first for RIP shitfall

>>507385136
if they can actually release this then it seems like it will be better than the new pimax slop, halo straps are superior

>>507385136
They had a good run

Get off your jolly asses and come do some jolly dancing! It's PyPy Time!

i got my babble from project babble
can confirm the tiny plastic device is real
i just need some extra doodads to slap it on my beyond first but it indeed works with vrshat on linux

Does anyone want to watch Tokyo Godfathers tonight?

I just got back on VR chat. How did the persona thing go?

>>507389789
id be down depending on when

>>507386076
thanks for coming to PyPy! See you tomorrow!!

>>507386373

It's Mojito Monday! Grab yer eggnog and come chill on this festive evening!

I miss margarita monday

>>507399720
>40 people in a trash instance on a monday
>even when nothing else is going on mojito monday only gets 3-6 people
is it just because coomers, why is mojito monday always dead

Downloaded a new walking animation for my avatar but her eyes roll back in her head when she moves forward. That's uh... not normal, is it.

>>507402890
We were playing a game instead of just standing around drinking and people in /trash/ instances are always more fun and easygoing

>>507399720
non coomers dont want to stand around in vr drinking alchohol on a monday
the people that do are /trash/ fags

>>507403876
Being a normalfag who only plays on the weekend it's easy to find people to play with.
Being a degenerate coomer with zero standards makes it easy to find people to play with too.
But being somewhere in the middle where you hate coomers but aren't a normalfag, now that's the loneliest existence of all.

>>507404508
Fact. There is simply no place for people like that.

>>507386373
>watching those lighthouse users in minigolf as their hands spas out when they lean over to shoot

>>507404508
Someone like that can still hang on the weekend. You just end up bored out of your mind on all the other days

If you're happy with the moral degeneration tag on your life then I'm happy for you. At least, as long as I never have to meet you.

>>507402890

>>507404508
I play games on the side. No way I'm staining my soul. I can cope with the loneliness.

Yes you can stop same faging already and try outer wilds with the vr mod

>>507421683 (Cross-thread)

Input appreciated Anons

>>507422578
F4 doesn't get the modding support Skyrim does, it's playable but ultimately not that great in VR.

The Christmas period is a perfect time to play Half Life 2 VR including episodes 1 and 2.

>>507423272

Thanks. I was browsing the Nexus a bit and yeah it looks like even the modders kinda wrote this one off. Shame.

Default homeworld got a Christmas update in the nick of time. Does anyone still use the default homeworld or have you jumped ship elsewhere?
https://x.com/VRCFins/status/1871367098070712762

>>507425169
I have been using my own personal world for a while now, heck I even made a Christmas themed one

>>507425772
I hope the new map I'm making will become something like that.
But tbf I currently use another map I made, but its a gamerip.

What interface for toggling stuff is preferable?
AK switch, that you can touch or click with a mechanical switch sound to toggle stuff, or a UI / fingerpoint touch interface like in B club?
The B club style interface feels very modern, but AKSwitch have that nice klack of old analogue technology.

>>507424414
I really need to give these another go

>>507426374
Just remember to not have the touch as only possible input, have laser as an option.

>>507425169
jumped ship to a avatar testing world years ago because it's so convenient to just immediately be in a world to test a new avatar

>>507426803
The Touch UI I use have both options, finger and laser. AKSwitch don't so desktoppers can't toggle shit.

Chat, is this fixable?

A mega joycon drift on the left (legit cannot even open up the menu or use any radials, constantly walking backwards), literally split apart joycon on the right (pic embed), hard to press B button, and overall dusty.

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARS

refunding contractor showdown game is shit, tried to play with humans and in the 3 times I played, I never encountered any human

>>507430116
electronics cleaner will clear up most of that, but you'll probably be looking at replacing the joystick completely.
The good news is that it's just screwed to the board and connected with a ribbon cable, and getting the whole thing apart is a lot easier than the quest1 controllers.

Family is asking me how this vr-hobby is going

>>507439027
Well how is it going, anon?

>>507439229
Its okay

>>507439027
my dad walks into my room and casually converses with me while I have naked booths on my monitor in unity

>>507439483
he is just trying to hide him being disappointed. Cut him some slack.

>>507439027
I brought my quest and my uncle loves it. I told him about all the games I played this year. VR is the best.

I show my family photos from the meetups I went to.
The tame ones anyway.

Oh, swag. Cheers homie, might look to trying to patch these up considering how expensive controllers are.
I WAS gonna share an avatar I just finished making, but this is the thread that hates furries with a PASSION. So, no fruity alien bunny dude for anyone.

