/vrgg/ - Virtual Reality Gaming General #12

Quest 2 controller died, time to kill myself

>>383287120
serves you right you rat fuck

im waytching a VR game recommendation video, and literally every time they show a trailer/commercial for a game, it shows the human people putting on the headset, and literally every single time it’s a White woman and a black man playing the VR game. It’s an hour long video and every single trailer is like this.
Why?

>>383288139
I couldn't afford anything else

Can you bypass the bandwidth limit of using Airlink with an AMD card by using Virtual Desktop?

>>383281462 (Cross-thread)
Multiplayer works
Mods work
All while in VR. You just need to optin into the oculus beta branch and use -openvr for non-Oculus heads or -oculus for oculus headset in the Steam launch options.

I don't get why some anons claimed quite falsely that all of those things are mutually exclusive. American Truck Simulator/European Truck Simulator 2 are real comfy in VR and are even better if you have friends to play them with.

all new vr games should be required to support fbt by law
i am fucking tired of spending so much money on vive shit and then only use it to flex on fags in vrchat because no fucking games support it and if they do it's BARELY like b&s

>>383292840
You should play Jet Island. You can use FBT in that game to control your hoverboard and even do kick-flips. It's a solid adventure game regardless. No one will support FBT in the future as all games are made for Quest sadly.

>>383288171
look at the companies behind them, then into their executives

>>383293407
>No one will support FBT in the future
ummm swetie, quest 3 next year will literally have FBT built in

>>383294269
Yeah, in an extremely limited stare at mirror base form which will be about as useful as Kinect. For actual games like Blade & Sorcery where you playspace around and rotate it'll never track properly.

getting this next friday and no one can stop me

rally's back
it's fun

>>383292840
I wish a hip tracker was included in the initial standard. You could have a tracked inventory, body oriented movement, leaning, etc. in every game.

>>383288171
go-to diversity tokens, all american ads are like that

Game recommendations skip a few nice mods, like nomaiVR for outerwilds or the "new" RE2, RE3, RE7 & RE8 mods. Quite a shame. Didn't know this general existed, that's a relief.

does anybody here own the valve index and is it worth it

>>383302350
I have owned once since 2019 when it launched. You would probably be better off with a more recent headset now because it still costs $1000 despite being somewhat outdated now.

i noticed on vrchat i can upload youtube videos in the screens in the room. can everyone else hear and see them, or just me?

>>383303302
integrated headphones seem kinda stupid, feel like you'd be better off with your own pair of tws

>>383303423
if the room is public and they have that stuff enabled they can hear it too, not sure if private mutes it for people outside or they just can't get in there

isn't this thread used by a specific pedo groomer?

>>383303464
They're more like integrated speakers, which for me is far worse. They don't block external sound at all and you have to use them on high volume to hear properly. Most people like it though.

>>383303991
Most people are retarded.

>>383304087
This is a case where no-one has ever agreed with me and can't believe I don't like the Index speakers if I mention it.

>>383303991
I guess its supposed to give the feeling like its coming from "around you" like a virtual experience rather than good sound quality?

>>383304372
It's apparently good quality.

>>383304554
I mean apposed to in ear sound quality

>>383304903
Other people tell me it is the greatest sound quality they have heard.

>>383305018
eh, it'd be nice to see these out in stores like walmart where I can test it out for myself

>>383305083
I don't think that would be a good environment because it's so loud.

>>383305172
if I could at least experience the vr quality in of itself that'd be enough

>>383305473
It no longer has the best screen quality and the controllers were kinda bad from the start.

>>383304262
you probably cant hear very well because the speakers are great, someone can even be watching tv on the same room and i wont notice

>>383300663
Doesn't the re8 mod only support gamepad?

>>383308131
Whatever it is, I much prefer headphones.

>>383303464
I like them. I only play Beat Saber so audio is pretty important to me. The quality is fine, better than they look on the low end. They're obviously not comparable to high fidelity headphones or IEMs. For me the best part is exactly that they don't touch ears. It helps with the feeling that the audio comes from the environment instead of coming from pair of headphones you have clamping your head or from IEMs in your ear canals.

anger, disappointment and sadness

>>383303464
You can take them off or place muffs on them.
>>383305083
Not sure at all but there MIGHT be Microsoft stores where you can demo the Reverb G2 which uses the same speakers, in colaboration with Valve.

>>383303464
I like them as they are more comfortable than headphones. When you are playing games that get sweaty like Beat Saber, having your ears unenclosed is nice. I used to use headphones with my old WMR headset and they got nasty real fast when playing games that involved moving around.

what game is the OP from?

>>383311905
okay, I can see the benefit in that situation but what about when you want to lay down on your side on a pillow while VR-ing

>>383312212
After the Fall

Bean Stalker is on sale, any good? I want something that I can play for days, not just 3 hours.

>mimic says 'are you coming out to play?' in a loli voice
What

>>383317941
They've found their audience's weakness

>>383317164
It took me 24 hours to 100% it, but could have taken 14 if I didn't die like an idiot so much. I'd say that it'll definitely take several days and is extra fun if you play with a friend. Once you kill all the bosses and craft every piece of equipment there isn't really a reason to do anything else. At least not until the new biome+boss is added next month. I'd definitely say it's worth the current asking price.

>>383320923
Got it, thanks!

>>383318437
>anon uooooh's and gives his position away

H3VR is very mechanically impressive but I just wish there was more to do than gun autism. There are little minigames but I feel like this game is really nothing but framework. Which I guess describes a lot of VR games

I will been on Valheim around 6pm PST - 9 EST.
I hope I will find my fellow Vikings there if they expect a place in Valhalla.

The situation has turned grim. Our expansion into the plains has not gone unnoticed. The goblin hoards have struck at our home base 3 times in short order. Our northern wall as been neglected and is quickly reduced to splinters. We badly need stone walls up there. I fixed the essentials that were destroyed but the attacks are coming every 3 game days.
I fear I will not last if my friends leave me alone out here.

>>383324629
For some absurd reason devs with great framework-like games don't want their games to be modded. Modding support would do wonders for many titles, but no.

Zenith was so much fun for the first few hours. Sure there a lot of screaming kids and that bug that keeps you from crafting but I felt like they were on to something. Why do I have to dual wield like a weeb nerd.

>>383325107
my thoughts exactly. shame

>>383325107
>>383324629
H3VR has modding support.

>>383325996
Is Thunderstore the mainline modding repo for H3VR? The libraries there seem to be maintained by the community. If all the tooling for mods are community made then the game devs don't really support modding. I've also seen complaints about H3VR dev not really being supportive of modding, but I don't know if this is actually true still.

I know for sure that some people have a skewed perception about Beat Saber modding here so maybe this is the case with H3VR too.

What are the best offline video players for PCVR? Virtual Home Theater would be otherwise really nice, but it doesn't support SSA subtitle theming for my chinese cartoons.

>>383327878
He's worked with modders for a while now, he mentions it from this time stamp:

https://youtu.be/ionghA0jMdA?t=935

>>383325657
I agree. It felt like a stretched out demo to me but a decent demo with clear potential when compared with the rest of the trash in the VRMMO genre.
The mechanics worked well even if they weren't used to good effect. Gliding and climbing were still satisfying even after 20 hours but it was clear that the zones weren't originally designed for it.

The combat seemed simplistic but it actually has potential on the few classes that get more than the barebones mechanics; Mage Tank could use timed blocks, AoE CC, burst heal, debuff the enemy and their weapon damage ramped up over time so they had to manage cooldowns to maximise the DPS window. Using this I was fighting group quest bosses and their minions on my own without being overlevelled, It was a fun challenge compared to the rest of the braindead combat. I like limited skill slots as they encourage tradeoffs in builds but 4 is maybe too limited and there are nowhere near enough skills to let classes have build variety.

Crafting was another potentially good mechanic held back by awful design. They should ditch the recipe system and just let us experiment with whatever ingredients we have, saving any successful combinations into a recipe book. Finding new ingredients sucks because you can't do anything with them until you arbitrarily reach the level required to unlock the recipe. This would also let recipe combinations spread through socialization instead of a shitty quest system.

