I dont wanna buy nintendo consoles. I wanna play pokemon

glossy flicker
#

oh sick

bronze anchor
#

Just emulate the Nintendo pkmn games
All others ain't really worth it

glossy flicker
#

why pokemon
modern pokemon games are shit

bronze anchor
#

Just play black or white first
Then go for the sequel

nimble apex
glossy flicker
#

oh you wanna play old pokemon games

#

im sure there's like thousands of tutorials on youtube at this point

glossy flicker
stuck crest
#

just right click that message next time oclac, they said that we should resort to doing that next time

nimble apex
#

I wanna play all of em rlly except sun n moon

#

idk what emulators are or a rom

glossy flicker
#

okay
rom are the game files
and emulator is basically the software that pretends to be a console

#

and you can open roms with an emulator

nimble apex
#

scary

glossy flicker
# nimble apex scary

unfortunately nintendo likes to take down roms for games they don't even sell anymore, while other companies dont. so you have to go through shady websites to get nintendo roms

nimble apex
#

im not shady

glossy flicker
# nimble apex im not shady

i mean if you want to you can get one of those cartridge readers and buy an original pokemon cartridge for over 100$

nimble apex
#

fuck that

glossy flicker
#

emulation is legal
downloading ROMs isn't so that's completely legal

nimble apex
#

well I stay on the legal end lad

glossy flicker
#

okay no emulation for you then lol, unless you wanna buy decade old games the devs don't even profit off of anymore

#

so it's really a grey area of ethics

nimble apex
#

illegal shit aint worth doing. at that point its better to get it official.

glossy flicker
#

i don't think a single person has been arrested for emulating

#

or piracy which downloading roms falls on
the only people who get arrested are the people who publicly share the files
leeches are the ones that get away no problem

#

but like don't pirate
im talking about the grey area of games that don't make money anymore

weary tusk
nimble apex
#

why would anyone get that stuff..

#

windows is top tier-

weary tusk
#

ask the huge hackintoshing community why

nimble apex
#

but its the same for games. Buy it from steam... or just download free online. Difference is the free one wont be multiplayer and will get outdated at some point

weary tusk
#

a successful hackintosh can be updated just like a mac
and i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but windows sucks for everything except gaming

nimble apex
#

eh...

#

thats really not true

weary tusk
#

audio design and art is leagues better on macOS, programming is great on linux, and gaming is great on windows
other than that, windows is basically useless

nimble apex
#

none of those things have to do with the os

crystal fractal
#

i do lots of 2d & 3d work on windows. it seems fine?

nimble apex
#

ye

#

Its just softwares to download lol

weary tusk
#

fun fact, steve jobs made the macOS programmers integrate audio manipulation and design directly into the mach kernel

nimble apex
#

good job. I'll stick to Adobe and Audacity

weary tusk
#

basically, macOS audio is low latency out of the box iirc

glossy flicker
#

my friendship has ended with Adobe
now gimp and davinci resolve are my friends

weary tusk
#

so macOS makes my musician brain extremely happy

crystal fractal
#

Adobe is kinda greedy af but their software is still like industry standard and ez to use for so many things

crystal fractal
glossy flicker
#

Adobe being industry standard is truly cringe

#

when free programs like davinci resolve exist

nimble apex
#

you know what I dont get

#

Editing softwares would make so much more cash if they didnt put watermark on teh finished video...

#

Instead they put it and make you pay. Except then they lose customers

weary tusk
#

will be honest though, one thing keeping me from switching to windows is the horrid programming experience
first you gotta go to the website, get the installer, install it, you're done right?
wrong
then you have to add all of the tools to the path, then integrate it into your editor, pray to the GODS that it works, and if it doesn't? fuck you i guess
linux? one command, done
or you can use the software store too

glossy flicker
#

what rditing software are you using?

crystal fractal
#

it’s tru tho. mac is also standard for creativity based stuffy but ill always use my baby windows pc ✨

nimble apex
glossy flicker
#

yes i do editing as a job

nimble apex
#

then yes every software ever for video editing

glossy flicker
#

did you download filmora after watching a sponsored youtube video?

nimble apex
#

They sponsor ppl?

glossy flicker
#

yes

weary tusk
#

have you used blender for video editing

nimble apex
#

then no bc who tf ever accepts sponsor from filmora

nimble apex
glossy flicker
weary tusk
glossy flicker
nimble apex
#

youtubers I watch dont accept deals from just anyone. They only accept if its a genuine good product for people.

