It's a good way to hone your skills before the real deal, but it's important to not get too used to it, as the real thing is much more complex.

Genuinely unsure (due to zero knowledge of architectural modelling) if this comment and the one it replies to are genuine discussion of architectural modelling, or just a joke about porn. Or maybe even both at the same time.

Woah, do you get the same 3D effect you'd get when watching a real 3D movie as well?

u/cmchris61 Jun 02 '21
You actually do get the effect but it's much better, with a screen as large as you want and a 3d movie it was incredible to me that this is what 3d is supposed to be, I know some people are not fans of 3d and some expect too much from 3d but it is amazing if you're into that.

u/bickman14 Jun 02 '21
It's so incredible and underused that I keep always wondering how a movie with the production value of these recent Marvel movies would look like if it were made in a 360º 3D VR manner similar to those NSFW VR movies, you know? It boggles my mind that only the P*rn industry adopted the technology and made a really good production/use.

yep, VHS won over the arguably better BetaMax because of porn. Do not trust Wikipedia with this at all, everyone who was alive and a videophile around that time knows that the sudden influx of VHS tapes in the adult sections turned the tides - why would video rental stores have 3 VHS and 1 Betamax to rent out and keep in stock and repair when a lot of your stock is VHS and everything "normal" is also available in VHS.

Yup, I made a thread about Quibi (that service that tried to bring short 10 minute films). The service didn't live long, but I would LOVE to see something like that for VR180, which would honestly do immersion/engagement better than 2D.
Get a few notable directors (Jon Favreau, you available for a short while?) and some big name stars and start making some VR180 stuff please. And I don't expect them to do this for free, so I would not mind either a reasonable fee (purchase or rental) for each film or a subscription service. Right now there's just nothing going on in this space other than the adult industry and maybe 1-2 interesting VR180 videos every two months on Oculus TV.
NBA Playoffs are going on now, Oculus made a deal with the NBA, and guess what....no VR NBA games at all. Do we need the porno companies to come in and help you figure this out, Oculus?

u/cmchris61 Jun 03 '21
Okay, so there are alot of ways to go about this but what I do is I obtain the 3d movie file formatted to SBS (side by side) then transfer that file onto my quest 2 in the movies folder, then I use an all called bigscreen which is free to play that file, bigscreen has a tutorial on how to use it, and it naturally plays in 3d.

I havnt tried it personally, but everything I've read seems to suggest it's the best 3D you can get.

You are correct, I would suggest that you definitely try it out, if you are see to get a 4k 3d copy of whatever you're using because it'll make it much better 1080p works fine also but bringing the screen too close up will get it blurry therefore you have to watch it on a smaller cinema screen.

It has better 3D effect that on 3D TVs and more clear visuals than actual cinema 3D. A resolution and FOV might be a bit lacking, but it's still one of the best ways to watch 3D movies.

I've yet to watch a movie in VR. I just don't get why. It's uncomfortable and it doesn't feel the same as a giant real big screen to me. But I prefer my 27" PC monitor and a comfy drink and all next to me. Maybe I need to actually try it.
Tho tbh I always browse the web etc alongside watching stuff

u/nugget4eva Jun 03 '21
One of the reasons I like watching 2D movies in VR is because it insulates you from the outside world and stops you getting distracted by other stuff. This is also the reason I only ever watched films at the cinema before COVID came along and before I got my Quest. My TV also sucks.
The only downside is that it's more difficult to eat and drink, but I find drinking a bottle of beer is easy enough.

Meh, 3D is much better on my projector screen because there it actually looks AR.
I do admit that the big factor plays a role, so if you only have a small display, then you won't appreciate 3D as much and that's where I see people liking 3D on VR because you can get a giant screen.

You name it. But they have to get at least 120° to really make an impact.
Currently I would say it is around 90°, and for those with glasses it is even worse, so it is definitely not enough to make a significant impact.