>>383332365
>This would also let recipe combinations spread through socialization instead of a shitty quest system.
>through socialization
99% of the people would get the recipes from the wiki if that was the case, dont be retarded

>>383329004
mpv and virtual desktop maybe

>>383294435
everybody praises this but I have one and whenever I look up it slips off my head
very sad don't understand

Is there a way to show a floor boundary, like Thrill of the Fight, but across all games? I am tired of swinging into walls.

>>383341516
OVR Advanced Settings lets you in its boundary settings. I find it mandatory for Blade And Sorcery to not destroy my controllers.

>>383341964
Thanks, I type this with a swollen index finger caused my 2handed swinging approx 10m ago

whats the easiest quick way to making/editing webm videos? I want to show off some VR games I've been playing

>>383346317
https://argorar.github.io/WebMConverter/

>>383346317
Use OBS Studio to record Oculus Mirror or SteamVR's 'Display VR view'. The performance impact is minimal, the options are good and the replay buffer is very useful. I just use the keyboard but if you want to use your VR controller as the record hotkey you can do that with an Autohotkey script.

Easy to then throw that raw footage into WebM for baka/retard/lazy, adjust the settings to lower the resolution, trim the unwanted footage and set the 3MB size limit.

>>383354991
Can you share your autohotkey script?

>>383346317
If you use mpv try this

What's a good 3rd party link cable for the Quest 2?

Well after trying the disappointment that is Nintendo Switch Sports, I decided to buy Eleven Table Tennis. This is what I imagined games would be like after playing the original Wii sports. I absolutely suck tho, I finally got both drives down after watching a viet guy teach it in slow-mo.

>>383383882
I've got the 5m kiwi design one and it works fine. Although do keep in mind that apparently usb type A ports can't output as much power as usb type C ports, so if you've got the socket for it it might be worthwhile to look for a type C to type C cable

>>383387491
Eleven is one of my favourite games in general. You will suck at first, I've put hundreds of hours in and now I'm 'okay'. Don't regret a single hour, they're all fun.

>>383389662
I do have a usb-c port but supposedly it supports 3 amps output the same as the 3.1 usb-a port on my motherboard.

>>383365973
For Rift/Quest:

For SteamVR you can use OpenVR Advanced Settings to add Key Press and other options to the controller binding menu.

Wow, charting for Ragnarock is not as easy as I thought.

Is an i3 8100 and a GTX 1060 3gb enough for VR? Which should I upgrade if not? I know moth are meh but I can’t just spend 1000$ at once

>>383413929
Valva has a thing you can run to check if you're VR ready

>>383413929
I don't know about the CPU, but that was the meme card that people were mocking in 2018 for being the absolute bare minimum required for VR.

>>383413929
>3gb gpu
anon...

>>383413929
it will be fine to play on low graphics, and join small vrchat instances, buy you'll want to upgrade GPU definitely.

Welcome back racer!
EU Assetto Corsa: European Racing club, season 5!
Race 23.

RACING ANNIVERSARY! 1 YEAR OF THE CLUB!

18:00 UTC, 20:00 CET, Monday 16th of May! (that's in 8 days!)

We are going to get SCREWED by the AMERICANS. GT2 race in Laguna Seca. Cars are powerfull, fast, high tech, high grip, but the SCREW will still screw you over, so slow down.
1 hour practice, 15 minute qualifiers, 10 lap race.

Afterwards we'll do some drifting/pleasure driving in the Gunsai Touge, Japan, with a good selection of drift and non drift cars, mainly from Japan.

Mods:
https://mega.nz/folder/CiJ0jYZR#VQMV86vN0AZKKev_27_jFQ

Assetto - can be played with wheel, controller, or steam-vr-wheel addon, it doesn't matter, we will all have fun driving together. If you just bought Asseto - grab Assetto Corsa Content Manager - a better launcher: https://assettocorsa.club/content-manager.html and a mod installer (just drag and drop zip files from mega).

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

Into The Radius keeps hitting 100% on my CPU and stutters and is basically unplayable :(
Blade and sorcery is alright so far. Should I upgrade my CPU? I get mixed results on what people online say about an i3 8100 for VR

>>383426474
ItR has especially high hardware requirements.

>>383426892
BloodTrail VR was also giving me the old "100% CPU load causing stutters"
Meanwhile, task manager said my GPU usage was at 40%
Guess I gotta drop 300$ next friday when i get my paycheck, unless anyone has any magic advice to descrease CPU usage?

>>383413929
When I had that card I could pretty much only play Quake 1, Minecraft, and Skyrim with mods that make the game look like Runescape. Even Beat Saber required me to turn down the resolution and still had hitches. Get a better card and CPU ASAP. Go to Newegg and see what is on your budget. The 5000 series Ryzens go for pretty cheap these days.

>>383429035
Well, I dont mind playing games at fucking 240p resolution, its the juttering and stuttering thats making me sick.

I look at my task manager, and my CPU is like 100% at all times while in VR, while GPU load is small. I wanted to get a CPU thats within my socket range so I dont have to switch motherboards
And i7 9700k for 200-350$ surely will be great, right?

>>383429650
>3 years old i7
anon dont
save money and buy new motherboard with new i5, you dont need i7

>>383429650
Not a good deal for the price given that you can get a 5800x for the same price, but it will be an upgrade for sure. Get a better cooler too so you can overclock it.

>>383429650
An i7 is probably overkill, you'd be better off with an i5 and putting the rest of the money towards a better gpu.

>>383430101
What’s wrong with a 3 year old i7?>>383430103
I see the AMD cpu is cheaper and better, but I’d also have to spend 80-100$ on a new motherboard so it would kinda even out right?
>>383430221
I want overkill, I wanna be absolutely certain that my CPU won’t hold me back whatsoever, just my 1060. I’ve been dealing with underpowered CPU fuckery in VR for weeks now, I’m tired of it

>>383354991
Why not use the OBS OpenVR plugin to record OpenVR directly?

>>383431285
>I’ve been dealing with underpowered CPU fuckery in VR for weeks now, I’m tired of it
That's because you're using the shittest desktop i3 you could get your hands on, an i5 will blow it out of the water.

>haven't gone fast with vrg in almost a year

>>383426474
>>383427719
You're having a CPU bottleneck. If your CPU is too weak, you won't be able to fully utilize your graphics cards. The lower resolution you go, the more CPU intensive things are. It's why CPU gaming benchmarks are done at 1080p vs 4k, because higher res is much more GPU dependent. Your CPU is very likely holding you back quite a bit with an i3.

>>383432350
Yeah, thats what I thought, seeing as the task manager said my CPU was at 100% load.
>>383429650

>>383429650
I have to second what people are saying. Save your money and just save for a new motherboard and CPU. it's not worth upgrading that socket for that much, it's wasting money.

>>383431418
Both are good but SteamVR view has some extra options that can be useful.

>>383432859
I don’t understand why though, CPU world or whatever says it’s like the 40th best CPU ever right now out of like 1500

>>383426474
check frame timings in Steamvr advanced frame timing thing, it's under developer.

It shows how much time game spends on GPU and CPU to render a frame, based on those times you can decide what is limiting you more, GPU or CPU.

>>383434782
Places like that and userbenchmark are full of complete shit and don't tell the whole story, they're bad places to look at. Those numbers are also vastly inflated by CPUs which are over a decade old.

If you spend 200-350 on the 9700k, you can save another 200-250ish, maybe even less depending on the board, to buy a new motherboard and get even a mid range 12th gen CPU, or current Ryzen 5000 series, that will completely and utterly shit on the 9700k in every possible way by such a degree it's not even a fair comparison, and will last you so much longer.

>>383435897
Aww man ://
Yeah, a Ryzen 5 5600x is 230, while a new motherboard is around 100$
I just REALLY didn’t want to have to build my whole PC again. Are you sure just upgrading my CPU in the same gen won’t be fine? I know you’re probably right but I just wanna play blade and sorcery :(

>>383437038
If you wanna waste your money then go ahead. It'll technically work but you're getting awful value compared to what else you could be getting with the same or even less.