#

and if they would use it or not.

#

aka an editing software with watermark. If they wouldnt use it. They aint acceptin it

glossy flicker
#

yeah, there's way better free editing software with no watermarks

nimble apex
#

b e t

glossy flicker
#

shotcut, hitfilm express, davinci resolve

nimble apex
#

I swear those r bad

glossy flicker
#

they are not

#

shotcut kind of its old

#

hitfilm and resolve are really good shit though

nimble apex
#

Hitfilm has watermarks.

glossy flicker

It's Real's slogan cirBox

nimble apex

So I can say Norwegian company slogans?

worldly vessel
#

If the company name comes up in a context that it makes sense to continue with it... which likely will be never... then i guess?

nimble apex
#

Whos "Real"...

#

and I mean the context rn is slogans

sick bloom
#

some german company probably

worldly vessel
#

Yup

#

Big Grocery stores, actually

nimble apex

What the hell did a German Grocery store slogan have to do with editing softwares-

worldly vessel

Ask don. cirBox

nimble apex
#

I just realised someone who was here who said lots of crap on the anime My Hero Academia bc Deku keeps saying he wants to become a hero...

Everyone loves komi san and pokemon and they keep saying the same shiz in every opening and outro... reeee

glossy flicker
#

mha is cringe gotta agree

nimble apex
#

it aint. Just the dubbed version and community

glossy flicker
#

yeah true
the bakugo thirst ruined it more than anything else

nimble apex
#

japanese version does bakugo way better

#

mostly because the Dubbed version decides to hire the fuckin voice actor as Directors of the dubs

glossy flicker
#

people who watch dubs are truly cringe

nimble apex
#

indeed

glossy flicker
#

like, do people actually expect a good performance from someone who's entire role is to copy someone else from a culture with entirely different mannerisms and then try to condense those sentences so the timings fit

nimble apex
#

Tru

#

and they do it badly

#

Theres a reason the original Voice actors for japanese were chosen. They were what the creator wanted for his characters

glossy flicker
#

yes

glossy flicker
#

a youtuber i watch so even more funny

nimble apex
#

Jojo is meant to not be taken seriously so I can see why they did that

#

I mean for an anime thats supposed to be dumb in both horrible voicing and story. Yes good casting

glossy flicker
#

nah jojo part 6 is alot more serious than other parts
and they didn't just get the youtuber because he's a youtuber
he's actually trying to get a career in va

nimble apex
#

he better be good then

glossy flicker
#

i don't even know if the performance is good because all my monkey brain can think of is
"that's the youtuber i watch"

nimble apex
#

sad

#

Big happy tho. pewds finally lives in japan with that one anime review guy

glossy flicker
#

yeah getting a permanent visa for japan is a basically impossible

nimble apex
#

eh

glossy flicker
#

he would've married the anime guy if he had to

nimble apex
#

no its for 5 years im pretty sure

glossy flicker
nimble apex
#

you can live any country for 5 years I believe or depending on which country

#

I dont know what he got. He could have. He didnt talk about it

#

its just something I remembered about a friend who went to the us

glossy flicker
nimble apex
#

hm

#

pewds has a job online so how would that work

#

maybe its the Tsuki merch brand thats japanese?

glossy flicker
#

yeah maybe that counts

nimble apex
#

He and Marzia did make Tsuki so maybe its japanese and counts as japan work

#

my goodness. You can just start a brand in Japan without living in Japan. Then just move in

glossy flicker
#

true, you cracked the code my friend
i shall now start my metaverse housing scheme in japan

nimble apex
#

oh no

#

sell A.I Waifus for your desktop or VRChat

glossy flicker
#

yes

#

there's some people im sure who are constantly on the lookout for Japanese women so they can marry and get citizenship in japan

just u feel like that

what makes it even worse is that bakugo is the worst 2 dimensional character i've ever seen in a story, every villan has been more likable than bakugo

bold void

yeah he used to bullied deku lmao

#

we cannot denied that

glossy flicker

his entire thing is being an poopyhead bully
there's no more to the character than that

