VR Camera and Comfort Updates (UPDATE)

This is awesome to see! I really like the UX of the sliding scale here in particular, and I’m also fond of the changes to reframe the character since I’ve run into this one a lot myself. It basically killed my 3P usage before, maybe now I’ve got to try again…

I’m happy to see continued work in this area to get more people to the right level of comfort to enjoy VR stuff more optimally :slight_smile:

Nice QoL updates! Makes VR much more enjoyable.

Still wish we had good default first person VR without devs having to implement it themselves but this looks like a good improvement to the third person VR.

This right here. I don’t mean to get off topic, but this is why we need regular Roblox advanced graphics settings. Roblox is doing it everywhere else but the graphics slider. Notice how Roblox cares more for the very few players who can afford VR, and their motion sickness, than the average playerbase on a year two thousand who-knows-what mobile device trying to get a stable framerate inside a ~50x~50 viewable area.

Also, I totally love this update as a whole, even though I don’t have a VR xD

Thats so cool! I wonder if it will work/be available on PSVR1/PSVR2.

These changes were desperately needed. One thing that always annoyed me about Roblox VR was that my camera settings were never serialised upon joining a new server. Has this finally been fixed? I always hated having to disable the vignette and enable smooth turning every time I joined a Roblox game in VR. Other than that, these settings look a lot more usable and will make the joining process quite a bit faster.

Thanks for the feedback, we’re working on it!

Your own VR settings will carry over to every game that is using the default playerscripts OR the latest VR scripts merged in to custom playerscripts. If the game has older custom scripts, this won’t work (which is why we encourage all devs with custom scripts to merge the latest!).

Slowly and surely, Roblox is becoming a great source of VR games! Now if only Roblox made their own immersive VR client. That would streamline the creation of VR titles and allow developers to build off one central and uniform client that allows the player to experience the game from their character!

Love the new drift camera, makes all of our games feel way better on VR, still looking for performance to be better though as its very weak right now…

Are you guys gonna be working on a 3 point upper body system so our hands and head are tracked? Will be able to see our bodies??

Man, the opportunities are endless!

Nice update for VR, thanks, will it be possible to work individually with parameters for rendering and camera parameters for VR headsets ?

Hey there! Just wondering what type of VR will run roblox. I’m assuming the Meta Quest?

This broke a massive part of my game - whoops! Don’t worry it’s all fixed now.

It did break all of studio and I had to re-install it, but at this point that’s pretty common.

I like the new comfort mode for VR users.

You mostly saved my life by figuring out how I could find a solution, but this update definitely saved my time and allowed me to take a breather. This primarily makes VR players feel at ease and improves their experience with the game.
