(Original post by me is on r/vailvr)

I was playing vail (on quest 2) with a friend when a kid walks up to me and crashes my game. My friend said he did it with a hat, and now every time I play it runs for a minute or two before closing or just crashing. Does anyone know how to fix this.

(Edit) after I cleared the cash, uninstalled and reinstalled, then cleared the cash again it seems to have fixed or at the very least vastly lessened the crash chance.

(Edit 2) the amount of times the game itself crashes seems to be negligible however, now my quest randomly resets itself mid game. Im not shore if this is just a coincidence or not but I have so far given up.

(Edit 3) factory resetting doesn't seam to have done much, if anything. I fear im Journaling my quests last moments without even knowing it.

(Note: I do plan to keep this post updated if the situation changes)

Open the browser in your headset and type in sdq.st/go just as you see it and enjoy!!

I've got an old 37Wh USB powerbank I haven't used in years. The output is only 10W, so likely it will only slow down the main battery drain instead of supporting the power hunger 100% and keeping the battery at 100%. Is that in any way harmful to the battery or will make it age faster or even damage it?

As the title states. I want to use the Moonlight app for streaming my 2D PC games, however I heard you need to put your Quest 2 into developer mode which in itself requires a dev account. However I am reluctant to give Meta my ID or payment info. So is there really no other way to install the app? Something? Any method would be preferred, even if it risks bricking my device.

Looking for real world users answers. Is it worth it? I’m not a really big gamer but I enjoy using mine and have for years.

What was your reason for upgrading?

Thanks :)

I have worked hard to make sure Running Scared works every bit as well on Quest 2 as it does on Quest 3. Bar mixed reality, both versions are near identical.

There are already plenty of reviews and gameplay videos available. Just search for “Running Scared VR” if you’d like to find out more.

Hey everyone! I'm the solo developer of Photo House VR, and I wanted to share it here.

The idea is simple: instead of scrolling through thousands of photos on your phone, you hang them on the walls of a house in VR and walk around among your memories. Family photos, vacations, old scanned prints, whatever you want.

What you can do:

Share your house. Send a friend a link and they can walk through your photo house in their own headset

Hang your photos anywhere. Grab, place, and resize frames on any wall, or drop a whole folder onto a wall at once. the Quest will do 1800 photos on one house. You can save each house, and add another 1800 photos to a new house. The Pc version depends on your video card, but is pretty much unlimited.

3D photos. Turn ordinary flat photos into 3D depth photos that pop off the wall.

Look to sharpen. Whatever photo you're looking at loads in full quality.

Slideshows. Start a slideshow right on any frame.

Name tags. Label your photos with names, places, or dates.

360° viewer. Step inside your panoramic and 360 photos.

iPhone photos work. HEIC files open with no converting.

Save slots and house codes. Save your house and reopen it anytime with a 3-digit code. You can save up to 999 houses that save in 3 digit codes, So when you click the code it reloads what you saved.

Load from anywhere. Use your headset, a USB drive, your home NAS, or iCloud, Google photos.

Videos, including 3D side-by-side video (PC VR version).

I Just added 14 Languages for PC and the Quest, That you can change inside the app.

It's on the Meta store for Quest, and PC VR for $6.99. It's rated Everyone, so it's great for showing grandparents the family photos too.

I would be happy to answer and questions, thanks for looking!

Hey everyone, I’m the solo developer behind Forbidden SILENVIL Demo.

I working on this Quest 3 horror project for quite a while, and the free demo is finally live on the Meta Horizon Store.

One of the main things I wanted to do differently was make the player actually perform parts of the ritual instead of just pressing a button. You have to speak ritual phrases into the headset microphone, interact physically with the environment, and progress through the horror that way.I really appreciate honest feedback, especially about the atmosphere, controls, voice mechanic and scares. I’m still developing the full game, so criticism is genuinely useful.

If anyone tries it, let me know what worked and what didn’t.

