/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #434

>not making an anniversary edition thread
ONE
FUCKING
JOB

Just read an article about the differences in compute power between Quest and regular PCs, and it's mostly all basically what you'd expect, where it's a big difference, but not the CPU. In CPU, the performance of the Quest's actively cooled 835 actually about equals a VR min spec's (FX4350). This really makes me think.

Particularly, I wonder if this could mean it would be possible for a future version of a more optimized VRChat (with semi-segregated populations) to run fine on this. I mean, most of the problem in VRChat has been on the CPU, while the GPU has been relatively relaxed. Or rather, it's not like you see great graphics in VRChat most of the time. It should be entirely possible to run on mobile if you just optimize a bit more and put a filter on mobile users' eyes.

>>240622283
An optimized version with very limited avatars and worlds could theoretically run on it, but I can't imagine it'd be a good experience. Remember that an ideal VR experience is 90fps, and you can't even get that consistently with PC hardware.

>>240622283
Its late as fuck so I dont have the energy to sit here and go through the whole thing but
While theres no real way or reason to compare the Quests chipset directly to PC, ARM is moving in a direction that will eventually culminate in standalone headsets playing the same games as PCVR, but compiled for ARM instead. Some very exciting things happening for ARM, you should look it up. The big problem with ARM, being GPU performance, is primarily due to design compromises than any architectural problems. Making a high performance gaming ARM SoC requires only the will to do so. Youd even be able to turn shaders on properly. For now though, just expect a slightly higher fidelity Go or Gear with proper 6DoF, which is plenty for a good number of different games.

Theoretically you could run a VRChat-like game on it, but it would require a radical redesign of how VRChat works. "A bit more" won't do.

You can now watch virtual celebrity TV with your virtual friends in VR.

God I wish I was better at talking. It's been months and I still suck.

/vrg/ done quick

Three people add Yuru, join the meetup and speedrun to see who can become inner circle the fastest.

>>240627879
Watch people in public worlds interact with it each other and treat it as research into the social interactions of alien species, try to figure out the patterns of behavior they have and make mental notes, i learned a lot from watching people talk and it helped see what not to do when talking to people

>>240628297
Casual conversation is easy just make your objective into having a pleasant conversation with the other person, to get past that find people who you have easy time talking to and who like to talk to you

>>240628391
>Casual conversation is easy
>Just find people who you have easy time talking to
Not that guy, but sometimes it aint just that easy. I had absolutely no friends in the past and finally got to motivation to be something in this world one day, working hard to improve myself and be social everyday, it took a year for me to find a friend. It's way more easy in VR, but depending on the person it may not actually be easy

>>240628631
Casual convo can be as simple as sitting in front of a mirror saying a few words every 20 sec, just practice in great pug or something and remember to keep your convo nice, helpful or funny, you will eventually run into pubbies that are rude but if you shrug it off and keep being nice people usually respond in kind, just think of convos like pong with pleasant feels

>>240628927
Fuck you nigger, I never considered buying any of this weeb shit but that looks cute and I'm now I'm on that website.
>>240629179
I'm actually sorta fine in VR, I don't really have any proper friends which I have conversations with but the little bits of talking and large amounts of interactions(Headpats etc)provides me enough socialization to keep me sane and happy.

Knee deep in the dead.

>>240627879
It's ok, anon. I pretty much can't function being social in VR without being at least tipsy. It's a struggle, but know you're not alone

>>240627879
Literally just say hello. Is it that fucking hard? Hello? H- E - L - L - O? HOW CAN IT BE THAT HARD DO YOU NOT KNOW HOW TO PSEAK????? ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED SERIOUSLY TFUCK OFF JUST FUCKING SAY HELLO PIECE OF SHIT

>>240633357
Yeh you're exactly right xd Guess I gotta embrace it

I haven't imported a model since February, is Tupper's megatutorial still accurate?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iiqf2R462lo

>>240645189
Yeah

>>240641764
oh, and for anyone shitposting on DigitrevX and Saying tupper paid too much? Digi did a lot of the 3d for this, it's airing on tokyo-mx, and amazon prime video. If you think 1500 for 20-40 hours work is too much you probably still live with your parents.

>>240645324
Any updates I need to pay attention to, or ways things have changed since then? I remember seeing something before I dropped off about cloth physics eventually replacing dynamic bones where skirts are concerned.

VRC is probably not healthy for me. I'm prone to crushing on people easily, and the last thing I need is to be surrounded by tons of cuties who actually pay attention to me. I'll be so busy talking myself down that if anyone ever does flirt with me, I'll convince myself it's all in my head.

>>240645421
Tupper just did what some cosplay autists do but for VR it's no different then other hobbies lmao. People just under value hard work for a quality product.

>>240645421
Digi is as pro as you're gunna get for 3d modellers, he literally modelled mirai akari, so if anything that price is more than fair

>>240642840
it's arbitrary to make a vr title in unity OR unreal mobile, if your textures are small and your meshes too.
Let's not forget Stand Out has 2006 era graphics.
In fact, vrchat would run fine on mobile too, as long as they stripped support for dynamic bone and automatically replaced all models over 4 draw calls and 20k poly with some kind of default or just used default shaders.
Arm devices are fast as fuck now my dudes. A snapdragon 835 and above is MUCH faster than a Geforce 560Ti and a 1st gen i5, for example, and way more parallel. Once the 7nm chips are out it's possible we'll start seeing them in "desktop class" devices.
Ironically if samsung and Qualcomm were inclined they could produce a desktop class processor just by adding a shitton of cooling, the IPC on those devices is currently as high or higher than the most recent cpus, but they're not as fast in single threaded tasks, you need to compile for the architecture.
Unity and unreal do that automatically though.

The fuck is with the Digiwhatever shilling in the last month or so?

>>240645807
>tupper buys model from digi
>people find out price

https://youtu.be/cd8e2ECUHL4

>>240645563
tell that to over half the thread yesterday.
>>240645807
it's just organic, actually, because Tupper has a really amazing looking custom commissioned robo cirno model that he can use in an official capacity now.
He also made the Seisoken City map in vrchat and is working on a huge budget anime project now.
It's a pretty cool thing that some vrchatters are making it big, hell even drumsey made 1 fucking million subs the other day somehow.
Watching vrchat is more popular than vrchat itself, even the twitch subcatigory has almost a million followers despite only 2k max viewers at any given moment.
It's a pretty big deal, though it does mean it's going fairly mainstream, at least with nihongos.

>>240645727
Believe me, I understand the technical details of them doing it (I'm actually looking into low cost SLAM experiments)
But it's still out of left fucking field. Shouldnt he be fixing War Dust? And apparently Nolo paid for the port lmao

>>240646430
oh wow. Nolo needs to release a dedicated tracker for just lower body and they would be swimming in money, they have the knowhow.

>>240646575
I mean not really. Anybody can make trackers. They're a mobile company though.

>>240646721
>Still no alternative to the 3 extra vive trackers for FBT
We're being price gouged but no competition has stepped up.

Been trying to make colliders work on avatars to make them fly but so far it only makes me fly straight up, does anyone have any insight in how to make you fly forward while in the air?

>>240647107
I'm p sure PSmoveservice can be used for trackers. I haven't tried it but I already have a high angle camera constellation for it.

