That seems very cool (pun intended) assuming you don’t have to listen to a fan whirring away the whole time you play

When I start to get motion sick in the headset it makes me sweat which fogs up the glasses and it's a compounding effect. I can't always find a fan to point at me while I'm playing so if this kept me on the cooler side with moving air I think that could help prevent sickness in longer sessions.

It's likely more that the moving air tricks your senses a bit and prevents the nausea from happening as your body thinks it is actually moving when it isn't. The defoggong is a big help though.

The games are: Maskmaker Singularity Ayahuasca HoloBall Gloomy Eyes Lethal VR Vetrix War Remains Knee Deep Duckpocalypse Chained Visionarium Vestige Viking Rage Battlescar Emily Wants to Play Hoops VR The only one I've seen mentioned here in a good light was Maskmaker which you can pick up by itself for £0.89, or like I dunno 1.20 dollarydoos? I've not played any of these so if anyone wants to make recommendations please go ahead!

Zaphod42 posted:Broomstick locomotion really feels pretty solid. I find this much more comfortable than smooth movement on foot, something about sitting and gently gliding around just works great. A couple thoughts when i look at this. It seems like, if the point of the game is flying around tossing deliveries at people or thier homes or whatever, maybe the broom should handle a bit more like a plane where you can't come to a dead stop? This might add some more physicality and skill to the game where you can't just fly to the next point, park, take your time tossing out a pizza, you have to be moving and timing things more. Also, maybe it would be smoother to have the items being delivered something other than pizza? Pizza is rather large and awkward, whereas if its something not fragile and easy to hold you could just have a pouch on your back or side or whatever with the items so people delivering them can just reach back or down or whatever and toss them with an easy one handed motion. I don't know exactly how you plan to lay out the game so I don't know if those suggestion apply when looking at the full idea, but they were some things that popped into my head when looking at the videos.

If I wanted to make it more challenging that's totally the sort of thing I'd do, but I don't think it needs to be challenging. I'm already having fun just flying around. I like the idea of games with no hard fail state, especially in VR where everything is already a bit of a hassle. If this was a game on a controller it would need to be fundamentally very different, but since its VR... it works. And I can introduce some soft challenge by just timing how fast you can deliver like 5 pizzas in a row, so if a player wants to push it they can go for delivering the pizzas on the move without stopping for faster time, but then if you don't and you get a bad time its like, eh, no big deal. But if you get a really fast time then you can feel good. Soft-failure! Optional challenge! Its not going to hold your attention for hours, I don't have the resources to build the kind of game that would. I picture this as being like Crazy Taxi, you sit down, do a few deliveries, run out of time, go "that was fun" and then quit and play something else. Maybe after a few days you go back and deliver a few more pizzas, because the chill feeling of flying is relaxing. Zaphod42 fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Jul 30, 2021 |

If this was a game on a controller it would need to be fundamentally very different, but since its VR... it works. I think instead of a timer in some cases, maybe precision? Make a combo multiplier for successful pizza tosses in a row, with maybe an accuracy rating from "got it on the lawn" to "its on the porch" to "landed on the Pizza Delivery Round Door Mat Everyone has" and successive hits give more points. In my mind it has an obnoxious Tont Hawk scoring combo chain on the bottom like "Yardza x2+PORCHZA!+Yardza+BULLSEYEZA!!!" because I'm a sucker for enthusiasm and combo chains

They roll out updates and features in tyool 2021 when literally everyone who owns a VR headset is extremely online and it just pisses everyone off because the first person to get a feature or firmware posts about it 30 seconds after it happens and everyone is like “where the gently caress is my X!?!?!” For real though where the gently caress is my 120hz!?!?!

Vermillion is pretty cool, but the brushes don't quite work like real ones, and I think the blending on the canvas happens too aggressively (there is a setting and it's already minimized) but the program's pretty cool overall. I'm no painter but I maked this, it was a chill time Thanks to Bob Ross in a docked browser window

Index help! Getting code 108 headset not detected, blue front lights. However Windows camera app shows output from the headset stereo cameras, and disabling direct mode shows the extended desktop within the headset. I have tried all the various combos of rebooting, replugging, different ports and reseating the tether. No updates or changes before it happened. Just over 1 year of usage. I will be opening a Steam ticket soon. Symptom of tether cable wearing out?

Swap USB/DP ports. 108 tends to be cable if you have power on everything else. Breakaway and Headset side are trouble points for the cable. Hopefully its just cable.

No way I'd make something like that from scratch on my own.

Is there a go-to for VR dungeon crawling? Ideally roguelite or randomly generated, but it just feels like a good meaty hack and slash with some random equipment and maybe the occasional perk would blow up, and I haven't seen much in that line.
