Does anyone have any pics of Coffika

vr is reclining...

>>504914552 (Cross-thread)
Damn I hate that I messed up the final event, it was a close fight for the points! Looking forward for the next championship, it was really fun.

>>505309918
W-why?

>>505310272
no, vr is stagnating or you could say its returning to form. vr was never a normalfag niche/hobby

>>505309149
what do i get

>>505310980
you get to look at the results of 2 years of hard work
thats all really

>>505310932
I wish normies would get the fuck out of my space, unironically

>>505311373
this, sooo this. please.
cheers brother

>>505311453
I can't tell if you are sarcastic or not, but thanks for the feeling of someone here agreeing with me.

Kill normies, behead normies

etc
etc

Did the previous thread just die of it's own? VR is so fucking over. Clearly we need some VR gachaslop to salvage this.

>>505311649
no im being genuine, i hate normalfags that cant even do the simplest of research. if you cant do even that then have fun troubleshooting shit whenever your headset or trackers start acting fucky

>>505311751
if only we had feet frontline 2 for VR

>>505311941
Gooning in VR would be so much better than to jpges for the gachaniggers. But I suspect they are so brain damaged they can't into 3D.

how do you pirate vr games on pc? like actually getting them to run in vr after? i tried to download beat saber, but it won't start. and if i try to start it through steam with the VR setting, it says "no licenses"

>>505312619
Whatever steam cracked .exe that came with it should launch it in VR, you might want to try opening steamvr through real steam and then running the steam cracked exe.

>>505310497

Special day for Sign Language Meet today! We're learning and then recording for the christmas carol video.
Any skill level is welcome as always. Hope to see you there!

What's up with No Man's Sky on Steam VR?
On a 4070 I get like 5 fps on the lowest settings and maybe 20something fps on lowest settings with DLSS.
Does the shit performance come from something specific or is it just shit in general?

EU Assetto Corsa: European Racing club, season 12!
Race 86

19:00 UTC 20:00 CET, Monday 16th of December 2024.

The last race of this season! LMP2, one of the fastest racing cars class in existence. In BRAZIL. Get ready for some fast endurance racing (it won't take too long).

1 hour practice
12 minutes qualifiers
12 laps race

After that some driving around in Scotland, the drive of survivors.

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 and mod manager: https://assettocorsa.club/content-manager.html To install mods: just drag and drop zip files from mega onto the Content Manager windows and click on the hamburger menu on top right. Highly recommend installing stable custom shader patch and 7-zip plugin in Content manager.

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

I can't recomend enough Crew Chief
https://thecrewchief.org/
He's a helpfull AI fellow in the pits who'll provide you information about your car, your opponents, yell at you or try to encourage you. And most importantly, he will spot for you, in case you have a car in you blind spot.

UI radar are immersion breaking and basically cheating, but this guy will tell you verbally if someone is there on your right. Download, install, select Asseto Corsa in game list, press "Start application" and it should work!

>>505325960
unplug all of your usb devices. im serious. (and restart the game)

>>505331853
All of them? Can't do that since my Bluetooth adapter is usb.

>>505332630
leave as little devices plugged in as possible.

i have no fucking clue why, but performance tanks the more usb devices are connected. lol. and they havent fixed it for years.

>>505332794
Ok, will try. Thanks.

>>505327583
we won

Been thinking about dipping into VR a bit recently.
Do I do the responsible thing and wait for Index 2, or give in and get something budget as a holdover and to familiarize myself?
Quest 3S is $400 here for 128GB, honestly a bit too expensive for something I'm hoping will get replaced and given to my brother as soon as possible.

>>505334495
quest 3s is shit, buy quest 3, pico 4 or psvr2

Is there are Beatsaber playlist that has just Mainstream songs. I dont want to play these crazy expert++ japanese remix songs only.

Had a good Saturday night.

Ccccccccatan at 9:30pm cest, in like an hour.

>>505334836
>Quest 3 is $600
>Pico 4 was $250 for 128GB, but on clearance sale, so it's sold out
Guess I'm just waiting for Valve to make the big move.

>>505335105
youll be waiting until 2026 then

>>505335150
I'm fine with that, I'll just get the Quest 3 for $250 at a clearance sale in the meantime, surely.
Still would prefer to avoid the online account bullshit.

>>505335345
then buy a psvr2, you dont need a sony account.

>>505335431
>$450, on sale from $700
I'll just spend the $1500 on the Index sequel.
Was probably worth noting I'm on Linux, but thanks anyway.

>>505342716
Boggles my mind you try this every time without fail concurrently as trash goon instances. Literally nothing happens Saturday around this hour why not try there, you could even tard wrangle easier after karaoke or whatever

>>505344265
not him but its a good timeslot for a decent portion of us who attend after the ASL meet since we're already in VR and its a somewhat seamless transition

>>505344265
Some of us come after sign meet, but today sign meet was pretty involved and a lot of us needed to get off vr afterwards this week

He fights for your freedom.

Can anyone help me fix an issue connecting my Quest 2 to the Meta app?
I can't find anything on google and the help people haven't gotten back to me yet.

Basically 2 issues:
1. The app detects my headset but no "5 digit code" pops up in the headset
2. There's an old 1st gen rift still on my profile and I can't get rid of it. When I look anywhere but the app, there's no rift and there IS a quest 2 but it still won't connect to mine

This is preventing me from doing a lot of shit and I'll be really grateful

>>505354363
If it works via usb-c cable but not via airlink then it could be some dumb thing like your pc not being pingable or maybe ipv6 not enabled on the network interface.

>>505354957
Nah I mean the phone app, the one I need to use to turn on developer mode or whatever it was I was doing this for. I kind of lost track after 2 days of yelling at a headset

>>505355408
Turn on bluetooth and location and try pairing again

>>505344265
That is based and correct decision

>>505346830
Fuck it I'll get the steam version if it means I can play with those without standalone vr.

>>505359136
The time of double fishining lobby is upon us.

>>505359136

>>505355573
It acted differently that time, the location setting made progress. Thanks a bunch anon I'll tinker more and see if that was the missing piece

>>505359136
Is it just the same as the standalone version?

Holy fuck the completed version of Blade and Sorcery Nomad is so god damn fun. I haven't played it since it was first released as a simple arena wave fighter.

The magic system is FUN. The boss I fought was FUN. Time to get back into VR

Here's a recent Christmas-themed one I got of him recently.

>>505372747
Another one

Is it worth upgrading from a Quest 2 to a 3S?

