Trying to host a VRChat game event this Friday at around 20:00 UTC
Basically we'll go through game worlds, spending 15-90 mins depending on the quality of the game and what the player interest looks like and hopefully having fun and discovering new games.
Should have a decent amount of worlds prepared but do feel free to suggest or drop a portal to a world that you've been wanting to try.

Running Pacific Coast Highway in Assetto Corsa tonight at 8PM ET (in ~9h).
Car list is in pic related, let me know if you have anything else you want to run.

Its gonna be all rounder downgrade from G2 for PCVR racing

>>554660248
It's fine on a Quest 3 with the right settings, shouldn't be a problem on the Frame unless Valve seriously messes something up.

EU Assetto Corsa: European Racing club
Race 113

19:00 UTC 20:00 CET, 26th of January

From the simplest real car, we're going to one of the most brutal cars of our time. We're racing CYBERTRUCKS at Tor Poznan. 0-100 km/h in 2.6 seconds, insane torque, 4 wheel steering and nonlinear fly by wire steering. Weird ass 3000 kilograms truck with insane characteristics. Afterwards, we'll take it and some other fast cars to Latvia, Riga, for a test drive and exploration.

60 minute practice
12 minutes qualifiers
11 laps race

If you just bought Assetto - grab Assetto Corsa Content Manager - a better launcher and mod manager: https://assettocorsa.club/content-manager.html To install mods: just drag and drop zip files from mega onto the Content Manager windows and click on the hamburger menu on top right. Highly recommend installing stable custom shader patch and 7-zip plugin in Content manager.

For communication we'll use mumble at voice.vrg.party port 64738, as it doesn't need any registrations or logins.

>>554669153
VD at 400Mbps looks fine to me in motion, a similar bitrate with foveated encoding should be a good bit better, but that does depend on Valve getting it right and I don't currently think the Quest version of Steam Link does.
>>554669239
Yeah, the stuff that bothers me the most is unfortunately a problem on my wired headsets too. PSVR2 is still my go-to for sims right now for a few reasons though.

>>554672404

I wonder how much the chinesium ones will last. The original sticks lasted just about one year of very low use.

>>554659380
Lower resolution, maybe worse audio, (G2 has the index over the ear), similar FoV, higher latency, compression artifacts (might be not bad with foveated compression), most likely better lenses, being tied to battery time, most likely better balance.

Going from G2 it'll be a sidegrade, maybe even downgrade visually...

>>554672780
Current SteamLink is beta test for Frame. If you have eyetracking, you basically already have the frame experience. It gets better when you reduce the size of foveated window.

Is it actually stable for you? I remember people praising it a while back, but the only anon that I know for sure has tried it recently was having the same stability issues I was having on my Quest 3.

>>554674135
I only tested it a bit, because 99% of the time I use a proper wired headset, so I can't comment on that much.

>check last thread

wait, are we all ex-/xivg/ lalafell?

Really wish Friend by friend wasn't on Valentines day. I might not be able to go.

>>554668145
>>554660335
Wait a mimi, didn't the frame have an option for wired power?
>>554668958
Why though? It's lighter. Not a face furnace. Will run better.

are you betraying us for a girl anon, is that what you're trying to say? What happened to bros before hoes? She might have said yes even though she may spend an evening with you in a fancy restaurant (you're paying) you're just one of her options. And what if you advanced the relationship from there onwards? Would she allow you your silly VR time with your silly VR friends that say slurs and have gay ass sex?

No of course not. Think about it anon. She doesn't love you. We do.
Choose us.

>>554678125
>If this is true then I should really get a goymax but I wanted to watch animey and play HOMM 3 in VR flat too doe...

what's stopping you?

>Res isn't lower?
Panel resolution is the same but Frame FoV is bigger, so pixels are stretched more

>>554672874
>>554668958
G2-chud here, the Frame has the same resolution per eye as the G2, plus it has a refresh rate of 144 instead of 90, a wider FoV, lenses that won't get blurry if you look in the corner of the screen, its wireless, and it's controllers aren't dogshit.
(also WMR, the software needed to even turn these headsets on, is shutting down)
I don't see it as anything other than a direct upgrade.

>>554678125
>Waait didn't Valve solve the compression issue allegedly or is that disinfo?
It needs eyetracking. The quest 3 does not have eye tracking.

>>554679768
If you go to SteamLink settings and shrink down the foveated window, you'll notice how in the middle of the screen compression artifacts get significantly reduced, at a cost of very low resolution outside of that small window.

>>554680106
>significantly reduced
>not eliminated
oh nyo

>>554678125
>didn't Valve solve the compression issue allegedly or is that disinfo?
Foveated encoding should help by basically using more of the bitrate for the part of the image you're looking at, and people that have gotten to demo it (in a controlled environment) claim it works pretty well.
As always though, I'd wait for (slightly) longer term impressions after people have their hands on the final version in real world scenarios to say for sure.
>I wanted to watch animey and play HOMM 3 in VR flat too
You can do that just fine now with any headset unless you mean without connecting to a PC.
Could do it on a Quest 3 standalone already too, but there's way more hoops to jump through.

