Now I’m going out of town to pick up my Fiancé (see profile pick for my Brown Sugar!!), and it’s nice because I’ll be gone Saturday but I have a Bible study in VRC that I don’t want to miss

[woven magnet]

Have fun

[void sail]

You can do full body with Quest

Easy

[woven magnet]

🤔

I thought it seemed odd when they said you couldn't

[tropic crater]

I assume it's some kind of playspace combination

[void sail]

Yep, now you’d still need the trackers for Vive, or the new Tundra trackers

No you can use the same full body as everyone else

[woven magnet]

Can I use index controllers?

[pliant epoch]

It requires base-stations, Vive trackers and a program from Github called OVR space-calibrator.

[woven magnet]

I know it requires base stations.....

[void sail]

You can use Tundra trackers, a phone, camera, Xbox sensors, etc

[woven magnet]

I'm not an idiot 🤣

As I said I have index and full body coming in soon

[void sail]

Nice!

[compact fossil]

You can do really cheap Full body tracking with and xbox kinect(with plug adapter) its it's big ... eh but it works

[woven magnet]

I just want wireless for more extreme dancing

[compact fossil]

Ah

[void sail]

Yeah so I get it now. You made a big purchase and here I am saying Quest is better lol. Naw I liked my index for what it was back then, and it’s still pretty good

You did well, and will enjoy index for sure!

[tropic crater]

Probably can use the knuckles if it's just a steamvr playspace being used for the trackers

[woven magnet]

If you don't already have the Kinnect it's better just to get real full body and you can't do any fast movement with either connect I have access to both

[compact fossil]

Wow, seeing everyone talk about the index, plugging into pc, Valve trackers. Really puts me, my now pc and my quest 2 to shame XD

[void sail]

Yeah I have both and prefer not to be in full body anymore because of the hassle, as I’m in VR a LOT (8hrs+ a day)

[compact fossil]

No* not now

[void sail]

No I have an index but prefer my Quest 2 by far

[pliant epoch]

The Vive cosmos/Pro series has a wireless adapter(that's very expensive) and requires a very beefy PC but is compatible with FBT.

[woven magnet]

What hassle 🤣

[compact fossil]

I can't afford and index... or anything. In 17 and have no job and no money

[woven magnet]

Well ya...

[tropic crater]

putting the trackers on the feets and uh

[void sail]

Hassle?? Lol omg…I know someone that sewed the charging cables for his trackers into his clothes

And wore a special suit with belt for full body tracking

[woven magnet]

Would have been easier just to cut the cable short

[rancid jewel]

using tissue boxes for fbt brb

[woven magnet]

We're talking track strap plus right?

[void sail]

Ok so legend has it he had a special belt with a USB hub attached, he had cables sewed into his clothes to charge each tracker to n his feet and belt, and sewed the USB hub cable out the back, suspended, and down the wall to another charger

[tropic crater]

was he living in vr?

[void sail]

He was in full body and in VR a lot

I’m in VR like 8-10hrs a day, so I understand

[rancid jewel]

that man is vr at that point

[woven magnet]

I'd rather wear fun cloths than a special suit

[void sail]

Lol right Angel

“Fun” for me is a t-shirt and shorts lol

[pliant epoch]

It's not that inconvenient unless you're having to attach duct-tape(that's replaced after every session) to your socks to minimize tracker movement like I'm having to do with Trackstrap+ and 2.0 trackers.

[tropic crater]

i was just saying dumb stuff dw

i usually do fbt bare foot but now that it's cold maybe not

[woven magnet]

I'm getting 3.0s and I be upgrading to the 8 tracker set up when tundras are released (kick starter ended the 28th a day before I was gonna buy)

[tropic crater]

found it stable and wasnt stressing the straps as bad like it did with shoes

[tropic crater]

knee and elbow support wen

[void sail]

My next headset will be the Decagear for face tracking, but they shut down early orders so they literally won’t even let me give them my money

Psh….

[woven magnet]

Neos is the only game that supports it atm. The ik is better too. I'd rather vrc just catch up on those two fronts than have to play Neos though

As much as competition between games is good for development neos just isn't that. It's basically vrc but with an extra thing or two. Like eye tracking, mouth tracking, and 7+ FB trackers.

Not enough to be competition sadly as it runs just as well sometimes a little worse.

If vrc had real competition I think we'd see more growth in the game and a possible expansion in the dev team if the current one has too much work.

Facebook is working on their ready player one type multiverse so maybe we'll get something when that gets closer to launch.

Vrc dev team working with valve maybe?

[tropic crater]

the only thing keeping on vrc is the people i know

[woven magnet]

Might want to remove that

[tropic crater]

some of the announced updates have been really hype too

im hoping an unreal vr ugc centered game comes out. epic has been making some very good strides with ugc support

theyve learnt big time on their fortnite creative work

[woven magnet]

As I'll have full body soon I was thinking about just moving over but thank goodness I found a dance group/instructors in vrc

[woven magnet]

Ugc?

[tropic crater]

user generated content

[woven magnet]

My brain is fried I can't think

[woven magnet]

I mean it's been a thing for ages now even before ue4

[tropic crater]

you can have completely isolated modules/plugins with content and script that can be loaded in at runtime now

even fortnite shifted to an approach where each season is basically just a plugin

i was more meaning about they stepped up their ugc game than introducing it

[woven magnet]

Switching from unity to unreal would be a breeze and feel soooo much better but sadly most content creators for vrc wouldn't see it that way

[tropic crater]

i dont think itd be a breeze but it would give a lot more control of things they dont seem to have with non-source build unity

[woven magnet]

I've spent a ton of time with unity in comparison to unreal and I don't really need to ask questions about how to do something in unreal unlike with unity

[tropic crater]

thats pretty surprising, from what ive experienced

most people ive met are the other way around

[woven magnet]

They have more features than unity so they're probably talking about that

[tropic crater]

ue4 has a code documentation issue and best practice issue

[woven magnet]

????

