[coarse turtle]

honestly androids have more power then quest tbh

if you consider its pretty similar hardware and no vr

[crude temple]

I do hope an emulator of sorts does work - would be very nice to check Quest content whilst on Windows

[undone zephyr]

You could probably cook the hamburger to feed the vrcat with your phone

[fringe helm]

[thick prairie]

not all phones are made equal tho, at least quests are pretty uniform in comparison

[lilac tinsel]

Tupper the cat is already decapitated wdym xD

[rocky copper]

time to kill my phone battery lol

[crude temple]

Someone above said about it having a check that it was failing..?

[coarse turtle]

i mean if my s9+ a 5yr old phone can do it...

[sinful tide]

Currently Bluestacks doesn't work, you'll get an error after logging in

[swift token]

next time you get in VR look at the back of the menu

[coarse turtle]

im afraid..

[lilac tinsel]

I've seen by pure accident, love that dumb easter egg greatly
Such a stupid easter egg too xD

[vivid pivot]

lol

[thick prairie]

and my 1 year old phone cannot

[cedar wadi]

It depends, at least with quest we all know what the hardware requirements are. Android phones are a whole different breed since there's so many

[distant lynx]

Phones generally will have it easier. Only needing to render it on a single screen vs two screens and a lot of dtmata like tracking

The minimum phone is about the same as quest

[ripe dove]

Managed to get my avi to work but for some reason cant use its jacket...

[coarse turtle]

all about the specs

[crude temple]

Guess it's going to stay cold :/ sadsad

[ripe dove]

Rip

[cedar wadi]

Build 1337 when? ;)

[coarse turtle]

Soon™

[undone zephyr]

vrcat good for me 👌

[thick prairie]

which just kinda proves my point lol, not all phones are made equal while quests at least tend to be

[keen stream]

I love it when my device is compatible

[turbid torrent]

Some people are lucky

I can't do it on my phone or tablet

[vital garnet]

How are you getting it to work on BlueStacks? I'm just seeing this.

[hybrid tendon]

Suprisingly working very well on my phone (OPPO 6 5G), cutout mirrorr and video players arent working but nice job for an alpha, vrc+ money totally deserved :P

[cedar wadi]

So if Quest users are Questies, are we now Phonies?

[opal estuary]

my phone isn't compatible apparently so i'm trying on bluestack rn

[visual karma]

I can't turn on avatars because of their "performance rating" even though I can turn them on on Quest.

[opal estuary]

anyone had any luck?

[thick prairie]

I stand by my previous suggestion of calling mobile players mobies

[cedar wadi]

Works fine on my S22 Ultra

[sinful tide]

It looks like bluestacks doesnt work btw. I keep getting an error after logging and and others say its incompatible

[opal estuary]

dar,

[raw vale]

i havent found any compatible devices yet T-T

[opal estuary]

any other emulator that could work?

[undone zephyr]

Scaling works too 👌

[twilit ledge]

all'at rocking on my Google Pixel 6a with 20-40fps in the VRChat Home world

[compact temple]

Galaxy Fold 3, about 20 minutes of usage and went from 99% to 77%, screenie of landscape mode double-screen

[twilit ledge]

just for the funnies

[turbid torrent]

I am just going to wait for the iOS to come out

[sinful tide]

Try using Bluestacks 10, android 11, 8GB of ram and 4 CPU cores. That seemed to work for me, but after logging in within the VRChat app I always get an error.

You also can't play video ?

[undone zephyr]

A dangerous game 👀

[twilit ledge]

I had like 4-5 fps in it

[crude temple]

They did give you a warning

[marsh plover]

where do you see android 11?

[undone zephyr]

Oh god xD

[undone slate]

What push notifications do I get? All the ones I get ingame like invites and group posts?

[remote mesa]

This will be fixed, don't worry!

[hybrid tendon]

oh its expected to not work? I didn't know ^^

[twilit ledge]

Have you allowed the untrusted urls tho?

[undone zephyr]

I barely get 35 fps in steamvr with a 2080s xD

[sinful tide]

Oh sorry, I forgot a step. You'll need to go to the Multi Instance Manager (on the right side of bluestacks), new instance, fresh instance, then Android 11.

[glossy anchor]

Anyone getting: cannot join world, failed integrity check?

[crude temple]

I was unsure, but literally under the player it says "Don't expect it to work well"

[hybrid tendon]

Yea I coded it that's why I wasn't sure xD

[crude temple]

Bluestacks users

[crude temple]

Sounds like a you problem then /j haha

[hybrid tendon]

Like we say: the problem is always between the chair and the screen ^^

[lusty hazel]

Video Players seem to not work yeah

At least not YouTube

[opal estuary]

how does one do that

[celest marlin]

some cpu like snap dragon or Samsung

[agile totem]

yup, it also happen to quest user. or at lest for me, like 95% of all video result in a video player error

[vital garnet]

I'm on version 10, just not sure how to check if I'm using Android 11 though. Also can't push memory allocation past 4GB.

[crude temple]

I normally call it a meat bag error :D

[twilit ledge]

Why use BlueStacks and not your actual phone though?

[marsh plover]

Yeah, that was important

[vital garnet]

I don't have an android phone. :v

[opal estuary]

imcompatible phone maybe?

[hybrid tendon]

Also on my phone if I uncap the FPS, it does the contrary and cap itself to 30. Also will they support phone with 90 hz ?

[sinful tide]

@vital garnet try this, sorry forgot this step ^^

[twilit ledge]

Most likely yes, it just pretty much depends on your phone

[carmine portal]

Anyone else like being a big fat phonie? LOL

[twilit ledge]

if it can handle 90hz just fine lol

[lament chasm]

That's a known issue

[hybrid tendon]

Even tho I uncap to 240, it hard stuck à 60 no matter what

[lusty hazel]

Oh god I just found out the most recent quest version of my Avatar is utterly broken due to this xD

[upper laurel]

when did vrchat start licking the bottom of the barrel for this to even be a thought of concept?

[crude temple]

Out of interest, what feature broke it so it could help alert avi creators with this feature?

[lilac ice]

Yeah...

[lusty hazel]

Nah. nothing related to the beta. I just noticed that I made an opsi when updating my Quest version

[cedar wadi]

30fps, not too bad

[tepid dagger]

Is there a way to disable auto rotate when you open the big menu?

[lusty hazel]

didn't notice it before, that's why

[crude temple]

Ah fair :)

[lament chasm]

Nope

[lilac ice]

My device is unsuppported ;-;

[last glade]

Is there a way to bypass the ram requirement? Launch tag, or anything? Tried sideloading it, but it seems the app does its own check as well.

[lusty hazel]

Nope

What phone do you have?

[undone zephyr]

At least now this can be a good way to troubleshoot quest versions of your avatars, without going out to buy a quest headset

[ripe dove]

Aha i have out smarted his outsmarting

[last glade]

I tried this on my OnePlus N500, which only has 4 gigs of ram, but I can add 2 more gigs of virtual ram. However it still crashes. So virtual ram must not count.