>>383437628
I mean if I spend 300$ on an i7, or 300 on an AMD CPU and new motherboard, it’s not that big of a waste huh? Sure it might be less performance but I also won’t have to rebuild my entire PC

>>383438550
If you're that lazy when they're the same price then it's your money to burn and you do you. The 5600x is a fairly better CPU in gaming, and also will last you longer before you need to upgrade again for several reasons. Rebuilding a basic PC set up should take you less than an hour if you don't have loads of your own modifications or something like a custom loop.

>>383438550
Eh there isn't really much of a work/time difference to just switch a cpu+cooler vs taking out RAM and GPU as well to switch the entire motherboard.

>>383439502
>>383439641
Yeah, I guess you’re right. I just have only put together a PC once and am scared I’ll fuck something up
I guess I’ll go with a Ryzen when I get my paycheck in a week.

>>383440087
Anon, building a PC isn't hard. They're practically like legos now as long as you follow the instructions. You can do a bunch of fancy shit like customs loops and whatever, that stuff is more complicated, but to just get a basic and functional PC is super easy.

>>383354991
what game is this?

>>383440231
Now I have to just wait a week until I get $, but what am I to do? I’m stuck with a…quest 2 and it’s shitty games. I wanna play blade and sorcery or Boneworks or Hard Bullet or Bloodtrail or Skyrim or H3VR dammit! Actually I think I can run H3VR

>>383490212
Yeah just get vr already

Got motion sick feeling from Swords and sorcery and resident evil 4 somehow.

I heard to you can eventually overcome sea sickness by micro dosing.

True or false?

>>383303464
I just bought a quest 2, and surprisingly the internal speakers are pretty high quality, I havent felt the need to put on earphones yet, but might eventually.

Playing beatsaber with the internals is actually really fine

Is the future of vr just adding vr support to normal games? its been like 8 years and still no le_killer_apperino besides beatsaber, which barely looks virtual reality when you're actually playing it

What is stopping these dudes from creating something great for vr? just motion sickness related? Any games in the works atm that you think will change the game?
So far the coolest game I've played is ECHO VR but it demands a ton of space to play correctly and also its nothing but kids

>>383497946
Play into the radius

>>383497191
Yes. Micro dosing is important for getting over vrsickness. Stop when you feel a little bit queezy. Then try again after subsides. Never force

>>383498150
mite b cool

>>383497191
I have no idea what you're talking about, but if you stop playing when you start to feel ill and play again later; and then repeat this process; you'll get over the sickness. We call it getting your VR legs.

>>383498757
>>383498946
Thanks!

>>383497191
try macro dosing ethanol

where can i get an avatar like the one on the right?

>>383499593
Make one
I was going to insult you a bit but the one on the right is actually not that bad. It's clearly flawed but as they go it's okay. Especially compared the the garbage on the rest of the frame

>>383499525
Hello sir!
Why are you being rude you motherbitch?
I fuck your mother? bitch bastard

>>383497946
risk averse corporations and new tech don't mix
a lot of big companies probably don't even have a vr division yet
people don't get what a big shift this is, especially when the industry has been on autopilot for so long

>>383499736
>It's clearly flawed

you can't.
it's purrfect

>>383500096

*unzips coding gloves*

>>383413929
I own an RX 580 8gb which is better than the 1060 and i wouldn't recommend people buy this one for VR let alone the 1060 3gb

Especially as more modern games come out (Alyx requires the 6gb minimum) or you try to play PC games with VR mods, you'll run into issues and have to reduce resolution and etc

>>383413929
Upgrade the CPU first. Your CPU is horrifically weak while the GPU is just underpowered.

>>383499593
I'm a newbie, is there a program people are shitting out all these generic, samey, really poor performance anime avatars on or what

I have RX580 + i7-7700k
What games are bad for you?

>>383501730
It's not so much a program as a common base and a bunch of assets that people slap to it. Second life is a common source of horrifically unoptimised assets.
If only it was a fucking program then it might actually not be as bad (and there are some programs that shit out models, like custom maid and vroid)

>>383499952
There's also the fact that VR game design directly contradicts modern AAA game design. Modern big budget games are all about wrestling control away from players to play shitty movie segments, but in VR at the bare minimum you need to let the player control the camera if you don't want them to feel weird, and even just controlling the movement can be offputting.

>>383502280
>Modern big budget games are all about wrestling control away from players to play shitty movie segments,
trueeeeee

>>383501893
I can run games fine, i'm just autistic about framedrops and stutters which i'm getting a lot unless i reduce resolution
it could also be my CPU or RAM as my cpu is less powerful than yours (r5 2600) and the RAM is slow (8gb 2666mhz), so i'm just trying to warn anon that cheaping out will result in a cheap experience

god fuck i hated playing Vader Immortal due to this, even Battle Sister 40k let you do something as small as smack NPC's with weapons during cutscenes

Could the vrc degenerative coomers and pedophiles remove themselves from the thread and go back to their general or rather fuck off to their discord servers all together

>>383502363
Vader immortal cutscenes could have been made 10x more bearable if they let me press the buttons on the ship. Even if they did nothing.

>>383502363
I was genuinely asking, because I haven't tried that many games yet and was curious which might be shit for my GPU, might be fine though

>>383502494
Unfortunately i haven't played that many either

Games like Battle Sister 40k ran perfectly during the intro level and then once i got to Chapter 2 which is a huge open cathedral with enemies on multiple floors i had to turn down the settings

so running quest 2 with link wire connected definitely adds like a good 1-2 hours extra play time right? seemed like it anyway

>>383504063
Yeah it does. Shame it can't run forever, wish they gave you the option of using a cable like the one the index has where you can hook the power, usb and display up in one.

>>383497946
Over the last 4+ years I've owned VR I have concluded that people want familiar low effort games. They don't want to commit to a single task that requires physically removing the headset to do other things. They don't want to stand up or move around. They don't want to learn new controls or mechanics. They want to sit in a chair clicking things on autopilot or waggling analog sticks in a minor variation of the same game they've played for thousands of hours before.

I think what we consider to be VR will always be niche. I predict the mainstream future is actually AR, wearing something with the form factor of glasses. It will replace smart phone tasks, and possibly other displays if they can be rendered bright enough to appear opaque. Women will sit swiping candy crush blocks floating in front of them while their social media feed scrolls past at the side. Others might use it to watch streaming services on a 100 inch virtual screen that is synced between nearby devices. I cannot see the majority of people ever wearing a headset that isolates them from the real world, because it is high effort while offering little to no advantage to how they use it.

Look at /vrg/ where almost everyone already owns a headset, but over 90% never play a single game that isn't VRchat (even in that they won't visit any world with an activity) and of the remaining 10% an even smaller fraction will actually play VR games regularly, as opposed to as an occasional novelty. If you look at /v/ there's people who own a headset but haven't turned it on in over a year, or sold it.

The number of people in the world who truly enjoy VR games is vanishingly small and it is an ongoing source of sadness for me.

>>383504272

Yeah wish I could run it forever off power cord.

is there an avatar world that focuses on low poly avatars? also where can I find an avatar of the vrchat "loading" blue crystal avatar

>>383504424
Good post.
I am very interested in AR as well, but I feel like it's going to be in the same boat as VR with nothing of real substance to do with it.

>>383504604
Quest avatar worlds are usually pretty low poly
but you probably mean actual retro style

>>383504424
>even in that they won't visit any world with an activity
This has been the biggest disappointment of VRchat to me, most of the "Activity" worlds like games or etc are empty in favor of chatrooms

Is there a game that delivers my weeaboo fantasy of piloting a Gundam yet?

I've seen some american mech games but nothing for Gundam type mechs.

>>383505358

What? My quest 2 barely discharges on cable, hell, if I play through airlink with cable connected to outlet it even slowly recharges the battery

>>383505358
There's a zone of the enders 2 vr game I think

>>383507732
yes, only if you crash which happened in my case

>>383507821
Did you finish nightmare? Been wanting to test it after the 35% damage upgrade.

