@ me for response

haughty coyote Dec 20, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

I've been having difficulty connecting to VRChat. Every time I attempt to launch the game these error message shows up: "Make sure your device has a working internet connection and restart VRChat" I don't use a pc. Any ideas on how I can fix this (I have a very fast consistent internet connection, its just whenever I try to play vrchat I get that message) I am in the blue space screen and I see the vrchat logo roating, I have done a factory reset and reinstalled still no luck

unreal veldt Dec 20, 2019, 11:22 PM

#

can anybody help?

#

it's still broken

#

as in

#

it moves, i can grab things

#

but it doesn't show hand gestures

#

or trigger what it usually does

haughty coyote Dec 20, 2019, 11:24 PM

#

What headset?

unreal veldt Dec 20, 2019, 11:24 PM

#

Quest

haughty coyote Dec 20, 2019, 11:25 PM

#

Ah right. Lol
Uh, I know oculus just put out an update that seemed to break a lot of people's tracking and some input. Maybe it might be due to that?

unreal veldt Dec 20, 2019, 11:25 PM

#

but the thing is, it's only broken in VRC

#

well

#

vrc is the only one really with gestures

#

but if it was the update wouldn't it also affect the left hand?

haughty coyote Dec 20, 2019, 11:27 PM

I don't know.

jagged trench Dec 21, 2019, 1:36 AM

#

and unlikely to ever support it

#

as you wouldn't have any way to control your character movement

#

and apparently due to how it works it can not track both the controllers and the hands at the same time

According to the SDK that came out today, you can actually use 1 controller and 1 hand, even though the UI that’s currently there doesn’t do that

#

So vrchat on the quest can totally do that. It currently supports 1 controller 👍

unreal veldt Dec 21, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

hey I fixed the issue with the hand

rose patio Dec 21, 2019, 2:47 AM

#

Any news on Hand tracking? I’m doubtful it’ll happen but was curious if devs had said anything after getting the SDK

unreal egret Dec 21, 2019, 3:25 AM

#

Is Oculus Quest best budget option for VR?
Also does it support body tracking?

Can't find a buying guide.

May anyone @ me with links to purchase the items needed for the full experience with body tracking?
Do I need a beast graphics card for VR Chat?

haughty coyote Dec 21, 2019, 3:38 AM

No

can you not see I'm making a write-up

#

thanks. vrcAevSip

haughty coyote Dec 21, 2019, 3:38 AM

#

huh

azure mantle Dec 21, 2019, 3:43 AM

#

1. if you're planning to do PCVR, get a Rift S or save even more bucks with an Odyssey+ depending if you don't mind WMR's controllers and slightly lesser tracking volume

2. Oculus Link on SteamVR will support any frankenstein FBT method you'll throw at it just like other roomscale headsets.

3. You have multiple options for FBT.
a) HTC Vive Trackers and Base Stations (Around 500 dollars) gives the best tracking
b) PlayStation Move controllers and PSEye cameras using PSMoveService and KinectToVR 0.6.0 (price varies between 150-250 dollars depending on luck and availability) only 30hz tracking but with 3 cameras has quality similar to Vive trackers.
c) Nolo with Driver4VR (around 200-350) solid tracking, but because of the singular external sensor, is mostly front-facing.
d) Xbox One Kinect with KinectToVR (around 70-90 dollars) mostly front-facing, can't do some poses, 60hz tracking, completely gives up when facing away from it as it can't tell what way your body is facing.
e) Xbox 360 Kinect with KinectToVR (around 10-25 dollars) 30hz compared to One, still works sideways but is definitely on the verge of giving up, and turning your body into mashed potato. Still does the job for a lot of people and is pretty much unbeatable value at the price of a Happy Meal.

4. Personally I would recommend a 1660 or 1660 TI for VR at all. I'm running on a 1050 TI and while it's playable. Most VR games are pushing it to the limit. You definitely don't need a 2080 or a 5700xt to enjoy high-quality VR on PC, but you also shouldn't skimp out.

5. $$$ BONUS $$$ You also want a somewhat recent semi-high-end CPU (last 5 years), plenty of RAM and a good motherboard with enough USB bandwidth if running Oculus Link.

That’s great

unreal egret Dec 21, 2019, 3:47 AM

@azure mantle Thank you sir

#

@azure mantle I appreciate you taking the time to type a detailed response. Saved it in my Google Keep for future reference. Sounds like I gotta spend more than I think because probably gotta upgrade my computer. Need to make more money to buy all this stuff lol. Plus got the girlfriend to take care of too. Guess I gotta wait a little longer

azure mantle Dec 21, 2019, 3:52 AM

#

protip: dont buy an og vive or a rift cv1 unless theres an insane deal, and stay the FUCK away from the vive cosmos

#

just follow that and honestly, it's hard to fuckup otherwise

livid rampart Dec 21, 2019, 5:39 AM

#

oof haha

#

yeah ive just been looking at videos and i definitely decided i dont id rather have an oculus

#

probably mainly becouse of comfort and controllers

#

and public opinion

#

im pretty happy with my choice for the quest and im excited to get it for christmas :)

@rose patio it probably wont happen but i hope so

but there is now a hand tracking game on sidequest

#

apparently the rendering of it is slower then the response of it.. but the occlusion happens quickly too

Hmmm.

exotic ruin Dec 22, 2019, 9:02 AM

#

I’m getting a quest battery any recommendations?

azure mantle Dec 22, 2019, 9:08 AM

#

literally any large capacity battery bank should do. If you have Amazon Prime, I'm pretty sure their battery banks will end up cheaper

#

and a USB-C cable with a right-angle connector at the end

exotic ruin Dec 22, 2019, 9:26 AM

#

Lol Ik but I heard some are better then others and would like to know if any of you have a certain preference

haughty coyote Dec 22, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

So idk if this is the right channel, but one of my friends has been searching for the person uses the Dapiviki account? I forgot you spell it. He said she hasn’t been online for quite a few days.

jagged trench Dec 22, 2019, 10:15 AM

well it is almost Christmas so that's not too surprising

haughty coyote Dec 22, 2019, 11:35 AM

I was told she hasn’t been on since Sunday.

