Yeah, I know someone who swings his arms around his back, going back and forth.

worthy oracle
#

but yeah if you guys are interested in some feedback from a vive user go check out that link

covert linden
#

I met a guy yesterday ingame with it, he can put his hands on his face and all the way behind him

worthy oracle
#

found the vid intuhresting

covert linden
#

You can do swinging even on the wmr thanks to the imu

quick kayak
#

cable is a bit longer on the S too.

worthy oracle
#

the passthrough seems LITTY

quick kayak
#

Yeazh, I like that

First off, IPD adjustment is way better.
Secondly, I can actually use my glasses with it
Third, Headphones fit snugly on it
Fourth, The headset itself is cozy as heck
Fifth, The tracking's way better than i thought it'd be, and i can actually reach behind myself a bit.
Sixth, Guardian. It's so great because i press a button, and bam i can see my room, and walk around.
Seventh, Controllers feel great and natural, unlike with the vive controllers where i feel like i'm holding two big sticks
8th, Don't even notice the Refresh rate change from 90 to 80, It still feels smooth and cozy.
And finally, No base stations to set up.

  • that virtual desktop but that’s on most vr headsets
covert linden
#

Thats from the guy I met who owns the vive and got the oculus S

worthy oracle
#

people are abandoning vive for rift s

covert linden
#

Yeah, thats what he did

#

First thing he said was "wow I can actually read!"

worthy oracle
#

and do you guys remember when the trailer came out? everyone hated on it so much lmfao

#

gg oculus

#

they are for the consumers with a good price and good choice

languid beacon
#

People with quests, what % of vrc avatars can you see roughly?

covert linden
#

Id ask compatible

quick kayak
#

Rea, why you making me get a Rift S lol

kind wedge
#

I'd say I can see 1 in ever 5 avatars at the moment, but I haven't been it a whole lot of public worlds. Mostly hanging with friends. Also, keep in mind the quest has been out for two days. You aren't going to see a ton of content for it on VRChat yet lol

quick kayak
#

So much positive talk makes me really want it xD

covert linden
#

Cuz I want one bad too. Im selling my rift for it

kind wedge
#

VRChat took a few years before it had the current amount of avatars to choose from

quick kayak
#

I just posted I'm selling mine on some sites.

kind wedge
#

The quest version of VRC is essentially starting from zero regarding content. Give it some time.

quick kayak
#

Someone with a quest said he went to the box and it has a load of players, so it was bad.

covert linden
#

Im planning too soon. Just waiting to see if I can hear back on the person who wants it for 450

quick kayak
#

I put mine up for $400, got a 3rd sensor and a vr cover, so it's definitely worth it.

languid beacon
#

I can content. I mostly just want to be using quest standing around vrc friends help coax them into having android builds : D

quick kayak
#

Quest has active cooling, I wonder if people will find a way to overlock, regardless of how much they can get away with.

covert linden
#

It already is overclocked is it not

quick kayak
#

Then again, games will be pretty much optimized for it, so there would be no need.

languid beacon
#

Yeah it’s basically a console

quick kayak
#

I just see the word android and think exploits lol.

covert linden
#

Mine woud be 450$ for a NEVER before used brand new out of the box rift, but tje 450 is canadian dollar

languid beacon
#

What benefit is there to over clocking a platform where everyone has the exact same hardware and the content was specifically meant for your device

quick kayak
#

I thought out loud lol then logic slapped me in the back of my head.

languid beacon
#

Heh

quick kayak
#

Right when I hit enter, I was like wait no... lol

covert linden
#

Im saving up for my new pc too so the rift s has to wait. I wanna get it off amazon so im waiting till sales on amazons pickup again

languid beacon
#

To be fair you could get faster loading times in single player games but that’s about the only time you’d see any benifit

quick kayak
#

Doesn't warrant the lower battery life tbh.

#

Screen is oled, so they'll enjoy the pure black loading screens lol.

deep otter
#

i finally ranked up into being a blue user

#

can upload some stuff now

vocal shard
#

Pentile OLED uses less power than LCD. So that may have been a design choice to help a little bit with the battery

quick kayak
#

Yeah, it does use less power overall.

#

A lot of people questioned why the Quest used oled and the S didn't, but I guess they didn't know that fact.

indigo inlet
#

hello

#

nvm

light river
#

Has there been a comparison between the Rift S and the higher end WMR headsets?

#

I have the samsung odyssey but i’m really not sure it’s worth upgrading

quick kayak
#

All WMR are basically the same, same shitty software, Rift S is the new king of IOT.

vocal shard
#

Some on Reddit who have the Odyssey+ and Rift S have compared

#

Basically, odyssey+ is still much better visually, but everywhere else the Rift S is better and they prefer it

heavy dawn
#

compares Jamie's pfp's hair to the green of Sonic's eyes in that movie trailer

vocal shard

light river
#

I see, i’m thinking about giving away the odyssey to a friend and buying a rift S

heavy dawn
#

Heh... they made Sonic's eyes neon green so much so that it doesn't colour match the live action BGs.

vocal shard
#

Cool
I have an odyssey and might do the same

covert linden
#

Im selling my rift for the S

vocal shard
#

I just hope the Oculus software runs better now. My rift seems to run much worse than my wmr in some cases

heavy dawn
#

odyssey was a WMR? Neat.

ruby needle
#

Okay I'll trade my S key for your rift

heavy dawn
#

That's a pretty good gift to a friend. Also a good way to get a freind in VRC with you 😄

vocal shard
#

Yeah odyssey is wmr with Vive pro screens

covert linden
#

Not your s key the oculus rift S u baguette

ruby needle
#

Excuse me, wtf cirREE

vocal shard
#

I'm lost now

ruby needle
#

That's not what was in the offer cirREE

heavy dawn
#

Vive regular screens have pretty low resolution hexagonal pixels. But I can ignore that after about a minute or two of playing. Better res would be nice though.

covert linden
#

sneezes on fpaul

ruby needle
#

Ban incommig

heavy dawn
#

I hate when a display uses non square pixels. 😐

covert linden
#

NUU

uncut gorge
#

they aren't hexagonal, they are just in a weird arrangement

vocal shard
#

does anyone know why vrchat keeps using only 2 mb/s to download worlds and stuff, even though I got 10 mb/s max ?

uncut gorge
#

Depends on a lot of factors. I typically download pretty fast from VRChat servers, but sometimes it'll be slow.