[steady escarp]

iPhone when

[ripe dove]

And they dont stop comin and they dont stop comin and they dont stop comin and they dont stop comin and they...

[hybrid tendon]

not planned yet

[analog lodge]

on oneplus you should be able to add ram using normal memory

[cedar wadi]

Android Gang ;)

[molten furnace]

What type device u got

[lusty hazel]

Virtual RAM isn't really "RAM" it uses space on your normal storag as RAM which is terrible

[modern zinc]

OSC try

[split remnant]

I think we need the next couple hours as well for uh, context

[steady escarp]

That’s what u think

[twilit ledge]

A movie world works just fine for me though

[dense valley]

this is what vrchat would look like on the gameboy

[cedar wadi]

S22 Ultra and a Note 20 Ultra, works fine on both

[last glade]

Yeah, I know. But it was worth a try. Unfortunately looks like I won't be able to try this out. :/

[hybrid tendon]

this is not what I think, the problem is content, nothing has been made for iPhone

[turbid torrent]

Ok cool i can wait

[molten furnace]

So you get max 30 fps on ultra versions of Samsung?!

[marsh plover]

So, bluestacks fails integrety check

[queen pelican]

i got vrchat mobile but i gotta wait for the release outside of plus or, get vrchat plus (idk if there are free trials)

[steady escarp]

What did he mean by this

[cedar wadi]

Mhmm! There was a few people in the world tho

[molten furnace]

Oh hell nah

[crude temple]

I would assume the thing they use to resolve the URL (yt-dl(p?)) is having issues on Android, and movie worlds go around this by using their own site

[molten furnace]

We fucked

[lusty hazel]

omg I was waiting for someone to do that xD

[twilit ledge]

yeah, it's a straight link to the file rather than a ID of the video

[crude temple]

I mean I do wonder if those worlds that play music with a discord video work

[twilit ledge]

They should work just fine

I could try that out if you want though, I just don't know which world is that

[crude temple]

I mean, yes if the issue is as you described, first rule of bug fixing is to never expect it to just be one problem

[crude temple]

I think WispyWoo's worlds do that...? Not 100% though

[glossy anchor]

:(

[molten furnace]

Damn lmfao

[visual cedar]

what is that omg

[hybrid tendon]

Feels bad to be a iOS user

[polar flame]

LMAO

[twilit ledge]

feels good to be both an iOS and an Android user

[polar flame]

[open tinsel]

S22 Ultra runs hella fine 🥴😳

[twilit ledge]

using my iPhone to record and my Android to test out VRChat lmao

[visual cedar]

I am android but my phone is like 7 years old lol

[turbid torrent]

Welcome to the club i can't get it too

[cedar wadi]

Android port likely wasn't too hard since they already build for Android (Quest)

[nova glacier]

I have an iphone and an android tablet, but tablet's not good enough apparently 🤷

[visual cedar]

I do want this tho so I can see if my quest stuff even works as its always been me shooting from the hip

[open tinsel]

I work McD's watcha mean

[dusky valley]

For some reason I can't download the mobile app and I got android 11 anyone know what to do?

[last glade]

Man, I was looking forward to this for soooo long and I can't even use it. Guess I'll have to stick with whipping out my Quest 2 every single time I wanna test my avatars. :/

[crude temple]

The phones that have the capability to run it are just robots in disguise

[open tinsel]

What android phone you got goin?

[steady escarp]

Imagine wanting to play vrchat on mobile builds in any way even with quest

[shell nest]

My issue is
It keeps dropping rhe Audio
At the beginning my headphones and mic is all fine
But after like 5 min it disapears and reconnecting doesnt work
Restarting only does but then only 5 min agein :/

[hybrid tendon]

I have an index and a pc so

[dusky valley]

The celoro 5g

[vital garnet]

@sinful tide Yeah, failed integrity check as well

[turbid torrent]

Same i got a android 11 too and my phone is Samsung galaxy s something i think

[open tinsel]

Thats budget. Wont run

[steady escarp]

Bro you didn’t even read what I said

[molten furnace]

we gonna have to hit up that one android company that makes the legit gaming phones lol

[rain vault]

What if the quest 2 only couldnt see very poor, but mobile vrchat could? Arent phones more powerful than the quest 2?

[dusky valley]

I just keep getting the error message your device isn't compatible with this version.

[hybrid tendon]

Yeah, and i answered that i dont have neither of that :P

Bro it doesn't show up on my phone and I have an android

[open tinsel]

I think the 22 ultra is capable of being strobger than quest

[rain vault]

I'm using a s23 ultra, it runs very well even with my very poor own uploaded avis.

[open tinsel]

I did say your phone is budget. Also only 4 gigs of ram

[twilit ledge]

The Quest 2 is still a beast of the hardware, I don't think that mid-range phones are that close to Quest's power

[steady escarp]

ESL moment

[rain vault]

I am running the game on a s23 ultra, i would love to be able to see very poor avis though.

[steady escarp]

Okay I want this ui but for desktop

[dusky valley]

Yeah how do we fix this?

[steady escarp]

Get a new phone LOL

Most niche update of all time

[pearl mulch]

even powerful mobile phones are nowhere near the power level of PC running VRchat

[molten furnace]

New phone lol

[vale obsidian]

How well would this work on a Galaxy S 20+?

[rain vault]

I know, but why has quest 2 been able to see them like forever now, and we cant even see if its bad or not on the mobile version?

[molten furnace]

I don't think anyone here got that gaming phone that's out we gotta test that mf

[twilit ledge]

I am really concerned about the game's anti-cheat system though, doesn't the Android port mean that there will be more bad actors on VRChat?

[molten furnace]

30 fps probably

[open tinsel]

Just get a flagship android. The best you can do. I think a Samsung Galaxy S10+ or better might work or equivalent

[spiral prairie]

FYI, I tried the alpha in the Android subsystem of my Chromebook, and it works well! It even provides WASD movement.

[modern zinc]

Footage?

[pearl mulch]

vrchat changing their mind as far as what's acceptable performance levels

[steady escarp]

TCL has the fastest android phone out right now and he was getting like 45 frames in a packed instance (20 people)

[vale obsidian]

Good thing I'm eventually upgrading to a Galaxy S23 Ultra soon

[spiral prairie]

Sure, but it will look like a phone too LOL.

[steady escarp]

This shits bad

[split remnant]

I'm using a Samsung A53 (a ~$320 US midrange) and my home world (Purple Sweet Home) was running at seemingly 60fps, didn't actually check

[pearl mulch]

the quest performance ranking page has mentioned for a long time they could just remove very poor avatars all together

[lusty hazel]

lol

[rain vault]

Rather stupid to be honest. Cant we just have one try and have like, devices be ranked based on which can handle and which can't? Enabling the very poor avis perhaps for good phones and disabled for lower end might be something.

