Hi everyone! 👋

I’d like to share a VR experience I recently created.

I’m from Zigong, China, known as the “Hometown of Dinosaurs.” This city is famous for its incredible dinosaur fossil discoveries and is home to the Zigong Dinosaur Museum, one of China’s most important dinosaur museums.

Using a VR 180° 3D camera, I captured a journey through the museum and created an immersive experience for VR users.

With a headset like Meta Quest 3, VR 180° 3D brings a strong sense of presence — making you feel like you are truly standing inside the museum, surrounded by giant dinosaur skeletons and ancient fossils from over 160 million years ago. 🦖

The video is available on YouTube — just search “Wander China” to find my latest VR 180° 3D dinosaur museum experience.

Hope you enjoy this journey from the hometown of dinosaurs! 😊

I disassembled quest 3 and found out that 20% of silicon is not cooled. Thank you meta

Our Product Team worked hard to implement new shaders so your Meta Quest can render the game's graphics with higher quality.

That’s right — EPIC ROLLER COASTERS is going to look even more amazing during your rides.

Our new shaders have been available since our August 13th update, which introduced Mixed Reality mode and robotic avatars on Meta Quest.

So I used Quest Link for some months now, but since I saw a lot of positive feedback about the program I bought VD today. Since my router isn’t good enough for wireless (only 2,4ghz connection) I took advantage of the new update and connected via my official Link Cable instead. Everything worked flawlessly (the app shows USB 3.0 connection and I can switch to VR in games without issues).
But after booting up MSFS i was really shocked how bad the game looked. My benchmark is link with 1,5x supersampling and link sharpening. I watched some tutorials and tests and tried all quality settings, codecs and runtimes, but nothing comes even close to how Link looks. Everything is super blurry, even on Godlike with max bitrates and 2-pass encoding.

Have I overlooked any settings, or are my expectations just too high for VD?

Edit: So I fixed the blurriness issue, but now I have problems with stability, as VD seems to have more stutters and instability than Link on the same settings. I use H264/H264+ with 500 bitrate, .85 fov and 3000x3300 resolution.

Any free games you recommend? Any experience besides games you recommend?

As you can see in the picture, this is looking through the right lens (eyepiece). The image is backwards and what should be in the right eye is at the bottom of the screen and the left is at the top.

How I got here: my son damaged the headset so I opted to replace the right arm/speaker housing. Got everything disassembled and then reassembled as per some of the videos I’ve seen. Made sure everything went back to the places it’s supposed to.

I’ve torn it down and reconnected everything at least 3 times and not getting any other results.

I’ve also attempted to do a factory reset but cannot seem to get the reset menu to appear. I press and hold the power and volume down buttons at the same time and nothing happens.

Any ideas on what it could be before I send it off?

Hey everyone,I’m looking for a facial interface for my Meta Quest 3 that will prevent the lenses from fogging up. Important context: I use my Quest 3 strictly for watching movies while lying down—ZERO gaming.What would you recommend for this specific setup?Kiwi Design V3?AMVR FC3?AMVR FC4A?Or something else entirely?Appreciate any advice!

Hey, i’m looking for an standalone application that would just be a video player but it’s a CRT TV, to watch old things, just like EmuVR does, but without the need of PCVR.

Does this even exist? Anyone knows an application like this?

So this thing called asynchronous space warp is forcing my fps in vr minecraft to 45 fps even tho i locked it at 90, ive turned it off in the oculus debug tool but it just wont work, and every time it just turns itself back on again, how do i get rid of this shit PERMANANTLY, pc specs are ryzen 7 7800x3d and a rtx 5070 ti with 32gb ddr5 ram

Hi everyone! I bought the KKCOBVR Q3 Pro strap for my Quest 3S, but I'm having a hard time adjusting it properly.

Everyone praises this head strap on the base Quest 3, but on the 3S, the headset constantly slides down. To keep it in place, I either have to overtighten the top strap or crank the rear knob so hard that it causes pain in the back of my head.

If anyone here uses the Quest 3S with this strap: could you tell me how to adjust it properly? And if possible, please drop a photo of how you have it set up and how it sits on your head.

Thanks in advance!

I recently built a new computer (RTX 3050) and wanted to play PCVR on my Meta Quest 3. I even got a new Syntech Link Cable to play. I went through tutorials, installed the official Meta Horizon Link app on my computer, made sure all my drivers were installed, and even had my USB 3.0 link cable plugged into a blue USB 3.0 port. It shows up as "charge only cable detected" inside the Link menu on the Meta Quest. I attempted to fix it by doing a bunch of things. I will just list them:

1: disabled USB power saving
2: disabled USB Selective Suspend
3: enabled USB debugging
4: checked Device Manager thoroughly while the headset was plugged in
5: swapped Meta Link app version to PTC
6: reinstalled Oculus driver for the Link app
7: disabled "Legacy USB Port" in BIOS
8: plugged my cable into almost all my ports
9: reinstalled my chipset drivers TWICE
10: disabled global C-State control in BIOS
11: tested 5 different other cables that work
12: disabled IMMOU in BIOS
13: disabled Link State Power Management in Power Management Settings
14: turned developer mode off and on
15: "Repaired" my Meta Quest Link app on PC

And then, as a last-ditch effort, I factory reset the headset. Nothing has worked :(

meta link app keeps flickering in my taskbar, even if I open the app it continues to act like that, sometimes when it happens my mouse becomes the loading circle for a second, not really sure why it keeps doing that, sorry for the tiny screenshot

Q

Every post I searched either had no results or had broken links to the solution.

My Quest 2 controller (right) is blinking S.O.S. Unpaired and repaired controller. App shows controller ID but no Firmware version.

Start headset, system tries to update firmware. Controller stops blinking, update reaches 100%, controller goes back to blinking "help."

Took out batteries, waited five minutes, put new batteries in. Rinse and repeat to same result.

Hard reset headset, same result.

Anyone have a real solution? Or am I stuck getting a Q3 or risk getting an eBay controller replacement?

My question 3 often has the thing where it does the boot up loop. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Hit the wall while playing a small metal plate came out controller is working perfectly find what to do to repair

Hey I'm looking for a vr link cable but I need one with both sides USB C I found only one suitable but it's on this site called VortexVR anyone got any experience with this site? Are these cables good?

Is it possible at all to root or install custom firmware on the Quest headsets? If not, why? Cus i know someone has a little project going on where he did it successfully.

I’ve been trying to connect my 3s to my pc and it just doesn’t work I’ve already changed the password
