Finna get a new pc it has a Ryzen 9 9050X3D and a 9070xt Raydon graphics card does anyone have this build for vr?

[halcyon tapir]

I have worse so yours should work.

[slender yew]

I would recommend trying something like Camo Studio to use your phone as a webcam for your computer. I am not sure how well that would work with VRChat's built-in tracking although the image quality from even a somewhat modern smartphone will be way better than most webcams on the market.

[unkempt phoenix]

I recognise you !... Minecraft... Lifeboat ??

that's the best thing to do, simple and clean

don't waste your time and energy for such blatant things, ask simply report and move on

yeah

[full cove]

How do I change my buttons on quest

[sterile bay]

is vrchat losing enough money they are adding a micro transaction store?

[sterile bay]

I think that has to be done via the quest overlay right? I don't think vrchat has options

[rough ginkgo]

Yes

[light pilot]

they gotta pay off those investors somehow

[weak bone]

I don't entirely hate the idea of the store but man those prices are sky high for what you get. Like, you could either buy two companion pets, a portal model, and some stickers... or you could buy Silksong for the exact same price.

or just a whole avatar for VRC for that matter.

It's almost as if it's an optional cosmetic that you can choose not to buy

theres alot of assumptions to unpack sir Einstein

and i wasnt asking for an autobiography

[unkempt phoenix]

hold up there

[sterile bay]

Alright I'll say in all fairness that makes sense - their original model wasn't profitable and they need to adapt since it's costing more and more

[unkempt phoenix]

don't waste your time on this kind of stuff, block them and let it go 🌠

i was bragging?

how genuinely slow are u?

im u are 12 year old cosplaying as an adult?

oh they're gone

[ember tundra]

[unkempt phoenix]

so what ? doesn't proove anything

like i said, toxicity has a price

[lofty whale]

what are u on about?

😭

prove anything of what?

[unkempt phoenix]

"No matter. It doesn't make a difference to me. It's all the same."
"I'm content to feign ignorance."

[lofty whale]

i think u may be more schiz than suuol

either way, im layering my hair with scissors and its v satisfying

[mental shuttle]

well that's sad... I really like that they added a shop but the prices and the cost of the credits are too high... it's digital too so shouldn't be.

not only that but they do the weird thing with the uneven and non-custom amounts you have to buy...

though they did price the companion bundle at 1200, the same as the amount you can buy. that's nice I guess. orz

[raw schooner]

the candy codex is basically useless if you arent able to buy both the companions

like why make the box free but the companions priced? Isn't that basically useless. Imo I think the companions shoulc be free as well or at least lower priced

[remote kelp]

Because you can't collect your own candy

You have to collect it from other people

[raw schooner]

vr chat outage in the south dakota area

[storm mica]

So vrchat...clears throat mind telling why you made ANOTHER update that already exist on booth and gumroad

[valid shadow]

Why were you created? Humans already existed before you.

[modern bramble]

its like saying “why tie your shoes if you can wear slip ons” 😭

[devout tangle]

why does doordash exist when you could already drive to a restaurant and pick up food yourself?

also you dont need to roleplay here

[young echo]

no

[shadow field]

The most fakest shit ive seen all day for a new account made today

You think where stupid here?

[eager spindle]

6 kids goddamn

[shadow field]

I just assume bec most people who have new accounts are scammers and mine is made in 2019 who in there right mind used an old account for that

[raw fulcrum]

If you pay for a snack in a vending machine and it drops 2 candy. You are legaly forced to call the number on the machine and tell the owner what happend because it would be illegal to just keep the second candy without asking.

[wise flame]

hey yall

[crystal epoch]

Except the guy you call will be like "thanks for letting us know, keep the extra" lol.

[raw fulcrum]

Yes.

This is how you need to deal with it here in germany.
Is this also a rhing in the us? Or dp noone cares?

Bcs in germany there are security cameras everywhere.

[crystal epoch]

Honestly dunno, I basically never purchase from those things.

[raw fulcrum]

Just want to know the law.
Not that you will get a letter in your mailbox, because a security camera videotaped you how you got 2 candys by only paying once on a vending machine.

[storm mica]

Honestly i all that too. Driving services are too expensive. You be saving money even with the total of gas used

[sour magnet]

The US to my knowledge nah whenever it happened to my candy or chips i kept the extra chips and no one told me anything

This is a grey area case because is not your fault the machine malfunctioned and gave you 2 snacks and realistically no one is gonna waste their time doing allat because almost every case they just tell you to keep it. The best you can do is notify maintenance of the building

Hi

[raw fulcrum]

The us is so much more chill sbout duch things. In germany they want you to call a number and wait in a hotline or you are at your own risk.

[sour magnet]

A witch-hunt over a snack sounds a little too overreactive

[jade quarry]

In high school someone figured out that the vending machines could read any mag strip on a card and it wasn’t connected and I a live server so you could swipe the card and get anything

It took like 2 months for them to catch on and boy howdy he had to pay for everything

[spark heath]

I’m not accepting your friend request you clank

[remote kelp]

My high school had something similar. The snack vending machine always (for whatever reason) kept spinning for way longer than it should've so it dispensed two or 3 different things when you pay for 1

People would put in a dollar and get 3 dollars worth of food. And since there wasn't cameras next to the vending machine (bc it was right outside the Gym locker room) they didn't know who it was that was "stealing" the snacks

[spark heath]

When I was in 5th grade we got a vending machine with a conveyor belt and we quickly found out that if you blocked it from dispensing the drink it would refund your money so kids would just keep using it to get multiple drinks for a buck, that fun lasted about a month before staff caught on

[lofty whale]

-# clanker

[valid shadow]

Back in high school I paid 2$ for an apple juice, the whole machine broke and the whole content fell, I took my back pack, filled it up, and ran.