>>383507735
What cable you using? official?
Im using airlink with plugged in and battery still goes down a decent pace

>>383507910
Is yours usb-c to usb-a? someone else must know but I think those draw less power

Yeah its KIWI brand C to A

>>383508089
It depends on the actual usb-c port and obviously cable quality can effect it too, but generally usb-c is capable of a higher power output than usb-a. Although there are lightning ports (usually have a yellow "tongue" instead of the typical usb 3.1 blue one) which I think are supposed to be capable of outputting enough power.

>>383507906
nope, either die or crash

I played the demo of that and it's kinda crappy in vr, I wouldn't recommend it.
>>383508310
It might depend on your motherboard too, mine has both usb-a and c 3.1 ports that support up to 3 amps (though I haven't tested it myself) How much power does the Quest 2 usually draw anyway?

What are your thoughts on ruinmagus

>>383515771
doesn't look like you have to memorize any hand movements
at least an arm or hand movement to activate a certain spell maybe, not just point and click
i don't know what i am expecting, maybe my expectations have been tainted by anime and movies (or that one magic mod for Skyrim)

>>383516316
you can see the interface here, prob just select a spell and clinch your fist or trigger or something

>>383517071
ah i am retarded then, assumed that it was a quest exclusive

>>383504424
>90% doesn't play anything but vrchat
Smelling bit of an ass pull here. I agree with the general conclusion and i don't think there's a lot of people who would spend 100h+ in b&s because simple act of using entire body in natural motions to play game brings them pleasure, but i know for a fact that when i've seen a good quater of people I know here in either pavlov or 'tractors at least once. Also, I always get to find this one fellow bored boy in VRC who would be willing to play 8ball or whatever's available in the game world at the moment. You're not wrong, not everyone enjoys plain act of motion controlled games with 1:1 presence, but 90% and then more doesn't sound right at all.


I don't mind staying a niche. I love VR in current state, i love how someone can release jank ass into the radius without being shunned for low quality, I love playing games that often feel more like experiments in new medium. Being niche isn't bad, i just hope we won't die any time soon.
futur4 doesn't look entirely bright though, we've really lost the momentum through years ;_;

>>383519678
It doesn't really matter if it's 90% or 75%, the fact remains that it's the minority and most of that minority will play very rarely. People who already own headsets can't be bothered to play games, so it's going to be much, much worse for the general population that has to make an investment in the technology.

I am getting my proper VR set this week. Guess I'll be posting here now as well.

>>383522641
Which

>>383523013
HTC vive pro 2 and the whole fbt jazz, because I can afford it.

>>383522641
Welcome! Sorry about the state of the threads, I hope to see you online playing some games or in vrc or something.
Hope you have fun.

>>383523102
nice, did you afforded yourself a pair of knuckles as well? if not, might be a good idea to do it now, so you won't have to suffer on wands before knuckles arrive

>>383523176
Thanks. I'll keep an eye on what anons play here online. I had a lot of fun playing online on my psVR back then.
>>383523518
Knuckles as in the index controllers? No I have not looked into them? Are they that much of a step up? I might get them before FBT

>>383524243
>Are they that much of a step up?
Vive wands are universally regarded as good for nothing, their ergonomy and input was designed for valve's theory of how VR will look like which turned out to be completely incorrect. Look it up, but I'm pretty sure you really, really want knuckles over wands.

>>383524243
Vive wands are some of the worst controllers every made.

>>383524696
>>383524709
Guess I'll have get them then. It just sucks that Valve doesnt sell them in mountain jew land.

>>383524818
You're not even the first nazi gold collector we have

>>383524963
No surprise, but I guess the controllerd have to wait until next paycheck.

>>383524818
>knuckles without valve warranty
ouch. still worth it over using wands, but let it be known that knuckles tend to be getting issues with time. stick drift is a popular issue that can be worked around by setting thumbstick deadzones, but it's not the only thing that could happen to them.

Make 100% sure you can't get them straight from valve in any way or form. If not, oh well, they're not all that horribly expensive to buy again in case one breaks, but i imagine bad aftertaste would stay with you forever.

>>383525394
They'll cost like 490 francs here, through a 3.party site that is.

i really wish i didn't have to troubleshoot this fucking piece of shit every time i actually try to use it
now the fucking screens just won't turn on, even though everything is supposed to be okay

>>383530785
Have you tried turning it off and on again?

>htc vive 2 costs $800.00
>valve index costs 1000.00 but comes with better controllers and lighthouse shit

Did he fugg up?

>>383531443
Vive 2 has a better screen, I guess. Index is already disproportionately expensive.

>>383531443
>Vive 2 has a better screen,
i c

>>383531443
It matters little. Index would be even more expensive here in mountain jew land. I'll see how I like the wands and go from there. Maybe I just cope and deal with it. By the way the basic index through the only swiss reseller costs just short about 1600 US dollars.

>>383531968
damn thats a lot

>>383533315
It sure is. I mean I could also order it on steam via a german VPN, but that opens up a whole other can of worms.(Possible custom controls, warranty etc.) I think I am better off with Vive as it is and maybe get the controllers somewhere else.

>>383531443
>not quest 2
ofc he fucked up

>>383535603
Does vive have inward/outward adjusting focals?
If so it beats having to wear glasses with quest 2

>>383535764
Nothing has adjusting focals. You're going to have to wear glasses with the vive as well.

>>383535764
index has much better adjustment option than quest 2

>>383535764
>focals
lmao no

>>383535764
get rekt glasses kun

>>383535764
On Vive1/Pro/Pro2 you can move the lenses inward/outward to make space for glasses at a cost of lower FoV, but it doesn't change focal length.

It looks like shit honestly. The combat is super basic. The enemies and environments are even more basic. Gray robots repeated+gray repeated hallways make the game super underwhelming. For $40 it looks like an actively bad deal compared to just getting Skyrim VR or Asgard's Wrath or something.

>>383554362
fuck, I liked the look of this when it was announced but this looks fucking garbo, yikes

Am I correct in the assumption that this general is more about VR gaming and the other one is full of trannies and erp? I was a bit confused to see two VR generals

uhh hello?
Im thinking vr chat sissies won

>>383626406
I say this every time there's another attempted 'split' between VRC and other games and that is:
VRC shit keeps the thread bumped. There is not usually enough vr game content to keep a general afloat by itself.

>>383626742
I agree with that but unfortunately those jerks dont answer vr questions or talk about vr games. only their drama and new 3d models

So its shit either way

>>383626742
It doesn't matter. WE are the vr general. A general solely dedicated to a fucking chatroom program masquerading as a proper vr general makes no sense. VRchat is just a secondlife clone that just happens to let you use a VR headset. There is no actual discussion about VR in that general apart from people going in circles and bumping with

Getting my quest 2 this week (with a link, of course. Apart from House Flipper, No Man's Sky, TableTop Simulator, Elite Dangerous, Phasmophobia and Universe Sandbox, does anyone know any cool flat games that either support VR or have a separate VR version?
(Fuck off, Todd, I'm not buying Skyrim for the 5th time)

>>383628743
It looks pretty high quality.
Might be a decent zombie game for vr

>>383630148
What do you mean by "Flat"

>>383630334
non-vr. As in games that are played on a 'flat screen'

>>383630148
>>383630491
Payday 2 has a free VR dlc

>>383630148
There is another great flat game with VR support. It's called Pulsar:Lost Colony. A great game without VR too.

Just tried aircar, shits pretty cool but the resolution is low for some reason on my quest 2, how to do I fix that?

Also its on the brink of making me queezy but I imagine that happens in real life scaling a building with a flying vehicle

>>383631470
You should be able to set the resolution in the software for whatever you're using to stream it (airlink, regular link, virtual desktop etc.) and also I think steam lets you modify the resolution in the menu

>>383631587
Ok I'll check, Im using airlink

>>383629304
So does that mean all the burgers are in the gay vrchat thread?

>>383630680
Don't you need friends to actually enjoy it?

>>383630561
I will check that out, thanks!
>>383630680
Yeah I remember playing Pulsar back in the day. Does it work good on Quest 2 via a link? I saw some footage on YT and it seemed laggy. However it's probably to do with the person's rig.
I also saw that Euro Truck Simulator 2 has a VR mode, epic.

