/vrg/ - Virtual Reality General #1740

>>530243095 (Cross-thread)
Anime is normie tier now

I wonder if Steve is still alive.

>>530414171 (OP)
Thanks chatgpt

OP loved VR early on and met Steve, who got obsessed with VRChat. Steve spent hours daily as an anime girl avatar with a “loli” voice, totally different from his real-life self. Over time, Steve dropped out of college, focused on VR persona stuff, and offered Patreon services, losing touch with reality. OP warns that VRChat can seriously warp people’s identities and lives if they get too deep. He still plays other VR games but swears off VRChat completely, urging people to intervene if friends start disappearing into virtual worlds.

4th for lewd.

>>530414390
gay people get on vrchat and realize they're gay

>>530414516
it's autistic people falling for sissy propaganda

>>530414451
Please no.
I want to play VRChat with my friends without any lewd stuff.

>>530414572
>sissy propaganda
?

>>530414703 (Cross-thread)
>labeling me as "predator"
I don't remember mentioning anyone in particular.

>>530414171 (OP)
Thanks for the submissions so far! Wonderful wishes. We still have some slots so if you want to send more wishes do so now!
Let's fill er up~

2 days remain for deadline

Gaussian splatting!

>>530414703 (Cross-thread)
damn, it reads like pampers is still alive
thanks for the throwback, dude

>>530414869
Here's the template again for tanabata wish anchor

And why does someone have 3d matcaps in their garden

>>530414920
>resident gaussian splatting expert bat signal
This does not look like gaussian splatting, what is going on here?

>>530414897
woops, thanks for the hyper link anon, I reposted before I noticed

>>530415014
No problem Yuki
We are all really excited for your upcoming tanabata event

>>530414995
The world says it's gaussian splatting and it looks more like it close up. I think the splats were made 'blurry' so it looks pretty pristine when you stand back a bit

>>530415454 (Cross-thread)
You were too slow. This guy only sells for like a 3 day period and never again

>>530415516
at a disgusting price too.
what a shit mindset

>>530414572
But I thought autisist were immune to propaganda. There was a meme about it so it must be true!

Doing the second Sword Art Online Progressive movie tonight at 10PM ET (in~13h) for NA anime movie night, I'll post details to join off of when the instance is up.

>>530417862
i wonder if vrg has tried the new, updated sao world..? the map is much nicer for screenshots, although the combat (and losing EVERYTHING when dying, still) leave much to be desired

>>530414920
whoa I have the same coal scuttle

>>530414171 (OP)
GUYS HARUHI IS NOW OFFICIALLY VR
META QUEST MENTIONED
HELL YEAHHHHH

>>530423930
season 3 any day now

>>530424107
you betchya, I can't wait for season 3
I'll host a fucking watchalong on all timezones if season 3 occurs
on a custom map

season 3 will happen right after we sacrifice the seamonkey nigger for desecrating the name of the god

I will gladly sacrifice myself 15532 times over for season 3
Can die happy after I watch season 3

i don't think you understand cause and effect, you retarded nigger
jump from the window tomorrow

>>530424710
the implication is that you need to sacrifice yourself first, before season 3 will happen. Meaning you will not be able to see it.

>>530425740
Well that sucks. No deal then

current humble bundle. I only got Moss II from there.
Is it a good deal for 25%?
Ignore metro, because that is just a discount code

I'm so lonely I think I'm going to explode...

>>530426020
I'll be friends with you, anon.

>>530425986
Vertigo 2 is great

>>530425917
>not willing to sacrifice himself to let others see season 3
fake fan

>>530426159
Playable even if you never played part 1?

until you fall is the only half decent game

>>530425986
Only real stinker in here is pirates vr jolly roger

>>530414572
"Propaganda' implies there is a targeted effort to push an agenda or a narrative. What more often happens is that lonely people finally get attention and validation they desperately crave. Donning the skin of an anime girl and finally feeling cute and desirable is a hell of a drug. On top of that you can indulge in sexual fantasies that do not conform with what is traditionally expected of men like subbing and bottoming. You don't even have to be gay to want that.

>>530427952
>"Propaganda' implies there is a targeted effort to push an agenda or a narrative.
They literally made a transacademy battlepass, my retard.

