@rigid crescent I fell asleep pc experience was better than the quest much more entertaining & fun playing vr chat on the quest was a mistake I shall not repeat wireless is fun but nah I feel like it causes motion sickness a lot
That's all vr
You gotta get used to it
Not to confuse it with oh my pc is better in a way to show off

Im an Quest user as i have one thing to say change your avatar to PC plaform to PC and quest plaform at same time so i dont have to look at grey bodys

@zinc scaffold if you think its that easy that do it for us
good luck decimating a 70K poly model to under 7k so some toddlers can see it
zinc scaffold
@hollow sluice i have friend sasha that he have 40k poly avatar as i survive his avatar
Ask him about it
@covert blade
umbral reef
So your logic that one avatar being totally unoptimized for the quest means they all can be that bad?
zinc scaffold
Now i have to go and do something.
As it depend
hollow sluice
@zinc scaffold learn fucking english before complaining about people not optimizing their avatars
gilded helm
whoa
covert blade

gilded helm
let's calm down a bit tho
hollow sluice
I am fucking curious how many of them you have converted to be quest compatible
than talk shit
covert blade
I don't get what's going on so imma head off somewhere else now
gilded helm
idk why this even started
covert blade
Oh well
vocal shard
I think they were just saying that even if you don't have a quest optimized avatar, as a quest user they still appreciate people uploading their "unoptimized" avatar to the quest build so they atleast have the option to see them
It feels more like they are demanding that we optimize for quest
gilded helm
prob language barrier
twin fractal
a lot of avatars can be uploaded to quest basically as is but people don't even try
gilded helm
even though that person is quite weird
got dmed and he asked for "nsfw avatar worlds for quest"
twin fractal
LMAO
waxen lark
why is there like no good male avatars im so confused a lot of female ones look sick but so hard to find male avatars
do i gotta pay someone to make me one or what is this
gilded helm
Cause men don't look as good
and nobody wants to be a man
in a place you can be a woman
waxen lark
I would not be comfortable playing as a female avatar thats kinda weird
broken plover
same
gilded helm
ive played female avatars my whole life so I'm used to it
broken plover
I just look around for wolfboys and take the best ones

I have to play as meme male avatars my whole life i guess

Maybe I can be User forever~
gilded helm
you can display yourself as an User

Does it never automatically switch back for ya?
hollow ingot
I'm just a User right now. I sometimes would get blocked and/or kicked though. ._.
Being muted by others won't hurt you? Mic always disabled here.
devout berry
Want to see Quest user yelling the hell on someone to fix their avatar, when the PC user have a commissioned one and cannot do anything with Blender and with Unity can just upload.
covert blade
@vocal shard That was the original reason I uploaded mine for Quest, but I got rid of 'em
The only Quest avatar I have now is one that is actually Quest optimized 
rigid crescent
Yeah sure I'll upload a Quest avatar. Oh wait, I can't test it nor will I ever get to experience it in any way whatsoever nor will most people I meet
sounds like the best way to waste a bunch of time lol
covert blade
Pretty much
That's why the only Quest avatar I have is the one that came with a Quest optimized version
Otherwise, it's just annoying to switch to Android build and reupload an avatar that barely anyone will ever see and that is 
on Quest
rigid crescent
It's so strange that a platform is released that requires cooperation and creation almost exclusively from people who will never be able to experience it lol
Like how much Quest content is actually made by Quest users lol
rigid crescent
i mean there's quest only worlds too
covert blade
vocal shard
so it's just a bunch of opaque planes `?
rigid crescent
yet we get people in here who dont seem to realize that and i feel like its because theyre empty lol
rigid crescent
its like quest users dont wanna hang out with quest users lol
covert blade
But that actually has practical uses and benefits
rigid crescent
Like just imagine the thought process releasing the quest version the way they did
"so yeah, basically most of the content has to be made by people who can't even experience it"
vocal shard
"let's release a game that barely function on PC for a phone VR"
rigid crescent
Because really, how much tech'savvy Quest users do we get in here vs all the "unga bunga quest good me want see all avatar just give it time" type?

Ah ok. Thanks for the reply. Will keep a look out.
vocal shard
just need to be lucky and find a good group for you
pseudo rivet
Ok thank you :)
vocal shard
with my old group we usually hang around in private for 1h max, just talking about random things and then we would jump in public worlds to meet other people
so you may find some groups like that
Its hard to find older people, every day more and more teens play the game and its hard to meet people. I've had generally okay luck finding older people to talk to in Drinking Night. Though they are usually drinking/drunk.
but you'll just have to world jump a lot to find a world that isn't cancer
it's a lot of luck to find a decent instance where people are actually talking normally
pseudo rivet
Yep I'm usually having a few beers but nothing too harsh. Just would like to experience Vrchat in a decent adult manner, rather than seeing hundreds of teens in front of mirrors talking trash and groping each other. But yeah I'll keep looking for a group. Thanks all. :)
devout berry
Yeah. Last time I came to hub and a whole group of kiddos just totally annoyed me. I think, that maybe raising age limits to those of social network (18+) would help.
And make the user enter birth date in registration. I don't know, how the registration form looks now, but when I came, there were just fields for username, email and password and a "I read TOS" checkbox.
verbal hamlet
Really.... Like a teen doesn't know how those fields work.
vocal shard
you'll remove more than half the playerbase
devout berry
That is a "little" problem. And I see no solution to that.
pseudo rivet
There could be a 18+ server which would solve a lot of issues.
vocal shard
@covert blade think you could make a wedding world?
devout berry
Yeah.
@pseudo rivet
That would be pretty good, but I don't think that devs want to maintain two release servers.