[tropic crater]

i only know best practices because i work with veterans and epic themselves

before, my ue4 code was rubbish

[woven magnet]

You have lost me but I'm calling in backup to help my fried brain understand

[dawn star]

What @woven magnet ?

[woven magnet]

Messages from 12:11 and after

[dawn star]

I don't understand what you want to me contribute, Personally I find the Unreal docs to be more usable then unity's from my experience (having not used unity a whole lot)

And when it comes to best practices I don't know how well unity does compared to unreal but for example naming standard seems a bit vague for unreal

[tropic crater]

The docs are mostly pregen based on java doc comments in the engine code

It’s not incredibly helpful

[dawn star]

Are you saying for unity or unreal?

[tropic crater]

Unreal

Im meaning purely for the cpp api. The documentation for systems generally are fine otherwise

Especially editor facing systems

One of the new best practices we’ve been told to use is push model replication. There’s still yet to be full documentation on it

[dawn star]

Ya I can agree it does have some very auto gen stuff but I was having trouble with the unity docs doing the same but at least for unreal I can look at source code really easily

[tropic crater]

Im not really doing a comparison. I dont use unity aside from vrc stuff so my knowledge and experience is limited

[woven magnet]

So you where saying what I thought

Sentence just looked funky to me

[tropic crater]

I talk like a total bean sorry lol

[woven magnet]

Well that's the level my brain is atm

[tropic crater]

Same tbh

[dawn star]

From what I have used of unity it seems simpler in a lot of ways compared to unreal but for me that doesn't make it easier, it makes it feel limiting. I understand why people might prefer that over Unreal though, even if I don't

[tropic crater]

That’s totally true imo

In areas of a game that you would require a unity source build anyway to polish. Why give yourself that limit initially in the first place when there’s other options?

[dawn star]

ya

[tropic crater]

I just hope they dump more legacy stuff in ue5

[dawn star]

If I was more experienced in unity I could very well see myself using it for little projects like game jams I know won't go anywhere beyond the jam but for anything of a larger scale...

[tropic crater]

The int size limit in ue3 wasnt fun already. Having it sort of sort of not bleed in to ue4 wasnt fun when transitioning

[dawn star]

Lol ya I thought about that the other day too

[tropic crater]

Unity is incredible for jams

[dawn star]

I have been using godot for jams most recently

[tropic crater]

Even then though if you have a good grasp of unreal it can be used to prototype very quickly

We pump out prototypes every couple months without really any issue

[vocal shard]

Hellou

[tropic crater]

Godot seems really interesting. Would love to try it one day

[dawn star]

Ya I tried making the same prototype in ue5 and unity 2021 and it took no time at all in unreal but I kept having issues with unity being odd

[tropic crater]

Getting a grant from epic of all companies lol

[dawn star]

Hello

[vocal shard]

What are we gonna talk about

[dawn star]

Godot has some oddities but it's a nice little engine

Game engines like unreal, unity, godot

[vocal shard]

Ok.

Can we speak japanese for fun lol

[tropic crater]

I saw their flexibility of multiple script languages. Seems really neat keeping options open

[dawn star]

I've only used GDscript so far

[tropic crater]

I have no japanese knowledge

[dawn star]

neither do I

[vocal shard]

sad

let me say something

the japanese words like kun,chan and san is like calling people names politely

like

hazel-kun

something like that

[tropic crater]

Nice

[dawn star]

cool

[vocal shard]

do u want me to actually teach you?

[tropic crater]

I wanted to learn for years but never really had the time to

[vocal shard]

o

Ohayou means goodmorning

what else do u want to learn in japanese?

vinyl-san LuL

[dawn star]

What about saying something is tasty?

[vocal shard]

if u mean delicious

oishi

[dawn star]

cool

[vocal shard]

what else

[woven magnet]

Ohaiyo....

[vocal shard]

LuL

Ohayou..

[woven magnet]

No...

Pain

[vocal shard]

Daijoubu desu ka?

[woven magnet]

That's informal too

[tropic crater]

I thought it had an i until 2019 lol

[woven magnet]

Yes I'm okay

[vocal shard]

ahh

[woven magnet]

#japanese

[vocal shard]

what?

....

i do speak japanese but not japanese words...

gomena

[woven magnet]

So you can speak but not read

[vocal shard]

Hai

[tropic crater]

I’ve heard thats fairly common with most people learning languages

[woven magnet]

I hate kanji but I'm fine with hiragana and katakana

[tropic crater]

Yeahh it seems difficult

If i was to learn id probably have to do experience learning. Either go to the country or involve myself in jp communities

The only jp I know, i learnt from ff14 because i can only play on jp servers

[woven magnet]

Why is that?

[tropic crater]

No oce servers

[woven magnet]

Ahhh

[tropic crater]

Slightly better ping than na

[woven magnet]

It's just an MMO lol

Bad ping doesn't matter. And if only slightly better might as well play na right?

[tropic crater]

I do high end raiding. It matters a bit

Did* i dont atm

[dawn star]

@woven magnet You unconcerned about ping? What happened to you!?!?!

[tropic crater]

Also the community has been so much better in jp ff14

[muted wharf]

sqex is adding oceania servers btw

:p

[tropic crater]

Yeah but...