>>505373489
2 to 3S, not really
2 to 3, definitely

>>505373489
quest 3s is a quest 2 with a better processor, same shitty screens and lenses

the dance in the Universal slot machine booth is finally fixed, the only place with some booba (compared to the summer world everything is censored).
They know the parareal corporate worlds degrade every vket and even reference it in the starship world where they show the Vket6 Core world at the end and mention it was destroyed and forgotten (the best corporate world ever) and they hint it may return or something.
At least the dojin booths are very impressive and technologically advanced, but very few quality pantyshots, maybe 1 or 2 per world.

>>505372747
>>505372992
Cuteffika

>>505375141
Doujin booths are the best. Has full storylines in it and mini-games in-between booth sets
I'll link a recording of the Isekai Marche dragon fight later.

I'll probably create a DnD boss battle fight soon. I've been slowly building up all the necessary udon stuff to make it happen over the past few yeas of events. Chicken egghunt boss but we use weapons and having an economy quest system should be fun.

>>505340063

odds lay down instead and see if I feel better in an hour

>>505388040
ibuprofen can mess your tummy more anon

>>505388040
you ever just look at an avatar and then feel an immense letdown because the hand tracking on it doesn't work properly?

as a bonus look at this totally abandoned pool world I found

>>505395906
Yeah hands are hard even for 3d modelers not just 2D artists it seems lol.

Did you find an avatar that resonates with you?

How do I meet VRC anons outside of events?

>>505395906
compression chan!

>>505397430
You friend anons during events.
Then when you see them online outside of events you join on them.

>>505395906
you ever look at a vrc screenshot and feel immense letdown because they didn't post their avatar full body

>>505396797
I've found a dozen or so I like sorta but I think until I can try them with FBT I won't really find "the one". Every single avatar has something wrong with it:

>200 MB 4k textures
>Quest 2 optimized
>mammoth hands
>high heels
>no hand tracking or index-style half-finger tracking
>very long arms or other weird proportions that don't match my IRL body and aren't easily fixed
>furry hands or some other weird feature that would need serious model edits to replace/fix

I understand now what everyone uses the same 3 or 4 bases with different hairs and clothes

Not my fault majority here rather go to /trash/ then do an activity in VRC thats not fucking or drinking.
It's a nice end of the week compared to doing it saturday, wich is more high energy and can be spent on non VRC VR games.

I'd like to see friends and world hop but it's EU hours so everyone is watching movies or forever orange status

>>505422174
So pretty much no one from this group you're saying

>>505422389
I'm awake right now and willing to play. Issue is I am busy till Dec 15

>>505422389
Plenty of people from this group at least claim that they would get on if others did. Including you.
I'd tell you to be the change you want to see but I know the above is a lie. Anyone who says they want to get on if people weren't on orange or in movies really mean that they'll only get on if "anchors" or the popular people are online.

>>505423241
Just host a /vrlg/ sex meet, majority will drop whatever they are doing to get on and coom.
Maybe a sexplore event, fuck in different worlds 30-40 people joining easily.

We will have a Bible study event for Christmas.

Can I host a sex meet if I don't want to have sex

>>505423713
>sexplore
I think an activity like this would have divided attentions.

>>505423932
Sure, most people who turn up to one don't sex anyway it's just the anything goes environment they're after.

Breachers just got new map and balance update, are anons interested in playing on Wednesday or Thursday evening?

Hi, Monday Chess + Mahjong will be at 21:00CET/20:00UTC (~4h30 from now) as usual
Start times have been pushed back by 30min compared to summer time, because of the daylight savings the usual time was too late for our russian friends
As usual we will with 1h of chess followed by mahjong at 22:00CET/21:00UTC (~5h30 from now)

>>505437719
i will treat her with reverence anon, bless you

anons, why is 9/10 of this thread some anime-related trash?
is there another vr thread where anons actually play vr games, share webms, discuss hardware and such?
monitoring this thread while waiting for my headset to be delivered, and desu you are not inspiring me one bit

>>505447559
Because that's 90% of VR playtime globally. If you wanna talk about VR games just talk about VR games.
No joke, check the player counts for VR games compared to VRC.

>>505447559
There's game lobby hosted every day, anon. As a matter of fact, Real VR Fishing in 2 hours.

>>505447559
>anons, why is 9/10 of this thread some anime-related trash?

>>505448553
put yo titties on them

>>505448056
Does the PCVR version have a higher player count or is it still 4?

>>505449221
NTA Still 4, and no cross platform.

>>505447665
you are actually right anon!
its like 100x times in player numbers
top kek, but also wtf?!
>>505448056
post webms please when you are done

>>505449660
Simple fact is that majority of headsets are Quests and majority of players of most games are on standalone since most VR games are made for Quest first or are so simple that running them on PC has no benefits over standalone. Also most games that have both PC and Quest version will give access to both for people that buy it on Zucc store further disincentivising buying shit on Steam if you use Quest.
That leaves PCVR as exclusively VRC and sims platform and since most sims use their own launcher and are usually both flat and VR they don't even register as VR games on Steam leaving only VRC.

>>505447559
The thread is what we make it. I can only speak for myself but I'm burned out on hardware discussion or speculation, it's nearly pointless and if it does lead somewhere it's usually to disappointment. Arguing about compression or deckard 'leaks' isn't fun when you've done it a thousand times before.

The biggest problem with the thread is the severe lack of new blood. Games do get played but when it's the same people playing the same games year on year the interest in discussing them or posting webms dies down. This also introduces the risk that people take their interest to smaller off-board communities, reducing VR content further. Trying to create discussion or making webms is often a thankless task and when it's the same people every week it feels like preaching to the choir.

Despite some big VR releases the thread is going to see more VRChat activity around this time of year due to christmas events and people having more free time this month. For me and I assume many others there have also been a lot of recent flat games eating into our gamer time which reduces the desire to play VR games. It could always be worse though, if we didn't have the /trash/ thread as containment then /vrg/ would have devolved into a hub for discord drama and shitposting like you see in other generals.

>>505447665
>Because that's 90% of VR playtime globally
PCVR playtime*
Quest dominates VR and it's all games.

>>505452587
Lack of drama and shit posting is why this general is boring and fails to attract new blood.
4chan threads need a balance of both on-topic posts and entertaining shitposting to be worthwhile. This thread is far too serious especially given the death of actual VR news.

>>505456218
I disagree completely; shitposting just creates a circlejerk where it's super active but it's just the same 10 or so people raging at each other.

Anon hesitated. Guess what? Now you lose.
Should have released your end to end with steps and BOM bro, everyone who said it was "unsafe" or "untested" getting blown the fuck out.

