VR Thread

I've pretty much tuned out any and all news about VR for the last 6-12 months due to how disappointing the entire venture has been. I now find myself in the position to receive a VR set of my choice for free spoiler it's fucking Christmas.

So my question to anyone who actually gives a fuck about this shit anymore, which VR set ended up being the least cucked? Which one has the largest library? Which one is easiest to play pirated software on? Are they region locked? Which one lets me fuck Miku?

People recommend OSVR but the vive will do too.

...

Resolution is shit on everything freely available. You will have screen door effect on all of them. Preferences might vary on that aspect, but let's go over the others

Source: I have tried them all.

In my opinion: Resolution is too shit to make it worth it right now, everything else works as intended for the most part. If the new HDK is going to take higher res screens and if you don't mind having to work on it to get it usable, go for it. Otherwise stick to the Vive.

Sounds like I'm getting a OSVR.

You're gonna have a bad time

t. Rift/Vive Shill

OSVR barely has any support though

OSVR is probably the best bet since it's development isn't been controlled by kikes.

I hope this is a joke

Be warned, it takes fiddling around.
On a side-note (and this applies to all HMD): If you get motion sickness, give it some time, force yourself a little bit, you should get over it after a while. I never experienced motion sickness myself, but know people who did and it got better over time.


What are you unable to do with it? I troubleshooted the one my friend brought, found plenty of support on the forum, the software is constantly getting better. It is an in-development product and it is not really meant for end-users, you will find complications. Idiots that can't install mods on games or that can't get their jap eroge to run in well should not even consider getting one.

If one thing kills VR it will be weak stomached faggots causing retard developers to gimp the VR versions with "grenade teleportation" and other ill-conceived horseshit instead of just expecting players to man the fuck up

I have never experienced or born witnessed to a happiness so pure and I'm worried I never will.

The problem with VR is that it's so damn expensive.

You know what really fucking grinds my gears? You can get a VR headset that you put your phone into for $25 now. Think there's going to be open source software that streams your desktop to your phone? NO FUCK YOU. Pay $15 for some shit made by Pajeet that barely even works and probably has ads.

What's the name of the game?
Because I want to be this happy. About anything, really.

Summer Lesson, PSVR exclusive. If you try to look up her skirt or down her shirt you get a morality warning

As a woman you can buy one of those dildos that feels like human skin with those machines that move them back and forth and even have them cum some artificial shit, then stick a HMD on your whore face, as a guy you're left with a trillion different toys that don't work or require you to wank yourself off on a fancy way but at least the vr part is showing progress. And then there's how no dude gives a shit about women getting plowed by machines but this waifu age shit is getting femishits fuming
Women have it much easier even when people aren't trying to make it much easier for them

...

Why is that gook having a seizure?

He has achieved nirvana.

He can now be socially awkward towards a woman that he knows wont fight back.

...

The warning is about something else

Law and order about 3D and 2D waifu being rapped when?

It might. I remember back in the PS-era when the first couple of really 3D-FPS games started to reach to the slightly more normalfags who -up to that time- had little to no experience with 3D, much less from the FPV perspective. People were getting motion sickness too, specially with that fucking small spaceship shooter inside of corridors: Small FOV, edgy polygon models and bright colors were a bit too much to many faggots, people just got used to it.


But "porting" is a thing, works reasonably well for the most part.
Vorpx and Vireio are the two main examples, people also make their own patches in some cases. Note: Not all games on the list work perfectly fine, most are usable, but there are issues with the FOV and some other shit. Vorpx is payed, but I remember seeing pirated versions a while ago, might be worth looking for it. Vive support is just becoming a thing now.
There are many games that are only supported by Vireio Perception, that one is both free and libre. If I'm not mistaken, the Khronos group is behind this too.

The feeling is mutual.

I forgot to add. There is also FOVE in the horizon, a HMD with eye tracking and fairly high resolution (2560x1440) that promises to be compatible with OSVR and SteamVR content. I'm a bit sceptic about eye tracking working perfectly fine, but, if they pull it off correctly, the computing demand reduction could be good enough to make it viable to have higher resolution screens.
There is also STAR VR, but that shit suffers from low refresh rate (60) and high hardware expectations (fucking 5k resolution that no reasonable computer can pull of with games on stereoscopic rendering with constant and stable FPS).

