Is there a Minotaur

sudden agate
#

vwv

median basalt
#

Well a lot of things seem to have broken at once, apparently the VRC Discord was temp unreachable for some people

wet tartan
#

Oooo I want a Minotaur model now

idle elm
#

Maybe a fiber line got cut somewhere and the internet is choking on all the traffic somewhere

cedar cobalt
#

Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in? xD

median basalt
#

And Steam is down at the exact same time. Either way this doesn't seem like a coincidence, it's probably one fault that hit multiple services

pale hull
#

yeah its steam aswell

covert linden
#

my steam works fine..

vocal shard
#

rokk stop with these false claims

median basalt
#

Friends seems to be unreachable for me

covert linden
#

reached my friends fine

median basalt
#

Wdym "false claims", I literally had this Discord server be unavailable for a short time

wet tartan
#

Well I'm taking my headset off and having a beer and a balonie sandwich while this blows over

sudden agate
#

ghoster's server got clapped, as well..

vocal shard
#

steam is fine for me, somebody said it was just Tuesday maintenance

covert linden
#

My friend has this server unavailable for a second, Rokk isnt lying. I have a screenshot.

sudden agate
#

the leader of vrctraders server got clapped

covert linden
#

There is no tuesday maintence. Ive played all day tuesdays before

wet tartan
#

Clapped?

median basalt
#

Depending on where the fault is, it may affect some regions more than others. Don't jump to conclusions about people lying, thanks.

sudden agate
vocal shard
#

well i have too, and everyone keeps saying different things which all seem like its not the issue

prime void
#

Help! I don't know how to socialize anymore without VRChat!

vocal shard
#

and i assumed it was a regional thing

median basalt
#

If several major services go down at the same time you can bet that some CDN or route went down

sudden agate
#

it just seems like a big ol' beefy ddosed

wet tartan
#

Someone somewhere is fucking scrambling to get things fixed

median basalt
#

Some guy just got called out of his bed for sure

vocal shard
#

lmaoo

prime void
#

@wet tartan I feel bad for whoever that person is

pale hull
#

Is it safe to go with oculus vrc? Like is it the steam servers or is it all of vrchat?

sharp basalt
#

Why is the game not in my library? HELP!

vocal shard
#

all other online games work fine on steam

jaunty oar
#

No, Oculus ones are down as well

covert linden
#

all of vrc

indigo hedge
#

@covert chasm With the Crasher and the IP thing It good for you guys to do a Restart

sharp basalt
#

Steam is fine

median basalt
#

The friends network is currently unreachable for me

jaunty oar
#

Cant get into VRC, just sitting an d waiting

#

Hope Tupper and co can fix things - we got an NCAA Bracket to fill out on the beach tonight

covert linden
#

tupper isnt incharge of the fixes @indigo hedge

sharp basalt
#

VR chat is broke shiiiii I wanted to go on later too vrcfrown

indigo hedge
#

I know but he is the one talking to us

covert chasm
#

I don't think anyone is "in charge of the fixes". If something needs fixing we all kinda scramble.

fading osprey
#

Hahaha 😃

damn i had shit planned with some friends who dont get on a whole lot

That's really funny to imagine in an office setting

wow its Tuppers fault. Blame him

God, Tuppers

tupper sneezed on the server nodes

i demand public executions XD

I made a new friend and I didnt get the opportunity to add them before the crash ":(

sudden agate
#

off with their head!

covert linden
#

my new friend.. first day on vrc.. hes probably so confused and blaming wifi..

prime void
#

wait, is a mob forming against Tupper? I love mobs! Haven't been apart of a good mob in years (in case it wasn't obvious, this is a joke, please don't harass poor Tupper)

vocal shard
#

@vocal shard search name in socials tab

#

👌🏼

sudden agate
#

tupper says everyone just kinda scrambles? it reminds me of the white and blood anime girl cells

covert chasm
#

scramble more in the sense of launching fighters from a carrier, less so "scrambling around aimlessly" 😛

vocal shard
#

is this how the world ends

sudden agate

LMAO

u guys are wasting dev's times by legit doing stuff like that vrcdislike

oh no, I think Madara put a genjitsu on the VRC servers

They better get the server working again soon, otherwise the VRC community will bleed into the real world, and I don't think the real world is prepared for an onslaught of knuckles and anime grils (EDIT: and Chungus)

I wonder what would happen if this discord had a voice channel. do they have a max user count that fit in them?