Now VRG will lose to Korea.

>>505456412
It's for the best
generally because for a generic robot arm those things are expensive if you want them to be strong enough to actually jack you off. Most aren't strong enough to harm you even then.

Egosoft caved in to some triplemonitors linuxfags and implemented native Opentrack support for X4, which now means there's better headtracking for the game but they still force in some smoothing value so it's not instantly responsive.
Reshade got a big update recently and can now properly use the depth buffer, which can then be used into Superdepth3D. It's tricky to get the stereo3d to work properly but it still sells the effect and seeing the true size of those space stations is mind boggling.
And with using VD Headlock feature, it feels like you're almost there... One day maybe

>>505457024
Seems painful

>>505457640
space simmers are the most oppressed group on earth that is true

Where do you guys torrent your VR porn and what videos/games do you recommend? I don't usually torrent porn so I have no idea where to go

>>505458497
VR porn is mediocre, most people graduate to ERPing in VRC.

>>505452587
>it's all games.
Every time I look at the quest store it's like looking at the google play store. AI generated thumbnail icons with some generic title. Even when I do look at the store page it's just some unity/unreal prefab assets slapped together. Nothing looks appealing so why the fuck would I care about the quest's "games"? I have one and the only quest game I've played is asgard's wrath 2. Is there anything the quest has that isn't slop (ie: around the same quality as asgards wrath) and also not on pcvr?

>>505458559
Well let me be a baby boy for a bit. I'll graduate when I'm good and gay

>>505458497
ask on vrlg in trash, but two obscure recommendations you probably won't receive due to low popularity would be Houkago Rinkan Chuudoku and Ikunogaman VR. Other than that, obvious koikatsu and stuff. Recorded VR porn is meh due to the 3dof nature of a recording.

nyaa.si

>>505452418
That makes good sense anon!
>Also most games that have both PC and Quest version will give access to both for people that buy it on Zucc store
So if i buy, lets say Contractors, directly on quest - i will be able to install/run a separate version from my PC as well?

>>505452587
> lack of new bloo
its a shame... im planning to try a shitload of games during holidays though - there must be more anons like me

>>505458607
Batman, Dungeons of Eternity, Metacity Patrol, Shattered, Phantom Covert Ops, Zero Caliber 2
That's just from top of my head, also remember the old Oculus exlusives like Stormlands and Lone Echo.

both lone echos are on rift

>>505459145
Contractors is cross buy, yes, so you get both Quest and Rift version. Only downside is that you have to use either Link or VD to play it since SteamLink won't run it.

>>505456412
that looks like it will rip your cock clean off

>>505459062
Thanks friends, I'll try /t/ then /trash/. I'll check out those games too. I appreciate you.

how do you get the courage to talk to people on vrchat
the idea of going up to someone and trying to start a conversation sounds scary

>>505459623
you'll have to just do it, There isn't a magic pill

>>505459406
ah, nice to know anon!
also, do you know if i can count on better visuals when running it from PC, or is it literally the same as running it directly from quest?

>>505459359
They should both work with ReVive so I don't really consider them exclusive.

>>505459883
Since I tried both - PC version has higher res textures and AO but that really only applies to vanilla game. Contractors is 90% modded lobbies and there it's completely random and up to the mod maker, most mods have literally 0 differences between PC and Quest because it's just direct rip of some ancient CoD map or weapons.

>>505456412
This is like shaken baby syndrome but for your dick.

>>505459792
how do I just do it?
what do I start talking about? how do I get the conversation going? how do I continue the conversation? should I focus more on talking about myself or the other person? how do I know what to say?

>how do I just do it?
Yo [name], how's it going? It's that shrimple.
>what do I start talking about?
This is why small talk exists. Autists think it's dumb and pointless, but the point is to start talking about something everyone can relate to that aren't too personal. Good small talk topics in VRC are things like recent game updates, popular vidya/anime, or complimenting someone on their model.
>how do I get the conversation going? how do I continue the conversation?
Ask questions about what they're talking about, nothing that can just be answered with "Yes" or "No". Things like "Why" or "How". It shows that you're listening and genuinely interested in what they're saying.
>should I focus more on talking about myself or the other person?
If the person keeps talking based on your questions, let them keep talking. Otherwise interject with your own relevant stories if there's a gap in the conversation.
>how do I know what to say?
Practice. Start with 1-2 people, maybe during a game or other group activity to give you something to talk about.
And before someone calls me yuki, I'm just another sperg who brute forced his way into social skills

>>505462651

>>505462835
I can tell you right now that pretending to be an anime character in social scenarios has never worked for anyone, ever.

>>505459623
Come join us in other activities first that aren't just chatting like games, watchalongs or structured vrchat activities like sign language and pypy. Gives an in and something to talk about.

>>505462973
it still has to be better than my current skills, it would be much easier to think "what would X say" instead of "what should I say"

You're gonna need to practice if you want to get better. My social skills improved massively since I started vrc. You can complement the practice with some videos on youtube about conversations and other social stuff.

>>505462835
>>505463214
I can't recommend doing that, but if you're going to do it then before you get started please make sure to get an outside evaluation on the anime character you plan to larp as. Because if you're as socially deficient as you claim to be then the anime character you think is cool and likable is probably not.

Personally, reading "How to Win Friends and Influence People" helped me a lot.
Basically ask people questions about themselves, not to just ask questions but because you actually want to get to know them.

Also alcohol, lots of alcohol.

ok why are people sperging on yuki this time? of course he is an autist. we all are, or else we wouldn't be here...

>>505466295
don't make yourself into a lolcow if you don't want to have funny picture compilations made of you by some autist.
it's a 4chan tale as old as time.

>>505466295
>>505462651
honestly I've heard more insane takes and truly schizo beliefs from other anons in /vrg/. yuki just openly posts about his in the thread and obsessively responds to every (You) so it's more visible.

>majority died at the 1 minute mark because they stood in the fire
Just like my mmos.

>>505465475
I was under the impression that people are lazy until i tried setting up my own avatar on a booth base
>70k tris limit for anything from good to very poor
>booth body alone, without hair and clothes, is 50k+ already
>can only apply mild decimation or else it shits up the model in motion
>found a nice hair module that's also quite popular
>20+ separate physbone components, all with different physics configurations, also extra invisible bones and physbone components because creator didn't bother making two separate versions for two separate hair types
>clothes also go into 10k+ tri easily
>removed useless bones, physbones, some of the smaller strands of hair, tried decimating body/clothes with little success
>still 90k+ tris

It's not that popular booth makers decide to prioritize aesthetics over performance, it feels more like they actively laugh at performance limits and actively work to make modules as uselessly heavy as possible. I'm kinda stubborn and I'm still planning to make one decimated version with hand-removed geometry that will be rated as good, but holy shit, I cannot blame anyone for not wanting to do that. Popular booth components are not unoptimized, they're actively optimized towards the worst performance possible, it feels as if they're trying to make a point.

