tts is always weird
From my quick google search heres what I found:
- Update your drivers (which you've already checked)
2.Connect your vr cable to your GPU's primary port. - Try the steamvr beta.
i cant do the 2nd one as i only have 1 gpu port on my pc
hdmi
ummm do ur vr connects with cable via hdmi or display port?
cause i think it should via dp
gpu model? vr headset?
rifts go through hdmi, quest with usb
Who has the puking nutter butter outfit thats rare if you do whats your name and let me join you and i can get it
u asked that yesterday aswell
hdmi
Just ask for that in #avatar-search-old
Rift is HDMI, Rift S and Index are Display Port, Quest 1 and 2 are USB-C
vives?
People are still buying Vive’s? They can do both HDMI or DisplayPort, but they old and blury
Hey y'all! Im super new to vrchat and 3d models/VR overall, i was wondering how I could upload my own avatars? I have the files in .fbx and in .obj format
Why does my game so often get stuck on 100% when loading into worlds?
what graphics card are you running?
970
do you have space in your drive? and whats your ping/ dowload speed
well I have only like 20gb left on my ssd and 40gb left on my HDD lol, so I often have to restart the game to delete the save data
my download speed be kinda bad doe
it honestly might be because of your gpu, youre running the bare minimum, that plus theres little toom on your drives so there isnt much space for the cache
then again take this with a grain of salt, im a noob lol
does vrchat also lag for yall but woorks perfectly fine for other game
For making model, the recommendation is Blender. For giving them features, shaders, and animations, and actually uploading them, it’s the Unity Game engine, version 2018.4.20.f1 along with the SDK files for unity you can download from VRChat.com once your account is old enough
got it, thank you Adeon!
known problem, only way to fix it temporary is to restart the game. i am in support since november because of this problem and we already try to track it down
and its not because of GPU
so i wanna stop being a weirdo that just feeds ducks alone all day, what are some good worlds to invade where i don't accidentally crash a friend group that forgot there's an invite setting
Just walk up and talk to people.
^^^
The worse that can happen is
how do I favorite a world im currently in? is that even a function? lol
menu -> worlds -> top is a row with your current world -> favourite
Thank you so much!
Idk why people recommend the black cat. Place is awful
I really like the comfy hideout!
im getting my oculus quest 2 in a month so now i can finally play vr chat
Nice
You can play it without vr! thats what im doing rn!
Okay stupid question, how do you move the favoriters row to the top in your worlds window because mines at the bottom row and i cant figure it out lol
That's what I use to do. Feels weird playing without a headset now
I don't think you can move it
I don’t think you can reorganize them yet. That whole menu is getting redone in an upcoming update
Ahhh okay, thank you so much!!
The devs have been teasing a UI update for a while.
well i dont have a pc or a laptop with windows
waiittt you can play vrchat or vr games in general without a pc or laptop??
yeah the quest 2 doesn’t need a PC since it has a mobile cpu built in.
It is just a phone
It can play VRChat but it’s a more stripped down version, but it does have cross play
Thats so cool! does it have like a harddrive to store games or would you need to buy one or a usb stick?
It has a built in harddrive.
its mobile storage as well, doesnt have like pc amounts of storage but still enough
wow ive learned more beinbg in this chat for 10 minutes that throught an hour of research lol
its android
Quest 2 is nice, the downside is it’s made by Facebook. So it needs a Facebook account to access the game store lol
It is just 2 phone screens with a phone behind it with oculus software
That is really not true Doneamax. O_o
they're removing oculus account usage in 2023 I think it was, so you need facebook for the normal rift soon too
a fairly powerful phone
There is no phone inside the quest headsets lol
CPU: Qualcomm® Snapdragon XR2 Platform
I meant phone as in its basically phone components
Yeah
2022 is when you have to have facebook
If you don’t already have an account you have to use a Facebook account already
You can’t make oculus account anymore
I despise facebook, I'll just save up for a vive because honestly I dont want to deal with that company
Vive is discontinued
The used market isnt
HTC is dead in consumer market
Don't get a Vive. It's old and outdated.
And I am very poor and willing to buy used stuff to save money
Decagear should come out soon for 450, im not 100% sure about it and how i feel about it, but its worth waiting for probably
Oh yeah forgot about them
are there events on this server?