[muted wharf]

you'll have to lose friends to migrate over

[tropic crater]

Some of the jp homies are like family

[dawn star]

lol that sounds understandable

[woven magnet]

I don't care much in MMOs

Or mc

[tropic crater]

Ping used to affect things pretty bad

Still kinda does with mechanic snapshotting

But it was pretty much the difference between being able to pull off optimal rotations or not

[uneven kernel]

I just realize if i am not on much then my friends i made on Vrchat will be like who the heck are you. And i would be like an friend oof ( I should try getting on at some point on Vrchat) LOL

[summer glen]

What

[oak oar]

dont friend every person you meet and leave em afterwards

[wheat marsh]

Hi bro! That's illegal

[cold lava]

hi y'all

[pseudo badger]

hi

i am on vrchat on my pc so how do i create an avatar

[undone igloo]

you can find one

[pliant epoch]

Using unity and blender. You can also create an avatar using programs such as Vroid and readyplayer.me. Readyplayer.me is the easiest one to use but is severely lacking in customization features.

[pseudo badger]

Thx

[summer glen]

If i play on quest to login on the website i cant log in with my quest email and password so what do i login with

[noble depot]

You need a VRChat account to login to the website or SDK

[pliant epoch]

You create a VRchat account.

[noble depot]

you can merge your Oculus account with a fresh VRChat account and keep your rank, avatars, and etc o:

[eternal coral]

how do i make a crchat accout first and it will be in the settings?

[noble depot]

On the VRChat website, click Login and then click the Registration tab at the top

once you've made a VRChat account, go to the Account Link section, there's instructions there c:
It'll also ask for a merge token - to make one, login ingame with your Oculus account and go to the settings, then click Upgrade Account

Note that you'll keep the name of the VRChat account you make, not your Oculus account

[eternal coral]

okk thx so much

[vital star]

Hi im new to this server and maybe it isnt the best place, but I was wondering if anyone could answer some questions about the Valve Index. Ive been looking into it and I have some questions

[pliant epoch]

What are your questions?

[vital star]

I was wondering about how well a 1660 Super would run with the valve? I really dont know much about it

[pliant epoch]

So this would most likely require you to reduce rendering resolution by 15% at least and probably more. It would perform terribly in VRchat even with you heavily reducing rendering resolution. A 1660 super performs similar to a GTX 1070 which is the minimum line for the Valve index.

[vital star]

How many frames do you think it would run on Vrchat? or something like Pavlov?

[vocal shard]

a lot

[pliant epoch]

So for VRchat I don't know due to the many factors that effect VRchats' performance. Pavlov it probably will work with reduced rendering resolution.

[vital star]

So you think its worth it? should I get the Valve?

[pliant epoch]

VRchat will perform pretty badly most likely unless you hide both poor and very poor performance avatars combined with a reduced rendering resolution of at least 15%(probably more). You might just barely be able to get 45-90 frames in VRchat. I would say go for it. Though I recommend upgrading your GPU ASAP.

[vital star]

Ok. Thanks so much

in reality he probably won't get more than 30 unless he's in a very low populated world

[wild raft]

Just jumped down the vrc trolling video rabbit hole... its kind of strange.. Why do people feel the need to engage VRC troll channels when the creators show up and start fights? Seriously its confusing to me. I understand its lizard brain stuff. threat-solution. But you gain nothing from engaging. You are not going to REASON with these people..they are not reasonable people. You are to going to "own" them with logic, becouse they are illogical. You may be able to YELL louder than them. But what does that accomplish. Thats just content for them.

The worst thing for these D-bag channels is if the ENTIRE instance blocks them. No people to fight with = no content. No stans no simps. They get marked as nussence status and vanish from the platform. That's the solution to the threat.

but people TRY to engage and the d-bags end up controling the entire instance

[twin fractal]

don't think people think that far ahead

[summer glen]

@wild raft you must be a blast at parties huh

[vocal shard]

hi

[vocal shard]

hi so, my index controllers wont track my fingers, but they track my thumbs, help???

[noble depot]

That's an issue with the last SteamVR update - in SteamVR's controller settings, set VRChat's bindings to a community binding, then back to the default one
If that doesn't fix it, try leaving it on a community binding?

[vocal shard]

how do i exactly go to vrchat bindings through steamvr?

wait nvm, i think i just found it

[noble depot]

In VR, open the SteamVR overlay and click the settings button at the bottom-right - or on SteamVR's desktop app, click the hamburger menu at the top-left of SteamVR, and go to Settings
Click the controller settings from there, then open the old binding UI iirc

[vocal shard]

im just getting a black screen for when i press old bindings

@noble depot

[noble depot]

ik hold on, setting up my headset so I can check on my end

[vocal shard]

alright

i just had to restart steamvr, i might be able to get it to work now

[noble depot]

kk, if that doesn't fix it try this: - In the controller settings, click MANAGE CONTROLLER BINDINGS, then select VRChat from the dropdown menu that shows up, then set the active controller binding to Custom
Click "Choose Another", pick a community binding, and then optionally go back to the default binding

[vocal shard]

just got it working, thanks for telling me this!

guys i have a question? is there a wiki or a vr world where all the info of vr chat can be read or watched, meaning why we can make portals that we can go to a other world? why we can build portals? what the connection of the worlds? like a library of information? The lore of the world of vrchat or even the first world ever made?

[umbral reef]

I got the answers for it all, its Virtual reality.

But no, the social game does not have an extensive lore

It’s pretty fun! Sometimes there will be public lobbies but as of recently it’s friends+ because of crashers

I could probably get you in a game if you’re interested in trying sometime!

Once I get my downloading issue resolved, that is

ive been running into alot of crashers on this game recently no fun ;I

[meager solstice]

Not at all, the best way to make friends isn’t through discord in my opinion it’s through playing vrc and there r tons of people in right now

If they already have Facebook quest 2

It's an amazing headset, only real downside is the requirement for a Facebook account to log in and use it.

I recommend making one in advance anyways, just to make sure you don't get immediately banned

[unreal verge]

Agreed

[floral yew]

When I enter a room with more then 5 or 6 people my pc lags alot and idk why

[woven magnet]

Oh

Turn off global dynamic bones

[floral yew]

Even if I set the graphics to very low it still lags

[woven magnet]

And turn up safety settings

[floral yew]

Wait what?

