quest-general

[tacit scarab]

Ok thank you

[hidden saddle]

I can't with the stuttering rn lol
It's actually making VRChat kinda unplayable

[haughty coyote]

Actually tho💀

[merry cosmos]

Have you guys try doing it on Beta?

[warm pebble]

Frame stuttering again

[merry cosmos]

Oh

[solid cairn]

Why'd they bring the lag update back bruh

[royal flume]

Anyone else get the frame rate issue back?

Mine only stops when I restart my headset and that only lasts an hour or so

[haughty coyote]

My one friend has it happen to her every time she enters the game and it doesn’t end so I think it’s different for everyone

[dreamy ledge]

they should've delayed it bc considering its happening again there must be something hidden causing the issue that needs lots of time to find

but idk that's just me

[royal flume]

Facts

[obtuse lintel]

Anyone with a quest 3 know if the MOJOXR comfort elite strap is good and worth it?

also is the kiwi link cable for quest 3 good too? if anyone has it

[exotic pike]

uh.. someone help me please?

left of avatar is working high jump but why right of avatar dosn't working high jump?

that dragon is only can do one jump
it was working high jump yesterday

how can i fix that dragon?

uh... hello?

[gray kiln]

Gotta be patient for a response

[exotic pike]

k

[haughty coyote]

If the world works for one avatar but not the other, it's more than likely an avatar issue and likely something no one here can address. Maybe the world ir the avatar was updated between the last time it worked and the last time you tried. Yku can try toggling the sit/stand options on and off to see if maybe that could help kick it loose, otherwise not sure what else to tell ya.

[exotic pike]

sit/stand is only can do press Z and C key
and these are that only emojis in the option of the R button.

[faint timber]

I wonder if I should get Bulletstorm VR on Quest 3 or psvr2

Tough call obviously psvr2 is still more powerful but the game also isn't cutting edge for today's world so maybe there isn't that much of a difference

There'd be an obvious difference between quest 2 and psvr2

But quest 3 hmm

[dreamy ledge]

jump height shouldn't change based on the current avatar. only if it's programmed into the world. there's a bar world that changes your run speed based on height. but as for jumping it's always the same height regardless of avatar size

[faint timber]

I also hope vr games stop requiring you to keep the left stick held down to run instead of toggle. It's so unnecessary and stupid. Looking at you green hell and thief simulator

[exotic pike]

so how can i fix that?

[blissful cove]

Big agree

[turbid kettle]

Wah

[old beacon]

hello

i need help

why is everyone muted and i see no avatars

how can i change that?

[nocturne maple]

safety settings, the shield icon in the menu

probably accidentally set it to custom or something, just change it to the default maximum prob

[warped wedge]

I'm I the only one still lagging every 5 seconds after the most recent update

I know that's why they had to revert back last time but it's seems that still hasn't been fixed I play on quest 2 btw and my 2 boyfriends are having the same problem

[nocturne maple]

I logged on last night after updating, did not notice a difference - granted, I was on very shortly and was in a world with a video player, so any lag I might have just brushed off as regular video-quest stuttering

[haughty coyote]

If it was your home world that is probably the reason you didn’t notice it

[nocturne maple]

it was not, though it was only the second world I went to

Also probably of note, I preloaded it or whatever the term is before going there. the new feature to download the world before going to the loading screen

it’s possible that either the problem/bug worses the more worlds you go to, or that it’s caused by not using the preload feature, or simply time spent with the game running maybe? or a combination. All I know is I myself did not notice more than normal quest issues

[spark path]

This update has literally saved all my faith in this game on quest. Thank you developers 🩵🙏🏻

[nocturne maple]

not sure where else to put this other than maybe the regular general channels, but eh

I should mention, this is quest 2, not quest pro, so I don’t have eye tracking. just squint based on cheeks

[royal flume]

Hhhh I cannnottttt with the gitters dude- its so often and annoying I shouldn't have to leave vrc and get back on just to stop it for 20 minutes 😭

Ridiculous

Like is there anyway around it- or is it just the update is still broken

[nocturne maple]

I’m not sure. I still have not been seeing any increase lag or stutters

[haughty coyote]

I recommend preloading your home world before getting off, then get back on because preloading worlds before going to them works for me

[nocturne maple]

^^^^^ I’ve been preloading all the worlds I go to and have my home set to vrc’s default, so maybe that’s why I haven’t seen any stuttering

[haughty coyote]

Most likely

It’s a bigger issue for some than it is for others

I might try to film it to give an example

[dreamy ledge]

I ain't trying to be rude but it seems as if the issue in its entirety was completely disregarded during development of the update

not gonna go too much into detail but the same issue is happening on pc too

[haughty coyote]

Idk if it’s noticeable but me and my friend were in my homeworld after I didn’t preload it, we were the only two

[dreamy ledge]

another issue, some audio in some worlds aren't playing at all, despite them having not been updated

world volume is up all the way

[haughty coyote]

Have you tried changing your world volume, or if the world has a toggle for the world volume

[dreamy ledge]

audio in the world's are on by default

nothing I do to world volume fixes it

only some sounds work

what the heck did they put in this update

[haughty coyote]

Yeah I’ve had a similar issue prior

I kinda noticed it stopped working in my home world

[dreamy ledge]

no like seriously what did they do aside from preloading n stuff because multiple things broke on release

[haughty coyote]

I have no clue

All I remember from the update log was PC bug fixes

But I checked the audio using the method I said and it didn’t work

This video makes the lag more obvious

[haughty coyote]

The beta version is much better

At least with the lag

[gray kiln]

How’d you get that workin

[nocturne maple]

osc

[gray kiln]

You aren’t the first person to get that to work lol

I know a few others who have it on standalone

[nocturne maple]

what, face tracking?

[gray kiln]

Both fbt and face tracking

[nocturne maple]

well, that is why I said “as far as I’m aware”; who else has face tracking on standalone?

[gray kiln]

One of my friends

And sorry didn’t hear you say the as far as I’m aware my earbuds are really quiet

[nocturne maple]

it’s fine lol

[nocturne maple]

quest pro?

[gray kiln]

No

[nocturne maple]

they use webcam too then?

or the vive face tracker?

[gray kiln]

Not sure I’d have to ask them

[nocturne maple]

ah ok. sorry if I’m asking too many questions btw I’m curious ^^'

[gray kiln]

Ur good

[surreal seal]

What type of trackers are you using? 🤔

[nocturne maple]

4 joycons, 4 phones (3 of which are older and were just spares I gathered from friends & family), and the slimevr server. In that video one of the joycons had drifted since I had last fixed em like 20 mins ago

so in total, 8 trackers. adding headset and controllers I’m pretty sure that’s 11-point tracking, but since it takes like 5 imus to get 3 vives-worth of rotational data, It’s like, a soft 11-point tracking

basically, foot+ankle+knee, hip, and chest

[trim grove]

My fps is lagging

[surreal seal]

That's cool, I use 4 joycons and a phone

[haughty coyote]

my airlink is not working it stays at 3 dots when i try to connect

[wispy drum]

What the hell happened to VRC on the quest 2

This update literally made the game unplayable

[hidden saddle]

Fr

[nocturne maple]

it unfortunately seems to only be affecting some people

[haughty coyote]

The vrc quest beta fixes it for me personally

You’ll need to save your recent avatars first tho cuz they don’t carry over

[weak relic]

I just crashed the 4 times I tried to get into Hide and Shriek, like never got in any of those times

And just recently am getting on after a week of not playing so Idk why or what's going on

Nvm, got in now

[glacial turret]

How to I get the body tracking??

[nocturne maple]

it’s meta, so it’s probably not even supposed to be in there yet. I remember getting a notification a while before the legs were even added about “leg tracking” something or other being on, but it disappeared pretty quick ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[haughty coyote]

That's a feature of the quest itself, not vrc. But seeing how quickly they implemented hand tracking, it won't be long. Pretty sure it's already in the works.

[nocturne maple]

found it; there’s a chance this is for something totally unrelated actually, reading it now. I just saw “body” and was highly confused ^^'
was taken August 15th

my bad, I may have misunderstood the question. forgot this was the vrc server for a second

[haughty coyote]

It's fine. Still a valid question.

Response, rather

Pseudo FBT with the quest has been in the works for a little while now with plans to implement with vrc.

[nocturne maple]

ye, I’m pretty excited for when it comes around. more tech/software variability allows for more innovation, etc.

[haughty coyote]

The hope is that more full featured FBT comes down in price a bit as a result as well.

[nocturne maple]

mhm

[glacial turret]

I hope vive trackers will be comp with quest

Kinda impossible but that would be great

[haughty coyote]

I mean, they are with pcvr. But I'm sure you mean standalone, which they are not as you say

[nocturne maple]

if you could somehow get the data out of steamvr and then send it over osc, theoretically it is possible. But at that point, if you have base stations and a pc that can run steamvr, probably far easier to just… play on pc

[glacial turret]

Yes I have vive trackers but I don't have a PC rn so it's kinda sad

[haughty coyote]

Oof. Rip.

[floral lagoon]

Not a VRchat question but discord question do anyone know how to fixed microphone volume mine go only to 100 that is it i can’t go higher than that ?

[old mountain]

Yeah, 100 is the max mic volume for discord

[royal flume]

So am I going to just have to preload every single word to stop the gitter issue or just suck it up until the patch?!

[fallow spruce]

crazy? 𝓘 𝔀𝓪𝓼 𝓬𝓻𝓪𝔃𝔂 𝓸𝓷𝓬𝓮. they locked me in a room, ᗩ ᖇᑌᗷᗷᗴᖇ ᖇOOᗰ. ᵃ ʳᵘᵇᵇᵉʳ ʳᵒᵒᵐ ʷⁱᵗʰ ʳᵃᵗˢ! 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕣𝕒𝕥𝕤 𝕞𝕒𝕜𝕖 𝕞𝕖 𝕔𝕣𝕒𝕫𝕪

[nocturne maple]

L(:T)J I like the preload option, less time spent in loading screens at least. I’d definitely rather sit with my friends until the world loads than be stuck in an empty green-blue void for five minutes being silently stared at by the tips board

although yeah, it’s pretty unfortunate so many people are still having to struggle with stutters even after it was reworked on

[haughty coyote]

FIX

[haughty coyote]

Damn. Thats pretty crazy.