indigo hedge
#

I thing so yea @covert chasm

median basalt
#

It's a good thing this Discord doesn't have a voice channel, would be almost impossible to moderate.

vocal shard
#

dont say that mimi

sudden agate
#

I think they'll constantly have to monitor the vc, so it'd be more work i think

prime void
#

@median basalt It would sound similar to a public PUG world after the knuckles meme became a thing

vast tulip

well yeah, I mean, technically what would happen

covert chasm
vast tulip

interesting

Doesn't Discord support priority speaker now? So there's nothing stopping me from making a channel in here, giving Priority to myself, and forcing everyone to listen to the Star Trek Enterprise opening for five hours straight? 🤔

@covert chasm I'd listen to it

vrchat devs need to hurry up, im on life-support right now and can only survive a bit longer without my ability to rule the vrchat Underworld

Lmao exactly

hazy night

It’s good

vocal shard
#

Nin-

median basalt
#

I have some quarrels with the way development is going but I wouldn't say the game is "dying". It also still makes its "competitors" look like dwarfs in comparison

median basalt
#

The "competitors" being VR social games or VR sandboxes

#

Neos has 10 peak players and Rec Room has several hundred (PSVR included) lmao.

ruby burrow
#

Roblox is not a competitor to VR-Chat... >_>

median basalt
#

I'm pretty sure when my friends and I tried out Neos, we literally broke the all-time peak.

vast tulip
#

yeah, what does this have to do with roblox at all? :P

median basalt
#

Roblox supposedly has VR but it doesn't compare to VRC at all

sterile drift
#

VRChat on PSVR when tanabae

median basalt
#

VRChat gives you a lot of freedom when you think about it

lone crater
#

VRchat chat has never been so busy

placid flume
#

r omegalul blox

weary bison
#

I wouldn't consider VR social apps competitors in this early stage, the real competition is with the non-VR audience

median basalt
#

IMO VRC isn't quite living up to its potential because too much focus is put on the long term and short term issues are ignored. But again, that's personal opinion and the game isn't "dying". VR is in its infancy and this game is helping many people get into VR.

#

I bought a headset solely for this game, pretty much everyone with vive trackers or nolo trackers has them for this game

Alliance not for accepting for members why

Can everyone just optimize their worlds and avatars, pls l thx

#

My pc works just great in other games, only Vrc does it die.

@zinc solar My pfp picture is a birthday present that a friend in game drew for me.

They actually shipped it to me across the Atlantic, and I've got it framed above my PC. 🙂

welcome to the purge

uncut trail
#

we need more horror maps 😦

rough flax
#

If everyone didn’t have 20 materials, and 150+ dyn bones on their avatar when it’s not needed, I wouldn’t have to block everyone’s avatars..

ruby burrow
#

@zinc solar Ah. Well no worries, I certainly didn't steal your cyclops. Uploaded mine myself. Would hope the same.

median basalt
#

I had to hide a lot of larens models every day lol

rough flax
#

I have a few friends that have tiny details that literally don’t need to have 5-20 dyn bones each on them.

vocal shard
#

all of my favorited skins are gone

median basalt
#

2000 collision checks 🤢

vocal shard
#

all my favoirted skins are from a month ago

median basalt
#

Part of the optimization is on VRC's end though, a lot of important and heavy stuff runs on the main thread

rough flax
#

I’ll get like 45 frames, then like 2 or 3 people join and I’m sub 20 FPS. I hide their avatars and I’m back to 45...

rigid crescent
#

It's because people are lazy and it does take a bit more work to optimize. Unfortunately this never goes anywhere lol

vocal shard
#

RIP VRCHAT

indigo hedge
#

but the physic with those bone Kappa

median basalt
#

I heard scifi complex is back up but without dynamic bone on the avatars. I can live with that lol

ruby burrow
#

I've seen short haired male avatars with 100 bones, distributed between 10 or so one or two inch hair spikes.

rigid crescent
#

Devs fault for not pushing optimization earlier and players fault for being lazy

median basalt
#

My recent male avatars are all fairly optimized on the dynamic bones by default, usually 20 bones total. 2 ear bones, 6 tail bones, and 8 hair bones

#

Can't speak for the one in a maid dress though 😅

ruby burrow
#

Ironically, I need to stop being lazy and actually setup the dy-bones for my newer models...