#

not even a well written bully
because that would actually be good story telling

the au just grow his power and the storyline too much that the aud forgot that he used to be a bully

apriltrackers can be good, but the tracking quality will depend very heavily on the camera you're using

#

a camera with a higher refresh rate, lower latency, and higher resolution will be better - should probably focus on the first two, considering a 480p Playstation Eye reportedly works well

i see so its not just some cheap knock offs

Otherwise, YouTube replaced TV for me

O know someone said options are limited

But atleast an upscaler?

tranquil quarry
#

upvote the canny for it

brazen basalt
#

Still not sure what options youre asking for.

unreal imp
#

Yeah, really the onus is on people with poly/physics heavy avatars. 4 gigs is fine for vrchat as long as the avatars are pretty simple.

tranquil quarry
#

but I'm guessing the current version of unity can't do it

brazen basalt
#

Afaik we cant magically reduce polycount on other people's avatars 😛

tranquil quarry
#

still they are going to have to move to 2020 pretty sure, not sure if that one supports fsr

tranquil quarry
brazen basalt

considering the headache/uproar of moving to 2019, it probably wouldnt happen soon.

tranquil quarry
brazen basalt
#

I dont think you understand lol

tranquil quarry
#

well, unless you plan to ignore the 2019 death

#

are you?

brazen basalt
#

So...according to you, our only two options are "magically upgrade an entire version in a month" or 'ignore it entirely"?

tranquil quarry
#

lol

brazen basalt
#

I hate conjectural argument points. It's a bad way to make a point.

tranquil quarry
#

or you can upgrade but not magically I never said that

lofty terrace
#

Ww3 is going down in this channel

brazen basalt
#

Hardly. This is an old argument. :p

tranquil quarry
#

but vrchat so far has upgraded unity versions when the current LTS is completely dead, and 2019's turn is pretty soon, so I'd guess there might be a plan to upgrade to 2020 along with that

brazen basalt

Game development is challenging, especially when it's an active ecosystem. Best to let the developers keep to their roadmap and figure it out. Leaking is problematic because scheduled updates get delayed, better to not have expectations out there.

brazen basalt
#

If we have something to make public, it will be made public through the same channels it's always been in.

tranquil quarry
#

I think it's good to have expectations

vrchat did the "summer 2021" for avatar dynamics and then waited a year, that was very sad to see indeed though.
But that doesn't mean as a developer you just get to not say anything and then maybe stay silent for 2 years with no updates (not talking about vrchat just as a hypothetical company) because then your game becomes abandonware

chrome turtle

I have 0 devs added but a ton of mutuals

Exactly, and making a commitment here would be absolutely no different. Hell, I contribute to a couple open source projects and when the user base thinks something is promised they turn rabid when they don't get it. User suggestions are great, feedback is great, but leaks are terrible for everyone. But I'm just some old country lawyer.

I think you're taking it to a different level I never said this is the worst thing in my life or something similar

unreal imp

Well then, carry on lol. I don't have a dog in this fight.

brazen basalt
#

We're hardly alone in saying what you've said here, most gamedev teams have similar issues. It's very difficult to promise anything you're not sure of, because that is just asking to set up bad expectations and no trust. :/

tranquil quarry
#

it's not a fight tho, sache is a pretty cool guy and doesn't afraid of anything

brazen basalt
#

also

sinful scaffold
# brazen basalt Still not sure what options youre asking for.

FSR 2.0, anti-aliasing,
texture quality (i know this is limited, but please if any way shape or form if possible, if not, that's fine, let this one slide),
limit shaders (you can disable it on avatars, but you can't disable it for your avatar).
And ofcourse, resolution.

Theres not much you can do, I understand but this is why performance mods really should be allowed. It's not fair with people who need just a little more optmization just to play the game.

