#

Yup that's what happened to me not fun

faint skiff
#

Valve will still deal with it, people were discussing this on Reddit before

#

AFAIK the warranty is global, it's just initial shipping locations are what are currently restricted

pure hemlock
#

They wouldn't even talk to me when mine broke

#

Told me to have the person I bought them from contact them

faint skiff
#

Right, which you would be. I'm not talking about second hand.

pure hemlock
#

I don't understand your point then

faint skiff
#

Why would the issue you just be raised relevant if you're the person that bought them?

covert blade
#

@snow wadi Huh, you sure do have some interesting worlds

sinful matrix
#

Does anyone have issues with the new layout from HTC Vive with STEAMVR? I am in steamVR home with my headset and my FPS VR GPU is in pink colour and my frames is 20 MAX

broken plover
#

steamvr home lags for me too, but I disabled it. I like the steamvr void more anyways

faint skiff
#

Ditto. Home is pretty but I'm all about that game launch speed bois.

sinful matrix
#

Even when i launch in VRCHAT just know same problem FPS VR GPU stay's pink with max 20 FRAMES is this new update from STEAMVR broken?

slow halo
#

I didn't even realise you could disable steamvr home

#

I'm wondering if I can disable the home for Windows mixed reality

broken plover
#

mybe your overclocking software broke/bugged out. Mine is stuck at 1000Mhz+ VRam but Idk it that could be a problem

#

and when I overclock my VRam that high it slows down for some reason

faint skiff
#

Does WMR load into SteamVR home, or something else?

slow halo
#

Note to self: google that shit when I get home

snow wadi
#

@covert blade Tenkoo o.o/

slow halo
#

Something else. It get its own home thing

broken plover
#

When you first start it up it boots into the cliffhouse and from there you can go to the steamvr home/void

snow wadi
#

Ah I remember my WMR cliffhouse

broken plover
#

I dont think you can diable the wmr cliffhouse tho Llen

snow wadi
#

It was filled with pictures of VRChat selfies.

#

What I liked about it was that you could hang up your desktop like a painting on a wall.

faint skiff
#

Hah

#

Technically you can do that in SteamVR Home if you use OVRTK

snow wadi
#

See that's the thing, no third party apps required.

faint skiff
#

Also the Mos Eisly Cantina SteamVR home is surprisingly well done

broken plover
#

I just have a steamvr shortcut and a desktop in my cliffhouse and thats it

faint skiff
#

(yes, it includes not only the music, but the band too)

broken plover
#

I only use it as an entry point to steamvr

hi everyone

snow wadi
#

Now with Oculus home, I have a computer monitor that shows Discord. xD

#

Oh wait let me show you what Oculus Home did by default.

slow halo
#

Hmm

#

I've got a ping to a channel I can't see...

covert blade
#

Are you on mobile?

vocal shard
#

hi everyone

sinful matrix
#

I know what's going on. STEAMVR beta seems to be broken again. Did switch to the normal steam VR mode and there is it perfect again.

faint skiff
#

Oh, thanks. Ah, it's Random Chat, yeah I've muted that room because it was just brain destroyingly dumb. Like watching a pre-school playground, I couldn't keep checking it any more.

sinful matrix
#

BETA steamVRMODE is broken for now.

#

GREAT another announcement for a mainterance with issues. I wanna see more information why you guy's doing those mainterance's tho. There is no specific information whhy you guy's are doing it.

covert chasm
#

If we don't do it, stuff will break really bad.

hi tupper

slate verge
#

they are basically just dusting the server

#

and feeding the hamsters

slow halo
#

Never understood the anger at maintenances

wise patrol
#

Word is, they have a team of highly trained cyclists powering the server who need hydration

snow wadi
#

I thought they switched to Geothermal Plants?

faint skiff
#

He needs to do the biannual chkdsk

lofty cipher
#

Tupper, if VRchat does go through a maintenance would we have to log out until its finished?

snow wadi
#

I would think it's a live maintenance so probably.

slate verge
#

it says no, but you will experience bugs

lofty cipher
#

Well darn >_<

Not sure how my computer will deal with the VRchat bugs but i'll have to wait and see

I don't honestly add people on Discord unless i meet them on VRChat in person

i dont VRChat....

So knowing someone on Discord isn't good enough to add them on Discord 🤔

Consider playing VRChat then

sage thunder

It's free and doesn't require VR

i dont have VRChat

sage thunder
#

Download it :3

covert blade
#

It's free

vocal shard
#

i hav cromebook

sage thunder
#

Well rip

vocal shard
#

Will vrchat ever just make it only vr and just not allowed any pc players in ?

covert blade
#

Nope

sage thunder
#

Probably not

covert blade
#

You'd lose a large portion of the player base and also kill off a large portion of people who might potentially get VR due to VRChat

sage thunder
#

A majority of vrchat are on desktop and that ^

covert blade
#

It's free advertisement for VR really. And full body tracking. And desktop is good to quickly test stuff.

Last time we got a number of VR v desktop was something like 20% VR and 80% desktop

That's because most models are MMD's, leahhh.

yes i know

And that's why you look for models that do work well with it.

and it fucking sucks trying to proportion them in blender

sage thunder
#

@brave arch honestly it took so much tinkering for it to work, half the time I don’t even know how I got it to work lol

broken plover
#

I see the sde every now and then on wmr and It doesnt really bother me. I just try to ignore them

so I dont think its gonna be a big problem with a vive

There's also a surprisingly large number of avatars that were never really meant for FBT but do work pretty well with it

Kinect doesn't need a brightly lit room does it? I thought it used IR strobes so less light is probably actually better?

Ugh. That's fun. I thought with perfect lights, it'd be pretty good.
I've heard some people have good luck with it.

vocal shard
#

It works by projecting dots on you and tracking their movement with the ir cameras. Maybe black absorbs too much colour?

lol nice.

As usual with Unity updates, previous content will break unless it is reuploaded

#

In the meantime, enjoy how hilarious certain worlds and avatars look

#

I had one avatar that was perfectly fine except for the face, that was pink

#

I had one avatar that was just completely black, another one where nothing changed what so ever

#

I hope content creators can be bothered to update their stuff. Kind of worried about certain worlds and avatars not getting any update and just being broken for the rest of VRChats life time

#

I didn't test the performance at all

#

And in a solo home world in desktop mode the performance is always 90 FPS

slow halo
#

So I uploaded my avatar with the old unity. Do I absolutely need to re-upload it now for it to work or can I put it off for now?

