this is so cute

>>524313736
Imagine if that was done in the west and there were pin-ups of gumroad glowies and eboys on the walls instead.
I sure do love booth babes.

>>524314123
mashallah abdullah my brother, I will be there to upset the infidels.
perhaps you could provide some swim trunks models in your later advertising, maybe ones with custom textures for the event

Be there or be مربع قائم الزاوية

May allah forgive me for showing female skin

>>524314445
is there anything else happening at this event besides entertaining the host's fetish?

oops

>>524314432
uhm, kitsune have face markings babe and it's kino
and ya it was ass, the face was too round, had eye tracking problems, the IK terrible and the tail got in the way constantly

>>524314770

This Event Is Dedicated to the Brave Mujahideen Fighters of /vrg/

Mash'allah Habibi's. On the 21st of June (it has been arbitrarily decided), there will be an event for our brothers. Please dress up appropriately in your most inspiring gear and equipment, gifted from Allah.

We shall purge any infidels pretending to be men and attempting to taint the sacriledge of masculinity. There will be a picture commemorating our time together as the true warriors of Allah, and the ones who carry on Muhammeds (PBUH) legacy. Ayna al-maktaba.

>>524314548
you need more?

>>524313736
That's really cute! There are a lot of fun vrc-adjacent things to do over in Japan. I'm jealous of the stuff they have.

There's also a cool bar over in Osaka run by a vrc guy. He had a bunch of vrc decor and he had vrc music videos playing on the tv, some of which he recorded himself. If you're ever in the area I'd definitely recommend a visit. There's a big guestbook full of signatures from vrc people, find me in it!

The bar (warning the bartender is a mamehinata gremlin) https://x.com/VRTikiRes

yes i deleted the other post because I forgot the image im a stupid fucking retard okay

>>524314548
its not my fetish its just a Japanese trend/meme
it is a self admitted low effort costume party event
but now we have shitposted the mujahideen as well at the same time
choose your fighter anon.
deepest lore is both events will be at the same time on the same map hosted by the same person

>>524315439
what the fuck that's so fucking cool

>>524313736
I have a poster of my avatar on my wall, A1 sized

>>524314795
dont listen to them n you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are dont EVER let them get you down i cherish and adore you and you deserve the world

>mfw thinking of you hurting

>>524315439
JP autism is disgusting

I wish people liked my avatars...

>>524315643
im going to kms because of this post

>>524315784
Post it, we'll be nice :)

>>524315439
Thanks a lot anon, I'll be changing hotels to Kyoto soon, Osaka is train distance apparently. I'll make absolute sure to hit up this place.

Japan is such a wonderful place, I came over expecting paris syndrome, ended up with hands down the best travel experience I ever had in my life. Insane how comfy crowded cities can be when people behave

>>524314770
Yea, when there is a long straight its scary. I was preemptively slowing down after like 5 seconds of max speed, because the straights cant be that long. Ice was scary, but so fun.

>>524315824
frantically searching through my image folder only to realize that i didnt actually take any pictures of the latest n its so fucking over and its never coming back

ayyyy everyone! :3

I was doing some thinking today in vrc, and it gave me an idea after playing some video game worlds with some anons recently, would it be a cool idea someday if I host some kind of instance where we explore video game related stuff. I do have a list of some ideas like Nintendo (pic related), TF2, Silent Hill, and even some playable stuff like Doom, Prop Hunt, and even that classic Home Run Contest from SSB. I'll be happy to do an AMA or whatever for a few hours if anyone is curious.

>>524317084
sports resort my beloved...
we should do a friday night on this map and point everyone to the same area

>>524317250
why, why not right now or later

>>524317357
its not friday when everynyan is online and im at work

>>524317518
there's people online though

but they are playing mahjong

>Gem Backuo Server

>>524317250
hmm I might be busy on friday. I will say you can drive planes as you see, but it's the only interactive thing so far, so no swordplay or bowling. There is a wii sports world that has everything except boxing and a Nintendo Switch Sports chambara world that works fine.

>>524317837
we aint exactly doing that silly. It's pretty much the world exploration events here but with a gamer theme. lazy idea I know :p

>>524318119
I don't know yet lol, that's why im just here brainstorming right now. maybe soon or maybe after all the May events.

>>524318910
>I don't know yet lol
first rule of thumb when hosting something
state the time and day first, then modify according to anons complaints and responses. otherwise youll never get any proper response beyond "yeahhh i mean could do wed or thurs or sat" etc from anyone
post and host, and they will come

>>524318910
I hate this picture because used to be on PS home all the time

>>524318120
You saw nothing.