[fallow spruce]

Ty

[haughty coyote]

[empty bolt]

Whats the slimevr server?

[nocturne maple]

it’s a pc/mobile* /quest* application that lets you connect slime trackers, or anything substituting a slime tracker, to it. it then takes the rotation data, mounting data, and proportion data, does math, and outputs full body tracking data through osc

*I don’t know how to do either of these methods personally so I can’t help with em

[light basin]

I recently bought quest 3, and I play with linkcable. The cable I have gives it power and is connected to the PC when I play with the quest 2. but with the quest 3 it does not charge them, will I have to buy another cable? Which one do you recommend if that is the case?

[long wave]

Hi I am new to vr in general I just got the quest 3 and I am wondering if someone can show me how vrchat works and what to do in vrchat

[low arch]

Any1 wanna play??

[paper flower]

I’m honestly just here for csgo videos

[static tundra]

😐

[paper flower]

Dude you gonna get us caught

I’m just here for csgo clips

I just need csgo clips

[static tundra]

[paper flower]

No I just need csgo clips

[exotic pike]

guys, if stay on a channel of one map for a long time, does that channel disappear?

[gray kiln]

Just go on YouTube

[surreal moss]

Whaddup fellow questies

[dusty kernel]

why is vrc not working

[loud ore]

it wont let me load into any worlds

it keeps saying my device has run out of memory but the cache is clear and i got a hundred gb in storage

[dusty kernel]

the game just wont load at all

[gray kiln]

Memory isn’t storage it’s RAM

There’s no real fix for it other then using more optimized Avis and worlds but 🤷‍♀️

[narrow tusk]

(Hardware)

[gray kiln]

Huh?

[narrow tusk]

In general its just hardware being outdata to run vrc more smoothly. As more newer updates get relesed.

Reason why quest is gone

[gray kiln]

Yes Ik, quest 2 gets the low memory issue cuz it doesn’t have enough RAM and the updates make it worse and worse

[narrow tusk]

🙏

Beats not being able to play

[obsidian bay]

Hello, a question about quest avatar, i have a avatar that have also quest version, but i noticed quest user will see the fallback avatar instead of my quest avatar version, any idea why?

[upper yarrow]

As quest users we need to select people and manually choose to display their avatars, even if they have a quest-ready version

@obsidian bay

Unless their avatar performance is good which is almost never the case

[charred plinth]

Can someone run me by a reason my Quest and PC bones aren't synced? I'm using VRC Quest Tools but for some reason Quest users can move the bones but not pose them and even if they move them PC users don't see any of the movement.
And on PC all PC users can both move and pose the Physbone but Quest users can't see it. I'm at a loss. I haven't changed any names and simply removed the bones using Quest Tools that I didn't need on Quest.

[obsidian bay]

They did it, my avatar in quest is very poor and have warning about size (150 mb on texture I believe)

[upper yarrow]

Yeah that’s why it won’t display, if an user wants to see your avatar they need to use the trigger button on you then select « visible » avatar since it’s not optimized at all

[wicked kraken]

Is anyone else having a split second lagging issue when you open your menu in game?

[mint anvil]

idk what to do now lol

[exotic pike]

guys, what is this?

[real blaze]

hey i dont know if this has been answered before but does anyone know how to fix the quest login issue. it wont recognized my controllers no matter how many times i click or uninstall and reinstall vrchat or if i restart the quest itself. any help would be very appreciated

[charred plinth]

This asset here: https://liindy.gumroad.com/l/PetRock

[void saffron]

excited about the memory improvments on the quest build!

[surreal seal]

Me too! Can't wait to come home and play for a while

[sand mango]

Is there a timeline for when Quest 3 hand tracking will be better supported? I’m finding it difficult to relay correct hand shapes when I’m signing with friends.

[old mountain]

vrchat is unplayable since the new update

[gray kiln]

I was just on and it was fine

[old mountain]

how do you fix the lag spikes and jittering

[gray kiln]

Idk

I never got them

[ancient snow]

Do you hang around ppl with custom avatars?

It could be that

[dense sierra]

i don’t and the lag still happens, even in worlds i’ve never lagged at

it only just started yesterday after i updated vrc

[ancient snow]

What quest u got

[left trail]

Y’all are probably dealing with the jittering issue. Its not been fixed yet

[dense sierra]

i have quest 2 im pretty surre

it like jus started tho after i updated yesterday, and all my other friends who have quest 2 say its doing that too

[dense sierra]

thats what im thinking

[ancient snow]

Hmm

I haven’t been having that issue

To be fair my oculus is slightly modded

[dense sierra]

ohh i see

its definetly a new thing w/ the update i think, cuz like i got it yesterday but my friends didnt have it, but then today my friends got it

so like the lag is happening but not to everyone ig

[ancient snow]

Yha I haven’t gotten the update either

[dense sierra]

ohh okok gotchu, i jus got it but i didnt get on vrc today but my friends did and they said it was really laggy for them

[ancient snow]

Should be fixed soon

[nocturne hazel]

Anyone wanna be friends

Dm me if yes

[left trail]

Yeaah, it’s perfectly fine on PCVR and PC dunno why quest is being mean. I believe its fixed in beta, so just gotta wait for them to take the update in beta and move it to normal vrc

[wraith lotus]

the quest 3 strap sucks so much

bobovr supply issues are driving me mad

[nocturne maple]

that might just be a meta thing. After the better hand tracking rolled out my quest 2 had really good hand tracking, but at some point (in a newer update probably) it stopped working very good at all, and that’s translated into vrchat as well. lots of latency, difficulty recognizing hand shapes, etc. even when I have more light then I did before

granted, I don’t have a quest 3. is the hand tracking different on it?

[elder moth]

is there a way to open vrchat on steam while playing on oculus without the oculus program on my pc

[primal jay]

If you mean with a Quest, then that would be by using Virtual Desktop, or fiddling with ALVR.

[steady surge]

I have a question about world sounds on the Quest. I have about 25 worlds uploaded to my account. Most of them have some kind of sound - music or a sound on entry. Many of them have the same sound. With my old headset I would say I was hearing the sound upon entering the world maybe 20% of the time. Other people have always told me they hear the sounds just fine. I got the new Quest 3 and I thought this will solve my problem. The first time I went to each world I heard the sound. After that, I am again hear the sounds randomly. I uninstalled VR chat and reinstalled it. Again, the first time I went to each world. I heard the sounds. Now I am again hearing them completely randomly. In my own worlds. Anybody have any idea what’s happening? Thank you

[smoky sky]

Since the app update I haven't been able to view the pics I took with the camera in VR chat, I'm pretty sure it used to show up under something called like "Recent Media" but now when I take pics in VRChat they don't show up anywhere at all, anyone else having this problem? I don't know what to do. My app and Quest Gallery is completely empty. I'm a standalone non-pc user, so I don't have the pc folder for the pics, they would show up in my app and I would share them to myself on Messenger to save them.

[gray kiln]

On ur headset if you go to the files thing they should be there

Unless, in ur permissions on vrc the save photos permission was turned off

[smoky sky]

My headset files are empty too. I'm going to check the permissions in case they got screwed up somehow, thank you for the suggestion!

[dense sierra]

tysm!

[sand mango]

Got it! Also yeah the hand tracking is a little different but I’m not sure how it works, thanks for the meta info

[misty pivot]

Does anyone here have a haptic suit?

[upper juniper]

can anyone help me with an air link problem?

[haughty coyote]

i need a girl to watch movies wit fr

[gray kiln]

Why specifically a girl?

[cobalt mist]

So is vrc just fazing out the quest2 users?? I haven't been able to travel on vrc in months. I even did a factory reset on my daughters old quest2 , and ONLY downloaded the vrchat app, but still have the same "out of memory" issue... even though it's a totally different headset!! Yet my daughter, who's on the same wifi, on her own Q2, has no issues in vrc.
So I'm guessing it's an issue with the account??

[gray kiln]

No it’s not an issue with the account. Memory is referring to RAM the quest 2 only has 4gb of ram which isn’t really enough

The only thing to help it is using more optimized Avis and optimized worlds and sometimes clearing ur cache can help

[granite kayak]

Yo, anyone else lagging every second consistently since the new update?

[hollow cypress]

Yea I have been having the same issue, I think it’s because of pre load.

[hollow cypress]

The first time they added pre load it did the same thing consistently lagged, but when they uninstalled it the lagging went away. Pre-load is the problem

[gray kiln]

I haven’t lagged at all

[hollow cypress]

For me I can’t even go on peoples profiles, or open the world menu, without lagging. To the point we’re I can’t do anything anymore. It’s very frustrating

[gray kiln]

Just take a break from the game wait till they fix it it ain’t the end of the world

[dense meadow]

anyone having this message ‘disconnected by disconnect error’?

[true parcel]

Does anyone else’s game keep stuttering like every couple seconds a tiny lag will happen

[dense meadow]

???

[marsh nacelle]

@gusty dune may I dm u for support

[flint topaz]

Is it possible to hear my avatars audio on quest or is that not a feature yet?

[gray kiln]

Not a feature and prob won’t be

[velvet vine]

[flint topaz]

Honestly sucks

Bc I have a few avatars that play audio and I don’t even know if they work or not

[open tangle]

Yo wsp.

[sharp eagle]

Does anyone have the quest 3 they could take a photo of the cover please? Working on some stickers but need to see what the material is like to make sure they’ll stick. Can’t get a hold of one for a few days and want to get started!

[devout lava]

why would I have to deal with kids? Deleting my world that I put so much time but it's not meant for children and then VR chats like yeah let's remove this map because it's not kid friendly I'm sorry it literally I literally put a description saying that it is a adult content map, I built it as adult content, I put my own security and stuff to prevent children getting it but my problem is this keeps happening all because VR chat will not add ID fabrication for children when it's already happened for Roblox. Why is this not a thing yet? It is kind of very annoying me as a diver and as I have to deal with these children and re-uploading the map and doing it a whole different way, as I put so much time, making a map that resembles some old things about via chats that might have inappropriate things tiny bit that is not really meant for children 😒

[exotic pike]

hey guys. i want send invite to VRChat in friend.
me 👤✉️→👤 friend
but how can i invite from VRChat in world to friend?
i'm PC mod.

