vrchat constantly crashing again
fun
i literally cant even get in game now awesome >.>
Hello, a friend of mine is stuck in "logging in as " and can't play. Anyone knows a way to fix this problem? It started few weeks ago after a patch.
are they still getting captchas when visiting vrchat.net?
Or cloudflare *
is vrchat safe I'm so confused
If you are on latest patch, you should be
thank you :3
!online
There are 7609 users in VRChat currently
Damn
@vocal shard that's one of cimomo's ooka miko edits I believe. You can find it at the miko paradise world
G’day
Yeah, VR chat is pretty safe.
@vocal shard SubCom has a bunch of avatars like that on their public avatar world.
i THINK this is the world https://www.vrchat.net/home/launch?worldId=wrld_e032318d-e1f7-47a4-b60f-60c42b3215ff but it's been a while since i've been there.
Those are (admittedly) Hoppou edits, with neko ears, and paws.
Not really the best looking either.
^
For a second there I thought I tagged you, Elire not ellie and I was about to say sorry! haha
so vr chat is safe?? or should I still watch out
@vocal shard There are some war-themed Mikos in Mikograd Avatars, and cutesy ones in Cimomo's avatar world. I think Ukon avatars are Ooka Miko edits as well
How do you mean 'Safe'?
From virus/hacks and such youre safe, just keep up with the latest version.
thanks, yeah honestly just haven't heard anything recently, just checking up
Just keep an eye on the Announcements room - VRChat is fantastic about keeping up with issues, I.E. the whole cloudfair issue. I am very happy with the staff's responsiveness.
Even look at Elire - replying to a silly message about cat avatars 😃
Very true.
I wouldn't 😏
For shame
Well you're boring, Gallium. And FPaul got you there.
You must respond
I am aware of the irony
It’s life or death when it’s this kind of question.
i can't run vrchat
Whatcha mean you can't run?
Hiya x
Hai
Just installed this so I'm a little new
Welcome!!
Thank you
I'm a little sad atm. Was having fun in vrchat making friends and whatnot but my game closed down now I can't find the one I was in but there was only 4 servers on that room I could choose. 😞
annoying
and the friends thing is really broken right now
Yeh I did add a few whole I was there but saying they r all offline
There was so many people o can't remember Thier names
and when you get friend requests it just keeps sending the same friend request even though you accepted it
Was nice to find people tho kept jumping into rooms that said there was people but could find no one. Lol I think I just sick at this atm
and also having to deal with the infinite loading screen
It's alright. The game is pretty confusing, I just downloaded it earlier, and gave it a test run. haha.
Yeh that's all I've done so far.
I want to find a cool Avatar, but I think you need to find worlds to change yourself? 🤔
There is a whole section for avatars in the worlds tab
Ye Lots and lots of avatar worlds to explorer, I also suggest to make sure you are playing on a vrchat account if you wish to eventually start uploading your own creations
How can you upload a video into VRChat when you’re on VR/HTC VIVE/Oculus?
upload a video into vrchat?
Oh, interesting. I ran around earlier on my Steam account. VRChat Account has more benefits?
You mean like recording yourself from vrchat?
I didn't even know you could do that
yes @feral quiver
Steam / Oculus accounts are basically guest accounts
you can no upload any own content and such
Oh, alright. Thanks for the heads up!
Sorry for the late reply, I was a little busy ^^’
But yeah, I mean uploading a video into VRChat as in a room, like choosing a YouTube and showing them in rooms like in the living room of the Japanese apartment room (I forgot what it was called but it’s quite popular) and in the music visualiser room.
i don't have a computer that can run vrchat at all
that is what i meant
the computer i am on is a standard HP
@digital marten Oculus has desktop vr mode which you can bring up a vr keyboad and copy and paste links if you don't feel like reaching for the keyboard, not sure about Vive and MR
SteamVR also has a desktop mirror.
WMR requires going to the physical keyboard
Damn, I do own a HTC VIVE but I’ll let my friend know since he doesn’t know how to post videos and he owns a Oculus.
I’ll let him know though ^^
And I know there’s a steamVR desktop mirror but I have no idea how to copy and paste
And I can’t paste URLS into the video screen of the VRChat room anyway
I’ve tried to copy from my keyboard and tried to paste onto VR but that doesn’t work since it still won’t let me paste urls either way
Gotta make sure to have the url bar selected in vr and have the game open as main window to paste
So, if I copy the url would I then need the to be open, used and pasted by VR and by the controls or do I need it open on the computer and paste it by mouse while being in VR? (Sorry if this sounds confusing, I just want to make sure.)
How do we go to the events they are having
Within #events is a pinned discord channel
Join that discord for more information about events and how to join them
hello
anyone know the best vr for its value? im looking to buy one, gonna wait for valve index prices but yeah
Oculus quest coming out will be 300$
Won't need computer for it either to play vrchat
Comes out this month @coral radish
you'll basically only see robots tho as barely anything runs on it 😃
Quest is nothing compared to PC vr
and while vrchat "just works" thats basically it 
it "just works" *somehow
but not good
*
If you want to play normal vr chat with that good luck to you.
Quest is releasing at $400 USD
anyone else suffering loading screens o-o
btw, not $300
im stuck on the login screen, rip
same ;-;
What type of account are you two using?
vrchat account
Hm, if the problem persists, I recommend you follow the steps at #vrchat-support and contact them directly if the steps on "client issues" don't resolve the issue.