Not the right channel, also there are over 20000 people on this server, why do you think anyone would have noticed her?

Is it bad to have Avatars that can crash someone

incredibly bad

Super bad -.-

worthy dune Dec 23, 2019, 6:54 AM

how is that even a question

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 7:17 AM

#

Quest going to have full body tracking later hehehehhe

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 7:23 AM

#

it's not going to as that's not really doable without an external camera currently

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 7:42 AM

#

Oh uh...

#

Probably idc about camera tho same as vive

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 7:50 AM

#

the Vive uses external sensors

#

so that's functionally the same thing as cameras as far as the Vive being able to see your legs when you're not looking at them

#

like the quest is pretty much doing guesswork when your hands are behind your back

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 7:55 AM

#

@south wedge Antilatency makes BUSINESS solutions for location-based entertainment. You cannot buy this as a consumer. And no retail app or game is going to make use of it.

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

Guess were gonna wait more than months then

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 7:59 AM

#

you're not going to see FBT on Quest, ever.

#

The Oculus SDK as it currently stands does not support more than 3-point tracking

#

and there is no demand from "mainstream VR" consumers for FBT

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

and also considering Facebook Horizons Oculus has no interest in legs

#

FBT is a expensive toy for folks on vrchat and Neo VR

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

I can't believe Facebook used their billions of dollar to figure out how to make IK not garbage. They just removed it!

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:02 AM

#

^^ That hit me really hard im in disappointed rn

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:02 AM

#

Look, go buy a fuckin gaming rig, an xbone kinect and the oculus link cable

#

then come back here and I'll help ya set up your FBT

#

then you'll sell your Quest and Link cable 2 months later and go buy an Index and trackers

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

so yeah an expensive toy

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

Now

#

if you can do us a favor

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

considering you just suggested they spend like 1700 bucks

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

If you see someone on Discord or in VRChat claiming that the Quest is going to have full-body tracking literally at any point in the future.

#

Tell them what we just told you.

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

Im about to switch to vive

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:04 AM

#

Vive is almost 4 years old, has terrible godrays, breaks if you look at it funny

#

HTC is boutta make themselves bankrupt if they continue on the way they're doing with Cosmos and Viveport

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:04 AM

#

Then wth Im I suppose to buy?

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:04 AM

#

Rift S, Index or Odyssey+

#

No other headset really matters rn

#

or is worth the money, from a factual point of view

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

Rift S has low quality is it that true or low latency?

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

that's very false

#

the Rift S' LCD panel uses an RGB stripe layout to give percieved higher resolution despite only being 1440p

lost tulip Dec 23, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

Latency isn’t an issue at all

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

The 80hz refresh rate is not going to fuck you in the ass unless you're a nolife Index hermit running at 144hz and only taking off your headset 4 times a week to piss and eat

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

Lol

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:06 AM

#

and even then, you'd adapt in a week

#

The only thing that sucks balls about Rift S imo, is the audio

#

but if you already have your own earbuds or headphones, you'll be fine

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

Thats ok tho

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

And also the lack of physical IPD

lost tulip Dec 23, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

Well I think it’s not that bad at all. Switching from headset sucks for like the first 10 minutes but the speakers aren’t that bad. Ofc you won’t have IMAX quality bass or anything but they are decent for VRChat and Beat Saber

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

I would probably Focus first on the computer and the Kinect if you already have the quest so that you have more time to save up for the PC headset

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

Rn now my objective buying cheap parts

#

For cable link isnt is the same thing that your charging rn?

#

Ah yes, but you can get a 13 dollar Anker cable on Amazon and it's like 3.5 meters

#

definitely not enough if you plan to move around and do FBT, but yknow

#

its a 13 dollar 12footer

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:21 AM

#

What do you mean fbt theres an alt to do that???

#

Or im just dumb about vr

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

nope basically they're just pointing out you're likely to trip on the cable with it that shorts if you're doing full-body tracking

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

Hold up what product are you talking about for fbt

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

we haven't discussed any product yet

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:24 AM

#

confused

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:24 AM

#

we were just noticing if you plan on full-body tracking eventually you would want a longer cable

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:25 AM

#

if youre tracking your entire body, youll want to be walking around your room. if the cable is 3 meters long. youll trip, fall over ~~and die~~

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:26 AM

#

For cable ik how to organize it not need to worry

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:26 AM

#

organizations not going to help you if the cables too short

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:27 AM

#

Im saying is I dont wanna move around much

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:27 AM

#

then why are you interested in full-body tracking

#

it's pretty much useless if you're going to be standing in place

#

700 bucks really isn't worth it to just wiggle a leg occasionally

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:29 AM

#

Well... people kinda bored using it in vrchat sometime

#

Hmm I guess thats reason no other use

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

well full-body tracking kind of useless except for something like vrchat as you're not going to implement a feature that folks to buy extra Hardware to use it whereas that's kind of okay for a social vr app

azure mantle Dec 23, 2019, 8:31 AM

#

most times you find FBT users

#

theyre extenuated from having actually moved

#

hence they sit/lay down so as not to die

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:32 AM

#

Oof

#

So im just going to rely on quest just to lay down in bed

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:33 AM

#

yes it's physically exhausting to run around and dance and all of that with a VR headset on top of your head

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:34 AM

#

I also hate controller really much heavier that I couldnt play beatsaber

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:35 AM

#

well you're pretty much bones then as hand tracking won't let you play Beat saber or vrchat

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:35 AM

#

Im relating to Vive controllers that like 10 pounds >_>

#

Like about to break the wall instantly

#

If also straps were weak

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:36 AM

#

do you have any problems with your quest controllers

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:37 AM

#

Oh nah its the best BUT

#

My left controller movement has a problem

#

Its going to be hard to explain

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:38 AM

#

unfortunately I'm not knowledgeable enough in Hardware to try to suggest to fix

south wedge Dec 23, 2019, 8:38 AM

#

But lets say that when you touch the joystick move up and the joystick automatically moves down when not touching the joystick at least 0.1 seconds.

