/vrgg/ - Virtual Reality Gaming General #37

there are no new upcoming VR games to look forward to

>>408013067
It's basically just TWD: Saints & Sinners 2, which is coming out in a couple weeks.
Anything I would look forward to is likely locked to PSVR2. Eg. REmake 4's VR mode. We also had shit like the 'MMO' Zenith launch and then completely died in a month. 2022's been a fucking poor year for PCVR.

>>408013067
there are a few smaller games planned on being released in the next few quarters. But triple A, hyper marketed normieware, nowhere to be seen, and that is a good thing

>>408013067
I will make one!

>>408015539
And what have you made so far?

>>408013067
The real issue is not having any new upcoming VR headsets to improve our experience in the already good existing VR games. Namely simracing ones.

Intel or Ryzen for new VR PC build, or does it not matter much

>>408017591
While you're retarded, the problem is legitimately that the hardware is far too inaccessible and nothing will change until that stops being the case.

>>408019295
If Ryzen, go get 5800X3D
Their regular CPUs are shit for gaming
Intel just always works good, with no need to look up for good RAM timings, so choose whatever will be cheaper for you

>>408019384
cheers

>>408019326
I really just want PSVR2 to be the push to shove that is modern PC/PS5 games bothering to support a VR mode on the side (be it the full game or some side thing) since Sony is making that end of things accessible with games that do more than mobile graphics.

>>408019384
The ram issues with amd have been solved since the 2xxx series, only applied to the first ryzen gen.
>>408019295
Get a processor that is in your budget, bottlenecks are gpus with less then 10GB of good vram

>>408022305
my current build is i5 8600k with 1070TI. think im due for an upgrade

>>408011686 (OP)
Dumb Question: I read that a PC cable "won't work" if you have a sub-par computer. Does that mean you won't be able to upload files to the device using the cable if your computer doesn't meet the recommended specs?

>>408028649
You probably heard some retard meaning you couldnt use PCVR if your computer cant render games. File transferring will work just fine.

>>408023026
You still have a midrange system funnily enough. I feel like pc hardware hasnt moved that much in the lat 5 years.

>>408029750
It hasn't. The hard limit of silicon got hit back then and companies have just been slow releasing upgrades they figured out years ago to nickel and dime consumers.

>>408029017
I see. Thanks for the answer.

>>408019987
What's the news on PSVR2 anyways? Since these consoles use AMD GPUs I'm curious if AMD can finally be good for VR.

>>408017591
Headsets dont matter when there's a 6+ long draught of games. I just want something like touch controllers removable batteries again. Having index controllers that last 7 hours when we have body trackers that can last as long was 18 hours with extended batteries is soul crushing.

>>408047082
We have enough good games although yeah I'd agree we can only benefit from a new rally game or a touring cars game.

>>408011686 (OP)
I heard you can't enter a bunch of worlds in VRchat with the Quest 2. But if I use the quest 2 as pcvr glasses (connected to the pc with a cable instead of as a standalone) then can I access to all the worlds or would I still have restricted worlds for some reason?

>>408050484
You can access all the worlds then

>>408050940
Thanks.
Would you recommend the Quest 2 as a budget pcvr headset or is there any better bang for buck option I don't know about?

I really shouldn't stick my penis in there
...HOWEVER

>>408051184
It's currently the best budget option.
You can snag a discount HP Reverb G2 direct from HP right now for $300 but people say it's best for simulators since the controller tracking isn't quite as good as others but the resoultion is higher.
There's also the Pico headsets that are chinese clones of the quest but I forget the caveats.

Oh and the Q2 also has a black friday special going

>>408051184
>>408051829
Pico 4 is a better headset than quest 2, its lacking in software though. Compression is not quite as good, hand tracking etc. Id still get it over q2 desu, already stuck with g2 though.

>>408030416
means upgrading now into new hardware is pretty much pointless, if you can get great hardware from 3 years ago for a fraction of the msrp

>>408013067

>>408028649
>I read that a PC cable "won't work" if you have a sub-par computer
for oculus CV1 you had to have a computer with "good" or very specific USB chipset on the MB, or a separate card

Got the Quest 2 black friday deal. Didn't download Resi4 yet.

I'll be real, I wanna coom and experience things that will make it feel like VR was worth it. Any recommendations (and corresponding apks)?

I gotta be careful not to put anything that is on the app store lest I get bricked.

Someone redpill me on Lonn cus right now I ain't feeling it despite being shilled elsewhere.

>>408056375
You can pirate apps like re4. for cooming you'll want to hit up the /trash/ thread for questions.

>>408057435
>despite being shilled elsewhere
As always, marketing does way more to break it rather than just making the game
DIdn't played though, but assume it's just boneworks but probably better story

i hate the antichrist!

that's it. saiga-chan is just too abusive, even if price-performance is excellent

>>408059142
>Check out VR Lewd General in /trash/
>VRchat.
>Discord drama.
Not that anon but I'm starting to feel an iota of regret right now.

>>408052170
>Its lacking in software
I suppose for pcvr that is completely irrelevant though, right?

>>408066242
just don't associate with anyone and you'll be okay

>>408067742
Not entirely. Last time I checked compression through wireless VD was better than usb-c cable. Not a picofag, it might have changed already.

>>408064504
Switch to the spas12 and use the ammo cap upgrade. 12 round tube, same stats.

>>408064504
Thems the dangers of using random ammo you find laying around.

>>408059142
He's saying he hasn't downloaded it because it comes free with the headset

>>408056375
Anons are playing Into the radius for a reason. If you want to experience fear, despair and uncertainty, I havent found anything better.
if your pc is upper midrange get the pc version
For the degenerate experiences, /vrg/

What are the must-have tools for someone wanting to use a quest 2 in PCVR? Shit like OVR Toolkit, XSO Overlay, things like that.

>>408073334
>Wanting extra shit hogging your resources
Play it raw. Only thing I ever use otherwise is OVR Advanced Settings because SteamVR is retarded when it comes to syncing up playspace position with Oculus at times.

>>408074307
>play it raw except don't
Yeah, thanks, retard. Any more knuckle-dragging wisdom to share?

>>408074852
Run everything Oculus native where able. Shit runs better (not having the overhead of two APIs taking up 500mb of vram each) and more likely supports ASW2.0 native as a result. You don't get it via SteamVR.

*cough*

>>408084435

>>408084435
should have worn the gas mask anon

>page 10
recommend me some pcvr stuff. I just bought a quest 2

>>408099252
Go play RE4 VR first.

>>408099394
Headset won't arrive until the 3rd and the steam sale is in a couple days.

>>408099252

>>408099252
>I just bought a quest 2
I'm sorry.

Alright, so there's this Pico 4 VR headset, and it's...
>more comfortable to wear than Quest 2
>lighter than Quest 2
>has better lenses
>better hardware
>no facebook/meta bullshit
>no forced account creation
>completely open android system
>same price range
...so why the fuck isn't it more popular than Quest 2?