Hi Afro ^-^
Mornin'
Mornin
salad dressing
Chicken nuggets
(has a question about vr)
is it worth getting only for vrchat, even if I don't have a working mic?
Most vr headsets have a mic
there is plenty of mutes
But yeah it's worth it
Wmr doesnt And I wasnt aware till I got it, doesnt matter though since ive got my own headset
Fair enough. Mics are so crazy cheap these days though. But I meet many mutes and they are no problem :) vrchat is perfect for a laugh or good time regardless of you can talk!
Im friends with a group of people who are actually genuienly mutes
They do sign language to eachother in vrc
I played vrchat mute since the start of the game, all the way to last year's september. It was just fine. All I did was wiggling my arms around, headpatting people and all that lol
any advice which one I should get? (has heard good things about htc vive, but it's not cheap and idk which version is worth it)
(pro seems really expensive, and doesn't seem to have too many improvements over the normal one)
Wait until May 1st to make a decision.
The vive isnt cheap xp
if you want cheap vive is not the right thing to put into the same sentence
😃
(wont be when index comes aswell)
probably will
htc vive is obsolete and overpriced, get the index when it comes out.
The htcs price wont decrease because of the valve
and for the love of all things, avoid vive pro. srsly
Cheap wouldd be wmr or used rift
Vive pro is a joke of a price for what you get now.
vive pro is not aimed at consumers
As a business I wouldn't buy it either lol.
Used vive tho if u want used tech.
you cant compare used vs new tho
/sarkasm on
especially with HTC's very solid and undestructible wands
/sarkasm off
lol just slap the word "pro" on it. +400 bucks
Original Vive isn't priced too bad.
somehow, i haven't broken any of my four vive wands yet. hmm
Why 4
Pretty much because there really isn't much difference between the pro and normal vive.
I have the OG vive, and the vive pro
Pro isnt for consumers
the only difference is the resolution. barely an upgrade, tbh and two cameras (completely useless) and... the color.
(I forget, how much is an original vive? (remembers 400ish?))
also the pro overheats ridiculously easy
$500 usd.
oof
bye!
Two years had gone by and no upgrades. I was done waiting lol
slapping the word Pro on it doesn't automatically make it worth more in any aspect either
No excuse to charge nonconsumers that much either.
They only just recently released handtracking software (and people said it wasn't that good...)
saw a bunch of other stuff when looking at the vive website, any thoughts on those?
Vive cosmos...... just a big meh, tbh. If they add fingertracking controllers, maybe I would be interested
I'll be changing slowly over to Valve's stuff when I can.
First up, new controllers. The vive wands and not good enough.
I just don't like the idea that they'll release one headset with eye tracking, and the other one doesn't have it(but it has the flip-up design, which the other one doesn't have... oof)
True. 3 years with the wands, and I'm still not used to them. I jsut can't. aaa
I'd get the valve HMD, but it needs wireless before I get it.
I hope they'll add it as a module later on, but I'm not that hyped about wirelessness since htc's fiasco with the 2.5 hour battery
Overpriced battery. I got an ankor battery.
i'd probably buy it if I could hotswap ingame, but I don't think you can ...
oh three other questions, I've heard a lot of people complain about low batteries for their remotes are there wired options? my computer sometimes lags when running vrchat, but I have a 1080 so idk what the problem could be with that? and I guess is a 1080 enough for vr?
1080 is definitely enough. I used to run a 980 ti on my OG vive
okay cool!
Though I'm thinking of a cpu upgrade next year.
what's your cpu, Kumi?
I want to say i7 but idk for sure
win + R and type in dxdiag to find out
(on mobile atm, give me a min to start up my computer)
oof
"i7" does say as much about your cpu as me saying "i have a xiaomi smartphone"
What about I drive a new car
good point i was more vague
lol
(or are there more by now? i dunno)
You know i get those responses at work
Whats wrong with your computer?
Uh it doesnt really look the same
(computer turned on and checked) i7-7700k
hmm
oo i've got a 7700k too, and it does the job really well
how many frames do you get btw?
Yeah cpu should check out.
desktop mode, I don't see it drop down (except when my screen turns green for some reason) (but I still teleport or other stuff jumps around)
screen turns green? you should update gpu drivers xD
ooh yeah
weird ripple/loud noises happen at the same time as well
Haha for me its always my reminder... you forgot the update again. Hmm, i mean its possible when the graphics shuts down and goes green the audio would bug
geforce says I'm up to date
does the whole PC freeze or is it just graphics?
not sure? (it looks like I have a weird green filter over my game (covers up/affects hud/menus too but it doesn't break anything?))
could either be a driver bug, or your graphics card is overheating and freaking out
hope it's just a broken cable and not your monitor or gpu
or a broken cable too
hey im having a issue i can't add any friends and they can't add me
slightly loose VGA cables can leave out a colour channel and make the screen purple or green sometimes
alot of people are having it, Kite
it only happens when extremely loud audio is playing tho, I use hdmi so loose vga cable shouldn't be it
does it affect everything, including the rest of Windows or when you close the game afterwards?
it lasts as long as the music/sounds, and only affects vrchat (no differences show up on second monitor)
doesn't happen in any other game?
nope
(not looking for a solution since it happens so rarely, just curious if anyone else has encountered it)
do you have the VRchat safety system enabled?
honestly sounds like it could be someone's custom shader in an animation modded to have extremely loud sound
Im wondering if its not one of those annoying animations I sometimes used to see
yes but mainly just audio/special affects/shaders are blocked
disabled for ALL users or the default settings?
trusted users still allow shaders by default when using the default safety settings
^
custom, friends are the only option with everything enabled
you sure it's not one of your friends using an avatar with one of those animations?
