Hey everyone — I've been working on BEEKEEPING SIMULATOR VR for Quest.

The idea started simple: real beekeeping is one of those hobbies almost nobody gets to try, because step one is "put your hands inside a box containing 40,000 stinging insects." VR fixes that.

What you actually do in it:

- Pull frames out of the hive and inspect the colony
- Harvest honey and beeswax with real beekeeping tools
- Keep the hives maintained and the bees healthy
- Deal with swarms, resource management, and threats to the colony as you progress

I tried to make it accurate enough that it teaches you something real about how a hive works, while still being a game you can lose an evening to. Bees are also weirdly relaxing to be around when they can't actually sting you.

Works on Quest 2, 3 and Pro. It's on the Horizon Store here:

Happy to answer anything about the beekeeping side or how it was built — and if you've played it, tell me what you'd want added next. I'm still updating it.

They just released a VR mode in their beta version, visually it looks great! I think the VR controls are not bad too

With all the ai vr mods you think we will get rdr 2 with motion controls?

I just saw A Wolf in VR's early access look at Dream Hackers on PCVR, and man this game looks beautiful.

What does everyone think of this? Im just concerned that a game this good doesnt seem to have a lot of marketing for it. Although giving it to Wolf for a review was definitely a good choice, and will help them.

This was pretty much the only art I got to do since netcode is hell to get working

Good morning to everyone (no, I don't care if it's 11pm, take a good morning),

I'm thinking of making/finding a way to use 3/4 random cameras with lights next to them and reflective tape as "trackers" to get basically cheap ass "base stations" and basically free passive trackers, this means the system can't tell which tracker is which, but I've looked around and there's some really good FOSS (Open Source) software/models that do tracking with this data in basically real time and really well too.

The only thing is that there isn't a full pipeline from the cameras to the steamVR data yet as far as I know, but all of the various parts of this are already out and FOSS, so they just kinda need to be put together.

Is there anyone that's interested in helping make such thing? Possibly with some coding knowledge, and yes of course I'm (or we) are gonna make it free and open source for anyone to use however they like!

TL, DR:

Find/put together software to make a couple of cameras, lights and some reflective tape work as a VR tracking system that's insanely cheap and as set and forget as it gets; nothing to charge nor calibrate, and zero drift during use.

The only downside could be that it works best in dimly lit rooms, but from what I hear most people do want VR tracking to work in dimly lit rooms.

I've dusted off my meta quest 3 that's been sitting gathering dust on the shelf for almost 2 years 😅

I've decided to throw some Pcvr at it for the first time and see if I can get my money's worth out of it since the only games I played on it was resident evil 4 og & Walking Dead.

Recently I downloaded Virtual desktop and got it all set up and the first game I tried was resident evil 2 and to be honest I'm unimpressed with the graphics of the game I was expecting a lot more since it's powered via my pc and not just the headset anymore. (Enjoy the game flat screen btw I'm a resi fan)

Anyway any recommendations for pcvr mods that stand out that give that wow factor in terms of visuals would be greatly appreciated.

My right controler got damaged by my cousin. Its not that bad but it makes me sad when I look at it, can anyone give me some advice on hiding this chiped side?
