Any way to get non-passthrough versions of PT videos?

Vrsumo2017 its not about the models, its about the producers that ruin their content by making it PT which, as a technology, is trash.

eos666 I disagree with a lot of SLR's decision and get quite frustrated with some childish responses from certain personnel, but personally think PT is a incredible technical achievement, Alpha passthrough in Herespere of downloaded files can look astonishing, and for a quick fix the Ai Passthrough is just incredible tech.
I'm sorry, but to call it trash is just a child like response to something that doesn't work for you - most people understand the technical achievement even if it isn't for them.
Silly-Sausage "Technical achievement" is really overstating it
eos666 Do you even have a Quest 3? You don't have to like the technology but calling it trash would typically suggest you're not using the best headset for it.
Only 2 weeks ago I was in the same headspace as the OP. I didn't have a headset with PT capability and, frankly, I couldn't really imagine a scenario where seeing my cluttered desk behind the actress would enhance the mood. The gray/green room shit was off-putting while the CGI backgrounds were either acceptable "spatially" or acceptable "thematically" but never both at once. So all I could do was avoid PT altogether.
Fast forward to the present with my shiny new Quest3 (discounted) and my first sojourns into PT. I gotta admit that I'm a convert. PT is clunky AF and I'm constantly shifting around to match positioning--which is annoying. But PT seems to add another layer of intimacy that breathes fresh air into the SLR library. I find myself revisiting classic/favorite scenes that I haven't looked at in awhile and the "renewal" effect PT has on those scenes that were tired from overplay is awesome. Gina Valentina was my very first VR crush, but all her scenes suffer from LQ problems because they are years old. PT seems to overcome a lot of that so I can once again indulge my ridiculous Gina fantasies.
Its hard to describe what exactly PT adds for me because I'm still a PT newbie, so bear with me. I thinks its primarily this idea that with PT you are participating, while with non-PT you are watching. Its probably that, by eliminating the background, you get rid of another element that could remind you that you're "not there." It may also be that getting rid of the distraction of the background means that you are laser-focused on the actress(es) which really enhances that one-on-one intimacy (or 2on1, 3on1, harem-on-1, etc).

fuccaneer Mate, here's a recommended Ai Passthrough scene you must watch - one of the best scenes of all time, but even better with Passthrough.
I'm amazed it works so well, considering there are three girls to mask, if you get the right lighting it will look incredible

Also as you're new to passthrough - I highly recommend you download one of the 8k 'Alpha Passthrough' scenes and use Heresphere to play it adding a bit of sharpness and saturation to suit (Don't add 'Sharpness' in DeoVR as it halves the FPS - it's basically broken)
Honestly it will blow your mind how much better it looks compared to streaming.
A couple of recommended Alpha Passthrough scenes but obviously model choice is subjective:-

if you need any help, let me know
VRXVR Totally agree, I know we appear to be in the minority and most people love it but I really dont like it, Ive tried it so many times to see if it clicks but it just doesnt and I end up going back to the normal scene, I honestly do not see the fasination with PT

That's great news, this option makes a massive difference.
Also if you're interested, when the 'Saturation' is taken past around +7 it causes strange artifacts to appear in the image. You will see what i mean if you push it to around +15 and then slowly reduce it, +6 is about the maximum without issues.
Silly-Sausage thx. Should be fixed one way or another.