im sure theres plenty of good vr options that would be wayyy better than a used vive
Well I currently have a rift CV1 I am a man of "outdated" stuff anyway
if the decagear is what they promise, its gonna shake up the VR market quite a bit and make the G2 obsolete
If you want to avoid Facebook, the good choices are Valve Index or HP Reverb G2. Getting a Vive is probably the worst choice you could make. It’s a (does math) 5 year old headset
I'm still very skeptical about the whole camera tracking stuff
its just a lack of tracking area
Quest Tracking was more accurate than lighthouse Tracking on Valve Index. Just less hand space. But far more reliable 
tracking on quest was horrible when i tried it
Ah yes there is a steam link to the HP, which then sends me to a store for school stuff which apparently has a reverb
reverb for school when and why
Quest downside is the tracking volume was small but as long as you were inside the volume it was perfect for me
hp reverb g2 doesn't have sensors so it can't go many gestures
inside out tracking is okay, it just messes up sometimes
inside out tracking dies when your hands go behind your back
Yeah the downside with the G2 controlers is they won’t match your hands in vr
And a lot of people just ignore that but in my opinion it’s really important for immersion
yeah
especially because you cant do certain gestures with the g2 controllers
i am pretty sure you can just use other controllers with the g2 though
Unless you have external cameras everywhere all vr headset tracking breaks when you put them behind your back regardless
touch controllers feel so natural in the hands and they line up with where my real hands are so they work fine in that regard
I don’t believe so
I mean 2 diagonally pointing sensors make a 360 enviroment for the rift
there's some tutorials on how to use valve index controllers with the hp reverb g2
yeah true that
i'm pretty sure you can just buy the controllers on their own though
yeah you can get both controllers for $279.00
oh thats actually ok lmao
Index controllers use external sensors and reverb uses inside out. That sounds very messy
it probably requires light house
Sort of defeats the point or a inside out headset if you still need external sensors
true, but you can also get basestation
although when you add two base stations it gets expensive
Plus lining up two tracking universes that are blind to each other, in my opinion, is a recipes for headache due to drift
I also find it weird when people use vive lighthouse next to oculus sensors, dont they interfere with eachother
if you get the hp reverb g2 (600 usd) and the valve index controllers (279 usd), along with two base stations (149 usd each) that goes up to 1,177 usd
more expensive then just you know
getting the valve index full kit
They don’t use the same color of IR light
I think my phone can see IR I should look sometime, I know it worked with the DK
wait can I use my phone as a sensor 🤔
it's more expensive then the valve index full kit, but if you want to go for it, go for it.
although i'd rather just go for the valve index itself.
Yeah you should just get the full index kit at that point
Index audio, and microphone, and field of view is far better than reverbs
Reverb has sharper resolution at the cost of seeing less of the world around you
As someone who has spent a lot of time in vr ... field of view is more valuable than resolution
this
the reason i dont wanna upgrade to anything other from the index HMD is the FOV, there isnt anything comparable on the market yet, and as long as there isnt anything i would not consider upgrading anytime soon
is tracking on the oculus rift s good since it doesnt have exterior sensors?
because im abt to drop 300 on it lol
Mine comes in today lol
dopeeee thats exciting!
Im hype its boutta be so cool
Im really excited to start making and exploring my own worlds.Im an architecture student so it would be really fun to make stuff for myself and having like full creative freedom
oh sweet ! im a premed student, are there any vr games that do with that or anatomy/physiology?
oh nice thats a hard major but im sure theres something out there
if you get vrchat plus does your trust go up to user?
If you are visitor it's going to go to new user. Anything past that doesn't guarantee a rank up
so how do you rank your trust up?
yall out here
im just cruisin through a cs degree where the gen eds are more stressful than the majors
you rank up by existing
cs breaks my brain that stuff is so sick
allegedly uploading content speeds the process
yes but you cant until you get user
and i just spent a few hours making myself an avatar.
being online. adding friends. talking. exploring worlds. uploading avatars/worlds. not being kicked/reported/muted/avatar hidden/blocked.
^ yes
adding friends
haha
i can't even stand around in midnight rooftop for 5 saeconds before going back home because i feel like a home invader
just be nice and sociable. share ur interests and join conversations. u will have friends in no time.
Anyone wanna play?
in work
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oof
Good luck^^
Unless you hang around toxic people, you can speed through the ranks quickly.
Took me, idk, 4 months for trusted, 15 avatars and a world helped significantly
please someone help
700+hours. uploaded around 20. no worlds
😢
Time in public world's is worth more than time in private worlds IIRC
@dull cipher what's up?
I have this avatar that used to be an MMD file, so I exported it to an FBX file and the skeleton is all in japanese
So I don't know what anything goes to
Ah, well
Learn Japanese first off
Easy
Seriously though, that's on the model maker.
How do I use cats plugin
get cats plugin for blender
BLENDER
Ew blender
install as a addon
But i've already fixed the mats for the model UGHHHHHH
import and fix nodel
it's got so many bones that I don't know where to put them tho
it auto translates the armature and fixes it
Like on the rig thing in unity
It’s decent. The main issue with Rift S is it has the worst microphone of any vr headset
Tracking on it is fine
That's why you use a separate head set instead of the built in audio
True, or get a headset that has good hardware built in, since you are paying for it
cats translates all japanese names of the rig. also fixes it for straightforward uploat througg unity to vrc
Can't do that afaik. At least on Quest the built in mic is forced
Rift S and Vive were discontinued for a reason. 😳
Mmh i can use a Headset on my Quest but it doesnt use a mic of it
How do I use it thought, like the cats plugin
Rift s isn't discontinued yet, but it's coming
Also, I'd rather use a rift than the RMA machine that is the Index
search for cats plugin on the interwebs. download it. get blender on steam. open it up. add a addon (cats plugin) it will install. import ur model from the cars plugin tab (top right) click on fix model. there
u also have eye tracking visemes and other stuff
that will make unity process easier
Idk why the would discontinue the rift s with out releasing an updated PC dependent HMD
Cause of Quest
Yes but I'd rather not have to Jerry rig a set up to use my PC
Afaik the virtual desktop eats frames
Less than Oculus Home afaik
Quest Link is the official teather and definitely not a jerry rig tho.
