you will get video compression

#

altenratives include virtual desktop which, once again, i dont have a quest so i cant say more about it

Aren't vrlow and vrhigh graphics settings supposed to enable antialiasing? Talking about the settings you can access by holding shift on keyboard when starting vrchat. Not seeing any difference in vr when compared to desktoplow setting, the settings only enable antialiasing in desktop. The aliasing has always been annoying and supersampling makes no difference, actually looks like it gets a little bit blurrier...

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

Antialiasing and a few other things that only affect certain maps if the creators use them

#

I.E. Aggressive LOD and culling in The Great Pug when using DesktopLow.

#

And supposedly stuff pertaining to mirror resolution. but I don't see it myself...

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

Ugh if only the supersampling worked properly. I don't get it why we can't choose to enable the antialiasing regardless of map creators' post processing choices. I think I did read on old posts that it is recommended to not touch antialiasing with maps, too.

Yeah I guess I could have mentioned I am using ALVR

That's still PC

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

That's still using--

empty salmon Jan 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

Though it very well could interfere with anti aliasing

#

Due to video encoding

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

I could have sworn supersampling used to work at least.

#

And I am wondering if it's not only me having these problems with pcvr streaming

#

It's kinda grey area between pc and quest but I decided to post here

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

@pseudo token Steam's SuperSampling works at a lower level than VRChat and maps have no effect on it.

trim pecan Jan 4, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

I just got my quest and i mostly wanted it to play Vrchat since the go needs ALVR to play it

#

i wish we could see pc players' avatars tho.. that is what makes me kinda sad is that

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

@azure mantle You don't use the anti-aliasing functionality of map post processing. VRChat's antialiasing is based on your graphics settings in VRChat and then after that, the supersampling your headset is set to.

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

I know

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

@trim pecan I mean it should be common sense, it's not powerful hardware.

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 5:01 PM

I wasn't the one asking

Well yeah.

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

the message right under

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

LOD has nothing to do with AA.

#

@pseudo token The VRHigh/VRLow/DesktopLow settings DO all affect VR and they DO change the game's VR anti-aliasing, it's just it depends on whether your headset is good enough to notice. Also supersampling should also make an obvious difference. Not sure why it's not for you.

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

I never said it did

#

Did I miss any punctuation?

#

Im not mentally disabled.

#

The VRChat graphics options change the game's own antialiasing settings, these are NOT managed by worlds. I referred to UGC being affected by graphics options in the sense of LOD, mipmapping and cull distance.

#

But you do you. I explained this twice.

haughty coyote Jan 4, 2020, 5:08 PM

I walked into my wall today

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:08 PM

Read what you said again. "Antialiasing and a few other things that only affect certain maps if the creators use them" - Creators don't need to "use" them, they're active at all times.

azure mantle Jan 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

ok

I didnt think I would have to do this

No, let me do some more r/copypasta

Did I miss any punctuation?

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

No, I think you have the problem here. You're literally telling people you didn't mean the thing you said. Not sure if you're aware, but what you wrote, doesn't mean what you think it did.

#

Being a cocky twat about it doesn't make it any less wrong.

#

Also being a cocky twat just makes you sound like an asshole, so don't.

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

I'm aware supersampling is not affected by maps but I am definitely puzzled how there is no difference in antialiasing with the different settings. And more so by the supersampling's behaviour in vrchat. I'll need to do some testing to see if the scrcpy capture is different to the quest's and if supersampling works in other games and steamvr

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

@pseudo token The difference was obvious on my Vive and Index so when using ALVR or VD it should still be obvious. Not quite sure why it's not having an affect for you.

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

I see now. The difference is so tiny, I could have sworn it was way more visible in past. Even 1.06 was quite a bit better. 1,5 barely makes difference now (these were done in vrchat) and supersampling above or below never affected a game (Horizon beyond) and steamvr grid home resolution.

#

I can supersample no mans sky fine too

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Possibly, the video compression will smooth the image if you're using the Quest, so that could be why it's harder to notice.