>>524319273
I mean I get that, good point. I'm just still not certain if I even want to do this yet, but also I hate rescheduling after I make up my mind due to something important. I guess if you really want me to state the time and day, maybe next wed 7pm est? (I'm NA)

>>524319376
same, that's why i'm glad VRChat exists, but also being on /vrg/ reminds me of the good old days. There is this "spiritual successor" speaking of https://store.steampowered.com/app/394120/Home_Legacy/

>>524320972
Consider posting a poal.me with a few possible dates and times (and open it to new responses).

Ever since hiroshimoot's 15 minute first post timers, it's harder to get just casual replies to gauge interest, vs a poll you can just click.

>>524317084
>>524322041
https://poal.me/okytg there. thanks anon

>>524322041
as someone who hosts stuff, believe me, it's not as much of a great idea as it sounds. at best you'll get two responses, at worst you'll get it shitposted with bullshit entries.

build it and they will come, then ask ones who came about it in game. anon says 7p est, now he should shill it so everyonr knows, then host it, see if anyone joins, finally post some photos of people having fun. after that, just wait for genuine 'the hell, this looks fun, how do i join', and then reconsider dates if there's lots of anons thirsty for fun.

not that i'm against the poalme idea, feel free to try, but one of few things host has to do is make a solid call and only readjust based on genuine responses from hyped people

you can do it, host anon, a tiny bit of decisiveness and you're golden. don't bother with consensus, it's impossible around here

and a ching chong nip nong to you too young lady

>>524316009
>Insane how comfy crowded cities can be when people behave
That's how living in place with no niggers is like

>>524323329
>>524322041
My experience has also been that asking for any kind of input is a waste of time.

Should be some NA explo at the usual time (10est) tonight

>>524323731
i uhhhhh. yeah anon, h-haha

Shinjuku is absolutely SWARMED with black touts. They're targeting exclusively tourists, trying to scam them into overpriced pubs and girls. Literally swarmed, every night, every single street, every single corner, there's a group of 3-5 black touts who are constantly trying to chat you up with good english, trying to shake your hand, sometimes patting your back. I just go instant 'no thank you' and that solves the issue, but still, the bad taste remains. But for what it's worth, I'll give them tiny bit of a credit for behaving in a semi-civilized way and looking somewhat decent in fancy clothes, at least given that their job is probably luring you into big trouble. I don't feel unsafe, they still play along with general Japanese culture of not being an ugly lowlife. Horrible stuff though, I'm from central Europe and I've literally never seen as many blacks around as I do here

>>524323329
>>>524323329
I mean, to be fair, im more concerned about the interest anons would have. the date doesn't have to be perfect, I understand that. If i expect barely anyone to join, that's fine, it's just right now, i'm just wondering if I should just do it in the first place and see what happens honestly. Maybe if I get great results, then maybe I'll do it again if I feel like it, we'll see ig.

>>524324832
Good approach. I can see you're kind of an consensus-based person, so just wanted to warn you that this stuff won't do here. You have to act like it's your thing decide, make a loud and clear call, and only respond when actual anons in game tell you that something could be done better. Don't get discouraged on first week either, love your handful of anons who took their time to join you, post threadly reminders about the event, and make sure to take some photos so you can post them in thread and attract more people for the next week. People who genuinely want to join will go out of their way as long as it's possible for them to join, people who don't really care, well, you're better off without them, they'd just spoil the mood.

I think you have a good idea for the event, i'll br rooting for you. And if it won't work out, oh well, no big deal, you did what you could and you definitely shouldn't beat yourself over it. Don't worry about anything.

>>524323329
Sure, that sometimes works too, but it's nice to get at least some precommitment to new ideas before you like sit in an empty instance for 30 minutes, log off, then get a few (You)s later saying "oh I forgot that was happening" or "ree I was waging". t. have also hosted a lot of stuff over the years.

I will say 7pm ET is a particularly cursed timeslot these days; I still don't understand entirely why exactly but current year vrg is heavily west-coast biased. 10pm is the earliest.

>>524324832
I'd give it a few days at least to gauge interest, through replies or poll votes or whatever. The other anon's advice that you should just wing it is still valid of course, but you'll have to be prepared to entertain yourself with some solo exploring to start.

>>524324361

>>524325670
>>524325697
alright I see. I have to do shit now before the NA explor so i'll be there tonight if anyone wants to ask me questions, just follow the lispy rat~
thank you anons again

>>524329732
can we bring them back?

>>524313736
Japan proves to be the holy land once more. So cuuuute. Japan loves VR so much and we should aspire to be like the japanese

>>524329848
With (You)r help, sure.

The original host for those 2022 sessions is currently wagecucked to death, but I (cohost) could still get the world id for new instances if you wanted. It wasn't much but still had like some kana flashcards and a whiteboard and video player. There are of course other jp learning worlds you could use too, ranging from the barebones "every single page of minna no nihongo on a pickup" to worlds with a bunch of nice jp labels for props (and a cinematic 24fps frame rate to match).