>>383633837
I do not want to know
>>383635756
Not friends nessarily, but yes other humans make it pretty fun.

Well I have two, but not much space in my room, just shy the minimum for room scaling. It will be fidely to get a good play area going it seems.

>>383677782
It shouldn't be hard. If you don't have any reflective surfaces around, just hang them high up according to guidelines and it'll be fine. Those things have insane angles, and should work flawlessly unless something's wrong.

Also, bad controller signal reception affects tracking. Try re-pairing your controllers.

>>383678532
They need to be above head height pointing down towards the center of the playspace.

>>383678685
>>383678745
They hang just above my height, but I can put them a bit higher. I suspect the window row on one side might cause some issues in certain angles. Anyway the controllers need to charge and its late too.

>>383792920
You can get it for even cheaper from key resellers. VR isn't a separate version and I personally liked the game, but it felt a bit bland to me after a while. The most interesting thing to happen to me was running out of fuel and finding a website for an organization that delivers fuel to stranded players. But that was people working around the game's systems.
Also the latest piece of dlc apparently tanked the performance even for people who don't have it, not sure if that's been fixed yet.

>>383794572
The latest dlc also doesn't have vr support, but it's a separate launcher so you can still play vr in the old version of the game.

I know understand why people dislike the htc vive wand controllers. It is a pain in the ass to turn with them. I dont quite get it what or what doesnt make me spin around.

>>383794938
The touchpad is broken. That tends to happen after a few weeks and you have to open it up to make a temporary fix. They're shit in every possible way even if that didn't happen.

>>383795212
Guess I'll have to shit out the money for the valve knuckles after all...

>skybox cant do anaglyph shit for 3d
im so disappointment its unreal
any app for quest 2 that can do it?

Is superhot worth getting or should I look into pirating it instead?

>>383809012
Pirate it. The latest version removed a few scenes that the devs found """""problematic""""". You have to pirate an older version to see everything.

>>383809012
You need a big playing space, 5m x 5m the least to really experience the game. Tries playing it on 2x2, nearly broke my hand twice trying to throw shit and hitting the wall

>>383809012
devs removed important parts randomly on day because they they thought someone could potentially get offended (they already had a trigger warning toggle to turn them off but they removed them completely)
you can probably still get he older versions some way if you buy it though

>>383809012
Pirate it, not because it's not worth the money but because you'll get a better game out of it. If you have the quest 2 get the standalone

>>383809418
>>383810495
any recommendation on where to get it?

>>383809626
thanks for the heads up

>>383810495
I have the reverb g2

>>383811745
Steamunlocked, Steam Underground, 1337x, Rutracker, all have it.

>>383714203
It should be an option if anything, not forced. I'm currently living in the radius on the shortest tide interval. I've noticed that there's only a few places you can actually be teleported to and they're all on the edge of the map.

>>383811745
If you have the quest 2 look into that one launcher, it's on the quest piracy subreddit. For pc follow the other guy's recommendations

>>383811745
Be aware of this pesky walls and doors

BTW, how is a tech demo still the king of th most intuitive vr movement concept and has the most satisfying melee combat, and with U11 a magic system that deserves the name. If they manage to work on the climbing, the best game in vr is going to be a tech demo

>>383813982
It's really amazing how some of the biggest VR games more have a framework showcasing what VR could be rather than actually doing a whole lot with it outside a sandbox.

Games like B&S or Boneworks have amazing physics and VR interactions, but there's not really much to actually do in them once that novelty wears off without modding the hell out of it. In a few years, I hope to see a game with even half the expansiveness and things to do of Skyrim, but having the level of physics and interactions that those games have.

>Join After the Fall Horde game with three quest users
>One Mexican leaves after two rounds silently
>A squeakers has both parents take turns yelling at him to clean his room loudly before he finally leaves
>Host stays around, completely brand new with stock service pistol, but suddenly kills the lobby at round 10
>Get no rewards as as a result, and can't even start Horde at a later wave as you need to be at at least rounds 15 to do that
>Decide that it's not worth gambling and wasting another half an hour and close the game

I am always sorely reminded why I stick to singleplayer VR games.

>>383823265
Planck already adds proper physics based combat along with HIGGS which does the same for general interactions to Skyrim VR. All it needs is weighted weapons at this point so your ability to swing a battle axe around is capped by more than stamina. The game is already lightyears ahead of the rest of the VR scene.

>>383836529
It's not B&S. When you hit people it has some physics reaction, but things like blocking, parrying, doing those with weapons is what really makes B&S melee feel so good, is still lacking and the same Skyrim stuff. That mod is a huge improvement for sure, but people seriously overestimate it.

>>383823265
Blood Trail is the worst offender in my opinion, it could be the modern Doom if the devs were more competent

>>383836364
kek, hearing parents shouting at little kids is one of the funniest things in VR.

>>383836838
Fair enough. I think that Strike Obsfucation System's blocking and parrying is more than serviceable, but it isn't properly physics based yet. I like that Skyrim is an actual game, and have three times as many hours in it as I have in Boneworks and Blade & Sorcery combined as a result.

>>383836364
I usually leave and look for another lobby if there's an open mic quest kid or two. You'll find adults eventually and thankfully it's become easier since launch.

>>383850318
Sleep well anon

>>383836364
my condolences, i would recommend hosting your own horde lobby and hoping that someone sticks around or you ask for NAs or EUs who have ATF to play with you

>>383858534
I'll need to figure out how to host so I can at least go down solo rather than the lobby just dying. I got too comfortable with randos in Deep Rock being quite bearable (There is no crossplay there after all), but VR games in pubs seem to be beyond redemption now.

>>383860468
only join lobbies with steamvr players and only invite steamvr players
when they join make sure that they won't leave early by asking them if they are down to go for 1 to 1 and a half hours
best of luck

>>383860468
Is the game good?

>>383827797
Do any of these battery straps have pass-thru for pc link?

Are PC pavlov servers doing a thing where they can detect I'm using a quest so that I deliberately spawn OOB on specific servers? All of my playspace settings are correct so can't think of any other reason as to why this keeps happening.

>>383809012
It's massively overrated. Sounds like a perfect match on paper, but it has hit detection issues and not really good checkpointing. Feels very much like a first gen VR title that the devs didn't put much effort into beyond the initial novelty.

>>383862078
limited amount of maps and content in general
if you enjoy coop games where you grind for upgrades for your guns and skins, then it might be for you
you can buy it and play it for 2 hours and make your final decision and refund it if you don't like it

>>383867973
Im only guessing but I think that wire shown in the picture is the pass through

EU VTOL VR this afternoon at 18:00 UTC!

Make sure to switch to PUBLIC-TESTING, as there's a bunch of new features for us to try out.

Anyone down to try AtF on Nightmare difficulty today at 18 UTC?

I have no idea what game this is, but have this.

Guys, Redout is apparently free on the Epic Store. Not sure if that includes functionality for the VR mode.

Also I just discovered Redout 2 was coming out on the 27th, wonder if it'll support VR.

>>383883770
VTOL VR in one hour! Remember to switch to the public_testing branch.

>>383661859
Bros there's a shit load of new maps since I last hosted because I've been busy, do we have any recommendations for tomorrows lobby?

>>383764607
Please, god. Would actually be fun in vr, just the right amount of terrifying!!

>>383285387 (OP)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2paNFnw1wRs
can't wait for the day we play Unreal Engine 5 games with these graphics in vr.

Need Deckard now.

>>383903093
If only it hadn't all been thrown away in favor of everything being on Quest. We don't even have a single high budget VR game coming out this year besides F1 '22. RIP.

>>383862078
Yeah. The dumb grinding was patched out and the shooting+gunplay is good. There are only six actual levels+two wave survival maps, but the AI director changes things up to the point where I don't get bored replaying them a lot. The game isn't dead, but pubs are extremely hit and miss sadly.

Are there any good VR games with submarines, apart from subnatutica I guess.

>>383904239
Play Iron Wolf VR for some Das Boot co-op action.