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

Still, even going to 24% resolution for the game or globally and restarting steamvr made no difference to resolution so no idea what's up with that. I used to supersample steamvr's home in past for better ui, too.

#

Eh wouldn't be surprised if it's some random problem with having new mobo and cpu

sharp bay Jan 4, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

Sounds like it's not actually applying, 20% should make everything blurry as hell.

pseudo token Jan 4, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

And of course could be some steamvr issue causing it. Guess I'll have to live with jaggies

dry quarry Jan 4, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Do y’all think we’ll ever get quest exclusive worlds so we can see every avatar for once

woeful cypress Jan 4, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

Im not sure if quest only instances are planned, i doubt it.

In theory you could make a world that only really allows quest users to play in if you know how the both platforms work.

obsidian zealot Jan 4, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

Quest only instances already are possible and exist

#

If you only upload a windows build, it’s pc exclusive, if you only upload an android build, it’s quest exclusive, if you upload both, it’s crossplay

#

quest exclusive avatars can also exist the same way, I’ve made them, but they are kinda pointless, why would you want pc users to see a robot etc

#

But they did make a placeholder robot with a quest symbol on its chest for specifically that reason

#

And it gets used

#

@dry quarry

#

So if you you honestly want to make a world only quest users can enter, you are free to do so. Pc users won’t even find it in search

haughty coyote Jan 4, 2020, 10:07 PM

I was looking around for a certain Jotaro avatar that can use star platinum, so I found it online, so imma have to run it thro unity using a youtube tutoriel and finally be able to use em. Ahh

#

So much for just a little jojo avatar lol

acoustic relic Jan 5, 2020, 5:12 AM

#

Is there any major changes with the graphic settings? (when holding shift before start btw)

Like if I went from vr low to desktop low would it look similar or worst

azure mantle Jan 5, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

Just try it

#

Some graphics snobs can't live without antialiasing

And others just want the god damn frames.

short rock Jan 7, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Is it possible to allow the Quest to see PC avatars / access PC worlds at the expense of performance? I know they're blocked since the Quest has limited processing power but it'd be nice to see PC avatars for screenshots and stuff

#

I presume not since I couldn't find the settings anywhere but it's worth an ask I guess

haughty coyote Jan 7, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

People can upload avatars that have as many polygons as normal PC avatars and while they're blocked by default, you could enable their avatar manually.

The issue is the quest runs on an Android build of vrchat, so even in that case, it can't see a PC quality avatar unless it's uploaded to the Android version as well as the PC version

short rock Jan 7, 2020, 7:53 PM

Anyone know about the desert test world found in the Cafe Leblanc attic?

solid temple Jan 8, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

We really need the avatar poly limit raised to 15k and that rated as Very Poor, because it then lets people who at least don't wanna decimate a decent VRoid avatar to still make something easy.

#

Then if they want to optimize further, they can.

tawdry wyvern Jan 8, 2020, 2:59 AM

Probably not a quest model

languid copper Jan 8, 2020, 6:51 AM

#

it was

#

i saw someone wear it in the west pug

#

but it wasnt cloneable and the person who made it didnt have an avatar world

#

ok i found an image does anyone know this avatar??

📎 unknown.png

slate fern Jan 8, 2020, 7:37 AM

#

Yeah, that model is not typically a quest model. It's an edited TDA vase with other edited parts attached, and it looks like it uses dynamic bones

pine chasm Jan 8, 2020, 7:50 AM

#

TDA model being even close to quest level, nah

#

They have more textures and materials than friggin edges and polys

mellow gust Jan 8, 2020, 12:51 PM

#

Well the model that is impossible to upload if using the same unity package would be one that's called "Goth bitch sweater"

#

📎 06-05-54.860.png

#

When you try to upload it avatar changing the shaders to vrchat/mobile/(name of shader) and get rid of all the stuff like dynamic bones, audio sources etc. a message will appear that says "This avatar is too large for this platform" and will tell you that the limit an avatar can be is 10mb and the current avatar is 15 something mb

