SMS messages not being recieved

I'm currently only logged in on my quest 2 and the app. I've been trying to log in on my laptop to cast the headset to it and when asked to enter SMS confirmation code I don't receive anything and I can't contact support because I'm not logged in on the web anywhere. Does anyone know what to do?

I forgot my pattern pls help!

I completely forgot my pattern for my oculus. I didn't completely lock my oculus, so I can still access my games and stuff. But I have to enter it whenever I want to make big changes. Is there a way to reset/change it without resetting my entire oculus?

A bit of combat over the Middle Eastern desert from the cockpit view in VR on the game I'm developing, I hope you enjoy it! (Any feedback is welcome).

Here is a full video of the "Quick Fight" mode, the first engagement takes place with a new aircraft: the F16-C implemented both for the enemies and for the player (there are still some details missing, as soon as it is ready I will upload a video from its cockpit too), I was subsequently intercepted by an F16-C and an F15-C (the same aircraft as mine). Unfortunately due to my connection the satellite map loads a bit slow, but I hope you like it!

Silicone face protector problem

Hello, I am using the silicone face protector that came with my oculus quest 2. I have had this issue where there is this tiny bump on the strap that reappears when I move it. This usually wouldn't be a problem, if it wasnt at the bottom. It constantly pokes my nose and obstructs my vision. If I move it to the side, it just presses it back. I've tried taking it off, but the regular face protector makes my face red and scratchy.

I don't know how to make this go away and it randomly started yesterday

Any help would be appreciated!

Rec Room anti headset

Ok so I know this is off topic but in Rec Room I made a gun that if you shoot someone that persons headset restarts automatically so what it does first is it looses your tracking then it restarts your headset if you want a tutorial just comment down and I’ll teach you if any of you guys play rec room👍

Does v64 have hand tracking in PCVR?

I thought I read that this was going to be a thing, and I updated to the beta branch, but the hand tracking is still not there, just says it doesn't detect any controllers. Is this something we're still praying for?

Best gunstock for immersion?

I kinda want a gunstock to make the game more immersive. I have shaky hands for sniping which is why I almost always avoid sniping. I mainly play pavlov. I'm very casual (i spend most of my time in TTT and non-traditional gamemodes). I prioritize immersion/gunstocks that feel like the real thing. Preferably not too expensive.

Help with Casting

I have a Meta Quest 2. Whenever I try to cast to my computer, it works, however it CONSTANTLY gives me the alert that it is casting to web. It gives me the alert, and when it goes away, it gives me it again. It is extremely annoying and I don't understand what I am doing wrong to warrant it to happen. Can anyone help me out?

Is there a good way to stream Quest 3 gameplay to Twitch?

Streaming PCVR (if you have the specs required) seems to be easy enough, but I can't seem to figure out a way to stream Quest 3 gameplay easily to Twitch. Would it just be casting to a browser and streaming that? or is there a bit more of a sophisticated way?

EarthQuest | the best travel app now without the API requirement (it is now optional)

The menu has been completely redesigned, with 1 more intuitive menu to choose between a Public API Mode ( which is possible to stop working when used by many people at once ) that comes with 3 pre-made API keys, designed to be updated from the cloud when broken, without the need for an app update. the keys work in line, when one gets full, the next one automatically replaces the previous one for 3D Terrain, Street View, and Address/Coordinate usage.

The Personal API Mode, which consists of infinite free usage, made by the user in a couple of minutes with in-game instructions, now got clearer and easier to understand, alongside 3 new buttons on the hand menu that:

  1. Transfers the user back to the API Mode Menu
  2. Opens the API Keyboard which automatically inserts the key into the input field when copied in clipboard
  3. Opens the Google Cloud Console website for easy access to key creation.

I hope this helps the best exploration app become even better than it currently is.

I’ve also made a website for EarthQuest ! earthquest.site (hopefully it will help more users reach EQ)

PCVR used to work great on my quest 2 and now it wont work on my quest 3 (low fps)

Lets see if someone can help me with this one, as i have tried everything i could google , and been strugling since i bought my q3.
About a year ago i sold my q2, which i used mainly with pcvr and it worked perfect. i played games like red matter, half life alyx, boneworks, etc, and they all ran perfect.
A couple weeks ago i bought a q3 and have been loving it. But i wanted to replay some pcvr titles i have and realized not even red matter works properly, as low as 5fps (unplayable).
Ive tryed both air link and cable link and they both work just as bad.
The quest link manu seems to work ok, but as soon as i open any game it just drops the fps like crazy.
my games ran from steam , but ive tryed both opening the game from steamVr and from the oculus manu and they work just as bad.
Task manager shows 33% cpu usage, and 43% gpu usage. Temps are around 85-88 degrees celcius. doesnt seem to be a throttle issue.
I updated both my Nvidia and my Amd drivers to the latest and greatest.
Also tryed different usb c ports when using the link cable, still same issue.
this are my specs:
AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU
Nvidia Gforce RTX 2060 Max Q Design GPU

Any ideas on how to fix my tracking?

My tracking has gotten significantly worse over the past 2 days for the Quest 3, I keep my controllers directly in front of the headset, but barely any movement causes it to screw up. I have great conditions, full batteries for both controllers, really good lighting, no sunlight, etc. I’m not sure how to improve the tracking past that. It’s gotten so bad to the point where I can’t full-combo even one song on BeatSaber, or I can’t get one good vertical or tag in Gorilla Tag. So any ideas would be much appreciated.