[modern zinc]

Imagine vrc gift cards

[hybrid tendon]

I have a new phone....

[gritty steppe]

I have that phone

[lusty hazel]

God, this game drains the battery really quick

[crude temple]

Whey.. wait is that a youtube video..? I can't tell, or is the player just working

[gritty steppe]

Asus rog 6

[twilit ledge]

mine has became a nuclear reactor

[molten furnace]

This mf gonna be needed to run vrchat smoothly lol

[crude temple]

Add watercooling and we'll call it a deal

[gritty steppe]

Lol

[heady sparrow]

my phone battery was at 50 and when I opened vrchat it just shut off completely

[hybrid tendon]

I have a TCL 30 5g

[glacial slate]

Who else can't access to the link?

[spiral prairie]

VRChat Android on my Chrombook desktop (running in Android subsystem).

[pearl mulch]

that would be kind of complicated to calculate and not great user experience having it essentially be random as far as do other people see your fallback Avatar or not because of their hardware specs differing is not great

[lusty hazel]

My Tab S7+ is getting toasty xD

[crude temple]

Wait this is a great idea

[open tinsel]

Tab S9 Ultra VRchat when?

[molten furnace]

You're basically telling us to

[rain vault]

A survey hosted by tupper could do i guess? Get some results from users with varying phones to see which ones are the best and can have the option for it.

[steady escarp]

The vrchat phone

[spiral prairie]

Nice big screen, and it even has WASD movement.

[lusty hazel]

Considering that it works on my Tab S7+, it should be fine

[gritty steppe]

The rog runs 30 to 61 fps depending on the world an how many people there are.

[pearl mulch]

like as an example PC VRC doesn't have any concept of changing Avatar rank based off of spec

[crude temple]

Kinda just want to invest into VRC+ just to try that now, I'm sure I have a dusty Chromebook somewhere downstairs

[steady escarp]

The vrchat phone 2

[ripe dove]

Im getting 45-60 frames in the black cat

[crude temple]

Not enough cameras

[pearl mulch]

what frame rate are you getting

[ripe dove]

Pretty solid game

[gritty steppe]

Same

[steady escarp]

The vrchat phone 2.1 (this phone is 30,000 dollars)

[heady sparrow]

the vrchat phone 3

[crude temple]

oh no

[open tinsel]

PPEAT

[rain vault]

Of course, pcs are more stronger. But again, some phones like mine are pretty strong and would love to atleast try very poor to see how it'll go. Maybe it'll cause heating but its why i said before to have it as a optional feature with a warning before enabling it.

[ripe dove]

Not the icarly gizmos

[steady escarp]

The vrchat phone 4

[heady sparrow]

not the literally every nickelodeon show in the early 2000s

[crude temple]

Smells like feet

[rain vault]

Who tf gonna game on that boomerang looking phone 😭

[modern zinc]

Wtf is dat

[steady escarp]

[spiral prairie]

50s at this since. Was getting high 60s with it not so big.

[lusty hazel]

This is imo still the best way to play VRChat xD

[zealous grail]

also crashed first few minutes

[twilit ledge]

tamagochi vrchat when

I love and hate this at the same time

whatever happened to this phone?

[steady escarp]

Ok now this is epic

Congress laughed

[crude temple]

this is so good I can't even tell if it's photoshop

[lusty hazel]

please tell me this is real xD

[pearl mulch]

figured I'd point that out because that would represent actually playing VR chat being in a room with avatars

[steady escarp]

Phone posters say it’s photo shopped

[tepid dagger]

I lose audio if I go into a world with more then 4 people.

But can VRchat android run in Minecraft?

[steady escarp]

If you can’t tell that’s photoshopped I’m really sorry for y’all’s brain

[twilit ledge]

Tried it again - YouTube videos don't really work, direct URLs to media files do

[zealous grail]

okay one thing, this literally combines the two worst possible types of vrchat, quest shit capabilities for graphics, so they can only run quest worlds. AND the worst version of non vr pc shit gameplay.

[ripe dove]

its gonna take a loooooot of redstone

[open tinsel]

PIP mode >:)

[nova ravine]

Actually I had some legit cool ideas:

1. There are green screen worlds all over the place. What if we had our avatars on our phones directly in the background; someone calls us and we can see them like as if we were talking to them or whatever. A 1 on 1 call
2. VR/ARchat. VARChat (LMAO). Think the idea of Pokemon go but this

[visual cedar]

Yeah its shopped

[open tinsel]

Omg

[spiral prairie]

40s in a room with 8 avatars and a good bit of Udon going on (a game being played). Still very usable.

[visual cedar]

self checkout is funny too tho

[crude temple]

I'm so mad, but I will say, excellent photoshop

[visual cedar]

I am gonna do that now

[ripe dove]

now do it on a smart fridge

[hybrid tendon]

How to set the Gestures on Mobile

[pearl mulch]

glad to hear you could actually use it for playing VR chat

[open tinsel]

Its even got internet explorer

[ripe dove]

[steady escarp]

Is this a real question

[nova ravine]

I have bills and shit I have to pay first

[pearl mulch]

and that means some friends of mine that only have Chromebooks might be able to try VR chat

[open tinsel]

Piggy back with parent.

[crude temple]

Nah they're the vive trackers for phone, attach them all over your body and it starts wobbling whenever you're touched there

[steady escarp]

Compared to bills 100 dollars is literally minuscule for annual

[raven wraith]

I have a question

[crude temple]

Whilst I hate to admit it, RP giving birth in VRChat probably exists more than I'd like it to

[raven wraith]

Can anyone tell me if pc avatars will be visible for avatars

[hybrid tendon]

But one thing would be more
Kids
for those parents who can't afford a Quest

[ripe dove]

[nova ravine]

I was thinking about it earlier, if I could get more hours, I would be able to get a sub. I still dont get why is 100 and not like 50 or even 25. We have how many people doing this already? Yeah.

How does one play vrc on the phone I'm a vrc+ user but don't know we're to go

[steady escarp]

Lmao bro

[open tinsel]

Android user?

[slate loom]

#android-announcements

[pearl mulch]

nope just Quest content with no very poor avatars

[nova ravine]

It still expensive regardless.

[hybrid tendon]

My Phone got a bit warm

[steady escarp]

It’s really not you are paying like 100 dollars for twelve months that’s literally less than ten dollars a month

[open tinsel]

It is more cpu intensive 💀

[steady escarp]

The only thing is you pay it all at once

[rain vault]

Mine did too, i wore a very poor avi and it does get warm. But surprisingly it stayed at high fps lol

[slate loom]

My phone's also gotten warm during some instances, but surprisingly never really hot to the touch (Pixel 6A)

[rain vault]

S23 ultra btw

[twilit ledge]

Mine's turning into a nuclear reactor now

[twilit ledge]

yooo I got the same phone wtf

[ripe dove]

same

great phone glad i got it

[open tinsel]

Tab S9 Ultra with vapor chamber no sweat

[crude temple]

I wouldn't say it's expensive, but as a student I personally wouldn't blow £100 on an upgrade for a game.. although I will blow more than that on avatars

[twilit ledge]

mine's overheating real bad and no matter where I go I sometimes have major stutters

[slate loom]

that's actually the phone we tested with quite a lot, but we benchmarked with plenty of others as well

[lusty hazel]

Does VRChat work on rooted Phones btw?