#

It irritates me I have to rely my right joy stick for use

#

And for buying another controller on that price oh hek no

jagged trench Dec 23, 2019, 8:47 AM

#

can't really help with your problem there

#

but honestly it sounds like from your use case of VR full-body tracking would be an overly expensive toy for you if your preferred way to play is on your bed

hi guys

#

how is vrchat on quest

haughty coyote Dec 24, 2019, 12:25 PM

#

Use an oculus rift s

#

Its better

cursive turret Dec 24, 2019, 12:26 PM

#

im gonna get the link

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 12:26 PM

#

Pretty terrible to be honest. It's super limited and what does exist is pretty horrible compared to the PC experience.

cursive turret Dec 24, 2019, 12:26 PM

#

f

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 12:27 PM

#

If you're buying for the sake of PCVR, get the Rift S as the picture's higher res and the headset is more comfortable.

cursive turret Dec 24, 2019, 12:28 PM

#

i have a hella good gaming pc but i wanted to get the quest because i travel a lot and want to bring my vr with me, im hoping that the oculous link cable will be rlly good tho, because im planning on playing most of my games on the pc with link

#

but if its trash im gonna sell it and buy rift s

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

Just buy a cheap $9 cable. As long as it's USB 3.1, it'll work.

#

The only reason the Oculus cable is more expensive is because it's fibre optic so they can make it longer, that's literally the only advantage. So unless you really need 5 metres over 3, save your money.

cursive turret Dec 24, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

yeh true but i hear a lot of people saying that the cable is going to bring less latency, better quality and stuff like that, i have no idea if that is true tho lol, im probably going to buy the 10ft anker cable on amazon for now untill i see a review of the link when it comes out

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 12:47 PM

#

It's not true. For some reason Quest owners like to make up nonsense constantly and I genuinely have no idea why.

cursive turret Dec 24, 2019, 1:18 PM

#

Lol

#

I think the quest with the link is still gonna be fine enough quality for me to play vr chat

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 1:27 PM

#

Yeah, it'll be fine.

azure mantle Dec 24, 2019, 1:31 PM

wdym? just move your hands? https://files.readme.io/3c8e9ff-VRChat-Oculus-Controls.png

worldly rapids Dec 24, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

@azure mantle Sorry to @ you but are the controls similar to Quest controls? If so I would love to have that chart in my world since a lot of Quest users that are new don't seem to know how to do them.

plain flower Dec 24, 2019, 4:10 PM

#

they should be exactly the same

#

since quest controllers are literally touch controllers with a flipped ring

worldly rapids Dec 24, 2019, 4:11 PM

#

A lot of Quest users have told me what I tell them doesn't work but maybe I'm just explaining it badly. lol

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 4:31 PM

#

@worldly rapids Quest and Rift S controls are the same

#

(literally the same controllers)

worldly rapids Dec 24, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

Thank you, that's good to know. Now I know when someone says, "That's not how you do hand gun!" I know they're wrong. Haha

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 5:00 PM

#

Could be an avatar with some sort of override in that instance.

worldly rapids Dec 24, 2019, 5:04 PM

#

Oh, it's that they were using an avatar I made and hand gun was to make the prop spawn but they couldn't get it even though it was hand gun.

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 5:05 PM

#

Odd. Sure that it actually works on Quest?

worldly rapids Dec 24, 2019, 5:06 PM

#

Yeah, they got it eventually, but they always mention that the way I told them to do it was incorrect. I'm a pretty lousy teacher though. 🙃

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

Hello, i've got kind of a big problem and i think it's account related. So when i log in on the quest just after installing VRC everything works fine, but as soon as i close the game and reopen it i am stuck in a infinite world change loop. I tried it with a unlinked new ocolus acc and it didn't happen but as soon as i linked the account and relogged the problem was back

azure mantle Dec 24, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

@sharp bay theyre right here ^

#

Can we get this fixed somehow or would it be smarter to create a new account and re-add all old friends/redo all blocks/favs, etc

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

@distant mountain What's with the name? You look like you're impersonating the official bot.

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

i have that name since 2017. that's just a temporary account until i can regain access to my main account which was hacked

azure mantle Dec 24, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

login with the clean acc that works, then go to settings advanced settings, and clear both the cache and userprofile

#

then reinstall the game

#

then login

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

@azure mantle i already tried a clean uninstall + reinstall

#

not even that worked

azure mantle Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

then idfk

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

it was basically broken on a brand new out of the box quest

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

@distant mountain you sure it isn't that your home world is PC only?

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

that's why i think it has smth to do with the acc

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

If you uninstall and reinstall vrchat, it should take you to tutorial world. Use that opportunity to do Reset Home in the worlds menu

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

@distant mountain you sure it isn't that your home world is PC only?

shouldn't that just throw me in default home instead of doing what it does then?