>>530428179
I only hang out with people from here and some adjacent people so the mainstream publics stuff doesn't affect me directly.

>>530428429
Your argument was "there is no targeted effort to push a gay/trans agenda/narrative".
And I just proved you wrong. What you are personally doing or not doing is irrelevant.

Friendly reminder, boredom tea will be today at 18:15CEST (in 1h)
> What?
An instance where people are encouraged to join for a cup of tea and eventual snacks if they fancy it. The instance will be closed after 30-45min
Likely in a simple room with a table and a video player
> Why?
To share relaxing time before bigger instances and after work. With a focus on things having to stay calm and simple. Making it time limited to ensure it is meant to be an in-between time rather than something big. For that reason it will be posted in the thread but as invite+

>>530429043
>no poem
>no letter
aw, i hoped the trend will keep going

>>530429230

TANABATA TIME
National Holiday, Japan
is a gooooooo Soon:tm:

>>530428660
True, I forgot about it because I don't go out of specific circles. That said, I can speak from personal experience, both what I went through and people I've seen around /vrg/ and /vrlg/, that it is how those things happen. You don't need to get hit with tranny hypnosis to end up hooked on validation from strangers.

>>530425986
I'll be buying this but i already have Until You Fall

>be me
>late 2024
>VR youtubers hyping up 2024 as a huge year for VR games due to Batman Arkham, Behemoth, Metro Awakening
>the golden age of VR is here!
>Behemoth and Metro Awakening get mid reviews and flop

>>530431676
flop was guaranteed since they were VR games, but metro and behemoth were both solid games. Very worth playing.

>>530431676
Metro got bad reviews? Played through some of it and thought it's pretty neat, probably the most polished vidya next to Alyx. Still got to finish it though, so there might be surprises waiting for me.

>>530431676
never trust game previews or hype
the gaming industry is 99% slop

Grammatically incorrect. I also presume you mean you want to stay alive, not someone else.

>>530441272
>I also presume you mean you want to stay alive, not someone else.
Try again.

Gotta go f-ACK!

>>530441638
Even if you want someone else to stay alive, it isn't conjugated correctly.

>>530443129
Is there a tribes clone in VR? I'd kill for that

>>530443334
I don't know, I've seen skiing implemented very poorly but never seen a proper game made with it.

>>530441272
nta, but would 「生きたい」 be a suitable replacement to "I want to live"? Or are there better ways to phrase that?

>>530443334
Jet Island has frictionless hoverboard and grapplehooks
fucking loved this game but I played it and alyx on my first 2 days with the headset so I was blown away by 3d in general.
your mileage may vary
it's a good game but it's kinda barebones and old-vr at this point. the movement is good

>>530414869

I was playing Jurassic World aftermath and it's kind of crazy, even as someone who has played VR, how different seeing a screenshot of something feels vs to actually being inside the headset is. The graphics are relatively simplistic and cel-shaded and yet I still get worried about hiding from the dinosaurs.

>>530444704
生きたい would imply more that you don't want to die or you metaphorically want to start your life, 生きていたい is to continue living.

>>530445573
That game is prime example of wasted potential. The setpieces are all great and then they do fucking nothing with them, just linear hide and seek with raptors.

>>530445573

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1922010/view/542235483178012466
breachers update, they've made some fix for "playspacing", anyone try it yet? I'm ambivalent whether it's a good thing or not, but I'm curious how it actually works. Does it like limit how fast your headset can move in virtual space? Seems like that'd work at the expense of the world would "dragging" along with your head until the virtual movement catches up.

>>530446330
It probably just makes the artificial locomotion speed the maximum possible.

>>530446330
Game allowed you to locomote using the stick while moving IRL in same direction and get speed boost which was obviously not how it's supposed to work.

....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Hurry up booth anon!

Still didn't really work well though, and unless I missed something, I didn't see anything that had been added to make it better for screenshots.

>>530459745
yeah that was funny anon, but why did you kill H at the end of pavlov today?

