/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #418

My rift is arriving on thursday, and I'm thinking... I've been socializing anonymously for so long, I have no idea what to pick as an avi for VRchat.

Merry christmas!

>>238572642
addendum: The only idea I've got is to maybe pick something abstract (like, non-humanoid), but I don't know what would be available.

>>238573089
Anything is possible if you have a rigged model of it.

https://streamable.com/ypogq

>>238572642
Could always pick the anonymous businessman.

>>238573089
we have anons here who know how to rip from various websites and video games and others who know how to rig it and would probably do it for you

>>238573528
stop bullying the poor doggo
he's a good boy and doesn't deserve the bully

Reminder that dot needs to fucking die and tupper is not banning this fucker on sight hes killing my frames with all his stupid weapons he has on this god awful model, dot has never atlased his models once for a year now and hes too big of a brainlet to even know anything about blender, the only thing this fucker knows his how to make cool shit but not optimize his shit once and i hope one day tupper can legit kill his avatar for good

>>238575083
Pic fucking related i hope you get perma banned dot you sack of shit and i hope tupper kills you for good

>>238573914
Yeah, but even that kind of "non-identity" would just mean that I'm visually associated with 4chan, which I don't mind, but not as a sole identifier.

>>238574296
I'm struggling to think of a fictional character that I identify with enough to use as an avi.
There are plenty of characters that I like, but that's not the same thing.

I'll probably pick something really generic and then change it as my persona develops.

>>238570539 (Cross-thread)
I like it because it's another thing to fiddle with and it feels like you're actually taking a selfie in vr. The magic anti-gravity tripod and tracking features are really nice too.

>>238573089
>>238572642
I just wish it were easier to find avatars

>>238575454
Isn't there some place where people post their creations?

>>238575605
You can get unoptimised hot garbage ready to go from vrcmods,

Late but wanted to make a Christmas avatar anyway, with barely any skills, waste all my free hours on a avatar that doesn't import the mesh when imported to Unity, anybody ever had or heard about this issue?

>>238575949
The fuckhuge bounds are usually because one of the shapekeys got fucked up. Try each one out on the body skinned mesh renderer to check. If any of them turn your mesh into a huge pile of triangles, you'll need to fix it in blender. If it's a face expression shapekey, you can sometimes fix this by separating the face mesh (or any affected parts) out in blender, deleting the offending shapekey on the remaining body mesh, then rejoining the meshes into one.

>>238575083
dot es negro

>>238576267
Welp you were right, I somehow managed to fuck up big time and it looks irreversible since every shape key and body part looks like a fucking spike ball, at least I have a save that is before the fuck up, whatever it was I did, one last question, when atlasing how am I supposed to proceed if I want one separate material, so I can apply transparency to it later (my wings)

>>238578698
Just don't make it part of that atlas? Or make it part of the atlas, create a new material that uses that atlas as a texture, and assign the wing's geometry to that new material. Make that material have a translucent shader.

>>238578698
Did you use that thing on the cats plugin which 'prevents' stealing avatars by fucking the morphs?

>>238578698
Usually the shapekeys fuck up if you accidentally delete part of the mesh (sometimes by decimation, etc) that is affected by the shapekeys. Somehow the shapekey indices get thrown off and that happen. Good thing you have a backup.

For the separate mesh, proceed by atlassing as usual, then once you have a single atlassed material in blender, you can create a second material in the list, assign it to the same atlassed texture and uvmap as the first, then in edit mode, assign parts of the mesh to that new material. Then in unity, you'll have the same second material you can apply a different shader to, but it conveniently uses the same UVs so you can use the same textures.

>>238578698
Just don't select it in the list if you're using cats. Unless you're really going for goodboy points, don't worry about getting down to 1 material.

>>238579093
Wonder how the artist of the model feels that people will be ruining it without paying for the doujin.

>>238579014
>>238579197
I got the idea of creating a new material later using the same atlas, but since my limited knowledge, I'm really lost in the assigning the wings to the new material part, not sure how to assign a specific part of the mesh to that material
>>238579025
Nop, not even worried about it at this point, and I heard somebody talking about how it had a small change it could fuck your avatar up

>>238579265
Multiple materials do have a real use for actual different material effects. One thing on your avatar might be shiny, another might have emission, another might have translucency, another might need double-sided or maybe single sided but would only show on the backfacing. There's lot of reasons one might want multiple materials. Remember, they still consider "good" as 5-8, so you don't have to go insane with requiring 1 material.

What is inexcusable is having multiple unique materials that are just generic textured, white albedo, opaque materials, with the only difference being the goddamn texture. THAT is the type of thing atlasing is made for. Those are all essentially the same material, do not make them extra draw calls for no reason.

>>238579749
It's an option when you're in edit mode on the materials tab, should have buttons saying select, unselect, and assign. Select the wings polygons in the editor normally, then click the assign button on your newly created material.

