The multiplayer mod works just fine on pirate copies
>>522059595
no whey
>>522059689
As long as you have the latest version of the game and get all the mods set up, you're good to go.
Hard for me to recommend at the price they're asking for it, especially since what's there without modding is pretty disappointing, but messing around in multiplayer was fun the few times I've managed to make it to a lobby.
>>522059595

>>522060213
Why download a modpack when you can just use mod.io for mods? It works on pirated copies too.
Anyone else see how absolutely swamped booth is right now in AI slop? I'm sifting through about 4 pages of bullshit made in those god awful 3D model generators.

mod.io plugin was failing anons pretty much all the time, half of people in the room would auto-download a mod, half of them would not, and then they can't see anything being spawned when someone's using a mod. Given that we also want to have our private repository for avatars, I went for a full big modpack that contains everything we're using, it's the most reliable method.
Slowly considering version-control-based solutions though.

I had no idea they were not only remastering boneworks, using a new engine for it and slapping that one on bonelab, but also they're making a game called Hall of the Machine King? I honestly was worried these guys were dead.

>>522070357
I like it for watching anime. But I like using my actual monitor for video games as the refresh rate is high and HDR is cool and not available in VR.
I'm on Q3, virtual desktop with a 3090.
If I set to 90fps I get 90fps with like 1/2 people then basically always reproject at 45fps. If I set to 72fps I get 72fps until like 4-6 people then start reprojecting at 36fps.
I basically never go below the reprojection fps even to 20+ people. What settings should I use?

I'm a struggling newfag with bad anxiety and I usually just shut down and stay out of people's way before quitting out of shame or panic.
So far everyone I've spoken to has been nice but I still feel awful and getting drunk didn't help either.
I would be interested in a newfag event if it wasn't some zoo exhibit thing, not sure how you avoid that though.
I bought Standable.
I wanted to see how well it mixes with Vive trackers and so far it seems pretty good with covering for occluded hip tracker
>>522073310
Yeah you showed me that yesterday during explo. Was impressive how it just fallsback. Never saw you getting occluded. At least as an illusion

>>522073040
as a slightly newfag who has only been to a few events, you can't avoid it unless you are a very social person or can use alcohol to force yourself into being outgoing. most of of the /vrg/ circle doesn't even look at the thread. you will never fit in. at best you'll reach a place where you no longer get vote kicked for being an outsider but you will always be the person in the corner trying to socialize via osmosis.
i don't drink or do the weed so there is no hope for me
>>522073040
play vr games. its that simple newfren. me and somebody else played exfil zone today with a newfren and he was super nice and chill and we had a great time.

SEA Exploration Friends, what are your thoughts on using the groups system for recombining from smaller instances?
We usually join together again when I drop the same portal on both maps but this method becomes very unwieldy the more portals we drop.
Using the VRC group system for recombining the split portal instances we do would allow this to work.
I want us to be able to explore the good 8 player cap maps I've been seeing as well while maintaining exploration continuity and shared experience.
>>522098387
like a group for all SEA exploration people to be in? how does that help?
>>522098714
It allows us to make groups of 4+ people on the smallest maps and drop portals for everyone.
Then once someone finishes their map the trail blazer group creates the big instance map that can fit everyone else and broadcasts the signal to regroup together via the invite everyone button within the group.
I've been feelin a bit locked by not being able to do the smaller maps. And even the 32 cap maps we do it currently with great friction to be able to split and regroup.
>>522073920
The experience hasn't changed in 7 years.
Alrighty, please give me your finest tentacle-related tips. Ideas, solutions to problems, technology, anything goes. Mostly curious about mechanics and controls, but again, I'll be grateful for any and all kinds of inspiration.

Good luck!

Joining or making game lobbies is the best way.
Newfag here, I have a Quest 3 but the battery life is dogshit, anyone got any brand recommendations on battery packs that are not shit? Id rather not buy a pack and it run out of juice after a few weeks of recharge and use. Thanks to Mark Fuckerberg I only get a few hours before I need to charge.

hi, good morning/good evening, guys!
i started logging in vr chat everyday this month, and something that i noticed in the past few days, is that there are cheaters here that sometimes pull everyone together underground forcing a respawn multiple times. someone told me that they are using something called "mod menu" or something. have you ever heard or seen anything like this? anyway i could detect who's the one doing this?
>>522103384
Anker batteries are my go to battery packs
>>522103684
Thanks for the info, Ill look into these.
>>522103384
BoboVR has some as well but atm I just sort of wire myself with a long wire charger until I really need full freedom then I disconnect for how long I need upto 2 hrs. Then tie myself again for up to an hr to charge while using it.
>>522103384
https://a.co/d/1cFcEiD Here's the headstrap i use
https://a.co/d/6sdbSHE here's the battery i use on top of my head with rubberband around the top strap on my head
this gets me around 8 hours maybe 10 hours of use im also using 72hz since it saves the most battery
>>522103384
I've been really enjoying my bobo s3, the "range anxiety" is completely gone, even if I forget to charge it from last time.
Also don't get instant headaches from the quest 3 stap anymore.
>>522103758
Thanks, ill add these to my list.