Keep an eye out for future announcements in the coming weeks. We may or may not have some surprises in the works. A vague “theme” is coming soon. Possibly. Or not.

probably named night city drive or something
You can find it it's really good

can also go with the tried and true "fog road" but that's less of a driving than a sleeping map.

sakura drive is good too

>>530414343
Anime discussion has gone to shit once the community got flooded with Mexicans who've only watched like DBZ, Bleach, and Gurren Lagaan. I don't know what it is SPECIFICALLY about Gurren Lagaan and Dragon Ball but those series are beacons for Tourists who would die if you tried to make them watch something by Tomino or Matsumoto. Hell something like Slayers is probably too much with these people

>>530502725
maybe stop hanging out in normie anime spaces...

>>530502884
I try not to, Alas you run into niggas who have watched exclusively Gurren Lagaan and DBZ in this community quite often. I think I've genuinely begun to hate both properties which is a shame because I like the creative teams behind both.

>>530501585
I wish it wasn't so. I've been a woman in my dreams for the past two decades.

I remember doing this and yeah, it's exactly what you're looking for (if you can find it)

I think this may be it. You've got both rural and suburban/city areas and it's really comfy to drive in. When I was younger I used to go on random wanderlust drives and it really remindes me of that.

c u thursday

i'm pretty new to this stuff, but i want to rip a model (some pokemon) so i can give it more features and alternate color toggles. where do i start?

>>530509154
you start by killing yourself, furfag

>>530509154
Pokemon ripping is hard iirc.
Try researching Dolphin emulator

I SAY HIRA
YOU SAY GAYLORD

HIRA

>>530510328
you all have tails and animal ears

WHO

>>530509154
If you mean literally just a pokemon pretty much every single one is on models-resource, so you can skip the ripping step.

>>530510829
yeah ive found them, but i want to make a custom shiny palette

>>530510904
All you'd have to do then is recolor the texture in your favorite image editor. For your purposes GIMP or pirated photoshop would work.

You'd then, in Unity, make an animation that swaps the texture on the material of the body mesh. Youd then bind that animation to a toggle in your avatar menu. It'd be tough to explain but here's a tutorial.

https://youtu.be/9cF9Dj1d6Nk

>>530509154
Which pokemone, anon? Your taste will be judged.

For me, Lurantis. I'd like to make some sort of gijinka (read: NOT furry) sometime.

>>530512182
hypno. the one in question has fancy nose physics and some other toggles

>>530512280

you're a tourist that came here 4-5 years ago. It's fine. I'm not judging.

I don't see that in the archive. But since it was happening so often, surely you already got 5 examples ready.

Hello, /a/non. Not any of the other anons in this discussion but /a/ was my main board for almost a decade. I agree that normalfag is the proper term but I've struggled to find our mentality outside of /a/. I stopped actively browsing /a/ about five years ago or so and I've kind of stopped caring about people from /v/ saying normie instead. Besides we're on a /v/ adjacent board I guess.

>>530529395
>12 results found
ahahahahahahahaha

totally not a tourist btw
know your enemy btw

stop responding to bait. no one other than posers uses ancient words just for the sake it, i know it, you know it, you can now stop enabling this moronic discussion

>>530529729
stop being such a normalfag

To be special I moved to incels.is vocabulary I say "Normoid" and "Foid" respectively
I also don't say "Tranny" anymore and say "TFoid" which most normoid tfoids are ok with for some reason lmao

>>530529881
so this is how you backpedaling right now?
pathetic

>>530529729
I notice you still haven't posted screenshots of people getting their ass ripped off because they used this word. Kind of like you are moving goalposts from
>nobody used it
to
>well they did but they got their ass handed to them!!!
to
>well maybe nobody handed their ass to them but it only happened rarely!!!


Thanks for agreeing that "normie" is a word that has been used since before 2010 on the website 4chan.org though.
That was my whole argument :^)

>>530490884
>>530414869
Let's gooooo placing it now on the UV mapping

>>530530097
Not him but people would generally be told to fuck off back to /v/ or reddit when they said normie instead of normalfag. Dogpiles were rare and only really happened if the person who said normie got their back up about being told to fuck off.
Again I personaly don't care about the use of normie over normalfag anymore but it was definitely something frowned upon on /a/ back then.

