what would you rather us do? i like those kind of events. they're really sweet

>>516728339 (OP)
In two more weeks, the /vrg/ soccer team will face off against /xivg/ (Final Fantasy 14 General) in the Grown Ass Fucking Men Bowl (Friday, March 21st @ 19:00 UTC/3:00pm EST)

To capitulate on the Deckard's release, we will then be going up against /mjg/ (Mahjong General) the following week (Friday, March 28th @ 20:20 UTC/4:20pm EST)

>>516730846
I'd kill for a ancient greek event where we all run around in togas, have philosophical and mathematical discussions, gay sex and then get killed by the persians

>>516729239
He is too powerful...
Is it even possible to win?

>>516731090
Will be sticking on the /vrg/ V. /xivg/ game live, show up 15 minutes before. Will probably use Resonite Home as it's comfy and has a good video player. What's the livestream link again with chat on screen?

>>516729416

We need a plan...
To get rid of him, once and for all.
He can't keep getting away with it.

What is his name?

>>516731571
The chat is in cytube, it's not part of the Twitch stream. You could record your screen and restream it using VRCDN or use this https://hyperbeam.com/ . Hyperbeam only works in a few worlds tho (Benuldy included).

>>516731571
>What's the livestream link again with chat on screen?
I believe in order to get the chat on screen in-game you would need to use Hyperbeam, put the Hyperbeam link in the videoplayer and then go to the stream link in Hyperbeam

any instances up?

>>516732481
>Hyperbeam only works in a few worlds tho
I think it should work in any world that uses a ProTV videoplayer

>>516732198
>he doesn't know

Give up. You can't get rid of me.
I run VRG. I AM VRG. AND I ALWAYS WIN

how fast can we run this joke into the ground

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Would US timezone be interested in some Bonelab on friday? My sleep cycle is all kinds of fucked recently, there's a good chance i'll be very much alive through the night, and then I could host something around 9pm EST. No promises though, will update tomorrow evening if anyone's interested.

also, obviously boners on saturday as always

Hello, anon!
UNFF will be hosted at 21:00 CET tomorrow. That's in 27 hours and 25 minutes!
I wasn't around to host last weekend but my understanding was that the Invite Only idea wasn't well received so I'll put it on pause this Friday and do normal friends+

>>516752131
The theme looks good! Looks like a mix of Shangi-La and Babylon.

>>516752131
There are more walkabout mini golf DLCs than there are stars in the universe

>>516755484
Atlantas as well.

>>516755416
what is the difference between invite only and friends+

>>516755416
>the Invite Only idea wasn't well received
It was well received with some nonsensical complaints from rando lovers.

>>516754928
Shut up and pay your taxes :^)

>>516755878
randos can easily join on friends+ instances. Invite only requires you to actually read the thread and open the link.

>>516754928
All my homies hate sqquare

>>516756029
So why did people in here piss and shit and cry when all they have to do is click the link?

>>516755864
Oh yeah you're right, I can totally see it.

>>516756135
That is the question, isn't it. There was no cohesive argument against it.

Hi, since today is the first Thursday of the month, it's time for the "Monthly Board Game".
As usual, the session will be at 22:30CET/21:30UTC (~2h50 from now)
(You) will have to choose between:
> Fillit
A modern abstract strategy game centered around position/path control. Move your pawn and place your chips to win
(Rules: https://whatsericplaying.com/2020/03/02/fillit/, World: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_0344f043-fc37-49b5-b424-03b7911e56ba)
> Backgammon
One of the oldest board game in the world. A 1v1 strategy game with some randomness to it.
(Rules: https://www.bkgm.com/rules.html, World: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_a17543a2-04ed-4864-aa98-5ac4977ff543)
> HighSpeedChess
What if chess becomes an RTS? Another VRChat original game, it has a demo video in world link
(rules: in-game; world: https://vrchat.com/home/world/wrld_865496e7-9b52-439d-9068-2fcc6598250f/info)

Actual fucking bait and switch, holy shit. Hope they fail.

>>516756187
Atlantis is a greek story that had lots of greek statues and stuff everywhere, of course it'd have overlap with MOUNT OLYMPUS

>>516756135
Some retard(s) couldn't search through the thread to find the link

>>516756072

>>516756292
>>516756467
sounds to me that we have a lot of people joining events but don't browse the thread, you might even say ... they are randos!

>>516756401
...
I might be retarded

>>516756587
The funny thing is the people who'd hate it the most aren't here to argue against it.

>>516756686
not true! i don't want to have to check the thread before i get on vr every single time to know where my friends are.

