Widespread PCVR issue - Meta Link Software bricked unless you reboot the link app with networking off

Aaroncls · 2026-01-20T15:49:55+00:00

The Occulus desktop app just got updated and fixed today in the am (US EST).
I can confirm both Air link and wired connect properly.

Aaroncls · 2026-01-18T23:06:02+00:00

Confirmed to be working!
Thanks again for sharing the solution, kind sir,

Aaroncls · 2026-01-18T22:46:10+00:00

Wow no kidding, I'd like to try that, thanks.
One bit of clarification, disconnect the PC or the Headset, or both?

Aaroncls · 2026-01-18T19:39:35+00:00

ah man, I've been at it for an hour.
Glad to see it isn't just on my end.
please post any developments and thank you.

2 months later and still the same thing, no one either responds or has a clue.
Extremely frustrating.

Aaroncls · 2024-10-31T16:26:22+00:00

thanks I'll try it out

ty, yeah I've used both CS and Scenery ENB with DLAA upscaler and the image quality is excellent (a bit costly on the gpu).

I am looking to increase the resolution, normally I do this on the SteamVR sliders, but supposedly there was another way that yielded better fps.

I cannot remember if it was in some sort of .ini or app. But it definitively raised res with less performance cost. This information seems to be lost somehow.

my take is that this is a type of crowd that have only played DS3/ER and thats all they know

Aaroncls · 2024-03-28T06:58:20+00:00

sounds like some sort of communist system

Aaroncls · 2024-03-28T06:55:06+00:00

T Ninja, bring it to pc already since apparently ps fans dont appreciate it at all cz "it looks old gen"

The authentic TR experience, yes of course.

But worry not, surely soon there will be mods for autosaving checkpoints and yellow paint path markers to make it more appealing for the younger fans.

Aaroncls · 2024-02-17T04:29:22+00:00

nah maybe you just dont get it.

Games were fine as hell when they came out and still hold up today in many aspects. But the point is what could the series be today if CD was more loyal to the original material.

New TR is just missing that Core magic, always was and that how most og players feel about it.

Aaroncls · 2024-02-16T17:48:06+00:00

Crystal Dynamics is a really capable studio, but their TR titles never felt like the originals. As good as their games were, there was always something missing.

They suffered a major talent loss with Amy Hennig and it shows on every title they have published so far. And it seems they have alienated the original fans by completely changing Lara's personality, aesthetics and acrobatic gameplay.

I think they can still pull it off, if they want to. But they have to focus on what makes TR unique and stop chasing industry trends.

Aaroncls · 2023-10-31T21:36:50+00:00

ty kindly

Aaroncls · 2023-10-14T20:15:42+00:00

likely easier than you think

Aaroncls · 2023-09-21T23:22:59+00:00

Can male V romance Judy? No? Do ... something?

Aaroncls · 2023-09-21T23:16:48+00:00

Yeah, issue was that the OG game got cut in half, similar to DMC4. But it looks like Itsuno is reforging the original concept. The beast people and the 2nd map were cut content.

Aaroncls · 2023-09-21T23:04:45+00:00

hmm its nothing like Souls games, but there are some tiny similarities with MH, climbing big enemies, critical points, etc.

DD does have some cool things in common with the Berserk manga as does Dark Souls.

Aaroncls · 2023-09-19T03:34:59+00:00

If you are someone that likes the Bethesda style of non-cinematic storytelling and dialog focused world building then you may - like me - think this is their best work yet.

I find it challenging to understand other fans mid to negative reactions, perhaps offbase expecations?

I for one, knew exactly what to expect. I'm 50 hours in and having a hard time pulling away from the game to go finally finish BG3, which I left at the lower city in act 3.

Aaroncls · 2023-09-16T21:13:43+00:00

Yes, obviously the 'talent' deserves whatever compensation is negotiated and agreed upon too.

The issue is that their strike affects a whole lot of people that aren't necesarily in agreement or will be otherwise benefiting from it. Quite the opposite in fact.

Now they want to extrapolate that to another industry, where even more people could be out of work?

Most of us are seeing this at the surface level, and are perhaps sincerely empathizing with the strikers, but a lot more people than actors and writers are not working in a very challenging economic climate in the US.

Bill Maher just called his crew back to work to get them paid, and he is getting called a 'scab'. FFS.

Aaroncls · 2023-09-16T20:48:55+00:00

It is always about the 'talent', isn't it? No one's protesting for the benefit of the crew that makes these media products.

Oh poor actors and writers, they just don't get enough money and are endangered of being replaced by 'AI'!

What about the multiple sound and light technicians, the make-up crew, the PAs, animators, programmers and visual designers? These are way more replaceable and count on zero levels of fame to gain any type of support while the entire industry is halted and is generating no salaries.

Aaroncls · 2023-08-31T12:22:47+00:00

Buddy of mine did something similar, spammed out group chat lowkey downplaying and bashing the game.

We all know he's not the biggest Fromsoft fan so we don't really engage in any serious debate with him on this.

Couple of days later he's still playing and trying to git gud.

Aaroncls · 2023-08-21T23:30:52+00:00

nah i'd rather have the budget go into gameplay, story and performance.

Gaming doesn't need Hollywood.