#

could be anything on your end, their end, or anywhere in between

vocal shard
#

a guy told me could be hdd writing speed so i guess its that, even though avatars load kinda slow aswell ~ not sure if that has to do with hdd aswell

uncut gorge
#

they are temporarily cached on your hdd so maybe

compact axle
#

is it very common that questions or informations get ignored in support tickets?

rigid crescent
#

How long has it been

compact axle
#

it got answered in like 4 days but it feels like it was a weird copy and paste answer that i got

#

and that answer had nothing to do with my problem

rigid crescent
#

Sounds about right lol

compact axle
#

so it is common yes? lol

rigid crescent
#

Yeah I thought you just meant flat out not replied to lol

#

It's a gamble from what I've seen of friends sending in tickets. Hope you get the good mods basically

#

Could try sending it again I guess

compact axle
#

community answered my question in the end but still.. i was actually talking about the latest update and even typed the current version i was on in bold letters and basically got told to try it on the newest update (same version i already told them in my ticket that i was having issues with)

rigid crescent
#

LOL

#

Guess just because the emails are "guaranteed to be read" doesn't mean they'll be read well lol

desert stratus
#

motd: remember to update ur sdk everyone

#

yes, im talking to you, mr/ms "my last sdk version is from march"

So I’m hearing a friend has already gotten the PC version of VRChat to run on a quest

#

Asking him for the details

tribal oxide

#

Are there any plans to fix the incredibly laggy social menu? It's like, 10 minutes behind at any given point

ruby burrow
#

@languid beacon They're streaming it. There's some odd third party hack using regular router wifi.

languid beacon
#

Oh I wonder if latency would be an issue

ruby burrow
#

Yeah, far as I've heard the obvious drawback is substantial latency.

languid beacon
#

Whoop whoop

ruby burrow
#

Since it's far from a true VR ready wifi solution.

#

Or at least, I very much assume they're streaming it, just based on having heard about this thing. Obviously I don't know the person you're talking about. ^ ^;

alright guys, i think the meme is dead

Hm I see so that’s what it looks like

swift thicket

modest fox
#

@languid beacon I'd like to know how they managed to run the PC version on the quest, I'm fairly sure they connected via broadcast from PC and run the launch code from the webpage or steam icon.

languid beacon
#

Uh as they said above they were just streaming it with Vridge

#

So false alarm I’m afraid

#

But it hasn’t even been out a week yet, I’m sure something will happen. Rift S is begging to be replaced with a modded Quest

#

As mean as that is it’s gonna happen

inner cape
#

I missed the quest release day but still, holy crap theres a lot of quest users

#

I didn't expect to see so many

languid beacon
#

There’s even more then release day actually

#

It’s getting more

#

Not everyone checked out vrchat day one

#

!online

floral flaxBOT
#

There are 5451 users in VRChat currently

inner cape
#

so many poor quest users struggling to walk around and not having a single clue as to what is going on

languid beacon
#

We just need more content so they stick :p

frigid imp
#

same thing as SL content will keep them there

#

well draw interest

languid beacon
#

Quest compatable stuff is a little lacking

#

Lots of people thinking visimes and custom animations aren’t permitted

inner cape
#

I didn't even realise there will be so many of them

languid beacon
#

Well I expect quest to be the next Wii, so

#

There’s a lot more console gamers than pc gamers people don’t realize that

inner cape
#

im surprised

#

I underestimated them

languid beacon
#

If the content exists, Pc could be outnumbered at some point

#

This is just the first week

inner cape
#

whaa

#

no way

frigid imp
#

ready player one here we come!!

languid beacon
#

!online

floral flaxBOT
#

There are 5388 users in VRChat currently

inner cape
#

online count would nearly double then

#

and right now it's not that big

#

even for PC only times, it's the usual number

#

6-5k on peak, 4-3k in little less active hours

languid beacon
#

Yeah but we’ve been Pc only

#

PCVR is gonna end up being niche

inner cape
#

I dunno about that one chief

languid beacon
#

How many people do you think owned a Wii?

#

I expect those numbers from Oculus Quest this Christmas.

#

This will be THE gift of Xmas 2019, quote me.

#

November 28, 2006, Nintendo reported that it had sold over 600,000 consoles in the first eight days of launch in the Americas

inner cape
#

working for zuck

frigid imp
#

People waited for hours and hours, there was also a severe shortage

languid beacon
#

Yes Nintendo had decades of brand recognition. Oculus Is a mystery company to most people

frigid imp
#

But then they decided to release the Wii U... and well we know how that went

languid beacon
#

So that initial burst has to be discounted

there just seems to be a lot of people getting vr rn in general

#

not just quest users but normal people, likely due to the sales of incoming headsets

met a guy in game just now who started using his vive today

hey but lets focus on quest

#

lets try to implement this feature that we barely tested

rigid crescent
#

"barely tested "you mean like since befroe december lol

#

I mean it doesn't work, but it was tested extensively

sweet nebula
#

This post from #vrchat-general-1 was flooded out by a large wall of text/spam from another user, so I'm reposting here for added exposure:

Do we have any Linux via Proton VRChat players in here? I'm trying to make a full switch from Windows to Manjaro Linux soon, and would like to use the Index once I swap (since that has been confirmed to have Linux support).


Also, the disconnect/timeout loop thing is a bug thats being worked on atm. I emailed support and got that response back.

unborn dune
#

i was under the impression the beta was really short

coarse galleon
#

hey hey

rigid crescent
#

The open beta was, the closed beta was, at the one of the longest, or the longest i forget which

unborn dune
#

oh i see

rigid crescent
#

But something tells me a lot of this ik stuff wouldn't evne be detected in an open beta, minus maybe the desktop neck thing, because only a few dozen people even bother with the beta

unborn dune
#

hmmm

rigid crescent
#

So you're basically just testing the impact on the servers of a handful of people with networked IK vs thousands of players at once

unborn dune
#

i suppose you are correct. but i mean doesnt that mean that the closed beta was really successful?

#

or was it released as a crap shoot

rigid crescent
#

Well it means it worked in closed beta, or it didn't work in closed beta and they released it anyway

unborn dune
#

im gonna go with option #2

rigid crescent
#

I mean it's not really fair to assume either lol

unborn dune
#

but thats probably because im frustrated

inner cape
#

lul

unborn dune
#

i just wanna hang with friends

#

i feel like im missing out on stuff

#

sounds silly i know

inner cape
#

it doesn't

rigid crescent
#

pretty reasonable

#

Xiexe mentioned that the test before live worked so, I guess that's all we have to go off of?

boreal kelp

So I got done with making walking animations.. and now I've got the issue of legs clipping through skirt while crouching..

whyre u upgrading to the i3. Didnt fpaul already give u a good list

with the ryzen 2600...

deep otter
#

I lost it

#

Xd

#

Also this i3 is faster than that ryzen

covert linden
#

if youre going for intel at least get the i5 series lol

#

and no its not

#

also fpauls had the ryzen 2700 actually

#

if you need a price lower thigny go with the 2600, which is indeed better than the i3 you sent, according to that benchmark (scroll down) @deep otter

deep otter
#

Oh ok

#

👌

boreal kelp
#

I've seen a Felix Argyle avatar with no skirt clipping and only a few custom animations. Does it have to do with dynamic bones or something

#

Reminder that the Quest is the end of VRChat for Vive, expect Zuckerberg to make it oculus only

atomic tusk
#

I don't think the devs would take a risk of killing the game completely

rain isle
#

huh, keep getting black screen timed out when joining worlds

#

doing check integrity of gamefiles seemed to fix it though may have been coincdience

lunar shell
#

@fresh tiger That won't happen. If most Quest users don't have a gaming PC, who's going to make all the avatars and worlds then?

meager solstice
#

U don’t need a gaming pc to make models/worlds @lunar shell

lunar shell
#

You need a pc to run Unity don't you?

meager solstice
#

U said a “gaming pc”

lunar shell
#

Ok good pc.