So what's the deal with glasses when it comes to these things?

I'd love to see if someone could make a Metroid VR game possible. I think loading up Trilogy for the first time was probably one of the most immersive experiences I've had with a game.

how about a robot fuck simulator where you're a robot getting fucked

You get eye contacts I guess. I don't think glasses would work. Wouldn't know myself, I have a perfect 20/20 eyesight in spite of decades of PC gaming and working in an office all day.


The last Nintendo console I owned was the Wii and that game was really something, even with the hardware limitations it looked really nice, played well and made out the most out of the wagglan shit without being a complete gimmick.
Maybe some dedicated faggot will get the Wii or the WiiU emulator to support stereoscopic rendering, it doesn't seem to be an overly far-fetched idea considering all the advancement they are doing with emulators, but I wouldn't sit around to wait for it.

Ok, forget about it.

Once I realized how much of a powerful gpu I needed just to be able to buy VR which would put me down more hundreds of dollars my face was all like "AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY"

quantum singularity nanocellular destructive recomposition computing is coming soon. just buy a headset now and wait it out.

You can play the prime trilogy in VR. You need Dolphin VR and some drug to reduce motion sickness. its really fucking cool

Also I'm getting a vive because my mom loves to spoil me, I'm exciteed to develop for it but I'm also interested in how much support it has.

Will all of the videos like work on a Vive? So if you're playing GZ3Doom it will work on Vive because they all do the weird circle lenses thing? Or is it more specialized than that?

I guess my question is, how universal is support for different VR stuff? Is there a 'general' thing that will work on all systems, and then beyond that you have specialized things like stuff designed for vive lightroom/controllers or stuff designed for oculus touch controllers?

Dolphin actually supports stereoscopic rendering already, which is fitting as the Gamecube actually was 3D-capable (and Luigi's Mansion was originally tested as a 3D game).

what

Anything that works on Dolphin can technically work on Dolphin VR, which does work with the Vive. I'm one of the unfortunate people that get nauseous whenever I anything that's not room scale.
GZ3Doom doesn't work with ReVive or the OpenVR libraries yet, so it's stuck on Oculus right now I haven't made a habit of checking, I know I'll fucking vomit my lunch if I play it

it's a shame, gz3doom is fun as fuck based on a buddy and I trying it on a DK1 once. It was so cool dodging fireballs in 3D, though I do feel like it made the game too easy, also you could tell that the viewport was scrunched as you had very poor visibility.

I look forward to working on making my own Doom game for VR.

For the most part, a lot of the VR content being made is produced for both Oculus and Vive, so chances are you'll be able to do whatever you want. Like, most VR games have a room scale, standing scale, or seated scale playing modes where Oculus is limited to just seated, whereas Vive can do all three.
You want to get two tripods to hold the lighthouses whenever you want to play and a large area. Or start seeking out studs in your wall and get a drill ready to put those motherfuckers in.
Lastly, as you probably got from my last post, most of the support goes into the openvr libraries, ReVive, or the Vive and Oculus sources. I know fuck all about development, but its apparently easy enough that there's a bunch of them being made with little to no effort.

the entire structure of the computer can be changed at the atomic level, so you can make a computer out of anything. it's got the processing power defined solely by the limits of what it can be programmed to do. the black hole that powers it exists on another dimension entirely. it'll be in my upcoming movie.

cats truly are better than dogs

Surprised no one has talked about Onward,the only VR game, other than porn. That seems interesting, and is not using shitty gimicks.

doesnt valve have the devs of Onward on their payroll now? The new level they actually has some semblance of quality to it.

>THE IMPLICATIONS

He is going to fug that cat.


That one is really great. For a more casual experience, there is also horseshoes hot dogs and hand grenades, really good for firearm masturbation, but not as much of a game.

no i didnt hear about that, if that's true then maybe this game can go farther than what I was previously hoping. Like Project Reality VR, with motion controls as well if dont right, the shit stops being a gimmick

At least the man is getting some pussy

word on the inside says their control scheme will look something like this

I like to think that those echoes are signs are him ascending to the 2d plane.

from what I remember the warning is that the player has moved out of detection range.


A cat is fine too.

