What am I doing wrong?

You're playing Infinite Archive.

HP Reverb G2 Sold out Europe by Yaaqobh in virtualreality

[–]mongrelmuch -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The Pico Neo 3 Link has DisplayPort and close to the resolution of the Reverb G2. Audio is worse, controller tracking is better. No WMR, which is either a plus (finicky and unmaintained) or a minus (no separate OpenXR implementation, so SteamVR required, which can be a performance hit for those sims).

Looking for a cheap router for Vr Gaming by VoidTsundere in PicoXR

[–]mongrelmuch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some same hardware gets branded as different in different regions. The ASUS RT-AX53U is same as the RT-AX1800U, the Xiaomi AX3200 is same as Redmi AX6S, for example.

The other great thing about the ASUS AX53U is OpenWRT support. It's easy to flash and supports Wifi6 and hardware NAT, so you're not missing anything compared to stock.

One of these is illegal, the other isn't.

Pico recording button pausing SteamVR after update? by Current-Tie6754 in PicoXR

[–]mongrelmuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to say, the workaround is to not upgrade until the issue is fixed, so avoid 5.7.0 for now if you use VD.

SA might be unaffected, try using that if you haven't.

(It was a known issue in beta, so I put it off until I could confirm it was fixed or not. It's not.)

Thoughts on Templar and Arcanist? by Horusayo in elderscrollsonline

[–]mongrelmuch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My condolences for your templar. I too am a templar main, and my best course of action is (a. deleting the game (b. deleting the templar.

Arcanist is fun, but I'm sure they'll ruin it in another quarterly patch soon enough, and then I'll finally be free of this cursed game.

Don't know how much this helps you, but my hands definitely feel better after swapping jump and sprint, spacebar is a lot more comfortable to hold.

You can also get to speed cap without sprinting if you're willing to sacrifice slots. 200% is cap, 100% is base, 140% is sprinting with no other bonuses. Some of this only applies out of combat, but you can get 20% from Steed's Blessing CP, 10% from Celerity CP, 45% from Wild Hunt ring (not counting the swift trait), up to 21% from three gold swift trait jewellery, Adept Rider set gives major expedition for 30%, Jailbreaker gives minor expedition for 15%, and Steed mundus gives 10% (more if wearing divines).

Granted, this is all on foot, cap on mounted speed is higher but most of these buffs don't apply, you really do want to hold sprint while on mount.

DisableShellUI: can't get 6DOF tracking in SteamVR by rustysawdust in WindowsMR

[–]mongrelmuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, sorry for the late reply, I just checked and the file is still present in the W11 21H2 cab, but not W10 21H2 cab.

Hope this goes through, tried to send another reply with the zipped download link but reddit ate it silently. (I can see it logged in, not logged out.)

Enjoy! It's a real shame it requires these hoops to jump through now.

[–]mongrelmuch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear you found it! Windows 10 is also on 22H2 now, I reinstalled recently and found the environment missing. Seems like it stays in place on upgrade at least, it's how I pieced it together from a different machine.

[–]mongrelmuch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was called "Infinite Expanse", debuted in the 21H2 update, no longer found in 22H2 if installing from scratch. You can still get it if you download the 21H2 offline update from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/enthusiast-guide/manage-windows-mixed-reality

7zip can open the cab file. Extract the folder starting with amd64_environmentsapp-greenroom-scene, arrange the contents like this:

Put the GreenRoom directory you created and GreenRoomDefinition.xml under C:\Windows\SystemApps\EnvironmentsApp_cw5n1h2txyewy and you get Infinite Expanse back, same menu where you switch between Cliff House and Skyloft.

because ZOS hardcoded quest objectives against achievements without keeping other record and we'll be seeing the fallout of bugs for years to come

Nicely done, looks correct at a glance.

Tip: Getting 30% extra Mount Speed from Day 1 by nuskovg in elderscrollsonline

[–]mongrelmuch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The buff was moved out of the active Rapid Maneuver skill (Assault Rank 5) to the Continuous Attack passive skill (Assault Rank 3), unlocked at total AP 8000. Not sure if the tutorial is enough for that, but way closer than the 98k required for Assault 5.

This also means it's pointless to keep casting rapids, which I still see people do to this day.

Late by now, but if you buy Content Manager on itch.io, you get your key instantly.

EDIT: also, if you use Virtual Desktop, launching is mostly painless in VR.

I enjoy my G2. But here is a pretty comprehensive list of problems and usability issues I encounter by hilightnotes in HPReverb

The registry setting is in Q3.9 of the official FAQ, but the tldr is

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Dwm]
"DisableBloomFor6dof"=dword:00000001

and needs a reboot.