[steep crescent]

Cause handling stuff like IDs is absolutely toxic waste in terms of legal handling.

You can't do anything wrong there or you're essentially done for

But vrchats reason mainly seems to be privacy reasons in general

Also roblox needs ID verification?

I once played it for a few minutes and it never asked me for anything other than my birthday lol

Also roblox would fall under the category of being a company with a fuckload of money

[devout lava]

mainly Roblox, only lyric ask you for ID so you only can play adult content. That's what I implying that they should add to prevent stopping children going and overrated maps that under age

[steep crescent]

Yeah but they already stated they don't have any intentions for the reasons i listed

[devout lava]

one I am playing is this makes it unfair for like me who tries to make a map that is made for adults then gets removed for VR chat saying that it is not appropriate to add but I'm like are you the one trying to respect the boundaries of adult content of just for children because there are two separate things, this is why I need something to prevent anyone going in the world to the children age category policy

[steep crescent]

What exactly is the type of the world?

Usually i already see worlds that are already pretty borderline themed like strip clubs or whatever existing just fine

I only know that worlds that go pretty far into the nsfw category usually staying private

[devout lava]

it's like a rollercoaster kind of world that I created that shows all times stamps like the Disney rides back to feature theme which shows all of the chats history of different worlds and stuff, but because of that most of the worlds run suitable for children and I can't do anything about it. I'll change the model about it or flying any file that I can find to add to the world or change it any further that I can to make it less appropriate. I have tried to put a system that prevent kids getting in, but at this point, I might just make a paint chant so that people pay monthly that they'll just have to pay for a coat, and that way I can just monitor it on patriot

[topaz walrus]

you guys sure do like to talk

[haughty coyote]

💀

[steady surge]

Hello. I’m trying to find help with an audio issue. I just got the Quest 3. Whenever I go into a VR chat world I can hear the music and sound effects - but when I return to the same world again, I cannot hear them. I’ve tried all the settings. The only way I can hear the sounds again is to uninstall the app and reinstall it. But the same thing happens. I will hear the sounds once and never again. And these are my own worlds uploaded to my own account. I’m assuming it happens in other worlds but I don’t know what sounds they have. I have music in my hub and sound effects in most of my other worlds.

[zinc hamlet]

Quite the yappers we got here

[granite kayak]

Yup, it's probably preload

[true parcel]

Is there a way to fix it?

[granite kayak]

I don't think so

Just wait for a new patch I guess

[scarlet gull]

i’m still completely unable to play the game because the screen gets stuck at the loading screen :p

[molten trench]

Why do things far away look blurry on quest 3, like they get those lines at the edges and stuff

[obtuse lintel]

has vrchat been optimized for quest 3 yet? when I use it with my link cable it has heavy frame drops and idk how to fix it idk if it’s vrchat or just my pc, I never had these issues with my rift S

[wind tulip]

Dont you love it when Update, then crash 30 seconds in. Crash speedrun wr?

More worried about a new update rather than excited. Its like one step forwards and two steps back lol

[quaint tree]

Broooo they need the ios one now i cant keep playing on oculus its fucking trash bruhhh

😡😩🫠

[exotic smelt]

Is anyone have problems with their quest 2 having extremely long load times

Or it's just not loading at all

[gray kiln]

Mines been completely fine and I’m pretty sure you’ll live without vrc while they take time to fix it

[quaint tree]

Shit yo ah up i love playing wit the homies when coming home from work you prob dont even work

Shut*

Lucky my phone got auto correct 😂

[quaint tree]

If yo fine you lucky

[gray kiln]

Me and my friends have had no problems

[gray kiln]

I do work, there’s many other games out there…

[quaint tree]

Nah they trash

Need vrc to fix they gane for oculus dor once

[gray kiln]

It’s really not vrc tbh, it’s also creators not optimizing their Avis and worlds that’s what a lot of quest problems are from

[fringe raptor]

anyone else having the game audio go completely quiet after some time ingame while browsing on the internet as a example?

nvm its when a video gets played that the audio breaks, bummer.

[paper sapphire]

Mine did that and I had to buy a new charger and completely reboot my headset

[exotic pike]

guys?

[surreal seal]

I absolutely still hate when they added that. I used to listen to music all the time in the background (no problems) until one stupid update broke it all

[gray kiln]

What?

[surreal seal]

To add to that, rec room also did the same but any other game doesn't have that problem /:

[gray kiln]

I don’t understand how ppl have had these problems I’ve been fine

[exotic pike]

i want to send an invitation to a friend user.
what should i do with the menu?

[gray kiln]

Open the menu click the social menu then click the friend you wanna inv then click invite

[exotic pike]

can't offline users be invited?

[gray kiln]

No

You can’t inv someone who’s offline

[exotic pike]

ah, okay thank you

[quasi folio]

Quest 3 or quest 2? I have the budget of both

[haughty coyote]

Q3 improves on Q2 in every area. The pancake lenses alone I'd say are worth it. If you have the budget, do it, otherwise give yourself some overhead and get the Q2 which is quite a bit cheaper.

[thorny bloom]

Hi guys

Can someone explain to me if i do have the error when i wanna joined the worlds

[errant canyon]

The mic got worse it seems

[haughty coyote]

Pretty low bar to begin with. It was already bad.

[stone urchin]

like the rapid joining?

[haughty coyote]

Preload*

[stone urchin]

what

im not talking about preload/nm

[steady surge]

A few people have noticed that when we go into a VR chat world, we hear the sounds once, but if we return to that world, we do not hear the sounds again. The only way to make the sounds come back is to clear your cash, leave VR, chat, completely, and come back. Still trying to find out if they know about this or where to report it.

[thorny bloom]

no it's just some error happened when i triedto join my friends

[haughty coyote]

I’m not aware of any previous answers so please be lenient, however will there be support for the quest 3s hand tracking and leg estimation/inside our body tracking?

[uncut shell]

Why is the controller model ingame still Quest 1 controllers?

[surreal seal]

😭 I was thinking of bringing that up

They really should change that considering the quest 1 isn't even supported anymore 🤷‍♂️

[stone bison]

Hey, I'd just like to ask a question.

So, I'm getting a Quest 2 soon and I was thinking of buying the bobovr strap with the battery pack. However, my friend was arguing that I shouldn't get the battery pack since I'll most of the time have my headset plugged into my pc, and from what he says apparently the link cable just autocharges the headset so I apparently have infinite playtime. Is this true? Should I buy the battery pack or is not really necessary if I'm always playing PCVR?

p.s my friend does not own a vr headset himself, he's just apparently done a lot of research on it

[keen wharf]

u dont rven need to connect ur pc to ur oculus

thats the glory of the oculus, it can run on its own, it wont have as good as graphics but itll work just as fine, connecting ur oculus to ur pc is considered pcvr, so its not absolutely required. if u want the battery pack get it incase theres ever a time u have ur oculus and not ur pc and just wanna play for longer times

also, ive found that playin high quality games like vrchat for example, drain batter so fast that the air link cable cant even keep up so it drains battery anyways, it still lasts a while but

[stone bison]

Ah, but I'll be playing Vrchat and I'd like to be able to access most things. So I'll be using steam vr

[gray kiln]

Some link cables don’t charge ur headset

[stone bison]

What about the kiwi one?

[gray kiln]

Not sure

[near tartan]

Hey if anyone's online RN I could use some company

If anyone's cool with a mute that is

[haughty coyote]

Hello

[steep crescent]

For anyone using virtual desktop

[signal pike]

how well does it run? The list doesn't mention VRChat yet

[primal jay]

Fun fact, the documentation for VDXR has a section outside of the list of supported games just to mention that no, VRChat doesn't use OpenXR and therefore does not work.

And even if VRChat was using OpenXR, not having the ability to use any overlays or FBT (outside of OSC) would be sort of a deal breaker.

[signal pike]

lol those letters were so big and i still missed them

[paper sapphire]

Dose anyone know anything about making your oculus run vrchat pc

I’m looking to get a pc that is capable of running vr chat with my oculus

[signal pike]

Which oculus headset do you have? A Quest 2 or 3 can either use a link cable, air link, or app like Virtual Desktop to play games running on a PC

[paper sapphire]

I have a quest 2 atm.

I’m just not sure what pc to buy that is in my budget 100-300 ish

[primal jay]

I scrolled past it myself, it wasn't until I finally concluded that VRChat wasn't on that list that I saw that big text.

[signal pike]

oof, $300 probably isn't going to run VR that well unless you get a really good deal

[paper sapphire]

Oh ok, I’m just running on a pretty low budget bc I’m currently planning pay for other things

Thanks for you’re help tho Drewfiz

[sinful latch]

No

[magic ivy]

anyone have any solutions or experiments to get face tracking mounted on the quest 3 yet

[paper sapphire]

No?

Like no what lol I’m lost,

[gray kiln]

You aren’t gonna find anything that cheap is what they mean

[paper sapphire]

Ah yeah that’s about what I’m getting out of every conversation.

I just don’t want to spend a tone off money on vr yk

[gray kiln]

Yeah no pc that cheap will run vr

You won’t find any pc in general for that cheap really

[paper sapphire]

Any cheaper pc recommendations that work for vr are welcome, I can raise my budget easily

I just don’t like to spend a lot of money lol

[gray kiln]

It’ll be in the thousands

[paper sapphire]

That’s ok

[signal pike]

There's a subreddit that's good for advice: r/buildapc

[paper sapphire]

Oooh ok I’ll check that out

[signal pike]

you might be able to build something passable for 800-1000 with room for future upgrades

[paper sapphire]

Ohhh lit ok thanks for the help

[median wasp]

My vrchat is tripping

[vocal valley]

whats the most candy someones got in no time to talk, so far?