#

But you aren't going to be able to model very well on a potato.

meager solstice
#

I mean u would be surprised

#

People use blender/unity all the time on their potato laptops

lunar shell
#

Either way the comment earlier about Facebook is off.

#

And most people creating things on vrchat own gaming pcs.

umbral reef
#

We already have the problem that barely any people make avatars
And if they do it's just uploading pre made things or small edits. The amount that makes properly optimized original stuff is really low.

lunar shell
#

I see a lot of people with customized avatars.

umbral reef
#

Those are just a download, throw into blender, have a program do 99% of the work and throw it into unity where you edit a material or two and tadaa

placid zealot
#

Majority is Frankensteined mmd models.

umbral reef
#

That also

#

Who doesn't enjoy a badly connected, wrongly weightpainted kitbash

placid zealot
#

Not that I mind, it's just getting really stale often seeing the same things over and over.

#

Ditto lol

umbral reef
#

I love it when those type of avatars have atleast some polish or proper animations.
Most are really just the same base, different variations of some clothes with Neko ears and a few face animations.

meager solstice
#

Yeah usually that’s how it goes

umbral reef
#

At least the quest will be safe from this.. for now

meager solstice
#

Now really

#

U get a model and decimate it to death and boom quest ready

placid zealot
#

Oh yeah there's definitely some good looking models of that variety out there. It's just seeing a million different shimakaze with another head pasted on it for example 🤷

umbral reef
#

Just don't use a mmd

meager solstice
#

I’m gonna see if I can make a quest model,

#

Without decimation

umbral reef
#

There are also tools to 'redo' the poly's

#

Just can't think of the name but it's perfect to reduce the amount an avatar needs

coarse anchor
#

Why complain a out people enjoying models like that

#

I don't judge any model choise (unless it's the cursed knuckles from a country which name shouldn't be named)

umbral reef
#

We never said it's bad. Just that it's not original and what most do.

coarse anchor
#

Can you model from scratch?

#

I don't think it's as easy as some make it out to be

#

Some just want a nice looking model which some features they feel they want on it

meager solstice
#

No one said it was easy that’s why people frankstein models together

rough flax
coarse anchor
#

I don't mind seeing the same models everywhere, besides who goes into Pubs anymore

meager solstice
#

y not go into pubs

coarse anchor
#

Pubs are pretty aids 90% of the time

#

I like my game to not crash and my avatars to not be joinked

meager solstice
#

Haven’t been crashed in a while, haven’t seen a model stealer in a while

coarse anchor
#

Maybe not direct crashes but hugely optimized models whit 500dynamic bones

meager solstice
#

I feel like they added a dynamic bone limiter to VRChat or am I wrong?

coarse anchor
#

They did but it broke most of the dynamic bo es of my models which makes me sad

#

I only had like 4dynamic bones at best whit 0 colliders

Get a slap on the hand and log I to a different account through a vPN

#

From what know and seen

meager solstice
#

@tall ingot I mean it’s impossible to harm a pc through vrchat

coarse anchor
#

It's not impossible

#

VRChat is waving your IP around whit no protection

meager solstice
#

What does an ip have to do with destroying a gpu

#

🤔

coarse anchor
#

You said its impossible to harm a PC through vrchat"

meager solstice
#

Okay but what can u do with an ip to harm a pc

#

What ddos?

coarse anchor
#

Enough, ddos as an example

meager solstice
#

ddos isn’t harming a pc

coarse anchor
#

Im no PC genius ut I woudnt want people to just get their hands o my IP

umbral reef
#

Ow no they have an ip
Just like the trillion of websites and services online or any game with a p2p prosuct

coarse anchor
#

And I think that's a reasonable thought

umbral reef
#

meager solstice
#

Csgo waves ur ip around, Minecraft does the same thing........ with hardly no protection. Getting an ip is nothing

coarse anchor
#

Well then they should make it saver

umbral reef
#

Used Skype? People got ya ip. Visitors an forum? Congrats they got it. Ever used a game with voice? Congrats again

coarse anchor
#

Just because some games don't make safety in it doesn't excuse anyone else

meager solstice
#

But an ip means nothing

placid zealot
#

We weren't complaining about models like that. It is hard but some more effort here and there goes along way as well as originality. There's definitely nice models out there made from pre-made parts. So I don't mind at all 🤷

umbral reef
#

Also doing an ddos ain't cheap and a restart of a router can mitigate it fully

meager solstice
#
  • they cracked down on pay to ddos sites
coarse anchor
#

That still doesn't excuse it

meager solstice
#

So what can u do with an ip? Go to someone’s house and beat them up?

placid zealot
#

Any website or any apps and things you've ever used have your ip

meager solstice
#

Unplug ur router and boom new ip

#

Or call ur internet provider

coarse anchor
#

Yes websites but the user of said service shouldn't be able to get your IP as easy as they get it jere

#

Given VRCbat has been hot mees anyway specially after the quest update

cold talon
#

Just get quest so people can't grab your ip :smart:

subtle prawn
#

😮

rotund wren
#

Agreed. ip's are public information in no way by any means were they meant to be completely hidden completely. But by any means they're not suppost to be shown as easily as vrchat is allowing it to be. That is why programs exist to show and find out this information.

Theres been many canny posts but they all get closed with the response basically saying we should be using a vpn anyway. Which is ridiculous. Imo they dont know how to fix it and are pretending like we're the ones who dont know what an IP is.

