decide if this is awsome or not.

it's insane how during the entire game's lifecycle, the biggest update was the 2 new block types, and aside from that it's just the janitor upping the unity version number and releasing shitty beatmap packs that normies eat up because they are too scared (yes) to mod the game
atleast there are solutions now to stop it from updating

>>496199130
that game is unplayable on quest pro via steamlink or virtual desktop btw

>>496199703
Anything not VRC is unplayable over wifi.

>>496200665
then I need a cable that will work with my quest pro. Currently I am doing everything via 6E wifi (TP-Link Archer AXE75).
Theoretical top speed is supposed to be 10 gbps, and I am in the same room, so I think I hit those speeds.
Is there a cable that can give me that?

>>496201563
Cable don't really matter for latency I think.

>>496199703
thats because everyone is playing on standalone so nobody noticed the problem

>>496204580
>standalone
ew... don't they wanna mod it or something?

>>496204580
pretty sure there's a lot of top players in scoresaber playing the pc version on quest 2 via cable

Standalone BS supports modding, it's arguably even easier now.

Tonight at 18:00 GMT, Q3A deathmatch again. To play in VR you will need Quest or Pico and install Q3A port from Sidequest. Only retail Q3A PAKs are needed, no Team Arena.

Server is in Frankfurt, change your autoexec.cfg:
seta server1 "45.147.228.101:27960"
seta password "1488"
And bind "weapon 1" to something for gauntlet duels.

Rotation is QL. If you don't want to wait for server you can download it here:

>But I want to be an anime grill in VR!
There's old pack of anime models you can use, grab it here if you want to chii, just drop the files in baseq3 directory:
https://files.catbox.moe/6az4wd.7z

We'll use Mumble for voice, voice.vrg.party as usual, sideload Mumla to your HMD and DISABLE UDP and enable background audio in Quest experimental settings.

Frag compilations:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N6iTBCiDGk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0d2rvwwLRA

If you still have Mumble problems:
Download this sketchy APK and sideload it: https://github.com/threethan/QuestAudioPatcher
Follow the tutorial, select Mumla, allow the QAP to uninstall Mumla, then allow the it to install the patched Mumla.

I upgraded from my CV1 because the screen was dying (it was jittering back and forth, may be a cable issue), to a pico 4, and sadly it really limits how well I can play due to the bulkier controllers, which take 2 batteries each, and it's really noticeable on harder maps

Come to terms with the fact that you want to have an romantic, meaningful relationship with someone. You seem open minded enough to consider mentally ill people who pretend they are woman, but are men. You are already halfway there anyways.

Valid point, however, I already tried and I found absolutely 0 romantic joy and quite honestly some disgust with being wwith someone who is fully male.
It's just fucking gay....

I can stretch my copium to trans girls since they seem to exclusively use female avatars as well but as soon as I see dick on someone else than me it's just fucking over.

>quest uses cameras for tracking instead of reliable methods and is designed to be standalone
>other headsets are boutique models, cost a fortune, and are severely lacking in features
is there a pcvr bundle that is actually good for people with no headset or other equipment currently aside from a gaming PC? or should I get the cheapest refurbished/used headset I can find and then wait for something better to come onto the market? I am beginning to think I picked a really bad time to be interested in trying out vr

>>496240745
>>index is 20 years old and wired and uses 480p displays and still priced at 1000 dollars for some reason
whole kit is $1k
hmd alone is $500 and most other steamvr headsets fail to hit that pricepoint still

>>496240432
Why's that? my Wifi 6e connection shows 2401mbps in VD.

>>496241152
Virtual Desktop maximum video bitrate is 500mbps

>>496240745
The index displays are still good, orders of magnitude over the shit we used in 2019. Best for the price range still
>quest uses cameras for tracking instead of reliable methods and is designed to be standalone
It's not the tracking that's the issue, as far as I know camera tracking has gotten pretty good. It's the unavoidable latency when you use it to play actual vr games on your pc. The quest shills don't want you to remember this.
I have to replace my headset soon, I wish there was a better option than the index that doesn't cost a million dollars but there isn't

>>496241307
oh. hrrmmm...
ok. maybe i'll settle for a 2.5G adapter then. i'm still also doing this for streaming media to wireless devices in my home. so more bandwidth is still better.