>>408118272
>no facebook/meta bullshit
>>407103902 (Cross-thread)
>...so why the fuck isn't it more popular than Quest 2?
It's sidegrade to Quest 2, most VR owners either upgraded to Q2 long before, upgraded to Reverb G2(which is better for their needs over Pico too) or gave up on VR at all

all my homies hate triangles

>>408118272
Because daddy meta used their big money to cut deals with all the developers so that the app store is completely empty making it functionally not a standalone headset at all. You also forgot to mention it has eye tracking for dynamic FR, which not even the quest 3 is going to have.

>>408119097
Oh I love this map. Tesla is a bro in time
Also I know exactly which part where you hold a spinning triangle that made you hate it
So good

>>408118272
Beyond all schizo reazons, it's because it's not selling in North America, and I'm guessing they have no marketing in Europe compared to Quest 2. And it's a newborn ecosystem.

>>408113914
Did this ever get pirated, I never found a version with the vr mode that actually worked.

>>408118272
If it came out in April this year, I would have probably gone for it, but why do I need a second headset, when I already have a quest2

>>408119715
We got the triangle super close to the end, but then just barely broke it and had to start again. We were like "Nah this is dumb, skipping it"

>>408023026
>>408029750
I went from a i7 8700k with a 1080 to a 5800x3d and a 3090 pretty recently and got more than double the frames at 200% supersampling in vrchat. That's a pretty good improvement if you ask me.

>>408118272
its literally just a better quest 2, but its not sold in NA and this place/vr is dominated by Americans

>>408118272
came out only like a months ago and yea, >burgers

Please gib cool/fun worlds either for exploring or game-playing

>>408137560
You invested about 2K into system 1, hopefully found a buyer that took it for more then 1K and now bought a new system for about 3K for a 2x increase in coomer simulator. Sorry that sounds like a bad deal and that is assuming you found somebody buying system 1 at a good price

>>408148968
seethe

>>408149562
About what exactly. I am playing with the thought of upgrading since the 20xx series and the value to performance increase is just too bad. Looking at the current top hardware of amd, intel and nvidia, I think if I would run a 9xx system, its time to upgrade, with an 10xx series gpu, lets see what the 50xx series brings

*yawns*

I know this thread is not about playing VR vidya games, but i still do
Any good workshop maps? I remember there was some map shilled on PC Gaming Show, was it good in the end?
I played custom maps of early 2021, but missed anything else until now

Finally got around to trying the Zenith update. Quite a few QoL changes and some new content added since I last played. There's cosmetics, a battlepass thing with daily/weekly quests, a new tutorial and pets.
You unlock specific pets by catching them in the world a ton of times; They have a chance to escape the ball but you can reduce that by getting direct hits or throwing from long range. The higher level pets look like they require a long grind.

>>408166162
Here he is, I had to find and catch 15 beetles just to summon him. He is pettable. They can also level up gain and perks depending on what type of pet they are. This one's special power is to... automatically pick up vegetables.

>>408166162
>>408166826
>60 gorrillion dollars for this

>>408166162
>cosmetics, a battlepass thing with daily/weekly quests, a new tutorial and pets
damn, those bitches sold out instantly huh

>>408168240
They always had some backer reward and deluxe edition cosmetics/pets planned. The rest looked to be ingame only and the battlepass had a year duration so I assume it's meant to be closer to a permanent progression system.

bros

>>408176534
Not fan of 3rd person VR games

>>408176534
I'm not sure what this means contextually.

>>408118272
Because it's a new, chinese piece of electronics with absolutely 0 support or warranty. Last week I was going to buy one from one of their official retailers; I contacted the faggots to ask if I would have any sort of warranty in my country, and they didn't even reply. On top of that, games bought from their store are region locked to China, there is very little info about what games are actually available and there are practically no third-party accessories.

At least with the Quest 2 I could get a two-year warranty covering everything. What would I have done if my Chongculus broke or failed in any way? I'd be fucked.

>>408161682
>I remember there was some map shilled on PC Gaming Show
not out yet afaik, but haven't keept tabs on it.
Other recommendations:
gunman ( maybe called different?)
return to rapture

Other than that I haven't tried that many, need to get around that.

thanks fren i will check these out

>>408150006
You're the type to complain about horrible frames when you literally have shit hardware.

>>408183490
The fuck? Like you're playing your VR furry porn game and SC6 boots up an Ivy gameplay demo video out of nowhere?

>>408185976
yes, but in the headset you see garbage, like only 1 eye shows some part of the menu, and another eye something else

>>408099252
Get a battery pack that can attach to the back of the Q2. Your cheeks will thank you for it.

>>408187141
I did. I got the bobo M2 strap with battery, link cable, headphones, lens protector (can't order prescription lenses right now) and I'm hoping to get a VRcover Fitness facial cover tonight.

>>408099252
If you haven't played Skyrim, get SkyrimVR and mod the hell out of it, or just install the FUS Wabbajack modpack (or the Tahrovin wabbajack modpack of you're coomer inclined). It's on sale from various outlets atm. You'll still have to babysit wabbajack as it downloads the required mods, but it beats having to do it yourself manually.

There's also a VR Black Friday pack on Humble. Get it for Superhot VR and the other games as a bonus.

Finally broke down and ordered a quest since there's an RE4 bundle.

I have a modem in the living room but want one in my office for VR, can I daisy chain a modem from there in my office or do I have to move my computer closer to the modem?

t. Good with computers, know nothing of networking.

>>408200963
yes

>>408200963
Why not just get a longer cable?

>>408206649
It's a shitty modem from a no-name ISP and they have a very limited number of modems listed as compatible, and again, I know nothing of networking.

>>408207161
How are you planning on utilizing the modem? From what I can tell, there's no need for you to be moving your computer or modem around unless you wanted to do wireless PCVR.

>>408200963
You can plug your headset to the office PC and do cable link without issue.
If you want wireless link you'll have to be close to the modem BUT considering that you say your ISP's modems are shitty, you might not even be able to.

got the reverb in today
linux can read the cameras and IMUs
so that's somethin
I think I need to enable some compile switches
tomorrow

Am I even going to be able to get a "feel" for DCS without buying into HOTAS? Not really against buying a joystick/maybe some other crap, just kind of want to like, want to get in the air and do some basic stuff before dropping money (yes I'm aware it's the most expensive free game etc.)

>>408125158
Yes, you can find everything you need in the gal gun 2 thread on cs rin.
Clean steam files on page 7, and crack on page 8, or you can grab the repack on page 8 if you prefer.

>>408200963
I have an ethernet cable but am running off wifi several rooms away with air link. If I can get away with what I do in Pavlov (been a year by the way, how dead is that game, was like 1-2 TDM/SND servers and the rest TTT last) it can't be hurting latency that much

>>408223395
No, for DCS you need the equipment, but why not play VTOL? Are you really that much into it, imo it's a waste of money.

>>408228286
I am playing VTOL which is how I got interested in DCS as an autism simulator (also with better graphics)

>>408229232
>>408228286
Also what's a waste of money the planes or equipment? I can grab a $30 piece of shit logitech joystick off Amazon and I assume I can mount my racing wheel for 12 easier-to-access-than-keyboard buttons plus use the pedals as rudders/an air brake

bross I'm getting views!