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

no, it's broken

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

oh

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

at least it was a month ago

distant mountain Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

i'll give that a try

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

we should really get a canny filed. it basically means PC users won't ever use quest :-p

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

It's fine as long as their home is Quest compatible, I cross platform all the time.

empty salmon Dec 24, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

yea but not if your home isn't Quest compatible

#

as I don't play on quest every day, I quite enjoy having a home with some crazy complicated PC only effects. At one point it was Treehouse in the Shade. Currently it's "Camera Test" because that's a fun home world

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 10:16 PM

#

A dummy Quest version of worlds isn't a terrible idea...

https://feedback.vrchat.com/bug-reports/p/log-into-default-home-on-quest-if-users-home-world-is-not-quest-compatible

Complete in "Open Beta" but no word if the fix was shipped to production

#

given that Open Beta has meant unity 2018 for a couple months now, I'm guessing they mean it's fixed in 2018 when that gets released after the holidays

native totem Dec 24, 2019, 10:21 PM

#

Oh, hi. Uhhh, im kinda just gonna be here...

#

Sorry if thats something that bugs you.

sharp bay Dec 24, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

"Fixed in 2019.4.1, which is currently in Open Beta. We don't have a Quest Open Beta, so this can't be tested by Community, but we've internally verified this is fixed." - Sounds like it

when you get an oculus quest for christmas and the cable you ordered for oculus link comes the next day

#

:d

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:12 PM

#

You could use ALVR in the meantime if you have good WiFi.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:29 PM

#

At least try it standalone

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:32 PM

#

@tawdry swift Have you? Everything looks so bad 😦

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:32 PM

#

I haven’t but from what I’ve heard it’s not super awful

#

If I did get past the Facebook gate and get one I’d at least try it standalone, you know

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

Streaming to it is ok, but in VRC natively, there's no anti-aliasing, textures are all very low res, everything is very polygonal, etc. The few worlds you can go to are all super basic in every way.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

The junkyard, crafty climbers? 😔

fading kraken Dec 25, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

how do I use ALVR?

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

I've not tried any climbing maps because Quest doesn't track your hands above your head, it just freaks out so I'm not sure that would work well.

fading kraken Dec 25, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

do I have to downlaod extra shit to my quest

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

I'll have to try out the Junkyard.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

They look identical on both platforms

#

Both are my maps if it wasn’t obvious

fading kraken Dec 25, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

wait

#

aww shit, I dont have a usb to usb C cable

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:37 PM

#

But a lot of vrc is the social part not just the poorly made maps by amateurs

#

Poorly optimised rather

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:38 PM

#

I know they're yours, but they kinda fall under the super basic category 😉 That's essentially all you can do on Quest, super stylised worlds to try and hide the limitations.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:38 PM

#

Yea none of them are feature rich

#

Maybe udon? 😔

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:43 PM

#

So yeah, as I said, your world gets by on being super stylised so you're able to use few textures and low res ones at that, but the world is still small. Definitely one of the better (best?) Quest maps out there. But even then, on my own in your world, I'm only getting ~36fps. So taking into account the optimisation and such, it still struggles.

#

(and it's aliased to hell due to all the sharp lines paired with the lack of anti-aliasing on the headset)

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

Frame rate shouldn’t be that bad

#

Might have fucked something up on the Christmas update

#

The map is one material one mesh..

azure mantle Dec 25, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

inb4 particles

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

I think so

violet lodge Dec 25, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

Yeah 36 fps for blue's world sounds pretty weird 🤔

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

I have snow fall didn’t realise it would be this bad

azure mantle Dec 25, 2019, 2:45 PM

#

wouldn't it actually be better if it was separated in chunks with occlusion culling?

#

cause now you're rendering the entire map every frame

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Yea but it’s so low poly anyway triping

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Isn't making it one mesh somewhat counterproductive? As it basically means you get zero culling?

azure mantle Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

I guess

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

lol, god damnit Trip

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Yes but it’s so low poly anyway

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Sorry, I'm wearing the headset and trying to type while looking at my desktop display via the nose hole.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:46 PM

#

Less than most avatars tbh 👀

fading kraken Dec 25, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

ehh

#

imma try the link beta

#

managed to find a cable

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

I was thinking of your other map when I went to this one. I wonder if the one I was thinking of was crafty climbers, let me go check.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

Cc is the cardboard one

fading kraken Dec 25, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

fucking hell

#

21.3 gb

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 2:49 PM

#

Ah, yeah I was thinking of CC.

#

CC looks much better because the softer colour pallet blends and doesn't create those sharp aliased edges.

#

But what is the music? It's like a perfect blend of Final Fantasy and Last of the Summer Wine, rofl.

#

Framerate is a solid 72 almost all the time though, with infrequent drops to mid 60s.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 2:55 PM

#

It’s Pikmin 3 garden of hope

#

That frame rate sounds about right

#

Might roll back that junkyard update

#

Or remove the snowy particles

azure mantle Dec 25, 2019, 2:58 PM

#

wait, are the snow particles using transparency?

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 3:03 PM

#

Yep I’m going to get rid of them ASAP

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 3:03 PM

#

Oh no, the cardinal rule of Quest, no transparency 😛

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 3:03 PM

#

I know but snow is coool

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

Haha. I remember when someone said no transparency, I was like... but... how the what? That rules out so many things.

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

I still use cutout because I can’t not

#

1 is profiling the junkyard for me and I have totally ducked something up and now Christmas is ruined

#

😔

sharp bay Dec 25, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

Aww, sorry Asis, I shouldn't have said anything.

azure mantle Dec 25, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

make it a toggle

tawdry swift Dec 25, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

It’s all good I’m sure the quest people will survive considering the avatars the see every day

jesus christ it takes a while for the oculus client to download

@livid rampart have you used vrchat on PC before? Sometimes your home world needs to be reset on pc if it's not quest compatible

livid rampart Dec 26, 2019, 1:27 AM

i have used it on pc before

#

but i havent even logged into my steam account on the auest yet

so theres no way for it to even know what my home world is

empty salmon Dec 26, 2019, 11:08 AM

Ok, I am not aware of any issues from germany: though telekom isn't known for their amazing service, it should work...

