Link is way too expensive, and virtual desktop is wireless and just 20 euros, its an app that you can play steamvr games with, including roblox, wirelessly. Search it up.

I’m pretty sure there is just miscommunication happening here.
@Rototally probably think’s that you guys mean a virtual computer, like a hypervisor sandbox where you can install apps and stuff on a isolated desktop.
What many of the people in the thread, aswell as you, are talking about is: the oculus app called “Virtual Desktop” (vrdesktop.net). Which uses the same function as Oculus Air Link, streaming a video of your desktop to the oculus, allowing for people to play wirelessly. To be honest, the naming of Virtual Desktop is pretty bad considering that it’s already a commonly used term, and it technically isn’t really virtual as it’s just your physical computer live-streamed to the headset.

I am having problems with running VR in studio now, studio doesn’t detect headset. And still doesn’t after restart of studio and oculus software.

I finally tried this update. It makes VR way more useable for my game with no mods to the game script.
I was surprised and blown away that I could actually fly the planes in my game. I had converted some old v2 plane kits to work with mobile and that script worked great with this new VR update. I could sit in the plane, use my run control to throttle up and then just look wherever I wanted the plane to go.
I didn’t’ find the vignette as distracting as some others here have mentioned. It only shows up when you walk and it was pretty far out in my peripheral. I don’t see what its doing for me though either.

Always been on, so that shouldn’t be the problem. Tried turning that off and on multiple times in roblox and studio.

I haven’t heard of virtual desktop, no need to be rude. It’s probably more simple to use the cable, which is what I do.

Its not more simple. Like just install virtual desktop both on the computer and the quest 1/2, add your quest name to the dekstop virtual desktop list and thats it. Wireless pcvr on the cheap.

There is also Air Link, which is free and is similar to Virtual Desktop

Air link has worse performance, is buggier and doesn’t own as many features as Virtual Desktop. It has way more ping, and that is the breaking point that made me switch to Virtual Desktop. From 120 ping I got 34 ping