[unreal verge]

Wish they would have kept Oculus accounts

[tropic crater]

it isnt a light game, toggle things off in safety settings

[floral yew]

hold on

[tropic crater]

i think dyn bones are off by default now

[floral yew]

Can we dm and talk about it because idk what that means

[woven magnet]

I think so too but some people it's auto on. Bit of a glitch

Naw we can chat here

[tropic crater]

lol wouldnt be surprised

[woven magnet]

Everyone knows about it

[floral yew]

Okay so I'm gonna load up the game now

[woven magnet]

I think it's at the top right of safety settings in the advanced tab?

I'm at work so I can't check

[tropic crater]

yeah it is

[woven magnet]

I always have it on as I don't have lag issues lol 💪

[floral yew]

Okay so the game is loaded up

So do I just go to privacy?

[woven magnet]

Open up safety settings

[floral yew]

Okay

[tropic crater]

yeah, the only performance issues i get are vram related

[woven magnet]

Go to the top right and click advance

[floral yew]

Okay I'm in safety now

[woven magnet]

I was running a r9 390 8gb but I just got an index without knowing r9 isn't supported even if plenty powerful so my roommate traded me his 1080ti for now (basically till he upgrades from his 2080ti and I buy that off him)

[floral yew]

I see performance options

[woven magnet]

Ya

[floral yew]

Okay now what?

[woven magnet]

Do you see dynamic bones after clicking that

Make sure it's set to off

If it is just set safety to max

[floral yew]

Okay limit dynamic bone usage is off

What do I do now?

[woven magnet]

You can also set file size limits but I haven't bothered seeing how

Well now that it's off you should be better

If not just turn safety to max

[floral yew]

I see maximum avatar download size should I just set that to the lowest?

[woven magnet]

I'd say maybe 30

[floral yew]

Or no limit

[woven magnet]

You'll still see most stuff at 30 but be saved from the cancer

[tropic crater]

i assume it might depend on your pc

[floral yew]

Okay I set it to 30

[unreal verge]

Don't do no limit or you may get surprised with 500 MB avatars

[floral yew]

okay I set it to 30

[woven magnet]

If you want to see someone that is hidden you can always click on them and show avatar

Your preformance is more important

[floral yew]

Huh it's working now

[woven magnet]

Oh you're not lagging as much?

Nice

[floral yew]

Well it's not lagging as much

but I am still lagging

[unreal verge]

True i keep my avatars below 30. Currently at 18 MB.

[woven magnet]

You can turn the file size down to 20 if you want

[vocal shard]

30 MB? Wtf mines at 300

[unreal verge]

Tf

[floral yew]

Wait what's multisample antialiasing?

[woven magnet]

Keep that off

[tropic crater]

you should keep that off on low spec

[unreal verge]

I've my limit set to 100 MB

[woven magnet]

Looks nice but expensive

[vocal shard]

Disable Antialaising

[tropic crater]

MSAA is old news anyway

stinky

[floral yew]

Wait I have
Minimum displayed performance rank to very poor
Is that okay?

[woven magnet]

Naw set that to something better

Poor at the very least

[floral yew]

Okay I set it to poor

[woven magnet]

Very poor is really anything

[floral yew]

Hopefully the lag will stop

[woven magnet]

If you're still lagging bump it up

[unreal verge]

Very poor can perform from good to wtf is that abomination

[woven magnet]

You can always just show avatars for those you're talking to

[floral yew]

Hmmm

Okay so here's my settings so far

[vocal shard]

You’re playing desktop or vr version of Vrc?

[unreal verge]

My avatars are very poor cause of a single Feature :(
Particle polygon size 6k

[vocal shard]

Oof

[floral yew]

Minimum displayed performance rank: poor
Maximum download size: 20mb
Limit dynampic bone usage off
Multisample antialising disabled

Should the lag stop?

[woven magnet]

Argh I still about about 5 and a half hours on my shift it feels like ages 😭 I've been awake for over 24 hours

[unreal verge]

And normal poly size a bit over limit (somewhere 70k)

[woven magnet]

Should help

[floral yew]

Okay I'm gonna enter a chat room and see how it goes

[woven magnet]

Enjoy your vrc adventures 👍

[tropic crater]

dang lol, is it at least easy work?

[floral yew]

Okay so the lag seemed to have calmed down

[woven magnet]

Night audit at a hotel

[floral yew]

If it still lags I'm gonna set everything to the lowest setting

[unreal verge]

I could remove the Throwjoint and my avatars would go medium but i don't like taking features away from public avatars if they don't even impact performance

[woven magnet]

Lots of fine details but also a lot of sitting around

[floral yew]

Here we go to the black cat we go

[vocal shard]

[floral yew]

Also is there a way I can change my controls to the arrow keys?

[woven magnet]

Had to deal with a tweaker tonight

I was basically his front desk buddy

[tropic crater]

oh lord

[woven magnet]

Never have them as we are kinda the #1 hotel but it happens

At times

[floral yew]

So wheres the control change area?

[woven magnet]

Settings

Control bindings should be the name

[floral yew]

I'm there now and I don't see anything about controls

[woven magnet]

It's around somewhere

Advance settings?

[floral yew]

Nope nothing there

[woven magnet]

It should be in the top right like dynamic bones was

Not in the same menu though

[tropic crater]

it should be called bindings next to advanced

[woven magnet]

Ty

[floral yew]

Okay found it

How do I change the controls?

[tropic crater]

no idea sorry, never done it

[floral yew]

There's no options

[woven magnet]

Pick the button you want to edit

And pick what action you want it to do

There's bubbles with lines leading to the buttons they will edit

[floral yew]

I'm clicking the dsaw and there's nothing happening

[woven magnet]

Wasd huh

You're on pc

Ya no idea then

[floral yew]

Okay guess I'm locked to those controls

[woven magnet]

I can give you some pointers like r being for the radial menu

[floral yew]

Hmmm before it was going 10-20 fps but now it's 30-40 fps so I guess the advice worked

[woven magnet]

Nice!