>>524315439
>Gremlins
These energetic little fuckers in vrc are either the best entertainment or your worst fucking nightmare

>>524315634
Shit anon you have to share it now that you say that. Please take a picture of your avatar on your wall and share

>>524330636
it would be nice to live in a homogeneous society free of niggers yes

Having a weird as fuck issue and unsure what can cause it. I have a quest version of my main avatar that I made and it's intended to be the fallback for it so questies can see my main avatar (mostly). The thing is I upload it and it gives no errors however when I ask a quest friend what it looks like they say it's "sunk into the ground". The PC one is fine for PC users. I have no idea what can be causing this, everything in unity seems to be okay and doesn't give errors.

What's odd is I tried logging in to VRC on my android phone (so I can see what the avatar looks like for android side) and it looks fine to me, no sinking issue but when others see it they see the issue. So lost.. Halp

>>524332096
they're gaslighting you, its actually completely fine

>>524332240
No, because just for assurance I logged into a completely random as hell public world, approached a quest user and chatted with them a bit (on another avatar) then I asked if they can see this other avatar properly and swapped to my main. They also said it's sunk into the ground

mild criticism to my majong moves feels worse than personal attacks.

>>524333374
You'll get used to it. (not really)

The new vrclight thing being usable for fog particle thingies is very cool as well

>>524329848
I'd be up for a Japanese study instance, depending on time zone.

>>524334257
Someone please host this for SEA hrs I need to learn japanese

>>524323621
>>524329476
>吸毒者
Apparently "drug addict" in Chinese, doesn't really mean anything in jap.

>>524334136
Hmm, nice that there's some docs now https://github.com/REDSIM/VRCLightVolumes/blob/main/Documentation/HowToUse.md . I was going to ask how easy it was to set up, since when I checked a few days ago there was zero documentation.

>>524323621
This anime girl is deceased

>>524334136
Imagine when webm related is used for the next JUSTICE concert by somestupidguy
*CUMS*

>>524332096
I mean... is it sunk into the ground in unity, especially when you run it in Gesture Manager or AV3 Emulator? Have you tried just uploading your quest avatar as a PC avatar and playing it directly? Does the view-ball move down or just the avatar? What do you see if you try to FBT calibrate the quest avatar?

Messing up your transform positions is not going to produce an error, its entirely possible you moved the avatar descriptor gameobject up inside unity then moved the armature or hips down to compensate.

If the quest avatar only fucks up when used as a fallback it probably has a different scale or transform than the main avatar somewhere. You should walk the entire tree of game objects and ensure every transform is the same.

>>524317084
if I can make it I will

>>524329476
please no, I can't pick up Japanese again, I've been trying for 10 years

!!

hi, so, my cord was exploding for my valve index and I bought a new cord, should I just stick the clips where they were before or is that a newb thing? I swear I remember reading that where valve puts them by default makes the cable prone to fail

hey!

tuesday's movie is A Minecraft Movie
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3566834/

Four misfits are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into a bizarre cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home they'll have to master this world while embarking on a quest with an unexpected expert crafter.

starting at 19:00 UTC as usual!

>>524337245
>my cord was exploding
your cord was... exploding?

>>524337453
cute topical image!

>>524337679
Yeah, the valve index cord is known to fuck up on it's own. It'll cause sparkly pixels to appear everywhere and the audio to constantly make popping noises.

>>524326691
You will be awarded an extra bloom map as punishment for negativity

>>524330636
I wish that they would make more VR games. VR titles seem to be mainly western slop tragically. At least we have VRC.

>>524338087
japanese honestly are making game deving mostly for vrc maps I wish I wasn't joking. Even the Primitear guy made vrc maps too.

Calling all Photography Enthusiasts.

/vrg/'s first KINO PHOTO GALLERY EXHIBIT is opening on June 14

Any and all VR photographers are invited to send 6 of their most kino photos or make new ones to send.

The photos we are looking for should be KINO or CINEMA. Contrasted with the Vault which focused on "Memories". This one aims to focus on the ARTISTRY.
Please use this as an opportunity to pick up VR photography as a hobby or aim for perfection as you hone your craft and share in a gallery of fellow photography enthusiasts in VIRTUAL REALITY.

You can send in whatever you want. It'll be compiled into a segment of your own wall as the photographer.
Note images are compressed into 1080p for the map's purposes but you can send 4K images if need be.

(optional) place a title for each of your piece/gallery

Check the world out, this is what we are targeting

>>524338225
That's too bad. Udon is so limited and production values obviously aren't great with VRchat games. More games with actual story, voice acting, gameplay etc. like Gal Gun 2 would be ideal. At least Swery porting Death Game Hotel to PC is something.

>>524337245
Removing the back clip and holding the cable to the back of the headset with one of the velcro loops that comes with the new cable helped for me. Still had to regularly replace cables even after that, but they lasted a little longer.