Can someone link me a free excellent or good avatar I can put my ss gift onto?

>>505465260
i think... i think we lost em'

>>505465260
>biological children with
as opposed to?

>>505467392
Most people just go very poor, yeah. I'm one of the few people who makes sure almost all of my avatars are good.
I do this not because I am noble, but because I know I'll never be a fallback avatar if I'm good.

>>505467392
Just keep your sanity checked by one-click pressing generate imposter. Now it truly is no longer your problem. Beside that all you need to do is scout out texture files with thry's avatar tools and set them to 2k or below and as long as you aim for a range below 200mb you'r set, lower the better. I usually try to aim for 150 but lower helps without sacrificing quality too much. It's just not worth the effort draggin your nutsack across broken glass when in the end there's no doubt people will have stingy safety settings and see you as (hopefully you did your one-click imposter) or a robot or default avatar.

>>505468310
He means he doesn't want to adopt or be with any woman or can't or doesn't want to have children. It's a really weird thing to put on the first line of your bio though.

imagine going up to someone and opening with:
>Hey girl, I am interested in impregnating a woman. Would you like to try chatting to see if you'd be eligible for that interaction?

>>505468814

I don't know if I've become better at everything since 2018 or everyone else has become worse. I think the turning point was when I modelled something by myself for the first time but the only reaction I got from everyone was "why would you bother when you can just download something else instead?". It was only a few months before that I doubted I'd be able to upload anything at all and saw those with models already in game as skilled beyond my comprehension. Since then I've become almost exclusively the person explaining things to others, whereas before I was almost always the one who wondered how people could even learn such things. Even when I find someone with advanced skills or knowledge, they seem to just know a dogmatic, failsafe method with no true understanding. Maybe I am as delusional now as I was before. Who knew this vertex data would lead to such things.

hey!!

total oomfie love. total friend appreciation. roundhouse hug a friend into an embrace.

I really like this continued and clearly targeted attacks on everyone who runs events in /vrg/ over the years to the point that we've got minimal event runners left. I expect that when yuki eventually gets tired of getting shit on he will stop like the half a dozen other hosts have and whoever has been spamming thread will probably move on to whatever is left like Krial or I guess Duz maybe. I doubt Scoop/Yuru/Ryder/ rest of the random people that previously used to be directly involved in events aren't going to resume and we've largely run out of people willing to host. I doubt somestupidguy will be doing another concert and if they are I doubt we'll be invited. Yuki is catastrophically autistic but to anyone half paying attention everyone else who hosted events has been largely run off or gotten tired of doing things when they get shit on mostly by people who run no events and congregate in (((discords))) all day. I don't know if it's haloniggers spamming like usual or perhaps jelly or one of the other half a dozen dramafags who most of us could probably guess, but whoever it may be, people have been clearly burning out and losing interest in hosting high effort events to the point that even comparing 2021/2022/2023 to 2024 is embarrassing and it's not hard to guess why. I was going to say that if you continue to tolerate this behavior from your friends you'll see the consequences eventually but given the last year if you haven't seen them already you're already too far gone.

Do not bully yuki or there will be consequences he is a harmless and gentle autist

>>505463230
I listened to this stupid video at 2.5x speed. It is dumb and gay overall, but he does at least have a few interesting perspectives. One is that the Burning Man organizers evaluated vrchat to do some sort of virtual version and decided that while vrchat had the technical ability, the "culture" of vrchat was incompatible. I agree. Even if I can't strictly define the culture/"vibe" of vrchat or burning man, they are definitely different. He makes the same point about the culture of crypto-associated ""metaverses""; while technically they're all pretty much doing the same thing, the vibe/culture when cryptobros and grifters are running the show is very different and detrimental.

The other interesting point to me was that while webXR and associated stuff like WASM is theoretically "metaverse done right", the things that you practically want to do with a metaverse chafe with the "web standards community" processes that define and change webXR. As in: if you wanted to add something like haptic vest support to webXR, it'd be a 2 year process to maybe put a WG draft together and twiddle your thumbs until a chrome engineer says no. In a way this is the same "culture mismatch" but webshitters vs video game devs.

His conclusion with this is he's going to make his own engine but with the culture/vibe of some obscure scifi series (plus the usual SAO/RP1/tron normie melange). It'll have its own scripting environment and blackjack and hookers, and be open source. A noble effort, but like just every other utopian decentralized p2p project these days, the real punchline is "join the discord for updates :^)". It's over.

>>505495451
I don't think it's targeted. You'll struggle to find anything on this site that isn't receiving constant criticism.

speaking of good events, who was it that was playing with the tech to stream users between instances for concert maps? that tech would be invaluable to actually making rando gladiators happen someday

>>505495451
I miss the music events

>>505495869
Maybe you could argue it's not targeted but I feel like it's pretty obvious that a handful of people have been shitting on event organizers for years now and it's clearly not just jelly because he can't hold his spaghetti together long enough to not get banned or be obvious about it.

>>505495869
Not that anon but it's pretty clear hosts are shat on for every little personal flaw they have as a person from niggers who haven't put an ounce of effort into this community. Eventually all that's left is going to be the bitter fags fighting and doxxing each other because why the fuck would anyone go through the effort of coordinating an event if only 2 people thank you for hundreds of hours of stress and 200 are shitting on you.

>>505488814

you guys put event hosts on a pedestal way too much, it's no surprise event hosts get criticized.

>>505495451

He did a great set for Dreadfest, Grommet’s brain child event. I super love their DJing ability on top of their already stellar Visual light show autism.

>>505495654
>"join the discord for updates :^)".

>>505495451
this kind of thing makes me really sad that I didn't get into VR earlier. The golden years of VR are behind us, despite the tech being better than ever with more games + better games than ever before. I look at videos from years ago about people making lasting friendships on VRC and being bettered for it, and then I think of my own VRC experience... superficial and lonely. The event hosts work hard and get shit on by a community that doesn't want events or games. Public worlds are full of mutes and children. What place is there today for people like us? It's all in the past now.