It really seems to point to animations
I have no friends in vrchat so I don't think so
oh
(not sure how animations could affect menus tho)
I was gonna say the easiest way to find out would be to test with someone but you dont have any friends at the moment
what graphics card do you have?
Maybe graphics memory is plataeuing
normal 1080 (unfortunately not the ti)
could just be a weird driver quirk that only affects your specific setup somehow
try launching VRchat while holding Shift and changing the graphics settings to somehting lower, then see if it happens
ahh yes i love it when i am procrastinating on my vrchat avatar in unity ._.
The friendlist broke...
Hey can anyone tell me wether this app is compatible with an iPhone please
Discord?
No vrchat
No
vrchat is a pc game lol
Yeah sorry.
Do they know that the friendlist broke...
They know, and they're aware. But give them time.
yeah
😃
I just got on tonight...
Can't join fucking anyone cus they disappear before I could click on them...
Hey rebound who is ur anime profile character
Joker, from Persona 5
Ah ok thanks
Sorry eating. Can’t type.
K
Lol rebound
Hey I’m going to go bye guys
Cya
Yo, is anyone else having problems with their friendslist
Yup. Quite a few.
man that sucks how have they not fixed it yet
Things take time unfortunately
Just gotta be patient and give them sometime. They are aware of the issue.
@viral pumice how did you get your hands on the joker model?
I know a guy 😏
Yeah gimme a sec
they say that if you delete the vrchat cache you can play faster again
thanks I'll try
@slate verge I’m done eating, wassup?
i'll dm you
Mmk
greetings
Ello
hello
It’s been alright so far , yours?
Yeah, nothing out of the ordinary but good yep
That’s good
hi
man this game is so scuffed lol I installed openvr I think that helped, friends list is still bugged though
Nah, it’s just early access. But yeah.
I get that it's early access but the whole game revolves around friend requests and it's the easiest thing to implement lol
you literally only need a mysql database for that
Well, don’t take this the wrong way but it’s easy to call something easy when you aren’t doing it
Yeah I get what you're saying but friend requests are by far the easiest thing to implement in anything
Sometimes it’s a bit more complicated. Things happen.
they could probably have even pulled some library from github
Hmm. You should write them and tell them that.
I was being sarcastic. But yeah they are in occasionally but they shouldn’t be pinged
Hey uhhhmm does anyone have the invite link for the discord?
Which discord?
This one here
Tryna invite someone here who would like to watch for any server announcements
Wait
If they google vrc discord it’s the first to show
Nvm I found it lmao
henlo
Hi
is friend list broken?
It’s having some issues it seems, yes
yeah
Quite a few have reported it
uhh its like my friends unfriended me or something
Friend requests and friends list are having issues
its making me think that they unfriended me or something
also i get constant loop of friend request even though ive already accepted it
Yup
Its happening rn
But we should wait for them to fix it
I know they're working hard on the issue
Logins for vrchat.net are scuffed too
You have to 'verfy' your email when you try to login on your steam account
but it doesn't send out the verification email
I think the friends list works on vrchat.net though cause on my non-steam account my friends were listed
some of my current friends are showing not friend rank on my screen
but the ones 2 days ago and today
i got a friend request, accepted it confirmed both are my friends now
but minutes later its like they unfriended me
then hours later i got an anonymous friend request from the same person, accepted it, confirmed, but the friend notification does not go away
Hey that's better than what I get. I can only see one friend and randomly I'll see a bunch of duplicate requests from where I've tried to add people but accepting them does nothing
try logging into vrchat.net and see if you can access your friendslist there
Lol.
same shit different smell 🙃
I’ve never smelled .net
@ruby needle Is there any pattern to which team member grows a gray hair, is it random, or do they all grow one at once? If there's a pattern, is it alphabetically by a member's username or by time they joined?
Lmao.
It's random.
But its so old that often all of them do
hi, im new to vrchat
Welcome 🙏
can u help me :/
welcome to hell
Perhaps? What’s going on?
I just want to login so i can do some wholesome activities 😦
😛
game wont login
@old inlet i may need sum advice, im new after all.
and im figuring how do i get in the vrchat e.e
vrcchat=new world to me
Oh ok, did you need help with anything specifically?
@old inlet sdk not workin?
or something..
custom avatar
too many things to learn....
Oh, you should probably just hit up the sdk documentation then
no it's ok. Currently I think it might be better if you use a standalone account rather than steam
understood
is anyone else having login issues?
i will try.