placid flume
#

i got the horses in the back

rigid crescent
#

I managed to knock my maid down to like 49 I think

vocal shard
#

rip all of my favorited worlds and skins

ruby burrow
#

I've just left them without any for now. Zero effort required.

rigid crescent
#

But my latest model has 0 DB. Itd my first super short haired one

median basalt
#

I think I can take the skirt down to 8 bones on mine but I already merged part of the bones so I essentially have to re-weight them entirely. Can't take advantage of the blur tool.

runescape greatest game of all time

one even had a few avatars you could use

dusky mortar
placid flume
#

damn pog, what areas of rs were they

winged igloo
#

i forget the name though, but you could probably search "Runescape" in the world search and see if anything comes up

placid flume
#

imma need to check that shit out

winged igloo
#

If I remember correctly it was just the OSRS Grand Exchange on one map

placid flume
#

runescapes map is amazing bro

rigid crescent
#

Oh right the grand exchange

placid flume
#

the world is so sick

winged igloo
#

I was addicted to RS, an RS clan is actually what made me get Discord

#

And then i discovered VRChat

#

and haven't really played much since

placid flume
#

i dont play vrc as much as i used to

#

i been playing so much osrs recently lmaooo

vocal shard
#

Is VRChat back up?

dusky mortar
#

No wonder no one answered me

ruby burrow
#

Apparently yes.
And ironically even during this service outage for the game, VR-Chat still had more players online, just waiting and hoping, than it's main rivals had active players.

winged igloo
#

Seems to be, Echo

dusky mortar
#

I'm asking the same question

winged igloo
#

The VRCBot user numbers are increasing

dusky mortar
#

There are bots?

rigid crescent
#

@ruby burrow that's combined, too. All those games combined don't even hit 1/5th of the online usres during the crash lol

#

The potatoes really come out when there's a ping or server issues, it's kinda painful tanabae

vocal shard
#

@zinc solar no, lol. they do seem like they are enjoying their stay though so id assume they stick around for awhile 👀

ruby burrow
#

More accurately though, it's more like it tripped up for 10 minutes and was then back running again.

rigid crescent
#

oh was it only 10 minutes? the announcement was made a while ago

ruby burrow
#

Hmm. Based on when I logged off, about 45 minutes I guess.

#

So a decent outage, but hardly a catastrophe either way.

rigid crescent
#

ah it's back up, they're leaving 💖

pale hull
#

havent checked anywhere for updates, but i see vrc has almost 4000 people online now. Is it alright to get on?

So i went to Munificent's Avatar world(VR Comrades Avatar and Hangout World). And malwarebytes said "website blocked due to Trojan" twice. So this dude is somehow trying to give us trojans without knowing

#

Only server ive had this happen in

weary bison
#

munificent is a longtime user who works hard on their content

vocal shard
#

then why would that happen

weary bison
vocal shard
#

why am i getting outsourced to 2 malicious sites

#

Might be Malwarebytes false positives

#

it doesnt happen in any of his other worlds

weary bison
#

it happens every time you visit that world specifically?

vocal shard
#

yes

#

and it happens twice, within 5 seconds of each other

median basalt
#

More than likely it's just a false positive

#

Perhaps some part of some loaded URL is deemed suspicious, such as a link to an avatar preview image or a video/image fetched from the web.

You can find your output log at C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat named output_log.txt

it's a file hosting site

What's that?

so hes streaming music/content for his server?

median basalt
#

This is why I don't spend money on antivirus anymore lol

weary bison

ah, this makes sense

median basalt
#

Already got burned once on McAfee

prisma rapids
#

Malwarebytes has false positives sometimes

#

i don't use web protection anymore
only annoys me

weary bison
#

pomf/mixtape clones are often used to share malware

muted meadow
#

well whoever made the website went through the trouble of getting a signed certificate for the domain name. I doubt it's malicious

weary bison

it's essentially unmoderated file hosting

i don't understand what community labs are. Does it mean other people can upload things to our worlds? or?..

Is this optional? or is this a button we need to click?

Yes of course

It's not a virus, this is all inbound traffic being stopped at the firewall. I've got anti-virus software, but I'd see outbound requests as well. Someone is trying to find open ports on my firewall rn. I just locked everything down though. running a netstat from my PC i'm not seeing any malicious traffic getting through

If you are concerned that something maybe going wrong, send an email to support@vrchat.com with all the information and the should be able to help resolve it, at the very least it will notify them of the issue and they can work on fixing it

yeh I'll send them an email detailing my findings.