Not so much - imposters are everywhere.

Yea I do. If by creating an account youd need age verification such as a credit card for example.
covert blade
Take your parents credit card
verbal hamlet
Some teens even have their own.
devout berry
Ok, easy - make them verify through their ID card.
covert blade
Also what if someone doesnt have a CC?
ruby needle
Yeah... no. You definitely dont want to do that.
devout berry
But that is overboard.
tame sapphire
Yeah there's mostly thirsty teenagers, furries, and memesters

Really? With a statement saying VRchat on it? I'd kill my kids if they did that.
pseudo rivet
I'm sure there are other ways of age verification if not a cc

quite annoying.
verbal hamlet
Who is Lola?
covert blade
A streamer
vocal shard
lolathon
covert blade
Aka one of those people who just try to get a reaction out of you because other players are just content basically
vocal shard
a vrchat streamer that actually do something instead of looking at a mirror
pseudo basalt
Isn't that most streamers
covert blade
It is
verbal hamlet
Hmmm
vocal shard
it is but at least he make some stuff to show off from time to time
pseudo basalt
People looking for content surrounded by people who are desperately trying to get noticed
covert blade
Which is why I mostly look down upon people streaming
twin fractal
lolathon is alright
covert blade
He has a mic but doesn't use it ingame
twin fractal
moons avatars are funnier imo
covert blade
Goddamn that person and he's on my friends list too
Then again, I didn't know Moon was a streamer until later
vocal shard
I avoid those streamers like the plague
Quite sad because I'm sure they are quite decent if they didn't just try to go for content
covert blade
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
I just know that if they keep shoving blue gnomes into my face I won't be stickin' around with 'em for very long
vocal shard
I usually leave as soon as I see them
All their followers are going to join and the instance will just be unplayable
covert blade
Well, I'm not that deep into the VRChat YouTuber and Streaming scene so most of 'em I won't recognize
broken plover
I once ran into VRTrapman while he was just chilling without streaming and he was like half a different person kind of
and also oathmeal and lanfear
rough pulsar
The vast majority of them do put on an act for the stream. Off stream they're very different.
gilded helm
I usually end up blocking the streamers I meet
covert blade
Which usually makes them annoying
vocal shard
but you rarely see them off stream unfortunately, so you usually just have a bad experience with them
I don't know most YouTubers or streamers. Usually if they and their orbiters join, I shy away in the corner and eventually leave. They're usually loud and not really my personality.
Although if I ever meet any when they aren't streaming and their fans aren't joining they're usually chill
covert blade
So most of the people I know who are streaming are just, playing the game
Not doing anything special just for the stream
gilded helm
pretty much what you should do while streaming
vocal shard
Jamie, you're a bean
covert blade
And then there's people who just use silly avatars all the time
That's nice the first time, after the 3rd time I'm kinda done with it though
vocal shard
you can also use an anti stream shader π
gilded helm
wait what is that svel
covert blade
Probs something that is equally as annoying as the people streaming
gilded helm
I just block the streamers cause I would probably end up having them banned
vocal shard
it's a shader that only works when you look at it through the camera/stream-camera
devout berry
I like Nagzz21's VRChat Adventures. Shame he discontinued the series. Just catching up, what I haven't seen.
broken plover
what about the streamers that stream through "first person view"
vocal shard
so the streamer will see nothing special but the people watching the stream will see the image i decided to overlay
broken plover
imo its like someone doing a vlog irl
gilded helm
aka annoying
broken plover
not really that annoying for me
my preffered way of watching streams is when they have 3rd person view and 1st person view. So you can see it like they see everything and an extra view angle for the stream
covert blade
I prefer playing the game rather than watching streams
I wanna meet people myself, not watch someone do it
gilded helm
I just wanna know the fuck people manage to have proper setups with their OVRToolkit
rough pulsar
Sometime back during the population surge of 2018 when there were regular service outages, I remember getting stuck in an instance (user-user networking was fine, but vrc API was down, so world switching, logging in, etc didn't work) and a bunch of us long time users were out in a public instance and we had some small-time streamer with us and ended up playing some party games and stuff while the servers came back online.
Also yes Sasha 1000% agree. If I want to have an interaction I want to do it myself, not watch other people do it, like why?
broken plover
The only streamers I watch are meme streamers because the avatars are funny
gilded helm
people who are shy i guess

or people who can't afford a VR headset

If I can't be in VRC in VR for whatever reason I'd rather go play an actual game.
To me VRC isn't a game at all, it's where I go to hang out with friends.
covert blade
There is only a single person who I would consider watching their streams, and that is someone I actually know myself
rough pulsar
For all the shit people give WMR it isn't awful, just not as good as the rest.
broken plover
I sometimes watch streams when I got nothing else to do because 1. I'm lazy 2. my internet is slow and it takes forever to load worlds and avatars and 3. I often don't have anyone to join on and then I'm bored and just exit out of vrc again
gilded helm
Also, to be fair
devout berry
User xbox controller when on desktop. Mouse + keyboard have less functions.
gilded helm
people who are bored at work or can't play
devout berry
With controller, it is really a lot better.
covert blade
The only thing that changes is that you can rotate objects, assuming the world creator allowed it
Not a huge game changer for me imo
near saffron
Pretty funny to do tho
covert blade
They can, with a controller
rough pulsar
Only streams I've watched that weren't painfully cringy are event streams where the focus isn't on a single person, or is to act as a portal through to what's going on, like the community meetup streams.
gilded helm
controllers are shite
devout berry
Ahh, do I see a member of "Purge desktopers" club?
covert blade