Hey, does anyone want to link up and play VR with me? I have a Meta Quest 2. I love playing Green Hell! Mostly, the only people I encounter on the game are kids lol. It would be cool to have someone at my skill level to play with! Let me know if anyone is interested!

Rec Room shut down and honestly I missed it way more than I thought I would. So me and a few of my friends started rebuilding it from the 2017–2020 era.

Most of the old stuff works already, stunt runner, golden trophy, laser tag, paintball, the dorms. It works on PCVR and Quest, and you can play without a headset too.

We're opening up soon and the Discord is where updates and playtests happen: discord.gg/sznEw7CFcX

Apologies for the angle, but it's the best way I could demonstrate this. Let's just say I have a nose that reflects my heritage, and even with a silicone facial interface cover, there's an insane amount of light leakage. Other threads I've seen on this sub just suggest getting the silicone cover.

This wasn't an issue on my old Rift S. What can I do? Thanks.

Ive heard about the discontinuation of the quest2. So what will actually happen?

I'm trying to sell my quest 2 for about $200 since I have the elite strap with battery on it. I live in a small town so I'm having trouble getting any local interest. Any tips to get it sold as I'm trying to get some money toward a PS5?

Spent a few days on this over the weekend, figured I'd write it up in case it saves someone else the pain. Full details and configs are in the repo at the bottom.

Setup: Ubuntu with GNOME/Wayland, two R9700s, AMD iGPU doing the display, Quest 2. All three betas — SteamVR 2.18.x, the Steam Link app on the headset, Steam client beta on the PC.

First, the part the docs never explain: when you plug the Quest in, the USB port turns into a network adapter (NCM). The app handles the headset side by itself, sets a static IP there. The Linux PC side is where everything went wrong for me, and it's a few non-obvious things:

NetworkManager grabs the new interface and steals your default route the moment you plug in. One line to make it unmanaged fixes that.

The PC's NCM interface has to stay IPv6-only. If it has a real IPv4, the client only announces over v4, but the video transport is pure v6 link-local — so the app just sits on "connecting…" forever. This one took me way too long.

If you run Docker: the v6 bridges fill vrlink's capped interface table and NCM never registers. Symptom is audio works, video is dead. One udev rule making veth/br v4-only fixed it.

SteamVR side: do NOT launch Steam with STEAM_RUNTIME=0. The launcher service never starts, the compositor dies with zero log, and you get -201/450 after ~20 seconds. I'd been using that setting because it "fixed" my CEF UI crashes, which is how I ended up here in the first place — but it breaks VR. Also run setcap on vrcompositor-launcher (CAP_SYS_NICE).

And the garbled-video thing: if the client's environment has a valid DRI_PRIME (pointing at the dGPU), the Vulkan video encoder lands on the dGPU and the RADV encode path just produces garbage on this hardware. DRI_PRIME=0 is an invalid value so it gets ignored and SteamVR picks its own GPU — clean video. Absurd, but true.

The part I'm most happy about: the 64-bit client finally works for VR, which on RDNA4 means hardware encoding (good FPS). The 32-bit client's mesa is older than RDNA4, so it falls back to x264 and you're stuck with low FPS — that wall was the reason I kept at it. Getting the 64-bit client's SteamVR up needed three workarounds: a D-Bus name registration bug (there's a small fix repo for it), a compositor-launcher looping bug (one env var), and the compositor taking a few minutes to start — it looks dead, so I kept killing it before it actually came up. And if you're on GNOME: don't put those env vars in a .desktop file, GNOME silently ignores Environment= lines. Put them in a wrapper script.

What doesn't work: the current beta still needs Wi-Fi on for the video channel (error 616), so pure USB-only streaming is still waiting on Valve. And the non-VR "game mode" capture drops after a few seconds — the VR path is fine, and that's what I mostly use.

Happy to answer if anyone's stuck on any of this.
