Beat saber

you have to click on the Imagine dragons things on the top right to get to their songs (or click on ALL songs)

when you load the game only the pack 1 songs are shown, you need to select which ones you want (there are 3 packs) and some "Extra" ones like Imagine dragons
 
Any tips on adding custom songs? I have installed BMBF but when I click the download icon on a song, nothing happens (though in the background, if you check notifications, it just says it failed at downloading the song).

Edit - @lokiss Quest 2 sorry. Going the manual route then, thanks.

Edit - it's weird. It suddenly started working in the app, I went into playlists and that seemed to kick it into action. Confirmed they installed by checking Beat Saber, back to BMBF and the same problem happens again. 2 minutes later and I can add them again lol. Now I just need to find some good custom songs.

PCVR, or Quest.

You can just manually download the maps, then just dump them in game folder through sidequest or the data folder on the pc. Use bmbf to sync to tracks on the quest.
 
i take it it goes without saying there is no way to save high scores with friends with the sidequest version? a shame as there are a few of us with the game and would be nice to have a little friends list league table (I dont even know if you can do that on the legit version TBH )
 
You can do it with the included songs (on the highscore table to the right when you're looking at song details, you can choose to only include friends (from memory, it's a silhouette of three heads).
But for custom songs it only retains your own highscore, you can't compare to anyone else.

I take it you are talking the legit vresion now without the sidequest shizzle... because ever since i modded it I get an "error connecting to database" when trying to get scores. i assumed this is by design due to being unofficial after it is modded.

indeed this is the biggest thing making me think about getting rid once xmas is over and going back to vanilla, but if there is a way to get it to connect again then so much the better
 
i can do Beat Saber on Expert now :D

but there is one part, i think im probably going about it all wrong

You know half way through, the blocks appear on your left then right then left, in TWOS, so you have to swipe left (red high, blue low) then Immediately swipe right with Red low, blue High, then swipe left again, red high with blue low

i literally swing at them and I've tried to watch some YT on this and it looks like im doing it wrong (less effective) ?
 
I don't think there is any "most effective" method. I have watched a few Youtube videos too and they all play differently.

Find your own most effective way of playing and stick with it. The game is all about muscle memory.

IF you have a limited range of movement or don't have full range of motion in your wrist/arm/shoulder then it might be worth while playing with the Rotation of the sabers in the settings. For myself, I have very poor range of motion in my left wrist and it was making it extremely hard to hit notes at certain angles and heights. So yesterday I started messing about with the settings. I now have the sabers pointed up a lot more. It made big difference!! I am getting better scores now and have done nearly all the first section of songs on expert where I couldn't finish most of them before this.

Play around with those settings yourself. You shouldn't have to over extend yourself to reach notes, and if you find you are doing this, then changing these settings might help.

I realise how silly this looks with the picture but it might help to try and relax and let your arms flow/circle back like below rather than ridged lines back and forth between the two sides.