>>408229692
Planes go on sale often, don't buy full price, equipment is a bitch because there's no good stick, I don't know what the fuck to buy myself.

Thanks, I'm definitely going for wireless so I believe I'll hold off from buying a new modem for now and test it when the time comes. If I can start up a game in the office and move the headset to the living room/modem that's a fine solution as well.

I can't wait for the new lighting on my favorite map, Datacenter, in the long awaited update for Pavlov VR from Davevillz.

My fellow brothers
What should I get for coop vr?
I played zombies in Pavlov but it left me yearning for more, as it gets really repetitive

>>408284915
I don't recommend getting it just for the TF2 mod if you don't like multiplayer shooters given it's being built on top of one. They only just added the medic class and their first payload map so it's very much unpolished.
Regardless the TF2 mod population right now is 3 full 10 player lobbies out of 80 total Contractors lobbies.
Star Wars mod is more polished and more popular. There are 7 of those, 3 of which are maxed at 16 players.

I never have trouble finding a 16 player Star Wars lobby to join, even moreso at weekends, but sometimes I've had to host my own TF2 lobby. If those numbers look low it's because there's lots of other loadouts also being played: Halo, revolutionary war, ninjas, CoD weapon ports, Tarkovshit and even Fortnite now.

I at least breath in really sharp when shit like that happens.

I'm still waiting for my quest to be delivered but I'm going to buy some games on Steam. I have a Ryzen 5 and a 3070 so I want to do PCVR, help me separate the wheat from the chaff:

Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades
Half Life Alyx
VTOL VR
Creed: Rise to Glory
Thrill of the Fight (Need to buy this one on oculus store.)
Virtual Desktop (same as above)
Into the Radius VR
Blade and Sorcery
Hellsplit: Arena (overlap with B&S?)
OVR Toolkit
Walkabout Minigolf VR
Vermillion
I Expect You To Die (probably going to get from humble bundle)
Song in the Smoke
No Man's Sky
BattlegroupVR
Pavlov OR Contractors? What's better for single player with bots?

>>408301882
>H3VR
ehhh, okay i guess, worth a try? My personal opinion is that it's an ancient piece of jank that only ever got popular because it was one of first freedom sandboxes of this magnitude
>alyx
must have
>vtol
hell yea
>creed/thrill of the fight
only tried latter, had tons of fun and broke a sweat quite a bit
>ItR
my favorite
>B&S
my another favorite
>I Expect You to Die
old and dated, but you can't deny it has its charm, fun little adventure-puzzle
>NMS
not horribly great for VR, but since you're new to the topic, you might love it just for the sense of presence
>pavlov or contractors
both, but if you have to pick one before other and just enjoy it in singleplayer, pick pavlov if you're CS person and tractors if you're cowadooty person

>>408302414
What would you recommend as a more modern alternative to H3VR's "fuck around with guns" kind of thing?

>>408301882
>Half Life Alyx
good tech demo for index, great atmosphere, bit short
has an insane level of polish, which you will feel when you play other VR games

>Creed: Rise to Glory
pretty fun, but repetitive
prepare a face gasket/mask that is washable

>Into the Radius VR
kino as fuck

>Blade and Sorcery
people like it, I found the combat wanting
pretty hit and miss, you might like it. If not: refund

>OVR Toolkit
I never use VR without

>No Man's Sky
okayish in desktop, absolute kino in VR
Gameplay is kind of... ehh?, is completely saved by the insane atmosphere

>Pavlov OR Contractors? What's better for single player with bots?
both are fun, but not with bots

Note:
There are great games with VR mods that feel like they are made by the devs.
If you like the armosphere from NMS for example, make sure to check out Outer Wilds. The VR mod is insanely well made and makes an already great game even better.

>>408303236
>OVR Toolkit
>I never use VR without

Any other must-have utilities?

wait for nu-male sky psvr patch, they will probably add similar shit to pc

By the way to that one hoe talking shit at me for upgrading from a 5800x to a 5800x3d, it actually did improve my fps in VR.

>>408302717
ItR, Pavlov, any game with guns. If you want specifically what h3vr offers, then by all means give it a shot, many enjoy it. I think ItR in particular hits those gun fun feels, you kinda feel more attached to your shity soviet pew pew pellet pusher once you give it a good rub with wd40 and a toothbrush to make it all nice and shiny, and there are also gun mods in game and all.

>>408299364
I am so glad I gave up trying to get anything out of that spot. Fuck zapper anomalies

>>408301882
That's a good list.
>No Man's Sky
Just beware that this thing is a resource hog in VR. My 5600x and 3070 stutters and struggles with it at times.
>Blade and Sorcery / Hellsplit: Arena
Lots of overlap here. If you get both make sure to try them in the refund window.
>Pavlov OR Contractors
Both are similarly bad for singleplayer. Pavlov has abysmal bots but good Nazi Zombies custom maps. Contractors has less awful bots but only in their wave survival mode.
>>408302717
H3VR is the best gun autism sim. It's just that playing with guns in VR has less appeal when most of them games already have guns in them along with more interesting things to do with those guns.

>>408301882
>Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades
mechanically impressive but that's about it. fun to fuck around for an hour or two but there is no gameplay at all.

>Half Life Alyx
babby's first VR game, a solid introduction and worth at least 1 playthrough.

>Into the Radius VR
all around good. it has some level of gun autism where you have to maintain your weapons and mags, even if it's just using spray, a toothbrush, and a cleaning rod. you also have to manually fill your mags with ammo, which i like.

>Blade and Sorcery
a good turn-your-brain-off game. still feels like a tech demo, suffers from the same issue a lot of other VR games have; it feels very one-track at the moment but fun if you're in the mood for it.

>No Man's Sky
really disappointed with this one. the performance is godawful, and nothing I could do improved it much (3080 + ryzen 5800x)

>Pavlov OR Contractors? What's better for single player with bots?
only played Pavlov, the community zombie maps can be fun. most of the fun I have in this game is on custom maps, so I'm worried for the big engine update coming that's going to brick everything.

Have some more opinions:

>SkyrimVR
worth getting. very easy to get set up, despite what your experience modding Skyrim might be. The Wabbajack installer does 95% of the work for you if you're okay installing a modpack someone else made. The FUS pack is a great place to start, since it provides all the essentials for a VR modlist that you can build on.

>ZenithMMO
SAO-inspired VR MMO. Reeks of unity jank, but can be fun with friends. they added a pokemon minigame that I find myself addicted to at the moment.

>Beat Saber
must have, and there is a massive library of community-made songs. this game can be a surprisingly good workout

>>408305863
Is Skyrim VR combat as dogshit as the regular version? Admittedly I played the 360 version back in the day so I never tried mods but it was rough.

Beat Saber comes with every Quest 2, right? I think I'll stick with that version for now and then try the PC version later.

>>408306060
>I played the 360 version back in the day
fuck I just remembered that this game is roughly 10 years old by now

>>408306060
>Is Skyrim VR combat as dogshit as the regular version?
You can alleviate it somewhat. Bows are absolutely broken, especially with the headshot mod. Magic is fun as FUCK, especially with modded spells that make you feel really powerful. For melee, I cranked up the minimum threshold to detect a melee swing so in order to hit anything I need to pretty much swing hard enough that I can hear my controller wooshing through the air. The combat overall isn't balde and sorcery tier, but it's serviceable.

