Oh! I would def recommend any vive headsets
maybe not cosmos though
The Quest 2 is cool and all but some general issues around it so far
ok I'm back, and the problem got worse
Any vive except the cosmos yea. If your wallet is big enough, get the valve index tho
Budget friendly? Quest 2. Got some cash? Valve index
I'll wait till your all ready though
i have the original vive headset atm and its nice and all, but the problem is that you have really bad screen door effect
It can't be the amount of users online at all... 21501 is like the normal amount of people online.
Honestly boutta throw my headset cause I cant get on vr
Last night was like 32000
I had no issues logging in today? aha
Literally I have tried for 3 hours, and I woke up with the same issues
Nah 34k
But rn its like 21k
So I dont know why its still not letting me on
i think vrchat just has a bunch of bugs that they have to fix since that new update came out
Well, time to see how expensive the valve index is. Thanks for the help btw! :3
But would this cause people to not get on?
then I reccommend you to upgrade to the valve index. If you're fine with using the vive controllers, then keep them, but the valve index controllers are pretty good aswell. Since you have the vive, you can just get the headset or the headset + controllers set since the vive you have already has basestations which the index uses aswell
Hello.
Remember a lot of children got Quests for christmas, so the servers are probably overloaded with the little tikes.
just go to worlds that aren't quest compatible and you'll be fine
But what about the people with quests who cant get on.. ;-;
I would if some of my friends in my group didnt have quests lol
I literally have tried for a day to get on lol
I do have the index controllers and theyre nice. ive been wanting to upgrade my vr headset for a bit but its just a lot of money 😞
I was told to wait till the morning. And still having same issues
Normally if the kid isnt being too loud or annoying, I just ignore them still. They'll all just trying to be like their favorite youtuber.
It is definitely worth it tho. The resolution is much higher than on the vive, there's little to no screendoor effect, you also get a higher FOV and the audio is really good aswell
Or just trying to be funny. Like turning into that wine avatar and going " haha look im drunk"
Surprisingly half the kids havent been banned
Alrighty I'm back. Sorry to interrupt but my bug has sorta broken a couple of my Avatars.
aghh i can dream ❤️
wdym?
Yall lucky you can even get on
Ok so basically
I tried un-faving some of my other avatars to see if that's my problem
oh no
And then what happened was it glitched out, the avatars went to 0/25
Then it went back to normal at 15/25
what the hell?? lmao
i think you probably just shouldnt mess with it for a few days
Could someone help or give some ideas? Im getting a bit pissy with the fact I cannot even get on, like it freezes on loading
Try reinstalling
It does infinite loading for awhile then it freezes after loading
did you try reinstalling ?
I did.
Actually I'ma try reinstalling my game, that might fix it
@thorny lichen Big odds the problems are directly related to VRC having server problems, you can send in a ticket but waiting should solve it
im stuck on oak im not really sure what to do
Are there any adult servers?
I mean I can try again. :/
But kinda annoying since I havent been able to get on for the past 17 hours
Because any map can be public, theres no such thing as "adult" servers. You can go into a strip club boobie map and find a child there 🤷♂️
Reinstalled it, still having infinite loading then freezing.
Ahh
When I try an click on a new avatar it just scrolls and won’t let me select please help!
Cant really help you there. Havent even been able to get on.
How r u all?
Good you
I feel pretty good, had a really good morning
Good
Pls add the italy channel to international
Italian huh 
Gonna slam my head against a wall
Make sure your horn arent facing towards the wall bro
If they poke into it, I cant help you there
Gotta social distance ;)
Lmao
Upvote this request to add italian
https://feedback.vrchat.com/feature-requests/p/italian-channel-on-discord
Oak lmao
Im not happy man
Just wait until its around 1a.m est
I- waited till morning like Rin said
That's when a lot are off
Thats.. 12 hours from now..
B- All my friends are off then
LMAO I literally am so bored right now
Im still monching on goldfish
Dude... just go look at a mirror lmao
That's the best ur gonna get
I'll stare into a mirror because I know for sure as hell that I wont be able to get on but when I do, it's all I can do
Dude Im like the only one who cant log on still;-;
Dont worry you arent alone
I believe that you can do it, pray to the devs, give them your money and all shall be forgiven
but for real though, I'm also having problems still
Yo anybody know where I can get a jump scare skin?
.-.
hi again
it tells me I'm not authorized
Pog.-.
!online
There are 22595 users in VRChat currently
Hh..
is it really necessary to do the feedback?
Yes.
@barren heron My issue is though, it gets stuck on loading, then finally gets past it and once I press go or start tutorial because I reinstalled it, it literally will sit there and not be 360 anymore and then the screen turns black a minute later
Right?
it tells me i am not authorized to use canny. what does that mean?
Do you have a VRC account?
I'm gonna take that as a no then.
It's easier to make the account on the site.
I mean, yeah.
But I think they need to log out first
Well, not in that order
But still in general
I have already created an account on the site
log in with your VRChat account, into the Canny website
there should be a "Log In" button near the top-right of the page
Same error
Welp
Are you logged into the account on the site?
Yes
Social menu still broken and getting timed out all the time.. They need to fix their game or something.
i dont have timeout problems nor social menu problems, so i assume its on your end
If you're on Quest, it's due to the Oculus servers having a fit.
Servers are a bit touchy also, but also most servers problems are related to your ISP
They often have bad networking for things that are not close to your location
Keep in mind, the game is free and there are a lot of quest users joining now
We're at around peak Halloween users lol
it was at like 30k users today at 2am european time
hinico
Heck.
hirin
Hmmm
hiartemus
hellozuvali
any ideas why when i lay down on my side ( FBT ) my chest area is always angled high instead of being more natural down?
Because full body tracking isn't perfect
how do i make the game fullscreen when playing without vr goggles
sweet thanks
Hey can I play Skyrim full VR on the quest 2? I'm ok with paying for virtual desktop I just want to play skyrim wirelessly
do you know how to fix mirrors also they are just a white screen for some reason
@normal saddle that's a question for a non vrchat related channel
But with Virtual Desktop any PC VR game works.
i cant find anything in the settings about mirrors
Ok thanks and sowwie
nvm about the mirros restarting the game fixed it
what ever happened to notifications avatar world :(
What?
i got my first main avatar on it and its gone now ;(((
maybe it got privated
damn rip
who wanna whach stuff w me
Anybody know how to get the big dragon avatar
What "big dragon avatar"?
probably one of those big dragons people were using in black cat that I had to keep hiding avatar cus they are annoying
Anybody know a world with Pokémon avatars
Go to your worlds Menu in the game, click the search bar, type Pokemon. I am sure you'll find plenty
Nope I tried it but weird stuff popped up
Like muscle village and drinking game
Nothing about avatars
I know a few of the nanachi avatar worlds have pokemon themed nanachi avatars if ur into those
Avatar worlds is where you get avatars, btw.
It may not say specifically "avatars" but usually they're found there.
is anybody there rn?
Maybe.
ok
Is it weird that I want to be cuddled by a giant woman in vrchat?
Lol@lofty oar
I know. I'm weird. I just love being tiny. It's a cool experience.
dude no judgement
No It s okay 
Sadly I only use Quest 2. I'm gonna try to save money until my birthday and build a pc.
How is that sad?
The quest 2 is great
:0
Yeah but most avatars are blocked.
Yea but you get used to it
My laptop is too low to play vrchat. Also it's kinda annoying to be constantly harrassed by 13 year olds. But you can block them.
Trust me its best to see most avatars turned off anyways. I'm desktop user and I mostly only show like Trusted User or Friends..
To many risky avatars in public worlds sometimes.
I'm new to vrchat, any tips to have more fun?
Depends of you're a furry or a weeb. I'm a furry. So I only know furry things about vrchat.
*if
weeb
but I just meant like any way to start more conversations and have more fun overall
Hey
Anyone wanna talk about how when you accept the rules you have to press a button that says submit
Yep. I'm the wrong person to ask. Just keep hopping into popular worlds and see if you can find people and avatars you like. And asking people on here or amino to join is a good way to make friends fast.
any canadians?
I wish
Lol basically^. The only time i've really talked is when someone asked me how to do something LMAO
ok
Hell yea mate
cool
Sadly it's hard to find girls who are over 18.
who’s over 18 here?
Lmao, it's easy. I put on a female avatar, say I'm a girl, and say I'm 23
I'm 24
23
18
over 20
Lol
so ur not actually 23?
No, this is VRChat. The palace of lies
im 40
ew
98
C'mon Rin. No you're not
yea i am
68.99
69
nice