>>507439926
>>507441285
Nice try son but what you do on the computer isn't sex. If it was maybe you'd be able to get your mother a grandkid.

>>507439804
That's the easiest way for me to explain it too. I also showed them the deck of cards and they liked it.

>>507405363
>watch questies stare at their hands so they can be tracked

I am going to play Boneworks

I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING YOU TO PLEASE PLAY THE PUSH GAME MODE ON THE HIGH AND MEDIUM PUSH SERVERS ON PAVLOV

Some form of Christmas Karaoke will be attempted at 2030 GMT/2130 CET. This time pick some Christmas songs or something, and sing along.

Damn the shills weren't just shilling this time, Batman is actually great. And runs well on Pico 4 surprisingly, I though it would be choking given the difference in power

You wouldn't miss the Pavlov Christmas special would you?

>>507458485
Yeah I would and am going to
Maybe if you played some special modes for the occasion

>>507458485
Got a big dinner with the famiglia

>>507458485
EARLY, an NA on the way!

>>507457979
It runs on Quest 2 but it will choke in some sections even with the dynamic resolution.

>>507458603
If we don't get enough players for SnD and the Gem isn't around to do it I can switch the map/gamemode to something else. I want to play the Elf destruction gamemode

>>507459084
>Elf-destructuon
That sounds fun what's that about?

>>507459372
destroying elves

>>507459372
It's a Christmas themed kart racer mod for Pavlov with both a race mode and a breakfloor double dash arena mode.

>>507459507
To be honest anything is better than defuse so count me in.

Not really expecting a turnout because it's Christmas Eve and most people will be out, but I will still be running NA exploration at 7PM est.

>>507459372
It's an official mod endorsed by the devs

>>507458892
im dum... i shake in anticipation

It's a yearly tradition that impromptu Christmas meetups form on Christmas eve and usually Christmas day. If there isn't one going on this evening already, I'll log on and put a map up.

>>507479330
Come hang out in the Karaoke, after a bit we'll move on, probably to Resonite House or this year's Christmas map.

Which world is that?

>>507385136
On paper Pimax looks more convenient due to integrated audio and camera tracking option, but with their scam-like pricing of this headset and the usual Pimax QC/shipping issues I'd still rather get the MeganeX... if it, too, actually ships, sadly their track record hasn't been great so far.

>>507489669
cry about it

>>507490696
Comparing Pimax and Meganex...

Pimax actually released products and have been in the vr market for ages, while Megane only has vapourware....

>>507491419
one releases shit products, the other has yet to release anything

My parents love it because I've made three trips to Europe now because of EU meets and they find that mind-blowing versus how I had no friends in high-school.

Make sure to wish your parents Merry Christmas anons.

>>507489058
Omg let people enjoy Christmas!

>>507493237
How did that go? Did you just meet someone in the EU meetup and decide to go meet htem?

For my Christmas wish
i hope all /trash/fags a very lonely night

Ohno got 2l of alcohol as a Christmas present... think they know it will be all drank before the years up with my fine frens from /vrg/?

How do I tell his parents VRChat is dangerous without them thinking I’m a degenerate for playing it? Help?

>>507494115
Works fine for me still opening chrimbus presents

>>507494287
just bring him to a trash instance. He will make friends in no time

>>507493952
How are they /trash/fags if they come around here?

>>507492148
Happy Birthday M!

>>507494449
You fail to understand how integrated trash is.

>>507494287
Some places in vrchat are like going to the bar

>>507494287
If he already has a VR headset at 12 it is basically inevitable he will stumble across predators at some point. Stick him in some shit like Gorilla Tag and Among Us and hope he doesn't run into the wrong people until he's like at least 16 or something.

>>507494287
tell them VRChat is filled with adults and it would be the equivalent to them asking you to bring him along to the local pub
nothing degen about it

>>507494287
Just take him into the exploration of vrc worlds and the public game worlds . Public hangout worlds are sus

>>507505280
make a steam support ticket, they will prob replace it if youre EU

>>507505470
NA unfortunately. Honestly considering just getting a quest 3 or something.

>>507506275
still worth trying to contact support tho, but prob not gonna get anything. otherwise yeah, buy a quest, pico or psvr2

>>507505280
Time for a quest3

>>507505280
theres an audio jack near the power input, you can just get earbuds. as an option.

I've lurked the thread for a long time
I see you guys using blender all the time so I'm curious
is there any use case for things like shapelab or kudon? If you're a total newb maybe?