Amnesia has the rotation of objects by holding down a key and moving your mouse

Vote for it on canny and pray the mighty VRPill.
covert blade
VRChat has it for controllers

They seem to be quietly fixing that
Balanced Mode Radiators, a hybrid speaker design.

I wish you could take off the speakers tbh
rough pulsar
You can

You can
rough pulsar
they just screw on
gilded helm
I don't mean in that way
rough pulsar
then in what way
gilded helm
Taking it off without having a goddamn screw
gilded helm
a plug of some sort, being able to take it off whenever you want to
rough pulsar
I hate going back to on-ear speakers after using the index for a bit
broken plover
I wish I could try the index, but I don't know anyone near me that has one :/
vocal shard
I'm sure it sounds awesome. My only concern is when I play at night and noise leaking when others are trying to sleep
gilded helm
Also, I wonder if it's possible to turn off the directional sounds on the speakers
like having no surround sound
verbal hamlet
I would just like a VR headset.
gilded helm
You haven't gotten your socialism money yet
When you enter highschool you will get it
vocal shard
Take my quest ( jk) π
rough pulsar
@vocal shard The noise leak doesn't have any significant range. If they're in a different room to you it will not be an issue at all.
vocal shard
Cool
rough pulsar
The volume has a really strange falloff to it, probably because of the speaker & back design.
https://www.valvesoftware.com/en/index/deep-dive/ear-speakers
If you haven't had a read of this I suggest doing so, goes into a lot of detail on the designing and subtler features of the earspeakers.
pseudo basalt
Actually really curious about those speakers
Would like to try it some day
But i'm also wondering why haven't we seen similar third party solutions just yet
rough pulsar
Valve did have custom drivers made for theirs, so the set in the Index may not be exactly from off the shelf parts.
devout berry
Btw, fun fact about WMRs in Czech Republic - it is usually like this:
- new WMR is announced with international release
- Czech e-shops list it as waiting for
- it releases, but not in Czech Republic; shops still list it as waiting for
- the manufacturer discontinues it, but Czech e-shops still wait for the Czech release
I know it, because I looked JFF at models listed on one of our e-shops. Over half of them got already discontinued and the shops still give "waiting for" status on the listing.

Hey, quick discussion on modified clients
I just learned that they're a thing, and for a while too
has VRC dev dealt with any of them?
why are they still around?
devout berry
When you deal with one, another pops up, that does it another way. To stop them, it would require a pretty big "anti-cheat" system, but that would hinder the performance. That is my view.
wet sluice
C# was not a language that accounted for security, though it has improved with AOT/IL2CPP
That isn't in vrchat live though, only vrchat beta is using that
weary sky
I've seen one that's sold for 18.99, which seems kinda absurd to me
to pay for something that might stop working sooner or later
wheat cape
People are idiots
weary sky
let alone, unofficial and discouraged by the devs
wet sluice
It will break and the entire skillset of the mod author won't be useful to break the AOT compiled version that's coming 
weary sky
So when should we expect that modded clients would finally not work anymore?
or can't be made anymore
devout berry
Totally stopped? I think never, but reduced when the next update comes.
Nothing is unbreakable.
wet sluice
Since the beta has no release date, that's not really answerable
weary sky
I understand that the practice will never be stopped, but what I would like is to see it get heavily reduced to the point of being no longer in the greyarea
as it is now
soft bear
hey
wet sluice
Sure, nothing is unbreakable, but the current mod author's don't know how to hack a native game. Not to mention that even if they did, the amount of time required is greatly increased. Definitely not worth bothering considering low profit and low gain from it. People with that skillset hack csgo and overwatch, not vrchat.
gilded helm
I don't mind clients as long as they don't have the stupid shit
i hate the portal placing features and other malicious shit that people think is considered as "fun"
weary sky
yes, generally the malicious features that I don't approve of
rough pulsar
Just in case it's unclear to anyone, use of any client modifications are against the TOS and can result in a ban, no matter how 'harmless' you think it is.
It also opens you up to potentially bad shit because wow running untrusted code on your system? Hello malware & more.
weary sky
^
gilded helm
Very true, but I won't disapprove of people using clients to improve their experience
rough pulsar
That said, you're free to do whatever the fuck you like with SteamVR itself as that is not part of VRChat.
weary sky
unfortunately, some VRC players are paying 18.99 for the modded client

Don't know what should I think about ReShade, but to be safe, I won't use it.