im 10 yr old girl someone call the fbi
😆😆😆😆

Anyone got an adivice on what to do in VRchat? I just started trying out VR and just got VRChat since my friends said it was worth it.
yeah dont simp
I have a hard time balancing when I'm moving in a server with my joystick, let alone trying to simp.

Yeah, simping is my job
simping in VRChat
How can you simp in this game?
ok another advice is get a good computer
Just play among us and beat on people
what does that mean?
Use your words to bully people, but pick your targets wisely because otherwise you might make people feel bad or get kicked
hi
Im banning you from my world 😩
Oh my-
Is there a way to help you balance better in VR chat? Like, I have a hard time standing still when I'm only moving with my joystick and not my legs since I don't have full body screening.
youll get used to it
Or do what I do: sit down.
lay down~
maybe it depends on what avatar to have on
where do i go to ask help about getting avatars i just got the game today
Search through avatar worlds.
NO! I tried that and barfed on myself when spinning
And it was on the carpet aswell.
i did but didnt see anything i ever liked

Guessing you're a Questie?
what are you looking for?
Many doors edboy
small avatars or an animal avatar
Any specifics?
nope
yoko has a world with smaller avatars
normal animals are rare, like really rare
anthro or feral animals is fine to me lol
Why is there like such a thing with anime half girls-half animal avatars?
Quest or PCVR/desktop?
i dont own a vr headset im broke😔
Soooo. Desktop then.
yes
There's a shit-ton of furry avatar worlds.
because kemono girls are cute
do you know any good ones
It depends on what you're looking for.
Is VRchat a game meant for like Furries and Anime Weebs? I found so many and this is my 1st day on this game.

no, but many people like having cat/wolf/fox ears and MMD models are easy to modify
most public avatars are from like 5 different MMD models
True
Also known as "kitbashing".
ever just have VRChat casually crash by just standing around in a lobby, AFK as well?
like really idk what happened I just came back from doing irl things to my VR chat crashing
same
Servers are dying.
✅
ah makes sense
even tho I use a MMD Base, I put effort in to it :/
Wut.
I really like the base I got, so meh
i wanna see more variations on the Ukon base tbh
well, I optimize it and try to make it look good and fitting
do yall have any suggestions for animal avatar worlds
Kitbashing is REALLY fun, however I'd (imo) like to make models from 100% scratch
it helps with the learning process of modeling different things.
:0
any idea how to prevent getting disconnected from worlds?
!online
There are 25860 users in VRChat currently
The servers are pretty crowded atm
!online
There are 26112 users in VRChat currently
There ain't much you can do.
is that how many in the game or in this channel?
Game.
the bot shows the players ingame
25,000 players in a metaverse style game is hard on the servers. Some players see 10GB of assets an hour. that's many terabytes an hour
25k+ is much more than we used to get.
Up until a couple months ago, we never passed 19k for any period of time
25,000 players in a normal MMO is nothing because the game is all of the assets downloaded
about 20 hours ago there were around 30k online
Yeah this Christmas saw a huge boom
so if its less than 20k will i be able to stay on properly?
25k users shouldn't cause players to disconnect the whole time
The team likely has to contact their server provider and work a deal for a higher limit and more bandwidth? IDK, I know nothing about that
25,000 players viewing 100MB avatars and 200MB worlds...that's A LOT of traffic
Pre-covid numbers were around 15k
I remember System saying the server rentals were expensive. 
I would love to see the traffic graph metrics of the whole infrastructure
it's more the bandwidth that he mentioned
Yeah, that.
and some petabyte of worlds and avatars, but that was 2018
a 10Gbps line is only 4.5 terabytes per hour. I bet vrchat has multiple and it's still chugging
Wait I have a question, I'm on oculus and nothing is loading, its just a blank teal screen with particles, the backround of the loading screen
and that is only for the bulkstorage
Wait that wasn't a question
don't forget the API stuff, and the databases
That's the loading background.
I know but it's been there for around an hour and nothing is showing
you probably have trouble signing in
It's before signing in
Like after the vrchat logo is loading but before the sign in
well... than you probably have trouble contacting the servers to sign in
Oh, it also usually like.. the screen pops out? And its like the screen is a square, its still the loading background but everything else is black so theres just a recentangle screen and then everything else is black
@opaque stump Besides reinstalling VRChat, there's not much you can do - it's probably just the servers
I don't know if Oculus servers being down would affect Quest headsets though
it'd definitely affect the datamining but
I can see that there is probably about 1% package loss
I've tried that many times but I'll try again
ok so the log in screen showed up, i put my user and pass in and all and it loaded but then it sent me back to the log in screen
wait lemme try something
Just over the past 3 hours we've gotten an extra 4k people on, number's probably gonna jump up to 27k soonish™
ok so im in, but now its showing me a blank box that has that yellow early access sign next to it..
i dont know if its the world list or
will i get in trouble for posting a naked avatar?
they're against TOS, yes
i got this really juicy picture lmao