Because I'm a cheap fuck, I've been using Google Cardboard and a decent (see: decent for $20) headset, alongside Trinius. It's nowhere near perfect and honestly the head-tracking leaves much to be desired but until there's enough content to justify that expensive of a specialized purchase I'm not investing more into it. That said, I'm here for the same reason most people probably are: porn. What's good in terms of vr porn and porn games?

That said, /vir/ is a dead but useful board. Might want to browse some threads there and see what's what.

How long until I'll be able to follow my dreams?

Last time I tried games with vorpx there were tons of HUD problems

Does it support aiming with the stick? or you have to do that "see to aim" shit?

OSVR will end up being the android of VR: cheap and poweful

Why? because any company can make it, just like android

The guy had to teach the nigger guns aren't powered by magic

Holy shit that .gif is oldschool as fuck.

God I hope not.

honestly the vive is the only good vr experience but you need a whole room to move around in and do shit in, i had the time of my life on the vive at pax where the oculus and osvr were more "interesting" experiences rather than fun

Disgusting.

I only came to this thread to post this webm but I gotta say, is fucking hilarious if it's real.

The problem with that video specifically is that you can't adjust your view with a head turn, and in prime trilogy also you still have to point towards the corners of the screen to turn as well. If there were a way to separate aiming with the gun to be bound to something like the Vive's controller, while binding the view point to the goggles to separate the two, it'd be an amazing start, but that would probably requiring modifying the game data of the iso itself, not to mention having to somehow build a custom version of Dolphin to also read the controls of the vive as well.

You can adjust the Dolphin VR settings so you can use the headset to look around
You can even use wagglan

But he still has to use the controller to turn. It's close, but not quite there.

Regarding ports, I heard that the game has to be further optimized deliberately for VR use. As in, you can't just take any FPS and simply make it compatible with a VR headset and expect it work. I think it was possibly related to motion sickness and having a high minimum fps. Anyone know if this is true or not?

I want to know a few things about OSVR.
-Is there a way I can use it to replace my monitor and do everyday things on my desktop?
-Are there a way I can get any game to run in side by side 3D. I don't care too much for tracking I just want an immersive 3D display.
-Is it worth $300 for the development kit or should I wait till the product is finished?

Longer version.

Ruins it.

Doom3 VR for the vive. It's terrifying.

see

Didn't they already do that with an episode about secondlife?

Also the problem with all this immersion shit is that it's making video games into something exhausting, when I want to play a video game I don't want to be running on an omni-directional treadmill with a heavy haptic feedback suit on and holding a big toy gun while wearing a VR headset, that's fucking ridiculous. I want to be able to just sit and dick about with a controller or a mouse and keyboard without giving myself whip last and an hour long workout.

I'd go for the vive just for the room tracking, god knows how much camera the oculus required to get the same result, and better reselling value.
Assuming you're owning a 970gtx or close to that, don't try supersampling: You'll get immediately bitten by the need to get a lot more horsepower. High end GPU aren't cheap. Been there done that, now i own a 1080.

VR is a godsend.

People have reported that the PIMAX 4K doesn't have it. It's only 60 Hz and only tracks rotation so it's otherwise pretty useless.

The best temp solution to screendoor is using lenses that are slightly too strong. The image gets softer but that's the same effect you've gotten with every upscaled console game for a decade though so unless you are mustered you should be immune.

Vive 2 when?

I think I'll finally upgrade my i5-2500k + R9 280 when that happens.

Oh and when we're at it: Today update.

i never really considered this before but metroid really would be one of the easiest games to do in VR. i mean, pointing your wagglan stick to shoot is the exact motion samus makes to aim her arm cannon anyways, and even metroid 3 with its grappling hook/door opening motions was pretty immersive insofar as the motions you make with your wagglan shit is pretty much exactly what your avatar is doing

thank you user, i didn't realize i wanted this but now i want it real bad

if it makes you feel any better, i live in british columbia and we just, like two weeks ago, finally got a competitor to the province-owned insurance company. if we canacucks can finally figure it out there is hope for you

Dead as in nobody visits it, the owner is still around apparently since he took down a sticky that's been up for a long while this week.

lmao the device at the end

why does she need a fan when there's already an air conditioner and a double door to the balcony?
those things can kill you, you know

Fucking hell, this is amazing! Imagine what it would be like to play any competitive FPS game with this thing? Imagine aiming railguns in Quake with it! The accuracy you could get with it, provided it works as well as advertized (lmao) would be insane, and it even solves the problem with how to control your aim and not your view with the mouse. Even the tracking you can get with this instead of the mouse would be so much better…

...

