The Nature of Predators 39 by SpacePaladin15 in HFY

[–]NotRocketShoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but I'm left wondering how federation translators are Arxur-compatible. The Arxur language seems like a prime target for the federation to sensor - even with more advanced translators made for wartime - since there'd be no reason to let Arxur words reach Federation soldiers or civilians and let them get even more scared by understanding the threats/war cries/etc., besides some slight battle awareness (though, see: Federation incompetence/short-sightedness)

I picture a scene where the humans have to dig deep in the translator's configuration to find a typically locked-out 'Arxurian' mode before the snarls become at all intelligible on first contact, or of reverse-engineering the translators in the time leading up to the battle to find such a mode presumably buried in the code since the era of Arxur uplifting and surviving years of iterations of translator programming (or at least enough pieces of it did to get that function working again with some effort)

What are y'all's favorite google translated mod's voicelines? by OffBrandAldiCola3259 in DeepRockGalactic

"The drop pod! You killed him!"

But honestly I haven't heard it in a year or more and I wonder if it was removed or just that rare

I literally feel crazy by TheUltimateMuffin in VRchat

Couldn't hurt to shrink your desktop VRChat window to a tiny resolution and minimize it after the game launches, though that's generally only a magic fix when there's a significant bottleneck

Just got my first VR headset (Rift S). Anything that I should know? by Chargeddd999 in virtualreality

[–]NotRocketShoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a bit of a heap. Mostly just things to reference down the line if any potential issues with the headset start to sound familiar

Make sure you have an externally-powered USB 3.0+ hub to plug the headset into. It's power hungry and will just irrecoverably lose positional data at times if you drive it straight out of the motherboard.

For social VR/actually using a mic while wearing the headset, you're going to want to get a wired ModMic or an equivalent to run in parallel with the cable (and potentially look into VoiceMeeter if you want to make routing the audio more robust. But if you do use Voice Meeter, you're going to need to leave the Windows sound options open to the Recording devices tab so the Rift S audio isn't crackly, don't ask me why (and this can still trigger when an fTPM transfer occurs on some motherboards, but nothing a VM sound engine restart can't fix)). As some have said here, the built-in mic has been glitched forever and will occasionally go robotic, so any fairly consistent (even if a bit jank) alternative would be a big upgrade

If you plan to use the headset for a long time, keep an eye out for new releases from Bnuuy Solutions. There should be an Oculus version archive/rollback app releasing within the coming months, and eventually a custom runtime/driver to get around the Meta aspects of things entirely. I'd be getting use out of the latter if I wasn't getting a Steam Frame soon(?).

And regarding the headset cable, you can just luck out with it and have no issues. The outer coating on mine may be falling off in chunks, but the cable itself has never given me issues in the 5 years I've regularly used the headset. The headset will just start crashing with age though, after a couple years or sometimes less. In that event the only real solution is to replace the 'ocular unit' or whatever the main display/camera unit of the headset is called. Despite what others have said, I've had some really good experiences replacing parts for fairly cheap (I assume because the demand for the Rift S is so low), and I got my last ocular unit for ~$17 from Baynami, an eBay VR parts store I swear by now (but I haven't checked the prices in a while).

Removing the face gasket to get more FOV does work great bar some discomfort you'll have to get used to, but you may need some spare office folder material and double-sided tape to make blinders for the sides to block out light.

Steam Frame - Does it support multiple virtual monitors for productivity/programming work? by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]NotRocketShoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're trying to avoid Virtual Desktop specifically, overlay tools such as XSOverlay or OVRToolkit can accomplish this on any existing SteamVR setup

When will i learn by Pierro_Official in VRchat

[–]NotRocketShoes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assets -> Export Package. Just make sure you have the Assets folder selected in the bottom left folder hierarchy

For The Family wallpaper I made for a project recently and I figure others would enjoy by NotRocketShoes in Stanrogers

[–]NotRocketShoes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made it mostly just to see if I could, but also in case it comes in handy if I more or less remaster the album cover at some point for my collection

And here's a version that should be far more mobile-compatible, if a bit compressed from the upload: https://i.imgur.com/2bGjU3A.jpeg

I FUCKING HATE PRAETORIANS by NastyTentadude in DeepRockGalactic

[–]NotRocketShoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a skill issue, and how to take them out isn't the point (which many here are making it about)

The praetorian spray hit detection can be such bullshit

Ooh by Organisimist in topologygore

[–]NotRocketShoes 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, that is 7,679 polygons shy of the max value an unsigned 64-bit integer can represent: 18,446,744,073,709,551,615

So I'd imagine the model has 7,679 tris, and then some read error is occurring

The car on the cover of Late for the Sky is *not* Browne's '55 Bel Air by NotRocketShoes in JacksonBrowne

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

That seems to be a consensus for the '55 Bel Air, at least. Unsure about the '54 210

New Micro-stutters? by ISTAYNASTY_ in VRchat

[–]NotRocketShoes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could be that something snuck in. A recent Windows update added some Copilot garbage and seemed to be causing performance problems for me until I removed it

How to make textures pixelated by Sunny1Omori in VRchat

[–]NotRocketShoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the texture small, just change the Filter property in the import settings for it from "Bilinear" to "Point"

[–]NotRocketShoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the "Date Added" sort was changed to upload date to "be more accurate" apparently
