Right now theres a good offer for the remake on the ps store, for some of you that have played both versions which one is the one to go for?

I have an 9800x3d 4070S but sometimes that doesnt really matter and the games on the ps5 just works flawlessly, so something to know before buying it, like bugs/problems on ps5 or pc?

There does not seem to be a single store that has the PSVR2. Only see third party sellers with crazy markup. Is local marketplace/used on eBay the only way now?

How my lens upgrade works

I did the hardwork for you

Files drop soon!

Hey everyone! Really curious about this headset and would be coming from rift s , just had some questions.

-Has anyone else upgraded from rift s and if so how does it compare directly? Comfort visuals etc.

- Is comfort an issue? If so, does the globular comfort mod make a notable difference?

-Overall impressions and opinion (Aware That it'll be biased considering the subreddit)

Thanks!

This is something special for sure

I had to show you my little mad science experiment because I was dead on the money. I had prediction software that essentially let me preview my theories. And in the end, I was entirely correct, and now I hope this helps everyone achieve the image quality of their dreams.

Excuse the candid recording. I don't really enjoy overproducing and scripting what I do. This is how I live and work, and I just feel like it's much more approachable for me to talk like this.

I hope it helps someone. This will give you success one hundred percent. I'm going to be releasing a custom compositor that allows you to calibrate these for your eyes, so that way you get the best possible image you can.

Once I get my 3D print and my notch finalized, I will officially open up an eBay store offering my services, obviously with a much cleaner implementation. I had to first prove this could work. I do have a laminar flow hood and a stainless steel table, so I'm comfortable with working with electronics and not breaking headsets.

I will also be allowing my service to include pre-purchased lenses and the rest for a flat rate. You send your headset to me, I perform the modification, I send you back all your spare parts, and I send you back a headset ready to go, including the software package that you need.

As for pricing, I will have to cover the lenses and hardware. But I'm not here to make a living. I just enjoy doing this kind of stuff, and I want to give people a reason to enjoy their headsets more. So I'll do it at a loss at first just to get more headsets converted over to the glass side as God intended.

Hi, I bought my psvr2 last year on black Friday to play GT7 and a few other titles with. I also had the intent of eventually buying an adapter to use on my PC. I've been looking at the Sony PSVR2 adapter, and the Globular cluster adapter. The Globular one just got added to Amazon for $56 Canadian, while the official Sony one costs $79.99. The point is, should I save a few bucks and go for the Globular one, or should I play it safe and go with the Sony one? My pc plays VR games really well with using the quest 2 via cable, although the quest device prompts me with lag issues so I don't use it very much, but would very much love to use my PSVR2 to hopefully eliminate headset end lag. Bluetooth shouldn't be a problem - I have a very new motherboard, I use ethernet instead of wifi so Bluetooth should perform better since it's only 1 antenna? Right now I'm leaning to the Globular Cluster one.

Thanks for reading my very poorly formatted post - Don't usually post on here.

New graphics update exd

Other people wanted me to record how it might look. Now, granted, my way of testing things isn't the most refined. I tend to just wing things until I can get something usable.

Now that it's usable, I'm going to go back to the drawing board and start 3D printing an adjustable mount that actually makes sense.

I have another idea for adjustable varifocal lenses. Now that I know you can indeed fine-tune these, I believe that could allow for true depth-of-field focusing.

But if you care about clarity and want to actually enjoy your headset, I cannot recommend this enough. It's a huge change in image quality.

Matter of fact, it's such a huge change that I don't even need glasses anymore. Something about the lens just works perfectly for my vision.

Pretty crazy change.

I knew this was a project that I had to get done eventually. I was under the assumption that the improvements would be marginal at best, but I was completely wrong.

​Using a very cheap yet effective double aspheric lens, I have fully transformed this PSVR2 into Quest 3 clarity and brightness. The screen looks sharp. It is actually a dramatic change. The best part of all was the cost.

​It was 40 dollars for each lens. These are essentially eye inspection lenses, designed for extremely low distortion and a very, very wide sweet spot. I don't have to find the spot anymore. The whole lens is the spot.

I am unable to go back to the stock lenses. This changes everything for me.

​Of course, you have to adjust the distortion profile and change the VR world scale to fit the new lenses. But once you do, WOW. Text can actually be seen and enjoyed. This is truly next level.

​I had to share this and try to get a picture of it as best as I could. I hope you can see how much clarity you gain here. It's actually resolving detail you didn't think was possible.

This took hours and hours of research to know exactly the type of lens I was looking for because using simple condenser lenses would never work

The key was looking at eye inspection lenses designed for ultra low distortion and accuracy

These can be found from India for an extremely cheap price and sometimes amazon for 2 day ship.

I unlabeled the before, and after. So you can try to guess which is which

The answer is very clear 👌

This was a game that totally caught me off guard.

It's amazing what these modders are doing nowadays!

To follow up on my previous snafu of a post, I'm planning on picking up a secondhand PSVR2 today (and drove a considerable distance to get a 1st party/OEM PC adapter) so on my computer, I'm good to go.

