we should bring back oculus homes
we should bring back oculus homes
(you heard me)
unfortunately meta killed homes in 2023 because ol' zuckyburg does not care about rift and it's users anymore (source )
as everyone has already stated, we miss rift homes (justice to people who didnt use it but i digress) and we wish we can revisit our homes, but what if........ (i'm no savvy to this)
- someone found an old file of rift homes that contained the application to it
- figure out the DNS (if so)
- make a community server and reroute it back to the one made by the community server instead of meta's.
ofc i know this might cost money to do something like that but we just wanna revisit our homes and talk to our friends again, and customise rift avatars, and that's something that would be done in the foreseeable future if someone purposefully brung back rift home.
but i don't think that'll happen as it would take months and even years to do something like that, but i hope someone does it and figure out a way to bring back oculus homes.
"why not use SteamVR home?" given with how old it is it's broken to the bare minimum, rooms no longer and you can't join any of your friends's rooms (as someone who tried rooms in september 2024)
"it's never going to happen" have faith, that's why i said "in the future"
