PSVR2 for VRC? Anyone know anything about that?

dry wraith
#

I know all that, I was hoping to find people who were tracking it as well so we could have a discussion on the topic.

cunning dagger
#

not sure what there is to discuss? you hook up a psvr2 to your pc (with an adapter) and use it with steamvr like you would any other headset

#

its completely official and supported

dry wraith
#

If you tried, if you heard about it, do you recommend it (why or why not), do you think they'll add support for the adaptive triggers, the haptic feedback, the eye tracking for games like VR Chat, is it better than the Quest 3 ect ect.

cunning dagger
#

i don't think i'd personally use it over a quest 3 given the lack of supported features

#

the eye tracking is one of the things that (at least currently) is not passed through to PC

dry wraith
#

The PSVR2 has a lot of different features compared to the Quest 2 and 3, features that could potentially work with VRChat. However much of that is speculation. Some say if Sony doesn't do it, the community will make a mod for it.

junior sluice
dry wraith
#

It's a pretty big difference man, the lenses and screens effect visual fedelity a lot. The PSVR2 also has track rings which can improve tracking above Meta's approximation tracking. And though it isn't currently enabled, the PSVR2 also has HDR capable screens. They're also OLED, which is huge.

#

I suppose for casual players that just want something that works for VR Chat, then maybe it doesn't matter so much. For other's it's a big investment, making the best possible choice for their needs, metters.

I might be more of a VR enthusiast then I realized.

I have another question, what are the copywrite laws of content uploaded to VRC?

Doesn't seem to be an issue to rip and port 3D models for anything, does the same go with use of music?

If I make a world and use a ton of copywrited music, is that A.O.K.? Is it courtesy to mention the name of the artist, or a requirement?

Maybe it's only ok if I'm not making money off it?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a horror experience world but forgot the name of it! Wonder if this rings a bell to anyone:
I remember it being PT inspired, though wasn't visually similar to PT beyond being set it an L shaped hallway. Pretty sure there were stairs at the start of the hallway but not quite sure.
The only moment I distinctly remember was an extra doorway/hallway appearing with a framed picture at the end (I think it was a portrait?). You'd go down the hall, there would be some kind of scare or noise, then when you turned back the picture in the frame had changed.
The world also didn't split you up like many horror worlds nowadays do, so you could go through it as a group.
I think I played it about a year ago, maybe longer, but I don't think it was newly published at the time.
Any input greatly appreciated!

coarse ocean
# junior sluice The Smile Room.

Thanks! I had a feeling it was the Smile Room but when I asked my friends they said that was set in a mall so I wasn't sure x) I guess it teleports you to the PT hallway at some point?

It feels like the most active people in the GC spend a lot more time here then in VRC

junior sluice
dry wraith
#

Why's that?

junior sluice
#

Lots of reasons. Some of them just don't play often as they used to, interact with the same people here than they would in game. Some measure of laziness, mayhaps. Some don't play anymore period, but enjoy the interaction.

dry wraith
#

I see the sense of that, but this place doesn't seem all that bump'n to me that it's enough to warrant wanting to be here so much when you're not actively apart of the community playing the game. I guess we all choose what to do with our free time.

junior sluice
#

It's precisely because it's not super active (aside from updates and outages) that it makes it easier to get to know others and communicate, as opposed to getting lost in a wall of text.

dry wraith
#

That makes sense, although the conversations leave a lot of be desired. Maybe that's because I'm old though.

jade lance
#

anyone know any vrchat worlds that let you do basic 3d modeling like in gravity sketch?

ruby needle
#

I believe such software exists but in VRChat, there's not really any way you could export that.