>>524338042
Oh, that's normal if you aren't keeping your cable in good matter. Here I was thinking it was LITERALLY exploding.

>>524338774
Every single JP VR game has been mediocre, horribly optimised, way too niche to sell or had control scheme made by someone who never played VR. This is also true for most of their VRC games.
JP indies simply lack the talent to make VR game that has any level of polish, big studios don't give shit about VR unless Sony or Facebook pay for it and small studios would rather make some Switch or phone game that will pay the bills than go bankrupt with VR game that will sell 1000 copies if lucky.

One of the lolis fell off.

>Stan Larroque, Founder of XR hardware company Lynx, confirmed in a recent X post the he’s actually seen the design for Valve’s next XR headset.
>Larroque tells Road to VR that Valve Deckard won’t compete against Lynx’s upcoming hardware, as they separately “address two different markets [and] price points.”
>Still, beating around the bush somewhat, Larroque tells us Valve and Lynx “might share suppliers for some components,” which definitely smells like a supply chain leak
>Furthermore, he tells Road to VR that he’s heard that mass production and eventual availability is slated for 2026, which differs slightly from a previous report wherein leaker and data miner ‘Gabe Follower’ alleged Deckard would arrive by the end of 2025, priced at $1,200.

Its a grenade launcher...

I wish the game had a bit more information about the modules and weapons than just the names. i had no idea what types of guns are what.

>>524374003
The grenades are the secondary mode, the primary mode is a rapid fire shard firing gun. Kind of like the light version but doing a lot more damage.

I'm trying out tactical assault vr with friends but I have a really hard time cocking the guns with my index.

Is there a secret to this?

>>524378369
You smash them off during the shakedown, or if you're even more lucky, your car will fall through the map and shake off the doors, bonnet and other flappy bits while falling through space

>>524378449
Just do it?

>>524378449
Make sure you're using the right control. VRFPSes have not standardised on whether trigger or grip should be used for gun controls or ammo so try both.

>>524378449
Try to use the controllers instead of the index to cock the gun?

In my experiecne the hardest thing is connecting the batteries to the terminals since they're done with a spot-welder in factories. If you can fit it, you can get plastic 18650 holders that you can slot them in though. I wonder if there are slim ones.

ATTENTION EVERYONE

Look, i feel you anon. I know you find our latest schizo hilarious, I know your hands are itching to provide a reasonable argument that would prove without a doubt he's mentally unstable. But we all know that, I know that, you know that, even casual lurkers know that. Recently, in a very pathetic way, he admitted that the only thing that keeps him going is the illusion of making a difference, you falling for it and giving him a response is the only thing that gives him any feeling of control over his sad life. He won't give up because you've shown everyone he's a clown, he knows that. Why entertain it, given that he's annoying?

Next time you see our schizo, i'd like to propose the following behavior:
>don't respond
>if you really want to respond, respond with 'shut up nigger'. Just those three words, 'shut up nigger', a magic spell that makes everything better

Let's make thread a better place. Don't feed the troll, he likes being proven wrong, it's still better than being ignored.

>>524389129

Why are you so sensitive. Relax.

And also, you also have to be an absolute retard to think that shit is going to perform well.
You have 0 idea how gpus actually work. You unironically think it's fucking magic or something.

That smoke from example is going to obliterate the performance, I don't even need to see anything to say that. Anyone with a brain would just know.

what bothers me more about this is that your browser is fingerprinted so even if you ban evade and clear cookies and keep the same browser the mods can still track you
they don't act on it so basically the 3d bans are a slap on the wrist because "you're not annoying enough"

>>524391461

Can you theoretically go with fast charging one? How much capacity would you lose?

Why nobody uses 18650 in the same way we use AA batteries, size aside?
Is there some kind of fundamental limitation?

>>524393031
I take it you mean hotswappable. I think it's because when you add hotswappable batteries you need a battery slot, some plastic housing and physical space all to put it in. For example it might not fit in an index controller, or at least it'd have to be bigger. Battery life would go from 8 hours to 20 hours on a single charge but physically they're bigger. They also still need to be recharged. I think it's mostly a space issue though; the little pillow batteries come in a rnage of shapes and can just be slotted into smaller devices.

I'm busy between now and like 1730 UTC

>>524392801
yes but id need to buy and figure out how to work these 'USB power bank modules' they sell on aliexpress that are small enough to fit inside the bobovr puck. i actually have one of those that just take 2 18650 batteries but they too big to fit inside the bobovr puck.

i kinda considered just putting the module thing on the back of my vr headset but i kinda feel like it would be too awkward to switch out batteries while wearing it.


also pic related i spot-welded the 2 new batteries to the small PCB that was on the old ones, connected everything and tested its charging. now im gonna wrap them in tape and put the whole puck back.