Do you use your own wireless router or one provided by Telekom? The issue is probably either on your end somehow so I would check your wireless settings... though vrchat did have some issues last night so maybe there is a connection problem

livid rampart Dec 26, 2019, 11:16 AM

i dont know

#

i mean- it's pretty wired xD

#

im sorry im really bad with tech stuff like this

but my wifi should be fine?
i can do everything else with no issue, inluding multiplayer games on pc

woeful cypress Dec 26, 2019, 1:30 PM

#

Telekom IS known for their direct / good service for me (Im on Telekom since ages) they're the actual DSL/Fibre net provider for many places that can actually do stuff unlike others.
(Ofc every company has good and bad callcenter people which you might end up with initially. cirBlech )
And yes, there shouldn't be general issue with them. If there are it's local infrastructure issues. (where it does not matter if you chose Telekom or a different "leasing" ISP for DSL / Fibre)

If you're using their Speedport routers, they can definitely be hit or miss and you should look into a propper Wireless AP eventually. cirComfy

...

fading kraken Dec 26, 2019, 4:14 PM

#

also a thing I don't get about the whole quest supported avatar stuff is that the quest is meant to have a polygon limit of 10k

#

but then it refuses to show you avatars that are under the limit

woeful cypress Dec 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

the default is 7,5k

fading kraken Dec 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

oh

woeful cypress Dec 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

you can raise the default to 10k

fading kraken Dec 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

how do you do that?

woeful cypress Dec 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

dunno, propably somewhere in the security / performance menue

sharp bay Dec 26, 2019, 10:39 PM

ruby halo Dec 27, 2019, 1:59 AM

#

How can I make it so I can see perf avatars without doing the click on avatar and pressing show avatar

azure mantle Dec 27, 2019, 2:05 AM

#

you can only set avatars to show automatically up to poor

#

which means 4 materials and 10000 polygons

#

anyone above that you'll always have to enable manually

#

because there's technically no limit to certain things after that, if you made all very poor avatars show automatically, loading into any populated world would crash you instantly just from the GPU and memory load of all the avatars

I feel like my movements and phone screen are like lagging behind its so bizarre

haughty coyote Dec 27, 2019, 4:47 AM

That's common when you're new to VR. It goes away after a few days of getting used to VR

#

Ok thx, tho when u put it that way it sounds like almost a drug [joke]

haughty coyote Dec 27, 2019, 4:50 AM

Your brain is just getting used to the different senses. VR over time also seems to train you to fight against motion sickness and other stuff as you get used to it

quiet tusk Dec 27, 2019, 4:50 AM

Ok, I've never rly had a prob with motion sickness

#

It definitely needs time to get used to tho

#

I've never worn glasses and it just feels like that screen and lenses are just always tracked to my eyes irl

Like glasses and it's kind of uncomfortable

can someone help me to put models in my world

livid rampart Dec 27, 2019, 1:41 PM

#

it wooorks!! Haha, trying out avatars and goofing off in front of a mirror is way too much fun 😂

#

a few questions tho-

#

how do i jump
how do expressions work
how do i record videos on the quest? if i close it only gives me the option to take a screenshot

#

oh also, does the character not turnnaround with me if i move my head/body (aka hands)?

#

i mean it seems not to work if i just move my body and arms, but idk if it works with the headset since.. well.. obviously i couldnt look in the mirror to check then 😂

spiral depot Dec 27, 2019, 2:00 PM

#

I can't speak to the controls on Quest, but your avatar's body turns with the headset unless you have a tracker for your waist (which I'm reasonably certain is not compatible with Quest, but there may be some workarounds if tethered)

livid rampart Dec 27, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

yeahh i definitely wanna do that someday haha, but not now

#

i managed to answer 1 and 3 myself

#

but i still dont know about 2

#

none of the characters i had seemed to change expression based on my fingers

#

do they just all not have any expressions..??

sharp bay Dec 27, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

That's done in Unity using animators

spiral depot Dec 27, 2019, 2:16 PM

#

It's entirely possible they don't have expressions. I'm not sure how common it is for Quest avatars

fading kraken Dec 27, 2019, 2:25 PM

turns out the 1050 is the worst graphics card in existance

@haughty coyote Try playing in more optimized/smaller worlds, make sure you're not showing a bunch of very poor performance avatar, and I'd stick to worlds with maybe 12 or less players possibly.

haughty coyote Dec 27, 2019, 4:46 PM

@short wraith oculus link works on it's own. VRChat will just think the quest with link is a rift S and launch the Rift S version. So yes

are you guys aware of a link avatar for the quest?

you could potentially upload a link avatar yourself

?

west bane Dec 27, 2019, 11:01 PM

#

Yes as long as you are ranked up to the level of new user it is possible to upload custom avatars.

#

You may not find something that is ready to upload to vrchat. If you find a rigged model you can get it ready to upload yourself.

My avatar doesn't have an animator and won't animate in vrchat is the error I get

And I'm not too sure how to deal with it

#

Does the top most part of the avatar have a animator script (where you would put the vrc_avatar_descriptor

you install unity on your pc

and use the sdk there to upload them to your vrchat account

and then they show up in the game

Sorry, I have a quick question: Is Oculus Quest, the new one bundled with Vader Immortal, does that still run differently then what a normal Oculus Rift S or HTC Cosmos would show in VR Chat? As in, on a Oculus Quest, some avatar's don't show up, right?