>>496241152
Unless you have a 2.5gbs nic in your PC connected to a 2.5gbs switch it doesn't matter because you're running everything at 1gbs. Your shit is only as fast as your slowest link

>>496241637
that's why i'm buying an NIC.
my router has a 10g port. my cable is 10g cat6e.
router is wifi 6e.

>>496241479
the latency only occurs when playing wireless though RIGHT?

>>496242175
There's still latency when using a cable with the Quest 2/3 because the cable doesn't actually do display, it sends data as a compressed stream, it's slightly less latency than wireless but still more latency than if it was just a displayport cable.

>>496241856
do check that your 10g port supports 2.5g because not all do. Some 10g ports only have 10g/1g and dont support 2.5g and 5g

>>496242175
Unfortunately it is not the case. seems like even with the best available hardware and connections and internet, the best you can hope for with the link cable is about 20ms (I could be wrong.) I almost made the mistake of just saying fuck it and getting a quest before I learned about this

>>496241479
I suppose a followup question is, just how bad and limited are the quest models when using them standalone? does the camera tracking work reliably if you have a cluttered space and not a rich persons' dedicated vr room? can it actually run games, or is it only good enough for rhythm games and tech demo slop?

OH NO 40ms OF LATENCY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SAVE ME GABENMAN LITERALLY UNUSABLE

>>496243410
A cluttered space actually helps the tracking by providing lots of unique anchor points.
It's people who want to play in a completely empty room in total darkness like a goblin that will have problems. Even then you can still buy an IR lamp/floodlight which will let you play in the dark.

>>496243242
I did, thanks for the tip :)

I've even been using slimes because at least they're consistently bad instead of me thinking I'll actually be able to dance but nope interference or reflection somewhere today heck me

>>496243947
Yes, unironically you shill. Any disparity between my eye hand coordination throws me off. Also I play rhythm games
>just use the latency compensation featu-
no. Those are unreliable and they don't fix the visual issues, only helps with the audio cues.

>>496245318
I used to have 16ms latency offset in games and then switched to Q3 via cable and had to reset it back to 0 for it to feel right. Dunno what magic they've got in the meta link software but it's way better than everything else latency wise.

>>496241479
>The index displays are still good
>Best for the price range still
Why the fuck are you lying?
They are NOT still good. $1,000 for 1440x1600 is NOT good.
Saying it's better than what came before it doesn't mean shit because it's over 5 years old now and lots of better displays have come after it.

the people who seethe about Q3 users and refuse to play games with them seem like fox and grapes tards who are salty they spent more money on an inferior headset

Index is the best headset, cry about it pixel nerds

I imagine that for people who just play VRChat (Most people) it's not an issue, but this ruined rhythm games for me which happen to be half of what I play. I hope that wigig 3 exists at some point.

No single company on the market offers an entry headset for PCVR that can beat the Index.

Every other headset is judged based on the Index's capabilities. If you can't beat the index on multiple features, your headset is DOA.

The only alternatives are the flagship standalone headsets or upgrades that require you to buy the Index first to have all the necessary hardware.

>>496248836
Literally every single rhytm game worth playing has standalone version that is identical to PC including the custom songs.

>>496248871
>No single company on the market offers an entry headset for PCVR that can beat the Index.
uh
you seem to have forgotten about the quest 3
LOL
VD works great

>>496247857

>wait for quest to update firmware
>need to take penis size measurement to authenticate that its the meta account holder wearing the headset

>>496249131
I'm not rebuying everything. Games like Ragnarock never had the DLC or the multiplayer cracked. I check the VR Pirates Telegram every week. The flashy lights in Ragnarock and modded Beatsaber look way worse standalone too. I have a decent PC so I don't see the point.

