Hello, I recently upgraded from the Quest 2 to the Quest 3. I have the original Oculus-branded Quest link cable for OG Quest and Quest 2. When I do the USB test on a 20gps USB C port, the maximum I can get is 2.2 GBS, is this a limitation of the cable or the headset? Wondering if I should buy a newer cable. Also if anyone can attest to the durability of the cable that would be good because its 4 years old and I'm scared to even bend it a bit lol.
Also second Question, Does Wi-Fi 6E make much of a difference over 6 for wireless gameplay?
Thanks
My quest 3 has been in the Update in Progress window for a cool 8 hours. I am going to be very angry if it is not the v71 update... anyone else experimenting the same?
So I’m receiving my quest 3s in a couple of hours, the last Headset I’ve owned is the CV1. I saw that countless posts of the Quest 2 charging port melting, is this still an issue? What was causing that? Any tips to take care of my headset like can I play while charging without it catching on fire or anything lol. I know I can’t let the lenses get hit by direct sunlight, my headset will be covered while not in use.
so i was playing beat saber at a normal volume and it randomly maxs out and later i cannot get it down
i am playing standalone on quest 2 with the newest update possible
Can someone tell me why the meta quest app says it can’t connect to the servers when I try and connect it to my vr?
So I’m tired of support bouncing me around unanswered. Sorry for the long read but it’s worth a shot to ask here.
Bought the first Quest back in 2019 and had great fun with it. But eventually stopped using it. Fast forward to a week ago bought the new 3. Love it.
Log in the new headset and it remembers my email address and that’s tied to my FB. Cool, get right into gaming but I’m missing my game library from my first headset, thought it would just redownload load.
Hit up customer support. They said I was supposed to migrate from the old store to the new store. But they will help me if I gave them my old headset s/n. They also asked for receipts for any games I had. I found two surprisingly but no others. I sent that info they asked for.
Get a email back saying they have no record of the headset and asked for receipts again.
Old headset got factory reset. Would it be beneficial to log into the old headset with my new account and hope the old apps appear then port them to the new headset? Or just cut my losses and just move on and buy the old games again? Thanks !
Hello there,
I've been trying to add my Instagram on the meta quest, I already got a meta account which is my Facebook account which my Instagram is connected but it doesn't let me add Instagram on the quest.
For example, as I want to add it, it just says "[instagramusermame] is already in another account center. You need to remove it from that accounts center before adding it here" even tho I never added it in a quest.
I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me please?
So I've been using OpenVR Space Calibrator to use the index controllers with my Quest 2, but I have to recalibrate every play session. I've read other posts about how to solve this by turning on something called "stage tracking" but I've looked through every menu and cannot for the life of me figure out where this setting is. Could somebody tell me where to find this?
The future is promising
Can anyone help with advice on how to cast from quest 3 to 2 ? Only interested in casting movies so both wearers can view same screen ? Thanks
as of now the only thing that keeps me on windows is my oculus headset. if there was a wine-compatible or linux-native app i would just ditch windows and forget about it as of a bad dream. but the only thing i can have is alvr which is usually way too unstable for me
How do you kill those hunters things that come after you in the animus in Assassin's Creed Nexus VR? Seems like the bow and whatever I'm doing is accomplishing basically nothing , and >!there's this scene where like 3 of them come at you at once.!< Looked up some playthroughs on youtube and I'm not really seeing what the other players are doing to get past this part that I'm not. Is there a certain trick or spot you're supposed to be hitting them on to have an effect? I block their strikes then do the palm-blade thrust like I usually do with a lot of other fights and it's just not seeming to have any effect...
For some reason a lot of features including media aren't loading on the meta app, it's been like this for a day now and I don't know what the issue is
Hi everyone,
I recently decided to stop using Cable, and instead play wirelessly. I never had shuttering playing wiredly.
Everyone a minutes or so, everything will freeze for half a second and continue. This sometimes seems to get worse over time (so it will happen more and more often into the gaming session).
I have a decent router (ASUS Archer RT-AC86U). I'm using 5G and play right near the Router. When I test the 5Ghz speed on my laptop on the same spot, I get 230mb download (from the internet), with 33mb upload and 8ms ping idle and 189ms ping while downloading. The PC is connected over wired cable to the router.
How can I figure out what causing those freezes?