I know for a fact as I've seen it for myself (not used it of course) that there are clients out there that have already fixed the issue just mere days after it became a thing.

rigid crescent
#

🤔 days as in years ago

rotund wren
#

Years ago was uneeded because hacked clients had not got to the point to show this. Or at least not on a big scale. They fixed it themselves after it became a big issue.

coarse anchor
#

Btw petition for adjustable volume slider per person

cold talon
#

@coarse anchor post it in canny
(to be ignored)

coarse anchor
#

I mean I have seen a post from tupper showing they don't want to go this direction which is really stupid

quick kayak
#

Just tell the person to fix their mic, now everyone will be better because of it. I honestly don't understand how people don't configure their mic properly.

coarse anchor
#

Some people aren't techsavy and just wanna talk

#

So adjustable volume sliders in the game give everyone a chance to talk to everyone because I'm muting people that are to loud or something else

#

Or it's just annoying people being loud at times

vocal shard
#

Is anyone else not able to access vrchat at all

#

Steam won’t launch it. It’s stuck at preparing to launch vrchat and it won’t start up the game

#

I’ve already reinstalled it nothing working

#

my game just crashes

#

most of the time vrc connection error

#

My game was fine a week ago (I haven’t played in a week) now I cannot even access the damn menu screen at all

#

Yeah I agree, they sound like they're talking through a megaphone lol.

rotund wren
#

@vocal shard You using VR or just Desktop?

vocal shard
#

I’m using oculus

rotund wren
#

Make sure in your task manager that 'Server VR' Is closed. Then boot up steamvr first then VRC

#

if that don't work you need to assemble the elders

vocal shard
#

I always boot up steamvr first

#

Let me retry it by closing server be

rotund wren
#

can you boot up other games fine?

vocal shard
#

Can’t find server vr let me try booting another game

quick kayak
#

If you're using Oculus, why don't you use the oculus version of the game? Unless you're doing PPM, or FBT, are you?

vocal shard
#

I use steamvr because of steam reasons and open be advanced settings

rotund wren
#

When I had oculus I never like using it because it would blank out my game behind the oculus dash

quick kayak
#

Outside of being able to use PPM, or FBT, using any app on the Oculus Store is much better because A) it's not shitty SteamVR and ASW2.0 is beyond anything SteamVR does.

rotund wren
#

steamvr is pretty shit for something you pay close to 1k for

quick kayak
#

What did you bought that was almost 1k?

vocal shard
#

Well I use it so too bad

quick kayak
#

Okay man, you do you, I'm just saying, Oculus version is a much better and smoother experience, objectively.

rotund wren
#

Vive is like £600 for the lot then if you want the delux audio strap that is pretty much a free oculus strap that's another £100 and its lame without it. then if you want fbt there is another 300. Ether way 600 is close to 1k

SteamVR is shit, how many times do I have to say it lol.

#

Valve saying they think VR won't last isn't very uplifting either to having hopes on SteamVR becoming much much better and stable.

#

Honestly unless you really want FBT the vive for me was not worth it. The len's are completely garbage compared to oculus and the controllers too. Whoever disagree's never used oculus lmao

dusk mesa
#

Hey Jay 🌝

quick kayak
#

Lucifer, have you tried doing the lens mod?

#

Hi Mi-Cha.

rotund wren
#

I want too but its scary when you spend 600 on the thing

dusk mesa
#

I use a Oculus and I love the Controller, never tried a Vive but i want Fullbody so badly ..

#

Just cant buy it atm

quick kayak
#

You can use FBT on the oculus, or any headset.

dusk mesa
#

Its wonky

quick kayak
#

No it's not, they use 2 different methods of tracking.

rotund wren
#

fbt is not as great as people say it is

quick kayak
#

It's just as wonky as using FBT with the Vive.

dusk mesa
#

I have kinect fullbody since at least 9 months

rotund wren
#

vrc is one of the only games to support it and its very experimental

quick kayak
#

No, I mean you buying light houses and 3 sensors, not using the kinect lol

dusk mesa
#

And many people in the dancecommunities had oculus setup with vive trackers and they all ended up going full vive

#

Ik Jay lol

quick kayak
#

VRC is the ONLY game honestly, Beat Saber? Why the hell are you going to do with FBT there?

dusk mesa
#

Only game for now

#

We dont know what will come out in the future

quick kayak
#

It has been the only game for how long now?

rotund wren
#

I did the same I used vive trackers with oculus and its terrible lmao having to align them every time was so annoying

quick kayak
#

FBT is a niche, just like finger tracking with the index is, it won't take over.

dusk mesa
#

Yeah Lucifer thats what I meant

lunar shell
#

Fbt is totally worth it for the immersion alone. Of course my opinion but whatever.

quick kayak
#

Majority of games will probably support index, but as a bragging right, instead of a gameplay feature.

rotund wren
#

I think the finger tracker will personally just because you don't need anymore than the controllers + it offers way more emotional range in games in general and more immersive.

lunar shell
#

And it takes me 10 seconds to line them up.

dusk mesa
#

Even tho I only can use my Kinect atm, i wouldnt wanted to be without "fullbody" even tho i am limited with the kinect. I have a very good setup with my kinect what makes me able to laydown, sit down ect

quick kayak
#

Yes, but majority of controllers, specially the touch controllers which are the best in the market as of yet, don't support that.

#

it's just an analog grip.

rotund wren
#

Actually there are a lot of sensors tracking fingers. Its not just analog

quick kayak
#

I meant the oculus touch being analog.

rotund wren
#

ah

dusk mesa
#

Idk why but for some reason i dont like the knuckles

vocal shard
#

Nope still not working

dusk mesa
#

I dont tried them or have them, but idk

rotund wren
#

There is a huge list of games on steam that already support it

quick kayak
#

If they do end up supporting index fully, they'll have to make two variants, one for index and the other for the other controllers that just have a grip input, meaning they won't be able to full take use of index, unless they literally make two levels, one for index and the other for grip controllers.

#

Just use Oculus dude lol. Plug N Play.

rotund wren
#

not really if they don't want to support it they will just act like oculus

#

but there are games updating for finger tracking. Its not a lot of effort unless you want to add extra features that use the tracking

quick kayak
#

That's what I mean, the support will go as far as other seeing you move your fingers all cool and shit, but that'll be it, it won't be a gameplay feature, other than you wanting to press something with your ring finger instead of index.

rotund wren
#

mainly it will be used in physics or online games because it is amazing what extra stuff you can do with finger tracking

vocal shard
#

I wanna access my other games I payed for

rotund wren
#

imagine the deaf community on vrc

quick kayak
#

Majority of games have an oculus SDK though, you don't need steam to play them.

lunar shell
#

Some people want more immersive experiences including finger tracking.

rotund wren
#

they got there words backk

vocal shard
#

They need steamvr to be opened for me to play them

rotund wren
#

Although I highly doubt vrc will support this straight away (lol) if they do I'd be very surprised.

#

Have you tried reinstalling steamvr?

vocal shard
#

I did

quick kayak
#

Okay, both of your points are correct, that's not what I'm saying, what I'm saying is that it won't be used for any gameplay specific purpose since it'll be extra dev work, moving the fingers isn't gameplay features, it's just a feature.

#

No you don't need steam vr opened, the hell are you on about, I play games that I launch through steam and select the oculus sdk.

rotund wren
#

I mean even if it just lets you press buttons with another finger that's pretty neat

#

you do need steamvr

#

you cant run steam vr games without steam even with oculus

#

it will just open in the background you probably didn't notice

dusk mesa
#

🌝

quick kayak
#

If the game supports both steamvr and oculus and you buy it on steam, you DON'T need steamvr opened, it'll just launch it from oculus home.