Yeah it's all scuffed, friendslist, login, memory leaks
im also having strange internet issues, australia ftw
is it saying something about account verification?
so Im using the steam version of VR chat and using the shift and double click on it doesnt open a graphics menu, can anybody help me with that?
you just need to hold down shift while it launches
open it then hold down shift
so hold shift, click play, then release when you see the options appear
and it's left shift I think
k thanks
ello
!online
There are 8312 users in VRChat currently
Wow
i think there is a channel for bot commands n_n
how does one change to a different avatar
because so many people have avatars not in the public section
help?
@stuck atlas Avatar worlds.
k
you can either favourite world avatar so it can be saved for you or you can upload avatar @stuck atlas
when someone walks into the room with a literal 3 million polygon avatar, sound effects, screen shake, glowing outlines... monkaS
Sounds fun
hello-
Sounds like a very obvious malicious avatar, you should report it
When are the oculus rift headsets coming back into stock
Highly unlikely.
Wdym
It's going to be replaced by the RIft S
Hell, the game itself should report back to the servers if anything with more than 1 million polygons join a public world (In private, I don't care what you do, and other users won't be affected by it, so neither do I think it's an area which should be moderated)
Because
We were at best buy and he said (An employee)the new models were coming soon
But like, when?
I agree with that, caffeine
and the same with a certain amount of particles. sometimes I see people with million particles too
They might be waiting to see the specs of the index
if the index is enough powerful, they might withdraw their hmds and improve them (probably not tho lol)
People are saying between 500 to 700
Man.. I just wanted the old oculus rift
Like, it was 350 or so when we went in best buy
I don't want something more expensive!! MrDestructoid MrDestructoid MrDestructoid MrDestructoid MrDestructoid
Honestly the price is a huge factor. They can squeeze anything into the index, 8k, 200 fov, brain interface, eye tracking, wirelessness etc but people will mostly go after cheaper and more affordable headsets anyways.
Mhm, and my mom just wants to free frikin pokeman Netflix shiz on the headset 😒
Imagine if the index have an impressive res and even eye tracking and only costs 600 bucks for a full package. Everyone else will have a tough competition. Which is a good thing, so they will lower their prices.
https://www.ebay.com/p/Oculus-Rift-Touch-3010009501-Virtual-Reality-Headset/12020824187?thm=3000&chn=ps do you think this could mb do the trick?
nah that's overpriced and obsolete. Wait for the rift s
But the rift s is gonna be like 700 
The rift s will be sold at 399
Google.
XD welcome back rae
hi 😄
The rift s is a downgraded rift why would it be 700
he said it was 399
?
The oculus rift is bettee than the oculus s
hmm why's it a downgrade? From the looks of it, it's an upgrade. Not much of an upgrade though..
@upbeat dust No ipd, inside out tracking
BUT I CANT FIND FRIKIN SUPPLY OF THE OCULUS BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage BabyRage
@vocal shard Gethe oculus rift used if you can
-_-
well the ipd was supposed to be controlled by software... and I "heard" from rumours that you could pair it with the old oculus sensors
guess we'll find out if that's the truth.
they say that isn't working yet, but that it would be possible to do later
I just want an oculus rift that will let my eyes not be burned with 1p quality and 0fps and let me do the epic default dance
No, the rift doesnt work for 30%. It is 100% a downgrade. Its not shit. Its the same as a windows mixed reality and actually made by levono @upbeat dust
@vocal shard the fps is based on your system not the headset. The oculus is super good
Ik I always get that mixed
...
Wait what, it's made by lenovo? oof
https://gyazo.com/e5a2d3053881e65e5c879461df23e335 SSSsss SSSsss SSSsss SSSsss SSSsss SSSsss
Yes it is
If you can get the oculus rift its super good
did u look at the image
sources say co-developed by lenovo, but not who actually makes it
ah, I've not seen one yet
Hopefully the index will push these lazy VR developers to create better hardware. I'm really disappointed by both oculus and htc..
but if it were co-developed between two companies, I guess you'd expect both companies' logos irrespective of who actually makes it
How do I convince my mom not to get the new one ;-;
The oculus is headed towards the cheaper market thats their goal
@vocal shard the oculus S isnt bad, just the rift is better.
I dunno, I want the resolution of the S
@vocal shard its a pc right not a laptop?
it's too bad they couldn't just give us a bump of the resolution without messing with the rest
@south viper Is inside out tracking worth the trade?
R u talking about my pc or my moms laptop
I don't want them to sacrifice performance and impressive hardware just to lower the cost though
inside-out tracking can be an improvement, so I dunno, is it even a trade?
@vocal shard wha youll usee the oculus with
I can't exactly take my current headset on holidays
oh pc
Its not an improvement, theres blind spots and such
but I need to convince her since she is gonna use it as well
She just wants to watch netflix btw**
The oculus most likely wont work on her laptop.
just netflix lol
Yeah just netflix
get a Go
The oculus, will not work on her laptop almost certain
So even if shes using it for netflix, the oculus wont be compatible.
It needs to be a gaming laptop
Do not get the oculus unless its a special designed one by omen. Specs do not matter. Many cases the hdmi is connected to the cpu and it wont work AT. ALL. @vocal shard
Your only option if you need it to run on laptops, is a windows mixed reality headset.
