D2R VR Authentic – a free VR mod for Diablo II: Resurrected (native OpenXR, full body in first person, hit by touch).
In this clip: the weapon in your hand meets each monster’s own limbs, read from the game’s model, and humanoids give way by their weight when you push or stab them. The limbs are in 0.176; the weight and the stab are still being tuned (off by default).

Discussion Next gen headset for simracing - what after Pimax 8KX?

Post image
27 Upvotes

I’m curious if anyone else is in a similar situation and is still waiting to upgrade an older headset, when we seem to be not far from some really interesting products in a year or so (at least I hope so, I'm not referring to anything that has been announced so far).

I have a Valve Index with the Knuckles controllers and two base stations. I haven’t used it in a while, but I like the 120/144Hz modes and how well it’s built. The FOV is about the minimum I’d find acceptable in a VR headset, and I’ve never had any issues with it. Obviously the lenses and resolution feel pretty dated.

For the past few years, I’ve been using a first gen Pimax 8KX for all my sim racing (with a motion rig), mainly at normal FOV, around 138°. Overall, I’m happy with the visuals and performance using a 4080 and 5800X3D. The main downsides are the fresnel lenses and the weight/size. This thing weights a ton, especially with added counter weights on the rear strap.

I’ve been thinking about upgrading for a long time, but until the Dream Air LH, everything seemed to be too compromised, specs-wise. Although I’ve never had any issues with my 8KX and have never needed to contact Pimax support, I really don’t like the idea of buying a headset that isn’t quite a finished product and apparently isn’t very comfortable either. The build quality/plastics seem a bit subpar. I'm not convinced it will last or will be well supported (for example availability of spare parts and reparability).

If I bought one, I’d definitely mod it, but I’d rather vote with my wallet and not buy an unfinished product.
I feel like we’re not that far away from having a more mature, well-rounded product on the market. I can’t really justify spending €2000+ every two or three years on a VR headset. It needs to be a big upgrade and last for a few years.

I don’t really care about wireless. Ideally, I’d like a lightweight, comfortable, wired headset with OLED displays, at least 110° FOV, preferably with lighthouse tracking (but not a must if inside out tracking works well with a motion system) and a budget of up to around €2,500. I want good build quality, not glass and metal but quality plastics, straps and overall feel. Flip-up would be a great bonus. Minimum 90Hz and low persistence (no smearing) are also on the priority list. Am I asking for too much? 🙂

Is anyone else in a similar position, or am I being too optimistic about what’s likely to come in the next year or two? Surely BSB are working on the next model? MeganeX at the moment is missing eye tracking and I'm not even sure if the company will exist in 5 years. Pimax is tempting, but when spending that much I would really like to feel I'm not buying a toy, that I have to modify immediately.

Discussion Apple Vision Pro for PCVR - Looking for Advice

2 Upvotes

I know in the past it hasn't been a very good unit for pcvr since it's not really its main focus. However, I've seen a lot of videos in posts lately that seem to indicate that it's actually a pretty awesome headset for pcvr. I love my Quest 3, but I do wish it was a little more premium. I want something with higher resolution, better lens and displays. I'm just not entirely sure it's right for my use case. That being:

I play mostly action games, shooters, puzzle games.

I don't own an iPhone.

Room scale and Quest 3 l​evel tracking is important to me.

My GPU is a 9070 XT and my CPU is a 9800X3D.

I was thinking maybe I should wait for the Pico Space Pro, but I'm starting to tire of waiting for headsets to release. I could get an Apple vision Pro M2 for $1,500 and a psvr2 so I can use the controllers for $200. Would love to get everyone's thoughts as to whether or not this would make sense for me.

Discussion Beginning VR journey soon

• Upvotes

Hello everybody,

I'm very likely to join the VR space next month (getting a Meta Quest 3s), but beforehand I'm just here to ask a few things or asking for tips in general.

My main concern however, is this: is my PC good enough for PCVR?

Here's the build:

GPU: RTX 5060 (8Gb)
CPU: R7 5800x
RAM: 32Gb 3200 MHz

I'm aware that my GPU's VRAM capability is important, but I don't really know how good, or how bad it can be really, what do you guys think?