#

The exe doesn't need steamvr opened if you select oculus.

rotund wren
#

it still runs steamvr services lmao

quick kayak
#

steam services, yes.

#

Not steamvr

rotund wren
#

and you cant get them without downloading steamvr

#

hence..

quick kayak
#

Okay, give me one minute.

👀

rotund wren
#

there are a few people like that

quick kayak
#

I just launched contractors vr, which supports oculus sdk and I bought it through steam, it launched and steamvr isn't open, nor is there any steamvr process, other than the normal steam processes. Again, you don't need steamvr to play a game you bought on steam if that game supports the oculus sdk.

rotund wren
#

in there. I dunno if they found the issue

quick kayak
#

You don't need one sdk if it supports the other.

rotund wren
#

well they must of just literally changed it because that's how its always worked for years lmao

quick kayak
#

No it hasn't, I've had this headset for a while now and I've never ever had to open steamvr if the game supports oculus, which they pack it in if you bought the game on steam and not oculus home.

#

Valve isn't dumb, why would you require one sdk to be running, doing literally nothing, when it doesn't need it.

#

Those are my processes. if it doesn't show images, I'll take the links down.

rotund wren
#

its always booted up the steamvr services for me if I ever launched from oculus. Including vrc (before they supported) arazona sunshine, rec room etc..

quick kayak
#

Are you sure you selected the "Launch with Oculus Home" option? That's what shows up when you click play on a game that also supports Oculus SDK.

rotund wren
#

if you click the down arrow on steam you might see it. Or if you scroll down to your services because you're looking at your running apps there

quick kayak
#

No, the second link was the background processes.

#

The first link was running apps.

earnest ermine
rotund wren
#

they must of changed it then

quick kayak
#

Steamvr falls under the background processes when you launch it.

rotund wren
#

also he is talking about is steamvr games I'm sure if he could select oculus he wouldn't be complaining abou tit

quick kayak
#

So if any of those games that guy wants to play support the oculus, then he won't need steamvr, unless it's some indie game.

#

Maybe he doesn't know, because he just said that you need steamvr opened, which you don't need it, at all. The exe will search for what you have, if you only have steamvr, then it'll go with that, but if you have a oculus and oculus home installed and it supports it, you have the option to use that.

rotund wren
#

Some games don't have this option even if on both. Some games may not be on oculus which is when steamVR comes in with the oculus support meaning you still need it

quick kayak
#

Infact, some of my vr games are on steam because I got a cheap key for them, I didn't have steamvr installed till Unknightly and VR Chat required it, since I wanted to use PPM.

rotund wren
#

ppm?

quick kayak
#

Right, I know that, hence why I said if the games he wants to play, like Arizona Sunshine, which he mention opening, that supports Oculus, so you don't need Steamvr.

#

I meant PSM, Play Space Mover.

rotund wren
#

a lot of the time even if I just selected oculus it still used steam for me

#

but I haven't been with oculus for 5 months now so

#

maybe it changed

quick kayak
#

Weird, never had that issue.

rotund wren
#

before that I had oculus for almost 2 years

#

and 2 different pc's both did it

quick kayak
#

Not my experience, but oh well.

Indefinitely or... ?

covert linden
#

Its kinda unconfirmed

heavy dawn
#

I guess that's a concern. If VRC ever turns to "profit mode" then stuff might get locked out, etc.

It is a big driver of VR adoption probably.

covert linden
#

Many people read the records and say that its ongoing, and then others say that it was only one big payment

median basalt
#

VRChat gets investors, but there is the possibility that they get paid by Oculus for the Quest port

ruby needle
#

which... is also a kind of investment

median basalt
#

Yeah, same thing ultimately

#

Except with more strings attached

heavy dawn

Yeah it was my understanding that the investment mostly came from people who were interested in users buying into VR to use VRC.

It works, but you drop below 25 FPS if there are more than ~14 people in a room, even if they're in the default avatars

i havent but thats a joke

rigid crescent
#

I heard it existed but no clue what it is

covert linden
#

Owlboys pug map literally drops me frames by just entering.. wish he'd actually optimize it...

median basalt
#

It's a "lite" version of the Pug that only holds 8 people and pretty much consists of only the entrance and one side of the bottom floor bar.

#

So imagine the entrance area in the Pug, that room. The large one with the bar. The bar is mostly symmetrical. Now strip out literally 50% of that room, and you got a quest-compatible Pug.

covert linden
#

.

#

sorry accident ^

ruby needle
#

then why not remove it cirThink

median basalt
#

Honestly ever since VRChat finally fixed their Static Batching, the Pug has been fine for me. It's actually pretty well optimized

#

It's just a high population map

#

Most of the fault lies with VRC, don't let yourself be had by "b-but it's the avatars!!"

#

Instances with 35 people were perfectly possible mid 2017

#

But the game just piled worse performing stuff on top

covert linden
#

Yeah but even in other high populated maps my performance doesnt just drop by as much as in the pug

#

Literally every person in the pug was dropped to 11fps, we were all like ok lets go bowling instead, whereas other maps, ive never had an issue for the most part

heavy dawn
#

Every time I enter the Pug when there's people there it's a slide show after a while.

#

If there's like... a handful of us it's okay.

rigid crescent
#

I don't think one of the most optimized maps in VRchat is the problem, gotta be the avatars tanabae

dapper stump
#

Tested my world with a few quest users just incase and apparently they all do get 45 fps. Have not really optimized the quest version of it too much yet since i had no answers if needed

Pug is probably one of the least optimized...

#

Hai

#

Does anyone know if the 90fps cap is going to change?

near sky
#

Is it /capped/?

#

HMDs are 90hz; so that's a display limitation, part of the hardware.

umbral reef
#

It is because most headsets cant display above
I expect that with the index Vrchat wont change it as it can also run 90Hz from wha ti heard

near sky
#

Index will be 120, up to 144hz for example, and Quest is 75 -game runs accordingly so long as performance legroom is there

calm turret
#

That's why I was wondering.

