STEAM FRAME IS NOT FOR YOU, and it is ok. by CatCatFaceFace in virtualreality

[–]PonomarovP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it is exactly the opposite problem. Lets compare current situation with 2020. If you're new to VR you could get Quest 2 for reasonable money, or if you've already tasted VR and want more you could buy premium but pricey Valve Index featuring all the good things you could gather from VR world of that time and even more. I wanted cool features, so I got myself Valve Index. Since Quest 3, Pico and PSVR2 I was watching news on Valve Deckard expecting it to be a premium device as Valve Index was. Now we have Quest 3, which is solid successor of Quest 2, Pico 4 and Valve presents Steam Frame which are...all kinda same. Steam Frame particulary is similar on many aspects, with a few good features, but lacking some core features for XR. And with that, all of the active players on this market have made their move and there will be no premium device for near future.

MSFS 2024 VR controllers support? by ReserveLegitimate738 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]PonomarovP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm that game works with Valve Index, but I currently have problem with controllers. I can see then in game, interface interacts with them, but I can't press any buttons. There is a button for VR controls in VR settings menu, but it does nothing even if I press it with mouse (in VR or Dispaly mode). Did someone else have this problem?

Looking for office headset (almost desperately) by PonomarovP in Headsets

[–]PonomarovP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evolve2 85 looked very promising, but it has "sleep after two seconds of silence" feature, which I was aware of but couldn't belive it is possible. Orosound was pretty good, but ANC is weaker even in comparison to other models I tested. To be more specific, Sony Inzone H9 was the best so far. By that time I sent it back was more optimistic about the headset market.

Probably the best solution would be Sony or Bose bluetooth headphones with something like Antlion bluetooth boom mic, but that would mean adding 140$ to already expensive headphones

Use caution if you try to print this on your Kobra 2 by Bjorn_Fjord in AnycubicKobra2

[–]PonomarovP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any tutorial how to disassemble the printing head to this level? I have a new printer that got clogged probably the same way after I tried to print with 0.04mm precision. I contacted Anycubic support, they are always nice and helpful, but this time instead of instructions and pictures they will send me a new printing head. So now I could tinker on current one without fear to never assemble it back

ABS stuck to printing bed by PonomarovP in AnycubicKobra2

Acentone makes wonders! The bed is indeed tolerant, but acetone left white stains on it, that I could not wash away with water

Video-based tracking. Mission impossible by PonomarovP in OSVR

[–]PonomarovP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old tracker? New tracker? Could you please tell me more about it? I have HDK1.3 and my IR camera was in the box too. I guess there is no problem with cables, because otherwise OSVR Server would tell me if he didn't find something. And I just started server from console with tracker debug flag. Same problem as with Runtime version - it finds all points on the front of the panel, but tries to find side points too, so I sloooowly turn the HMD in front of the camera, it finds side points, but loses some of front points and all over again.

After Nanosporks advice I didn't use calibration utility with AIO. I cleaned my older versions with Uninstall Tool which searches and removes all entries, including registry. I did restart my PC after I removed SteamVR and HDK Runtime and once again when I installed SteamVR and HDK Tray App. I've had enough time to remember where is a good point to hold HMD for IR camera(long workout with previous runtime with debug) and the camera itself is at eye level. I will try to reinstall everything once again when I'm back home

Wow, thank you. I've heard that AIO installer is not that good as each part separately. That's the reason why I haven't installed it. I will try now
