Didn't realize "VR Legs" were a thing...

I've been so excited, I bought a pretty cheap Acer wmr headset "new" off ebay to try out VR ATS. I raced home after work to set it up, had to race to walmart to get a displayport to hdmi, then struggle with settings and downloads to get ATS to actually load.

1st Issue: Fluttering or jittery distant objects. I initially though the nauseousness I was feeling was due to this. I typically play with the settings "maxed" with my pc (AMD Raedon 5600G, RX6600). Was able to fix it, more-or-less, by dropping settings down to medium, in-game scaling to 100%, and setting the config scaling to 1.3.

2nd and main issue: I quickly figured out the gut-wrenching feeling was just being in VR. The most vomit-inducing scenarios are left/right turns at intersections and stopping. It's not so much the looking around at the intersection that bothers me as the turning and not feeling the "g's" I think. Also same with stopping, not actually feeling the vehicle coming to a stop makes me ill. Also, slightly panic inducing thinking I'm still creeping into the intersection.

After a little googling it seems like I made a rookie mistake of playing a game with a lot of motion without ever having used vr. I'm a little disappointed, but hopfully my "VR Legs" are quick to form. The bright side is if you're interested in trying VR on a budget, a lot of the Acer and other Windows Mix Reality headsets can be found pretty cheap on ebay (50 to 60 bucks). The downside is that the support for them either has ended, or will end fairly soon. You'll also want to invest in a high quality puke bucket. 🤢