#

I was trying to optimize with decimation but even if you dedicate it to 70k polygons it still says the message of "this avatar is too large for this platform" and will show the new mb whether its 13 or 12mb when the limit is 10

bronze glade Jan 8, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

Thats why you dont use vrcm and you can easilly decimate it and atlas them

mellow gust Jan 8, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

Didnt get the model from VRCM because it doesn't exist there and never has

plain flower Jan 8, 2020, 1:10 PM

#

@mellow gust youre trying to optimize around PC assets, not quest assets

#

check the vrc documentation the triangle limit for quest is uh...ill actually let you find out

#

dynb and audio is not allow4d on quest avatars

#

(its actually 10k tris, sorry)

#

your only hope is retopology

dusk forge Jan 8, 2020, 2:04 PM

#

ok so I got a question. will the oculus quest players ever get the "shaders" feature? or will it only be computer players?

grim orchid Jan 8, 2020, 2:08 PM

#

i dont think so. a quest is a realitivly small machine. in order to play games. its kind of like its own small computer. if you want to do heavily intensive things on vr (wether it be graphical or workload related) you'll probably need a PC with beefy specs.

dusk forge Jan 8, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

i mean there has to be a way they could somehow optimize the shaders to where the oculus quest could run. there has to be at least one way they can

grim orchid Jan 8, 2020, 2:11 PM

#

unfortunatly i doubt they could add jt without decreasing the quality of the shaders by a large margin. the way i see. specs wise. it isnt happening anytime soon. at least not with compact headset vr hardware thats only ~500 bucks

#

they could give it better hardware but then it gets bulky or a LOT more expensive

dusk forge Jan 8, 2020, 2:17 PM

#

true but i mean i would still play the game if it had the crappiest looking shaders they could give it. at least we are getting something. am I right?

grim orchid Jan 8, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

then you might as well not have them at all xD the quest already runs hot playing realitivly high demand games on steam vr so i dont see it being able to run much else unless your willing to risk your headset for an aesthetic cuz if that overheats its over xD

~~why are you on discord at school?~~

dusk forge Jan 8, 2020, 2:59 PM

because i'm bored

#

ok so did you know that there is now a vr headset that has EYE TRACKING now? it's called the "Pico Neo 2"

blazing sparrow Jan 8, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

ok, my school bans everything. But I'm on holidays and yes

No, I'm in Canada right now.

i mean i was a few days ago so i mean

... but I'm 13, I need sleep.

dusk forge Jan 8, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

i'm 16. i don't need sleep. lol

#

so i don't remember if i told you what kind of vrchat stream i'm doing but basically i'm going to try and scare some people during the stream. i guess you would call it a scare stream. but yeah

#

i won't be using my in game mic of course because i need to be silent and scare worthy

#

should be a good vrchat day for me XD

blazing sparrow Jan 8, 2020, 3:09 PM

#

ok

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

Should be

#

I use energizer ultimate lithium batteries xd

#

Batteries last a long time on Quest controller doesn't use much like other controllers I use

polar flicker Jan 8, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

The higher mAh the more charge the battery can store just keep in mind battery may have lower mAh then stated

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

Does vive trackers work while using oculus link or no?

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

what are some disadvantages of the quest

#

because i want to save money buy i wanna know what obstacles will come with getting it

scenic rapids Jan 8, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

my biggest gripe is that you can't see many peoples avatars or use them as the more demanding ones are pc-only

#

there's been a community built up on PC and as I quest user I can definitely feel a slight disconnect from myself and people on pc

#

I've only had it for a bit so other people might be able to tell you more though

cloud shard Jan 8, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

I’ve only had it for a bit too and I’d definitely say in terms of VRC the only downside is the lack of avatars and generally the lower resolution but otherwise I’ve found it great for just having fun and chilling and being portable

pseudo token Jan 8, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Usually rechargeable batteries are 1,2v so keep that in mind if you play games like beat saber. It may cause issues. If you don't buy and use a special type of battery, its voltage will go down as it discharges so after a while 1,2v rechargeable will be near 1v and stay near that value until it is empty. Nonchargeables drop faster from max voltage but they should still be higher in voltage in the end. They are more commonly sold in 1,5v than rechargeables.