#

That is to say, does vrchat only work now with the new unity version

#

cant wait until I see how smol my avatar will look when she's done eeeee

she's supposed to be a runt sized Sonic character... like she's close to the same size as a child Sonic character (Cream the Rabbit who's 2.3ft... my character is supposed to be 2.2ft) who's supposed to be about half her age (Cream is 6, my character is 13)

you have 2 options.

faint skiff

@slow halo That reminds me, I need to tweak a few more things on my bag of aids avatar

slow halo
#

@broken plover I was gonna just parent the two front skirt bones to my legs and leave it at that

broken plover
#

I guess that could also work

is maintenance still happening or no

I would assume that we would get a notification about it when they're done

@ VRChat team, y'all ever gonna remove the early access badge from the side of the menu? Shit's been there since 2015

You mentioned a person named VRChat

👌

#

@­VRChat Team

#

Also the game is still in early access as far as I know

supple bison
#

Lmao

#

Been 4 yrs

pseudo basalt
#

Games have been in ea for longer than that

#

Some games don’t even leave it

covert blade
#

DayZ had 5 years and is still unfinished. Your point?

#

@­Pumkin the games that don't leave it are usually abandonware

ruby burrow
#

Removing the badge wouldn't really accomplish anything.

supple bison
#

It's a meme with how old this game has been in early access

ruby burrow
#

It's kind of valid as a fair warning, given the plenty unstable nature of the ongoing development.

meager solstice
#

I mean leaving it early access is probably for the best for now

pseudo basalt
#

Dirty bomb has been in ea for years too

#

Then it came out but nothing changed and they abandoned it

slow halo
#

Wow I haven't thought about Dirty Bomb in ages...

ruby burrow
#

For the best how?

#

It would change absolutely nothing, whilst building false expectations of a final product in the community.

pseudo basalt
#

It was fun until it was Mishandled

#

I think it still pulls 500 peak players with a few servers that still live

ruby burrow
#

VR-Chat is ten years from being a finished product, solely via the nature of VR itself.

wintry fulcrum
#

if it still lives in 10 years

pseudo basalt
#

But yeah coming out of EA means nothing on its own

#

in 10 years I'm hoping for some SAO-style fulldive nonsense

meager solstice
#

In 10years I’ll be playing fortnite season 85

pseudo basalt
#

And they might have a set of features planned before it’s considered a finished game

ruby burrow
#

It's probably fair to say that the phrase "Early Access" itself is a little flawed, just in regard to the "early" part and how it implies there's some kind of special limited access going on.
But there's no benefit in declaring otherwise.

so, i have a problem, before, long ago, it didnt happen, but now it does... when i turn on any mirrors, even alone in a world, like the box, my gpu goes up to 100%, and my fps go to 11... any ideas? i use gtx 1060 3gb

meager solstice
#

Never heard of anyone having that issue

#

Weird tho

pseudo basalt
#

Does it happen with all avatars

analog hull
#

having for a while now, cant play much cause of this, as vrc is all about mirrors

#

yap

meager solstice
#

What have u tried so far? To fix it?

#

I honestly have no clue tbh, I would send the vrc team an email about it

analog hull
#

reinstalling, changed to rift S, turn graphics to desktoplow, trying to change the graphics card options too

meager solstice
#

Does it happen in desktop and vr?

#

Hi

And does it happen on the steam and the oculus client of the game?

only vr

#

both clients

Ur gpu drivers up to date?

Yeah.... I don’t have a clue than tbh

this is so annoying, its the only reason preventing me to play

I use to play vrc on a gtx 760 4gb

#

And it was pretty good

#

But later on in the future my experience just got worse and worse

To the point I had to upgrade

It’s maybe because your gtx only has 3gb?

Oculus is a company, not a product

slate verge
#

@vocal shard htc vive if you are planning with fullbody tracking, but oculus is a good start

vocal shard
#

The Vive and original rift are discontinued, so you may need to look used if you want one. Most of the remaining stock on online sites are selling out.

What's available now are the
Rift S $400
Vive Cosmos $700
Index $1000

You can get them online, or at some stores like best buy or Microsoft

covert blade
#

What about Vive Pro?

vocal shard
#

Vive pro still isn't worth it imo. Not unless they drop the price...

covert blade
#

But the cosmos sure is with it's modularity

#

And the knock off Oculus Touch Controllers

#

Holy fucking shit how expensive is this?!

vocal shard
#

I really don't think the Cosmos is worth it. And the reviews are bad

covert blade
#

Yeah I just looked up the price for the Pro and ohmagawd

#

nothx

vocal shard
#

Yeah

covert blade
#

Probs just better to jump straight to Index

vocal shard
#

Yep, it's better for less

covert blade
#

Also you actually have good controllers and not those oversized TV remotes

vocal shard
#

The Vive pro is basically a Vive with 2.0 sensors, and panels from a Samsung Odyssey.

#

But priced too high

covert blade
#

As with a lot of things from HTC

#

At least in Europe, the standard Vive is still being sold

#

So you could technically still get a new one, if ya wanted

vocal shard
#

i mean, oculus is an okay start, but i want to go with htc vive since i prefer full body tracking instead

covert blade
#

At least on the European store they're still selling it for 599€

#

Alternatively you can either buy a used one or jump straight to Index. Index light houses work with the HTC trackers as well.

#

The neat benefit of Valve being involved with HTC's VR headsets

vocal shard
#

Hmm, I mean I wasn't planning on spending a lot of money though. Since I'm canadian, and don't have a good.. "allowance" then it could mean I have to find something cheaper.

covert blade
#

Oh

#

I mean, if you are going for VR and going for full body tracking with HTC's trackers, you are going to spend a lot of money

vocal shard
#

True.

covert blade
#

Unless you find everything used for much cheaper and have a DYI solution to replace Trackstraps

vocal shard
#

I've found a good selection of used HTC's, but they sound to good to be true.

covert blade
#

Again, HTC is a company, not a product

#

Also keep in mind that if you are buying a used Vive, check if they are also selling the base stations

#

People upgrading to Index usually sell their Vive but keep the base stations

vocal shard
#

Alrighty, thank's for the help.
also, I'm new at this so I don't know anything about what htc is so your going to have to bear with me.

covert blade
#

It's important because both HTC and Oculus have multiple VR headsets

#

For example, HTC has the original Vive, aka just Vive, Vive Pro and soon to be released Cosmos.

#

Oculus has the Rift, Rift S and Quest

vocal shard
#

Good to know.

covert blade
#

I think before the Rift there were also the, I'm just gonna call it "Prototype" versions, CV's, whatever I forgot what it was called

#

Someone with more brain than me please tell me the name of what I'm thinking of

lunar cedar
#

Generally you've got 3 options. Odyssey+ ($300), Rift S ($400), and Index ($1000).