Not sure what you mean, but lets say i were to mod in a verified upscaler to vr chat. Works as it says and is not harmful to me or vrchat in any way, how does that justify a ban?

not by vrchat surely

yes but what does that have to do with disbelief over my playtime lol, im confused

Not to mention a bug free mod is about as easy to find as bigfoot playing a polybius machine.

and i wasnt one to micromanage children anyway lul

Completely different situation. Text chats are controlled, manageable. I'm not overwhelmed by audio sources and screaming people

also playing vrchat kinda needs a whole lot more attention than discord

When I do go in to play not by myself, its almost always in small controlled groups.

tranquil quarry

you can't do that much lots of other things while playing vrchat

brazen basalt
#

people can record what you say too, whats your point lol

#

And?

#

I've been in the gaming industry about 12 years now, and in all that time, I've had something I said thrown back in my face a grand total of twice.

tranquil quarry

I know that anything I say will be copied and repeated, so I choose what I say very deliberately. :p

I would like to have thousands of hours in vrchat too but I got other stuff to do

brazen basalt

Not at all. I'm perpetually candid.

Alright, back to the salt mines. I need to get SDK access so I can start enjoying vrchat. Y'all have a good night and if you know the secret to avoiding the middle schoolers let me know.

It's easier than being subversive. 😄

brazen basalt

#

The main issue isn't what people say, it's how they say it.

#

There are some key things to avoid, no matter how honest you are:

Never attack someone's character, assume everyone has (at worst) neutral intent until definitively proven otherwise, and don't assume the other person/people are stupid.

#

I see a lot of people falter on that last point especially, taking stances from the position of a pedestal talking down to plebian commoners like they're the universe's gift to humanity.

#

Forgetting youre just as human as everyone else is a bad place to end up. 😛

tranquil quarry
#

tru

brazen basalt
#

That's been my core position for years: I'm not better than anyone else. How can I be? What would make me "better" than anyone?

I mean being neutral is a given when you are part of the team?

Wow, I've got a banana-colored name and collect a paycheck. Most people collect paychecks. Why am I better for that XD

But if you insist on dragging this beaten-to-paste horse out for another round of clubbings:

Mods cant be vouched without a lot of people-hours and headcount we just plain don't have. It can't scale. Volunteers are out of the question, there's no accountability. Mods almost never consider what they're changing/breaking, which we have to consider.

#

The list goes on and on, but suffice it to say this wasn't an impulse decision. It's teamwide, it's unanimous.

#

In the future, it might be a good idea to try taking your stance without all the caustic hyperbole. Makes arguing the point a lot easier. 😄

#

I get it's easy to think mods are harmless if you don't see what we see. But I promise you they are not.

#

Are there improvements we can make to VRC core? Sure, plenty of them. Most are being considered, and anything considered has to be balanced against the massive list of things that need doing in any given quarter. Priorities get formed, things happen when they happen, same as most development cycles. ^_^

sinful scaffold
#

Look man, I was trying to have a decent conversation, maybe trying to change your minds to make the user experience better, or change mind, making me see something I didn't see before.

But since you insist on just saying, "It's TOS, it's just that simple". I don't think you like to be clear and contrast with the community, and that's honestly sad. I won't conversate on this anymore, goodbye.

brazen basalt

I've been excessively clear here. Sorry you're not seeing it.

and yet

#

AMD FSR has been used by people in VRChat already afaik. Pretty sure it doesnt modify the client, last I checked

fast pelican
brazen basalt
#

yea heard similar

fast pelican
#

its similar to changing any other driver settings

tranquil quarry
#

Apparently Unity still doesn't support FSR2.0 so that's why it's very unlikely there will be any official support for a while

brazen basalt
#

not sure about that one tbh, havent been keeping up with it

#

im sure someone in here is tho

balmy lion
#

What even is FSR? Thonk

#

I know it's an AMD thing but, like, that's all I know.

tranquil quarry
balmy lion
#

Ah, so it's their answer to DLSS.

tranquil quarry
#

FSR 2.0 is super new, and vrchat is still on unity 2019 so maybe in a few years

tranquil quarry

#

Something I have yet to experience.

fast pelican
#

my next card will likely be Nvidia anyway. I want CUDA for some GPGPU stuff.

