/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #1828

>>555919408 (OP)
Does anyone have the other group pictures? I was facing away in this one

i'm on an original htc vive. it looks like the quest 3 is my best option according to op but it seems like there's no perfect upgrade.
how big a difference in tracking and latency is going from the direct link and the lightboxes of my vive to the airlink (or whatever it's called) and the camera tracking that the quest 3 use?

>>555919987
I don't really think there's a big difference in tracking quality at this point. Being tracked by the headset means you can lose tracking over your head and behind you, but that's not generally a problem.
Latency is going to depend on your setup (you want a decent 6E dedicated router if you're going wireless) and how sensitive you are to it, I personally don't think it's really a problem unless you're playing rhythm games all the time.
That being said, you might as well just wait a little longer and see how the Steam Frame is at this point since it's basically looking to be a better Quest 3 with some extras included.

how do you unlock the VFI browser?

>>555919987
pico 4 ith pico trackers, and you will even be profitable if you sellyour trackers, lighthouses and controllers one by one

>>555919987
What are your priorities. The right headset depends on what you want from the headset.

>>555923114
pico trackers suck

>>555923552
pico trackers are fine, it's the second best thing you can get after vive trackers. It just works without cope or humilition rituals, just like full lighthouse setup does.

>>555924143
>without cope or humiliation rituals
dont forget to look down every minute to reset the trackers lul

Any guides/tips for running VR and VRchat on linux?
Using valve index and fedora kde

>>555924835
install windows 10 and save yourself the trouble

>>555924325
it does it naturally and unintrusively on it's own from your normal head movements. It might ask to look down when you haven't been glancing down and it detected major drift, but that basically never happens.

meanwhile slime users keep being visibly annoyed and keep tapping their chest trackers, meanwhile hybrid calibration users keep being being visibly annoyed and you can see them being slanted from playspace drifts...

>>555923261
all I do is play seated games. I am somewhat interested in messing with standing games if they are good, like I've been wanting to try Alyx for years but been putting it off because the vive controls I assume will ruin the experience. but things like beat saber don't interest me.
I use my headset for playing games like the resident evil remakes or alien isolation with vr mod, and also vr porn. pretty much nothing else. I mostly just want a resolution bump. I like how the tracking on the vive just works perfectly with no issues. I don't know what it's like to have problems with camera tracking it sounds annoying but i've never owned another headset so I was wondering how it compares. I am intrigued with the concept of passthrough vr porn, which the vive cannot do.

>>555927263
Then the quest 3 will be fine. Keep in mind that smooth wireless PCVR takes some investment in some wifi infrastructure for smooth wireless. If you can wait I kinda want to recommend waiting for the frame, but it'll be twice the price if you're budget constrained.

I might not turn up to explo next week.

>>555928232
can I not just hardwire the quest 3 to the pc? That is what I would prefer.

>>555928565
You can but it'll require a good quality cable and it still will not be enough to keep the headset charged.

SEA explo was fun

>>555928565
there is no point, it's the same compressed video stream

>>555928718
There are powered cables that solve that, and they're not exactly super expensive.

>>555929647
looks like the frame will also not connect to the gpu directly? seems like the industry is degrading to chase after normies.

>>555932745
Valve seems to believe that they got wireless working so well you don't need the uncompressed video stream. Did they? Maybe. They built the tech for it; a specialized low latency wifi connection plus foveated streaming that only shows you high quality video where you're actually looking. Does it work? Valve seems to think so.

Solded my Quest 3 a little while ago. Guess I'll just wait for the Frame even though the lack of OLED is disappointing.

>>555933286
It's only disappointing if you weren't paying attention.
OLED doesn't have the brightness to work with pancake lenses.
microOLED is wayyy to expensive.
So that leaves...

>tfw blessed with the ability to completely forget shit like screen tearing, contrast ratio, frame rate, field of view exists

>>555933286
im just sad about the lack of passthrough

>>555933864
The frame has passthrough, it's just black and white.

>>555933904
that's what he said

>>555933929
I wish I was this retarded

>>555934017
you don't get it because you've never experience decent passthrough in your life

>>555933420
I wanted OLED, so yes it's disappointing. That said I care more about having a headset that just werks with linux and no cuckbook spyware so I'll overlook it. Maybe it'll sell enough to get an OLED revision like the 'eck, or an OLED mod.

>>555934249
You are not listening. It cannot be OLED without going back to Fresnel lenses. It will also be a slower refresh rate and higher latency.

>>555934249
lil bro, OLED physically cannot work with pancake lenses, they are physically not bright enough and cannot reach the framerate either

>>555934345
>>555934416

It would be rude to namedrop, but I recognized the guy from multiple boards. His usual haven for the last 16~ years has been /vp/; in which he's spammed the board so much while seeking pokefeet fap material that they've installed many wordfilters against combinations of the word "feet,soles, toes, etc" and ones like "lick, suck, kiss, etc".

>>555933864
who the fuck is actually using passthrough

>>555940680
You don't get it bro I HAVE to get into VR to see my surroundings in perfect detail and color. Who the fuck wears a VR headset for the actual rendered content? I just want to see my surroundings as if I wasn't wearing one at all.

Has anyone else noticed the Forefront friends list is completely broken? I see only the same two players online 24/7 and the join button doesn't work. It's been like this for probably a week.

>>555940680
I've used it once to go get a beer from my fridge part way through vr but most of the time I just take the headset off. I can see the appeal but I wouldn't care if it was gone.

>>555941949
Well the context of the argument is the frame. It's not even gone, just black and white. It also is nightvision too since it's an IR camera.

>>555942231
That's pretty cool and absolutely sufficient for purposes. Only other time it gets used is when I'm setting up my vr stuff while the headset connects to the pc. Sometimes I use the pc and I imagine I won't be able to see the screen from an ir only camera.

>>555942604
I just take off the headset its easier

>>555940680
If you want to play flat games on a big virtual screen, it's nice to be able to see everything like where your drink is instead of fumbling around for it, and while B&W passthrough will work for that, it'll be ugly as shit

>>555941341
The join button only works if there is an empty spot on the server.

Good signing, or sliding in the case of one question

First phase of the mahjong tournament just ended, here's the results.
The bracket phase starts next Tuesday (just so that people can double check if all scores are correctly reported in the sheets); team 50/50 and /jong/ skip the first phase due to their lead, while getting a huge amount of shield (100 and 90 respectively).

>>555944515
It's insane that Valve marketed Frame mainly as le big virtual screen for flat games and then they went with black and white cameras

>>555949853
You can tell marketing probably doesn't even realize it's BW or they would have cockslapped the engineers by how the preview page shows the flat game floating in a nice big color scene instead of B&W like it'll be.

>>555945645
No, it disappears if there isn't a slot. They're not even online.

>>555949853
they're infrared cams, aren't they?

I feel like monochromo passthrough is kinda kino, but it should probably be an option.

holy tourist

>>555952326
holy reddit

>>555940680
Me.
To be honest though I'm more concerned about the resolution/quality of the passthrough rather than the lack of color. There doesn't seem to have been any comment on how good/bad the passthrough cameras are. Hopefully they're more like Quest 3 levels of decent and not Quest Pro levels of horrendous

>>555952326
I as well use the tracker, it's a good service

>>555952797
idgaf about passthrough. literally not the audience they're going for (b-but playing games on big screen...!). kinda corner cutting but w/e. seems decent otherwise if you're allergic to fb

>>555935421
I can't wait for the Samsung 20k nit displays to come to consumer headsets so this debate can be over

>>555951568
It's actually mobileslop "games" in the current year.