The FUS modlist I mentioned optionally adds a couple combat mods, such as timed blocks and the headshot mod. I found the difficulty pretty enjoyable turning it up to legendary and slightly increasing the headshot damage. Summons and crowd control become important, as does placing your shots well. There's also a mod that lets you throw your weapons and return them like thor's hammer

>>408306060
Overhauled with mods it can be. Storing weapons on your body, two handing the crossbow or casting spells by drawing gestures make it pretty immersive.

>>408304497
Yeah I did it. Got it for 350. Easiest purchase of my entire life.

My valve index made some weird hissing sound for a few minutes(didn't stop when turned off/on), it didn't seem to come from the ear speakers.
It still seems to work perfectly fine for the last hour afterwards.
Should I be worried?

I still dont understand why people get the index when its been known that it was atrocious QC for years, do you just plan on never using it again when its out of warranty?

>>408329069
Could be one of the speakers is loose, Valve seems to overtighten them or something. Worse is the possibility that it could be the first sign of a dying cable.

>>408331421
I held back from getting one as soon as I saw the stick drift roulette. Every time I wonder if I made the right decision I soon hear an Index user complaining about or fumbling around with their grip controls.

>>408267735
I don't see anything wrong with this

>>408306060
>Beat Saber comes with every Quest 2, right?
yes but you have to buy the songs meanwhile on PC I believe you could just mod the songs in. not sure though since I don't have the PC version either

You can install the global store on it and change the region, people are also discussing the possibility of flashing the global firmware on it. You could do that with Pico 3.
But yeah, no warranty is scary, if you get a faulty unit, then you're basically fucked.

although for nearly the same price stumbled across this, with a throttle. Kind of wondering now if even vtol would work better with HOTAS while everything else stays the same, though picking up and putting down controls to mess with MFDs doesn't seem ideal

Yeah this doesn't make much sense thinking about it, trying to justify it even $40 for at least one other game though

>>408380134
>>408380823
The T-flight is a good beginner hotas, but as far as I know you can't use any physical joysticks with VTOL.

>>408381779
Yeah pretty much worked that out but I wasn't really intending to, for the price I might as well just get it anyway, though did help to get some input on it

What games are good for sniping?

>>408389835
I don't know if any particular vr shooty game is particularly good or bad for sniping. I do okay at it in pavlov ww2 modes. I feel like you need a physical stock for it to be satisfying though.

>>408389835
Radius has aim stabilization when aiming down a scope. Helps a lot when you're not actually holding anything irl. H3VR is good as well, you can set up a target hundreds of meters away and a camera to see where you hit

>>408390805
Do you know if the sniper elite vr game is any good?

>>408390951
never played it, and I can't quite tell if there's aim stabilization or not from the 30 seconds of youtube footage I looked up. If you're really into sniping, you could try looking into a physical stock. I've never used one but for something specific like sniping in a non-competitive environment it sounds like it could be fun.

>>408390951
Its a decent game to play. I had a blast playing through the story with it. Not much replayability. only problem is you have to get these star ranks in the story to unlock the next mission. so you are forced to do some things like getting specific score which is a pain in the ass at times.
>>408391714
iirc there is a virtual stock option.

bump

>>408390951
Yes, it's pretty good.

"i hope there's no bandits inside"

>>408038219
optimization for ps5 only has to take into account a single hardware configuration. AMD isn't any worse than Nvidia in terms of rasterization performance even in vr its just that they seem to have a lot of shitty driver conflicts especially with oculus on windows. I'm mostly curious about the impact of dynamic foveated rendering since all the previewers have mentioned that they didn't even notice the eye tracking which is good to hear. I also hope there are two "performance" and "resolution" options especially for games like re8 and re4 remake since I'd gladly take a loss on fidelity to play at a native 90hz rather than 60fps spacewarped to 120hz.

Recently got an Index and am going to try Cosmodread and the VR mod for Alien:Isolation.
Anyone have experience with spoops games?

>>408404269
"BANDITS could be here," he thought. "I've never been in this cave before. There could be BANDITS anywhere."

>>408408396
AMD being worse isn't only a driver issue, but a memory speed issue. Now with the XTX supposedly that's fixed, but who knows.

>>408119114
What do you mean by FR?

Can someone tell me if Walkaway Golf is worth buying?

Yeah i know there plenty of reviews but none of them ever says anything besides "it's fun with friends!!". Like that's somehow helpful at all

Is the game actually good or is it just because it's the only minigolf game on the Quest store?

>>408414808
walkabout is the one you want

>>408414808
If you mean Walkabout, I liked it even being a nofriends NEET but I've always liked minigolf a lot. Just casually putting while watching or listening to something else.

>>408415580
Would you still like it just as much if it was a pancake game? Or would you just play something like Golf With Your Friends instead?

>>408417193
nta but it's a vr game that's the whole point
they get the feel down

>>408417193
Nah, the fun is in perfecting the physical technique as much as it is getting your strategy for the hole right. Flat games skip over the physical part, at best reducing it down to clicking the power meter at the right time. That's good enough for a minigame but not something I'd pay for on it's own.

>>408301882
>Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades
The dev is a tankie but it's the best there is for gun autism. More recent VR shooters have learned the lessons from it (ITR for example has gun detail on almost the same level) but nothing compares to the selection in H3.

>Half Life Alyx
Don't think twice, just play it. It's a new half life game and you can only play it with VR, so do it.

>Into the Radius
I've put almost 100 hours into it. It's the most immersive VR game I've played and the only one that's genuinely scared me, rather than just jumpscare "shocks" you see in other vr horror. It's still an indie game and the limitations show.

>Blade and Sorcery
Extremely fun game, but a few hours and you've "seen it all". Think of it like a sandbox for stress relief. New players should turn off female enemies so they don't get the uncomfortable erection when grappling and restraining women. This isn't a joke.

>I Expect You To Die
Only played the hands-free demo from the DK2 days. It was an escape room comedy. Fun but not much replay value.

>Pavlov vs Contractors
Pavlov is a much better game, but neither are much good as bot experiences. Pavlov has zombies mode which is fun but should be played with friends.

Not here to shill

One of my friends does Bonelabs player model ports and have a Patreon but none of the people making requests (read: begging) are willing to donate

Any advice? She puts far more work into the player models than most others so i feel bad for her

>>408428940
stop doing it and get a real job because depending on randos is a recipe for disaster unless you're top 0.1% of creators

Look around you, nobody has money to spare with inflation galopping. Black Friday is going to be when it cant be denied anymore. First thing people stop spending on is freelancing artists for video games on niche platforms for games mostly played by kids with no income

"ports" (say from other games) or original stuff? if the former she's competing with other porters. She puts in more work for quality and asks for money, they do less work and ask for nothing.

Is porting to bonelabs a market where quality is highly valued? It doesn't look like it. What market can she move to instead that uses similar skills and has lots of people willing to pay?

