Valve Index Base Station (1 Pack)

Product Information

If your base stations aren't working correctly, make sure they are properly set up for optical sync. Could it be that my Base Stations are too close together? they are pointing at each other on a diagonal 240 cm 2.4 m apart I did a solo spawn on the Kuban map at Adler in the South East region of the map where the mountains are, I had 80 fps except when I was skimming the ground at treetop height where I was getting mid 70's fps. Like I said I run IL-2 graphics settings on Ultra, I took the shadows quality down a notch from Ultra to High and disabled the MSAA x 2. I tried the flight again and it stayed at 80 fps even at very low level over trees and towns. I hear what you're saying regarding the adhesive maybe not being strong enough, those Vive base stations are quite heavy! I just found Valve's own guide for setting up the Index. For anyone else who is new to the Index, here is the link... https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9140-EYIL-0086

I won't be using my Hifi system whilst flying, so there won't be vibration whilst I'm in VR but it's a good point that I hadn't thought of. The vibration whilst blasting out Led Zep on my Hifi might move the base stations. The other base station / sensor will be behind me about 150 cm from headset and about 40 cm - 50 cm from the centre to the right...I was giving to buy a valve index in August but after seeing so many people having problems, I decided to go for the oculus quest 2 which is wireless and trip free. It has done me good for nearly 3 months If you move the pods slightly (the cat or dog touching them is enough), you must re-setup your playspace a-new as it will be off, and you might end up smashing the wall and the cat or dog. A hassle. But still a choice. Learn more.For a full set of product specs and additional information, please visit https://www.valvesoftware.com/index. The rear right Base Station had a lit up B displayed on the front, I pressed the button and it changed to C

If you need to re-synchronize the base stations or add new base stations, consult the Valve Index documentation for the specific steps required.

Are you ready?

The front right Base Station had a lit up A displayed on the front, I pressed the button and it changed to B Take into account that the basestation has moving internal parts and your adeshive could be not enough to keep the base station fixed. I set up my Base Stations on a diagonal with both pointing directly at each other, problem is, when I am sat in between the two my head gets in the way of the line of sight. So, tomorrow I try setting up the position of my base stations so that they can see each other.

I have placed my Base Stations each the same distance from where my head will be in VR, with Base Stations about 1.8 metres / 6 feet apart and about 1 metre / 3 feet 4 inches in front of my chair. is this the optimum position? I have read that some people use 1 Base station in front of the VR area (for me, a chair) and 1 behind, which setup is better? Each base station has a maximum recommended play area of approximately 6 meters by 6 meters (20 feet by 20 feet) when using two base stations. I would like 100% SS, no motion smoothing / ASW / frame doubling. 80 Hz / 80 fps. I have an i5 9600k @ 4.9 GHz and a RTX 2080 ti 11 Gb graphics card. My rig is in my signature below.

dburne's work fine for him, but note that he said that has them above his head and uses "seated playspace". I got 2 cats, a wife, a kid, and thus pods were impossible. Might as well drill proper holes.) I am thinking of mounting one of them in front of me to the wall above a window and it will be 150 cm from my headset when flight simming, is this enough distance? bro, I've seen a lot of people act like their VR headset is objectively the best, but this is on another level. It's enough for them, they're happy with it, so let them enjoy it.

I'm finally getting round to setting up my second hand Valve Index with controllers and HTC Vive base stations. Unfortunately the kit didn't come with an instruction manual, and whilst I will search the internet for a guide to set up my gear, I would still appreciate some advice from those who have experience with the Index. the set comes with two base stations which is all you need but the HTC ones work fine they just dont come with extra mounting hardware if you want a 3rd base station Aaaargh! I'm having a nightmare of a time trying to get Steam VR to recognise all of the devices. First it said that the VR headset display cable wasn't connected, when it was, after a while this message went away, then it said : Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope to be up and running when my mounting plates arrive tomorrow (fingers crossed) Thank you all for taking the time to read through all of this, please post any hints or tips below, it is much appreciated!One question is if you are going to use this just for seated games or also roomscale. If you plan to play roomscale maybe you would want ot maximize your space to the full room space (not only 1.5+1.5 diagonal but longer distance. Base stations support larger distances). I have found the online manual and will answer my own questions in green... for those in the same boat!
