So, I still have a Meta 2 which I play VRC standalone on. Problem is that light particles, among other things, and the Meta 2 do not mix with the headset experiencing heavy lag when staring in its general direction. Anyone have any fixes outside of getting a new headset or plugging into a computer?

Thanks.

I would say look in the graphical settings of the game and see if there is some settings you can tweak to reduce lag.

I don’t own a Quest 2 personally, but maybe there is also some internal things to do like improve performance, limit the other apps that could be running, stuff like that.

Hope you can find a way