>>554679737
Latency?
I use a Q3 and with:
*Low bitrate,
*120 Hz and FPS,
*No video buffering on VD,
*USB Eth dongle or reverse tethering
I can see the virtual wheel lag behind the real one when I do fast wobble movements. Once upon a time I had triples and I wasn't able to notice any lag.

>>554661046
Slight update to the car list, so you'll need to grab a couple extra cars if you already downloaded mods

>>554659380
yeah we dont really care man
you've been making these posts for like 3 years now
either shit or get off the toilet.

has anyone here been having lag issues with VRchat lately? even in the fucking optimized box i'll be standing there with only me in the world and my FPS just drops to like 20-50 FPS for like a minute straight. I cleared my cache and updated my Graphics card so i don't know wtf is causing it.

OG G2 GOAT here and >>554679737 isn't me.

>>554679397
What's stopping me is Pimax being Pimax.
>>554680819
>>554679768
Maaaan I really don't wanna wait for reviewers and I don't even trust them. Surely compression wont be that bad driving at 300 km/h in my poopra on SRP.
>>554684027
You absolutely do care and it's your obligation to assist me in making an educated purchase. Especially since it was YOU last time that told me to get a G2 over the superior Index.

>>554672754
Fuck.. I hope nobody heard my asscheecks clapping

where volleyball?
where poker?

>>554686541
>Surely compression wont be that bad driving at 300 km/h in my poopra on SRP.
I honestly couldn't tell you. It shouldn't be too bad, but the frame is more or less pushing something that's never been polished before. It kind of works on the qpro but all qpro users are hopeless vrc addicts who've never touched a racing sim so I have no idea if it works foveated with that or not.

OG G2 goat here, forgot to say that I'm trans. Dunno if that matters.

>>554686541
>Surely compression wont be that bad driving at 300 km/h in my poopra on SRP.
I did that on my Q3 and it's fine. The game is sharp the entire time and there's lots of detail so it's hard for the encoder to mush the roads or w/e.

>>554687045
We can tell, sister, don't worry.

>>554686882
I put on my trackers and headset for nothing...

>>554687632
Open the instance and run it!

>>554687125
But lil bro was also talmbout latency. Isn't the Frame on a new wifi protocol or some shi? Mabe the Q3 is just aids ridden a d the Frame wont have the same issue.
>>554686918
Yeah on that note every reviewer or feedback giver is a vrctranny and nobody will give an objective simracing perspective opinion. Every so called simracer is a boomer that can't tell 30 from 60 fps.

What fucking alternatives are there though? VR is still a meme so maybe the winning move is to stick with a meme from 4chan (valve) over a meme from 9gag (everyone else).

>>554675956
Truly the best race, the other xivg coomers go elsewhere.

anyone wants to mahjong in 30 mins? need 2 more

>>554687967
>Not playing hyur

>>554687914
volley or poker?

>>554688096
I dunno whichever you want to play. I would but I don't want to play either.

>>554670767
Not great, you can usually get two crystals though so you're best off just grinding on the easiest difficulty with throwing daggers and a bow or crossbow. Down for some more dungeon running tonight I've been slacking on upgrading the exosuit.

>>554687125
Even at 450 mpbs set in VD I see the road a bit mushy, when I first started I thought it was the anisotropic filter giving up but nope, it's just compression.
Don't get me wrong, it's fine for me since I try to focus on judging the distances rather than using the asphalt texture for reference points. But it does happen that it looks mushed. And I don't race fast cars.

G2 GOAT here and I don't know what to do bros.

I got drunk as shit on my birthday and drove to t
his lil forest after the bar at 4 AM to catch a vibe. I was sitting on a log and this cat came running at me out of nowere and jumped in my lap and started purring. I was like shiiit might as well take it home so it doesn't freeze. Now I have a free cat excepy I'm allergic and can't let her in my room, so she just stands outside meowing all the time until i hold her like baby and she starts purring and calms down then repeat. Can't find a home for her either. She's just too attached and can't stay alone...

Except that one time, but no one saw us so it doesn't count.

i love mouseanon btw. in fact, i love every anon that plays into their character animal and stuff. mouse anon squeaking and cat anons meowing. dog anons barking. its my favorite trope. its very cute.

thank you for reading my blog.

one of my trackers is saying it's charged right when i plug it in and then will cut out at 3 bars, like it's not reporting the charge state properly, any way to fix it?

>>554697260
I prefer when my vr friends act like real actual human beings and not like simplified anime stereotypes.
If you want to play a character instead of just being yourself, go join one of the dozens of VRC RP groups.

>>554698103
if you aren't constantly in character, you're just some normie alcoholic

>>554698103
nobody says they dont act like actual human beings. we still talk you know. mouse anon only squeaks when you headpat him. that sort of stuff.

>>554698103
>I use VR to experience real life

>>554698059
Would probably have to crack it open and replace the battery

>>554698213
>>554698454
VRC is unironically the only place where I can socialize with the mask completely off. It's real life where I have to play the character.

>>554697260
squeek squeek? :3

>>554698536
well can't afford that, i guess no more fbt for me

>>554698647
>mask completely off
I doubt it. Everyone would hate you.