>>555953702
I can't wait for a non-shitty spec'd (and non-pimax) headset to be released in the 1-1.5k range.

>>555953154
>literally not the audience they're going for
I just want it to be good enough to be able to read my monitor in a pinch halfway decently in passthrough mode like my Q3 can.

>>555954159
I mean fair, it IS an odd corner-cut on their part considering most other things are fairly solid, and we already know it's not gonna be cheap

>>555940680
I'd use it if it didn't take a minute to activate, throw errors 90% of the time, not even fill the FOV, and have horrible positional distortion, as is the case on the Index. Being able to instantly see the real world would be useful, but anything less than that is going to lose to just lifting the headset up.

>>555954616
Q3 double tap the side of the headset to activate passthrough should be an industry standard. It was fucking amazing to be able to quickly hop back to the real world and then back into whatever without fiddling with things.

>>555949853
Have you ever used b&w filter for your devices? I did on phone an PC to remind me to take a pause or stop and it worked fine, but if for whatever reason the colors would come back again I was even more attracted to it. I think the game will "pop out" more when contrasted with the b&w background and make you more likely to keep playing. Maybe they're employing the same old slot machines tactics.

>>555945814

>>555958937
Terrible idea. Just get a used quest 3 and call it a day dude.

>>555958937
If you're going to actually play vr games just get a Q3 and download steamlink. If you're going to be a tranny in vrchat get an index. Those are the two best options so far. Anything else will have more caveats than benefits. If you're not specifically looking for that one thing a different option does better or has extra then you won't be able to cope hard enough with the fact that it's the only choice. Face tracking capable headsets for example are either worse or way over priced compared to these two options.

>>555960289

>>555965910
>>555962962

I just like that the index has direct link to the gpu with hdmi/display port and better tracking with the lightboxes I already have. am I placing too much value on that? seems like a big tradeoff.

>>555966745
Would you rather watch a 4k video on a 240p display, or a 1080p video on a 1440p display? Quest tracking of the HMD is at least good, if not better, then HMD tracking of the Index, and if you really want to use Knuckles with your Quest, all it takes is buying and mounting a Vive tracker to to your Quest for continuous calibration. If you absolutely insist on a cable, either the Bigshit 2 or one of the funny meme Pimax sim headsets is what you should be looking at, but there's a reason people don't suggest either of those.

the reason is unless youve already spent thousands of hours in vr and just like spending money on tech you want to tinker with and rip your hair out then yes go with bigscreen and pimax

>>555975713
I've been away from 4chan long enough to say whatever I want. I initially thought it would be a cool place to talk to people and found only a cesspool of crap. Then I found VR and happen to stumble back on here every once in a while.

if i'm in the game and i'm sending a boop to someone that's on the website on desktop, do they see it?
i'm trying to figure out if the purple wig wearing faggot is ignoring me

>>555966745
>am I placing too much value on that
no, you really aren't. Latency and compression sucks. It just so happens shills jump out of the woodwork if you mention index, and insist you get a quest even if you explicitly mention pcvr

>>555978420
They see the boop and a word description of the emoji, but not the actual emoji. Sometimes I tell myself I'll respond to a boop when I get back on because I want to see the boop the person sent me properly, but then I just forget. Kind of a shit system in general desu. You really shouldn't be offended by dumb shit like that if he doesn't respond.

these are songs that I have composed (sung) to represent my emotions (feelings) in the Forest Temple. The first one is a spooky echoing vibe that represents the haunting melodies of the Forest Temple. It evokes feelings of emotion like fear and ominousness of being lost in the forest. The second one is a small sample that is meant to evoke fright. The growling is a fearsome instrument that captures the soul and gives a very terrifying vibe. The third one is a upbeat strange funky beat that is more lighthearted than the first two compositions. It is meant to be taken lightly and doesn't quite evoke feelings of fear and more feelings of joy and impishness.

>>556007214
Cable is a consumable and you cannot replace it when it eventually wears down in a year.

>>556007928
The cable isn't wired in the headset, just the halo strap, you can unplug it. There's parts sold online since the connector is known. Not cheap but a dead cable out of warranty won't brick the PSVR2, just cost a lot. Same as index.

>>556008968
>There's parts sold online since the connector is known
Where? It's a completely custom sony proprietary thing

>>556008968
Its a proprietary cable and you need to disassemble half of the HMD to disconnect it. Sony doesn't sell replacements, there is no pinouts available. If its dead, unless you are want to reverse engineer the connector your only option is buying new psvr2 or hope Sony accepts yours for repairs.

>>555975618
Will probably watch them again when the next movie comes out in 2027.

>>556009117
ifixit thread names the connector part

i'll probably just buy a used psvr2 if/when this one fails after warranty but before an upgrade, the low cost means nbd

>>556009726
And what about the cable itself? What standard? How many twisted pairs? What noise level? Where do you get such 5 meter cable? Assuming you can order and have hardware to attach the connector.

>>556009726
Index cable is using standard oculink connectors. How many 3rd party or diy Index cables have you seen?

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. My CGPeers account was disabled many years ago for inactivity (my artlet journey is... very long), but some of the CGCookie courses are on rutracker. I think I once learned the old (2.7?) Blender with their course, but that was so long ago that I barely remember any of that.

What does the jailbreak do if the headset already has a PC adapter?
I do actually have the set, but haven't tried it out yet, wasn't sure if I should keep it or sell it towards getting a BSB/Meganex.

I have the money for a 5090 and a dream to play through Cyberpunk 2077 on a Pimax again, probably also some other games like Ace Combat 7 (8 once it comes out), Resident Evils, Half Life etc.

Worth it? I'm upgrading since I need a good PC for work anyway and my 1080 is starting to show its age, plus I suspect major hardware improvements will probably halt due to AI investments and PS6 not coming for a while. I never used VR before (aside from a few times when my sister let me use an Oculus and I know that I most likely won't have any major nausea, I don't give a fuck about wagglan and motion controls, I'm fine with just "being there" and moving with my head but aiming/playing with mouse and keyboard).

What do you guys think?

>>556025784
>Pimax
Don't get a pimax. Not a single headset is worth it.
PS2VR (with PC adapter box) is better. The price is way better at least. It's not perfect though.
A beyond 2 is probably the next best although it's way more money.
After that I'd consider waiting for the frame.

>>556025784

>>556025784
I made the mistake of getting the Pimax Crystal Lite because the specs seemed good on paper. As always, the retarded Pimax middleware ruins it. The HMD eats up 9-10 GB of VRAM without running a video game. If you try to use your lighthouse controllers with it they'll always have shit tracking and fly off to nowhere for no reason. It's also massive and bulky. If you don't already have a 5090, 4090, or 7900 and play mainly seated sim games, don't bother. A shame too, because the display and optics are really good.