I'm now being sentenced with 25years in prison.

Welcome in the year of 2025 🔥

Not like back to the future predicted lol

just spent the last 2 hours trying to get all my vr gear working since its been like 3 months since i've played vrc

immediately am greeted with half the internet down 😭

[inner ridge]

Huh, why did it take 2h to get your vr gear working *confused*

[long gazelle]

It would make sense that the 5th largest company by market cap would own that much infrastructure.

[inner ridge]

I just open slimevr, start my trackers, put on my straps, put on the trackers, put on my headset, connect to pc and this takes 5-10 minutes

i join home, calibrate and i am ready to go

[ivory relic]

headset wasnt connecting to my internet, base station was flashing red, controller apparently didnt charge

[inner ridge]

ah shit

happens to the best of us lol

[ivory relic]

basically in the 3ish months i wasnt using my vr gear half of it decided it was gonna have hella issues

[inner ridge]

Being able to hot swap my AA batteries of my quest controllers 🔥

[ivory relic]

unfortunately cant do that on the quest pros

miss being able to tbh

my base station scared tf out of me blinking red tho

like 90% of the time that means its permanently dead

[inner ridge]

Sometimes one of my trackers goes bad and i have to factory reset it. Usually fixed the issue though. Then i just gotta put in the wifi creds again and i am ready t ogo

I got third party slimes from somatic vr. Batch 4

what's everyone up to while AWS/Cloudflare dies? Personally I'm working on some presentations for uni

[low spruce]

anyone having any luck loggin back in? i saw someone said it worked for them

[wooden fog]

might work if you try a million times over, but its a major outage by either AWS or Cloudflare

[celest adder]

Who lost their VRChat+ due to the maintenence?

[wooden fog]

Nobody

[low spruce]

i literally got it yesterday too for the first time in about a year

[young forge]

its a visual bug

[low spruce]

vrc+

[wooden fog]

If you don't see your VRC + status, its mostly likely because AWS/Cloudflare are down. This means many APIs cant call to check the status of things, like your account details :)

[low spruce]

the thing that tweaked me out was i tried to sign in on the website and it wouldnt work then i did reset password and it said "something went wrong"

[karmic rose]

Don't need to fuss with anything. Just wait.

Patience

[low spruce]

i did that before i came to this discord tbh. i had no clue what to do but i guess its just maintanence

[left comet]

My pc is ever so lovely black screening onto of everything that is currently happening with AWS

[wooden fog]

Cloudflare says there is regular maintenence, which may cause some traffic issues. However, AWS is down itself which means cloudflare services are probably getting stressed as hell right now while everyone swaps to apps/websites/acitivities that use that instead 😅

to be entirely honest, if you just find good commuities rather than public hopping youll be fine.

[fleet cave]

any social game is inherently going to have a degenerate side unfortunately but ive met some of the best people of my life playing this game

[vital dune]

https://tenor.com/view/petty-parker-smoke-snoop-dogg-homer-simpson-disappear-gif-17093677

[barren whale]

Cheers fellas, I was drinking with friends but now I'm drinking alone?!?!?

[wooden fog]

join a pool/game night group, or activity-related group and youll be just fine.

[left comet]

100%

[vital dune]

take a shot for me gangy

[minor tangle]

yeah, imma guess 90% of public lobbies are filled with kids screaming slurs...

[barren whale]

bless king

[knotty gyro]

furrys are the most randomized fair warnin

[wooden fog]

VRCFaceTracking has a nice community for meetups,
there are plenty of casual drink/smoke groups if you like that, and plenty of game nights for communities like booth/furries/etc.

[left comet]

on weekends yeah, school nights they are less common

[fleet cave]

yeah there's a channel up there for community servers and its easy to find groups with your interests by just browsing groupPublic instances

[wooden fog]

yeah

[fleet cave]

youre welcome in my community too for that matter #ad

[static thorn]

Gotta sift through a lot but I found friends I’ve had for over 6 years now

[wooden fog]

cough

[vital dune]

a lot of the instances are age gated though so its not bad during certain hours of the day

[left comet]

ive been meaning to dump my server there

[fleet cave]

hey mind ur business

[minor tangle]

i heard bout that... too bad its behind a paywall...

[wooden fog]

OH, cant forget the music/dj events. must go to one of those at least once in your time on vrchat @minor tangle

[barren whale]

Go to a real rave

[wooden fog]

theres techno, house, emo, retro, anything you want

[minor tangle]

oh? im a dj irl so would be neat to see

[wooden fog]

i have, several. and i still enjoy vrchat events.

[fleet cave]

I actually threw a dj event/pop-up this weekend, was a lot of fun with a decent turn out

[thick viper]

i would love to get my age verfied but when i did it told me it failed so i had to smit a ticket but now i goda wait for someone to respond to me then told me it is limted staff soo yeah nothing much i can do

[vital dune]

Its worth not seeing minors hitting on me 😭

[wooden fog]

i will admit the dj scene has its drama, but if you just care about the music and not people too much its nice. been around in it for 2-3 yrs now

[left comet]

i havent been abe to go to a rave since i moved and it makes me so mad, my wifi is just too bad to be able to run them 😭

[merry gyro]

public hopping is so bleh but if you're lucky you can sometimes find really good groups, but I meet a lot of people nowadays through mutual friends

[minor tangle]

so...
Pros:
not having ppl ruin my CDJ by putting drinks on the table
Cons:
drama

[wooden fog]

you can use the website vrc.tl (vrc timeline) to find active events with direct links to their vrchat groups, websites, and discords.