>I'm yuki I hate /vrg/ related discords
>yuki has a million messages per week in his own /vrg/ adjacent discords
There's no fucking difference. Get off your high horse. Discord.gg/vrg isn't that bad now that most of the gay talk moved to krial's discord. people actually talk about VR games and hardware.
>>522104206
Do I really have to repeat why all the other discords not named "vrg" is ok but yours isn't?
The main difference is that your goal is to get everyone here to post in your discord so your discord becomes the community.
All the other adjacent cords are friends cords for people who became close with each other.
Your discord's purpose is to suck everything away from the thread.
The thread is here as the public and common watering hole where every individual anon and friend groups of /vrg/ congregate and share between each other their laughs, little bit of trolling, happy memories, thoughts and discussions about VR.
>The other way is join discord.gg/vrg and spam general and nsfw channel until people know your name. Then hangout with the VRC only fags, irl meet enthusiasts and the discors clique fags who are always looking for a +1 to their official vrg weekend VRC meets.

>>522104463
It's not my discord. Literally the only difference between his and your discords are that he has the /vrg/ vanity url. You're still /vrg/ adjacent discords that post about the same shit and take the same shit from the thread. You are most guilty of this with your constant spamming messages in discords. The name of a discord doesn't mean shit. Your discords are like the original "soccer" discord which wasn't using the /vrg/ name but was very obviously a /vrg/ discord. Stop playing stupid. You're a hypocrite. The name is the only difference and it doesn't matter. You would still cry if he used the vanity "rydercord" instead of "vrg" because it's not YOURS. You want to be the leader of /vrg/ which is evident by the stupid anchor thing you had made for you and your endless power grabs over 7 years. There's a reason why most people can't stand you. The only leaderfag more obvious than you is Krial and I like him more than you.
>>522104753
>You would still cry if he used the vanity "rydercord"
I would be so happy if he did that lol. And balance will be restored
>>522104847
Fuck off. Yuru's /vrg/ discord was named gg/yubucord for years until it got nuked. You still cried about it. It's not about the vanity url. It's about you not having control of it. I'm sure Ryder only holds the vanity url so other leaderfags like you can't grab it.
>>522104998
You have a point on the yubucord
I'm trying to remember exactly why I started to hate it back then. If I recall correctly it was a feeling of betrayal when it was advertised as an off-topic only location for socials from the thread. That offer made sense to me back then, but not as much now.
They started adding VR channels and that's about the point I started to hate it. Posts was visibly getting siphoned from the thread.
It was at the start so many of us have been bamboozled on the devils bargain of an off-topic discord for /vrg/
Was definitely a learning experience
Point is if a discord grows enough that it is brazenly advertised on the thread to be a "part of the community" then we know there's something wrong with that. The thread is the end all be all of the entry and the staying power to the community.
If you use the thread you are an anon of /vrg/
no ifs and buts.
My current opinion on the matter is that the name is pretty important. Naming it rydercord is a massive step in the correct direction. He can have his own friend group too, everyone deserves friends.
>>522105454
You're an idiot, lol. "I hated it being called yubucord but i dont remember why" "if ryder changes his to rydercord i would be happy"
/vrg/ adjacent discords are not "friendcords" they are rebranded /vrg/ discords, or as Dal would put it, "splintercords". You still talk about the same shit that takes away from the thread. You're still guilty of all the shit you claim you hate. Your semantics are retarded. The name doesn't mean anything and if ryder drops the vrg vanity, some other retard like you will just pick it up. That discord got way better after Krial took all the randos and sex talk over to his. Discords are a thing now and you know that because you spam yours more than anyone else. Don't act like you don't talk about VR shit in discord. The only difference is the name and you not having power there. You're the most insufferable leaderfag there is and that's saying a lot because I hate most of them.
>>522105748
>some other retard like you will just pick it up
Not if you just hold it onto a secondary server and lock the vrg vanity server from any posting
Step 1. Make Rydercord
Step 2. Lock /vrg/ vanity discord from any posting
Step 3. ???
Step 4. Anons will now not be tempted on posting in a "community discord" for the thread and instead do it in the thread instead when they want to talk with the anons of the thread
>"I hated it being called yubucord but i dont remember why" "if ryder changes his to rydercord i would be happy"
I literally explained it in the post you replied to on why I hated it
I will need you to understand my main points before we can continue this discussion else it will be fruitless.
What part of my argument are you getting lost in? I'll do my best to help you
The main crux of my argument is I don't want a discord that advertises itself as the "main discord" for the thread and aims to replace the thread as the public discussion place of everyone of /vrg/
I am glad for the 'official' server because I've never been invited to anything else.
>more and more instances are being age verified
Time to pay someone to verify for me...
>>522106215
Most of the others dont advertise, you just ask someone for an invite and the owners let you in, none of them care.

