The cool thing about FOSS VR is that if you need to replicate simple machines, such as dials, clocks, levers or gears, you can build the interaction surfaces yourself. @basisvr.org

Well, we did it again - we broke our previous record and achieved 679. Still, there's lots more to do. I have not been this nervous during an event since asking my fiancé to marry me. Appreciate you all. We will try to break 800 in a few months.

A new dynamic seat system is coming to Basis VR @basisvr.org! It includes support for any size avatars on any size seats, in any orientation, with the legs and spine at any angle. This uses the same data as in the @openmetaverse.bsky.social OMI_seat standard. PR: github.com/BasisVR/Basi...

This seat system is designed to be much much better than the seat system found in VRChat. It theoretically can allow for any character to fit to the seat, and have them line up properly, with their knees over the edge.

When a character's legs are shorter than the available space on the seat, the back and foot IK positions will move forward or up, respectively, to keep the knees aligned with the seat. When a character's legs are longer than the available space on the seat, the knees will be moved instead to make room. If a character's upper leg is shorter, the knees will be moved forward. If a character's lower leg is shorter, the knees will be moved upward. If both happen, the knees will be moved both up and forward.

The control points do not have to exist at 90 degree angles to each other. You can change the relative angles any amount and the legs will bend in response. For example, if you want to kick back, just move the foot control point forward a bit. You can also adjust the spine angle if you want the character sitting on the seat to lean back. At the extreme, you can even make the character sit in a way that is almost entirely laying down, or almost entirely standing up (as long as the control points are NOT perfectly collinear).

Helped out on the stress test for @basisvr.org this afternoon! 540 clients connected to one instance while I was in (11 of them were mine, ran out of RAM lol). Still got 35-40fps in world, though audio was dead and avatar updates were happening at like 1hz. Amazing everything stayed up tho!

Seeing first-hand the results of this play-test last night has given me a lot of hope for seeing how developers can utilise this framework to create unique events and spaces. Virtual clubs, music events or festivals that can push actual crowd numbers, in a manageable way, would be hugely immersive.

Broke our record again today at 294, ended up running out of computers to run basis clients on, plenty more to give. It was great seeing everyone. We run tests weekly; feel free to come along for the next one! basisvr.org discord.gg/v6ve6WT562
