A few notes!!
- XSOverlay is great, but its performance stats are inaccurate, especially CPU stats. This is due to a change in Windows APIs that I don't think Xiexe has accounted for yet. Unsure if OVRDrop has fixed this. On the other hand, FPSVR is _exceptionally_ accurate. It's great for seeing if you're CPU bound or GPU bound in a quick glance.
- Our "jitter smoothing" is actually an unintended benefit from networked IK. It gets lerped out! It's very trivial but OVR Smooth Tracking _technically_ will reduce the quality of your tracking for remote users, but probably not by enough to matter.
- TurnSignal is great, but both FPSVR and OVRAS include these features too! TurnSignal has a few more features and customizations though.
- The true glasses hack is to swap to contacts just for VR. It only took me like 3 months to learn how to do contacts properly! woo!!!!
Incredibly additive comment, thanks Tupper! ✨
So, it's not fixed in OVR Toolkit yet, but you're correct it's related to a Windows API change! Technically, the 'wrong' value is actually accurate, it's just measuring differently. (Look up what actually changed, it's a weird problem they tried to fix related to hyperthreading if I recall)
I've been speaking with the fpsVR dev and they've been assisting me in fixing the issue, it's just very low priority as OVR Toolkit has integration for fpsVR so I usually recommend people use that for more advanced performance stats. No point in my re-inventing the wheel when fpsVR is already the god-tier solution and so cheap, I'd rather support them. :)
Was gonna say the same thing about the tangled thing. OVRas has it too, I have found that sometimes it does get confused and you have to zero the rotations though. Then again it's been a second since I hopped on VR maybe they fixed it.
Fpsvr also has cable untangling. It's my go-to for untangling, performance stats, and such.
wdym true glasses hack
Thanks for the shoutout PHIA!
It means so much to me that people actually use OVR Toolkit, nevermind them seeing it as a 'must have'!
I'll keep up the work on ensuring bugs are ironed out. :)
You’re a hero for the community!
I literally bought it for my boyfriend because I said he needed it 😂
Not here to start something but I did abandon it for XSoverlay, due to the seemingly high performance impact and many bugs when using it
Dude, OVR Toolkit is night and day for VR, especially with full body tracking. Thanks for making it!
@@Hunter248GM This was the case back in the day, but today OVR Toolkit is just as stable and performant as similar software. :)
There's just a lot of bad vibes from ex-users who remember how it used to be, OVR Toolkit was a mess in the past and it's something I'll never try to deny. It improved a lot within 2022 and 2023.
OVR Advanced settings has a compas you can place on the ground in the center of your playspace, creating a visual that is always there instead of rug + fan. I still encourage the fan those, VR is hot.
The rug gives a *tactile* indicator of where you are, so it doesn't rely on sight, like a visual compass would.
This different sensory input is helpful when your sight is already occupied by something else, for example aiming down-sights in a FPS.
@@Adam-zt4cn the compass has to render over the game.
@@Creator-- I think the point was the player is looking around at the game and might not be thinking to look down all the time. tactile queues would come as a reminder without the player having to remember to do something
Lucky for me, I never not have a fan on in my room. I cannot stand silence and need the motor sound.
play-space drag is SO useful in and for almost EVERY VR Application and Game! 🌟
i have a tip similar to the rug and fan trick incase u don't have either of those, in steam vr and oculus theres a feature to always show a outline of your play space on the ground. something i do is i make my play space have a indicator of where is forward (like a divit or a notch in the outline of the space if that makes sense) and just use that. its not to intrusive and u tend to just rely on it like second nature. on oculus theres also the "glance" option so that it will only show the overlay if you look down at it. just thought this could be helpful, happy playin!
I've done someithign very similiar, whenever i get close to my play space "border", it shows up and i can tell from the shape of it, where i am and what way i am facing. i simple have to get one fo my controllers close to it, and it shows up. Really useful!
It took me like a year to discover all of these programs and tips on my own, thanks for condensing them into one place, especially Labs! I'm gonna be checking out those worlds and vetting them.
This is a fantastic compilation for someone new to VR
that’s a lot of gadgets for sitting by a mirror all day
For people using SteamVR, another way to keep urself oriented in your room is to give ur play splace border a recognizable shape
I have a small desk in the corner of the room, and it's great because I account for that when making the play space so there's always a corner that has little square taken out of it! Could also be good to have like a little fan or something in the corner instead and use that!
ive honestly never thought about this but you could litteraly just put a traiangle to show which way you should be facing, smart idea
Playspace Drag is a HUGE accessibility tool. I'm really happy to learn of it as I would need to be seated when using VR.
Honestly- bless you Phia!! You're a lifesaver so far for learning about the ins and outs of VR!