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

if i could get ANY other vr headset and stuff what would you recommend

plain flower Jan 8, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

odyssey+ or rift s since they are in a similar price class

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

what about the new steam vr

scenic rapids Jan 8, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

index is $1,000

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

The valve index is very good, but it's $1000 so you need to decide if it's worth it for you and within your budget. You pay a premium to have the best, but it's not 2x as good as the other headsets for what you pay for. If that makes sense

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

ok yea, i can afford it but idk if it's worth it

rose blaze Jan 8, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

Not sure why but everytime I start up vrc on Quest it puts me in the loading screen loop, which I can only get out of if I uninstall and reinstall the game. Anyone know if the game is just bugged right now or if I just have to uninstall and reinstall everytime I close out the game or if it crashes?

keen patrol Jan 8, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

I'm seriously considering starting a weekly or bi-weekly Quest meetup

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

augh you know what i'll buy the quest

#

idk when but i will

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

Quest users are really chill to hang with more no Offence to the pc users but yeh

#

From my experience

#

Haven't met a toxic quest user yet.

jagged trench Jan 8, 2020, 6:04 PM

#

that's probably because the quest users actually had to pay money to be there by buying their Quest so that filters out the low investment players who are just here to shitpost

azure mantle Jan 8, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

and from that everyone also has vr

scenic rapids Jan 8, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

I'd be down for that

#

sounds interesting

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

are there any other wireless vr headsets

plain flower Jan 8, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

Any vive with wireless addon, vr-ready pc not included @charred marlin

keen patrol Jan 8, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

quest is a desktop kiddo filter

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 7:26 PM

The Oculus link is now out in the UK.

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

@keen patrol what does that mean

#

wait nevermind i'm sorry

#

@plain flower what would you say is the best wireless vr headset

polar flicker Jan 8, 2020, 8:15 PM

#

Vive Pro with wireless module

haughty coyote Jan 8, 2020, 8:15 PM

#

Best functially is probably the Vive pro with wireless... But that doesn't justify the price of it

scenic rapids Jan 8, 2020, 8:15 PM

#

vive wireless doesn't seem worth the price

#

just put pulleys on your ceiling if wires are that much of a problem

polar flicker Jan 8, 2020, 8:15 PM

#

No, but they asked about "best"

plain flower Jan 8, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

good question

#

@charred marlin id say that quest is probably the overall best wireless HMD experience. But, the vive pro is probably the best wireless headset for PCVR.

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 9:12 PM

#

i'm really sorry but what's the difference

#

i know absolutely nothing about anything

cloud shard Jan 8, 2020, 9:24 PM

#

Quest users are chill because they just want to have fun and aren’t there for insane FPS or RTX or whatever

polar flicker Jan 8, 2020, 9:41 PM

#

I assure you PCVR users aren't for insane FPS or RTX either :D. You can have more detailed avatars and worlds though and because you don't need to optimize them as much as with Quest content it is easier to make them look good as well

rose blaze Jan 8, 2020, 9:45 PM

#

Honestly the difference from Quest to PC in vrc at least is rediculous. On Quest everyone is chill since the coolest thing an avatar can even have is an aura effect. Then on PC it's mostly filled with crashers or avatars that shake the hell out of your screen

cloud shard Jan 8, 2020, 9:46 PM

#

Well two things:

some pc/high end vr users I’ve seen mock quest users and constantly talk about the graphics
I once had some pc users actually say “how did you survive our nuke” so...

rose blaze Jan 8, 2020, 9:48 PM

#

Pretty much. Quest avatars are WAY more limited on what they can have compared to PC. No custom shaders, point lights, cameras, dynamic bones, audio sources, etc.

#

I know worlds are pretty limited too, as for shaders and video players from what I know. And of course file size can't be too large which is always annoying

west bane Jan 8, 2020, 9:54 PM

#

Shaders in worlds are mostly limited to the hardware itself and performance.

#

I'm upload a world to quest with a shader that had grabpass on it, never making that mistake again.

charred marlin Jan 8, 2020, 10:56 PM

what about other games? like beatsaber?

make two versions

how do i do that?

