This video i want anybody to take this video as just me giving you my experience if you have sleep paralysis like me and you’re trying to get a cure go to a doctor do not take anything i say in this video as any form of medical information or anything it’s not that

This is just my experience now seven months ago i made a video where i talked about sleeping in minecraft for a month right where i passed out i slept into it to give you the full context of the story this is like a three-part series so basically the entire thing began some

Of the best content on my channel comes out as a mistake and in this case i was playing minecraft on the playstation vr one time on twitch i laid down in my comfy bed and i passed out looking at this minecraft stars now ladies and gentlemen i passed out for like 20 30

Minutes and i woke up in the world of minecraft So like some of your favorite animes like sword art online or dot hack i woke up in my mmo world i don’t know if you actually do you wake up i haven’t watched the dot hack anime i just played the game but ladies and gentlemen i woke up and basically minecraft matrix okay

Now ever since that happy accident i decided to double down on my experiment and so i bought pc virtual reality i basically got minecraft set up and i started using shaders to sleep in minecraft now to understand ladies and gentlemen the first thing i want to get

Down into is why does my minecraft look so good in order to make myself more immersed i use ray tracing shaders at this point minecraft is the most graphically demanding game that i play on my computer okay and i’m not joking about that minecraft itself isn’t exactly a graphically intensive i mean

Seriously anybody can run it on any modern computer but when you invite shaders into the mix which are basically tool sets that actually enhance the minecraft engine by adding shadows by adding new lighting by adding various graphical effects that were never in the engine beforehand and in one case the

Most computationally expensive one that i use is pat tracing global illumination by sonic ether now at this point i ended up going to his patreon and paying for about a month to download these shaders and then i ended up cancelling my subscription later a lot of it is just

The the whole patreon doesn’t get updated too much but i don’t want to jump into that or throw that much shade i also went to um soa for texture packs which basically uh this is more of like a screenshot based texture pack uh if you look at some of these uh video clips

You can see that it’s very modernish very white uh some of the concrete that your materials that you’re seeing over here look actually like it looks pretty good and in some cases if you look at footage of it you might actually you know mistake it for

Reality in some case i mean not really the fact that it’s overly saturated is a dead giveaway but you get the point combining texture packs resource packs and shader packs in amongst all of these combinations you can end up getting a minecraft that looks light years ahead

Of what it ever looked like now the cost of this is this is incredibly computationally expensive now these aren’t the only shaders on the block there are various other creators that have their own implementations these are the ones that i use now to understand the important part of sleeping in

Virtual reality is with these shaders is that you have to have a high enough frame rate and you have to have a good enough resolution for all of this to be worth it if the resolution is too low the actual virtual reality looks incredibly fuzzy

And if the frame rate is too low well you’re just asking to throw up in that virtual reality world see the whole point of virtual reality is you have to have constant fluidity frame rate issues complicate that so the way that i ended up achieving this was i ended up running

The game at a low resolution and then upscaling it through you know third party upscalers and then getting a somewhat clean image it wasn’t perfect there are problems but for the most part and for my case it’s good enough see by running the game at a low resolution and

Upscaling it i’m able to get proper playable frame rates which is basically all i need to achieve this now at the end of the day this isn’t the only ray tracer like i said minecraft has official ray tracing in the form of nvidia’s rtx now rtx is a technology

That you’ve probably heard of if you’re in the graphic sphere a lot of big budget games like cyberpunk 2077 use it and regardless of what we can say about that game one thing is for sure running that game on max settings with ray tracing enabled is light years ahead of

Any other game right now as far as i can go it just looks great now how ray tracing works in this case or patch tracing global illumination is basically light will bounce across any obstacle that you see now this creates data right and this data can be used to simulate

Audio simulate visual effects like ray tracing shadows or ray tracing reflections and various things up until a few years ago this was like undoable okay nobody was going down this path now with nvidia graphic cards and amd graphic cards these gpus have ray tracing elements built onto them

Which makes doing a lot of these computations a lot easier in the long run now in the case of the sonic ether shaders that i’m using there is no benefit from the graphic cards hardware ray tracers to assist this that’s because the implementation used here does not benefit from the ray tracing

Cores from any of these gpus now if you use nvidia’s rtx minecraft yeah then it gets a full benefit but because that’s a bedrock version of minecraft modifying it becomes a chore running vr on it becomes a chore so there’s like trade-offs to how you implement virtual

Reality and ray tracing what i’m showing you is a version that works for me however it’s not perfect when i first got this running i was looking at frame rates around 10 to 15 which is in which isn’t even playable okay it’s not even on the league of being playable so what