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:01 PM

#

but oculus link beta exists

#

if your pc can run an oculus rift S

#

it can run the quest

dawn wigeon Dec 28, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

Oculus Link Beta?

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

https://support.oculus.com/444256562873335/

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

But the Microphone doesn't work on the Link making it pretty useless right now, no?

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

uhmm yeah it does work

#

its pretty good too

#

the rift S doesen't come with built in headphones or mic

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

Was that fixed in a patch then?

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

oh wait

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

Rift S most definitely has a built in Mic

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

you mean link

haughty coyote Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

What? The rift S has a mic and speakers the same as quest

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

well you would use your own headset anyways if you wanted link

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

... what? Well no, the whole point of an all in one headset is that you use the built in functionality, e.g. mic and headphones.

#

So anyway, does or does not the microphone work with Link currently?

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

well crossplatform HMDs are new tech

#

idk actually

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

Well, less "new tech" and more a "dirty hack" but still.

fading kraken Dec 28, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

cause when I tried, it was dogshit, screenmelt effect = eye cancer

#

cause fuck my gpu

dawn wigeon Dec 28, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

Why I was asking, is that the Rift's are sold out where I am, but they do have the WMD for cheap. I have a rig that can run a VR Headset pretty darn well, and most games at Ultra with no slowdown.

aw ok, thanks

sharp bay Dec 28, 2019, 7:25 PM

Basically the Quest isn't anywhere near as powerful as a full PC and thus the worlds and avatars can't just be straight ported over. Even if it was, it's a different architecture and the content needs to be recompiled and rebuilt explicitly for Android instead.

worldly rapids Dec 29, 2019, 3:29 AM

#

A lot of avatars are on Quest now, just a good portion are at very poor performance. Be sure to at least change your minimal displayed avatars based on performance to Poor so you can see more avatars. As for the very poor ones I honestly wouldn't bother with those even though you can see them by hitting "Show Avatar" on them.

tbh I don't understand what makes the quest different from pc based still

worldly rapids Dec 29, 2019, 4:04 AM

#

The Quest is not as powerful as the PC so it has different avatar requirements. The Quest version of the game is on Android instead of PC as well so it's uploaded on Android platform and PC so everyone can see it the same way us PC users can't see a Quest avatar if it's only uploaded on Quest. Very tired, I hope this is as easy to understand as I think it is. lol

My favorite that I saw was someone who uploaded some anime girl on the PC version of the avatar and some random ugly dude for the Quest version so PC users were like, "Oh, that's cute." And the Quest users were just cracking up at the PC users.

Regarding the quest versus PC avatar matter, What about if you plug thr quest in with a Link cable and render graphics on the PC

azure mantle Dec 29, 2019, 4:30 AM

#

then thats just running on a PC

#

those that wanted to run PC on Quest and had the rig for it have been doing so with ALVR and VD for months

#

It doesn't bring anyone anywhere

#

The Quest is simply low-spec, the fact it can run VRChat is due to the limitations on avatars, which are actually pretty forgiving considering how much a 10k poly 2 material avatar with hundreds of blendshapes will actually cost on the gpu

fading kraken Dec 29, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

heh thats cool, the AMD FX-6300 can even run vr, but not very well

azure mantle Dec 29, 2019, 3:48 PM

fading kraken Dec 29, 2019, 3:48 PM

but hopefully an upgrade from GTX 1050 to a RX580 should stop the screenmelt effect

a really small upgrade

like 1050 to 1050ti,

maybe a little more like from 1050 to 1060

so you can still interact with them

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:29 AM

#

Oh like stickman? Or floating arms?

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:29 AM

#

floaty arms sadly... but it's ok

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:29 AM

#

Aw haha

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:30 AM

#

a lot of people are polite and will switch to a quest compatible avatar if you are talking to them, in my experience

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:30 AM

#

What about microphone? Do i need a separate hardware to not sound noisy?

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:30 AM

#

it's still a good chunk of the irreplaceable experience that is social vr

#

not all worlds, some avatars are floaty arms but everything else from the experience is there

#

quest mic issues aren't a hardware problem - I think it is just a slow processor and sometimes gets choppy

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:31 AM

#

Yes i feel like I’m missing out on a lot in desktop mode 😦

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:31 AM

when it works it's ok

#

you are :-p I think it's worth it if you have $400

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

I hope it goes on sale soon

azure mantle Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

itll never go on sale

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

and it can be upgraded to a pc headset with virtual desktop or a link cable...

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

😦

azure mantle Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

rift cv1 never got discounted even up until EOL

#

on black friday, its the same price

#

but they give you a bundled game or an oculus store gift card

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:32 AM

#

Ohh

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:33 AM

#

so it's a good future proof entry level headset

sudden sparrow Dec 30, 2019, 7:33 AM

#

I see, thank you 😊

azure mantle Dec 30, 2019, 7:33 AM

#

rift s and quest are already incredibly low-priced, Oculus is barely making any profit on each unit

#

and they bank on software sales

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 7:33 AM

#

yeah I wouldn't wait for a sale. if you want VR, cough up the money. quest is pretty good bang for buck wise, especially if you count not having to get a good PC

@tidal cloud are you using the oculus quest or are you using a link cable with the PC?

tidal cloud Dec 30, 2019, 11:26 AM

I sort of typed in the wrong chatroom, I actually use windows MR as it was really cheap and has inside tracking. For £112 it's done me very well so far

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 11:26 AM

some cheap headsets might not have headsets or mics....so you would need a headset

empty salmon Dec 30, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

@shy spear on quest, it's really fun to play by walking across your play area and rotating your ingame character (use the snap turning). Try to avoid ingame movement controls if you can