>>516748624
>Inseye claims it will refund the $1 deposit of any backer who reaches out via email.
Oh fuck right off, people have to actually email them to get their money back after they pulled a bait-and-switch?
No one's going to bother going through the effort for a dollar refund, so this scummy company will probably keep most of the cash from reservations, even if it's just a tiny amount.

>>516756686
>i dont want to look at the thread
>but i want to participate in the thread meetups
sounds to me like you dont want to be part of the group

>>516757162
wrong, i do want to look at the thread just not in vr.

>>516756135
thread schizos NEED to be able to see where everyone is at all times using vrchat website or vrcx. Invite instances also prevent that, you don't know the list of people in instance unless you join.

I'm not slipping your slipping!
Anyway another late announcement for /DinnerCircle/ (on Part 43) for this Saturday the 8th at 7pm ET. This time its Breakfast for Dinner, a classic mix up to change things up from the norm. Whether its vodka and a cigarette, coffee and a cigarette, or just sunshine and a cigarette. But remember, you can bring anything, you'll just be judged. This is hosted in vrc. Join info/link will be posted just before its starts. /DinnerCircle/ does NOT endorse the use of cigarettes

>>516757338
overlay?

>>516738082
NA bonelab...

>>516755416
I liked invite only stuff, made it feel a bit more homey to me. But it also scared off one of my friends who's browsing but felt like joining would mean making a point, so I don't really mind if it stops happening.

>>516759537
>but felt like joining would mean making a point
>filters out drama queens and retards
What's not to like?

>>516759681
Rather, it filtered out a guy who did not want to be perceived as a part of some new elitism drama. Incorrect perception in my opinion, but I can see why he saw it this way.

>>516759835
So it did what we wanted it to, nice.

>>516759537
>>516759835
Sounds like the system is working if it filtered your rando friend (who definitely browses of course, as you had to tell us).

>>516759081
>No ciggies
how about vapes

>>516759835
>using the thread is elitist
Tell your bro to get his head checked. The randos are not some pitiful refugees that are lost without us. They will be fine. And if they're not fine and have a meltie then they are proving themselves to be the ticking time bombs we're trying to avoid.

>>516756876
Seems to be automatic

>>516760448
Good.

>>516766361

>>516766361
is it working for them? the rando repelling?

>>516766361
true lmao

>>516766361
I hope /vrlg/ are enjoying their Invite Only instances but I'd prefer non-/trash/ Invite Only instances for /vrg/.
Thanks for the suggestion though, anon.

>>516766361

>>516766621

I always knew I was cut from finer cloth. My use of this thread has elevated my status amongst gay nerds. is this how the Jews feel every day?

>>516756339

>>516772645

>>516766621
no

>>516738082
I'd be down to play some before Pavlov if there's enough interest for you to bother.

>>516738082
>>516777938
nta but my main worry on setting this up is... I failed setting it up before lol

Reminder that there's NA Walkabout Mini Golf in a little over 4 and a half hours (10PM ET), and we'll be playing the new course. Hope to see you there.

>>516778084
The setup is a bit more streamlined than it used to be, and I'm pretty sure that's the usual EU host offering to host for NA, so it should be pretty smooth.
You can just go ahead and do the stuff that's in the OP guide now and you'll be mostly ready.

>>516777938
What time is NA pavlov, roughly?

>>516778084
I can set up a server ~30min before game starts officially, and then your task is to set it up and successfully join the sever. If you can join it, it'll work all the way through. I'd be monitoring the thread and helping with debugging to the best of my abilities.

>>516778768
>What time is NA pavlov, roughly?
Usually starts at 11PM ET

>>516779065
In that case, my idea of 9PM ET sounds just about right, I hope

>>516779360

>>516779360

>>516761026

There is a trend lately where some people are very up their own ass about using the thread, yes.

>>516782987
reddit narwhal bacon at midnight amiright chat?

I don't understand why anyone feels the need to "identity" as /vrg/ if they don't use the thread. I guess it's the belief that they are the true /vrg/ that diverged from the now corrupt thread or something. The reality is that they get more personal benefit from exclusive discord servers, but won't admit this and have to attribute blame to the thread to avoid appearing as hypocrites.

>>516785393
I don't understand why so many people are obsessed with "identity"

>>516783157
has it started yet? im gonna join

>>516785393
I am not one of those people but I kinda get it. 4chan is a very different beast than it once was, so it's not hard to imagine a lot of people feel disillusioned with the state of modern 4chan, while still feeling like they are a part of it. I get nostalgic for a lot of old 4chan stuff but I stick around very few parts of it anymore because of this.

