I don't suppose there's a way to tell SteamVR to ignore controllers that are currently tethered by USB? Sometimes I just want to use my Vive Wands for VRChat, and I gotta remember to unplug the Index controllers when I do or it thinks they're ALL active and tries to force full-body tracking.

Is there any way to better deal with motion sickness? Just keep taking breaks and hope it gets better?

If you force your way through it your body will just learn that VR makes you sick. I can’t speak to the time it takes though. It took me about a week, but my nausea wasn’t bad to begin with and I have an iron stomach when it comes to this stuff

But just about anything with ginger is an antinauseant

Get a beer hat and attach it to your HMD then put ginger beer into the holsters.

It has to be real ginger. Ginger ale/soda doesn't work.

Also take a look at what games you’re playing. In the beginning Rec Room would make me nauseous. Partially because it was my first FPS in VR and partially because at the time I didn’t have enough CPU to run it well. So when I would get nauseous I would switch to a chill sit down game like PokerStars. I think it helped teach my brain I could be in VR and not feel sick. Playing some hands of poker and talking to others while I sat down helped a lot, for me anyway. The hard part about this stuff is it’s somewhat up to your anatomy, and differs for everyone.

Try placing a fan blowing air over you that can help, too. Even more so if it's chilled like standing under an A/C vent.

Someone posted a big pack of beat saber custom songs on the beat saber sub-reddit but I'm not seeing a clear/simple way to add them via sidequest/bmbf. BMBF lets you remote in via browser but the upload function doesn't seem to work. Sideloading the custom songs folder directly via sidequest throws a wrench on bmbf and it doesn't sync the songs correctly (after searching them via bmbf's reload songs tools).

I could eat a piece of pepperoni off the floor after it's been there for weeks and not feel a thing, but if I try to read in a moving car (or play certain VR games) it's puke o'clock. I'll have to try the ginger tip.

It’s because the problem was never actually in your stomach! Brains are fuckin weird. Forgive the  if this comes up all the time in this thread, but I find this phenomenon really fascinating.Motion sickness from VR or from being in a car/on a plane are two sides of the same issue: a disagreement between your body’s various methods for perceiving motion and orientation. Your vision, your inner ear canals, and your various nerves and muscles all play into this. VR creates a visual perception of motion that your ears and body are not matching. This can trigger an “oh gently caress am I poisoned? Better empty the stomach” response in the brain. AFAIK the exact reasons your brain freaks out this way aren’t fully understood, but I’m no brain doctor. It’s the same trigger for car sickness, sea sickness, air sickness, and even spinning rides. VR has an additional avenue for the disconnect: latency. It’s why framerate, latency, and accurate tracking are so critical to a good VR experience. Even a slight delay between turning your head and the image following suit can cause severe nausea. I fly planes for a living. Have had no issues in an airplane since my early flight training, but simulators can cause an issue that I find interesting. While flying the simulator, I’m fine. Taxiing the simulator triggers a “what the gently caress” sensation like VR can. When I turn the simulator on the ground, my eyes see a rotation around the vertical axis. The simulator doesn’t have the capability to just pivot in place, so it tries to trick you by tilting slightly to give a sensation of turning. But it’s the wrong axis, and my brain flips out at it. The good news is the brain is very adaptable in addition to being fuckin weird. Like others have suggested, take it slow. Play a little at a time. Things will slowly improve. In addition to ginger, Dramamine might help? I haven’t specifically heard anyone try this for VR, but it is used to mitigate motion sickness.

It’s weird what little things get you. I can sit in iracing all day long in VR and I’m fine. The second I back the car up and then hit the brakes to stop it, my stomach drops to the floor. It’s so strange that just the act of reversing then braking does it. Flying around a track for an hour? That’s fine though

The second I back the car up and then hit the brakes to stop it, my stomach drops to the floor. I notice this too in dirt rally 2.0 since it makes you come to a stop at the stage end instead of just going into slowmo when crossing the line like dirt rally did. Feel nothing on the heavy intensity courses / heavy breaking for hairpins. Crashing into stuff at full speed isn't a problem, but the transition from slow speed to a complete stop is unpleasant.

Has anyone played I Expect You to Die? It's pretty good but I'm stuck on Deep Dive, the third level in the sub. I can get to the end but I can't put the combination in fast enough. The loving dial just flies 3-4 numbers at the slightest touch so I waste the entire countdown trying to put in the combination. I'm using a Rift S with Oculus Touch. Is there some way to just have the dial behave normally? I tried grabbing and using telekinesis, it just spazzes out. They should've just made it a loving keypad, its absurd to be roadblocked by this.

Jim Silly-Balls posted:I’m honestly surprised there isn’t a way for the Rift to represent the touch controllers as a single Xbone controller considering it has all the right buttons and the early ones even shipped with actual Xbone controllers A little late on my reply, but Oculus already has something like this. The problem is that you CAN'T get full gamepad emulation, so the game itself has to enable the feature. https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/pcsdk/latest/concepts/dg-gamepad-emulation-touch/?locale=en_US It is quite apparent why when you scroll down the page. You either give up the dpad + view button, or you give up one of the two joysticks.

How hard would it be for a game developer to add support for a VR headset as a stereoscopic display? Not full immersion, but genuine depth perception in an otherwise "flat" image. It seems to me you'd just need to render from two cameras an eyewidth apart, but im no programmer / dev.

I didn't have huge expectations, but it's fun to jump into sometimes to play a flat game on a giant 3d screen. I haven't messed with it in a while, but I played a bunch of Rocket League and GTA V.