>>507505280
it's probably just the pogo pins coming loose on either the headphone itself or the attachment point on the left side of the headset. You can tighten them both with a T6 screwdriver, though the second one needs a long thin screwdriver, unless you take off the plastic shroud (also easy, but slightly more difficult).

>>507506469
>>507506946
okay it looks like it is time to become a questie until the deckard is out is there an faq to run it wired in steamvr?

>>507507732
it is probably because i tend to sleep in vr on my left side but i will check this out too

Merry Christmas! Tuesday PyPy is here, come burn off those extra holiday calories you've consumed!
https://vrch.at/d54gkm0b

>>507508210
buying a quest to use it wired is a waste of money, just buy a psvr2 instead, its literally $350 right now

>>507507568
Learning blender raw is better still imo

>>507508967
Any tips for someone that wants to make their own outfits for a BOOTH base?

>>507508560
Okay, I will just run the quest 3 wireless. I just noticed that it has the option for prescription lenses inserts which is actually awesome. What do I need besides another tracker for my head and a new router and power bank?

>>507509506
Learn how to box model and stitching via cloth simulation.
Also learn how to weight transfer. Very easy now if you just use the free robust weight transfer add-on

>>507494287

Those are more for high poly sculpts, as far as I can tell. Blender would be the preferred tool and it has a lot of documentation compared to those.

VRG mum-core has well earned his rest

>>507495129
I tried mentioning this to his dad after lunch he shrugged it off and said it couldn’t be worse than a CoD lobby.

can you bind enabling gestures to your controllers? i can do better pantomiming with them off but i also want quick access to the rock and roll and peace sign gestures...

Aight who we takin in boys

My gift to (you) is a video of a simulation of packing a wound in VR. Its very satisfying to stretch the packing gauze. My abstraction of packing is just twisting your controller while holding the trigger down over the wound. The next part is to make compression gauze that actually hold pressure on it. With out it, the wound would still bleed. and after that, a tourniquet.

>>507523179
Are you planning on making a survival game in VR? Also merry christmasssu! Thanks for the gift

>>507523152
Wrong general, anon.

Gentlemen, the year is ending and some of you are wondering where the Feels Bar is. This year has taken a toll on my motivation, sometimes it feels like I just shouldn't get out of bed and some days I don't. But then I remember these events and everyone who looks forward to them. Those who appreciate the work that we put into running a little event. I am therefore obligated to not disappoint, not just other, but myself. I don't want to say "Damn I should have done that". SO even if its a little late /DinnerCircle/ proudly presents the Feels Bar on Saturday, 28th at 10pm EST. We plan to have LIVE MUSIC played by different anon(s). Myself as the bartender, and (You). I know its the end of the year but, please drink responsibly!

>>507524125
Nice! I'll try to be there

>>507524125
not nice, i will not be there and drink alone

I’m a little pissed off that he doesn’t accept my genuine concern for my cousins safety and well being. Fuck it! Can someone please link me the please please please video or similar VRChat videos so I can show him and ask if he thinks this is appropriate for a 12 yr old?

>>507524125
Wouldn't miss it for the world. One of the best events we have.

>>507527080
It’s fine; it’s a Quest 3, so most of the wacky avatars won’t show up on his end unless linked to a PC. Besides its a meatgot of the youth, with their short attention spans, they’ll probably get bored and let the Quest gather dust. Probably.

I found a booth page for an avatar and on it is a link to a test world with the avi
What's stopping me/anyone from saving the avi from the world and not paying? trust/honor system or am I missing something

>>507529452
>What's stopping me/anyone from saving the avi from the world and not paying? trust/honor system or am I missing something
>newfriend here
Yes you can rip it. Honor system + it usually doesn't have all the features. And smarter sellers reduce the max texture of the sample avatars

>>507529820
Thanks

Well thanks to my curse I'm already awake with nothing to do. I opened my secret Santa gift last night so I may as well show it. Thank you for the lovely gift and a Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night. The lovely echidna mug will stay as a centrepiece but the mug will be coming along with me.

lads, are we playing anything tonight?

>>507529452
The clonable avatar it allows you to use is just a sample. It is set to public meaning that anyone can use it. You can use it just fine there is no trust or anything involved because it is a version of the avatar uploaded specifically to be public. However, the uploader controls the avatar as you use it, so they could just delete it whenever. They typically have reduced options and sample written on the texture. You can rip it but that only gets you an editable version of the same sample. I do NOT recommend hotswapping any more as it is detectable.

If you buy it you get access to the entire avatar and editable files for you to upload yourself. They often have nsfw bits too.

