Agreed that tracking is important. The most frustrating thing about seeing your hands float away is that you are unable to wave bye to them.
feelsbad, Yes... Yes we can take a moment...
this is oddly poetic

And the best comment of January goes to...
i forgot to comment my approval on this. 11/10
Save your money from getting a third sensor. You can bypass this by placing 1 sensor in front and the other behind you. During the oculus startup it will tell you it's recommended to have them 6 feet apart but ignore it. I also recommend placing 1 sensor on the floor pointing upwards at you and the second sensor higher than you pointing towards at you. If you have nothing to hang the sensor up just duck tape it xD
Do you mean that if you had for example a play area of exactly 2,5 Meters in every direction (basically a cube) it would make sense to put them into opposing corners each looking either up or down at you?
Or is it better to put them right behind and Infront of you?
@@Isaax Have them diagonal across from each other, so if it's a square have it at the top left and the bottom right :)
Nekuuz this works to a point. I find having one sensor in the back and one in the front kills the tracking on the headset which causes your world to shift forward and backward as you pass directly between both sensors. It also does a lot of guessing on the tracking of the touch controllers which kills it from time to time, but it def works better than both in front allowing for 360 degree tracking for the controllers. Just be ready for the VR “quakes” when you move between your sensors.
I put them in my wardrobe because i gave up
when i set mine up today it recomends between 3 and 6 foot apart. But at 6 foot it said they were too far apart and ended up having to move them closer to about 4 feet apart to get them to work. Cause of the way i had to place them to get them to register and be setup it only left me a 3 foot by 4 foot play area. Means i cant put my arms out or they go out of the play area. They only registered the headset and controllers when they were in front of me and about 4 foot off the ground. Tried them on the floor to start with but it said they need to be head height. so put them on top of my speakers and pointed them upwards a bit till i got them to work.
Think thats why the windows mixed reality headsets r better and rated higher than the oculus and vive sets. as they dont use sensors so easier to setup giving a bigger play area. Also less wires to get in the way.
So much has changed in the last year. So much more awesome content has come out for it. I love my Rift purchase.
Great video man! On the surface it seems like pretty common sense stuff, but a brand new user feels so overwhelmed they don't think of these things. I wish this was around when I bought my rift. lol
well that's not very nice.
Love the tips! I’ve had my Rift for a little while now and love the 3rd sensor and agree that it is absolutely necessary to get immersed.
Yooo I picked up my rift from this lanky guy in a trench coat behind Arby's for like 18 dollars! Now I'm playing beat saber with the cool kids!
lmfao best comment in a minute
Before you set up your sensors, be sure to watch my guide on How to Get Perfect 360 Degree Tracking: ruclips.net/video/gth4qH6hVMc/видео.html
Hope you enjoyed the video! Subscribe for more!
It's not picking the controllers or the headset in the room setup. It also wouldn't pick it up while I tried to play Waltz of the Wizard.
Thank you! I am one of those new Rift owners, and I did erverything what you said, before this video, and I can recommend every point! And thanks for the Chronos Tipp!
Just got mine yesterday,thinking of certain spaces to clear out to use it properly,thanks for the help man!
Here's another tip. If you're using the security mount, before you screw it to the wall, put a zip tie through one of the mounting holes. Most of those plates have 2 screw holes, don't need all of them, so one can be for the zip tie. What to do with it once it's in? Zip the cord in place. No Duck Tape stickum to the wall. ;)
+PapaWoofs whoa thats a great idea. got a picture of that solution in action??
Perfect presentation and delivery of information, just how i like my how-to videos. Subscribed and ill be watching more of your videos.
Honestly I thought this was gonna be a dumb video but I'm glad I watched it cause I'm now definitely going to get those security camera mounts
Awesome video man! Just ordered the rift bundle with a third sensor. Your quality is really good. Subscribed!
thank you! glad to hear you enjoyed
Great video. This applies to me now as I'm finally getting an OG Rift in the next few days because I found a refurbished set with controllers and two sensors for a good price. I have never even used phone VR before, lol.
stumbled across this video just looking for various tips and input from other users. This is one of the better ones.
Great advice on the setup with the 3rd sensor, extensions, and wall mounts . I wish I had watched this before my initial setup...
Got mine with the sale too. NO regrets. very informative video. thanks a lot!
I got the Oculus with the discount. No regrest so far. Me and my wife are loving it and actually thinking on getting a second one to play Co-op
What do you play in co op?
I love my Rift now. Got 3 weeks ago. Bought 3rd sensor for room scale and the replacement face plastic from VRCover which increases the FOV. Happy with it all :)
Thomas Baxter increases fov in the headset??
Just a note on two sensors vs three sensors. It depends on how much room you're playing in. If you have a small space (my play area is about 1.5sqm) and I can just place two sensors opposite eachother (one in front of me, one behind) and I get great 360 tracking.
Great video , just bought a Rift so this is really helpful. Big thanks
Getting the Rift for my birthday. Very excited!