>>524396530
I've made custom power banks from the USB modules before and it is basically just wiring it up and that is it. Connect battery to poles and then plug in a USB cable and it charges. Hardest thing is getting the polarity right

uhh is this too much?

>>524396917
light probes are optimization, so probably not? i'd imagine the more the merrier

is it a large map, or did you just set up 50x50cm grid of light probes?

>>524396530
>>524396849
Capacity loss on fast charging units?
I know it's a trade off, but don't know the numbers exactly.
And how fast can you charge theoretically.

>>524396917
Usually no, light probes are cheap to store and evaluate. The new light volume meme might change the calculus some though. The only real answer is to test it of course.

>>524397157
I think I just used some light probe addon to make a big grid of light probes. that covered the entire map

>>524392801
i mean these things. although they have no polarity protection so slapping batteries in there on the back of your head while wearing a headset seems like a bad idea. also they dont fast charge but i think there's fast charging versions of these
>>524396849
one of the main reasons the bobovr pucks work well is polarity is not an issue. and 18650s are too symmetrical to do them by touch reliably.

it would be cool if they made a polarity-agnostic power bank module but its too niche of a use case and a cheap implementation of it would be terrible energy-inefficient i think

>>524397161
you could easily charge em 10W+ per individual 18650 i think they are rated for 4-5A. you mainly lose capacity if you discharge them fast. you can google sony vtc6 discharge curve, some test i found says it gets 11.005Wh at 0.5A and 10.737Wh at 2A so theres some efficiency loss

>>524396917
no, ive had worlds with 10s of thousands of light probes and it had no discernible performance vs having <1000

>>524397565
>you could easily charge em 10W+
Isn't that pretty much nothing? How long will it take to charge one to 80%? Can you do it in 30min?

So where am I supposed to put these VRCLightVolumes in my scene? Same exact coordinates that my lights are at?

>>524398396
Its a lightprobe volume basically, everything inside it will get affected.

>>524398396
https://github.com/REDSIM/VRCLightVolumes/blob/main/Documentation/BestPractices.md says you can generally put them where you put your reflection probe volumes. https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/3d/global_illumination/using_voxel_gi.html might be helpful too, since I think it's essentially the same technique. tl;dr put them where you think you'll have high-frequency lighting changes, don't bother in places where lighting doesn't change.

>>524398396
you make the volumes like you would reflection probes, and then just make sure the volumes are overlapping a bit so shaders can blend between them better.

Cool thanks, what about getting it to work with video player lighting? Or is that not a thing it does?

>>524400523
If your video screen is static baked and emissive (which video player prefabs usually are) it apparently should just work.

>>524401524
Neat, thanks

>>524397161
I never used a fast charging unit so I don't know
with the price I just use more slow charging units

Saw a Mecha game thread on /v/. Mecha games in VR by Meta Quest or Steam?

Steam, always

>>524404938
There's vox machinae

>>524404991
>developer abandoned the steam version 3 years ago to work solely on the quest version instead
heh, nothing personnel...

>>524404938
There's Vox Machinae, which does the slow stompy mechs pretty well; it's unfortunately effectively (dead) multiplayer-only, though they have some sort of single player campaign now too . Iron Rebellion is newer and while I personally haven't tried it, it's apparently good at fast floaty mechs. You can also play MW5 in VR with a mod, though I found the performance bad and the systems a bit too autistic for my taste.

>>524405449
mw5 sucks until you get out of the early game slump and can afford more than 2 medium mechs
then you get okayish challenging missions and can learn the game without stressing too much
its really shit design that fucking up the first 2-3 tutorial missions can set you back so hard in that game

>>524404836
Fast charging a battery reduces its lifespan anyways. I almost always disable fast charging on my devices and sometimes use lower watt chargers if disabling fast charging is not an option.

Deckard 2 in 2032.

>>524404938
MW5+YAML+Von Biomes+TTRulez AI with HOTAS is probably the best for singleplayer+co-op. I tried Vox's singleplayer but it's so basic and NPCs get stuck behind rocks all the time. MP for that is dead too tragically.

>>524405665
Just use career mode so you can skip the lame tutorial missions and start with more than the javelin and fucked up centurion. You can still play things like the DLC story missions that way.

>>524394565

Right now, light volumes are cool, but they're volumetric light all around you.

I've experimented with giving them more directionality by using the original world lighting as the shadowed side's color, but nothing has been a perfect solution. It's hard to derive directions from the light in many cases to generate a consistently good-looking light and shadow.

WIP to make it not feel like all the lighting comes from all sides.

>>524418643
based and repairpilled

In many cases the light wraps around you in a way that doesn't feel great because the volume data isn't perfect for telling you where the light is coming from.