>>507501954
I don't think push sucks ass.

>>507533328
>>507535223
They forgot to write out the "S"

Did anyone ever try applying this?
https://booth.pm/en/items/4083144

I don't really get how to apply it properly.
It's not a texture, only mask and something else?

Kinda confused, even after following pic they put, isn't really good...

>>507541720
looks like its a matcap mask

>>507541869

This video is full of completely debunked lies and bullshit but I guess it could work as a scare tactic if you could actually convince someone to sit down to watch two fucking hours of this drivel.

>>507542721
Thats the point

>>507542813
idk VRChat is just GMod/Roblox for VR at this point, just have him play game worlds and make sure he's got parental supervision. I remember being a dumb kid on GMod everyone's allowed that as long as he knows how to protect himself and not reveal personal information.

>>507384748 (OP)
I canceled my pimax crystal super qled for this pimax dream air, meaning pimax stole a dollar from my reservation, but thats less money than bigscreen stole from me when they didnt refund the taxes of the audio strap when I returned it, so it's perfectly fine guys!

>>507543116
>make sure he's got parental supervision
We live in nearly 2025, that doesn't exist anymore.
Especially evident as anon said the father just shrugged and said it couldn't be worse than CoD lobbies.
>>507543287
Maybe you should just stop giving both of these companies money, have you thought about that?

>>507543319
As opposed to what? Using the valve index till the heatdeath of the universe? Using mixed playspace latent slop? not playing vr and gaming exclusively on my steam deck because i dont play movie game dei slop and spending the money i spend on a slop desktop with only 24 usable cpu lanes on some workstation that's actually fun to use? That last option sounds nice actually.

Does standalone VDXR not work with Pico Connect? I did select it in the picker, but pistol whip just launches in flat mode. No idea how this shit works.

Ancient Dungeon VR EU will be attempted today at around 16:00 UTC (17:00 UTC+1).
Lobby name/code will be LOSS.
A somewhat recent update has added 2 new levels that we want to explore, do be aware that you need to "buy" the access to the levels in game with 75 insight.

>>507543884
What picker? Pico Connect doesnt provide a vr runtime, its a driver for steamvr.
There is a secret chinese beta with openxr runtime vendored by pico though.

>>507544705
>What picker?
xr-picker from https://github.com/mbucchia/VirtualDesktop-OpenXR/releases
Should I be looking for that secret chinese beta then?

>>507536471
There's this >>507544579
but I also feel like STOMPAN so I'll host Iron Rebellion later tonight, like 19:00 GMT or so.

>>507544579
>the access to the levels in game with 75 insight.
Which you can instantly get by editing the save file with notepad :^)

I've spent more dollars than hours in VR. I need to fix that

>>507545048
Well, the picker selects openxr runtime, but if that runtime doesnt have your hmd drivers it wont do anything. Pico provides only steamvr drivers.
Youd need to region swap your pico as far as I know, and hunt that one version with openxr runtime. Most likely not worth it.

>>507545476
You got this anon

>>507536702
>I do NOT recommend hotswapping any more as it is detectable.

>>507545564
Oh well.
Still, region swapping is actually not too difficult, so I might look into that anyway.

>>507529452
>I found a demo online, what stops me from just playing the first 9 levels all the time and not buy the rest of the game?

>>507545048
If you really want dxvk runtime use Virtual Desktop.

>>507545945
A retarded analogy, but, ironically, the denuvo in metaphor was bypassed by just adding the data files from the full version of the game and implementing 1 missing function in the demo version exe.
So you definitely can cheat the system that way.

Trying to change my crouch and prone animations but when I add them my character is tipped at a 90 degree angle for crouching and tipped at a slightly less when prone. What the fuck is causing it?

>>507546076
I would, if I could get it to work wired without shitting itself. I still plan to do that but am out of ideas for now.
inb4 hurr durr get a new router instead

>>507546173
I was referencing the demos of games like Wolfenstein 3D, Quake and Doom that came with PC Magazines in the 90's. Wich are kinda similar to a public sample avatar in ways.

>>507546475
>inb4 hurr durr get a new router instead
that is not how I sound like :'(

I'm going to play a round of tourist trap hard mode in 1 hour 30 minutes (14:00 UTC) to enjoy some comfy music and there is nothing you can do to stop me. But you can join me.

Virtual Desktop basically emulates a native PCVR Oculus device. VDXR is just an Oculus-native "game" that then talks to OpenXR games.

Pico has a native SteamVR driver, and communicates directly with SteamVR. SteamVR also acts as an OpenXR runtime that talks to the games.