#

Dunno if anyone made a sclupt thingy

jade lance
#

damn

stray temple
karmic rose
#

There is a world that lets you sculpt a shader in the fashion of a pottery wheel and export that but it's very limited. Literally a pottery wheel but regardless lol

stray temple
#

but huh....SurRoom has pen with those function IIRC (maybe no more but worse check)

jade lance
#

i dont need to export it, i just want to do some mechanical modeling as doing it in blender has frustrated me even though i've been using it for 5 years

ruby needle
#

But why in VRChat specifically?

jade lance
#

so i can do it in vrc and have friends give input with me

junior sluice
#

I feel that there is probably an app in the app store that does this already and better, that you could stream.

Its true tho and honestly I hate those types of models that be having unrealistic body features 😭

#

Now don’t get me wrong they’re cute but like it’s creepy how the waste be so slim like the body type doesn’t have ribs

dry wraith
#

They're not about realism, just trying to look sexy. But on a game that's rated T? Really?

frank zenith
# dry wraith They're not about realism, just trying to look sexy. But on a game that's rated ...

even that is questionable. It's not even a hourglass shape anymore. The thighs are thicker than their torso most of the time too. Nothing about those proportions seems sexy. Not even in media that deals with those topics more professionally do you see those.

It's even worse when people call a normal proportioned female body underdeveloped because they are so used to seeing those models moving around all the time

dry wraith
#

I can only guess they really really want attention, but are trying to hard.

frank zenith
#

It's actually becoming more or less a social pressure deal. If you don't use what everyone else like them uses you are weird and have a hard time getting accepted into their circles/groups. Everyone uses similar models with similar proportions because of this to not stand out. The trend goes towards those shapes? Better "shape up" or get isolated.

Individuality and creativity is a no go in circles full of insecure people. And the worst part is that the younger playerbase who desperately tries to connect falls for this even harder because they really want to be a part of it all

Hi

dry wraith

frank zenith
# dry wraith Yeah, it's really toxic, and there doesn't seem to be a single thing in VRC that...

You find those people in newly released worlds or worlds of popular artistic world creators. Also Vrchess is a great place to meet nice and good people. Of course no one of those can really be found in for example the black cat or similar due to the climate there just being so insufferable.
The issue is that most newcomers get stuck in that toxic swamp though and become similarly toxic as that is the only way to be or get included in those communities.

dry wraith
#

Newcomers go to where the people are. The people are in the most popular worlds, the most popular worlds are toxic. It sounds like it feeds itself.

crisp epoch
#

Just being honest ppl are very creative in vrchat but can we just drop the e girl trend like some of the avis are cute as I said but then theres those avatars that gives you second hand thoughts and feel oddly creepy

#

And another sad thing is most of all the guys avatars are legit e boys

#

Honestly feel bad for the guys who just wanna dress casual and not wear all those piercings and unnecessary accessories

it depends on the head they use and whatnot

#

realistic heads freak me out, straight up anime heads look weird on those bodies, there's a middle ground where it's not uncanny

#

Honestly I was on an avatar hunt for so long trying to get a ā€œnot eboyā€ anime avatar and it’s so hard to not end up with some sort of too triangular, too thin, ā€œlittle boyā€ whenever browsing anime guys… there’s not much innovation in avatar choices when it comes to this issue

# random pollen ah i don't have the technical knowhow or the money for booth

Just uploading an avatar is suuuuuper easy. It's if you want to make changes to it that it can get more complicated. But you learn over time if you're motivated by what you want to change.
Also, Booth varies quite a bit in price, with some freebies. Most popular ones are $30-50 and you get hundreds of hours of use out of that $50

Ekoh, question for you.

junior sluice
#

hm?

dry wraith
#

I don't play VRC anymore, but when you did, how are you generally treated as a male mute?

junior sluice
#

I always had avatar gimmicks that made it fun or interesting. so ive always had good experiences when i dont feel like speaking, or overwhelmed by randoms.

dry wraith
#

Using full VR being real expressive huh?

junior sluice
#

Indeed, I had an avatar with a soundboard, an oujia board kinda thing, avatar dynamics that activated speech bubbles, etc. or just good ol' fashioned text box, but i was in half-body vr always.

dry wraith
#

Good stuff, I'm sure that really enhanced your interactions. The best mute I met so far was at Quick draw. Didn't say a word, but his expressive movements got the point across well.

junior sluice
#

ye. i have quite a few mute friends. only difference being, im selective and an ambivert and i can be quite talkative under the right circumstances.