#

I plan on getting an index.

near sky
#

Isn't a game-imposed limitation; will be fine

rough pulsar
#

I wonder if the cap with vrc is vrc itself, or steamvr

calm turret
#

I use the Oculus app

near sky
#

Would be SteamVR side for Index

calm turret
#

So I assume it's the game

#

And it's also capped at 90 for desktop users

near sky
#

@languid beacon Buying Index and Quest within the month -I expect the Quest userbase and PC to remain separate, with some intermingling. PC majority will continue to want to make use of their advanced avatar features. May switch to see-able avatar when speaking to Quest users. Expect the experience will still be quality.

umbral reef
#

For VRchat it also would just mean even worse performance
Barely anyone gets 90 FPS (well with the scuffed IK we do now)

calm turret
#

I normally get 90 fps

umbral reef
#

Id say jump into a public room and unless you have everything turned off getting 90 FPS is hard most of the time

rough pulsar
#

I wonder if Valve will improve SteamVR's frame interpolation so 120fps could be synthesized from 60 without looking horrible

calm turret
#

And I use a GTX 1060 max q (laptop version)

umbral reef
#

@rough pulsar Fairly sure they will

rough pulsar
#

Then again, I seem to be one of the few people who like SteamVR's motion smoothing over Reprojection

near sky
#

Wouldn't it already make the attempt? @rough pulsar - Quality of that attempt is questionable

umbral reef
#

They did fixes to the tracking rate just for beatsaber and steamVr users

rough pulsar

Hmm, maybe?

languid beacon
#

@near sky The thing is, people can continue to use all of the PC exclusive features while also making a stripped down version for quest to render, the PC user doesn’t even need to ever look at it, it’s just better than being seen as a robot by the quest users. But since it’s entirely for other people’s enjoyment, I don’t see many people going though the effort even though it’s no downside to their pc enjoyment

#

I think people are under the assumption that in order to have an avatar that the quest can render, even the PC version must also all of those shortcomings, but that’s not the case

#

“ I don’t want to be cross play, I want my sounds and dynamic bones” That’s not how it works!

#

You remove them and decimate on the quest render only

rigid crescent
#

Most people I've talked to just think it's too much effort redoing an avatar or making a new one so a few dozen people can see it

#

Or a waste of time

languid beacon
#

I guess the only solution to that is a lot of quest users being around

near sky
#

@languid beacon Would tend to agree

languid beacon
#

I already see it though, people finally meet a quest user in person and talk to them a little, and they seem to sheepishly change to a system avatar and ask "can you see me now" - if quest users are everywhere, people are narcisitic by nature - they want everyone to see them. 😉

#

Tri to Quads -> Unsubdivide -> Triangulate

#

ez decimation without looking like garbo ❤

near sky
#

Observed the same thing

#

Would expect this to play out more widely; especially if there's a buildup of Quest users

desert stratus
#

it would happen quicker if we got more crossplay worlds, especially rlly good ones like the temple imo

polar jasper
#

The problem with few worlds now was that we had no way to test them unless you had a Go or dev Quest

near sky
#

True; although requirements to qualify as a quest world do provide some guidance for what would run how well -even through that

languid beacon
#

Curiously I see PC and Crossplay worlds, but I wonder, are there Quest-only worlds? They'd be hidden from search for me, so I don't know

#

I made a quest-only avatar just for kicks, and it totally renders as a Quest-bot for PC users

polar jasper
#

Of course, but when many of the worlds (from the world devs that want to support Quest) can't support it because of how things functions. So will take some time to find a good solutions for those. Then you got the ones that simply do not care about Quest

sudden cloak
#

How many hours do you have to have on the game before being able to publish avatars?

ruby needle
#

Becoming verified by the trust system is based on reaching a not time based trust score, which's exact algorithm is unknown to prevent exploitation.

You presumably need to play the game in a normal manner with your VRChat account, walking around, meeting people and also making some friends. Idling won't help.
According to many responses in this discord, a rough estimate would be ** 20-40 hours**, but big exceptions are possible.

Make sure you are not using a steam or oculus account because those can not be verified and continue playing the game until you get a notification or e-mail.

I've seen some around. I don't know who you're asking to "get on it" though. Lol

The way the game works, people upload avatars to their account, and then some people make a world with a pedestal that allows others to borrow their own personal avatars as long as the original person still has it on their account.

So it's really up to the players what avatars are uploaded. Just try searching for some user avatar worlds and you'll find something eventually

Same Jamie I think I should make more cross platform compatible ones. Some of mine are compatible by virtue of being low poly/simple.

@quiet dew you can use the avatars in avatar worlds freely..

okey thank you for helping me il be quiet for som time

Anyone post things to /r/vrchat here? I'm curious what the science is behind being successfully upvoted. If you say you made it, do you automatically get downvoted? Are meme videos with subtitles more widely accepted? I really want to make sure I am not mentally masturbating but I have become numb to it all. Call me, I'm lost.. and i've lost the ability to cringe. Thanks.

Why do you care so much about what rando's on Reddit think

iron thunder
#

I care because I make stuff and it takes a week to edit. The tediousness is kind of maddening but the creative process and the final project is what keeps me pushing through. Sharing the videos respectfully is a blind spot that I cant figure out. Is it a gamble? I know people hate it when you post your own stuff.

heavy dawn
#

Yeah that attitude seems silly. "Don't self-promote" Well how else is anyone going to hear about stuff that has zero followers right now? Trust the algorithm? No...

iron thunder
#

I get it. So many people "create" so theres an influx of garbage.. and even now, I have to question if I also post garbage. It's hard to see past. Lol. But as the creator, you work 4 hours a day.. 12 hours on the weekend to make this thing.. and it's more accepted that someone else comes along with your video without giving credit.

#

is anyone having trouble with unity. cause for some reason it wont let me upload any avatars.

heavy dawn
#

@whole marsh Obivously it'd be more helpful if you could let us know what is in the Console tab. It should say why the upload failed.

idle nova
#

Reddit's a shitty platform for self promotion

heavy dawn
#

hasn't tried uploading lately, no.

whole marsh
#

it says to use settings menu to login but im already logged in.

heavy dawn
#

Oh so your VRChat tab is saying to log in but your VRC settings tab says you're logged in? Re-open Unity?

whole marsh
#

yeah im gonna re open unity

#

@heavy dawn yeah its still saying to use settings to login

heavy dawn
#

:/

#

will load up Unity and see too then

#

Are you using a modified SDK or a really old one?

whole marsh
#

i think im using the 2017 version? i dont really know.

heavy dawn
#

A good check would be to log into VRChat itself because obivously the API call is just using your same login.

#

If that works but Unity doesn't, maybe importing a new copy of the SDK would help.

whole marsh
#

i was able to get it to work.

heavy dawn
#

What worked?

whole marsh
#

getting the sign in thing

quick kayak
#

Sometimes, completely erasing the SDK, restarting Unity and reinstalling it fixes sign in issues.