>>496249323
none of this happens

>>496249596
of course it doesn't. As long as you don't know of it, it doesn't happen. peekaboo!

>>496241479
>The index displays are still good, orders of magnitude over the shit we used in 2019. Best for the price range still
A Quest 3 costs the same as an Index headset on it's own, so that's not true at all. Quest 2 had a better display years ago too, but the lenses were bad.
If Valve would just release an Index with an updated display and lenses, I would've gotten that instead of running a hybrid Quest 3 setup.
>It's the unavoidable latency when you use it to play actual vr games on your pc
It's been a non-issue for me outside of rhythm games, which fortunately work fine standalone.
Compression has been more of a problem, but if you can throw enough bitrate at it, that's usually not an issue.

>people think one onehundreth of a second latency is making rhythm games unplayable
LOL
lmfao
you're just shit

>>496249173
>any texture which is not flat lit anime falls into compression mush
>hands are visibly delayed
Compression cucks, when will they learn

>>496250023
both false

>>496249810
It's an issue an all games except social chat boxes

>>496250067
>he never seen how display port connected vr headset visuals look like
Carmack was right

>>496249421
I'm not saying you should rebuy things, anon, I'm just saying nobody complains because mostly everyone just bought the standalone version of the games.

>>496250367
i have
they're not as different as you say.

>>496250667
youre blind or gaslighting yourself or your standards are as low as normies

>>496250023
As someone who just moved from index to quest 3 wireless, the compression is not nearly that bad if you have good networking. Honestly I cant even tell unless krails cancer shader box in the TT map goes off. I do run a meme minion 6E with no other devices connected to it which helps a lot.
The delay is an actual problem tho, but most of mine seems to be coming from frame render and compression times since I'm still on a 1080ti

>>496250934
try using wireless on a wifi network that isnt wifi5 with 40 other devices connected to it retard

>>496250205
I've played plenty of games on both Quest 3 and Index. Latency really isn't the issue you seem to think it is.
>>496250023
The only time I've had either of those issues was when I was on a wifi 5 router with heavy interference.

I swear some people just have slower brains and are incapable of noticing latency.

quest 3 shills are something else
we get it: its a cheap headset that cuts corners that you get to fix with paid DLC

>>496251686
I don't see difference between 90 and 120 Hz in VR but I can see my hands being delayed on compression based PCVR

>>496251686
I just get used to whatever I'm using. I played with 300 ms latency bluetooth headphones for a while and just stopped noticing any difference. I generally play any game on minimum settings because it just looks the same after a few minutes,

>>496251304
I use a 6GHz WiFi network with nothing else connected and it's fine for VRChat but looks like garbage in anything else

>>496251898
>you can get a better hmd for cheaper (pico 4)

>>496252089
i have a pico 4 pro
it needed DLC addons to solve issues as well because:
>horrible stock facial interface that bleeds light warrants new face gasket
>battery life warrants bobo addon
>subpar audio warrants a quest audio solution stickytaped to the hmd
>above can't charge HMD via passthrough so need a USB hub to allow charging and use of audio at the same time
all-in-all it cost me
>$652.81 for HMD from Newegg
>$90.04 for cable/stickybits/chorus/hub
>$36.28 for face gasket
>$69.64 for bobo attachment
totaling $848.77 spent on the HMD and DLC to solve issues with it
its not a bad headset but I wouldn't call it cheap
if I want fbt with it I could use their Pico trackers or do a hybrid setup which I avoid like the plague despite already owning multiple SteamVR HMDs, trackers, etc. but that gives you a picture of potential extra costs to think about for a fully fleshed out setup

>>496252080
Sounds like you need to fix something with your config, what are you using for streaming?

>>496252719
oh also forgot index-style strap for the controllers which were $19.22

You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

we are truly /v/ now

>>496253007
please attach a Vive DAS, facial interface replacement, index strap controller addon, and some bobo or anker batteries on and then we can get started
also don't forget the minion router

>>496252719
quest needs even more...