I've blocked those address though, I don't see any others trying to get through.

very odd timing

Looking at it, this started about 15min after I got logged off of vrc and started having the black screen issue

vrchat got hijacked exposed 100% confirmed /s

Likely unfortunate timing. Seeing random pings from across the planet isn't too strange-- try setting up a honeypot SSH account open to the internet with a default port

@gloomy valve hold it with one hand while operating the buttons with your other

tried

#

for some reason they just dont register. could be the trackers im using.

Also if your camera was loaded when you entered the world, the buttons won't work until you disable and reenable

And if you have a really tiny avatar (eg 30cm tall) it can be much harder to operate

Or is it Unity?

umbral reef

If you send most Vrchat avatars to a game dev they would laugh and cry about how badly its optimized
But wihtin Vrchat its normal to have something so bad, rendering live with extra things even...

#

People dont need 500 dynamic bones and 12 colliders 👏

tacit plank
#

IK and the API could use a bit of an improvement... Besides that, it's pretty solid. The problem is shitty users uploading shitty avatars

umbral reef

There are plenty of small improvements to gain (beside IK then but you would just offload it to networking instead...).

VRChat was about to become the new Gmod before people left.

ye but networking not that much of problem yet

no it wasnt gmod is complete ly different

vrchat more like roblox than gmod anyway

The reason a 2080 and a new i9 will die in big instances is mainly morons with pirated dynamic bones though

a lot more like roblox than gmod

gmod complete different [2] and custom avatars is addons and pac3

not just gmod

tacit plank
#

And... You don't need 100K mesh particles. Neither do you need a dance animation which creates 10 of you

umbral reef
#

There is no game like Vrchat and nothing you can compare it to.
Second life has a totally different mindset about how virtual worlds work.
Gmod is even further from what makes most of Vrchat good and why people stayed.
Roblox at best comes kind of close with how worlds work but they still follow the Second life route

#

and other VR social games dont give the freedom that Vrchat does

roblox also support vr but it bad support

Yep, exactly

tacit plank

Like two components were reworked lol, not that bad

There's a reason Rec Room has a few hundred players and VRC has several thousands. And then Neos has like 10. Our friends and I broke the monthly peak when we tried it out

tacit plank
#

The IK thing was a shame though. But security is more important

median basalt
#

Yeah but we don't get anything in return lol

#

I hate to bring this up again, but the removal of legacy animations would have been a good opportunity to introduce custom animator controllers instead

tacit plank
#

It's not the priority right now, they got their hands full with more essential things

#

I'm sure it will come

median basalt
#

Oh yeah, like lessening their own workload

stone current
#

idk y it would be so dificult tho

#

wouldn't they just require 2 pass params 2 a animator controller

median basalt
#

Because that's pretty much every update in the past year. Trust system is a stopgap because they can't be arsed to moderate their game. Performance system is a way to try and get people to shame each other into optimizing, rather than implementing hard limits.

stone current
#

or does vrchat controller do thing that original doesnt

median basalt
#

And now Labs is a stopgap because they're too lazy to review worlds anymore

stone current

lol

tacit plank

They need to take into account every component that could break

umbral reef

Is it really less of a workload though? Thats one thing i wonder with Labs and the need for moderation that takes...

stone current

do labs gotta follow same rules for public worlds

median basalt
#

Well they seem to ignore all ingame reports so yeah, it's less work that way

umbral reef

Will there be less abuse of that system and how much time does that take VS how much time did it take to check worlds?

You're supposed to follow the same rules, yes

Hi guys do you think that vrchat is coming to Quest?

For Snapdragon 845 mobile vr

#

Hopefully not 😂

covert linden
#

@vocal shard Likely not because the quest cannot handle vrchat.

#

unless im mistaken but it needs like custom fit games

heavy dawn
#

There will probably be something similar but you need more than a Snapdragon mobile SOC to run VRChat as it stands.

#

I guarantee someone will release a mobile VR chat with some basic customization but it won't be VRC.

vocal shard
#

That’s why we lower the quality a lot reduce partials etc

covert linden

Do you think vrc could run on your phone Quantum?