>>408431243
Yeah, i just think it's silly why you talk to me like i'm her

>Is porting to bonelabs a market where quality is highly valued? It doesn't look like it. What market can she move to instead that uses similar skills and has lots of people willing to pay?
Anon, she doesn't live off modding. That would be silly

>>408431694
I can't know and swim is everywhere. So the way you ask the question is already silly in and on itself. Anyway, find people willing to pay in a field with competition that doesn't do it for free is the formula. Rest is shilling

>>408428940
People aren't going to just donate to a person's patreon out of good will for a job well done. She has to offer some kind of incentive, like sneak peeks, exclusives, early access, nsfw versions, etc.

Plus, the avatar market is supersaturated. Unless she can do something no one else can, being a porter isn't all that special, especially in Bonelab where all you need is a mesh and bones.

If you want my advice, focus on levels and NPCs instead. There's a severe lack of quality in those department.

>>408274072
Just played it. The physics are good and there's a lot of neat touches like the animations for pulling the charging handle of weapons being animated for different palm orientations. I also like that it has scopes that magnify the viewport so that you can aim with both eyes open and the magnified view converges, because there are a lot of games that get that wrong.
I'm not sold on the gameplay though. I don't think there's much of a meaningful difference between Vail and Contractors. You have laser beam guns, extremely low TTK, and slow movement. I could see the game becoming extremely campy. I generally really like VR shooters so I had fun in my handful of matches, but I really don't think there's going to be much depth.

>>408418426
>Into the Radius
I just started it
Is it normal that during my literally base rank 1 missions i had to fight fucking 10 PM policemans?
Why the fuck there is so many of them, considering they are also fast and have some eagle eye to see me crouching 400m from them
I know i'm being filtered, but still difficulty curve is weird for "normal" difficulty. It will get easier with base rank 2 weapons, right?

>>408418426
Contractors also has a zombie mode as well as some bot co-op stuff.

>>408450596
>10
>sec level 1
Yeah that's not normal. Only time that would happen is if you took a bunch of missions that spawn additional enemies (like the cleanup or find the black box/bracelet side missions) all in the same spot or at least around one of the places where those guys normally are. I'm pretty sure pervomay has less than 10 policemen in the entire map.

>>408451360
Eh, maybe something bugged after update
I didn't played since august
But i swear, i killed 6 PMs at one mission spot(after a lot of savescumming)+there were like 6 of them at roof of some wacky building that is not related to mission at all
I had to reroute myself just to avoid this spot

It works, but at half resolution because I only have displayport 1.2.
I find this amusing.
The fan on my micro tower does not.

>>408452009
yeah that's not normal

there's a spawner on that checkpoint but there shouldn't be more than 4 mimics patrolling around and it shouldn't be respawning more until the player is close

Do you have a mission like "retrieve a bracelet" or something on the same point? Those missions spawn extra enemies guarding the objective

>>408452009
>that firing squad
Wewlad there should only be one up there. The rift up there spawns more enemies but unless you were fucking around in the area for a long time listening to the rare lightning strike as it spawns more and somehow managed to get unlucky that every time it spawned one it was a policeman in the same spot... It seems pretty unlikely.

>>408418426
>New players should turn off female enemies so they don't get the uncomfortable erection when grappling and restraining women

Babeltech coming in clutch with the review as usual. Unfortunately ACC, the most important game, didn't run on the AMD card, because drivers. I'm starting to wonder if I should try my best and snag an XTX FE. It should be at least as good as the 4080. By the way, were there any black Friday sales on the Index? Does it go on sale ever at all? These benchmarks were done on an Index, and it obviously gets way more FPS than the G2 turd I have. I'm wondering if muh lens clarity is worth it over 90/120 hz (G2 obviously has to run at 60) and bigger FOV.

>>408515562
You're supposed to comb your cat, fatty

is the valve deckard supposed to be standalone or pcvr? Im seeing different answers evereywhere

>>408516398
both

>>408516398
Hopefully not standalone, because that will increase the price for no reason at all.

>>408516680
as in standalone plus some way to connect it to PC like the quest? fuck thats annoying, Im so tired of the industry getting held back by standalone

Aren't standalones also hotter and heavier because battery? Honestly I'm starting to think Valve aren't releasing anything anytime soon, until the tech gets much better. If you think about it the index is nearly perfect. What can they improve on it while also keeping the cost within consumer range really? The lenses and??? If it's only the lenses, that doesn't really warrant a new headset.

Anyone tried the open alpha for Breachers yet? Looks fun but I don't have a Quest so I'm curious if the mechanics feel good.

>>408516398
Who knows
Apparently the latest controller leaks suggest that they are at least lighthouse compatible. Apart from that, nobody can tell if it is a PCVR-only headset or a standalone, or even a hybrid.

I could never get into Squadrons cause it suffers from the same problems as Battlefront 2, they look and sound really cool but all the missions are just thinly veiled tutorials for the multiplayer. Plus it controls like ass.

Pavlov is fucking great I don't get the hate. I am just annoyed by all this dumb custom modes.
If you want CS in VR there is nothing else, Contractors is more like CoD.
I also got Wanderer which is great.
Still can't get into Skyrim even with mods, but flat was already bad.

My problem is that I have enough VR games now but not enough flatgames for relaxing. Elden Ring is too expensive, Cyberpunk is not worth even the keyselling site price. Sekiro for 30 bucks is still expensive.
Just remembers me how bad the last years were for flatgames, so everytime someone complains about too few VR games he should look how bad fucking flatgames have become.

Whenever I play Pavlov there's an issue with custom maps downloading, and for some reason my Index mic volume is low

still pissed I forgot my old account login and name, lost so many free games

>>408527731
I haven't played Vail's bomb mode yet. From what I gather, it turns off regenerating health? But I think that even with that, it'd still feel more like CoD (hardcore) than CS, because the recoil is basically a nonfactor.

>>408547981
No eco or any other complicating mechanic make it feel a lot like CoD hardcore to me. Though it does have a pistol round at the start of each half which I don't remember CoD having.

>>408549439
Aside from the aesthetics and the gun physics (which are pretty great), I'm not really sure what sets Vail apart from Contractors.

why tf is hl2 vr capped at 60?

>>408555295

>>408555295
Worked on my machine?

>>408516398
Because the real answer is that nobody actually knows. There's some circumstantial evidence pointing at the idea that it's going to have an ARM chip and thus probably won't be standalone (because you'd think a standalone Valve headset would be like the Deck and run regular x86 games), but there's been absolutely nothing announced and the headset itself is just speculation.

>>408555295

>>408572731
Nah, a small world asset, webm related except more polished funny enough, i don't have any webms of final version. I could probably charge more(?), but I wasn't trying to actually earn any money here, and it just felt nice and warm that someone out there feels like my thingy is worth his attention to the point where he pays for it.

why is there so much /vrg/ discussion here lately? this is /vrgg/

>>408574347
even /vrg/ hates /vrg/

>>408574347

Got the Bundle and positively surprised by Sairento. Fast gameplay I am missing with other shooters.
What should I try next?