If youre not gonna run it on a laptop the oculus will work
Alright so it should be good then,
Yep
Tell her that its got an ipd, meaning it can be adjusted for her eyes and itll feel better on her eyes
Anything else
The rift s doesnt have that and 30% of users cant use it
it has software ipd adjustment, just not hardware
There was a developer who made it, who said 30% cant use it.
but they did say some % of users won't be great with it
yeah I'm just trying to curb the false statements 😃
just because 30% of people can't use it doesn't mean that particular person is in the 30%
From what ive heard theres no ipd at all, not sure how it works digitally
No but why buy something you may not be able to use lol
in the first place saying a VR headset "has no IPD" makes no sense
Wmr has no ipd tho
in the first place, saying a VR headset "has no IPD" makes no sense
if you know what the term actually stands for
Youre the first person ive ever met who says that lol, thats coming straight from the mouths of everyone else ive heard talk about it
the only kind of VR headset with no IPD would be one designed for a cyclops
Better suited the words no adustible ipd I suppose
joins vrchat and go to the pug and after 10 min someone came to crash everyone -_-
no hardware adjustable IPD, at least
Does wmr even have a software one?
not sure about WMR, I never followed it
software IPD is easy though, you just change the distance between the two images
it's just not perfect for comfort because the lens isn't moving with the image
From my understanding it doesnt, but I cant be 100% since mine works fine as is
You guys seem to know alot about vr headsets Squid1 Squid2 Squid3 Squid4
rift's IPD adjusting slider has this annoying property of occasionally moving by itself if I move suddenly
but at the same time I'll probably be in the unlucky 30% who can't use the S anyway, so it won't solve anything for me
more portability was a nice idea too 😦
Ive got both wmr and the oculus, but due to my laptops hdmi thing I cant use the oculus until my pc is built. The wmr is Really nice, wmr 2 is coming out soon and you may want that for more portability
having headsets which randomly don't work for 30% of the population isn't great because the opportunities to try before buying are so limited
when I bought the rift, there was literally no store allowing testing it
I agree the rift S is a bad deal. What people keep overlooking is how much poorer the audio quality is as well. Reviewers have said it is tinny at higher volumes instead of rich with Bass like current speakers.
@vocal shard headset that you cant connect to a computer, its standalone
the audio is my major gripe with it in fact
Ohhhhhh
Think about that for immersion especially in a club in VR chat and Beat Saber
even if you overlook the quality being worse, they moved it to the kind where it just blasts the sound so everyone can hear it
So, people are literally saying the resolution of the new rift S is worse then a stand alone? cmonBruh cmonBruh cmonBruh
At best the rest is a wash. I'm using the Rift + vive trackers, so I don't want to rock the boat with inside out trackign regardless.
Quest resolution is higher than Rift S right
I think so
that's the bit I can't get over
If I don't get into a bind before my next student loands, I'm in good shape. I have two CV1's and and additional set of controllers. So I should be able to hold out for a real upgrade. I'm interested in the index, but I bet I'm best to not worry about anything that has been disclosed yet.
the sensible thing for anyone to do right now is buy nothing and wait for the next stuff to come out
If they can't find a CV1 but don't want to wait then a cheap window MR would be the most sensible way to bridge the gap.
anyone else unable to add friends
I am not even able to join worlds, that's why I'm on chat here
Hopefully the index will be great.
Valve Index VR headset.
valve's headset .. the name is dumb though, gotta agree
It has been teased but no real specs have been revealed.
Valve? The creator of tf2?
The knuckles seem interesting, but also seem clumsy to me. I'll wait to see if others get excited about them first. I can see how strapping them to your hand might work great.
ELIRE senpai
But it's kind of crummy to have teased knuckles to keep the faith for Vive users only to not release them until Valve has its own headset too.
@ivory frost they arent made for the vive tho lol so it makes sense
Why did I see the oculus rift in the best buy stores if it was out of stock?? MrDestructoid
it's out of stock at oculus
@vocal shard probably either the go or something. They dont make rifts anymore.
anyone that hasn't finished selling their stock will still have it until they run out
There are few places ypu can get them if youre lucky
It had the go, but there was a rift too
things were fucked here anyway, normal stores never stocked it and I had to buy it direct
so no way I'm getting a spare second one now
I've never seen it stocked in a store either.
Why did they sell out so quickly\
I had no idea the rift S was coming. I upgraded my PC and decided to get a second CV1 so company could use my old gaming rig.
how many models did they make before they stopped
But no one has come out anyway, so right now it is most valuable as a spare.
@vocal shard theyve been selling it for years lol
They stopped making them entirely they didnt disclose how many were left.
My concern is if the quest is a success then VR will be heavliy limited to what runs on a smart phone for a while.
Hmm alright
Hopefully the quest inspires people to upgrade
New games and concepts will be designed to run on mobile instead of take advantage of PC power..
I agree Rae, but if they don't know what they are missing. Quest will still be a great intro to VR..
is anyone having issues with their friends list lately here?
Yeahh true
Me
I'm actually hoping the Quest will be a good upgrade from Go
but don't plan to game much on it
It definitely will be an upgrade from Go Hakania
Idk if the go is compatible with vr chat MrDestructoid
Here's where Oculus may have burned themselves though. Mobile is the world of Apple, Samsung, and Google. If they make VR explode on mobile they will make competition explode too.
sounds like a good outcome
@vocal shard it is, just more of a.. beta testing for quest versio
But it will be mobile competition.