>>238579986
Or just write a shader using the 4 channels (RGBA) to paint the part of the UV map they're applied to, to apply a different material effect in a different part of the texture without resorting to multiple materials wasting drawcalls.

>>238580156
If there are tutorials out there for this, then maybe. If not, I'm okay with people being around that limit of materials. I'm only annoyed at the people who have 50 materials for no reason, that's really pushing it.

I just merge the twin-tails to one bone because of you optimization whores.

How do I get rid of chromatic aberration

>>238581283
Not using WMR for starters.

>>238581283
It's not going anywhere until someone starts to manufacture HMDs with proper optical glass in the lenses instead of fucking acrylic

>>238581739
>It's not going anywhere until someone starts to manufacture HMDs with proper optical glass in the lenses instead of fucking acrylic
The shit part of that; a CV1 with ground glass lenses would cost $700.

Why the fuck is the last level of Tetris Effect so goddamn hard

I beat the rest of it in like two hours max but I've been stuck on Metamorphosis for days

>>238582781
I just fucking want it out on PC already. That and RE7's VR mode.

>>238582139

I wish Oculus made the lens replaceable. I know some people have had issues where they've scratched them and being able to replace them would be nice. An optional upgrade to ground glass would be cool as well.

>>238583050
I thought they were replaceable? Otherwise you couldn't do prescribed lens.

>>238583154

I believe that those are just attached to the lenses but don't actually replace them.

>>238583154
You just clip it on bro.

>>238580919
Good shit.
I was thinking about having all my hair on one bone but instead changed to short hair and made none of it dynamic instead.

>>238582904
RE7's a lost cause, it'll be out 3 years this January. We'd have heard by now if they were planning anything.

Tetris Effect, on the other hand, is probably coming sometime next year. Rez got ported over (and is one of my favorite VR games), so I'd expect the same.

>>238580919
Try making it so that only the end of the hair is fully weighted to the bone, then it gets progressively more weighted to the head and it goes higher. None of my avatars have dynamic hair so I don't quite know how it'd look, but it could be good for a subtler, smoother effect.

Reminder that people like this is still here

>>238584871
>90 materials
How the fuck do you even manage that?

>>238585159
Not my pic. But this one shocked me

>>238584462
I wonder what doing that but, assuming waist length hair, having the hair be a long gradient between the head and hip bone would act like. I know weighting the hair to the chest is a really cheap way to do it especially if it flows over the shoulders onto the front of the chest but I'm not sure about skipping the chest and just weighting to the head and hips.

>caring about avatar performance
Are all of you poor or something?

GOD I love vr

>>238585361
If it goes all the way to the waist then you probably do want it partially weighted to the hip bone. I wouldn't skip the bones in between, though.

>>238579093
BASED

>tfw got gnomed
what is this stupid meme

>>238579448
from what game or doujin is this model?

I looked through ~20 other avatars and so far haven't seen a single other one with an "excellent" rating.

I thought my stuff was unoptimized crap, but apparently I was the optimization all along. But then who was phone?

>>238587860
Most of the /vrg/ good avatars would be excellent if not for the poly count. 32k is too low for a decently complex avatar.
The fact that it cares about unused bones also pushes a lot of people into good or medium.

>>238587860
I'm pretty close to 64k poly now that I have a new base mode so I'll be very poor. Everything else should be excellent or good though. Granted I only wanted this body to be high poly so I could shrink wrap to it more easily than with my 10k original.

>>238587860
What's this?
A VrcMods optimized model?

>>238587860
the new performance check is unreliable because it includes bound size, animators, particle systems, rigid bodies and more stuff that doesn't affect performance at all. If you have one of that on a bad ranking you automatically get a bad ranking which is total bullshit and whoever thought including that stuff should fuck off

>>238588024
>>238587860
Vchat is going to have a hard time of getting Second Life people to transfer over to VRChat if they make 70k a hard limit that can't be bypassed.
Their avatars are all detailed as fuck, especially in the face decimating them under 70k would be like us trying to take our anime girls down to 10k.
Tupper has kinda hinted that they want the console VR or possibly mobile VR audience by namedropping the "other platform" meme when excusing the 70k limit but if they make it a hard limit they're gonna have trouble getting more people like SL-chan into vrchat or even the content creators of SL and the content they've already created.
The hard limit should be 200k tris because second life avatars can be decimated under that.

>>238589034
I have a feeling that stuff is in there as a preparation for actual gameplay, possibly when Udon releases (lol). Allowing map creators to restrict things like rigid bodies and avatar bounds to make their game maps work might be necessary, but doing it outright would be a shock to the community, so they nudge users with this system first.

>>238589871
Who cares about a bunch of furfags

>>238589987
The same people who care about a bunch of faggots who want to be young anime girls.