>>554698717
New batteries cost $20, can you not afford that?

>>554698912
if it's anything like replacing shit in index controllers it's not just the part required.

>>554699081

You just need the battery and it swaps right out. It's fiddly to get inside, look up some vids (the pics vanished).

>play a character instead of just being yourself
I should try this since I'm ridiculously boring
or just be hyper

>>554700356
One of my advice staples is to tell people to not be themselves. Being yourself is what got you here, be someone you like.

>>554700356
Better to be your genuine boring self than someone you're not anon. Faking that hyper energy will burn you out with time.

Nigger I got here because I think virtual reality is cool, dunno why you showed up

>>554672798
To be fair, he did consistently avoid variations of the same shit, and something significantly different seemingly only released after his death. Well the second to last one also looks like it might have had something going for it, but he was probably far too old to enjoy it by then.

>>554698103
You say that, but I'm so used to meowing that it just happens naturally now. I have to make a conscious effort not to meow.

It's obvious the more time passes that I don't belong here anymore, which sucks because I don't know where else to go.

>>554702015
What makes you say that?

>>554658505 (OP)
do we have a group? surprised it isnt in the OP

>>554702083

>>554702827
Nta but how did you deal with the textures and UVs? I've been wanting to do this, but the headache of that is intimidating me.

>>554702081
I'm not sexy, or cute. Not as in avatar, as in personality. I don't make meows, squeeks, I don't post ":3", I don't wiggle my hips when I get headpat. I don't ERP or add Marshmellow to my avatar's tits. Nor do I have any desire to.
As time goes on, the people who don't go for the cute or sexy vibes seem to be more of the minority, so I feel more and more awkward about being here.

NA anime tonight at 10 pm est in vrchat

>>554703354
im just kind of lurking in here but im surprised a group on 4chan is like that. i guess /trash/ is a thing so i shouldnt be too surprised.

>>554703617
It used to be much more varied personality types, but a lot of them formed into their own groups and left /vrg/ entirely.
One example is we used to have a ton of more dudebro anons with Halo armor models, but most of them left for their own community and the ones who stayed turned into anime girls or eboys.

>>554702015
This was me when I was somewhere else, then I realized I no longer belonged anywhere at all, and now I just lurk places I never much cared about to avoid getting too invested or concerned about not belonging.

The trash meet?
I killed them.
I killed them all.
And not just the gooners, but the moviewatchers, and wallflowers too.

>>554703308
I redid all the UVs by hand so that I could re-use a single texture. For most models this really won't be as bad or as much work as you think.

>>554706381

those avatars make my lightsaber come out too

I've been thinking. I wonder if I should go out of my way and do a wingman service for newfags and/or wallflowers. No adding or dropping an instance here. I'll just say a world here and put down a recognizable instance name as the meet-up. Then we go to explore the public social scenes, study them and see what we can make out of it, I'll probably pull a bit out of my ass. I'll be honest this is just an excuse for me to re-enact the cliche of geeks going to clubs from cheesy 2000s teen movies or having dudes pick up chicks in the beach in anime. We'll probably fail and look like losers but at least it'll be a funny memory

vr made me start to assess whether or not I would enjoy kissing most men I walk by

Oh hell yeah, I love a good bit of spoonfeeding (god knows I need it)

Anything planned for tomorrow? Getting wasted so might as well hop on

ever have your avatar ripped?

>>554718478
Yep happened to me before when ripping was rampant back in the days

>>554711838
I'd also be down, I'm picturing like 8 retards all in a line like they're on a field trip. Sounds fun

>>554718740
did you ever actually see it around afterwards though?

>>554718931
thankfully not. Was just in the ripperstore website that anyone can download

>>554719010
what, in one of the forum threads? or is there a gallery im unaware of?

>>554718478
No, but if someone did I wouldn't care, it's just polygons. I'm not attached to it unlike certain faggots here

>>554719110
back in the days ripperstore is just a gallery website with links similar to booth with all the avatars from vrchat that went to a public world since it's so easy to rip and download avatars then

>>554718478

:: /vrg/ Vault 2025 | January 31, 2026 ::
Take your time to look at your screenshot folder of 2025 and reminisce through your memories with friends and anons alike. Submit your favorite memories of 2025 in VR! It can be pictures, videos or items - so if you have some spare moments this weekend, get through your screenshot folder and send them in!
Up to 3 happy memories per month so let's go down memory lane together anon. (soft rule)

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

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

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

FOR ITEMS: send the mesh (no udon please unless you know what you are doing, cause there won't be time to fix it, it will just be shoved into the LOD slot)
Any item that you want to place in the /vrg/ vault 2025 is welcome!

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

FOR WORLDS: Send the wrld_id of something you made this year

Important Dates:
Jan 24 - Final day of submission
Jan 28 - Late submission (non-optimal spots in the map)
Jan 31- /vrg/ VAULT Exhibition

weed anyone?

Friendships mixed and matched, movin and groovin

5 minutes at a time with another anon in a room 1 on 1 while everyone gets shuffled round robin style until everyone in the room gets matched up.