>>516785393
I will explain it to you simply as someone who likes /vrg/.
I wish to be with people who wish to be in the same place or group as I am. People who are actually here in the thread with me exchanging funny or cringe posts with each other.
Anons I can confidently call friends

>>516786175
That argument would make sense if this place had changed for the worse in the last few years. People who like to pretend it has do so with rose-tinted nostalgia glasses utterly disconnected from reality.

>>516786403
Anon I've been on 4chan almost since its inception, and visited most frequently in 2008, almost 20 years ago. Thats the 4chan I'm referring to. Your newfag is showing.

>I've been here for 20+ years unable to move on
this is less of an argument than you think

>>516786883
By "this place" I mean the thread, and the events hosted by the people here.

>>516786403
>this place hasn't changed for the worse in the last few years

>>516786965
>you're here too
so is yours

>zoomers be like: oh man i miss the good old days of 4chan in 2021

>>516787043
Most people who are /vrg/ were 4chan since long before /vrg/ existed, and I see very few people who exclusively associate themselves to /vrg/ and not the rest of 4chan as a whole. Because they feel like 4chan isn't the community they knew anymore they are driven to more curated communities like Discord where they can feel a little more at home, and then when people in the thread piss and moan about nobody using the thread or "discord niggers" that just drives them away even harder.

tl;dr: honestly who fucking cares, if the people are good that's what matters, stop bitching about who does or doesn't shitpost here.

>>516788452
>they are driven to more curated communities like Discord
>honestly who fucking cares
I care. I care for those who actually wish to be 4chan and continually use 4chan instead of discord.

A place/location/group can only exist if the people who frequent it are there. /vrg/ will cease to exist if people post in discord instead. The same is true for 4chan as a whole.

This truth is why I am very fond of anons who continue to post here with me. This is why I care

>>516788452
Not being able to handle being called a nigger doesn't sound very 4chan to me.

>>516789071
A lot of people use 4chan but not this thread.

>>516789071
If you cared then instead of bitching at the people on Discord you'd bitch at the people schizoposting and vagueposting about stupid drama shit that causes them to not want to be here in the first place.

>>516789402
Ofcourse there are, I’m not quite sure where you are going with your statement.
I just am more fond and friendly with anons who frequent this thread we call home.
I like /vrg/
I like 4channers
I like randos
It’s just a matter of priority

>>516789928
I focus on the good people of this thread. Bitching is not my style. I’ve always used my limited energy on having fun with people who are here. You have my word anon. No bitching about discord unless discord. Only loving and preferring frens who use the thread. Not since the incident 4 years ago anyways

>>516791242
well that's good, now if other people did the same we'd probably see a lot more thread and a lot less Discord

Granted there'd still be a good bit of Discord just because organizing things tends to be a little easier there, sort of like #4chan on rizon back in the day

What VR games allow me to perform gun kata?

>>516792135
superhot?

>>516792135
Superhot, Pistol Whip

>>516792135
Superhot probably

>>516792135
If you find any let me know because I've wanted this for so long. Closest I know of is SuperHot

>>516791687
My opinion on that is always about how we use the tool of discord.

Being able to differentiate between discord usage that kills the thread vs compliments the thread.
A discord that tries to replace the function of the thread as our home and public square where every anon drinks from as a communal watering hole is cancer.
Using discord to message among close friends or organizing is fine imo.

The thread’s function needs to be maintained and not competed against if it is to survive.

>>516792235
>>516792245
>>516792275
>>516792361
I guess I'll give Superhot a try for now

>>516792135
Pavlov. On the downside, you have to know gun kata, otherwise results may appear underwhelming

>>516792396
>the thread as our home and public square where every anon drinks from as a communal watering hole
Well the thing you have to remember about that is this was never the thread in this community. That's in VR. We go to VR for our public square. Thread is off-hours discussion largely, or finding/sharing new games and gauging interest in getting groups together.

>>516792730
Not quite. VR is too limited and can’t function as a public square where anyone can hear everyone’s voice.
An instance is limited to 80 and when it was jan 2018 having 24 people in an instance is certain lag. Functionally instance max was 30 back in the days

The thread is amazing in this because even at 800+ anons strong lurkers can catchup with people if they so choose to lurk or post.

The community of /vrg/ quite literally started when someone thought of starting the generals and anons who saw it slowly trickled in and joined in on the fun.

My problem with promoting thread use is that it brings in people who didn't use 4chins before, and then they think that the point of anonymity is to drop their cringe drama without getting identified rather than have an objective, civilized discussion without being perceived as a specific person
My problem with not promoting the thread is that there's a lower chance of getting nice, constructive anons, and then all that's left is drama schizos

But I don't see a problem for now. I use both thread and discord, and I can't think of any game I've joined through discord because it wasn't posted here. Seems to me like everything worth my attention is present in thread, and I've developed a mental filter through shitposting twenty years ago already so I can live with mentally ill people screeching around, it's also an issue that increasingly affects internet as a whole rather than just this place. Whatever, we're good no matter what happens.