VD: VD -> Oculus -> SteamVR -> OpenXR
VDXR: VD -> Oculus -> OpenXR
Pico: Pico -> SteamVR -> OpenXR

VR is the only games I care about and no one is making shit. Years and years now just sitting around and nothing but bull shit. Not one mainstream game of any value. What is taking so long? Someone make something...

>>507556860
>Someone make something...

>>507556860

Steamlink is functionally equivalent to how Pico Connect works, though Valve being Valve allows them to integrate things a bit tighter.
They are all direct-mode drivers, meaning they don't rely on SteamVR to handle any of the compositing, they just tell SteamVR when and where to ask the game to render the next frame, and SteamVR passes the frame back to the driver. The driver then transmits the frame to the HMD where it is composited, reprojected and finally displayed.
However, unlike Steamlink and Pico, VD still has to contend with the Oculus compositor, and whatever else happens between the Oculus driver receiving the frame and passing it along.
I'm not entirely sure how VD's Oculus emulation stuff works. VD will work even without the VD driver enabled so it's not hooking into the Oculus SteamVR driver directly, but for all I know it may not be interacting with the stock Oculus runtime at all and just replacing it entirely.
Whatever the case, the fewer steps between the game and the final compositor, the better.

>>507556593
There is no steps between steamvr to openxr. Steamvr has 2 apis for applications: OpenXR and OpenVR. They both connect to backend OpenVR api for drivers and compositors.

I didnt know virtual desktop goes through oculus api layer for everything, I thought its better than that.

weird headset issues but seems fine now and the jong can continue
opening the parlor and grabbing some sake

I've got a GTX 1070 for a Valve Index now, managed to limp along well enough in the lower spec VR games, but I'm looking to upgrade, does anyone have any recommendations? Should I wait until Nvidia releases the 5000 series? I haven't paid any attention to any news but I saw some stuff about gimped VRAM.

>>507576497
RX 6800
16GB of VRAM and $400 and equivalent to a 3070

>>507576605
>Recomending AMD for vr
Amd has always had shit drivers. They can barely limp for flat games, but in vr youll always have weird issues.

>>507576497
Wait until 50xx releases and buy used 4090 or 3090.

>>507576829
Works fine for me. I have never had a single issue with my full AMD build and enjoy VR problem free every day. Do you have any proof of these allegations? I am never giving nvidia a dollar again for ethical reasons. I got 16GB of VRAM for $400 while nvidia bucks are fighting to pay $1600 for "next gen" 8GB.

>>507576829
works on my machine

Pavlove?

>>507576497
It depends heavily on your budget these days. Low/Medium tier Nvidia GPUs are VRAM cucked and there are multiple uses for VR that desire higher VRAM than flat games normally get by with.
If you will consider an AMD card then at least wait until CES in early Jan where they will announce their next generation.

>>507577563
>>507577232
I honestly in my conscience cannot recommend amd gpus for vr, due to all weird and unusual problems Ive seen reported. VR is fickle as it is already... But yes, fuck nvidia for being so greedy on vram

>>507578101
I have no issues with my RX 6800 for VR or any game and many other people will report the same. The "amd no drivers" is a 2014 meme that does not hold up any longer. If you voluntarily pay nvidia double the money for half the performance based off rumors you are the reason why such a terrible and exploitative company manages to stay alive.

What are the best options if I don't want to give ((them)) my retina or facial scans? Currently using Reverb G2, but will probably have to upgrade when WMR support dies.

>>507545089
IR lobby in 10 minutes.

any cheap gpu's for vr (rift s)?

>>507578734

>>507580062
Nvidia sisters?

>>507576605
>>507577874
>>507578724

So, consensus is, RX 6800 if I want to buy it now, else wait for the next generations to be released and pick up a current gen at a discount. Are there any current gen cards that are particularly good that I should keep my eye on?

For the anon recommending RX 6800, the release date for that card was 2020, have there really been no new VR games that stressed it? What general quality settings are you playing at and for which games?

>>507577232
being in a vrchat instance with more than avis drops my fps to 10 and maxes out my 3070's 8GB. 0 fps when I try to open steamvr menu. 16GB of vram fixes that right? I'd hate to sidegrade/upgrade only to find out it doesn't

>>507580927
Using avatar hider also helps with that.

>>507580541
6800 if in abject poverty and need upgrade now
7800 or 7900 if you need upgrade now
Wait for next gen announcement if you can wait and then get a deep discount 7800
8000s if you can wait

>>507580927
Not really even on 16gb of vram 80 people instances or terribly optimized maps rapes my framerates. No amount of vram can fix 60+ 300mb avatars. It helps a lot but isn't a magic fix. I think vrchat is pushing out an update to significantly improve vram usage soon anyway.

