It’s a great bit of kit. Pity the company seems to want to compensate for it by being totally inept at customer service or being able to supply customers with what they ordered.

@Archer
If I had gotten the replacement in 8-10 days, then I would’ve been happy. But no, I even had to request a refund 3x before they acted upon it. If I had gotten my refund processed as soon as I said so, I would be in a slightly better mood with regards to Pimax but having to escalate each and every refund request was just taking the piss.

They need to either tighten up their QC so less and less headsets go out faulty or sort out their customer service so that any issues are dealt with swiftly and smoothly. Ideally both.

Hi @greenman!

Although I’ve never tested you should use Airlink with oculus 2 the process should be pretty much this one:
Open Oculus App in the computer Open SteamVR in the computer Open Airlink in the q2 headset
At this point you should see SteamVR view in the headset Launch Falcon BMS with VR activated (easy from Alternative Launcher)
Also, if you feel like, you can try Steam Link App from oculus store (it’s free) in the Q2 headset

https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/5841245619310585/

It’s similar to Airlink but I believe (anyone correct me here please if wrong) you don’t need to be running Oculus App in the computer.

Hope it helps!!

Good luck and enjoy!! 🙂

@Yan2411 smoothtrack is basically just an input interface to opentrack running on the PC and interacting with BMS.
So a) opentrack works with BMS.
b) as will all phone/webcam facetrack apps such as smoothtrack, AITrack it depends on a few factors such as quality of you camers, lightning etc. As most phne cams are capped at a 30fps framerate don’t expect the result with such a setup to as smooth like with dedicated IR based solution with 60 or 120Hz cameras
But as a base yes the app should work with BMS

If you don’t want to spent the 10$ for the smoothrack app you still can try AITrack https://github.com/AIRLegend/aitrack first as it opensource and free and does the same in the end

@spotdott said in Guide for Starting the Game in VR:

@Drive_Sprocket it’s normal to have the VR headset to appear lower in resolution than a monitor. You are lucky that you started in a quest 2 which has pretty decent resolution and should be able to make out the text in the HUD and MFDs (just don’t expect crystal clear visuals). I don’t have a quest 2, have a Reverb G2, instead but the resolutions are similar. What matters for your setup is that your machine needs to produce each image and then encode the image to be streamed into the quest by a USB link. To prevent the image from looking like a 320p video, you need to make sure that the bit rate of the encoder is at least 400 kbps or something like that. There’s a quest 2 tool you can download that can set the bit rate

Yes, your video resolution and headset resolution are different. When using VR, your 2D video resolution does not matter. Some have suggested that lower desktop resolutions may equate to higher frame rates in your headset. I’m not sure as I have not tested this theory.

But play with the Resolution on your headset with the Reverb desktop software.

@Snake122 Okay. Seeing the displays with them wasn’t the key point of my post, although it seems to be what everyone was drawn to. I was just wondering if mine was the same as everyone else’s vision in VR in that it was full screen and not a reduced circle/oval shape. Judging by your post, I’m taking it that I am the same as others.

I have installed a 7900 XT in my machine. Compared to my 3060ti the experience is worse. The raw performance seems to be higher, I can use higher resolutions but I get some flickering on the icp if I move the head. I also have to use antialiasing in the game to improve flickering in general.

From my point of view their is an additional eye strain using this setup. I cannot tell if this is because of reprojection or other issues.

@Flash-0
In WMR, when this happens, you need to… You figured it out! This is a WMR specific thing, not game related.

@MaxWaldorf sounds good, do you/other mods have to move threads there or can we somehow?

EDIT: I see you already moved one of mine. Thanks for all you do Max and don’t let some of the haters get you down😂