I'm happy for you anon but hope you can find others who would invite you for you rather than just a +1 in their drive to replace the thread. Keep at it with joining instances from here and maybe ask to join the friend group cord of the people you most vibed with.
As the other anon said, most will invite you over if they see you a lot and you just ask.

i'll cover what i know about the final ik side of things. i'm far from an expert and there's tons of stuff i haven't bothered to try or am not interested in trying.
The core is a CCIK chain and then an AimIK chain for the last ten bones or so. AimIK is important because it means you can point the end of the tentacle but it's worse with rotation limits (which you want). Point the CCIK chain at the "wrist" of your target and the aimIK chain at the "fingertip", which should be a few meters away from the "wrist". AimIK is made for posing player characters in 3rd person shooters so they aim at the crosshair, so think of it like that.
Where the "hand" and "fingertip" are is up to you, but I just use a constraint that snaps to my avatar's (hidden) hand when a bool parameter is toggled. you could probably get technical use a blendtree in your animator and control it with float parameters for position relative to your avatar but I haven't tried. Don't see why it wouldn't work though.
Don't use FABRIK it has issues in vrchat that cause the position to creep up with each frame, after 5 mins or so your chains will be stretched off into the corner of the world somewhere. This bug might be fixed but it wasn't a few years ago and CCIK does the job too with no problems
Other things to do when rigging and weight painting, reduce each bone's length as you get closer to tip of the tentacle, it makes it look much more natural once it goes into motion
When you're modeling offset the suckers so they're not completely parallel, it also looks nicer
FinalIK is calculated before Physbones. Too much physbones will make it so delayed you will struggle to move it to a target effectively, but no physbones leaves it a rigid arm.
If you don't want to use finalIK, phybones could be used too, since they're also a kind of inverse kinematics. While they can't be pointed at a target yet afaik, you could just grab the end of one with an invisible hand and lead it around.

What I mean with my post is that PSVR2 is not a viable market hence any development for improvement for PSVR2 (including face tracking) is delayed or worse halted. This goes for both commercial and community/modding works.

for unlicenced use of tobii software. The headset runs the eyetracking and forwards the tracking data over USB. Sony most likely only have a deal with tobii for playstation, not PC. Tobii is known to be extremely protective of their licencing.

Seems like it could be alienating for newfriends that aren't in the group, and a hassle of notifications for people who are in the group but not currently participating in the explo. Is there still no way to drop a portal to an existing Group+ instance?
>>522113109
>hassle of motification for those not currently joining the explo
Dang that actually is a very good point.
I briefly thought of making a temporary group to join in every start of explo but that quickly became anal to think about to use and.
Yeah I don’t know how to drop from existing groups+ instance yet but group memebers do see the instances up atm in their groups tabs. But it mihht be like friends+ portals I’ll check later
Maybe it’s fine as long as the mass invite is only used sparingly like once or twice max during exploration. Only uses for the really small map size cap maps.
For the medium maps (32 cap) we continue to use the split map system of just dropping the combination portal for both split maps
>>522113823
>group memebers do see the instances up atm in their groups tabs
Why not just train everyone to use this instead of the group invites? Existing members would be able to check their group to rejoin the larger instances, newfriends or people who don't want to join the group can just join off Y, and people who aren't doing SEA explo that weekend don't get spammed with invites. The groupwide invites just seem superfluous.
>>522114613
>Why not just train everyone to use this instead of the group invites?
Cause that requires training everyone instead of just clicking what essentially is a “press like and subscribe and hit the notification bell icon” but for vrchat.
It’s a herding cat problem solving essentially. I don’t want anyone feeling left behind or lost.
We do have the updating airtag already as well in the thread.
Maybe that is enough too so after the split people can just reconvene using that.
Only issue is if the group I am in are slow to finish the current small cap adventure map.
i’ll try it your way first and don’t use any mass invites at alll and just do the splits as groups+ instances and see how it works by just telling everyone to check the groups tab for the instance where we are in after the multiple small adventure maps and for the first one to finish to create a big insrance cap chill world of their choice as groups+ so everyone else can see . I have a hunch groups instances are slow to update from orevious event experience. Hopefully I’m wrong. Thanks again for the ideas and bounce and forth discussion anon

To share relaxing time before bigger instances and after work. With a focus on things having to stay calm and simple. Making it time limited to ensure it is meant to be an in-between time rather than something big. For that reason it will be posted in the thread but as invite+

How is vr gaming on Linux?
I've wanted to swap for a while and just haven't.
I finally downloaded windows 11 because it was a free upgrade and I've been having nonstop performance issues with vr.

Are there any issues it would cause for vr? I never wanted to install 11 anyway, and I can run a virtual machine if I need windows apps for work reasons.

I've been starting to say that with how the Quest 3 no longer demands non-graphical changes to games we should stop hating so much on the platform. With the Quest 1 they had to totally nuke AI in Onward to fit the CPU budget, but now they can push beyond what they had even before that in PCVR.
>>522123901

If you configure the group so you can join without an invite or approval, then it's also easy to just leave the group if you don't want the notifications for a weekend, then rejoin if you want them. If you post a link to the group's webpage, then it's as easy as clicking the 'invite me' button on an unlocked instance link.
If you're really afraid of invite annoyance, you could even preemptively kick everyone from the group after an explore session, then let them rejoin every week. IMO though this is unnecessary. Invites aren't that annoying, and if it is to someone, there's a "leave group" button in the notification UI.
FWIW a while back I did some testing with this group: https://vrc.group/VRTEST.0347 . It has one-click join and anyone can create group+ instances/portals. That way, if you do an exploration session and split up into small instances, people can drop their own group+ portals as needed. Or if you just get lazy and want somebody else to choose worlds and drop portals for a bit, you don't have to give permission (or have to post a new tracker or namedrop in the thread to switch hosts). However, since the group is permissionless, I turned off invites and other annoying features (gallery, posts, public group nameplate display, moderation, etc). But if you don't need those (and/or don't want to pay for vrc+), anyone should feel free to use that group to host some ad-hoc exploration. Or at least to kick the tires on using groups before setting one up yourself.

