Thanks to Convrge (Hayden and Shawn.)

after 2 months that u guys saying this is the end i (still) would thank you guys. also in the subreddit (announcing the "end" of convrge) i already thanked you guys , i wanted to post this to show my thanks for using convrge for almost an year. In thas year i met a lot of people have a lot of talks i couldnt thought having with completely strangers . from religious talks with an american to political talk with a guy from an arabic country. Yeah,,, it cost me some sleep/nights because of the time difrences between europe and america ,but it was totally worth it. Convrge showed me te power of social vr and i am still loving it , even iam using an other program then convrge for it now (because new runtime). I will never forget Convrge how it was and all those peolpe i met there. Because it was the first social vr app i used a lot convrge will always have a special place in my heart , even now its not ther anymore (for 1.3 runtime).

There are some other social vr programs who are there so it woukld be hard to be succesful succesful but for the time u where there u where , in my eyes. the first program with a open youtube screen and cross compatabilaty (mobile and pc)

I wish you guys all the luck of the world

A hard decision, but we've decided to stop working on Convrge.

Couldn't Play Anything :/

Just got the app and tried to play just random videos on youtube in the app, then super popular ones, but just kept getting a message along the lines of "video not supported" on every video I. Is that a problem on my end, or are there only a select few videos supported that I didn't know about?

ConVRge via SideloadVR does nothing after install...anyone else? (SM-N920A - Galaxy Note 5, Stock, Unrooted)

Hey all....so, weird thing happened.... I installed the ConVRge app via the sideloadvr marketplace on my phone, it all seemed fine (I've installed other apps via sideload and they work just fine). The app icon appears at the end of my drawer (Stock, NON-rooted, SM-920A - Note 5 on ATT). I tapped on the icon expecting the white dialog box telling me to plug in my phone to the VR - but nothing happens. The icon registers the tap (animation that makes it darker indicating it's been pressed) but then, nothing happens. Hmm....ok, so I clear cache, clear data, force stop and uninstall. Restart phone in recovery and clear cache. Reboot phone and let it load up fully - takes about 1 min 15 seconds (AIO toolbox tells me). Load up sideloadvr, install app again via marketplace, tap on icon in drawer - same deal. Weird.

I email devs, they're scratching their heads. Asked them for link to unsigned APK so I can sign with my oculus sig via windows java application to sign apks. Download unsigned apk, use the sideloadvr injector - works successfully. Do a full reboot into recovery again, clear cache, load up phone from scratch, then copy apk over to phone and using phone install the signed apk. Installs fine, tap on icon - SAME DEAL. Weird.

So, do the full uninstall again (clear cache, clear data, force stop, uninstall), then a full recovery reboot with clear cache and decide to install the unsigned apk. Installs fine and still same weird issue where it doesn't load at all.

Anyone have ANY idea what could be causing this and what I could potentially do to fix it?

PS - I also have OS Monitor installed to show all running processes, and it doesn't appear that the ConVRge app is even starting a process. Checked logs but wasn't quite sure what to look for....

Thanks in advance!!

EDIT: Ok, I think I fixed it...I just tried installing the signed apk again, but this time via adb install - and it WORKED. Not sure if this was a factor, but figured I'd add it here in case someone else comes across this weird issue...they can give adb install a shot.....

Mirror in the app

Hi,

if you want to motivate people to upload custom avatars, please do add a mirror in one of the scenarios!

Speaking of which - last night I started convrge on the PC and there were a few rooms but all of them were inside the "bar" scenario. Are the other room designs unavailable?

Any chance for Cardboard/Wider Android support?

Now that there's a GearVR version out for testing, I was wondering what the possibility is for a more wider release to people using Smartphone headsets other than the GearVR? I would love to be able to use this on my Freefly/Nexus 6!

How does the Sideload app "convrge" bring up the mushrooms menu?

It keeps popping up, and I don't know what I'm doing to make it happen. What's the trigger.?

Anyone interested in a bad movie night? I've got a couple movies in mind to watch with a group of like minded individuals.

`Who's Online` Android app for ConVRge

EDIT as of 12/5: I recently received a warning from Google to not use a brand (like ConVRge) as the first word in my app name especially if the product doesn't belong to me. So I've unpublished the last version of the app and republished it under the new name, "Who's Online for ConVRge". The download will be available here after it is officially published: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.christiancoleman.whosonlineforconvrge

!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!!-!

Hey guys, I haven't been on ConVRge in awhile and I really miss it. But I had some free time the other night and made an Android app to mimick the Who's Online feature found at http://www.convrge.co/online using the API here: http://convrge.co/api/users

I hadn't seen anyone else make an app like it and I thought it would be a fun exercise to get back into developing for Android. Anyways, I don't think it is ready for prime-time (Google Play) but I have uploaded the code to my Github (https://github.com/christiancoleman/ConVRgeCompanion) so check it out if you're interested. And if people express interest I'll try and make it better and finally upload it to Google Play. Thanks!

Does anyone run convrge on Bootcamp Windows (Mac) with a DK2?

I'm having no luck, even though lots of other unity-built DK2 demos are running fine. I'm using a Mac Pro with a beefy ATI graphics card running windows 8 on BootCamp. If anyone else is doing DK2 on BootCamp I'd love to chat.