#

That could change if HTC decides to price drop the pro, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that

covert blade
#

As I've said, the original Vive can still be purchased. And while a bit dated and not being produced anymore, with 599€ it is a good headset if you plan on getting FBT and you are still able to upgrade to an Index later on while keeping the base stations you already have

#

Unless ya want a hybrid setup or don't care about FBT

#

Honestly though, why hasn't Oculus thought about their own full body tracking solution yet?

lunar shell
#

Full body is a hell a lot of fun.

covert blade
#

Like, honestly, look at how much HTC is charging for these things. Some competition please

lunar shell
#

I seriously don't think their full body would be that good if the managed to even get that one sensor thing going.

covert blade
#

Or is it too much of a niche to be worth competing with?

lunar shell
#

Need at least two.

#

Well vr is growing slow and fbt is just a smaller rate of that growth.

lunar cedar
#

If it was to work, it would have to do more than just fbt for a larger market appeal

covert blade
#

Yeah but right now I'm pretty sure HTC is profiting really well from their overpriced trackers.

lunar shell
#

$300 ain't cheap but I could sell my PS4 I don't use anymore because I'm into vr too much for time use it.

covert blade
#

$300 for what specifically?

lunar shell
#

Just 3 trackers.

covert blade
#

Are they really just $100 each?

#

Because they're 119€ here.

lunar shell
#

I don't know the conversion.

covert blade
#

They're almost as expensive as Index controllers

lunar shell
#

Index controllers were $279 for me.

covert blade
#

299€ here

#

I actually really want those

lunar shell
#

I'm guessing the 119 is for one tracker then.

covert blade
#

It is

lunar cedar
#

The conversion puts trackers (bought in America) at €91

covert blade
#

Now if we could ignore shipping costs and customs clearance it would almost be worth buying it overseas.

lunar cedar
#

A full kit is $650 for v1 stations, straps, and trackers

lunar shell

I made my own attachments.

covert blade
#

Like putting it on shoes?

lunar shell
#

But the straps I guess work well for some.

#

I screwed them into old shoes.

covert blade
#

The straps do work reasonably well, however there's still always a possibility that they might come off your feet

lunar shell
#

Same with a belt.

#

I bolted it on.

lunar cedar
#

Idk I'm still happy with my $400 body tracking, even if it's not as seamless as running a full HTC setup

covert blade
#

I mean, I already have my straps which I paid way too much for due to shipping and customs clearance but I guess I will consider putting them on shoes if those ever fail

#

Probs not as comfy as just having them on your socks, but a lot more stable

Depends what fbt you want too. There are cheaper ways that don't work as well but still do the trick.

covert blade
#

I don't need to dance so straps do just fine

#

Although I'm not sure who you spoke to

lunar cedar
#

Dancing is hard

covert blade
#

I'm honestly amazed at how people manage to dance, then again they're probably not using straps so they don't really have the issue of their trackers moving out of place

#

I don't move fast so it works for me

lunar cedar
#

I'm amazed at how people dance at all. Fbt or not

covert blade
#

Have ya ever seen people do handstands in VR with FBT?

lunar shell
#

Hand stands. Like how? Must be some crazy set ups.

covert blade
#

Apparently it isn't any more difficult than regular hand stands

lunar cedar
#

Nope. I've seen a few pretend to using an animation, but never anyone legit.

covert blade
#

That is assuming you can do regular handstands at all

#

Hmm hang on

lunar shell
#

I could use a wall and cheat but the controllers are in my hands.

covert blade
#

A tutorial on how 2 handstand

#

And I have seen people do that in public worlds. At least I'm pretty sure they were doing it because it didn't look like an animation and they could move their legs.

lunar shell
#

That's crazy.

covert blade
#

Yup

lunar shell
#

And amazing.

lunar cedar
#

Indeed

covert blade
#

I'm already worried every time I throw anything in VR

#

Due to small play space. These madlads do handstands. In VR.

lunar cedar
#

My feet would push through the ceiling if I tried that

covert blade
#

I have enough space ahead of me, but not anywhere to the sides.

lunar shell
#

Damn you tall.

lunar cedar
#

I can't even raise my hands to people headpatting me

covert blade
#

lol

lunar cedar
#

Not really, just a short basement room

#

Only 6'

#

I'm only 6' I mean

lunar shell
#

I wish I was

lunar cedar
#

And yet all my avatars are smol

lunar shell
#

Though I have managed to poke some dents I'm the ceiling tiles.

#

Also in the basement

lunar cedar
#

I haven't caused any damage, but I've been rained on by tile dust many times

covert blade
#

5'6" here

#

aka 168cm

lunar shell
#

I blame the Vive controllers because they are so big and ever since I stopped using them, no more dents.

covert blade
#

Probs gonna be while before I'll buy Index controllers

lunar cedar
#

I've always thought they looked pretty unwieldy

covert blade
#

They are

#

It's relatively okay in VRChat, but play Onward or H3VR and try to throw a grenade

#

Not gonna be so easy to pull the pin when the controllers are so huge

lunar shell
#

I kept mine as a back up. Not much for resale value. Lol.

covert blade
#

Unfortunately the TV remotesâ„¢ are the only controllers I have at the moment

lunar shell
#

Top 10 ugliest controllers list.

covert blade
#

Really the only benefit is that I can switch between gestures really fast and have minimal risk of accidentally using gestures when I don't intend to.

lunar shell
#

I didn't even know that could work.

covert blade
#

With the advanced controls it works

lunar cedar
#

Wait, what tv remotes?

covert blade
#

Vive controllers

lunar cedar
#

Oh, never knew there was something other than wands

covert blade
#

They quite literally have the size of a TV remote and feel like that when playing with it

#

That's why I want to upgrade to Index controllers Soonâ„¢

lunar shell
#

Oh now I get it.

lunar cedar
#

The wmr motion controllers are okay, but the Samsung ones have QA issues. Nimh batteries make then glitchy too from the lower voltage. The Acer replacement at least recognizes the nimh and shows the battery correctly draining fast af

hey whats up

lunar cedar
#

I'm way too cheap for non rechargable batteries though

thats funny

craggy flume
#

Has anyone used the Npc spawner before?

dense lagoon
#

no

covert blade
#

NPC spawner?

tepid spindle
#

Yeah, its a component thats never mentioned in the Vrchat offical documents but its their anyways in the files and is usable in game.

#

IT has been used as well but no one ever shows nor mentions on how it works.

lunar cedar
#

A script?