Can't use FBT with oculus home tho
oculus home is literally just a menu where you select what you wanna play
If I'm gonna have a wire sticking to my PC I'd rather it be dedicated
Nah i mean i heard that Oculus Home eats more performance than Virtual Desktop
yikes
The Quest 2 teathered is a completely normal PC VR headset.
And even better then the Rift S imo given the other benefits.
Since you would have to run Oculus Home if you want to use SteamVR with official Link, with Virtual Desktop you skip the requirement of having to run the Oculus Software while using SteamVR
u cant use it with steamvr home too
i should just flat out disable steamvr home
i literally only use it to select what game i want to play
This false
I dont know any headset that supports a external mic input. 
I was just told that a moment a go in here
I already disabled SteamVR Home. I just select my games with SteamVR Dashboard
idunno. thats actually a good idea
When used with the PC you can connect what ever you want to your PC
Oh you meant standalone? Sorry yeah standalone you might be out of luck. But connected to pc no problems
a thank you would be nice...
Or you can get an index which doesn't have a shit microphone
Sorry! I'm like scanning the web rn looking for it
Standalone there is nothing comparable...
(The quest 2 mic is quite okay too, so.)
gimme a sec
I have a friend that uses a quest and it won't let her select anything other than the built in mic
Quest 3 is coming this year (confirmed) and will almost certainly have a video in port (speculation)
quest 3's gonna be absolutely mental
Yeah Quests headphone jack doesnt have a microphone part. it's outgoing only.
i have cancer cuz of vrchat kids
Thank you! ❤️
Yes but then you get to spend 90% of your time RMAing your stuff when it brakes like twigs
THe quest mic isn't shit tho
since the rift s is display port can you use an hdmi to display port adapter?
No
Absolutly not
No adapter
Isn't it famous for becoming a pringles can?
If my built in mic breaks then rip though
The Rift S is famous for robo
To be fair they send you the replacement before you have to ship it out. So as long as it’s not totally broke you are fine. I did have to RMA both of my controllers as they were launch versions, but the replacements have been flawless 
quest mic is infamous for making a "vorrp vorrp" sound that sounds like a helicopter
my pc only has one display port through the gpu, would i be able to daisychain it to my other display port monitors?
Again, an issue with EVERY hmd out there ATM tho
All oculus mics kinda suck honestly
AT least i havent heard on one with a mix in
good luck @dull cipher . be sure to share ur creation in the media when u r done.
Rift CV1 mic is fine
Did you ever own one? The mic's have been though all of the HMD's quite nice
especially rift s mic IMO
Honestly only rift S has a bad mic. No other headset, oculus or otherwise, has any issues
I have a rift s, I refuse to use the built in mic cause everyone I know in game using built in mic sounds like a potato
Index have decent mics and out of oculus, quest 2 is ok, but you can tell when they are using a built in mic
my only display port port through gpu is taken by two monitors (daisy chained together) so would i be able to plug a rift s into the back of my last monitor so all three are daisy chained or would that not work
Sometimes Quest mic makes weird sounds for a brief moment, at least that's what my friends say. But most of the time no one complains about the mic quality.
I also got only 3 times muted so that's also a good indicator that the quality isn't too bad
I don't mute people for mic quality I mite people for blasting music and screaming slurs lmao
index mic is literally studio quality
Mate
You don't, but others definitely will do that
Don't lie
"Studio Quality" is a word that means nothing
i typed "rift s" instead of "index", whoops!
oh god
I resorted to just blocking people, of it warrants a mute, it's safer just to block at that point
Yeah mics where you can hear everything even taking a breath lul
yikes
Index mic is at least way better than my logitech c922 webcam's microphone
Another pro of external headset? Staying in the conversation when I have to step away for a sec
My Virtual Desktop filters stuff out. It has inbuilt noise suppression which works nice. Without noise suppresion from VD i would constantly make echos for others
Hey people
Unfortunately i already make echos for other people if i don't use a seperate external mic outside of my headphones
Never was able to fix that
So i've to resort to use external standing mics on Desktop
Instead of using the headphone mic
i played it, really fun world.
super noticable when comparing audio quality recording in audacity for instance
fun map.
is it possible to just straight up make vrc or any other game resolution lower while wired connected pcvr on a quest 2
just asking if I can before I waste time researching
dumb question is there a world where you can put in a custom song?