>>496250023
Tell me you've never owned a Quest 3 without telling me you've never owned a Quest 3.

>>496253465
yea i have a bunch of addons for my quest 1 and quest 2 setups as well:
>Vive DAS
>adapters for above on both q1 and q2
>facial interface replacements (stock q2 caused rash)
>huge anker batteries with attachment for Vive DAS
>index style strap addons
i didn't use them much though either despite fixing all of that stuff

There is only one add-on that is absolutely needed.

Got my VROptician inserts, can't wait to try them!

>>496253119
No one is talking about VR being just strapping a monitor to your face with Wiimotes

>>496250023
brother I HAVE an index
the lenses are BLURRY
compression is just a magic cope word used by people who's optic stack isn't good enough to see the difference to begin with

>>496244668

>>496257254
no the compression sucks, it's gotten alot better lately with client side sharpining effects and higher bitrates, but you can still really see it in some scenes.

>>496253119
No matter what gets posted here there will always be a dumber opinion on /v/

>>496259373
I will still take it over the blurry Index lenses/screens. That's why my Index went into the closet after getting a QPro.

>>496259373
>sharpening
>good

>>496244668

>>496257254
>compression is just a magic cope word used by people who's optic stack isn't good enough to see the difference to begin with
Every leashcuck crying about compression and latency has never even tried a wireless headset before and is just repeating what they hear from another leashcuck.

>>496260004
compression cucks dont understand...

>$150 price decrease
Fuck I just bought a Quest 3 two weeks ago.

>>496252080

>>496264796
Refund within a month of purchase (I bought mine five weeks ago so can't).

>>496252080
bitrate and codec?

qpro h264+ @ 400mbps isn't perfect but better looking than index in nearly every scene

>>496268079
I can be cheeky and say modded Skyrim

>>496271569
Yes. Its extremely atmospheric with a good story with interesting gimmicks that set it apart from the main game. Be sure to replay the main games ending after

>>496268079
Hald Life 2 VR, Payday 2 VR, GTFO VR, Skyrim VR.

fuck it instead of waffling indecisively I think I'll buy a quest and be done with it. what is a good head strap that is actually worth the the 40-60 extra burgerbux that they seem to cost? the stock strap looks uncomfortable and front heavy

>>496265180
>some vrc games
Such as?

>>496280363
remember that webm of the two fags ERPing like one dude was fucking the other in the ass, and the bottom what moaning like a bitch and begging for his cum
vrc games like that

>>496280363
i suggest instagib, i sometimes drag it out when im feeling bored of standing around talking

>>496280576
Ok but I have dibs on top

>>496276909
>>496277405
A is the only correct choice.
If you stood up and a doorframe fell on you, woyld u catapult into the air? not even taking the bait, there are sub 100 IQ retards that think B is correct.
>>496271398
Thanks, looks cool, gives me NeosVR vibes.

>>496279454
what

>>496281880
does the world behind doorframe move towards you?

>>496281880
If a doorframe flew at you at hypersonic speeds would your exploded remains catapult out in every direction?

>>496278791
My friend’s O and P look so cute <3

>>496282112
i mean considering the shockwave, yes

>>496282112
only if the doorframe actually connected with you
If there was a hole in it, like a fucking portal, then the doorframe would never touch you and impart its kinetic energy to you, making its velocity moot

>>496282090
>>496282112
the hole in the doorframe have zero mass.

>>496282963
through the portal you enter a universe which is moving towards you

>yet another randosexual degenerate drags his great pug onahole to the meet

>>496279064
I like the Kiwi one that I have, but I've heard good things about the BoboVR ones too

>>496283106
No contact = No kinetic energy is imparted
You'd get a whoosh of air and nothing else

>>496283451
at hypersonic speed thats a slight understatement

>>496283451
why would you stop after moving through the portal into the moving universe?