I like ReShade, but I don't mind the rule of thumb of not using it in MP games

Il2cpp luckily doesn't just break clients, but provides a potential for significant performance gains.

I genuinely think that a content wipe is practically suicide for the game lol

just put a worker that downloads every avatar, then checks it for crashing or extremely laggy shit, and just deletes it off the server, giving a tempban to the user the amount of days equivalent to the number of avatars that they had deleted.

Pretty much the only two in my favourites I even slightly care about are this disasterous ARK otter port that squishes in on a gesture, and the Tesco Value version of my avatar someone semi-accidentally made.
It farts glitter.
frosty veldt
The devs have done so much to prevent content loss in the 2018 update there's no way they would say fuck it and wipe it anyways
rough pulsar
Unless a change to the graphics system has more benefits than trashing a load of old content.
and to be fair if you don't keep your source files to be able to re-upload it's your own fucking fault.
frosty veldt
Well there's a difference it "5.6 stuff breaking" and a full content wipe
fossil root
I need to make a Walmart Great Value version of my avatar lmfao

It's fully understandable if old stuff breaks but a full blown content wipe would just make the game empty for like 1-2 months

do not put your penis inside the quest
verbal hamlet
Hmm
devout berry
I think, that content wipe would be around the same disaster seriousness as purging all desktop players, like some VR purist want on canny.
frosty veldt
If they were to do a long transition period then we need better info on our avatars. You can check which unity versions your world is uploaded on but not for avatars.
At the moment if you want info on your avatar you need some crazy naming sequence to remind yourself

Only time when I am found muted in game and never touching voice button is, when I do world exploration and accidently stumble into portal to public instance. Otherwise I use invite only instances to be able to explore and not bother other people in the world.

@devout berry you know you can set it so you don't need to constantly hold the talk button, right?

Yeah, but my parents and brother don't like when the mic is picking them up, so I minimalize by having it on PTT.

And on the controller it is not as annoying as on keyboard.
If I remember correctly it's on B, and hitting any other button while holding this one down is pretty easy.

Question: how do I find somewhat normal world's that aren't either empty or full of people not really talking and just showing off meme characters?
gilded helm
go into a hot world pref first 10
click on like the 4th instance with a pop that is 70% of player cap
bronze plaza
Alrighty, thanks.

ee I'm trying to find a Zero Two avatar that has her red uniform and white jacket ._.
apparently though there is no avatar world that has it :( feelsbadman
deft island
how come most of the avatars I try to use have their eyes closed by default and pressing the trigger buttons opens them.
rigid crescent
it sounds like there might be an issue with your controls
deft island
I use oculus touch controllers

That feel when you were just in a great world but then an error happens and your game closes unexpectedly and you're thrown back into the wmr loading area
Is there a way to go back to the exact world you were just in?
fossil root
yes, lookup VRChat Rejoin Tool
tacit plank
Sounds like a modification which isn't allowed and might take your password. Well, potentially
fossil root
it looks at your game log to get the IDs of the last instances you were in and starts the game with the link to it
it is NOT a game mod

For the time being, I guess you should find somebody with a gigabit connect to laugh at him, doubt he can take that down

also @bronze plaza try switching to the wmr for steamvr beta, or steamvr beta itself, ik there was a random crash bug that got fixed for wmr at some point

a gigabit connection doesnt safe you against real DDOS's

tacit plank
True, but if he's reading peoples IPs to them chances are he's a dumb teenager getting a kick out of a client he downloaded from a script kiddie forum

he does have a client

Please follow the instructions in #moderation-reports
lime sage
he can see it in VR chat, he teleports and is immune to lobby host kicks
tacit plank
And that he isn't really a threat. Immune to kicks sound strange, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a security hole there lol
If you have his info, call his mom and tell her that her son is being mean to people online π

2000+ hours of VR in VRChat and other applications, can play for 8 hour marathon sessions and not even flinch. But 5 minutes of Minecraft in VR makes me feel like I'm going to puke and require emergency headset removal. How can you mess up VR so badly?

vivecraft or bedrock?
hollow ingot
Wow game why u du me like that?
I'ma known user now~
bronze plaza
Bedrock MC felt pretty good so I dunno what you're saying
rigid crescent
Minecraft VR is a 3rd party mod isn't it? That's probably how
or is there a first party one
wet sluice
Bedrock is 1st party and very smooth
90 fps 100% of the time. It doesn't handle roomscale very well though.
Never tried vivecraft
pseudo basalt
I played vivecraft
It's just.. vr minecraft
But it has lots of settings to play around with
desert stratus
official minecraft vr build lets you have "a stand" according to my friend
pseudo basalt
So it's probably a looot more customizable than bedrock
desert stratus
basically your player character is actually bound to the world / center of your playspace instead of your hmd + controllers
pseudo basalt
heck
desert stratus
so you can walk beyond bounds, through walls, and generally extend your range of affect with wallhacks
pseudo basalt
that sounds pretty bad
pseudo basalt
vivecraft lets you do pretty much what you'd expect
desert stratus
Fuck sitting
pseudo basalt
you can swing your stuff manually or click your trigger to do things
mining blocks is super slow if you swing

I am waiting to get an RTX card before diving into minecraft vr

Hi everyone! Has anyone bought controller grips for an Oculus Rift cv1? I canβt seem to find any for the older controllers
inner cape
well, they dont make those anymore, no wonder its rare.. or just downright extinct
vocal shard
Do the ones for the rift S fit the CV1 controllers?
I guess it depends what type of grip you're talking about
twin fractal
I think the design are pretty similar between cv1 and rifts/quest?