#

why do people hate quest users

ruby needle
#

hate the quest or the users?

night lark
#

both

ruby needle
#

I can understand the first but the second one i dont.

night lark
#

like they tell them to just buy a normal headset

#

not everyone has a pc

ruby needle
#

I see cirLaugh

#

Yeah well, then the users saying that just haven't really understood the point of the quest.

night lark
#

thought of something

#

if vrchat can be ported to quest, then can it also be ported to psvr in the same way?

ruby needle
#

No

#

Not with the kinda content and stuff

night lark
#

k

ruby needle
#

Or to say

#

99,99% unlikely that sony would like this on their platform with the rather hard to regulate content

#

im not gonna say 100% anymore as the quest aparently became a thing cirLaugh

night lark
#

if it were to be allowed on, it would probably use the same mechanics as the quest, such as lower poly avatars, right?

hey when a mirror opens up for me, my game starts to lag a lot and after a while my head set turns off but steam VR stays on, it only start happening today

mint fable
#

I wish the api had support for official use

ruby burrow
#

Play Station would be able to handle poly count and graphics well enough overall, but is underpowered in terms of CPU by comparison to typical PCs.
So it'd presumably have it's own quirks and limitations.

ruby needle
#

Consoles are heavily multhithreaded these days arent they?

ruby burrow
#

Stuff like user count, dy-bones, and such would be the bigger issue probably.

ruby needle
#

well at least dyn bones can be disabled

ruby burrow
#

Overall it'd probably compete with all the low-ish end PCs many use for VRC well enough. But it'd be bound to have some issue somewhere.

ruby needle
#

as the question was more or less if it would work there (could it potentially come to psvr) when it does on the quest

#

i still belive it would run a bit better

ruby burrow
#

Oh yeah, it'd easily out perform the Quest.

#

But I reckon your initial answer about Sony's content policy would be the major obstacle.

ruby needle
#

jup

#

And totally understandable.

rigid crescent
#

It's probably not even a good idea even if they could just magic handwave a psvr version in a month

#

There's a shitload if PSVRs out there

#

Like a few million

#

That's something they'd need to do around "release" or at least more stability than we have now

ruby needle
#

I disagree

#

people of the platform are just as interested in playing vrchat

#

not everything has to be a promotion prove for new headset sales

rigid crescent
#

No I mean there would probably be hundreds of thousands of players suddenly lol

night lark
#

thats good

#

kinda

rigid crescent
#

Yes assuming they can handle server load it's great lol I don't doubt they can make it function on psvr with the quest client already a thing

night lark
#

the biggest issue is sonys content policy

#

thats it

rigid crescent
#

Yup

#

Like even if 1% of PSVR owners were interested, it'd be nuts

night lark
#

thats kind of why i'm suggesting it, i used to be able to play on vive until my dad chose his girlfriend over me and my siblings, now i'm stuck with the psvr at my mom's house

rigid crescent
#

🤢 at least you've got Skyrim

#

And borderlands

night lark
#

but i want vrchat

#

i've worked hard on 3d modeling

#

thats why i got into 3d modeling, to make avatars

proper ravine
#

just a question is it me or has vrchat got worse since the new updates for the quest to work with it

ruby needle
#

There has been a transition to a new IK system that in the long run will be a big improvement but will need some tweaking to it as its currently not running to well

tiny crescent
#

when i use full body tracking the ones on my feet are green but the one on my waist stays blue how do i fix this

analog canopy
#

I reccomend pairing that tracker again, and if it fails try a different usb port. Use a 3.0 one.

can i add you and call you on discord so you can help me @analog canopy

Are you using a vpn

tulip wave

no

vocal shard

use one

tulip wave

why?

#

also i dont have one

Just trust me using a vpn fixes a lot of connection errors with vrchat for some reason

You can use a free one

is there a free one that u can link me to?

Nope in class rn

just look one up

oh alright ill try to find one, thanks for the help

So after upgrading to windows 10 and reinstalling nvidia drivers I can hear myself talk in game

Dunno what is causing it but is this something I could fix? Also is there some sorta log that can be sent to the dev team about this? Better to give them info so they can see what is causing it.

Really annoying cause it only seem's to happen with visemes almost the same way reverb zones break voices locally.

boreal kelp
#

Is it even possible to override the default crouch idle animation

polar jasper
#

Yes

boreal kelp
#

When I tried applying the new crouch animation I made to my avatar's customoverride and loaded up VRChat, it just showed the default crouch animation with legs clipping through skirt

#

The animation did play when I crouch walked (I reused the animation intended for idle crouch), but it refuses to play when I'm idle and crouching

vale palm
#

been trying all for 45m

#

the movement cycle button doesnt wanna get pressed the other side is fine

boreal kelp
#

Would I need to create a new animationcontroller in order for my crouch idle animation to show up?

tawny elk
#

These timeouts are getting real crazy

rigid crescent

:0 did they change whatever was in the API to let you view people in friends/friends+ worlds

still lark
#

Yup

buoyant stone
#

so, I'm not very social, and have issues with anxiety. I'm attempting to use vrchat as a way of re-acquainting myself with social interactions. is there a world or type of advice someone might have to help me?

rigid crescent
#

why tho ;-;

still lark
#

Because someone abused it @rigid crescent

rigid crescent
#

tanabae but aneko's tool was fun

#

what'd they do owo

still lark
#

Abused it. :P

rigid crescent
#

is there a reason why Snep's works? I'm guessing it works differently

#

since it doesn't show everyone in the room only friends

still lark
#

Because it uses your friends list to collect who is in what worlds

rigid crescent
#

🤢 dangit now i'll keep joining rooms iwth one dude passed out drunk

still lark
#

Lol

rigid crescent
#

i basically used it for that and to be polite and not join instances where a bunch of people hate me lol

still lark
#

I was just kinda curious who was where and with who

rigid crescent
#

yeah finding and not joining instances with two people flirting or passed the fuck out was convenient

still lark
#

Or If I found someone alone I'd join them.

rigid crescent
#

LOL that's the exact opposite, i usually assume they're asleep unless its one of the people i know that likes to sit alone til someone joins

cobalt pecan
#

so one person's misuse ruined it for the rest again, great

still lark
#

Yeah but we shouldn't had the ability in the first place

rigid crescent
#

Really? I always thought it was a bit "powerful" but I wasn't sure if that was just me

#

It almost seemed like an invasion of privacy, but at the same time, it was (as far as im aware of) only worlds I originally had access to anyway

brave drift
#

seeing information that you could get from just joining that instance in game is "powerful"?

cobalt pecan
#

Indeed I never considered it to breach privacy, as it was only a view on an instance you had relation to anyway

deep otter
#

What are emission maps?

rigid crescent
#

They let you choose what and what not yo uwant to have an emmission

#

Lets say you've got a pair of heart shaped boxers on your avatar, for simplicity sake. On the main texture, it's just a pattern of hearts on a white background

#

Anything you want an emission on should be White, everything else shoudl be Black. I typically just duplicate the texture I want emissions on and change, in this case, the hearts to White and the white backgroudn to black. this (should) cause just those spots to have an emission, works the same on a lot of other types of mapping.

still lark
#

@rigid crescent IMO the API should be locked down as much as possible, we're slowly getting to that point.

rigid crescent
#

I don't fuck with it much, so I can't say I'd mind

#

I still remember the old "just don't be bad" stance they made with the API last year

still lark
#

That's still current I guess

night lark
#

anybody want realistic my hero academia avatars? yes or no?

boreal kelp
#

Until custom crouch idle animations can be override the default ones, I'll just focus on making a few emote animations and then start socializing

night lark
#

i’d like an answer to my question so i can know whether or not people want or would enjoy that sort of thing

polar jasper
#

Hard to answer when one don't use them

drowsy flare
#

algum br?

