SLR App needs premium account to use?

[GameGrumps1]

Ok, so has this “premium only” thing not gone live then or can we still do what we normally do with a basic “non premium” account?

Because I have not been subbed for awhile and I was able to play videos locally with the PC version and send the script to the handy and have it work. I tested this video videos and scripts I had bought from SLR and with other videos and scripts not from SLR. Both worked.

So is this just all one big misunderstanding because the SLR guy is going full retard?

I have been subbing for a while now… i just want dlna back. I don’t exclusively watch slr content and scripts on my quest. Is there any other way to play local videos/scripts with a quest 2?

@Dukeslancer

Then again if it’s ture what you say… technically all you need is to sub one time snd you get unlimited access? Then why not do what i said and put a one time price on the app? Is that not the same thing?

If what I said is correct then yeah I agree it would have avoided lots of disagreements to just say “buying a funscript gives unlimited access to slr haptics connect and deovr handy integration without the needing an active subscription” right from the get go. Maybe putting a price on the app would be tricky to integrate with premium subs

@Dukeslancer

Definitely not working i have a friend with an old premium account where he purchased about 5 interactive videos and scripts. Loading in the latest slr app version. Everything logs in correctly and toy is recognized in the video via bt blue icon but not working. I believe there is a post in this thread they are working on that issue but time will tell i guess?

I’ve got a premium sub so can’t test but fingers crossed they’ll get it fixed soon. Other slr employees have confirmed (in the handy discord) that funscripts should still work locally and in xbvr for people that have previously purchased scripts

I’m a little confused comments here. From my experience you just need a premium account to play scripts, but it does not have to have an active sub. So no monthly fees…

[liqsliduex]

Just tested it, if you previously had a sub and got scripts through the subscription (i.e. have not actually bought a script outside of the sub) you cannot use HapticConnect

[Endlessdream]

Strange mine is working…When you bought the scripts, did you download them and put in the interactive folder?

This convo has been fairly civil so far
Just want to remind people to not attack/demean others

[doublevr]

Why won’t you take that both options are equally functional.

Pay per script is rather a hack that we don’t officially promote.

[doublevr]

Agreed

[doublevr]

I guess we can extend the policy to “Premium users and 30 days expired users”. Please let me know.

I can’t believe you guys, the DeoVR was free for so long that there is no reason to complain if they want to monetize their efforts.

And as already mentioned by @doublevr in the other thread you can unlock full potential of the player by buying 1 script. Not sure if it’s a one time payment or you need to buy script a month but the cheapest scripts you can get are $0.99. This one for example:

Santa's Naughty List; solo striptease tattoos holiday lingerie

The other alternatives are:

• $3.99 - Whirlgig + Scriptplayer (requires PC)

• $29.99 - Heresphere + Scriptplayer (requires PC, but the dev is working on Handy integration too which is nice)

[doublevr]

Thx. It’s one time

[bullybull]

I am new here, still using gearvr. I know it is no longer supported, but gearvr still can use DEOVR with handy right? For streaming and local? I don’t mind if there are no new features.

And you said we can unlock full fuctionality of the player if we buy 1 script? What about new user? Do I need to at least subscribe for premium once first and then buy a script to have be able to use the player with Handy forever? Because I don’t see sign up for free account?

Hi Bullybull,

Welcome to the site. The older Deo VR still works with handy for streaming via DLNA and local.

In regards to the functionality if you buy a script you get access. While you cant create a free account as such when you choose the script you want and click on the price the payment page will give you the option to create a username and password. This then creates you an account and lets you download the script and use the player.

I dont work for SLR so I cant guarantee that the current version of DeoVR on the gear will work forever but it does work at the moment I believe.

[bullybull]

Thanks quiffed1, I have tested your suggestion and confirmed that it works to play local files if you buy any script. I am using GEARVR with DeoVR app anyway.

@doublevr I hope you are not too discouraged that a lot of users use this method to use the app instead of subscription. In my case I only use VR once in a while and sometimes never use VR for 1-2 months so subscribing is not for me so I ended buying some scripts from SLR. Right now I am using Handy more with 2D vids anyway. I am sure users who see the value of your streaming service will keep subscribing. Maybe when I buy Quest 2 and use VR more I will try subscription.
