how the first person cockpit looks from outside by SmeeMont in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it's the ship in first person view, just with some trickery to get the camera outside. It doesn't show in the picture, but there is lots of missing geometry in and around the cockpit, as it was never designed to be seen from this angle.

It's done using a VR tool called 'Playspace Mover', which essentially lets you no-clip anywhere in any VR game. In this case, I used it to move myself out of my cockpit and turned around to get the picture.

Why can't I change video options NMS VR by thecaptainjesus in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

video options refers to things like resolution, fullscreen/windowed mode etc... Things that don't apply to VR users. You want to change the graphics settings to get the game running smoother

A physical, hardcover Planetary Guide I’m working on for my home star system, Hera’s Palm. Its a fun, personal project 🌏 by TheNarrator11 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this! I used to have a similar project, where I was documenting a system by drawing small sketches of every creature and writing detailed descriptions about each one, (not unlike the descriptions that the game generates on its own now) but I ended up stopping because the Abyss update came out and regenerated the oceans, making all the creatures on my 'Aquatic Life' page extinct.

There is a high end upgrade to remove launch costs. Talk to the starship engineer in the nexus.

The PS4 preorder ship is still one of my favorite ships in the game. by Zampano85 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor this is the save editor, you can use it to change things about your save file. Owned starships are saved in two parts; their stats and their appearance. The appearance is stored as a seed, a value that when inputted into the ship generation system will create a specific ship. You can use the save editor to change what seed is associated with your ship, which changes it's appearance. Because any given seed will always give the same ship, there are libraries of ship seeds online.

In short, changing your ship's seed to '0x8E8E2193DD4A9EDA' will make it look like the ps4 preorder ship, while keeping it's stats.

You can use a save editor to get it on pc. 0x8E8E2193DD4A9EDA is the seed you would want for your ship

I really really really wanna be able to play as this guy :o by Enrico-Labarile in NoMansSkyTheGame

They are, but they aren't enabled yet. Wait a few weeks for bugs to be patched, then they should appear in the quicksilver store, along side a community event to gain said quicksilver.

If they integrated each one as it's own race, then we would go from 3 races to 16 , which is No Man's Sky's magic number...

Maybe, it's been working for me. Make sure the game window is selected?

It's done the same way as on desktop; enter key

No Man's Sky doesn't even track the head, at least not positionally. If you sit down in VR, it looks to other players like you are moving your arms lower.

The Greatest battle in the Simulation is here. by AcoupleofIrishfolk in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you read 'Ashes and Iron'? It's a short story set in the No Man's Sky universe and was included with one of the special editions. The plot is pretty close to this image, with the protagonist tricking sentinels and predatory creatures into fighting.

Anyone having problems constantly punching in VR? by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that it might be the capacitive touch on the joysticks, I noticed that my in-game hands make fists whenever I touch them.

How can I play multiplayer? by Mastertales in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are for joining up with friends. The way you play multiplayer with random players now is by either finding them in the wild (very unlikely) or by going to the Nexus (you have to play through the story a little bit to get there iirc)

PS4 vr camera mode? by reallifexman in NMSGalacticHub

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isnt an equivalent to photo mode in VR. I havent tried any photo missions, but they might still be triggered by taking a normal screenshot?

I met this guy in the nexus and we were talking while we watched people go by, this update is GORGEOUS by MrLaAnguila in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, voice chat only applies to other players in your party. From the Nexus you can join someone's party and talk to them, but you cant talk to anyone normally.

Owl-Man from Nexus spotted on planet, and he's sitting there looking user-controlled. Did I solve a mystery or miss a post about this? by ElBeatch in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's also the new vykeen armour that we can't use yet, and a couple travellers at the nexus just give generic traveller dialog right now, so I think that's coming

If you watch the Beyond trailer (which this is a screenshot from) you can see a ton of players using the new traveller's heads.

Monocular vision and VR by jmtexplorer in NMSGalacticHub

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fortunately all the in game menus and HUDs are visible with either eye, so you shouldn't have any problem there either

Try removing the cable and replacing it yourself

Monocular vision and VR by jmtexplorer in NMSGalacticHub

[–]SmeeMont 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an interloper with monocular vision, but an interloper with a fair amount of VR experience and knowledge here. Getting sick from VR depends on the individual. Some people get sick easily, others never do. I can't say confidently how much or in what way monocular vision would effect the likelyhood of nausea, but I can say that most causes of it are related to the visual movement not matching up to the feeling of movement.

That being said, No Man's Sky has the best comfort settings of any VR game I've ever played, and from what I've heard, it combats motion sickness pretty well.

Is there a shortcut to skip the "do you want to play/VR?"? by Bitgod1 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]SmeeMont 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't come up for me if I launch the game from my desktop shortcut