On oculus quest 2 here, anyone know where I can find a male avatar with super long hair? Tried and failed with creating my own as I’m just straight up bad with things like that. I’m assuming I’m out of luck finding one made by someone else?
"Super long hair" is a bit of a vague description.
You’re right, sorry lol Um maybe the term “metal head” is a better description? Just looking for something that more resembles myself but if I just have to suck it up a cactus then so be it
so uh
I can't change my avatar
when I try to select one it just moves the menu slightly
so I can't click on anything
sorry if this is a dumb question lol, but have you restarted the game?
clearing cache/verifying game files in Steam/reinstalling could help too if that fails
Do you mean hair that's down to the mid back or ankles?
Mid back which is about my irl hair length
Uh
Give me a min to think, I know a few avatars like that but I dont know the worlds to get them in
So bare with me for a moment
Sick, thank you!!
I will say this though, no promises on me finding it out
Nah, sorry dude, I know a few friends that have avatars like that but they arent public
Hey all good I appreciate you checking for me
np dude
anyone know why quest avatars won't load? - I went to an avatar room with a friend to get some quest compatible avatars but we can see ourselves in the mirror but to each other we are green things.
Green means incompatible.
such a bitch that i keep getting disconnected
strange these are quest avis ... but incompatible in what way?
we can see ourselves individually in th emirror
Are you sure they're Quest-compatible?
Does anyone know avatar world where the avatars have robot arms and is quest compatible
One of the don worlds?
Look for the colored Venn diagram on the top right of the image.
does anyone know if there are any problems with Authenticator right now because a friend of my they cant log in to the site
Explain?
that the codes are not working
This is why I use Authy.
Does anyone know how to export an 2.0 SDK avatar to be compatible on both quest and PC without having to create separate uploads?
you need to upload it twice
But how do people make those avatars that are visible on both quest AND PC in the same slot? Using the same method?
you use the same blueprint ID for both, the PC and Quest avatar
but I guess for anything further you should go to #avatar-quest
I understand, thank you!
In a social game, anything is possible.
ahahha
Just as a FYI, you can record and report these people (or make a screencap and send that in)
Using the ingame report system can also work, but its best to send lose msg in #moderation-reports

There are 26649 users in VRChat currently
not long ago i seen this dude had this really inappropriate avatar
If you're that offended by it, maybe VRC isn't the game for you. 
got a picture of the avatar but im afraid if i post i’ll get in trouble
hello
hello there
im new here and new to like vrchat modeling
vrchat modeling? never heard of it
model editing i mean
cause it's actually my first time using unity and blender so im like looking at the basics at the main tutorials
hope my pc doesn't crash
idk the circumstances but i keep disconnecting for no reason so good luck
yeah
Your PC price has nothing to do with how far away you are from the VRChat servers or the quality of your Internet connection
well i wanna play without getting disconnected but i guess thats impossible right now
:0
:0
no matter how fast your internet is, you still have a distance to the servers which increases the ping. If you live right next to the servers, your ping will be really small. If you live on the opposite side of the earth to the servers your ping will be really high
see ya godzilla
i play on 20 😎
what does that even mean
depends on how far you are from where the servers are located
It's kinda insane how spoiled people are and how they complain about sub200ms ping
Man I used to play fps games where it was normal to have around 200 on the free servers :c
it means, ping is the time it takes for data to go from the servers to your pc and vise versa
idk hacking is bad
i used to play on like 150 constant and sometimes itd spike up to 15k LOL
I always have like 150-200 ping on most online games because for some reason I always connect to american servers. Either europe servers are dead or full idk
im so glad ive had good internet for a while it used to be frustrating lol
My internet used to die each night from 1pm to 6pm lmao
Always fun when you got weekends or vacations
Took us threatening to move providers for it to magically get fixed
I've had 80k ping just when using mobile data 👀
happens when it can't keep up with the avatar downloading
one time i was playing league way back and i got up to 300k ping it was crazy
packet loss caused these
Never heard of "ao oni".
you never heard of that rpg maker horror game?