I really want to get into VR but not this expensive gen 1 VR.

Trump really made anime real.

The feminazi retards will only become more obnoxiously vocal and make people fed up with their bullshit faster.

That shit would thankfully get slammed into disgrace in no time.

EAT

FUCKING
SALAD
YOU
FAT
MOTHERFUCKER

...

I would always advice fat people to exercise more instead. That's how I stopped being a fatty and I didn't have to give up anything or change my diet.

Entirely depends on how many calories you're eating. You were probably eating your maintenance or slightly above, and exercising pushed you below your maintenance so you lost weight. There are anons here right now that eat anywhere from 1000 to even 3000+ over their maintenance every day. No amount of exercise will burn that many excess calories.

Ah, understood. Cheers!

Any particular recommendations? There is a lot of stuff there, which sort of makes me lost.

Word of mouth goes a long way.

Plot device, the fan lift her skirt.

Has the show stopped looking like bad CG yet

That is the first filename I've laughed at in a long time. Thanks.

She's a kid

Yes. You shouldn't let him do it, tho, because they may have babies and the babies can have some deformity.

I finished the Ukrainian tree on Duolingo today, will be taking conversational lessons from my university friend next semester.
In the mean time, I'm considering starting up the Esperanto tree. Can anyone recommend me some good Esperanto music to have in the background?

What games would make a great VR game if it were possible to Jerry Rig them to be VR?

what are their names before I die

That just means more advanced drugs

What kind of drugs did they put in the nasal compartment of that headset?

delusional nintenboys who fell for his "passion" and "child-like joy, just like me!" for nintendo.

thanks user, I must be pretty close to getting through that door and most people seem to enjoy the game a lot. Are the later Acts better?

Nigga, people defend black alt Pit for fuck sake. people just do that because "lol get fuck faggot, my char is better than your shit, tasty salt~" They don't care who the character is, they just troll.

Fine then, be that way.

Don't judge till we see it,even though you're probably right

What did you wanted?

True immersion is only achieved if game you are playing is actually legitimately good and you like playing it. No helmet will help to get immersed in virtual world of shit games. No helmet will make games like fallout 4 better.

Kikes and greedy people in general don't want to waste money on making good games, so they waste money on gimmick hardware, to make normalfags pretend they are having better experience with them.

No, but he's become a bit of sad sack.
Drinks a lot and throws up over mic.
Still sometimes funny over twitch, but eh, it's not why I started liking him in the first place.
Said in October to expect a late halloween video in Novemeber, no peep of it.

This will be the biggest piece of shit talking simulator and you guys will eat it up like hotcakes.

I like how its an obvious parody of summer lesson

Except you could use a fluffy pillow for the same shit cats that are good for.

Really? I love this. What do you dislike about this?

NCR has alot of dumbasses working for them, it's a wonder how they even defeated the BoS

the only thing VR is good for at this point at games where the player is stationary (flight and vehicle sims) and porn. unless you want to spend $2000+ on multi directional treadmills and other shit

i thought the winter part in the beginning of 5 was pretty tight.

If I was from Cyrodiil I'd be ashamed. Guess saving humanity is up to High Rock now.

...

I was gonna get a cheap pair anyways not spending $100+ on gaming glasses lol

could not stop thinking of this

A cheaper Vive 1.5 with improved controllers is rumoured to be in development and should be out this time next year. The base stations that shoot lasers they've reduced the cost by roughly half and improved the sensing on the headset to reduce the manufacturing tolerances.

An expensive Vive 2 with higher resolution isn't a viable product when most of their customers are struggling to get decent frame rates as it is. No developer is going to bother with such a tiny segment of users. I'd expect it to be shown off in 2018 maybe.

I'm waiting for Linux support, libre drivers that don't require Steam and a few decent porn games like monster girl island before considering buying the cheaper 1.5 version.

I used to be all for the OSVR but it's been a disaster software wise and there's been almost no real improvement. If I had to chose from the HMDs available right now I'd go with the Vive.