>>240647107
I've literally been sending messages to different hardware mfg all over, the most recent one being a company in canada that has actually accurate 3dof + proximity sensor via EM with no external tracking.
For some fucking reason waterloo ontario is a hotbed for VR tech. https://www.ndigital.com/
The university there is fucking ALL IN on studying it.
>>240646721
>anyone can make trackers
I know! that's the stupid part, all the code for 6dof sensor fusion with a 3dof imu and one other source for precision is OPEN FUCKING SOURCE and making a device for the steamvr driver service is easy as fuck, that's why massively underskilled devs like greg from driver4vr were able to pull it off using input emulator.
SteamVR now supports setting literally ANY tracked device as a vive tracker using the controller remap feature, built right the fuck in, but nobody has made a sub 300 dollar solution yet for FBT. I worry that the money in cheap commercial mocap is too lucrative so nobody is willing cut the legs out from under that industry by providing a dirt cheap 5 point FBT solution using inverse kinematics that isn't a kinect to literally fucking everyone.
Fuck I would kill for some time off to build one myself, I could make a mint just on the kickstarter alone.

tier list male avatars

>>240647596
it can, yes. Anything that creates a tracked object in openvr/steamvr can be a tracker now, that's why driver4vr and kinect2vr through input emulator made DK1 vivewands in the past.
in fact, it's possible to use a standard RGB webcam to track full skeleton with a ton of accuracy using OpenCV now, a pre-trained CNN solved the accuracy issue.
obviously the faster the camera the better it is, but running on the cpu is really taxing.
If someone put it in an SOC, like for example the razer rgbdIR camera and anything that does windows hello could take that pre-trained model and get it off your cpu (without needing a tesla compute card) you could build a micro tracking device in a usb 3.0 120fps camera that does full body.
In fact, microsoft could even release standalone controllers, all three competing companies just need to release their version of a vive puck. I don't know what's taking so long, HTC has probably made more money off the pucks than they did off the headset, they cost less than 30$ to produce judging by the "hive tracker" project, WHICH IS ALSO OPEN SOURCE...
I also never got any confirmation from those guys if the tracked devices show up in steamVR and can be used natively as tracking pucks. It's like they don't understand english
If they can be, then a 30$ wireless tracker already exists that uses a cr2032 button cell.

Is there a way to run DnD/Pathfinder games in VR Chat?

>>240648653
sure, just make a map dude. Peek through the wall in "murder" to see how they do RND generation, it's pretty amazing. ;)

>>240648761
RND?

>>240648613
1: Pineapples
2: who cares

>>240648876
Murder requires some psudo-random number generation to set up the murderer, and they had to do that within the strict constraints of VRchat's neutered access to unity.
It's worth the surprise to check it out yourself, but:
they use physics bouncing balls as people get on and off the platforms to set it up! It's almost as random as it gets, and quite frankly 8000iq level cool.

little primer from the company that makes the IR sensors in lighthouse tracking.

>>240647596
>>240649814
the sad part is the TS3633-CM1 Castellated Module is cheap as everloving fuck (6 bucks) and 4 or 6 of them on a 3d printed module with something like a pro-micro and a 3dof IMU is exactly what hive-tracker did.
HTC charges around 100 fucking bucks for a puck with a battery, a few of these, a pogo connector and a 2.4ghz wireless module with a watchman chip in each, which is why they work without the headset.
You could technically write that function onto a raspberry pi or similar, and thread it out with a single battery and some usb to each of the devices instead. Imagine a Rpi you clip on your belt with a little wire that goes to each tracker. Would work fine, and would only be 1 battery. They would be light as fuck and not flop around either.
Someone just needs to make some vrslippers/vrcrocs and a belt and we could have lower body tracking for like 100 bucks all in.
Dunno why this isn't a thing yet.

Do assets in a world have fixed/uneditable values once players inhabit the world?

>>240645460
Different Unity and VRChat SDK version. Rest is mostly the same. There's new performance metrics in the form of avatar stats, but that's details.

>>240650698
not at all, you could set that up using triggers and an animation state machine easily, and there already a lot of adventure-style maps. Try doing a solo run of the "Dark Waters" world some time, it's a good example of the crazy shit you can do in VRC already.

>>240650698
VRC-trigger is limited to what udon will probably be able to do (and it's not full scripting) but you can do "if this then that" style loops with state machines on animators (as long as they're set to local as to not lag everyone) If wanted to make the encounter have a random difficulty though you could do something similar, but a state machine hidden under the map would be enough, it would just depend on which state the encounter was in when they pressed the button.
You can actually pull off a ton with vrchat animations + triggers. Triggers can be invisible "zones" that go off in a "playonce" style when someone walks through or over something, even.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kKlw0i3rBs just an idea of the kinds of things that are possible.
there's a pickups and weapons and vehicle system and player damage already in the game.
VRChat devs have been focused on putting out fires of their insane growth over the last year, but they intended it to be Oasis level ready player one "games inside games".

>>240652746
This is a good thing.

>>240635658
>that image
5k Plus and 8k take the same input resolution, so there's no difference in GPU load between them.
I don't know what the 8k BE is, but if it's what they were calling 8k X before then it takes the full resolution of its panels as input.

>>240652746
In my experience, namedrops aren't usually a good thing.

>>240653231
I've stuck my face in a pimax 8k.
It's light as fuck.
it's fucking glorious 8k and 180-200ish FOV and sharpness is absolutely insane.
The pimax 5k+ uses a pixel packing diffuser and has no SDE, is as sharp or sharper than the samsung od+ and quite a bit lighter than every other headset, you would be very surprised.
Their software sucked, and they have no async warping yet. I don't know if they can use steam's yet on nvidia, but probably.
You need a 1070ti minimum.
They plan on releasing their own.
They built in OVR runtimes and can do oculus stuff natively.
it's a good headset if you need a replacement for your vive and have some money to blow, and you're patient with their software stack. or know what you're doing. It's a niche product now, but no more complicated then windows mixed reality shit was early on with debugging.
If you're a technical person, you'll love it.
having the wider FOV makes so much of a difference I have no idea why it wasn't like that from the beginning on EVERY headset. Might have been the cost of lens tech. Optics are hard.

>>240653621
dude, just go on vrcmods.com and upload your own if you can't be assed to make one yourself.
it's as simple as drop into unity, hit "build/upload control panel" done.

>>240635658
>>240653231
Supposedly BE stands for business edition. The color is supposed to be better on the 5K BE because of the OLED screen at the cost of a little more SDE, but you're just paying for business support with the 8K BE.

>>240653787
The 5kplus does not have a diffuser and the BE is an OLED 5k with bad SDE.

try shonzo's world?

>>240654141
have lots of friends, favorite some worlds and avatars, don't stay muted, interact with interactables, go through portals people make, make your own portals and have people join you, mess with settings in the menu, hang out in active worlds, try to get into friends only and friends+ instances, get no reports or kicks during that time, launch the game a bunch of times over several days and play for a bit actively rather than idling.
they don't say exactly what causes the rating to jump to prevent people from gaming the system but it has to be within the constraints of what the game itself can detect, so you can use the shotgun approach and do literally everything the game offers you to be able to do as fast as possible so it ramps up fast.
Another quick way is to go to in game events or busy rooms.
I do have a feeling interacting with vrctriggers is something they check for too.

>>240654204
good world, but just not slutty enough

What even is "The Gallery"?
I see it recommended a lot but what's the game like? And is it still good or is it one of those games that was really cool when Vive didn't have a lot of games but has now been passed?

>>240654569
it's good, but short. it's like those 90's adventure games where you're mostly exploring and solving puzzles. puzzle design is solid and they do a good job with atmospherics and worldbuilding, but expect it to be over in 4-5 hours.