i wonder what the state is gonna be like on quest... im imagining even more kid filled than usual..
The game even hit like 30K last night/morning
Hey anyone wanna play vr with me I have the oculus quest 2
With around 10K users on the oculus platform even
yeah, ngl I've been facing them a lot
ive been dealing with them even more since ive recently switched from mainly desktop to mainly quest since i got bored
API response time go brrr
if i have vrchat on the quest, can i play with people on pc?
there’s a lot more little kids :///
im pretty sure you can
okay
Standalone, no. Tethered to your PC, yes.
If anyone know a place for Pokémon skins tell me or if I can clone someone’s
Searching didn't help?
No
You mentioned the "muscle village" world, they have avatars there.
yes but
?>
I want normal Pokémon avatars not muscle ones
Desktop/PCVR or Quest?
Quest
Yeeeeah, Quest is a lot more limited.
how?
That channel might help you.
Has anyone reached out to VRChat in regards to the friends list/favorite avatars bug?
I'm sure many have, but there's not much that can be done till a new build is pushed out.
just wait it out, it should fix itself
!online
There are 27119 users in VRChat currently
any 1 know why it keeps saying "cutsomauthfailed" when i try loading vrchat
yea, having same issues
aight I thought i got banned
same, cant log in
i havent played the game in so long I thought i had a real issue with hackers
but thank god others have the same thing and it isnt just me
wait
I figured it out
you ahve to validate the game files integrity
Does anybody have any Pokémon skins on vr chat I can clone
Do what I've suggested over and over. 
it doesn’t work
What doesn't work?
Searching it up
What'd you search?
is anyone having loading problems ? i cleared my cache and nothing but my home world loads
Servers are overloaded still.
28k pog
no, not pog. it's a bunch more kids who got Christmas headsets and shouldn't even be playing because it breaks TOS
Soon, they'll become frustrated at the limitations and probably find another VR game to play.
sorry? lol
i'm just frustrated because the new kids are straining the servers to the point that I can't even play
nothing against you, mate
What do you expect? 
better servers
Hello
Servers cost money.
So it is the servers that are having issues ?
Wait so the lags and crashes and glitches
are not coming from my pc ?!
I'm actually surprised I thought it was me
crashes and glitches, idk. But if you keep getting "timed out" or disconnected, that's the server
Yeah I get disconnected
Honestly I thought my internet was just trash smh
Loading takes time
I mean it's great that we have newcomers and all
But it's awkward that the game cannot handle it
It'll fade off after a while, though I def can't say how much it'll fade lol
^ it's embarrassing in my opinion, but the devs don't seem to want to acknowledge that the servers need upgrading
I mean maybe the vrc+ is there to get more funds for the server
you'd be surprised about how expensive servers are
I think they talked about getting new servers in general yesterday, actually
when was this?
When was what
oh yesterday?
Fuzz give the game 1~2 weeks and it'll cool off
people play vrchat cause it's free
when they get new games like Beat Saber and such they'll go away
I'm finally on break and have time to hang with friends, and this mess happens. It's frustrating.
I know but the devs are trying their best
I don't want to wait weeks
None of us wants to fuzz
Are they? They don't really communicate with us well.
Even if they don't if they were really leaving the game like a dying dog on the streets we'd see it
The last time they posted in server-status was on the 9th.
I know right
the issues have been going since Christmas Eve for me
it's not that hard to acknowledge it
Yeah it's not something they didn't acknowledge
#vrchat-general-2 message around here
They know but they can't really do much
Purchasing a bunch of new servers might not be a great idea anyway, considering this christmas wave will most likely wean off, leaving them with a bunch of underutilized servers
complete speculation on my part obvs, but if this trend of 20k+ daily users keeps up there'll likely be an announcement concerning it
it's happened before, even without the christmas crowd
How long it the founders thing for VRC+ up for? I keep staring at the $9.99 +3 months
3 days remaining I think? It should say on the page
founders thing? what's that
If you get VRChat+ rn, you'll get an Early Access badge instead of the normal one, alongside an extra free month for the 10 dollar tier and an extra three for the 100
aka vrcat badge lmao
right- I was confused.. I do have VRC+
they make ranks less visible but slap "I'm able to afford this" badges on people
i don't get it
but it's something shiny i can only get for the next 3 days 😮
where can i get some cool animae skins
yeah
i'd say search for an anime name in the search
like my hero academia
Can i buy VRC+ through steam at all?
Yeah, VRC+ is actually bought through your steam wallet
ah thanks, trying to find through the steam store
You need to click the link from within the game, but the payment comes out of steam
has anyone else been sent to a friends only world while trying to join a public one?
hey does anyone wanna hangout in vrchat
sure
or does anyone wanna play valorant
any one got good avatars
thanks for the help, that worked.
hey is making a vrchat world and variety of avatars good practice for 3D graphical design
like industry-level skills?
I mean, we all gotta start from somewhere-
any good avatars
Many. You just gotta know what you're looking for.
is there any good worlds i can chill on
One last question about VRC+. I login via VRC not steam ( i launch through steam though ), when i make the purchase will it know to apply it to the correct account?
Yyyyyes?
im looking for some chill avatars
Just hop around avatar worlds like everyone else
I still have to find one
that isn't a loli or a furry or an emo
Or a monkey I have 4 of those alredy
9 people off 30k

im looking for a VrChat girlfriend , anyone up?, gotta be 16+
yup
That's Bathhouse Utopia - The Tranquil Sanctuary (BUTTS), which also exists as part of What A Legend.
🤷♂️ bought a 3rd one, for spare parts really
anyone having issues rn
Doesn't really seem like it. Usually if there's server issues this discord lights up like a house on fire.
are the servers seriously still slugging?
Seems so.
ugh
Lots of new Questies.
Yeah it's cool to see all people come together on vr chat
Few quests world i was in was full of tiny children 🤔 ugh well not that i go to quest worlds often
Hi everyone! I came here to ask if anyone would like to play werewolf my friend Is hosting and we need some people! Please dm me your vrc user so i can invite you once it is happening😁
hopefully the new questies will get bored and leave in a week or so
imo, the server will be struggling a lot if they haven't launch VRC+ 👀
Almost forgot to include the world is pc only