>>507581371
>no amount of vram can fix 60+ 300mb avatars.

Outdated info, now we have streamed mipmaps and vram limiter. It only loads highest resolution textures for closest avatars, and limits the resolution of textures loaded into vram if its running out. But meshes, render textures, and other data not affected by streamed mip maps can still use too much vram.

Has anyone bought anything from kiwi directly in Europe? How long did you have to wait for shipping? I can get the h4 boost from a retailer in my country in 2-3 days, but Kiwi says it takes 14-25 days from their site, which seems fucking insane. It's 10 euros cheaper from Kiwi and they throw in a lens protector for free. Is the 14-25 days a huge exaggeration?

anyway, guys, any instance tonight?

>>507583965
im not fanboying for amd. im stating a fact.

the 6000 and 7000 series of gpu's have some redeeming qualities like vram and better raster performance for a lower price compared to its nvidia counterparts.
it works well with VR too.

4 cents have been deposited into your nvidia account maybe in a few more decades you can afford a used 4060

>>507593112
Buying cards from crypto miners is better than buying them from gamers. Mined cards gad no thermal cycling stress and were used in a stable and most likely slightly undervolted manner. Its cheap and will last for years.

>>507595985
Yeah man, I skipped 40 series because I couldn't give a shit about fake frames.
It's such a fucking bummer that they killed NV-Link for prosumer cards. I'll keep pooling my 3090s for 48GB for rendering on until I die I guess

Due to me selling VRChat items on booth I got a questionaire to fill out.

It seems booth/vrchat are exploring an idea of giving a cut for VRChat when selling VRChat tagged content. Interesting

jesus christ that was horrifying

>>507615552
>I'd like to support VRChat by donating a portion of my income to VRChat
what cuck is going to vote yes on this?

>>507615552
So vrc+ was a bust?

>>507616362
That was way too fast, bad angle, didnt increase thrust just in case wire snaps. Im actually surprised cable didnt snap.

Youre are supposed to approach at like 150 knots, nose pitched up 5-7 degrees, while keeping the carrier at around 3 degrees below horizon from your point of view at all times.

>>507616504
Well, if you make money by selling stuff for VRChat, you might have some interest in keeping them afloat and/or expanding. Dunno if that's much cucking.

>>507615552
10% for da big guy

>>507616816
Thanks, Tom Cruise.

>>507615552
what level of begging are we on

>>507617573
With that logic, I hope you tip your landlord.
He provides you a place to sleep. Would be in your interest to keep him afloat, really.

>>507617573
You could use the same logic and say it should come out of booths take as well since they would not be getting that person selling on their platform if not for vrchat

>>507593112
Used 3090 is perfectly fine off amazon warehouse where you have both a return policy from amazon and the warranty if you go with one of the companies like evga that will honor a second hand warranty. Mine has been running strong under aggressive loads after it came in DOA from amazon (used) and evga replaced it immediately without hassle. That said miner cards are usually fine as long as you check them well and ideally repaste them. Graphics cards are designed to run for years under heavy loads.

>>507606293
That’s bananers

>>507616816
well yes, it was my first ever carrier landing:(

>>507607636
it’s kemonover

>>507617716

>>507618781
you do realize any 3090 with a warranty at best ends next year right? There are things also to worry about other than paste such as micro solder cracks and bad vrms. You are also paying well more than the price of a 7900xtx new for what you are describing.

>>507617938
Well, that doesn't fit as you pay your landlord directly.

>>507618126
Yes, it could, depending on how much booth makes with VRChat stuff. But in the end, they're just middlemen.

Look, I'm just saying, there is a reason why people could want to support VRChat in a way or another. If that's not your thing, okay. But at the end of the day, people need money to keep shit running. That's just life.

>>507623465

Evga honors warranty on resales for the full duration from date of purchase. 7900xtx isn't a bad option and I've heard the drivers have improved over the years however the primary reason it's been discouraged is those historically shit drivers. I'm not sure how in the wild 7900xtx cards fare these days for vr but 3090s used were drastically more stable for the same or less price several years ago. That said if money is an object a 4070ti super is probably going to perform very similarly in the vast majority of circumstances for an equal or less cost (and not having to deal with amd drivers) at the cost of vram though it's not that frequent that you'd be hitting 16gb of vram usage and not already be getting hard bottlenecked on cpu outside of high resolution headsets being run hard. It's rare I see my 3090 go over 14-16 on any given night unless I'm in a mega instance and trying to show the entire instance (in which case I'm basically always still cpu bound).