>>238589034
You're actually jelly level retarded if you think bound size, animations, particles and rigid bodies don't affect performance at all.

>spend a good thirty minutes talking to a dude
>want to bring them to other people
>neither of us can pierce the dense conversation and he leaves
ow my heart and soul

>>238590517
>bound size
Not the person you're replying to, but I am curious as to how bound size would affect performance. Could you explain it to me?

>>238591462
culling

if your model is big, you are more likely to be always loaded

Anime in around 45 mins
SSSS Gridman Ep12
Goblin Slayer Ep11
SAO Alicization Ep12

>>238591462
If your bound size is huge, you'll always be getting rendered. It's how snail markers make it so the trail can always be seen.

That new guy isn't the furry leader. The furry leader is still Compatible.

>>238593497
>he doesn't know about the Cultmonos

Our meetups are big enough that just a few people are left out. Trying to join a full lobby for an hour until the meetup moves elsewhere is depressing.

>>238594307
Do we really need a second Yuru for NA weekends now? And here's me thinking pavlov's 10 player caps were bad enough.

>>238594307
That's why you go to the Pug, have a drink or two, and get your conversation gears lubed up so you don't have to do that in the meetup.

Why does Yuru use such a fucking obvious voice changer? It's probably one of the most blatant ones I've ever heard, and everyone else is talking in their normal voices, what's the point?

>>238594637
To mask his real voice

>>238594693
But why? Pretty much everyone else at the meetups is using their real voices, is he just that self-conscious?

>>238594307
we gotta rise up
seriously though when it happens just throw an "overflow lobby in public pug #xyz" in the thread like old times

>>238594825
At one point. He's had it off during Pavlov before so I think he's ready to move on, but he keeps it in VRChat because of convention.

>VSS Vintorez now in H3
Holy shit my STALKER raifu is finally in VR.

>>238595419
It was in one of the advent boxes on the christmas map, I played with it a few days ago. There's also a 20 round mag and the folding stock version too.
I basically spent half my day just stacking up empty magazines on that map, camping a part of the snow and speaking in a russian accent about the american pig dogs that I was shooting down.

>>238588940
>3 materials for a cardboard cutout
>optimised

why do mutes become shitposting assholes and stop being cute when they start talking?

>>238594978
Oh, I understand. Glad to hear that, then.

Did you guys celebrate the anniversary of the Ugandan Knuckles?

>>238589871
It's Unity that has the dumb 65535 polygon limit for a single mesh, performance decreases multiplicatively for every added mesh. But 200k poly by itself isn't bad if there's no shader or particles.

god i miss faith

god i miss nope

>>238597626
The 65k limit on a mesh can be bypassed in Unity 2017 though

>>238596514

>>238597626
that was 5.6 limit 2017 beyond has a limit of like 200million per mesh or something ridiculous

>>238598952
So with 2017 we don't have to deal with large meshes automatically splitting up?

Still can't tell if this is bait, a joke, or a butthurt anon, any option is sad and hilarious.

okay, sounded like you were describing something else entirely. i'm an idiot for not realizing what H3 was an acronym for.

Good night /vrg/. I love you all.

>>238599189
The christmas map has snow in it, and I found a place to sit and shoot the spawning hotdogs over and over. I just made it more lively by pretending to be russian.
Only problem is that ironsights are hard to use if I can't close my left eye. The resolution of the default vive makes ironsights pretty tricky on rifles since the sight near the end of the barrel is only picked up on a sub-pixel basis.

Reminder to votekick underage and VRCA niggers

>>238599164
yup exactly

>>238599278
i've narrowed it down i know who you are

>>238599319
does Hotdogs have multiplayer?

>>238599630
It doesn't even have singleplayer, dude.

>>238594490
>Do we really need a second Yuru for NA weekends now?
The meet has needed to be split up for half a year already but everyone is afraid to do so because not only muh official mummy Yuru portals, but even if someone else puts one down, there's always some who run around the entire map shouting PORTAL PORTAL until everyone goes in like the wrangled drunk tards they are, defeating the purpose.
And then if you do accidentally fall behind, it's impossible to just stay and chat with people, without someone going "let's go join back up with the others" the second they notice it's gotten quieter.

>>238599630
It's a firing range simulator with no gameplay to speak of.

>>238599681
>>238600193
yeah I know it's a simulator but damn, I thought you could at least shoot guns with a friend

>>238600324
Well it isn't complete at all. It's open beta prerelease etc etc. It's fun to play in its current state and it's priced appropriately for what you get right now. Hopefully development continues.

>>238600408
I've been doing some research and I my early comment >>238581739 was completely wrong. The main culprit is probably the lens construction itself. It's far more difficult to reduce chromatic aberration on a Fresnel which is why they are so rarely used in optical equipment where colour accuracy is desirable. I expect we'll only see better lenses once we reach high enough pixel densities that the screen door effect is negligible

>>238602448
Maybe a redesign of the concept would work better; like a mirror lens.