I have never encountered such a thing. If that's the case and it is a feature, it's likely applied by the world creator intentionally.

I never stated it was an issue, only that it does exist.

sharp wolf
#

Im sure if it was on vrc itself, they would have said something no?

junior sluice

#

It goes along something like this:

This instance will be restarted due to its world age.

#

Similar to that

#

As a notification

sharp wolf
#

Yeah ive never had that message before

#

And as of recently ive been sleeping in vr too

plush sparrow

#

I dont even see a patch note on it

#

Maybe bad reading

ember tundra
#

Maybe the world got updated while you were in it

bitter bone
#

Normally pushing updates to a world while people are in them doesn’t change anything, they just get broken if a new player tries to join their instance and run the new code in their ā€œold worldā€

#

And most of the time it only breaks the person who joined, not everyone who’s already there

They actually added a button you can't hide anymore for that purpose, even if you're a VRC+ user šŸ˜›

sharp saddle
dry wraith
#

I'll look into it, I don't have VR though so it probably won't be all that fun, but maybe in the future, most VRC players are incredibly punchable, so I'm sure if it's properly fleshed out, it would be a really popular game on the platform.

karmic rose
#

Download speed has nothing to do with latency or performance of virtual desktop unless you're playing remote using a VPS.

What matters:

• computer being wired directly to your router
• headset distance from router
• router quality, such as it supporting MU-MIMO and similar tech
• channel interface

There are certainly settings for virtual desktop that can affect the performance of your stream however.

but no it's effectively an IRL music event, just hosted on the side thru VR to reach a much wider audience

dry wraith
#

No, I'm PC only, but even if I was, I'm not buying a ticket to pretend to be somewhere.

vocal shard
#

I've been. It's insane.

#

the worlds they use for it are custom built and it's a HUGE event

#

it's 15 bucks and it lasts an entire week

#

worth it for the amount of fun imo

dry wraith
#

I guess for some people, maybe if you have a group that's got the free time for it and is into that kind of thing. But I can't imagine it's much better than the free stuff which is around the year, like party House.

vocal shard
#

No it's so much better

#

mostly bc u don't have random people trying to come in and ruin the event, and the worlds host 80 people and are usually filled up

dry wraith
#

I guess changing that much money does keep out the less fortunate that can't afford it.

#

And the only way to pay means putting out form personal info, so few trolls would risk it. I'm sure that helps a lot, but I still don't think most people want to be that guy int he gif above without the conditions I meantioned above being met.

vocal shard
#

yeah its more fun with friends true

#

but its one of those things that if you're in the rave community its a week you mark your callender for

dry wraith
#

The Rave Community.....

junior sluice
# dry wraith The Rave Community.....

It's important to note it's not just music. It's a whole vr art installation and various panels and presentations. They also run charities, and have raised some decent money for a variety of causes.

#

The cost isn't meant to keep out trolls or the "less fortunate" there are costs associated with running the event as any other, for that matter. It's about sustaining the project and supporting it, should you choose to participate

dry wraith
#

I'm familiar with furry "charities", it's too oftenly political instead of being for something everyone of all countries supports, like cancer research, children's hospitals, disaster relief ect.

i've never seen a furry charity be "politically motivated" lol

#

so idk what reddit you're sourcing for that info but check again lol

fossil nova
#

is there a channel where i can ask ppl abt hardware i want to upgrade to an index but im not sure if its a good headset or not for my specific case right now..