[hexed hinge]

every time i get on my quest and open my menu i start crashing'

[solemn prism]

dude vrchat just made a update with 700mb

[zinc hamlet]

Woah

[gray kiln]

I don’t think they did it was prob more then One update

[haughty coyote]

You all just lost the game if yk yk

[solemn prism]

First it was a 70mb then came another one with 400mb

[unkempt cave]

Any good driving worlds tho

[steep crescent]

Varneon udon vehicles usually

Idk if quest compatible

[haughty coyote]

[gray kiln]

It is

[glacial turret]

Can I somehow access toggles menu with finger tracking?

[gray kiln]

You can when opening ur memo clicking the wings on the side and scrolling to expressions

[keen lantern]

When did they add this?

[steep crescent]

pretty recently, few days ago

[keen lantern]

Awesome

Ill update it on alll 3 oculus headsets when i get home

[primal jay]

Just noting again that it doesn't help VRChat performance at all, it can't because VRChat isn't using OpenXR on PC.

[magic ivy]

Any of you frickers know if it's possible to mount a vive face tracker to the quest 3

[true parcel]

I had to factory reset my headset but it fixed the problem

[near tartan]

Anyone looking for someone to play with?

[civic lion]

Question: is there a way to use scaling on quest with finger tracking??

[haughty coyote]

hello

[lime palm]

Anyond update steam vr and now in quest pcvr controllers arent moving

[terse night]

me too ( since SteamVR 2.0.8 )

[lime palm]

Virtual desktop seems to be working fine

[royal flume]

Is the gitter lag ever going to be fixed- is it forever- is it only my side now-?

Do I have to delete and reinstall vrc-? Is it a ram issue-?

Bc no one is complaining anymore which makes me think my issue is one if a few now 😭

Please help | reply when talking bc I have notif off

[thin meteor]

How's it going

[small pond]

Good morning everyone! Is VRChat currently optimized for the quest3 or is it still running on the quest2 version?

[lapis venture]

Does anyone know if hand tracking works with quest 3 link to pc w cable (usb 3 to usb c)

[pure snow]

What’s blue and smells like white paint

[pure snow]

I had something similar, my controller inputs at random would cease to be correct, one moment all would be fine, and the next pushing the thumb stuck forward would hold the grip button and holding the grip button would control the trigger

A, B, X, and Y we’re all basically non-existent

Menu buttons didn’t work either

Left grip button became right thumb wheel right

[gray kiln]

No

[primal jay]

It likely won't get much, if any, optimizations (that word doesn't even make all that much sense in this context, Q2 and Q3 both running the same type of chip, likely little hardware architecture difference between them and it isn't like VRChat has enough control over the Unity engine to do much about it).

Basically, the "optimizations" you get is quite a few more frames and more stability.

[haughty coyote]

Freedom 🦅🦅🦅

[pure snow]

Blue paint

[haughty coyote]

I heard the blue paint needs some democracy 🦅🦅

[magic ivy]

Listen up you fricks, does anyone have a cad or STL model of the quest 3

[narrow widget]

Sooo do only quest players go on this channel?

Ima quest player

[haughty coyote]

How does this update affect Quest?

[foggy cloud]

No idea. I haven't been able to even get into vrchat via quest

For some reason the game freezes whenever I try to login and then it reports to me as a time out login error

As a result I can't even get in

[haughty coyote]

until now i havent realized ive literally been lurking here the entire time what

[spark zephyr]

Quest 2 user, keep crashing as soon as I get in a game

[gray kiln]

Changes nothing really

More of an improvement for creators and such

[stone ravine]

Me too, might be an issue for quest users? (Unless my internet is just mean)

[gray kiln]

Hasn’t happened for me

[spark zephyr]

No no, my Internet is really good, and I have a max of 5 seconds before I crash

[stone ravine]

Hm

[spark zephyr]

I am using an older quest device though

[gray kiln]

Womp

My quest is 3 years old or older and it’s been fine

[haughty coyote]

[spark zephyr]

Refurbished Quest 2, late 2021 - early 2022

[stone ravine]

My quest is about 3 years old aswell, just kinda bugging out right now, never has..

[spark zephyr]

I'll restart and see if that does anything

[gray kiln]

Age of headset tbh shouldn’t cause it

[spark zephyr]

Like many devices it can get slower with time

[gray kiln]

Mines gotten slower but shouldn’t cause crashing

Plus it’s vrc ur gonna crash cuz quest can’t handle it

[scarlet gull]

dudeee same! i had to use a hotspot just to play

[spark zephyr]

No but it's never been this bad

Average every 30 minutes to 1 hour I would crash

But now just 3-5 seconds Everytime I load

[foggy cloud]

It used to work well without issues a few days ago but today it suddenly goes haywire

Like seriously, what the hell...

[gray kiln]

This used to happen to me and all I did was make a 5ghz wifi and it fixed it

[scarlet gull]

i haven’t been able to play for around a week because i couldn’t get past the “vrchat loading” screen ; i couldn’t load into my home world despite being in the default robot avatar so i had to connect my quest 2 to a hotspot to play and login

[foggy cloud]

It works fine logging in on pc but on my end because it's laggy I don't wanna use that either

[spark zephyr]

With my 5 seconds max I stay on VR imma speed run clear my preloads

[haughty coyote]

Hola

[scarlet gull]

is preloading the issue? genuine question, i’m unsure lol

[scarlet gull]

hi :)

[haughty coyote]

I am new to this discord, can you tell me some tips and tricks

[gray kiln]

Leave while you still can

[spark zephyr]

I don't know... That's why I did

[haughty coyote]

I need to find a life I sat in front of a VR chat mirror for48 hours straight

[gray kiln]

That’s disappointing

Go outside

[haughty coyote]

Yeah, I haven’t walked out my front door for 4 weeks

[gray kiln]

That’s disgusting

Get a life please 🙏

[haughty coyote]

I can try

[gray kiln]

Do you not got a job

[haughty coyote]

I work with my dad Three times a week

[spark zephyr]

I got it to work

[gray kiln]

Only 3 times

[haughty coyote]

Building houses

[scarlet gull]

yippee!!

[gray kiln]

Then how have you not left ur house in. 4 weeks

[haughty coyote]

I’ve been sick

I got a bad disease

🧪🧪🧪

[gray kiln]

Womp Womp

[keen lantern]

what is this notifcation? body tracking thing? is it coming to vrchat standalone soon?

[foggy cloud]

Yeah it shows here too but I can't figure out what it is... login freeze

[scarlet gull]

i’m hearing people say it’s a router / wifi issue D: it’s strange because my wifi works fine, vrchat is the only game i have problems getting into

[haughty coyote]

Yeah, it might be a request for a week, not too sure yet, but it will be coming in at least 2024

[foggy cloud]

Weird wifi is fine though and a friend of mine is using this on pc and it works fine

Wait now that you mention it I did directly disconnect my wifi on quest and the game just unfreezed

But when I reconnect to wifi it freezes again after a few seconds

Ah well... have to try again tomorrow, guess I'll have to give up for today

[burnt spoke]

So uh how’s the new update going,did the Lag guttering issues stop?

[dry moat]

No clue, it wont even let me play for more then 5 seconds

[haughty coyote]

[viral sundial]

are there haptics on quest now??? why do my controllers buzz whenever i touch someone?

oh wait yea theres haptics, sick

[pastel apex]

Theres always been haptics, they just werent triggered until either you turned it on in the settings or you updated

[simple schooner]

the new update wont let me any of my buds rotate or move the trackers like we would click Adjust FBT Move and nothing happened and it stayed stuck

[coarse birch]

hi guys, i dont actually have a quest yet but im saving up for a quest 2 and was wondering if you can use external mics? (eg. desktop mic)

[narrow tusk]

Depends if it’s wireless or not

I know ear buds work fine, idk about like headsets

Also I’d keep saving for quest 3 or wait for quest 3 lite

Not quest 2

[prisma cloak]

When i try to watch a video i recorded but it doesn’t load and shows this how do i fix

[primal jay]

Not on standalone (i.e not using PC)

[frosty basin]

The only fix I found is to send the video into Telegram via your browser

If you have short videos there is no problem but the longer ones end up like yours, I got the same

[lilac dawn]

Hello, so I have a long time I don’t play vrchat quest version and today I did but after update all suddenly the mouth of my avatar doesn’t move and also no one can’t hear me😭
Help please 🙏

[nocturne maple]

make sure your mic is on in both the oculus menu and vrchat. If it still doesn’t work, try switching which mic vrchat’s using

[nocturne maple]

yeah, but they never worked on standalone quest before. now they do

[pastel apex]

I cant read minds, i did not know that

[nocturne maple]

I didn’t mean to come off rude, sorry

[lilac dawn]

I just using the mic from quest, is on it’s supposed all is ok, I don’t know if the setting need to change? I cannot figure out 😔

[pastel apex]

Nah its not you, it was me really. I just wake up snappish, i apologize

[prisma cloak]

Tyyyy 🙏🙏

[nocturne maple]

try changing your vrchat mic to, I think its called the camcorder mic? its under the volume settings, under mic or audio input I think

[lilac dawn]

Do you have a pic of that one you mention? Because the only option for change the mic is show me “android default” because I don’t use any external mic

[nocturne maple]

I do not, and can’t get one right now, sorry, not currently at home. I could probably get one in a couple hours…

[rough eagle]

Anyone have issues loading videos/movies/stream?

[primal jay]

yt-dlp was disabled on Quest because it caused crashing #announcements message

Not enough Quest users, if basically any, tried the open beta so it wasn't caught.

[fresh cargo]

This is for eye tracking on the Quest Pro. Looks like they accidentally left it in the live version after failing to properly remove it from the beta.

[keen lantern]

Oof

[fresh cargo]

They left the eye tracking SDK in (after claiming to remove it) so now you get that pop up and the eye tracking doesn’t even function

[keen lantern]

I see i was using the quest 3

Im pretty sure its this

[fresh cargo]

No, it’s for Quest Pro eye tracking

I had a Quest Pro, this message was only ever visible on the eye tracking release branch before

They tried to remove it from the beta, didn’t do it fully, and now it made it into live

I use a Quest 3 as well

Their botched removal of the SDK even shows on the Quest store

If anyone wants that notification gone, upvote this canny to bring attention to it

https://vrchat.canny.io/bug-reports/p/1373-quest-pro-eye-tracking-sdk-made-it-into-live

And if your worlds have been stuck loading at 0%, bring attention to this one as well

https://vrchat.canny.io/open-beta/p/1357-worlds-stuck-loading-at-0-on-quest-standalone

[gray kiln]

What notification

[fresh cargo]

There’s a permanent notification pop up that will say com.oculus.bodyapiservice

[gray kiln]

Never got that before

[fresh cargo]

It doesn’t show up in front of you

It shows up permanently in the notification tab of your headset

[river sapphire]

hey guys, do you happen to know if you can see/hear sounds, music and effects from avatars on Quest 3?