That's normal vrc frames

[tropic crater]

mhm

[woven magnet]

A lot of worlds are locked to 30 or 40 frames

[floral yew]

Okay entering the black cat now before it used to lag like crazy but maybe now it will stop

[woven magnet]

Awesome

[unreal verge]

I've max safety settings in vr

Except if world is low populated

[woven magnet]

I just have the normal on

[tropic crater]

not sure if i use default

[unreal verge]

I use custom

[floral yew]

Oh no its now going to 16-17 fps what's happening

[woven magnet]

Tons of people maybe

What are you running in the pc department

[unreal verge]

Networking uses resources in udon worlds

[woven magnet]

Ya

Once everyone is loaded it should be better

[unreal verge]

My own world has decent networking

[vocal shard]

I’m getting 90 fps that is when there’s not more than 30 people in a room

[tropic crater]

desktop or vr?

[vocal shard]

me? vr

[unreal verge]

90fps in vr is very good

[vocal shard]

people skins usually are a big factor makes fps go lower.

[tropic crater]

i get 120ish until i load in to any lobby then it drops to 50-90

[unreal verge]

I loaded 13 avatars in a friend lobby and had 30 fps (which is already insane for my hardware while using VR)

[vocal shard]

yeah I would have it set to 120 but it would just drop to 80-90 anyways

[tropic crater]

its only 120 in home anyway

[floral yew]

Huh If I set it to low performance it stops lagging
Strange

[woven magnet]

I can't wait to get back home and dial in the settings for my index 😭 ahhhh but I need sleep first dang it

[vocal shard]

lul

[floral yew]

Okay I set everything to the lowest it can be

[woven magnet]

Came later than it should have due to FedEx being dumb then being super busy when it did arrive ahhhh

Got one beatsaber map in

[floral yew]

Minimum performance rank: very poor
Maximum avatar download size: 5mb

And the other 2 is off

[tropic crater]

grats on the index 👀

[woven magnet]

Minimum should not be very poor lmao

[unreal verge]

5mb is lower than Quest

[unreal verge]

Doesn't matter at 5mb anymore lmao

[floral yew]

So should I set it to normal?

[woven magnet]

True

Set it to like 15

[floral yew]

okay

[unreal verge]

Rip my avatars are 18

[woven magnet]

Yep

[floral yew]

and should I set it to very poor to poor?

[woven magnet]

Just has to manually show them

[unreal verge]

Poor Yeah

[floral yew]

okay so the lag should stop right?

[woven magnet]

Set it to one better than poor of you're having issues

[floral yew]

Okay

[woven magnet]

I think you'd have more luck with a quest 2 standalone

Lol

[unreal verge]

Lots of people use max safety (custom safety but every avatar except friends disabled) anyways

[floral yew]

I'm still having issues here now it's locked to 29-30

[woven magnet]

That's normal

As I said most worlds are locked to 30-40 fps

[floral yew]

but the world I was just in was 11fps

It was that bad

[woven magnet]

Well I mean max

Then go into custom and turn off all avatars but friends and only show avatars of people you are talking to

[floral yew]

Okay let's go to medium performance

[unreal verge]

That's what i do (the max custom setting)

[floral yew]

will it work now?

[woven magnet]

I don't know

Only you can see

[tropic crater]

nothing can really be guaranteed but it should help

[unreal verge]

Yeah only max safety is guaranteed

Since you don't load any avatars

[floral yew]

If I set it to the lowest will it work or not?

[unreal verge]

After that it would be dependent on networking and the world

Again: only max safety is guaranteed

Even medium performance avatars or better can destroy performance

[floral yew]

okay on max safety now

and now it's on poor
Hopefully it should help

[unreal verge]

If you run max safety the only thing that can affect performance is the world and networking

[vocal shard]

If it’s a big hassle just trying to play the game normally I’d stick with desktop til your hardware is upgraded.

[floral yew]

Alright so now it's at poor 15MB shield level max

[woven magnet]

Why still poor

Smh

[unreal verge]

If you run max safety you can safely set your download limit up to like 70 MB and very poor

[woven magnet]

And we said friend's only on all but voice right

[floral yew]

Okay il give it a try

[woven magnet]

Octo no

[unreal verge]

Yeah do this only if friends only

[woven magnet]

They have default max

Not custom max

[floral yew]

Wait how do I set it to friends only?

Is it in settings?

[unreal verge]

Go custom and disable avatar for each rank except friends

[woven magnet]

Go to custom under safety settings and turn off everything but voice for any role that isn't a friend

So visitor, new user, user, known user, trusted user should all be voice only

Friends should probably be everything

[floral yew]

Okay

[unreal verge]

And maybe user icon allowed

[woven magnet]

Ya

That too

That's new so I forgot lol

[unreal verge]

That's only there cause people might put nsfw in them

[woven magnet]

Ah

[floral yew]

Okay let's go

[vocal shard]

Guilty

🤣

[unreal verge]

Nah

[woven magnet]

Oooof

[floral yew]

Okay so I think I done it right

Okay entering a room now

Thanks for your help by the way

Uh oh

Some of the avatars arnt loading

[woven magnet]

Np

[woven magnet]

That's the point

[floral yew]

Okay

[woven magnet]

Unless they are just the blue polygons stuck on loading

In which case restart your game

[flat torrent]

Yeah then that's the point to restart the game.

If you are having trouble with that, make sure to note that when you go into a world with players and the game is still loading avatars for you, make sure all avatars are properly loaded before entering the same world with a different instance or sometimes a different world.