>>238602614
This is why I bought a VR device.

>>238602716
Degenerate.

>>238602520
Catadioptrics are expensive to make and you'd end up with a giant blindspot because of the secondary

I haven't been in this game in a while, what's changed lads?

Anyone actually tried the prescription Vive lenses? Considering it.

>>238603119
generic MMD avatars are the worst

>>238603006
I got them and they're pretty good. Don't have to wear glasses anymore so no risk of scratching lenses and the frames don't press into my head uncomfortably when I tighten the straps.
I see as good if not better than with glasses.

Would a multi focal lens increase the belief and sensation of something being real close to your face, or is that dependent on relative size,speed and motion changes of a close object compared to more distant things.

>>238603310
>belief and sensation of something being real close to your face,
I know exactly why you want this. Same reason as me.

>>238603310
Yes and you can just look at the wiki for a list of depth cues that our brain uses to make sense of the depth of what our eyes see.

Should I pull the trigger on a rift or just buy the vive pro

>>238604032
Yes for both, I meant.

>>238604094
It looks like valve is getting ready to announce something VR related, If a new headset is something they announce you might feel like you wasted a lot of cash if the new one is a better suited to your needs. If you are semi rich go for the pro, if poor get rift for now.

>>238604260
Well I heard the rift has been hand motion controls. Would it better just to grab a rift and wait for valve announcement, I doubt they will be bringing out the knuckles for the vive anytime soon.

>>238604684

This is my kind of autism.

>>238604094

>>238604684
I have a vive, but I'd say you should get the occulus because what you're saying is true. The trackpad stuff is kinda shitty(Difficult to be accurate) and stuff is easier to control on the rift controllers.

>>238604684
If you just want something temporary to hold you over the Rift is a good choice. Assuming you'll be upgrading to a new headset in a year or something.

>>238604828
Oh fuck yes. I'm not too into trains but the experience looks great, it looks like a kind of euro-truck sim kind of thing but on trains.

DONT DO IT!

>>238613281
New year New Me!

>>238613186
Would be really cool to hear a mute unmute just the once to shout happy new year

I have recently got VR, is it normal to have this kinda weird feeling after a session. It's hard to describe but kind floaty and my depth perception kinda comes and goes, like my brain is trying to figure out if what im looking at is flat or not.

I can only imagine what this might feel like and the panic it would induce in the future if VR graphics become photo realistic.

>>238613186
Power to you anon, i don't quite get how people can stay mute and not talk but there is a lot of judgement behind speaking so all the power to you

>>238611481
Bote

I'll VRchat with alcohol. Will work fine.

>>238613663
what does bote do?

>>238613771
he won't tell off flat and make him fucking leave

>>238613458
Vergence-accommodation conflict.
Tl;dr of it is that your eyes converge when you focus them on an object, but in VR headsets, there's a fixed focal length equivalent to about 2 meters, so half of what your eyes do to perceive depth is being messed with by that fixed focal length.
Your eyes adapt to the fixed focal length, then when you take the HMD back off, they probably take a little bit to get adapted back to seeing normal reality.
As you get more used to it, it'll probably become less common for you to experience this, and faster for you to adapt to it when you do.

>>238613321
Namedrop.

>>238613458
Yeah. If you wake up in the middle of the night or give yourself sleep deprivation you might actually confuse the real world for VR, I did it a few times and it's awesome, but eventually fades. That floating feeling I still get sometimes though, particularly when I go to bed or wake up from dreams about VR.

>>238613406
Do we even have any full mutes left? Aside from those with text to speech.

>Mutes are now on the brink of extinction
>Legs-less VR users are increasingly becoming endangered
When will our hunger for FBT end?

When a mute talks they die. Forever.
You have to start over and build a brand new relationship with their new talking clone.

>>238615727
How can you build a relationship with someone you can't even talk to in the first place? It's more like they evolve into a higher consciousness, instead of being non-sentient animals.

>>238615727
i wish some stayed mute so I could block their shitty markers

>>238615905
Being mute is definitely a double edged sword, since you don't talk people can only base their judgement on the model you choose and how you act in vr, so they get accepted easier in most cases. However, when they talk they add a new layer of judgement which can pretty much make or break them.

So they're just autistic cowards who can't into socializing. Good to know.

>it’s another mute bullying episode

>>238616232
Kinda hit or miss, some tend to have genuine reasons which i think should be respected but it's true some people are doing it because it's a trend and don't want people to know what they are really like.

Namedrop anons that should have stayed mute.

>>238617748

>>238617181
>genuine reasons
Beyond being physically unable to speak or not knowing English I don't see any other reason to be mute. Not owning a mic is bullshit too because if you have VR you can surely afford a microphone. The Rift even has one built in.