>>496282425
you have a simple common sense mental model of how physics work
that simple common sense mental model does not apply here

how it enters the portal doesn't matter
if mass moves out of a portal at a certain velocity it will need force to stop it because that mass will have kinetic energy relative to the velocity

>>496265180
This is starting in about an hour, and will be in VRChat?
I had to stop playing a few months back after regularly going to stuff like Pypy because I had worsening heart troubles but it's been better the past two months or so, so I figured I'd give it a try again.

after using the quest 3, its made me appreciate the index more. the index just fucking works and is comfortable and has good audio and did i say it just fucking works?

>>496300225
How does quest 3 not “just work” for you? Literally 13 year olds can get it to work fine for them.

>>496301521
virtual desktop sucks and hybrid tracking is retarded

index falseflagger or literal retard
call it

oh
literal retard
nice

>>496301782
Use steamlink imo. But hybrid tracking only really just werks if you use a 4th tracker for continuous calibration.

IMUs like Slime VR are better suited for Quest since they work via the headset tracked space rather than a saved playspace that is different for quest and steamVR.

>>496302025
yes steamlink works well, if you only play vrchat, but the bitrate is utter dogshit and unusable if you play anything else. i love playing dirt rally 2 and having the road ahead of me turn into a grey smudgy mess and the foilage into greent blur

is there any significant advantage in 4 lighthouses vs 3 im thinking of buying 2.0s before they stop production

I use just 3 trackers and it’s fine and they’re htc 2.0

>>496302285
Sim racing doesn’t do well in a compressed wireless streaming environment specifically because of speeeeed. The bit rate you need becomes higher the faster sceneries need to change.
A vast majority of use cases wireless streaming is as good as wired.

what more could you want from these mods?
the only thing i can say as a negative against DRG is the map is kinda hard to view/control.
there's no 2 handing weapons or VR reloading but how could they even implement that?
the RoR2 mod even played nice with other mods, and was exactly the base game in VR. I dunno how you couldn't like these mods

Random question but is there a way as a PC user to see what the "quest version" of an avatar I am currently using looks like to quest users? as in an avatar that I did not upload, I cloned it in-game so I don't have the files. I want to see what they are seeing but naturally I only see the PC version of it when I toggle to it

>>496326047
I don't think there is a way because the avatar has been compiled for the Android build specifically.

>>496326047
Launch vrc on your phone

Turns out bonelab fusion has a couple of game modes. FFA/team deathmatch and hide and seek. Deathmatch it just throws you into random places of the current map and counts kills on a scoreboard. Repawns are random. Pretty sure you'd need to either download a map that is made for deathmatch or just place guns around the map before you start so you actually have something to fight with. You can still just grab their gun, shove the barrel out of the way, and fuck them up with your fists though.

>>496330325
Hide and seek teleports everyone to the same spot then blinds the first seeker for a little while. Seekers need to grab the hiders to catch them. We played with the rule that seekers had to use heavies and hiders had to be their smallest avatars. We also gave hiders the board gun which kind of just adds to the atmosphere more so than the effectiveness.

90 bucks to being able to kick things in B&S or play dance dash doesn't seem like a bad deal
any picobros tried the trackers?

>>496330325

>>496331780
it's like 90% there compared to lighthouse vive trackers. Definitely worth it

>$89 + tax + tip for the delivery driver per tracker, only works with pico and pico streaming software, and you need three of them since two leads to horrific playspace drift
absolutely not. you're better off just saving up a little bit more for lighthouses and vive 3.0s/tundras with whatever headset you want instead of being tied down to pico and only pico headsets and software.
hell even slimeVR + whatever headset you want is more worth it than pico's brand of shit that is the same as slime but more expensive and exclusive.

when people meme about how compression cucks can't see the color red without everything looking like compressed garbled garbage, pico connect is what proves them right the most because it truly is an abhorrent experience.
you'd have to be a fucking idiot to buy a full body tracking solution that can only be used on chinknesium headsets with terrible chinknesium software.