#

5700 XT will stay in the system for other use most likely, as I should be able to power the 5700 XT + any Nvidia card given the 1,250W PSU

sinful scaffold
brazen basalt
#

maybe

fast pelican
brazen basalt
#

Not sure how you mean "add FSR to VRChat", that isnt how it works afaik.

fast pelican
#

Its the same as forcing HDR on games, it just makes the game render differently

#

Hi

fast pelican
#

incidentally, that's a Windows 11 feature lol

sinful scaffold
#

As opposed to DLSS

#

Or RSR, which is driver based

fast pelican
#

which automatically makes it not equivalent to DLSS, at all. Kind of misleading to advertise that it is.

stoic vigil
#

man i had to scroll up to read all of this wtf happened lmfao

Both upscale from a lower res to achieve somewhat naitve quality

Yes, but AMD's version won't work at all in many places DLSS will.

A 2060 isn’t bad. I have a 3060 laptop that more or less performs exactly the same as a desktop 2060

If you want to do higher frames ig, sure. What are your needs exactly?

#

Some more VRAM would definitely help in VR

tranquil quarry
#

I have a laptop 2070, for VR it doesn't get great fps

jovial marsh
#

My 3060 laptop runs half life alyx at high settings @ 90fps. I did flash the bios for +20W more tdp and +200mhz core + +200mhz mem overclock in afterburner

#

Virtual desktop SSW helps to get to 90fps too

hollow river

wont hit a constant 144 in vrc with an index

but then again, due to the sheer amount of eboy avatars, nothing can

balmy lion

How high of specs? 👀

#

Also, >3080 for 800

#

Ha! Not a chance in hell you're getting it that cheap.

jovial marsh
#

Tbh I have kinda low standards for performance. Forgot people could even want fps that high

#

3080’s are great. I can definitely recommend an EVGA FTW3

FWIW

jovial marsh

I have like 4

balmy lion

Miner? 👀

jovial marsh
#

These run better than any other 3080’s I have

past trail
#

I went to an Orion the other day with like 34 people, no performance limiter (lotta Poor ava's) I have a 5950x/RTX3090 and 64GB 3400MT DDR4 and I bounced around 40-80fps depending on where I looked @ native rez on Valve Index.

#

Same system I'll go to like minigolf with 20 people and smooth sailing at 144hz

#

It almost feels like performance in this "game" is entirely dependent on other people making their avatars run properly lol - That being said, going to worlds with just friends and such is your best performance gain per dollar imo heh

jovial marsh
#

I kinda wish a 6x GPU SLI was possible, just for the experience

(yes)

I don’t just use them for mining but yes. Also AI

#

I get great performance in every single other application, its just VRC that wrecks me cuz peoples avatars might as well be mining on my hardware in the background lol

#

I rarely (knock on wood) crash in adobe applications anymore, I can keep all my various apps open without having to save quit reopen and actually make use of the interoperable workflows available (sure couldnt do that back in college on those public PCs haha) Hell, I was downscaling and converting video clips to gifs the other day while I still have FF14 open in Limsa and my system didnt even break a sweat, its really just this game 🤷‍♂️

empty gust
#

well ye but old GPU go brr

jovial marsh
#

It’s nice when set to auto. If it’s not needed it turns off

bronze anchor
#

Also i take it you meant that asynch reprojection as normal vr reprojection is just kneecapping the max frames at half the normal (45 for 90hz headsets)

jovial marsh
#

what

bronze anchor
#

Asynchronous reprojection does what you said, it tries to boost the fps on older GPUs by predicting stuff with the motion sensor

jovial marsh
#

Well this is synchronous reprojection it’s done on the quest 2 headset not the PC

#

it’s not just for older gpus

bronze anchor
#

SteamVr reprojection does it different where it locks your fps at 45 but while does so also uses Asynchronous reprojection to make it still look smoother then actual 45

#

This gets done become a unstable fps does not work well with motion sickness and the Asynchronous projections

bronze anchor
jovial marsh
#

It’s kinda different than anything steamvr or oculus airlink uses

#

The primary fps gain is because your PC doesn’t have to waste resources processing motion

#

It’s all done on the headset’s own GPU

You can get Vive trackers now and afterwards if tundra ever sells stuff buy super dongles only

Still, it's not just one because their 7-superdongle turned out to be shit and they basically discontinued it
