are there good and (relatively) inexpensive minipcs i could use as a vr box? i recognize that the card is going to be the most expensive component but my vision is to have a physically small box i can tuck away in a corner that is dedicated to running games via airlink on the quest 2 i dont own a regular desktop pc and dont have any room for one

i actually do have a gaming laptop with a pretty good card that is theoretically vr ready in it (it can run cyberpunk at 1080 raytraced), the only problem is that it turns into an oven and slows down to a crawl after an hour or so. i guess i could cannabalize it for parts but i'm absolutely not confident in my ability to build computers

explosivo posted:I would definitely invest in some replacement facial interfaces from VR Cover if you're getting a used one. You have no idea whose face was touching that foam and how sweaty they were when they did it. i mean beyond that the stock cover is also bad at blocking out light coming in through the nose section. its also very bad at venting out moisture and heat if youre playing something very active or working out in vr. i got one from kiwi designs and havent had an issue with it since

they should never ever show footage of someone walking around with a pair of goggles on their face if they want to sell vr or vr games yet they do it constantly

ok i need some troubleshooting help. ended up setting my laptop up for vr with my link over both air and cable and am running into the same issue. sometimes everything runs like a dream sometimes i get endless tearing and slowdowns checked heat and it doesnt seem to be a difference. think its cpu, memory, or somethint else. anyone have any hints? weird thing is, it runs perfectly smoothly on the little window showing in the laptop display

Lemming posted:Dude shooting sucks so bad in VR. Yeah it's fine, but it's so disappointing that it seems to be a huge focus in so many games. The interesting parts of VR are being able to engage and interact with the world, and a glorified laser pointer that just makes something far away dead is one of the least interesting ways of interacting with that world. i enjoy shooting in vr in games in games where my gun isnt my hand and i have the opportunity to accidently eject my magazine, drop my gun and then accidentally shoot myself trying to pick it up again in a panic. into the radius is great for this

honestly the most ive enjoyed gunplay has been re4. enough simulation that you can do revolver ocelot tricks, but also fantastical enough that you can do revolver ocelot tricks. i found out almost all the way through the game that you can reload your weapons by throwing the ammo into the air and catching it with your gun, and from then on that was the only way i reloaded

when i moved out of the city i was able to afford a 2bedroom (for what i was paying for rent in 2012). originally the plan was for a remote office but it has since become the laundry/vr room. before then i had to slide the coffee table into a corner for "roomscale" and you can bet i lightly punched the tv once or twice

is there some sort of setting on the oculus to keep it from just waking up every time its slightly jostled? i found that i have to hard power it off unless its plugged in, or else a particularly heavy truck going by will wake it up on its own

by my calculations you can but 7 75 inch roku tvs from wal mart for the price of the headset. so if you really want screens all around your house id recommend that because roku tvs have software that can run on it

ive gone into the weird reboot mode after leaving it alone for 6 months and the battery had fully died and it didnt want to wake up, but i dont think i ever had to factory reset anything. im guessing all my saves are local because why would they do anything for me for making me put all my info into the ecosystem