[unreal verge]

Wish vrchat would fix that

[flat torrent]

Because that can cause the all blue polygon loading avatars glitch to occur.

[vocal shard]

I’ve had those a couple of times already too. People’s avatar would stay loading and never load

And I usually see everyone’s avatar as soon as I enter a room xd

[flat torrent]

It depends on processors in the PC and all that shenanigans.

The amount of cores you have in your processor in the PC, that will be the number of avatars that will load in at the same time.

Example: If you have an eight-core processor, eight avatars will load in at the same time and once finished loading in that avatar, one core moves to the next player.

It's kinda interesting. I've played VRChat for over 3 years and I'm still learning new things.

[unreal verge]

My pc loads way more avatars than I've cores

[vocal shard]

^

[tropic crater]

it's likely there's more async loads happening than you have cores

[flat torrent]

Hmmm. Interesting.

[unreal verge]

I've 2 real cores and 2 virtual ones

[tropic crater]

could be a chance it just just fires them all up at once and it balances out

[flat torrent]

I guess it's different now with new updates and all that sorta stuff.

Not that I know if that was a fact or not. I'm just guessing. 😆

[tropic crater]

you can also have multiple tasks running on a single thread, it just wont be all parallel

[unreal verge]

Loading too much avatars at once is bad for performance for me. My game usually freezes for a while then

[tropic crater]

i assume that would be blocking tasks that have to happen when the result moves from a different thread to the game thread

[unreal verge]

Since i use OculusVR instead of SteamVR I've way more room though

Never would i be able to load 13 avatars on SteamVR and still have 30 fps on my 750ti

[tropic crater]

god bless async loads

[unreal verge]

Nah, i had to wait a bit on spawn until game stabilized again

[tropic crater]

theres also possibly a hitch during decompression

[unreal verge]

30fps after loading finished, 0 during loading lol

But i don't complain, having 30fps with 13 avatars visible at the same time on a 750ti is pretty good

[tropic crater]

mhm

pretty sure 900 series was the first series to get the label of vr support

pretty good that a 700 series is holding up

[unreal verge]

In SteamVR even 8 avatars would be already dead end

But with OculusVR I've more overhead

[tropic crater]

would love for steamvr improvements

most of all a fix for the vram allocation issues

[unreal verge]

I'll have to use SteamVR soon again though, cause i want SlimeVR trackers

Oculus doesn't have FBT support sadly

[tropic crater]

if only there was more options for what software to run

i have to deal with the subpar pitool and steamvr

[unreal verge]

I'm gonna disable all tools in SteamVR though

Like i don't need to run OVR and stuff

My avatars have that shit built in anyways lol

[tropic crater]

not sure what the overhead is over that stuff honestly

[unreal verge]

OVR i don't think much

But Overlays that display the desktop need some performance for sure

[tropic crater]

yeah i recently uninstalled desktop+ just in case it would help

the built in one for steamvr has the features i wanted now anyway

[unreal verge]

Even running with no tools and only vanilla SteamVR gave me around 10-15 less fps sadly

[tropic crater]

jeez

i wonder how steamvr handles parallel projection by default or if its a setting

couldnt find it on my end and after disabling through pitool i got 50+ fps boost

[woven magnet]

It'll be nice when ovrtool kit features are just a part of steamvr

[tropic crater]

eventually

stinky valve

[woven magnet]

What do you mean?

Valve bae

[tropic crater]

just messing around

[mortal quartz]

hi

[vocal shard]

What is the up.

[sudden carbon]

Nothing

Much

[bold sapphire]

uhh uwu

[vocal shard]

certified ツ moment

[regal furnace]

thats not very nice of you

[vocal shard]

does the official quest 1/2 link charge your vrheadset while playing pcvr or is that just with some offbrands?

[noble depot]

The official link cable doesn't charge your headset iirc, it's an optical fiber cable

still don't know what the benefit of doing that is, besides being a selling point/marketing thing?

[vocal shard]

so it can't even charge at all

ooouu look fiber optic cable it must mean its good right

[noble depot]

I mean theoretically if you needed a stupidly long link cable, an optical cable could help with latency

except that the Oculus link cable is like 16ft

[ruby needle]

Still has powerlines, the data is send over the optical part.

And the main benefit is, that the lenght is technically out of spec for the USB standards and could cause issues with normal cables.

[vocal shard]

Is THat A MeMe in GegErAl

BENNED

[solid pumice]

heya,does someone wanna hang out and chill with me ? in roof of the rain #36495 public,fell free to join

[foggy seal]

I might.

[noble depot]

o heck, nevermind o:

I'd still say that fiber optics are a little overkill for a 16ft cable, though I guess it's cheaper/less bulky than using a powered i.e non-passive USB cable

[loud void]

anyone use soundpad?

[vocal shard]

Uh

[tropic crater]

Uhh

[quick dagger]

Hey

[sharp saddle]

[vocal shard]

heyooooooo

[autumn abyss]

Yeah what’s up I use it

[hot glade]

anyone want to play vrchat?

[glossy ember]

not rn just go into public black cat you’ll find some friends there

[hot glade]

oki thanks for the help! 🙂

[loud void]

Yo how do I change tthe sound of it?