#

If so, pastebin it. I'm away from my computer to check the SDK files myself

dense lagoon
#

ok

slow halo
#

well except for the constant crashes, my first long(ish) session of VRChat in proper VR was fantastic

#

I'm in love

lunar cedar
#

Any error message with those crashes?

covert blade
#

Honestly ever since the update that fixed crashes on world loading, I barely had any crashes whatsoever

#

I did manage to have SteamVR crash at one point.... that was weird.

slow halo
#

there are... But I can't remember where the folder is

covert blade
#

In appdata

#

%AppData%\..\LocalLow\VRChat

surreal ingot
#

Yep Mozilla hubs might beat vrchat

#

It's another social game

#

And guess what

#

It has no Limits

covert blade
#

No limits regarding what?

surreal ingot
#

Well no avatar limits

#

No poly limits or any limits what so ever

slow halo
#

that sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen

queen mango
#

Anything else in mind? It's still too early for them as far as I can observe of.

covert blade
#

VRChat doesn't really have any limits either

#

500k poly avatar? Possible.

surreal ingot
#

Well on quest

#

It does

covert blade
#

Hmm no. They can Show Avatar a very poor one and it'll show up

vocal shard
#

^

covert blade
#

The problem is that the majority of people can't even be bothered to export to the Quest

surreal ingot
covert blade
#

Also, don't forget about Lavender

surreal ingot
#

Well this game is ran off a browser

covert blade
#

As far as I've been told, it's basically supposed to be VRChat but better

surreal ingot
#

Well yes

covert blade
#

A browser?

surreal ingot
#

It can run very well on quest

slow halo
#

wow these logs are robust

surreal ingot
#

In the browser

slow halo
#

@lunar cedar anything I should be looking for in these logs?

surreal ingot
#

Yeah you can see any avatar on Mozilla hubs

lunar cedar
#

Anything around the time of the crash. Windows logs->application will also give you the crash event if you forgot the exact time

slow halo
#

You know though, I know what's going on really. My CPU is old, my ram is old, and the WMR software is janky

lunar cedar
#

How much ram do you have?

slow halo
#

16gb, DDR3 at 1600mhz

#

and my CPU is an i5 4690k

covert blade
#

4670k here

slow halo
#

But I've got an RTX 2070! So... yay for being unbalanced I guess

covert blade
#

Ohdear

lunar cedar
#

The wmr software hasn't been janky for me. You're on windows 1903, right? I never used it previous to that version and I've heard it used to be worse.

slow halo
#

I am, yeah

#

And yeah it was worse before, it's better now. Enverex was suggesting it's my ram since he had a similar issue even with his much better setup

#

Suggested 32gb has made a world of difference for him. It's only 100 bucks for 16gb more of what I've got, so maybe I'll just do that. Can't hurt right?

lunar cedar
#

Just check in the windows application logs in event viewer. Tell me what the faulting module was.

That should also have crashed with vrserver, what does that one say?

#

Several program will crash together when steamvr goes down. Look for vrchat and vrserver

lunar cedar
#

Huh, dm me the full DWM crash

slow halo
#

getting diagnosed!

stiff sparrow
#

with what

slow halo
#

my PC crashes a bunch when running VRchat in vr

#

trying to figure out why

#

I figure it's 'cause my shit is old n' busted

carmine acorn
#

open up task manager and check what's being used up

#

if it's your memory then it's likely a ram issue, if it's your disk, hardrive issue, etc

#

that's what was happening to me too for a while, ended up figuring out it was just due to not having enough memory

merry belfry
#

anybody else suddenly dropped to super slow world download rates?

lunar cedar
#

Llen went to bed, but only 1 of the 4 crashes is known to be linked to high CPU usage. Maybe the others were too though

slate verge
#

what does it mean when they said rift s uses single screen?

broken plover
#

headsets with a manual ipd adjustment have 1 screen for each lens. But having a single screen is basically like looking at a pc monitor but theres lenses infront of it to make it 3d

#

the only difference is the ipd adjustment. a single screen cant cover as much ipd as 2 seperate screens can

slate verge
#

oh okay

lunar cedar
#

Ends up being uncomfortable/unusable for about 20% of people. At least that's what the former oculus engineer said about it. Maybe they widened the range a bit after that complaint, but I never checked.

rough pulsar
#

The Rift S' lenses are spaced at about 64.5mm, and support user IPD in the range of 61mm - 65.5mm

It's likely to be closer to 30% who cannot comfortably use the Rift S according to some data I've seen.

broken plover
#

lol I cant use the rift s then xD Glad I bought a wmr then

rough pulsar
#

Which one did you get? They have the same problem but likely a different IPD range

#

except the samsung ones, they have physical IPD adjustments

broken plover
#

I have the medion erazer

#

and my ipd is 67

#

the max ipd supported by wmr

oh wait they buried me again XD

#

there's just a constant debate on whether they bury me alive with cushions or not... XD

vocal shard
#

Hiya

pine fiber
#

One thing a lot of people don’t consider about the Rift S is the sweet spot is much much larger than Vive or most WMR headsets. So if your out of range on the IPD your most likely still in the sweet spot and the image looks fine. With Vive headsets you basically have to be dead on.

just to let you know, when I use the open beta, the mirror isn't toggled for me when I walk infront of it, and in some worlds buttons are black

#

yep, completely black.

umbral reef
#

Did you read the announcement about the open beta? Check the canny, if its not reported yet document it there and else wait and hope they will solve it without people needing to reupload content

faint skiff
#

@umbral reef I'm not on or uploading to the open beta atm so it shouldn't be related.

pseudo basalt
#

Loads for me if that’s still relevant

faint skiff
#

Yeah, it's fixed now. Guess it was just a temporary issue their side.

#

Thanks

umbral reef
#

My comment was towards Yaekith not you :x

faint skiff
#

Aaaaaaaaaaaah.

#

But yeah, expect almost all worlds to be broken in the open beta, it's been repeated like 500 times at this point, lol.

slow halo
#

Alright I got more ram!

#

RAM: Successfully downloaded

let's see if that helps my crashing issue at all

Hi

rare oar

?

slow halo

verdict: more stable, no crashes this session

#

bummed around in the pug, it got a touch choppy now and then when avatars were loading in, but still no crashes. I'm pretty happy

#

oh in case people still think so, no I didn't download my ram. I bought it

#

I'm not that dumb

faint skiff
#

Yeah, it made a massive difference for me. Basically with 16GB, the game would creep up to 12GB then shit itself, basically.

covert blade
#

How long would you have to play for it to get that bad?

vocal shard
#

what are some of the best maps for talking in general?

covert blade
#

Any with players

vocal shard
#

it seems there are so many trolls on most of the active ones

covert blade
#

That's because no one takes public worlds seriously

quasi osprey
#

i'm lucky to play 10 minutes before i crash

covert blade
#

It's always going to be a wild mess of random things happening unless you join F+ or beyond

faint skiff
#

@covert blade An hour or two in some worlds. About 30 minutes in the Pug lol

covert blade
#

o_o

faint skiff
#

@vocal shard Room with rain if the room isn't too busy, The Pug, The Black Cat, etc

#

Just look around for approachable groups and hop instances if you don't find any

covert blade
#

Black Cat to meet 'dem Quest users

vocal shard
#

sounds good

faint skiff
#

Yeah, avoid the BC if you're not using a Quest avatar

vocal shard
#

I'm assuming I'm not since I don't even know what that means

covert blade
#

You know the blue "PC" circle when you select an avatar?

vocal shard
#

I think so

covert blade
#

In the upper right I think?