[fleet cave]

I've been floating around the dj-sphere's outer rim for a bit now and if you ignore the drama, which comes inherently with social games, it's a lot of fun finding out people's different styles and such

[wooden fog]

yup and yup

again, vrc.tl is a godsend

[minor tangle]

eh, i grew up around mw2 search and destroy lobbies, got tough skin 🙂

[barren whale]

The ravesphere on VRC is full of clout chasing and egos

[fleet cave]

everyone has like their own style with dj'ing and that really shines through in combination with their models being uniquely them

[barren whale]

it's lame as shit

[wooden fog]

psyapple, a JP psytrance event is happening in 4 hours

[fleet cave]

everyone has an ego it comes free with your consciousness

[wooden fog]

i just go and play for the music man. if you dont care about people its fine

[safe meteor]

What's wrong with VRChat now...?

[minor tangle]

more into DnB, jump-up, and dubstep tbh

[wooden fog]

AWS outage affecting half the internet

[safe meteor]

(Can't get on lobby...)

[wooden fog]

plenty of DnB and dubstep people on vrc, its a massive part of the scene

[fleet cave]

vahv's whats your genre's again

you play that animal shit

[wooden fog]

dont ask, its just noisy bullshit 🤣

[minor tangle]

nah im intrigued, what you play?

[fleet cave]

yeah its just noise but it gives me energy

[wooden fog]

my "normal people" music its 90's breakbeat/jungle tho

[wooden fog]

uptempo hardcore, think lil texas, equal2, barbaric records, etc.

[safe meteor]

I see

[wooden fog]

Defqon1 type stuff

[minor tangle]

oh, bit too hard for me then

[wooden fog]

yeah, my "normal" music is 90s breakbeat

i love music i can do footwork to

[minor tangle]

cant go wrong with that

my "not normal" people music is east european hardbass

[wooden fog]

oh hell yeah

i love hard house / hard bounce

[sharp ginkgo]

hey guys just hiding from the war in gen 1

[minor tangle]

heard of uamee?

[wooden fog]

totally fine, welcome

[fleet cave]

east eu hardbass has that special kind of soul you can only feel if you have finished a bottle of vodka in a night

[wooden fog]

no, actually, i look it up

oh wait, i have seen this before

[minor tangle]

it makes me wanna steal a mig-17 and conduct airstrikes on [Redacted country]

[sharp ginkgo]

everyone there is so mean to each other

[minor tangle]

yeah i love his style of hardbass

[fleet cave]

country that shall not be named

[thick viper]

whos beeing mean?

[sharp ginkgo]

i'm sad because i had just made a friend while i was on desktop, told them i'd get on vr and suddenly half the united states decides to collapse

[fleet cave]

voldemort type beat

[fleet cave]

its half the entire world actually even worse

[minor tangle]

fuckaroundandfindoutistan

[sharp ginkgo]

well the epicenter is in the us east coast im pretty sure

[minor tangle]

yeah half of cloudflare servers are down too

[wooden fog]

cus of regular maintainence

[wooden fog]

yup, which explains why i died 2 ours before everyone else.

[minor tangle]

nah, on their system status it says some issue with "device posturing"

[wooden fog]

i live right by the epicenter :/

[fleet cave]

yeah but according to vahv's supreme brain the internet essentially stems from the us

[wooden fog]

yes, arpanet.

[fleet cave]

so if the roots of the tree get fucked the entire tree is borked

[wooden fog]

aka the birth of the internet

[minor tangle]

nah yall wrong, the internet obvs stems from the middle of the ocean in dr doofenshmirz's secret underwater bunker

[thick viper]

i think they disabled reactions in the other chat btw..

[fleet cave]

they did

[minor tangle]

it was started by the internetinator

[wooden fog]

as they should

[fleet cave]

we still got em because we're a well behaved functional bunch

[thick viper]

i honerstly dont blame them

[wooden fog]

ahh, perry the platypus...

[minor tangle]

perry gonna save us fr

[fleet cave]

the internet goes down-inator

[wooden fog]

crazy to think TCP/IP was made standard in 1982, and we still use it today.

[minor tangle]

ddosinator

[thick viper]

that is crazy vahv

[wooden fog]

the internet is pretty old now and that why we get issues like running out of IP addresses lol

[lilac oracle]

is stuff still down

[thick viper]

yes smoo

[barren whale]

Tupper owes me a 6 pack of modelo

[wooden fog]

yes, AWS and half the internet is

[pulsar trellis]

https://www.cloudflarestatus.com

[wooden fog]

ETA for update, 15m. ETA for fix, more than 1 hour

[fleet cave]

its been a while since ive run into tupper

[thick viper]

thanx for the update vahv

[wooden fog]

its not cloudflare, they are just doing regular maintainence, its AWS.

[fleet cave]

i wanna complain about things he has no internal relations to again personally, simply a must, at the top of my pyramid of needs really

[lilac oracle]

so long

[wooden fog]

last time i talked to tupper i trapped him in heavy containment in SCP secret lab for 30 minutes to keep him safe from the 049 zombies

then i told him id come back and save him... i died.

but then i respawned as chaos and saved him anyways

[fleet cave]

i dont think ive ever spoken to tupper sober

[minor tangle]

btw, whats the population split between kids, furries, chronically online e-daters and normal ppl on here?