I think you can play your song into your mic
dont play songs into the microphone
thats just annoying
yea
dont be that person who sits in the corner next to a mirror playing music and wont even talk
in a public lobby
Im standing next to people playing music in black cat
They probably muted you
i can´t mute them
ah
they all do it
I misread that.
black cat has people who do that its always been a thing evrry other lobby
Meh, at least they can dance to their music. I will adapt
not the ones ive seen
Heya, how're y'all?
still scared of pubs but otherwise good
Understandable
I came here 'cause I'm in a bit of a pickle
I wanted to set up something audio related but I'm not sure exactly how to do it.
if its worlds they got a channel for that avatars tooo
Vrc broken for anyone else
no
yea?!
Ah shit,here we go again
i dont have a pc gamer but that suck
Hey guys, new to VRchat. not really sure where to start, anyone willing to show me around for bit?
I'd say start in the black cat or the great pug if you want to be social, go to murder 4 or among us if you want to have fun, and remember to go to different avatar worlds until you find the perfect avatar for you~
ok thanks. any avatar worlds you recommend?
Depends on what your looking for cute stuff, eboys or meme avatars
not really sure what I want, I guess i'll just go browse
lol
I want to get on VRChat but ppl says it's down and I don't wanna take my trackers on for nothing~
i was able to login and enter my home world
it might only be down for some people
Ah gotcha I will try then :3
if it were down it would probably be announced and more people saying it even if not
i was able to log on
when it went down yesterday chat exploded
Time to play murder 4 then~
what's murder like
is it like mafia or more of a detective thing
mind if i join you?
noice
murder 4 tends to have less children then among us
those words move me
less not none sadly
?
this
well my name is Dangleberry in game if anyone wants to add me.
sure your welcome 2 as long your not under 13
but not now
true i got on no issue so far
no, i'm 32
what?
super there is a bunch of kids in quest compatible game worlds breaking vrchat tos
I don't want 32 year old friends
Lol
too old?
they will die soon
haha
That's a pretty fucked up thing to say but alr den. @vocal shard
yeah its been a thing everyone knows just manually submit reports against there accounts through the disc with evidence is all you can do
there isnt a underage report button yet

your a skull avatar or the bottle one?
skull
friend request sent
It is the reality, soon they will stop being useful in their jobs they will retire and soon they will die being killed by some gang member or they will simply die of old age due to other cases due to some disease
the last 2 is just everyone
32 isnt even that old lmao
32 is pretty young
i don't want 20 year old friends they will die soon
tbh i consider 70 old, my parents only just hit 40 so i couldn't imagine them as even close to old
what
i've seen some 70 year olds that kick ass
what do you mean what
80-90 is my definition of old old
hey i'm not saying they can't kick ass but their bones are definitely more frail
yeah that's fair
It is not true that the maximum and most stable age is at 30 after 30 they stop being functional, a certain part of the neurons is even maintained that it is the appropriate age for any activity, but when they reach 40 they stop being only 10 more years than a youth, that means that it is no longer possible for human beings to maintain their mental and physical health on their own
how old are you
14
makes sense
and you?
someone roast this kid for being young
how is tom brady like upper 30's and still playing in the nfl and goating
20 but i'm not going to act like i understand things i don't 
damn audio in this game.
Literally gmod
yup
Old, in my opinion, is being afraid of technology. That’s the only aspect that is relevant to me. If you are in VRChat, you ain’t old, regardless of age.
Everyone has been waiting for VR. Some much longer than others.
that's a fair take. i just think you're old when your skin is literally clinging to your bones in that weird awful way with the wrinkles
not talking isn't a bad thing. some people can't with their current living situation etc
In 40 years when VR is fully photorealistic, I’m not going to accept the zoomers of future generations making fun of me because I’m too old to be there, so I’m not going to contribute to it now either. 🙂
all are welcome
well i'm not making fun of old people at all
I know! But I do often get told I’m too old to be playing vrc, lol
It’s like Boi I’ve been waiting for this since Atari go do your math homework
this

Hello
people spend so much time worrying about strangers enjoying themselves peacefully, so negative
tfw when born after 2000 but have had much contact with atari and vcr
that is normal in people who are not sick, but are content to look for the negative
Oooo Just seen a boy being chased by 4 girls in vrchat on toilet. "Shy Boii" damn what a lucker
were they girls or g.i.r.l.s
They were definitely t r a p s
If G.I.R. L S stands for Girls IN REAL LIFE S
i think it just breeds more hate in an already sick world
so why keep insisting on those words
I heard their voices. You can´t fake your gender by voice can you?
i hear the voices calling my name
to be direct, you hurt my feelings when you said 32 year olds are old and useless and will die soon
@dark vale you realize voice training is a thing right? Pitch shifting is something everyone can do with small practice and talking feminine isn't hard tbh
try not to do that
if you ever edate make sure youve done multiple video calls
Can of worms here, but gender and pitch of voice are not necessarily correlated!
and that’s all I’ll be saying about that
I keep telling them to take me off their calling list.
calm is a world of each one
I say it just for the sake of reality, enjoy life instead of wasting it
it was still mean
I'd rather waste my life
After all I am an irrelevant life form
i support your choices

who said it was to like him
each with their thoughts of ineptitude
so youre saying you made a mean, ageist comment at someone you dont like?
i dunno sounds like hate speech
Ineptitude or not, Idc lol, I'll just waste my life with technology an stuffz. Goodbye
egg
hi egg, minimum age to be here is 13
Hi!
heya!
