    Teleport Reverb G2

    you can do it, it's just a matter of setting up a controller binding for it. Next to the WMR windows key on the controller is a button with 3 horizontal lines, it gets you into the steam dashboard, go to edit bindings and make a new binding. Here's mine

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    ok this Tap thing is awesome. took me 3 days to learn the keymap, but way better than point and click typing. downside is you need a free hand

    Question how to unlock characters positions ?

    You mentioned animation, which I assume means something like Timeline. Generally, as far as I understand it, Timeline is tracking the absolute position of where each control is in the scene,ie, not relative to the person node. @Acid Bubbles may have something else in the works, but my...

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    replying to my own post, I found this gadget. I'll let you all know how it goes https://www.amazon.com/vdp/02a316bb3d354841a2373e43958fd393?product=B09C2K7L73&ref=cm_sw_em_r_ib_dt_BRDnQLBVw4qz3

    Question a model based on a photo?

    FaceGen isnt perfect, but I keep going back to it, because it provides the best starting point, like TToby has been saying. Especially for the textures. Use high res photo references, with good lighting. Gigapixel is great to for doing magnification with little negative effects, also paid...

    Motion Capture from YouTube video?

    never tried it or seen it done, but a quick search for motioncapture and daz turned up a youtube video titled "DeepMotion: Daz 3D AI Motion Capture | Tutorial" If you can get something into Daz, there's hope. I know there's a way to import BVH motion animations from there to VAM...that's a lot...

    Question A list of all the body morph modify options?

    not that I know of, and given how many custom ones are out there, a diagram wouldnt be maintainable most likely. the bundled morphs are sorted into nice categories, but once you start loading a bunch of custom ones, you are pretty much trusting the morph creator to use good names. as for how...

    How do I make the character grab clothing?

    it can be done, you just parent the sphere to the hand, move the hand in timeline and trigger the sphere on and off at the right moments...it's kind of an art, but it does work

    Solved A way to test in which state a statemachine is?

    I know this isn't precisely what you asked, but based on what you're trying to do, I think you should be looking at "select choice". Check out the Demo scene that came with the logicbrick.12 download from the hub, it's in the 01-14 example set

    Running VaM on linux

    As a linux user myself, I can see the desire to run it natively, but that's pretty much all you'd be able to do anyway. Without daz you wont be doing anything beyond clicking around in the gui, which isnt why most of the people in the community are here. it's a lot to ask to appeal to a small...

    Question Texture Face from a Real Human (Reference Image based) ?

    take a look at materialize (I think it's bounding box software), and at least it was free...hopefully still is. It'll give you height, metallic...from which you can derive the Specular, Gloss with a tiny amount of effort.

    Question Is there a way to rotate the pitch/horizon in VR?

    great feedback, thanks for the thoughtful remarks directed at nobody in particular

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    I don't disagree with any of the comments. If there was a better way to type in VR, it would be a no-brainer for me...as positioning atoms is way, way easier in VR than messing with the axis-based move controls, which is so clunky. I think the experience probably even varies between VR...

    Quest 2 - Hand Tracking 2.0 is... WOW!!!

    My issue was not so much the lag, but the fact that there's nothing really there....without the haptic feedback, it killed immersion for me..at least for things requiring touch.

    Reddit Moderation

    IMO forget about Reddit. Reddit has its uses. I've always liked the idea of Karma, where good ideas float to the top and trolls become dis-incentivized. While interesting, but for the very reasons cited in this thread, it can still be gamed. Aside from the agenda of the posters, Reddit has...