Here's an example of the general toon approach so far vs an attempt at more directionality. For a lot of anime-style models, this wouldn't work well because it'd give you more of a 3d feel than you'd generally like, but it's a step in the right direction.

Someone complained I was posting trash,and realistically they're right I should probably post here

>Unironically using chatgpt for pavlov question

>>524426179
I remember asking it out of curiosity and it started hallucinating game mechanics that don't exist like using full body tracking to your advantage to lean around corners.

>>524426009
Trades seem more likely at high ping too. At least that's how it feels to me when I play on NA.
But this is mostly a moot point because the effect is still somewhat subtle at 96 ping or whatever he had. 150+ is where it gets particularly noticable and when SEAniggers show up the netcode might as well be a dice roll at times.

Even low ping ~24 still has a noticable peeker effect that punishes holding predictable angles so there's no latency where it feels well synced.
Rubberbanding is both a potential advantage and disadvantage in Pavlov but doesn't happen on stable connections or until much higher latency.
Hit reg issues we all suffer from when there's a high ping difference; Gem used to record the stats and the more NAs played the more hit reg related errors spiked for everyone.

>>524427513
The stats are still recorded:

>copy SteamVR Windows install somewhere in the prefix (ie: C/ root) under appid 2467050's pfx
the SteamVR Windows install has paths the tool is hardcoded to expect, as it does not think the Linux SteamVR install is valid; this enables a few of the tool's features like refresh mode swapping and brightness control
that said, if you're in 75hz mode on the device you can just pick modes via an env var on an Envision profile much more easily:
>XRT_COMPOSITOR_DESIRED_MODE=0 for 75hz
>XRT_COMPOSITOR_DESIRED_MODE=1 for 90hz
I don't know why no one tried this before, but turns out it that's all we needed
its not used for that much configuration overall, but might be handy with the IPD slider on the 2/2e models and firmware updates
removes another reason I even had my Windows install laying around...

>>524430250
Thank you Genius. Now can you write a guide on getting Steam VR games to work on Intel GPUs please

>>524430727
>Intel GPUs
does mesa not work for them?
i only have a weak intel dGPU in my server so I've never used one for VR so i'm not sure where it currently breaks down (if at all)

has there ever been anything done or anything that can be done about the annoying thing about tundra trackers triggering steam vr every time they are plugged in? shit's annoying.
>take shit off to go to bed, plug trackers in, have to wait fort steamvr to start up so i can shut it down

from a leddit post referencing https://forum.tundra-labs.com/t/steamvr-auto-starts-when-charging-trackers/92 which is a dead link for me
my SteamVR JSONs dont seem to have this but perhaps I disabled it in the GUI long ago? my trackers dont seem to turn SteamVR on when they charge and go into the "Active" mode with a green LED

Pfft if only he opened blender and put a sailor outfit on.

Alright, assuming the next valve headset comes out and it's a perfect 2026 all-rounder. We're not going to elaborate on the details. They also make a game that's a 10/10. What happens next?

https://vrch.at/cndqrrwh

>>524433884
I mean, it'd be great for people like us, but it'll be too expensive for most people to care, and they'll all just complain that the game is a VR game instead of a flat one.
They'd have to basically give the headset away and release an entire VR Orange Box for it to change much of anything, and even then I'm still not sure it'd convince people that aren't already at least somewhat interested in VR.

>>524435051
Left4Dead 3 or an orange box but the games are playable in both VR and flat would be ideal. Flat players seeing VR users waving, taunting and flipping them off will at the very least tempt them into getting VR in a way that TV ads and VR only games can't. It also augments the VR playerbase so one guy in a friend group buying into VR can still play with his friends.

>>524436173
Playing phasmo with flatties is always a good experience. Never got so much attention online before.

>>524436173
I played The Forest with some flatlets and it did impress them seeing me moving my hands. It was short lived though because the controls were so bad I couldn't really do anything properly.

Orion requires silicon carbide in order to achieve its 70° FOV, and supply chains need to be made for it

They will be launching proper smart glasses with the wristbands for $1k-1.5k at the end of this year though. This is what a lot of that Reality Labs money is going to

>>524437226
The thing facebook is going for with Orion is actual 3d through the glasses - these appear to just be a 2d "flat" screen through the lenses. Not quite the same thing, but I think still has a good use case

intel arc drivers don't natively support Steam VR right now. Steam VR will NOT detect a VR headset connected to the computer with intel arc gpus.
that's where you come in. you need to find a way to hack in VR driver support for intel arc gpus.

>>524446415
That's just SteamVR problem, Monado with OpenComposite works fine with Vive on Arc and obviously anything wireless will work with any GPU that has HW encoder (which Arc obviously has).