>>530530097
Goalpost stayed in the same place.
>Nobody native uses that word.
Still stands.
>Only tourist niggers like you use that word.
Correct, doesn't invalidate the first point.
>People got shit on for using that word
Correct. Remember doing it personally on /a/ in 2011-2012. It wasn't a widespread word before that
>12 uses total means it was used before 2010!!!!
lmao

tldr; kill yourself, election tourist

>>530526171
You shoot yourself first, I'll definitely follow up afterward

>>530530446
You know what, that is absolutely fair and most likely even correct..
However, the fag said
>Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie".
and never specified /a/ or a time until several posts in.
See >>530530656 on how he moves the goalpost even further. His initial argument (Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie") is now completely gone.

>>530530656
>Goalpost stayed in the same place.
Your argument was
>>530526252
>Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie".

Unless you state that your initial argument was wrong (you just posted more proof that in fact, somebody uses the word "normie" on 4chan) you are moving goalposts.

>12 uses total means it was used before 2010!!!!
You brought up that time frame 3-5 posts in. Time wasn't even a relevant factor in your initial statement.
Hence: moving the goalpost. The goalpost (arguments I need to counter in order to "convince" you) was moved from "nobody uses it" to "nobody used it back before 2010 on /a/".
>Goalpost stayed in the same place.
So no, your goalposts are constantly moving.

Still, glad you are posting more proof of people using that word

>>530531152
>Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie") is now completely gone.

>>530530656

>>530531671
My hands will get sweaty if I wear a glove

>>530531531
Okay, retard, I going to explain it in a way where it's impossible for you to wiggle out.

On 4chan, there are always two categories of people online, people who use 4chan as the main website, aka the "natives", and people who are just visiting, aka the "tourists".
"Nobody native uses that word" means nobody in the "native" category uses that word. It doesn't mean it's not used on the site at all, since there a second group people present.
It was the original point. It didn't change, so the "goalpost" wasn't "moved".

And now you are trying to argue that since "someone used the word, original point "nobody who lives on 4chan uses that word" no longer stands".

Basically, you are retarded.

>>530531671
I can't believe lipwig fucks dogs now.

>>530526252
>Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie".

a lot of posts later
>>530530656
>Nobody native uses that word.

If you want to tell me that you actually meant all the things you posted after your initial statement when saying "Nobody who lives on 4chan uses the word "normie".* " (*before 2010, on /a/, as a native, without getting dogpiled), just say so. Because it wasn't your initial claim. And pissing your pants, pretending like it was doesn't make it so.
I have to assume you do not know what words mean and that you are too much of an dyslexic fuck to properly read, understand and answer simple requests. I will also assume that you legit think you posting additions to your initial claim (again, because you do not know how words work) is exactly like you communicated this in your initial claim itself.

I also noticed that I openly asked for where I moved my goalpost, which you didn't provide. All I wanted to show was that normie has been used since a long time ago. Which I did. And you did too, for that matter.
So by now, to me you are just trying to struggle and find a new addition to your initial claim which has been shown as false (even by you).

Feel free to take this as me forfeiting the discussion. I know you don't understand how words work and desperately need this win :^)

and

are equivalent, you cretin.
I typed "native", so didn't have to type "someone who lives on 4chan".

Is this really the best defense you can come up with? This is simply pathetic.

Dyslexia and reading comprehension are two different things, cretin.
You keep using words you don't understand the meaning of.
I didn't bother reading after a certain point because you kept trying to strawman and put words in my mouth with your "goalposting" bullshit. The original point from the first post still stands unchanged btw.

It's good that you are finally admitting to being a tourist nigger. Not like there is a need for that though. It was obvious to anyone after the "performance" you displayed here.

There are so many souls living on 4chan currently.

It's good to see how unbothered you two are.

I was told cocaine is great for losing weight fast.

>>530538484
refer to the chart

since we love talking about vr games, i bought sniper elite vr for like 3 bucks on the summer sale rn.

its okay. the thing that baffles me is how some aspects are better than its successor (zombie army VR), like the kill cam being superior, or better graphics, but some aspects are clearly worse, like the weird sluggish weapon handling.

i'd say zombie army is the better game, even if a lot more linear.

>>530538175
Don't forget to do lots of exercise. Thrill of the Fight is pretty good for losing weight.

>>530538175
Come cycling!

>>530540736
No worries anon, I got it. Went from nasty obesity to normal weight loong time ago, now i've just gained a bit through last year so i'm cutting off a couple kilos from bmi 24 to planned 21. I'll go for a good cycle every couple days though.

