IN-DEPTH VR PHYSICS INTERACTIONS - Part 2

[@LukeRkam]

I've never been hyped for a physics engine more

[@pointfive6500]

yo same, lol

[@Dan187-]

Just imagine the vr scene if the engine would be open source...

[@DuckTheFinn]

Its not a physics engine.

[@Dumb_Dash]

@@DuckTheFinnwhat is it then 😂😂

[@JimmyNuisance]

@@Dumb_Dash It's all the parts of a game being made one by one. He's making all sorts of systems so that he can then either make a game with the parts, or maybe sell the project as a template for others to use as a starting point for their games. I'm not sure what his endgame is with this, but I'm excited no matter what.

[@BillyBob_1177]

People were thinking marrow would be the main vr engine. Now we got this!

[@Dumb_Dash]

Marrow is still better so far in my opinion just because it’s already polished, but nimso does take the time to perfect every little detail like “wibble wobble” for example. Eventually this system will be ahead I think, but not anytime soon. Nimso is also just one person and the Marrow engine was created by a whole team.

[@BillyBob_1177]

@@Dumb_Dash Yeah it's still in it's early days but eventually it will really advanced.

[@CRT_YT]

Dumb_Dash marrow is less polished in a lot of areas ngl. some stuff just feels plain wrong

[@lordpoob]

the biggest flex in the whole video is when you opened the case to find that you had accidentally closed it with two shell casings in it which had not only stayed in the case, but were rolling around realistically and could be swatted away with perfect collision

[@quackiduck2887]

and it was accidental.

[@Heavy_weapons_guy]

This man is the pioneer of good vr physics

[@Bertfolomew]

@@Heavy_weapons_guy well what about slz, bonelab, boneworks both are physics games.

[@Heavy_weapons_guy]

@@Bertfolomew to put it in simple terms, bonelab or bone works puts bandaids over their physics by implementing code. If they have a problem in the physics they just put a code bandaid over it and move on. While nimso is trying to let physics do physics and have it just physic. You can watch Mind Palace Of Madness’s video on Nimso’s project to better understand what I mean.

[@mizoshu3115]

@@Heavy_weapons_guy someone’s been watching “What gives me hope for VR’s future” it’s how I found this guy aswell

[@RB-rf8rf]

What's most impressive to me is how quickly you appear to be able to iterate to a solution for problems which most other devs have failed to solve in many years. You're solving so many completely different problems in what appears to be a relatively short timeframe and that's also a tip of the hat to the engine flexibility you have developed. Super impressive work and you deserve all the success.

[@cannedtoes]

I would say it's because he really has no time restraints/worry for this being an actual GAME yet so that definitely helps, but it is still incredibly impressive. Something like Boneworks/Bonelab was trying to do what he was doing and making a full fledged game at the exact same time but this is levels above in terms of actual physics polish imo

[@Engoneer]

@@cannedtoes you bring some good points

I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT, it was so cool he just did it randomly

[@thoozi2429]

That shit was honestly so clean

[@mrunstoppable5689]

this is the coolest vr physics engine ever

[@snekhuman]

A suggestion with the pistol magazines: It might be easier with the controller collision to have the mags be grabbed from the bottom in a cupping sort of pose. Not only that, but it’s also how people grip them in real life.

[@cendresaphoenix1974]

I've noticed that when you play specific characters those characters head details poke through the camera. Wether you like or dislike this I would like to recommend a system where those details only appear when you look up or down as they slowly float into the screen and out. This way it's not constantly floating in your view out of nowhere but you are more immersed into the characters.

[@NimsoStudios]

There isn't any intentional design there yet. I just took the models as they are and used the ragdoll system. For the proper demo/game I would have custom models that actually support culling the face and accessories. Additional bits like viewable noses or glasses frames would be a system on their own.

[@iikrzii3053]

i've been in the vr scene for 3 years and never seen physics climbing so smooth looking this looks sick and cant wait to see what comes from this

[@scarletbean7434]

Whatever your game ends up becoming, i really hope it'll have a mod sdk, because i would love to make mods and custom levels for a game like this. Love your work nimso :)

[@mapkidd]

same

[@SPONGECOCK111]

I really admire your work in this project. It would be great if the game could simulate in the sword or melee fighting “binding, winding and parrying”techniques from medieval combat, where the strength and weight of the enemy can influence the sword fight. For example, if the enemy is stronger or their weapon is heavier, or his weapon, they could gradually overpower the player's blade if the player’s character is tired or significantly weaker ( and vice versa ). This mechanic would add a realistic layer to the combat, that i havent seem at any vr melee game, like, when it happens, only happens in the enemy, not on the player. I know your game alredy have something like this at certain points.

[@NimsoStudios]

NPCs are built exactly the same as the player, so everything they do will rely on their strength and weight. There's a lot more that needs to be done for NPCs to act in a way that won't be the same as what you might have seen before.