>>240654049
well they've done something with pixel packing that gives it almost no sde.
it might be AMOLED rgb, and a better focal point on the optics. I've heard that it can vary from person to person and screen to screen.
Apparently the 8k looks even better than this most of the time.
Also through lens pictures have a fair bit of zoom and are only 2d, don't forget, using both eyes gives a slightly less SDE experience in reality, pictures don't do justice but it gives you an idea.
You can actually reduce the SDE a little on your own by making one lens slightly off your IPD while the other is sharp, and that can also be done in software using MSAA to do some tricks to blend the sde.

>>240654498
>don't stay muted
Oh god please no.

But, other than that, I do most of that stuff.
I am only on day four of VR, so I can't expect to rank up that fast.
Still, it would be nice to at least be a user by now instead of a visitor.

>>240654712
Is it just puzzle solving or do you also have to like fight things?

>>240654569
>>240654712
it's as close to AAA as early VR got, they did -everything- right.
The gallery PT 2 is way the fuck longer and really good too, but they're very expensive for 5-10 hours total gameplay if your're going for achievements and take the time to soak it all in.
Once Viveport becomes like netflix (happening soon), if it's a good monthly price that'll be a good place to play it.

>>240654204
>>240654504
I feel the same.

>>240654941
no explicit combat, at least in part 1. I still haven't tried part 2

>>240654869
I know people who've ranked up in 2 days.
Chat is literally the name of the game. they expect you to make sound.
You could use an AI voice on line-in from a second sound card even.
>>240654941
just puzzles, but the game is really pretty and well made.
It's quite a bit like a short "myst" for example.

oh also, don't be using a steam account.
you need to be logged in from vrchat.net
using a steam account makes it REALLY slow for whatever reason.
it's even possible with interacting with your profile page might tick a box in the things that make you a "user"

What's a good co-op multiplayer game for three lads to play? I've heard pic-related is good but is it just two player or can you do three?
Also one person has a Rift and the others Vive if that makes a difference

Hintdrop old avatars you want to see for the anniversary.

What about VRSlaves?

Its about time they implemented VRHandcuffs and VRMuzzles

>>240655408
1) makes no difference if you're rift and vive, or windows mixed reality or pimax or bridging an old avatar or what the fuck ever, as long as you can access the steamvr dashboard in a headset you can play together.
2) that question is VERY up to personal taste. Not a ton of co-op stuff exists right now, unironically vrchat has a ton of co-op activities, try the halloween event world.
3) as for actual games?
Contractor$ and pavlov and onward are rooty shooty milsim co-op vs other people, or co-op scenarios.
QuiVR, IronWolf (maybe just 2?) serious sam fusion and vr is currently well liked here and co-op for the campaign, rec room, climbey, serento, raw data, sprint vector, Overturn: final operation will probably be popular, payday 2 which you probably already own, star trek bridge crew, new retro arcade neon, catan vr, gunheart, battlezone gold edition, seeking dawn, The Experiment: Escape Room is a fun 5bukk one I haven't seen mentioned here that's good for a laugh with friends once or twice.

So far I have 45 props and about 70 photos for each month! Thanks to every who's contributed so far.

If you're yet to contribute the deadline is this Sunday, 13th January. Send the below to me on Discord: Shammy#5256

Props: Give me a prop of something of yours such as something from your avatar or something from your world.
Please give it me as a prefab, it makes it so much easier. To do that in Unity put the item in your scene and set it up how you want it, drag that item from the scene's hierarchy into the folders at the bottom - this makes a prefab. Right click the prefab and click export package and give me the .unitypackage file it creates.

Photos: Give me 1-3 of your favourite photos from each month. Label them up so I know what month they're from. Please zip them.

>>240655627
VRslaves need a VRmaster too, just like a VRpet but with some differences

>>240656170
Thanks, I'll check some of those out. Any particular Rec Rooms you recommend?

>>240657881
All the quest ones are fun with friends, the castlevania esque one is pretty neat. I recommend going in private groups all the time, kids are annoying and the game is cross platform with psvr.

>>240658221
>>240657881
Seconding the quests, they're all quite fun for a free game, solid dungeon crawling. They're 3-4 player max anyway, but you can create private rooms to keep out the kids.

Who needs real people anymore? Honestly
Provided I have power, the internet and VR, I am completely content with my only physical interactions with people being when I go shopping.

>>240659536
what's the kickstarter for?

>>240659990
Why on earth would you need to leave the house to shop? Do you have amazon prime? Almost everything you could need can come from there, and subscribing to a meal a day fresh food delivery program can make it so you LITERALLY never need to leave the house.
I'm not suggesting you do it, but it's possible!
Stay fit in beat saber or whatever. Then, once you're established find another work from home vrfu to share your expenses and live the rest of your days in virtual reality, upgrading as time goes on.
Sounds pretty comfy.

>>240660192
This is what life SHOULD be in the future, if everything goes right. Except for the wagecucks who have jobs that need to be on-location.

>>240660192

>>240660356

>>240660192
>>240660447
This WILL be the future for a large amount of the population, especially as technological advances, urbanization and population increase. Companies are already building and implementing new methods that enable this shit for people, Ubereats for example, I never use it, but all of the normie friends I have which used to go out to cafes and crap for food leave the house half as much as they used to since it came out. Just consider the average life of someone 100 years ago to today, we are getting close to the point most people will be shutins.

i don't think i quite have the autism for a single player train simulator, but it'd be way comfy if it was coop and anime.

>>240660447
totally, any sort of digital job right now has no need to be on site, and the cost savings of not running an office are huge.
I have my own office and got a couch and painting s and such and it's pretty comf, and I live 5 minutes from my office.
If I had to travel any more I would have a way worse work life balance I'm sure, but I know the costs of operating out of a couple small facilities cost my company dearly every year.
If I worked literally anywhere else I would probably be looking for something I can do from my own office.
The downside is that employees tend to work less professionally and efficiency when there isn't people in the same building as them that can spring on them at a moment's notice.
VR however can give some of that back, and the difference is marginal at that point.
VMachines running on virtual screens is something we can do in vr RIGHT NOW with big screen, You could even host ACTUAL systems that IT could monitor and administer from a virtual space, and it would allow for 3d visualization and whiteboarding way beyond what you can do right now with tools like one-note, outlook and skype for business, and other project tools like slack and such.

So I'm putting the final touches on my 3DCM custom avatar for VR chat, I've got rid of the shitty lighting halo on the hair and parented the accessories properly.
is there anything else I should keep in mind?

Is Ashei literally the greatest anime girl in virtual reality general history?

I remember seeing this earlier and added it to my wishlist but I missed it going on sale.
around 70 good reviews, anyone played it?
It's co-op apparently.

>>240661846
yep, probably! Virtual Reality little witch academia brought them to this level.
Great job ashei.

>>240661846
Is it still getting updated? The map honestly if pretty great, unlike the majority theres actually crap to do and you have a reason to do it too.

>>240661846
The map is well made and interesting. Although most of the avatars are other vrg peoples'.

>>240660738
>muh human labour
We're already at the stage where most jobs are just keeping up the appearance of doing something productive. I don't know how anyone who has ever had a job can actually believe in the 'efficiency' of capitalism.

>it's an other episode of ashei samefagging

>>240661846
Ashei's satire of attention whore culture is truly a art.

So whats the deal with the anniversary meet up? Is it tonight? Or all weekend?

>>240662323
I prefer it to the other kinds of shitposting that goes on here desu.

>>240662672
big celebration is tomorrow night, but we'll probably have anons in their old avatars and visiting old worlds all weekend.

>>240625961
>"IT" button on dress
explain?