>>238617861
Some people have accent reasons to not speak. I have a friend who couldspeak but does not because people always have to ask him what he's saying and frustrating. It's easier for him to communicate without speaking than by speaking. He's french and pretty much only reads english, so it makes sense his accent is thick if he's rarely if ever spoken english before VRC.

It's cool that your avatars are saved to the cloud. I have so many broken ones.
Though I think we have far too many Gumis for me to use this.

the meet is ALWAYS split for over half a year, its rare for the entirety of vrg to be in one instance most of the time on weekends, its just the secondary is often "unofficial" since its just people converging on each other rather than on a single person

I've never joined on Yuru specifically, I just go where people are, but it helps i have so many people friended

MUTE UPRISING NOW

>>238632046
You mean the deepfocus thing? That does the focal blurring of the image, but it doesn't magically make an existing headset varifocal. The actual focal length of the displays still needs to change somehow, whether it's moving the screen back and forth (oculus' prototype), changing the actual lens focal length (some other prototypes), or wacky lightfield hologram stuff (nvidia's prototypes). And you have to have robust eye tracking to guide the mechanism, which also doesn't exist in consumer hardware yet.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year, the dance crew is here to celebrate the christmas cheer.
So as I say the line, /WHO DANCING SATURDAY NIGHT/ One more time?
/ourDJ/ is spreading the holiday cheer, with a lot of dancing and beer.
It's possibly going to be last dance hours of the year so we're going extra hard you queer. (No offense btw)
So hey (You), are you going to be there too?
It's going to be a slightly more christmas themed event, but as per usual, if you want a song that you'd like to hear,
Reply and we'll put it in.

The dance event will start at 12/29, 1 AM EST / 10:00 PM PST / 6:00 AM UTC (Technically the next day for most people.)
Friendly reminder, please refrain from using dynamic bones.

real mutes only post images, no posts with text outside of replies

>>238633025
not exactly, it changes the convergence via ipd. it's's not moving the screens, it's changing the stereo distance between the images presented to the user as well as using artificial blur.

>>238627861
>>238628926
>>238632329
>>238632576
you shouldn't believe everything you read in the thread

>>238633143, >>238633025

this allows things up close to be nice and clear without adjusting the knob, which is the one innovative thing they did.

>>238632908
What are they going to do? Mime us to death? Please.

>>238633143
source? I'm reading https://www.oculus.com/blog/introducing-deepfocus-the-ai-rendering-system-powering-half-dome/ again, and it still sounds purely like a blurring filter, trained as a neural net. It doesn't mention anything about changing the convergence.

>>238633025
oh, further to that point, that's something you CAN do manually if you're mostly looking at things close to you. On vive you can reduce the ipd adjustment way down so that things you're looking at up close are clearer, then adjust it back again for normal use.
IPD measurement is expected at roughly 6.5ft away, when you're pupils are about right in the middle of your eyes. When things are close you go crosseyed and that works against you and increases chromatic aberration and blur. It's usually best to close one eye and adjust the ipd until you see the SDE or as clear as possible, then close that eye and do the other.
>>238633530
it's in the code, they talk about making it easier to read things up close, which is the only way that would make any sense.

>>238632046
They only solved it in a prototype, and that prototype is getting tossed in favor of the method utilizing mirrors and a micro-HD screen to solve the "Needing a 6K rez panel per eye" problem by having a tiny 1080p tracked screen overlaid a general lower-rez screen which your periphery will see.

Has anyone met someone with that avatar and favourited it or something? I'd like to try it out for a while. Of course, one could just upload it by oneself, but then it wouldn't credit the author as much, and with the new cloning feature it's just more convenient.

Website idea:

You enter your VRChat username and your interests. You're then given a list of other users who have similar interests and can pick a time to hang out in game and talk about those interests or post an "anybody looking to hangout now?" message that would show up in their feed.

Would anybody be interested in something like that?

I'm trying to create a custom avatar as per the old Tupper video, Im done in Blender but now importing it into Unity.

My meshes aren't double sided like they were in Blender, i.e the inside of the skirt is transparent some other things like that.
What do?

>>238652998
Use a shader with double sided rendering.

>>238652998
What shader are you using?

>>238653246
>>238653152
I thought the cubed toon shaders were the goto, at leas that's the one I'm using from the tutorial video.

so oculus users don't appear in the steam statistics right? hard to know the number of people now then

>>238653364
Use noenoe's. Cubed cutout and opaque should be double sided, but transparent isn't, if I remember correctly.

>>238653364
Cubed is only double sided when outlines are turned on. If you want to use cubed without outlines and have it double sided then just set the outline width to 0.
However for a newbies shader I recommend Noe's shader. https://vrcat.club/threads/updated-29-5-18-noenoe-shaders.157/

>>238653364
Set an outline to 0.001 or something small to get double sided mode on with cubed. For some dumb reason it's tied to that.

