Didn't expect to see one of my videos cited lol
We asked HTC if they were discontinuing the Steam VR Base Stations and this is what they said:
"If there is a plan to discontinue Steam VR Base Stations, we will ensure everyone is informed. However it is unlikely to happen at this time."

AI's a rampant plague that @VRChat refuses to address. VRC promotes AI worlds & uses AI images. Until something changes, I'm stopping my efforts in VRChat translations, VRChat Wiki maintenance and Community Testers, as well as spending money on the platform. Join group NOAI.3843.

HUGE VRChat Face Tracking Update:
- It's coming natively as part of the Avatar Descriptor using Unified Expression Blendshapes
- Can have multiple meshes be affected by FT
- Viseme Dampening function so that FT and visemse work together more seamlessly

It seems that HTC is working on Vive Ultimate support for linux
Very much seems to be aimed at robotics use cases, but I doubt there's anything stopping someone from utilizing the data for VR instead...
Although VUTs aren't that great for VR so...
This is full body tracking without wearing trackers
I do have #soulartstation units, but my full video isn't gonna be uploaded until like mid-october so this is a brief collection of some of my thoughts before their kickstarter goes live
Basically if I want the best tracking quality possible I'm still going to put on FluxPose
Soulart is so convenient though that I've started using full body tracking in situations I wouldn't have otherwise bothered to
That's unfortunate lol. It would have been cool to have around, but I don't think I care enough to sit on a waitlist for it

You can already visit the Paper_Tracker store and add your preferred kit, headset version, and accessories to your cart in advance.
If you need prescription lenses for nearsightedness or astigmatism, we also recommend submitting your prescription details ahead of time. Once reviewed, you can add your custom lenses to the cart together with your Paper_Tracker setup.
That way, once pre-orders go live, you can proceed to checkout more quickly without having to configure everything at the last minute.
This second Early Bird batch will include the updated hardware and PowerHub 2.0, with all orders scheduled to ship together in December.
Get your cart ready — see you on September 19!
Okay so when are third party accessories for the frame dropping because 60 bucks for what's in that comfort pack somehow makes the Vive XR Elite's deluxe pack look like a good deal
I personally would hold off on buying a Babble for the Frame. Someone from Babble said they have something to show this week and I wouldn't be surprised if it is a newer tracker for the Frame. Could be like a converter or something too though, no clue. Regardless I'd just wait
I'm tempted to get a steam frame with the passthrough module just to use it for gaussian splatting LOL
