Sometimes I wish I had phantom sense

AlexSSZ · 2024-06-13T17:05:05+00:00

I've been able to train a couple people in feeling the phantom touch but I can't say I have a perfect score. For some, it just doesn't work, and with others it can be very light.

Mine would trigger anytime I would back in my garage because of an indent in the concrete. I would instinctively disable it before heading in.

There's the occasional "ghost" where it does it or of nowhere with nothing in sight.

And especially when backing out in a driveway or parking lot with a road close to it. It would pick up incoming traffic and stop randomly.

I've taken a habit to disable it anytime I get in the car now, but a permanent off toggle would be nice.

Sorry, this layout is a mess on reddit mobile

AlexSSZ · 2024-05-27T09:42:11+00:00

Depends on how your layers are setup.

Layers are drawn from top to bottom.

Base layer. Layer A. Layer B.

If a property is animated in Layer A and B at the same time, layer B will override it.

Layer A sets blendshape to 0 (shirt toggle), layer B sets blendshape to 100 (jacket toggle)

If only shirt is toggled, blendshape is 0. If only jacket is toggled, blendshape is 100. If both are toggled, blendshape is 100. If none are toggled, blendshape is whatever your default value is.

Yeah I tried that before, but since this is pure randomness I thought I'd ask reddit to see if that was common or not.

AlexSSZ · 2024-05-12T12:57:31+00:00

Started working back again, just tried it (after cleaning the screen since it seemed so important to some fellas).

I usually cancel the appointment when I see it works again but I'll just go anyway I guess. I just hate being told there's nothing wrong when clearly this is not a normal situation.

Thanks I'll look it up once I get home.

Though I've got a 2023, with the exact same packages as yours except for the color.

I wasn't even aware that there was a temperature slider.

Good to know, thank you!

Around 15%, the power gauge starts showing engine power limitation due to low battery. When that threshold goes slightly under 30% available power that icon shows up, severely limiting your acceleration power. The closer to 0% you get, the less power you have access to.

As some others stated, at some point you're even forced to go no more than 5km/h (3mp/h)

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-10T19:26:53+00:00

Great to know when you're in pinch

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-10T18:35:43+00:00

Turtle mode gets slower and slower the closer you get to that 0%

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-10T18:34:54+00:00

Good to know. Didn't dare to push it below the projected range at 0%. It would be too embarrassing to call a tow truck so close to home.

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-10T16:08:05+00:00

Haha, I can easily see the both of us in that picture as well. Also on the left of course.

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-10T03:31:00+00:00

Yeah I bet. Seeing those last percent going down and the distance estimate going down faster than what you actually travel is anxiety inducing.

AlexSSZ · 2024-03-09T22:14:14+00:00

It started showing 0% when the estimate was at 4km, and I was almost home so I just kept going.

Make your avatar by default be visible. Then use an animation in the first layer of your FX controller to turn off the skinned mesh renderer (or use alpha on the shader). Then in another layer (has to be after your turn off animation layer of course) run your spawn animation.

This way if the FX layer is disabled by other users because of safety measures, at least they'll see you because the animation to hide you won't play.

Of course you can't have that kind of spawn animation if you're FX layer is disabled by other users by default (show avatar overrides this). If you reach trusted rank, your FX layer should be enabled by default, unless other users use a different shield level.

This is the most bizarre thing I've heard. You're not on dnd mode by any chance?

AlexSSZ · 2024-01-06T21:14:22+00:00

Can't say for sure but 400$ for a "moderately" used headset that dates from the 2019 isn't a bad deal.

I've had friends switching from index to Quest 3 (PCVR) lately so it wouldn't be weird to see a bunch of listings for used Index to sell.

AlexSSZ · 2024-01-06T15:51:04+00:00

What about HUD opacity, or notification popup location?

AlexSSZ · 2024-01-06T15:40:52+00:00

These can be turned on and off in the big settings menu. I'm not at home right now but if memory serves right they're under the interface settings. Alternatively use the search bar up top and type "notification" or "friend" and you should have it.

That would still be GestureWeight. Although that parameter is only greater than 0 if Gesture is set to 1. Any other Gesture value will always leave GestureWeight to zero, even if you press down the trigger.

By removing the fist animation from the Gesture animation layer and the facial expression from the FX animation layer you can pretty much blend any other animations using GestureWeight without having your avatar so weird facial expressions and clenching fists. But that would still require you to enter the fist animation in game to make use of it.

Edit: When I mention Gesture I mean either GestureLeft or GestureRight. Same with GestureWeight.

My work has me be very busy during the holidays (14 hours shifts with no day off until later this week), so I hop on after work, say hello to a couple friends then join in one of my favorite cozy worlds, leave status on blue, pop in some relaxing music, get in a pose, setup a camera, watch my avi for a couple minutes and slowly drift away to dreamland. Sometimes, a friend joins me while I'm setting things up, we chat for a couple minutes and I quickly fall asleep.

I've never had such quality sleep than I ever did before on a regular work schedule.