>>522129426
>>522129961
>>522130157
Any modern PC scene can have basically infinite baked lights for no performance hit. It speaks to the nature of how underpowered a system the Quest still is that these guys are avoiding point lights, possibly even still using vertex-based lights from the look of things to save performance, and yet somehow even in an enclosed room where a ton of culling is happening the scene still runs that poorly. Stop coping so hard. Standalone is shit and will continue to be shit for a while yet.

Hello /vrg/!
This week I wanna start a new dance activity, this will be inspired by the Japanese folk style "Yosakoi" but with a few twists:
> Non planned instances, we train this whenever we feel like it or others are online, more like a training dojo than dance lessons
> Aim to progress first and foremost, this will actually be difficult (but absolute beginners are dancing will always be welcome!)
> Cool avatar special effects that requires technical inputs

See the group like a dojo/room that is always open, if you don't see any ongoing group+ instance, you are encouraged to make one whenever you wanna use time to train (and people might join)
It may sound weird at first, but planned instances for something like this makes it impossible for growth over time. Since people will be less willing to join when the concept is already a few months old due to backlog in learning

VRC+ with custom profile image will hide avatar changes (the actual true stealth monthly cost lol).
Switching to orange before entering a new world will hide destination world until you go green again within that space, thus skip knowing world history by being orange where you dont want to be known. Be mindful of worlds with udon user join history lists if you dont feel comfortable being in that world ahead of time or a photo leaking that list.
User status color and text is remembered, so be mindful posting stupid moody things that might pattern you.
vrcx is akin to the modern vrc client and website that people dont grasp: which vrc is no longer a user based join but a instance based join. Such that once one has a link to a world instance they can see host name and number of current users there and self invite later, and can guess well whats going on as the instances user count changes around a low 2 user count over time (a 2 user instance users turned orange together for 40mins, guess what?! So instead both leave that instance first and empty the instance out to remove hints).
Its good to know instance links are remembered in the website to join on later like a bookmark... unless its locked in some cases for as i understand you need someone on your friends list green or someone orange to personally approve the world join request or the join-api notices and denies once you enter.
More pre-emptively and personalty better, dont do things you wont want to be judged for. Be confident in yourself and you're true wants around others, and show conviction in your own actions to tell the stalkers yes that is whom you are so they should fuck off in their face.

>>522150930
people want to talk to their friends on discord during the day, and play flat games with them etc etc
it's a human impulse and there's no way to stop people from wanting to do that, they will do it no matter what you do
as was the case in 2018, as is the case now
>>522151071
i think groups are only moderately useful
i also think there would be a lot of bickering on who should run it and there would eventually be a complete shitshow over whether or not to ban someone from the group
>>522151282
Tried that. You just end up excluded from everything and surrounded by others in their exclusive groups. Almost every "thread only" advocate is actually arranging things in private servers.
>>522151521
Then fuck em, they aren't the community.
>>522147736
It fucks me up so badly to think about what some of our community members looks like IRL just for a moment. Thankfully I'm pretty good at getting immersed most of the time.

Anons where can I find digimon avatars, either buy or pirate them, I found some guy in subsribestar which sells some, but can't pay them because my country is not in the list for the CC details, help I am desperate

I think i have change my mind about creating a whole seperate group, one anon gave a good idea
>newfriend hello events, something like world exploration except before weekend rather than on sunday, and then we all switch to avatar museum explore every time someone needs it
another anon said
> New hosters of instances/game lobbies/events are always appreciated, newfag or not. The set of anons willing to host things in the thread is unfortunately small and unchanging, and it'd be better if it wasn't. t. hoster of things in the thread.
maybe I can host a new instance every week dedicated for newcomers to get used to eachother? we could do world exp or play games, for anons who are not so social but want to hang in vr with people
>>522153249
Yes. It's just a general thing I would like to get over (and almost have)

Tuesday's movie is 12 Angry Men
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050083/
The jury in a New York City murder trial is frustrated by a single member whose skeptical caution forces them to more carefully consider the evidence before jumping to a hasty verdict.
starting at 19:00 UTC as usual !
>>522154079
Some of them are rigged. .obj won't be but you'll have to search through them. Getting them converted to vrchat can be done with cats plugin for blender really easily. If they don't have an armature you're either going to have to do it yourself or put up with/fix the scuff from mixamo.