>>383904239

Coop Submarine and Destroyer game

It's complete but one of the two devs died in 2020 though so don't expect further updates.

>>383904401
Interesting. Thank you.

>>383904671
destroyer is left unfinished due to dev death. Submarine portion is great though.

Hi everyone what would be a good cost effective vr starter setup to pickup? I would want to pickup full body tracking type stuff too if anyone has recommendations for that aswell

After the fall now, come steam group for VC!
>>383907018
Used Vive or Index.

>>383902050
VTOL VR lobby up!
Name is "EU VTOL"
Pass is "hotdog"
Make sure you are on the public-testing branch.

See you there!

I think I will lay off the VR until my lenses come. It's a pain the ass to wear my glasses during these temperatures

>>383913886
I just played blind. Finished Alyx and Jet Island this way

>>383914568
It'll take a week at most, so I can wait that long

>>383903887
There's still PSVR 2

>>383907623
EU VTOL kinda sucked today, hopefully we'll have a better time next week! Don't think I'm going to host it on public-testing anymore from now on- it's been a disaster both times now.

>>383907279
Good breeding guys. Next time we will win without Russian interference.

>>383907279
ggs, hopefully i don't shoot the warhead again next time or they fix it damaging players

>>383902453
A lot of them are trash or unfinished.
The CoD maps as always are good. The insurgency ones are bad ports. The Tarkov map was okay, maybe too large and too dark. de_rats is good. h1_Sidewinder, the map with an 'EXTREME NAUSEA WARNING', would be great for Ninja Warrior.

No, they'll spend a few hundred dollars. But the tech needs to be in place first, before it can be made cheap.

Luma explicitly doesn't work in VR though. Hell, raytracing still doesn't work in VR yet. We are more likely to see visual improvements with HDR being added to VR games given that PSVR 2 is getting it.

hi friends, it's unrelated but I might be able to get my payday2 to work in vr again! I just googled some more and there have been new posts about this since the last time I tried and Overkill devs acknowledged it and said it should be fixed in a next update (which was posted end of January) so hopefully it works now! I'm working until the weekend but I'll give it another try when I can

>>383933851
Do you have shaky VR legs? I found climbing in VR to be a bit disorienting at first but now I can throw myself around without worry

>>383933851
I had to play with the graphics settings. It defaulted to maximum or something so I was pretty ill even though I'd mostly gotten over VR motion sickness with other games.

>>383933851
Play more VRChat until you get your VR legs.

I need some help. My teammate is saying that my framework demo is crashing SteamVR for him. I need someone with an Index to test it to see if it's my fault, or his PC.

>>383950592
Fair. Wasn't thinking. Sorry 'bout that.

>>383927985
It's one of my all time favorite VR games, real amazing when you remember it was made by one developer, but at the same time it ruined me on sims, because I realize I only like arcadey action like PW and not autistically realistic sims like DCS, but only Project Wingman and Ace Combat really fill that niche for more modern games, and the latter doesn't have VR support because exclusivity.

How does it compare to pavlov. I am thinking of picking up more fun shooters..

>>383971014
Contractors is probably the second best multiplayer shooter; better mod support, but it's more like CoD to pavlov's CS

>>383972614
I'd probably like that more than pavlov then. I am not really big on CS. I'll check it out this evening.

>>383972614
I don't think that mod support is as good. With Pavlov people can make entirely new game modes and share whatever they want on the workshop. With Contractors you can only make new maps for existing game mods and have to get them approved for Mod.io.

How easy is it to pirate standalone Quest 2 games? I was going to get my siblings one, and they don't have a PC good enough to run PCVR games. Is it just a matter of uploading the apks to the headset? I have an Index, so I don't know how Quest headsets work.

>>383990771
>How easy is it to pirate standalone
very easy, you need devmode and sideloader

>>383989226
its just jap devs being lazy faggots, same shit with vr for re7 on pc

>>383990771
Redditors made a loader that can both download and sideload pretty much the latest version of nearly any quest 2 game. It's far better than pcvr piracy, the thing will even check for updates to the things you have installed and offer to update them. As for what you need to do to enable it, look up guides on how to set up sidequest since if you get that working the piracy sideloader will work as well.

>>383989226
Japs don't care about PC, much less PCVR. There would be no VR in AC7 in the first place if sony didn't pay them to add it.

>>384019849
You spend a lot more time doing things that isn't holding a rifle with two hands in Pavlov. You can't use it in pistol round, it slows down reloading, using grenades, or interacting with the bomb. It gets frustrating having something hanging in front of you that isn't serving any purpose and makes switching to or from your primary potentially take a second or more even with magnets. The worst part of mine was that the rear cup would randomly detach so I had to permanently affix it to the stock, or risk having my gun fall apart at random.

>>384020673
I have a very lightweight stock and only the rear controller is attached to it, for the most part none of these are issues for me

>wait entire life for vr
>finally decide to buy a headset
>its underwhelming because there's nothing truly amazing and immersive to play
>even games that could have been at least fun to play in vr, like resident evil 4, puts all the cutscenes on a screen in front of you that looks FUCKING RETARDED. (the in game vr is fine though, even though it makes me want to puke)

In short: VR BAD
AR IS MY NEW LIFE LONG DREAM

>>384023394
What games specifically did you actually try?

ALSO

I saw that cambridge video yesterday and it mentioned that they were going to allow the quest 2 to do AR on it just like the cambridge, but that means that the cameras on the quest 2 must be high quality and color then right? then why the fuck does the PASSTHROUGH shit look like Fucking DOGGO VISION?

WHY ZUCC WHY

>>384023639
Resident Evil 4
Echo VR
Gunraiders
Pavlov Shack
Aircar (this is a very simple but cool game for 5 mins)
Payday 2
Elite Dangerous (got to the first 2 mins before realizing I wasted 8 dollars since the quest 2 controllers dont work with it on steam)
Beat saber (barely a vr game)

I know now you're gonna say, play into the radius! or that other game, I know its not going to be immersive.
Immersive means you are so into the media, you're not thinking about real life.

When I have to stand up and hope I dont hit a wall or something and I have invisible arms and shit, thats not immersive.

>>384024168
>>384023394
For me it's primarily an advancement of controls beyond mouse and keyboard. Reloading the gun is a game mechanic instead of pressing one button then watching a retarded animation.

>>384024168
Sounds like you just need a bigger space to play in then

>>384023394
I dont get the recent hype about AR. Ive never seen anything AR related that seemed compelling, any games ive seen have been very shallow and gimmicky. The only use case i can really see for it is visualizing products while theyre still in development, but desu if you cant just do that in CAD i dont think youre a very good designer

>>384026027
Oh I did try blade and sorcery for a sec and I got the worst nausea from a game so far.
Not ready for that one

>>384026641
For AR, I mainly would just want it for monitor screens in my face while I lay down (without goggles like quest)

Auto translation of languages, and table top games.

Maybe some holographic girl touching my dick while I jerk off

I would buy AR just for those, but Im sure someone will create something cool... (in 20 years)

>>384026641
Ultimately normalfag applications. Being able to render other people in the room with you like VRchat but with realistic body scan avatars.

>>384026027
>>no modded skyrim
I have never tried skyrim so I am excited to first play it in VR.
but its like 59.99, and im scared to pirate steam games.
Have too much sensitive info on this computer atm.

I need a separate computer just for gaymen

>>384027093
Wouldnt everyone but you just have to be in vr in that scenario? Seems kind of silly to not just do it in vr entirely at that point

>>384027461
Everyone can be in AR.

>Used to play a lot of VR games before|
>Now have full body kit to do crazy things in them

>>384024168
try:
boneworks
half life alyx
outer wilds vr

>>384027362
Honestly if youve never played it you might want to try it out not in vr first, youre going to need some mods to make skyrim vr worth playing. If i were you id try out alyx next time it goes on sale, its the most immersed ive been in vr, and its pretty easy on beginners in terms of not making you motion sick. if alyx doesnt do it for you vr may not be for you
>>384027556

You wouldnt be able to interact with the other person in any meaningful way besides just audio then, what would be the point of my avatar being in your room if i cant control its interaction with that environment?

