In the olden days parents complained about kids needing to get off the computer and get some exercise.
But with VR, you get your exercise playing games.
Blade and Sorcery is the best cardio...until you punch a wall.

That's why you try to save up for an effective VR treadmill so you can run as much as you want without running into things.

B&S is a legit exercise routine, lol. The only game where I'm actually breathing heavy after an arena fight.

Yep. I have 2 big floor fans to keep me cool while I play.
I shorted out my Vibe with sweat once while playing Gorn.
Yeah, that's some great exercise.
Beat Saber is fun too, and Fruit Ninja with Ninjas is pure chaos (but amusing)

I am torn between the treadmill or full motion sim seat.
Treadmill +$2k, full motion platform +$1200
I play flight sims more than B&S so it would be logical to get the full motion platform and just remove the wall so I have a bigger area.
I miss my loft from the last house. 16'x30' play area...it was so much fun...so much room to play.

May I ask what headset you are using?
I just changed from a Rift S to an HP Reverb and I alreay miss the Occulus launcher. I am using Steam and Steam VR now, and it is a few more steps to launch and just seems to take longer for the game to load.

I am currently using a Vive 2 Pro. I chose that because it was the only one that would work with my wireless adapter...then two days after I upgraded the wireless unit died (I put a couple thousand hours on the thing.) I will prolly replace it soon (the adapter).

The cost of a treadmill is greater than the cost of removing the wall in my gameroom, so I will most likely cut out the wall (assuming it turns out to not be a load bearing wall.)

Sounds like you will have a nice set-up, keep us posted.

Hi guys, how can i make my ED screenshot's quality higer? (Sorry for my bad English)
20 Feb 2022, 9:16pm
Do you mean resolution or just general quality?

AcreolisHi guys, how can i make my ED screenshot's quality higer? (Sorry for my bad English)
Well, I'm not a guy, but...
1) Better graphics quality settings (everything to the top);
2) Higher in-game resolution;
3) 1.0x upscaling setting (more than 1.0x won't make screenshots any better, less than 1.0x will make them significantly worse);
4) High-Res screenshots (LAlt-F10 in Solo or PG);
5) Improving photo skills;
6) Post-processing software, such as Photoshop or Lightroom.