Does anyone know how to search for worlds? The website search doesn't appear to be working well.

Does that search any better than the website though?
I'm told it searches descriptions but that might not be true.

Search for furry in the search
steady carbon
best way I have found is find others with anthro avatars and ask them
or commission a custom one
vocal shard
i got voicemod pro and it says i have to wait a few hours is that normal?
white current
is it normal that youtube playlist wont work in vrchat ?
i can only play normal videos which is kinda annoying to always take off the vr-headset to play the next video / song
also do you know if there is a player for music in vrchat?
for soundcloud for example
gleaming kraken
wish my beatles avatar world would leave community labs soon, its been in there way longer than i expected
vocal shard
First you go on the Ed Sullivan show
steady carbon
Anyone else experience others being able to clone your avatar when it is unchecked locally for you?
had that happen tonight. I had to check and uncheck it for myself to get it to be actually off.
vocal shard
Since modified clients are used by half the players, I would guess that you actually had the setting properly working but they can just ignore it and clone anyway
indigo fern
one of two things, there are clients that can clone any public, and sometimes the thing actually does scuff
steady carbon
ya seems to be the later since checking and unchecking it turned it off for others as well
still lark
used by half the players
@vocal shard Got any proof for that stat?
rigid crescent
no
lol
Worst place for the discussion, but I wonder if the "force clone" just grabs the avatar ID and changes your model or if it actually makes use of the clone function and exploits it
indigo fern
if occams razor is anything to go by, its probably the first since you can even do it without a client
rigid crescent
yup
raven mango
you are ther for

@still lark my own experience when i go to any random instance and I won't detail more π

deft island
why is it so hard to find good male avatars π
fading flower
Because everyone wants to be the "cute" anime girl
deft island
I tried using a anime girl avatar and people kept asking why I was using a female avatar
all the male avatars that pop up for me are the eboy and wolf boy ones
fading flower
Yeah
I always go with male models
Even if it's a pokemon, they sometimes have gender differences
deft island
yeah
fading flower
Catch me as long horned sudowoodo or smaller abdomin scizor
If it's not them I'm either a different male character or a spartan
Such as the recent AZ model I made or the pyro
fading flower
Have you tried inevanables world
deft island
I don't think so
fading flower
He makes them specifically fornVR
deft island
I'll check it out
fading flower
Pokenexus
Or even my stadium I made
I gotta update that world but I got some mons there
deft island
you made one?
fading flower
Ye

neat

I mean they are just basic rigs
Some with dynamic bones
But its better than the generic rigs with game animations

