make quest Uploads bigger
TempestWuff
make quest uploads bigger i just spent 5 hours trying to get a lanyard to work on quest, i had to remove half an avatar just to upload it and i had to lower the texture quality to something you cant read. just to kinda match it to my PC side. whats the point in quest 3s having an HD screen if everything in VRchat just looks like a potato

I don’t think people realize how limited the quest hardware is. Especially since they’re supporting the quest 2 still which literally has 6 gigs of shared ram/vram. Allowing people to upload even 20 MB avatars would absolutely ruin the experience for most quest users, there is absolutely no way they’re gonna raise that limit.
The quest already limits how many avatars you can show so imagine doubling the upload limit, that’s going to cut the amount of avatars You can see in half.

SanderNote089 I think that the 10mb download size can be increased as long as the relatively recent 40mb uncompressed limit stays.
Upping just the download size to like 12mb would only require extra ram for the avatar being uncompressed.

The Quest 2 and 6GB RAM phones are the set limit for Quest/Android. Quest 2 users have the "Too Many Avatars" issue too. That is why the 10MB limit. You don't need everything on the PC side to be on Quest. As long parameters, and toggle names match.

DragonTamerWes people pay for headset to see vrchat not part of it. meta needs to fix this, vrchat can force metas hand

DragonTamerWes also im tired of making amazing things from my avatars and none of my quest friends can see any of it, nothing will change endless, vrchat pushes meta to change it

TempestWuff How is Meta going to fix this? The quest runs off of a beefed up phone processor with 8 GB of shared RAM (6 for the Q2) it’s actually mind blowing that the game runs as well as it does on the hardware. The power of a standalone quest device is a fraction of what even a low end PC can deliver.

SanderNote089 dont get me wrong i get the limits ive worked in tech most my life but the limits mostly come from using android as the os they can change it or make there own. Either way its up to them to fix and my voice alone isnt enough alone.

TempestWuff changing the operating system isn’t going to make it run VRchat any better. Meta is not going the Completely changed the operating system of their headsets for a singular game. And even if they were, what operating system would they change it to?

SanderNote089 the limit is upload size is because of android not vrchat and not because of its hardware

TempestWuff might have to wait until 2027 for 3 years since the last of the Quest 2 was sold in 2024.

10mb is not enough!

Quest has a high Def screen and can look amazing, but limitations of VRchat end up leaving quest models looking more like Nintendo 64 models from the 90's. its time for a change.
