>What is VRChat? Right now it is on of the most popular VR applications around the market , it is free and even includes a desktop version althought you are limited ( since it was designed around VR ) , you get to hand out with a lot of people and their avatars , in short , a cool thing to spend your evenings talking with people and doing fun stuff.
>Why the fuck would I play that? Because you can be any avatar you can import and upload. Including being the cute anime girl/guy, or a character from a game, or literally anything you can model and rig up , plus add even more people to it and think about all the awesome stuff you can do , do remember to get a VR set to enjoy it fully.
>I don't want to be the anime girl You can also make pretty much any level you can think of. Examples include: the fucking moon, ripped .hack worlds, trippy hangouts, expensive penthouse pools, clubs, MMD dance stages, etc , even a military kinda setting if you are up to it.
>Do I need a VR headset? No, you can play on desktop. But, obviously, the full experience is had with a Vive/Rift/whatever. Anything that works with SteamVR/OpenVR will work fine.
You can also join the VRChat discord at /DwHCC2f , wait some time and you can ente rthe section of "tutorials" , a lot of guys are there to help you get started with everything.
Apparently iris_ai is famous now. People keep coming up to her in-game and saying "its the little girl from YouTube!"
Brandon Jones
Well she is a cutie
Noah Thomas
Can I Jerry rig my psvr to work with my PC?
Wyatt Perry
You guys should absolutely figure out something you can post about while the general is still getting off the ground. I'm sure there is a lot of interest here but you gotta post something to keep it afloat.
Chase Reyes
Yep! There's a user named jazneo in the VRChat discord that has done exactly that.
Yeah.. that's definitely on us. Many of us are at work or at school at the moment, so this is kind of a dead time.
I need to start recording as a habit and cut out the good bits for YouTube. The weekend tends to be a lot more active.
Jack Mitchell
VRChat is pretty much headpat simulator if you have an anime avatar, lol
Zachary Scott
Hell we need some sort of "show" or just a group of the most autistis weebs we have to go full podcast mode .
Hunter Thompson
i have already been planning to get a vr for tilt brush, now im definitely getting one. i want to try dipping my toes before i shell out on a proper vr machine though. which one is the cheapest of them all?
Sebastian Butler
You guys should do something worth posting about, don't just dump images (do that if you have to bump though) and don't spend too much time on something big like show or podcast, its a Veeky Forums general after all. Are there really not enough things within the game to ask questions or have a discussion about? You gotta have something.
Daniel Sanders
Gotcha
We have a buyfag guide coming up that I will slap in our pastebin
Grayson Davis
Heaven is a place in VR
Wyatt Perry
I mean... the game is a social application. There's not exactly game mechanics to discuss.
However, there's a lot of discussion about creating content for the game going on. The latest meme in VRChat development for avatars, at least, is reducing draw calls-- it turns out that the game is heavily CPU bound, so reducing CPU calls is super important. One of the biggest enemies right now is Dynamic Bone, a Unity asset that allows non-Mechanim bones to have physics. It destroys CPU. There was some discussion about using Unity's physics joints today, but I dunno how effective that's gonna be.
Cheapest? If you're looking to get into VR, you're looking at a minimum investment of about $1000 for a decent computer to drive the headset, and anywhere between 400-600 for the headset depending on what you order.
James James
Quite fun to think about it , the guys that jumped all on the train were weebs at the start , it does appeal to us a lot so yeah.
Daniel King
>just a group of the most autistis weebs we have to go full podcast mode . funny you mention that
Cooper Wood
?
Jordan Howard
I don't have a vr headset yet but holy shit the content coming out of this game is hilarious. I hope it doesn't turn into a second second-life where everything is a clique. Also needs more giant anime tiddies but I'm sure they'll come in time.
Michael Walker
There's definitely "circles" of friends that you can pick out, but people are pretty welcoming. There's a lot of people in the community familiar with how these sorts of places work out, and are trying to keep people's minds open
Colton Young
Meh if we keep an okay community , but we are weebs , a lot of us do come from their jobs with nowhere to go so they just want to spend time away from everything , but the other normies will probably keep it stable.
Regarding anime tiddies , someone already used jiggle physics on a Mercy Avatar and someone else also did it on their bikini Miku , you just need to be skilled with the tools.
Jose Reed
i have access to PCs which i think are powerful enough to handle some games. i just want to try it out before actually committing into the meme for real. don't we have some nigger rigged vr headset that costs 200 or something?
Jose Barnes
There's definitely some jank-ass setups that people use involving stuff like old DK2s, NoloVR, etc
Jack Martinez
>anons on voice changers having virtual sex i-i can see it..... the future on that note are nsfw model allowed?
Eli Perry
Private room , in Hubs mods will kick you out.
Isaac Wood
I want to start making avatars for this. Where do I start? I've dabbled in Blender before, do I have to simply learn 3D modeling and rigging etc?
Thanks dood, seems like there's a lot of learning ahead
Andrew Perry
But all so you can go and join them! Do it user !
Ethan Bell
You can import NSFW stuff but keep it low-key. Do NOT wear it in public rooms or you'll catch a kick or ban really quick.
The rules are pretty clear and well-enforced for public areas. You can do basically anything you want in private areas, though.
Asher Powell
...
Jace Thomas
holy fuck this is a good one
Gabriel Williams

Ayden Reyes
I swear I have seen that dude so many times
Liam Fisher
nixie's a cool guy. i hear he still plays pokemon go though
Jaxon King
Nah I mean he actually has good taste , I will never get to hold hands with his Avatar , god fucking damn it man .
Saw a video with him somewhere and I swear he does sound like the kind of dude I would love to chat with for hours and hours , I don't know why he just sounds and acts like the most friendly person so far in the videos that I saw that include him.
Logan Morales
Seriously, join in and start talking to people you find interesting. People aren't gonna give you shit or call you out if you just wanna chat. In fact, VR is apparently pretty good therapy for a lot of people with various social anxiety issues.
We're nice, I swear
Christopher Miller
This seems really fucking cool, is it like an Oasis from RPO kind of thing?
Jason Nguyen
That was literally the inspiration for VRChat, I think. Or at least a heavy contributor.
Michael Harris
>want to talk >absolute dogshit at spoken english
Aiden Carter
eh, its ok. We have a lot of users from all over the place, most of who don't have english as their first language.
There's also a huge Japanese community that we english speakers try to communicate with, and they try their best to communicate back. Google Translate is a vital tool, lol
Aaron Hall
That got me intrested, how close can you get to sign language in this game, or set up a literal sign a la Looney Tunes' coyote that will have fucking emoticons or something drawn on it that you can change with a button press.
Chase Garcia
I am in the military user , I know I have some more months infrount of me before I become a translator and get money to buy a VR , but if you see Nixie tell him I said hi.
Dylan Cox
I even used my weekly Internet to speak here , tomorrow I will be back home , hopefully I will be able to one day , just one day .
Jacob Collins
Pretty close. There's a user named Mimi who signs using a modified ASL.
Nicholas Watson
I do think you can get a sign up , just need to make it and write on it. And sign language , maybe , just do it slowly.
Ethan Lopez
At least post pictures of your adventures or something! Page 10!
Blake Butler
God damn it everyone is sleeping or playing the game!
Brody Foster
Yeah one of the issues is that people spend a ton of their time in the game if they enjoy it, and since its VR, you can't exactly tab back to Veeky Forums every few minutes to shitpost
Kayden Taylor
Compat!
Joshua Clark
Remember to kiss the meme girls.
Cooper Reyes
I cant believe no one has posted any videos of anons having an orgy yet