vocal shard
anyone mind helping with avatar stuff ?
cunning basalt
What are going on whit all the clients?
vocal shard
Nothing much
cunning basalt
The VRChat team dosent care that people are using them?
devout berry
Not that they don't care, but they work on port to unity 2018, which should reduce number of them. Shouldn't that easy to hack as this version.
To stop them now, it would require some technics, that would make the performance worse.
vocal shard
From c# to c++ so all modified clients will be broken
cunning basalt
Ah okey
vocal shard
Until someone make one in c++
cunning basalt
I just started to see more people that fly or use force cloning and one that could respawn people
And also saw one on steam that said someone got some personal information from him
How long you thing it takes before they are done?
devout berry
Don't know.
But we can go play beta.
Just persuade your friends to go to beta release with you.
- I think that there will be less annoying kids on beta release.
cunning basalt
The kids arent the problem
Mostly the people using clients making everybody unsafe
devout berry
Yep. I meant that just the way, that by using beta you get bonus of less annoyances. And yeah, you will run from the hackers this way.
Hackers are on release only, aren't they?
cunning basalt
I only played on released and thats where i seen them
But whats diffrent whit beta then?
umbral reef
that no one plays on it as its only for testing really
devout berry
New features, can have bugs.
And, it is dedicated on it's own server from normal release.
cunning basalt
So it arent really a place to meet new people?
devout berry
Nope. You have to bring your own friends, because on beta are just volunteer testers.
But if you cannot wait anymore, you can try it.
cunning basalt
Think im just going to stick whit the already released then.
sour ruin
Damn I'm absolutely loving VRChat I'm brand new and am only playing for 2 days on desktop mode with no vr. I've always been terrible at communication and this is just too fun. I do hope the new release solves a lot of the hacked clients.
umbral reef
well some things will get fixed but not everything
Something like avatar stealing cant go away because of how tech works and how unity works
sour ruin
Yeah that's not a big concern for me but I get why it is for people.
Ive met soo many cool people already and it's only been 2 days... I played for like 16 hours today... or yesterday i guess
cunning basalt
@sour ruin you got alot more to explore and try
sour ruin
Oh I'm sure lol
cunning basalt
Took me some time but i found a group of lovely people that im talking whit nearly every day now
sour ruin
That's awesome I talked to several groups of people today for hours each.
tacit plank
If my headset has a problem and is disconnected, my windows sound change back to another device. Even if I change it back, I can't hear anything in VRC before restarting it.
And usually, SteamVR dies as well, which is only fixed by restarting my computer.
If any of my trackers time out when i use FBT, my controllers switch places, making my feet trackers act like controllers, this makes it impossible to interact with anything.
Any way to solve these problems? I might be a firmware version behind on some of the devices and maybe I can dedicate controllers to a specific role? Besides that I'm not sure what to do
cunning basalt
@sour ruin i will say that you should keep being yourself. Just keep talking whit people and one day you may find a group that you really like
tacit plank
It sucks to having to restart my computer, configure sound settings, start steamVR to turn on all devices as about half of them are on when my computer is, then close steamVR to close all devices, then turning them on in the right order, and then starting VRChat
vocal shard
Not gonna lie, I'm a little intimidated to try VRchat. It looks so vast and complicated in terms of making avatars. Can't seem to get a Ditto one working.
umbral reef
ironically enough something like a ditto is way more complex then a humanoid avatar so your not really wrong
vocal shard
I've seen ditto avatars on Youtube too. So I know they work, lol.
umbral reef
They work, but are not easy to get going and take more then one tutorial to properly make
tacit plank
It's a bit of a hurdle to learn, but once you learn it you can do most things
vocal shard
They are mostly made as a generic rigged Avatar but you don't have access to gestures
So what people do is use a dummy humanoid armature but that's out of scope for a totally new person
hardy acorn
Idk if this is the best place to ask but anyone who uses full body how do I stop so much hip jiggle? I have the track strap around my hips pretty tight and from me just jigging around, not really dancing much it jiggles a lot compared to other people no matter the avatar I've found
vocal shard
Do you happen to be a thicker person?
And this would prob be best in #full-body-tracking
cunning basalt
@umbral reef you know any good tutorials for making humanoid creatures.
desert stratus
@hardy acorn if the strap is secure its probably tracking fun times
check lights and reflective surfaces in your room
hardy acorn
@vocal shard I should have checked over the channels, thanks for sending me in the right direction :')
@desert stratus I don't have the best setup and I'm using 1.0 base stations so could just be up to bad tracking yeah
desert stratus
reflective surfaces will cuck you over
idk about lighting but generally you want even lighting throughout your room
not 100% dark, nor 100% sunlight
hardy acorn
I already got rid of anything reflective, I'm even turning my phone over just in case LOL
Guess I'm just gonna have to mess around with my setup and lighting and see what the other channel says etc.
faint skiff
I had that issue, if none of the other trackers are doing it, it's not likely the room.
Where are the receivers for the trackers positioned?
hardy acorn
Yeah my foot trackers seem to be okay, not great because old base stations but better than the hip does
faint skiff
The issue in my case was because the receivers were too close to each other. Spaced them out, all the issues went away.
hardy acorn
I usually just pop them on top of my laptop keyboard, I have spaced them but unfortunetly due to using a laptop I'm a little short on usb ports
faint skiff
Make sure there's at least 10cm between them and don't put them on/next to anything that may reflect the signal, e.g. a metal laptop
desert stratus
usb hub / extension time
hardy acorn
Ahh god damn I didn't even think of the laptop having reflections, gonna have to do a mess about once I can get to it
I have a usb hub but I thought that could be messing me about too
devout berry
USB extensions should be a part of toolbox of every VR user. You never know, when the USB screws you.
desert stratus
both powered and unpowered
either or os better on a case by case by situation by circumstance by hardware by peripheral (individual) scenario
devout berry
What am I saying? Extensions for everything the setup needs should be part of VR user's toolbox!
desert stratus
since you have to balance range with overloading bandwidth
devout berry
Usually it boils down to graphic cable extensions, USB extensions and power extensions.
And for USB and graphic both active and inactive types.
wet sluice
Using a powered USB hub at the end of one 6ft works well, but audio doesn't make through the first unpowered extension.
An unpowered 10ft HDMI cable handles quite well, at least when an Odyssey+ is on the end of it. Not sure about others.
vocal shard
@hardy acorn no problem
faint skiff
The receivers come with extension cords anyway.
vocal shard
I love this game!