vocal shard
#

not really from what ik

fossil nova
#

dam

vocal shard
#

but question is how big is your space you're playing and can you afford to drill holes into your walls for base stations

fossil nova
#

no no no i alreddy have base stations and knuckles i just need the headset and cable

vocal shard
#

honestly it can be kind of a money sink

fossil nova
#

thats just all of vr tbh

vocal shard
#

its an expensive asf headset that weighs almost double the Quest 2

fossil nova
#

hi

vocal shard
#

and if a cable breaks have fun spending an extra 75-150 on a new cable

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

ah yeah, then u might be good

#

I mean doesn't change what i said lol

fossil nova
#

ye

vocal shard
#

if ur cable goes out u still will have to pay

fossil nova
#

a pully just delayes when it breaks tbh lol

vocal shard
#

yea

#

My setup currently is Vive Pros, Quest 2, and Quest Pro controllers

fossil nova
#

im moastly worried abt somthin new happening in the space after i buy stuff

vocal shard
#

Works just fine and is completely standalone without needing to be corded up

vocal shard
#

and no holes drilled in the wall

#

Vive 3.0s are Standalone

fossil nova
#

ehh stand alone just isnt for me ive never realy liked it whether native or through airl link

vocal shard
#

Quest Pro controllers are also tracked standalone so u don't need to have ur hands in front of u to not lose tracking

#

ye makes sense

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

It usually relies on having a pretty beefy internet connection so

#

oh yeah very much so

fossil nova
#

but ive gotten used to being wired

vocal shard
#

World of difference especially when you throw OpenVR Smooth Tracking into the mix

#

so much more immersive and a lot less "jittery hands"

fossil nova
#

ye the thing is my pc was mid range like 5 years ago

#

so im lookin to upgrade that next

vocal shard
#

ah gotcha

#

Well if Money is no object, then time to beef up your pc to the max

fossil nova
#

and just having continuous calibration runnibng in the background and other programs 24/7 rlly take a tole on what i can do nowerdays in vrc

vocal shard
#

yeah gotcha. My Wife's PC has 96 gigs of ram and 6 tb of storage

#

She does things with Music so ye

fossil nova
#

i also rlly like the usb port on the index bc i like to tinker and ive achived face tracking witht the quest before but i have been using the defult quest headstrap

#

so it wanst comfortable

vocal shard
#

her pc is from CLX, custom built and pretty affordable

vocal shard
#

u should check em out, my pc is from them too

fossil nova
#

96 gigs of ram

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

they have a MASSIVE parts selection thing where u can build the entire PC from the ground up, check for compatible parts, everything

fossil nova
#

oh nice

vocal shard
#

they also got some next gen giga-nerd IT guys behind the shop that build the PC custom

fossil nova
#

that saves me like 6 hours of reserch lol

vocal shard
#

so its none of this "Factory built pc" bs

#

ikr? Saved me time too lol

#

Her pc with an RTX 3090, 96 gigs of ram, liquid cooling and 6tb of storage only cost her about 3.5 grand

#

so for the parts and the "beef" factor, def worth the price tag bc this thing runs like butter lol

fossil nova
#

im lookin at mabye a 3080Ti or somthin from the 50 series when that comes out but tbh my wholllee pc needs to be upgraded mabye minus the motherboard so i might just sell it and rebuild a new one from scratch

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

oh it runs everything u throw at it insanely smooth

#

she has like 70 chrome tabs open constantly and gets absolutely no drops lol

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

well her build was only like 3.5k, My build was only around 700 and it runs vrc smooth enough with everything I need it for

#

a wat

vocal shard
#

RTX 3050, 64gigs of ram, fan cooling, 1TB of storage

vocal shard
#

still runs vr

#

60ish

#

thats thru air link tho

hey im on a 1660 super could be worse

if I go wired I'm almost lossless

#

well ur on a laptop that's ur problem lol

#

but no I've not had a game not survive this computer yet

fossil nova

ye my motherboard is for intel ive honistly never looked into rysen cpu's before

vocal shard
#

tho I've yet to throw FNAF SB at it

#

rip

fossil nova
#

hm

#

what u do?