>>238653483
I would presume they do unless they originally obtained the game through the Cculus store. If you try to run something you've purchased from Steam through Oculus, it forces you to open Steam.

>>238653705

yep that's what I mean, I use the oculus version from the oculus store now

>>238653854
If you've downloaded it through Oculus, you won't be in the stats.

>>238653490
>>238653524
>>238653581
Thanks guys, noenoe's works great.

>>238653483
All they need to do is add a launch parameter to the Steam release to use Oculus API and I'll go back to using that version. The performance bump I got using the Oculus release is too much to give up.

>>238653938
Yup, my playtime stopped tracking when I started using the Oculus version. I'm also seeing a shitload more Visitor rank people lately. It being front-and-center on the Oculus store actually brought in a lot of people.

>>238653152
Does double sided rendering always render both sides, or is it smart about that? Because it'd be a performance hit if so, plus weirdness when someone clips into your avatar.

I fucking love that Marx ava.

Can you fucking autists find something else to talk about at meet ups other then your stupid fucking avatars.

Yes we know you probably wasted a lot of time on it but it would’nt kill you to be a little bit creative.

Anyone else having fun cloning all the cancer avatars in public worlds? Probably the most fun I’ve had in a while on VRChat.

There was a good one that’s got some pretty good animations I cloned today. I think it’s like a Kanna mix, because it was purple clothes, but I forget.

>>238659863
No, but half of /vrg/ have a really good public avatar of it favourited, just ask around

>>238660359
very cool.
I was thinking about doing something like this, (the chair being invisible of course) but I don't have the sound effects you're using in the streamables. <3

this would allow for stacked padoru towers.

>>238660867
That would be funny

>tfw saving up for a specialized camera to do photogrammetry work with to build worlds from
There's fucking something about a 3d photograph of a space that translates very well to VR, and I intend on doing some nature walks to some locations to capture with, although I expect a fuckload of mesh optimization by hand later.

>>238660867
Oh, there's no chairs on the one we're using

>>238661612
I know, I'm putting one in. XD

The netcode for the SUR1V3 update is great. Co-op is smooth as singleplayer and vs is on the way. can't wait for more maps

MMD shader with a generated normal map.

>>238661793
>generated
What's this? A normal map you downloaded somewhere that's valid for clothes or something?

>>238659561
Sure thing! Would you prefer the latest locally grown soap opera gossip and mulling over the quality of the community? If not, your other choice is talking about how drunk and high you are from all the alcohol and drugs you use every night.
And don't forget the timeless classic of "How are you?" "Good. You?" "Me too". The twist at the end always gets me.

>>238661878
You can generate normal map estimates based off of the underlying texture, but it looks like shit a lot of the times.

>>238661793
What shader is the one from that pic using? Why does only the body receive shadows? Is it using different shaders for the body and the head?

>>238661878

Thanks

>>238662057
Did you have to take a lot of time separating out sections to keep from strange behavior or did the whole thing just kinda run, silver bullet, sure thing type deal?

>>238661345
Real life into VR is amazing. The amount of detail naturally lighted and subsurface light interactions of real stuff BAKED into the textures of a 3d photograph adds some really nice wow factor for any VR map that uses it.
Some of our guys went to a vrchat map created from a real museum photo. Was bretty cool.

>>238661345
What sort of specialized camera is there for photogrammetry?

Is there an easy way to quickly join a clique or isolate yourself with certain people? I hate being ignored and being awkwardly alone because people would rather hang out with their vrfu or old friends.

>>238659659
I scan every world Im in and steal everyones avatars like a 15 year old with his first day of vrcheat

>>238659659
I take high quality avatars back to my home world and check them for weight painting infetterance infront of my mirror

>>238665967
Just force yourself into a group. Hang out with who you think you like and orbit them hardcore.

Anybody know of some good hypnosis stuff for VR?

>>238665967
>>238667384
Enjoy free floating and just getting to know everyone. You'll fall into a group eventually.
To be honest, I was a lot happier when I was floating free. Keep people at arm's length for as long as you can.

>>238673180
I see, that makes a lot of sense!

>>238672778
Small talk is peak normie. There's no reason to not just talk exclusively about things that are actually interesting, despite the mental block around it; the sense that it's wrong to just randomly start talking about something without a reason.

>>238672778
I had a period of my life where I was highly social, and none of it came naturally.

The key is basically this: Every day, think of an answer to "how are you doing" or "what are you up to" that is NOT "Fine" or "Not much".
Even if the answer relates to your interests, that's fine, just keep the answer under 30 seconds.
This creates a baseline amount of content to build a conversation.

The trouble isn't having conversations, its starting them.

>>238673552
It should be a faux pas to even ask 'how are you'.