hey guys i cant load peoples avatars fast any problem with that
it happens on both vr and pc
it takes a while to load 2 people
its probably not my gpu i have a 970
broken plover
must be your internet
my internet is slow and it takes me forever to load avatars and worlds
vocal shard
I don't know i have 150 to 250 mbps
my friend has a lower gpu and lower mbps and still loads all characters ):
wet sluice
What CPU? Also 970 is lowest possible card to run VR. It's not surprising you can't run the heavy unoptimized avatars that stress out 1080s and 2080s
wet sluice
That should be okay, last critical part. How much RAM?
vocal shard
16 gb
my pc is the Rog g20 970
you can read all the specs in the ROG website
i deleted the game and re installed it
that didnt work
my Vr headset is the vive
wet sluice
Are you around 85% full on an SSD?
vocal shard
hmm
wet sluice
Or more
vocal shard
have 400 or so left on my 1.8 tb
covert blade
Oof
snow wadi
You should never use above 80% on SSD space.
covert blade
Random question: Why not?
broken plover
because
covert blade
Wow
vocal shard
problem is
broken plover
(jk idk why)
vocal shard
i've been running with issues ever since my pc fell on its side
broken plover
get a new 10k$ pc
vocal shard
bro
covert blade
That is an entirely different problem
vocal shard
give me money
covert blade
Pff, earn it yarself :D
broken plover
I only have to tell you that I have a probably 10year old cpu and an rx560 and you would already know that I don't have any money myself :/
wet sluice
SSDs use free space to manage physical file positions
vocal shard
also fairly sure that SSD thing is outdated with new ones now
snow wadi
If you use up over 80%, the performance will degrade.
vocal shard
i noticed that
wet sluice
Nope, manufacturers still don't overprovision enough because they can make storage sizes larger
wheat cape
I'm over 50% I'm going to go delete files now
snow wadi
You basically leave no blocks for your files to get dumped into for temp write.
vocal shard
so what your saying is i format my pc?
snow wadi
No actually you should see what's taking up your space there.
wet sluice
Just do some cleaning, no need to format
snow wadi
Use Treesize to check.
vocal shard
treesize?
wheat cape
I think one of my fans stopped working
snow wadi
It will tell you exactly where all your space is going.
wet sluice
Or du -hd 1
wheat cape
Second treesize
wet sluice
All you non Linux users here....
vocal shard
Gives you some nice visuals too
snow wadi
Pro-tip : Hibernation takes up space so disabling it is a good idea. You get about 4 to 6GB of space back.
wet sluice
WSL is great
charred tulip
i missed even more-
wheat cape
I'll dual boot Linux for development otherwise I never use it
vocal shard
@snow wadi if i restart my pc it takes atleast 4-5 minutes max 6 just to load up
wheat cape
Yikes
snow wadi
Yeah that's because there aren't enough blocks to temp write.
wet sluice
Get WSL, so many basic tasks that either require complex powershell or more third party software can be done in a simple default ubuntu executable
snow wadi
So what's happening is it's hot swapping between your RAM and SSD way too much.
charred tulip
hmmmmmm
frigid zenith
hey uhh does anyone know if theres a way to find someones steam account from the Steam_numbershere thats on their vrchat profile on the website? was my first vrchat friend years ago and we havent talked in a loong time xd
snow wadi
If they're using a VRChat account, no.
vocal shard
i think ill need a new SSD
frigid zenith
feelsbad
vocal shard
rip wallet ):
frigid zenith
well they have the numbers after their name so ithinks its a steam name
covert blade
steam_ID is a Steam ACC, not a VRC one
gilded helm
i dont get those who have vrc accounts
covert blade
What about those?
gilded helm
but keep the letters after their name
frigid zenith
hmm i dunno. o well. i tried doing a steam ID finder of his but meh
vocal shard
1.4 tb on windows tf?
covert blade
You just take the ID and paste it into the URL for Steam ACC's
covert blade
@gilded helm I'm more curious about people who merge their Steam account, have a new name, but for some reason on the website it'll still say it's a Steam acc
vocal shard
with magic usually and a lot of luck
covert blade
I've seen people change the user name of their Steam acc like that.... or remove the random letters from their name even though it still says it's a steam acc
frigid zenith
oh ye i tried that but it said profile could not be found, yet on the steamid finder site theres a username and profile pic preview
vocal shard
@snow wadi Sorry for @ing you but it says 1.4 tb on windows
gilded helm
honestly I have no idea
vocal shard
check your temp folder
snow wadi
^
snow wadi
Actually Ccleaner can chuck your rubbish out.
wet sluice
Settings->System->Storage->cleanup
vocal shard
go where the tmp folder is, right click on it and go into property
gilded helm
ccleaner KEK
vocal shard
and check the site of that folder
gilded helm
There should be a program called disk cleaner
on your computer, it deletes all that shit
vocal shard
alright im opening up ccleaner
snow wadi
Ccleaner does the same thing... >_>
vocal shard
xD
fading flower
hmmst
gilded helm
why would you download a program that does the same job
vocal shard
Ccleaner removes a lot more stuff
snow wadi
Thing is the built in one doesn't clean everything.
vocal shard
like the cache from internet browsers
and it's basically idiot proof since you can just press one button and it does everything for you
gilded helm
true retard proof
snow wadi
And it most certainly does not clear out broken registries.
gilded helm
or just temp
snow wadi
Just get an app that needs one click and you're done.
gilded helm
ive never actually needed ccleaner
minor flame
Or system 32
vocal shard
or Windows
so i went to blizzard launcher to see if destiny is still installed it said no on the app it says it is
minor flame
Just kidding
wet sluice
Me neither. Chrome storage clear and windows built in storage clear is equivalent.
gilded helm
ye lol
cache clearing extensions are king tho
i used that shit a lot for my web dev classes
fading flower
hm
vocal shard
CCleaner just said i could save 58 gb
wet sluice
Protip: Hold down the refresh button with dev tool open.
vocal shard
I found random games i never played that are over 50 gb
i expected way more than 58 tbh
snow wadi
Also do you only have that one SSD for storage?
vocal shard
also dude
gilded helm
@wet sluice Dev tool? You mean Shift + I?
vocal shard
Yeah .
is your "download" folder full too ?
wait lemme check
if you have useless stuff there just remove stuff
snow wadi
You need to invest in another storage device.
vocal shard
And properly delete files that you don't use at all
snow wadi
So you don't dump all of heaven and hell on the same SSD.
wet sluice
Yes, or F12
vocal shard
I should really get a hard drive huh
wet sluice
Hold the refresh and pull down with it open
snow wadi
Seeing that you managed to have 400mb left? Yes I believe so xD
wet sluice
Single page clearing
wet sluice
Just built-in to chrome
snow wadi
You should leave the SSD that has windows on it for minimal apps and storage but not as everything else as well.
gilded helm
I like having the devtools on the side though
of the page I'm on
so it's easier to use the extension
fuck responsive design
minor flame
Delete previous win file after an update
wet sluice
Hmm, but isn't the refresh button is always there? Do you mean an extension to the dev tools?
vocal shard
Thanks guys im at 600 gb right now (:
snow wadi
Also I think it might be a good idea to move this to #user-support-old now, since this is now going way off track xD
gilded helm
Just a chrome extension Aria
gilded helm
the refresh button is there but your browser gets smaller
which can be annoying when you want to work with responsive design
which is like the only time when you actually clear cache for that shit
hot gale
snow wadi
Have you had this issue before?
vocal shard
Yes months ago too
snow wadi
Hmm tried clearing your Cache ingame already?
snow wadi
What about your safety settings?
vocal shard
none
fading flower
funny you mention safety settings
to survive sundays i now crank up my safety to the max
avatar show rate is medium
and only friends and people who have show avatar are seen
so its now a sea of grey robots but at least i get stable framerate now
twin fractal
yeah it be like that
fading flower
but now i dont crash every 20-30 mins
twin fractal
hopefully I can have a stronger PC by May