vocal shard
#

u must've done some nasty stuff to get a full ban like that lol

#

ok that makes sense

fossil nova
#

fair

vocal shard
#

Me not sweating bullets for having 70 accounts

#

I don't think that's smart to say in the official vrchat discord

#

i also don't think flexing the fact u bypassed a ban is smart lol

#

ah

#

eac is easy to bypass tho

fossil nova

hm

#

I mean if u can afford it, go for it

fossil nova
#

hmmmm

vocal shard
#

I mean the way I play it'd be a direct downgrade

#

but for u since u play cabled it'd be an upgrade

#

I mean I also have 2 extra battery packs for my headset and 3 Snap-On Charge packs for my trackers so I can spend up to 24 hours standalone in vr lol

fossil nova
#

nice

#

what ever happened to that index standalone addon kick starter??

vocal shard
#

its a kickstarter

#

that should tell u what happened to it

fossil nova
vocal shard
#

I mean I can pretty much infer that its a kickstarter scam. if it didn't get off the ground even with funding that's 90% of the time what happened

fossil nova
#

nah tho it got loads of support from what i remember

#

i take it they just never delivered

gleaming island
#

Why is vrc making avatar compatibility for quest even harder bruh, they already look like crap on their side and it's making it EVEN harder to convert

ruby needle
#

It looks like crap, if you put in no effort.

#

It looks totally fine if you accept that you aren't intented to have an avatar with multiple outfits.

gleaming island
#

No it looks like doodoo compared to what I'm seeing

#

Their quality is low enough as is

ruby needle
#

Because most creators don't actually optimize

#

And just do the bare minimum to make the PC avatar uploadable

#

Which is not how converting content properly works.

vocal shard
#

its smart to make the quest avatar side FIRST then you can add all ur funny haha toggles for the PC side

gleaming island
#

Yeah I'm aware, I just think it's a little inconsiderate to quest standalone they've been lowering the download size a lot for awhile now

ruby needle
#

Which is important, as there is still SO MUCH terrible quest content out there

#

that is just PC avatars uploaded with quest shaders

#

instead of actually optimizing it.

#

The mobile hardware is limited, there is only so much RAM / VRAM to work with and those dirty converts are hogging so much of it.

vocal shard
#

to think that it's a miracle that this game can even run on those glorified toasters, I say the download limit makes sense

gleaming island
#

I'm surprised it came to mobile

vocal shard
#

i mean its just using the same tech as the Quest build (mods feel free to correct me)

#

so since it runs on quest (which runs on android) it runs fine(ish) on mobile

gleaming island
#

How'd that go lol

vocal shard
#

looking at his video, doesn't look like it went well

Hey VRC devs, why did you lower the avatar file size limit!?

#

Just not cool.

cunning dagger
#

previous limits were way too high

limpid plaza
#

Opinion. They were fine, unless I can be given a justifiably good explanation. Cause this is extremely inconvenient cause now I can't use one of my avatars because I don't know how to fix the issue.

cunning dagger
#

why does an avatar need to be larger than the average world?

limpid plaza
#

According to the now stupid limit my Kudalyn Bird avatar is 100.68 over the limit and I don't know how to fix that because I'm not an avatar builder or an expert at unity.

ruby needle
#

recude texture sizes

limpid plaza
#

DOn't know how to do that.

ruby needle
#

especially if you use masks, masks can easly be 50%, 25% or even less

limpid plaza
#

Asking me to do something I don't know how to do.

ruby needle
#

see, not knowing is not an excuse to make terrible content

limpid plaza
#

How very fair to the player base.

cunning dagger
limpid plaza
#

LOLOL I don't have time ot learn

#

My work life keeps me to busy to do that.

cunning dagger
#

but you had time to learn everything else?

ruby needle
limpid plaza
ruby needle
#

Optimizing.
How to change texture sizes.