I've been out of VRChat up until about a month ago. Don't mind the Quest kids, but clears throat there are some exceptions. lol
Aaaand I DC'd. ISP is being a dingle right now.
Dang, its crazy seeing how much Vrc has grown
And the overnight success of the Quest 2.
Pandemic.
vr is so much better than i imagined ngl
Mhmm
but its amazing
i find it's really hard to explain how amazing it is, especially in full body tracking. the immersion is amazing 😄
I started playing echo vr recently and i took my headset off and tried to fling myself the immersion is mad
I've been jealous of full body tracking users. Hopefully if/when things go better next year, I'll have a set of three to use. lol
The only down side is the vive trackers themselves, i really hope the technology takes off so instead of base stations we can just use cameras with no physical trackers
like imagine the kinect technology but from multiple angles
I hope now vr exploded in popularity that more companies will try get in the scene and make vr more immersive
If the quest cameras could do it with your hands. They should do it with the rest of the body.
and more games that aren't just tech demos plz
the thing is, steamvr tracking with the lighthouses is so much easier to compute
I want vr to become sao immersion levels without the death
If you want more companies to get into the VR scene and make cool stuff stop buying Facebook devices
the trackers themselfs compute it themselfs and just send the translate and rotational position to the PC
in terms of computation I'm hoping for breakthroughs in neural networks tbh 😛
I had to get a quest two cause i cant have long wires going across my room
it's just simple arithmetic calculations
Agree 100%
"simple"
I mean, yeah but also not really.
that's basically the whale of solutions, that takes quite a lot of ressources
and don't forget that it's not only cheaper to compute, but also way more accurate, faster updating and doesn't have that much problems with occlusion
If we made neural networks that knowledge on how it works could transfer over into making vr super immersive like going to anther world immersive

