Really enjoyed seeing this one come together. @BrinkXR Traveler’s Iceland Riverbed is a great fit for @VRDesktop, and there’s more going on behind the scenes than you might expect. Hope we see more collaborations like this.

Just added 144 fps support with Quest 3 in Virtual Desktop on our Beta channel. Go try it out and let us know what you think!
Big update today! The BRINK Traveler folks brought over a very cool environment from their app: Iceland Riverbed! We also have lots of performance improvements and bug fixes. Enjoy!

Doom 2016 with 6DoF gun proof of concept. ~12h of work. Rendering was a bitch to get done but no AFW 🌵 This was fun!
Nothing can stop us from playing Doom in VR.

Virtual Desktop (already a must own for PCVR users) just dropped a Quest Beta with wired USB, massive performance gains and incredible news for those looking for a solid pcvr experience. I tested it with G-Rebels which was practically unplayable until today👉 youtu.be/4ci1JxwuuKY?is=YH8G…

JUST IN: Meta’s CTO says morale is near “the worst it’s ever been” — leadership will offer increased snack budgets to lift spirits.

Talking with Guy Godin about more than a decade of @VRDesktop goodvirtualreality.com/p/guy…
Almost a year later and that bug is still there, not to mention the FPS degradation after 30min of play and random broken things with Meta’s A/B tests. What a disaster.
Still not fixed in latest v2.1 OS and on top of that, the Horizon portal sometimes pops in your face preventing you from interacting with anything else.
State of the Quest ecosystem: Horizon home is stuck loading forever with CPU cranked to 8. By the time you launch your app, the headset can't keep the cpu at level 8 so loading is sluggish and the SoC is at high temperature. It's been like this for 8 months...

Virtual Desktop is hands down the most powerful and reliable wireless PCVR streaming software out there. Install, understand and balance all your settings perfectly every time. Full tutorial up now:

VR Developers, don’t use the Meta XR SDK to develop your games. Whether you use Unity or Unreal, you should use the built-in OpenXR support in the engines. The Meta XR SDK only works with Quest & Link; it is a buggy mess hardcoded to not work with other runtimes and headsets.

Hey @boztank, if you would like to hire an expensive (these bugs are what my nightmares are made of) contractor to come in and fix stuff, just say the word.
Hey @boztank, your quality control failed again. v77 went out with game breaking bugs that affect everyone. Audio crackling (reported weeks ago), audio cutting out when you switch to passthrough, VP8 video no longer working, MediaCodec freezes, etc.
Good job ignoring all the reports during PTC and pushing your update anyway..