Bro I’m 34. You are younger than me. Stop being so old.
There’s nothing wrong with kids wanting to hang out with kids their own age. Leave him alone lol
Depending on how he took it, they never said that reality didn't hurt
i dont need a child to explain reality to me, thanks
yourwelcome
i dont need a child to explain reality to me, thanks
Tough words coming from someone who just used the word “ageist”
yep
don't worry nuho, I didn't take offense to that comment about my age.
Odd question but can VRC_Pickup be used on an avatar or only Worlds
what does the right click do in desktop?
Doesn't it just make that particle?
sometimes when i go up the stairs in the pug with the right click, the particle turns green
We doin karaoke and it is pog champ
how hard is it to male a world from existing 3d model i made?
is it harder than avatars?
I'm pretty sure you just have to add Mesh renderer and Box Collider components to the models you want to walk on/not walk through
sometimes you don't even have to do that
sometimes
Certain individual components like Dynamic Bone are not, however.
The application itself is though.
alright
There any good horror games that aren't just jumpscares?
I did The Devouring, and it was alright.
little huggy dungeons
I tried the sister dungeon thing, and it was just jumpscares.
really?
cuz when i played them there wasnt to many and they made like a 7 part series
Well the first 5 minutes or so of it was, and then I didn't want to play anymore.
Maybe I'll have to try it again.
Three years later people are still claiming the game doesn't multicore. >_>
I imagine this dumb myth will still be spreading around ten years from now.
@ruby burrow i mean we had a guy in feature requests talking about moderators manually looking at community labs world to approve them
i even still see people talking about pcs being broken because of crashers.....
in 10 years they will have like folk legends about Ugandan knuckles or something
i now have 100 hours in the steam version of vrc
woo
Woop woop
hello
Hi
Hello there
So after getting Authy, the app suggested by VRChat, I can't get in anymore despite putting in the correct code. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Is the clock set correctly and are you inputting them before the timer of the app run's out?
I'm not sure about the first part, but I am 100% certain about the second part. Right as it changes, I put in the new code, wait for the bar to go 1/2 down so VRChat had time to recognize the new pin, then I put in said pin.
There is no need to wait for anythign.
Not waiting still doesn't help sadly
While the bar is 90% full, the code still doesn't work
Not sure if that does play a factor, but definitely check the clocks.
Else, use a backup code to login and remove the 2FA, then assign it again.
I'm not 100% sure where the clock thing is
Tho, 2FA shouldn't just break.
And with the backup code, I was given that right when I did it, right?
The codes the website told you to definitely write down somewhere for emergency cases, yeah.
Tho, definitely try to look up if there is anything wrong in terms of time / clock or so 
anyonee else timimng out
Sorry, but I have no idea what you mean when you're talking about the time/clock
Do you mean for my phone, somewhere in the app, or..?
😓 I am, though the weird thing is that I don't recall seeing any prompt saying "Hey, these are your recover codes"
And I typically download those >.>
(Normally you shouldn't ever need those unless you loose physical access to the tokens so phone and such without backups.)
Right.. but somehow this refuses to work, which is killing me.
If I upload an avi that is under an object will it still upload everything above it or only objects under it in the Hierarchy
Heyo. Does anyone know where to find the chair prefab that allows you to adjust your height (with a little grip)? I've been looking everywhere...
Hey guys, i just got my first vr headset for cheap from a friend of mine, a like-new Oculus rift with 3 base stations and two touch controllers. Anyone know the best VRchat settings for the Oculus rift? Not sure if this is the place to ask, so please let me know if i need to move my question.
I'm using a Dell Inspiron 5680 with 16 gigs of ram.
did you get a questlink ?
is there a way to rank up to user rank?
normally playing the game worked for me
i got user rank at 120 friends, around 90 hours, and 8 avatars uploaded
Is there a place or discord for self advertising? It’s against the rules here and I’m looking for people for a thing I’m doing
my friend only played vrchat for 36 min now she got user rank instantly, i dunno if this is glitch
anyone wanna play
wth
anyone wanna play?
