Vegasguy Posted November 5, 2024 Posted November 5, 2024 I know that 3dxchat has support for VR. Thank you Gizmo for implementing it. The thing is, you need 4 hands to use it. Say for example you get the oculus controllers binded which is a nightmare in itself, then how do you type, with the controller, pointing at a keyboard? I have a much cleaner solution. You already have the headset working great. Now bind both controllers, but heres where the typing problem is solved. I know you have been in I think they call it big room or big theatre or something on meta. Well when you enter the room, you have your avatar, and when you want to talk, you press one of the buttons! Also the Meta/Oculus can detect were your arms are placed, maybe add that, its already in the hardware. What are your thoughts? Vegas erosmost 1
TonyFrx Posted November 5, 2024 Posted November 5, 2024 Hello, I use VR with a Meta Quest3. I don't use the controllers but the mouse to move and orient the camera as in normal mode. I exit first person mode by pressing F6. For the chat, I double tap on the headset to be in camera mode so that I can see my keyboard. The UI often interferes with the view, to move it just place the pointer where you want it to be and press the space bar. This is how I use VR mode, I hope this will help you while waiting for an improvement in VR mode. erosmost 1
Laura P Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Hi .. I figured that out too ..but my problem is .. whenever I´m in VR mode .. I can post text (the other playes see it) but I don´t see any reactions . in no chat window .. not in World, not in Local or on IM .. any ideas what I´m doing wrong ? I love the VR view ... but 3dxchat WITHOUT Chat .. isn´t really the same
socaldood Posted January 31 Posted January 31 (edited) I'm having the same issue on the Quest 3s. I can't see anything that's typed into the chat. One time, it was like I was peering through the chat window into a room behind it where the text was written on the wall. I'm assuming there's a rendering issue of some sort. Does anyone have a fix for this? Edit: I should also note that when I turn VR mode off, the messages still do not appear in the chat window. Edited January 31 by socaldood
Laura P Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Yes, socaldood is right .. it´s also not in the non-VR chatbox as long as you don´t retype it in non-vr chat
TonyFrx Posted February 1 Posted February 1 I have the same problem, local chat seems to work but world is mute and there is a countdown timer instead of the send button. It seems like there is something broken since the last update.
Laura P Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Update .. for me it "works" now ... when I choose the chat i wna to post in in 2D world and change THEN to VR .. currently it works for me. Try again ... the grafic is worth the inconvinience from my point of view ... (maybe tell your partner that you need E X T R A time to type )