I had to do was really sit down optimize setting by setting and find that sweet spot if you will where the game was playable and once i achieved that high enough frame rate i was able to slip on a virtual reality headset and actually play with it now as far as virtual

Reality headsets go this is its own rabbit hole to go down now to understand a virtual reality headset will cost you a few hundred dollars so this becomes somewhat of an expensive hobby now if you’re going to buy a computer that’s going to run ray tracing that already

Costs you a fair penny but to have a good virtual reality headset that’s going to cost you some money as well too now i’m using a oculus rift s and i understand it’s all facebook and everything but i run everything through a virtual machine anyways it’s not like

It’s the end of the world all all zuckerbergs getting out of me is the fact that i play minecraft and i sleep in it for hours at a time and i’m not really that worried however going back to the whole you know headset argument you can go and get yourself a valve

Index you can get yourself a of what is what it’s called the htc vives from valve and if you want there are plenty of windows wmr headsets like windows mixed reality i think there’s a good hp one that’s out too honestly in this case i would recommend really researching a

Good headset okay because it’s going to cost you a few hundred hundreds of dollars of anyways so at this point you really need to sit down and do some of the research for yourself okay and that’s pretty much where i’m gonna leave it once you have a good enough

Computer and you have a good enough headset for all of this you can then start to implement these ray tracing effects and start doing what i do but i actually have a couple of alternates alternate things that you can do alternate games where you can get the same effect for

Far less of the computational costs that i’m going through again this is like an extreme end ray tracing vr minecraft to sleep in is something that only extreme idiots like me do there are smarter ways to handle this and we’ll get to that towards the tail end of this video

Minecraft goes from a simple block game to basically reality okay the closest you’re gonna get to like reality right now in vr okay in my opinion at least now ladies and gentlemen i used a combination of all this and building my own minecraft mansions with my own

Little universe and basically i put the headset on at night i lay in bed and i passed out now to understand the visuals help me but the minecraft soundtrack also helps me too and given the fact that i tied the games like timer to my system time i wake up as if it’s

Literally following a real day you know what i mean like my eyes open i see the sun coming through my minecraft mansion i go to bed i see the stars above that’s how i sleep and then i also set the game to run and rain because rain is always

Helping out when it comes to sleeping anyways now the reason i did all this is this is dramatically in my experience reduce the amount of sleep paralysis that i get so for those of you don’t know what sleep paralysis is i suffer it a lot okay like i used to really get

Really bad attacks so i’ve been going through this nightmare for years basically what sleep paralysis is is your body is kind of like in this state where you’re sleeping but you’re also partially awake so you know that you’re awake you know that you have consciousness but you just can’t like

Move your arms and legs it’s difficult in my experience moving my arms and legs you try but you can’t you are completely paralyzed from the neck down it is a scary situation what makes it even scarier than that though is let’s assume that since you’re dreaming of course

Since you’re in that halfway state your dreams start to permeate your sleep paralysis so you might have heard things like my sleep paralysis demon or people talking about the situation so i’ll give you a good example a very common example if i’m laying on my chest which is

Usually how i fall asleep anyways right it’s a 50 50 toss-up whether i’m on my back or i’m on my chest depending on how wild the night got before what’ll happen is if i’m on my chest during a sleep paralysis attack i get the notion and feeling that okay i can’t

Move my arms and legs or anything i’m starting to hear weird stuff it kind of sounds like cctv footage and then i feel fingers on the back of my neck now immediately i’m thinking oh boy i’m going to get my neck snap like sam fisher okay it’s not going to be a good

Time to understand that’s the nightmare that i’ve gone with now to to also re-clarify it’s also the reason why i have some of these dark circles around my eyes i’m not that good with sleep i’m actually scared of sleeping a lot of times of course it’s also genetics as

Well you know god bless being indian a lot of us with the sunken eye look it’s just it’s common as [ __ ] over there but ladies and gentlemen that’s generally the nightmare that i’ve went with and ever since i’ve been sleeping in minecraft for months on end

I have not been going through as many sleep paralysis attacks to understand it still happens from time to time however where it used to be like every other night or even some cases almost every night it now has become a situation for me where i’m only getting it every like

Four or five days basically once a week at this point i think i’ll never be free from this situation there’s just something wrong with me this is something that i have to live with but the fact that i’ve lessened it in my opinion in my experience to this degree

Has already given me a new lease on life i feel way better already now that i can actually sleep without that fear of like going into a paralysis state okay yeah it’ll still happen but it’s at least it’s not as common as it ever once was