#

Stuff like that

#

Is part of making an avatar

limpid plaza
#

Dude I never do anything like that, I just buy an already made avatar and upload it.

ruby needle
#

And that's why limits are nesseary

#

because so do thousands of others

#

while it's super easy to make at least a minimal optimisation

#

and tweaking some texture resolutions

#

(which are mostly the main factor for sizes going ham)

limpid plaza
#

Yeah well the devs are wrong, casuse now I can't use this avatar anymore that was premade because I can't spend the time learning how, so thanks devs, thank you very freaken much for not giving a darn about the players.

ruby needle
#

You can

#

reduce some texture sizes šŸ™ƒ

limpid plaza
#

What are you not getting? I don't know how to freaken do that and I can't spare the time to learn, I literally can't.

#

Literally spend 12+ hours working.

#

I can't spare the time.

static forge
#

Puts no effort into learning
It's the dev's fault.
šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

ruby needle
#

The time you complained here would have been enough to change some settings and have it done cirBox

#

No time is also not the dev's fault.

#

And not an excuse to make badly optimised content.

limpid plaza
#

Yeah well they aren't being considerate with this change.

limpid plaza
static forge
#

There are community addons that do almost all the work for you if you put in the tiniest bit of effort. That includes reducing texture sizes.

ruby needle
#

And in fact, VRChat mentioned they'll look into making their own within the SDK too.

#

So.

limpid plaza
#

Assuming I can even understand any of it or even have the necessary programs to do it.

ruby needle
#

You managed to upload an avatar

limpid plaza
ruby needle
#

This is neither

#

So.

limpid plaza
#

Prove it.

ruby needle
#

pick any texture you use in the asset editor... and change the resolution on the side cirBox

cunning dagger
#

select texture
change texture size in the inspector
click apply
done

#

and then repeat that for other textures

static forge
limpid plaza
limpid plaza
ruby needle
#

You keep complaining and yapping and excusing your self with time.
While you could already have fixed the problem.

static forge
limpid plaza
#

I'd do it if I knew how.

ruby needle
#

Or look up a tutorial, if you need a visual guide

cunning dagger
#

hey i know a good one

ruby needle
#

There is many tutorial flavores out there to pick from.

#

Or if you don't want to.
Use a community asset that does all of that automatically for you.

#

The issue is not the limit, it's the mindset of a lot of people.

limpid plaza
#

I mean if they have an issue with avatars being bigger then world we can expect all our avatars to just one day be unusable.

cunning dagger
#

that's a massive leap in logic

limpid plaza
#

I mean the average world size I see is like 200 MB.

cunning dagger
#

for good reason...

#

avatars are portable, worlds are not

limpid plaza
#

Why allow even a 300 MB avatar then?

umbral reef
#

They dont anymore šŸ™‚

limpid plaza
#

They'll just lower this 500 MB limit.

cunning dagger

ā–¶ Play video
ruby needle
#

which would be more than fair to do cus 500MB is RIDICULUS for avatars.

limpid plaza
#

Unity is telling me that my avatar's uncompressed size is 600.86 currently and the limit is like 500MB

ruby needle
#

It's very good that you can not upload that cirSlain

umbral reef
#

Like your complaining that your laziness should be enough reason to justify other people's worse performance
There are full games out there that have a smaller size then just your one avatar

limpid plaza
#

Kudalyn's Bird avatar has always been large, in VRC it shows that my bird is 200 MB when people load it.

static forge
# limpid plaza They'll just lower this 500 MB limit.

They may, to be honest. Assuming everyone is at the cap, you're looking at 16 avatars to fill a common video card's memory buffer before it starts offloading to the much slower system RAM. This isn't even taking into account the world and other things that are using a GPU's memory.

ruby needle
umbral reef
ruby needle
#

And decent amount of creators also don't give a damn on optimisation, which still doesn't make that content a thing that has to be supported.

limpid plaza
ruby needle
#

you realise that with your avatar, you could load about 8 and a decent powerful desktop GPU is already full in VRAM

#

Right?