Just go into a public lobby
anyone else have a problem where they have a really good computer but right when someone's avatar loads in your entire screen freezes for a couple seconds?
thats just kinda
how the game runs
Yo
It would be great if vrchat got an oculus quest 2 enhanced update
It would be AWSOME
what do you mean by enhanced
probably performance improvements
Exactly
i would say "just link it to your pc" but i don't actually know how well that works and that assumes you have a capable pc
Yo I found this world on vrchat where It doesn’t wanna load or download. I really need the L4D2 avatars😩😩
quest 1 version could use some performance improvements as well
when i used to play on quest 1 standalone (my pc wasn't powerful enough to handle vr back then, i've since then upgraded to a leagues better pc and can run pcvr) it was LAGGY AS HELL
It’s a l4d2 avatar world but it doesn’t work. I’ve tried everything
I never had this lag before the latest update :/
shame
It works fairly well on my $850 (sale price) laptop
recent update probably fucked the optimization then
And let's not argue about desktops vs laptops.
my game stuttered to hell and back in a 24 player lobby but smaller sizes seem to get over it
I mean look at gun club VR. It got an oculus quest 2 update. It would mean a lot if vrchat had a type of update like that
i actually forget how much my laptop was lemme check
my old pc was around 500 bucks, pretty sure this one's around 1,000
First, I think they need an update for an overall desktop performance boost before it drips down to Quest 2
Whistles.
Btw, quick q.
ah
my laptop was $720 with student discounts and such
i5 9300h, gtx 1650, 8gb ram, blah blah
If you send a message to the support team, do you have to go back to the website and make another note, or can you just reply to their response via email reply?
Not bad! Mine was $999 (brand new, struck the market a few days ago) and went on a $150 sale. I5 10300H, GTX 1660-ti Max Q, 8GB Ram (upgraded almost instantly)
It also has a 16.1 screen
i should probably snag some more ram and storage for my birthday
Mine sadly doesn't.
I have 2 m.2 ssd slots, or whatever they're called, but one of them is occupied by a 32GB Intel Optane module.
Which I will probably recycle and use in my future desktop if it survives 3-4 more years of use
Though then again, by that time, I'll just have a gen 4 SSD running >.>
100% glitch but dont tell anyone
it would normally take like 100 hours
oh
yeahh
They have always said big exceptions are possible
who knows maybe he did the secret combination to gain xp super quick accidently
vrchat speedrun user%
does nobady talk anymore or is my game buggin
your game's probably bugging
try restarting it
i have already but everyone is quiet
it might just be that instance
im new so is it rare for people to speak?
no
Idk I'm pretty new too. You just kind of run into them
hmm alright
You two are new?
yes.
Yeah pretty much
I have an Oculus rift, not quest.
My Vrchat seemed to lag more the longer i was in a server, anyone know a possible reason why?
Should i limit vrchat's resolution to the resolution of each screen in my Oculus Rift?
Black Cat and The Great Pug are some good social worlds
It spiked when i was looking at a specific area of the room but it was only moderate lag before it kept going up, it was probably some people's avatars or something
though i didn't see many avatar changes when i was in the room
or any special effect anims
hmm
Try using Safety Settings to disable everything except Voices and Avatars for everyone but friends and some worlds you can disable Chairs and Colliders
i am in black cat and everyone is quiet ..
some worlds are like that
wew i just won a round of murder
try world hopping
👌
also gained a fan nickname
"watermelon-chan"
damn
@dim niche yeah the rift s does give out lag when your in a public world for a while
Or take out the steam menu to navigate the settings or something
I got it from a friend who didn't use it much at all
ahhh
That's why i got it cheap, and it's good for a first VR headset imo!
i'll definitely upgrade in the future though lol
did you make sure your Oculus Software is UTD
isn't there a bot that can tell us how many people are on vrc
The rift s is cheap
But I don't think you should get it in the future
compared to other vr yeah
How do i check that?
Facebook in like a year or two is gonna force people who have oculus to sign in with their Facebook account
Everything is working fine so i assume i installed the correct oculus software
so just the lag?
That's been a thing for a while already
Yes lol
the only other VR game i have is space pirate trainer so yeah, just lag in vrchat
if you hold shift while vrchat is opening a dialog will open and you can select Graphics quality and turn it to VRLow
did that help @dim niche
Still checking it out
Don't spam your question across multiple channels pls
Is it cool if I ask a thing?
Its boring there
Sure
Try instance hopping you may find some interesting people
If you do VRChat on a laptop, is there a risk of overheating?
depends on your laptop's specs
Depends on the laptop
If you have a laptop with a bad design I guess
with most modern games ur laptop will heat up
It will but whether or not it will be overheating is a different story
overheating will just shut ur computer off most of the time
^
Ideally yes. In laptops I've noticed that doesn't really happen, they'll just run parts at like 98 - 100 C without shutting off
its not gunna melt the die off or anything
what im saying is, its not gonna break or anything
If you limit VRChat's Power usage you should be fine
I've had laptops turn off from overheating before lmao it was scary, try to not game with a laptop directly on your bed
Limit? How much?
yeah id be more concerned on burning ur leg then hurting the laptop
But currently I play with a laptop and it's fine
Probably to "Normal"
It's also not on my bed
like if your really worried just keep an eye on the temps
VRChat is on Very High Power usage for me but I have a good enough computer :3
^
Dunno much, just that it's packing an Intel CORE i5.
do you know how to go to task manager and check ( click the task bar, open task manager, go to performance, and tell us ur cpu and gpu)
i would send photo examples but i can send photos here 😭
CPU's at...1.63 tops, not sure I even use GPU yet.