Alright
@ivory frost They want to appeal to the lower demographic, like pc to mobile
It's not good for VR if it gets limited to mobile technology to any degree.
nobody said anything about it getting limited to it, and I don't even know if that statement is true yet
I understand Rae. I can't blame them. It's just really an unknown I think.
Yeaah
more competition means better hardware, which can work on non-mobile too
The reason I keep saying limited is because game developers want to sell games not hardware.
I'm personally waiting for a system I can use while I'm not in the house
So if the users are on mobile then that's what they need their games to run on too.
to the people who are in the pug beware of this person (deadyeyevixen) he was using an avatar that crashes people
@cosmic sail #moderation-reports
Take Beat Saber. It appears it runs good on Quest. But one of the things they removed was the lighting from the walls on Quest.....well they removed it from the lighting on the walls in the new levels too. It's not huge but it is a compromise for all platforms just to have it on Quest.
@cosmic sail Witchhunting isn't permitted here. Chances are, he/she will notice this and change his/her name
The original songs on PC have enhanced graphics verses the same songs on Quest, but all the new songs are the same on both platforms. So they took away from PC to support Quest in a comparable experience.
ohhhh sorry , i just wanted to warn people
next time i will do it in the other channel
Send a report to moderation@vrchat.com with any proof you have, output logs, video or screenshots
This way, malicious users can be removed from the platform
VRChat needs these reports to be made aware of the trouble makers, think of it as like sending evidence to the police to allow them to make an arrest
will do after im done playing
If you were crashed yourself, attach the output log from that play session to the email
Do they use discretion in these things though. Yesterday there was someone who kept saying they were nearly crashed, nearly crashed....and finally they did crash. They knew their setup was the issue verses the animations in the PUG at the time. So no one crashed them maliciously. Will the VRChat police even try to determine intent when a crasher is reported?
I ask because I would hate to be banned just because someone can't accept their PC isn't up to the task of disabling safety features.
Of course they would try to determine intent. They try their hardest to ensure that no one is banned without sufficient evidence
If someone feels they were banned unfairly, they can send an appeal to moderation@vrchat.com and the case will be re-examined
No problem
hi ya all.

Check vrc pictures i need help
Thanks Eret. That's good to know. I was enjoying an avatar yesterday where I could remotely direct an explosion of light. It was in no way intended to crash anyone, but there were a number of people paranoid about crashers in the PUG where they were already severely lagged
hey, does anyone know where someone can get a wheatley avatar? or at least a half decent model of him?
Last time I ever intentionally crashed anyone was in the days if dial-up. About twenty probate messages at once would do the trick in AOL, lol
Hey so
Twenty instant messages
I've been waiting on my verification email for about 2 hours now with a definite correct email and multiple resends
is this a common problem?
I havent played vrchat in a while... did something happen to dynamic bones? scripts are refusing to load
check out the blogpost on the dynamicbone limiter
oh, no
@untold kelp ty for help
no problem ^^
My friendslist keeps randomly disappearing and cant favorite avatars well
^same
Vrchat is just broken as all hell right now
i have to open and close the game multiple times just to try get in, my friends list hardly ever works, when it does work then invites dont work and even if they do work then my game just randomly black screen when i try accept the invite or try join them and the only way to fix that is to close the game and start the whole process all over again
@sly musk does it login loop?
just stays on login screen and does nothing
i have to close it and re open it to try again
o: and then it logs u in with no looping?
no
i have to try at least 5 times before it will log me in
today it was 10 times i had to try
ill dm u.
Not the only one. It's happening to me as well with my friends list.
i could handle the login issues and the friends list issues if my game didnt decide if it wanted to black screen at the flip of a coin
whats more annoying is the auto-on videoplayer worlds like voidclub or the sinister worlds not letting you load in properly, the game loads your avatar, then proceeds to load ALL videos before itll let you leave spawn or interact with anything, so much for a night of drinking with friends when theyre in a world you cant join, thanks devs
last patch was really 10/10
i was trying to drink with friends tonight as well but VRChat basically said "nope. you cant have fun with your friends"
oml i got in ;w;
are anyones elses rooms barely loading at all?
Log in -> All friends in private worlds -> Log out
Scratch that *NOT loading at all
@languid beacon i feel that. But you have to understand some of those friends are actually either bonding with other friends or things.
and thats one of many things vrchat offers to the players and thats a very sweet thing.
neat
Literally 0 rooms arent even showing for me at all in the menu
oof
i dont understand, my internet is fine
could just be a server hiccups or issues being looked at.
There does seem to be a few weird things going on about the API, perhaps world listings are getting affected
isnt vrchat under attack rn??
I'm not aware of anything out of the ordinary.
Just tryed to enter a room now... :PP 0.00 B / 0.00 B
so it DOES work its just real slow today i guess
There are also a lot of users online.
I appear to be able to load worlds fine at the moment, it might be localized on your end.
If all else fails, it's usually a good idea to follow the steps in #vrchat-support , and contact the support team directly if those steps didn't help.