>>408631548
Until you fall, Wizards and superhot

>>408633503
played the superhot demo. 2.5mx2.5m is nearly to small of a play space for it. The game that taught me to fear the wall

What cozy games are you playing today, anons?

no dying

>Wizard DT
really fun magic concept, but I think I am going to be filtered fast, ice bow is already a bit too much to get consistently
>Until you fall
I want to like this game and it is fun, but the movement is special. Pure hmd turning and no stick turning, either am missing something or its intended to be like this.

In both cases its great to see games that actually attempt some kind of story telling

>>408631548
Does sairento induce motion sickness very quickly? 20 minutes of boat in hl2 almost KOd me today.

>>408644382
everything in vr does if you're new

>>408643057
I wish Sony would release a new PS5 controller that allows for motion-tracking so games like that, Statik, and Astro Bot could be playable on PSVR2

>>408644382
For me, not at all, the fast paste wall running and teleporting with smooth locomotion actually works real great. Not sure if I am a reference the only thing that gives me motion sickness are inverted horizontal and vertical pitches and that weird boat in skyrim

Are there any good Steam VR groups to play games with? I like you guys, but its normally just Pavlov and VTOL and I want to play less played multiplayer VR games. If not Steam, where else can I find other VR groups?

>I want to play less played multiplayer VR games.
Just shill in the thread. Everywhere else is even deadier than here.

true. but its not just vr gaming. it is everything on every platform - like somebody shut down the bots. dead internet theory

>dead internet theory
at least some real humans (beans heh) are lurking in the thread, I know that for a fact
the real problem is lack of worthwhile content

>>408652617
ahistoric phase, everything is just a shallow copy of a copy of a copy, nothing to seek, the realisation that nothing is out there in the infinite space beside more nothing.
but it has become noteable on all platforms, less content, less interaction, no matter the segment. I wonder what really happened

>>408644786
I was asking since there is a lot of monkey bar shit in that game. I probably have ~80 or so total hours in VR and have played tons of smooth locomotion games that never made me sick. Re4 VR was perfect from beginning to end and hl2 has been perfectly fine right until the boat section. Im buying the bundle for until you fall anyway so I'll have to see if this

>>408653540
I wonder if being short has anything to do with motion sickness as well -_-

I stand at an unfortunate 5'5". Have any anons here tried giving themselves extra vert with ovr toolkit? Has it made you more motion sick or less?!?!

>>408653848
ovr advanced settings playspace move works in all steamvr games, very easy to set up a static offset or space drag. you can also try changing the game scale in steamvr's "advanced" per-application graphics settings. it essentially tells the game you have a wider/narrower ipd which scales the game up or down.

Not complaining about everything withering away and dying the heat dead, just commenting on how it manifests. Embrace it, the more shallow everything becomes the more bright shine the gems of a new era

Is a 5800X3D going to make any difference for VR games?

>>408661860
its best in slot behind basically 1 maybe 2 cpus and nothing in am4 beats it the extra cache on l3 helps a ton with % lows its a game changer it gets meme performance games in some games primarily unity ones (especially vrc) and hits way above its paygrade

>>408653848
Don't be an idiot. Motion sickness has nothing to do with height and it's more from your sense of balance not connecting with your brain aka your body sensing movement but you're not physically moving so the brain freaks out and triggers your body's nausea because it thinks you've been poisoned with toxins or some sort of parasite. If anything, short people would have less motion sickness due to their lower center of gravity

>>408669638
Anon height and balance go hand in hand. So your height may affect indirectly motion sickness via balance.

Shorter boys have shorter centers of gravity, right?

Is there a shooter that supports hip tracking so you can lean around corners and stuff?

What are the odds Varjo produce a more consumer friendly priced headset? Something around a thousand bucks. Since they know what they're doing and all other headsets are garbage, aside from the Index, but Valve wont release a new one anytime soon.

>>408698657
I guess it depends on how much money the enterprise headset market actually makes. With Valve, there's a clear mandate to make high-end enthusiast hardware for consumers. With Meta, the mandate is mass adoption. But you'll note that the business models for both are really about selling software and not hardware. The smaller headset makers seem like they might just be comfortable in their niche, because they have to make money on their headset.
I think the only hope you have for at-cost high-end hardware is Valve.

>>408699697
Then Valve if you're reading this release the Index 2 already you faggot.

Index 2 is too strong for you. You cannot handle Index 2.

>>408702191
Valve, I am an advanced VR user, I need your strongest headset. Give me the Index 2.

>>408702584
You don't know what you ask, traveler. My strongest headset would kill an RTX 4090, let alone a 3080ti.
You need to go to the seller who sells weaker headsets, because my headsets are too strong.

>>408701264
what are you going to do with it that warrants the hardware? Play 5 year old games developped for 4 generation old pc hardware?

>>408703297
Play simracing games with good FPS at 90hz on a headset that's not trash.

I don't think there's much to show in a video, but I added the basic grip pose. Need to figure out how to stop it from lagging slightly behind the hand when moving next.

>>408729356
You have to either teleport it by frame (Stupid)
or
use a Parent constraint to lock it there to that bone (Sorta ok)
or
Literally move the object underneath as a child in the hierarchy (High level)

>>408729734
I presumed it was an effect of the cube's physics, so I was considering making it weightless on pickup.

>I presumed it was an effect of the cube's physics

Got some friends coming over next week who've been asking to try out a bunch of VR games. Any suggestions on stuff to wow them?
I've already got the popular stuff like VTOL, Assetto, Alyx, Beat Saber and some VRFPS' ready. Is it worth showing them something simple like Waltz of the Wizard?

>>408729356
It could be because it's still doing the physics calculations on the rigid body component. Don't just take my word for it but disabling the rigid body while held might do it.

>>408745296
vrc or itr

>>408745296

Asseto Corsa and AMS2.

>>408761149
It's been in one-man tech demo territory for ages and a safe bet that it'll stay that way. Solo projects like this really need to learn to limit the game's scope so they don't feature creep and bite off more than they can chew.

Why the fuck would you add custom music players, spray painting your guns and other useless shit when you've barely even got enemy AI down? I wish I could actually give this kind of feedback to developers without having a dozen discord retards jump down my throat because they're so desperate for VR games.

Is Primitier worth getting on this sale?
It looks kinda like development has stalled.

I'm liking Vail a lot more after playing it a fair bit. But is it already dead? I can't find a populated CTF server. It looks like it's bigger in Europe?

>About to buy 7900 (in a couple weeks)
>Something something doesn't work wirelessly
>Something doesn't work with Q2 wired or not
I'm likely upgrading my headset regardless but how bad of an issue is this really, especially considering coming from a super 2080 and a 3080 is like the same price which I almost bought, and would the 7900 circumvent this issue for any reason

Not looking for GPU fanboys, just be straight

>>408389835
Pavlov sniper scopes are unusuable unless you're using a stock and even then it seems like they can walk out of your scope so quickly it doesn't matter. ACOG works for sniper ranges but I've been better off with sights on not-SCAR DMRs than 8x+ scopes. By the way thank Sony fangirls for no updates for over a year

>>408783884
>thank Sony fangirls for no updates
what

>>408785009
They're waiting on PSVR 2 to update literally anything. While the game hemorrhages players to the point only TTT servers are left. You know can't add existing content to PC or anything.