#

RAM and VRAM, very different.

#

And on the Quest, there is only 8 gb that are shared for everything.

static forge
limpid plaza
limpid plaza
ruby needle
umbral reef
cunning dagger
umbral reef
#

Like stardew valley, the full game is just a tiny bit above the limit right now.
It would still be lower then your avatar šŸ™‚

#

And thats made by one person who didnt even try to squeeze all performance out of it
Just by doing some basic best practices for making games

ruby needle
#

In a lot of cases it's already solved by... not everything needs to be 4k or even freaking 8k textures.

#

and especially not masks.

static forge
limpid plaza
#

I just worry that downgrading the avatar is gonna make it look like crud. A friend who had to fix his bird said it looked blurry after he made it acceptable to the system.

umbral reef
ruby needle
#

or had 20 outfits

#

which is also wrong to have

limpid plaza
#

The bird comes with no outfits.

umbral reef
#

Size of avatars has nothing to do with looks
An 1K texture can look leaps and bounds better then a 64K one, for sure within VR

ruby needle
#

Also the quality preset makes a difference

#

sometimes high quality but half size looks just as good or even better

#

and any kind of emission mask or so can be 50% or les or original res

#

25% or even 12,5% work just fine most of the time

limpid plaza
#

The avatar always did have a lot on it, the problem is I wouldn't know what to remove, or how to remove it to achieve the results I want without negatively impacting the functioning of the avatar or the looks.

#

So I'm sorry for my freak out just this is a massive blindside that I don't know how to fix.

static forge
#

VRChat at this time has no limit on the amount of avatars you can upload. Use that to your advantage and don't pack an entire wardrobe into the same avatar.
Try to limit each avatar to 1-2 outfits max and you'll go a long way.

ruby needle
#

The thing is.
Even if you where the perfect optimiser and already squeezed everything possible out there you can....
Then the avatar quite frankly is not real time game designed and not to be used for VRChat.

#

But you can very likely just push some buttons, and be on the game using your avatar again...

#

If you start accepting that's how it is and go change those settings cirBox

limpid plaza
ruby needle
#

Yes, try it out

cunning dagger
#

check out the video i sent earlier as well

limpid plaza
cunning dagger
#

yep

limpid plaza
#

Sigh

Again I'm sorry all just......things like this being such a blindside and my very long work hours preventing me to have much time to spend learning anything other then basic unity knowledge (IE just how to upload or adjust blendshapes or even adjust the size of the various armatures) can really really suck x.x

umbral reef
#

Tbf those things are more complex then most small optimization steps out there
For sure with all the tools people have made to do the more complex things

ruby needle
#

Tere is a looooooooooooooot you can do if you truely wanna optimize

#

but changing your texture sizes to reasonables ones

#

is stupid easy, and in many cases already sooooooooooooo much improvement

cunning dagger
limpid plaza
cunning dagger
#

it isn't perfect, but it can get a lot done

ruby needle
#

However, you'll need to do the base move and get it below upload block limits so the button works.

static forge
cunning dagger
#

I love d4rk but it rarely makes sense in my case since i manually optimize, at best it knocks down my material or mesh count by 1 lol

Side note, how do I check an avatars file/uncompressed size without going through the upload phase?

static forge
#

Do a build and test. Not 100% sure if it shows in the console or not, but you can also check it in VRChat under the SDK section of the avatar menu.

limpid plaza
#

There's an SDK section?