>>238673491
That's all well and good if you're a shut-in and you only talk to niche people about your niche interests, but for interaction with the real world and its randos, you need a universal approach.

Did you ever get into a nod fight with a mute?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNLrWS5Eayc

Samsung Odyssey Plus
Vive
Oculus
I can only choose one. What would be the best choice

>>238673692
There's nothing wrong with the question if anything resembling a real answer is given.

Think of conversation like improv.
When somebody gives you a little scrap of information to work with, you "Yes and" with a question or opinion.

>>238673770
>Did you ever get into a nod fight with a mute?
Yes... yes, I did...

Millions died.

>>238673808
Rift is best overall.
Vive is best if you want to spend all day in VRchat with full body tracking.
Odyssey is probably best for things like flight sims.

>>238673808
Odyssey+ if you care most about resolution
Vive if you want easier FBT and maybe knuckles eventually
Rift for the best controllers out right now and easier access to Oculus exclusives

>>238673857
Honest answers are forbidden. Your solution is to just deflect the question. It's a terrible question that should never be asked.

>>238673808

Vive has the most native software and pretty much works with everything
Rift has the best tracking overall and the best controllers until the Knuckles come out for Vive
Odyssey+ has the best visual fidelity but the tracking isn't as good (though considering I got it for $300 it's good enough)

I'd just go with the Rift, even though it means giving Zuckerjew more shekels.

>>238672778
I feel like this is just some old boomer philosophy
but asking how to do simple things is not how you do simple things, jump into the ring you will be smacked down but what did you lose? made to look a fool on the internet in front of a stranger?

>>238674036
>>238674405
>>238674157
so if i want the best tracking. I'd go for rift?
does it work with steam games too? hoping for just standing and sitting playing really

>>238673770
>I'm not losing this battle!
>[................]
>I'm going crazy, man!

>>238674157
Knuckles work on oculus

>>238674620

SteamVR works with the 3 main headsets, though IIRC you need to install some plugin for Rift/Windows Mixed Reality in order to make them work with Steam. Once you've set that up, you might have to load up Occulus Home first and then SteamVR, but then you can launch pretty much everything from SteamVR anyway.

>>238674620
Tracking is not a concern on any of them, aside from Odessey cannot track behind you. There are no Vive exclusives.

>>238674862
I guess that'd make sense if you're running a hybrid setup. I think I'd recommend an Odyssey+ for the better screen though if that was the plan.

>>238675013
>though IIRC you need to install some plugin for Rift/Windows Mixed Reality in order to make them work with Steam
Not at all. SteamVR has full WMR support(outside controllers, for some reason), and you just have to check a box in Oculus to allow 3rd party apps.

>>238674405
>Rift has the best tracking overall
I can't even aim straight in contractors because my sensors simply miss my controllers for some retarded reason

>>238674862
How? They have to connect to a Vive headset.
>>238675191
You shouldn't have such issues. Ensure your sensors are actually set up usefully. I used to only have one covering most of my playspace because the other two were too low down.
https://www.wearvr.com/apps/desk-scene-check-your-camera-bounds

Has anyone made NSFW mods for blade and sorcery yet?

>>238675191
Sounds like you need to set your sensors up better.
>>238675138
Yeah, it works just like setting up trackers, really simple. In fact, it actually works better on Oculus on games that don't support knuckles and run the legacy input system(like vrchat) because for some reason Steam's input system doesn't let you set it up exactly like a rift controller unless you're using a rift headset. I have no vive to confirm this, this is just hearsay from people who are using them on vive. I do agree though, if you're doing hybrid with knuckles, go with the odyssey+, I plan on it.

>>238675191
Also, remove all reflective surfaces. I didn't notice it was a problem until I had my controllers randomly jerking in Pavlov.

>>238675419
Knuckles connect using watchmen dongles, like trackers and wands do. I flashed two steam controller dongles to be watchman dongles, and it works great.

>>238675191
Something's wrong, mate. Both systems are submilimeter when functioning properly.
t. Rift Contractors player

Haven't been on vrchat in months and noticed Unity got update. What has changed in unity and how fucked am I with my old models?

>>238675419
Petty cool app, I had a rough idea already but actually being able to see it is pretty cool but again it just confirm my saying, I'm well covered with my two sensors
>>238675497
How so? I have both on my desk, the only difference is the one on my right is on top of the PC
>>238675539
I have a light fairly close to my head, maybe 6 ft away, could this be it?
>>238675648
then something is definitely wrong with my setup, every time I aim right my controller simply stops tracking, I'm right handed like the majority of people and I thought my left arm was in front of the sensor and maybe that's why I was losing tracking so often? its useless, when playing shooting games I can only use my left to shoot

>>238677181
Strong lights interfere. You need to put them higher up if your arm can block it. I'd advise not using a front facing set up in the first place.