>>240662276
there is great value in human intelligence and creativity now, almost zero value in labour tasks. VR will allow for CHEAPER human labor of programming and operating robots and setting up Automation. Automation has made menial jobs pointless and expensive to be done by humans, and the rapidly lowering costs of robotics is going to basically render all physical human labor obsolete.
However, if you're smart enough to provide real value to society, you should be compensated far the fuck more than some brainlet in velcro shoes who can't learn new things.
Capitalism isn't fully "efficient" in a post industrial society, no, but giving people equal pay for unequal effort isn't going to fly either.
We can be socially responsible for people who lost the genetic lottery or who want to check out from participation through health and welfare programs but we cannot do that by simultaneously taking away someone's right to earn more.
There's something everyone is good at that wouldn't be considered a "job" 10 years ago.
E-sports and other e-entertainment like v-tubers is ironically probably the answer for people who aren't talented in programming, art, or 3d. Other things like "overseer" of robotics or "remote robotic operator" in trucks and such I think will be the future.
Eurotruck simulator could also be "actual truck driver" and as long as you had self driving fallbacks to protect against connection problems you could LITERALLY operate 24/7 365 delivery services with real people sitting at home with a wheel, gloves and headset, AND it would be cheaper and safer than developing AI to do it at least for the first little while.

>>240662276
>>240663168
can we not make another off topic discussion that belongs somewhere else

>>240662276
I don't know who you think you're replying to, but I don't care about ideology. I want to work so I can put a roof over my head and not starve. Food and roof are much cheaper in the third world no matter what task is being done.

>>240663298
Isn't talking about how VR will impact the future on-topic for a virtual reality general?

>>240663028
english and a few other languages don't have gendered language built right in. You can use words like "they" "it" "them" instead of he and she.
Ironically, in places with gendered languages like french, the idea of a "nonbinary" person is extremely fringe.
VR makes this even easier since your outward appearance is 100% the gender of your choice, or attack helicopter, or coffeepot.
>>240663298
This is exceptionally and very on topic, what the actual fuck are you talking about?
VR technology is the catalyst for all of this.
Operating a truck is IDENTICAL in real life as it is in eurotruck simulator. If you've played that game for 100 hours, you could hop in a truck and drive it half decently. no fucking joke.
Same goes with gunplay in vr gun games. Most games have VERY realistic loading, firing, reloading, safety, auto, aiming etc - and if you've never picked up a gun before, after doing it in pavlov or hotdogs a couple of times you would immediately know how to use an ar15 in the real world, but you might not be prepared for the weight and proper shouldering of the rifle, at worst.

>>240661847

There is going to be a point where there is no value at all for third world labor and it isn't too far away. They already have those automated cold calls which are almost convincingly human.

>>240663298
in fact, here's something most people don't know
>>240663618
For literally over a decade, pilots are required to put in so many hours a year in training to keep their pilot's licence.
Since before 2006, A HUGE NUMBER of those hours can be done in literally flight simulator X, since flying real planes is expensive.
It's now switched over, with VR tech, that you can get 90% of your LEGAL pilot's licence flight training at home, with a headset, joystick, and rudders, and PASS THE EXAM, without ever setting foot in a real plane until the very, very end.

The 9/11 hijackers all got their licences/training using MAINLY microsoft flight simulator.
Imagine how good the training is in vr for an F15?
Oh wait, you don't have to imagine, because that's how we train our elite air force now.
Saves a lot of money when a delta foxtrot ejects because he missed the edge of the carrier on his way out.

>>240664034
excellent, thank you!

>>240664175
I was mainly referencing the idiots who threw in VR as an excuse to talk about capitalism on a video games board

Do not by this 'VRcover' for Rift. It is completely unfit for purpose. It is at the wrong angle, so your FOV is lowered when you adjust it correctly, and there's a huge gap around the nose so you can see out the bottom and your breathing gets deflected inside the headset and makes a ton of noise. My rekt default foam is far better than this shit. Half the reviews say this, and the other half say it is good, so I took the gamble and it is absolutely fucking useless.

https://www.humblebundle.com/store/eleven-table-tennis-vr
Eleven on sale for $10 again. It's a great sim, and there's a quite a lot of people to play with in vrg since the other sales.

>>240664175
ps extra thickass wire is eye tracking and a usb hub for the controllers, if you were wondering.
>>240664389
vr already causes problems for capitalism. Video games and the internet in general already cause problems for capitalism. It's pretty damn relevant.

One thing about our thread is it's almost not only videogames, it's /g/ level tier since vr and gaming is niche. The hardware is just as important as the games and the games bridge a thin line between actual physical training and gaming.
"Thrill of the fight" will actually teach you to box, and avoid hits, but won't teach you how not to flinch and pass out from a punch.
"eleven: table tennis" on the other hand is like downloading table tennis to your brain. It's fucking crazy. The vivewand is the same weight roughly as a good table tennis racket- and you can transition from that game to actually being able to play in reality like you're some kind of simulation, and morpheus just downloaded it into your brain. it's amazing.
Vr games ARE training, in a way.

>>240664518
I have the same kit, i think it's fine. The thin fake leather pad on the right side of your pic is what I use when playing sweaty games. The cotton cloth cover on top is good too and helps with the nose gap.

are you using the really fat 15mm pad they give you? That one is useless and decreases your FOV to like 80 degrees. I thought it might be worth it for VRsleeping, but it's just too thick.

That's your own fault, sis.

>>240665634
deluxe is the better deal if it's massively on sale as you'll have access to a shitton of cars you can't normally access, and some races especially pvp require them.
Otherwise there's not much difference, it's just digital car and track dlc which you can purchase separately if you want.
As for wheels, that's a dangerous rabbithole friend. Check your local facebook marketplace or whatever for a g29 or g27 for 100 freedom bux or less if you just want a good wheel and pedals and you have no intention of getting 4 hours a day racing serious. it's an expensive accessory to be sure, but has a lot more utility than vive trackers.
Pcars2 can make you actually good at driving real cars, which is interesting.

>Thrill of the fight" will actually teach you to box, and avoid hits,
Desu my headset falls off or gets shaken every time I try to dodge so I've given up

1500 is way too much money to pay for an avatar. Just because digi did some commissions for an anime company doesn’t mean he’s not still a literal who model creator. It’s not even better than the normal avatars in avatar worlds. The white witch summoner in ashies world looks better than it and has better shaders and animations. A lot of vrg members have more quality looking ones.

>>240666221
They make covers or masks for Vive. You should be using one anyway to avoid getting too much swear on it, especially if you want to share it with friends.
The ones I've found kinda suck so far though, just hard to keep in place but they work well enough. The masks I have are disposable and the cover can be removed and washed

>>240667472
But the vive foam shit is just attached with velcro

>>240667314
What kind of mounting job are you doing?
You should look into figuring out why it falls off with fast motion first, you might be wearing it wrong, that should never happen. make sure the strap is low on your head, the headset should be counterbalanced by the weight at the back.
You'll discover a wondrous world of comfort if you do, vr headsets are not designed to be annoying to wear, but a lot of people wear them wrong.

these are pretty good. https://www.amazon.com/JARMOR-Replacement-Memory-Leather-Better-Windows/dp/B07BWLTJRV

>>240666040
even the 6mm one seemed too thick to me, I meant the really thin one, it's something like 4mm thick, the same close to the original foam when it's against your face. Top left in pic related. the 6mm one is the blue one to the right.

>>240667421
Theres a difference between worth and cost. $1,500 sounds about right for cost when adjusting for work hours especially if its textured from scratch. It's up to the customer to decide if it's worth it or not.