>>505495451
>tfw host events but don't get targeted
I think this is too much all or nothing though. It's true that they get shit on more than they deserve, but some criticisms are valid. You can't just ignore everything negative and say it's evil shitposters

>>505496190
>>505496136
I have done things for /vrg/ and experienced the 99.9% negative feedback no matter what you do, but my name hasn't been mentioned in the thread for a long time. I think it is just people defaulting to the "everything is shit" mentality of this site.

>>505496583
I've been to nearly every single event in the last several years barring a very small handful that I was out of town for and I don't think a single one I can think of off the top of my head that had something worth shitting on the host for in thread (there were some with jank within the reason of expectation or that could have been coordinate/run better but who gives a fuck this is a trivial inconvenience) with the exception of the valid bitching about instance size capping which is more a technical limitation than anything because too much of modern /vrg/ is unwilling to optimize their avatars meaningfully or switch without the host demanding it.

>>505496085
Hello hello that was me. Orenjii and steve smith was helping me get it working for Dreadfest. It worked but we never needed the 2nd instance as it did not materialize fully.

>>505496582
There are still plenty of good times to be had if you're willing to put in the time to find them both here and elsewhere. We live in a small bubble and if you can dodge the hellscape of publics, /vrg/ is not that unique all things considered if you can manage to not scream nigger 15 times per second upon entering an instance. That said there are still good events here and plenty of good people worth talking to, you just have to spend a bit to identify the bitter/shit flingers/dramafags and avoid them and your experience will be excellent generally.

>>505495451
>Yuru
I still do events, I still plan to do events, and if SoS stopped doing events I would step up and do some of the major events again but the truth is I'm content to let them do a lot of the major events because they're much better quality and higher effort than the ones I do. I'm not a good team player and I can't match yuki's enthusiasm and energy.
I will probably do a Christmas Santa's lap event on the approximately either the 14/15th or 21/22nd and the usual Christmas meet on Christmas eve.

I don't care if people say mean things about me , the main reason I've slowed down with events over the years is that the bar for them is much much much much higher than it was in 2018/2019.

>>505497174
theres a lot thats still needed before it can become any more of an idea but keep that shit in your back pocket, would be good for keeping everyones frame rates up and the randos out of our actual instance

>>505497764
the bar for me is still "themed drinking" being acceptable and im tired of pretending its not.

>>505497968
Outside of a few vocal faggots that do nothing this is the bar for nearly everyone I'd imagine.

>>505498153
i usually dont even do the themes myself because more often than not i've historically ive never been able to make it to the instance, or when i can im just creatively bankrupt
the last one i did was the fumo and i didn't even get to attend that one :<

i just love seeing anons do cool shit even if its just throwing on something silly for st patricks day or valentines or maids etc etc

>>505459623

Cool advice bro.

So does /vrg/ want to dance this weekend or nah?I'm not sure if I want to break the stalemate of no events in /vrg/ but Yuki's but I could go either way, I'd grab that Friday night as I always do

>>505495451
I still try to host the occasional event. I still do pavlov and occasionally poker in vrc. I do agree with you that there seems to be a concerted effort to discredit people who host events by some shitposters though. As to what their goal is, I can't guess. If it's to rule after what's left, they can keep their shithole and rot in it.

>>505503168
>As to what their goal is, I can't guess
It really is as simple as running other peoples fun is their dopamine fix.

>>505503168
Do you really think it's more likely that it's the concentrated effort of sadistic shitposters with nothing better to do than honest complaints? Anons complain about everything and not all of the complaints are deserved but I really don't like this sentiment of dismissing all criticisms. Nobody ever listens even to helpful criticisms posted in the thread, and event hosts do in fact, make mistakes sometimes.

Anyways, I started Last Clockwinder lately, and it's an extremely satisfying puzzle game!

>>505506062
Not every person who posts something against someone organizing something is an evil shitposter with an agenda. Im just saying it looks like to me that there could be an organized effort like that. I remember when Id host lobbies in vrc, here and in game people would decry me for putting down a portal for a /vrg/ instance for 4chan people. Even after I sobered up some theyd still do it. If their complaints of me killing every white name were true they'd have a reason but I havent done that in ages.

>>505502921
More events is always good mate. Thanks for taking the time to organize and host for everyone else anon

>>505495451
I like doing events but the race war was definitely a LOT of effort, can't wait for the redux but I don't want to wear it out and make it lose it's charm
booth ban fridays here and there when theres a lull in events is great and easy as well
i do wanna make more events but I also don't wanna be a predominant leaderfag
i'm also i was and should get back to it soon.. am making a doubleroom for FBF and my secret santa project
i hope to come up with a new fun event idea for next year in addition to new race war map, but for the time being its just holiday relax time
i'd rather come up with and host a small number of really good events than oversaturate the calendar with low effort events

you can start by telling yuki not to auto invite you into mod/helper/staff position for every event he makes a discord group for. but you seem to enjoy that attention a lot, so I don't think that will happen.

>>505509804
if you wanna volunteer to help out and be staff you can always DM him yourself, more help is always welcome and I'll gladly take a backseat if someone more capable and competent wants to take the reins

>>505447559
there are not many vr games that are interesting for more than a week. people play those games and then play vrchat until another game is launched
Therefore this is the sfw vrchat thread that also discusses vr games if they're a good flavor of the month game

Basically this

>>505509804
I almost always broadcast here for any anon who wants to help and take charge. I am glad and thankful for every talented and motivated anons we have here who take the mantle of responsibility. Without everyone helping out, no event can be made more than the sum of their parts.

Still a bit too busy to update it. I’ll try to update it after the event sprint of the ber months to Jan and Feb. i’m glad you find value in it anon, makes me motivated to update it with the distilled knowledge from my more socially savy friends.

>>505510872
It helped me a lot. The introspection necessary to realize everyone has charts in their head but they do it by instinct is massive. Practice enough times and the chart vanishes as it becomes ingrained and 2nd nature. It’s all just a decision tree, nothing more nothing less. Normies don’t need it as it’s naturally ingrained. But if you have any slight levels of autism then the chart will prove useful

perhaps the big club worlds being more strict and generic will open up smaller more niche communities

>>505511425
>the chart will prove useful
the only thing that chart will do is telegraphing you that any conversation with you is not worth having.
stop lying to anons who just wanna casually have small talk. you do this every time with people asking this and every time people appear in instances who obviously use your troll chart. and every single time they get made fun of until they leave and never been seen again.