#

@static forge Where do I find that? Cause I don't see it.

twilit yacht

Raise your hands if you like pizza

I also recommend added --watch-avatars to the launch arguments - any time the SDK test avatar you're wearing is updated, it automatically reloads

I'm curious, how difficult is manual optimization? I'm still new to dealing with Unity and the like but the concept seems so simple, yet many people don't do it. Is it not just deleting unrendered/unused polygons, meshes, etc? I know there are other more advanced culling one can do as well, but is the general lack of optimization more of a lack of skills/ease of access to use Blender and Unity from folks? I just don't get it.

if you're wanting to just run the PC version and dont care about being able to not use VR you'd could got for the cheapest option IMO and get a Raspberry Pi they're super cheap and from testing myself are able to run the game at 13-14 frames with a few other users in a lobby (and model shown if their content is actually optimized)

#

but most PC models (and sometimes worlds) dont have a whole lotta care put into their optimization process so you'd need to buy a pretty pricey and beefy laptop/tower to get a nice running experience that also lets you run VR

So perhaps this may be the better channel to ask it in

#

So I have Steam VR setup, 4 Lighthouses, Index, 7 Trackers (3 Steam, 4 Tundra), Tundra attachments for all those, with another Steam tracker on the way and the Tundra store Chest strap. And I had 2 SW4 Tundra Super Dongles

#

I recently (while ordering the chest tracker) just broke one of my SW4's, and I happened to have 3 Steam Dongles so I can tecnically keep using my setup but it would be 4 trackers on the SW4

#
  1. I believe I've seen the SW4's are not very good at actually holding 4 trackers (As I had tracking issues pretty consistantly and tried to only do 3 on each), is this accurate?
#
  1. There isn't anything better than the SW4/Multple Steam Trackers in one USB coming out or already out? I was looking at the Tundra USB hub they are selling and debating if its worth getting and more individual steam trackers rather than a combo chip
#
  1. Can the Index headset not connect more than just the 2 controllers to it? I swore it could connect more than just 2 but the steam software seems to be locking me to just controllers only

Good point actually, thanks!

#

I'll do that tomorrow once I'm more awake

#

Feels like it'd take a while to answer this one though, as it's kinda niche to people who are using mixed tracking solutions and have more then 3 point tracking.

ocean violet
#

Oh its all lighthoused based so I think its standard steam tracking rather than mixed*

#

But I do agree its niche since the SW4 isn't a common device

#

Also the tech/recommendations behind lighthouse and steam tracking is kinda broad, also 11 point tracking ain't common either so perhaps there are more issues I need to be concerned about

#

What... what?

#

There are a lot of things I said that could be questionable

#

Could you be more specific

#

It could be amazement at 11 point tracking, could be that you disagree that it is not mixed tracking due to mixing Tundra's and the Vive pucks, could be my comment of niche being an understatment

I don’t have my trackers yet, but I’ve helped a few people in the past to get theirs running, so I can give some answers to the questions I guess.

  1. afaik, the tundra dongles often have issues pairing the advertised amount, but if you contact their support, Iā€˜ve heard that they send you an extra steamvr dongle.
  2. unfortunately no, its either tundra or htc
  3. The index headset only has 2 dongles built in for the controllers
ocean violet
#

Or just the standard 1 for 1 HTC Steam tracker dongles

broken plover
#

No, only the single dongles that come with trackers

ocean violet
#

Ahhh

broken plover
#

Me with an htc vive from 2016: erm

ocean violet
#

I didn't know I could/should contact Tundra support about their trackers being iffy d_d'

#

I just bought 2 more individual Steam dongles from Tundra welp

#

"God of Occulus" certainly seems fitting given your current questioning

ocean violet
#

(Buying extra single trackers when I didn't need to I could have just yapped at their support)

#

Sidenote also: I did get to see inside the SW4 dongle, 4 radio's inside a tiny PCB no wonder it had problems

Maybe back in the days of the cv1 but no thanks, I don’t want lord zucc to be in my house virtually KEKW

Ye fair, we'll see how all the new crap I bought works (or if I can get my friend to fix the SW4 I stepped on)