Wish TOTF2 would be on steam, I very much enjoyed the first game even though I didn't got too deep into it.

Jokes on you, fags have no souls.

mom I don't want to watch this episode again

i’ve been playing heaps of iracing lately. used to be assetto single player only but i was just learning and fucking around with traffic or drift mods. now i’ve got some bass shakers, racing gloves, and a racing harness from china things feel sick, starting to learn how to actually race and be fast.

Weight paint, UV unwrap and texture work then it's good to go!

>>530540736
You want to be a little careful with heavy intensive cardio (going for jogs and running,) cardio is the fastest way to burn calories but you really should be doing it for general health and muscular group endurance, not just to lose weight. The problem with cardio that no one really talks about is that it can cause your hunger to spike out of control, which is the trap I fell into a lot.
The real cheat is to drink a tall glass of water when you start to feel hunger set in, and if it still doesn't go away then eat a small snack or meal supplement high in protein, the feeling of hunger usually gauges for protein sources first and just a tiny bit of it can easily make it go away, that's what really made me drop pounds like a motherfucker without feeling like I wanted to kill myself while on a calorie cut

>>530540619
SE and ZA share same engine but they're made by different teams so they don't really play the same. Killcam is the only common aspect really.

>>530545112
nice, good work. iracing is horrendously stressful for me, i can only take it in short bursts (two weeks of playing it all the time, drop for a month), but there's no denying that it does a great job at encouraging you to get faster

Eat a lot of protein, via shakes or whatnot, and you'll feel much fuller. That, counting calories and a light-moderate amount of discipline has had me lose 50 or so pounds since 2022. I eat like total shit and cheat all the time but it works.

Le Mans Ultimate is enough for me for now, but if I can get myself in the habit of running daily races again, I'll probably pick up iRacing later this year. The trial I ran a while back was pretty good, I just didn't run frequently enough for it to be worth it.
I need to actually get a rig too plus a DD wheel but that's beside the point so I don't have to worry about setting stuff back up when I wanna race.

6 months isn't a very long time. It would have to have improved substantially in the last 6 months.

VRCLense or VirtualLens2, do you guys use this and if so, why use one above the other? What are your experiences?

>>530594041
It seems like VL2 has a demo world:
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_ff54f3ca-4aa7-411b-8fe3-2d608e7edff9

And so does VRCLens:
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_85bfeefb-78b8-444c-b4e8-15698fb7864d

Both should rely on sample avatars, so I'd assume that date of world upload update is irrelevant. Probably worth a shot to try both and make a choice. I'm using VRCLens, and I can't think of anyone who wouldn't, but maybe we're all sleeping on something good. Seems like VL2 has a drone mode now according to booth, so at very least it probably got updated since sdk 3.0.

I've written more in depth reviews in the past but I built a babble, rebuilt it in several configurations, and tested 3 different firmwares both before and after the rewrite and at the end of it all I just bought a quest pro.

There are too many issues to list, but it is very sensitive to facial structure and background lighting. My experience roughly 6 weeks ago is completely consistent with >>530580513.

Babble was trained on a small set of volunteer faces so if you are a dev in a pitch black room (or have a similar enough face and setup) it will work very well, but I suspect 60-80% of people who buy a babble are going to be disapointed. It will not work at all if your room is lit, as is required for a camera tracked headset.

I will also note that babble is the only face tracking solution that uses a single camera. Every other face tracking solution has 2-3 cameras because the problem is too hard to solve in 2d.

Anyone know if a VRC prefab exists that lets you customize the gesture animations via radial wheel? Been working on a marketplace avatar, but I don't want to limit whoever buys it with whatever I set, vs. a PC release where you can just customize it in Unity if you don't like it.

>>530595549
Thank you. I had an order placed but will probably cancel it. I was hoping for a wired full face tracking solution with the BSB2E and Babble but I guess I'll have to keep waiting.

>>530587861
Here. You want to set your textures max size to as low resolution as possible while still looking acceptable from a couple feet away. Sometimes 512 or 1024 at high quality will look better than 2048 at normal quality. Never use low quality or crunch compression for any reason.
If the avatar in question uses more than 40MB of texture memory, you're doing it wrong. Unless it's built for orange board activities.