I'm confident enough now with the prefabbing workflow that we can open this submission up to any anon who wish to make a room for the event~
If you wish to make a room please use this template
New FBF Reference Room https://www.mediafire.com/file/07q9k5orfifl7d3/FBF_Reference_Room.unitypackage/file
Note: Rooms when uploaded to vrc standalone needs to be <=10mb~

Deadline Feb 10 (This would be 3 weeks from now)
Think of it like a worldjam

For this year we'll be having the THEME: Motion
(Prominent motions in the new rooms)

do you have to use the stupid graph editor thing to make interactive worlds? or can you actually write things?

>>554725338
Udon# is their locked down C#. lot of stuff works but some it doesn't and good luck figuring out what does.

>>554725338
No need for that graph thing anymore. You can just write it up using udonsharp

Describe to me what you want to happen and we may already have an UDON code for it

It's rare for valentines day to fall on exactly a saturday. 1/7th chance

>>554705971
No one fucks in the trash instance.

>>554728781
It's retarded to not just switch it to friday, unless there's some big reason that it has to be Saturday. Why would you want to gimp your attendance just because you did it on Saturday last time

>>554711838
roughly when is this happening though.. like today? This week? This weekend?

>>554729065
Friday gimps attendance a lot more I think. Saturday is just the perfect time for events that allows all timezones and work schedules to work with it

>>554730050
Why does friday gimp it more? What happens on friday to split people away that could be compared to valentines day?

>>554730248
Friday usually have people tired from work so less receptive for events

>>554730927
That doesn't seem like as strong of a reason to me, but I could be wrong. Is there really that much of a majority of anons that work on fridays?

>>554731198
Contrary to popular belief, most of us here are working adults. Doubly so in a VR thread where the barrier to entry is a steep priced headset and PC

>>554731357
but there isn't a significant increase in the amount of anons who work on fridays versus anons who work on saturdays

>>554731523

Still figuring out my schedule, bud. This could just be a trial run really. I'll just drop a name of world, probably a dead world with no public instance but mine, no links though. Maybe around this Friday 10pm EST. I'll keep it short like maybe 2-3 hours so people can have time to catch up to bigger instances. Although I'd like expectations to not be high because I'm just bored and want to fuck around a bit. Seeing newfags and wallflowers open up is just a bonus

Was doing a gnome run on Alyx and somehow this happened

>>554740425
somehow? You placed him there you freak

>>554740425
Played Alyx for a bit and kinf of confused on how to 'propermy" play it. Trying to move without teleporting is more immersive but it"s so slow and makes avoiding enemies in coridors impossible so I just run out of ammo. But if I just abuse the teleport chase sequences just kind of become a breeze

>>554729065
>gimp your attendance
LMAO, do you really think the people here have girlfriends?

>>554743808
Superior nippon steel folded over a thousand times will win.

>>554743051
I never ran out of ammo and i played on hardest difficulty

are you sure you even hit the enemy?

>>554743051
it's not just you
the ammo spawns are dynamic suck donkey dick
and yes teleport movement trivializes the game

>>554743051
i beat it by only redirected walking. 16km total of walking. I think i did it on hard. wouldn't recommend because it breaks the game a lot of the time.

Put on my quest 3 and one screen looked like this, after restarting it disappeared and for a few hours of playing it didn't show up again, should I be concerned?

>>554704308
>didn't kill the joomers
I knew it. I knew they couldn't be trusted.

>>554743051
>just run out of ammo
Keep searching around. You might have missed some in drawers or benches or corners. Sometimes you have to get creative and snatch a mag off their belt.
But if you want a behind the scenes spoiler: ammo spawns based on how much you have in your inventory. You can't run out. It'll just magically appear on benches and in drawers, even ones you've already searched, when you're below the threshold. You can edit the threshold but it's deliberately put there to add tension to fights and make each bullet you find something that actually matters. Generally you will never max out on ammo and most of the time you'll never get a full mag of shotgun ammo, but there will always be some to find of you run out.

>>554748974
nah probably some software glitch

>>554725338
>>554725683
locked down is misleading. it's super gimped. no custom classes (everything must be udonbehavior scripts, you can write the classes but attempting to construct will give a nebulous "unimplemented" error), list support abysmal (no add/remove operators so you have to use static sized arrays and do all the work manually), the list goes on. the reason is that isn't that they "locked it down", it's that udon# isn't real C#. it is transpiled into what the nodegraph uses so they have to manually implement every feature they want to "unlock". I hate this language

>>554743051
Stop missing. There's enough ammo.
Also yes, valve completely fucked up the design of the game, the game was designed completely around teleport move and teleport move sucks donkey dick so if you try and walk around it breaks the entire design of every single combat area.