My man you have completely lost the plot. This is EXACTLY the place to come if you want VR related topics on 4chan

>>556025784
Praying the bubble pops soon and you can get it for cheaper, but one of the other guys picked up a 5090 this week and is pretty happy with it. With a rig like that a cheap racing wheel may interest you as well, wasn't into racing games before having VR and now I can't stop playing (and crashing in) dirt rally 2. Project: Wingman is another good Ace-Combat-Like with VR support, definitely enjoyed the plot more than AC7.
Some others have had a couple issues with their BSB/BSB2 so it can be a bit of a dice roll, though misprints in the facial interface are quicker to rectify.

>>556027490
VTOL VR

>>556026839
5090 is worth it. It excels on super high resolutions youd want in vr, due to massive vram bandwith. If you want lighthouse tracking the only real contestant today is the Beyond 2, but even it has its problems with end to end clarity, sample and hold screens (instead of strobed), low brightness and fov.

Pimax are good on paper but their software can be quite buggy and annoying, they even hijack and reimplement lighthouse tracking, worse than native steamvr implementation.

PSVR2 is pretty good, but cable is not replaceable, and it WILL wear out.

Sadly, the best you can get as a starter user is Pico 4 Ultra (with nice cheap pico trackers for vrchat fbt), basically the same but zucced Quest 3, or wait 2 more weeks and get Steam Frame.

I personally use Vive Pro 2, but its controversial enough, you'll love it for central high resolution and clarity, or hate it for overall bulkiness and old design. But I wouldn't recomend it today.

>>556027527
True, also Elite Dangerous and (at a push) No Man's Sky. Surprised no one's popped out of the woodwork to recommend Outer Wilds.

>>556027694

>>556025784
>I don't give a fuck about wagglan and motion controls, I'm fine with just "being there" and moving with my head but aiming/playing with mouse and keyboard

You have NO IDEA what you're talking about. Aiming with mouse and moving with keyboard in VR is EXTREMELY ass. Why do that when you can just grab the gun and aim it? When you can just stick to move? You feel there when your floor is at correct heigh, you stand there and can move around and interact with the world. You'll understand after playing your first vr game, most likely Alyx.

Cockpit games very good too in vr. Racing, flying, yea, there is no point playing cockpit games in flat anymore vr is the optimal way to play them.

>>556028154
I can't play flat shooters any more :(

>>556025784
I can't comment on the headsets as right now I only have a Reverb G2 and a PSVR2 and I'm yet to buy a premium one, but I can vouch for the 5090. It's a monster of a card for VR because of its VRAM. For flat gaming it's a relatively normal gen-on-gen upgrade over the 4090 (well, it's really a 4090 Titan specs-wise), but for VR with higher res headsets the difference is noticeable, even if not really $1000 price difference noticeable.
But yeah, it only makes sense if you really do have the money for it while also having enough to upgrade the rest of your PC and buy enough RAM. The thing is ridiculously expensive even despite being the best VR card you can realistically buy.

>>556028314

Well, MeganeX also exists, even if it requires significant fiddling to make the most out of it.

>>556028870
You can run at higher resolution on pcvr and can run mumble voice chat easier. Otherwise its exactly the same game.

>>556028870
Virtually the same. The PC one is getting some engine and graphics update because apparently that's what the autists care about instead of getting an actual balanced game to work...

>>556029512
No audio, no microphone, shit drivers which dont even render at full resolution, doesnt even have built in watchman dongles, so you have to use the ones from trackers, which can cause radio losses for controllers. Its a meme.

Just firmware downgrades for now apparently. It's cool that it exists, but not sure why that anon was acting like it's actually a selling point yet.
>wasn't sure if I should keep it or sell it towards getting a BSB/Meganex
I like mine well enough as a second headset for sim stuff, but I don't really use it for anything else.
Depending on what you want it for, I could see going for a Beyond but I wouldn't bother with a MeganeX.

>>556028154
Is it really so bad if you don't have motion controls? I get that it's going to be much better with them, but I doubt it's completely unplayable without them? I can image it's going to be disorienting but it probably depends heavily on what you're expecting.

>>556034559
>Is it really so bad if you don't have motion controls?
yes

>>556034589
Well, I appreciate your insight, we'll see if it really does suck dick once I pull the trigger on the PC (if)

>>556028886
Off topic. ERP between two individuals of any sex is straight as long as it's two girl avatars, and whether or not those girls have dicks is irrelevant. A man going for a woman in a female avatar is actually gayer than going tor a man in a female avatar since it's just a meaningless personality debuff whose only purpose is virtue signaling- an inherently feminine activity. The bottom line is that if you still feel straight, you're obviously straight. Most "gays" here just want special snowflake points even though they're really just straights in denial. I see my bro as a girl, therefore I'm straight.

So stay on topic and maybe talk about straight sex.

>>556034559
You CAN NOT play vr games without motion controlls, they are not made for keyboard and mouse, they do nothing on mouse or keyboard inputs. Proper VR mods use vr controllers too. Only a few weird mods use keyboard/gamepad input in vr, and nobody plays them, everyone thinks they are shit.

S: I've prepared the latest Android build for the map, so hopefully we can get questies back again.
I don't have many ways of testing the highlight materials unfortunately, which would be my main concern.

>Dunno what is it about cyberpunk that filters retards this much, either.
The fact that the mod is trash is what "filters" people. It's pretty much just retards with no VR experience that think it'll be good.
>>556034559
Yes, not having motion controls is generally bad for anything that isn't a cockpit game.
What makes this even worse though is that aiming and looking around are still tied together. You're not getting VR freelook while you play the game, you're playing with the UI and reticle attached to your face.
On top of that, it uses alternate eye rendering instead of properly rendering the game for VR so on top of the other issues with that, your framerate is effectively halved.

>>556016289
>Added “My Party UI” to the main menu
Full post makes it even more clear, but the party system is supposedly actually in now. Sucks that there's still no easy way to coordinate games for more than 4 players, but it's a start.

MC-10 now works like a pistol. You can grab it with the second hand to stabilize it but it doesn't influence the aim direction any longer. Might be better for close combat but I haven't formed an opinion yet.

In middle of new lands, the iris stands
Freshly planted by a lone individual
Despite life as a nocturnal
Through flower's colorway, Void sees the day
Sense of vision is no longer dellusional
Once planted it is now central

On Void's back the empty, the flat red lake
Ahead waves shake, there lies a deep blue sea

Behind was a time, so hollow
Forward is empty spaces, new flow
Some circumstances did allow

A broken filament, A rotting tree's torment,
A journey from agreement, A forced smile's moment
A ground causing a descent, A dance for ascent
A lake that rescent, A rain for them to repent

Surely, this plant can only grow from now
Surely, more will come tomorrow
Surely, some will follow
...
Unfortunately, Shine went ahead, already

Hosting Cosmic Princess Kaguya! watchalong on Saturday Feb 7 at 07:00 UTC

is the frame that big of an upgrade over my index? looks like the two pros are a 33% boost in resolution and it's wireless? (i'm not super concerned with wireless other people love that but I never leave my pc). and the trade off is worse tracking, lag from wireless, and you now have to mess with charging it? it doesn't seem like a CLEAR upgrade. is the difference in display that big of a deal?
i've also never used any other headset so I don't really know how wireless or camera headsets feel.