I AM OVRTOOLKIT STAN, I HAVE 20,000 HOURS IN IT
Literally same
I myself was looking for a program that does voices. Definitely gonna need that link. Thanks again, Phia. You're the best.
hey just wanted to say, this channel got me into vrchat almost a year ago and i slowly evolved from pc, to rift s, to index, to fbt. this world is perfect and it has helped me so much socially.
i have already discovered all the tips you showed in this video before tho lol. but great video either way.
Been using Voicemod for the past 4 years! I love it
I've been using Standable this past week and it's genuinely really cool! It does have some issues for me personally (at least for the avatar I commonly use) where sitting and laying down are still pretty awkward and don't look right, but when it comes to standing, leaning, and turning, the movement is way more natural looking compared to VRChat's default stiff movement for half body users
It's still in development, but I'd say it's worth the $20 if you can't afford actual trackers yet
Awesome video once again, Phia! Really helped me realise a few things here and there, so cheers!! 💙💙
Another way to keep yourself oriented in vr is to simply always have your floor chaperone lines on at all times and have a play space that has a unique shape (like one corner is slightly indented from the others. This has by far been the best help personally to keep me pointing the right way.
Another banger from Phia. She just don’t MISS
This is really helpful phia. I just got an index too so you couldnt have had better timing in my eyes.
1:48 I've been jamming to these mixes for the past few days! Hell yeah, great music taste!
Great vid! I've been a frequent VR user for years and still learned from this vid!
I hope one day we will get body tracking included with the basic headset. They can track full body using base stations.
Another amazing vid- tysm phia!!
This is the first thing I am going to send to any of my friends that are starting to get into PC VR; it will save me a ton of time explaining what these tools are and their benefits!! 🥳
6:45 My room already has a ceiling fan and I also use a rug for playing VR. They’re both great at keeping me in check of my playing space.
When I had vr I prided myself on having every tool I needed. It’s been so long I’ve forgotten everything. Glad this exists
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Two more paychecks and I'll finally be in the reality of this show. I'm definitely a fan never clicked on a video so fast you're doing RN Jesus work!!
This is really helpful! Thanks. Kinda reminds me about how little features valve have added to SteamVR over the years.
Another must-have in VRChat is friends :D
Is there a modpack for that?
I just always do what I enjoy doing. Eventually you meet people that enjoy the same stuff
Yes, but it requires that you already have the social_competence, EmotionalUnderstanding_v5.7 and TalkingSkillzTM addons preinstalled.
help
$19.99 monthly friend subscription add-on purchased separately!
@@Adam-zt4cn if you enjoy world hopping, I'd love to meet up 😀 doesn't require lots of talking. Sometimes I just worldhop on my own.
Thanks for the vid! ^_^ I have lots of these already, but I'll send it to my friends who are new to VRC!
Its been a while since i saw your vids and OMG YOUR MODEL IS SO GOOD
Even as a non VRChat player, majority of the "must-haves" listed here are very helpful. Thanks!
thx for the info
first time seeing your new avatar - huge upgrade!
That was a fun video, so many great programs and life-hacks to have, i will definitely use some of these in the future. THANK YOU!
The green screen end card with the new avatar looks so slick!
I can't wait to be able to try prescription lens. Having the headset with glasses is one of the reasons as to why I haven't played my vr headset recently.
Yep, they are great. You just get that temporary feeling, when reality is more blurry than virtual world.
Love the new model!
This was cool and very helpful
Thanks a bunch for the video, Standable sounds pretty amazing
Perscription lens are definitely a livesaver not only for comfort but so I don't put my glasses as risk when I'm being a goofball in VR. Thoughhhh having one lens shaped even slightly wrong causes me to have to keep it glued onto my headset or it would fall out whenever I looked straight up
One of these days I'm just gonna abandon lens altogether and get some laser eye done but until then.... I suffer
I just pay for expensive throw away contact lenses for this reason.
because my prescription changes so much buying lenses is not worth the cost for me
@@MonstehDinosawr I wanted contact lenses, but my astigmatism is so bad that I just have to buy prescription lenses unfortunately. @xeethevirtualexplorer8119 could get those that comes with magnets like mine, though mine is a random no brand one that actually does them for super cheap.
I've definitely broken frames wearing them under my HMD. Now I have lenses from VR Optician and they're great, highly recommend
AMAZING video was really helpful
I’m finally playing vr on pc but I never really figured out how other pc players can hover in the air and all of that, but now I know. Thanks and great work on the vid!