[nova ravine]

yeah sure but even then 8.33~ a month is something I need to keep saving up. after dragon con if I have some decent amount of money left over, this is 3rd on my list of things to do

[nova ravine]

Why wouldn't it?

[open tinsel]

Im sure if fortnite didnt allow root, vrc wont

[lusty hazel]

no idea, just asking ^^

[ripe dove]

some of these stutters scare me tho lol its a brand new phone and the stutters sometimes make wierd sharp noises

[open tinsel]

Root destroys integroty 😭

[rain vault]

Its normal.

[ripe dove]

ok

[rain vault]

Even on pc it can stutter

[hybrid tendon]

One said VRChat Mobile does not have EAC, highly possible to root and mess with the game files

[open tinsel]

Possible.

[rain vault]

Maybe its possible to enable very poor avis that way? 👀

[ripe dove]

yeah ik but it maked the noises in my headphone and not my brand new phone which costs more to fix

[steady escarp]

Dude if your going to cons I don’t even know what ur talking about anymore

[crude temple]

I do wonder what the integrity check is, is there like a "is_integrity()" method or..?

[nova ravine]

I've been planning to go to Dragon con BEFORE they announced this anyway.

[hybrid tendon]

Dude look if you got money for conventions you can spare 8 or 10 dollars for a month like bro that’s literally a meal for a day but you get it for a whole month

[pearl mulch]

and you could just pick up the VRchat plus literally for just the month of the convention

[crude temple]

bro can't buy vrc+ 💀💀💀 /j

[nova ravine]

I really don't want to either.

[steady escarp]

Ur fucking first pronoun in ur status is dude

[open tinsel]

Then why you here

[hybrid tendon]

Luckly i got it gifted

[steady escarp]

Like what even are you complaining about

[nova ravine]

It's a joke

[lusty hazel]

Yeah that works fine for the most part. You are confusing the API a bit though xD

[steady escarp]

Why are you joking about something like that

[crude temple]

was joking about the people who start their sentence with bro and finish it with 💀

[nova ravine]

Because it's funny as hell to see people get mad at pronouns

[steady escarp]

I don’t think this is true

[steady escarp]

So ur just a troll dude bro

[hybrid tendon]

If a friend joins me, what Instance would it choose?

[lusty hazel]

EAC only runs on PC

[crude temple]

It is true, if Vanced wouldn't exist otherwise

[lusty hazel]

The one that is shown in your profile for them

[crude temple]

I'm sorry what

[nova ravine]

No I'm not a troll remotely, some things are just fuckin stupid.

[steady escarp]

LOL what

[open tinsel]

EAC on phone is wild

[lusty hazel]

I had a brain fart their, my bad xD

[nova ravine]

Surprised that they haven't found a way to do EAC on shit like this considering the mobile game market is ridiculous

[steady escarp]

Eac on phone is monitoring my phone calls guys help me!!!!

[lusty hazel]

it's 3 am okay? xD

[crude temple]

Broke apart my whole point in a single sentence with a brain fart

[steady escarp]

Dude eac is literally on mobile theirs no way it’s not

[lilac delta]

Thanks! 🙏

[open tinsel]

[rain vault]

Jij bent ook een nederlander?

[steady escarp]

I don’t think u understand how the eac sdk is implemented

[nova ravine]

Laugh my ass in

[lusty hazel]

Nope, EAC only exsists on PC

[rain vault]

Into what

[lusty hazel]

nope, germany

[nova ravine]

I'm wondering as well see #android-discussion message

[quasi tangle]

the "very poor" restriction should be optional

[hybrid tendon]

me too

[rain vault]

Oh, have another friend who's in germany, i frogor

[open tinsel]

💥

[crude temple]

Suddenly imagining someone laughing so hard that their ass compresses into their body

[nova ravine]

well 1 way to look at this is "android only lobbies" where as of right now only VRC+ members can join, or just VCR+ memebers.

[rain vault]

thats what i have been talking about here for some time now.

[open tinsel]

Titan submersible

[crude temple]

Doubt they were giggling tbh 😂

[open tinsel]

[steady escarp]

It’s kinda weird it’s vrc+ only for mobile . Like it’s already a niche way to play and they are making it even more limited of a user base for it? Lol

[mortal solstice]

my GalaxyS20 gets warm but otherwise runs fine, though I get tons of random hard hithces with voices or sounds repeating VERY fast until it unfreezes

[lusty hazel]

#android-announcements (watch th video / read the blog post)

[steady escarp]

Dude what

[pearl mulch]

this is basically a paid beta test at the moment

[nova ravine]

This is what I'm saying.

[pearl mulch]

this is not the general public release of vrchat mobile

[crude temple]

It's niche on purpose, they wanna find bugs quickly before it affects the masses

[open tinsel]

Its like paying for them COD betas

[steady escarp]

dude imagine paying THEM to bug test THEIR GAME

[rain vault]

If you own a steam deck you can sorta play vrchat on mobile(ish?) For free

[crude temple]

Playerbase are always better testers, look at Hades

[lusty hazel]

I mean... you don't have to...

[steady escarp]

Okay but why aren’t y’all getting payed for working for vrchat

[rain vault]

I've tested so far and it runs well, but again. Like i said before, would love a option to enable very poor avis

[lusty hazel]

https://hello.vrchat.com/careers

[open tinsel]

Everyone will find something to complain about

[crude temple]

In the nicest way possible, meat bags are better are being bad at using software, so they find bugs that people within VRC fail to see

[steady escarp]

This is why modern video game standard setters are seething over shit like baldurs gate 3

[rain vault]

Only thing is very poor avis rn, thats it for me. Everything else seems pretty good

[open tinsel]

Yeah reasonable

[crude temple]

average ign watcher

[rain vault]

I hope it becomes a option. It'll degrade performance and kill battery but i'll probably only show friends avis.

[steady escarp]

They should give you free vrc+ for bug testing it

[lilac delta]

Is there a way to crouch on phone like using the c or z keyboard mode?

[steady escarp]

Pay the players already bro they carried the game this far

[rain vault]

Its 10 bucks for a month

[hybrid tendon]

hold jump

[crude temple]

Dude... you should try this

[slate loom]

Hold down the jump button!

[open tinsel]

No one is messaging...

Im scared

[rain vault]

I guess thats somewhat a point, but again, 10 bucks.

[pearl mulch]

that's counterproductive to the point of making it vrchat plus to begin with

[lilac delta]

You guys helped me a lot thanks!