>>408783710
Never heard that before. I don't see why that would be the case.

Do you need the dlc for Walkabout Minigolf?

>>408783884
IMO Pavlov scopes are one of the few I find usable. The viewport from the scope is the same as your eyes so the magnified crosshair converges with your regular view, you can just aim with both eyes open and line the crosshair up.

>>408389835
Annoyingly not Sniper Elite because despite being an entire game about sniping, the scopes work terribly since it's a camera view rendered from the gun's point of aim with an ocular shadow mask.

>>408792629
It's been outright confirmed, not starting shit to start shit (except the fangirl part),

>>408795849
>mod.io
is this better or worse than steam workshop?

>>408796215
Contractors is using mod.io as modding platform for both PC and Quest
Considering it's UE4 game, it's quite impressive they managed to make cross platform modding like that

>>408792645
No, it's some extra courses, unless you specifically wanna play those in multi.

>>408729356
If you're using XR it should have an option for instantenous movement when holding objects

>>408765103
generally agree, indie devs always exaggerate in their goals, but that doesnt change that some features are really well made and other devs could take inspiration from it. In the case of this tech demo, the scoping is fantastically well made, I wish itr, contractors or pavlov had a scoping system that works so well with smoothing as the Ab Aeterno dev solution

>>408767021
It's still being worked on, just in a state of Coming Soon(tm).

Interested in SW Jedi Outcast mod

Getting filtered by SteamVR's unity plugin. The only scripts I can find are for setting variables, but I can't find where these variables are used by Unity so I don't understand how anything actually works.

>>408825941
>I think I know you

>>408831229
I'd recommend OpenXR, it's fairly easy to set up and has some neat things out of the box though you'll need to dig in and get your hands dirty if you want to expand the basic functionalities

>>408834164
I will try that. I guess the SteamVR plugin is meant to be completely opaque to the user and practically all of the code is hidden in something that isn't a .cs file.

>>408829934
How is it different from the other Jedi Outcast mod?

>>408834164

You guys probably get this a lot here but I'm hitting a dead end in getting this working.
I currently have sidequest and I can install APKs on the headset, but that's as far as I got. Virtual Desktop needs you to buy it, and Air Link needs your account BS.

Who do you think you are fighting against, fucking schizo

Just finished Alyx: Levitation.

Pretty good. Beautifull maps and set pieces, good pacing, interesting encounters. Good animation, voice acting, which sounds like original Russel and just almost perfect GMAN.
Campaign needs either more health stations in the middle part or I'm retarded and can't find them.

Starting from level 6 there is a bug, AI gets disabled randomly, to fix it you need to run Alyx with params "-console -vconsole" and when that happens you need press "~" and execute this command in console window: "ai_setenabled 1". Fix is already underway, but it seems baking Source 2 maps takes literal days.

Overall very beautifull and solid campaign, Valve hire this man, unironically.

PS. after playing Half Life 2 VR Alyx combat is sluggish and soldiers requiring 7 headshots feels weird...

This has to be from a shitty pulley setup, those things will badly twist your cables if you don't ensure enough slack. Combine that with a lazy fucker that just hangs their headset up after use because out of sight out of mind and it builds up to this abomination.

how in the fuck is htc still selling vive wands, especially for the same price as the knuckles? they were instantly mogged by the oculus rift controllers

>>408878769

Large profit margin and their only competion (Knuckles) can't consistently meet demand. HTC has the means and resources to make a Touch style lighthouse controller but they choose not to, either that suggests that they can make more money this way, they're too inflexible to repurpose tech from the other projects or they're simply out of touch.

Kinda confused on how adjusting graphical settings works in general with VR. I use an older HTC Vive (the original from what 2017 was it? whatever it was) and naturally uses steam VR. In steam VR itself it allows me to adjust the resolution per eye and I currently have it set at 200% and it says "2128x2364"

I don't get it. 4K resolution is 3840x2160. Am I running my headset at somewhere between 2k to 4k with that setting? how is that even a thing the headset is old as shit and can't support such resoultuion, hell I could make those numbers way higher with 300, 400, 500% as well. How the hell does this even work?

>How the hell does this even work?

>>408882907
yea, htc wands COULD be useful, but for the same price as the fucking knuckles, for controllers that came out 6 years ago? thats absurd, I wouldnt be complaining if they were like $120 for a pair

>>408883358
Decided to go for the "i was only pretending to be retarded" route, huh

>>408883432
yeah i agree, a wand should be 40~60
their design for being a wand controller is really outdated, too, exact same design from the original Vive release

maybe they expect people to start making their own IR sensor wands with their own designs for VR
desu this is probably what needs to happen, just people homebrewing their own wands

a better version of knuckles can also be homebrewed but you would have to justify the expense for accurate finger tracking
and then dealing with constantly recallibrating whatever invention you come up with is another issue

>>408883571

>>408879763
tbf my cat took a bite of my vive's facemask and it looks similar

>>408883256
But is there no upper limit to it? like what if I just push it to "12k" right now?

>>408883053
The same way you can tell your GPU to render your desktop at 5x what your monitor is able to display. The GPU will render it then downscale/downsample it to your maximum panel resolution. VR is slightly different because it always renders at a slightly higher resolution than the display to account for some distortion but all you need to know is that 100% in SteamVR already does this.

You go above 100% when you have spare GPU power for reduced jaggies and slighty better image clarity. Some games I barely notice a difference while others become noticably less blurry.

>>408885614
>You go above 100% when you have spare GPU power
how much "spare" are we talking here? my CPU is cutting edge but my GPU is a year old. Does CPU come into play at all for super samplng?

>>408880082
vive wands objectively suck total ass, index is also lighthouse base and utterly destroys them
the vive wands have obscene internal design flaws that make apple's planned obsolescence look genius by comparison, they will completely destroy themselves with only a moderate amount of normal use

>>408885521
I don't think steamvr interface lets you, but hardcoded limit by the driver on nvidia is 32k.
>my CPU is cutting edge but my GPU is a year old.
100% GPU bound. In general CPU doesn't really matter for vr. You could easily run shit like $50 ryzen 3100 and not notice any difference.
Might change in the future, if devs start designing the engines properly.

>>408886437
>In general CPU doesn't really matter for vr.
Tell that to unity jank shit like vr chat. I imagine lot so games still need a competent CPU to not stutter

>>408886437
>>408885718
>>408885614
How much could I get away with with a 3070 GPU? I currently have SS set to 200%. I got shit tons of RAM to compensate for the 8GB VRAM as well

>>408886548
Games stutter because of shit ram in 99% of the cases (or regardless of CPU, e.g. flawed design).

>>408885718
It actually does ever so slightly. Conventional wisdom normally says no but the faster the CPU can prepare a frame the longer the GPU has to deliver it in time for a consistent framerate.

>>408845894
It's trainable for sure.