>>240668468
I didn't get one that thin. I'm going to try attaching some thin fabric directly to the frame.

>>240669726
I've done that, without some kinda softening in between it's not so great. You might want like... a quilt. I've done that and it was ok. The foam is designed to hold the headset a little on your face with rift and vive, which is why the forehead relief welding mask type setup of upcoming headsets and psvr is so much better.
either way, make sure you're wearing it like a "hat" and not so much like ski goggles and you'll have less issues with the interface in general.
the strap on the back of your head should counterbalance the weight of the front, and if you adjust the top strap so it's "pulling" a little upwards, the additional strain won't rely on your face as much.

Bizarre child like interpretation of the world. There is a reason businesses look towards lean/5s principles as having a business culture of waste elimination makes you more competitive. Our system is remarkably efficient and astoundingly complex yet the supply chain works together nearly seamlessly. Despite the sheer volume of economic activity most work barely requires one to break a sweat because we've so efficiently eliminated tasks that don't intrinsically produce value. "Busy work" is a meme, if someone is paying for it then it clearly has some greater economic value even if you hate yourself for being in a boring dead end career. If the busy work is truly so mindless and of low value to anybody then either it will most assuredly be automated and eliminated in due time, a more competitive business will take it's place, or you'll be soon laid off. What more despite all that automation there are still more jobs out there being created than people to fill them just as has been the case since the start of the industrial revolution. These fundamental trends have never varied yet fucks like you still believe that the entire system will yet be turned on it's head by some new meme technology/"disruption".

>>240674039
Rift. I spent the last two days trying to get this to work, so there's no way it can be done. I get either a massive nose gap, image completely out of focus, or massively reduced FOV. I put the default back on and got it back to perfect in seconds.

Before I head home for the day, have some unity tips.
ctrl+alt+f puts whatever object you have selected in the scene into focus. Use this for finding mesh groups on your avatars or if you've lost a prop in a world.

If you hold ctrl+shift you can snap whatever you're moving to collision. This is useful if you're trying to align something in your vrchat world to the floor correctly, you won't have to worry about the mesh being too low or high.

>>240674452
oh you're talking about with the cover replacement. Ahh, ok.
What some people do is use the neoprene from a beer coozy (you know the kind with rubber and fabric glued on?) to increase the fov and replace the regular foam.

Where I used to work we'd manually count every single product every sunday, which is tens of thousands of lines. It was completely inaccurate because the warehouse was never even close to being organized enough to do it and when it was bad most of it would be completely made up. The following day someone would go around and zero any product they couldn't find, and finding anything was extremely difficult, so a load of existing products would get erroneously deleted. This would be done every morning by a team that didn't give a shit. On a Wednesday, we'd have to manually count a load of selected lines again and at any point, anyone who felt like it could just zero a line. If you ever checked a stock level, it was basically a random number that bore no resemblance to reality. This is what controlled the ordering, so the stock level was out of control all the time. The best part is that there was an automated system in place that just deducted what left the building from the deliver record, so the entire exercise just introduced layer upon layer of inaccuracy. This was one thing of many that was clearly busy work with no purpose at all.
>b-but muh efficiency
Doesn't really matter when you're a massive corporation with only a few competitors who do the same shit and only partially share the market.

Shin Godzilla tonight in like 7 hours. Amphitheater 1336, VRC. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4262980/

On tonights episode of /VRG/ we're watching Shin Godzilla. Join on R Y D E R or Meeps or anyone else on the map. Today it'll be in amphitheater for old times sake. It'll start at 11:30 EST.

>>240675272
>This was one thing of many that was clearly busy work with no purpose at all.
That's not busy work. That's you faggots, and your supervisor, being too fucking lazy to keep stock levels correctly. I'm phoneposting from one RIGHT NOW and I can tell you I know damn well I have fewer than five parts off count. Why? Because we actually do our fucking jobs, so parts that are said to be in stock are actually fucking in stock, as opposed to the other fuckasses, to the point we're shipping to places HOURS away despite the fact our competitors are down the fucking street from them.

Your warehouse isnt an example of how capitalism fails businesses, it's a business in the process of failing itself.

>>240677803
No. They're a completely different design.

Wow, the interface in this is much nicer than vrchat.

Namedrop people you haven't seen since new years.

>>240678190
How does this shit work? What is it exactly?

>>240678294
It's virtualcast, a jp vrchat clone made by dwango that allows you to stream from it directly to nnd. It's the source of all the recent vtuber stuff.

>>240677839
I've always been curious of this but why does 4chan add like a dozen KB to the size of JPGs sometimes?

>>240677835
yike, faith got fat

>>240677835
>>240678949
>>240678753
that's not faith...

>>240678683
Is it actually a vrchat clone though? I thought it was basically a streaming software for vrm avatars, not a multiplayer virtual world thing.

>>240679051
I don't care, I just want to suck whoever that is' dick.

>>240678683
its not a vrc clone

>>240678703
4chan strips exif data. Weird that it got bigger than the source though, maybe some odd recompression thing.

Is this image leaking out the reason he deleted everyone on discord?

whose socks have you fapped to the most?

>>240679757
Interesting, is there any english-language docs for it at all? I'd be interested in trying out their IK at least.

>>240679180
It absolutely is, even to the point of stealing concepts from it and using thesame ik system it's like vrchat with a streaming addon instead of a streaming platform with vrchat

>>240680168
Most fapped would be faith and bombers. They were in a league above everyone else

So guys, what's a good way to fap? I tried a VR porn video but it just felt weird. Maybe I got one that wasn't that good.

I've never tried Honey Select or CM3D2 and I don't know how well they translate into VR. I have VR Kanojo but that one's just weird.

>>240680178
They use rootmotion vrik, its identical to vrchat but works slightly better due to VRm.
No engrish that I know of but you would probably be incredibly interesting to them if you showed up on the platform.

Does anyone here still go to public maps?

I finished my avatar and it works great but I have an issue with such large hands, writing with trials or really doing anything steady with my fingers is hard because of how far away from my wrists the bones are.

Is there anything I can do to remedy this, specifically the trail drawing, beyond just chucking it inside my palm?

>>240682089
Not really. All you find is AFKs, kids, and third worlders. I think there should be more of an effort for various groups to spend some time in public worlds.

>>240680658
>tracked object
Is this as good as it sounds?

>>240682362
>>240682089
It's still where I spend most of my time whenever I log in. I bring a friend with me, though, so it's not as lonely as you'd figure.

>>240679408
Disgusting

>>240682089
I've been in the public GDQ map basically all week and it's been surprising how uneventful and comfy it's been. I like to dude alcohol lmao and pub hop on the weekends too. Being able to check avatar stats and block aspects of an avatar rather than the person entirely has been helpful.

>>240682089
The last few nights have been public world meetups, and I had a good discussion about Dark Souls in a public pug just last night. Some people are faithless, I can't blame them too much, but everyone started off a rando unless you got VRChat entirely because of /vrg/.

>>240679447

Imagine knowing all this about a little faggot that dresses in girls clothes. I’m literally laughing at the entity that is (you).

>>240682507
Yeah, you can use a cell phone to posistion a love doll or whatever and nanai moves into that position in vr

>>240682089
Occasionally. The best time for public worlds with vrg is in the afternoon between EU and NA hours.

>>240682919
I think a few people did that.

>>240682089
Most of the time, yes.