Amazon even sells batteries with their own brand on them.

yo just wondering does the oculus Rift S support all avatars? cos i know quest doesnt

polar flicker Jan 12, 2020, 12:35 PM

#

Oculus Quest runs android version of VRChat and for avatar to be seen it is required it is uploaded for Quest which has its limitations. Same story with PC avatars, avatar needs to have PC version uploaded for it to display for PC users. Rift S is a PCVR headset so it will display any avatar that has been uploaded as PC avatar and it will not display avatars that has been uploaded as Quest only @haughty coyote

haughty coyote Jan 12, 2020, 12:38 PM

#

so i will be able to see all avatars apart from ones made for quest exclusively?

polar flicker Jan 12, 2020, 12:39 PM

Yes

haughty coyote Jan 12, 2020, 12:42 PM

Ok thanks for you help 😀

polar flicker Jan 12, 2020, 12:45 PM

Actually Quest is the only headset that can display all avatars both Quest and PC as you can connect it to PC and use as any PCVR headset

@hearty terrace weird becausei got mine with those batteries

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 9:55 PM

#

So this may have already been asked nor do I know where to find the answer if it was already asked but will the vrchat for the quest get an update for hand tracking?

worthy dune Jan 12, 2020, 9:56 PM

#

short answer, no

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 9:56 PM

#

Long answer?

worthy dune Jan 12, 2020, 9:58 PM

#

long answer, hand tracking in its current state is not practical for use in any game. your hands have to be seen by all 4 cameras on the quest and even then, you'll lose tracking frequently from simple things like having your hands occlude one another.

#

in addition, vrchat has way more important things under its belt to take care of than implementing barely functioning hand tracking (udon, ui overhaul, security, etc)

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 10:00 PM

#

So then they'll probably have to wait till hand tracking gets better? Since I'm sure those at oculus are still trying to get the tracking better.

worthy dune Jan 12, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

even when its out of beta, it still wouldnt make sense to add. the tracking will still be jank compared to just using controllers. it would just be impractical

#

how would you be expected to move around or access your menu?

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

Well the future of the quest holds many options for things.

#

And for thing like that well I'm sure some thing could be made possible

#

Very unlikely

#

But I don't want to lose hope 😂😂

worthy dune Jan 12, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

i still dont see what kind of advantage having hand tracking in vrchat quest would have besides flexing on pc users

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

that would the exact and only reason

worthy dune Jan 12, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

see, theres my point

ornate dome Jan 12, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

Has me thinking that there might be future tech that could help with hand tracking though.

#

And there's still the fact that the hand tracking option was released way earlier than it should have

#

Maybe there can be a release of like a ring that will help with tracking. Made to act like the rings on the controller.

#

They're quite on the verge of making an advancement of tech in itself with hand tracking.

scenic rapids Jan 13, 2020, 3:53 AM

hand tracking was probably released so early so that it would generate more media attention and draw more people towards the quest for the holiday season

#

it's still beta as far as I know so not much is expected in its quality

It feels like this channel os just people asking about hand tracking now

haughty coyote Jan 13, 2020, 10:19 AM

#

How come some models you can see on the quest, but some avatars you can’t?

bronze glade Jan 13, 2020, 10:22 AM

#

Because most models arent made for quest

#

They are made for pc only

#

Quest models need to meet some strict reqirements and yploaded seperately

scenic rapids Jan 13, 2020, 2:08 PM

#

if it's a perf blocked robot you can select the avatar and choose to show it but if it's a robot with a picture of the avatar or a yellow error you can't see the avatar at all on quest

VRChat Quest supports non-synced video players. Meaning you can use a remotely hosted video file for music and stream it in a world, but you cant have synced play pause for everyone. nor have the video pick up where everyone else is for late joiners.

#

There are numerous reasons why sync video players aren't implemented on Quest, one of them being how painful it would be to get youtube-dl working on the Android build without some crazy shenanigans that aren't worth anyone's time. Especially when Bigscreen is already available if you wanna setup a video party with some friends on Quest.