>>505511425
The whole point of talking to people is to build rapport, share thoughts, and enjoy the exchange, not to treat it like a mission control operation. Following a chart like this kills the natural flow. It's not a math problem where you can plug in values and solve for “good interaction.”
Plus, overthinking every step just adds unnecessary pressure. Instead of being present in the moment, you’re too busy deciding whether to analyze their emotions or bring up future goals. Who does that?
Talking to people is about listening, reacting naturally, and going with the flow. If you need a graph to tell you how to say “hi” maybe the problem isn’t your conversation skills. It’s your obsession with overcomplicating things. It's not the rocket science you constantly make it out to be.

>>505511790
What's your actionable advice to anons who has social anxiety not knowing what to do? And them maybe having a systematic way of thinking rather than someone having a full grasp of their emotions?

You have to accept that not everyone feels or behaves like you. The option is there, I've only told the truth from my lived experience

>>505512151
>is about listening, reacting naturally, and going with the flow.
Agreed. That's what the chart specifically describes. Specially the left chunk of the image >>505463717

I agree with what you're saying here. Using a flow chart is really strange behavior when having a conversation. However I can see how someone might be tempted if they have heavy social anxiety. After all if they don't get out of their comfort zone they'll never socially be in the zone.

>>505514226
>What's your actionable advice to anons who has social anxiety not knowing what to do?
self-medicate with weed or alcohol until it destroys your life like a "normal" person
no actually, just try your best anyway and accept that not every interaction will be positive and that most people you like or are attracted to won't like you and aren't attracted to you

am planning on buying a 5700X3D this christmas to help with VR cpu bottlenecks, any recommendations for a good AMD card to go with it? Ideally something more on the budget side, and doesn't need to have all the VRAM known to man despite that being a big factor for VR
currently using a Ryzen 5500 and a 1660 Super

>>505514558
It's like riding a bike or driving a car. The first few times you do it it requires a lot of your focus. But the more you are familiar with the systems and ways on how to ride the bike/car it starts to become second nature.

This is the same with conversations. If you need wheelies like the flowchart to understand and balance yourself on the bike then I say use it until you don't need it anymore as you get familiarized with the flow of conversation the more you do it.

>>505495451
as long as people come to mahjong I'll still be hosting it desu

>>505515548
>just try your best anyway
The issue of socially anxious and autistic anons is not that they lack the desire and drive to try and socialize. They really want to socialize that's why some ask here or even sadpost about it.

The issue is that they do not know where or how to start. Giving someone some detailed instructions on how to man the frying station and how to flip a burger goes a long way for them to eventually be a good cook.
You can't just tell someone to create a Beef Wellington without giving them the steps how to do it. They will be paralyzed in place

Not all recipe needs to be exact, they just need to point in the right direction and they will eventually get it.
Encouragement, while good, is sometimes not enough to fully help someone socialize.
Some people are good with guiding people in a conversation. That's a good way for them to learn too. Talking with people who take the time to talk with someone like them.

I kinda think a 3080 would be a better choice at that point since you should be able to find one on the lower end of that if you're patient.
If you're deadset on AMD, 6800xt should be less than the 3080 on average, and if you're fine with spending up to $500 you can find new 7800xt cards around that.

If the people you asked only knew dogmatic failsafe methods with no true understanding then you didn't ask people with actual advanced skills or knowledge. That said, if you're confusing that with them calling you a retard for doing things in an ass-backwards way then just stop being stupid and trust their experience.

>>505519037
You don't need to download any cringe tools. Start VRC, switch into an avatar you DON'T want to rip. Clear your cache and restart VRC. Then wait a minute and switch into the vatar you want to rip. It will be the most recent item in your cache.

How is Pico 4 Ultra?
I found one for the same price as Quest 3, and I'm wondering which to get for PCVR.

For the record I would rather chinks spy on me than Zucc.

>>505409423
PSVR2 > Quest 3 > Pico 4 > Quest 3s

>>505566812
tired this once but I was too retarded to get it working

>>505568587
replace pico 4 with quest 3

>>505568089
basically almost exactly the same as Pico 4. AV1 doesn't add that much, new wifi standard makes the connection just slightly more stable. Processing power is wasted on PCVR anyway. Pico 4 ultra is the best standalone VRChat device though, most ram, most performance, standalone no hassle FBT.


>>505568089
Pico 4 requires less 3rd party add-ons than Quest 3. The strap is comfy and balanced out of the box, might want to swap face pad to a thinner one though. You get super cheap decent FBT with Pico 4. And Pico Connect is way better than airlink and just works, no point in buying virtual desktop.

>>505571212
oh yea, and pico 4 has a very good microphone unlike Quest pro or 3

>>505568089
and if you dont mind wires and hate blocky stereoincorrect artifacts, and latency which is dependant on scene complexity PSVR2 is a good idea, but then you need your own audio solution...

>>505572006
it comes with basic earbuds!

>>505572828
that's fine then. I played for a long time with OG Vive earbuds, until the strap was falling apart, then I bought DAS (the best strap in the whole existance of VR)

>>505573812
>(the best strap in the whole existance of VR)
eh i prefer index's strap for long term sessions
off-ear audio is better for me since the on-ears of the DAS caused ear fatigue when worn for a really long time

>>505517027
I have anxiety but deep down I know how to socialize- I just can't do it comfortably. A flowchart doesn't help me personally. Maybe I could see it helping someone on the spectrum though, or someone who needs to externalize thinking to keep them from panicking/shutting down in the moment. I generally do better at socializing when it's contextualized to an MMORPG or other video game, or when I am tired, sick, or otherwise impaired. People using alcohol for this, as has been done for thousands of years, makes total sense, but I personally don't drink.

Most of my time in VRC has been solo exploration of worlds under the "new" tab because they nearly always have 0 players in the public instances.

as a west coast anon the scheduled games are all at inconvenient times. VRC game worlds intimidate me because I don't know how to play them, not sure if they can be practiced solo. I don't want to join a public game world and make a fool of myself or sandbag a team. MMORPGs used to be a good platform for this kind of socialization at the fringes, but people take them so serious and sweaty now. Mistakes or new players are seen as rude or intentional malice rather than a teachable moment or just what happens. People don't simply play the game anymore. They imitate the professional esports players.

>>505572006
i have some quest headsets, how do i do the latency test or w/e to add to this graph?

I've made a vrchat world which changes color from green to red when your right hand is moving. You need to calibrate the tracking jitter when controller is not moving though, and be careful to not overextend the avatars hand, as Udon gets avatar hand position, not the controller itself.
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_8104befd-5540-424f-ba04-f1b39957d05c

There is noise and noiseless cube versions, as it actually important for video decoder/encoder times. Noisy video is harder to encode.

