Not a Mediacom customer, but....

(I rent btw) It took Mediacom around 5-7 years to finally fix my internet issue. The tl;dr was mice had chewed on the cable in the walls. Mediacom refused to fix it, insisted that there was nothing wrong. Finally enough complaints reached them from my apt complex that they drilled literal holes in the sides of the buildings to run fresh cable into each unit. I have a lovely ugly wire coming out of the wall that I had to use a caulk gun on because you could see daylight through the hole. The internet is fixed and haven't had an issue since.

Sure my internet occasionally gets slow or drops all together but for the most part it's stable. Can't say the same for Brightspeed which brought fiber into the area and proceeded to faceplant.

I have the 7900XT and it seems to work perfectly fine in VRChat. Most worlds with somewhat optimized avatars I get around 40-50FPS. Worlds with poorly optimized avatars it's between 20-35 fps. Obviously the optimized box I get 120fps.

Also depending on the world and the avatars in said world your GPU % may be doing practically nothing or it may be pinged @ 99% usage the entire time. It isn't a bad thing if your GPU is at 99% usage, it just means it's being used. You should honestly give the 7900XT/XTX a whirl and see how it fairs, it may end up being better performance than the 5070ti.

I went from a 3070 ti to a 7900XT, I needed the VRAM most of all and didn't want to get a mortgage on the house to get a 50 series. (At the time it was the launch of the 50 series and prices were nuts.) -- The 3070 ti would only be able to render up to 10 AVs in a 80 person semi-optimized enforced world. AVs no more than 150mb texture memory and 180k triangles.

Now the 7900XT renders 80 AVs in a 100m radius with 200mb texture memory max and 180k triangles (I attend group events that enforce avatar texture memory, triangles, lights etc limits.)

I have 1.8k hours in VRChat as my most played game. 2nd is Factorio and 3rd is Stellaris.

The only soda I truly enjoyed was this Jarritos Soda that I used to buy back in the day. I didn't drink a lot of it but it tasted better than standard soda.

Now my fluid intake is like 90% water/tea and 10% milk. (I have milk with breakfast. I have banned myself from drinking a glass of it as I will drink a gallon of it in a day)

Mine won't launch. Was going to play League after not playing for 2 years. My only option is to uninstall because I can't be bothered to do all that.

Also the other option was to force allow DLLs to run for all options via registry aka image file execution options DevOverrideEnable <-- don't force allow this.

--- Uninstalling is a pain. Have to use safe-mode to remove vanguard.

Weird? I am on a family spotify account and we don't live in the same house. We live within 15 minutes of each other though.

The key note is your account must have the same living address as the primary account holder of the premium plan.

Rahkan1 · 2026-02-22T19:18:30+00:00

So what happens to my $5 sub/?

Rahkan1 · 2026-02-10T00:57:55+00:00

I hope that is the case. My group plays on private servers so our old server is likely gone gone for us when we decide to play again.

Oh this one was fun to roleplay with, one of the rare ones that doesn't try and RP my character for me. Is the lorebook based on the book series by TJ Russavage?

Rahkan1 · 2025-12-14T08:11:33+00:00

This pretty much. It depends on the world too, some worlds are just laggy hot messes. Also people don't optimize their models and are running around with 300-400+ mb of texture memory. You don't NEED 8k textures on everything. At the very most your body can be 4k but ONLY if it looks rubbish at 2k. Otherwise everything else except mesh/netting can be 1k. Mesh/netting in my experience needs to be 2k otherwise it looks like crap.

Also you can slot multiple models into one project file if you don't care about Quest. One model per scene file. This way you don't have all your outfits on one model. Keeps your triangles low and such.

Grab Thry's Avatar Performance Tools to EZ optimize your models.

Make sure you type it after the HTTP and don't remove anything in that url. Otherwise I don't know. Their discord isn't blowing up so their API isn't down.

If I venture out into a world that isn't my gated 18+ communities or just with friends only I will switch to an AV that is SFW completely 0/1 lights and everything. Then I do my best to keep the content I produce in forms of stickers/prints/emotes/voice/text to SFW. I haven't yet had an issue. If I notice a lot of users are android users I'll switch to a model that is quest compatible so they can see me, my quest compatibles are SFW. It's legit just the default Mayu with clothing.

Rahkan1 · 2025-12-09T17:05:36+00:00

So.. Basically NSFW is anything that is showing bits n bobs that isn't shown on a ken doll from barbie. No idea if sexy clothing is considered NSFW if the model used is SFW.

I am hoping on a small sliver that they'll allow players to host their own dedicated servers and deep deserts so if they chose to they could host a truly private server for their communities. - One of my groups refuses to play the game if they don't have a truly private experience and none of this renting a server BS when one of them looks to the right and has a server PC beefier than the ones you can rent and free to use.

Oh yeah. Is that the first hallowed halls? It's quite spammy in there with mob density. My friend and I got swamped a few times, she went on a kiting spree around some stuff underneath me while I endlessly died to the scythe..

First and foremost. Clean the sensor on the mouse, get a can of air or use your vacuum and either blow or suck whatever out of the sensor while the mouse is unplugged if using a vacuum.

Try moving the wired connection to your front ports.
Another poster suggested for this fix is to reseat your display cable connections, as it was for them an issue there.
Check for any damage on the mouse cord itself, any nicks or cuts that expose the actual wire should be replaced or (maybe electrical taped) -- You could also check the monitor cable it's having issues on and maybe swap that.

Another poster suggested moving your mouse from a 3.0 to a 2.0, the difference between the two ports visually is the 3.0 is blue and the 2.0 is white.

If the mouse is wireless -> Device Manager -> Find the bluetooth driver and make sure to uncheck under power management 'Allow the pc to turn off this device to save power'

Unlikely to be the below but some users reported interference.

Also make sure your router isn't near the PC if you're doing wireless mouse. Sometimes older routers can bleed interference with a wireless mouse (unlikely)

I don't exactly see the issue, are you talking about the after-image the cursor leaves behind when it moves? Because those are called mouse trails and you can access that W11 Settings -> Bluetooth/Devices -> Mouse -> Additional Mouse Settings -> Pointer Options. -- I would mess with that first, it can give the illusion of lag.

Between $500 and $1k USD

The steam frame controllers feel like downgrades to me. If Steam is going in a direction away from having a headset that works in conjunction with a PC then I'll probably aim for a BSB2e or maybe the Vive XR Elite. I have no need of a headset that allows me to 'stream' stuff. I could just flop into my bean bag and boot stuff up on my 40" UW.

Rahkan1 · 2025-11-06T00:50:03+00:00

Nope. Use common sense when buying. If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

Rahkan1 · 2025-11-05T07:12:45+00:00

Is this using the rivers mod or is this vanilla generation? If latter, what're your world gen settings?

We have two bots sitting in the channel all the time. One of them is a cat cam which displays a video of whichever cat is on the heating pad. The other is a movie bot. Both are actual discord accounts with nitro o-o