>>238677181
If you're only using two sensors I'm going with occlusion problems.

>>238673770

hope your doing well /vrg/! been working on maps and reshading avatars all day. hopefully the alley will make a good return as soon as Christmas is over. expect a larger map with more to do. maybe a nice improvised race track around the map

I need a model for some shit like this.

>>238681672
Cut Em out. Make it a 2dpng and boom easy

Any of you niggers have trouble with Gorn on Oculus? I am using 10% of my room right now just to test some games but it feels weird not being able to rip off limbs or pick up a dude by the arm mid swing with my bare hands, movement is weird too. Also for some reason I'm sunk to the floor, I tried In Death and this didn't happen, gameplay was smooth and the floor distance was right, only complain is my arm hurting from having to hold that bigass bow so far for the arrows to have any effect

>>238681281
I ported most of my important shit to 2017.4.15. I was going to finish more overrides, but if I didn't take a break I wasn't going to get any screen time tonight.

Excited to have gotten stuff done though.

Contractors server when?

>>238687134
when it works that way unfortunately

>>238679251
Cool.

The name contractors, especially with that dollar sign at the end implies something that the game currently is not.
Was it stated by the devs anywhere that there would be some form of cash system in the future, or a game mode where money is involved, or possibly even story missions of some sort?

sweet. i hate the cropping vrchat does

>>238693457
who cares tho
just like
open the menu senpai
a "drop image here" prefab you set at 0,0,0 in Unity and throw images on for your avatar would be nice though

>>238693938
It's why I made it originally, because I'm autistic about framing. I should make one for worlds one day, since that camera's also different.

>>238694038
That's what it does too, that's the main point. But it's nice when you have optimized versions and unoptimized versions of an avatar, so you can remember at a glance. I'll leave the simple ones I used to use if you don't wanna accept vrchat's rating.

>>238694171
The "who cares tho" was to public logos and cloning shit, people just check in person anyway
The main picture frame idea is good and convenient

>>238694416
It was a request, there's a few icons I don't use at all but some do.

If you've got a backlog of any kind (anime/vidya, hobbies, school, chores, errands) just do that instead. I'm actually having trouble getting BACK into VR because it's so hard to multitask with.

>>238697326
Your avatar can only be cloned if you make it public and have a setting in your ingame menu checked to allow cloning of your avatar.

So if I want to show what someone wearing a rift is seeing on a TV in a living room, do I just set up said TV as a mirrored display in Windows? Or would it be better to just use the TV as the actual monitor instead? Is there another way?

>>238698613
You have nowhere else to go

>>238698613
For the same reason you came

>>238698173
Lots games will let you choose what to output, third person/first person/blank. Most probably just pick one eye and show that. There's a program that comes with the rift setup that called OculusMirror that displays whats being sent to each eye, so it works outside of games.

>>238697619
Is there something wrong with your dash? I find it pretty easy to watch movies and drive a truck in vr. I just wish you could lock windows to the watch slot for a wrist mounted display

https://youtu.be/gtdFA-LJDLc

Anons I need help. I've been using rift with extension cables for almost a year now but somewhere during summer-fall rift stopped working with them consistently and it's getting worse and worse with every day. It's at a point where I'm on a 4th extension cable atm and none of them work anymore. What is going on, why does this happen? It used to work fine so how can it just not work anymore? Nothing on my PC changed. What am I supposed to do now as I can't play without extension cables?

>>238699436
Topics can be pretty much anything that wouldn't shock you too much, from avatars to maps to hobbies to anime to movies to holidays to how they've been etc, usually people are just happy to chat back and forth if they have difficulty being social someone has to take on the role of prompter and keep the conversation alive, unless of course you have both transcended small talk and can be chill with just body language and occasional few words

>>238699834
Then could it not just be your rift's cable or the rift itself?

So these just arrived, and apparently they're a new revision with a bunch of changes. Got an e-mail from the creator making it sound like I'm just about the first person to own one of these, so figured I'd post them.
Happy to answer any questions, although I don't own an older pair to compare them to.

>>238701814
The gear itself.

>>238701918
Can you unstrap the Velcro and take a pic of the scratchy side of the feet straps? On the first revision they don't extend far enough into the strap and make it hard to keep the straps snug on my feet.

>>238702021
Sure thing. Like this?
I've heard from friends that the previous version never got tight enough on people's feet, and that was supposedly a common issue. These feel like I can tighten it enough to cut my blood circulation, and still have plenty room left.

>>238701332
Imagine paying $1500 for that Cirno model. It doesn't even look better than many F R E E models on Nico 3D.

>>238702164
That's about 30% longer, so it's an improvement, thanks.
Previous version didn't have those grippy dots to hold the tracker on, either.

>>238702174
It was made free from someone to Tupper. You're right about it not looking any better though