I mean of course the PC/Quest avatars

[fresh cargo]

Audio sources are disabled on Quest avatars

[river sapphire]

And effects or Items?

[fresh cargo]

What does effects and items entail

Need technical terms

[flat ivy]

i feel like im going crazy. are parameters not syncing properly between quest/pc????

toggles just arent working properly at all..

[tough python]

i have a question about finger tracking on quest, is it just for Quest it self or can you use the finger tracking on PC too?

[gray kiln]

Only quest

[haughty coyote]

That is all very avatar specific. If you are on quest and find that a toggle doesnt work for you, it may be PC only, those in your instance who are on PC will be able to see the effects of that toggle in most cases, as a result.

[haughty coyote]

particle emissions on an avatar that contribute to any specific effect or prop would be PC only, as a rule of thumb, if you are on quest, and it doesnt work, it was designed to be used by PC only users. It is simpler from an avatar creators perspective to reuse all the same toggles and settings across quest and PC so its easier to update as opposed to making two seperate versions, a PC only and a Quest Only and smashing them together with the same blueprint ID.

[fringe quarry]

Hey can anyone help me get a skin please

I’ve been looking for a while and can’t find any I like

[haughty coyote]

just do a search for avatar worlds, you can even try doing a search for a fandom that you like and you may find avatars related to it. there are countless out there, just take the time to look

[fringe quarry]

Alright

Thanks broskiee

[haughty coyote]

[pseudo epoch]

Quick question
My game just won’t load after I open it
Any idea on how to fix?

[warm comet]

Does anyone know if they plan to fix the stutter glitch?

[gilded silo]

I don’t get any of these glitches so I have no clue

[pastel apex]

As far as i know, all quest versions of vrchat doesnt have avatar audio

[pastel apex]

Its quest, BUT im 90% sure theres an app for pc that can implement finger tracking on PCVR

[haughty coyote]

That requires third party accessories, native quest tracking is quest standalone only.

[pastel apex]

Thats what i just said o-o

[haughty coyote]

Not really. You said there is an app, which implies it can use the quest cameras to track. There is not. You would have to get finger trackers, a separate purchase, to get it to work

[flat ivy]

it is an avatar issue, some avatars I've uploaded have their parameters sync just fine. other avatars (like my main one) just aren't syncing and I couldn't imagine why. I know the toggles work because I went onto standalone vrchat and tested them myself. It's just specific avatars that have this issue. yes, the parameters are named correctly, yes the sync checkbox is checked. I feel like I'm missing something but I couldn't fathom what I could possibly be missing haha

[haughty coyote]

Not sure what to tell you then without seeing it in more detail. Compare the parameters of what does work and see if you find a discrepancy or try uploading a fresh version and do incremental work until it breaks

[flat ivy]

unfortunate. thanks for your help anyway! I'll figure this one out eventually

[haughty coyote]

[rustic nimbus]

is it me or when you use osc fbt when you try to use the rotation linement it wont let you use the blue balls to move them

????

[paper basalt]

Does anyone else have an issue with world audio and standalone quest?

Sometimes when I start VRChat and join a world, the world audio will not start playing unless there is a way I can turn it off then on again in a world (such as through a toggle, sliders won't work). Turning world audio off and on in the menu options does nothing, and it persists for all worlds. If the audio comes in from a different audio source (such as a video or music player) then it is unaffected. The only fix I have found so far is rebooting my headset several times until it eventually works, and it'll eventually stop working again anyway. Any ideas?

[haughty coyote]

That does sound annoying. A similar issue can happen with voice volume on occasion, as for a fix? Hard to say. If you haven't already, I'd delete vrc and reinstall. See if that helps any.

[paper basalt]

It looks like this works so far, thanks for the suggestion!
If it matters at all, I am using a Quest Pro, by the way.

[haughty coyote]

Nice I'm glad! I think it's less about the hardware and more how buggy vrc can be on occasion as this happens across any device and pcvr. When it would happen to me, deleting and reinstalling would be a pretty long lasting fix.

[gray helm]

i was being a goober and forget to reinstall Steam VR after reimaging my PC yesterday

[haughty coyote]

More pain of working on my personal

[paper basalt]

Welp, it is already back unfortunately. It lasted one session. 😦

[haughty coyote]

[haughty coyote]

If you're willing to try it, a factory reset of your headset.

[haughty coyote]

Hard to know what you need until you need it sometimes lol.

[gray helm]

I got it working

mostly….

It’s all working together but it makes the Quest 3 headset lag and kinda glitch out like crazy (while the window of it on the PC screen was fine)

and im too dizzy and tired to figure it out right now

[shut edge]

Hi

[kind jackal]

Anyone know why I get a small lag spike every second?

[exotic pike]

guys, i have a quetion

[round sphinx]

Hey everyone so my tiktok account somehow locked me out and had to make a new one so I came here to promote my tik tok. I guess- @vip._toxicity on tiktok I would be very happy if some of you would follow so I can Atleast get back to 80 followers-

[round sphinx]

What’s up??

[exotic pike]

can't link the PC version of VRChat account in the mobile version of VRChat?

just like the copy

PC version VRChat < = > MoBiLe version VRChat

[haughty coyote]

How are you connecting to pcvr? Directly through quest link or indirectly, such as through Virtual Desktop, wired or wireless?

[haughty coyote]

Generally understood as a known issue. You can try deleting the app and reinstalling as well as clearing your cache to get some relief.

[haughty coyote]

[gray helm]

Quest link cable

[haughty coyote]

If you wanna reply to me make sure you ping me otherwise I may never see it but anyway, it might not be an issue with you specifically if it wasn't doing it before. I'd normally suggest deleting vrc and reinstalling but you just reimaged your system. So idk.

[haughty hound]

is like the frames of the avatars now like 5 fps? like my hands r buging all the time

[haughty coyote]

That is the common theme these days until they work out the bug.

[haughty coyote]

I don't have a Quest 3, but I DO have many knowledge. Update 59 only became publicly available on the 24th of this month. So only last week. It's a gradual rollout so you'll get it eventually.

All update cycles for anything is like this. Updates take time to propagate through the network, it's not specific to Meta. This update is also not specific to just the quest 3. It's being pushed to Pro and 2 as well. As far as announcements, it was announced.

https://www.meta.com/help/quest/articles/whats-new/release-notes/

It's right at the top, unless it's region specific

It is region specific, but it'll probably come out in your region later. Just be patient!

Either that, or meta neglects the website for other languages other than English. Rude!

[elfin pasture]

Stfu

[haughty coyote]

[silent thunder]

So I know there was quick update regarding the video player crashing on quest but what if some world's with video players hasn't been crashing but freezing for 5 seconds and so on?

[haughty coyote]

The video player crashing and the stutter are two seperate things, the video player was the more immediate concern, it seems, but the stutter seems to effect quite a few people at this point.

[silent thunder]

So does that mean I can't go into my favorite world anymore now 😭

[haughty coyote]

for some, deleting the app and reinstalling seems to help. you can try that.

[silent thunder]

Ok

[haughty coyote]

goodluck!

[silent thunder]

Just did that it still freezing 😭😭😭😭

[haughty coyote]

the last time my quest was doing something similar, i did a factory reset and it fixed it.

[silent thunder]

How do I do that?

[haughty coyote]

you would do that from the settings of your quest itself, it will delete everything on your headset and you will have to start fresh, but starting fresh is what helps.

[silent thunder]

Well I have vrchat linked and recroom link so I don't see a problem with that it just beat saber that I can't link 💀

[haughty coyote]

same, and honestly, you wont actually lose anything, just need to reinstall it.

[silent thunder]

Is there anything I need to know before resetting it?

[haughty coyote]

Not really, other than the fact that it will put it in a state as when you first got it, so youll have to run through the set up, but that doesnt take too long.

[silent thunder]

Yea my dad has it link to his Facebook account so he not gonna let me reset it 🥲

Guess I have to suffer and get enough money for a quest 3🥲

[haughty coyote]

Ooof. though, the Q3 isnt much better in this regard, if you can convince him to let you do it sometime, it might be worth the try. hang in there for now!

[silent thunder]

I'll need some luck but he mostly gonna say no

[past minnow]

Anyone else having issues with vrc where when you try to join a world, it kicks you out instantly?

[gray kiln]

Nope

[flint topaz]

Where can I report people?

@everyone if u play ghost of tabor DM me please

[errant canyon]

This man just tried to ping 50k+ people

[haughty coyote]

[oblique geyser]

My mans you cant ping everyone

[haughty coyote]

Not like it works, you would have to be insane to allow that permission for just anyone to do a mass ping.

[nimble badger]

I know it's not quest support but if anyone as any idea how to help I'm taking it

Yesterday I received my quest 2 and wanted to play through SteamVR with it but whenever I enable Quest Link and connect to SteamVR it's just a black screen with the 3 loading dots infinitely
And my Oculus app on my pc says like "Oculus isn't working properly"

I tried setting everything to high performances, disabling NVIDIA's app overlay

Nothing works

[haughty coyote]

Try a factory reset. Also ensure quest link is up and enabled before opening steamVR

[indigo dirge]

Guys when i try to load any world what is bigger 300 mb after some seconds back me in my HOME world and dont let me join "bigger" words why ? what i can do now ?

[sacred fern]

Since the Unity 2022 update, I've been getting short lag spikes every 1 second, no matter what world I'm on, including on loading screens. Has anyone else been having this issue on Quest?

[haughty coyote]

Pretty sure the mini spikes were in place before the unity update.

[elfin obsidian]

Anyone wanna cuddle

[minor ivy]

Has anyone else been having vrchat login issues?