>>516792637
>checked replays
>I drop mags all the time
did I miss a new fancy touch-detection based binding through recent pavlov updates, or is it just me having a stroke?

>>516793171
>someone
You mean tupper and his discord friends? and it more or less started on /v/ sporadically in 2017

>>516793192
Pretty much this desu

Also doesn't help that Hiroshimoot has progressively made it more and more of a pain in the ass to post here. I long for a return to the days before captcha, and I'm not giving him my fucking money to shitpost on a mongolian basket-weaving forum.

>>516794280
buy ze pass

>>516793648
Threads aren’t communities until it’s a continuous thread imo. Sporadic threads not reaching thread cap and months in-between threads isn’t quite commmunity tier.

Ehhhh I attribute the community in the thread more to every anon who joined in and continued to post in the thread when it started. A tourist can start the /vrg/ thread for all I care as an example. In 4chan you wouldn’t really know someone mostly. The anons who stuck through are the community like how a country are people who keep staying in that country. A tourist only comes by for a bit then leaves.

>>516793383
Probably you having a stroke I don't have this problem, just people sneakily pulling them out of my gun for the lulz. Check your bindings though maybe you accidentally swapped something?

>>516794280
Yeah fuck that 900 second shit. I actually bought the pass due to it

>>516793383

Some more udcrap glove testing. The bottom left window is their own hand pose monitor and right is vrchat. They did update their software so the alignment is a little better; the hand angle in steamvr/vrchat is still off but it probably depends on avatar and hand size. The tracking is still pretty reliable and fast even though it doesn't cover the full range of motion, i.e. for splay it does sort of track index and pinky splay separately but it mostly ends up a single value per hand; again no vulcan salute possible. The top right window is the controller emulation, where bending the thumb in counts as a touchpad touch, index is trigger and the other 3 fingers are grip.

The tracking does drift, though I'm not sure how fast it happens yet; taking the gloves on and off does freak it out more than just wearing them. The recalibration takes 10 seconds and is fairly easy to do, but of course still annoying, and affects the reliability of the controller emulation.

I've spent some more time messing around with them and have a more nuanced opinion now. Still wouldn't recommend it and I can write up something more complex but after getting all the solvesble issues out of the way it is shaping up way better than my first day with it.

>>516801378
Also did a piano test. The sticky fingertips are very annoying. I temporarily mitigated it by covering them with little squares of electrical tape; it helps quite a bit. I dunno if I'll end up cutting off the tips completely yet but I'm getting close. Full video with sound:

https://file.vrg.party/udcap-piano-2025-03-06.mp4

It's.. okay, but requires more effort to fix the wrist alignment. And even with smooth fingertips it's still hard to play with gloves on (plus coping with the bigmeme which has neither passthrough or a nose gap to cheat with). Also my piano is in a corner of my playerspace that the tundra trackers don't quite like (hand glitches out a few times).

On the bright side though, it is nice to be able to play piano adequately, with equally adequate tracking, without having to do anything that special, and still retaining full VR control. I did not try the meme pianos with unity physics in vrchat, but they would be slightly easier to play for sure, and then wouldn't also have to do all the extra autism for midi and audio routing.

For comparison here's tracking using mediapipe's ML model (through xr animator) with a regular cheap webcam mounted above the keyboard:

https://file.vrg.party/xranimator-piano-unity-2024-08-16%2017-49-54.mp4

Not perfect but a lot better and a lot easier to play without gloves on. Downside is you can only play piano and requires a lot more autism to get synchronized with vrc proper (have to emulate controllers and shit from the VMC protocol output; feasible I don't think the software for this is actually built yet).

So overall I don't think it's worth it for instrumentfags. I am bad at guitar so I can't test but I'm sure you'd run into pretty much the same issues. Mayybe cutting off the fingertips will help but you'll still be playing with a handicap. Stick to camera hand tracking of some sort.

Probably not doable for the most part because you need more than your fingertips for string muting and bar chords. Someone mentioned to me that some company is working on a wrist-mounted thing that measures your tendons instead, which seems like a neat idea.

>>516806030
I don't think that'd work. It's not easy to turn midi into believable finger pose and animation between poses, even with hand pose grounded with wrist trackers, and even if you got it working well, you still lose out on tracking when you're not strictly playing notes (waving or gesturing or whatever). Straight pose estimation has the large benefit of other people training the models. Honestly, quest 3 hand tracking is probably pretty well on the pareto frontier of "good enough tracking and easy enough integration with vrchat" too, but I don't have one. If anyone does have one and a piano, you should post a video. I'm interested to see well it works.

