Face tracking in vrchat, a year later.

Honestly, it's my favourite feature atm.

The quest, pun intended, to be more expressive in vrchat continues. Face tracking was great, but adding eye tracking has been a hit. It feels like some sort of social tipping point has been reached. Behold, an awkwardly-recorded demo:

My quest 2 battery is nearly dead due to massive overuse, but with the usb-c hub and face tracking camera I get about 3-4 hours. Here's a pic from my initial testing:

Face-tracking in @vrchat is a lot of fun, and easier to set up than I expected.

Hard to believe this store is still up, but here we are in 2023 with full-priced Vita games.

I can't say no to new gaming hardware from Sony. Other than the price, only two back paddles and the reduced battery life... it's very nice and has a good feel. Joystick modules were a good choice in this age of premature stick drift, but making better joysticks would be ideal.

Stick maintenance. It was feeling a bit loose.

Tonight’s project was adding hall-effect sticks to a Steam Deck. Mainly as an excuse to open it up for the first time. It was surprisingly easy to work with compared to console controllers.

Current gen. It’s nice to be able to keep using the series 2 elite.