Like the volume that people hear it as

Pls dm me when u respond ty

[buoyant thorn]

I'm getting a problem with vrchat and I can't even load up the game anymore

can anyone help

[noble depot]

What platform are you on, and what's specifically happening when you try to launch the game? o: (i.e can you get past the login screen, does it crash immediately before that, etc)

[buoyant thorn]

So I have a pc and play on an index and when I play on the index it just loads me into the game and immediately back into steam vr. And when i do it from the pc it flashes i think the words were like vrchat installer with the vrchat logo but with 2 red lines on the top left

It shows me to join my home world but no further than that

[noble depot]

Does it crash before or after you have the chance to hit Go? o:

[buoyant thorn]

no it crashes when I hit go

[amber juniper]

as FPaul said, the length is an issue. Because if you use such high frequencies there is a lot of interference. (Just look up how long a Cat 6 cable works with 10GBit in comparison against Cat 6a, same problematic)

[noble depot]

kk - Try reinstalling VRChat if you haven't already? Clearing the cache manually might help if the cached home world corrupted or something too - head to C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat and delete everything there, except for the config.json file and the output log .txt files if you have them

Otherwise, def contact #vrchat-support o:

[autumn abyss]

You change your in game vrchat mic level from 100% to 20 or 15 to make it easy to hear for them

[amber juniper]

it's not overkill if it's needed for a reliable connection ;)

[buoyant thorn]

I literally deleted the game and formatted the drive with it and its still messed up and my home is the room of rain

im going to try the file thing

[noble depot]

will def look into that more, sounds interesting o:
I don't have a Quest so I def can't say for sure, but I don't think I've heard of any problems with third-party link/USB cables when it comes to data integrity/interference at the end? def heard lots of build quality issues though lol

then again, USB C cables past 10 feet aren't super common from what I've seen, and that's not too far out of spec from the USB standard iirc? at least compared to 16 feet

[loud void]

No but I use it on other games to

[amber juniper]

well, 3.1 Gen 2 has a max length of 1 meter (by specification)

[autumn abyss]

There is no universal way other than you change manually your mic volume on each game you wish to play

[amber juniper]

it can maybe run the full bandwidth, on a longer cable, but it's not guaranteed.

[noble depot]

iirc 3.1 gen 1's max length is 3 meters/~9 feet 10 inches, though yeah I remember hearing about 3.1 gen 2's limit

[amber juniper]

at one time, I had to connect a USB3 external harddrive to a server in a 19" Rack, and I had to go buy a shorter cable, because the harddrive dropped out with the default 1m USB cables, because of the frak ton of switching which goes on in 19" Rack ;)

it worked flawless for days with a 20cm cable

but in that case, the environment was more out of spec than the cables :P

[noble depot]

lol
I'm not sure if the Quest would strictly care about USB 3.0 signal degredation too much, since it can run on a USB 2.0 connection at a reduced refresh rate? i.e it might not need 3.1 gen 2's capabilities, just 3.1 gen 1

3.1 gen 1/USB 3.0 because USB's naming standards make Sense™

[amber juniper]

well, sure but I guess nobody wants compression artefacts ;)

[amber juniper]

yeah, I hope they drop that shit with 4.0

[noble depot]

def fair lol

[amber juniper]

I mean... it wouldn't be hard to name it 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and so on

[noble depot]

4.0, I think you mean USB 3.1 gen 2 mod 1 /s

[amber juniper]

*looks angry at Zuvali with a LART in his hands*

[buoyant thorn]

Should I try to delete like all the files and delete the app then reinstall everything because the files were saved on my other ssd?

[noble depot]

Uninstall VRChat completely, including it's cache location (C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\VRChat\vrchat by default, even if the game's files are stored on a different drive) and reinstall o:

[buoyant thorn]

I reported it to the thing but even deleting cleaning he cache and including my location it still doesn't work

thanks for the help tho

[loud void]

is there any way i can hear what they hear? like play it back?

[vocal shard]

hi

[noble depot]

hi! c:

[meager solstice]

@loud void maybe try discord’s playback?

[autumn abyss]

Sadly no unless you have a friend who can share his/her audio live back to you other than that you are shooting a wild shot

[vocal shard]

I swear if you look around in sound settings there is a playback thing that lets you hear what your inputting into your mic

It happened to me and I was so confused

the og sound settings

[wispy crater]

Yo im about to try setting up a vrchat date with this girl, but shes on quest so I gotta find some cute and pretty quest worlds. Does any of you know of some?

[vocal shard]

Hi?

[twin fractal]

you could try using the world search site https://en.vrcw.net/category/detail/oculusquest_ready

[wispy crater]

Oh, I actually didnt know this was a thing

[pliant epoch]

So besides the fact that setting up a date with someone in VRchat is a terrible idea maybe midnight rooftop. I don't know many "cute and pretty" worlds that are quest compatible as I mainly Use PC only worlds.

[vocal shard]

[wispy crater]

I use mostly pc worlds too, so its a bit of a faff finding good quest worlds 😛 but wether if its a good idea or not depends on who we are rite? its not our first time together, just something we wanna try

[vocal shard]

I think I'm going off, cause I don't want to annoy people by making them answer me or something. Have a good time i guess

[pliant epoch]

If it's not your first time together then it might be a good idea.

[twin fractal]

I've had many good dates on vrc.. not sure what they're on about lol

[wispy crater]

Yeah ive had a few really nice ones too, but only with pc users ^^ damn the fact that the quest makes things complicated

[inland knot]

ive been a visitor for like 20 hours now, added several people, and favorited a bunch of worlds and avatars, how the fuck do i become a "new user" so i can upload some avatars

[noble depot]

Do you have a VRChat account? o:

[minor ice]

I'm still on visitor after 6 months and with a VRChat account lol

I have like... 10 friends too

[sharp saddle]

It's not time-based.

Also, favoriting worlds and avatars don't count toward your rank.

[vocal shard]

if they do the change is so small it might as well not matter

[whole hazel]

puh

[covert spade]

Or at least, I sent them a request

[burnt shuttle]

😅 😂

[covert spade]

They sent one at the same time as I did, so I think it went well. Honestly, I'm still just shaking off the nerves. My Japanese is shoddy at best

My only advantage was that he spoke a little English too.