>try to make a fun mission
>immediately go for escort mission
Give up.
Here's your mission:
>assault secret base hidden in mountains
>naval launch
>enemy aewac patrolling in loop around the mountain protected by interceptors
>side of the mountain with the secret base has a bunch of sam sites and a radar station that directs them
>first priority it to take out the aewac to secure the approach
>then have to stay below the ground radar station and weave through gullies to avoid the sam sites
>have to actually find the secret base instead of having a marker
>blow up base
>naval counter attack spawns to attack your aircraft carrier
>have to weave your way back to through the mountains or just have used a long range gps guided missile from a safe location once you located it to get back and defend the ships in time
There are some kind of radar+missile trucks I forget what they're called but the missile they launch is unreasonably fast and I think they have a 5 as their RWR icon. Those might be better than sam+radar for the mountain side to really lock down flying outside of the gullies on the base side of the mountain. Either way steps should be taken to make sure just blowing up the radar and sams isn't really an option for the base assault part.

>>554757065
>then have to stay below the ground radar station and weave through gullies to avoid the sam sites
Oh so its just top gun maverick?
Your mission proposal sounds great, but that sounds like a whole ass campaign. Then again, some of the missions ive played were pretty epic in size.
The cursed stewart island map i got has many spiky mountains, but not many swooping valleys.
Maybe instead of a campaign i should just do a grand mission, with added random factors for replayability.

oh god. What are you trying to do exactly? Maybe I have an udon code that can already do it

if it's just an animation trigger thing I have an animation trigger already
You're strong for even using udongraph lol, udonsharp is so much better these days specially with AI assistance.

Networked animation trigger with 30s cooldown controlled by a boolean. I'll try and convert it into udon sharp manually.

Never mind I'm not digging through the Udon Type Exposure Tree for a toggle especially trying to figure out what the different procedure and type names are for the animations and udon behaviour. Have a cleaned up graph instead without the log spam.

At least until the copper shortage that fucker will likely prompt

>>554782446
2.0s are a bit heavier and bulkier, and old ones are likely to have worn batteries, which is kind of a concern because 2.0s only have a 3.5-4 hour battery life when fresh out of the factory any way. You can replace the internal batteries and use external batteries to keep them going as long as you want though.

Tourney has begun, all my friends are now my enemies...

I'm going to play some rounds of walkabout in VRG. Feel free to join at any time or don't.

Hello, today at 19:00CET (1h from now) I will host a "YosaVR" dancing session.
>What is YosaVR to begin with?
"YosaVR" is the combination of "Yosakoi" and VR. Yosakoi is a (modern) japanese folk dance style, which often relies on using accessories.
With "YosaVR", we aim to actively learn dance routines; first we'll learn some actual yosakoi routines, but I'm planning to eventually mix it with other types of dances/songs later on.
>What does it looks like?
Here are some videos from when I was training it back in May:
Easy song: https://streamable.com/0wxl7i
Mid song: https://streamable.com/91lp9t
Difficult one (no video editing): https://streamable.com/4b02tr
>What to know? How will we train?
When I tried to host it earlier this year, I made this document:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m6DHeP7rt538M18IdRz6fAGeD_hIQvGJgBc7CtrWpTo/edit?usp=sharing
Even if some infos might be outdated now, if you are interested in the project I recommend you to read it still.
This time I'll try to also host it regularly on Thursdays while keeping the "dojo format". In my opinion it is much harder than both PyPy or ParaPara, so if you want to become good at it, you will most likely need to train outside of the regular Thursday instances.
>What to expect for today?
Main objective is to keep on training "Power": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tpwyBEhPeE
Then if we have time, we'll start seeing the new song "Ai Nippon" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y95r44bQTeM
Please note that dancing is an intense physical activity, so there will be a bit of warmup/stretching before we start, if you join late I strongly advise you take a few minutes warming up before starting to dance.
Sessions are open to everyone, pro and beginner alike! If you are curious to either watch or dance just join

Someone finally translated all the talking points from the Japan business conference VRC hosted a few months ago.
tldw:
>VRChat is rebranding itself as a "third place" and distancing itself from the "metaverse" term.
>VRC now considers Japan to be their primary market
>There are more content uploaders in JP than the rest of the world combined
>JPs on average explore more worlds and stick around after their first VRC session more than any other country
>VRChat is pivoting towards a "B2B2C" model where brands pay to use the platform for marketing
>This will likely lead to more DMCA takedowns of existing IP assets in the future
>Any proposed new features will be offered in the shop before potentially being expanded to all users

Thoughts?

Thanks for hosting!

I'm lazy and have money to burn, where can I pay someone to polish and add onto a Vroid model?

>>554818703
I mean yeah. But at that point why are you using Vroid? The point is that it's easy to slap shit together your self. If you gonna spend money just hire someone to make you a model from scratch.

>>554818703
im not a good artist and im still able to polish it a bit. if you know your way around image editing, it's worth the effort for yourself

I think the japanese are terribly broken people and it explains why stick unto escapism much more than everyone else.

>>554820004
They're very social repressed irl, so it's no wonder they'd flock to a virtual space where they can be free & anonymous.

Then why do they push tranny and furry shit so hard? I don't think the Japs are into that, at least certainly not the pink barney furries VRChat advertises.

My guess would be they don't push it nearly as hard onto the JP users but do for NA/EU because it's the biggest audience in those markets.

