No Audio through steam link on quest 3

Reply in thread

Steam link for steam vr (to my knowledge) isn't an app like the mobile version, more of a way for steam vr to recognize the headset. So any settings would be the remote settings and vr setting on my computer. Also I don't know if you can see the images, but steam vr specifically says the streaming speakers are disabled, while clicking into that sound control panel says they aren't (I think?)

Tho I did decide to boot up steam link on my phone, audio works IF I set it to play out of my headphones (switching to the steam speakers would cause it to mute) so now I'm even more confused... yay

[Frame] The recommendation for a top headstrap

Reply in thread

Yeah most VR controllers have the default wrist strap. I currently have a silicon wrap with wrist straps for my quest and while their nice it's definitely not a necessity. I'm hoping the top strap isn't needed cus I've heard some people say its light enough to use without it, and others say it's usable without but they much prefer it.

Steam Controller and Puck CAD files now available!

Personally I don’t think it’s mixed

As someone who (outside of basic game modding) hates to tinker out of fear of breaking something, that second part is aimed at people like me.

In other words I read this is “Hey FlipFlop, you could make all these changes, but let’s leave that to your buddies who actually know electronics and hardware so you don’t end up with $100 steam brand paperweight “

Edit: check out the page and that’s pretty much what was said right after “Any damage you do will not be covered by your warranty” “You might break your controller”

Heartbroken. I had a copy of Wolverine in my car and someone broke in and left five more

Well that’s what I thought too, surely it can’t be that bad? In short imagine if yellow paint ate Navi

So it’s a linear game, and from the brief 5 min review I saw (didn’t even know there was a Wolverine game until all this discourse) it is a linear game, like REALLY linear, like the first level has one entrance and exit.

There is a constant blue line to show the player where to go like a gps line, and Wolverine always talks to him self.

Theres also now a purple line at the end of the level to a doorway (challenge room) and this too needs a gps path despite being very obvious if you look to the left. The first challenge was a traversal challenge, and because the game has like 0 traversal mechanics aside from “wall climb on yellow paint” so they got the fastest time first try

And there was a “hidden” chest with 3 different cues, a constant hum, a quick sonar ping, and a visual pulse so big you could EASILY see it upon exiting the challenge room over all geometry

And even novice necromancers can only raise a body once according to the rules I’ve made up just now

And more expirence necromancers can raise bodies more times, but eventually they’ll get discouraged

Until it affects me

Yeah one time I accidentally commented in one of the women’s space community, as I thought it was only a meme aimed at women. The mod both recognized it was an honest mistake, and noted it actually added the conversation so they kept it up but said something along the lines of “thank you this is great but this is also a women’s only space, please don’t do it again” and they were very respectful about it. So I just lurked in that comments section as to respect the rules

Point is I too would probably be upset if my community was overran with “as a man”. What’s that one comic strip with the guy always going oh no, basically in the one I’m thinking of, they carve out their own niche, but then the majority comes in and kicks them out

Like is my heart in the right place, yes I think so, but would it lead to a situation like that, also yes

But I don’t see the point of people throwing a fit. Like go a general community like one of the Asks and throw it there. Like I fundamentally don’t understand people going “waaah I can’t be a part of something I didn’t want to be in”

It reminds me of one of my friends upset he wasn’t invited to one of our line gaming get together, despite the fact they hate the game

Safety first

Reply in thread

My grandpa who takes me shooting was going over the firearm safety rules and with rule two I was like “that seems extreme” and his response it’s supposed to be, a gun killing or injuring or damaging isn’t as vivid as the word destroy

And yeah for me the other rules kinda seemed a given, bullets move fast and possibly through our hanging rubber targets, the gun probably can’t fire if you don’t give it a squeeze, and as for loaded better safe than sorry.

These rules seemed almost obvious to me, and yet there’s all these guys at the range behaving like absolute idiots

What is the impact of Corvettes?

Personally I like them because big ship. Like you said being able to scan them hover and beam down. You can also get some crazy distance with skydiving. One of my friends said “I love the corvette but launch fuel is expensive” (as he mostly does sentinel ships with a massive stack of radiant shards). And I told him you can just not land

Personally my only complaintss are pirate and abandoned stations are missing the teleporters like the space stations and anomaly has
A corvette specific landing pad