[@TruthIsKey369]

This! A realistic ish sword, axe, club hack n slash game that shows true interaction. Doesn't have to be a VR game, but maybe both. The game engine is so good

[@Notapplicableuser]

⁠@@TruthIsKey369no it’s a game engine and think of everything else you see as a showcase of what you can accomplish. We need it as a Vr game, not no ordinary game because we already have an ordinary games. Once this game engine is complete, we can make so much things

[@Mauser2017]

if that intro was recorded in real time i already have extremely high hopes after seeing the accuracy of the hand tracking

[@monkeysfromvenus]

Hey NimSony, have you thought about uploading some clips to TikTok? I noticed that you started making KZbin shorts, and TikTok seems to get way more engagements for indie devs in comparison. The developer for Wrought Flesh, who also has an active KZbin channel, reported that his TikTok uploads which were just clips from his KZbin were making millions of impressions and bringing lots of people onto his main channel. I'm not a TikTok shill, (I don't even have an account,) I just think it would bring more people on board. This project deserves so much more attention!

[@Wayloz]

3 months till it gets wiped out, unless they decide to sell.

[@brrrt1-1]

This is by far the most impressive VR game engine I have ever seen. Every game in VR is just… rough. Whether your character is clipping through walls or having your magazine phase through your gun every game is riddled with these physics bugs, but your seems so smooth at all times. And even the small things make a big difference like how changing your grip seems effortless compared to Bone lab or Blade and Sorcery or how watching your character start to realistically army crawl instead of having your legs fly around like in many other VR games makes it feel so much more real. I wish you well on your project!

[@salemisjuucy]

A hitman game in VR with these physics would actually be the greatest thing ever, I would throw so much money towards that project.

[@ShadowBonnie]

Even just being able to physically grab and shake someones hand would be incredible. I wish you all the luck and fortune in your development journey.

[@lukefortune8314]

well, the multiplayer is likely fairly easy to implement, but from my experience with physics systems I know that fully simulated interactions with other players is already extremely difficult in conventional multiplayer, and probably even more so in vr. I'm not saying he can't make it work, but it's not likely to work or be available any time soon. most likely the multiplayer will only have very basic player physics interactions, or none at all.

[@Majestic_King_Hunter]

Hi ! I just heard about your work, and I devoured all your videos during the day, it's really an awesome job !

[@darktemp_de]

0:39 Yay, I'm there too! :) I really like your videos and will have fun with the demo in the future :D

[@Brosquini]

okay Ive got some cool ideas which Ill just list. -Cars -Trains -Seats/Seatbelts -Backpacks I think all of these would be really cool, and for cars and that sort of thing you could have it so you can move around in the car until you use the seat belt, and back packs (If you could get cloth working) would be awesome too

[@Brosquini]

Also once you have cars, by extension you could have RVs and trailers or trucks which would be so awesome

[@Brosquini]

Oh also you should make it so when your using the wrong magazine type your gun can jam, it would make it so you have to pull the slide a couple of times to lose the jam

[@johnbush6090]

great work! The buoyancy system looks amazing. Keep it up

[@MrDkirwan]

this is amazing man bless your soul! the gun section reminded me of H3VR, a really good gun simulator

[@yaboycj]

This looks far better then the Marrow engine ever did and at such early stages too. Demo hopefully soon?

[@blockheadhilger9626]

This system is awe inspiring, as someone who has been playing vr for about 7 years this looks to be one of the most amazing frameworks in gaming period. I also wonder, would multiplayer ever be in the cards for this project? If not I’m sure this engine would still be the BEST but I feel as if the potential to experience this with friends would make for a truly breathtaking experience.

[@NimsoStudios]

Thanks for the compliments. The systems involved in this have been improving steadily for about 7 or 8 years also, videos showcasing the early versions of this stuff go back to the start of the channel. It's easier to get an idea of the plan if we separate what's being shown here in to 2 things. The mechanics and everything under the hood I've called the Hybrid Engine. The game itself is currently named ProjectTX but that's just the working title, it might change. For this first game, I want to keep these raw mechanics, really showing how much intrigue and fun can come from the nature of these mechanics, though it'll still be a proper game, a relatively simple storyline and simple progression from start to finish. The Hybrid engine is a pretty big collection of systems but I want to keep pushing it further. I plan on licensing it at least in parts to make these standards usable outside of just my own games. Multiplayer will be possible in future, but I will be making more games after this one to start implementing those extensions to the engine.

keep working on your goal, this is awsome

[@xXSLUGGERXx]

And also I think it would be cool if you made guns to where they actually had a holster to where you have to slide it down. Kind of like how you did your mag So you could slide your gun down until it clicks.

[@watesub4517]

Literally a banger in a game development universe

[@xXSLUGGERXx]

Add a feature to where if you're holding down trigger on a gun that is not primed or has no ammo you're able to Rag doll it pretty much allowing you to rotate it forward and to let you add velocity so you can spin the gun just something that I thought would be cool.