>>556050663
SLAM headset tracking is actually in a very good state. Hand controllers track well too, but you loose behind your back, lower body expressiveness.

Wireless latency is well hidden by on headset reprojection and controller tracking prediction, going from 40ms to 80ms overall latency isn't THAT bad, although it will make your aim slightly worse, and you need to be extremely sensitive to notice. Most good setups will get latency around 40-60 ms though, so it's not that much worse than wired (40 ms motion to photon, on most 90 Hz headsets).

Compression artifacts though, are quite noticable on hard to compress textures, but frame foveated compression should be able to reduce them quite a lot.

Resolution increase: you will feel like you've been blind your whole life and jesus cured you.

>>556050663
Valve made wireless as good as cable. Or at least they believe so. They didn't even add the ability to use a cable they're that confident in it.

>>556050663
If you move around a lot in your playspace and irl turn instead of stick turn, wireless will be very good for you.

>>556050070
AAAAAHHH STEAM WHY CAN'T YOU KEEP MY GAMES UP TO DATE, PLEASE WAIT

>>556051227
I'm really excited to try out the wireless delay on the frame tbdesu. On the quest 3 actually you can get incredibly low latency but you need to drop the bitrate to around 120 @ h264 which looks kinda poo in games like pavlov but with the foveated encoding + more bandwidth headroom from wifi 7 then I believe the encode/transmit/decode on the frame will be extremely competitive. Might be sub 8ms for the entire stack.

>>556051591
>. Might be sub 8ms for the entire stack.
network stack? Even then too good to be true, more like 20 on network, + 10 on PC, + 11 on hmd + waiting on vsync, in best case.

>>556050663

Quest 3 + dedicated router, you have to only let it talk to Meta during the initial setup, after that you don't even have to give it internet access to use as a PCVR headset. Also, Steam Frame is promising the same thing but without Meta being involved at all, so might want to wait

>>556051708
Now I'm talking total. Right now with my Q3 using optimized setting I'm getting 4/3/6 for encode/transmite/decode but like I said the image quality isn't great compared to full bitrate h265 but then the latency shoots up to like 6/6/12.

>>556052019
omw

>>556050663
Pancake lenses are a pretty nice improvement over fresnels too, especially if they're as comparable to Quest 3 as impressions suggest they are.

>>556051898
No one knows what is going to happen to fbt after the frame releases and outside in tracking dies forever. Maybe the new meta will be frame+flux and we'll never need lighthouses again. Maybe there will be a controller mount for them in the future so you can track your hands behind your head. Maybe it'll just be a strap directly on your hand so you can have the quest finger tracking along with occlusion free hand position tracking.
Personally I wish I could go back to lighthouse tracked controllers but zucc and the absolute state of getting anything imported here has stopped me from being able to do that.

>>556051898
>what are the supposed drawbacks?
There are no technical drawbacks. The reason it's on the way out is cost. It just costs too much.

>>556050663
You're right, it's not an upgrade, it's a Quest/Pico competitor. Index is just retired as a product category. Short of Pimax or BSB there aren't really any other "upgrades" for the Index on the horizon.
For what it's worth, you don't have to use it wirelessly, it works wired as well. Head tracking will be fine (in most lighting conditions), it was fine even on the WMR headsets with crap dual cameras, with controllers we'll see but without cameras on the back of your head there will always be dead zones. For sims and general vidya it should be a good option; for social VR it's suboptimal, especially if you want FBT. The screen is of course much better, except for maybe FOV (we won't know for sure until it's released), but that's because the Index screen is downright ancient by now.

>>556052013

>>556053154
>Flux
How does it even work? And is it different from Haritora?

>>556053674
It measures the magnetic field and uses that to figure out its position relative to the hip tracker. Been a lot of testing videos that look pretty good. Main appeal is that the trackers are really small, lots of them can be supported at once, and it doesn't need line of sight so they can't be occluded. Some question over what metal things do to them like bed springs but theoretically you could leave your room entirely and still track fine. I think there's a video of a vtuber going to pee mid stream and it tracked her body the whole way but I can't remember if that was actually fluxpose.

>>556053674
It's IMU + constant calibration via a magnetic field emitter you wear on your hips to prevent drift as plagues normal Slimes

>>556053674
it gets shilled every day here but the big innovation is that it uses an electromagnet on the floor rather than the very weak magnetic field of the Earth, reducing the amount of interference and allowing it to work on planets with no magnetic field. Since nobody is going to Mars any time soon, all it practically means is that the box fan and steel chair in your room maybe won't confuse your trackers as much, thougheverbeit nobody really knows how effective this mechanism actually is because nobody actually uses these trackers

>>556053674
It's closer to vive trackers than slime/haritorax/mocopi.
Vive trackers are basically imu + constant calibration using the lighthouses; Flux is imu + constant calibration using the hip tracker's magnetic field
It's not a new technology, for instance it was used in the Pico 2 for the controllers, and it worked really well apparently (timestamped demo, review in french but you can understand the test without speaking it: https://youtu.be/ZvfiG5Yc9uc?si=-pUPjedJD4Jrk0ap&t=1070 )

I would say the richfag's choice for PCVR is Play For Dream.
Or even Galaxy XR, but with that one you have to have a narrow head for it to be comfortable.
Alternatively you could wait for reliable reviews to come out for the new Pimax Dream Air, getting that headset into your hands could take quite a few months tho, and Pimax is a very unreliable company so you are basically hoping for a miracle.

The VRPanda strap has made my XR much more comfortable to the point I don't mind wearing it compared to my Q3.

I've noticed in Forefront that kids are somehow extremely bad at interpreting what is happening to helicopters. They see the pilot dying as them having jumped out, maybe because they're unaware it's possible to die inside the cockpit? More unusually, they usually interpret the helicopter being destroyed by RPGs or tank shells as the pilot crashing into something, even when they're obviously nowhere near anything. Maybe because they expect some kind of kill feedback and the lack of that is interpreted as an environmental death? I witness these things almost every game from children.

rusk a cute

any tips for optimizing 'my' avatar? it's only like 14mb but the poly count is through the roof, not sure if it matters. already using the d4rkavataroptimizer for reference (which I assume only compresses some of the textures)
glad I managed to figure it though, even got to add avatarlimbscaling

>>556075802
You'll have to use blender and manually reduce the poly count by removing or merging edge loops.

>>556075802
Get thrys and find all the 4k textures, change them to 2k or even 1k or below if the texture doens't suffer too much, aim for below 100mb texture. Don't forget there's also imposters you can one click on the website, too, as well, after you actually upload the avatar.

>>556075802
anatawa12's AOO has a function that allows you to delete mesh by blendshape in Unity that you can use to cull body polygons underneath the clothing, but beyond uploading each outfit as a different avatar, you're not really going to be able to do much about polys beyond that without major work which simply isn't worth it. Make a single green version with an outfit you like, if possible, and then don't worry about poly count for the rest as long as everything else is okay

>>556078240
>uploading each outfit as a different avatar
oh does that actually count towards it? if so then I don't think the avatar is that demanding, only that it has a bunch of outfits options which I ASSUME doesn't actually matter except for people who glance at the numbers and assume the worst
should probably find out how to remove those anyway so I don't get auto-blocked

a single 128x128 texture was enough for character models in online games in the 90s and your avatar really shouldn't need more than that

>>556079075
>let me guess, you need more?