>>240680524
Well, through autism, yomichan and google translate I got it working. Rough instructions, no account signup required:

1. Download here, checkbox for "accept terms"
https://virtualcast.jp/download/

2. Extract, make sure steamvr is running, VirtualCast.exe

3. Select the third tab on the login screen, '自分で配信しない' which means something like "by yourself". Enter in anything into the first inputfield "nickname", leave other blank, hit the button to start.

4. Put on headset, you're supposed to calibrate. I had rift, and unusually you calibrate with your arms at the side pointing down, face forward, hit both of the top triggers, not the grips.

5. Now you're anime. Hit A for a menu with (some) english. Hit the trigger to select. You can change characters, spawn some props like a whiteboard and marker, change the environment, some system settings, and finally a spooky button that seems to put you into a random world with other actual people. I hit it once, heard some nip girl speaking, and alt+f4'd out. Here's a longer video of webm related, just me using OBS. I flip through all the included default characters.

https://streamable.com/wywul

I imagine you have to make an account to upload custom characters and find specific people. Maybe there are other maps too? AFAICT the built-in ones are all just non-interactible backdrops basically, nothing like vrchat. Plus, there's stick movement and turning but with a dumb nonVR vingette effect for motionlets that you can't turn off. So there's the "hanging out with friends" aspect, but no world building or exploring that I can see.

Friendly reminder, if you literally walk up to someone just so you can hide/block them and you announce it while doing it, you are worse than a pissy pubbie bitch.

I'll jump in probably 12 hours from now, join some nips and see wtf they do. Do you think it's viable to be a mute and just do cherades and shit with the spawnable whiteboard, or are the people on this mad talkative from what you've seen.

>>240685325
>implying shotguns are good weapons

>>240685916
I was too scared to hit the "join random world" button again, but there were definitely like 2 nips talking, they sounded confused when I popped in for 10 seconds. AFAICT there were only 3 or 4 rooms open total, so if you're braver than I maybe somebody will want a foreign mute. pic related is the button to hit if you're interested. Post results if you do it.

I think it's only fair that we're aloud to invade Japan's vrchat if they hung out in ours, and still do.

>>240686402
Fuggit, I was gonna go to sleep but the download was quick. I'll try setting it up and record something.

>>240684875
How do you do that? Set all other keys to 0 in the animation?

>>240684174
>>240686402
raid when

>>240687280
Every other shape key you've used on other gestures to 0. Then the right hand will fully cancel out the left hand.

>>240687482
>>240686920
I'm downloading the game now as I fear no koon and gonna go right in

>>240687504
Can you also use this method to prevent your face from warping when you use a gesture while talking?

>>240687280
Why would you do that? You can have literally fine detail gestures with combining animations on both hands. With Oculus the right hand animation gesture is dominant and will apply all shapekeys from a left hand gesture additionally. without fucking up the face. This is preddy nice.

For example I can mix my "woah!" and my "happy!" gesture to have a happy looking gesture with the open mouth from the "woah!" if you understand this dynamic and build your face animations accordingly you can easily double the amount of actuel faces ingame. Just be creative and remember: right hand is dom, left is sub.

>>240687847
Another pro shapekey tip is if you assign the shapekey a value of 0 in your FIST override, you can partially cancel a shapekey with right-hand fist, holding another gesture on your lefthand, since for some reason the FIST override is blended according to how hard you press the grip. Can have eyes half-open from blink shapekey, stuff like that.

>>240686920
I JUST FUCKING DID IT, went to a world with screens and cameras all around me but noone else. I looked up and my fucking monitor was on all the screens showing my shit, then some random nip from the void starts yelling at me and I noped out too. Gonna close my browsers this time incase I'm somehow streaming this shit to randoms.

>>240687694
No, you'll break the viseme animation completely if you put them into animation overrides.

>>240687482
I don't know enough nip to understand the connotation, but the button is called 凸リスト, which translates to something like "assult" or "protrude" in slang. So maybe it's streamers expecting randoms to show up on in their instance. Some autist can clarify perhaps http://do-ra.org/2016/01/13/26655/

>>240688479
spooky

>>240688376
This also prevents the face getting stuck on chairs. At least on Rift. I don't know how, because the grip button is shared with three other gestures.
>>240687847
It gets too complicated to remember all the combinations of gestures and I ended up checking the camera all the time. Now make the left hand override the right using only shape keys. It is possible.

>>240678683
You can't see your own body in first person iirc though(only your forearms)

>>240686920
>>240687482

Alright I got in and surprisingly it supports full body, but I felt like my legs were twisted. I didn't get told "Whaito piggu go home" but I felt like I was intruding so I left.

I will probably be judged hard with this post but is $100 a good price for designing and rigging an avatar?

>>240689558
Gonna play around a bit and figure out how the game actually works and perhaps jump back into another random place any fellow anons wanna join in and help so I'm not completely retarded by myself?

Does Unity still have issues with avatars over 65k?

>>240689886
Dunno how you start a room to join but that could be a basis for talking and organising, I rejoined the room I freaked out from after realising the ghost nip just hadn't loaded in as this game doesn't have stand in avatars like blueman, then I think he kicked me. Uploading video of dancing anime in a moment.

For anyone vaguely interested, some footage from the Pararea "meetup" on wednesday. Which was me and anon dorking around again. tl;dr it's a chink vrchat clone with 12 maps, some anime avatars, and 0 players, completely skippable. There was a naruto avatar world with a bunch of gamerips, an unworkable basketball map, some other gamerip map that I know is also in vrchat.

https://streamable.com/qecsv

The most valuable part of it is a testament to how easy it is to roll your own vrchat clone nowdays, with unity and the steamvr sdk. Doesn't take a lot to get the base features working.

>>240691184
Why does it still look technically superior to VRC? How sad.

>>240688785
>which translates to something like "assult" or "protrude" in slang. So maybe it's streamers expecting randoms to show up on in their instance.

>>240691094
rigging and painting all the essential bones is really easy and chances are if they are making the model from scratch they will put it in an A or T pose so auto rigging will do most of the work for them and they correct the tiny issues, facial rigging and skirts are a much different story as they require you to manually paint each and every single bone, maybe automatic weights might work for skirts but not the face
go look at tupper's new avatar it was $1500
weather or not you think that price is ridiculous for a single model that is the rate for a professionally done model, at best MAYBE you could land $800

Later we played some co-op karnage chronicles. It's meh, as I've said in past threads. There was a new update recently though, so we tried it out. You can now stab stuff with arrows, which is fun for a bit, webm-related.

Regular gameplay is something like this:

https://streamable.com/owih1

Basically recroom but enemies take more hits to go down. Annoyingly some of the enemies aren't reachable by melee either so you have to snipe them down. Waggle combat at its finest, basically. It's a pretty game graphically, but mechanically boring. Co-op gives you some cute abilities like stuffing potions and foods down other people's faces

https://streamable.com/cj125

It's buggy though, the other two anons kept getting crashed halfway through the first dungeon, so we stopped, couldn't even get to the new update content.

so when/where does everyone meet up in vrchat? is there like a map or a group or something?

>>240691796
step 1: get a cute or interesting avatar
step 2: talk to people

only caveat is not to waste time on people who aren't interested in engaging back at you. Look for the people who will talk to anyone.

>>240687694
What you can do is reduce the intensity of your visemes and shape keys so they can mix without going beyond usual limits. As for teeth coming out of the face, you can move them backwards on the shape key.

>not to waste time on people who aren't interested in engaging back at you
I think this is how most people perceive me now.

>>240691519
Nice, did you just hit the button to get into that room? I wonder what the player limit is.

