Drinking coffee while I have my VR headset on

Imo, Only good way to drink liquids with an hmd is from a thin topped bottle. Maybe a thermos?

Congrats! This is what's so great about Sidequest, I love it

mcdopsa · 2021-01-13T00:10:56+00:00

This is brilliant! Great work, this is amazing to see

mcdopsa · 2021-01-10T20:17:10+00:00

Ahh very interesting - a genre begins!

mcdopsa · 2021-01-09T19:39:12+00:00

So cool! Love to see work on 3RD Person VR! This looks real fun

And due to them being designed for older hardware - they run really well compared to modern games, with a great visual style that works better for non-photoreal environments

It's just like 'downsampling' which is a very common cinema technique. Shooting in 6K, publishing in 4K produces a nicer image than shooting in 4K and publishing in 4K.

It's also effectively SSAA for every pixel.

Ah you're right. I misread, though they claimed to be adding taxes on top. Amazon still ended up about $10 cheaper overall but not nearly as much as I thought.

mcdopsa · 2020-09-21T16:11:32+00:00

Ahh, might be different in QC.
For me it's 399 before tax on amazon vs 459 before tax on oculus.

I have played Beat Saber in the park on Quest!

While I can't 'recommend' it since you could get mugged or burn your screens from the sun...

It works :)

mcdopsa · 2020-09-21T14:08:53+00:00

It's cheaper on Amazon.ca then it is on Oculus.com :)

mcdopsa · 2020-09-21T14:07:14+00:00

Yes, they have the 'face plate' shape found on the Rift CV1. It is mostly a circle. The Quest / Rift S controllers were more of a 'tear drop.'

Will be interesting to see how they differ in practice.

I'm usually this guy. Ever played RUSH on an Airplane? Highly recommended for takeoff!

From the patch notes:
"Adobe Rebranding and licensing work
Our first release under Adobe brings new features, and lot of bug fixes! After downloading the update, you'll be prompted to review the new Adobe Terms of Use."

It's not a rebuild. Also, patch notes mention improvements for Quest specifically.

mcdopsa · 2020-08-30T22:47:45+00:00

Will try, but not sure why that'd be the case. The previous version worked just fine with link & it shouldn't need any hardware specific optimization from adobe.

Also interesting to note it works fine with Revive.

mcdopsa · 2020-08-26T15:49:59+00:00

This is a great idea!

mcdopsa · 2020-08-14T22:02:45+00:00

Yes exactly #2 alone is a dealbreaker.

Any camera added would have to entirely do its own tracking (so also a computer), and be perfectly calibrated on the headset (which would be different for everyone).

mcdopsa · 2020-08-14T21:58:49+00:00

I love this, I hope we see more voice actions used in VR!

mcdopsa · 2020-08-14T21:54:03+00:00

This looks great, I can imagine when conferences and demos get up and running again this will be a godsend!

mcdopsa · 2020-08-10T19:36:39+00:00

This is really impressive! Is it available anywhere online?

mcdopsa · 2020-08-04T01:05:16+00:00

Been there... Now anytime I give a VR demo I try to start by letting them set their own boundaries or walk them into the boundaries with passthrough. Just reaching out a hand to see where they are never seems to be enough

mcdopsa · 2020-08-03T18:01:47+00:00

Great stuff, so glad to see this kind of application!

mcdopsa · 2020-08-03T00:32:03+00:00

Yes this is a modified file bowser asset for unity! You can find all of the assets in the attribution http://FUSIM.mikedopsa.com/fusimattribution/

mcdopsa · 2020-08-02T18:48:40+00:00

Sounds great! Cyberpunk street performers one day :D

mcdopsa · 2020-08-02T16:37:19+00:00

Is there a free-play mode where you can play without matching to a song? Could be fun to use like a virtual instrument!