Incredibly unsurprising. From a raw numbers perspective pursing the hordes of questie children probably made sense to them at first but objectively the nips are much more inclined to actually stick around and promote/live on the platform. Chasing the normie wave/numbers is both almost always a bad idea and detrimental in the long term when you can pursue your actual audience. The JP buy more assets/avatars, spend more time playing probably by an order of magnitude, and actually do more than stand around drinking at night. The only real scenes that have thrived in NA/EU hours I can think of that don't overlap super heavily with the jp is the music event space.

Cycling begins now, let's get it!

JPs play a different game, unironically
When I was in Japan I brought my Quest Pro and upon loading in with my JP IP it was autorecommending different areas/worlds/avatars and didnt have furshit everywhere
The JPs have their own gaijinblocker tutorial and socialization worlds that are always active since the game funnels you immediately into them when you're playing from japan

>>554831291
>>554816007
Exactly. There’s a reason I like /vrg/ since we are basically the japan of the west due to our chan nature. We shall continue to look upon and be as japanese as we can be

desu the japs just made a doxxing website ala the tea app but for VRC do you really want to worship the japs like this

>>554831916
based, that just makes me like them more

>>554831802
wtf I'm jealous of the japs now. they get to have the VRC experience I wanted instead of tranny furries everywhere

>>554831916
i have no idea what that means

If you love japs so much then fucking leave. Tired of weeb-ass faggots with no other fucking hobbies.

jp side of vrchat is so much better, they have all those cool ass themed rp events and that shinjuku live performance public world where mostly everyone behaves, while all we get is fucking raves and niggers with android tag screaming around

>>554831916
I'm actually learning Japanese so I can get disillusioned properly. Well, after 3 years I already am, but I hate people in general, so for the most part the japs are still better.

>gay men
>gay men, japan

>>554833086
I wish I wasn't already in my 30's when I discovered VRC so I still had enough brain plasticity to learn Japanese.

>>554791271
I'm ready

>>554833835
unless you have some mental impairment you can easily learn any language because you are human and it literally comes naturally
even just a short amount of exposure every other day will make a difference over time

poker https://vrch.at/xja0ycxr

>>554835223
It comes naturally to children. After your early-mid 20's you're better off giving up on the dream of native fluency if you're starting from nothing. The brain just isn't wired for it anymore

>>554835380
you are simply retarded, all it takes to learn a language is grind the vocab, read books and get some muscle memory for speaking by repeating phrases after natives, its so fucking easy anyone can do it, all you need to do is stay motivated and trust the plan

2CAT!!!!!!! LMAOOOO!!!

>>554835627
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0010027718300994
The data disagrees. Language learning ability declines steadily after your late teens and I'm twice that age. Do you know anyone who fluently speaks a language they started learning in their 30's? It's rare for a reason

VERY CUTE MUTE NEWFAG

>>554835380
>i dont want to work and grind for it, i want to be 6 years old and just suddenly learn japanese by watching anime every day waaahhh
the best time to start was yesterday and the second best time is today, you can be 5 years older and know enough japanese to chat or you can be 5 years older and not be able to do that with more knowledge about one piece or whatever else occupied your free time
dont let perfect be the enemy of good, just because you dont believe youll get native fluency doesnt mean you cant learn to N2 and just be able to chat casually
nobody gives a shit when a JP has an accent and messes up some words or grammar, so why would they give a shit if you're not perfect at japanese

>>554836262
No, you're not going to reach native fluency, but neither do many people who learned a foreign language in college. Doesn't mean you can't learn well enough to effectively communicate with natives and engage with the culture.

No shit, one of my best friends found a Japanese gf after learning for like 3 years. She was learning English at the same time, and they met on a site where you talk with native speakers of your target language. She moved to the US to live with him.

>>554835380
The vast majority of children actually learn fuck-all when it comes to languages past their native, and no shit that one is easy when you're effectively 100% "immersed" from birth with no other way to communicate and a 18+ year period where you can fuck it up all you want and get corrected immediately.
>>554836262
>whereas those who began in adulthood are often saddled with an accent and conspicuous grammatical errors
Yeah no I'm not reading all this shit. Accent is expected until you spend if you spend a significant amount of time speaking the target language instead of your native, but grammatical errors are only permanent if you're not putting in the effort and only want to speak "well enough" for your job or whatever.

Also you don't need fluency to make use of it. Hell, in most cases you can semi-comfortably play that one game you wanted to play that's never getting translated after a year or less, and learn while you do.

>>554837713
It's fine, thanks for asking.
"Conversational level" depends on the type of conversation. I don't talk to anyone because I'm unironically >>554837392 and will not even bother until my vocab is more than solid, but depending on your priorities you can get there much sooner. I'm ESL so I have a general idea of how that goes, at least.

>>554837713
bien, mas o menos

>>554837713
I just started getting serious about it 6 months ago and I'm 32, I do my wanikani daily and classes weekly
You can do the 'get to N2 within 8 months by studying 18 hours a day every day' youtube clickbait style, or you can take it casually one day at a time and get to N3-N2 or higher over 3-4 years, you just have to stick with it, the best study method is the one you dont burn out and give up on
I went to japan two months ago and was able to have broken japanese conversations with people and do pretty much anything I wanted to with my basic japanese after only 5 months of studying casually, definitely things I wouldnt have been able to do if I knew nothing
Its difficult, but its a marathon, not a sprint

Upon re-reading that post I realize this doesn't really make much sense, but what I mean is that I'd rather minimize real-time embarrassment. Plus it's difficult enough finding someone I'd actually want to talk to even in English. Haven't had much luck with that lately. And by lately I mean several years.