Where it’ll be super slow, and make me sign in, and eventually, the screen freezes

[gray kiln]

What 💀

[zinc hamlet]

Wait a damn min.

Who are you, cause I’m moms spaghetti

[minor ivy]

It’s just the name I chose

[zinc hamlet]

There can only be one

[low kernel]

are you talking to me?

[zinc hamlet]

Uhh
No

[low kernel]

Oki :3

[haughty coyote]

[paper basalt]

Hey, so I'm writing this in case any else runs into the problem I had with Quest and world audio not starting when joining a world... but I think I found a solution! At least a temporary one.

Just clear the content cache in the menu. I didn't need to do a factory reset or anything. My guess is that there's a bug that seems to save a variable for keeping world audio off or something. If it gets any worse, I'll post here with more solutions.

Thanks for your help Endurance!

[haughty coyote]

im glad you found something that works for you, hopefully it lasts! anytime!

[minor ivy]

@minor ivy does anyone know how to fix this?

[haughty coyote]

Try uninstalling vrc and reinstalling it.

[minor ivy]

Did that already

[haughty coyote]

Then i would do a full cache clear by resetting to factory default. fixes 99% of most problems.

[minor ivy]

Would I loose my games?

I’m not gonna do that

[haughty coyote]

no, you simply need to reinstall them. your purchases are tied to your account, not the headset.

[haughty coyote]

Then best of luck

[minor ivy]

I don’t want to loose my data

[haughty coyote]

you wouldnt? you just need to reinstall your games. if thats not worth it to you, then i hope you find some other solution, had the same problem, would always get stuck on a frozen blue screen while loading and a factory reset fixed it for me, took me all of 5 minutes to get all my stuff back. but you do you

[autumn nimbus]

Normal for vr chat to only get max 60 fps in big worlds with powerful pc? In vr

[dusky comet]

You lose nothing by doing a rull reset on the quest. I've done it quite frequently to fix some issues on my older one. You will just need to do the normal setup and you are good to go.

[stuck ocean]

Does mixed reality drain alot more than playing vrchat?

[haughty coyote]

Logically speaking? Most likely. Uses all the same sensors as vr, but AR also uses the passthrough cameras

[haughty coyote]

The FPS is capped, so yes.

[quartz rain]

Now I don’t know where this belongs nor am I an active user on this server since I only joined for the announcement and just cause I play the game, but it came to my attention from a friend about this line of text that says “…Very Poor avatars may be removed from Quest entirely.” Anybody else gets a certain, worry by this? I’m a quest standalone user (Quest 2) and some of favorite avatars to use are marked as Very Poor, and it worries me that they’ll be inaccessible for me to use since I’ve used some of those avatars since when I started playing the game.

[surreal furnace]

could also implement a system where you can only see so many VeryPoor avis at once

like avatar culling but just for Very Poor avis

[quartz rain]

Still sorta worries me with the way it’s worded, that’s like most of my avis gone of they do decide to remove it

[gray kiln]

They’ve mentioned this for a while and it’ll probably happen. The very poor avatars are what makes the quest lag most of the time

[tawdry raptor]

i mean, its already off on the android build... i dont have high hopes.

[quartz rain]

It’s still going to such a ton especially to those unknown and maybe avatars who’s developers have just abandoned them without updates

Honestly I’ve always used very poor avatars with no problems whatsoever, only the crashing I normally get in publics such as Murder 4 and such and even then the crash is with everyone having fallback which could just be a me problem as well, but I’ve always used the “Max Avatars Shown” feature and have only seen crashing when people spam switch multiple avatars

[quartz rain]

May I ask how long it has been in discussion for?

[gray kiln]

Not sure tbh

[quartz rain]

Again I’m 100% out of the loop so this is news to me

But it still worries me

[gray kiln]

Well it’ll most likely happen, it’s just for optimization reasons 🤷‍♀️

I always crash because of it so

It’s a problem for a lot, I have paid Avis that are very poor but there’s nothing I can do bout it

[quartz rain]

It’s still going to suck when it eventually comes, I really hope it doesn’t though

Just baseless hope but still -~-

So many good avis in my opinion that will just, poof

[tawdry raptor]

considering how harsh it is to both make and find good avatars under the very poor limit, i dont think its gonna go very well once they roll it out :shocrossedarms:

not a good idea if a lot of the userbase will be stuck with decimated avatars with no way to show poor avs anyways

[quartz rain]

Plus is it well known? I’d think it would he spoken up more even if I’m out of the loop

Especially when it happens

Personal opinion of course but it’s concerning as a standalone player

[haughty coyote]

This was originally discussed way back in April 2022. As a possible measure for optimization. It has been removed from Android for obvious reasons. Since then, the SDK requirements for avatars have changed, and the threshold of what is allowable to he uploaded continues to he scaled back. I personally don't see it happening anytime soon, but the odds are not zero. So I wouldn't worry too much on it for now.

[quartz rain]

Thank you for takimg time out of your day to answer -w- and thanks for the explanation

[haughty coyote]

Sorry for the inconvenience, but the truth is that I can't stand this person who is defaming me by telling lies to other people, I'm sick of this bastard. And I'm sorry but I've already talked to who I thought could be in charge but no. And I don't know who can help me
To get that pedophile off my back.

Is that vato crazy in

[haughty coyote]

#moderation-reports

[haughty coyote]

es encerio

[haughty coyote]

What do you expect? Block them as an added measure. That's what that is there for in addition to filing a report in the channel I gave you that's as much as you can do.

[last oriole]

Sir this is #quest-general

[haughty coyote]

lol

[stone urchin]

what this mean

[haughty coyote]

Does that happen consistently, or was it a one off thing?

[stone urchin]

literally just happened just there now, so once (i fixed it now tho, just restarted my headset)

[haughty coyote]

Figured it was a one off glitch

[obtuse lintel]

does anyone know why I can’t hear music in certain worlds despite me having my world audio unmuted? I’m on quest 3 btw

[indigo sapphire]

A question, I intend to create my own avatar from a 2D image to a virtual avatar, does anyone know what steps I should do or if there is a COMPLETE tutorial for all this?

[meager osprey]

Does anyone know how to get passthrough on the quest 3 for vrchat? I’ve seen so many clips of the avatars being in your room for example and it’s awesome

[fallen turret]

Hey, can the Quest 2 work with full body tracking?

[primal jay]

Quite sure that is through Virtual Desktop, think it was them that added a mode to mask out a color, like a green screen, so unfortunately this isn't possible without a PC.

[primal jay]

Without a PC the trackers have to make use of the OSC tracker feature.
Aside from Mocopi (not worth it, the tracking isn't good) and SlimeVR (got a multi-month backlog of orders), among the made-for tracking solutions there is also phone apps, the IPhone ones track better than Android, but neither is still all that good, IPhones a bit better than Kinect, Android worse.

[lilac dune]

@fallen turret If you need something right now or very soon for tracking, you can buy 3rd party slime trackers off of SlimeVR's official marketplace or make your own :) SlimeVR official trackers are just another option lol

There's also ways to get full body tracking to work with PSMove controllers, Nintendo Joycons & more, which are all quest compatible. but you may need some external software to get those running

[haughty coyote]

[sinful latch]

every vr does

cuz the full body tracking isnt only the vr

you needthird partx stuff

[haughty coyote]

I think the question was interpreted as if it could be used standalone, which is yes, with caveats

[fathom kernel]

I wanna play a horror map with my sister but she REALLY hates jumpscares, are there any good quest compatible horror maps that don't have jumpscares?

[crystal slate]

Smile Room is a good one. It has jumpscares but not in the face ones, at least from what I remember.

I still screamed a crap ton tho. Its a wild experience

[fathom kernel]

Ill look into it, she like really hates jumpscares

I could care either way but she barely will touch horror with me as is because of her dislike of jumpscares

[crystal slate]

You could prob scrawl through a playthrough of it. Its better without spoilers tho

I’d say it’d be a little hard to find a horror game without jumpscares

[fathom kernel]

Yeah thats kinda why I came asking here cause

its been a pain

[haughty coyote]

@fathom kernel another note on smile room, the only jumpscares that occur when you are "caught" or fail to play in the way it wants you to. The exception being one singular jumpscare you cannot avoid.

[crystal slate]

Ohh yeah you get jumpscared if you fail stuff

Like the maze and other stuff

[haughty coyote]

[surreal seal]

This new vrchat update seems like it has alot of fixes for memory on quest

[lilac mulch]

Is vrchat working for anyone

[misty pivot]

Does it still lag every second?

[lilac mulch]

No it’s stuck on the loading screen

[willow remnant]

has anyone had hand tracking issues for the avatar menu on the right hand?

like it just doesnt pop up when the motion for it is done

[pastel agate]

Memory fixes good

rocket launch good

[jagged trench]

You must be happy to have that update out now

[pastel agate]

Yessss

[burnt spoke]

Bruh I can’t play the new update because if there is slight lag,I won’t even be able to turn off my headset

[winter wind]

air link

[foggy trench]

ngl yall doin quest dirty with this update 😭 ☠️

[gray kiln]

My games been fine 🤷‍♀️

[urban pulsar]

the new update sucks , rp events are always me having to clear my ram and re-join , i rather be kicked to my home world then this crap

[tiny jungle]

Ok, I may have found a fix to the frame rate issue on vrc

you have to debug on the large menu, and click "clear content cache", I just tried it and I already been to 4 worlds and i don't have that frame rate issue

And it doesn't get rid of your avatars or any like that, I still have all mine

[autumn oracle]

Anyone else having a problem with avatars saying low memory but you have tons of memory?

[still egret]

Yes

[wise terrace]

Yep

[autumn oracle]

Tried resetting but it didn’t work for some reason

[tiny jungle]

Because of your data/memory

Your space is probably getting to full

You'll have to clear some storage to fix it

[autumn oracle]

I have 39.38 GB free of space

[tiny jungle]

No like on vrc

[tiny jungle]

This also helps fix that issue ^^

[autumn oracle]

Alright I’ll trust that nothing is gone

[tiny jungle]

Me and a couple of friends did it, we have all our stuff saved

[jagged trench]

that's referring to Ram not storage space

[gray kiln]

Memory is RAM not space on ur headset

[blazing sparrow]

Low memory means RAM, not storage

Wait two people already said that oops

[haughty coyote]

Hay anyone wanna play, I sometimes play VR chat but I don't really have anyone to play it with and public lobbies are um...Strange So um just dm I guess or smt

[haughty coyote]

Public lobbies are a rite of passage

Bro, I'm not trying to break my mind again going into them, Please don't make me have MERCY 🙏

Best of luck?