Anyone have any experience with the Vive Focus Vision? I got one to replace my Reverb G2 since it shit the bed but I can't say I'm impressed. It feels blurrier than my Reverb and the glare is fucking awful. I was really hopeful for it since both headsets have fresnal lenses, but apparently the Reverb used single lenses while this uses double, causing worse glare.
>>522155710
even all the shilltubers hated it
best to avoid
>>522155710
Vive doesn't know how to make good headsets anymore and hasn't for a long while.
Due to the recent events, this person will be banned from all instances until:

Very cool rhythm based dancing. First challenge I managed to think of definitely is like a gym session where there is no schedule. People tend to skip out on training. How would you solve this
>>522156732
They never did, Valve basically did all the R&D work on the original Vive, they just got HTC to make them and gave them the rights in exchange for the manufacturing
>>522155710
It's just Focus 3 with integrated eye tracking addon. That's all you really need to know.

do you guys optimize your avatars to the point where even questfriends can see you? or is that overkill
>>522157596
we don't take kindly to quest users 'round these here parts
the only children we like are cute loli models piloted by 20-40 year old men
>>522157596
Most of /vrg/ are walking framenukes that either don't know the first thing about performance or gave up because no-one else bothers.
>>522157596
I have a single Questified version of my avatar that I used to upload as the Quest version of all my various uploads with different outfits, but now the imposter button is there and works well enough.
>>522157596
medium/poor is required for some instances outside this website. Anything beyond that is not really worth the effort. Especially not while the rating system is still half baked.
"very poor" is honestly fine in most cases unless you're doing something thats blatantly stupid. I really wish you could set limits on each individual stats, the current system sucks
>>522157596
It depends on a lot of things, generally you will make a PC version and a Quest version of the same avatar then upload them to the same Blueprint ID. Restricting a PC avatar to 20k triangles and no shaders seems like too great of a cost.
A zero toggle avatar is very easy to optimize because you can bake everything into a single skinned mesh and delete a huge amount of geometry. For example if the avatar has shoes you can delete the feet. If it has hair you can delete the back of the head. If it is wearing clothes you can delete huge sections of the body. Even with these tricks you are not going to get most PC avatars below 20k without decimation or manual editing of the mesh.
I've given up on quest because if you try to do anything interesting synchronizing the animator parameters across platforms and testing everything works both locally and remote is so painful it might as well be impossible.
To be honest VRChats insistence on growing userbase by reaching for increasingly accessible platforms has been absolute cancer to both the player and creator experience. I'm pretty sure they are just trying to scam investors by double/triple counting every user by treating every one of your logins as its own independent account (vrchat, steam, meta logins all work and count as separate accounts).
So fuck questies they don't deserve to see shit.
>>522157903
I'd say this is largely wrong. It's very group dependant. If you hang around trash sure but the majority of older non trash frequenters who have been around a while tend to put some effort into optimization in. The real walking frame nukes are usually the massive slampig avatars with 50 outfits or more particularly when people like dyemond over engineer/test random stuff and put retarded shit like real time lighting on their avatar to decrease the average fps of the instance by 10. I'd call that the minority though. Nearly everyone who actually works in blender tends to be passably optimized and many will shame the worst offenders. Much easier than it used to be with the newer settings.
>>522158874
There's also a bunch of pole dance clubs that want the audience in good avatars so the dancers can wear very poors, for obvious reasons, as well as some of the bigger rave events I've gone to though those ones tend to be less enforced unlike the previous which normally has a bouncer at spawn. If you're doing a single outfit, it's not that hard to make a good version of it that you can have a standalone avatar for the times you need it even if you're walking around as a very poor for the majority of the time as long as you're not an egregiously very poor. They really need to change the tri limits so you don't nosedive from good to very poor at 70k+1 tris, since that will fuck most things and then you're less incentivized to fix the rest.

Ya, I'm really wishing I spent more time doing research instead of jumping the gun on it. I'm going to give it a bit more of a try, but for $1000 I'm not gonna settle for "good enough".
Any good recommendations for an upgrade to the Reverb G2? I looked at a Pimax Crystal but was talked out of it by other people I asked. I've also heard that the PSVR2 with PC adapter is an option, but I haven't looked into it much. I'm considering just biting the bullet on a Quest but I really hate Facebook. Mostly what I'm looking for is
>off ear speakers
>no lighthouses needed
>preferably not giving Zuck my money/data
>>522160091
Pico if you want to give the chinks your data instead, but once you do the initial setup, you can just block the Quest from phoning home by not putting internet on the network you're setting up to run your VD over.
>>522160091
>>no lighthouses needed
any particular reason?
>>522160214
It doesn't strictly need a FB account anymore, right? Just an email? I guess I could live with that. But god damn do I hate Cuckerburg and his shitty websites. Shame Pico isn't in the US because I'd have gotten one years ago. If PSVR2 is any good I might try that.

Tiny play space and poor layout to set them up. My bed takes up a ton of floorspace in my room so I only have a rectangle about 5x8 feet.

Switch to Win 11? Don't use the PC for anything else besides VRChat? Restart every time before playing? This suddenly sounds like a lot just to play a game...
>>522179232
I use Windows 10 and have no issues with VR games
>>522179232
Win10 hits EOS this year unless you're on LTSC
so you either bite the bullet now or jump ship
>>522179232
yeah that's massive bait, you can go ahead and ignore every word in that image
obviously if you want to increase performance on a game then close out other running programs, but dedicating an entire install to being literally nothing but an os and vrchat is retarded
>>522179232
>yall
>>522179232
>Switch to Win 11?
No brainer unless win10 cuck.
>Don't use PC for anything besides VR chat?
Only if you want high security (vr chat is a lot of custom content).
Or low hardware because you need all of it concentrated on VRChat.
Shouldn't be a problem with an AMD 5800x3d and high vram graphics card, vrchat gobbles up CACHE and VRAM.
>Restart every time before playing?
Not necessary but fine.
>Bare minimum Windows install?
Why not. Just don't remove any components critical for VR.