cheaper to compute
Yep
way more accurate
Generally yes
faster updating
Compared to the other authoritive tracking systems, sort of. Most mix an authoritive system that updates slowly (LH runs around 60hz) but provides very reliable positional data, and a very fast updating system (IMU) that is prone to drift, but gets corrected periodically.
well, I didn't took IMU's in to account, because they are also present in other devices, not just steamvr ones
Any 1 got the baby yoda avatar in the pod
There are companies working on a brain computer interface (BCI) that uses a camera to take in the external environment and send it to small computer where it then pulses patterns of electrodes to neurons in the brain. The person is then able to visualize whatever the camera sees. This would be very helpful for blind/ visually impaired patients. However, I can only imagine the application for Vr
That I could clone
bottom line is: steamvr tracking (or lighthouse tracking) is superior to camera based ones. And it will be for probably quite a while if not ever.
i guess in that case, i can only hope for smaller vive trackers 😄
if it makes a difference for the users... well, that's up to the users of course
oh and some kind of wireless charging tech so i don't need to plug in when done, just place on a pad
that's kinda hard to achieve, because they need the sensors to be spread out a bit, to get enough timedelay. Smaller would only be possible if they would increase the rotation in the basestations and the updaterate of the sensors (and the clockspeed of the microprocessor)
can i ask questions here? just curious
Well you just did, so feel free to ask another
and the more they are spread out, the better and more precise it will be
Well, i have this little problem that most people don't see (or just dont care) my avatar...is there any way to see if some people can't see it?
that's why the tracking of the headset itself is better than the controllers or trackers, for example
If you feel like playing around a bit, the current vive trackers can be powered (dunno about charged though) from the pogo pins on the bottom, so you could try attaching a wireless charging to that.
ah okey, i'll have a look on amazon quickly
they can be charged and powered by the pogo pins, just apply 5V DC at Pin 3
forgot which pin is GND tho...
It's all in the developer doc for them so it's fairly easy to figure out.
yeah, you can just download the datasheet for it
My other solution was just to buy a bunch of USB extenders, wrap them with cable binders and just wear the cables to have wired play at all times 😛
I initially wanted to create my own version of the trackstrap+ where I use them, but I decided to just get additional 3 trackers ;)
Or just get some small batteries and plug the trackers into those. It's what I did and my trackers have never run out since.
Yeah currently using trackstrap+ as well, very nice and comfortable
I use rubberbands
since I have trackers (about 6 months) I only had one which did wear out ;)
( misread as rubberhands ), nice solution with your 6 trackers, since can just trade out when 3 run out 😄
way cheaper, still very comfortable, and lighter
jup, and it only takes like 30s to do so
disadvantage of the straps is the vive trackers are screwed on
but I wish they would have made the trackers slightly bigger (like 3-4mm) and would fit a bigger battery, that could hold up to 6-8h
and I wish they wouldn't have used HV lithium batteries (they use them in all controllers and trackers)
i wish you only needed one dongle 😛
well, I only need 3
or connect via wifi
no, because of latency
ahhh true
A usb hub works just fine
oh also, everything needs to be tracked and represented in VR. I want my controllers, keyboard, mouse etc all visible in VR
my quest runs better than my gaming laptop
im probably going to discard it and keep all the interesting parts
to make an actual pc
Yeah got a USB hub, i did see online some people plugging hubs into the front of their indexes but too scared with wobble
Damn there's a VRchat avatar I really like but it's only compatable with pc and not quest that sucks
the only thing you can take from that would be the SSD (and RAM, with some specific adapters...)
yeah but still saving like 50$
true, but you could also just use the laptop for other purposes
as a normal PC/Laptop, you could use it for years
way more ecologically and stuff
yea
Just ask.
artemus is intimidating
How so?
i already did before
Explain "most people".
they say "i wish i could see your avatar"
i just want to know if there is a way of seeing if someone can or cant see my avatar
If they're on Quest and you're using a PC-only avatar, they can't see it without tethering to a PC.
Go to Avatars and look at the Venn diagram on the avatar picture.
the 2 circles?
Yes.
blue is for pc
Yes.
the green one is for VR?
Green is Quest.
they are both on
like colored
still people cant see it...or they just ignore it
i am very confused...
They have safety settings on prob
^
i mean
they can see everyone else
but just not me
cuz they only say that to me, everytime
I mean, what's your rank compared to theirs?
If you're a visitor, I'll be honest, I dont show avatars from user and below because often times its troll avatars
i mean my avatar is really important....so people dont mis-gender me...which happens and i hate explaining it to every person i meet
Ah, well, as I said, if some people can see you and others cannot, the people who cant see you either turned off your avatar or have safety settings on