[haughty coyote]

It's the thought that counts.

[gray kiln]

Just go to a public world if someone’s weird block them it’s easy 💀

[haughty coyote]

You got a point o guess

[gray kiln]

Exactly

[versed yew]

Question when will we get avatar sounds

[blazing sparrow]

Hahaha we won’t

[quartz rain]

Wasn’t it previously a thing but was removed cause it was easy to crash quest players with avatar sounds? I think it was a thing

I remember reading about it

[blazing sparrow]

Audio is incredibly expensive to process, and there are some formats that do just flat out crash the quest on loading

So yeah pretty much

[quartz rain]

Quest has felt terrible with audio sometimes, either cutoffs in-game requiring me to either enter sleep mode for one second, rejoining the world or reset the headset when using bluetooth if both don’t work (especially when rejoining softlock black screens me), or when recording and a notification pops up, that’s why I always record on Do Not Disturb since recording always makes an immediate notification appear and I noticed that’s what causes audio cutoffs with recordings

[azure stump]

Yo does anyone know if vrc has a recurring billing option because I payed for one month and it keeps coming back and I can't afford to keep paying it

[marble marsh]

There is and you should be able to stop recurring payments by also canceling the subscription.

[steep crescent]

Ffs vrchat needs to call it RAM already

Getting tired of people not knowing what it means

[autumn oracle]

How would one clear Ram? cause I did the Clear Content Cache and it didn’t work

[haughty coyote]

RAM clears itself automatically and on restarts.

[summer topaz]

does anyone know why vrchat is crashing everytime i try to join and clubs/hangouts (im using meta quest 1)

im getting some notification but i cant read it due to quality

[autumn oracle]

Weird cause whenever I restart Vr or my whole headset it doesn’t work it just keeps saying memory low in the little loading bar on avatars

[steep crescent]

Quest 1 is unsupported

[summer topaz]

[haughty coyote]

Rip. Hasn't been for awhile now unfortunately.

[haughty coyote]

Read the latest in #announcements it is a feature of the new update. Avatars will automatically load when it's safe to do so, otherwise the announcement gives suggestions on how to handle it. Goodluck.

[gray kiln]

They got rid of it because the way people set it up was using a modified sdk which is against TOS

[haughty coyote]

In otherwords, it was never supposed to be supported for Quest standalone to begin with.

[odd prawn]

Has it just been me or whenever I place a portal down and go into a another instance my ping would increase that's been happening alot to me lately and am right next to my internet and my ping start out at a steady 47 to 60 but as soon as I go into a portal it just increase till I can't play anymore.

[haughty coyote]

Whenever I had ping issues, uninstalling vrc seemed to do the trick.

[odd prawn]

Ok thanks

[stable field]

I got banned??

What’s up with the false bans?

[azure stump]

Ty

[stone urchin]

what do you mean false ban?

[gray kiln]

It literally will tell you why you got banned and whining in here won’t do anything go to #moderation-reports and go make an appeal

[stable field]

Ok first off I alr did that and the fact you responded to something a hour later is funny. I got my account back so thank you for wasting your time trying to be rude

[stable field]

It got solved it was a bug

[gray kiln]

Wasn’t being rude just how I talk, plus I’m responding an hour late one because I have other things to do beside discord and two because I don’t pay attention to the time

[stable field]

Oh ok you’re good

[stone urchin]

alr cuz i think the same thing happened to me yesterday😭

[stable field]

Bro it was so weird

[stone urchin]

what happened, js admin

askin*

[deft storm]

Should I upgrade to the quest 3 ?

[timber grotto]

Is anyone else having trouble trying to watch videos or listen to music, or even play just dance In vrchat? , the videos have been very buggy and makes it hard to play, or watch . ( I have quest 2 )

[autumn oracle]

Idk this update is broken bro, I’ve cleared space and everything even go as far as reinstalling VrChat and I still have a problem with Memory low avatars

[timber grotto]

Same!

It kinda helps, if you delete photos

[autumn oracle]

I ain’t got no photos

[timber grotto]

Oh then nvm 😭

[gray kiln]

Memory is RAM removing photos won’t do anything

[timber grotto]

Oh I see

[autumn oracle]

And how does one clear ram?

[gray kiln]

It won’t load the Avis until there’s enough RAM which it clears by itself

You can’t clear ur RAM

Using more optimized Avis and worlds can help

[autumn oracle]

Right and if that hasn’t worked for the past hour now

[burnt spoke]

My vrchat keeps saying memory low on the avatar even tho I have enough memory left

[haughty coyote]

This has been brought up many times here. "memory" here, does not refer to storage space, but RAM.

[haughty coyote]

RAM is volitile, it clears itself when it is no longer needed in the moment, and also clears itself on shutdown and restarts as well.

[gray kiln]

I wish people knew the meaning of memory the amount of times I’ve had to tell people it’s RAM Omfg

[jagged trench]

that's referring to Ram not file storage

[jagged trench]

yeah I'm wondering if the devs should just change the phrasing to Ram to make it less ambiguous

[burnt spoke]

What is Ram because I’m dumb

[haughty coyote]

Google is your friend

[gray kiln]

Yes 😭

[jagged trench]

basically it's your computer's short-term memory

[burnt spoke]

Ok

[jagged trench]

basically your quest head is getting too full of thoughts to handle more avatars without crashing

[haughty coyote]

It's like, you let people rent your bicycles for a city tour, and there's only like a set of bicycles for tourists to rent. If all bicycles are rented, you cannot let more tourists to rent, unless if the people that are renting those bicycles finish riding them

[haughty coyote]

[round loom]

It was never like this until the new update. I swear with each and every update vrc releases it just makes it more and more unplayable.

[gray kiln]

It’s been a thing for a while

Quest can’t handle it since it ain’t optimized enough

[round loom]

Shit..not for me. I never had that problem until now.

But what about the hard crash loop?

I've seen it happen twice now and there's no way my friends can get on because of it. They load in. Get kicked to the oculus menu. Delete it. Everything and it don't work for em.

[gray kiln]

Idk

My games been fine

[round loom]

Idk. But it's getting annoying how with each update it becomes more and more harder to play

[blazing sparrow]

For the “intended” effects, before this update the game would kick you to your home world, or completely crash, so in this case it’s an improvement.

[round loom]

Oh god I hated that so much. But

[blazing sparrow]

Instead of crashing, now it just “low ram so no more avatars so your headset doesn’t explode :)”

[blazing sparrow]

This would be a separate issue though. They could either contact support, or try using SideQuest or smth to manually clear the vrchat files that may have been left behind.

Idk how the app handles things though, nor info about their specific cases.

[round loom]

Idk. It's just with all these new problems it gets extremely annoying. Especially when your in groups that require your avatar to be turned on

[steep crescent]

https://feedback.vrchat.com/feature-requests/p/refer-to-out-of-memory-errors-on-quest-as-ram-to-avoid-confusion

[sacred pawn]

What are peoples thoughts regarding Quest 2 Vs 3, if you really only plan to play with it tethered to a fairly powerful pc? I've had a Rift S for a few years, but Meta broke the software and it's been unusuable for 6mo now, so thinking about geting the 2 or 3. (1800X, 3080, 32g Ram)****

[haughty coyote]

Keep in mind that when tethered, all of the processing is done by the computer, not the headset, so you wont see much of a performance increase by upgrading. However, Q3 does have better lenses and other optimizations that would still make it worth it. Just dont expect crazy performance increases.

[sacred pawn]

I only have unusable rift S right now, i dont have a quest at all. That said all the compute is offloaded to the pc when tethered your saying, for CPU and GPU?

[haughty coyote]

yep

[sacred pawn]

would you say in tethered mode it is at least as good as my Rift S was then with the quest 2?

Also, can you tether and charge the thing at the same time?

[haughty coyote]

The marketability of Quest is in its portability, it was never meant to replace PC specific VR set ups, so you will find that Q2 would perform performs the same, but Q2 does have better resolution than Rift S, and that platform is discontinued anyway.

[haughty coyote]

Yes, so long as you have a link cable of sufficient quality, I use the official Link Cable and I have no problems charging while tethered. you get what you pay for in this regard.

[sacred pawn]

yeah i get that, but cant afford an index, nor do i want to deal with the lighthouses. I would stick with my Rfit S if meta had not broken the software, rendering it completely unusuable.

[haughty coyote]

Its not that it was "broken" it was replaced by the Q2.

[sacred pawn]

When they dont let you stop updating the software, and it can brick the device, thats broken not depricated.

[haughty coyote]

Call it what you will, but they are phasing it out regardless.

Processing power and capability while tethered is roughly the same, no matter what you use, the biggest difference then, comes in the image quality and resolution, Q3 being better than Q2. ao if you can spring for the newer model, you should. its standalone features are nice as well.

[sacred pawn]

yeah, the bump in rez isnt really a selling point for me as its very small, and i basically never plan to use it in standalone mode. So thinking I'll prob go with a 2, but wanted to understand tethered mode as I don't know anyone who does that, and wasn't sure if the 3 was in some way "better" when tethered than the 2.

[jagged trench]

basically the pancake lenses would be the only noticeable difference between the two in PC mode

[sacred pawn]

ahh, ty. that is the essence of my line of questioning

[haughty coyote]

I have a Q2 and use tethered and standalone, and from comments others have made, there is no real difference while tethered because PC does the processing, not the headset. so you are better off getting the Q2 if thats what you wanted. If you really wanted the best performance while tethered, you would need to get an Index, but the cost is yikes.

[sacred pawn]

yup, not in my budget, thats for sure

[haughty coyote]

Thats exactly what I was saying. Q3 is better in image quality over Q2 because of the pancake lenses.