[@ScareFire]

For the physics of the guns, you may want to ask some advices from the master of physical vr guns: Anton who’s made H3VR

idea for force-grabbing: hold trigger to select and “lock onto” something, and then hold grip aswell to pull it

[@Breakneck-C4]

i know this is one of many ideas, but in the future you should make custom inventory positions, like you open up the options panel and a mannequin pops out or something and you can move the places were you put guns and stuff. kinda like the cosmetics for steam vr, also you prob already had this in mind but custom gun and mag offsets when you reload guns might be cool.

"oh i alredy have a gun" 2# gun proseds to levitate in front of you, Please keep it

[@NimsoStudios]

I use the same button for pocket activation and energy grab, and I don't currently have any head direction checks, so if there's no pocket access the gun will fall and immediately entered energy grab area while I pulled my hand away.

[@ltskitzune6766]

Hey Nimso! I have a suggestion for further enhancing the dual wielding mechanics of your game! The proper way to do a dual wielding reload in real life is to drop the mags from both pistols, then transition the pistol in your offhand over to your dominant hand, so that you are holding both pistols side by side in one hand. Then you grab two magazines with your left hand in the spaces between your thumb, index finger, and middle finger, then guide the two magazines into the two pistols in your other hand at the same time. If you could incorporate a system that allows you to attach the pistol in one hand to the side of another pistol facing away from the palm it is being held in, so that it is "grabbed" and remains stationary and a way to grab two magazines side by side with the other hand, kind of like H3VR's mag palming system, (you could also disable grabbing two magazines if you have two different kinds of pistols in one hand, so you would need to index two different magazine types, and might need to do two grabbing and loading operations for both pistols) that would easily make your game the best dual wielding VR experience in existence. The closest thing you can get to a system like this in other games like bonelab is to balance one pistol on top of the other, and grab and insert a single magazine two times. This can be fairly practical with some practice, but you can still only do it when standing still, because the moment you start moving, the balanced pistol will fall away, and sometimes bringing a magazine into proximity with the magwell of a loaded pistol may cause it to automatically eject the loaded pistol's magazine, which is super aggravating. H3VR's mag palming system helps with this to some extent, but it is still super janky trying to insert both magazines at the same time and often, you'll end up just inserting both magazines one at a time. It would be a dream come true to see this incorporated into your game. I have been wanting to see this done properly in a VR game for such a long time now. Not even once in any video game have I ever seen a faithful representation of a tandem pistol reload. Thanks a bunch!

[@softsharp8265]

I have a suggestion for your videos. I noticed that when you are aiming your gun. Your non-dominant eye is being tracked through the lens. Therefore when you look down a reticle it looks different from what you're seeing when you're playing your game. I would suggest looking to see if you can record out of the other lens to match up with your dominant eye. Lots of people are right-eyed dominant but they're capture software captures their left eye.😊

[@IamtheWV17]

Guessing this is what he's seeing with the magazine round count as well... the numbers aren't 'going through' he's just seeing them with his dominant eye.

[@NimsoStudios]

@IamtheWV17 Really. No, the text in VR is rendering right through the objects including walls. The reason that it's set to Left Eye is because even if I change it every time I press play it resets to Left Eye.

[@IamtheWV17]

@NimsoStudios twas just a theory. Figured it might be like a red dot, superimposed by the dominant eye.

[@zoldenmkbm7841]

this is THE best vr physics system for any game this is miles better then boneworks and bone lab i really wanna play this

[@WakoDoodle]

I can't begin to imagine how many cool game modes or levels that could be made with this engine! Especially if it was a game like TF2, since that game has both weapons and crazy fan maps where you can see players chilling by a beach or trying to platform for secrets. But that's just one example of infinite possibilities!

[@pzxel]

Yoo! Nice intro!

[@doctorduck2000]

I noticed (specifically at 11:30) that with the magazine ejections, the magazine seems to stick for a bit to the bottom of the gun before falling. Not sure if you know of this problem or not, but I hope it can be easily fixed, since this project looks insanely promising, even in its current state.

[@NimsoStudios]

Yeah I mentioned it in the video. I have some solutions for that.

[@maximilianklinger2712]

Cant wait to use those recoil mechanics, actually having to care how to hold the gun.

[@FlooferLand]

You should make it so any object that accelerates up when under the transporty pipe gets pulled up. Would let the player jump up the pipe instead of having to press a button! Could even let the player throw in items to throw them to a platform at the top or something

[@NimsoStudios]

It currently pushes anything within the pipe up while active. Technically you can stand on any object going up, but while you're in the pipe it will be pushing the player up anyway. These are just simple things I did for testing what's possible with the physics setup. In the final game I'll have plenty of physics puzzles and mechanical structures to fiddle with.

[@fashvr9961]

I believe this engine is going to make you very rich