>>530595549
the code is open-source, so if it's shit it could in theory be made un-shit, no?

>>530598993
My personal take is some combination of:

A) Face tracking with a single black and white camera is too hard and the problem is not solvable no matter how smart you are.

B) Only a large company like Apple or Meta is willing to pay for 50-100 people with vastly different faces to take hundreds of clean images for use as training data.

It is honestly impressive that babble works as well as it does given the right circumstances but the problem is extremely hard. Babble is not just trying to detect like open/closed mouth and smile/frown, there are 50 different expressions parameters that it needs to differentiate and convert to stable signals and if any of them wobble it makes your avatar look clowney (unless you delete less reliable sections from the blendtree which is an option).

Optical (I'm referring to Quest 3) is good in terms of aesthetics. If you're not actually trying to input anything, then it's great. The hands will act accordingly.

I haven't played VR in years and I want to replace my old 2016 vive with a quest 3

Can anybody tell me:
- are the pancake lenses from quest 3 worth it? Or should I just get the 3s instead?
- I hear the battery life is shit. If I get a link cable and connect it to my PC, will I be able to play indefinitely, or should I just get one of those Battery Straps?

>>530629180
The pancake lenses are crazy good, def worth it imo.
idk about the battery life I always use a link cable, and my battery is always at 60-80% (using the official cable)

>>530629402
Thanks
I will probably end up getting the cable

>>530629180
A replacement strap is pretty much a requirement anyway, and so is a better facial interface. Might as well get a bobovr s3 or equivalent with a swappable battery.
The major selling point of pancakes is allowing for thinner HMDs, and being clear regardless of whether or not you're in the sweetspot. The price you pay for this is a very dim display ( unless you get a Quest Pro ), and heavy vignetting. Quest3 also has really shit LCD displays with the-lcd-equivalent-of-mura.

In terms of lenses and comfort, the Quest 3S is the same as the Quest 2, and while the sweetspot is small they do not suffer from the vignetting of the Quest 3.
However, the field of view is shit, the comfort is shit, the size is shit. Vignetting be damned, the Quest 3S should not ever be seriously considered.

>field of view is shit
field of view of q2 is fine, just remove the facial interface and use the halo strap

Its always possible. If its rendered by your pc, its possible. But they did put up enough barriers to make it less easy

Anime are rated by putting their posters on a table with the left side being bad and the right side being good
The blue line is the table and the green lines are where people have put their posters

>>530629180
Did the same thing and I can tell you the difference in visual clarity is night and day. Never tried the link cable though, only steamlink and virtual desktop (steamlink is better imo but mileage may vary). A new head strap is mandatory. I used the kiwi comfort strap and it works a charm. Battery is just a random high capacity usbc battery pack zip tied to the top strap which gives me an extra four hours play time. No battery will get you about two hours. I'm sure you can get a second battery and hot swap them if you want to game all day.

More on that:
Before, avatars had zero encryption which made it extremely easy to just take tham using a tool, any retarded-ass eBoy or mirror thot could just rip to their hearts content.
Now it has a basic level of encryption it becomes significantly harder for those low level users to rip avatars, but someone who knows how to dump VRAM and then extract the 3D data would still be able to rip a model - but that's several magnitudes of difficulty higher than just running a tool you downloaded online.

But also AFAIK you're only getting the model by dumping VRAM, if the avatar has some kind of very specific functionality that you want too then that gets lost. But also anyone who uses Dextro to protect their avatar is going to make it even harder since you then have to decode that afterwards.

>>530697974
How did it take VRChat so many years to encrypt avatars?

>>530697974
FWIW vrchat avatars are essentially just a unity assetbundle, which is uploaded directly to S3 when you click the upload button, unencrypted. Since April or so, vrchat added a step where the assetbundle gets downloaded to ram and encrypted by a session-specific key before its saved in the cache, which when combined with EAC, does raise the protection above the average skiddie (can't just take the file out of the cache, can't read the key or decrypted bundle out of process memory, can't MITM the download).