First of all i want to say that I'm PSVR2 user. I tried friend's Quest 2 and I really liked the freedom you get. Should I get Quest 3? I don't want to sell my PSVR2, I want to get as additional headset. Really like MR and AR experience that Quest have.
im trying to cast to my pc on quest 3, but when i go to cast through the camera app, nothing shjows up, the pc option is not there
Edit: Found out you have to play the tutorial level until it finishes then the campaign unlocks (a screen pops up showing stats at the end)
I Factory reset my headset and went through the internet like normal and then it told me to type in the internet again.. normal i click on done then it says no internet connection but im connected to the internet.. somebody help me or get me out of setup can i skip it?
I’m currently debating if I should get the quest 3 or not because I saved enough money to buy the quest 3. Is it a good buy right now? Or should I wait until they release a newer vr? And yeah they released the 3s but I want the 4k graphics display. I hope someone can help me with this thanks!
for some reason my right meta quest 2 controller's joystick stopped working. nothing lead up to it, didn't bang it on a wall, or throw it across the room into a wall. it just stopped working, i tried re calibrating it but its hard to do that when it doesn't even move, tried re pairing it, restarted my headset, but nothing. its just the joystick everything else works fine.
I've had my Quest 2 for a number of years now, and I've really loved my experience in VR. I want to buy a Quest 3 headset, but I just can't bring myself to do so with the crappy PC software. All of my VR games are on my computer, and I've tried multiple ways to connect it to my headset. However, all of them have flaws and bugs. I tried AirLink for a while because it's obviously the freest, but I couldn't really stand the low latency and lowered resolution. I then went and got a cable to directly connect my computer to my headset. While it's not great being tethered to your computer, I honestly don't mind if it means that I can have increased performance and quality.
I honestly thought that having the cable would fix all of my issues, but it hasn't. About half the time that I'm using VR, I'm just dealing with stupid issues related to Meta's shitty software. First, getting it to even recognize my headset can be an issue sometimes. Sometimes when I'm in the middle of playing a game, it will decide to disconnect on me. When I try and go back and connect via rift, it will pretend that it can't see my computer, even though it's plugged into my headset. This leads me to have to take of my headset and either restart the software or my computer. Sometimes my games won't launch from SteamVR, and I have to restart my computer just to get them to launch. Sometimes when my game has some sort of heavy load (loading a level or something), my view within my headset just becomes super "wobbly" and the display makes it seem like i'm having a migraine (i really don't know how else to describe it). The only solution to this is to quit the link and restart it again.
I really love VR and would love to upgrade to a better headset, but I just can't bring myself to do it if I'm just dealing with issues getting my games to run properly half the time I'm using it. I work a 9-5 job and don't have much time during the weekdays, so spending my entire evening getting my games to run is extremely frustrating. I've heard some people talk about getting a dedicated router to run VR on, but I've already sunk money into a cable and it's ridiculous that I should have to do something like that just to get it to work via AirLink (or Virtual Desktop, haven't tried it yet).
Sorry for the rant. Just wanted to see if anyone else had any thoughts or suggestions.
I just got meta quest 3s,i I waited the whole day for batman arkham shadow, but it stopped at 15gb, what should I do?
So I just Bought ghosts of Tabor on my oculus 2, and when I went to go put it on, it started bugging out, so I turned it off and turned it back on again. But after that, it kept bugging out and when I turned it on, it would go from a black screen to my room to my hub to my room to a black screen to my room to a black screen to my room, so I reset it five times now, and it still won’t let me do anything. Is there anybody that can help out with this issue?
(Quest 2 sorry forgot to include in title)
For over 3 years now my headset has simply not worked properly for seemingly no reason. Whenever I turn it on I am greeted with the irritating buzz of the controllers every 3 or so seconds and a message that tracking has been lost. The thing is If I turn it on after not using it for 12ish hours it works perfectly fine until it goes to sleep or turns off.
Today I played around with installing a new proximity sensor and now I am even more confused. Here is how it went:
-turn on, everything works. turn off
-turn on, tracking lost
-unplug and re-plug proximity sensor
-turn on, this time either working normally for 1 or 2 boot cycles or back to step 2
-play for a while, turn off
-turn on, but re-plugging doesn't fix anymore
If anybody here has any idea what the hell I should do or even an idea that has a small chance of working I would love to hear it before my headset ends up flying out my window.
Thanks