How is VR doing nowadays? I recently booted up my vive with index controllers to play Halo and Quake VR and I'm curious if anything major has come out recently. I remember when Quest became locked down I was worried this would really harm VR as a whole

as an adult man i’ve never played roblox, should i try the VR version ? seems like player count is crazy high

How in the hell do I enable Developer Mode on a secondary Quest 2 profile so I can share my sideloaded apps with my family? I've done everything the guides say but the Meta Horizon app doesn't have Developer Options for his account.

It's slowly chugging along. Lots of really good single player stuff but the multiplayer focused games are either dead, small and dedicated, or quest exclusive and full of kids. For the most part it takes a fair bit of searching to find that killer game you have been looking for. Most of them already exist but are barely advertised or mentioned. The hard part is finding someone to play with. Even here.
You were right about the quest harming vr but it was because of the parents buying it for their 10 year old kids, not so much because of hardware constraints. Especially now that the quest 3 is old hat.

oh nevermind hitting cats 'fix model' button twice just, fixed everything, neat!

now i just need to find the textures.....

>>524477526
One of the buttons at the top right of the viewer should be material options, they'll be orbs, if the model was set up properly one of them will show you the textures

>>524477748
these? i'm trying to export an alternate skin model of the railgunner from risk of rain 2 because i couldn't find a model resource online, but i can't seem to find the models actual textures, or maybe i'm just using asset studio gui wrong

Has anyone used the Standable mixed tracking features?
I see they have a fallback system that defaults tracking to estimation when real trackers get occluded, and I'd like to know if it's actually worth it before buying it.

>>524478612
Yeah it'd be one of those, might have the word material in it, wait some number of seconds after clicking to see if it loads in.
I don't quite remember the way to recover the textures so hopefully someone else pops up, but I'm sure google can help you faster

>>524500064
>It is dark and foreboding.
That's kind of the point. It's supposed to have the same kind of atmosphere as your average resident of "The City" in BLAME! would experience... if they lived next to a bar/nightclub like the one I plan on adding later.

>You should make the window in the pool area huge so I can see the cool megastructures in all directions.
Okay, I have an idea of how that can be done, though the result may not look as "clean". I also need to add structures to hide the "seams" in my build.

Has anyone used vroid for vrc here?

>>524463254
Completely dead outside of VRChat

>>524463254
Growth has almost stopped. Doesn't mean stuff isn't coming out, we have a trickle of new games, new headsets, and VRC is still highly active.
Especially right now there hasn't been a decent headset released in like 1-2 years (quest 3) and GPUs needed to power good PCVR have vanished from existence. The GPU situation hurts pretty bad.

>>524504548
If you really think like that, you should look around a bit.

Oh right the vertigo 2 DLC came out and was pretty awesome. Pretty short and fairly hard but it was great.
The reviews show that people got filtered hard though (the final boss was way more difficult than modern games usually are, felt like a hard mode)

>>524504794
I think you're the one that needs to look around a bit.
PCVR is COMPLETELY dead.
Only Questslop exists now and most of the titles are indeed slop.

Reminder that this is one of the most retarded normalfag generals on the site and any opinions or interpretations of reality can be freely discarded.

i love VR hardware and software discussion!

>>524504548
>>524504769
Personally, I think the multiplayer games would be more successful if they either made the characters look better instead of using those ugly-ass unity asset flips for character models or if they allowed you to import a custom model into the game as your player model, like the ones that allow you to import VRM models.

Regarding subjective measures, pick a meaningful measure or set of measures and then discuss that. IE games and hardware that came out recently.

arken age was good

>>524505317
>import VRM models
red flag alert

>>524505024
It was dogshit. Bullet sponge braindead enemies and garbage weapons.
This section specifically >>524505339 and the boss which came right after were so bad I almost ragequit right there. Simply dogshit.

>>524505213
Reminder you actually have to be genuinely delusional to consider the state of VR as being in a good place right now.
>b-b-but what about those two or three singleplayer VR games that came out in the past 4 years that are good? that PROVES that VR is thriving right?
No

>>524505317
Oh multiplayer games in general? Dance dash allowed that for a while, bonelabs lets you do that, uh primitier lets you do that too. Problem with VRM + Multiplayer is that everyone needs to download and run the content to see it all which is a nightmare for content control.

>>524505619
>I was filtered by a hard videogame
It's okay, one of my complaints was that it was too hard as well. Still beat it though.

>>524505675
The entire state of the video games industry has been a disaster for almost 20 years now.

>>524505675

>>524505675
VR is definitely dying but there's still some stuff to do while it is struggling to live.