[fleet cave]

varies on the phase of the moon

[thick viper]

i have no idear paradis i just treat others how i wanna be treated

[minor tangle]

im just asking so i know what to expect thats all

[surreal breach]

too many

[wooden fog]

omg hi ori

[surreal breach]

hiiiii

[wooden fog]

lovely to see you

[fleet cave]

in reality it does actually vary depending on the days i guess, id say there's a fair balance somewhat between all the groups except for that "normal" people arent a thing really

[surreal breach]

same to you vahv

[minor tangle]

so far my only interraction with it would be yt vids but i know better than to just trust the over-hyped sensationalist moments

[thick viper]

thisis true oath

[fleet cave]

if you stay out of publics you wont run into kids a majority of the time

[craggy totem]

Is the issue with vrchat fixed

[wooden fog]

lmao im just reading the downdetector page and someone said "ASL?" the response was:
"I think american sign language is still working, idk tho"

[fleet cave]

stick to communities that enforce 18+

[thick viper]

no

[bitter bone]

lmao

[fleet cave]

omg hiiii friend

[minor tangle]

nah, cant throw up gangsigns either

[surreal breach]

hiiiii friend

[thick viper]

LMAO

[wooden fog]

"Why did the chicken cross the road"

"please fix this"
Reply from Amazon Web Services: "nah"

[wooden fog]

"Just when i was about to buy some rope, ts goes down"

NAH

that shit is vile

forumposters are insane

[surreal breach]

theres so much going on in the other chat

[wooden fog]

"ugh i dont wanna read ;("
"crack open a book we'll be here for a while"

[minor tangle]

i just saw one saying "AWS down and all of my company's back end doesnt work... back to beating my meat"

[fleet cave]

image boards are even worse its like its own kind of hell

[wooden fog]

xD

[surreal breach]

thats wild

[wooden fog]

this is why i dont use them.

[fleet cave]

i used to...

back in my day....

[wooden fog]

you dont even wanna know the replies on the comment that says "this outage may last 6-7 hours"

[minor tangle]

"is it chinese attack on AWS? scientology forums are down"

[sharp ginkgo]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-blown-away-blown-back-gif-22009589

[fleet cave]

oh no whatever will the world do without scientology!

[sharp ginkgo]

man

[thick viper]

they still going nuts in the other chat i peecktd and regardted it

[wooden fog]

"sad day for the unemployed"

hahahah

[sharp ginkgo]

the vrchat website seems to work fine

[wooden fog]

of course

[minor tangle]

its the login servers

[calm mountain]

Rip

[thick viper]

what i found a little ironic is i was able to get on my mobile

[minor tangle]

oh, they back...

[fleet cave]

yeah but then you're on mobile and who would want that really

[minor tangle]

just managed to log into the website

[wooden fog]

"I was hard-core table lamp shopping... WAS!"

[thick viper]

noidear it has my money in my moble?

[sharp ginkgo]

still a blue screen on vrchat

might be slowly rolling out fixes

[wooden fog]

"Damn Jeff Bezos doesn’t want me to hit 15k"

[thick viper]

yeah i can comferm the website is working fine

[fleet cave]

i always fuck up and forget to check the discord for outages and then i go through all the trouble shooting only to find out it was all wasted and i need to reintroduce all my configs because i reinstalled like a complete and utter ape

🥀

[surreal breach]

pain

[sharp ginkgo]

dude fucking same

[minor tangle]

yeah probs only just coming back up, gonna probs try it out tomorrow then since servers gonna be overcrowded with ppl trying to flood back into their gooner caves

[sharp ginkgo]

i did a clean wipe of everything thinking it was a problem on my end and now all my settings are fucked

[thick viper]

it isnt you felix

[fleet cave]

It's actually not that bad post outage

[sharp ginkgo]

yeah i wish i knew before i wiped everything clean lol

[merry gyro]

I deleted everything too thinking it was my end 😭

[fleet cave]

I was overdue a reinstall and cache relocation anyways whatever huff

[thick viper]

yeah sometimes even reports are slow to come in to update aslong as you have things in the cloud you be able to put everything bk in

[minor tangle]

oh? btw how does it work with Full body? got a mocap suit from my old job so wanted to see if itd track properly

[barren whale]

Bezos doesn't want me to be cute

[wooden fog]

i should clear my cache rn

[sharp ginkgo]

this

[sharp ginkgo]

have fun

[wooden fog]

theres probably some sort of third-pary application or github program that would let use reuse mocap suits for steamvr tracking

research time

[fleet cave]

most people use multi point tracking, like trackers on feet and hips etc

i have no genuine clue how mocap suits function if they do its probably with third party stuff like that dog person mentioned

[bitter bone]

If I don’t fall asleep in the next hour I’m whipping out the bong 😔

[minor tangle]

dog person? i mean i got it working with steamvr, and works well with beat saber

[fleet cave]

vahv's in game model has dog ears, dog person.

[wooden fog]

sorry, me

im the watchdog

[bright apex]

It looks like Cloudflare is having maintenance, AWS may not be the source.

Look carefully to verify facts.

[fleet cave]

my most trusted involuntary mod 💗

[barren whale]

Bezos doesn't want US to be cute

[red bay]

https://tenor.com/view/nailong-dwerk-nai-long-gif-15426790143370555042

[surreal breach]

vahv is just dog

[wooden fog]

AWS is the source. Cloudflare is doing regular maintenance, which would never mean taking down all servers at once.

[bitter bone]

Think it’s both. Vrc does use AWS servers and their mods aren’t stupid

The message in #vrchat-general-1 wouldn’t say AWS if that wasn’t the source

[fleet cave]

I apologize but I lack the knowledge, I could look into it for you though if you provide more information on your mocap suit

[bright apex]

AWS or Cloudflare; I'm inclined to believe it's Cloudflare, because it's lining up with their maintenance hour/day for a server they are working on today.

[minor tangle]

from what ive seen of the public image of vrc, id beg to differ, still not gonna knock it till i try it 🙂

[thick viper]

huh?

[bitter bone]

Bro if public image is how you judge a volunteer’s ability to work ok? 😂

Why even be here if that matters to you so much lmao

[craggy totem]

Is vrchat still having problems

[thick viper]

atm still is scar

[craggy totem]

Oof

[thick viper]

but the web site is working fully

[bright apex]

I mean, Roblox is so, so much worse.

[minor tangle]

nah dw, i got the rokoko smartsuit btw

[craggy totem]

It will probably be fixed tomorrow

[wooden fog]

tbf, the only content thats common for vrchat creators is tiktok sounds/skits, drama content, or trolling content, or avatar help.

nobody actually makes content on the hundreds of game worlds, photography/videography content, etc. that is actually fun and valuable, bc it doesnt get views.