>>556075802
yep
keep the d4rk shit. I think its broken since 20 releases and does nothing but it also doesnt make things worse.

Get AAO.
https://github.com/anatawa12/AvatarOptimizer/
Add this to your unity project.
Add the "AAO Trace and Optimize" Component to your avatar (where your avatar descriptor is)

Add "AAO Remove Mesh by Blendshape" to your Avatar body (not the head, your actual body)
Experiment what blendshapes you can hide. Then toggle them, this plugin will cut them out. effectively completely removing all tris from your model.
This works with Meshia but can have WEIRD af side effects. If you for example hide your entire torso under a costume just set the poly count in meshia higher, test it out until it works out!

Get LAC TC

You can play around with the settings and see what works for you, but even if you choose "High Quality" you will see a noticeable reduction in texture memory

Get Meshia
https://ramtype0.github.io/Meshia.MeshSimplification/index.html
Add this to your unity project.
Add the "Meshia Cascading Avatar Mesh Simplifier" Component to your avatar (where your avatar descriptor is)
This one is tricky and can make your avatar look CONSIDERABLY MORE SHITTY
It will decimate polygons until your avatar hits the treshold you set (its 70k by default for good performance)
Play around with the sliders, it shows you the result live in unity. If it works out for you, more power to you, but if you're a modbeast it requires insane tweaking.

>>556078932
>oh does that actually count towards it?
It counts towards the VRC rating, and most people are either culling based on that or VRAM/download size, not actually looking at an avatar's stats.

>>556079075
Yea, I was shoving my face inches away from those models on a 4k resolution screen, and they were fine!

>>556079452
added and thanks, will use if needed

>>556079516
>It counts towards the VRC rating
I'll try to aim as low as possible, but surely 'poor' is servicable considering it has a cap unlike 'very poor'

I don't remember the details but wasn't there something as well about hidden outfits/parts not only counting towards poly counts, but that they are still used for drawing as well, such that hiding avatar parts doesn't really improve performance?

>>556081845
I could make a Poor or even Medium that would rape your FPS far more then a decently made Very Poor, VRC's guidelines are arbitrary and dumb. However, the built in culling systems in VRC operate based on either rating or VRAM/download size, and most people aren't micromanaging showing avatars or not but instead relying on the automated systems. However, if you can get under 70k polys, I would be very surprised if you can't instantly get to Good because all of the other limits are fairly generous or at least easy to hit with the various tools that do automated clean up, while 70k polys is a rather strict limit comparatively, and you go instantly from Good to Very Poor at that cutoff due to it being based on a long fixed Unity bug and VRC's team being a bunch of fucking retards who don't think to revisit the standards, which means the community has largely decided to ignore them and everyone is Very Poor.

am i going to realistically be able to get my hands on a steam frame or will they be backordered until next year like the index was

>>556084651
they won't be available until at least two more weeks

>>556082672
You're probably referring to the material count? Each additional material incurs an extra draw call.
I don't know how it interacts with the fragment/vertex shader, but "doesn't really improve performance" seems that all vertices/pixel transforms are still calculated in the shader, which seems unlikely to me.

Tuesday's movie is Ghost Dog: Way of The Samurai
https://letterboxd.com/film/ghost-dog-the-way-of-the-samurai/
A Black hitman who models after the samurai of old finds himself targeted for death by the mob.

starting at 20:00 UTC as usual !

can someone pls link a youtube tutorial that will fill me in on how to delete my current arms and replace them with arms from a different model id like to install

>>556086924
1. import the model with the arms you want
2. delete everything but the arms
3. delete the arms from your original model
4. use the cats plugin to merge armatures
5. adjust scaling and UVs as needed
you'll need to redo the UVs entirely most likely but it's not as hard as you think

>>556087724
>merge armatures
so i keep the armatures of both the original and new limbs?
>UV
i need to be spoonfed on this a bit. i'm very unintelligent but i appreciate the help. im a much better visual learner but i cant find a great video on this stuff

WW1/ WW2 VR air combat game by Gaijin (Warthunder) coming out tomorrow. Will have real aircraft cabins w/virtual cockpit controls and online SP/MP and PVP missions. I'll check it out and might host something if it's worthwhile.

> 29 highly detailed aircraft from World War I and World War II await you in unique online multiplayer battles, where you can fly with friends in formations. The historical campaign will recount famous events in the world of combat aircraft across various theaters of war. Additionally, a proving ground, mission editor, and separate single-player missions are available, allowing you to test various aircraft in a variety of locations, weather conditions, and combat situations.

>>556087916
this is a good one that helped me understand UV stuff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XleO7DBm1Us

>>556087916
>so i keep the armatures of both the original and new limbs?
once merged you'll have only one armature

>UV
for a 3d model to be drawn with 2d textures mapped to each face, the faces need to be given 2d coordinates, by convention referred to with U and V rather than W X Y Z. The process of assigning this is called "UV mapping" or "UV unwrapping"

>>556088225
They'll have a full on Pearl Harbor mission and everything, this looks really cool.

>>556088225
All the reviews saying it's gud. Price is gonna be around 30 bucks and there's HOTAS + VTOL-like controls (not as good).
I'm gonna try it for sure but probably not on release

>>556088261
>>556088512
thanks, ill give it a shot tomorrow evening but im kind of prepared for it to be a disaster

>>556088640
Even if it is you can always try again until you get it right. Once the model is set up in blender it's again a pain to make Unity import it correctly and ensure all the bones are assigned properly, but don't give up.

>>556079452
me again, trying to find out how I can view the total poly count WITHOUT uploading my avatar. the tools you provided I know works, but the vrc control panel doesn't update the total count, and I've tried installing several scripts but nothing. the 'game' section of unity always shows like several hundred thousand more polys than what the actual model is so that is unreliable as well

>>556091625 (Me)
nvm I'm fucking retarded, now it suddenly works

I got my Quest 2 progress moved to Steam for Walkabout, but for some reason my scores and Hard Mode unlocks didn't transfer for the last three DLCs.
Can anyone check your %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Mighty Coconut\Walkabout Mini Golf\Data folder and its subfolder to see if the filenames are any different than pic related?

>>556102171
I only have one folder in that directory and this is all the files in it.

Anybody know if there's a prefab for the feature in VRC volleyball where you can move the player camera inside a bubble and get a specified picture? I've seen similar features in other worlds as well. Having trouble finding anything on booth

>>556103141
Yep I use it a lot for our events

https://github.com/jetdog8808/Jetdogs-Prefabs-Udon

It should be the "default reference camera.prefab" under the prefabs folder

>>556048804
>2 months
god i hope... I'm increasingly worried that it wont actually be 2026, or if it is its like q4

>>556095629
good pypyin' pypyers

>>555919408 (OP)
The avatar diversity, the density of how close everyone is standing, my god it's even tall in back small up front

>>556102749
Thanks.
I wonder why I seem to have so many fewer files. I've got every course, nearly ever putter and finished the internship program.

>>556105219
Not a clue. I've got everything in the game unlocked as well.