As a weekend warrior who doesn't come to the meetups it was fun exploring The Eye of Newt and seeing all your avatars. The map was fun and well made too!

>>240693643
I maintain my air of approachability by making sure to talk to people on the outskirts and new people.

>>240691519
Let me get this straight. They have droppable props like videoplayers and co, actual physics or something like that without clipping, better IK and a better optimization as well?

All while not having any of the HTC millions like VRC?

>>240693373
We congregate around specific people in friends+ instances, hang out, follow people through portals to other friends+ instances. add yuru and join the instance they're in tonight, add people there, that's basically the /vrg/ vrchat experience.

You give me any base model (male or female) and give me or link me to 10(ten) mmd or xna outfits/characters (male or female) you want the clothes to be fitted to the model.
Everything is fitted within 72 hours or less and ready to upload in vrchat.
How much would you say this service is worth?
Or how much do you think normies would pay for this?

>>240694326
>How much would you say this service is worth?
Do it, time yourself in hours, multiply by $15. Add a flat base fee if you wish.
>Or how much do you think normies would pay for this?
Whatever you can fleece them for.

>>240694023
>Talk to core member
>Talk to outskirts and new people
>Core people wonder why im not talking to them

Just cant win.

>>240694326
>>240694582
If you do that nobody is gonna pay for it because far too expensive.

>>240693625
still have spots! Come play pavlov

>>240694681
1. Furries are a thing, and to them money is no object.
2. People regularly pay $500+ for art commissions and those are usually just .png images.

>>240694326
maybe $15 considering you only weighted and fitted clothes
for normies?
anything you can get away with

>>240694026
absolutely correct, and so few people can into vr there and are extremely shy, so outgoing personalities become instant celebrities to the point where they're making a LITERAL FUCKING ANIME about them.
VRM format springbone is how the physics work. The whole client is super optimized on unity 2017 currently, and they have prefabs like video players and even the ability for the chat to drop GIANT WORD BUBBLES literally on your head. There's spawnable things like whiteboards so you can just write or draw if you're a mute, and the avatar switching animation is much nicer.
Things load faster too.
It's also possible the rooms are peer to peer, but someone would have to wireshark it.

TUPPER! READ THIS!
>>240695215

>>240694026
It's not hard, even the chinks did something passable >>240691184

FWIW virtualcast still isn't really a VRChat competitor though. AFAICT the rooms are like 3 people max, there's no big instances or custom maps or trigger scripting like that.

this is me

>>240695710
current tweets from the developer seem to indicate something crazy like 64+ people in a zone.
There's a reason I was telling vrchat to support vrm for a long time, because I saw this coming from the jp, because they take everything good and make it anime.
vrchat can still win, but they need to move fast before this gets translated (which it will, they're trying to expand efforts into the west because of how much more money is to be made).

>>240695872
WHY WONT YOU KNOT ME?!

>>240695894
I for one encourage our Japanese friends to take as much control of the western VR community as they possibly can. Our own cause is effectively lost.

>>240695872
CUTE DOG

>>240696042
they take vr very seriously. Have you seen tsuntsun vr by IVR?
literally a loli poking simulator with a haptic vest.

>>240695215
What's the max player limit, for reference?

>>240695872

>>240696161
it uses MUN (I think), which is the jp roll your own version of PUN, so I'm not sure. It's standard instanced stuff though, but I bet it could comfortably support a fair bit if the netcode was optimized.
Same numbers as in any online game I'm sure, the limits are arbitrary.

>>240695872

>>240696106
Exactly. Westerners are talkers. And also huge faggots most of the time, about most everything. Japanese are fukken doers. Do you think they'd sit around and bitch about not having FBT while simultaneously posting the fucking githubs for it? No, they'd go duct tape one of those DIY trackers together, learn the API, and make their own. And use it to make a creepshot simulator. I love those slant eyed fucks. We should be more like them. Learn the APIs and stuff. VR is a homebrewer's fucking wet dream. You can do, effectively, anything. If you wanted to DIY your own lighthouse-tracked 150deg headset today, the resources are out there to do it.

I haven't seen more than 4 people at a time in their official docs, so I feel like the practical player limit is still in the 10s at most. Plus still no maps, custom or otherwise, that are more interesting than a unity plane with a skybox.

>>240697036
(google translate)
>- Please tell me about the future development of "virtual cast".
>Mr. Matsui: Since we have six people connected at the same time, we will raise the upper limit of these numbers. In addition, the background and items in "Virtual Cast" are now only pre-installed, but I'm thinking that I can upload it to Nikoni solid and bring in my favorite items into space.

So more than 6 players and custom maps soon™, basically.

I mean virtualcast still cool and vrchat is still shit, but it's still nowhere near a direct replacement yet.

Alright motherfuckers, its friday night, and you know what that means, late night boomer game time. Tonight at 11pm pst 2am est right after shin godzirrra, we are going to be hosting another Serious Sam session. We have found the pvp game-play is really fun, outside of that we will figure out a campaign to run like 2 or 3 again for those who missed it. Figured out how to adjust enemy difficulty and add slot tokens as well so the enemies are more challenging and tokens add value to dying. Makes the game infinitely more fun. Last note, here is a streamable of larger avatars apparently having a larger player capsule, inhibiting the player at points on maps :^) https://streamable.com/n4mvx

Happy anniversary, /vrg/
Love you all.

here's a random old streamable

https://streamable.com/6hhlv

>>240697451
fuck off, tonight is the anniversary meetup, do this shit tomorrow

>>240697064
indeed, but there's absolutely no reason they couldn't. They've only been working on this since mid 2017 and they have two offices and TWO HUNDRED EMPLOYEES.

The main thing is that your average jp person is actually shit at PC stuff. Like, real bad, really really bad.
It's still considered uncommon to have a persocom at home, or a otaku activity.
So people that can even do vr at all stick together.

this project is around 6-11 months old tops and it already can do 6 hangouts for normal users...

but let's not forget they have a business edition of the software too, and everything goes to that first... it already that gets all the advanced features like eye tracking that they use for huge events with many in the same room.

like here:
https://twitter.com/virtual_cast/status/1079766588729962497

it's not that they can't, they're just saving the features for the "pros" which is just people with 1/10th the skill of entertaining as people like naddtion drumsy and snowsos.

so when are we taking it over?

>>240697665
I have serious sam fusion and it's weird how I can choose not to play it and go to the meetup instead

>>240697665
Tomorrow is anniversary meetup

>>240697736
not to mention they literally put kizuna ai on the side of a fucking bus because she had ovver a million followers.
Drumsy managed that in less than a year using vrchat only.

>>240697665
You keep bitchin, we'll keep playin VR games in the virtual reality general

>>240697807
who scheduled this shit *not* on a friday? the hell?

>>240697736
also keep in mind that they consider 1000 follows an insanely rousing success. 250k sales would be groundbreaking.
They have no concept of what something like 70 million followers would be like.

>>240697451

>>240697929

>>240698169
The vtuber thing is seriously taking off and it's going to be what sells VR in Japan, especially when standalones get beefier tegra-like chips.

>>240697451
Make sure you set "dynamic flow control" in your multiplayer options for a silky smooth serious experience

I just survived an hour and thirty minutes in a virtual cast instance. I was recording but none of the video was saved it's just green. They were a lot nicer than I expected to two random nerds walking in than I expected.

>>240703382
It was pretty nice, might go back some time if I can figure out who the guy was we spent most of the time with, though I think just finding the streamer girl hosting would do the same thing.

>>240703373
No, you just wear them. If you can't figure it out, the darts form a bump stop.

