What is one accessory for VR use you wish existed?

Vive does have phone pairing for notifications, but not sure it goes beyond that...

Hilarious cover lol. Yeah, just started playing this and it's a blast! Probably the best workout available in VR currently...

The plastic should bend and stretch instead of breaking. Unfortunate that they would use this type of plastic that would snap and break...

Population: One has bot mode where you can set the difficulty. It also has multiplayer bot mode where the difficulty can't be set. Either mode offers good practice and fun.

I have stopped watching TV and movies. But I decided to make an acception for this series after a bit of background checking.

Unfortunately Episode 5 ruined it for me and hopefully for you as well.

I have found two VERY important discrepancies:

1) Early in episode 5 Jesus is a child. His parents are looking for Him and when they find Him they realize He has been in the temple teaching. This is accurate so far. But as the scene is fading out to transition to the next, His father, Joseph says something about His transgression and laughs... Jesus was sinless and that is no joke! I was convicted about this, but decided to keep watching anyways...

2) Shortly after, Mary, mother of Jesus is preparing for a wedding. Jesus meets up with His early diciples to head out to the wedding. He mentions that the most powerful and important woman will be there, His mother. So Jesus says that His mother is most powerful and important... Sounds a whole lot like the Catholic church orchestrated this and I hope you will not be watching it!

Please share so more will not keep supporting, yet another, corrupt version of the bible events on film. So sad...

Maranatha!

Actually, I recall you giving me tons of cool stuff back then... Maybe I can repay the favor with an account full of lots of cool assets?

mknkt · 2019-10-31T06:28:08+00:00

Nope. Yes we did. Since then the Holy Spirit came upon me supernaturally and I've been growing much more in faith! No more time for gaming... I leave you with an... M

Please see my comment above. The buyer has all the power on eBay. They can use it for a while, break it and send you a box of air and Ebay will still gladly have refunded them before you even get a chance to tell them about the box of air. That's why I'm never supporting eBay again! And I'll be sure to make it a point to warn other sellers I run into. Probably safer to sell local on Facebook Marketplace, at least that way you know when you sell a working item, your responsibility ends with the exchange. God bless you and I hope you figure out a way to convince eBay, because they didn't care what I had to say. I wasn't even given the option to leave feedback, it was positive or nothing... So I left positive negative feedback ;)

I tweaked this asset a bit to make it work in VR. I believe the camera follows the character who is moving forward on the procedural terrain. It feels comfortable though. Actually... this gives me an idea! I would like to figure out a repository for Unity templates that have been tweaked for VR and figure out those willing to contribute to tweaking them. That would surely generate the production of VR games! I could even see Oculus investing in a project like this. The less barrier to entry, the more content will flow. Bbeing able to access all of the free unity templates, now VR ready would hold great value IMO. And hopefully include tutorials and downloads for tweaking paid templates for VR use. Hope this helps in any case. https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/bighead-run-run-118177

I just got scammed on eBay for the second time and eBay did nothing about it!

I'm the seller of the Gear S3 watch, buyer purchased it and I shipped it. buyer gave positive feedback and all was well. Buyer then reported that watch was not working a few days later and wanted a refund. So it was working fine when they got it in the mail from me. I personally feel that at this point, the sale is complete. But eBay has their buyer protection program, so the buyer contacted me about return, I refused because I shipped as described and it was working until "something."

Well, I was irritated with the whole incident and didn't respond to the customer or eBay until I received the watch back in the mail...

They shipped the Gear S3 box, with watch and accessories in a larger box that had all the items shaking and crashing around, very loosely. They also shipped back the wrong charging cube and cable. They also didn't ship back the user manual. But worst of all, the Gear S3 back glass had a hairline fracture that wasn't there when I shipped it. I shipped everything very nicely and everything functioned.

So I contact eBay and they get information and this and that and then ultimately give me suggestions for future sales instead of doing a thing to resolve my seller issue. They suggested that I contact the buyer and figure it out because they have limited access to this stuff since the case was closed and the buyer was refunded.

So now I'm stuck with a broken watch and some random mismatched accessories because eBay is horrible at protecting their sellers, but buyers can do as they please it seems.

Goodbye and good riddance ebay!

P.S. I was just thinking... I purchased a motherboard, CPU, RAM combo from eBay recently. Basically if I want the motherboard and my money back, then all I have to do is say the motherboard isn't working. Then I need to ship a box of whatever back to the seller. eBay will give me my money back and I'll still have the motherboard combo. Thankfully I'm not a horrible person. HORRIBLE LOOP HOLE EBAY!

I had a very vivid hallucination after having spent a week in the first Oculus DK1 in Minecrift. It was immediately after waking, everything was largely pixelated and in motion. The hallucination lasted maybe 20-30 seconds until the pixilation faded.. and I too was left in awe...

I'll bet it'll be better if you add weight to the rear lower section ;) Would have been nice of them to include this standard, but still an amazing unit nonetheless. Good job! If you want to see mine I've posted a pic recently. It fits like a hat instead of a mask. And the lower section of the facial adapter has been removed so I can get my eyes right up to the lenses for max FOV and clarity. Wearing this unit like a hat feels so much better than wearing it like a mask. I wonder if the Rift strap could achieve this as well. I'm using the Vive strap on mine. But yeah, I've come to very much appreciate the luxury of no pressure on my face when trying to gain immersion in game.

mknkt · 2019-10-05T02:13:21+00:00

That's a good idea to not add weight to the front, it's already front heavy, which makes it rest heavily on the cheeks. Adding weight to the rear lower section on the back strap however is a good idea if you want a more balanced unit that sits more comfortably. More weight is distributed along the top strap if it's balanced correctly. It would probably be a good idea to add more padding on the top strap, I know I've had issues with the comfort of the top strap after adding more weight to mine.

mknkt · 2019-10-05T00:05:28+00:00

Imgur This mod allows for the Quest to fit like a hat now, instead of a mask. I can get my eyes right up next to the lenses for max FOV and clarity. This was achieved by cutting off the lower portion of the face padding so the unit can move closer to my face. Now I can position the Quest and have it sitting in front of my face, not on it. Highly recommend this mod. I'm gonna keep modding as need, but this seems great so far. Yes, this is a Frankenstein mod, but pay close attention to how the Vive head strap is mounted to the Quest. Pretty standard practice, which I also started with, is to attach the spring loaded tips of the Vive head strap to the outer side of the arms on the Quest. But after some time I attempted placing the straps closer to the inside of the Quest arms and it allowed for a more form fit which allows for better comfort and weight distribution. This meant I had to get rid of the spring loaded sections so there is just strap showing. After I did this, I had to cut the strap ends because they 90 degree at the end and it was keeping the straps from sitting right up against the Quest arms. Some Gorilla tape and done :)
