Let's discuss passthrough (not a yay or nay thread)

justsomedude101

thatoculusdude Forum glitch, I assume. Still shows up as normal for me.

justsomedude101 works fine on my end, too! Thanks!

Wow -- that is something else! You know, I think I bought one of their devices when they were a startup and wasn't happy with it, so I tossed it. But this is incredible.

Or am I thinking of something else?

Probably! VirtAMate is a VR porn sandbox. You can toss 3D models, textures, scenes, clothes, toys, whatever, and then play in it!

I wish there was an SLR-branded VirtAMate or something similar, with official 3D scans, textures and voices from real pornstars 🤤 or even licenses for long-retired girls.

Oh, Holly Michaels 😌 A man can dream...

some interesting thoughts on the topic on this subreddit:

Tried the VAM passthrough thing for a bit out of curiosity and although it's fun it's also nowhere near the level that I would jerk of to it fidelity wise (and I have a 4090).

It's fun to move the models around and all but it's still a major pain in the ass to set up something other than just a basic pose. Really not worth it imo. Not trying to hate or anything, just wanted to add that I think this thing will be pretty sick in 6/12 years.

You know, with graphics that are actually lifelike in VR and most importantly a girl that is controlled by AI not by hours of setup. Having a few of your favourite girls walk around in your house AI controlled, do whatever you can think off. It's gonna be a strange but fun future.

mebejoe yeah, easily aligning would be great. Also having the right scale and a good perspective. And when you move your head from side to side the player should keep things aligned with your dick/body somehow

fenderwq And when you move your head from side to side the player should keep things aligned with your dick/body somehow

That would be the 6dof, I think it's on by default but you gotta move that slider all the way to the right, it still moves but not as much

Also, sad thing is when you do have it on you can zoom in or out tho 🤦‍♂️

BTW, I had a 50w garden/construction led light laying around. It's like the equivalent of 5 ceiling lights. I turned it on at night and the passthrough is much better that way. Similar as during a sunny day I would say. These lights are only 15 bucks if you don't have one

If you look at the comments in aggregate it would suggest the primary issue to overcome is something like this:

A dude is ready to whack off--starts the video gets everything lined up to his physical space & gets going with the set of sexual actions filmed at a particular camera angle and point. Everything more or less works fine until the point that the camera is moved. At that point:

The dude in real space has to move to match the camera change. E.g.: he has to stand up if sitting or lay down (if there's a bed in his space), etc. This includes, of course, moving his tissue, towel, lube, toys or whatever.
He has to readjust a bunch of settings on the video app. Certainly: Tilt, likely Zoom, sadly sometimes Rotation, maybe even Horizontal overlap to adjust scale, etc.
Rinse and repeat every time camera is moved (includes camera angle adjustments).

I know SLR knows this because you've talked about providing automated adjustments within AR videos. However, I don't think that will really work because too many of the adjustments are individuated to the particulars of the various viewers and their physical space (IPD, torso length, height etc.).

Rather I think they need to provide the ability for the user to save custom adjustments for each of the different 'sections' within an AR (passthrough) video. A section being a set of sexual actions in which the camera hasn't moved (e.g.: sitting BJ, sitting cowgirl, sitting reverse cowgirl).

Lol, right...
I be there fapping, it's going good and then it cuts and then the stunt cock floated off my junk area 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️, at this point we being trolled, they ribbing us? Lol 😆

100%. Saving settings that automatically switch with the video is essential. But I still think they should already have guideline parameters set for each video as it switches and then you can adjust a bit and then save. Having to do it ALL by scratch is intensitlvey time consuming and very very few people are going to spend the time to do it. So I think hire someone to map these out roughly and have each section "Set" to a "optimal" level and then each indidivudal can adjust it to their personal space/area. It's a LOT less work than having to manually do it for each angle/section even if you can save it. Needs to be much easier.

infiniteguy

Best practice for AR is of course to limit the amount of camera moves/adjustments in any particular video.

Best practice # 2 is for AR you absolutely cannot get away with putting the camera somewhere where a human head can't reach--like halfway down the torso. Recently, in one of the BETTER NEW AR videos they put the camera for a seated fuck where only a dwarf could possibly put his head. There was no way to line that up. The male model was laying down and they put the camera halfway up the torso in space.

infiniteguy right, like the camera to far from his face, like in that one with the stripper in the begging, if look how's the cam is positioned only guys half stomach is in frame and if you sit in a chair the model is to close and she kinda standing on your legs, well not standing on your legs but her image is overlaping over your legs rather it look like her feet on your floor.

And dodgystyle they be having the cam to low, and this causes her ass to be half way up to my stomach.

Cam needs to be where dudes face is and as close to his face as possible, I rather zoom in then zoom out.

Laying flat cg rcg they pretty much nail that 90% of the time. I'd suggest just lowering it closer down by his face but distant is usually good.

I just think the cam should always be placed where male models face is to get his full body in frame. 🤷‍♂️

mebejoe What if the viewer could use a controller to "locate" his dick

Lol 😆
I just thought that was funny 🤣

Vrsumo2017

SchnuppiLilac meh, for me I can watch regular vrp and maybe get a good pass through and use the pass through as an option

Toggle on toggle off. Get the best of both worlds 👍

Vrsumo2017

Yall tried any of the pt hack videos where they doing spooning position, you lay on your side like the guy and it looks like she laying on your bed, lol 😆 🤣 shit crazy!

Ima have to find a good pt hack I made for yall.

Edit
Try this one during the spooing part.

I've done a lot! Like a lot! A lot lot. Lol 😆

Hurto11 - Have you guys tried lining up the camera quickly and easily with just the 'grip' method?

"In DeoVR (quest 3):
Go to Settings -> Controller -> Under the GLOBAL tab -> Re-map the 'RECENTER' button to 'Primary Thumbstick center' or any preferred button that you don't already often use
(Make sure you click the green check mark to confirm and override any previous mapped button)

Now once the native passthrough video plays, just click and hold your center thumbstick button -> then just move your head to drag the scene to line up with your cock, and release the button -> perfect alignment quick and easy everytime!

fenderwq

RealcumberScripts yeah, I have, but your are still aligning A LOT of the time. It's worth it but I think fewer positions and positions where the camera is perfectly positioned are needed to make it more immersive and less of a hassle. So you can just enjoy the movie.

Also frequently switching from laying on a bed to the couch, to standing, to whatever is a lot of effort especially with a handy. I think eventually the format will find ways around this but at the moment we need to shoot a little differently for passthrough imo.

Vrsumo2017

RealcumberScripts I just hold both triggers and move it, but I mapped that to my A button. 🤷‍♂️