However, if you do reimplement the auth process in e.g. a private vrchat client, the assetbundles are still unencrypted on S3 itself and easily downloadable, and you can import them back into the unity editor pretty much intact (full gameobject hierarchy and properties; only the shaders are actually compiled); no need to dump VRAM itself and deal with the raw meshes sent to the GPU. And it's unlikely this'll change, since unity needs to read the assetbundle format to load the avatars, and reencrypting things in S3 at rest would be expensive (and also decryptable, as the client will need the key sent to them somehow).

Dextro or similar will obfuscate the actual assetbundle before it's uploaded; while it's not perfect (limited keyspace can be brute-forced), it does raise the bar further above assetbundle downloading. Won't stop the dedicated skiddie still, but it's practically the best you can do if you care about muh ripping (I don't).

>>530701207
wasn't their problem, until they wanted a cut of the sale.

>>530701207
They didn't have their own avatar store before

>>530629180
i have a quest 3 (got one recently) and i personally use a usb 3.0 cable WITH power injection on the side so i can play WIRED (least latency) AND charge the headset at the same time.

and yeah, the quest 3 is infinitely better than the OG vive.

Sounds like an excellent way to get your ass banned if you're ever caught. So just don't get caught I guess lol.
I can see this being fixed in the future though if people start using this method more commonly. I've already seen one guy claim he knows how to rip avatars again, but he's not saying a word about it which leads me to suspect it's VERY easy to fix.

>>530701207
They still don't have the ability to rebind keys on desktop which I know from using it to check stuff I upload instead of needing to get out my headset.

>>530706634
Yeah, interacting with vrchat servers gives them a lot more surface area to try and fingerprint your behavior and ban you (vs just copying the assetbundles out of the cache). However there's not really an easy fix. The assetbundle needs to exist unencrypted on your computer at some point (for unity to load it), and the avatar sdk itself is pretty thin on top of unity; i.e. even vrchat wanted to move to some proprietary more-obfuscated storage format, they'd basically need to make a whole new game engine at the same time and break all backwards compatibility.

In theory they could move the avatar decryption onto a TPM, but that's also not cheap to integrate (DRM jews) and it'd (hopefully) be a lot harder to sell (wow! vrchat now requires pluton!). Then again, here we are 3 years after EAC, so

>>530710027
Honestly at this point the only thing I'd say worth doing is continue to try and create flags to detect people who bypass EAC, and probably make some kind of avatar whitelist system and combine it with those auto-fallbacks they spent months trying to make work.

Not going to get into a pissing contest but I have been here for longer than you.
I was trying to search through hundreds my old screenshots of meetups to see if I could even find you in there at all and I could only find this one. There you are, without a headset 7 years ago just like you are now.

The fact you're only in one screenshot out of several hundred of the 2018 screenshots I have further solidifies that you were never any kind of "old guard" to this community. Just some tripfagging retard that would pop in every 8 months and cry that no one was paying you any attention.
I don't know why you still come here attempting to demand people respect you because of some imaginary oldfag status you don't have.
Sure you existed back then, but you were never a part of this community. You didn't participate in any events and you rarely ever came to meetups. You were (and still are) a tripfagging tourist from /ksg/ who found this thread on the catalogue one day.

Not buying a headset in over 7 years is unironically wild.

>>530745328
to be honest, i'm here since forever and i only know him as this minor shitposter that happened to be active long time ago. if he'd come over to vidya, i wouldn't care, at worst i't be more or less unconsciously avoiding him just like i avoid every other name i associate with dumbfuckery. every shitposter of the past is barely visible in the massive shadow of nu-schizos

but my general impression is that he'd blow every chance he'd get anyway, just like all of them

index update: i didnt break it its just that my facial interface fell off
we're SOBACK

>>530746023
He likes to stick his nose into drama that has nothing to do with him so yes probably he would have had an incident long before now even if he had VR

>>530746023
fair enough, would give a second chance (but only if he dropped the trip too)

>>530749260
At this point, you might as well wait and see if there are issues with the first wave that gets shipped out before ordering one.

>>530749619
it wouldnt ship out til october if i ordered now anyways

Just wait until first wave of BSB2E owners give their reviews, I was in the first batch. They said about August 15th at a latest so we'll start seeing a lot of feedback in the next few weeks.

>>530749958
I'd still wait until people have them since you've already waited this long, but I don't know how much of a pain it is to cancel your order for a refund if it ends up having issues.