[thick viper]

nothing much we can do but wait sadly

[minor tangle]

its like 2 grand, but the company was shutting down so i nabbed it for like 300, just been sitting in a box forever

[bright apex]

Apparently I have a mutual with the tupp himself. Whaddya know.

[minor tangle]

yeah thats what ive seen too

[fleet cave]

https://www.rokoko.com/insights/vrchat-quickest-live-body-tracking-workflow-with-rokoko-studio-smartsuit-pro-ii

[bitter bone]

I ate 9 brownies and took a nap before bed, now I’m supposed to be sleeping and can’t stop the heartburn from keeping me up 😔

[minor tangle]

either trolling or drama

[wooden fog]

yeah, thats been the "peak" vrchat content for years, hell, almost a decade

[minor tangle]

well then... guess it just works

[wooden fog]

W oath

found it faster than me

[minor tangle]

nah, "do you kno da wae" was peak lmao

[fleet cave]

im goated

[bright apex]

Holy shit, the worlds can be so, so beautiful. I am so upset at VRC's team for not giving us more favorite lists so I can rightfully spotlight the places I've found.

[wooden fog]

omg they use OSC for their mocap suit thats sick

[bitter bone]

Don’t we get more favorites with VRC+?

[bright apex]

Not enough. And especially not enough for favorite friends.

[minor tangle]

whats osc?

[wooden fog]

ikrrr

[minor tangle]

3rd party program?

[fleet cave]

Open Sound Control

[minor tangle]

oh

[fleet cave]

?

thats the acronym ? i never knew

thats what this article says at least

[bitter bone]

Yeah it streams data into VRC that you can use to do avatar animations, or spam chat, etc.

[wooden fog]

Open Sound Control - don't be decieved by the name, its usually used for instruments and stuff, but its a networking protocol that can be used to communicate certain types of data.

[bitter bone]

It’s how all the people have the chat spam statuses

[fleet cave]

in any case it transfers data from the game to other software basically

[bright apex]

Remember when we only had 9 slots for stickers? I know they are capable of giving us more but choose not to.

[wooden fog]

its also the protocol/port system used for face tracking, heartrate monitors, etc

[opal pasture]

Why are cheeseburgers so good?

[minor tangle]

ah... gonna fk about with it and see if it actually works rq

[fleet cave]

Seems to be wifi based so i hope you got a good stable connection in your playspace

the attached video makes it look a little choppy so idk

[minor tangle]

is 500mb/s 5ms latency good enough? lmao

[wooden fog]

OSC is just the protocol of how a software connects to vrchat. simply put:

1. Set up Rokoko Studio settings (in this case, inputting the correct IP address and port)
2. Enable OSC in VRChat
3. Calibrate!

[bright apex]

Very good.

[wooden fog]

its more about signal strength/proximity to router, not speed

[fleet cave]

if you want a video guide it's in the article

[minor tangle]

router is literally like 2m behind me

[wooden fog]

perfect then

[fleet cave]

should be fine then

[wooden fog]

you should have absolutely 0 issues

tbf i use a quest with a router on the other side of my house and dont have issues so xd

[minor tangle]

heres to hoping the servers are back

[fleet cave]

negative sergeant

[thick viper]

nope i just cheackted

[fleet cave]

I use a quest pro with the router literally sat behind my pc

[wooden fog]

they said they found the issues, its with DNS servers on US-EAST. next update in 30 minutes 😭

[fleet cave]

my precious little wifi 6 box

[thick viper]

thank you for the update vahv

[wooden fog]

meanwhile cloudflare is perfectly fine, and back to routine mainenance.

[fresh finch]

when australia vrchat servers? 🗣️

[minor tangle]

i use a vive and the suit as controllers with hand tracking for other games, hoping itll transfer my settings via steamvr

[fleet cave]

oh the handtracking in vrc may be a smidge confusing at first but once you get the hang of it its actually decent

[craggy totem]

Is vrchat working now i live in new zealand though

[wooden fog]

ahhh yeah... handtracking is a little weird but not hard to set up

[wooden fog]

no. AWS still down.

[dry marten]

Apparently Roblox is back up

[craggy totem]

So au or nz servers still not showing up

[dry marten]

Vrchat might be back up ?

[thick viper]

soon hopefully but the website is working fully

[peak spire]

I’ll try it and let yall know

[fleet cave]

ill give it a boot

[dry marten]

[minor tangle]

btw, is it often yall just get random friend reqs from in here? just got like 7 from ppl that i never spoke to

[bitter bone]

Yea they’re all scammers, block or report then block 🫡

[minor tangle]

im a good girl and i update my software lmao

[bitter bone]

There’s a #discord-tickets you can report those in if you care

[ornate mica]

This is a purrfect time to work on those arts or modeling or musics you all have been procrastinating :3

[wooden fog]

not me, thats how you get screwed

[minor tangle]

nah im aware bout all that, not the first time ive been on a big discord server, just weird

[wooden fog]

nvidia drivers having major issues all year and windows updates killing nvme drives hahahah

[minor tangle]

i like to fk with em sometimes and waste their time

[wooden fog]

im staying back

[fleet cave]

shout out to blender version 2.93.118.0 my one true love

[bitter bone]

VRC is like the heart of avatar creator scams in terms of discord. I get the most here compared to anywhere else by like 2-3 times

[minor tangle]

never had any issues myself, other than having to swap out m.2 drives every time i wanna play skyrim...