>>556103876
Isn't this just a regular camera? Is there another way to use it? I was asking about the specific function that allows players to put their in-game camera into a circle that then snaps a picture from a separate reference camera.

>>556105896
I'm currently at work so it's harder for me to verify if the name I gave you is the correct prefab. But it's there, might be under a different name

If you can wait 2 hrs I should be back home and can extract and give you the exact one I use from the prefab bunch

>>556106396
Yeah I'm a little stumped, I've tried all of the camera prefabs and I'm not sure how to use them. I can't find any documentation for anything. I'll probably be asleep by then but I'd appreciate it, I'll check the thread tomorrow.

guys i might have become addicted to blender. i wake up in the morning and open blender before my first coffee. i stay on blender until it's vr time. while i'm on vr i wish i could be in blender

blender is such a joy to work with, I don't get the hate, or people's preference for unity.

>>556108947
Thanks! Gives me a compile error for whatever reason but perhaps I'll figure it out later.

>>556105352
I just noticed a few things. The files in my Data folder are just duplicates of files in the subfolder. Also, some of the files you have that I don't are much larger than the others.
I played through Forgotten Fairyland to see which file had an updated "modified" date, and the ball I found then carried back over to my standalone file on its own.
This is retarded. What the fuck, Mighty Coconut?
I know I'm being ungrateful because it shouldn't have even worked this well, but still, what the fuck?

>>556109526
>>556109526
It's mainly the screen overlay shader and Screen(card).rendertexture that is important for your purposes

>>556108439
Only world component Quest client doesn't support is postpro stack, otherwise there's no limitations aside from upload size for better or worse.

I considered deleting files one by one to see what each one did, but if moving them all didn't fix it I don't see how that could help.
I'm gonna feel retarded if those files are just set to hidden. Is your Explorer set to display hidden files?
Wouldn't hidden files still be moved with the folder?

should I try my psvr2 headset on my pc? i guess you need an adapter or something.

>>556111716
sex this lizard

>>556110867
Tomorrow, then.
I'll keep you all posted with daring details my boring journey.

>>556111875
I think it's definitely worth at least trying if you already have one laying around.
You need an adapter to connect the headset to the PC (3rd party ones work too) plus a way to connect Bluetooth controllers, but that's a lot cheaper than grabbing another headset to try and OLED is kinda nice.
Only use mine for sims though, I still use the Quest 3 for everything else.

tl;dr in your case is stop using d4rks, start using AAO. AAO and d4rks don't work together and AAO lets you delete polygons in unity without opening blender.
If there's nothing left to delete you need to open blender and edge loop dissolve.

>>556084651
I think VR is way too dead for there to be much interest. People will be like "Oh I want a frame!" then it comes out and they see it's a $900 quest 3 and they don't bother.

>>556097490
Yes

>>556115964
it doesn't work if you suck cocks, sorry man

>>556115964
It's a common problem that the mic volume isjust set too low

volume is all the way up, mic works on quest link, recordings, youtube, just doesnt work on steam link wireless (havent tried wired)

>>556111875
its a massive upgrade over the rift S. Get the adapter.

>>556120756
Try something like Voicemeeter if you're on PCVR to boost the microphone gain even further when you play Walkabout?

It's not a liminal pool don't bother, it's just a school pool. For an umamusume world.

>>556123834
The only positive review is from a shilltuber who got it for free. "Clickable" cockpits are limited to stick and throttle. Cant even grab the gear lever. The plane controlls are simplified to hell, no radiator, no split throttles(rpm, throttle, pitch), no nothing. What the fuck they were doing all this time? Its litterally worse than warthunder realistic battles, but with a small singleplayer campaign.

>>556124593
I guess I should cave and buy the VTOL DLC at this point, better than buying this.

>>556124217
>>556124284
daww, still a nice pool nonetheless, thanks anons!

eh, I'll pass, I don't want to run another userscript.

>>556123834
Doesn't even properly support HOTAS, you still need controllers for everything but direct plane control.

>>556128472
Its a flat game, it supports hotas, some absolute retards cannot even phatom going to settings and binding things. But it doesnt save the game at all.

Don't underestimate the Valve sect. It may not get to be Index tier popular, but people who bought Index, Deck, Steam controller, etc, will buy this as well whether they need it or not.

Yeah I considered that but I hope it's not enough to actually make them hard to get.

>>556053402
>it works wired as well
I think I wrote bullshit, it seems that it doesn't actually support wired use after all, its USB 2.0 is probably only usable for charging. Well, you can technically play with wireless data while charging it with a wire, I guess.

>>556133589
It only supports wireless video. It does so over either the provided 6E dongle, or over your own wifi network, and supports wifi 7 if you choose your own hardware.
You can use the USB interface to charge it or as a way to do file transfers and other OS-level stuff but no video streaming over cable.

He was too lazy to open unreal ever again

playing this in VR gives it the feeling that the developers of the original wanted it to have

>>556134713
I've been meaning to play this. This is the remake VR mod , right? I usually don't play the vr mod of things right at release because they tend to be janky.

>>556134782
yes its uses UEVR and the profile from gwizdek and one thing the GOG version for some reason does not work wit it

>>556134782
Forever waiting for dudes to finish their mods. The guy kept teasing full body IK and two handed weapon grips for months now.

>>556134998
How playable is it, and how much does it feel like a VR game rather than just a flat game in VR

>>556135050
i mean its not to bonelab level or anything but its very playable without needing to change any controls or anything like that including the full menu

>>556135161
Good enough for me, I'll try and find time to boot it up.

>>556134013
can we play gungame instead of search and destroy i hate dying to the first bullet ever fired in the round and then having to watch for 10 minutes not doing anything

>>556135483
I could try sprinkling in some gungame here and there but the fact is that SnD is the most compelling game mode long term. The breaks actually help you not get fatigued.

>>556123834
>Only VR controls are stick and throttle
>everything else is only selectable from a RADIAL MENU
why even make the cockpit at that point

>>556135936
How the fuck did it take 3 years to take content from warthunder, make a simple cockpit interaction for a few planes and make a few missions for campaign?

>>556137618
too busy wiping confidental military data from their forums

>>556135554
No feedback; how do people feel about a gungame sprinkled in the usual mix?

What is the point of hip tracking if you don't plan to dance or move your body strangely in VR?

>>556140018
Laying down and immersion

>>556137618
More reviews are in and it seems you can enable manual engine controls, and map radiator/pitch whatever to your hotas/keyboard

But it litterally seems like a warthunder simulator mode but with singleplayer campaign and multiplayer lobbies without any mmorpg crap. Plus some touchable cockpit controlls, minimal though, just enough to fly with the automatic engine assistant. And a little added polish/higher fidelity in the cockpit models compared to warthunder.

Might be actually okay, but whats the difference if you can just fly il2? Cheaper I guess.

>>556134713
Wasn't 2 supposed to have an official VR mode

>>556139997
Id be down for short casual gamemodes after each round ir every 2 rounds. Gungame, one in the chamber, hidden, hell Id play a round or two of TTT even, but most people here seem to hate it.
Also as alternative to SND sometimes we could try Gunfight gamemode, its also competitve, team deathmatch with no respawns, locked loadouts, and if a round takes too long a capturable zone spawns. Works with any snd map.