So I played like 8 months ago on quest and I crashed sometimes but it was bearable but now after I gave my old quest back it was rented and got another one Couse I realy missed vr chat and beatsaber im crashing like ALL THE TIME and not just me DOZENS of people tent to crash way more than in the old days does anybody know WHY that is a thing also that occurring black screen is new to me and a VERRY bad issue

Hello! I would like to ask if anybody by some miracle has the very specific experience of using Oculust Quest Link on a PC with a 980ti, and I would like to know if by some miracle it works normally

#

I've seen a lot of people on the internet say they tried it and it works and others say it doesn't

#

So now I am confused as to which one I should buy

#

(The 980ti isn't officially supported, that's why I'm asking)

keen patrol Jan 13, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

which one of what? are you buying a quest or are you buying a gpu?

sterile ore Jan 13, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

I am thinking about buying a Quest so my big brother (who doesn't have a very powerful PC) can also casually play with it from time to time without having to sit in my room all day

#

He told me about the Oculus Link thing, but I saw that it wasn't officially supported, but he sees this as a middle ground stating that he would buy me a good cable that's currently available so I could use it at my PC aswell

woeful cypress Jan 13, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

If the card you have now isn't on the compatible list i'd not get it without beeing aware that even if it works now, it might be patched dead by moving to more functionallity requiring newer GPU's (which is why they state their list as they do)

sterile ore Jan 13, 2020, 8:48 PM

Yeah I was thinking that aswell

they last me a week on CV1 touch controllers (absolutely terrible for WMR tho because 1.2v)

I found some old ones as well and regret that I bought new ones today but let's see

#

like uhm when I put the batteries in and played like 10 mins or so it showed that they are half dead

#

maybe cuz they aren't pre-charged?

#

could that be? Cuz they are lasting long for some reason

I have no info on that, I'm not affiliated with the develpment of the game at all. Personally I don't think so, given the limitations of quest hand Tracking compared to the touch controllers for games. But that's just my opinion

how would a stream camera on the quest work lol? apart from the performance impact where would the camera mirror the image to?

there is not 2nd output for the camera to go to

they mightve meant photo camera

No i meant stream camera @worthy dune and i don't know why everyone is so against quest users. Like chill why don't ya

azure mantle Jan 17, 2020, 12:58 AM

#

We'll start by seeing if they bring back the photo camera

#

the 2d view for photos videos and casting is actually based off the same viewport and camera as one of your eyes in VR

#

so it's a lot less computationally intensive than running another camera in tandem, that pretty much doubles the rendering work

bronze glade Jan 17, 2020, 7:42 AM

#

@dusk forge how would a stream camera work?

dusk forge Jan 17, 2020, 8:36 AM

#

@bronze glade hmm i mean idk how these things work. I mean how am i able to stream to facebook on my quest? That's the reason i want the streaming camera, because i can use it for facebook live streams. If i'm not able to get it, i can always go to oculus link. It's not that hard @bronze glade

brave steppe Jan 17, 2020, 8:40 AM

#

So there are other applications that have in-game cameras that can stream to Facebook on quest vrcThinking

bronze glade Jan 17, 2020, 10:23 AM

#

You know that the stream camera doesnt actually stream right?

#

Its meant for a custom desktop mirror instead of the first person one. It doesnt do anything else

keen patrol Jan 17, 2020, 11:57 AM

#

pretty much only useful in SLOBS and OBS

woeful cypress Jan 17, 2020, 12:20 PM

#

You mean streaming/external recording in general.

#

cirThink

#

But yeah, you can't use that camera for streaming as is, it's only a replacement of the desktop renderer on the PC Version cirComfy

#

If you want to stream from the quest you need to do a bit of research. You'll likely need to dig into third party software / sideloading for that.

bronze glade Jan 17, 2020, 1:38 PM

#

can the quest even handle streaming without a capture card?

woeful cypress Jan 17, 2020, 1:47 PM

#

what does a capture card have to do with it?