#

it's also a great way to get exercise, and you feel like you're walking across the world, rotating your room as you go within the virtual world

sharp bay Dec 30, 2019, 12:34 PM

Just make sure you don't accidentally walk out your house and down the street

sharp bay Dec 30, 2019, 5:42 PM

#

Yup

#

Oculus are money grabbing assholes so it's more complicated than it needs to be, but basically you sideload VD onto the headset, download VD Streamer onto your PC and that's basically it. It'll just handle the rest automatically. You need a solid and fast 5Ghz connection though.

woeful cypress Dec 30, 2019, 5:45 PM

#

I dont know what "money grabbing assholes" has to do with not allowing third party content officially to keep the ecosystem closed

#

Oculus does sell their stuff at reasonable prices at least, same for replacement parts.

sharp bay Dec 30, 2019, 5:46 PM

#

You kinda answered in the second half of the first sentence there...

woeful cypress Dec 30, 2019, 5:47 PM

Keeping a ecosystem closed has way more reasons then that.
Actually, link doesn't cost you a penny either.

They could have sold it as an app if they wanted to.

Clean the lens with your heated breath until it fogs, wipe it off with a lint free cloth and jump into the headset within the few seconds. Works 100% of the time for me.

I’m a quest user and I imported some avatars to vrchat, but only other quest users can see me, how can I get pc users to see me as well?

sharp bay Dec 31, 2019, 9:21 AM

#

@fleet cape Switch the Unity platform to Windows and upload again, it'll recompile it for PC.

#

Make sure to turn on the local cache first which will speed up any future changes or switches considerably.

west bane Dec 31, 2019, 9:45 PM

yes, it isn't very hard

you add the vrc_station script to the part of the avatar you want to have the chair

I recommend also adding a mesh filter as well as it will give you more control of the highlight.

when the game allowed to use (oculus rift) is that mean all oculus like oculus rift S ...quest.. ?!

that's referring to the Oculus Rift & s as you need to go on the quest Oculus store to pick up vrchat on the quest

You mean If they say oculus rift then also I can use oculus rift S @jagged trench

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 6:38 AM

Yes. They have the same controls

olive creek Jan 1, 2020, 6:38 AM

So the game depends on controllers @haughty coyote

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 6:40 AM

Steamvr allows you to remap controllers if they don't support it properly. But rift and rift S are designed to be compatible with eachother for games

every now and then when I'm playing vrchat it either gives me a black screen or it randomally sends me to my home world after playing for like 10 - 15 minutes

#

it even happens on the vrchat hub

cerulean garden Jan 1, 2020, 12:32 PM

#

I found the issue. It happens whenever someone tries to load a avatar.

#

Would anyone happen to know how to fix this issue?

so as someone who's room is too small to get the oculus rift s and have room to play in, how has development on the quest been since launch? are more and more rooms and avatars cross platform by the day?

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 9:07 PM

#

If you did get the Oculus Link for the Quest. You will pretty see almost all the maps and the pc avatars will appear as not robot's anymore

#

Just letting all the quest users know about it just in case if you didn't know

#

about it

latent drift Jan 1, 2020, 9:08 PM

#

Could you give me some pointers on where i could buy an oculus link? i'm assuming it links the quest to the pc

The Oculus Link is currently "coming soon"

because

latent drift Jan 1, 2020, 9:10 PM

#

i wanna be able to enjoy vrchat and other vr games, but if i buy the rift s my room would be too small to enjoy other games

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 9:11 PM

#

Go to the Oculus Quest website and click the "Quest" After that there should be a icon called: "Accessories"

latent drift Jan 1, 2020, 9:12 PM

#

but it's still coming soon

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 9:12 PM

I am not sure when it comes out

#

Have you seen a video people using the Oculus link with VrChat?

#

on youtube

latent drift Jan 1, 2020, 9:14 PM

#

the fact that it exists and it's gonna come out soon excites me though

#

cause vrchat is a game i can comfily play in my room anyway

#

and other games i've heard run really good on the quest

haughty coyote Jan 1, 2020, 9:14 PM

I was thinking it will come out in January

#

Not sure yet

slate laurel Jan 1, 2020, 9:23 PM

@latent drift You can use third party cables for it as well (just be sure that people say it works with Link), and for now the Link is in beta but people say it's working great so yeah

@latent drift the official link cable came out and is now backorder. Or maybe it haven't been released yet in your country. You can use a decent quality cable. Look for the Anker cable on Amazon. Take one that is usbC to standard USB and that have very high transfer data. There's a red one that is thick and works.

@haughty coyote not yet the latest version took the mic out. Need to use an external mic or something

Does VRChat on Quest just have issues

west bane Jan 3, 2020, 12:31 AM

#

What kind of issues?

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 12:34 AM

#

like randomly returning you to the VRChat hub during playing

#

and random black screens when joining worlds

#

and when you join a world the % gets to 100% then goes to 0.00% then makes you return to the main VRChat hub

#

@west bane

west bane Jan 3, 2020, 12:39 AM

#

Those issues are on pc as well

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 12:40 AM

#

ah

#

but they are easier to fix on PC

#

and its really annoying on Quest

#

because like 5 minutes into playing I get sent to the VRChat hub

#

anyone who I've talked to on the Quest says that they don't experience this issue

empty salmon Jan 3, 2020, 12:58 AM

#

Randomly going home is a quest issue yes.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:01 AM

#

will it be fixed?

#

or is there any fixes?

empty salmon Jan 3, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

Be on a stable wifi connection (low interference, use 802.11ac) backed by good internet service. Avoid laggy worlds with too many people.

#

It's a bug but I think triggered by lag spikes

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

cant do anything about the wifi

#

but it's pretty stable

#

the worlds I join have like less than 10 people and I still get disconnected

#

do you think the bug will be fixed in the future?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Well you can get proper wifi gear. (especially if you don't have 5 GHz yet)

#

So yes you can do something about the wifi.

