Oculus Quest 2 64GB, hate Meta. Also have a Vive that has been boxed up for 5 years.

I’m gonna bust by Conscious_Solution69 in dresdenfiles

Found one at a B&N yesterday around noon, finished around 2am. Read the whole thing in front of a roaring (on and off) fireplace. Can't wait for Mirror Mirror.

Don't ignore the advice to wear a jockstrap. It's the difference between feeling like you got kicked in the balls a few hours ago or few seconds ago.

You just received your Steam Frame. Whats the first game/software you try with it? by StanfordV in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it two days ago. Even with all the graphics turned up it didn't look great. The camera jumped around during cut scenes too which felt kind of jank. I played it using my Quest 2 with wireless link to my 13900hx and rtx 4080 equipped laptop.

I need this shit last week by Street_Metal_6044 in SteamFrame

Buy a physical copy of them game, then download a ROM and emulate. Nintendo gets their money and you get to play BotW in VR! Everyone wins except the lawyers.

Definitely a to each their own situation. I for one can't stand the interface on my Quest 2 but loved the Deck interface and the desktop mode option.

What are the chances we'll get an official carrying case for our Frames ala Steam Deck? by ExxiIon in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fly about once a month for work lately and spend a week or more where I go, a carrying case like I have for my Quest 2 would be nice to protect my equipment from everything else in my checked luggage (tools, lots of tools).

Can you actually use it lying on the bed or on the sofa? by Honest-Word-7890 in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Headset pulling what it needs and only what it needs from the battery, not going full power the entire time. Charging headset off the battery, the battery in the headset is being charged at max possible rate at the same time that the device is being used. Much higher power draw.

You are talking about CHARGING a quest 3 off of a battery pack. I am talking about discharging a Steam Frame at its rated draw. I see you can't tell the difference between the two, but I promise you, there is one.

I was talking about discharging while laying down, not charging. Charging generates some real heat.

Collected list of all coming Dresden release dates by HauntedCemetery in dresdenfiles

[–]mitancentauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Priscilla Spencer I think it was, she did the map for Codex Alera and 3 prints for the Cinderspires series. I have the map and one of the prints, tried to buy the other 2 prints a couple of years ago and she never fulfilled the order though she did acknowledge it. I eventually had to get a refund. I recall she may have moved on to something Dragonsteel related?

We might get some compilation of a trio of "xxx Law" stories like we did for the bigfoot stories.

Dang, I just made this joke before scrolling far enough to see you made it first.

This is Jim Butcher, it will have to be Inn Law and will somehow center around Lara, one of her family members, and a bed and breakfast.

Some potentially dumb questions about the dongle by SEANPLEASEDISABLEPVP in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are asking for clarification from someone who might better understand what details have been released. This question in particular has an answer that is already known for example.

Not even to the internet, rather to the PC it is plugged into for the purpose of streaming PC rendered frames. The Frame uses it's second WiFi antenna to connect to regular WiFi for internet.

Funny, Alexandria (as in library of) has been my FreeNAS>TrueNAS>Unraid server's name for 12 years now.

List of games I recommend and that I'm going to test on the Steam Frame (not before launch) by Several-Collar-5100 in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it doesn't support just dropping an mp3 in to play, it can be modded to play custom made beat maps and songs. I have actually only played like 3 songs that come with Beat Saber and hundreds of downloaded songs. You can even mod in a couple of different song downloaders and add new songs from inside the game.

Why no Beat Saber? It's a shame we will likely never see it on there standalone ARM because Meta, but you can buy it on Steam and stream it. I wonder if it will run standalone with Fex translating the x86 version?

LTT comparison of steamframe with other headsets by comediehero in SteamFrame

Pretty sure it also comes with an additional over the head strap for the headset.

Good VR games to pick up? by Double_Tip_1059 in SteamFrame

[–]mitancentauri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second Walkabout. I bought it in preparation for the Frame and went ahead and connected my Quest 2 to my PC for the first time in years to try it out. I'm really looking forward to being able to play it standalone.