rose timber
#

@boreal kelp you can only override the locomotion crouch as you found out. The idle crouch is just the standing idle with IK applied.

still lark
#

@rose timber Is there any plans to change the way that works or? I would like to change my crouch idle pose.

rose timber
#

Well on desktop it's just simulating having a headset at a certain height. And in VR there's no real crouch because it's a continuum between standing and putting your head on the ground so the IK needs to drive it. We are working on an updated ik that blends between intermediate states, but it wouldn't be a good idea to alter those because they are tuned to blend well.

boreal kelp
worthy oracle
#

so i got my trusted rank back

#

and i get deranked again while i'm afk in a world with a wholesome avatar on

#

lmfao nice

#

and then i get it back

rose timber
#

@boreal kelp I think you can do that right now, because that avatar is locomoting vrcsmile just use one frame in your override!

worthy oracle
#

i'm so confused

placid zealot
#

@worthy oracle If you're getting deranked that quickly one would think you're being muted/blocked by alot of people. Otherwise not sure what causes that.

@high kayak When you open your quick menu, what does the build number say?

#

It's in the bottom left

high kayak
#

Oh darn, I just closed it. I'll reopen it and tell you. Is this a known issue?

#

Build number 751 @still lark

still lark
#

You should be on 772

high kayak
#

I'm using an outdated version, so does that mean I can't interact with people on newer builds?

#

How do I update it?

still lark
#

Pretty much

#

Do you use steam or something else?

high kayak
#

Yes I do.

#

The actual application doesn't have an update option so how would I do this?

still lark
#

It should just update unless you've paused it or have limited it in some way.

high kayak
#

I'm launching it via the website, would that prevent it updating?

still lark
#

Is steam open?

high kayak
#

Not at the moment.

Please open it and let steam update VRChat.

Does VRChat have to be closed during this?

all 6k having IK issue and loading issues 😃

I mean unless they r on the beta version, heard the ik looks much better

covert quartz
#

if the w0rld has less than 10 peps maybe

#

i cant even load into worlds

#

meager solstice
#

For me atleast I saw the ik act “jittery” in worlds with 3 people

covert quartz
#

but hey

#

quest

meager solstice
#

🤔

covert quartz
#

kill the game for like 200k people so 50 people can run it

#

smar tmove if you ask me

meager solstice
#

How did they kill the game?

covert quartz
#

I mean not able to see IK tracking or load into worlds I think kills the game

meager solstice
#

I mean the IK thing was way before the quest......

#

And it’s a smart move for performance

covert quartz
#

the hells the point of having an extra 10 fps if you see people moving around in 1fps or cant even see them to begin with

#

also the worst IK tracking got was seeing people in FBT twitch which is 100% understandable because FBT was never meant to be a full functioning thing

#

also the world killing makes the extra FPS pointless since you cant even load to begin with lol

meager solstice
#

I mean like I said people in the beta said the IK looks much better, even the fbt

covert quartz
#

ive yet to see it, god knows i would like too

#

I want VRC to be fucking amazing, but right now its the worse its ever been imo

meager solstice
#

Unfortunately I don’t have the same pain, don’t have loading problems

covert quartz
#

every twitter post ive seen about the new IK is about how laggy in garbage it is

meager solstice
#

I mean it’s the first version of a new system

umbral reef
#

And thats the reason why the current beta is all about IK fixes from what i know

covert quartz
#

so why implement something that is 100% buggy?

meager solstice
#

I mean testing something between 20 people and 7k people r totally different scenarios.

covert quartz
#

why jot test, fix, update the new AIK before launching it?

umbral reef
#

Because they cant just test it?

covert quartz
#

what?

#

they cant test it??? wtf???

#

the hell is the poitn of beta then hello?

#

literally beta is meant to test?

meager solstice
#

Do u know how the betas work?

covert quartz
#

yes

#

you test shit wqtf

umbral reef
#

We cant simulate thousands of users within a beta and odds are because of the networkload its like that

covert quartz
#

ive been in like 50 betas all testing shit

#

vrc is the first beta ive seen that fails to test appearntly

#

all other betas test and try before launching

#

"cant simulate" so how har dis it to ask more people to test the beta?

meager solstice
#

There’s a difference between testing 200 users and 7k users

covert quartz
#

you know the thing to prevent whats happening currently?

umbral reef
#

Hard lmao

covert quartz
#

soo hard ive yet to see a post encourage people to test the beta

#

so why even have a beta if no one tests it?

#

why evne have it if its pointless?

umbral reef
#

Because a small group of well educated users (about the game) test it often and find a shi ton of bugs constantly

#

Also so users can try out sytems and give feedback

#

We got rid of the veteran rank because of it 🤷

covert quartz
#

ahh so the launch game is the test game

#

got it

#

so the only good thing beta did was remove the vet rank

#

awesome!!

umbral reef
#

Want me to start listing useless bugs that say nothing to you then?
As your not just being nitpicky and salty about this what make this conversation a waste of my time.

meager solstice
#

We’ve found a lot of shit in betas to be fair

umbral reef
#

If your unwilling to accept that a network related change cant be properly beta tested its not my fault.
There have been some bugs that could have been found that happen for everyone with the IK, those could be solved for sure yes. But those are far from the worse bugs happening right now.

covert quartz
#

but this isnt a small thing

#

its not like 5% of users are seeing IK issues or world loading issues or whatever

#

its literally everyone thats in a world with 10+ peps

#

ive yet to see anyone post or comment about how amazing the new IK is unless they are quest which is the lowest amount of users

#

evne then quest are still getting lagg lol

umbral reef
#

Mainly because users tend to complain more then be positive. I have yet to hear people say anything good about the particle limiter for example.

#

But just reread wha ti wrote if yo want to know my answer to what you wrote-

plush osprey
#

the problem i have is timing out right when i try to join a world my friends are in. sometimes i can load into a world sometimes i can't, its a coin flip that mostly lands on tails

covert quartz
#

dude i would fucking love to compliment this game, buts its really damn fucking hard to compliment a game that makes my friends walk around in 1fps IF i can evne load into a game

#

thats like expecting the fanbase of a game to give a positive feedback when the game runs 10% of the time and even has issues

#

how do you expect the fans to be positive whene veyr update kills somethine?

#

you cant bash the fans for being with a game for 2 fucking years when the game has the same issues as day 1

plush osprey
#

once they fix the timing out issue from loading into worlds then i'll be fine again

umbral reef
#

More talking about previous updates, also why y comment was related to a older system by now.
Cant deny this one is ure cucked but ey- its not like they got a beta live you can tst with more fixed IK and play there with ya friends

covert quartz
#

ive spent liek 1.5k for VR stuffs to enjoy it just to have my fav game shit on me every update, I ahve a right to be upset after months and months of issues

@plush osprey Odds thats related to your networking towards the VRC servers though.