#

Sometimes switching channel might allready be enough.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

I have 5GHz wifi

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

How far away? 5 GHz does not go well trough walls and objects

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

its downstairs :#

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

Yeah, that's suboptimal for 5 GHz

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

I also have a 2.4GHz connection

#

but I seem to disconnect more when I use that

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:24 AM

#

2.4 is typically heavily overcrowded

#

It has a higher reach so more people interfere with other people as ranges are longer. And the more limited bandwidths makes that issue really worse.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

do you recommend sticking to the 5GHz or use the 2.4?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

5 GHz

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

alright

#

is there anything I can do to try to solve the issue or do I just wait until they release a patch?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

Cus it doesn't only have more bandwidth but also less interference cus your neighbors 2.4 will reach you the 5 not so you have it for you

#

Patches won't solve actual connectivity problems

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

ah

#

I thought it was just a Quest problem

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

You could just get a 5 GHz access point for your room

#

Nah. Many laptops / wifi users on PC also have that.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

darn that sucks then

#

:(

#

I really like VRChat

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

Get a 5 GHz access point and install it in your room

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:28 AM

#

how would I do that?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:28 AM

#

You need a lan cable in the room.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

ah

#

we're looking to get one of those for my computer

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

Good

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

since the wifi doesn't seem to like my computer

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

You definitely want lan there

#

You can then get a switch

#

That can split one lan to many

#

So you can have the pc and a access point connected to it

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

what do you need for a access point though

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

Nearly any router can do it.

#

Most routers can also act as a switch too

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

so I just buy another router?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

Depends on how good you know how to set them up.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

I have no experience at all lol

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

Try looking up a video about access points to get an idea.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:34 AM

#

so the issue I'm having is a wifi problem? and the only way that it'll get fixed is if I get better wifi?

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

While improvements are always possible, you like will still get a better experience with a 5 GHz account point in the same room for the quest.

cerulean garden Jan 3, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

I think I may hold back on that option for now

#

as I don't think I'll get a lan outlet in my room for a while

#

I think it could be a vrchat problem though since this doesn't happen on any of the games I've tried that are online

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

Vrchat uses quite a bit of bandwidth

sharp bay Jan 3, 2020, 12:21 PM

#

Common issue. The official word is that it's your wifi dropping very briefly, but I had it happen all the time on a solid wifi connection. It's basically just buggy. I'd avoid manually showing any avatars if you're doing that at all.

jade jay Jan 3, 2020, 12:23 PM

#

Oculus Link or ALVR/VirtualDesktop?

#

with ALVR/VirtualDesktop, you'll need to re-set your view height in SteamVR, right-click the status window and click "Run Room Setup"

ALVR?

#

#

Virtual Desktop is easier to use than ALVR, but is paid. Worth considering if you want simplicity going forward (and doesn't require you to be at your PC to initiate the connection either).

#

Router should be ok as long as there are no stone/brick walls between you and it.

glossy wagon Jan 3, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

nah its like 6 or 3 feet from my pc

#

FYI for ALVR, you can set a static ip address in the router for specific devices so you don't need to always connect again to your quest from pc. If you have a decent router you most likely can do that. You'll still need to start the program at the very least.

Im so tired I thought it was MAC address instead of IP, big fukin meme https://raytracing-benchmarks.are-really.cool/763wcki.png

#

Shouldn't they be able to automatically identify the quest by device name on the network cirThink

azure mantle Jan 3, 2020, 9:45 PM

#

They should tbh

#

or even by MAC address since all Quests would start with the same manufacturer identifier

#

manufracture might yield who knows what future, but i guess you could ping the limited entries then still

azure mantle Jan 3, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

Time to go implement that shit into V7 and be the hero nobody needs

#

While am at it, I'll put a touch of Invert Colors on the whole UI.

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

other alternative might be doing a "broadcast" containing the IP while in connection mode.

#

There is mutiple ways they could do auto discovery.

azure mantle Jan 3, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

well, auto-discovery of a single, known device, really doesn't need a broadcast

woeful cypress Jan 3, 2020, 9:49 PM

#

Look, im just saying "there would be many ways to implement it, it's stupid not to be there" cirBaka

ikik, I was just adding on to that

pseudo token Jan 3, 2020, 11:32 PM

#

Well that is something I'll look forward to to have less setup to do. Now alvr just needs to start in background asap your pc turns on. That's probably possible with if you manually setup it in windows but having that as an setting would be nice for cloud pc users

#

Also TripingPC, the place your screenshots are hosted on always puzzles me. It's pretty neat tho

Not sure if it's an option, but VD is just so much better

glossy wagon Jan 4, 2020, 3:11 AM

#

cool i dont have 20usd

quiet tusk Jan 4, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

Im not entirely sure and I'm still a wee bit confused but downloading custom songs onto beat saber requires connecting the quest to a computer right?

#

I know about bmbf but rly I still have no idea what that is

#

And general help pointing me in the right direction would be apreciated

woeful cypress Jan 4, 2020, 4:13 AM

#

You should look up a beat saber community for that ideally.
This here is targeted to the Quest with VRChat like most of this Discord.

Aight

Aight thx

#

U know i completely forgot this is a server about vrchat and not just vr in general

#

Hey, one of my friends is thinking of getting a quest. Is there a way to hook up a quest to your PC so you can avoid the hardware limitations the quest has on VRChat?

#

Like a way to get around "Quest mode" or whatever and use your PC hardware instead of the built in quest hardware?

@wheat wave thats been an official Oculus feature since october

#

get the rift app on your PC, a usb c cable to your desktop, done

#

ask someone who actually use Oculus Link about it