I was told beatsaber will be on the quest though I find that mega neat

VRChat might come to Quest. :P

covert linden
#

I was about to ask if you were sure, then I realized im a dumbass and couldnt read the word might properly

torn nebula
#

@vocal shard you wouldn't be able to enter most of the worlds that exist today, nor would you be able to see most avatars. It would be an entirely separate set of worlds and avatars optimized for that platform, and at that point can you even call that vrchat?

covert linden
#

I googled the Snapdragon 845 and I got phones, welp-

still lark
#

@torn nebula VRChat isn't about current content, it's about socializing (with your content).

covert linden
#

Ok but if you cant see 99% of content thats no longer even vrc

still lark
#

Take your HMD off and actually look pls

covert linden
#

I dont have a hmd

#

I literally play on desktop

torn nebula
#

@still lark yeah but my point is only a small subset of worlds and avatars will work on both. So what you'll see is most PC users in PC worlds and all quest users in quest worlds, and PC users would need to change avatars to enter a quest instance

#

So... Is that vrchat now? Sounds to me like a separate service

covert linden
#

^

torn nebula
#

A worthwhile service to be sure, and one that someone will surely make, but does that need to be the vrchat team?

#

They're pretty busy with PC as it is

still lark
#

They probably have the most experience for it

torn nebula
#

Without shared content or the ability to freely go back and forth between the two, there's no point in putting them under one roof

covert linden
#

The question is though will they make a 'new' game for that demographic, alike to will they add a finger ik with those for knuckles?

#

Its ones we dunno and cant exactly say how reasonable it is until we hear from the people doing it

#

if its just for one thing, one amount of people, is it worth it to them?

finger ik wont happen for a long time, it's low on the list.

No reason Rift S and body trackers wouldn’t work, steamVR supports both devices in the same playspace with no actual hacks. The only software needed is input emulator to shift the two playspace to align, or the more complex spacecalibrator to do so automatcially

Wmr has been doing really good with only 2 cameras. To the point where a few vive pro owners openly claimed they preferred and more often used the Odyssey+.

I feel like the new rift s is a better version of the rift, considering how old the rift is and all the issues

umbral reef

Its not really tho-

urban jasper

I'm not so sure.

vocal shard
#

tested at gdc and so far amazing first impressions

umbral reef
#

Even worse 'true blacks' as its LCd instead of OLED like the current oculus (what as bad blacks for it being oled... Quest has to be better but il speak about that soon).
No Phisical IPD what is just cheaping out and locking out some users.
80 Hz v 90 Hz what is just dumb. The front led is just a joke (side note).

The screen fillfactor is better though- But if you want a WMR headset (Because for real, its just a cheap WMR headset..) there are better ones out there.

vocal shard
#

The tracking was great, but I will agree the ipd and the lcd is one trash choice by oculus

umbral reef
#

Legit- Going for the HP headset at 600 dollars* would be smarter even if your on a budget
As oowwwmmyyy that screen. If you can handle it its the best visual experience

#

And the tracking aint bad at all on that also from what i been finding

vocal shard
#

hp reverb

#

well yeah but it wouldnt be the best choice for vrchat dancing would it?

umbral reef
#

Well VRC dancing needs the vive trackers

#

So anything that can run SteamVr can do it in the end

vocal shard
#

hp reverb with steamvr

#

buut insideout tracking with only 2 cameras isnt the best solution

umbral reef
#

Most of the time its fairly solid-
But if you like actually care about dancing the only option is Vive

#

Same for high end Beatsaber play
Only setup ready for the task is vive

vocal shard
#

Is the screendoor effect on the vive that bad?

rigid crescent
#

I really don't see it unless im looking for it, but i do hear people complain about it a lot

umbral reef
#

Its less worse then Oculus but that mainly depends if you supersample or not

rigid crescent
#

or unless the map im on in VR has a lot of just black on white coloring

ripe jolt
#

hi u.u

umbral reef
#

Its the same with Ocu- If you dont supersample at 1.4 it looks way worse then without

rigid crescent
#

but i've never noticed it in any other game since im guessing they're designed visually to avoid it showing up

vocal shard
#

Best solution - Vive Cosmos with minimal screendoor effect coming at 500$ with insideout tracking and better controllers

#

we just gotta wait ;c

Also according to live demo's of the Rift S and devs even with the 5 camera's there are still death spots :c

#

Vive wont cut that low-- they have no reason to

carmine dew
#

Boi I sure do love when people try to threaten me on vrchat by tryna say where I live

vocal shard
#

Any news on the vive cosmos?

rigid crescent
#

they're just trying to scare you, they can't do anything lol. report and keep on moving, basically

#

oh and block

umbral reef
#

vive and releasing news
Thats like Steam releasing news

#

Its vague or nothing

vocal shard
#

;d

toxic halo
#

Oculus pulled a sneaky. They acted as if the rift s wasn't real

umbral reef
#

Well with all the demo testing of the Quest it doesnt amaze me...