Windows 11 scheduler actually is better, especially in the context of that guide where IIRC he was talking about the 7950x3d, but depending on your CPU it won't necessarily matter.
24H2 has issues for some people, so I'd personally just wait and upgrade from 10 to 11 at EOL instead.
>Don't use the PC for anything else besides VRChat? Restart every time before playing?
For what it's worth, the new version of that guide doesn't seem to mention those anymore, probably since they're kinda dumb suggestions.
Restarting does actually help with some occasional weird SteamVR issues if you run into them, but it's not like you have to do it every time.

While it’s safe here for now, what you said is exactly what’s happening on trash. Unfortunately K spoonfed in so many randos that think being a janny makes him important a la Reddit.

K was already on their radar when he publicly defended Sippbox on Twitter. Now that they know he’s a 4chan janny it’s blowing up.

Are there any OpenVR overlays that let you do keypresses via something like a Steam input touch menu? I want to be able to easily bring up a numpad/weapon wheel or something on the fly so I can switch weapons easily in Quake or whatevs. Valve did such a good job with the touch menu system on the Steam Deck so I can play things like city builders comfortably there.
I miss the days when I would get namedropped here. I've become an obscure nobody.
/DinnerCircle/ (Part 44) is back again after yet another pause. I hope I got everyones picture in here. As sweet as strawberry shortcake for spring. Spring is taking its time getting here for me. On Saturday the 3rd(of May) at 7pm ET we'll come together in a VRChat world to eat our strawberry shortcakes. I'll be trying to make my own strawberry shortcake, we'll see if that goes well. But (You) don't have to. Buy it, make it Japanese, or in a mug are all good options. ( or just bring what ever you want).
>>522240626
..
>>522240567
I haven't seen anything that does a full wheel or zones, but it's a good idea. https://github.com/BOLL7708/OpenVR2Key does do openvr inputs to arbitrary keypresses, so you could at least bind like quadrants of the touchpads.
>>522241571
The app specific configs are nice. I would only need a faux numpad in a few games anyways. Finally another use for the Index touchpads.

Love me some VTOL VR, if you enjoy flight sims and want a better understanding of jet (or helicopter) combat, or has some modicum of interest in DCS without learning the tedium of the actual startup procedures of jets I'd say it's worth it. I'm only around the 70 hrs mark myself played a bunch of single player because I figured the community would be mostly sweats but I've found in most co-op lobbies the folks are relatively chill beside the odd sperg or two which know the entire military brevity code list by heart and get slightly offended if you don't know the difference between a paveway and a pickle. Another plus being the very low percentage of children as most get filtered out by the controls but if you have the intelligence on how to wipe your own ass and cover your mouth when you cough it's not really hard to get competent.
This general is literally just 90% VRChat. There's hardly any point being here if you're not into that.
>>522254359
I try to mentally filter it all out. There's nowhere else to talk about VR on this trashheap of a site.
>>522254359
Not true, you can argue about whether the Deckard will ever exist for hundreds of posts. But you are right. Most of the games I play in VR have their own generals already. The guys in /simg/ stay on topic largely which is impressive.

I like single player story experiences. Looking forward to Vertigo 2's DLC. Will have time to binge it over the coming weekend. Working on Arken Age myself right now.
We've sure gotten some nice releases over the last year.
There needs to be a WarioWare or Mario Party type of game for VR
>>522255375
Played Behemoth and Crysis VR? Or maybe that Vampire The Masquerade game? I really liked those. Vampire even got some of that hitman vibe but actually made for vr, with the ways you could sneak around and fuck around guards.
>>522255527
Does Crysis VR have manual reloading? Being able to throw objects with VR controllers sounds like fun. I always had issues in the flat game throwing things where I wanted them.
>>522255474
There's some simple WarioWare kinda worlds in VRC, and you could maybe hop around some quick game worlds to do your own Mario Party thingwhich might be a fun event actually, but an actual dedicated game for it would be great.
>>522255690
no manual reload and throwing is janky. But it's still quite fun.
>>522255724

Udonsharp is litterally C# with small limitations, you can do anything you want in it. The only limit is the high ping of vrchat servers.
Running SRP in Assetto Corsa tomorow night at 8PM ET (about 24 hours from now).
The server is set up with Sol for night driving and comfy map for teleports, both are optional, but highly recommended.

I really enjoyed the official quests. I think vrchat will forever be hobbled by their attachment to photon networking. Or they'd need serious capital to rearchitect, and that probably isn't happening. Maybe if they start putting AI somewhere to bait VC firms.