[rain vault]

Nightmare nightmare nightmare nightmare

[steady escarp]

Bro just pay me my money I deserve

Easy

[lusty hazel]

Please keep this channel on topic guys.

[steady escarp]

It is on topic

Your just getting upset…

[thick prairie]

….you’re*

[crude temple]

I knew somebody was gonna do it to em

[thick prairie]

I had to okay lmao

[grand zenith]

Youre mom

[steady escarp]

Thank you bro

[naive bluff]

👀 The fuck is going on down here?

[steady escarp]

Their was a long pause too

[twilit ledge]

yrou'e

[crude temple]

@steady escarp is mad for not being paid for testing the beta when they don't have VRC to even try out the beta in the first place

[steady escarp]

Dude honestly I just want some compensation

Is it too much to ask for?

[pearl mulch]

someone being grumpy that the VR chat plus requirements for the Android Alpha

[lilac delta]

So far great experience so far on my Z Fold 4! Miss the very poor option but not a deal breaker. Great framerate. Mic is compressed they say. 7/10 for the early alpha build so good job developers!

[grand zenith]

Yes

[rain vault]

Okay what if we got very poor avis on the mobile port but only friends can have it turned on, and it stays as a optional setting still. Would that be a better approach?
Still, the option is off by default and has a warning like i said before, before turning it on.

[crude temple]

I really do recommend you look up Hades

[naive bluff]

You mean... the requirements that were public knowledge since the beginning?

[steady escarp]

I’m familiar but seriously yall where’s my content creator bonus

[rain vault]

You made stuff?

[open tinsel]

Compensation? Pat yourself on the back

[pearl mulch]

the Creator economy hasn't been implemented yet

[sharp ginkgo]

i dont know how i feel about this whole mobile thing i feel like its just gona bring a bunch of 8 year olds on their i pads to this game and make public worlds just that much more unusable

[crude temple]

Why am I even talking to him, obvious troll is obvious

[lusty hazel]

Man if I would get paid for cannys I would be rich lmao

[steady escarp]

Nah dude never made nothing

[grand zenith]

I can't wait to see public worlds when this goes live lol

[last glade]

I have a OnePlus 6, and it says it has 6 gigs of ram on the specs page and it's on Android 12. But Google Play still says that it is unsupported...

[sharp ginkgo]

i personally do not

[crude temple]

I can't wait to hear people's mic randomly turned on to hear parents arguing in the background more than I already do

[sharp ginkgo]

why did vrchat even try this

vrchat isnt even going to be mainly played on vr anymore

[crude temple]

From a business perspective, more people = more money

[twilit ledge]

To bring more userbase to the game probably

[thick prairie]

as a quest user, I doubt I’d even be able to load into any popular public after this

[sharp ginkgo]

bruh all this is gona do is bring more 8 year olds who arent gona pay crap its just going to ruin their game

[crude temple]

With all due respect, that hasn't stopped quest

[twilit ledge]

it's gonna be a new elitism thingy
so that would be
PC VR > PC > Quest > Android

[grand zenith]

I wanna see how long it takes before a kid blows into his mic on the phone app lol

[sharp ginkgo]

at least quests are somewhat hard for 8 year olds to get their hands on every single one of them has an iphone

[median sorrel]

ayo btw is there any way to see peoples quest avatars lol

[thick prairie]

not that I don’t like the idea of mobile vrchat, I look forward to trying it when I can. just…. my quest already struggles in publics, imagine (probably) double the playerbase

[crude temple]

You.. assume this hasn't already been done?

[median sorrel]

all i see is fallback which i understand but is there anyway lol

[grand zenith]

The phone app came out today, so yes

[crude temple]

I couldn't agree more

[steady escarp]

I’m still waiting on playmaker bros I spent all that money on it in 2018 ….

[lilac delta]

Now release vrchat on my smartwatch lol

[steady escarp]

Better get some compensation for that too

[twilit ledge]

It doesn't really mean that all of the instances will be overcrowded, I'm pretty sure there still will be some instances without the hefty amount of people in them

[crude temple]

WearOS, I reckon it wouldn't be hard

[crude temple]

I think he means that if he's instant hopping, it'll be harder to find a good lobby

[sharp ginkgo]

lets just hope they did a crap job on implementing it so people dont take a liking to mobile

[plain magnet]

Sos guys, do you know how to open yoir radial menu

[lilac delta]

Then il go on my watch and watch movies on the go jk lol

[grand zenith]

Playing vrc from an lg smart fridge kek

[crude temple]

Not a bad idea tbh

[lusty hazel]

Hold down the Menu button ^^

[plain magnet]

Thank you!

[twilit ledge]

from an amazon echo lmao

[plain magnet]

My other question is how can i use gestures on mobile

[crude temple]

Then people will just complain that it's implemented badly, as much as I understand it'll bring kids to the platform, I do enjoy the idea to have a native android app for push notifications

[meager pelican]

@vital cargo

[wicked light]

i want to see that now... lol

[open tinsel]

VRChat Very Special Edition

[thick prairie]

fair enough. Just more of a worrying than anything

[lusty hazel]

You can technically already do that in a Model S / X, cause they have Steam on them xD

[sharp ginkgo]

yeah but seriously they shouldve just made it an app you can use to monotor your vrc stuff not a full on platform

[lusty hazel]

They run on Linux ^^

[crude temple]

Alright, what university did yall get your photoshop degree in

[visual cedar]

how do I get it to stop saying unexpected item in bagging area :(

Man I wish the McDonald's wifi was faster, id be playing while waiting for my bus. Lol

Now I'm waiting for someone to use their Tesla sensors to control OSC

[vale obsidian]

That would be impressive AF

if nothing else, at least the memes and jokes have been pretty good so far lmao

[visual cedar]

Public black cat lobby

[lusty hazel]

time to use the andriod version on Quest

The android version is literally merged with quest…

[crude temple]

Would vrchat mobile work on my andoid vr headset

[lusty hazel]

looks good to me 👍

[plain magnet]

I wonder

🫠

[vale obsidian]

Imagine play VRC on a smart watch, that would be curious

[crude temple]

Probably a question for a developer, but is the quest version a different apk than the one released for phone?

[steady escarp]

Don’t vrchat and drive y’all

[thick prairie]

now, what would be interesting is seeing vrchat mobile support gyro look-around, like steamdeck can

[plain magnet]

Didnt work on my smart watch 😭

[open tinsel]

[lilac delta]

Nooo big sad

[crude temple]

man stopp I'm gigggling so bad

That’s an interesting question . Does the quest actually use apks?

[pearl mulch]

yes

[vale obsidian]

I have a Watch 5 Pro

[thick prairie]

phone call leads straight to that phone on the desk in the black cat

[steady escarp]

Well it’s safe to assume every single version of vrchat is a different apk/exe

[lilac delta]

Will it work on samsung dex? Hmmm il test tomorrow

[open tinsel]

Watch 5 pro one ui beta broken

[dusky valley]

I'm pretty sure my phone should be compatible but it just says it isn't.