RAM?
...Doesn't say on the performance thing.
have you tried clicking on the memory section
should go
cpu
memory
some other stuff
gpu
my laptop gets very hot
it's never shut off from overheating but it thermal throttles even with an undervolt slapped on and raised for airflow
I got 2.4 GB of memory open, does that help?
out of what total?
granted both of those are the technology equivalent of raindances anyways
When you hanging out in VRChat by yourself. Heh.
Around 11.1 GB.
thats all i do😎
Cuz ur on a laptop
.
alright so if you click on you cpu what do you see should be somethnig like intel(E) core(TM) i5-8400 (for example)
Hm
well yes
i wasn't looking for help i was stating a fact
yes thats the topic
anyone wanna play vr chat
Hi mr uzamaki
Let's return to this later, OK?
im going to bed but you'll be fine
ur shit wont break
at most it gets really hot and laggy
So i might be getting a quest 2 but i also want to be playing vrchat on it, does vrchat cost money when it comes to the quest 2?
Okay thank you
vrchat made me want to kill myself
👀
So many people
Tried to throw themselves onto me
.>
and do weird shit,
couldnt relate
i require help
?
i have an avatar code someone gave me for a kon and i have no idea how to get it on my account
not sure what you mean by avatar code
You can only use that avatar code with a mod and discussion of mods isn't allowed here as they are against TOS
this code
Read what I messaged above
wha
hi
hi
Is it so much to ask that I find a decent lobby with chill folks. Sighs
Usage of avatar ids to favorite an avatar requires mods which are against TOS be careful not to post those IDs here @thick light you might get banned.
lol i was in one before
i havent really been on vrc since christmas, i hope the squeakers leave one day
I doubt it.
There. Fixed.
its a great headset
I have an HTC Vive myself.
but it allows everyone in
Safety Settings :3
boring
its not just safety settings. they have a voice and everything
maybe its time i leave vrc for a different platform
like?
neos or chilloutvr
:/
chilloutvr looks ight but neos looks wack
you guys have headsets?
yea
ye
neos just has so much support for things
problem with using another platform is they're all pretty low pop
yall i made my own avatar on a new account but it says i need to be in vrchat for a long time for security reasons and cus to know more about it i dont know how long can you guys help me please?
it's highly variable
play and it will let you know
just keep playing, i got it in under a day i think
keep in mind you need to register an account on the vrchat website for uploading business also
then wait more
Hi Carl
does anyone know if you buy vrc+ a second time if it will raise your rank even more?
Idk
i assume no, because you already got the rank increase.
Ive noticed that after playing vr chat i find myself sitting on the floor more often
lol
im tryna wait to get my avatar i mainly use a small lizard
The only problem with Toga is if you need to look down her little scarf gets in the way a bit
or a giant lady
i used her skin so i used the one with no armor

I hate phantom sense cause I never know someone has it until I end up hurting them and then I feel bad
I've spent the last 5 hours on vrchat. how come i didn't find a single decent person in all that time?
bad luck
you'd think there'd be at least one.
no
Imagine buying VRC+ just to get a higher rank
so if you dont already have a buncha friends is there any point in vrchat honestly
Nah I found some great people just go through some diff worlds
Same
i've been doing that for this past week :/
I cant be the only that has that issue with phantom sense right
lemme add your sorry ass then
nothing wrong with it
For me it would be literally uselsess as i'm already trusted lol
nah man you got to get that veteran in the api
k but why make fun of others
you people take stuff way to seriously
nah
🤡
just kinda tired of people being dicks
let people buy vrc+ if they want
and everybody can be happy
Dont see a problem = is no problem
no problem is what I'm saying
fs
Buy VRC+ for whatever reason but not just for a useless rank
if you are visitor it will allow you to upload
That may be the only time it's understandable but if you are already over that, then not really anymore
curiously enough I got known user when I got vrc+ lmao, it was not the reason I got it but, that was cool I guess
And i'm done with Unity today. Upgraded one of my avatars to sdk3, added a material and orb toggle.
Need to replace the emotes, currently i only have the standard emotes
Avatars 3 lets me clear up my avatar list, now i don't have to have multiple avatars anymore for a few things like textures and other items
woot
is there anywhere for ppl who are 21+ at least
not on the discord no your gonna need to find a 21+ community yourself somehow in vrc
ight so this about the time when someone makes a controversial statement and revives the chat
oculus quest 2
it's only around 299 USD and it's the cheapest headset that gives recent performance
Hmmmm
Dam well ill keep playing kbm then😂😭
Also how do i change keybinds on keyboard
not sure if that's possible
well it's "VR"Chat. It's not "desktop"chat or something
so how's vrchat servers now? is it still 280ms-400ms ping or is it fixed?