#

A capture card doesn't save you performance. (At least these days)

#

Unless you use it to get the video to a different PC and encode there, or it has a hardware encoder which you use (but wont really be a great result at low framerate usually)

dusk forge Jan 17, 2020, 2:25 PM

#

Ok so i just want my viewers to get a different view of me while I'm playing vrchat. Now by what i have been told is that the stream camera is supposed to make it so the viewers on your live stream can see in a different perspective than you, correct? Like i can make it so they can see behind me or to the side of me or in a 3rd person view of me. I know what the streaming camera does. Why wouldn't you be able to add something so simple to this game? All you really would need to do is stay away from mirrors because that would of course cause lag.

#

But other than that it would just act as a mirror that you can basically carry around

cloud shard Jan 17, 2020, 2:42 PM

According to someone else (idk how true this is) you can pay for a streaming account or something

I played osu on virtual desktop... what an experience

bronze glade Jan 17, 2020, 7:06 PM

#

@dusk forge so the way the stream camera works is that it shows its perspective on your monitor (the vr mirror) and than streamers add this to their scene. The quest doesnt have this mirror as everything is run internally. You have nothing to stream the camera to so its not doable

#

@keen patrol I am not familiar with how this works but if you can run steam trough vrdesktop than try playing MC.Osu as it has a VR mode and its pretty cool

keen patrol Jan 17, 2020, 7:07 PM

#

oh I'll look that up then

dusk forge Jan 17, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

@bronze glade thank you for explaining that. I didn't know that the stream camera got mirrored to the pc.

bronze glade Jan 17, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

yeah it replaces the normal pc mirror which is just your first person view

#

also the vrc camera is pretty performance heavy so it might not be doable on the quest

#

than again I wasnt even away that you can stream with a quest standalone

woeful cypress Jan 18, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Just a warning... make sure people you get a opinion from are actually using the quest/have had propper impressions and aren't just quest hating cus there's a few of them here.

#

While im not owning a quest my self, i know a few people on quest that enjoy it, ofc it limits you to quest compatible content and if you come from a PC based friendlist allready, it might be a bit meh to find out that not that many care about quest content usually.

#

If you start out fresh on a quest and build your friendlist and standarts from the ground up on it, then while ofc visually less appealing, the gameplay and fun wise still really nice experience from the quest regulars that i know.

ancient thistle Jan 18, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

Ok thanks, I was just wondering how well it works in terms of graphics and possible lag in VRChat?

woeful cypress Jan 18, 2020, 6:16 PM

graphics is a complicated topic and highly dependant on the people making the content.

@blissful quail the percentage of all worlds vs the percentage of worlds based on a threshold of how often they're visited would be wildly different, also, I don't think even the VRChat devs themselves have that kind of info.

@haughty coyote and also yea, I'm experiencing that as well but lately not that much than usually

jagged trench Jan 19, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

I don't have an exact number but probably much lower than PC as the quest you can't afford to not optimized so that's going to cut off a lot of people from making stuff and the constraints on it would cut off a decent chunk of maps from even being attempted

fickle hill Jan 21, 2020, 3:56 AM

#

I’ve been wondering if you get the oculus link and the quest will you be able to see pc avatars?

haughty coyote Jan 21, 2020, 6:20 AM

#

Yes, since it would be running the desktop version of the game. This requires a VR capable PC the same as running a rift

north ore Jan 21, 2020, 6:34 AM

#

would the quest need to be plugged in all the time for that? @haughty coyote

haughty coyote Jan 21, 2020, 6:37 AM

#

Yes. The link cable is basically just letting the quest run the desktop client and act as a Rift. It turns the quest into a tethered desktop VR headset

north ore Jan 21, 2020, 6:37 AM

#

ok

bronze glade Jan 21, 2020, 11:48 AM

Random chat allows for picture links and this isnt at all related to vrc or quest so that was the channel to go to. I personally use an empty discord group to host my images

where can i find vrc performance settings

plain flower Jan 21, 2020, 6:10 PM

in the game, under "safety"

ok thx

plain flower Jan 21, 2020, 6:10 PM

also you can cut renderr time to a quarter by holding shift after hitting play to open the game and setting the quality to desktoplow