[wooden fog]

the kid named “blender version 2.93.1180”: 🥰

[wooden fog]

nvidia drivers havent been an issue for me, but im sure as hell not risking my drives

[fleet cave]

what the hell is skyrim doing to your m.2's

[bitter bone]

If you say you want to make or don’t know how to make an avatar, you’ll get 2-5 DMs that day from the people just scanning chat to find people to steal from 😅

[minor tangle]

i have a samsung 890 2tb with 1.5 of it filled with a skyrim modpack...

[merry gyro]

woah i didn't know packs for skyrim get that big

[fleet cave]

one point five fucking terabytes?!

[wooden fog]

lmao

[merry gyro]

I had a friend who had like a 400gb modpack but damn

[minor tangle]

yeah... they usually dont... it takes me like 15mins to load up

[wooden fog]

sounds about right

[fleet cave]

lmfao of fucking course it takes a while what the hell do you have in there bro

[craggy totem]

Will i be able to play vrchat again

[fleet cave]

no never again

[barren whale]

VRC is back up i think

[minor tangle]

40k mods?

[barren whale]

time to get fuqqing faaaaded

[merry gyro]

how stable is it?

[craggy totem]

It's up yay

[fleet cave]

like what

[minor tangle]

stable enough to play until my ram gets full... which is usually like 3 hrs

[thick viper]

yes it is

[frail urchin]

HEY ik its down but have to ask, if ur in SUNSET BAR, how do you give assistance manager or genreal manager perms to someone bc the thingy didnt seem to work for me and idk if it was just a bug or not

[fleet cave]

how much ram u got

[thick viper]

vrchat is back up running

[minor tangle]

64gb

[fleet cave]

damn only 3 hours on 64gigs is crazy

[minor tangle]

also 9800x3d and a proart 4080 super

[wooden fog]

despite knowing the world creator, no clue

[minor tangle]

yes...

[bitter bone]

@minor tangle fun question, if you found a vrc world that played like skyrim would you enjoy it or nah

[minor tangle]

name any mod and the answer would be yes

[wooden fog]

x3d cpu? youll have a great time on vrc lol, this game LOVES l3 cache

[fleet cave]

i know what you are

[minor tangle]

nuh uh

[thick viper]

ok i am good now vrchat is running may you al have a great day or night

[minor tangle]

i got skyrim vr for that tho

[ornate mica]

Isn't playing on android headset better?

[bitter bone]

That’s why I asked, wanted to know what a normal person would think 😛

[bitter bone]

Fuck no?

[fleet cave]

but yeah its back up, coolio.

may take a try or two considering the influx of people but i got in pretty easy

[minor tangle]

i was confused lmao... like why would i play a game on a game when the game already has a vr version

[bitter bone]

I mean y’all have no cord yaaay but 💀 the quality

[ornate mica]

has been brainwashed into thinking quest pro is the bestest

[fleet cave]

its my favorite headset so far

OG Vive
Index
Quest Pro

I do miss the index audio quality though

[minor tangle]

ive tried the pico 4 ultra before, but the latency is kinda weird

[wooden fog]

nope, i have it and i hate ts

[ornate mica]

Looking to buy one used! But so worried it is not the good option in the long haul

[wooden fog]

get a bsb2e + halo mount + babble if you want the best of the best sadly

qpro has so many issues and still isnt comfy (in my case)

[fleet cave]

Currently it's just the most known about way to do face tracking but it's been discontinued so it's harder to find and if your shit gets fucked to any degree good luck getting anything replaced

[ornate mica]

googles

[minor tangle]

im gonna let you know how my mocap suit works, when the damn game lets me log tf in

[bitter bone]

The fact that index is still like the best VR audio experience for PC is kinda crazy too 💀

[wooden fog]

q pro also has the lowest “resolution” face tracking, aka least amount of data points.

[minor tangle]

audio? yall not wear a headset over your vr headset?

[wooden fog]

nope

[bitter bone]

Why

[ornate mica]

Is something new coming out around the corner? Money's not really an object

[minor tangle]

cus wireless headset?

[bitter bone]

No reason to when index is so good

[fleet cave]

It's a fickle thing but once I modded mine a decent amount it got bearable

-Two types of comfort strap
-Head vive tracker
-simple camera mount for head tracker
etc

[wooden fog]

IEMs are the play imo

[merry gyro]

I use IEM's yeah

[bitter bone]

Index has built in audio processing, adding headphones is just solving a problem that doesn’t exist

[wooden fog]

the index speakers are actually insanely good if you dont mind how bulky the headset is

[fleet cave]

I enjoy the wireless-ness thoroughly though, got 3 powerbanks for keeping charge adding up to about 10 hour session capability

[fleet cave]

the microphone too

[minor tangle]

excuse me for not wanting my partner to hear kids scream out the n word on repeat 😭

[bitter bone]

Plus index speakers hang over your ears without touching them and sound so crystal clear

[lilac oracle]

wow

[bitter bone]

I wouldn’t either lmao- just go places you won’t find that 😂

[wooden fog]

no publics o7

[minor tangle]

a lot of the vr fps games have them no matter where you go

[lilac oracle]

hm

[fleet cave]

i can still hear them creak in my head cuz im a lazy fat fuck and like laying on my side

[wooden fog]

yup, it sucks, i was in the crowd

[fleet cave]

• creak, crack *

[bitter bone]

How to break your index 101 😔

[lilac oracle]

weird day to play dbd

[minor tangle]

i just slap my corsair hs80 max headset over the vive and it works real good

[fleet cave]

how'd you know this headset to my right is my third one

6th set of controllers but never ever gotten new vive trackers

i swear im just unlucky with valve hardware

[wooden fog]

i would never treat my studio headphones like this 😭 maybe my old ones

[fleet cave]

except for headset #1 i fell on that one tripping balls

[bitter bone]

Only index that ever broke on me was from doggo chewing through the cord 😅 then I got a new cord and found out the entire headset was broken

[wooden fog]

sounds about right

[fleet cave]

Ive had like 5 cables cuz they kept dying even if I kept them untangled and proper

[minor tangle]

hs80's are like... £140-160? and the only structural weak point is right on the joints which are plastic (for whatever tf reason)

[bitter bone]

Thank glob for tundra’s refurbished cheap indexes 🙏

[fleet cave]

i got a tundra controller

[minor tangle]

got really good sound quality and mic

[fleet cave]

it got deadzones and drift within like 3 weeks

unlucky really c'est la vie

[minor tangle]

my favourite bbno$ song

[bitter bone]

My three trackers are tundras with the SW3 dongle and I love them, they don’t even sell those dongles anymore cuz the bigger one’s apparently sucked

[minor tangle]

speaking of songs, yall got any advice on ripping my ears off? got the nightcore rockerfella street song stuck in my head...

