When searching for services with service type
_oscjson._tcp
from another computer on the same network as the computer running VRChat, the following information is returned with
127.0.0.1
as the IP address providing the OSCQuery service:
name: VRChat-Client-07091F
address: 127.0.0.1
port: 57980
Of course, it's impossible to access the service at
127.0.0.1:57980
from the computer performing the search.
Would it be possible to either properly advertise the service with an IP address bound to the network interface, or alternatively, only advertise the service on the loopback device?