Also yes, non ti

woeful cypress Jan 21, 2020, 6:36 PM

the 1050 is not on the link compatibility list at least

#

i also dont think that the laptop would perform well with link

mint steeple Jan 21, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

I saw that, but I also saw that someone was able to use it with the link

woeful cypress Jan 21, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

third party apps might work if link doesnt on it's own

#

the thing is, while it might work now, it's possible future versions wont support it anymore as they use features not available on these cards.

mint steeple Jan 21, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

Alright, that should be good enough for me then. I'm planning on adding a 16 GB stick of RAM to increase the performance in the near future

woeful cypress Jan 21, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

IN general tho, i heard link does require a kinda beefy system, if not a bit more then a native PC VR headset so i dont think it will run well.

#

if it will run at all.

mint steeple Jan 21, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

I already got a desktop with the GTX 1060 that runs VRChat with the link, so I just need to beef this up.

woeful cypress Jan 21, 2020, 6:39 PM

you can't really beef up a laptop tho, not in terms of processor / gpu at least.

Oh yeah, I just mean adding another stick of RAM and all that

I only have like 8 GB

woeful cypress Jan 21, 2020, 6:40 PM

that doesn't really make any of the other thing's better tho

allthough 16gb's definitely gonna be better then the 8 that are in there now

civic lagoon Jan 21, 2020, 6:41 PM

my advice would be to sell it and build a microATX build

you're trying to go for portablility right?

but that has very specific requirement's and also isn't ideal

not to mention

not portable

unless you again carry a big 12v lead battery and power inverter to run power to the GPU enclosure and such

@civic lagoon apart from the laptop needing thunderbolt you also have to think about heat

even if it can run vrc with an external gpu the cpu will still produce a lot of heat and eventually thermal throttle because its a lap top

Depends. It's a very good headset and a great experience for games optimized for it, but VRChat is lacking a bit. Still some love it, and some don't really want to deal with the limitations

plain flower Jan 23, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

words as someone who uses a cv1 and has only ever used a cv1 long term, i tried a quest last Saturday

#

comfiest headset i have used, i feel like i can wear it for hours and lay down with it
the screen is really fucking bright
didnt notice artifacts
distant objects are overall clearer
screendoor is only apparent when holding completely still and closely focusing. it has been diminished much

#

i cant comment more on screen sharpness since AA was not enabled in one of the games i played (i could make out individual pixels) and i couldnt tell if AA was on in quest beatsaber. But id say judging from how well i could see distant objects, the sharpness is at least 50% better than the rift cv1.

99% of quest games dont have AA

Hey. My friend who owns a quest can’t get into their account in VRC, they would log in but it wouldn’t load. The only account that would work is an account that they barely use and barely has any friends on the list. Is this happening to anyone else?

Hey. Now that Unity finally added Vulkan support for Oculus standalone headsets, including Go andd Quest. Do you think VRChat will make the switch to Vulkan for their Quest version in the future?

Hello! I just got my Oculus Quest last night and was trying to use my anker cable to make it work as a link but as a result, it keeps telling me I have to update my headset after I updated the PC ver. but when I checked the headset it showed no signs of being able to update any further. I tried googling around to look for a solution but nothing has worked.

I still haven't gotten my question answered. Do you guys think VRChat will make the jump to Vulkan for their Quest version in the future now that Unity added support for Vulkan on Quest?

haughty coyote Feb 2, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

Can't really answer that... We just don't know what the dev team has planned shrug

undone lake Feb 2, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

I really hope they do. Vulkan is really useful for mobile VR developers because it can help reduce CPU & GPU overhead and allows developers to build more detailed scenes, use larger draw distances, use leftover CPU power for physics, or just increase battery life for existing fidelity content. It will also allow for significantly faster load times thanks to pre-compiled shaders.

haughty coyote Feb 2, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

Oh, nice ^^
I really don't know much about game develpment, so I didn't know what difference it makes shrug

woeful cypress Feb 2, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

That's all nice but that would mean to actualy make use of it, and have it bee compatible with the current things.

#

and im unsure how compatible current made content would be with a vulkan build.