[bitter bone]

😂

[fleet cave]

Mac Miller is always a lovely palette cleanser for me personally

[ornate mica]

Is the Beyond 2 face tracking similar to a quest pro?

[minor tangle]

you dont understand... ive literally been humming 1 2 7 3 to myself...

i hate it for how catchy it is

[fleet cave]

and you think inflicting it on others makes that okay

[minor tangle]

no

[fleet cave]

now you got me

[minor tangle]

sorry 😭

2011 eurovision shouldnt have happened...

might do a DNB remix of it tho...

[sharp ginkgo]

dude i had managed to get in in offline mode

[minor tangle]

oh, just got a message off my brother and its so funny, he plays EVE a lot and all of his friends on there are crashing out hard cus they cant log on 😭

[wooden fog]

hmmmm

listen to Pure Imagination

thatll replace rockefeller

[minor tangle]

gene wilder or timothee chalamet?

nvm i got rid of it.... sabaton fixed my head

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcYhYO02f98

when the winged hussars arrived!

[fleet cave]

its been so long but reading this immediately brought it back to the forefront of my mind

[minor tangle]

now instead of having an estonian accent anime girl in my head i got a swedish man screaming while im headbanging

[wooden fog]

xd

“Significiant signs of recovery with most requests succeeding”

might be able to get on vrc shortly

AWS is coming back

[minor tangle]

fk it i need something in between.... erm... erm... erm.... devil trigger

[minor tangle]

👍 might be able to get on before i head off to work

[wooden fog]

🫡

[fleet cave]

im alr on

things are operational enough

[minor tangle]

still not working for me :/

[sharp ginkgo]

the logging in works but then i get stuck in the blue hell

[minor tangle]

yeah same here

website works tho

[wooden fog]

keep trying, wont work first time

[minor tangle]

i been trying for the past hour and a half 😭

[fleet cave]

skill issue, i'm afraid

[minor tangle]

damn....

got in on offline mode...

ok this tracking is.... strangely really accurate

[fleet cave]

oh you got it working?

[minor tangle]

yeah through steamvr for now but gonna try that osc thing when i get in properly

[vocal shard]

Nobody needs to be on vrchat this badly 🥀

[wooden fog]

i mean its a mocap suit, its gonna also track your elbows, knees, etc - when most players only have hip + feet trackers

[minor tangle]

nah i was just trying to test it out and see what the game is even about lmao

[minor tangle]

oh i got the whole hand trackers aswell

[wooden fog]

very nice

[minor tangle]

its weird tho... a lot more fluid than i expected

[bitter bone]

Good luck 🫡 most first impressions go to the places everyone else avoids

The tracking being as perfect and smooth as it is is why everyone loves FBT lol

[wooden fog]

avoid public black cats ahaha

id recommend group public great pug or some chill stuff like pool parlor

[bitter bone]

I leveled it up a few weeks ago by measuring my limbs and stretching my main avatar’s to match… all my movements were so 1:1 I felt like they really were my limbs

[wooden fog]

yeah, proportions on avatars play a big role

[bitter bone]

I haven’t been able to get it perfect tho… VRC is weird with tracking. I ended up too short or long on something so I basically always have to add 2 inches to my in-game height after calibration

[vocal shard]

Joke of the century held back 🥀

[minor tangle]

im not gonna go that far yet but ill probs upload one of the models i had made in blender for a project at some point

if i enjoy the game

[wooden fog]

me when the vrchat player knocks me over with their ridiculously sized ass:

[fleet cave]

godspeed paradis

[vocal shard]

We found the cards against humanity player

[fleet cave]

may we meet someday

o7

[bitter bone]

If you’re an adult and comfortable with it you can age verify, but you have to have VRC+ when applying in order to cover VRC’s cost of working through persona

[minor tangle]

oh thats a point... is it normal that most the avatars jiggle so damn much? like... whos idea is it?

[bitter bone]

VRC is porn

It’s unfortunate but it is the way it is

[minor tangle]

yeah but its like any way i turn, my bits are lagging like 3 years behind...

[bitter bone]

😂 the wiggle physics are calibrated per avatar

[fleet cave]

hey now i just want the junk in the trunk to move a little is all

[bitter bone]

So it just seems you found an avatar made by a true porn artist 😂

[wooden fog]

idunno lmao, i like my avatars to not be a plastic surgeon’s waterbed

[minor tangle]

not judging just saying... who tf made this like that...

