 You can sign-up to test VR! EU only for now and it's pretty strict since it's not public. https://twitter.com/mediamolecule/status/1263825436980764675?s=20

It's cool that it's on the roadmap but it really should've "launched" with VR, as weird of a launch as it was already.

Yeah. I'm glad they are still planning on adding it, but I bought the early access version day one under the assumption that it would launch with VR. WHich was a large part of why I bought it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4QZjhwxG-0 I don't think anyone really understands how much of a technical masterpiece the Dreams engine is, it is so unlike anything else out there. I wonder what they will be able to do with the PS5 hardware...

I'm trying to get a cutscene to trigger only once - the first time you enter a scene. I put a variable modifier attached to the door and a calculator that says to power the timeline if the value is <2 but that's not working. I've made sure the variable is consistent in the world so it's not resetting when you leave but still no dice. It's making me bugfuck, any ideas?

It’s hard to confirm without seeing the full logic but I feel like “trigger the cutscene only if the value is zero” is going to be way more reliable than a less-than-two check. Less than two means it’s going to go off at both 0 and 1, at least twice, so depending on when you define and change the value that’s a lot more cases where you aren’t getting the result you want. Maybe even make it a boolean (true or false) instead of a number (I forget if Dreams has booleans though...)

Figured it out. Attached the variable counter to the doorway activation and set the < value to like 1.5. Once you enter/leave once that equals 2 and powers off the cutscene. I was really overthinking things. e: Glad too, since there are a couple of things I'd like to only trigger once so now I kinda know what the gently caress I'm doing

I'm making a game based on Mass Effect 3 gameplay, binding of isaac level design, and slay the spire style progression. Now, this is obviously a huge shot to call and sounds exactly like the thing a gamer would dream of in the shower, but I'm getting confident I can pull it off... Here's video of my first demo dream. I have a version working with a random dumgeon and flight, hoping to release that soon too. https://youtu.be/9o5MlZXIKG4

That's the great thing, I just grabbed the level off the dreamiverse and threw in my own mech. Getting the oval to show on one enemy at a time, and the associated mechanics, took two months

They streamed a bit of VR ahead of tomorrow's patch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8CtyBj2r7s Looks super cool. Messing around with scale in VR is one of the best things about it and being able to do so in real time like that will keep me occupied forever. I can't wait to see what people do with this stuff.

For real, VR is bananas, people are already doing a bunch of stuff with it and I didn't even realize that basically everything is VR compatible, more or less. Any scenery you've created you can now stick a VR puppet in and walk around in it. I had a couple I'd put together all the way back in the beta and just spent a good long while strolling around in them, it's so cool.

Has anyone tried any of the hyper realism Demos in VR? How do they look? I gotta bust out the VR and try this out. I want to try VR sculpting.

veni veni veni posted:Has anyone tried any of the hyper realism Demos in VR? How do they look? I think there's some kind of an adaptive/dynamic LOD going on maybe? Some more busy and detailed creations look quite a bit fuzzier to me than simpler stuff but I'm not exactly sure. Everything under the "VR compatible" filter has been smooth to me at least, and some look genuinely incredible like the Jurassic Park dilophosaur sculpt where you can scale it down to look like a little model diorama or go right up to it where it looks absolutely giant and you can see detail down to the scales on its skin. I had a go at VR sculpting and here's a tip for everyone who wants to try it: Turn off the sky setting in the comfort options. That makes it so the sky doesn't move when you move the camera in create mode which 1) makes it far less nauseating and 2) really makes it seem like you're working on a little model when you zoom out which is really great.

In non-VR news, one of Dreams' audio guys did a live DJ set in Dreams earlier and it's way more nuts than it sounds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKkIAxxXoXU&t=39793s E: Timestamp got messed up after I posted. Stare-Out fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Jul 25, 2020 |

There’s an insane amount of power in those audio tools, i really hope there will be a pc version of Dreams at some point with more MIDI support With Horizon coming to PC I’m sure Sony could be convinced to do it

How's the sculpting in VR? I liked the tools but the lack of depth perception was killing me. I played some non-Dreams demo showcase on psvr before and it had some game where you could make streaks in the air and I was pleasantly surprised at how precise I could get those streaks.

It's like normal, only with depth and scale. It works great. And you can do the streaks in Dreams with the paint tool, too.

With the new VR support does anyone know if it's possible to make asymmetric multiplayer using VR? One person in the VR headset, other players using the TV with controllers. I don't have the game but the ability to do that would make me highly interested in picking it up.

I don't have the game but the ability to do that would make me highly interested in picking it up. They're looking into it but currently it's not possible simply because the game would have to render the environment from too many viewpoints for the TV and the VR headset which would be very resource intensive and likely lead to performance issues.

I'd been wondering that myself since all it would really take was a new camera gadget to discern between VR view and TV view and as it happens it was a question they answered in yesterday's stream. They did say they're looking into it so with time and as you said, the PS5 running the game it could very well happen!

Dreams gets some pretty nice benefits on PS5, the thermo limit is insane and pretty much any game tested runs at full 60fps now, no matter how much stuff is going on. It was expected more or less but still nice to know. This is without any kind of patch from MM either, by the way.

And dynamic resolution is much less of an issue now too so there's barely any blur, particularly in VR where things are considerably smoother and cleaner. Load times don't seem to be affected all that much but it was hardly ever and issue in Dreams anyway. Super excited to try it out. Not having sculpting stutter in VR is going to be fantastic.