I've used my phone in slow mo mode (120 FPS), to film HMD lenses and VR controller being flicked. I've repeated flicks between 10 and 20 times, and counted frames from visible controller movement to HMD lenses turning red and averaged the delays in those flicks.

Handy ffmpeg command to extract frames:
ffmpeg -i .\VID20241207134007.mp4 -q:v 2 vivepro2_120_%4d.jpg

...so wait is it required to also have my monitor and controller in the frame as well?

>>505579939
It doesn't emit brain melting radiation and have 15 minutes of latency, so it's LE BAD

gehehhehhhehehe...... blrlbbrlblrlrbrrrrr EHEEEEEEEEE uuhhhhgghhhh...

>>505580157
monitor is optional it's useful to confirm the FPS of the slow-mo and if the game was running at proper frame-rate.

But controller and HMD lens is crucial. How else do you plan to measure controller motion to game reaction time? (motion to photon delay)

>>505579490
>DOUBLE to TRIPLE the latency
oh no no no wifi sisters...

>>505580603
Linux open sores stack is fucked.

But 80 ms in worst case scenario of 130 megabits (max on my shitty router) and noise being only 80 ms is actually not that bad. Only double of wired headsets. But can explain, why people become less accurate in shooter games over WiFi.

I really wonder how is it with good wifi, noisy cube, 300+ megabits Quest 3 virtual desktop. Can't be worse than 80 ms right?

>>505576591
As someone who mostly plays rhythm games I'm glad that a stuck to a wire. I really wish someone would resurrect wigig.

>>505580879
80ms is still double or more compared to 90hz or 144hz wired hmds
you feel that shit

>>505580940
Remember it's not just Wifi latency (which is actually REALLY LOW) it's also encoding/decoding latency. Which is actually a major bottleneck since wifi is actually really fast.

If you're downloading mods, then your custom mod directory setting got reset.

Check your
>AppData\Local\Pavlov\Saved\Config\Windows\GameUserSettings.ini

and set your
>ModDirectory=

do NOT use spaces in the path.

But most shooters and rhytm games are also on standalone and pretty much the same on all platforms so it really boils down to racing. And in racing games compression is bigger factor than latency.

Contractors runs at stable 72 at 2300px per eye but it will definitely kill the battery faster because of the overclock.

yes, there is also a mod to tie your steam id to a skin. There is a Bocchi skin on the mod.io.

Any skin you make will have to be public on mod.io, so uploading booths might be an issue.

leave the animetranni out of pavlov

anon we are getting some first Quest Pro results. I hoped that virtual desktop and good wifi (wifi 6E router (ASUS RT-AXE7800)) would make it better, but it's not that good. On par or worse than Pico Connect over my shitty wifi

>>505600628
is lower better?

Outer Wilds with VR MOD

>>505601006
guess it depends on whether you want to see your game now or later

>>505601006
yes, it's litterally how much milliseconds pass from you moving your hand to your hand moving in game.

Higher the motion to photon latency, harder is to da precise motions, like aiming.

Funny, that VD "full" latency is underestimated by 40 ms, exactly by the time wired headsets need to render your movements, I guess it shows only networking related latency.

>>505601384
lmao

>>505600628
so router cope is placebo effect?

>>505600628
according to applel, they have a motion to photon of just 12 ms, that would be 8x faster than the quest

>>505565916
Who said anything about training wheels? There are incredibly stupid and inefficient ways to do plenty of things in Blender that are not worth the time you will waste trying to make them work. If you are doing things in that way you're an idiot and deserve to suffer if you refuse to take the advice of people who tell you to do it a different way.

If you're actually interested in learning Blender there are a few very knowledgeable people in the community you can ask, myself included. That said, while I can't speak for others who may be more charitable, I'm not going to spoonfeed you basic information you can easily find with an internet search, so be sure to show some initiative and critical thinking skills as a prerequisite before you ask one of them. Nobody likes their time being wasted.

>>505601384
they make charts like this
put the fastest at the bottom
but won't write "lower is better"

>>505601750
well thats the AVP not doing streaming, im sure the quest pro (and 3 whenever someone tests one) would have much lower latency on standalone vs pcvr streaming

>>505602045
Pico 4 standalone is shown in the pic at ~50ms

>>505601568
Well, the bitrate on Quest Pro h264 is higher, unachievable with my shitty router, but that also increases encoder/decoder time, transmission time will be compensated by faster wifi.
The testing is ongoing, gonna have more results.

>>505602104
which is much lower than 81-111ms

>>505601994
>may b hihger latency gud?

>>505602162
>transmission time will be compensated by faster wifi.
yea but in videos comparing wifi 6e routers to wifi 7 (only applicable for Pico 4 Ultra anyway) the difference was a mere 2ms

I really wish I had a camera to test this

Is that Batman game actually really good or is it just being overhyped?

:: NA Alt Exploration | (See schedule below) ::
What is this?
The alternate bi-weekly world exploration at early NA hours! We quickly go from world to world taking in the sights, and hanging out with friends in interesting new locations.

When?
Tuesdays at 7PM - 10PM EST

10 minutes before exploration a link to both the starting instance and the user to join off of will be provided. If you join later, please add the user.

>>505603945
overhyped slop like every quest exclusive release

>>505603945
The new Quest 3 exclusive one? It's shit. Combat is so disappointing and hand-holdey, the levels are just corridors, and you can just feel how much it was cut down to fit on Quest. If you can find it somehow dirt cheap like 50%+ off then it's vaguely entertaining but damn sure not worth $50

>>505604257

>>505603945
It is good because it brings in a lot of flat game mechanics and adapts them to VR without it being bothersome. Not worth buying a Quest 3 just for that game but if you've already got one then yeah it's worth playing.

Speaking of Quest 3 exclusives, are there any decent deals on a 3S right now? More than the free batman and referral thing. If I can cut a little more off, in addition to those freebies, I'll upgrade.

the last three big games of Batman, Behemoth and Metro are all boring walk down the corridor games

>>505605117
skill issue

>>505605117
Nothing wrong with linear games, but we do need some new big open games. They should buy some older well loved IPs and basically do whatever the fan modders are doing.

>>505605770
You misunderstand, it's not just linear, it's almost literally all just corridors.

>>505606007
Open space make facebrick hot pls anderstand :(

>>505603945
Depends entirely if you liked previous Bamham games. If yes it's great fun, if you're indiferent or hate them it won't change your mind, if you're "everything must be accurate physics simulation" autist you'll hate it.