>>384027757
I bought VR to play VRchat in 2017 but didn't like it and played other games instead.

>>384028347
It will be like meeting them in person without travelling. I think normalfags will really like that.

>>384028627
Why not just video chat then? Thats what i mean, AR does not seem compelling to me, especially at the price to get in, i dont think normies are going to drop an extra several hundred dollars on something that they can get the same results from out of a smart phone

>>384028954
Video chat and 3D presence is completely different to them. I don't get it either. Also, I said 'ultimately'. Cambria isn't going to provide that, but a hypothetical product years from now might.

>>384027362
It's piss easy to pirate. Easily the best SP VR game once you have set it up, definitely worth the five minutes it takes to get it from steam underground or whatever.

From what it sounds like, Sony funded the VR missions and paid for exclusivity as part of promoting PSVR. They were supposed to come to the PC eventually and were just timed exclusives, but we know how that happened. Here's hoping Ace Combat 8 has more fleshed out VR on the PC.

You can try switching to Nvidia NIS inside of the settings. I get huge performance boosts in every game I use it in. Great for things like the Outer Wilds VR mod which isn't terribly optimized. Even at 1x upscaling the sharpening makes games look nicer.

Well, Cambria is coming out this year (even though it's not for gaming). And Quest 3 next year. I don't think Deckard will be this year, most likely late next year.

The problem atm is you either go big or go home. As much as I hate facebook I would say to look into getting a Quest 2 and following the dezucking guide.

>>384044917
It won't make old models bad though, they won't depreciate at new HMD release
>get index
>index 2 is announced, comes out in a year, you're waiting in queue for two years buy one because valve is bad at manufacturing hardware
>index didn't got any worse on index 2 release
>your headset is competent and works well
>you can enjoy vr vidya
Or get quest 2, same rule of usability applies, but with this one you also won't miss this $300 because it's just such a steal.

>>384045276
>Quest 3 next year
i suspected as such with the rebranding recently to meta; i've kept from getting the quest 2 because i hate facebook and the whole account stuff with them, i'm hoping they drop that and maybe i'd consider getting it if the price isn't too high
>following the dezucking guide
yeah, i looked into doing that not too long ago, but ideally i want something i don't have to fuck around with
>The problem atm is you either go big or go home
yep, i haven't wanted to throw down 1k into it since i'm earth's most frugal (jewish) man

i'd probably just get the quest 3, i'd rather wait than buy in and have something new for a similar price with potentially better features come out a few months later

You'll be sacrificing image quality somewhere. The question is just how much. It'll also depend on your resolution, higher base resolution means more for the algorithm to work with. So high fidelity HMDs like the VP2 or 8k X benefit more than something like the Index does. I still wish people would include it as an option. DLSS looks better than FSR 1.0 in VR by a good degree, 2.0 would be awesome.

Personally, I found the VRPerf toolkits FFR feature a god send on Pimax, since it blurs the outer radius for some sizable performance gains, and the parts in your peripheral and outside the sweetspot are a little blurry anyway, so it's not that noticable.

>>384041672
I think they've changed the damage model again because SMGs seem to do absolutely nothing unless it's a head shot now.

I turned 21 today, what kind of drink and game are fun together?

The x-bow+knife in Ancient Dungeon is really fun. I got an upgrade to increase the size of the dagger in this run so it wasn't even a downside compared to the normal sword. Splash damaging an area for up to 48 damage is great.

>>384052509

and you can rip every song from rockband with tools from devs? what the fuck, its too good, its like 10 years ago with rocksmith, i could EASILY see new rockband game when you can play drums (like in paradiddle), guitar, rhythm, bass with hand tracking 2.0 but it probably never gonna happend

Haven't touched SkyrimVR in almost a year, any good mods come out recently?

>>384059343
Goodluck

>>384061073

>>384061073
This year we've gotten Planck for physics based combat and NPC interaction, the Parallax Texture Fix for sexy 3D textures, Glamur for good and performant ambient occlusion+fake global illumination, and best of all https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/67637 for playing fetch with dogs. It works on any dog NPC too in case you have a modded in dog companion or whatever.

Oculus gave me a 30% coupon, what's worth buying that I can't just pirate?
I'm tempted to grab Zenith, I've always wanted to play a VRMMO. Just not sure if it's the horse to bet on or if there'll be an even better VR MMO in the future (it amazes me we don't have a high quality, official SAO VR MMO yet, I guess not enough adoption to make it worthwhile)

>>384071701
Get After the Fall. It's gotten pretty good with the more recent patches. It's actually not dead either. It's a good option if you want to be able to hop in for co-op games whenever you want.

>>384056771
It's genuinely good. Even though it doesn't have motion controls it's more immersive to just use a stick for it anyways. It's definitely one of the best singleplayer VR campaigns you can play.

>want to try installing one of the wabbajack packs to try a bunch of the new shit
>but I've already got a run going with a bunch of mods and I don't want to start over
shit

>>384085565
Adding Planck or whatever on top of an existing modlist is easy. I don't see why you need wabbajack if you have the basics set up already.

>>384096052
the modlist I used was basically Lightweight Lazy List but with 10-20 extra mods I liked. Turns out that was abandoned and now it's a wabbajack pack that has a bunch of the same mods but also a bunch of stuff changed or removed. I was wondering how much the changes might've improved things, but I doubt it's worth restarting for

>>384097308
Higgs and Planck are save safe at least as they are SKSE plugins. As long as you aren't adding in Enairim stuff halfway into the game you are good.

I finally got my first clear in Ancient Dungeon. I love how varied the upgrades are by the time you get to the final boss. What bugs me is that from what I can tell the side areas in the free version of the game are no longer in it. I guess that they will be early accessed' back in eventually. Runs take a surprising amount of time too. I hope that there is a way to actually kill the final boss in the current version at least.

finally finished re4, they did pretty great job with the conversion
i hope i will be able to afford 3060 one of these days so i can play pcvr a well

anyone played unplugged with hands tracking 2.0 update?
i just played like 1h and its fucking amazing, being able to do everything with only your hands feels really great and it works
i dont get why devs didnt make rhythm and bass for songs it looks like you play everything
for example, you play bass intro for are you gonna be my girl
and to be clear i have real guitar so i have some idea of how it should work
imo 'holding' neck is weird and fact they are locking you thumb kind of fucks with your brain and when you play i found myself fighting neck that moves the way i didnt want it to move, there should be option to soft lock it

>>384126531
The old wmr controllers have that problem too, mine would constantly switch to low power mode until I cleaned the contacts. I guess companies like cheaping out on contact materials.

>>384118996
Truly VR. While not B&S tier, it is physics based. Your weapons are weighted and properly collide with the environment and the enemies. In the mines you will be shouting "Back fiend!" while fending off surprisingly agile skeletons by keeping them at bay with your sword. You can do fun things like deflecting projectiles and punting enemies into pits too. The knife throwing and crossbow usage couldn't be done in desktop either as they are all motion based.

Any way to leave this flesh prison ?

>>384160623
Hit the gym. That or get a Chilldex and enjoy comfy air on your face so you can sit on your ass playing Skyrim VR for hours at time.

>>384160908
Does hitting the gym really makes it so that your eyes tire less easily ?

>>384160623
get some hyaluronate or something

>>384160623
do your eyes get or feel dry? is your eye distance set correctly on the lenses?
do you spend a lot of time in front of a screen, be it computer or other devices?
do you struggle making out shapes on the headset display?
do you have any indicators that you might have bad eye sight?
make sure that you have a bottle of water nearby so that you can stay hydrated while playing and your eyes have the water they need to keep them moist
if you suspect that you have bad eye sight go get it checked and consider buying vroptician lenses if you only need it for the headset
if you spend a lot of time in front of screens, try to take breaks and look out the window into the distance so that your eyes can adjust to something else
also if the screen is too bright for you use night mode when the sun goes down and turn down the brightness

>>384160623
Ensure you're wearing it correctly. I used to get terrible eye pain but eventually realized the headset was pulling my eye lids slightly so blinking was more difficult.