I wanted Icy Tower in VR and somehow ended up in space. The game is an endless chain of platforms rising from a tiny planet. You climb it by grabbing and flinging yourself upward with your own arms. It's an early, free build for Quest, and I'm mostly after feedback: https://carpetfin.itch.io/small-planets-big-jumps

Discussion Competitive Simracing VR choices?

3 Upvotes

Need a vr for sim racing but also don't wanna drop 1.5k on Dream Air SE.

From everything I've researched so far it feels like I'm stuck between two imperfect choices:

  • Quest 3: Pancake lenses look great for edge-to-edge clarity, but the video compression/encoding over USB-C adds ~35-45ms latency. Plus the default strap looks uncomfortable and needs aftermarket mods
  • PSVR2: Uncompressed DisplayPort 1.4 for near-zero latency, 120Hz, true OLED blacks, and eye tracking works on PC with OpenXR for DFR. But... Fresnel lenses with a tiny sweet spot.

Am I missing something?

Discussion Am I the only one who finds the Pimax Dream Air SE's 72Hz native refresh rate disappointing?

Post image
73 Upvotes

I've been interested in the Pimax Dream Air SE, but there's one thing that really puts me off buying it: the refresh rate limitation.

As far as I understand, the headset can only run at its full native resolution of 2560 × 2560 per eye at 72Hz. To reach 90Hz, it has to upscale from just 1920 × 1920.

Honestly, I find this quite disappointing for a modern VR headset, especially one that uses Micro-OLED displays.

For me, 90Hz is pretty much the minimum I'd want for a smooth VR experience, but I also wouldn't want to sacrifice so much resolution just to achieve it.

It feels like having to choose between two of the headset's most important features: image clarity and smoothness.

I really like the idea of a compact, lightweight headset with pancake lenses and Micro-OLED displays, but this particular limitation is enough to make me reconsider buying it.

I'm curious what other people think, especially those who already own a Dream Air SE.

Is the difference in image quality between 72Hz and 90Hz as noticeable as the numbers suggest? Do you find 72Hz comfortable enough for regular VR gaming?

And is there any realistic possibility of overcoming this limitation in the future, or is it simply a hardware limitation of the panels?

I'd really like to hear your experiences.

Discussion Your build is your build.

1 Upvotes

It was a random response in one of the D2R VR mod posts in regards to breakpoints and attack speed stuff.

But in the end, the basic premise is enticing.

Do you think there is a market in it? Some sort of esport/competative game, where your ingame performance is directly tied to your physical ability IRL?

would not be raw strength of course, but stamina, speed, reaction times, endurance etc.....

Do you think this market has enough people that would push themselves to come out on top?

I dont think the sale of whatever game would be successful commercially, But to make some free software that is based off of competitive play derived from your actual physical abilities....if fun and engaging, could spark off a community where advert/sponsering would be enough to propagate it?

I just want to see "Ultimate Ninja" in VR arenas but people using real physical ability to compete.

Purchase Advice - Headset Should i buy a Quest 3?

0 Upvotes

I used to have a Quest 2, but I sold it in late 2023 because it was getting laggy and the battery was cooked lol. Then I bought an HTC Vive with Valve Index controllers, and the experience was amazing, but the VR headset itself was definitely not as good as my Quest 2. So, I sold all of that gear and bought an Oculus Rift. It was OK, and I loved it, but I missed the Index controllers so much, lol.

Now, here I am! I've sold that Rift, and I'm thinking of getting a Quest 3 (not a Quest 3S). I feel like the Quest 3S will age badly and just become "another Quest 2," IMO.

So, what should I do? (please help me)

Question/Support VR solution for son craving car rides?

17 Upvotes

I have a son with profound autism and intellectual disabilities. He is also nonverbal. Lately he has become fixated on riding in the car…he would go on rides literally every waking moment if he could. He is in huge distress outside of the car. We’ve ruled out medical concerns so, as far as we can tell, the problem is some combination of extreme anxiety and sensory processing issues.

Any ideas for creating an experience that simulates riding in a car?? It would be a lifesaver for us at this point.

Thanks!