>>554839251
>the best study method is the one you dont burn out and give up on
trvke

>>554839359
well congratulations, you're already in the best place to practice in the world, even the normies have started to catch on for how easy it is to go to JP language exchange worlds in VR/Desktop and talk to JPs to practice, everyone is there to practice, you're not gonna flame the japanese guy for saying 'flied lice', they're not gonna give a shit if you 'are ree gaa toe', theres a button to put over your head if you're okay with people correcting you so you learn
make an alt if you're that sensitive to being embarrassed, but realistically nobody gives a shit you're all there to mutually help eachother

>>554839737
I tried going to some of those but I was too shy to start any convos and the japs, being japs, were naturally the same way.

>>554839990
then hang around some english speakers that know some japanese and practice with the ones that know more than you, usually they'll have a jp come in to practice as well
they're in the same boat as you and are just as shy and scared of being embarrassed as you, but they do it anyways
its only impossible if you give up

>>554839737
I wouldn't even have to make an alt since I don't really go on VRChat much in the first place. And yeah I might do that eventually, but for now I'm fine just consuming product and learning 3 other things at the same time fucking hell there's not enough time please make days 36 hours long

Japanese is not VR games, please take this conversation to >>>/jp/ .

>>554840705
There’s literally a world in vrchat where we do language exchanges in VIRTUAL REALITY

I’ve been there a few times myself

i dont understand if its offensive to put on some sort of ethnic accent when learning a new language or if its what im actually supposed to be doing

>>554840705
Immersive language exchange is a really useful and interesting application of VR. Shit like hellotalk and interpals and tandem and whatever else are not even on the same level. VRC is second really only to going to the country that speaks your target language, itself, and arguable even better than finding language exchange groups irl. Fuck right off.

>>554840705
>conversation about how the japanese have different servers and playerbases in VR
>talk about learning japanese to experience more in VR

For real all of my time not at work is spent either learning programming or spending my one hour of truly free time in VRChat or playing an actual game. I don't know how I could fit in anything else without burning tf out.

if an instance were to be posted RIGHT now how quickly would you be able to join it?
previously it would take me around 10-15 minutes since I kept everything tucked away, but now that I got more space I don't think it would take more than 5 (NOT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ME HAVING TO PSYCHE MYSELF UP)

>>554844627
probably like 2 hours because it takes me awhile to psyche myself up to not be anxious

>>554844496
At least be thankful you have the energy and focus to do nothing but study programming and only need an hour to relax. I'm dead exhausted after work most days and it's a victory if I get 1 hour of actual independent study in vs wasting my time on vidya.

>>554844627
>NOT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ME HAVING TO PSYCHE MYSELF UP
>probably like 2 hours because it takes me awhile to psyche myself up to not be anxious
real, I go to a certain instance to warm my voice up

>>554844759
my man
>mfw I realize there's no difference whether I'm sober or not because the anxiety is that strong

>>554844627
Theoretically, I can join in 40 seconds because I literally live with a headset on my head, but I don't play transgender chat.

>>554844627
5-10 minutes for me, usually looks like this
>turn on SteamVR
>take out and put on trackers
>wipe headset lenses
>use bathroom so I don't have to take my hip tracker off later
>refill/top off water bottle
>Calibrate SteamVR floor height with OVR advanced settings since it always drifts
>calibrate FBT once VRChat launches
>recalibrate face tracking if needed

>>554845294
>play

It's not a game, it's 3D discord.

>>554845294
>because I literally live with a headset on my head, but I don't play transgender chat
What do you play then, don't really see that many things you can play long enough to warrant that hyperbole?

>>554844627
Like 3-7 mins for just the headset, but now with having to add trackers and calibration closer to 10-15 mins.
I'll also sit there and watch the instance count for like 5-10 mins to see if anyone else is actually joining

>>554840705
>trying to pretend to be a janny

Damn good game. Super kino.
The multiplayer is legitimately good, "Star Wars" Knight fantasy.
How long can the porting happen? The game already seems finished from the beginning. I don't remember any levels where I had to do anything besides travel deeper into the level, press a button, travel even farther into a level...maybe press an other button...just to travel even further into the level.

To those who watched Frieren on sunday right after NA anime. I'm thinking of continuing but on fridays at 9pm EST(assuming it gets translated in time). I'll probably rename it to Frieren Fridays. Thoughts?

Thursday workout up.
https://vrch.at/ffyb5uuu

>>554849550
frieren is scheduled for 11pm JP time with the simulcast with dubs/subs slated for release 1hr after airing, so there shouldnt be too much of an issue on translations, itd probably take less than 30 mins for someone to rip it and post it day of

This is making buying the Steam version of Walkabout less appealing.
Might pirate a different game first to see if it's worth it.