[thick prairie]

Hate to tell ya like this man, but I’m actually an AI

[twilit ledge]

why would you put 4k quality on a mobile platform

[mighty meteor]

Is this due to using a side loaded apk? I don't use play store since it conflicts with my main app store

[crude temple]

By the way, I was joking around, my profile picture is an AI generated photo :)

[grand zenith]

I was getting this on the McDonalds wifi lol

[icy knot]

I vaguely remember back in the old days of Android you could see what tripped the "Your device isn't compatible" message in Google Play (or at least in the APK Installer), is there anyway to see that now? I have a Pixel 3A running Android 12, last security patch for it too.

[steady escarp]

I wonder if this has anything to do with eac not being installed lmao

[plain magnet]

I keep getting this even with the play store version

[mighty meteor]

Might be a VPN actually hold up

[steady escarp]

VPNs shouldn’t matter

[thick prairie]

oh nice, and yeah I figured you were jokin lol

[mighty meteor]

Shouldn't yes

[grand zenith]

The rez is just the size of the virtual cam. It just uses that to take a pic, it's not your screen rez

[mighty meteor]

But vrchat website at least does have several nordvpn IPS blocked

[crude temple]

ah okie, I wanted to elude to it first before saying that because AI tends to get a lot of hate

[steady escarp]

LOL I can only imagine why

[mighty meteor]

Its annoying

[plain magnet]

My wifi should be fine 😭

[steady escarp]

Blame gang monkeys

Running up all the vpn ips

[icy knot]

Where did you get the APK? VRChat doesn't seem to be distributing it directly?

[twilit ledge]

ikr, I'm talking about the picture res, why would you put that hefty resolution in there if it can instantly crash the game

[open tinsel]

Fr tho, this screenshot looking like a Telltale Games game

[grand zenith]

Idk, how to debug this yet lol so best of luck lol

[crude temple]

Oh then yes, you're accessing VRC's server, that's gonna be on the same domain as their website wait actually not likely

[steady escarp]

That actually doesn’t look too bad

[hybrid tendon]

Problem found, i was using my Bluetooth headphones after changing World. Sound wont work anymore at all until restart

[steady escarp]

Minus the lack of cutout

[mighty meteor]

No VPN same issue

[thick prairie]

yeahh. which is unfortunate, cuz it’s pretty cool, but not unwarranted, because of all the stuff that’s been going around of people stealing writings/art/etc. from other people without permission to train them. at least, that’s what I’ve heard, anyway; truly the bad few who ruin it for the rest

[crude temple]

Did.. you launch VRChat irl?

[grand zenith]

It's just the quest built with extra stuff. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[brave blaze]

really wish I could download the APK and install on a 'non supported' pixel 4xl that meets the spec requirements

[open tinsel]

Yes

[mighty meteor]

Actually I don't think I am technically using a side loaded apk, I'm using Aurora store which pulls from the play store

[icy knot]

Ah

[crude temple]

Yeah, I'd go into more detail but obviously off topic :)

[thick prairie]

hey, I actually had this issue on quest for a long time! switching worlds after this happened would crash me. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the bluetooth device, otherwise restart

[hybrid tendon]

I tried, you get an extra error with the unsupported device, that means not working if unsupported device

[brave blaze]

I know the error you got and its due to needing an xapk whish is more complicated to export

[thick prairie]

ah yeah right, mb ^^’

[crude temple]

no worries dude, dms are open if you'd like to talk about it more

[hybrid tendon]

[gray gate]

Oh

[meager pelican]

@vital cargo

[open tinsel]

Guys... does this run on Galaxy S2??? ||this is jokes but please tag along||

[icy knot]

Does the Play Store automatically block devices with less than 6GB of RAM?

[crude temple]

I'm pretty sure it does, I tried it yesterday but I think they had an update today

[slate loom]

I believe so, it should let you know if you don't meet requirements

[mighty meteor]

And if you sideload it will not let you still

[gray gate]

Well I wait for an hours to get it work and yet it still said not compatible

[thick prairie]

you could probably find it under “phone details”, “hardware”, or something similar, or search for “RAM” if your settings has a search bar

[vale edge]

That said, I've yet to see it go over 3.5Gb of memory usage Even in a black cat with 40 people and no safety settings. Very pleased with performance

[icy knot]

Ah, it just gives a vague error on the download page. Is there anyway around this?

[pearl mulch]

oh no the poor creature is getting floating Point precision

[crude temple]

I hate that I get this

[slate loom]

What's the error?

[thick prairie]

then yeah, prob a ram issue. unfortunately it’s not quite available to all phones because of that

[pearl mulch]

folks should probably go test those Quest compatible airplane maps to see if there's any differences

[hybrid tendon]

Anyone has tried going to Udon Bird Sanctuary world on mobile yet?

Totally epic and radical in touch with the community and game design reference you just made my friend

the steam store page still has graphics from 2017 xD

[median jolt]

[thick prairie]

lol

[steady escarp]

They honestly need to put the t posing 2016 screenshots up

[median jolt]

yes

[slate loom]

Right, that error suggests hardware isn't compatible I believe

[crude temple]

How high in the company does it have to go before they get a potential refresh, in game images are cool but nice graphics are good too

[vital cargo]

Dude I just did it for a joke, I did it in less than a minute in Photoshop xD

[median jolt]

i wouldnt know and if i did, i probably wouldnt tell you

[vale edge]

Highest I got was 3.4gb

No safety, 40 player lobby.

[thick prairie]

that seems like storage still, did you specifically search for RAM?

[gray gate]

I was wondering, will vrchat be publish on play store and app store after the testing?

[crude temple]

I know, I was saying it because I completely missed the background

[mighty meteor]

Does this cause issues?

[median jolt]

play store yes, iOS app store is way later down the line

[crude temple]

I'm so mad that you won't tell me I'm gonna report you to customer service /j

[gray gate]

i tried to but i cant find it on my phone'

[thick prairie]

ah, unfortunate

[mighty meteor]

Just look up your phone model plus "ram"

[vital cargo]

Too bad I can't play VRC on my phone, I have a Google Pixel 3 with 4gb of RAM xD

[mighty meteor]

Pixel 5a is like $150 on ebay

Just sayin

[vital cargo]

I don't have much need for a new phone right now

[thick prairie]

Moto g stylus 5G (2022), with 5gb of ram using the boost. ever so slightly too low :’ )

[brave blaze]

This does not necisarrily work

Pixel 4xl has 6 gb but reports to the play store as having 5.4

[atomic turtle]

hi

[mighty meteor]

Oh interesting

[vale edge]

I am curious what is needed to actually consume all 6gb on a mobile device. I tried again and was only able to hit 3.1gb usage this time. No safety, big lobby.

[mighty meteor]

Are you running a custom OS?