Definitely still needs an easy automated way for people to get their own unique API for their VRchat account. But we've been using it for exploration for two weeks and is really robust and works. Useful for anyone wanting to host a multiple-world game/world session in VRchat
>>522111079
This was discussed publicly over a month ago. Surely over that timespan the few headlines from VR publishers would have gained Sony's (or Tobii's) attention, and a C&D would've likely already taken place.
Does the lead dev lurk here? Why the seemingly artificial delay? We've seen a few demonstrations of it in action... sure. And if it's something relating to stability, understandable.
It would be nice to have more transparency.
>>522268116
There's no built-in voice chat for Assetto,people sperg out about discord and I'd rather not manage it anyways, and someone here set up that mumble server ages ago.
Works fine for playing VR stuff that doesn't have built in voice chat, so as long as that anon keeps it running, I don't really have any reason to figure some other alternative out.
>>522268287
No more than anything else really, exposed to the server owner, but it's the same for Assetto.
Could try connecting through a VPN or something if you're seriously that worried about it.

I will have to remind you that custom VRchat avatars are on-topic. And something modifying it is tangentially related.
It's a creative outlet
>>522284903
headsets are made in china, so china is tangentally related. Stick to vr retard
>>522284903
it's a shitposting outlet
>>522284989
Yoooo!
*kitchen in dungeon starts blasting from the speakers*
>>522284989
That's actually related. Headsets are made in china and it affects the quality control on it.
If you wish to actually discuss about the chinese stealing zuck production details on quest 2's to make pico then it's super valid.
My rule of thumb is upto-three tangents from the main discussion topic. In this case Virtual Reality.
Anything more and it becomes too off-topic, anything less is suffocating on discussion.

This is the kind of posting you use a discord for. Off-topic stuff that's kind of community focused rather than actually being about VR. '3 levels' is the same detachment as almost any wiki article from hitler, by the way.
I say this because there's clearly a difference between yuki et al who just treats the thread as a social club and people who want to use the thread as a space to talk about VR games on 4chan. Guess which group I'm in.

It really doesn't matter to worry about this
Go look at /xivg/
>>522286885
For every person in the second group there are 19 "people" in the first one.
IDs proved that most posters are most interested in gossip and not vr.
Or at the very least they mostly lurk and only reply to offtopic stuff.
>>522287130
It's fine if the 19 people are directly talking about something that's in a VR game, even if it's just VRC. Problem is when it becomes picrew spam, or whatever this crap is
>>522286885
Buddy there's enough space for socials, VR/agdg/, creativity and strictly just games in this thread. We can co-exist. The beauty of VR is that it's an infinite canvas ready to take in all our varying hobbies.
VR is literally Reality 2.0
It is the Alpha and the Omega. The Start and the End. Un and An. The one-hobby to rule them all

you're right, i can't even notice vidya posts in this septic tank of low quality fun anymore. no wait, it's literally not here at all
Let people have any resemblance of positivity every now and then. Without having that sometimes, all you're left with is rampant shitposting, hardware discussions that devolve into flame wars, and three people posting vidya webms.

If you want a deal check used. Lots of people use them as dust collectors and if you give them a wipe before use they're fine. Don't expect sales often.

>>522293469
What the heck you are cute!
im not sure what shader i'm supposed to use for the transparent textures. Poiyomi worked for the others...
>>522293884
You just need to set it to cutout or transparent.
Even liltoon or any anime shader has this setting
I really want to use my avatars hair on a different avatar but idk how
Do I have to separate it in blender?
>>522293884
Consider shader as a program that takes input and does things to how things are rendered. In that case, your material would be input settings for that program. You don't want to look for a specific transparent shader because every popular vrc shader has some kind of transparency handling, you want to set your material (input for shader) to behave in a way that handles transparencies. I believe Poyomi has presets for transparency, on top of the settings window when you'll open the material, that would be the quickest way to get started.
>>522295130
<pick it up gif here>
>>522295170
Im clinically retarded have mercy
>>522295130
Sounds about right if you have a single mesh for the whole avatar. The easiest way to go around it would be either splitting mesh by materials in cats, or, if necessary:
>open mesh in edit mode
>select some random vertices on hair mesh
>hold ctrl+numpad plus button
>adjacent vertices will be selected
>it shouldn't spill over outside of hair because hair is rarely connected to rest of the avatar with actual mesh elements
>now you have an easy way to select vertices you want, you can take it from here for sure
>>522295335
CTRL+L
use the little context menu to select what counts as "linked"
>>522295156
thank you for the input, the shader i went with for the face bits and hair shadow looks kinda bad. also, are there any tools for easy optimization? i'd like to combine the skinned meshes into one, and maybe make it questie compatible if it isnt too much effort
>>522295648
Optimization is blender territory, though there are tools such as
https://github.com/d4rkc0d3r/d4rkAvatarOptimizer
that could help you. But for now, maybe focus on those face bits, fiddle around with material, wiggle sliders and see what happens, get comfortable. One thing you probably want to fix is that your original avatar's screenshot had dark orange tint to your shadow, and your version is plain black, black shadows never actually work in reality, you always want a darker tint of the color that shadow is casted on.my personal opinion is that liltoon is a bit more self-explanatory than poyomi, but i don't think it's a big deal. you can play around with either and you'll learn your way around it eventually
>>522295335

What elements does /vg/ think a world needs to have in order to gain lasting popularity among VRChat "normies" these days? I've tried adding various gimmicks I've seen in other worlds that are still popular including pens, video players, food and drink pickups, and even games of various types to my worlds, but they never get consistent traffic in public instances for longer than a week after being uploaded.
>>522328334

>>522328334
>they never get consistent traffic in public instances for longer than a week after being uploaded.
That's because VRChat's system for exploring new worlds is fucking trash dogshit
>>522328334
If you're purely trying to game visit count and active instances, "idle" games/gacha/variable schedule reinforcement is the tried and true human psychology hack for retention. That or convince some socially relevant group to use your world for their events.
If you're above exploiting base human neurology but still want numbers to go up, you have to make something unique, not just add all the prefabs. The market is saturated for chill hangout apartments with pens and video players and pool tables.