>>556140631
It's only cheaper if you buy the base game that lacks "premium" planes because this is Gayjew so of course there's premium planes. IL-2 is still better sim and if you just want singleplayer simcade Warplanes 2 is like 10 bucks and has longer campaign.

>>556140720
Nani? System shock 1 and 2 are the really old games. The one that works with UEVR is the 2023 remake of system shock 1:

>>556140868
We tried gunfight, it doesn't work with more than 10 players

>>556123834
>Congratulations to Gaijin on another great game and thank you double that for waiting until the game was ready to go instead of all the nonsense "Beta" releases we see lately where it's not worth buying until a year later and there's every danger they just give up and you end up with a game that doesn't even work (Yes, I'm looking at you EA WRC!)
Definitely a shill even with the justified shade thrown at WRC.

>>556140341
so if i never plan to lay down with it, its pointless?

>>556141007
I never get into VRC without FBT and I never lay down. The immersion is worth it, even without ERP.
That said, if you don't have lighthouses already it's probably not worth it to get that type of tracking. Fluxpose looks good, wait for that, or if you have a pico, pico trackers. Pretty much everything else is a meme.

>>556141125
i do have lighthouses but i really don't wanna spend $1,000 on trackers.

>>556141309
Well then look on ebay for a set of 3x HTC 3.0 trackers. If you have lighthouses already that should be 300-400 USD.

It's over

>>556140882
>Warplanes 2
You cant be serious. Aces seem like easy to use like vtol, but with actually not bad flight simulation from warthunder sim mode. Im not playing a game where planes fly like trains on rails.

If I know you own FBT but ever see you in 3point, I assume you are an irredeemable trashnig who only now uses it for erp and cease communication.

>>556141007
Its jarring to see your feet do the stepie step animation after you try full body. It just feels right to be fully tracked.

>>556141007
>>556140018
Hip tracking makes your tracking not look retarded. When you do just feet and your hips don't really follow your lower leg movement, it looks incredibly bad. Hip + feet is just standard.

>>556141370
idk if i wanna even waste $400 on this shit having to calibrate it everytime i wanna use the shit just sounds like a huge pain in the ass. I wish this shit was easier to use.

>>556143494
If you already have lighthouse hmd you dont need to "calibrate this shit". You just tpose align with your avatar once.

Would you play a menu-based game like a turn-based dungeon crawler using eye tracking as a cursor?

>>556143598
yea but don't you have to tpose like that everytime you load up VR? thats what i mean.

>>556143710
It takes two seconds anon

Yes, you tpose once when you start vrchat. Its just 2 seconds in front of a in game mirror.

Its not like the hybrid colibration wher you need to do calibration dance every time on vr launch or when your quest randomly drifts, its not like slime fbt where you need to constantly calibration squat and constantly fiddle with yaw reset due to imu drift. With full lighthouse (or full pico setup) it just works.

>>556143494
Calibrating takes 2 seconds. I put the trackers on while VRChat is loading, and then once loaded in, T-pose for 3 seconds and then I'm done for the entire session. I was in VR for over 24 hours a little while ago and I don't think I ever recalibrated.

>>556143812
i don't know, i wish it was cheaper, I also am dreading the fact that I have to get a lighthouse stand, find my wires for the lighthouses to work because i didn't expect to need the lighthouses again, its just alot of searching.

>>556143706
Eyetracked cursor has a midas touch curse and is ass.

>>556144087
Oh, youre not on lighthouse hmd... If its pico, just get pico trackers. If its quest, welcome yo hybrid tracking hell, which can be a less of a hell if you mount 4th tracker on the headset for continuous calibration.

>>556144237
yea im on quest 3 and i packed all my VIVE shit away somehwhere in my room, i have alot of boxes that I don't wanna sift through to find the shit...

>>556144406
Oh if you're hybrid you'll want a 4th tracker for continuous calibration and then it does get fucky. For a pure lighthouse space FBT is super slick and easy, but it gets a bit worse when mixed. With the 4th tracker it makes it good though.

>>556144406
Should have bought pico

>>556143706
There are some classic dungeon crawlers in VR with oldschool DM controls and they work just fine but no eye tracking memes. With that kind of game using gamepad is perfectly fine.

>>556145164
didn't have the money to buy it 4 months ago.

>>556145628
But had the money for quest 3?

I can still feel the full energy of my bewilderment from this.

God watching the laggy cat play is the funniest thing

I don't mind OITC or gungame, since they're over in like 5min. hidden or TTT takes too long though.

Boredom tea https://vrch.at/f5tyzav2

I fucking hate Facebook it's such a piece of shit service. I just want to use my fucking quest headset you pajeet niggers!

Is the vive pro 2 really THAT bad? anyone own it? it seems decent on paper

>>556154449
Good panels, shit everything else. It's outdated HMD, at best usable for sims.

>>556154914
happy for you SF

>>556154449
it's the only other headset that makes use of the only good lighthouse system, so it works if you don't have access to an index. autists will insist you modify your shit to be cross-compatible and make you deal with tech/drift/shit ton of additional setup

>>556157695
wouldn't it replace the index?

>>556157803
the screen is better but everything else is a downgrade

>>556154449
the lenses will make you feel like you're going blind

>>556140018
Hip is actually the most important tracker to have because it allows you to lean forward without having your avatars chest massively desync with yours.
If I had to chose between waist or feet, it would be waist hands down, because it contributes the most towards immersion.

>>556135936
Uhh what? That's one of the good things about vtol vr.
Why would they put it to a radial menu?

>>556159163
They just took WarThunder, slapped some rudimentary motion controls on top, fucked up the engine to make it run worse, downgraded the AI and flight model and shipped it with extra serving of cashshop. The whole "made for VR first" marketing was just that, marketing. Just GayJew things.

Forefront fact of the day: If you pull out the grenade pin and get shot the grenade falls down and eventually explodes.

Not so nice about the pins is that I slam my controllers into each other to pull the pin most of the time.

>>556160504
Yeah I already miss being able to just activate the grenade with trigger.

>>556115263
>AAO and d4rks don't work together and AAO lets you delete polygons in unity without opening blender.

Absolutely incorrect. I assume you can't use all of the features of both since they're doing the same thing and targeting the same mesh gets wonky, but you very much can use the delete mesh by blendshape from AAO alongside d4rk's

bolt action day! just a couple minutes away!

>>556161075
When I tried in my project, what happened is instead of deleting polygons, the AAO components added polygons. Switching off d4rks fixed this, so that was my conclusion.

>>556161224
NTA but probably need to have some baked/applied version of AAO first before running d4rks on that copy (or vice versa).

>>556161395
Yeah, problem with running a baked version of AAO is it defeats the point of doing it in unity. I'd just delete stuff in blender elsewise.

>>556161224
I haven't updated d4rk's to 4.0 and used it since, but with 3.12.5 and 1.8.14 AAO, they played together quite nicely. The only component I use is delete mesh from AAO, though, so maybe your mileage might vary if you're using more of it.

>>556161730
Anyway,noted. I'll change it to a 'may not work' possible issue rather than 'doesn't work'.

>>556157916
compared to an index?