Ignoring midi is just dumb. It is a source of input with the lowest latency and highest accuracy.
It's should be the "IMU" of your system, with the other sources used to correct it mainly.

>how do I set up?
Follow https://rentry.org/bonerlabeu, be not afraid, it's not nearly as bad as it looks like. If you can start the game after setting it up, you can see bonemenu, fusion, and you either have a good save with everything unlocked or at least you've downloaded one from rentry, you're good. I'll host a server 30min before start, then you can try joining and see if everything works fine - otherwise, write a post with a problem and I'll try to help.

"First of all, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your incredible support throughout our prelaunch campaign. Your enthusiasm and feedback have been our driving force, inspiring us to push the boundaries of what eye-tracking can do for immersive experiences.

Over the past three years, we at Inseye have been on a mission to develop eye-tracking technology that’s not only powerful but also highly accessible and simple to integrate into immersive experiences. We started from rethinking hardware used for eye-tracking —keeping it simple, cost-effective, and reliable—then paired it with AI software ensuring accuracy in real-world conditions. We tested these early iterations on platforms like VRChat, built dev kits for the Pico Neo 3, and even developed a working prototype for the Quest 3, all while gathering invaluable insights and refining our approach.

Our journey has taken us to events like as AWE US, AWE Singapore or Photonics West, where we had the pleasure of sharing our work with the broader community and industry leaders. They appreciated our focus on low power usage, minimal form-factor and cost-effectiveness—qualities that perfectly match the needs of today’s smart eyewear landscape. With AR / AI smartglasses expanding at an incredible pace and new possibilities emerging every day, we recognized that our technology is ideally suited to meet these growing demands.

1/2

>>516858315
Seeing this opportunity, we decided to shift our focus toward integrating our eye-tracking solution into augmented reality devices and AI smartglasses. We are now working closely with clients who are preparing to bring next-generation smart eyewear to the market, integrating our technology to unlock new level of user experience and contextual AI capabilities.

Because of this exciting new direction—and because we’re still a startup with limited resources—we’ve chosen to pause Inseye Lumi project for the time being. Please know this doesn’t mean we’re giving up on VR. We remain convinced VR has massive potential, and we plan to revisit our VR projects when the time and resources are right.

We truly value your support and feedback, and we want to keep you in the loop as we continue on this journey. Please stay tuned for updates—your insights will be invaluable when our product hits the market, and we are committed to keeping you informed about milestones we achieve."

You can easily implement it right now if you want, even without any 3rd party support.
Implementing support of varjo extensions and forcing users to install 3rd party shit is still meh.
Runtime should just provide proper eye tracking support, you can implement everything on top of it, if the headset supports eye tracking, you should be fucking using it for input too, not only to optimize rendering, so you have to figure out how everything works regardless.

tldr; we need proper eyetracking first and foremost, in all hmd's, not just 1.5 total, everything else will come later.
software wise, it's easier than shadow maps, need hardware rn

Does anyone think the Pimax Crystal Super is going to be good?
I know Pimax fucked the dog in the past but I've heard they've largely gotten their shit together

It's so fucking sad that the only "proper pcvr" headset with eye/face is still qpro.
Valve is not even trying with face. AndroidXR retards are going to fuck up face even if they try, which I doubt.
Vision Pro but with wifi7, psvr2 controllers and pcvr support would have been so nice.

>>516862829
I'm not changing my mind about them until they actually release at least 1 (one) proper headset first.

Not gonna lie, lots of my vidya time is sim racing, so I'm concerned about streaming rather than being leashed in general. If this thing is worse than average, then this is bit of a concern to me. How is ALVR bad?

>controllers
What stops me from using Knuckles with it?

>3.5k
Yeah, that's where I consider myself retarded, but I've got some spare cash on the side and honestly, spending big money once on PC/vidya hardware usually yields good results. But I'm googing through for many things now, face tracking quality is bit of a big deal to me (given the price point, it better not do lazy shit like qpro having single-axis in/out tongue switch that gets triggered at random), and if apple would somehow break this ALVR compatibility at some point, i'd just go ahead and kill myself out of shame for being dumbass enough to fall for it.

>you will need a mac

No, it's completely standalone, you don't even need a phone like with quest. But if you want to write software for it / compile things, you will need a mac.
>What stops me from using Knuckles with it?
I dislike knuckles. But even if you don't have them, you will still have to deal with mixed tracking system, which is a pain in the ass.

Eh, for 3.5k, this is a proper downside. Let's be honest, it's probably a terrible way to spend my money.