>>507623465
>>507615552
These booth assets can also be used on CVR, Neos and even Vroid. Do the other also get a cut? No? Why not?

>>507623827
it doesnt matter if evga honors warranty if they originally sold the card in 2020 as in the case of my failed crypto special :). If i wasnt in the need for vram for my high res headset Bigscreen Beyond. I would have gone for a 4070 (whatever green jew suffix) that matches performance aswell. Overall the used 3090 meme is just about dead. We will see how used 4090s fair but im in doubt the price will ever become sane for what they are due to the terrible sku lineup, and amd not trying thiz gen.

>>507624097
They most often use Vrchat sdk

>>507624723
It’s time to create the VRCSDK sub. Similar to the FINAL-IK sub. So grubby vrc hands can’t get to booth artist’s profits

:: /vrg/ Vault 2024 | January 25, 2025 ::
Take your time to look at your screenshot folder of 2024 and reminisce through your memories with friends and anons alike. Submit your favorite memories of 2024 in VR! It can be pictures, videos or items - so if you have some spare moments this weekend, get through your screenshot folder and send them in!
Up to 3 happy memories per month so let's go down memory lane together anon.

To make things easier, it would be great if the pictures are named or sorted accordingly (with the month/date in the filename), for your convenience there is even a .rar with a pre-organized folder structure available for download:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/l9nyizc9ca3kqlb/vrg+vault+2024.rar/file

The files can be sent via
e-mail: [email protected]
Discord: vrgvault
or just reply to this post with a link to your uploaded image folder.

ANYTHING GOES: Keep in mind that even though the vast majority of photos and screenshots will probably be from within VRChat, you can also share remarkable images from other games - it just has to be /vrg/-related, i.e. games or explorations coordinated in the thread.

FOR ITEMS: send the mesh (no udon please unless you know what you are doing, cause there won't be time to fix it, it will just be shoved into the LOD slot)
Any item that you want to place in the /vrg/ vault 2024 is welcome!

FOR VIDEOS: Just the youtube or any link to it would be good, we'll chuck it into the video player in the map.

Christmas music and fishing was a great way to spend the night. Another comfy Christmas with vrg.

>>507658773
Very comfy. It has gained enough momentum to become self sustaining now too.

i dont get what people mean when they say they have no family. a mother and a father had to have birthed you at one point.

the story is deeper than that. and i want to know it.

>>507660987
They're the black sheep of the family or their parents are dead.

>>507661259

Hello, everynyan! I hope everyone has had a banger of a Christmas and a nice comfy day winding down after all the festivities.
Thank you for all the well wishes and to my Santa for my gift that has been put to good use. Remember to rest up, stock up on booze, snacks, and what not and get ready to celebrate another year ending and a new one beginning.
It's bedtime now as it's time to go back to waging... so goodnight all and let's make the most of what's left of the year!

>>507662062
wooaahh is that your secret santer gift? fancy

>>507660987
Well if you want a blogpost either take it to /trash/ or ask them personally.

>>507662264
Yeah just a little. I kept clinking it out of habit and scared myself thinking I was going to break it so I kept putting it down between drinking.

Another day, another round of spontaneous walkabout mini golfing. In two hours (13:00 UTC) I'm going to play a round of Arizona Modern hard mode, with or without you.

>>507662901
HUH!? No you.

yesterday i got a little buzzed (not much) and got sleepy and stepped on my index cable and the headset disconnected. i thought "fuck it, good time to sleep anyways" and went to bed.

today i wake up and the headset didnt turn on. i thought "its over, it is SO SO OVER" until i noticed the little piece of shit power cable was not connected.
plugged it in and the headset sprung back to life.
another day of not buying a quest 3 passes.

>>507663843
Happy it worked, as a Quest 3 Hybrid chud, I recommend buying another Index.

As someone else on hybrid, I'm pretty happy with it. I wouldn't want to go back to Index for most stuff.

I love my friend, even though I don't really deserve them. I'm a ad person that tries to do better. Not sure if I will make it into the new year to be honest.

if I was ever so low that I sought that out I would already have a gun in my mouth

what are absolute must plays on vr? i played quite a bit already, but i want to see what i missed

>>507747447
VR valheim with friends
VR minecraft
VR Outer Worlds

Project Wingman would be the first thing that comes to mind. Few people give it a shot, but once you do, holy shit, this game is second to none. From insane story, through fun characters, to plane danmaku, this game never fails to impress. Other than that, Bonelab with anons is an unique experience - it's a specific game for specific kind of people, but it's good to at least give it a shot. Racing vidya is also extremely addictive, but wheel is pretty much a must so there's a barrier of entry for this one.