Is VRChat being insurmountably slow for anyone else? +10 minute logins, +5 five minute teleports, +2 minute avatar loading
Literally just talking about that now @languid beacon hahaha
ah
hey all
There are 6942 users in VRChat currently
im new
apparently it's just me
nah dude
@languid beacon Did you clear the cache?
whats wrong
its me aswell, cant load any rooms... only get 0.00 / 0.00 B
Vrchat is going through some shit rn so i guess its being patient
it loads it just takes like 10 minutes of being at 0.00/0.00 B before it kicks you to a second loading screen that immedately loads
cause people are Ddosing nd what not
Servers must still be freaking out.
Phoenix Arizona
o wow so no where near me
are u using the website?
I thought it was only in australian regions that its extremely slow
have u tried using the website?
I'm not sure what you're asking
u are talking about the discord app right?
I'm talking about VRChat
then what did u reinstall?
VRchat
from where?
Steam
ok
I mean it's either team or Oculus Store. there's nowhere else to play it
What seems to be the problem?
what u mean play it? i thought its only chat
p l o n k
?
Rad are you trolling...?
This discord is for the VR social application called VRChat, which is available for Oculus Rift and Steam VR.
I suspected it's a child but yes it's obviously a troll
lol
carry on
its gotta be a vrchat problem i would've thought
While ofcourse a good portion of this server tends to discuss VR in general, but the server is based on the application itself.
What seems to be the problem...
VRChat is EXTREMELY slow... @paper field Rooms wont load in on the menu or when I join them
or avatars
Yeah I'm getting the same thing as @vocal shard
hmm
But apparenetly it's not happening to anyone else
Were you one of the users who were cloudflare blacklisted...?
Also getting this every time https://i.redd.it/4n7b4cwojkt21.png
The cloudflare issue had fairly different symptoms from what I can recall.
Yeah all my friends got hit with the cloudflare/capcha block
I actually didn't get hit with it at all because i didn't log in that week
Have you recently been doing recaptchas on many sites?
In any case, if the steps in #vrchat-support doesn't work, I'd encourage contacting the support team about this.
but now they're all in fine and i have THIS issue
ok
that message is kinda suspicious
It's really not.
It's just placeholder text for when the server didn't send the real one
Did you ensure to clear your cache as part of the reinstall
It's a placeholder announcement that is incorrectly shown during connection problems I find.
Yes, cleared cache, reinstalled VRChat, rebooted PC, tried oculus version instead of steam version, it's all the same
Cause someone got bored on their keyboard while writing it I assume
lol
that or its a virus or bug
asdhfjlkasdfhjklasdfhjklasdfhjklasdhfkjl
It's technically a bug that it's shown in the first place, but it is no virus.
Rad the devs of the game have said it's a placeholder lmao
I would believe you have some ports blocked or a firewall on... ISP could possibly blocking it due to mishaps the other week
true
try changing your dns under network adapter settings
Friend 2 streets down is on same ISP, was actually hit with the cloudflare ban, but is playing VRC fine tonight
I recommenwd the google dns 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8
have u ever checked ur ping when its loading?
These blocked messages are getting annoying. Why can't they just not display
Make sure you ain't downloading anything. I've noticed sometimes even on amazing connections vrc tends to slow down due to certain other services downloading
what blocked messages?
try the dns and report back
also check ur ping
if its high that could be the problem
i know that when me and others play this one game the ping will sometimes get really high and the game lags or freezes
so if the ping is high during loading that will slow it down
just emailed vrchat support
k
Can confirm google's DNS does not fix problem
try releasing your dhcp and try 'ipconfig /flushdns' in cmd
dhcp?
Does that need any kind of restart to take effect?
no
to release dhcp and renew type these commands in cmd... 'ipconfig /release' and 'ipconfig /renew'
you shouldn't need to restart
It's perfectly safe, I've used it before. I just forget what it does.
Those commands should be fine.
Should just make your computer request a new local IP from your router, not sure how it'd help, but I suppose it's uncertain what the problem is at the moment.
its basically a local area ip the router gives a machine
🤔
dhcp is the automatic method of distributing
try going to network area in windows and see what ethernet 2 is
fuze did u not see what afro posted
Oh, I see, Eithernet 2 is my VPN. Which I have disconnected. Because I don't want to use it right now.
is it fully disabled in network adapters
@vocal shard oh this is about the avatar?
i dont know how to get custom avatar
dns flush/renew didn't seem to work either
and 2nd, i cant even get in the game .-.
If you can't get in the game, you aren't alone
i got a freaking steam
@vocal shard to get in the game you can login with two choices. VRchat account or steam account.
try reimporting the sdk @vocal shard
i entered my account also password from the vrchat.net website
i totally have no idea.
hmm sounds like it might a steam problem
I'm preetty sure Steam accounts can't use the website
Your best bet is to wait until you can get into VRChat with your steam account, and upgrade it to a VRChat accoutn from there. once you do, you'll be able to use the website.
@languid beacon Whens the last time the router had a sleep cycle?
do what adeon says~
Probably like. Over a year ago
e.e
I'll just like.. yoink power.
technology needs sleep too yah know
thats a pic link.
Wait, after 20 minutes, it just dumped me into VRChat Home
longest startup loading ever
oh ok
but i'm forever a blue man and walking into the hub sent me to another eternal loading screen
(:
(':
it seems like somewhere your packets took the long way reaching
had a similar problem before with cloudflare attacks
what should i choose e.e
select unity or drag drop it @vocal shard
ok
If you are seeing that page, it means you CANNOT upload content right now. It won't work. It's telling you it won't work!