#

The Oculus Quest is a standalone VR headset running a different operating system. Only supported avatars will be visible to them.

#

If the avatar or world supports Quest, the green "Quest" circle will be lit up as well

#

Otherwise it'll just stay gray

vocal shard
#

ah, so I definately don't use one

covert blade
#

If you use a PC only avatar, Quest users can only see the placeholder model

#

Personally I wouldn't worry too much about it unless you have friends playing on Quest

#

The selection of quest compatible avatars is really bad and on PC you cannot filter specifically for Quest worlds so finding avatar worlds with avatars for the Quest can be a bit meh

#

Also I realized that the Quest supported B1 battle droid I've been using has more than 10k polys and is therefore vrcPerfVeryPoor on Quest :(

slow halo
#

Yeah. I was running my performance monitor just to see which was the culprit, CPU or RAM, and one of the crashes was caused by the Pug taking a full 8GB of memory to itself

#

so I maxed my ram, maxed my virtual ram, and my computer nope'd out of there

covert blade
#

It does seem like the avatar creator did cut down on the polys because I found another, identical looking model (probs ripped from the same game) but with more polys. Still, that's some maxi disappointment right there

slow halo
#

I'm sure I'll still get CPU related crashes, according to Jak the dwm process is a horribly-optimized beast and is prone to just using as much CPU as it possibly can, but at least one of the problems is dealt with

covert blade
#

Good thing I have 16 gigs

slow halo
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

maybe canadian ram runs different

covert blade
#

Although oddly enough I have had so few direct game crashes that I never bothered checking the RAM

#

SteamVR crashed at one point

#

That was interesting because the game was still running and working in the background, I just couldn't see it

broken plover
#

the same thing happened to me too yesterday (twice)

covert blade
#

I'm gonna keep an eye on my RAM usage next time I'm on. I'm curious now

quasi osprey
#

i hate crashing cause it shuts down oculus, steam, obs if it is running.. yeah not a fan

covert blade
#

🤔

#

So you have a Rift and use SteamVR?

quasi osprey
#

yep

covert blade
#

That can cost performance as far as I know because then you have Oculus' software and SteamVR running in the background

quasi osprey
#

i know.. steamvr just needs to go away

#

never used a vive before. does it not have the stuff like oculus?

broken plover
#

the vive runs natively through steamvr

quasi osprey
#

rip

broken plover
#

but if you have a rift, then why dont you play vrchat from the oculus store?

quasi osprey
#

does the same thing

covert blade
#

Vive and Index run natively on SteamVR

faint skiff
covert blade
#

Especially not surprising for the Index, as it is a Valve made product.

#

Of course it is going to run on software made by Valve.

vocal shard
#

ah

quasi osprey
#

ten minutes of gameplay then UnityPlayer.dll goes nanners

#

sent my files in 21 hours ago.. fingers crossed

covert blade
#

But really the question would be, if you have a Rift, why don't you use Oculus' own software?

#

VRChat is on the Oculus store

quasi osprey
#

doesn't matter what i use. the results are the same

#

start the game, join a room, crash

faint skiff
#

That'll never be resolved btw, you need to work on the issue from your side. e.g. update Windows, clear game cache, etc.

quasi osprey
#

done all that. gotta hang out in dead rooms i guess XD

faint skiff
#

How much RAM do you have and what other specs?

#

(also are your GPU drivers up to date? etc etc)

quasi osprey
#

16gb, 980 ti, i76700k and yep

faint skiff
#

I had constant crashes on 16GB, so just something to keep in mind. Do you have anything else running in the background?

quasi osprey
#

discord, steam and the oculus app

#

i can't figure out how ten people can stand by the mirror in the pug but someone comes near me and my game nopes out 0.o

faint skiff
#

Hmm, faulty RAM or overclocked GPU freaking out?

quasi osprey
#

nah i dont overclock. tried that when i built my pc and got a bsod and never tried again

Hello

tidal onyx
#

anybody else having issues with avatars rn

scarlet sorrel
#

naw

idle nova
#

Might want to be a bit more descriptive than that

#

How do these issues manifest?

marsh sluice
#

anyone know where i can find avatars that play music?

broken plover
#

make them yourself

#

its not hard to put music into an avatar

covert blade
#

It's also not hard to play music ingame via the mic

marsh sluice
#

yea but thats toxic

covert blade
#

And music playing avatars aren't?

marsh sluice
#

there not that bad

covert blade
#

... it makes no difference

marsh sluice
#

better then it screaming threw your mic

broken plover
#

instead of it playing music, put jumpscare sound effects on it and make a gesture for your avatar to turn invisible and spook people instead. Much more fun

carmine acorn
#

I think someone playing music through their mic at a comfortable level is better than an avatar playing music also at a comfortable or louder level, due to the fact that some avatars playing music will be just as loud no matter how far away you are from the player, as opposed to someone playing through a mic who will get quieter as you get farther away from them.

queen bramble
#

hello

#

im planing on setting up Full body with a Xbox One kinect is there anything I should keep in mind

carmine acorn
#

It will be buggy and a bit glitchy, and maybe annoying to set up.

queen bramble
#

I have a Rift S, no base stations, and a extra Xbox One kinect im not using

carmine acorn
#

Basically just try to be patient.

idle nova
#

might not end up being that great overall, but if you already have the Kinect worth a try

#

I've heard there's a way to use cheap LEDs to improve tracking with those setups

broken plover
#

I have a kinect too. Its not the best, but its good for what it is. Cheapest FBT you can get

carmine acorn
#

I used a kinect since I already had one, and a friend actually gave me a pc adapter so it was basically a free setup. I used it along with WMR for a long time and can say that besides the buggy mess it could be, it was fun and I'm glad I did it.

queen bramble
carmine acorn
#

However, since upgrading to a Vive and actual trackers, I enjoy them so so much more and it's such a better option for dancing to me.

queen bramble
#

im not planing on upgrading for a while so spending 25 bucks on a adapter and 2 hours or so on setup is kinda woth it for me

carmine acorn
#

That's exactly what my mindset was as well. I think you should go for it and see how it works out.

idle nova
#

What headset do you have Zboss?

queen bramble
#

rift s

#

@idle nova

idle nova
#

ah yeah

#

If you had a headset with the SteamVR base stations I say it's a harder sell to do full body with the Kinect

#

when you have to add them into the cost of getting full body spending a bit on a Kinect is a lot easier to swallow

queen bramble
#

if I had bace stations id just get the Vive Pucks

idle nova
#

yeah

queen bramble
#

step one get my dad to purchase a Kinect to PC adapter

#

is there any important specs you need?