[thick prairie]

probably just a cushion or something, safety precaution

[vital cargo]

Interesting that the Quest 1 has 4gb of RAM on it and vrc works

[mighty meteor]

Barely

[thick prairie]

at least, that’s my guess

[median jolt]

not anymore

[lusty hazel]

Oh god, my S9+ gets burning hot xD

[crude temple]

By golly that was hard to find

[mighty meteor]

Rip Q1

[lusty hazel]

It's literally so hot that I can't touch it...

[thick prairie]

oop

[vale edge]

Yeah. Fair. On bloated stock phones android can easily consume 2gb of memory alone.

[gray gate]

Will the developers make it compatible to any phones such as Samsung, LG, Google Pixel and more?

[crude temple]

https://imgur.com/a/5EJ5Fte

[mighty meteor]

Anything that has 6gb of ram should work

A semi powerful chip is a plus

[autumn peak]

ummm

[mighty meteor]

Huh

[vale edge]

Since when? Cuz I still play mine. Was on just the other night.

[vital cargo]

It is possible to run VRC if they send me apk files with cache?
Or does the game check the phone's properties at launch?

[mighty meteor]

I can't read that

[autumn peak]

i have 6gb i think

[mighty meteor]

Checks at launch

[median jolt]

as in, its deprecated, probably wont be stable for much longer

[naive bluff]

Is that a MiOS?

[vale edge]

Well yes. Course. But it does still work

[mighty meteor]

I was asking if you had installed a custom operating system, what phone are you using?

[naive bluff]

It's been so long since I've been on the up and up on custom firmwares.

[median jolt]

i suppose i should have said "not for long"

oh well

[mighty meteor]

A month or so I checked and I could join worlds but couldn't hear anyone

[autumn peak]

okay i think it's Android cause i have google store

[mighty meteor]

If you don't know you probably haven't installed one, but what phone are you using?

[gray gate]

for me im using samsung galaxy a12

[mighty meteor]

Calyx is really nice, I like it a lot

[hybrid tendon]

Guys, I have a question. So, I can see there's the FPS cap settings, but for now, VRChat can only run up to 60 FPS, while the cap is set to 120 FPS. I don't know if this is currently a bug or not

[mighty meteor]

I like not having to rely on google for stuff

[autumn peak]

vivo iqoo5 neo5

[naive bluff]

OxygenOS.

[hollow galleon]

Feedback about the mobile app
People have problems to hear me,

have earmuff off and 100% mic output volume and mic activation treshold 0%
also when i talk all other people are slighty muted (when pressed push to talk)

playing on a new samsung galexy A54

[autumn peak]

yes

[naive bluff]

...That's not OOS. ColorOS, maybe.

[orchid owl]

Is there a way to buy vrchat plus without going onto my oculus?

[slate loom]

Yeah, we're aware of this!

[naive bluff]

Steam?

[crude temple]

[Not directed at Sippbox, mostly ramble to self] I do wonder if it'll be disabled server side or app side, because if it's app side, people can just... not update

[brave blaze]

Welp apparently there is some other issue that keeps me from running it on a pixel 4xl other than ram XD

[mighty meteor]

"OriginOS"

[orchid owl]

I don't have a steam headset

[naive bluff]

Do you not have a PC?

[brave blaze]

Seems there's a lot of android power users in here 😉

[mighty meteor]

Wonder if there is a package missing in both Origin and Calyx

[hybrid tendon]

Ah oki. I was wondering if it's my phone to blame

[brave blaze]

What issue you guys getting

[orchid owl]

I don't have one to play vr on i use my quest 2

[autumn peak]

originos

[naive bluff]

Then your only choice is to put on your headset and buy it from there.

[mighty meteor]

Once you try to join a world we get this

Then you have to log in again for the same error message whenever the world loads

Same goes for default home

[brave blaze]

I don't even get the log in screen showing up on my cough totally stock cough pixel 4xl

[mighty meteor]

Lmao

Sucks

[autumn peak]

so originos can't play now

[brave blaze]

I mean, I am running the stock images ||minus one file||

[mighty meteor]

Seems to be that way, might be a workaround we don't know of yet

[brave blaze]

All I get is the vrc logo, splash screen then black

[crude temple]

Getty is more powerful than we first imagined

[mighty meteor]

Well now I have to know the file lol

[lilac delta]

How to do the face expressions?

[autumn peak]

that's upset

[lilac delta]

On pc we had the f keys

[brave blaze]

Lmfaooo

[mighty meteor]

I'm sure they'll get it eventually, this is heavy beta like they said. Android can be a mess sometimes so this stuff they're bound to run into

[orchid owl]

On oculus we used the controller trigger i think

[crude temple]

Smirk really hard with your camera turned on /j

[vale edge]

You can use an Xbox controller or bt keyboard as well

[brave blaze]

Oh crap it's Lucifer I haven't seen you in years

[orchid owl]

Lol

[crude temple]

He needs to be more careful, he hates fakes, pretty sure he nearly killed the last one

[lilac delta]

Oki lol but no way to do it on just the phone?

[orchid owl]

I don't know i still got to pay the plus sub to get in

[night siren]

I can't install the alpha, my phone is apparently not compatible.

[mighty meteor]

I'm interested to learn what the issue is, I'm sure its some security check they're doing but idk what. I do have MicroG running which should take care of most of that

[lilac delta]

Fair

[mighty meteor]

Prob doesn't have 6gb ram

[orchid owl]

Im sorry to hear that

[night siren]

I'm trying to check right now.

My phone is at Android version 13.

[brave blaze]

i suggest checking using cpu z (its an app)

[orchid owl]

I was lucky i actually bought a phone with 6gbs of ram

[mighty meteor]

I imagine Android is a PITA to develop for because of all of the variability

[brave blaze]

My phone HAS 6 gb but like 1/2 gb is dedicated to GPU

[wicked light]

my pixel 6 pro doesnt seems supported lol

[orchid owl]

I could of got a 8gb off brand phone

[brave blaze]

That is SUPER strange. apparently the 6 is supported

[mighty meteor]

Same haha, I really don't want to get a new one. I lose headphone jack and then have to go tensor

[hybrid tendon]

Does this mean android and quest users can use the same avatar or no?

[wicked light]

coul;;d be A13

[mighty meteor]

What kind of error?

[orchid owl]

I already lost that

[hexed iris]

VRChat is working quite well on the Galaxy Z Fold 3, it just gets really heated up 🔥

[mighty meteor]

Can you take a screenshot?

[orchid owl]

Samsung galaxy s21 fe

[night siren]

4 gigs of memory. Damn.

[wicked light]

i have a massive 12gigs of ram to play with and app dont work lol

[mighty meteor]

Pixel 5a, I hate the 6 series and above design. But I have to stay with a pixel since I use CalyxOS.

[warm oriole]

So with vrchat android needing vrchat+ is that atm or is the forever

[pearl mulch]

yes Android and Quest user share all the same content except for Android disabling very poor avatars

[orchid owl]

Whats calyx os?

[mighty meteor]

Just for testing!