>>556162368
the bigmeme has better clarity imo

>>556161224
>d4rk's

>>556162612
I've used the vive pro 2, index, and bigscreen 2, and bigscreen 2 has by far the best clarity of the three. I've also used quest 2, quest pro, and pico 4, and none of them come close, especially because of the compression that comes with wireless headsets.

>>556163310
yes but i get no poly increase when it is d4rks + aao mesh delete. Comsidering the entire point was to bring polygons down, it's not what I wanted

>>556163483
i mean no poly increase when just d4rks.

I feel as if I've reached peak cuteness with my avi, but now I've realized I'm the one holding back my avi's cuteness.

>>556164079
>avi

>>556164079
Same, but that does also mean now you know what to work on

>>556170872
I guess if you really want to be a nigger-faggot you could
>>556170978
no

>>556165415
if you forget when it is, tea is always announced the day before as well with Monday Mahjong announcement. So you should check those if you never know the week

(this reminded me, forgot to mention that there's monthly boardgame this thursday)

>>556169304
Anon can't read...

>>556170978
Maybe it logs it anyway if someone in the instances spots you with the software running
Then broadcast your location to all other vrcx users

>>556171391
this triggered me but then I realized this is a base fearmongering tactic I'm going to start saying it does this

>>556171927
How does everyone adjust their floor height with FBT? So like you can sit down and and be at the correct height. Without openvr calibrator preferably. Think I've seen it in a expression menu somewhere

>>556174094
OVR advanced settings play space drag

>>556174094
OVR advanced settings has a playspace mover function

weird stuff happened with the server at the end there

>>556174375
Yeah not sure what happened; I checked the log and there was a whole bunch of packet drops.

>>556174290
>>556174294
Oh shit alright, I HOPE it doesn't brick anything else by adding that

>>556174678
Nah it's pretty safe.

>>556177886
oh nice, frame newfags are starting to show up before the frame is even released.

stick around, /vrg/ is always hosting instances for different activities in VRC like movies, anime, boardgames, minigames, etc.

>>556177886
keep that in mind that VRC is not the only vr game. in fact vrc isnt really a game.

>>556179223
Always wanted to see whats behind the hair

>>556163462
sounds like that may be the way to go. other than the price tag what are some of the downsides to the bigscreen?

>>556183234
low brightness, high persistance displays, which make the image slightly blurier than it should be. Full resolution is only achievable at 75 Hz

>>556183234
see >>556040005

>>556184303
>>556184370
isn't that all still a step up from an index? or do I give in and go wireless with the frame? (I really don't want to)

>>556184725
everything that was just listed are steps down from the index

bigscreen beyond has been a meme headset since its inception, wait until frame is released and see what reviews say about it.

>>556184881
I would take all of those tradeoffs to have
>uOLED
>Way higher resolution
>Pancake lenses
Especially because you're getting shit framerates in VRC anyways, so 75hz actually doesn't matter.
:)

>>556184725
the advantages over index:
higher resolution
lighter
arguably better lenses

disadvantages:
dim screens
motion blur
no audio solution, and the audio strap (sold seperately) is shit
QA issues and need to deal with support
lower FOV
lower refresh rate

Microphone is good on both Index and BSB

Frame is very promising, as also Pico 5 maybe in the first half of 2025.

>>556185221
The Index also has godawful QA, or are we going to just pretend rainbow sparkle damaged cables and knuckles drift don't exist?

>>556185394
green snow happens as VR headset cable gets damaged over time. Knuckles stick drift has been resolved in later revisions, after they forced chink factory to use the correct version of sticks, but yes it can happen, eventually as with all other resistive sticks.

Frame will be free of such issues with hall effect sticks

>>556173049
>Not sitting on people's heads
So much free realestate that everyone could be using

We are now cycling, let's get it!!

Is being on the tierlist a redflag?

Running the Nurburgring in Assetto Corsa tomorrow night at 8PM ET (in ~25.5h).
Car list is in pic related, let me know if you have anything else you want to run.

what

>>556186386
if you're in the red flag tier yeah.

>>556166974
thank ya'll for coming
always follow your way...

see those who can make it next week where i debate whether or not to watch something chinese (and if not next week, then the week after for sure)

>>556108439
very nice thanks
I will let him know

How long after the frame is released will it take before you can plug a bigmeme into it?

>>556186386
>tfw I only know about this because I checked out their thread once

>>556188219
wat

>>556188557
so you can use the bigmeme "wirelessly" to your computer via the frame

>>556185563
>Knuckles stick drift has been resolved in later revisions
Damn I wish they told this to the RMA agents so I wouldn't have to STILL keep RMAing every single year.

>>556186386
Wrong tab, sis.

>>556188219
>>556188753
nigga you making zero sense
they are two entirely different headsets and can never be connected to eachother
Steam Frame = Frame
Bigmeme = Bigscreen Beyond

>>556190029
the frame is just a computer niggi. someone will do this.

>>556186386
What tierlist are you talking about?

Question to /vrg/, how did you choose your VRChat avatar?

>>556190397
Favorite anime with my waifu in it

>>556186386
everyone on the tierlist is either a trashfag or one of the most infamous people from vrg. unless you're trying to have vr sex, stay away

>>556190397
I'm a big fan of eye candy, so just something nice everyone can look at and think "cute"

>>556190823
>>556190286
>>556186386
I thought this was some tier list of the cutest anons/best mahjong players, but its just some trashniggercattle shit

>>556190397
Tried a bunch of different facetracking preview avatars, found one that I liked.

>>556190397
Found in vket and something clicked when trying it

>>556190397
Male anime character that I didn't expect to feel wildly out of place in

>>556190397
Selestia has a nice body type. I liked Wolferia's face blendshapes, I'm a sucker for the tsurime eye type which was perfect for it, even though my blendshapfu is no where near what the japanese can puil off with theirs

>>556186386
kinda sad I am not, but it is for the best

>>556190397
I like how androgynous and cool Lapwing is.

>>556190606
I don't know how anyone can still like Haruhi after Endless 8 was so awful.

>>556192024
The disappearance movie makes endless 8 even more worth it. Beat anime movie of all time and you best have watched it

>>556192024
Endless 8 was a masterpiece, real art

>>556190397
Browsing through MMDs until I stumbled across Djeeta's MMD from kinokoru and instantly fell in love with her design ( i don't play GBF ). Cute with armor and a sword. then I imported my FFXIV paladin when I tried XIV out and loved my pompadour.

>>556190397
I tried a bunch, male, female, meme, even from scratch ones.
Gave them percentage ratings on how "right" they felt I'm up to 85%

>>556192219
I did but it doesn't make up for how bad Endless 8 was.
SG did time travel stuff better either way.

>>556190397
I pick what other people like because I have no taste of my own.

If I would make avatars I like, they would be super boring and stale.

>>556192336
lol

>>556190397
i wanted to be the cute boy.

>>556192365
Truth

>>556190397
My waifu. Still looking for someone (preferably Japanese) who can make custom avatars from reference images so I can get a good one of her.

>>556186386
Lol- wrong tab
But also I wouldn't take much stock in the tierlists, half of them are shitposts. And the rest are trash regulars who are at every meet so everyone there is familiar with them. Mileage may vary on how much of a redflag that is

>>556190397
based on a dnd character of mine
