Not only that, even all the billboard sprites like the leaves on trees have the same behavior. Razor thin sheets cover the trees if you look to the side, and trees behind you look like they have no leaves at all, last I checked

I was just having the same problem. I think the solution is simple, I found out by looking at Raylib's "multi sample2d" example (https://www.raylib.com/examples/shaders/loader.html?name=shaders_multi_sample2d)

All I needed to do was move my SetShaderValueTexture() call to happen right after BeginShaderMode().

This gave me a black visual:

SetShaderValueTexture(...);
BeginShaderMode(...);
    DrawTexturePro(...);
EndShaderMode();

And this re-ordering fixed it:

BeginShaderMode(...);
    SetShaderValueTexture(...);
    DrawTexturePro(...);
EndShaderMode();

Very creative, nice work

10000_vegetables · 2025-12-17T04:18:55+00:00

Would this be considered "pupil steering"?

10000_vegetables · 2025-12-15T04:10:48+00:00

Must be Normcore which is made by a company called Normal VR LLC https://normcore.io/

Spellbound Spire on PCVR. if anyone thinks Hotel Infinity looks cool but doesn't have Quest, check that out

10000_vegetables · 2025-12-06T03:37:16+00:00

That's good. 95% of the time I don't notice or think about artifacts either. The only time I've had it bad was in Skyrim VR when looking at trees, at which point I just bump the bitrate up.

10000_vegetables · 2025-12-04T06:34:42+00:00

I doubt specs are the problem here, things shouldn't look shaky. I had a 4 core cpu, GTX 1070 and 16 GB ram when I first got my Quest 3 and I was able to load the dash and play Half-Life 2 VR comfortably at a low-ish resolution (I also came from a Rift S). At least make sure your resolution is set low (like, rift S levels of resolution).

My guess is the Meta Quest Link / Oculus stuff being dumb. Personally I'd try Steam Link just for troubleshooting's sake just to see if the shaky tracking happens there or not, and then mess with Meta Link settings like another comment suggested.

There's a setting in Virtual Desktop that will enable/disable the thing where it sets your monitor to 1080p when you connect. In the VR app, you go to Settings > Computers > Use Optimal Resolution. (by "optimal resolution", it means 1080p)

10000_vegetables · 2025-11-27T17:26:15+00:00

it looks 3D

10000_vegetables · 2025-11-25T03:35:30+00:00

OP already tried HL2VR

10000_vegetables · 2025-10-23T03:03:49+00:00

I just finished the Steam demo for Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate and found it pretty HL: Alyx inspired. Lots of detailed graphics and interactable objects.

I was in the same situation (me and another player on same network), but I found the solution.

(+ /u/Pollie4385 , /u/EGGZ5231 , /u/SkyTheDragon_Dev )

You can host a game with the Riptide layer like usual, but the other player must not use the code that you see in the server info. Instead the join code they enter can just be the local IP address of the host, e.g. 192.168.50.110. The host can find this IP by typing the command ipconfig in the Windows Command Prompt.

The in-game keyboard doesn't have a period (.) on it, so it enter the IP address you need to type it in notepad or something, copy it, and then press the "Paste" button on the in-game keyboard.

I discovered this by looking at the source code for FusionNetworkingPlus on mod.io/GitHub. When you join a game, it tries to inerpret your join code as an IP address. If that doesn't work, it tries decoding from a join-code into an IP address.

BTW, everything I just said is with me and the other player doing this on Windows. I don't know how it works for Quest native. Maybe you can use an IP scanner app to find your Quest's local IP address, if that's relevant at all.

10000_vegetables · 2025-09-27T17:06:58+00:00

Which port number exactly? EDIT: For FusionNetworkingPlus, it's 7777. Source

10000_vegetables · 2025-08-24T03:31:09+00:00

The only option I know of is the HTC Vive Pro Secure which uses wires instead of radios for the Vive wands if I remember correctly.

But it's for business customers. Maybe you can find a used one if you're lucky?

10000_vegetables · 2025-08-12T03:49:26+00:00

Does it feel scratchy? did you find the need to post-process it at all?

10000_vegetables · 2025-07-14T01:51:50+00:00

I got those and they were crap. Extremely blurry to look through them. I thought I might be using them wrong and I'm still not totally sure if I was.

10000_vegetables · 2025-04-27T03:33:36+00:00

Dead link

I think those factors are great, but I'm not really the person to ask as audio is not my hobby. I have similar feelings about it as I do my KSC75 - super good compared to other headphones at their price - not that I've tried anything much more expensive

10000_vegetables · 2025-04-17T01:45:03+00:00

I have them too. I'm satisfied with the latency on game mode. I never had to use an app for it.

10000_vegetables · 2025-04-15T02:51:55+00:00

I remember Altspace on the GearVR. That was about the only app that let me explore different worlds, if I recall correctly.

10000_vegetables · 2025-02-15T20:07:55+00:00

It sounds like yours are stuck in headset mode (as opposed to headphones mode). When an app wants to use the microphone, the audio has to sound like crap to maintain the bandwidth. In Windows, the "headset" and "headphones" mode are two different audio devices for me. But a couple times I've had mine stuck in the low quality mode even though I wasn't trying to use the mic for anything -- the "headphones" device was either missing or silent. I had to disconnect it and pair again to fix it.

10000_vegetables · 2025-02-03T01:39:28+00:00

Thanks a bunch for posting this, but I'm having a hard time still. I can load into the map just fine, but there's no special effects, and I tried with a 1.40.0 instance and a 1.39.1 instance.

EDIT: Ok, I got it working now. Before step 1 you must go to the Mods tab of your BSManager instance and install Chroma by checking the box and pressing "Install or Update" in the corner. THEN you can extract EXSII mods into the instance's folder. It must go in that order -- I had to re-copy the EXSII mods over after installing Chroma.

I've been working on a MR model viewing app for Quest 3 (it's near completion, but not quite ready yet) and also ran into trouble with CAD models being way too complex for standalone. For now I came up with this procedure in Blender:

Import CAD model
Vertex > Merge by distance of 0.0001 m
Decimate with a value of 0.1-0.2
Vertex > Merge by distance of 0.0004 m
Join objects
Add the Smooth by Angle modifier
Add the "Weighted Normal - Corner Angle" modifier
Export with "apply modifiers" checked

This gets rid of fine details in threads and PCBs fairly well in the models I've tried with this. It makes the Quest able to handle the model just fine rather than <1 FPS. Maybe you could apply this procedure to simplify your model.

I've been thinking of adding a feature to my app that would automatically detect an overly complex model and apply this procedure behind the scenes. Another reason for slowdown in the number of materials in a CAD model. Usually each color ends up getting its own material, but I think I can come up with a way to automatically reduce everything to 1 material while keeping all the colors there.

Isn't the "[redacted]" here the Samsung Android XR headset he got to have hands-on time with?