[whole hazel]

I am sure that that willbe a cool friendship

japanese culture is hella interesting yk

[covert spade]

I agree. Here's hoping it does go well.

so viveport says that vrchat is compatible with the vive focus.... is that actually true? Isn't that an android device? (https://www.viveport.com/7cb925da-4bc7-4e88-b42c-b78848018949)

[noble depot]

The Quest is an Android device, and VRChat's compatible with that o:

afaik though yes, VRChat has a Focus build

[unique perch]

I remember they had the quest beta on focus, I thought they disabled that

would it just show you as being on quest in-game?

[vocal shard]

Yeah vive focus appears as quest

[unique perch]

sweet. I may get a focus 3 then, pending outside reviews. Been waiting for a not-quest standalone for a while.

[regal furnace]

its more than an index though

even more than a vive pro 2 with index controller and basestations

[unique perch]

can't carry the index around on trips

[regal furnace]

oh, guess thats true

[unique perch]

also wireless

[rancid jewel]

just become the computer

[unique perch]

I say that but I have taken my og vive + basestations and tripods in my backpack and carried my 50 lb desktop tower across campus before so it's possible

[rancid jewel]

oh lord

[regal furnace]

sounds like something i would do

i still need a 3rd basestation btw

[unique perch]

we have better options these days... that was before inside out tracking was a thing

[regal furnace]

still out of stock though

[unique perch]

and htc charges more, for a slightly louder product

[rancid jewel]

puts computer on back to be able to do pcvr in a full fuckin warehouse

[regal furnace]

still maximum 10x10m with 4 basestations

[unique perch]

I had the tripods for the base stations sticking up past my head

🤔 you can almost certianly do more than 10x10 practically

[regal furnace]

ngl, if i ever get my hands on a warehouse, imma do warehouse scale vr

and nope, 10x10m is the maximum for 2.0

[unique perch]

I wanna rollerblade in a warehouse with fbt so bad

and no wires

best would be a parking lot, a backpack computer, and inside out tracked full body, but we aren't there yet

[unique perch]

have you tested that? I know that's the spec but I suspect that's a conservative spec.

[regal furnace]

i have a 2.2x2.2m playspace and thats already enough for me

and no, i only have 2 base stations

[unique perch]

for just standing and normal use you really don't need much. Locomotion is mostly by stick these days and that's great.

mine is 3x4m and honestly I don't need it all

[regal furnace]

i move a bit, but im pretty limited because of my knees

[rancid jewel]

become the base stations

[unique perch]

spinny laser finger go brrrrr

[regal furnace]

its just annoying that one leg likes to desync a bit and is lower than the other one

im really starting to think its because i only have 2 basestations

[noble depot]

having a 10x10 meter play area'd be great, could get rid of teleporting/locomotion for the most part

I also see that being super tiring after a bit so nevermind lol

[unique perch]

I remember somebody did a backpack pc + a rift s on a beach to play blade and sorcery

and he was completely out of breath quickly

[rancid jewel]

everybody gangsta until the zombie in zombie tag actually starts running irl faster than vrchats locomotion speed

[unique perch]

lol - how fast is vrc's locomotion speed? The scale always throws me off but it's gotta be pretty fast.

[rancid jewel]

i think its about like
normal human running speed

so you'd have to be pretty fast irl to move faster than a vrchat character

we gotta get a professional in on this

[regal furnace]

everybody gangster till the one guy runs faster than the worlds sprinting speed

[rancid jewel]

you tell some guy in vrchat to approach you and they actually sprint towards you

[regal furnace]

"oh you are approaching me- yo wtf why u running like usain bolt"

[noble depot]

rents out a warehouse to cheese zombie tag
runs full-speed into a pillar

[vocal shard]

renting a warehouse to play gorilla tag

[twin fractal]

Truly a gamer moment

[vocal shard]

keep renting out warehouses so that cryptominers have a harder time

[unique perch]

playing gorilla tag with a jet suit so you can fly up and tag people

[regal furnace]

no self advertising in here

[vocal shard]

beautiful

[loud parcel]

FINALLY!!! After months of not knowing what I was meant to do in order to gain access, I can finally speak here!

[sharp saddle]

[regal furnace]

you have to do something to gain access here?

[loud parcel]

Allow me to introduce myself! Hello everyone! I've been interested in this game ever since ||the infamy of Gregzilla and tidiestflyer became popular||.

[loud parcel]

Accept the rules and terms of agreement.

[regal furnace]

oh

[loud parcel]

Anyways, though it's been a few years since the meme "died", I was still interested in all the things I could do. And (a few months ago) once I learned the game is both free and doesn't require a VR headset, I just had to download it to join the fun!

[regal furnace]

how many years ago was that?

[sharp saddle]

Was that before or after the Knuckles invasion?

[regal furnace]

2017/18?

[sharp saddle]

I joined during the height of the Knuckles thing in Jan. 2018.

[regal furnace]

i joined in the aftermath sometime around may 2018

[sharp saddle]

At that time, though, I had no idea how to use VRChat.

[regal furnace]

some of my best memories are from 2018

[sharp saddle]

Thought you were limited to the public avatars given to you.

[regal furnace]

nah, i knew about the uploading already

never really cared about it (wasnt good with avatars anyway)

now im admin and supporter on a avatar support discord 🤷

[sharp saddle]

Congrats.

[regal furnace]

or rather Codes server to be exact

[vocal shard]

sounds exclusive

[regal furnace]

he sells some avatars on booth and has a support discord for them

[hushed mural]

I have been having issues witj social status for a few days, probably a week, if i swithc from blue to orange, after a few mins i see my statua back to blue, i have to be manually checking my social status every minute to make sure it stays where i want, then when it finally stabilizes, when i want to return to blue, it keeps switching baxk to orange, how can i fix that?

[vocal shard]

slow down on switching your statuses and let the api take its time, its acting really special this month

if it doesnt change after like 30m try again dont do it so frequently

[hushed mural]

I keep changing it because it keeps reverting to a status i dont want to be in.