Or your avatar is too big for them to load
Nothing i can do i guess...
Which people can change what is viewed depending on how many mb the avatar is
Yeah, not much you can do tbh
how can i see how big it is?
to be honest, that is not really important, at least not for me. When I talk to a person, I talk to the person, not their gender.
4MB is that a lot?
no
Oh god
well i always get male pronouns...because voice...soo having this avatar makes everything wayy easier...if people care or know what it stands for
they probably don't because a deeper voice means male for 99.9% of the population.
^
i am a walking trans-flag....
even then
Uhm
not literally a flag...
Heya
Does anyone know, anybody I can ask to make me a cross quest and pc avatar?
I would really love one ahhhh.
Yeah... that dont mean crap to people in vrchat
which really sucks...
A friend of mine is also trans, and it happens from time to time that I use male pronouns
Why not make one yourself?
Idk how too. 😦
you can't just rewire the brain of peoples
@keen nebula have you ever looked into voice training to develop a more feminine voice?
YouTube has tutorials.
if it's a friend you should remember that tho just imo
I'm so dumb though.
Well, it's a lot cheaper than having one commissioned.
i am already trying my best to sound feminine but as you all said...people just dont care
as I said, you can't just rewire brains.
I know it sounds harsh, but it's the truth.
and as mentioned before, I don't care about the gender (or sex) I'm talking to the person and their personality. And if gender is the thing which defines their personality... well, than I'm out ;)
A friend of mine has a voice deeper than mine, but she trained her voice by singing higher and higher until she developed a natural sounding female voice. It takes time, but you can shift your tone with practice.
i know...but that takes as you said, time
then put up with it until you can
well, I don't want to be called anorexic, but it happens all the time. I had to learn to live with that, that I'm just skinny.
people wont just stop thinking youre a guy if all they have to go off of is a masculine voice
All you can do is state your boundaries and it's up to others to respect them. There's no point in hanging around people who won't respect your boundaries.
yeah but they dont know anything about you outside of your voice
even with the voice of...arnold i am still a girl
so to them it might as well be
but that is all we know in VRChat
thats why i have this avatar
You can use modulation, many of my friends do that
well, probably more than 75% of male people use a female avatar in VRC
but not a trans flag colored one
yeah you cant go off of avatar at all
people usually assume that everyone in game is male
just because theres generally more men in games
or at least theyre louder
@keen nebula I have a trans friend with a deep voice but I treat her like a female regardless.
Yah I go by voice because so many men use female avatars
like you should
I have a friend who uses a voice changer. It gets her gendered properly even if it kind of sounds bad
but again, if you see someone with a trans-flag colored avatar you could at least think about the possibility of them being trans and at least ask
if you tell people that youre female then im sure plenty will start calling you by female pronouns but duh people will assume youre male
also not everyone knows the trans flag colours
not really, maybe it's like trans-week or what ever and they want to support that
I am wearing this avatar, so i dont have to...because i dont wanan go around screaming "I AM TRANS" to everybody
Yeah it's good to politely correct improper pronouns, but if they keep using the wrong ones after you tell them it bothers you, it turns into harassment
maybe just let them think youre a guy
I've met people wearing trans colored avatars who don't even realize what the colors mean tbh. They just likes the colors
if you befriend them you can tell them youre trans
are you serious?
...i have no words
I have quite a few trans friends who do that tbh. Don't tell people until they're like friends
But if that makes you dysphoric probably ... Don't do that
problem: you dont want to tell them youre trans because itd be annoying to say to everyone
solution: only tell the people that you think need to know
Long story short, don't give a shit unless you know them.
It'll save you a headache.
it still hurts...but w/e
thanks for the help with figuring out that stuff loads
The game has a huge amount of trans and lgbt people . Once you get into some groups it'll be easier
Well if they make you feel uncomfortable, just play as a mute until you're comfortable talking
in that case they probably will think he is male...
Not everyone is very understanding sadly, but there is a large trans community in VRC
"he"....
muscle memory
you dont know me
everyone calls everyone he, dont take it personally
yeah, because argument, from their perspective it's HE
well, making a drama out if it is counterproductive
"in that case they probably will think she is male..." Fixed it for you
Thank you
well, I corrected myself: #vrchat-general-2 message
you know, you have to think about the others and how they react, because they don't just magically react like you wish.
Yeah, it gets pretty frustrating when people don't respect the pronouns... It's a frequent trigger in the trans community. You can refer to anyone you're unsure of as they/them.
my first line about this problem was about being mis-gendered....and here you go

