I knew when I was close to getting the Giant Mech and Black Horse upgrades since I would be notified within the game itself.  But I do not see mention in the game about Horse Whisperer, Jelly Donuts and so on, how do those work?

Are you in for lots of palm trees, and a beautiful lake to ride around? This 60 km ride takes you around the lake of Tiberias (or Galilea) through the Jordan Valley, with the Gollan Heights in the distance.
Keen to hear what you think of this ride.

This would be so awesome! Done in a way like the game Ultrawings! Or better yet, a new game featuring a cockpit view and a typical 3rd person view like you can do with cycling.

Hi Team VZFit,

As always, can't say enough about the app! 

I'm providing some suggestions for additions I think would be great to have (if possible)

1. Add rankings of the weekly event you're participating in, like the head2head rankings. I know there is a separate page for events, showing the entire calendar and current rankings, though I think it would also be great to list just the rankings in your personal stats and only if participating in it. 

2. The ability to see how many users are online, via the app and website. 
  2a. Send IMs or requests to ride or game?

3.  Team-based events, I know this is an obvious one and already been discussed to a degree but would be so awesome to have so putting it lol. There are so many people that participate in these, if we set team registration for a time in advance and fill it in advance that may help with the whole waiting for someone to be online to join? Maybe even have backup slots for no-shows?

I've seen increased posts and interest in the SDK lately...

I myself have been going deep inside the game development rabbit hole recently and would like to refocus my efforts on Virzoom games and experiences.

Is anyone interested in something like this? A group to.share ideas, tips and tricks, ask and answer questions, etc.

Maybe a discord group? A subforum on this site? An email list? Something else?

Thoughts / interest / ideas / agreements / disagreements?

I'm tired of spending 30 minutes in the "play alone until another player joins" mode. Some ideas I could think of to suggest:

- Allow free tier users to compete. If that's too much to give away free, maybe allow them to join only if a paid user is waiting, or only during events. 

- At least one head-to-head game "event" per day, just so people know when they are more likely to find an opponent.

- Display the head-to-head game leaderboard somewhere more prominent (e.g. side panel when the main menu is shown in the Play app) to get people motivated to play.

Who's with me on this? Any other ideas?

I'm working on a VR project for the Oculus Go. The application will be displaying a 360 degree video from a bicycle ride so elderly who need to move to stay healthy or people who need some distraction while they are cycling can cycle using a pedal trainer (cycle while sitting on a chair).

To stimulate people to keep cycling i want to add a functionality where the game will pause after a short amount of time if they stop cycling or come beneath a certain threshold. I want to use the VZFIT SDK to connect a VirZoom Speedometer to my VR application. This SDK offers a lot more functionality than i need and i can't figure out how to implement the functionality i want.

Summarized

• I want to use a static VR camera (preferably the OVRCameraRig from the Oculus Integration Library) to allow the user to look around in a static position where the video moves through them creating the illusion of moving. 
  
  
• I want to be able to read the InputSpeed from the VZController and display this value on the screen
  
  
• I want to pause the game if the speed drops below (lets say) 5kmh for more than 5 seconds
  
  
• I want to continue the game if they start cycling again and reach above 5kmh
  

I noticed in the "Our next update" thread that you are working on "Support for FTMS trainers, possibly with resistance control".

Can you tell me which trainer the Devs are using for testing this? I've been thinking about getting a Smart trainer and I would like to consider getting the same one they are using.

I'm not promising I'll get the same one I'd just like to be able to consider that as a factor.

Hello everyone,

I have enjoyed using VZFit but find that I use it less on my stationary bike as I would have hoped.  I spend most of my day at a desk, and have always thought it would be great to use VZFit with my under-desk elliptical while on breaks.  I am overweight enough that using a stationary bike causes some pain because of how my knees have to bowl out a bit.

I use a Cubii under-desk unit like this:


Unfortunately, there is not enough clearance to place the sensor on the part that rotates, but I noticed that the shaft the pedals hook up to does have a bolt that rotates.  I super-glued a strong magnet onto my sensor and placed it on the rotating bolt.





This worked and I am now able to use VZ Fit at my desk using the elliptical.  I do not know if the RPMs of the bolt match a similar RPM as if I were pedalling, so I am not sure of the ramifications on the changes to my data.  I was also worried that the magnet may cause issues with the sensor but so far things seem to work well.

I have used a strong enough magnet that it also works well on my regular bike now too attaching the sensor right to the arm w/ the magnet.

How do you create custom routes in VZ explorer?