You should definitely do a setup tour. & that view is crazy good with the windows
Awesome video! Such great information, thank you for this
for the mat trick, im using the twisting disc thing that is used for waist exercise, also great for other shooter game like pavlov where i have to turn around constantly, while keeping myself in the same spot
Fan and mat trick are so helpful, I use my mat all the time and if you get one that is cushioned it will help with standing fatigue I find.
This is so helpful! Thank you!
I actually just recent learned the whole rug+fan thing is really effective recently, and on accident too! lol
Omg thank you the fpsvr helps a lot I didn’t know they had all of this!
Good list of 3rd party software to enhance my VR experience. Thanks!
For the true enjoyers. Great video.
Thank you very much for the video and the useful tips! I'm using some of this stuff too. Especially the Smooth Tracking is a must have for my taste!
So often I had the situation when I "aimed" at something, my arm was shaking and every tiny bit was seen in the virtual controller movement. I wished for a kind of smoothing for it. A couple of months ago someone told me about the smooth tracking and a kind of dream came true for me.
Thanks a lot for this video! Gonna use this as a reference after I got a vr headset!~
Thanks for these recommendations!
Hey Phia thanks for teaching me everything. I ordered slime last month now I'm just patiently waiting for them to get to croudsupply. I think I'll end up being in the second half of batch cuz I ordered so recently but I'm really excited. You and thrill are like our vr professors and this is alot of people favorite class
Lovely, just what I was looking for
OVR Advanced Settings already has a feature like Turn Signal ;)
As a beginner user, this is great. Thanks so much.
This is awesome thank u-
I love the model and lip syncing and the video is very educational ☺️👌 nice job
OMG I haven't seen your content for a while but love the new model!
Saving this video. I've had VR before, don't have it now (long story). Most of these I didn't know about
Thank you Phia! ✨🌸
god bless you darling, just got my quest yesterday
Love your new model ❤
Whoa those are some cool things to add!
stops watching this channel for months comes back to a thousand times better looking avatar than i last saw and the content feels better somehow? glad i clicked
This is an amazing video!
Thank you for the standable recommendation! I dont have money for trackers right now and this is a great substitute!
Thanks that is very helpful I always wondered how people fly with their hands
Good video👍
Nice video and informative!
The fan and mat trick has been such a lifesaver
awesome thanks - OVR Advanced and Standable body tracker are both now in my steam library - their so good and handy to have
This is a really good informative video. I actually already have most of these except the OVR smooth tracking. I might actually need to give that a try as I do sometimes record VRChat gameplay and it does look pretty shaky. Thx for the hard work :D
Very good editing ad well :)
Love the avatar. She’s adorable. Great work!
OVR Toolkit is so great, can confirm!
new avatar since I last watched! it looks so good!
Thank you for this video
I had absolutely no idea that there was a way to make fbt smooth. my friend on VRChat was doing summer salts, hitting the cleanest dance moves, with the same setup as mine. and I was over on the side just watching in awe bc every time I jumped more than half a foot my trackers jiggled. Now I know how they did it.
You have all the new tech I want so bad 😍🤣
awesome suggestions!
I have most of these but just found out about TurnSignal! Good stuff and love your avatar! Cheers!
Yo! Your new main avi looks really good!
Good video, using like half of those and they really are essentials :) I'm sure someone has already mention this in the comments already - if you don't want tons of different apps, the OVR advanced setting also has a counter that you can put on the ground to set the middle of your play space as well as count how many times you turned to which way for easier untangling .. really helpful for dancers that wanna spin around ;)
this new avatar go CRAZY THO
Great Video Phia
gonna be using fbe !! excited to see how it works out :)
New video from Phia! 🥰
I learned about OVR and playspace dragging through this video. At last, I know how other people are able to adjust their avatar's height with their hands, and I can do it myself as long as I launch VRC through Steam VR.
Great info and love the new Avatar. 😎
i'm new to vr and this helps sop much, i am at the moment on day 4 of even owning a VR headset so these things help as i wihtout the community would not figure it out
Im planning on getting myself a quest 2 and get into VR cause I have seen a lot of it recently, and Im currently saving up for it! But OMG your videos are very helpful since I didnt really knew much about the inside world of VR and I have watched a bunch of your vids cause they're so helpful.
(Sorry if my english isnt very understandable or right but Im trying my best lol)
just bought my first oculus (meta quest 2) and this is gonna help so much
ovr smooth tracking, made pcvr feel so much better
I like the rug trick better than fan cause when I played Phasmophobia, that fan scared the crap out of me several times. Also made that log cabin map spooky as hell.
Really like the new avatar and pfp, it looks really good
I saw you at the Vket/Eden event on Friday. That was an amazing event
I really like the new avatar! It looks great!
I do not recommend using joy cons for any bodypart. I use them myself and they are the most glitched thing ever when it comes to turning around or quick movement.