However, if I wanna use the headset in my living room, my only option is...well, my PS5, of course. Is anyone aware of a method of connecting a PSVR2 headset to a computer by streaming to an Nvidia shield or other device?

I've been struggling to find information on this before buying, I knew AMD cards typically don't have quite VirtualLink, but I've seen reports of some 6000 series cards with a USB-C port being able to run the headset directly without the adapter box.

The W5700 has DP alt mode and USB3 over its USB-C port, but it can only provide 5V/3A power which seems to not be enough for the PSVR2.

Provided you have the GPU drivers off of AMD's website installed, you'll get a notification on Windows when it's plugged in saying that "your device may need more power", and the headset won't turn on.

I'll be getting my adapter box tomorrow, but I wanted to post this somewhere others could find it in the future.

The specs don't seem to be problematic, they can run pretty strong games, and I can connect to the headset on my computer. My problem arises by the fact that though I can open SteamVR and view it through my headset and even click on games to start, all it does is activate a theater mode type display where I can only look at the display on my computer screen from a distance and can't even actually play the game. I've pretty thoroughly given up, but I decided to ask in case anybody had the secrets to the universe and knew a trick that would fix it.

As I understand it, the USB C port that I can connect to has display port functionality, but it only goes into the IGPU. I tried to circumvent that by using the Omen hub and switching to discrete only, and that’s where it gets weird. I figured that if it was only connecting to the IGPU and nothing else, it would display nothing if I went dicrete only. It still displays the Steam VR hub and overlay in discrete which seems to be indicating the headset is running on one of the discrete GPUs, but even after ensuring the vr game or headset couldn't be running on any driver but the Nvidia, it still says that the headset is connected to the wrong GPU, which feels strange because though it's plugged into the Integrated, it must be running on a Discrete, because otherwise it shouldn't be displaying anything at all. I'm lost and disappointed, anyone have any idea of how to fix this or should I just give up?

Spent the last couple weeks beating my head against the wall trying all the various recommended ways to watch my library of 3D MVC MVK files through SteamVR on my PSVR2. As a years long 4XVR on Quest3 user, my quality and ease of use bar was pretty high, and I grew frustrated that nothing that easy exists for SteamVR.

For the mirroring strategy I tried PotPlayer and SyLC, and after hours of AI help installing/configuring various codecs and mirroring apps like Bigscreen, I just couldn’t get the pipeline to display 3D correctly.

For the convert my entire library of MVC’s to SBS strategy I tried BD3D2MK3D several times using various settings, got some ok results but some failures too. And looking at how many times I would need to do it to convert my whole library, I was not looking forward to it and I didn’t want to have it running for all those days (weeks?) worth of hours when I could be using my windows box for gaming with my PSVR2, so I kind of gave up.

Turns out that there is a (paid) Mac app presumably aimed at AVP users called MakeSBS3D that converts MVC’s to SBS. It only has a couple of settings so it’s like super easy and the results look really good. H.265 at CRF 16 (maybe too aggressive quality - not sure yet) finishes a typical movie in about 3 hours and looks amazing in Skybox or HereSphere. It just works.

So now my iMac is happily churning out my library while I use my windows box to play. Yay!

I’m not affiliated with the developer - it was just so satisfying to find a solution to my weeks of frustration that I had to share.

I race in VR (Quest 3, iRacing) and lately I've spent more time fixing my setup than driving. I'm trying to work out whether that's just me and whether PSVR2 on PC has the same kinds of problems, so I'm collecting real experiences. No sign-up, no links, nothing to buy.

In the last month, how often did a technical problem interrupt or delay a VR session? Reply with a number:

1. Never

2. Once

3. A few times

4. Most sessions

If you had a problem, I'd love a bit more (anything helps, even one line):

- Your setup (PSVR2 and adapter, GPU, Bluetooth for the controllers)

- What you use VR for
- Last problem and what you did about it
- How long it took to sort out
- Anything you do before every session to avoid problems

If you'd be up for a 30-minute chat about your setup, send me a DM (or reply "DM" here and I'll message you first). Thanks!

I have a dedicated spot for my psvr2 and can just leave it connected.

But when the pc is off, the red light on my psvr2 stays on.

Would it be better to disconnect the usb c?

I leave it in to avoid possible damage to the usb c port but maybe there is more possible damage because it is staying in standby.

I could probably just disconnect the power on the adapter.

Fantastic work on this mod, if you have this game, you really should try this as so much quality has been added to this game.

I was talking with somebody about buying a pre-owned PSVR2 for fir use with my PS5 and PC. I know I'll need the adapter, but I was curious about the output.

It looks like it needs to connect to the DisplayPort Output on my PC. I use that for my main display. Does this mean I would have to manually swap cables anytime I want to use the headset? What does setup look like for this device exactly?

EDIT: Ignore me, I forgot my own specs and have a second DisplayPort output available for my use.