What do those have anything to do with frieren?

I've been watching chinese cartoons for 15 years but haven't seen a single episode of those. Therefore they're all shit.

For me FMA:B sucks because of the tonal clash of doing comedy skits and quips during intense moments of life and death or serious matters. Like sure its fine to do funny sequences but do it before or after serious shit is happening not during it. Fucking marvel slop tier

Seems simple enough to me.

>>554838567
I watched J go into matching and talking with random JPs with horrible slav accent and he kept using weird shortened form words, gramatically incorrect VRC slang, defaulting to 俺 and saying なんも or ending phrases with さる which made no sense but some JP told me it's casual way of speaking in Hokkaido.
I bitched at J later because it triggered my autism how he's speaking completely wrong in some redneck dialect and he said he doesn't give a shit about speaking right and only cares about people getting the meaning and laughing at the jokes.
That's when I realized that if you only need the language to talk with average dudes and make puns then you don't need perfect grammar or textbook vocabulary but you need to learn how to speak like average dude. It all depends on why you're learning the language.

Nta but I love her she’s so autistic and positive! The jesus gachaman deserves

SG is from 2010 thoughbeit so yiu’ll have to post an anime older than that

Any of you who haven't seen SG need to watch it now. I am not asking. It's a masterpiece of the 2010s.

>>554853375
I fucking hated gatchaman so much its unreal

>>554853897
Gachaman was so based

>>554853701
Technically there's no way to prove I didn't just watch something last month and take the screenshot then, so it doesn't make a difference.

>>554853897
but it features a tranny, just like you

GACHAMAN GACHAMAN~ (man, not a woman, just like you, heh)

Lmao was it intentional you posted Sky Girls as it has the same initials as Steins Gate

Never watched skygirls only strike Witches

I think I might host an NA hours timeslot, especially now that I'm pretty motivated to host again. The next EU one will be on Feb 5th, I dunno if I should host NA that same evening or split the days.

>>554863497
I'll try that next time, thanks

As is life.
We should do a practice lobby one day. Can practice mode be done in online multiplayer?

>>554864751
Yep, certainly can.

>>554863080
the same frequencies that you make while breathing happen when you talk and when you bump your headset so it would never work

>>554863080
>>554866670
what if it used a separate contact mic as a lung tracker?

>>554867694
Use the data from a chest tracker fluctuating as the breathing

>>554867884
would it have enough data on it's own? and what of people that use lighthouse IK trackers? contact mics shouldn't cost a lot

>>554826818
They dont "push" it, its just what american audience is.

My bad, I thought it was public. Deleting the post because I don't want anyone to give money to that jew, already unsubscribed.

Quest only content has been a disaster for the human race

So it turns out if you sign up for renewing VRC+ while in Japan, it stays like that when you come back so now VRC+ is 990円 every month which is about $6

Neat little world. Someone had some kind of dream and decided to make it into a map.

Another dual scan from china. Splat and scan at once.

The bridge from fate/stay night apparently. It's laggy as shit though

This world is an alien spectacle, almost completely ruined by terrible post processing letterboxing and cinematic blur. If you respawn you can toggle it off; but it toggles EVERYTHING off rather than just the letterboxing.

Interesting buddhist monument

This map was REALLY cool. If you like space anyway. It had a number of interactive simulations for stuff like planet formation, galaxy collisions, and even greater-structure formation. If you play the greater structure one for a while, the entire world fill with 'structure of the universe' and its awesome

I wish I felt like anyones friend instead of just one of those people who sort of exist

>>554888000
you and me both
even when talking with someone one on one, if somebody else shows up their entire attention switches to the third person and everything I say will get ignored or brushed off with a single word

>>554888000
what if you try becoming someone's enemy instead?
you could
>pick a fight with someone, the more autistic the more memorable
>discover something about them and use it as blackmail
then you could join game lobbies and have a rival at the least
I know it's not a "friend" but it's sort of a relationship
the best part about enemies is the more time you spend on it, the stronger the relationship gets

the entire Lil B discography got removed from streaming I've never felt so devastated...

Day 1,463 of WHERE FRAME GABEN REEEEEE

>>554888312
niggas don't even know he's where the whole "based" shit started
I mean, obviously, H-addicts invented the term. But lil B definitely popularized it, or rather, shitposters being ironic got it from him.
I'll pour one out for Lil B. Maybe put on some Viper

I thought I had one until he didn't remember the most basic shit about me.

>>554888475
today for sure

>>554896097
Not this week, I'm not even going to bother being annoyed any more if it's not a wednesday or thursday.

Reminder that I'll be hosting VRChat game event at 20:00 UTC today (In about 5 hours and 30 mins)
Basically we'll jump from game world to game world over the course of a few hours trying to see what people have come up with, although for today it'll most likely be more well known games.
Going to be starting with spirit speakig for about 10-20ish minutes to see how many people we'll get and go from there.

Also has anyone here played a game of danganronpa next? Have been a fan of the series and the premise of the game seems interesting. But how complicated is it to get new players in and how long is the expected game time supposed to be?