vocal shard
#

You can also make your own adapter. It's much cheaper. You need a USB A-B cable, and a power cord that you solder to two pins

queen bramble
#

well I dont have any experience with that kind oof stuff

main root
#

Is vrchat much better with vr headset?

queen bramble
#

and I only got 1 Kinect

#

its unanomusly better

vocal shard
#

Yeah it's very different in VR

main root
#

Oo decisions decisions..

marsh sluice
#

suggestions on vr headsets with a decent price range?

queen bramble
#

Rift S

main root
#

I want the rift s

queen bramble
#

400 USD

main root
#

Mmhm

queen bramble
#

great specs

#

easiest to set up

faint skiff
#

Depends what you mean by "decent price range". The Index is definitely worth it.

queen bramble
#

doesnt require much proccesing power

#

mixed reality headet I heard was also ok

#

also DONT GET THE QUEST

main root
#

Best to save for rift s

queen bramble
#

^

main root
#

Quest is 🤮 imo

queen bramble
#

also the cozmo is a wast of funding

vocal shard
#

Rift S is good all around and a good price

queen bramble
#

why are they even making the Cozmo

vocal shard
#

And the quest is actually really good, and has PC support coming soon with a cable you can plug into your computer. but the rift S is still better as a PC headset overall

queen bramble
#

ive been using the Rift S for 5 months now

#

it works just fine

vocal shard
#

Vive made the Cosmos and stopped making the Vive. 02shrug

#

But I'm not a fan of the Cosmos

queen bramble
#

cosmo is just a downgraded rift S in mmy opinion

faint skiff
#

It's higher res screen, how is it downgraded?

vocal shard
#

Downgraded? How so?
On paper is should be way better.... But reviews are not so good

#

More cameras, higher res, larger fov, the ability to use it wireless or with steamvr tracking (through add-ons)

sharp saddle
#

I hear the software support ain't there.

vocal shard
#

Yeah cosmos software apparently is bad and tracking is almost unusable right now

sharp saddle
#

Light-based tracking is bad.

rough pulsar
#

Bear in mind the Rift S had tracking problems on release.
Along with display problems and audio issues.

vocal shard
#

True

queen bramble
#

i here the screendoor is worse, cant really read text, and (without bace stations) there is longer refresh time when contriolers loose tracking

#

true @rough pulsar

vocal shard
#

That doesn't make sense. The screen is 1440x1700 vs the rift S 1200x1440. The screen should be better on the Cosmos. But I hear the lenses aren't that great

queen bramble
#

and yes you can read text in Rist S better then any other headset

#

i heari have only tryed 2 headsets

vocal shard
#

That is false. There are other headsets clearer than rift s

rough pulsar
#

Text clarity might be a result of the FOV, PPD and subpixel array type

queen bramble
#

whats headsets are better?

vocal shard
#

Rift S is is very clear and good value for the money. But not the best

meager solstice
#

As of right now the index would be the best

faint skiff
#

Well the Index for a start. The Odyssey+ should also have better clarity wouldn't it?

queen bramble
#

yeah we got to remember how much bang for your buck the rift S is

rough pulsar
#

The index has better text clarity than the Vive Pro but both have same res screens, but the Pro has pentile subpixel arrays while the index is RGB stripe.

vocal shard
#

Index is sharper, HP Reverb is much clearer than those. And then there are others still in develpment that are near perfect clarity and sharpness

faint skiff
#

Bang for your buck doesn't make it technically better.

#

It just makes it cheaper

queen bramble
#

i know

vocal shard
#

@faint skiff no the Odyssey+ isn't sharper. It's very beautiful, but it's soft

rough pulsar
#

Rift S is fairly good value if your IPD is within the supported range.
The Valve Index is overall the best HMD on the market. (key word being overall)

carmine acorn
#

So I can't find any info about this but

queen bramble
#

my IPD is fine wth the rift s

carmine acorn
#

is the Index lighter weight than the Vive? It looks like it, but I'm not sure.

queen bramble
#

how light is the Rift S compared to other headsets

#

(besides the oculas go and quest)

rough pulsar
#

Which vive, and which generation? HTC did a few silent revisions to the Vive reducing the weight in some of them.

#

But overall the Index is lighter than most (or possibly all) Vives.

meager solstice
#

I’m gonna upgrade to the index eventually

vocal shard
#

Index is the dream... But too much for me animesweat

#

also Canada

rough pulsar
#

And speaking of the Index, I'm gonna go slap mine on my face.

I'll need a bigger room if I'm gonna upgrade to anything requiring lighthouses.

queen bramble
#

i feel like as soon as I save up for the index thell be a better headset

#

so im doing a bit of waiting

faint skiff
#

The original Vive (which I have) was 555g, they then rereleased it later at 470g. The index is apparently 809g but ironically feels lighter due to how it fits onto your head.

vocal shard
#

There's always a better headset in develpment

meager solstice
#

It’s just like gpus and cellphones (anything really)

#

As soon as it comes out.... it’s already outdated

vocal shard
#

Just be happy and enjoy whatever you have or can afford. Dwelling on what you could have will bring you down

faint skiff
#

Yeah, basically it just comes down to what you can afford (unless you want FBT at some point)

broken plover
#

everybody does mistakes. And its ok to do so. But some mistakes are bigger than others. For example buying the wrong headset just because someone said something about it

slow halo
#

Throwing in support for my odyssey +. All the issues I've been having have been solely because of the janky wmr software

queen bramble
#

I cant wait till I can get full body set up

broken plover
#

I have some really wierd issues with wmr. When I have it plugged in, while I boot my pc. Its stuck in the mainboard companys logo screen. Or when I shut it down once I have to log off of windows and log in again

slow halo
#

I was considering Kinect 2 but Enverex smacked me and said no

#

@broken plover I was having that issue as well. Are you on windows 1903?

queen bramble
#

?

broken plover
#

yeah

#

maybe thats the problem :/

slow halo
#

I mean, getting on 1903 is what fixed it for me

broken plover
#

have you had both issues or only one of them?

faint skiff
#

Kinect is fine if you can get it for <$30 just as a play thing. It's not worth actually investing cash into it, it's too limiting.

slow halo
#

Also uninstalling and reinstalling wmr after getting 1903.

broken plover
#

I bought a kinect just for FBT but when I get vive trackers I can still use it as a webcam because I dont have one

faint skiff
#

@slow halo See if you can get a 360 kinect somewhere for next to nothing because those are normally basically free at this point and pick up a $5 power adapter.

slow halo
#

I actually haven't had my headset plugged in when starting up except once when it said it couldn't detect the set. Bad to unplug/replug it

vocal shard
#

I find that wmr relies heavily on windows being up to date. Even one update behind and it seems to break

slow halo
#

@faint skiff haha, yeah.

