But if you made the model yourself, they can't really do anything about that? Unless you start selling it to people, then yeah, they will heat-seek you. But if you make a Charizard for yourself then I think you're legally fine. If you started selling ripped models or selling your copyrighted character models then yeah, I think that's illegal, chief. But commissions for copyright should be fine afaik? We're like two years out from being able to have unique 3d models made for us by an AI anyway, so modelers won't really have to worry about litigious copyright holders.

Most of the paid world/models I've seen have all been original creations. People tend to be smart about not charging for ripped assets.

forest spirit posted:But if you made the model yourself, they can't really do anything about that? A) No, copyright doesn’t say “a commissioned copy is fine.” B) Even if it did, the copyright holder has more money and lawyers than you and both can and will use that to force you/the platform to take down your content.

I'm specifically talking about using in-app systems to charge (in whatever way) for ripped or fan art assets, yeah. In any case, that's all VRChat's problems to solve. They have as much copyright debt as they have technical debt and I'd love to see them remain the wild west, so godspeed to them.

Had about 30 minutes with this Quest Pro and it's already pissing me off. - Can't use it without converting your Oculus account to Meta, which claims all your info can be private, then says "actually anyone can search up your name/username, gently caress you" and there's no option to change them that I see - The IPD adjustment has no resistance/friction at all, so I have to bring it down to the minimum IPD and then the bridge of my nose pushes the lenses all the way back out to 64-ish if I hold still, and if I nod my head to the side will split them out to the max. No other headset has done this before - The charge dock requires a perfectly flat surface for everything, which being a couch gamer with a cluttered house means I just have to have it on the floor. That's more of a me-problem but I don't see why they all couldn't have had USB-C charge ports. Even then on a flat surface, I saw the charge indicator come on for the headset, but after leaving it overnight it is only at 15% from empty so I guess the pogo connectors aren't solid. - Light blockers don't block anything on the underside... obnoxious during the day + Controllers track really well so that's nice + The passthrough resolution, while not stupendous, is actually enough that I can touch-type on my laptop keyboard if I turn the keyboard backlight all the way up. Anything less than max and the keys will blink on camera from the LED modulation. Passthrough camera also good enough to eat jerky while I'm using it + Built-in audio is quite good, much better than Quest 1 Anyway, it's been a while since I checked up on the remote desktop offerings. Have Bigscreen or ALVR or anyone else been able to approach the Virtual Desktop realm of usability? I bought VD for Steam long time back and I don't like having to buy it a second time for Quest if I can avoid it, especially since the dev is kinda a dick.

I've been loving around with Immersed and while they do some nice stuff they are also frustrating in some other ways. They're really made to be either used with a laptop, or used while sitting at the desktop machine you're connected to. They're not made with remote access in mind; not yet anyway.

For 2D gaming specifically, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if a sideloaded Moonlight apk was less jank than literally every option except Virtual Desktop. You’re kinda stuck buying it if you want to play flatscreen stuff. I think it’s on sale right now, coincidentally enough. Leathal fucked around with this message at 02:14 on Oct 31, 2022 |

Developed to be a mascot for the Oculus Rift hardware platform, Zuckerberg was developed within the Horizon Worlds avatar creator. Many consumers have reported confabulations (i.e. false memories) of Mark Zuckerberg appearing in senate hearings.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gVzIPptQww I visited this clusterfuck in horizon last night and got kicked out for spamming the "boo" sound in the "producer's booth". It was a fever dream of looping family feud theme and kids trying to figure out how to play while someone shouts racial slurs. One of the big issues is that with the default "safety" settings people can't get close enough to be at the podiums. akadajet fucked around with this message at 19:08 on Oct 31, 2022 |

Yup, though my centering is much more nebulous. I tested what my hands do while typing and found that while my right hand hits the "h" key, it's my left hand that extends out to hit the "y" key. Right hand is meant to be on the mouse by default so when I have to type I end up reaching across at an angle. Right hand winds up resting roughly along the angled m-k-l axis.

Being an old nerd who hates going out for all sorts reasons, being able to see the sights in VR has been extremely relaxing. I need to finish my computer rebuild, first. My poor i7-6700 has been in service for so long that I can feel it when the computer gets pushed too hard.

No surprise that meta's earnings were below expectations + stock price literally fell off a cliff

MikusR posted:With touch typing you don't.  Anyway, I got Sidequest going on the Quest Pro, and ALVR works out of the gate as a free game streaming option. Both it and AirLink seem to have some tracking latency, like they both do the timewarp thing to make turning your head look smooth, but the controller and head 6DOF positioning update very choppily. I'll dig into it more. ALVR latency is good enough for something relaxed like Moss. Also surprising to me is that the Quest Pro has some very obvious ghosting, like if you turn your head where there's a black background with white test you can see the image persist. I wasn't expecting that on some super-modern LCD panel. Is it not IPS? I feel like they should have gone back to OLED. OLED has the reverse of that ghosting (completely black pixels lag to turn back on) which makes them smear in dark scenes, but in all other cases OLED just looks way better, especially if they can score RGB-stripe like Sony. Has any app for Quest Pro actually implemented eye-tracked foveated rendering yet? I don't get why they didn't at least go for a higher res display to leverage that.