also how does the open beta role work?
are there like specific beta builds you can take to get it?
or is it if you have used the beta a bit bewm
vocal shard
rough pulsar
Head on down to the open beta channel and read it, you get the role and then you'll get notified of open beta builds & important info and instructions on access to the open beta.
faint skiff
Turning off custom animations stops 99.9% of badness. Disabling Very Poor avatars results in a world of robots these days π¦
rough pulsar
The perf blocker would be much more useful with an option to filter with it being checked against the rest state of the avatar. So even if someone has a few disabled objects that otherwise would mark it as very poor, with them not active they're not very poor right now so shouldn't be blocked.
vocal shard
disabling animations will also sadly remove all expressions and cute quirks like that
rough pulsar
I run with animations off and it makes public instances bearable since there isn't ridiculous amounts of unfunny memey bullshit flying around 24/7
vocal shard
indigo fern
i play with everything on and there arent too many memey bullshit anymore regardless
devout berry
Depends who you bump into.
covert blade
I usually have safety off and it is usually fine
Then again, I pretty much only join on friends
wet sluice
Yea, I leave safety off unless it's pub hopping time
vocal shard
it's always off for me
I prefer to choose people that I want to block, there aren't that many usually
frosty veldt
Nice part of the saftey settings is it doesn't hide everything. Grey robots still arnt scaled properly with the avatar
devout berry
Last time I played, there was user with avatar, that got songs in it and visualizations for them. And these visualizations were full of particles screen shaking, blinking and dimming. It annoyed me and was kinda making the game not navigable. Had to use safe mode.
covert blade
But I guess I'm mostly lucky that I don't run into too many people having stupid stuff going on that forces me to use it
That's something I honestly hate, same with the loading avatar
I dunno where to look while they load in, and it can take a while for avatars to load
wet sluice
That really depends on your hardware and what you've got running in the bg
devout berry
When you have covered screen in shaders and particles, it is kinda hard to do anything.
rigid crescent
Animations off for non friends is typically the best though
covert blade
Until you meet that one person that has a spawn in screen space shader that won't go away because you turned off animations
Aka, the type of person I will block when I find out who it is
wet sluice
When all it takes is one monster to avatar to bring you to "unable to use the UI to hide people" state, just hiding them doesn't work
covert blade
Then ya hide all the avatars via safety settings, select him, manually hide, show everyone again
vocal shard
if you drop below 20 fps, you also cannot aim at people anymore
vocal shard
the player capsule just breaks
covert blade
Beef up your PC or use perf settings
gilded helm
y'all dont use safety?
devout berry
I think that a helpful function would be, that when you trigger safe mode, it would dump users in room into a txt file and mark those doing any animation at the moment.
rigid crescent
Seems useles
covert blade
Me not but it's usually fine in the instances I am in
I don't go to public Pugs btw
covert blade
xD
covert blade
But sometimes that is something I accept if it helps getting my frames up
gilded helm
i only have avatars on for known and trusted users
devout berry
Usually when this type of animation starts, no one is able to do anything. So it would mostly catch just the offender.
indigo fern
just leave everything on π²
gilded helm
I'll do that when I feel like having 20 fps
rigid crescent
You're absolutely wrong about that.
covert blade
Ranks =/= Performance
devout berry
VR shortcuts?
rigid crescent
It's catch anyone who is doing any animation
gilded helm
Takes away a lot of people though
covert blade
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
gilded helm
is what I hinted at
devout berry
I meant emote animations.
covert blade
If the room is full of trusted it won't do anything
rigid crescent
Including pointing smiling
gilded helm
