The sections are still there, the apps and games you see in the sections might have changed since the tutorials you mention were made but no functionality has been taken out in that regard. If you have an apk you want to side load that isn't already featured it supports drag-n-drop to install those.Anyone here using SideQuest? I just installed it for the first time and I'm confused.
Every guide or video I've seen shows that it has sections for Android apps and other stuff. These are obviously based on different versions (although some are quite recent), but the one I have only has 'Apps', 'Games' and 'Mods'.
So I guess I'm using a newer version, but have they really just stripped out that functionality?
That's weird about the audio, been using a DAS mod for months so I can't really speak to if they've lowered the audio output of the speakers or if you're experiencing a bug, does it persist over full shutdown/restarts of the headset?Damn I'm forced to hook up headphones everytime I want to get some serious time with my Quest because its sound system's volume is SO.DAMN.LOW. I swear that it's sounding weaker than it was at the beginning.
I mean, the first 4 or 5 ||||| steps are equal to a 0 setting, totally silent when in system's settings (it should beep at every | step). That can't be normal...
That looks great, thanks!

I have Games, Apps, Mods, then a 3rd party section, under which there is VR Games, VR Apps, Android Games, Android Apps and NSFW. I'm on version 0.6.4.I only have 'games', 'apps' and 'mods' sections. Do you have more?
Weird.I have Games, Apps, Mods, then a 3rd party section, under which there is VR Games, VR Apps, Android Games, Android Apps and NSFW. I'm on version 0.6.4.
Edit: Just updated to 0.6.6 and seeing the same options.
Weird.
I just checked it and only had the three I mentioned. Then it prompted me to update, which I declined because I wanted to check the version but that kicked me out of the app.
Tried again, same deal.
Accepted the update, and now it has an NSFW section.
There is still no third party section.
Edit: Did you manually add repos or anthing to get those to show up?
Aah, so I'm not alone. Sounds like it's something that maybe comes across from an older install. Annoying.I did a fresh install of 0.6.6 today and I only have the same 4 sections as you.
Maybe because I had earlier versions they stayed visible? I didn't manually add them.Aah, so I'm not alone. Sounds like it's something that maybe comes across from an older install. Annoying.
Edit: I jumped on their discord and asked about it. It was intentional, as some of the apps there were added without permission of the devs. You can manually add these repos to get them to show up:
Yeah, I would imagine that earlier versions just added them by default so they've stuck around.Maybe because I had earlier versions they stayed visible? I didn't manually add them.
I heard that Beat On resolves this, but we haven't had an update since it came out to confirm.What are the general caveats I need to think about before modding Beat Saber on my Quest? I keep hearing that every update to the game wipes things out, including high scores - but is that just high scores of modded / custom songs? Or will it also screw with my saved scores and such on the official songs?
I did and got mine replaced with one that does not by going through support.Anyone had issues with stuck pixels? I got a Quest as a replacement for my kinda useless Go and really looked forward to having the OLED panel but I have a green stuck pixel right in the center of my right screen that is extremely prominent in dark scenes. Is it a widespread problem? I really hope one replacement will do it because it's an awesome device.
The two cheaper VR headsets I bought - PSVR and Oculus Go - were both flawless. My Index (that I've since returned) as well as the Quest now had issues with panel quality. I'm not even that sensitive to stuck pixels on specific colors, just pixels that stick out in darkness annoy me. Thankfully Amazon still has them in stock so I can get a replacement.
Ok, good to know, thanks. I already have a replacement from Amazon coming. Hoping for the best.I did and got mine replaced with one that does not by going through support.

Also, I cannot recommend the VR Covers FWIW, I got mine a few weeks ago (the foam replacements) and I ended up absolutely hating them, total sweat magnets and they reduce your FOV. Plus they cost damn near 70 euros with import tariffs included. A big waste of money in my opinion. I would look for some more disposable covers for workouts like these in the link below, a friend of mine swears by them and they're very handy if you want to share the Quest with others in terms of keeping germs away.
Super cheap and there are many options similar to the ones linked, these you fasten behind your ears and then put on the headset, no FOV loss at all in my experience.
There is NO WAY TO RAISE THE TABLES IN HEIGHT from the floor and for whatever reason they are super low... the only way is to trick the game starting it while on your toes. Same for their position in the room, so the best way is to find the right position to start the app so that you can play it while seating on your couch, unless you want to welcome neck pain since you're forced to have your head way too tilted.
Protip - Holding down the Oculus Button on the right controller also recenters the view - so you can move forward / back, stand on your toes and hold down that button during play to better position the table. It's still a hack, but just letting you know you can adjust it this way instead of having to trick it on startup.
Not sure if this is okay to ask here but I couldn't find another oculus related thread,
has anybody been able to find any good, decent working headphones for the rift s/quest? I've been using some in-ear earbuds but the cable is too long so sometimes it gets caught on things :x

Not really a direct link but reviews also show up on the website. Yours is on page 8.Dunno if you can link a review from the Oculus app to here, but I wrote one for PFX2VR:
I would strongly suggest to check out Side Quest: https://github.com/the-expanse/SideQuestAnyone got any reccs for free stuff? Searching from the Home and store seems to come up with extremely limited options. And a few things (Britiish Museum tour) simply never load for me.
I am a full rookie and have no idea what I'm doing or where to look. So feel free to be extremely reductive.
Dammit, I've bought Pinball FX2 so many times including PSVR that I'm going to have to wait and believe that sales will happen. Cool to hear it is solid.
MORE PINBALL please.
Pinball is a killer app for VR.
So it's confimred pinball FX2 is crossbuy? I thought only DLC (tables) are cross platform.
I just got my Quest last night, but I have one major problem, I have a small nose and there's constant light coming in from the bottom because of that. Does anyone else have this problem? Are there any DIY fixes or accessories to get for this issue?
I know its old by now but the past part of Vader Immortal is glorious. Great to fight with Darth Vader.
Well, props to Dash Kappei for convincing me to get Pinball FX2. I can't believe i've quadruple dipped on a lot of these tables but whatever. Hopefully supporting it helps the chances of us getting Midway tables. Hell, just release it as Midway Pinball VR if you want and charge me $20 a table, I'd freaking do it.
I'm likely done buying non-VR digital pinball. The difference is that stark. Even 4K pinball on a sub-frame-latency display just doesn't compare.

Just got mine. First Impressions:
+ the Display is great
+ no motion Sickness (that's weird, I always have motion sickness after not playing vr for a while)
+ it's amazing to move freely. No cord and a bigger room to play is amazing.
- god, VR is still expansive as hell
- that's a big Problem for now: I didn't have any woah feeling. I tested Robo Recall for a Moment and (obviously) it doesn't look as good as it does on PC, but I really didn't think it's that bad. It was bad enough to kill any immersion for me. The Aliasing and everything just didn't feel like I was in the game, it felt like playing a Videogame. I really hope that's because of Robo Recall. I have to test more stuff (including streaming from PC) to decide, but right now this is a big bummer.
Thanks for the suggestion! Just ordered one, I hope this will do the trick.I got a new cover from vrcover because the standard one is always soaked in sweat after my Beat Saber sessions.(the leather one doesn't soak up the sweat and can just be wiped clean, while the standard one stays wet and gets disgusting.
Nice side effect of these covers is that they are slightly puffier and shield light better. Maybe that can help you.