Pretty sure you've played all of the standard recommendations like alyx/pavlov/VRC, not gonna bother with that.

hey /vrg/, I was looking into upgrading my fbt. I have old ass cuck pucks. What's the hot new freshness?

>>507594029
Can you say that in English? I have no fucking idea what any of that meant.

>>507757269
VUT and it sucks. SlimeVR is ok if you are using quests. Else it’s still reliable cuckpucks

>>507384748 (OP)
Do any VR vets here know if rookie sideloader is safe and worth the setup? Its for standalone games right? If so not sure what to do for PCVR but thats another discussion

>>507758219

>>507758892
also yes it's for quest store games and apps
pcvr you can just pirate like any other pc games

>got quest 3 two months ago
>charge it on a literal pillow every time

>>507758892
i did it earlier today and im playing the light brigade without issue. and based on readmes, there's basically no risk in doing this at all

My controllers are so shaky in this game

It's not my hands either don't have this problem in other VR shooters

>>507556860
i’ve started more seriously VR game devving after reading an interview with the Ghosts of Tabor guy, who said he only starting making games cause he wanted more VR products.

Let’s be honest, most of the slop out there sucks. It mostly came out during 2021 and 2022 and you can leave those games in the past. i’ve spent hours searching through steams VR games and there’s really no point, if you haven’t heard of a game then it’s probably fucking horrendous.

i’ve been scammed with some $40 and $50 piece of shit products. if i make something that at least i enjoy and sell it for something like $10 or $15 there’ll be droves of VR users slopping it up

What should I do in VRChat if I dont have friends?

>>507779864
Chat with people, preferably in VR.

Daily reminder that if you are using unity, you will never make a good game.

>>507706145
Nothing was actually made by them, just kitbashed

>>507779809
adding more to my thought dump

if you release a game for VR in 2025 with vive tracker support, i think that’s an easy sell to a lot of the high end VR market base. even a minor integration lets you slap that tag on the game store page and would make sales based on that alone.

i’m trying to work on something at the moment that would involve getting in and out of a car simulator rig, seeing how hard it would be to integrate both VR controller steering as well as sim rig controls.

some other thoughts i’ve had for potential VR market space:

battle RPG system where you chop vegetables and cook food to cast spells. the problem with current VR rpgs casting spells is the goofy ass hand motions. take something that’s already been defined like cooking mechanics and use that.

game where you attach a vive tracker to your gunstock, your home base is customized to the size of your play space. imagine the gun care mechanics of Into the Radius with a physical weapon, placing the gun into a chamber for cleaning, setting a timer and walking away, then your base gets attacked so you have to rush back to your gun.

the point is there’s a lot of money to be made, lot of space to be explored, and no one’s fucking doing it so we have to

>>507780840
>>507779809
I wonder if it's a good idea to transition into VR game dev from VRchat map making. I know some map makers have made the jump. Udonsharp being basically a shell for C# makes it extremely similar if not outright the same. Just Monobehaviors converted into Udonbehaviors

>>507780840
exploring new ideas doesn't make money, especially not a niche area like VR

If you want to be a successful game developer, you have to find a way to sell legally not gambling to as many children as possible. I recommend mobile phones or tablets.

>>507780840
the number of vr users that play actual vr games and have vive trackers and are willing to buy indie game just because it uses them is probably close to 0

>>507757269
You have the best fbt setup

>>507779864
make friends in vrchat

>>507780840
Play dance dash. It is that VR game with tracker support, no-one plays it.

>>507788960
I'd like to play this but I live above my super. Would I get evicted for it or can you just slide around with socks ok?

>>507789191
You'd totally get evicted sorry there's lots of jumping

>>507788960
digital hopscotch?

>>507789430
It's loosely based on the 'dance rush' arcade game

>>507789335
guess I'll stick with beat saber and getting plapped instead
>>507789670
I heard someone saying you can import maps from dance rush or something?

>>507789796
>I heard someone saying you can import maps from dance rush or something?
The games are different enough that a straight import won't work but it supports custom map/songs so people have uploaded some, probably in the same configuration as the song in the game best they could do it.

I just wanna say thank you to all the friends who joined with me to celebrate the day and with many happy wishes in-between
Even if I was embarrassed at the time I was also happy to see you all!
I hope you all have a happy time in return!