>>524505741
I wasn't filtered. I killed that boss first try. Hitting every single bullet with the garbage wobbly weapons and just waiting for your ammo to respawn is simply not fun.

recently got a quest 3, upgraded from the original vive. loving it so far

is there any better way to goon on this thing nowadays other than watching old trashy webxr content through a fucking web browser, or having to pay for porn subscriptions on play'a? finding the old dead /gif/ threads with vr-webbums is hard enough

>>524506024
most people goon in vrchat

>>524505910
Yeah the start is the weakest section. The reason I liked the DLC is because it gives you tools and movement abilities to actually make gameplay more engaging and fun later. Like a reflective thing that adds an extra element, or the grappling hook that gives you the mobility you need to make effective use of your short range weapons

I had a lot of fun collecting the rings because it was like 3d metroid and the challenge was movement + tool usage more than just shoot at thing enough until it died

>>524505675

100 players for a multiplayer game is literally on the verge of death. If you think that's fine and healthy you are delusional.

pavlov pc fags would rather see their game die than turn on crossplay

>>524507194
It only has crossplay with PSVR.

>>524507350
that one is butchered though

>>524507194
Even if dave did add crossplay, it'd just extend the inevitable when there's no growth in players

VR doesn't grow because we don't have cool games.
The retarded crayon-eating copes only make things worse when they try to push lame games as "good".

>>524507379
The main reason it lost players was the 18 month hiatus and complete workshop nuke for the Unreal 5 migration.

>>524507819
If cool games necessitates high-end graphics and interactions, then this industry was never meant to exist outside of sucking on the teat of corporate charity.

If you think of "high-end graphics" when you hear "cool", you should kill yourself.
When you push for graphics, you get shit like alyx, which gets mogged by a mod of a flat game which got released 15+ years earlier by the same devs.

Devs castrated themselves and are afraid to have fun.

Or you need to elaborate on what you mean by "interactions" further.

>>524510605
that fucker didn't even implement eye tracked foveated encoding for the pfd as well even though it passes eye tracking data to your pc which would work with msfs and dcs quad views
what a fucking joke

>>524511267
gay goblin is lazy greedy nigger
it's not something new

>>524511229
"High and-graphics and interactions" was one thing

>>524472576
i would do truly terrible things to r

>>524511480
What do you mean by interactions? Physics?

>>524511564
I'm referring to stuff like Alyx's famous bottle liquid physics or how the characters in the last of us close their eyes when you shine the flashlight in their direction. Not things that are fundamental to gameplay or enhance it.

>>524512112
But that's soul and doesn't take a lot to add. And stuff like that definitely enchant the game. And also make for easy shilling webms.
You need to reconsider, you are wrong on this one.

Can you really watch a video like this and say "interactions" shouldn't be in the game because it's not fundamental to gameplay?

All you had to do is dodge all the jumping bots and then fight the boss which was pretty satisfying and badass when you get the hang of its movements.

I think you're just getting filtered by good games, get retard angry and start calling them "slop" or "dogshit"

I DONT CARE NIGGER IM HERE TO PLAY FUN GAMES AND VR GAMES ARE FUN
FAGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!

>>524505754
There it is.

>>524506796
Fine and healthy. Cope and seethe. Plenty people enjoy a fun game called, "Pavlov". Plenty other people are doing someone, or something, else. If you boughted then enjoy with all the rest of the boughteders. I enjoy VR errday.
>>524506613
Exactly. frfr

>>524516508
You don't understand. You need to have tens of thousands of concurrent players otherwise the game is dead and you aren't allowed to play it.

My argument: Mayonnaise
Your argument: The escalator

>>524516852
Retarded ESL
Clearly there isn't "plenty people enjoy a fun game called, pavlov" when you're sitting at 100 players

You can keep being in denial about the state of the industry and keep insisting that 100 is a healthy number for a multiplayer game, but it's just cope. Everyone knows it's cope.

>>524517067
>>524517282
Nah. Game, including Shack, is pretty healthy. You just gotta higher your expectations of the industry. The industry delivered multiple goggles, games, and ancillary equipment during and post a time when all kinds of bad things happened to Earth. Even today we are not sufficiently prepared for another worldwide coof outbreak. One hundred people enjoying Pav? When so much work must be done? You and I can hardly afford to invest in the industry. Waaay too much work to be done, and you're not satisfied with what population the industry has served you?
"About as healthy as can be" should be your attotude. Resign yourself to enjoying with plenty people, because one hundred people are a lot of people when there is so much work to be done.

>>524518350
cope and deluded
And I'm not even that schizo, VR is clearly not healthy.

>>524518350
Absolute delusion, it almost reads like a YukiGPT post.

The virgin critic vs the chad appreciator

>>524518623
There's a difference between appreciating what little we have in our little unhealthy niche and being completely deluded and out of your mind and thinking everything is fine. I greatly enjoy VR constantly and will keep playing it until there's nothing left.

>>524518623
you retards really can't meme
can't you say something like "virgin with high standards" vs "chad the crayon eater"
at least it's funny

>>524518623
>the chad appreciator when he realizes there is nothing new coming to appreciate and the old things he appreciated are going to EOS soon because of player count

>>524518867
>he actually critiqued the meme