>>240703382
What is virtual cast. Just some jap vr platform? The name makes it sound like it gets live-streamed.

>>240700210

>>240706209
Just search the email itself, thats his actual twitter account. The one he wrote before was incorrect.
They already uploaded stuff about us, the streamer girl is also retweeting something about how there is an increase in foreigners and so they might make international servers or something.

>>240697451
Are you still taking mod suggestions? If so, would weapon mods like this be acceptable https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1416139859 or is stuff like that off the table for game balancing reasons?

>>240706745
>we're actually having an impact
yes
keep doing this

>>240706403
We were able to speak engrish just fine, but they didn't speak it perfectly as you'd expect so you gotta choose your words carefully and listen closely when they talk. The whiteboards also make for a great communication tool. Defo get on now before the game is overrun with westerners with no respect for Japanese culture.

>>240706403
English was fine despite only a couple of them having any English skill at all(Not that great but passable for communication). Most just stuck to what they were doing.

>>240707383

>>240707475
The songs just slow down if you play it more so what was previously an incomprehensible wall of arrows becomes something you can do without thinking about.

>>240706745
Yeah that had his actual handle in it. https://twitter.com/vrhatukanedumi
Also I see that retweet about the foreigners. I hope they still allow people to permit them as I did quite enjoy the universal language fun we had.
>>240706967
Yeah my post overstated how many people know english. The first instance I was in no one did so I left as I felt bad.

Fellow eyelets, how do you VR?
I hate it how everyone says the middle of the lens is the clearest but it's the blurriest part for me so I have to look up or down to read anything

My eyes get sort of dry or something so with contacts after a while everything is blurry anyway

>>240709047
Have you adjusted your IPD correctly? Or does your vision get clearer in every direction except the middle?

>>240709047
Hello eyelet here. Try applying some Systane if you're wearing contacts and Theratears if you're using glasses. It's been helping me a lot.

>>240706886
Yeah sure ill check it out, gotta find somebody to help test it though.

>>240707786
Looking at the girls nicovideo now, gonna try and grab some clips from the stream of our interactions if they are usable.

>>240709047
You have the headset at the wrong angle. I presume it's a Rift.

>>240709291
arigato, anon, I could possibly help you test it if you want/can't find someone else to help

if they wanted to make it a basic ass AR they should have made an M4gery or more basic 16in race AR, not a shitty "snipe astronauts in between clearing rooms" baby's first AR build bought with a blank checkbook

>>240709884
I was expecting a bit more from it too but it really does seem just like a streaming platform for hanging out with a handfull of friends at the same time.
Watching the stream I thing the fishing game was something the stream girl played, and the stream watchers could play it too like an overlay of the video and they competed.

>>240710049
It's automatically bad because it has an optic which is for shitters.

variable scopes are pretty gucci and tasteful, some even use em on race guns, but dots are still preferable imo
massive fixed zoom scopes like that are absolutely absurd on anything but obscenely expensive and precise distance-built rifles, and for something certainly bigger than intermediate calibers

it gets clearer towards the edges so if I look at an RPM gauge I can't read the numbers in the middle but I tilt my head up(or down, sides) and read with the very edge the number is clear as day

>>240709324
you're a dumb fucking shit aren't you
lenses in vr goggles make the screens that are really fucking close to your eyes appear far away which is more pronounced at the center (1.6 meters or so)

i only wear glasses in real life when I'm driving or at the movies because for everything like sitting here at my desk I can see the monitor perfectly fine

thing is

in VR a monitor with similar proportions is actually a larger one (proportionally same) two meters away so it's fucking blurry
you should have learned this in high school

>>240710249
I was playing something not even insanely fast for a little bit and then every other hard/expert song I played for the rest of the night felt like it was going in slow motion.
Weird how you just get used to it and it becomes the new normal to compare everything to - fast suddenly seeming slow once you've gone faster.

>>240710741
No, he means you literally simply have the Rift sitting on your face at the wrong angle and need to rotate it in its mount up and down on your face to fine tune the focus. It is mounted on bearings for this purpose.

>>240710838
yep, just wait til you get into the full retard songs and you mentally outpace your body
The real problem is songs that are really fast and have back-forth notes that force you to whip your arms, bottom right hand blue, top left blue, top right blue, ect style combos that just fuck your joints

>>240710049

There are at least 4 AR-15 pattern guns of varying design. Basic AR is already served.

>>240710143
I can't get the stream to download with youtube-dl or play in the browser https://cas.nicovideo.jp/user/513789/lv317912484 is there a place to view the recording of it?

>>240710741
No, really, if the middle is out of focus, you have it at the wrong angle.

thread full of nogunz and fudds

you can't shoot far away with red dumb sights

its only good for rapid target acquisition but most real engagements are 200-300 meters away unless you're some door kicker hero

>>240710937
You gotta sign in, make a nico account if you dont have one and click the leftmost button on the top right for the login button. Already compiling and recording some clips, might take a bit to get through it all.

>>240710917
At least be consistent with the art, the one they made looks like an overbuilt POS
i don't play gfl but I know secondhand they have a mk18 and 416, so plenty of AR-pattern redundancy, but that doesn't mean the ar15 has to be babby's first 5,000$ zombie killer

>its only good for rapid target acquisition but most real engagements are 200-300 meters away unless you're some door kicker hero
Shit like this is why I left /k/
This shit does not apply to civilian shooters
It literally doesn't apply to us and isn't worth mentioning

>>240710992
At 300 meters you fire for effect.

>>240710992
yeah, hold on, let me get my squad support weapon for my 300m firefight while we wait for air support or a fire mission
grunt rifles get red dots so they can aim better than irons, but not because they are the weapon that wins the war, even on the squad scale the guy with the quick shooty brick is the one who kills people, and in the long term in the guy with wings or slinging bombs into the air

>>240711108
*you badger the CC to call an airstrike

>>240710992
But if civilians do use their guns, they're gonna be fighting in close quarters. I don't understand what you're trying to say with this.
Home defense, shooting cops, revolt- whatever it is, having faster target acquisition is a raw bonus.

>>240711092

They use contracted artists out of the Far East... It's a miracle if they've ever held any gun, much less the one they're drawing.

>>240711216
Unironically, yes. Military doctrine since the end of WWI involves an attack from at least two sources. With infantry largely being used to suppress while something else actually takes out the target.

>>240711949
Is a 5.56 AR really taking advantage of an optic that big? Especially suppressed? And if so, why is it using a front grip instead of a bipod?

>>240712190
I mean it might be a few years out of date because the hot meme right now is 6.5 Mememore but civilian ammunition is a wonderful thing. Yes you can get plenty out of 5.56 at long range and plenty of people do suppress their long range rifles. It's just nice to get the noise down. It doesn't hurt accuracy much if at all.

>>240712190
Suppressing your rifle doesn't effect performance at all. It's the measures that are taken to take full advantage of the suppressor like subsonic ammunition that negatively effect performance. Other than that, a suppressor is just the most effective muzzle device you could possibly have performance-wise, if the added weight and length are not an issue.
Ballistics of 556 would struggle with a scope that big though. It's really oversized and there are far better calibers to chamber your AR in like 6.5 Creedmore that could reach far further, but yeah as >>240712343 said, a high-precision round could go pretty far in tight groups, as well as well-done reloads.
Even then, though, it's still reaching outside the effective zone of the rifle. It'd be cheaper and easier to do it with a different caliber.

>>240711084
I got it before you posted but for some reason my post never got through. I was worried I might have hijacked the stream but seeing this I think we actually boosted their ratings lol.