>>384160623
If you're feeling dizzy that's you needing to get your VRlegs. It's motion sickness that you get over.

>>384161347
Basically one of my eyes will start to hurt a little after ~1h30min. Could be that they're getting overworked.
I have some astigmatism and not perfect eyesight but I don't use glasses. I do see some "reflections" for example if there's white text on a black background, I don't know if that's normal. The headset settings are fine but I do spend a lot of time in front of screens usually, I can play a little more if I play early in the morning.
Maybe it's a combination of no prescription+too many screens.

My 1060 3gb is still holding me back, but at .5 supersampling, the games are actually playable. Its like playing in 360p, but I dont mind. Theyre still very immersive. I'll probably shit a brick when I get a good GPU one day and run everything at amazing graphics.

the payday2 devs introduced a new outfit just for us! also I finally got it working again in VR holy shit

After playing scavenger mod in ITR for like 10 hours or so I can say I do not like it. It's very difficult to get off the ground and if anything happens during the initial lift off period you're basically stuck and have to reset.
doesn't help that I was playing the beta and the save file got destroyed 3 times due to beta updates, but my most recent try I got killed by unavoidable damage inside an anomaly field. For some reason they added damage that can't be avoided inside gas anomalies and the gas mask actually does nothing against it. And so, all my guns (because I needed to carry them all at once to use the different types of ammo I was finding) and my only gasmask are now stuck inside this anomaly, irretrievable until I find another gas mask and my entire armament is the starting makarov. It's worse than starting fresh because the guaranteed items are now looted too.

the loot balance is godawful; I find so many fucking sawnoffs and pistols I don't give a shit about inside orange crates. I'm dying for ammo and it's like; another sawnoff? Sure! Wait I heard you want a 5th glock. Ammo? haha no.

>>384222037
Oh in addition; loot crates are 95% in areas you need to shoot to get to. So you're spending ammo... to collect ammo. Sometimes less ammo than you spent getting there because you found 2 glocks and a sawnoff and 15 rounds of 9x18.

>>384222328
Oh and anomaly fields and money are completely worthless, deleting half the game.

>>384222037
>It's very difficult to get off the ground
Nigga what? You get free guns everywhere. Ammo for sure you never really have enough but you should know by now you don't need to kill enemies. You can sneak past them. Darkness and crouching makes you nearly invisible. You've also got to remember not to waste your +P and AP on unarmoured enemies. Headshots with 9x18 are extremely effective at clearing out those unwanted low tier enemies and you find that shit everywhere. Buckshot too. Anomaly fields have the gravi artefact for carry weight reduction too so they're good to look through.
I've just finished the train mission in my scav run. Completed it by dropping my weapons at the gate except for my pistol and some injectors. I sprinted in, popping the rift, and sprinting out the other side. Circled around to get my big gun (AK47) and lose aggro, then came back at night to sneak in and complete the ritual. Didn't have to kill many enemies because I lead them away from the train yard with the quick dash. I imagine the castle will be pure pain and suffering though.

>>384228223
Yes you get Guns everywhere, but after the 5th glock you realise you can't shoot it.
I was running higher enemy health though kek

I think people with gender dysphoria would be better off living out their "true" selves in VR instead of trying to physically alter their bodies. Physical alterations with modern medical techniques are limited to purely cosmetic features and often do little to properly emulate the desired change.

Do any tranny folks feel this way or does VR not enough?

>>384229173
>I was running higher enemy health though kek
you did it to yourself but also git gud

>>384222037
The bugged gas mask is because you were using an outdated version of the mod. I'm playing with:
>scarce mod
>decreased enemy health
>decreased enemy amount
>highly increased enemy damage
>highly decreased tide interval
Enemies are more rare, but far more dangerous.

To make redundant items have a purpose, I also save only at beds, and if I die I reload my last save, discard everything I was carrying*, and skip forward to the next tide. I convert paper into 10 balls when I use it then discard, and discard one brush when a can runs out.

>>384246317
shitty accelerometer maybe. Is it just when you turn it on or persistent? wave the controller in a figure eight motion for a few seconds when you turn it on.

>>384247259
It's pretty rare, happens when it has been on for a while and I don't think it happens shortly after turning it on.

Will waving it in a figure 8 help it calibrate better on startup or is it a test to provoke the bad tracking to surface? If so, then what?

>>384245097
We could list off some some, but you would probably just say they suck anyway.

>>384247862
accelerometers "calibrate" from zero every time on start up, normally they're good enough that you don't notice, sometimes they're kind of shit and they need a bit of help but if you're getting issues some way into a session then it's probably something else.

The thing that's been annoying me lately is just how much of a nightmare trying to play pcvr wirelessly is atm. I have the ideal network conditions, a more than powerful enough pc (3080), ideal setup etc. and I still cannot get the experience to be smooth. It's always fucking something. I've spent hours trying to optimise Virtual Desktop, Airlink, and ALVR wired and wireless and I literally cannot get anything to work well enough to the point where I can spend more than 10 minutes in a game without being disappoint.

Just a fucking nightmare. When it comes to just playing on a quest 2, even though the graphics look like a fucking mobile game from 15 years ago, I'd rather take it on there than having to fuck around with the pc version. I hope Deckard solves this problem and they improve SteamVR some more. The frustrating thing is that I've got ideal conditions for everything and I've still got trouble.

>SteamVR constantly resetting it's rendering quality slider
I've never seen this happen, seems to save all my per game resolutions without issue.
>No way in the oculus control panel to set the resolution manually
There is. I don't have a cable anymore but I remember being able to set the resolution and turn off auto scaling in the Oculus app.

>>384255203
>I've never seen this happen, seems to save all my per game resolutions without issue.
The global setting, not individual game settings. The definition of "100%" is often changing, one moment it's the native resolution of the quest 2, another it's in the 3000x3000 range for some fucking reason.
>There is. I don't have a cable anymore but I remember being able to set the resolution and turn off auto scaling in the Oculus app.
You didn't finish the sentence. Of course there is a way to turn off the automatic rendering adjustment in the menu, it's right there. What it doesn't let you do is set the rendering quality anywhere near the native res of the panel. It was only letting me set the slider to a minimum of 2467x1980 for some reason, which is still more horizontal resolution that the actual panel resolution.

You would think that a wired connection would be a slam dunk in terms of solving all issues and getting the most out of the headset, but from having previous experience with wired oculus headsets (my 2013 devkit was fine, Rift S was always had usb issues on MULTIPLE different computers) it's anything but. I know people have issues with Index and steamVR as well. The standlone quest 2 experience might have dogshit graphics but at least it's a standalone device with a fixed spec.

>>384256673
>The definition of "100%" is often changing
If you are using VD then VD decides the 100% resolution, the low, medium, high settings change the resolution, there might be some automatic adjustment setting in there, I don't have it on right now.
>It was only letting me set the slider to a minimum of 2467x1980 for some reason
I believe the reason the resolution doesn't match the panel is something to do with the way VR is rendered as a distorted image and then corrected by the lenses, if it was rendered at the same resolution as the panel it wouldn't look right.

can I do 120hz through airlink or still no?

>>384256673
You should be able to set the 1.5x preset at 90hz and it should work fine for airlink. I have a 3080 and that's what I use. For some reason on my network airlink compresses shit too much but VD performs better with 50mbps and the "Ultra" graphic setting. Setting to "native resolution" will look like shit because it's not compensating for barrel distortion and Oculus needs a little extra room in a frame to do their "time travel" shit to reduce latency

Just got my Quest 2 and holy shit that headband is fucking useless, they really made it as bad as possible just to upsell their "elite" headbands didn't they. Guess I'll grab a 3rd party one off amazon asap.

>>384267048
Yeah, avoid the elite strap at this point. The battery is nice, but third parties have mogged them on reliability.

>>384260842
I do. Used to run off the wifi in my ISP provided modem but the latency made it unplayable at 120.
I now have an ASUS wifi6 router in my VR room connected to my PC by wire. No detectable latency.

>>384241971
Ballistic NG is better anyways.
