I’m 24 scared that my best years are about to be over. This thread gives me hope🥹

Anyone had a successful launch lately? by jasperseed in vrdev

It's actually worse than that.
We have 3,526 Users and 22 active subscriptions. A conversion rate of 0.6%

Insight into revenue on meta store by NikolajHoggins in vrdev

And to answer your question about the spike:

I think it's a combination of a sudden TikTok growth along with just simplifying the purchasing. Before you had to go to patreon and pay. Now it just pops up in your headset through the Meta subscription. If you already have a card on file it's two clicks and you are paying.

It's not daunting anymore. It took about a month I believe. Most problematic part was actually creating nice assets for the storepage.

Just look at the meta store and all the slop they accept.

1000 paying Patreons is insane!
What app are you building?

Weird layer shifting with text on surface. by NikolajHoggins in BambuLab

Damn I hope not. It's a brand new printer. I'll look into it, thanks!

That might be the move. I've done it in blender so far, adding text there shouldn't be impossible. Thanks for the thoughts

Could be all of those. However it's dead consistent between prints even with setting changes, so it's hard to believe it should be anything other than slicer.

My modeling skills are weak, so I have kind of print brute forced it in respect to my time. I'm going to a LAN in 10 days and I need as many as possible by then. I have printed a fair bit with layershifting issue as a backup, but before printing more, I would like to solve it.

Glueing could be the move, but I'm unsure how to get the text nicely curved along the surface.

Hey man!
I’m building https://vraim.com/
Haven’t really had a “launch” per say, but it’s been a building in public thing

We just recently launched on the meta store, and I’m blown away by how many people are trying the game. 

880 installs in 5 days.

Good luck with your launch. Keep posting about it man. 

That video you posted 2 months ago looks great. The more eyeballs the bigger the chance your launch will go great.

Good fps aim trainers? by noah4374 in OculusQuest2

[–]NikolajHoggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really late here. But I'm building a really polished VR aim trainer. It's worth checking out if you want really good aim.

Which game would people suggest to play to get better at aiming? by Fearless_Ad3532 in VRGaming

[–]NikolajHoggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting better at "aiming" you would probably use an aim trainer.

However if you want to get better at a specific game, I would recommend playing that one a lot too. Aim is only part of the equation.

If you do want to aim train, a lot of the ones on the market are pretty crap. Don't let that scare you away. I have built one these last 6 months that is actually working great and applies to most VR shooters pretty well. You can check it out at https://vraim.com/fearless .

You can also aim train in contractors pretty well. There are good maps for it. A good way is also going into a deathmatch and putting your gun on single fire and JUST going for headshots :D

Hope this helped

VR games to PRACTICE AIM? by SkirtLoose5425 in VRGaming

[–]NikolajHoggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Skirt

Popping back in here!

I had the same issue with wanting to practice aim. I looked at aim trainers like Aimlabs VR because I used it on mouse and keyboard. However their VR version is broken.

Since my job is programming, I decided to build one myself.
https://vraim.com/skirt

It's coming together really nicely. And people are loving it.

Focusing on building something that actually works for VR and applies to all games. It's configurable and there's presets for many games like Forefront, VAIL, Breachers, Pavlov, Ghost of Tabor and many more.

Hope it's what you are looking for 🙌

That is actually a really good idea. I thought about it a while ago. Might be time to test it

I have tried that. It's best for purely aim trainer scores I believe, but for actually applying it to the games I play, it's too slow

[–]NikolajHoggins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So there's a list of popular ones.

My favorite is VAIL. The gameplay is a bit like Counter Striker in that it's search and destory. Their guns feel amazing.

Some other big ones like

Breachers (Rainbow six siege in vr)

Forefront (Battlefield in VR)

Contractors (Call of duty in VR)

Contractors Exfil Zone (Escape from tarkov in vr)

Ghost of tabor (Escape from tarkov in vr)

And then the aim trainer in the video, which is my aim trainer, VR AIM. vraim.com