vocal shard
#

I'm always updated and it works normally for me

faint skiff
#

@slow halo I'll use the Kinect next time you're on so you can see what it's like

lunar cedar
#

I've only seen one crash in wmr and that's when my CPU is being maxed out by an unrelated bug

broken plover
#

i have windows up to date but I still have these issues. Or maybe Im 1 update behind? Everytime I download it it takes forever and slows down my already slow internet

#

might leave it on through the night to download all those updates

lunar cedar
#

Winversion in search

slow halo
#

Yeah, sorry Nico. I keep meaning to try to see what happens when booting when it's plugged in, but by coincidence I haven't had the opportunity

lunar cedar
#

18362.357 is the current build

faint skiff
#

I think WMR headsets are seen as a display so your PC may try and boot with it as your primary display adapter.

slow halo
#

I've got 18362.388

lunar cedar
#

Oh maybe the site isn't updated, I don't have 1903 to check

broken plover
#

luckily I have it plugged into a usb hub with a switch for each port so I can just disable it

slow halo
#

nice

#

I was going to pick up a usb C adapter

#

@faint skiff you don't have to do that. I saw triping and his set up

#

Okay, I just rebooted with the headset plugged in and it takes a hot minute for my screens to work. I think the computer tries to send it to my headset first or something. No idea

lunar cedar
#

Oh found it, yep 388 is the current build. Yea, the GPU will just see it as a screen before the USB device that actually controls the device initializes.

slow halo
#

Ah, it worked though!

#

Didn't have to unplug and replug.

#

I wonder if using the USB c adapter would alleviate that

lunar cedar
#

The controller behind the type-c might be a better one than the other ports (if it is a different one, but most are)

faint skiff
#

@slow halo I think Triping got lucky though, his seems to work far better than I've ever seen Kinect work before.

slow halo
#

He does seem pretty proud of it

worn wing
#

Its pretty specific in what it needs, within* two meters from the floor and atleast two meters from the player and it works fine. Cant lay down or go anything past a right angle looking at it hips wise. Sitting and standing work. But hey $30 for feet.

faint skiff
#

It looks OK from other people's perspective, but it feels inaccurate, laggy and floaty to yourself.

broken plover
#

I could squat like a russian once, but out of nowhere it kept glitching my hip around so I couldnt do that anymore :/

Watermarking images should be illegal

#

Aka. I'm looking for textures for my world on Google

meager solstice
#

Edit the water marks out

broken plover
#

theres a photoshop tool that lets you do exactly that

#

if you dont have photoshop I can do it for you

long stump
#

boi

tacit plank
#

That's difficult

#

And thanks for the offer, but I probably downloaded 50 different textures so far, so it wouldn't be worth it

broken plover
#

rule 15. No posting the same question or statement across multiple channels

slow halo
#

Why would you admit to that...

broken plover
#

to get attention

slow halo
#

Right

queen mango
#

People love it. Until it starts to disrupt their daily lives.

#

So you admit to doing a cybercrime?

#

That's punishable, you know.

lunar cedar
#

How else can a script kiddy flex on us normies?

broken plover
#

If you hack/destroy someones files/hardware it doesnt matter if that person was a bad guy or someone innocent. You still hacked/destroyed files/hardware

lunar cedar
#

So you hurt an innocent and now you're bragging about it? I don't get it. Are you pychopathic?

#

Please see a psychiatrist ASAP

pseudo basalt
#

You don’t need a psychiatrist for being edgy on the internet

lunar cedar
#

Idk, some probably do

Indeed he did, but it's safe to assume he's probably just a script kiddy that didn't manage to do any of that

tidal aspen
#

lmfao dude said the same thing in a different discord

queen mango
#

Someday, I think that Karma will have a way with him. Times like these, stuff like those get treated seriously.

pseudo basalt
#

I mean, the guy was being very vague. There isn’t much to go off on

#

Vague enough that it seemed like bait

lunar cedar
#

He probably ran a few scripts that claimed to do what he said, but instead got ratted himself.

pseudo basalt
#

Why would anyone go on the Internet and just lie about things

#

Nobody would do that

lunar cedar
#

At least that's what I like to think happened.

tacit plank
#

All software breaks for me, people seemingly can't code worth shit anymore. Unity flickers between the login and welcome screen a few times per second, I can't paste in my credentials fast enough to press login because it clears it

#

I logged into the website, but I can only download assets from within Unity

lunar cedar
#

Did you overwrite an old SDK?

pseudo basalt
#

Did you jam your f5 key?

tacit plank
#

No to both, it's Unity doing it, even without an SDK

#

It's because my computer thinks that it isn't connected to the internet. It tells Unity that I don't have a connection, but I'm online right now...

#

It's shitty software all the way down

lunar cedar
#

I've had glitches with the hub not keeping licenses before, but the editor has always been okay for me. Sounds like a strange bug

I'm the king midas of strange bugs (everything I touch breaks)

Do we have any mods around here?

Thanks.

#

hey why i can't add my new avatar to vrchat?

boreal violet
#

Is uploading enabled on your account?

#

(needs to be a registered account, not your steam account, have a certain amount of hours and social interactions and then you get an email saying you can now upload, it should also say when logged into the sdk in unity)

vocal shard
#

Did vrchat get rid of the kick/warn system?

slate verge
#

no its still there

vocal shard
#

update from 862 to 864, anyone else having an issue with hands and other parts of your own and other's avatars as well as the quickmenu disappearing when getting closer than around 40cm to your own viewpoint? here's an example of what i mean: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615293765237604363/630223275493949462/unknown.png and https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615293765237604363/630223319022436413/unknown.png

the distance with which the parts become invisible gets less with larger avatars but i have no interest in having to run around with a tall (3m+) avatar just to be able to properly give other cute nekos their headpats they deserve, especially as that will just scare them away anyway

torn nebula
#

@vocal shard the distance at which things disappear (the near culling plane) is set by the world's reference camera. If a world does not set this camera, the previous world's setting is preserved. This means that if you visit a world with a distant culling plane you will see that behavior until you visit a world with a closer culling plane configured.

vocal shard
#

Thanks @torn nebula, visiting a new world and then switching back fixed it

torn nebula
#

yep, not just any world will work, worlds without a reference camera will still preserve the prior setting.

vocal shard
#

Any idea if there's a canny for that?

flint ore
#

Is anyone having an issue with the favorites menu glitching out? (When you unfavorite something, it refuses to go away and will end up being re-favorited again.)

torn nebula
#

there are side effects to changing the near clip plane - in particular, the closer the near clip plane is, the worse Z-fighting is for objects with similar distances

gilded valley
#

anyone in here who has ever used the Xbox One kinect for pc have issues with it connecting and disconnecting constantly?

hollow breach
#

I did at the start

#

Make sure you don’t have the mic disabled for the Kinect @gilded valley

#

Keep it on

gilded valley
#

how though

hollow breach
#

Windows settings

gilded valley
#

if its just giga cycling with disconnect and reconnect

hollow breach
#

Sounds options

#

Hmmm

#

If that doesn’t work then idk, try searching something up on google

#

Oh make sure you have the driver installed for it

gilded valley
#

like if i check, i don't see the kinect in the recording devices ;-;

gilded valley
#

i got it to work

#

i disconnected fucking everything usb related and made sure i did blue port and it works now -_- after trying hella ports, im damn sure i put it in this port but w.e im not complaining

playing music from google chrome into vrchat is so hard

I have a quick Q, if I set a public world to private and then later set it to public again, does it have to go through community labs again?