#

Its apparently worse then the Rift S

vocal shard
#

it was super obvious + before gdc when they were setting stuff up there was a employee with a rift s and me and realitycheckvr saw it

toxic halo
#

I'm torn though. I enjoy using the Go but I really do need a PC vr headset

#

So idk what to get between the rift and the quest

vocal shard
#

i'd pass on both

umbral reef
#

Its Go -------> Quest ---> WMR -> Rift S -> Some other WMR headsets --> Normal oculus/Vive

vocal shard
#

i recently sold my rift due to tracking issues that came out to be the program itself..

umbral reef
#

But the Rift S is better depending on small factors

vocal shard
#

buy a vive if you want a stable headset

toxic halo
#

Vive is also too expensive tho

vocal shard
#

well there's ebay for that stuff

toxic halo
#

My income is 14 CAD an hour, and I've got more experience with oculus stuff

umbral reef
#

I always said myself that vive is the best thing to get but not for JUST VRchat.
The vive allows you to upgrade / change things. Least problems over longer times and they dont mess around really.

It more expensive but its really just an harsh income for ease of life addons.

#

The new Rift is worse

umbral reef
#

Oculus works perfect for just Vrchat. Its really solid for that and the controllers are a fair bit better then the sticks vive has

#

@median basalt Bruh- Go looking for info on the quest
People are gonna be even less happy about that 😃

median basalt
#

The new rift has worse tracking and a worse refresh rate, worse headphones, in favor of a slightly higher resolution. It is an absolute downgrade and Oculus is pretty much dead for non-mobile VR.

toxic halo
#

The new rift is good for people who prefer easy set up to quality experience imo

vocal shard
#

yeah

median basalt
#

The Oculus Quest could have replaced the Rift S entirely and conquered a large portion of the market if they had made it connectable to your PC.

#

Like the Nintendo Switch can be docked and played handheld

vocal shard
#

i cant agree more

median basalt
#

If they had done that for the Quest then the Rift S has no reason to exist, and the Quest would actually be innovative, and not shit

vocal shard
#

building a headset from the ground up, just for a wire

umbral reef
#

@toxic halo The tech is overall worse, lot less extra's and only thing really better is the screen for its price and tracking. If you want a cheaper headset that does the exact same... Well WMR is the road to go.

vocal shard
#

with lcd dis-fkinplay

burnt lark
#

does anyone use unity 3d

umbral reef
#

hahahahah yea dont

median basalt
#

The fact that the Rift is being discontinued is dumb

vocal shard
#

its not

#

its slowly fading away

umbral reef
#

But that WMR Odyssey+

vocal shard
#

is it really that good

median basalt
#

They stopped stocking them pretty much anywhere ages ago and are clearly not intending to continue the line any further, it's a matter of time until they stop selling it on the site too

vocal shard
#

i've been hearing amazing reviews for the odyssey

umbral reef
#

Legit only reason oculus can win from Odyssey+ is with room scaling....

toxic halo
#

That would have been awesome rokk

vocal shard
#

Rolls in

toxic halo
#

Rokk' n roll

umbral reef
#

Both havent really been tested properly for that and the S does have some neat roomscale tech. Gotta admit that

vocal shard
#

Henlo

umbral reef
#

They took a page from vive's camera's book

toxic halo
#

Tbh, Chinese knockoffs of the Google cardboard are Superior to all

harsh cove
#

it's not a knockoff when the final product is much better

vocal shard
#

Idk if you can but it would be neat if you could connect like a additional sensor for the odyssey so you can onlock that roomscale

umbral reef
#

Who knows- Maybe in there future headset

#

I just really hope people start to look at WMR more

vocal shard
#

well i guess imma go with vive for now

umbral reef
#

I expected people like HP not to make these leaps in tech so fast when Vive and oculus are well... doing nothing kinda..