>>505603945
It’s a pretty good BamAHam game that happens to be VR. I like a lot of decisions made about how to handle combat in a much more traditional video game style of canned animations that are triggered by you throwing a punch instead of some janky physics based stuff, and I think more devs should learn from it. Graphics aren’t bad, but it’s obviously a Quest game which means that background textures are pretty low quality, but they did put enough work into the main characters that when they’re in your face talking, they look good.

>>505606661
Has nothing to do with Arkham games, the problem for me is that there's no flexibility at all, especially for the combat. It's all ***YOU MUST PUNCH IN EXACTLY THIS WAY OR IT WILL BE MAGICALLY BLOCKED REGARDLESS OF THE ENEMY POSITION OR ACTION*** so many games have done this far better already. Plus you get neat tools like the grapple gun but you only ever use it to go up specific prescribed ledges and such, it all just feels hollow and cut down from what could have been a great VR Batman game all in the name of catering to normies and fitting it on a shitty mobile chipset power envelope so they could pack it in with the Quest 3S. Disappointing.

>>505606925
>and I think more devs should learn from it.
Learn to run far, far away from it maybe.

>>505604901
Into Black is great, Shattered is cool and free with the Quest+ sub (which you get free trial of with new HMD), Starship Troopers is incredibly fun in coop, Dungeons of Eternity is the staple physics dungeon coop, Real VR Fishing is now also on Steam but Quest version is few updates ahead still, Metacity Patrol is the closest we have to Blade Runner VR, Medieval Dynasty is alright if you liked the flat version, Q3A from Team Beef is pretty much perfect VR port, Airspace Defender is a meme but fun if you can get it discounted, Mecha Force just released and it's alright Armored Core clone, Lies Beneath if you like spoopy shooters, InDeath is still actively updated on Quest, Zero Calibers are fun CoD clones, Retronika is cool FLCL inspired racer, Powerwash Simulator if you're into that, Ghost Signal and Homeworld are bit buggy but fun when shit actually works, the Gundam FMV game/OVA is excellent if you're fan.

>>505606007
That's like, half of all games, flat or VR, the other half being open world sandbox survival crafting meme.

>>505607715
I actually meant deals on the headset itself but that's a really helpful list, so thank you anyway.

I'm glad I took a break from VR for a few years. Coming back to see an actually decent library and getting to try a good amount with the "Please come back oh god please" free Quest+ they gave me has been great. Now I need to upgrade though so I can play half of them.

>>505607997
Oh, there's the Amazon deal where they give you 75 bucks giftcard, that's about it. Maybe there'll be deals by end of week, Christmas are drawing closer.

>>505608263
I think that ended, I was trying to code google said provided it and no dice.
I'll wait till at least boxing day then. Here's hoping, thanks anon.

>>505588686
Thank you all for coming!
As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a booth model.

See those who can make it next week for a more overtly christmas-themed movie.

>>505608592
You could look for 128GB Quest 3 (not S) in local stores, they got their price cut before 3S release.

I think the main disconnect between VR users is those that value the controls more and those that value the headset more. The former want games that can't be done on a mouse and keyboard, the latter want visually impressive games that fundamentally require limiting how the devices are used. Alyx, for example, caters very heavily towards the latter group, whereas Boneworks, to the former. The headset users really value good looking interaction and get frustrated when the game allows something to behave incorrectly. Whereas the controller users would rather the game provides more freedom and consider the "jank" an acceptable cost. Games have trended heavily towards 'looking right' over the past few decades so naturally the headset users outnumber the controller users as they are the majority of the entire video games market. The hypothetical game that headset users are waiting for, that provides the expected level of fidelity but also complexity, may simply be impossible due to the nature of the medium.

>>505607452
Ah yes. What I really want is more physics based jankfests, after all B&S and Bonelab melee is the peak of gameplay.

>>505609394
a booth model with one eye a different colour than the other

>>505609871

>>505609640
Oh ya? I'll keep my eye out then thanks. Though I doubt they'd be cheaper than the 3S. It's not so much the cost:upgrade ratio as it is just purely the cost.

>>505607715
Any decently designed linear game doesn't *feel* linear. The path you take is linear but the games do a great job of covering up the fact that there aren't really any other ways to go. Arkham Shadow does not do this at all. There's never a time where you feel like the game opens up to you or that there's other places you could go, nothing around you is used as an exposition for world-building, etc. Look at Half-Life Alyx, or hell even Half-Life 2. Both linear games but there are plenty of moments when you truly feel like there's a whole world to explore, especially right a the start. In Half-Life 2 when you exit the train station and look across the courtyard of City 17 and see the citadel looming in the distance, with multiple side-streets and blockades, you can only go one way but you really feel like you've been released into this world and can do anything. Likewise in Alyx where there are plenty of times when you see vistas from rooftops overlooking the city and even though there's only one way to go, it *feels* like you can go anywhere. In Arkham Shadow everything, everywhere feels like a tiny little stage set carefully crafted to look vaguely like Arkham City but you never once feel like you're *in* Arkham City.

I demand a headset with 5000x5000 pixel on each eye at constant 240 fps for $500. I will not play VR until this is on sale.

>>505610514
Asylum was linear as fuck and Shadow is very much trying to copy the Asylum formula.

>>505609785
For me, the interesting part of Bonelab multiplayer is trying something out and finding the physics engine is consistent enough for it to have the intended outcome; an emergent, rather than scripted, behaviour.

>>505609785
GORN is still the best VR melee game ever made and nobody will convince me otherwise.

>>505612306
Where do you think you are? Also, I'm more of a schizoid. The autists don't tend to like me very much.

Attention leashcucks and compressionlets!

After a few rounds of testing of pico, wired, quest HMDs, on different computers with many collaborators (I'm thankfull to all of you!) we got some interesting results and conclusions.

>at useable-ish megabits (150) you get at least 80 ms delay which is double of wired
>at good megabits (400) you get 110 ms delay which is crazy high...
>at 50 megabits which looks like ass you are near vive pro wireless delay, but still slower 57-70 ms (depending on scene complexity)
>wired headsets seem to hang on about 40 ms on 90 Hz and 35-36 ms on 120-144 Hz
>faster wifi is a meme it just allows more bitrate, but delay suffers badly
>virtual desktop is a meme, pico connect is as good
>virtual desktop "total delay" seems to be missing 40 ms

TAVR update coming on 19th, new mission, shotguns and some new rifles. We'll go tacticool when it's out.