Now i have to attribute this to my radically different minecraft sleeping regimen and i’m actually going to start weaning off of it ladies and gentlemen i think six months is long enough i initially thought that i was going to make a sleeping in minecraft for a year

Video but i don’t think it’s ever going to get to that ladies and gentlemen and a lot of that has to do with the fact that i just recently moved to this place now ever since i moved something to really note and understand is i had to break that that nightly ritual of

Sleeping in minecraft mostly because when i was moving i got rid of my gaming computer setup i had it packed and set up and to move to this house and so that broke everything now ever since i’ve done that i ever since i moved into this place i started to re-sleep in minecraft

I started to bring back that ritual but like all things i’m gonna wean it off you know if i don’t need it i don’t need it and honestly i don’t think it’s entirely healthy to be sleeping with a screen connected to your eyeballs now with all of that said ladies and

Gentlemen one game that i really should have mentioned all this time was instead of minecraft there’s also other things like vr chat if you’ve never used vr chat basically the idea is you can connect to a bunch of like social services like social spaces like clubs you know like parks whatever you can

Imagine people have made on vr chat it’s also less graphically demanding and it’ll get the job done i actually because of the entire lockdown and pandemic one of the coolest things that vrchat has allowed me to do is socialize with people i’ve literally had watch parties on this entire application there

Was one night where i watched the movie hackers with angelina jolie with a bunch of other nerds through vr chat and it was a fun honest wholesome experience honestly i look at vr not as a gaming method like i don’t really like playing games on vr just because i don’t really

Like to interact that much i mean i usually play jrpgs anyways and none of them are really in virtual reality i look at vr as sort of a way to explore worlds or communicate with other individuals i mentioned dot hack as an anime and i honestly imagine once this

Technology becomes more portable and becomes more efficient then maybe we’ll see a day where we’ll actually be able to utilize virtual reality in a much more like easy to use manner i mean imagine if these goggles and these head mounted devices become a lot more easier to wear and again way more affordable

Right now their prices are through the roof and again i wouldn’t recommend this as a medical alternative at all none of this should be taken as medical information you should always consult medical professionals to ask them what you should do about sleep paralysis really any medical you know thing that’s

Going on in your life i will say this is a positive experience for me this worked for me again that’s just for me now ladies and gentlemen i i think there’s also a case to be made with virtual reality that i think should be looked into i don’t know if

This is being looked into right now from a medical perspective but the concept of therapy and just you know general like i don’t know just general healing would be an interesting method to look at with virtual reality i recently watched a video of a mother who actually lost

Their child who reconnected with them through virtual reality i mean all of it was of course fake but you know at some point when you have a situation like that it it may actually provide some level of closure i mean honestly a video like that brought tears to my eyes i don’t

Want to dig that hard into it but it really got me thinking about how virtual reality is headed too and a lot of these companies that have invested millions of dollars into virtual reality like facebook are looking at it from a metaverse perspective now if you don’t

Know what a metaverse is basically they want to build a world on top of a world so in the future when we all have augmented reality goggles the idea is that we’ll all get to share the metaverse together so basically you’ll all get to have some level of a minecraft house in some

Capacity and while that’s an interesting way to go forward i’m also kind of weirded out because it seems really cyberpunk and dystopian in the future too but with all of that said ladies and gentlemen it’s interesting to see where this technology is headed to and you know how things are going to

Effectively play out for now though i’ve slept in minecraft for six months will i continue with this i hope to not do it any longer okay again if i can wean off it great and if my sleep paralysis tends to rise which i honestly hope it doesn’t i’ve developed

A regimen i’ve developed a sort of schedule if you will and i think at this point i i i feel better i genuinely do feel better because of this experiment it might have been the smartest it might have been the best accident to ever

Happen to me and i also want you to get a glimpse of some of the atmosphere that you get i also have other worlds where for instance i can stand on a balcony and just look down on the ground and just be in the rain just like listen to

This for a little bit So yeah that’s sort of my uh six month update and this will be the last sort of minecraft sleep update ever okay i hope to god i don’t rely on this i don’t want to make it to a year i don’t want to become dependent on it so i’m probably

Just going to keep it down to like once a week sort of as like a sort of as like a weekend like getaway retreat kind of steal for me okay just i’m never going to completely give it up because it is such an enjoyable experience but i think

The time to end sleeping in minecraft is finally upon me but i have to say positively it’s made life a whole lot better who would have figured it out ladies and gentlemen who have figured out a happy accident on playstation vr would have led me down an absolutely positive rabbit hole ladies and

Gentlemen if you like what you saw please like comment and subscribe dislike it if you dislike it i am out