[bitter bone]

90% of them are smh

Y’all have no clue how happy I am that, as a gator, my parts are on the inside so I don’t have to worry about any of the porn part of VRC 😂

[wooden fog]

eh, not really

[bitter bone]

My avi doesn’t even have it and it isn’t unrealistic lol

[wooden fog]

75% of e-boy/e-girl models and 75% of booth

[vocal shard]

What’s worse is when there’s an avatar with ass but no wiggle like how do you mess up the ONE THING

[wooden fog]

LOL

[bitter bone]

Not everyone’s looking for that lol

[fleet cave]

i dunno what you're using but my models are pretty tame all things considered

[wooden fog]

i guessed you could say the work was half-assed

[vocal shard]

I’m looking for that twin

[fleet cave]

my thighs (only the back) and butt jiggles a healthy amount

thats it

[vocal shard]

Imagine this in all caps and italicized

[wooden fog]

im so tired im laughing at the stupidest shit

[bitter bone]

oof

[minor tangle]

nvm

[bitter bone]

Sorry dyno is an ass like that

[wooden fog]

also my avatar is as flat as a cutting board so i dont need booba physics

[minor tangle]

was just sayin i found the porn options on an avatar within like 5 minutes of being online...

[wooden fog]

LMAO

[bitter bone]

I used to get automodded a lot before I just stopped trying to say certain things 😅

[minor tangle]

and.... certain... wireless connections lets just say

[bitter bone]

Yeah what do you think happens when the 10 year olds get a Quest for Christmas

This is why certain places have to be avoided

[wooden fog]

second life and ff14 players have a boatload of overlap with vrchat, expect those people

[vocal shard]

Kids just shouldn’t have VR in ngl

[wooden fog]

agreed

[bitter bone]

No joke seeing and hearing a 5-8 year old’s voice coming out of literal naked girls in VR is disgusting

[analog haven]

Vr chats down what do u do now?, kill myself ?

[fleet cave]

what in gods name how'd you find it that quickly it can't be that easy

[bitter bone]

And ain’t nothin you can do about it except report so VRC can ban them

[minor tangle]

oh no, i didnt even talk to anyone yet, i just went to "prismics avatar search" in a private instance and pressed "random"

[wooden fog]

there needs to be law to separate “internet-connected” and “telecommunications” devices. then we ID internet devices on purchase like alcohol, and ban it for minors

[fleet cave]

oh that makes sense

[wooden fog]

wont solve it all but would do a damn good job

[vocal shard]

Had a kid in a random lobby keep calling me a good boy while I was just hanging out with friends in among us. Like whose child was that..

[fleet cave]

be a based individual and use shinano

👑

[minor tangle]

whats that?

[wooden fog]

a Booth model

[fleet cave]

model base

[minor tangle]

lemme google it

[wooden fog]

Booth is a japanese marketplace for a specific art-style of models

[bitter bone]

A little ragebaiter so cute

[wooden fog]

same with Gumroad, except its an American marketplace

also Jinxxy

[bitter bone]

@minor tangle since you’re in prismics you can probably search the avatar name and find uploads

[vocal shard]

Not to mention all the people who just scream slurs

[fleet cave]

not tryna pick a fight but booth bases are just best imo

[wooden fog]

booth.pm is what youre looking for

[vocal shard]

It’s like a cod lobby

[bitter bone]

I rarely see em but I used to before age verification

[minor tangle]

yeah thats what i just did

[bitter bone]

Now I legit rarely see any trolls because I don’t go where they can

[minor tangle]

im seeing a lot of hatsune miku...

[fleet cave]

inbefore they hate shinano's style ;w;

[wooden fog]

lol

[bitter bone]

Last troll I saw was a dude making fun of furries in furry hideout. The mods there were absolute ass, literally argued with him about disrespecting us while we all just watched and they never kicked him

Seems like some furries want everyone else to get bullied lmao

[vocal shard]

I try to find good age verification servers but literally everybody is so uptight and weird I’m ngl. Tell me why these discord mod sounding bitches be getting mad at me for not saying my date of birth in a ID Gated instance

Is it actually an issue where kids are using their parents ID’s to log into VRchat?

Who’s parents are doing this shit

[fleet cave]

yes.

[bitter bone]

Last I checked you should be able to report them and their group for that, but I’m not entirely sure.

[minor tangle]

i mean... its cute but im seeing a lot of these are also... porn ones... and makes me uncomfortable...

[vocal shard]

How tf do you do that though without some ammount of parental consent cause wtf do u mean they had to scan their face and EVERYTHING first

[fleet cave]

ah yeah like

[bitter bone]

Like I said, vrchat is porn

[fleet cave]

im sorry about that i guess but there's nothing you can really do about it

[bitter bone]

It’s not a joke, it’s the truth lol

[fleet cave]

it's an inescapable part no matter what style of model you go for prismic is gonna have something nsfw

[wooden fog]

theres some solace and peace in vrc

not much though 😆

[bitter bone]

It’s why everyone says VRC should be an M rated game

[vocal shard]

It’s weird how people take nudity sometimes to me

[minor tangle]

nah i mean, the model base looking like an underage anime girl mixed with porn stuff makes me uncomfortable...

esp since im seeing myself in the mocap suit move around...

[vocal shard]

Ew wtf

[bitter bone]

You should see what tupper wears 💀

[wooden fog]

oh yeah, loli models…

[minor tangle]

whos that?

[fleet cave]

oh no bruh dont say my goat base is underage 😭

[minor tangle]

i mean, she looks it

[bitter bone]

One of the faces of the game, a community manager

[wooden fog]

tuppers model isnt sexual though, its just a video game character.

[fleet cave]

mine dont

[bitter bone]

Lolis are lolis tho

You see it and go :X

[minor tangle]

oh god... dont tell me....

[wooden fog]

ok, but if its not sexualized it shouldnt matter, even if you dont like it

its only an issue if its sexual

blame japan ig lol

[fleet cave]

shinano isn't a loli base nor underage tho

[karmic rose]

https://tenor.com/view/gif-gif-19492669

[fleet cave]

it's just the eastern style, booth models are all like anime characters instead of second life sloppa

[minor tangle]

my issue is the menu even being there on a character that looks like a 15yo girl...

[vocal shard]

Blame the weird ass mf’s who want that specifically cause you had to sit in a room and animate a literal child

Like..

[karmic rose]

literal