#

not sure when I will start learning how to make my characters do animated tricks/poses...

#

suppose when I figure out what her behaviours are like I guess

#

but I do have two things in mind for a start... one of them which my friend will be teaching me on DM

#

flight (as she has wings and Im sure she can fly with them) and I guess to suit her cuteness maybe she raises her arms forward as if she's offering a hug or something?

vocal shard
#

WHAT I can't do all caps

#

Anyway vrchat upgrading to 2018??

#

Yep ^^

#

I'm looking forward to FRAMES

#

proper multithreading here we come bois

#

Everyone I heard talking about it only mentioned hacked clients being harder to make because it'll be c++ instead of c#

#

Everyone forgot about the whole FRAMES thing

#

Wait so steamvr will finally support directx 12?

#

Rift s

#

I'm 65mm and rift s is fine

#

Rift S is ideal for 64, and works 59-70

#

Within that range, it's usually good. It has a very large sweetspot

#

Huh is that why I don't need glasses with it

#

Rift s is also the superior headset

#

No, that's probably more if your range if clear vision is further than the focal distance

#

Set supersampling to 5 and hmmm yum

#

I'm near sighted

ivory axle
#

yall

vocal shard
#

Like I can drive without glasses if I'm fine breaking the law and not reading signs

ivory axle
#

My ipd is the smallest

#

Idk what number it is but yah

vocal shard
#

Same, but i need glasses in the rift S. I can only see clear about 1.5 feet without them

ivory axle
#

No glasses gang gang

vocal shard
#

My friend who I convinced to buy a rift s turned it to have 60mm ipd and said it was kinda weird

ivory axle
#

Whats the smallest ipd the rift offers

vocal shard
#

Normal Oculus and wmr I could read way better with glasses rift s is clear as day

#

If the IPD is set wrong, it will look weird to you

#

Rift s lenses don't move

#

The rift S has great lenses

#

It's like the wmr iod

#

Ipd onl software

#

@ivory axle the lowest software ipd on rift S is 58mm

ivory axle
#

What about rift

#

Like the good one

#

Lmao

vocal shard
#

I accidently put it on with my glasses and got a scratch I luckaly can't notice with it on but normal Oculus handled that better when it because my fug it backup headset

#

58.8-70.2 is what my rift can be adjusted to

ivory axle
#

Kool

vocal shard
#

How well does it handle lower ipds though

ivory axle
#

Good

#

I have very low ipd like the smallest the oculus can do

#

I was gonna upgrade to vive and fbt next month but imma wait until a better model gets released in the next year

vocal shard
#

Better model? Of what?

split finch
#

so i just found out im still visitor rank i have been vrchat for over a year im sure i have more then enough hours that sucks 😩

vocal shard
#

My friend swears it seems weird to them but admitted it might be because they just realized they're 60mm

#

Index is out, and Vive is making the Cosmos their next headset

#

Rift S and quest are here

ivory axle
#

Like vive will probably release another product that will be the upgrade of the normal vive

vocal shard
#

You on a steam account?

ivory axle
#

Index is too much im just gonna be patient

vocal shard
#

I doubt that. The Cosmos is their new flagship

#

@split finch

ivory axle
#

Legit i bought the rift and the rift s got released the week after

broken plover
#

they did bring out the cosmos, but that needs optimizing first. alot. especially the tracking

vocal shard
#

Index is really good too

ivory axle
#

The cosmos doesnt look my thing imo

vocal shard
#

But I dislike how vrchat handles geastures with it

ivory axle
#

Yeah well i dont have 1k in mypocket

vocal shard
#

It's a fun gimmick but rift controllers are the superior gaming controllers

ivory axle
#

Yes

broken plover
#

speaking of index. Have they finally fixed the stick clicking issue?

ivory axle
#

Bo

vocal shard
#

My controllers are fine

ivory axle
#

No

vocal shard
#

Didn't put too much stress on them though one of them is a hip tracker now

ivory axle
#

I know someone who has replaced their controllers 5 times via warranty

vocal shard
#

I messed up my index cable

#

Do I just email them or what

ivory axle
#

Only advantage ive seen with index in vrc is just for mutes who do sign language

#

Like gameplay wise

vocal shard
#

It's not that accurate

split finch
#

no im not guess its cause i dont add anyone i stay to myself oh well one day should happen i just cant build till then

ivory axle
#

Ik the quality is good but like "yay i can move my pinkies"

vocal shard
#

Better off using custom anims on rift controllers for sign language imo

#

It's jenky sometimes

#

Can't move fingers side to side

#

Just back and fourth

ivory axle
#

Im just waiting until something better gets released

vocal shard
#

Can't organically change emotes on the fly

#

Probably going to be waiting 3 years for a new headset

#

Can't put middle finger up for rock and roll and it's hard to pull off

ivory axle
#

And something will get released because what will companies do just not produce anything for a whole year? Nah theyll be developing something

broken plover
#

they even had a glove that tracks each finger in the 19xx WHY DONT WE HAVE IT NOW??

ivory axle
#

Yeah id rather wait than spend a ton on something not potentially good now

vocal shard
#

Probably hard to pull off cost efficient and robust

ivory axle
#

Index still has faults

vocal shard
#

It's a great headset

ivory axle
#

But every headset thatll be relased has something new about it

vocal shard
#

Good audio

ivory axle
#

Thats why im waiting

#

Yeah im aware @vocal shard ie researched into all headsets

vocal shard
#

Rift s is comparable to it for cheaper

#

Screen wise

ivory axle
#

Yep.. i know.

vocal shard
#

Hm

ivory axle
#

I dont have much atm either so if i were to get a vive and fbt id be broke

vocal shard
#

I like rift S. The screen feels like it has more sde to me compared to wmr, but everything else i like more about it

#

Get that cdl dude

snow wadi
#

You don't need FBT right off the bat, it can wait.

vocal shard
#

@vocal shard didn't Lenovo help make it

ivory axle
#

Ive had the original oculus for a year

vocal shard
#

@vocal shard yeah