vocal shard
#

all i need for christmas is a varjo

#

that thing is a beast

#

and you'll need a beast to run it

umbral reef
#

You would have no use for it--

vocal shard
#

but the visuals 😮

umbral reef
#

Thats also something i wonder hard with the Rift S
They claim you need no extra stats to get the same performance.
But i wonder if its really true

vocal shard
#

same performance for what

#

the tracking performance, the display?

umbral reef
#

Everything

vocal shard
#

i doubt it

#

i've tested the tracking at gdc it was great but i dont think it'll be the same compared to cv1 in terms of fast movement and shit

umbral reef
#

It has a bigger display with more sub pixels and extra tracking
They clearly have said it does not need more then the current oculus.
So i wonder if it really walks the walks

stoic halo
#

i still feel Oculus is the general better option to go for

umbral reef
#

Ow from what i read online plenty of devs and hardcore VR boys say the same
Its better then almost all WMR tracking
Its worse then current

stoic halo
#

it doesnt eat your wallet entirely, the controllers are much better, easier to setup etc.

#

most of my friends who went from Oculus to Vive only complain about the vive

umbral reef
#

How is it easier to set up?

vocal shard
#

plug and play

umbral reef
#

And if they only play VRchat. Well i fully agree. Most other stuff.. not really
But thats what i think

stoic halo
#

i play other VRGames too and i still feel the controllers are better tbh

elfin kindle
#

I love the Vive. Imo it has the best tracking available atm

vocal shard
#

the tracking i can agree but it isnt on the comfortable side compared to oculus

stoic halo
#

ive used both

#

and so far the Oculus has been much better

umbral reef
#

I liked the vive more
Used ocu for 2 weeks and own a vive myself

vocal shard
#

quest is meh with tracking where as rift s is closer to a cv1 with 2.5 sensors

carmine dew
#

Well I hope you guys realize

#

The moment the S comes out the rift is gonna go poof

vocal shard
#

nope

carmine dew
#

Yes

vocal shard
#

no

umbral reef
#

Already happening tho-
Just read up as to what Rokk said

stoic halo
#

I despise inside-out tracking

carmine dew
#

That's what oculus has stated

vocal shard
#

they're gonna slowly wipe it off the market

carmine dew
#

The rift is gonna be replaced by the S

vocal shard
#

->slowly<-

stoic halo
#

fuck that

umbral reef
#

Stores are running out and there is still no msg on restocking
In plenty of places they already only sell it on there websites instead

stoic halo
#

Inside-out sucks and i hate ittt

carmine dew
#

Because they are tired of the issues of the rift so they are making the S

umbral reef
#

@stoic halo Its better then normal inside out tracking but still worse then current camera tracking

vocal shard
#

well if stores run out that fast on rifts and theres no other option time comes for vive to save the day..

stoic halo
#

or goto Ebay

umbral reef
carmine dew
#

Or just get an S

stoic halo
#

or not

#

Because inside-out sucks

carmine dew
#

How do you know?

stoic halo
#

ive used inside-out before, and it fucking sucks lol

carmine dew
#

You haven't used the S

umbral reef
#

WMR saint jamie was right.
Plenty of those headsets are legit standing up against Oculus

carmine dew
#

So how do you knowm

stoic halo
#

its still inside-out lmao.

#

inside out is shitm and i hate it.

umbral reef
#

2 camera V 5 camera though Leah

carmine dew
#

But there is a thing called updated mechanics to it

umbral reef
#

But also still death spots..

carmine dew
#

There is a thing called improvements

stoic halo
#

its still inside-out.

vocal shard
#

I have and i must say its pretty good compared to any other wmr or even some sensor arrays for cv1

stoic halo
#

still inferior to outside in

vocal shard
#

its very close trust me

umbral reef
#

Catto- What games did you play though?

carmine dew
#

You haven't used the S so you don't how it's gonna be, it might not be as good the outside but it's gonna be a lot better then you think

stoic halo
#

or not because its not outside in

umbral reef
#

Was it high action stuff like Gorn or more relaxed stuff
Because tracking is SUPER important with high action games

#

The more relaxed the game the less people give a shit about tracking

carmine dew
#

I feel like leahs the kind of person that's like "ima right cause I'm right"

stoic halo
#

the only reason i'd get the Rift S, is if it supported external sensors.

