nishio: how you feel when you get a heavy box and are excited to open it and this is what you get pic.twitter.com/CNwF1TzTJG nishio: the real ones were here too! pic.twitter.com/AW0HGzfnep nishio: I put BeatSaber, VRChat and Immersed for now, couldnā€™t find Horizon workrooms. Where is it? Well, maybe later.

nishio: I tried to buy the BTS music pack after playing once with BeatSaber for now, but it just went into standby and didnā€™t go any further.

I did the tutorial. I grabbed the blocks that touched my hands and threw them and stacked them and felt like ā€œthis is totally baby behaviorā€. Now with VR, I canā€™t put them in my mouth.

nishio: I was able to get Immerse to display my Macbook screen, but I had trouble understanding the verbal instructions on how to bring up the Immerse menu. I had a hard time understanding how to bring up the Immerse menu.

nishio: So, around here I was told to charge my headset, so I took a break. The other interesting part was the ability to set up a virtual wall so that you can walk around the house and not have any accidents. The wall just appears and you understand your position in the room, so you can sit in front of the PC outside the wall and then remove your goggles, smooth!

  • nishio: Itā€™s a very fine trick that when you stick your head out of the wall, you can see the faded real world with the texture of a low-resolution black-and-white TV. I feel a malice toward the old man who can only live in the old world.

    • Maybe this is just a thermal imaging cameraā€¦the infrared is blinking and dazzling with Hello face recognition from a Windows PC.
  • nishio: I was talking about surrounding a space of about 2 meters square with a virtual wall, but the great thing is that there is a ā€œhot carpetā€ of about the same size. I just had to designate it as my play area.

nishio: Vivecraft for Mobile VR ā€“ Vivecraft ā€“ VR Minecraft for SteamVR

nishio: couldnā€™t buy the BTS Music Pack inside Oculus, but I could easily buy it from my phone.

nishio: I was able to get the Twitter screen in Immersed, but when I try to type with the keyboard, I get the ā€œreport problem to Googleā€ dialog, Is GoogleIME dying instantly? I was able to open Scrapbox but I canā€™t get into edit mode properly, and the Enter key opens a new page. Whiteboard canā€™t write on it because the lines tremble, difficult to write on. image nishio: you could take a screenshot and share it on Facebook, this is a feature of OculusQuest2 itself.

  • Calibration is also very simple, ā€œpress and hold P, Q, and B.ā€ It is very well done in the sense that it does not require any type of PC or OS.

  • nishio: test test test ok ok I can use the keyboard on the other side of the PC.

    • Keys rewritten by Karabiner show the rewritten key, not the pressed key.

nishio: Zoom Meeting from VR image

  • nishio: I thought if I put the WebCam behind me, you could see the view Iā€™m seeing, but the screen didnā€™t show up.

nishio: it was a waste of time not to beat saver with proper meta-awareness. At first I could only see the notes, then I could see the combo multiplier on the right, then I could see the combo count on the left, then I could see that the scores were flying off the notes, then I noticed the life in front of me.

  • nishio: I played Easy all the way through and it was B and C, so I studied beat savers. Score 100 degrees of swing, no timing judgment, no penalty for moving too fast in a hurry, hard to notice, but the angle of the hit is narrower, so the miss rate increases, no trigger operation, so you have more freedom in how you hold the trigger.

nishio: installing workrooms while putting Oculus Link on PC

Iā€™m going to leave it and go get Pikmin in front of the station, Oculus came and did that all afternoon today, so Iā€™m not getting enough exerciseā€¦what, Iā€™m supposed to be taking 10,000 steps? Ha, BeatSaberā€™s arm swing is being judged as walking?

  • nishio: I played BTS IDOL after planting new seedlings to try it out and it counted 880 steps. I guess Iā€™ll have to grow seedlings all over!

  • nishio: I got an A in Normal for MIC Drop, IDOL and Blood Sweat & Tears. I learned that you can slow down the speed in practice mode, so I thought that if I slowed down the speed in Japanese bilboquet (cup-and-ball game), I could improve faster than in normal practice, and that this should be a physical manipulation skill as well, and after one or two practices at 50%, I improved very quickly.

  • nishio: still misses even at 50% speed. Also, chunks between multiple notes are starting to form, especially the clear movement connecting from the bottom to the outside.

Vivecraft Explaining the VR adaptation of Minecraft: amazingly immersive with the introduction of shadow mods! []](https://blog.endstart.net/article/vivecraft.html) Playing Minecraft with Oculus Quest 2 - Kotobanoutakata

Error message on black screen after Minecraft starts up. To be activated from the oculus screen. If SteamVR is up, exit it and try again.

  • I donā€™t understand why, but it looks like SteamVR needs to operate the activation from the Oculus side.

Opening the desktop in OculusLink is black.

Todayā€™s Summary

  • I launched SteamVR via OculusLink and launched Vivecraft with the connection status indicator showing ā†’ I was able to get an immersive menu screen, I launched Micra on the VR space!
  • Itā€™s a wireless connection, so itā€™s choppy due to lack of bandwidth and I canā€™t figure out how to start the game, one break until the cable arrives.

Shockingly, he was playing Micra on a machine with a GeForceGTX1070, but he had never used it before. w When I explicitly specified that he should use it, he said that OpenGL is not supported by the current driver and Micra would not start. image

  • Install the driver
  • Motion.

      • Itā€™s back unexpectedly while Iā€™m trying to fix the settings, and isnā€™t the display too small? Have they changed the settings for that too?

      • At least I got the job of writing my name on the presentation materials, itā€™s still a little hard to do it all. But, well, the ā€œfuture of working within VR spaceā€ is much closer now that keyboards and pointing devices are a reality. Itā€™s not an essential difference if the monitor is physically present or not.
      • I actually had a mug on my desk, and when I tried to drink tea, it hit my goggles and I couldnā€™t drink it, so I put a straw on it, but I hope I can bring that into the VR space like my keyboard.
    • The monitor is bigger, but the keyboard is gone again.

      • In terms of monitor resolution, well, itā€™s enough to write a program.

Quest 2 - Bluetooth pairing with AirPods Pro - flawless in Prime Video : OculusQuest How to use Bluetooth earphones with Oculus Quest 2 | Lonely Mobiler

The audio is indeed audible, but since it is via Bluetooth, there is some lag. This lag was especially severe when playing games. Also, I sometimes felt some heaviness in the game, probably due to the Bluetooth earphones connected. Wired if you want to play BeatSaber

You could put a sofa or a desk.