Bruh are you serious
Ive waited 30 hours to get on
This is just pissing me off at this point lol
but i dont wanna ride around on this topic any longer
Get the not quest oak
the thing is, if you pound that much on it, you make it a bigger thing than it is, which not only hurts you, but also annoys others.
Return it and get the real VR
Too late to return it man.
link cable
Link cable is sold out
Or that
you can just use the charger
Its too short
no longer ones?
guess youll have to stay pretty close to your pc then
Use your PC as a pillow
I wouldnt be able to put my headset on if I used the charger
Buy any 3.0 rated third party cable of okay quality if the Link cable is sold out.
it needs to be USB 3.0 ;)
USB 2.0 also works but... yeah, it "works" but at a much lower bitrate
I bought the last link cable on ebay
I tried another cable
It wasnt working either lol
hI
was it a USB-C to USB-C cable?
Okay i need some help
ok
just ask
^
I have at least 12,000 GBP saved up and I need to know what to spend them on

save it for worse times?
Buy a cow
put it in bank
or three
Sell the milk.
wait a bit
Give some of that to me!
profit
Get rich
Damn son
more money 🤯
Thank you all for the advise!!
The issue is
What
That I get stuck on a infinite loading screen
I dont think its my vr
Because it would’ve done it before and it only started doing it after the issues last night
what loading screen
For vrc?
yes
have you tried playing VRChat on PC, without a headset (just to see if you can actually connect to the servers)
maybe your ISP f***ed up their DNS servers
well, I guess you have other problems then
;-;....
Quick question about the subscription that I smoothbrained and forgot - if I buy it and cancel my sub, will the subscription still continue through the remaining two months?
wait... where do you live? in which country?
Does anyone want to play vr chat and hang out

VRCover is a popular option.
It seems comfortable and affordable, Thanks!

Ohohoh what happened to the Sao Synthesis?
My friend's game stops loading in the loading screen after a little bit, and he can't join any world in general. Is there a way to fix this
Servers are dying.
o__o
its been happening far before today
Hello
Guessing the dying servers are causing me to appear to not have VRC+?
Quite possibly.
What are some good worlds to play with friends on? Stuff like among us or something
Cuz im new to vrchat
There's an Among Us world.
Yeah ik, is there like racing or horror games or something
Sup
That would be hella fun
There's a lot of those, yeah.