#

or im the kind of person that hates inside out tracking.

vocal shard
#

Voodoovr did come at gdc too and we were both at the queue for the testing so you cant say @carmine dew

carmine dew
#

Well no one can really say till the official thing is said and done since oculus doesn't just remove something like external without thinking ahead

vocal shard
#

we can agree on that

carmine dew
#

Good good lol

umbral reef
#

They cant keep there certificate right and not brick headsets atleast once a year so...

carmine dew
#

🤝

umbral reef
#

At times i have my doubts...
Also, just read Zuccs idea of how he wants to handle VR and what way he wants to go
Plenty of leaked emails/investor notes to get an idea

#

They dont want power users, dont want to please current users, they just want as many people in note worthy VR so the industry can be pushed hard forward.
They also dont care if they are the leader in headsets or someone else aslong as they are allong for the ride

stoic halo
#

the only way i'll move to vive is if they get a controller with a joystick

#

WMR Controllers are a decent compromise

umbral reef
#

Valves Knuckles Controllers

#

The latest dev build got insanely good revieuws from devs and users...

stoic halo
#

yeah but how long will that take to come out fffff

umbral reef
#

Like 12 more years now that the final (dont quote me on this stuff i cant be assed to follow the devs build anymore) is done

stoic halo
#

i believe the 12 years lmao

#

i wonder how much they'll even be

#

probably the most expensive out of the controllers

vocal shard
#

with asgards wrath you can really notice the lcd

umbral reef
#

I really think it will be around 200 if they want to push games with it

stoic halo
#

yeah around there probably

#

but theres also things like pressure sensors

umbral reef
#

Id expect atleast 250 if they dont care if not more even

stoic halo
#

i still need a rpg vr game

#

that is medieval

vocal shard
#

i really hope for a pax release date or something like that for the knuckles

#

be soon 😄

vocal shard
#

is pimax even worth the money

odd oak
#

Ye. Probably if tracking is oké on it but i do not know much about it

vocal shard
#

Oh

lapis lintel
#

the pimax is around 600$ USD

wet jackal
#

something I wish VRChat had is a thing where you can like "hear" how loud your mic is, cuz' sometimes I either get earraped by someone who doesnt know, or I earrape others

lapis lintel
#

just 100 more then the vive

#

@wet jackal there is a certain world that lets you hear yourself

wet jackal
#

well is it good enough?

toxic halo
#

Idk I'm just gonna get one of those 'shinecon' headsets for now, and use riftcat

vocal shard
#

Going to ask for a little advice here. Should I wait for the Valve VR headset (blue) or save for a Vive (red)? @vocal shard

covert linden
#

I vote oculus

vocal shard
#

That's what I have and I hate it

covert linden
#

Why?

vocal shard
#

breaks easily and interferes with my full body tracking

covert linden
#

Ah

vocal shard
#

and Facebook is pretty garbo

#

the Apple of VR

covert linden
#

I got it for the comfort

#

Its not the apple of vr becase its cheap thatd be the vive.

#

Ive met more people whos vives break oppose to the oculus

vocal shard
#

Vive is like the PC, you'll probably spend more money on it due to its customization.

#

I'm at a crossroads with Mixed Reality

covert linden
#

Laptops cost moree and its not customizable :P

vocal shard
#

My headset recently stopped working and I blame an Insider update, and now I think I need to go to the Microsoft Store to get it it fixed

covert linden
#

Oh nu that sucks

#

Im buying a wmr friday

vocal shard
#

I'm praying they can get it fixed or I can get a refund that can get me a refund for an Oculus

#

The headset isn't worth that much anymore

true sky
#

I know WMR doesnt support it at all.

#

I dont think oculus has fbt support.

vocal shard
#

I mean Driver4VR might work

covert linden
#

Im getting the wmr becauze itll work with my intel 630 integrated graphics, until I get a pc. Ive already got the oculus

#

The oculus can do fbt with a hybrid setup @true sky

true sky
#

@vocal shard wht you dont use insider previews

#

Always bricks thw WMR headset

covert linden
#

But its not like in oculus itself to allow it in a sense

vocal shard
#

I wish I would've known that

#

I'm messaging a guy on Reddit who seems to know how to fix it

true sky
#

Insider preview is usually a hit or miss

#

One update works fine then next one or two bricks it.

vocal shard
#

I just joined because of a new Mixed Reality update that wasn't avaliable for regular users

#

Improved performance for me but now I regret it

reef flame
#

Inuyashabroly

vocal shard
#

I'm actually waiting for this guy to get back to me before I go to the Microsoft Store

#

Seems like everybody on r/WindowsMR loves him