[sacred pawn]

ok, well thanks for the info folks, I will see if I can pick up a 2 during the christmas sale season.

[haughty coyote]

They will probably get dirt cheap during Cyber Monday and Black Friday if you are in the states.

[sacred pawn]

I am, and I'm crossing my fingers that's whatg happens now that I know which of the 2 I should get. 🙂

[bold quest]

Hi, I've just buy a new PC and IDK I can't use the Oculus Link with Cable (the official one).
When I plug the cable in my PC and in my Quest, nothings happen, the quest's not charging and I can't link. If you have a fix, tell me please cause I want to play VR again.

[oak lantern]

I need this I am stuck in the middle of nowhere without vR chat and I'm bored as hell your chat mobile without having a VR chat Plus subscription annoying this is fully annoying

God damn it 😠

[urban pulsar]

Depends if your Pc is vr ready

And I suggest getting virtual desktop on your quest and download it on Pc so that it doesn't have to connect with just a wire or air link

[bold quest]

He is ready, but idk why it's like the Quest isn't detecting the PC

[urban pulsar]

Mine did the same , it used to connect via air link or cable , but the quest update broke it

The only way I could get back in vrchat was by buying virtual desktop

Even with the cable it would say there's no headset and to try again. You could re download quest app on your Pc and see if that helps

[hollow spindle]

Why when I go visit friends in vrchat the loading bar that loads the skins says "memory low" I think is because he is a steam account and no a vrchat account but any who how I can solve this error?

[urban pulsar]

the new update for quest, u have to have enough quest memory to load avis now

[haughty coyote]

It will load in eventually, also it’s a setting you can disable but it will likely crash you more

[urban pulsar]

wait its a option?

[haughty coyote]

Yes I had to turn it on

[urban pulsar]

i didnt know that, where would i go to turn that shit off??

[haughty coyote]

Comfort and safety I believe

I keep it on since it really helps with performance and only takes a few minutes

Also if it never loads try turning their avi off then back on

Oldest trick in the book

[urban pulsar]

aah ty, cause rp events are just me sat there waiting for 4 people to load cause they change to much

[haughty coyote]

Yeah

I don’t do big events much but i see how that would be a problem

[urban pulsar]

yeah , im pc (quest link) and its not me having the issue , my bff is and he has extreme anger issues and this keeps making him all upset cause he wants to rp but has to wait to see them or they never load and has to rejoin the world

[haughty coyote]

Ah I see

Questies

[urban pulsar]

ive seen this man rejoin the world more then 7 times and i can see why alot of people are getting upset about it , im glad its a option though

[haughty coyote]

I have a pc but it’s an iMac and can’t support the oculus system

iMac being the desktop kind

I wanted to try playing vrchat on desktop once and they don’t even support the game on macos

[autumn oracle]

Excuse me? You can turn off that thing?

Is that a Pc thing only? Or can it be done on quest?

[oak ore]

If you have an intel-based iMac and really want to try desktop you can have a go at installing windows on your iMac

[haughty coyote]

I’ve thought about maybe doing that

The real question is

Is windows installation on macos free

[oak ore]

I don't see why it wouldn't be

you don't need to buy windows

[haughty coyote]

I will get started immediately (in a few hours)

[oak ore]

https://youtu.be/1C7zQxdLreQ?si=tk6D0EQCQC53289r this might be a good video to follow

make a backup if you have anything important on there

[haughty coyote]

[autumn oracle]

How would one disable the Memory low thing on avatars

[haughty coyote]

One does not. It's a safety measure to keep you from crashing to home. It resolves itself after time, or you can reboot your headset. You can also make your safety settings higher and block more avatars by default. And manually turn in avatars you want to see.

[autumn oracle]

It’s a broken measure

Avatar don’t turn off when I turn em off they just keep saying memory low

[haughty coyote]

Restart then

[autumn oracle]

Tried still the same

Even redownloaded

Works for a bit then has the problem again

Might need a new headset or something

[empty ermine]

Won't work. Quest after some time will just not really see avatars anymore with this update, and it's infuriating.

I still don't see how this specific "fix" was gonna do anything good, when the way to fix the problem already existed, it's called the safety menu.

[autumn oracle]

At this point it’s just something that needs to be scrapped or revamped

[blazing sparrow]

It means the ram of the quest is full and cannot load more without causing instability (which could lead to getting kicked to your home, or crashes). You can hide other’s avatars to free up ram to let other avatars load, or use safety to prevent yourself from reaching the limit quicker.

[hollow spindle]

So Wich means is had a very por skin or the world we chose are to big...

[blazing sparrow]

Likely a combination of both

[hollow spindle]

Any ways to disable this by the way?

[hollow spindle]

That too

[empty ermine]

No way to disable it, it's likely to be a main stay.

Basically any big world, or cool avatar that just so happens to be "very poor," no matter who's wearing it, which includes you, you can likely kiss that goodbye after a good 10 minutes of playing the game.

[jagged trench]

previously you would just outright crash after a while

[jagged trench]

vrchat has considered removing very poor avatars altogether from the quest and already has done so on the Android build

[empty ermine]

If that were to happen, I guarantee to you almost every quest user in existence would not be on this game period anymore.

[blazing sparrow]

Likely the reason why they’re preemptively blocking them on android

The team knows not to remove features that are already there, but android is a “new” platform, so starting with it gone isn’t an issue.

[jagged trench]

and in all likelihood Android users are going to outnumber Quest and PC users

[empty ermine]

On Android, I get it. It's a damn phone, it'd make the thing explode. But on a whole headset? That'd kill it all off.

[jagged trench]

The Quest 2 is literally the same processor as the cell phone

[blazing sparrow]

The phone could arguably run it more easily as it’s one screen, at a lower resolution, where high frame rates aren’t as critical to playability

[jagged trench]

the ram problem would still be pretty similar

[blazing sparrow]

It’s limited to 6GB min afaik anyway

[lapis venture]

hey, just a quick update; i finally got the update on my quest! thx for informing me about just simply waiting lol

[jagged trench]

that's 6 gigabyte phone could be running a bunch of background applications eating Ram

[blazing sparrow]

I mean so does the quest

[haughty coyote]

Sweet! Glad you got it eventually

[haughty coyote]

Not necessarily, I have an S23 ultra with 12gb of ram, double that of the Q2 and more than Q3. They are setting a performance precedent for better optimization. Eventually the SDK will place harder limits on upload thresholds for worlds and avatars. On the flip side, now that VRC will support Unity 2022, there will be better tools for optimizing worlds and avatars. I'm interested in seeing how the SDK changes for it, which isn't quite there yet.

[haughty coyote]

Indeed vrc doesn't get access to all available ram. It takes a sliver of a sliver of the pie in comparison to all other background processes.

[jagged trench]

2022 is not going to make a huge difference as far as people's tool chains for Content creation

[jagged trench]

VRchat only has 4 gigabytes to work with on quest

[haughty coyote]

I never claimed 2022 itself would make the difference, it does have its own share of improvements and bug fixes. im more interested in the SDK, since it was already mentioned before that changes in how avatars are given their performance rank were going to change, and as a result, what would have slid in as "very poor" before would be unuploadable, if that is even a word lol.

[haughty coyote]

yep.

[jagged trench]

they're not going to be adjusting the Avatar ranking in a way that would be more loose given they still have to support the quest 2

[haughty coyote]

Loose? no, tighter.

As it currently stands they would never relax the requirements, that would be utter chaos

[haughty coyote]

[gray kiln]

I’d still play

[autumn oracle]

So you’d play if they removed all the avatars you’d use?

[gray kiln]

Not all my avatars are very poor

Cuz the ones I use people actually optimize

💀

It’s not like imma die without avatar I ain’t that much of a degenerate

[haughty coyote]

People always threaten mass exodus when change happens. But it almost never happens, people are just scared of change and expect the worst

EAC moment fr

[haughty coyote]

Exactly

[thick seal]

Do I need to have the exact same VRCExpressionParameters and Menu for quest-version of an avatar?

or can they be completely different and still be considered the same avatar?

what needs to be same, what can be different?

please explain in detail as this is my first time

[primal jay]

The menu I think can be completely different and parameter wise you'd want everything you want to sync over.

And yes, they can be completely different, the entire avatar can be completely different between PC and Quest, literally everything holding them together is that blueprintID and VRChat will do its best to animate (move the bones based on your head and hand position) the version you aren't using.

More info here, but if you want them to sync, they must be in the same index and type

[thick seal]

[half dirge]

Anyone wanna play some horror worlds

[frigid glade]

[frigid glade]

I would tho

[haughty coyote]

You have any favorites?

[half dirge]

Not really

[haughty coyote]

[void coyote]

Hiya, does the quality get better when u use your headset on pc?

[blazing sparrow]

Yes, as the PC is doing the rendering, and the Quest essentially becomes a display

However, you will need a good computer

[haughty coyote]

[void coyote]

[young comet]

Anyone wanna play?

[finite perch]

yo

[haughty coyote]

[cunning beacon]

I wish

Pls fix vrchat on quest 2

[haughty coyote]

I don’t get why everybody is complaining about the whole avatar not loading thing, it doesn’t directly effect your gameplay at all unless you’re tryna rp or something, and it really rarely happens to me. Though when it does, it just takes a few minutes to properly load

[reef bolt]

heyo! im asking this for a lovely new visitior to the game, they cant see avatars, have no button to turn them on, confused on how to help lol

they on q2^

[haughty coyote]

Double check safety settings as well as make use of the "show avatar" options available when you select another person. Your question is somewhat vague. If they are getting the memory error it will resolve itself after a bit of time.

[reef bolt]

They said it wasnt memory, I had them double check their safety settings, avatar download limits, everything

they cant even see friend's avatars automatically

[haughty coyote]

But they can manually?

[reef bolt]

no

they cant

thats what I was confused about

they literally cant see all of this

[haughty coyote]

You should have them give you a ss of their menu, because it seems like user error, just not sure where the error is

The new update is a step in the right direction but the memory low is way too common

[haughty coyote]

Just shows you how much of a problem it already was. Now it's tangible, before you didn't know how low you were until you got kicked to home.
