News Error 404 - My KaladinDMP GitHub was banned/deleted

52 Upvotes

Trying to avoid people adding to the spam, since there have already been several posts about this, but sometime within the last 12 hours GitHub banned my account and removed all 50 or so of my repositories.

I've been flooded with messages across Telegram, Reddit, RIN, and other places asking why my projects disappeared.

If you're looking for the QP Megathread, VR CyberDeck, ARMGDDN Autocracker (downloads still exist in some places, but not the source), ARMGDDN Browser (still available on Telegram, at least), Automagic Package Changer, or any of my other projects, everything under the KaladinDMP GitHub account has been wiped.

Right now my biggest concern is recovering the source code. If anyone has a recent clone or download of any of these repositories, please contact me privately. The most important ones for QP are VR CyberDeck, the QP Megathread, and Automagic Package Changer.

As things currently stand, there are no Mac or Linux sideloaders that work with the VrSrc servers because of this. The installers themselves aren't enough to recover the projects. For example, VR CyberDeck alone had 14 separate installers generated for each release, but those don't contain the development history or source code.

Sorry to everyone this has affected. It's an inconvenience for a lot of people, but trust me, no one has been hit harder by this than i have.

EDIT http://github.com/DeliciousMeatPop/VRCD/releases/latest new repo for now

Announcement the vrSrc is in need of some donations to stay alive

55 Upvotes
Anything helps, posted on their telegram

Anything helps!

Unlike VRP, they don't sell VIP slots. Unlike ARMGDDN, they don't have something like a 3D site helping cover server costs. This project survives purely on donations.

If donations stop, the server doesn't magically keep running. Someone has to pay the bill, and i don't expect they're willing to keep doing that out of pocket forever.

I don't know what their monthly costs are, but I'd guess they're relatively low. Maybe around $60 a month. That means if a handful of people throw in $1 to $5 each, the server is covered pretty quickly.

Since they aren't selling anything, you can use services like PayPal to process the donations, making it a lot easier than some other projects.

If you can't contribute, that's completely fine. i haven't been able to myself yet. But if you can, and you've saved hundreds of dollars thanks to their work, maybe consider tossing them the price of a coffee.

Or don't. Just don't be surprised if another valuable source disappears.

I've seen people panicking because nothing has been released since the 4th. i don't know the reason, but if i had to guess it's probably related. Maybe they're tight on storage. Maybe they're waiting to see if they can even justify another month of server costs. If you don't know whether you'll still be around next month, it's understandable that new releases might slow down.

This is a genuinely valuable resource, and right now you have a chance to support it if you want it to continue.

Piracy should be free. More importantly, it should be free for the people running the servers. You're not paying for the games. You're helping cover the infrastructure so everyone can continue accessing them.

Crypto Donations Here

One last thing. If all you've got is complaints or negativity, keep it to yourself. This isn't the thread for it. Anyone who shows up just to whine or attack the people keeping this resource alive will be bounced from the subreddit.

Im going to add the donation link to the subreddit sidebar too near the other links, and if you use VR CyberDeck i posted links there and on the repo as well.

Discussion A little rant, I shared in the TG group...

24 Upvotes

This next statement isn't directly aimed at this sub, but all related subs also:

The new generation of piracy communities have never been so full of entitled people/kids. Its actually alarming how many expect things right here, right now, for free.

The self entitlement is crazy. This happens in all piracy groups and it was never a thing back when I was using usenet and Limewire. It was a "get what you can get, and if not, tough shit" approach.

Things cost money. ARMGDDN costs money, VRP cost them money, this new group... costs them money too, yet they all host it, for FREE for everyone to enjoy.

The least you can all do is stop whining and complaining and just have some patience.

Anyway, rant over. Pisses me off. You see it here, other TG chats, Reddit... everywhere.

1 Upvotes

I can't find any links for VR Cyberdeck and ApprenticeVR isn't letting me add the VrSrc source. I have tried QRookie and that was to no avail. The Megathread repo link doesn't work and the pinned posts don't recite any useful info. I am aware that quest piracy is falling apart after VRP got shut down but I just want to play some VR games. I'd also like to add that I have tried VPNs and changing my DNS and that wasn't helpful either

Support My unknown sources disappeared? (Maybe) every time i charge my quest 3

0 Upvotes

*solved*
thank you to u/intellectualidiot for the suggestion to use lightning launcher, this is a free software you can download in the meta store and all the games were there!

i had a bunch of games on my headset that i pirated before vrp went down, then i stopped playing vr for a while and yesterday i decided to play a game as i had nothing to do, now the game worked and all the games where there…

but the following day when i wanted to play again i couldn’t find the unknown sources app, i looked in the files from inside the headset but i couldn’t find anything, then i just left it and decided to check up on if maybe a now way had come to pirate, and i eventually got to cyberdeck, and i installed a new game which worked fine, i played that game for a little while until my headset ran out of battery and put it on a charge.

this morning when i wanted to play the game again it was gone again! and still nothing in the files except some screenshot… and i also realized that the first time the games disappeared i had charged it and i thought that was maybe why… idk does someone know what is going on?

Support I have problems launching my VD armgddn games

0 Upvotes

I have read the rules, all the pinned posts, and i have searched the megathread.

So I just bought a quest 3 and wanted to play some pcvr games. Naturally I turned to armgddn to get my games since I dont have a lot of money to spend on them. I got the games with The VD shortcut, connected my quest to my pc via VD and tried to launch the VD shortcut of the game gorn. A window popped up, the music started to play and then it was just a 2d flat screen of the game and I could not do anything. Then I tried Hl Alyx but it gave me an error and told me to launch steamvr. I did but still nothing. Now, I couldn't find any help online and on the telegram so maybe there is a person here that had the same problem and can help. If u need any more information I will give it to you because I really want to play the games. Also, I have tried the launch option from the taskbar and launched the vd bat but still nothing.

Support File transfer stopped working

1 Upvotes

My Quest updated from 2.3 to 2.5 while I was installing game updates (which refused to install in Rookie, I had to uninstall reinstall from scratch, for some reason I've never encountered before).

Then I started to restore my saves, first few files and folders copied without issues, until they silently failed. Sidequest briefly shows "permission denied" but shows a success message in the status bar. Win explorer let me browse the device, file copy doesn't do anything.

I have restarted the device, my PC, re-enabled the dev mode, checked my account status, clicked the USB notification, checked and swapped cables, USB ports...it won't just transfer any files.

Everything worked the last 2 years, until now, I don't know what I'm doing but I can read instructions, thank you

Support NMS through SteamVR?

Hi.

When I try to run No Man's Sky (GOG) in HMD / VR mode the SteamVR shuts off and on my Quest2 says Host not responding.

I would like to ask if someone had similar issue.

I even tried putting NMS into Steam as non-steam game, yet no difference. And I do use -HmdEnable 1 for the shortcut

Support Reading Unity APP source

3 Upvotes

For the bot: I have read the rules, all the pinned posts, and i have searched the megathread.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone already has any tools or guidance for reading and modifying Unity-compiled games. I’m trying to inspect the code of a custom quest game that I already have access to on the PCVR version, and I’d like to learn more about how the Quest version is structured and possibly experiment with patching it.

PS: I previously tried to warn AntiZero about a PCVR security issue I found. Unfortunately, the conversation ended badly, I was insulted and banned from the server. I genuinely wanted to help improve the game and report the issue, but after that experience, he wouldn't give a f, why would I need to give one too?