Oh ive been playing all day and i haven't noticed any lag so o wouldn't know
What country do you live in? Only see users report pings that high if they're really far from the U.S
ahh ok so i hope it's fixed when i get on tonight
that's only you probably
it's usually 200ms and at least i can understand when people are talking,
yesterday and the day before yesterday was "a-e-o-i-i-i-i-a-a" like stuttering
im playing overwatch with 20ms ping on 100mbps fiber internet with ethernet cable, not wifi
do you live in USA?
no
servers are in USA, overwatch has several servers all over the world
yes i know that. but could it be something has to do with chilloutvr being released?
ever since cvr released, it happened.
I have 124 ping right now (not in USA)
both vrchat and cvr uses aws servers right?
I don't think it is related to cvr, as it seems only you have this problem
Also important to note. VRChat has a few servers, one of them I'll get about 120 ping, the other roughly 170 ping
maybe you were playing during the "maintenance" hours in vrchat
they announced it on the discord, maybe you didn't read it
but if you played during that time, connection problems were to be expected
is it user or new user that can import custom avtar.
new
?upload
You must obtain at least "New User" Trust Rank in our Trust and Safety system in order to upload content. You can get this by just spending a few hours in VRChat, hop some worlds, and make some friends. Give it some time and you'll be able to upload content in no time.
As an aside, you must have a VRChat account to upload content. That means you can't use a Steam account, Oculus account, or Viveport account to upload content like worlds or avatars.

i have more than 10 hours of playtime and 30+ friends
well you need more then
okay.
There's no estimated time.
wish ghey said excatly when.
oh.
it was 6 hours after the announcement
¯_(ツ)_/¯
🎲
Are you trying to upload your own avatars? You'll need to create a VRChat account if so
No i just saw a steam user guy use other skins and not public
You sure? I.E. 100% sure they weren't public and that he was not using a steam account.
And how do you know the avatar wasn't public?
That doesn't necessarily mean it's a steam account. Could've just been apart of his username
skins
or avatar
Good mornig^^
Hi
Heyy
There is 40k people in this group I’m surprised I’m not getting spammed with notifications
those notifications are not allowed
Oh
everyday some idiot tries spamming the server with (at) everyone and those kinds of things
hi guys im sorry for bothering any of you but im planning on getting the quest 2 vr and i have a question do i need a fast wifi or if i connect to to my pc will it use my ethernet ?
if you connect via ethernet then you don't need wifi
What's the price of a quest 2
300-400
@vocal shard 299$
USD
Wow, then I'll stay with my pc 😂
depending on where you live
Should I get rift s?
no
What headset should I get
Valve Index
@open crescent so it does work if i plug my quest 2 to my pc the ethernet will work ?
I can’t afford that
well you asked
yes
are you sure testdostres ?
yes
Well is the quest 2 any good with link?
cuz cant find on youtube
better than rift s
Ok
rift is basically discontinued, because the new product is the quest
not looking like it
have you used quest 2 @open crescent ?
Only quest 3 from this point on
I have a valve index
ohhh
@vocal shard if i plug my quest 2 into my pc will it use my pc ethernet ?
So if I buy quest 2 and get Vive trackers will I need to buy lighthouse as well
lmao why don't you believe me
you should be checking the official documentation then, not asking random people on a discord
to be honest i cant find any thing
yes
you are not doing a very good job of searching, should work on those skills
can you help me ?
Think I’m just gonna get a valve because its ending up as the same price
I answered your question already, you don't believe me lmao
well i will believe you xD
Hey can someone help me maybe?
i will buy it
the "el cheapo" option for full body tracking is a kinect, way cheaper, but of course the quality is not as good
VR chat wont let me log in I’ve changed my username and password but it still says invalid
I have an old 360 Kinect will that work?
yes
What do I download for it
Try your email rather than user name.
ask @fossil root the expert on kinect fbt
The login prompts are honestly a little poorly worded.
Ok checking now
Since that was the problem my brother had at least.
it’s being a pain smh
THAT Did it thanks @ruby burrow
Thank you
(but if you can afford the index, it's pretty cool)
Glad I could help. ^ ^
Kinect FBT is generally more of a "standing and maybe sitting FBT". It will somewhat fight you on most other things.
Anybody plays with Quest 2?
ME
Is it better?
It’s good
(Kinect FBT) Can add more life to casual interactions and allow a decent degree of motion, but soon as you start trying to do things like dance, it gets really floaty, and things like laying down or rolling around, it just gives up.
It’s the first VR headset i owned
Do I need to buy a cable adapter for my Kinect because it’s a different usb
You'll need a USB to USB-C connector, far as I understand.
Same kind as the power cable, just longer.
Oh ok
Oh, and look for an "active" cable.
Aight, well I'll save money for it^^
Since that's needed for the extra length, and to still provide power at that length.
Ok
I got the 399$ with the 256 Gb @vocal shard
Thanks
ayaya
Idk how much it is here
where are you?
Belgium