>>516866282

do you at least hang out in the black cat...?

>>516881412
he very much lacks the crucial information...

>>516881412
>The black cat
Sir let me welcome you to the year 2025, the only people who go to The Black Cat anymore are desktoppers and children screaming on their Quest devices.
It is probably the worst public lobby map in the game because of the amount of children.

>>516881473
what about the madcat..?

>>516881824
Throw everything from 2019 out of the window anon. It's gone.

>>516881824
We still go there very rarely as for a nostalgia trip but I don't think the map has been updated in a long time which is why it's not visited as often as before.

>>516881916
n-nepbar...? did B finish his club..?

>>516882018
>Nepbar
Been dead for YEARS
>did B finish his club..?
B has made FOUR clubs since you've been gone (the fourth one just came out a few months ago) and he has become one of the most successful world creators in the game making big bucks on Patreon
https://www.patreon.com/bluekunVRC

>>516882018
Barely anyone remembers nepbar outside of oldfags, and they're the minority now. B has his club released 3 times.

Nepbar my beloved.

>>516882176
What the fuck

>>516882018
Nepbar got deleted because of a hidden Magic Wand under the floor

>>516882321
He's also the first vbuck millionaire or something

>>516882321
Furries and trannies pay him like $25-50/month or some shit on Patreon just to get a poster in his map, sorta like pic related
Man hit it big with that Club.

>>516882674
wtf I used to be on the wall

>>516882674

>>516882820
Yeah we all did anon.
I can't really blame him though. I would probably do the same thing if I was getting paid fucking hand over fist just to put a jpeg up on a wall of some normie in a virtual map

>>516882176
>>516882321
he's also quite possibly the biggest whiny insufferable nigger faggot in vrg now. that's quite the feat if you will. I mean he was always insufferable but it's only gotten worse

>>516883015

Don't believe everything you read on the internet...

>>516881412
Still up but unpopular now. You won't find a good crowd there.

>>516881824
Still up but broken. One of the updates broke the jukebox, it will start trying to play multiple songs at once and will eventually just crash everyone after awhile. We made some effort to still hang out there but the fact that it crashes everyone is a problem.

>>516883952
And within those 10 people that join every friday lobby EU was unable to find single replacement host instead of the usual 2?

>>516881412
the Great Pug has been the best public lobby for a few years now because it's PC only, which a low pass filter that cuts out the questies

i like the general atmosphere of irony and general shit posty attitude of the regulars

>>516894168
Personally I didn't even know the main host stopped hosting, I thought it was just lack of motivation

>>516894168
i mean i dont have a server that i could host on, but i mean anyone got one already preped by chance? i could try to set one up but it would have to be cloud based atm so idk how well it'd go so far.. or if it would cost much :p

>>516895098
depends on the game
If it's pavlov we've got a host who can spin something up whenever. If it's contractors you can only host on their servers so you just make a game lobby. Same as contractors for most other games too.

>>516895236
think i remember the guy who hosts the server... ill ask ryder so i can take his place, been looking forward to dumk pav all week~

>>516893586

>>516896961

>>516895098
Pavlov still has dave hosted lobbies, doesn't it? It's probably a 10 person limit, but you can cross that bridge if you get there.

>>516832917
slurp!

>>516897347
akshually mr. president, that is not entirely accurate

Why do most VRChat players decide to just basically do jack shit and either plainly talk to people or RP/ERP/LARP with each other instead of actually playing the actual games like Prison Escape or Murder 4 or Trash Compactor?
The top level/game with the most instances is always The Black Cat (a level with nothing to do besides looking in mirrors and "talking" to degenerates) where 20 people with mostly anime avatars and NSFW gooner avatars are bugged into a mirror like flies stuck to a sticky trap.
Worst case scenario is that one of those gooners will be wearing an avatar so poorly optimized that it will turn your game into an unplayable single digit FPS slideshow, and it being a single digit is me being generous about it, because in reality its more like under 1 FPS/1 frame every 4 seconds.

The NSFW gooner avatars are already degenerate enough, what makes it worse is that literal children who are under the age of 13 play this game commonly, and will be exposed to the degenerate troon EPI and will probably get groomed into becoming those very VRChat gooner degenerates

Simply chatting to people is fine, although you hear barely anything from them because there are like 20 other people talking at the same time at full volume and 5 autistic retards screaming thinking that its funny. So when you do decide to chat with people, it feels like you're doing nothing because you cant hear them nor can they hear you even if you're using a high quality mic (I use a PSVR 2 on PC and the mic quality sample rate is surprisingly high quality)

Gooners with horny NSFW avatars, poorly optimized avatars that turn the game into a slideshow, unintelligibility due to hearing the 20 people taking all at once, general discord degenerates, anime avatars, meme avatars, kids under the age of 13, etc. VRChat is an absolute mess filled with mostly gooner troon degenerates and hopefully on-average slightly autistic schizos with meme avatars and at-most "normal" people-

>>516900995
I think most people have played those games to the point where they're tired of them. All are great maps but I've done so many rounds of those games that I don't care to do many more.

