absolute fucking madman saying "I'm not gonna implement this" then immediately turning 360 degrees and moon walking directly into the shit he said he wasn't going to do

Just don't confuse/mix it with rollingrocktime

I think a company has made one in real life.

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

That's why I know shotgun chokes will be a thing at some point.

Absolutely. As a real-life gunsmith and NFA weapons collector, I have been closely following this game for many years now. I started following when he was releasing devlog 30-something. After watching just a few of these update logs, I could already see the incredible potential this game had, if it's developer kept iterating and working on it. Suffice to say, over the years Anton has far exceeded my original wildest expectations, many times over. This game is truly revolutionary. Actually no, Receiver was revolutionary, this is paradigm shifting. This and Nobel Enterprises' "World of Guns" have literally set, and continue to raise, the bar for not only faithful but legitimately useful digital simulation/reproduction of firearms engineering and implementation (respectively). I don't even own a VR system or gaming PC, yet I religiously follow this channel and watch every development. No other "game" has continued to astound me, over and over, with it's attention to detail, proper replication of weapon handling and use, implementation of various unique weapon features, and overall just incredible verisimilitude. What other vr game can boast that it actually helps you learn transferable practical shooting skills and familiarity with the weapon platforms depicted? Some others might, but not like H3Vr does. I would honestly say this is roughly equivalent to Simmuniton or GBB force-on-force training. Obviously those have a tactile element that VR lacks, but this is much more configurable, convenient, and cheaper, since it's a single flat cost for a massive plethora of weapons systems and you can run countless scenarios as many times as you like, whenever you like, at home.

Glad to hear it!

Also better on Index controllers, as the touch pad REALLY doesn't like pressure.

can never have too much front sight.

Of the 2, it IS the most important one. It's the one you actually focus on, and for CQB point shooting (w/ pistols and SMGs) it's the only one you should use (similar to a shotgun bead).

Don't have enough in that category yet to make that make sense. Maybe later though.

If something isn't real, I think it's generally tagged with fictional in the Item Spawner 3.0 (newest item spawner)

WA2000 scope was updated, it's the beefy looking one between the G36 comboscope and the SUSAT on the table :)

I'm very uninteresting frankly, that'd make for a boring video lol Haven't done much outside of H3, favorite bit for it are probably these scopes, or the IPSICK/USPSAECIAL

No. For all the reasons I stated. Hurry expensive at VR resolutions, and not an actual representation of the behavior.

@@AntonHand Fair enough. I've just done things like this in vr stuff myself, it doesn't cost that much if you use the right shader methods or clean implementations of graphics.blit - you don't even need to burn a grabpass for it if clever enough cuz you can implement it to the scope's rendertexture via shader, there's a lot of tricks to put on the magic show of video game rendering to appear correct to the untrained eye.

@@GenesisAria Late response, but there are several problems with that (in addition to added rendering cost) 1) The parallax setting isn't actually setting a focal distance for the scope view, since scopes aren't focused, your eye focuses the scope view. Using your eye, you can focus the scope view any distance, regardless of what your scope is set to. What parallax does is set the focal distance for the reticle, because if your target is at 300m and your reticle is focused at 100m, you can't have both in focus at once. 2) No post-process blur effect applied to a rendered image will match how image focus/depth of field works IRL. With actual DOF, a tiny out-of-focus object near the lens could be literally invisible. With a post-process blur, it would instead smear that object out and obscure your view. This matters a lot for scopes, since the main thing you want with DOF is to 'blur away' your front sight or muzzle, but a blur applied to the rendered image would do the opposite

@@olefar02 First of all, while not everyone has this feature, eye-tracking could be used to control DoF realistically. To answer 2), i disagree. It's able to emulate it extremely convincingly with just the camera's depthtexture. See KinoBokeh for example. Doing it that advanced for bokeh emulation is costly. Unless you want to path-trace everything in your scene, everything is always going to be smoke and mirrors magic tricks to visually represent the desired effect. ...I should note i was also not referring to postprocess DoF, in the user-camera, but just in the rendertexture material of the scope and sampling the main depthtexture that i'm sure is active regardless, _if it wasn't soft particles wouldn't work,_ for mapping the blur in the scope It wouldn't cost much more than just the gaussian function in the shader (though afaik gaussian can be done cheaper with blit, but the shader could also quantize it). I'm not saying it's necessary, just that it's render cost is being exaggerated.

AUG A1 integrated scope will be updated eventually!

You do see "what the optic sees" in this system as well. The parallax system reacts to movement up/down and side to side, but the view is still coming from the scope's lenses, so you're still getting a view forward of where your eyes are. This is more pronounced on a longer scope like an LPVO, where there's more distance between the lenses. I don't have a 1x or any prism optic to play with, but I can see the parallax behavior in my old 4x40, as well as in footage of other optics, and I'm replicating it as best as I'm able. Whether the G36 has correct eye relief or not is dependant on whether the lenses on it were correctly dimensioned by the model's artist, but it does have correct FOV and magnification at least! In my opinion it's one of the least usable scopes in the game, but that seems to line up with what I'm reading about it lol

@@olefar02 I've made a quick video of a 1x prism example, if you'd like to let me know where you'd want it then I'll put it wherever, it'll get deleted as spam if I put it here :)

@@Hobbnob_FirstPersonAirsoftHmm, maybe upload as a private/hidden vid on YT and reply with the video ID (ie. everything after 'watch?v=' in the URL)? Would appreciate it! :)

@@olefar02Sure thing, here you go :) fvtEp4nukak This is obviously an LPVO rather than a shorter prism, but the fact that it's modern and top of the line should help in demonstrating the kind of shift I'm talking about compared to red dot/holographic sights

@@Hobbnob_FirstPersonAirsoft Thanks a bunch! I believe that's more or less how this system functions as well, though our lens distortion isn't 1:1 with a real optic. Testing it out in-game I saw the same sort of 'shifting' when rotating the optic in my hand. Internally our system uses a camera roughly where the erector would be, so I would expect the behavior to be similar (though much less apparent on the prism, since it's significantly shorter). The parallax we're talking about is more apparent when moving your eye behind a static optic mounted to a rifle with a front sight on it. With parallax off, the front sight will appear glued in position and track the reticle. With parallax on, the view will move and the reticle will appear projected at distance past the front sight. It feels a lot more natural, and better matches both footage I've seen and my own experiments with placing things in front of my optic and moving around behind it. If you've got H3 and a VR setup, you can hop on the experimental branch and test it out yourself :)

No. Multiple focal planes is not just super expensive, but the way game rendering does DOF isn't actually realistic, so it wouldn't behave how real scope parallax does.

Nah. As ex smoker, cigarettes are awful.