You have to do what it says first
@vocal shard With your unity open, go to the "Assets" dropdown menu, select "Import Package", select "Custom package", and find the VRCSDK unitypackage that you downloaded.
@velvet quarry His image shows his account doesn't have upload perms yet
I am glad its fixed for you @languid beacon
understood.
True, but one can still set up the SDK at the least.
ok i just found that u can play from the website and u dont have to download
Oh the issue is absolutely not fixed unfourtinate. the issue is all loading screens are taking upward of 20 minutes, and things like invite requests never get sent or received at all
the invites are a global problem
jost go vrchat.com and make an account and click play
There... is no "web" version of VRChat
Rad stop trolling
yes there is. im on it rn
I can say with relative certainty that there isn't.
to register...
no
@vocal shard That does not appear to be Unity, do you have Unity installed?
YES
That is not the SDK
im freaking out rn.
I don't know where you got it, but that's not the SDK.
from here. http://prntscr.com/netot5
look here then if u dont believe me
That is indeed rather odd, I just checked and it shouldn't be a .rar file.
@vocal shard None of that is the game, it's listing worlds that are in the game, but you're unable to play the game from said browser window.
silly me .-.
thats just a limited client that opens the normal
to access features like friends... messages... etc
You import that in Unity
put that in unity right.
here is the lauch link to open the world
create a new unity project, then do Assets -> Import Package -> Custom Package -> Pick that file
vrchat://launch?ref=vrchat.com&id=wrld_d6d3a39b-efdd-41ce-a576-f150bc2d5f1a:64697
i dun understand.
yes the launch link used to open the actual client
im gonna go in the retarded mode.
If you've never used Unity before you might be in over your head here.
@vocal shard That link, will again, only open the game client itself if it's installed through either Oculus RIft's client or Steam.
you still need vr chat installed @vocal shard
Rad please stop... you are not contributing
VRChat is alot of people's first brush with Unity, but you'll need a little more patience and willingless to look up tutorals than you're showing RN
I've had rad blocked for a while now he's just flooding
@vocal shard I highly suggest you watch a tutorial on how to import. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBZu_wNzERw
All problems your having get spoken about in this one and will make it leaps easier to do
kk
@vocal shard The "Unity Hub" is not "Unity" so to speak, you need to download Unity LTS 2017.4.15f1, which you can do from here: https://unity3d.com/unity/qa/lts-releases?page=2
i though i need to update my unity first.
From what I can tell he doesn't have unity installed he has unity hub
with no unity installation
@vocal shard The game has to use Oculus or Steam networking functions.
Even if you just use an .exe to run the game it will be launched via steam or Oculus.
Throwing in that link is a version of an .exe that direct links towards the game. So as everyone here is saying, there is NO standalone game, NO web-version and it just starts up Steam/Oculus version.
e.e
@vocal shard I also want to make sure you understand that even if you set this up, you're not going to be able to upload anything until you have more active, non-idle hours in VRChat
@umbral reef Hes trolling... Don't mind him
in a way yes
I believe it can be used to download and manage certain unity versions, but it is not required for VRChat in general, I've never used it.
. imma uninstall it .-.
Unity HUB is a tool for jugging multiple versions of unity. if you're not into that, you have no need for Unity HUB.
I use it since beat saber mods need a different version of unity than vrchat
were getting somewhere
taking forever...
wait.
then how am i suppose to get custom avatar .-.
eh.. maybe the video could help.
Alright I'm gonna explain this one more time
n0 n0 n0
you need to import or create from scratch
im gonna go on the YOUTUBE
and see.(hope it doesnt blow my mind up)
u should be able to right click on the avatar and copy image
n0 trolling new player :>
this is a lengthy process and requires patience and many hrs @vocal shard
kk
Will anyone play with me VRChat?
im bored
.. 45 more mins and im gonna go to learn .-.
@vocal shard This video walks you though the entire Unity install/ avatar upload process. The only exception here is the video is old so it tells you to install an older version of unity (which isn't correct) but all of the other steps are fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WnpAxgFYiM
I tried to make the video as short as possible. 3 minutes
@languid beacon look what video I send
It's up to date and just as good
It's long but relevant atleast
I would focus on using your vrchat account enough to enable avatar upload first. That will get you on your feet a little, uploading other people's avatars is much easier and will ease you into learning unity
But until you play more, you can't even do that yet
I know something has to be wrong with my account. 10+ minute world loading is not normal
also everyone stays blue for a very long time
you could try writing a support ticket... First I would try running a vpn to see if it rules out isp configuration or possible half blacklist / connection issues. @languid beacon
i can connect, it's just insanely slow, a VPN would be slow just because it's a VPN (i don't own any paid ones, just super slow ones)
and they're all strictly data limited and vrc would run out a month before i log in
what do you do to report a hacked client?
how do u know its hacked?
But if it's "someone copied me even though my cloning was turned off" they're not gonna do anything about it. If you have anything else though, you will need proof
rapidly droped portals, they did not have a timer on them, instlay requested friend request on everybody in the instance
That's a custom client yeah
its not?
not that i know of
i mean, its not normal vrchat powers, so it sounds like a hack
Rad is kinda just shitposting replies. Disregard them.
omg
ah
