   Most flexible Metaverse out there...

   Most of the 3D world experiences limit what a user can build and do. This is not so with Vircadia. The Apache license makes this 3D application the most flexible tool for building custom and interactive worlds. Vircadia is truly free, open and relatively easy to use. There are several developers who are working and improving this platform daily! Free content ensures that new users have access to materials for building their world without having to worry about learning difficult 3D applications. I highly recommend Vircadia and believe this will be the next big server technology on the world wide web.

   🏁 Competitors: VRChat, Facebook Spaces, Facebook Horizon, Second Life, vTime XR, Metaverse, Sansar, OpenSimSim

   👍 Pros:    Spacial audio|Apache license|Inworld creation tools|Multiple platforms|Vr ready|Free content

• People who have appealed/attempted to appeal b4ns in a recent time frame, how long did it take for a response?

  The support email should be in the official recroom.com , so go check it. Source: 11 months ago

• Your next website might be a virtual world.

  Brands are building up virtual worlds on both web-based and localized platforms. Some of my favorite platforms include Mona, Spatial, Muse, RecRoom, VRchat, Roblox, and Somnium Space. These virtual worlds provide a unique opportunity for businesses to interact with customers, create immersive experiences, and build brand awareness in new and exciting ways. Overall, virtual worlds are the future of online... Source: about 1 year ago

• Rec Room completely lagging on load (Quest 1, looking for help)

  We can see you are experiencing some trouble with Rec Room, if this situation only happens to this app we recommend you contacting them directly through this link! Source: about 1 year ago

• Last day the week, so I guess we know SOMETHINGS going down with this Rec ARG

  And then I had thought "What about the https://recroom.com website? Surely there must be a clue there" Yeah, no. :((( I'm starting to feel kind of stuck here, I think the input area on the teller page MIGHT be a password, but I don't know. If I'm wrong, then that's valuable time wasted, and Thanksgiving Break ends tomorrow, but if I'm right, then we have a whole new lead. Give me some time to do further... Source: over 1 year ago

• Rec Room PATCH - the "Off the Old Block" edition

  We have status updates for issues in our Discord, but we're tentatively planning a proper status page subdomain for recroom.com or rec.net so we can link players to crucial info without them having to join the Discord. Source: over 1 year ago

• Vircadia: 2023.2.X “Selene” Release

  Vircadia is an open source (Apache 2.0) metaverse ecosystem consisting of a high performance real-time server architecture (C++), web SDK (TS), and web client (TS). Source: 5 months ago

• FLAC 1.3.4

  Not pre-baked. I work on https://vircadia.com/ -- it has to give every user their own audio mix to account for their 3D position. This means codec costs add up fast. You can't just encode once and stream the same thing to a dozen people. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• FLAC 1.3.4

  Both, primarily the first. Low latency is definitely a requirement, but no issues with Opus on that account. > I haven't looked into how expensive it is to encode in terms of CPU time, so I assume maybe you're taking about a bottleneck in terms of the number of simultaneous streams you can support on a single CPU? Yup! I work on https://vircadia.com/ -- we have to compress audio in real time and every user gets... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• When the Stagnation Goes Virtual

  Second Life improved avatars by quite a lot in fairly recent times. There's also alternatives to it, eg, check out the project I work on: https://vircadia.com/ It's a sort of spiritual successor to Second Life, since it was started by the same guy -- Philip Rosedale -- after he left SL. It didn't quite work, so the commercial project died and got picked up by open source forks, which is what I work on. It's less... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• When the Stagnation Goes Virtual

  To me it's useful/entertaining in the ways forums and chats are, plus some additional features on top of that. Eg, you can talk to people, but in addition to that you have a collaborative 3D environment with positional audio where you can script, make games or do other stuff. Recently a group using our project put up a Christmas Carol VR play, and the results were most impressive. https://vircadia.com/ -- it's an... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