[hybrid tendon]

Lol

[mighty meteor]

Privacy focused custom android

[warm oriole]

Oh 🥲

[mighty meteor]

Removes google applications for open source implementations

[orchid owl]

Has anyone got in a world yet because im iffy of paying for plus if the app doesn't work

[orchid owl]

Oh

[mighty meteor]

Its a way for the vrc team to get the game polished more before releasing to the public! It'll come eventually!

[warm oriole]

🥲

[orchid owl]

Smile

[warm oriole]

Kids

[orchid owl]

No tears

[icy knot]

I think I'm going to try installing Waydroid and seeing if it'll run in that

[open tinsel]

I was wondering why pressing select on my Xbox controller was causing the game to have little lag spikes until I opened my gallery and saw screenshots...

[brave blaze]

@orchid owl are you actually the one I knew back in 2018

[orchid owl]

Oh lol you took screen shots cool

[warm oriole]

Why so I can hear more screaming kids with worse mics

[mighty meteor]

I keep forgetting this is a thing, need to get it set up

[orchid owl]

One way to find out is this your main acc

[brave blaze]

Well, did you make wedding worlds back in the day

[orchid owl]

No

Then thats not me

[lapis briar]

cough cough

[brave blaze]

damn, too bad

[mighty meteor]

PC only worlds exist, so do private instances. Yea it will let more kids in, but also allows more people who might not be able to afford of hardware to play

[orchid owl]

No way

[mighty meteor]

Lmfao

[modern zinc]

TF?!?!

[hybrid tendon]

Switch lol

[mighty meteor]

Lmk if it launches into a world

[thick prairie]

lmao

[lapis briar]

Proof it do be installed

[autumn peak]

regret not reading this group message before i pay for plus

[warm oriole]

I was gonna do that oi

[lapis briar]

No point lol doesn't actually work atm

[mighty meteor]

Emojis lol

[lapis briar]

If I manage to get it fully functional I'll post about it here

[warm oriole]

Will they show up as android?

[orchid owl]

What doesn't work?

[autumn peak]

i will try it with my switch

[warm oriole]

Do u have a V2 ?

[lapis briar]

Vrchat can't actually launch

[lapis briar]

V1

[mighty meteor]

From the video seems like they will have a separate tag like quest but different

[modern zinc]

Wallpaper 🤨📸

[warm oriole]

Hmmm switch runs on arm64

[orchid owl]

Anyone joined a world yet on android vrchat?

[brave blaze]

Black screen?

[lapis briar]

Crashes outright

[brave blaze]

Bunch of people have

[mighty meteor]

Seems to be a few higher up

[warm oriole]

I see

[hybrid tendon]

And is the Performance on switch better because different specs
Overheating or not

[brave blaze]

ahh pixel 4xl it just goes to a black screen when the login screen should show

[orchid owl]

Oh okay thanks i thought people were having issues joining

[mighty meteor]

.

[lapis briar]

I had to mess with the package to even install it in the first place, it isn't capable of launching, although I will be poking around

[mighty meteor]

Some people are, some aren't

People with issues tend to talk more lol

[orchid owl]

Oh okay

[near mist]

What type of VRChat world would be able to run a mobile device?

[brave blaze]

quest

[hybrid tendon]

Or crossplatformed

[barren night]

Who wants to talk about Arab cheese?

[near mist]

Phones are worse than Quest

[icy knot]

How did you get the alpha to show up in Aurora?

[hybrid tendon]

Me with a apple be like -_-

[prime spoke]

managed to get bluestacks working than crashed cant get it to work anymore 😭

[warm oriole]

Depends on the phone

[mighty meteor]

Some, but also they only have to run in 2d

[mighty meteor]

Just looked up vrc

Well "vrchat"

[icy knot]

Are you signed into your Google account?

[mighty meteor]

Yeah I am, that actually might be it

I had to for my bank app

[brave blaze]

Aurora is how I got it to install on an 'unsupported' pixel 4xl, but get a black screen and cant actually load 😦

[hybrid tendon]

In my World (crossplatf.) on a Note 20 Ultra 5G, works very well

[mighty meteor]

Frick bank apps

[hybrid tendon]

Mf can I download it on my smart TV? It runs off Android os

[mighty meteor]

Aurora is great software, love it

[warm oriole]

Lol someone should run vrchat on the quest 2 with oculus tv

Like the android version

[mighty meteor]

Try it, why not

Nothing to lose

[brave blaze]

If it has 6+gb ram, probably

[icy knot]

Ah, it's not near the top of the results, had to scroll for a bit

[hybrid tendon]

Which worlds have you tested with it?

[mighty meteor]

Yep!

[hybrid tendon]

I have a cloud pc lol. But still.

[hybrid tendon]

Tested with my own World and Lucky Charms

[mighty meteor]

I was surprised how functional cloud PCs are tbh, I used Shadow for a month just to see how it worked

[hybrid tendon]

Yay more children to play on VRChat this sucks lol

[mighty meteor]

Now I just remote back to my home PC using VD if I want to play away from it lol

[hybrid tendon]

I USE SHADOW. it works amazing tbh

[warm oriole]

That's what I said

[near mist]

Same

[hybrid tendon]

I will try with Lucky Charms. Either way, could you try going to Udon Bird Sanctuary to see if there's anything unusual?

Anyone who doesn't have VRC+ I recommend you Steam Link.
Then you can play on Phone

[warm oriole]

Moonlight is better then steamlink

[mighty meteor]

Idk why I'm trying this tbh haha, I always have a laptop with me

[hybrid tendon]

I tested Moonlight, doesn't have Buttons i need

[mighty meteor]

I just find it cool

[hybrid tendon]

Yea, it's cool that I can play VRChat anywhere now

And i can now Sleep in VRChat without having my PC on all night

[mighty meteor]

Oh well, if you see any updates on this please @ me. I need to shower and sleep

[thin dome]

What are the device requirements for the app?

[slate loom]

https://help.vrchat.com/hc/en-us/articles/19616653355411-VRChat-Mobile-System-Requirements

[thin dome]

Thank you

[celest tendon]

Bro cheating

[crude temple]

Not going to @ because not a solution, but the only thing that I could potentially think of is that VRChat has temporarily cached your Mac address as someone who has used a VPN before?

[proud creek]

Yes.

[crude temple]

That is a really good Photoshop, even has the glare that's on the bevels on the game

[proud creek]

Its actually a PC it isn't a monitor or PS

[autumn peak]

where did you get this,i cant find it in my nintendo eshop

[crude temple]

Ah, I did a classic big dumb

[thin dome]

If the play store says your device isn't compatible with this version then I cannot play vrchat on mobile ever?

I think I don't have enough ram :(

[lapis briar]

cough cough

[thick prairie]

it’s not ever, it’s just not right now

[crude temple]

Potentially not ever, if they're taking away support from the quest 1, they'll do it with older phones too

[thick prairie]

well, yeah, there’s always the potential