>>516811607
Is coffee bad for you?

Drunk Pavlov in 6ish hours!!!
Also do you guys still wanna do a push map or go back to killzone for this time?
And since youre reading this, I wanna ask any potential non-pavlov players something. I'll be busy hosting pavlov so I cant host a real vrg instance and Id rather not come back to a furfag and rando infested shitshow. Can one of you try your hand at hosting in my stead? Id like it to be one person so there arent competing instances.

>>516902338
For me it's push.

>>516902338
Push is fine if you have a good map for it, Kill Show always makes a bunch of people leave.
I think both drag on too long most of the time.
I'd be fine without either personally, but that's just me

Pavlov surf.

I like a bit of killzone but make it not last so long

>>516892963
Ignore. Trust me do NOT ENTER SAFE MODE it broke everything.

I use the PSVR 2 connected to my PC via the PSVR 2 PC-Adapter, with the PSVR 2 app installed and running
I wanna buy body trackers to track certain parts of my body, like my legs, yet all I get are HTC Vive trackers
Which VR body/motion trackers are in general supported by SteamVR?

>>516905245
Vive trackers or Tundra trackers require you to use Lighthouses to track them, Vive Ultimate Trackers can be tracked standalone but i havent heard great things about them considering their price.
Haritora trackers and Slime trackers are also standlaone and much cheaper, but again not as good quality.
So it all depends on how much youre willing to spend.
You will have to use this to sync the playspaces as nothing will work natively with the PSVR2: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3368750/Space_Calibrator/

Will this work with SteamVR?

>>516906745
Explains the shit taste then.

>>516907521
again, its another feature thats only on PS5.
Hopefully they add it on PC at some point, same with the headset haptics as well, since those arent being restricted by other companies, unlike HDR and eye tracking

>>516908195
SteamVR has finger tracking support as well

>>516908558
right but i just meant if they licensed some other company to do it then Sony could get fucked over again like Tobii did with them for eye tracking on PC.

First sanity check that many have missed from my experience: Did you install l2cpp support in unity settings? It's one of modules, Windows Build Support (IL2CPP)

https://github.com/StressLevelZero/MarrowSDK/wiki/ProjectSetup

Also, fair warning: I'll be accepting avatars for no more than next hour, because I want to give everyone time to download them. If you won't get one done in time, just chill in one of many avatars present in a pack.

I'm new to VR and wanted to try VRChat to get over my fear of social interaction, but so far I can't bear to be around others let alone say a word. I thought everything being virtual might make things easier but I guess I thought wrong.

Does anyone have any advice or similar experiences? Or maybe some world recommendations? I'm starting to feel that I'm too far gone.

just look at the pictures they post sometimes. almost no regulars that use this thread, almost all rando friends of the host and furries

>>516928736
>>516929145
it could be vrg if people in this thread would actually exercise

>>516929510
the only people who exercise in vr are the pypy dancers (and some of them also go exercise at this vr gym)

>>516929510
they did. 5-6 years ago.

>>516929145
also most dont even do the exercises they just sit to the side then erp after the event is over

>>516926629
Just go up to a small group and say hi, comment on comment on someone's avatar, crack a joke. You're probably not too autistic for this. It's a cliche response, but a little liquid courage can help too, if you're into that sort of thing.

It's worth remembering that people get on social vr specifically to meet and talk to people. Not every experience will be positive, but don't let every awkward moment or unreceptive person/group discourage you. It's not a judgement of your value as a person, as even well adjusted people strike out from time to time. Some crowds are just too cliquey or maladjusted themselves to be receptive to anyone outside their usual circlejerk.

be brave, push on, and remember everyone on vrc is as weird or probably weirder than you are

>willfully flowchart brain yourself bro
I know you're maliciously trolling, but never do this. You're training yourself to expect particular results from particular behavior which will only lead further confusion and frustration when you're thrown a curve ball. Not to mention, people can tell you're being inauthentic, evaluation has trained the brain to detect it on a subconscious level. This shit would send someone into an unrecoverable sperge death spiral.

>>516936623

The furries in this game are pretty unsettling to see, so thanks for the heads up.

>>516930712
Thank you for the words of encouragement, I'm gonna try to remember that. My issue is definitely gonna be getting over the awful feeling of it rather than what I actually say, but I'll keep trying.