>lies again
unless you only tried pico streamer 3 years ago and never seen updates

>>496343650
i've tried it multiple times recently using the latest software downloaded from owomushi
it looks like shit compared to steam link and VD. i can not imagine having to be forced to use it just to access full body because it degrades the picture quality so much compared to other streaming options.

>>496343838
h265 tat 150 on ultra+ resolution is clear an sharp, except high res textures like foliage, I have no idea what are you talking about and i suspect you're a zucc shill

>>496274236
Payday 2 VR is such a shitty outdated experience, how can you even remotely recommend it.
As a non-VR game tho, it kicks ass, an absolute gem.

you know someone is lying or a shill when they tell you to steam link is better than anything

>>496345050
It is on Quest Pro. That's about it.

>>496335832
Thanks for the host! The low gravity mode definitely takes some time getting used to, especially when the course is packed with soft curves and low edges.

>>496340328
AAAAAIEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>496346360
did u dieded?

>best cars to throw around on gravel
>it's mostly asphalt

>>496346464
nearly

>>496346087
Oh no, you played mars hard mode and I missed it.

>>496346360
are you playing on desktop with a controller?

>>496345050
Steam Link is pretty good if you just want free plug and play. If it had a certain mic option it's missing I'd probably use it myself

>>496344873
As a VR game modded according to OP pastebin, it's a gem of a VR game, and most already owns it.

when did this general get so soft? crying and coping about who blocked who. grow a fucking spine or leave.

>>496349340
Nice the morning schizo post is here

>>496349340
Did you post in the wrong thread?

aaaaaa taskete

>>496143680
what was your setup on the software/connection side of things? I might have to make this work for a bit longer.
>>496348240
Default, I found it a better, smoother experience than quest link. Yes it's noticeably soft, but oddly not in the gross jpeg rainbow way that quest link is, just low resolution (it knows my pc's dogshit).

>>496349340
idk who you're talking to but if you're blocking people because you can't just ignore them you lose the right to call anyone soft lmao

Are posts about trannies getting auto filtered now or something? I'm trying to complain about them being everywhere but my post keeps vanishing.

>>496350897
Take a hint.

>>496350897
I think so, but it seems inconsistent what gets filtered

>>496351010
No fuck you. I'm getting real tired of them being in every single group I join, usually as staff. Is there any strict no tranny group?

>>496351184
nope we're everywhere, sorry chud :3

>>496351184
Outer wilds VR only has cishet characters, chud.

>>496351632
Your indie flop game is not Vrchat

>>496351184
whenever you make the chud only instance

>>496351695
Then play by yourself; you sound charming enough to have around that many people who want to talk to you.

guys why are there so many trannies in the vrchat anime girl avatar groups I join?

>>496351767
Do they put out, and if so, what groups?

>>496351767
Because the technology doesn't exist yet to make them anime girls in real life.

>>496318126
have.
not even a quarter as convenient of being able to bring my quest into literally any space in my home and play it.

>>496309947
why does the throwing look so delayed

>>496351767
if you constantly find yourself surrounded by trannies you have some soul searching to do, there are really not that many of them.

>>496351767
>anime girl avatar groups
geeeee
i wonder

>>496351767
Only you faggots have groups like that. I'm joining the "big" vrchat groups like ancients and mondocat and they all have trannies

Real VR Fishing in about 2 hours from now. Remember to redeem your free apology boat in cabin.

>>496015576 (OP)
Being trans and coomers aside, is there any use case for that tech? Seems like a big waste of money

>>496356751
>mondocat
oh I see sorrym you're joining vtuber groups not anime girl avatar groups, huge difference my bad

>>496357419
I was talking to my coworker yesterday about the meta connect.
Even they thought the quest at 300 was a pretty killer price point for might as well try it.
I feel like being able to tack on the ar stuff to it can be used as pretty good normie bait.
But I feel like they would pretty much just view it as a novelty.

>>496357681
>vtuber
what is this retard talking about? does anybody know?

>letting trannies live in your head rent free so much