"VR has a much smaller audience. I don't think you need VR to have anything like this. Like VR is hardware that may or may not enhance the experience for some usage. cases. For some it will probably be better and for some it will probably be worse but certainly there's not any uh set of battle royale players flocking to uh flocking to VR."
"I think your interview with Mark Zuckerberg conducted in VR was a really good first example of this. Uh so you did this VR discussion. It was capturing your faces uh and then rendering a completely 3D computer graphics model of your faces and then the end result was patched up by an AI image enhancer that was able to add an awful lot of the missing subtleties that are lost by normal computer graphics rendering."

You know what I love? I love Vox Machinae. Imagine a game where VR controls are not merely simplified in count to adjust to the precision of your free-floating knuckles that you hold mid-air, but also simplified to the precision of the controller itself. This is perfection, but I don't expect it to be able to be easily pulled off in every scenario.
If you can minimize toggle count, and then you can minimize the need to be precise with controllers, you're my hero. If not, oh well, you're still a great guy for trying to deliver something of value.

weak. how do you expect to ever beat the trannies if you're incapacitated by a fucking pronoun on a nameplate?
>>522335225
>still playing with nameplates on in 2025
lol
Anyone you don't immediately recognise from avatar, voice, or body language is not worth talking to
>>522343354
Exactly, and then I can set your volume to 1% and avatar to disable.
Saves us both time.

It's going to be very easy to kick randos now

Steam didn't exist in 1991, id*ot
>>522343638
Considering everyone changes to the latest FOTM booth avatar I think I'll keep mine on.

Since no one else mentioned it, you can get refurbished ones straight from Meta for a discount if you want a lightly used one with a warranty that's already been cleaned up.
You don't need a Facebook account for a Meta account and I don't remember needing a phone number, but you do need a phone app to set up the headset.
>>522334692
just dont have nameplates on? why are you having them on in the first place?
Would YOU hang out on this map?
>>522345618
Do you know anyone that got a refurbished one from meta? I fucked up my lenses with scratches mark and I don't think it's gonna last me more than a few month so I'm already looking for a replacement.
>>522280692
i got turned into a midget...
>>522345738
Because everyone changes avatars to the new FOTM constantly and look same
>>522326721
As far as I can tell, it kinda sounds like something coming from the WRC licensing side, so I'm at least glad the game isn't getting pulled.
>>522345784
If you add karaoke and a bar below deck like in Pirate Yakuza then sure
>>522345784
could use some more visual interest in the water, aside from that add some good ambient noise and a video player constantly looping sea shanties and you might be cooking.also a pool table somewhere
so vrgsisters are we going with xe/xem or ze/zir
>>522346218
That's the plan
>>522346050
I find that people without personalized and unique avatars are seldom worth interacting with
>>522345784
It's pretty boring

Yea, I got mine as a refurb from Meta right after they announced the Quest 3S and were getting rid of their Quest 3 128g stock. Works great, came in the box like new to the point you'd never be able to tell.
>>522345784
if I ever happen to see an instance hosted there sure. I don't think I'd spend time there alone in any other case
>>522346875
Oh sweet. How does that work? Do I just send them a ticket sayin I want to buy a refurb or something?
>>522322379
Wait how did you manage to extract the walking and idle motion?
>>522345784
perched on top of the mesh collider on the mast you hopefully didn't remove. Everywhere I go, I must also platform.

cool, multiplayer support. I haven't tried it yet, but might host a lobby later. If you don't know it, it's the open sores fork of tiltbrush after google abandoned it. 3d sketching/painting thing. Very 2017-era VR core.

I was temped to go with big/zam but I went with my dead name because it's short and everyone calls me it anyway but I may mix it up fir the bit
>>522280692
I tried a few pictures of me and my bf, and it made some monstrosities of a mix of our features, but this one for some reason only used me
>>522348020
Start the game then press Ctrl+I, click on media and download the files

Bold of you to assume I think posting our custom VR avatars is bad
>>522355786
>>522355882
It seems to generate pretty differently each time, even for the same picture. So it's taking a bit to recreate anything similar to some of the first few I generated and didn't save because I didn't realize I should.
>>522356686
>It seems to generate pretty differently each time
Yeah that's the random seed function. AI generators tend to have built-in psuedo randomness
>>522356686
>It seems to generate pretty differently each time, even for the same picture.it also sometimes screws up in funniest ways. i got my dorky ones saved though
>>522356778
I'm mostly just surprised how wildly different the outputs end up being. Not just a little different either. An image that the first time was a full on 50/50 mix ended up being 100% just me the second time.
>>522280692
a bit cute yea

Neat concept, but it's just another ai slop tool. Whatever it "creates", by nature, is entirely and directly derivative.