>>516936623
I knew people who would try to learn all these self help social tricks and try to game the system, it's very obvious and insincere. I just want to be able to genuinely connect with people rather than treating them like NPCs.

>>516942743
>it'd be bad if I join and don't talk
For the most part, people won't care too much, although long term you're better off if you do talk at least a little bit

>>516942743
>genuinely connect with people rather than treating them like NPCs
you have to talk with them and show them who you are first; hence, the flowchart. You don't need to use social tricks if you practice talking with people by relying on the flowchart when you need an idea of what to do next

>>516924783
3/4 for table. night is still young
>capctha sxxy

For some reason, in testing in Unity, my hair physbones work fine, but ingame, they constantly fiddle and twitch around, any ideas how to fix?

>>516942743
I did say booze as a semi meme answer, but the real answer is that its something you have to work on and get used to it over time. Booze helps but at the end of the day, being social is a skill, and like every other skill its something you have to practice. Just introduce yourself for a start, it helps a lot when people know that you're "one of us" and not some random +1 extra.

You're lucky enough to be here where you can take things slow, all you have to do is show up to various events and you'll fit in soon enough.

If you can get oast the awkwardness, its worth it! people here are great.

>>516944703
does it depend on your position on the map?

I hope you're enjoying playing games with literal fags, trannies, furries and discord tourist, because that's all you will ever get here.

what's it like having friends to spend time in VR with? like real friends. not just gaming or drinking buddies?

>>516951743
It feels nice. Basically real friends are fine being with each other even through silence. There's a nice feeling knowing you and your friends will do stuff together even if it's just chilling.

Basically if it's not private time they'd be happy to have you along and vice versa. Through any activity and even lack of activity. You do it together

Stop shitting up my thread with your /soc/ shit, faggot.

where do you even get male avatars from?

>>516965967
boothplorer.com has a male category now

>>516965967
Best way: https://boothplorer.com/avatars/male
Questionable way: Pick a flat chested girl model and call it a boy. Maybe slim down the hips a little and widen the shoulders if you wanna go further.

fuck i fell asleep, it already started so i guess i'm staying flat

Want something standalone. Don't want to get Zucc'd. Deckard is too far away (right?).
Is Pico the best option?

>>516967545
Deckard is in 14 days.

>>516967545
Pico 4 is decent but getting zucced is still superior

>>516967643
No matter how good it is and setting aside the fact that inviting Zucc further into your home is a bad idea aside; their VR department is hemorrhaging money. I think it's fairly unlikely they pull out at this stage as but I really don't want to be left with a brick if they just decide to ditch their sunk cost fallacy tomorrow.

>>516968080
You should definitely get pico, you sound braindead.

>>516967545
Pico 4 is basically quest 3 or better (in comfort). You also get cheap high quality fbt with pico trackers.

Less standalone games tho.

>>516967634
My quest 3 order got delayed a week so it's three weeks until Deckard currently.

>>516961894
yup

>>516965048
>Stop shitting up my thread
like you are doing right now?

>>516968080
The chinks are just as likely to pull out of a failed line though, and with no consumer guards either.
The quests don't have like always online drm or anything so worst case is you just set it up then firewall it off and deal with the lack of updates

>soft boy
All I see is a fag?

Why is it that we discuss trash topics in here?
Anyways, I wanna have the VR bar game soon please

*cough*
I wish I'd spent more time arguing online about pointless garbage...

>>516972329
don't die, I actually kind of like you ;_;

Steel runner is a cute game where you build a little vehicle and use it to fight and collect resources

The controls are a bit janky though, and feels like a case of lack of playtesting where it all makes sense to the dev but to a new player it's like huh

I have 1 "real" friend with VR
he's got the typical thirdie opinions on VR
>ugh it's uncomfortable
>it runs bad, no i won't try downloading anything or changing any settings
>it's a gimmick
if I ask if he wants to play a VR game i might've just as well asked if I could stab him with a rusty blade, the way he recoils in horror.
ironically, he loves VRC, it reminds him of GMOD. so if i ever do convince him to put on his headset it's for that and just about that only.
The whole time we're in VRC he'll complain that
>this isn't good enough
>there should be better X
if I point out VRC is a social lobby and if he wants to play a game we could play Y he spergs out
I think the truth is he blows ass at aiming a real gun instead of using m+kb and he refuses to learn...or he's too fat or something. His room being a mess is not an excuse after 6 months

>>516972329
This but unironically

headsets without eye are going to be obsolete by 2026

>the first screenshot is bartender giving a girl an open can instead of pouring it into a glass
Might as well spit on her and call her a whore.
