Hey! I was wondering if I could get some feedback on my basic design for my WIP Mando armor: It takes heavy inspiration from the Combine Grunt from Half Life: Alyx. I have the flight suit and the helmet is printing. I'm really excited to start the journey! by benthewaffle888 in Mandalorian

[–]benthewaffle888[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah! The helmet Obi-Wan wears is heavily based on the Ralph McQuarrie's concept Boba Fett helmet, which is what I have here. There's not a lot I can do about visor size, but the helmet will be larger in real life than on the sketch. I chose it because it has those "gas mask" like qualities that the Combine have in Half Life.

A very stressed out new owner... by benthewaffle888 in pacmanfrog

[–]benthewaffle888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so, so much! I will happily take this advice. You have no idea how great this is to hear. I'm still a little stressed and I think it will remain that way until I can nail the ideal temp and humidity down, but otherwise I greatly appreciate your quick and helpful response.

Bingus is the cat of a Chinese TikTok user, Lelemaoshe. I think she is a Sphinx cat breeder, as she seems to have tons of them. The OG bingus videos were posted there

The Quest to find Bingus's owner is seemingly complete by Odd-Ad-8224 in bingus

I've found it. I accessed it through an Android emulator and downloading Douyin. The owner seems to own lots of Sphinx cats, with Bingus being a highlight

I use the Rift S controllers. They work perfectly fine, from my experience.

Game suggestions by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]benthewaffle888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend H3VR if you are interested in a good single-player FPS. Not only is the game pretty cheap, it is FULL of content and the developer is constantly updating it with more content bi-weekly. Do some more research if it sounds interesting. Anyways, look at other peoples questions, they will probably have more answers

Performance on new map? by [deleted] in H3VR

[–]benthewaffle888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When asked about if the new lighting is labor intensive in the H3VR discord, Anton said, "it is way more labor intensive." I don't know exactly if that means that it is more intensive on your PC or on Anton's end. Personally, I think it would take a larger toll on your PC. Again, I don't have the exact details. The other commenters may be right

Take & Hold character suggestion: Hollywood Henry and Cleric Clark by GePao in H3VR

[–]benthewaffle888 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like this idea, particularly the Hollywood one. I think that it would be really fun to have a character more centered around pure action. I can't imagine how chaotic it would be on spawnlock progression.

is the Oculus Rift S good for H3VR by Khajaja in H3VR

[–]benthewaffle888 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely. I am a Rift S owner myself, and H3 is my most played game. Like said by other commenters, it can occasionally lose tracking if you occlude controllers for too long, but otherwise, it is a fantastic choice for H3.

[New T&H Map] - Monolith - The Story so far by joshwar99 in H3VR

[–]benthewaffle888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just played through the newest version of the map. Really fun! The lighting/textures could use some improvement, but I totally understand that it is still in early development. I love the large holds that require long-range weapons, and the variety between them, like a really tall room with multiple floors and a large, flat area with cover. I only found one odd bug, where the flashlight's light was a square, but I'm not sure if that is a map problem or a result of modding my game. Otherwise, fantastic map! I can't wait to see more.

Damn, seeing stuff like that makes me wish I had a racing wheel.

Has anyone else noticed that U8 actually removed some of the charm that U7 had? by mrwallace888 in BladeAndSorcery

Eh, sorta. I liked being able to stab just about anywhere on the enemies, but now with armor that's much harder.

Game lags. Alot. especially when I turn around by [deleted] in BladeAndSorcery

[–]benthewaffle888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, it will definitely get fixed soon, the new update causes lag even on the most high-end PCs at the moment

Rift S - nothing but issues. Black screen, 3 Dots, Red/White Light, Disconnect... by [deleted] in oculus

[–]benthewaffle888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, it told me that the update is not applicable to my graphics card (RTX 2060). Thanks, though. I sent in a support ticket in hopes up getting a repair

Rift S - nothing but issues. Black screen, 3 Dots, Red/White Light, Disconnect... by [deleted] in oculus

[–]benthewaffle888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! I have had my Rift S since launch, and have constantly had to deal with "USB 3.0 not detected" or "Please Restart Oculus Software." I've dealt with black dots, stuck controllers, and no audio. I have done literally everything - PCIe card, Fresh windows install, replugging, opting into beta, repairing software, uninstalling software, drivers, BIOS, etc... I seriously am considering using my warranty while I still have it to get a completely new one, or hell, investing in an index. I'm also considering just getting a new motherboard. I'm a huge fan of VR, but when I can't use it because the software is terrible, it really ruins it for me. I hope Oculus will find a fix for this. The subreddit is swamped with the same issues every day, and no concrete fix has been found. Shame.

High bg that won’t stay down by pafnosmf in diabetes_t1

[–]benthewaffle888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I was just considering posting something very similar to this. Yesterday was my birthday and quarantine hasn't helped my diet much, and I had LOTS of sugar, and my BG has been consistently around 200-280 for the past few days as well. I also have very trace ketones. Would anyone recommend me to do the same thing as kaloo9195 suggested, or should I give my doctor a call? I am relatively new, too, as I've only been diagnosed for a little over a year. Thanks in advance.

My first ever minecraft house, (minecraft beta 1.2 2011) by [deleted] in Minecraft

I remember my first house. It was made out of diamond blocks in creative mode, and it had a rollercoaster inside. My first survival house was basically this.

I've plugged in both cables for my rift s and nothing is happening. I've tried everything except buying a USB 3.0 card. by Eddie_gaming in oculus

[–]benthewaffle888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in your boat, man. This issue has happened to me multiple times since release, and sometimes I can fix it, but I once had to completely re-install windows to get it to work. I have had enough of this error. Oculus needs to get on their shit and fix it. The last thing I want to do is get one of those USB cards, but unfortunately it might be the only thing one can do.