>>408886008
there are simply a lot of factors to discuss when it comes to optimizing the designs, knuckles are not excluded
you can even track a controller without stations if you have it hardwired to your computer and properly designed it
this discussion goes beyond the simple and typical VR ideas that tend to consist of "i want to play with strangers online" or "i want to shoot gun"
going any further is probably a discussion for /g/

>>408886879
i mean, the fact that their primary input method (the touchpad) will kill itself because of a single rubber pad collapsing under normal use is definitely something that can and should be discussed here, because its a major failing of the design and a good reason to never pay money for a vive wand
the htc headsets are actually completely fine, because valve designed them as a prototype to the index, but I would strongly recommend you run them with index controllers regardless of what you plan on doing

>>408886635
>I currently have SS set to 200%
You think people fucking remember the resolution ancient shit like vive?
Don't use relative numbers.
But anyway, 3070 should be enough for vive. It manages to run much higher res q2 at like 70-80% of native.

>>408887309
200% for me is
"2128x2364"

should I push it higher?

>playing Blade and Sorcery
>run and smash to enemy with my sharp metal stick pointed to their general direction or crush their windpipes with a rusty knife from behind
I play this game expecting to do choreographed swordplay like I see in those HEMA videos but I guess this works too

I wish Blood Trail was a good game

>>408887016
again, /g/
but you could turn the float input of the touchpad into an integer input with some very simple mods
now this goes into deeper ideas of, why are you using a single digit (thumb) to input multiple variables by way of a circular disk, which is a terrible design to begin with
why are there even grip buttons when a single button could have been put in an easily accessible place for any other digit (index, middle, ring, pinky) to press when 'grip' is needed

and the knuckles do grip even worse, it's a float detection based on grip strength, it is actually one area where the vive wand is superior (but not even really as i have just explained, a single button should have been added somewhere on the wand's skeleton instead)

these designs give us a basic idea of where to start, namely that wands and finger tracking are excellent and will probably be here to stay in VR
but the philosophy behind their design is a really dated idea that people need some janky variation of 'natural' input in order to effectively and enjoyably use VR or whatever the gimmick was

which is not true
homebrewing controllers is probably the future, with individuals ending up designing highly personalized controllers rather than this bizarre standardized mess we have right now

>>408887593
Depends on the game. Check framegraphs.
You might be able to push it a bit higher.

>again, /g/
yeah, the post is stupid enough to belong on /g/
> float input of the touchpad into an integer input with some very simple mods
it's not float/integer. It's analog and digital. Everything you describing is 100% software, distinction is irrelevant.
>homebrewing controllers is probably the future, with individuals ending up designing highly personalized controllers rather than this bizarre standardized mess we have right now
lmao. Q2 controller style is the baseline and THE standard for the next 5 years+ (touchpad from QP controllers might be incorporated, the hardware is there but currently unused).
Knuckles are dead. Wands are double dead.

>>408888997
and your keyboard + mouse is not dead

reminder that dof reality has a 2-axis motion sim base for under a grand with a version that moves your controls with the seat for 1500 on sale

How is HTC still even in the consumer market? Their past however-many HMDs have all been failures. Just how many more times will they be playing this song and dance before they go under? Genuinely curious, it's fascinating to me that they're still teasing new products like it's going to be the next bleeding-edge thing.

no it's completely normal

what kind of controller/flight stick thing should someone get for a vr flight sim?

There was one a while ago, but it was much less advanced without real classes or anything.

>>408918779
i'd like to see some webms of that
in theory arena shooters should work pretty well in VR, but it still depends on the amount of polish the devs can do for it to be actually enjoyable

I didn't count, but you can kill combines way faster in HL2 VR than in Alyx.

Alyx feels more like Resident Evil than half life really.

>>408921402
looks decent
hope this isn't quest garbage only

>>408927546
Where the fuck is the VKB Gladiator the same price as the Thrustmaster T16000M? It's like twice the price for me in the UK.

>>408924097
Got T16000m as well, it's a functional joystick and it has left hand mode if you care. Had one before, long time ago, in rift dk2 times, but trigger started acting up, so I just bought another. I got a feeling there are many, many better options if you're right-handed, but t16000m is definitely competent enough.

oh cool, can't wait to play the new cool VR games on it such as uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I wanted to like Zenith and on PC it looks nice, plays great etc. but god damn why does this game needs to be about flying through golden rings like superman 64? What a fucking dumb idea for a MMO.
The idea of VR MMO is great but i fear it will take another 5-10 years to get a good one.

punjibros...
not like this...

>>408939038
>RGB gamer lighting

>>408939706
just play ff14 vr mod

>>408939706
I really like the gliding but it was added too late into development. The map is filled with gaps that you weren't mean to see from the ground and the developer's attempts to add gliding relevant content just shoehorned random floating islands around. It makes the zones in Zenith give me a feeling that they were modelled and populated by two seperate teams, similar to when a game overuses asset store models.
Hopefully others learn from this and build their VRMMO with traversal and exploration mechanics from the start, ideally with less of a rigid attempt to copy flat theme park MMOs as Zenith did.

>>408939038
would've been worth the price if it had an oled display and/or eye tracking. It begs the question, if a consumer pcvr headset were to release with eye tracking support, will it be implemented in the way of a standard open platform similar to open xr to ensure maximum compatibility with steam vr?

>>408936225
I wish it was that cheap over here.
>>408938143
It's amazing how much they fucked up Elite Dangerous, Odyssey is a pile of shit and they gave up on VR and consoles.
>>408939724
Is this pajeet pavlov?

>>408946498
openxr has extensions for eye tracking already, varjo headsets use them

Looks like this game is coming along well. Still plenty of bugs and for the life of me I cannot get the proper 18 degree 1911 grip angle right on the Index no matter how I adjust. I'm happy how it is right now as a Vietnam War-themed tactical shooter and I can't wait for more updates.

image getting excited about run-of-the-mill "low poly" (more like low talent) unity asset flip
not sure if it's the dev shilling his garbage or someone with unironical shit taste

>being excited for a game with a design philosophy that specifically targets your niche genre... BAD

what design philosophy lmao
it's just low effort unity trash

>>408953584
The previous demos didn't inspire even the slightest confidence in me and I even went in generously tolerant of the poly art style.

>>408846926
I just got one and made a meta account with a throwaway email. AirLink works great on my shit modem, very impressed.
The only bullshit thing was they want to connect to your phone once during device setup, it only is for the first time as far as I know but other than that it's been solid.

>>408939038
Really considering this for a first headset, maybe unless Deckard is a better deal.
All the cheap standalone headsets feel really dirty, subsidizing by being tied to another ecosystem that's not a standardized android/linux openxr mobile OS, or just because an on-board chip that goes mostly unused feels like a waste and an added expense.

>>408956856
It's extremely overpriced.
fresnel, 4k screen, untested inside out tracking.
manufacturing cost would be around $200 and they dare to charge 550 for it
add pancake + eye tracking and the price would somewhat make sense, would still be expensive though, but charging 550 for what is essentially 3 year old hardware is just too much

>>408954096
Low poly isn't the problem at all here, it's the lack of textures.

>>408953584
It looks like trash. Not just the hideous polygon graphics, style, and effects, but the floating text really finishes it off.