Thank you for the steam vr shortcut advice!
thanks for the welcome! I bought it to do some dev! :D
Just tried out VR for the first time at a friends house on thanksgiving. Had always been skeptical about the whole VR thing but after trying it I decided the next day to check and see where the price was at.. shocked to see it down to 350 for a whole setup and immediately bought it.
Dude, awesome and informative video, thanks! From - A New Oculus Owner ; )
My rift is coming later today, thanks for these awesome tips! Cheers!
thats great, what games are you getting?
My Rift is coming tomorrow! IM SO EXCITED!
That last advice makes me happy. I'm about to buy a rift (I was saving for a Vive, but i cant really justify 250€ of difference between the two), and i want it mainly for the headset. Knowing that there are VR games specifically made to use the pad means that i wont bee relegated to just flight and driving sims.
I got the Marvel bundle last week and I'm loving it. It's the same price as the regular bundle but with 1 extra game. Robo recall is tons of fun.
Thank you so much for the Steam shortcut! Just what I needed
I also go back a while :D got the DK1 in 2014, a time without sensors and tracking ;) but sold it in late 2015! Getting back into VR now and thanks for the great tips!
I bought it day one when I saw the sale... lol. I even got their left over stock (the one with the Xbox 1 controller and remote). I love it. I mostly use it to race with, but I do play the room scale games (w/ 2 sensors) and I enjoy that as well.
Yep, the fairly large price drop was what did it for me....and I'm completely blown away by it!
I got my OCULUS RIFT VR - I LOVE it - for startrek bridge crew & other games
Just picked up a used CV1 for under $200! Excited to get into my own VR setup!
Some pretty awesome tips there and well explained, bud!
Subbed! :-)
Just got mine for Christmas excellent video cheers.
cool of you to do this video bro too bad this video wasn't out when I got my rift (launch date) I had to learn all this stuff by myself but it definitely help the VR newbs out there.
+Hippieana Jones only the strong survived back then! haha
Played this while giving birth, the baby came out with the legendary square eyes
Yeah I just bought one I love it. I have a high end PC so I was thinking about buying a PlayStation 4 for the exclusives but I'm happy I got the Rift instead.
I finally just bought my rift!
Now i just gotta wait for it to get here Dx longest week of my life
You are not alone. Jump to that due to BF deal haha
same i ordered today on cyber monday
@@Guko488 i got it today and it is damn fun to play! only one thing i hate. How to solve glasses problem?
I feel ya man my dosent come till later today and im so anxious
Helpful video bruh, well appreciated!
Very very helpful! Thank you for sharing this.
I have a small play space, so 2 sensors has been fine for me. Only issue I have is detection on the floor because of desks in the room, but that's expected. I did get 6 feet extensions so the cables reach the floor from behind my desk and this has help A LOT.
Got the oculus for 550$ bucks and i have no regret ! Thanks alot for the video, really helped me !
Just got the rift a few days ago...it is everything I wanted the psvr to be. Don’t know what I was thinking with the psvr, It was a huge letdown.
I have eve Valkyrie and love it. I had it for psvr but it is so much better of rift.
Thanks for this video, nice tips .
I'd advise trying out mounting your 2 sensors high up (on the wall/ceiling boundary), 180 degrees opposite each, pointing to chest level in the very centre of your area first before getting a third sensor. I've not had any tracking issues and have a good 1.8m x 1.8m area that I can turn 360 in with just 2 sensors.
Just wanna say that you CAN survive with a two sensor setup. Especially if you don't have the room or money for a 3rd sensor. I have a two sensor set up and I have one of mine in the middle of the corner of my wall, and one on the ceiling corner of the wall. Works great and gets nice 360 set up. (My sensors are about 9 feet apart tho)
just got steam vr downloaded to oculus home thanks to you! youre the man!
Pretty sure SteamVR launches natively from Oculus now in the latest update
Great info right here man thanks
I'm glad I saw this one week before the kids unwrap their Rift. Thanks.
would love to see a video on sensor placement.
Or to open steam vr you can always just go to your digital desktop and open it 🤔. That works for me
ElChapo The Taco that's what I do too. I wonder if that wasn't a thing when he made this video
Thanks so mutch that realy helped me and please do another video about VR oculus!
Just got my Oculus from Best Buy with a third sensor for $400 I’m glad I found this video, thanks a lot homie
I never knew about badoink until now... thank you good sir
Getting my Rift in 2 days! :D So thank you!
Mine is coming tomorrow! :D i’m so excited :D
I also bought when it went on sale. Now I understand the hype.
Can't wait my Rift is coming. Jump for this because of the Blackfriday deal. Torn between Vive and Rift but end up with Rift since it has better deal and i got small room
I’m new, I have been using 2 sensors, but I did buy another
The Vive has dropped it's price too but I'm sticking to my rift, Had it for quite some time now and haven't regretted getting it
this is great info. thank you
I have barely used it. Bought it a month ago simply because in the next six months I want to play a little and then do some development. The price was reasonable and knowing that it was going to go up... sold it. Plus it was with the touch controllers so it was a relatively complete system but I did buy a third sensor. It was basically in the range of what the dev kits were way back when.
Thanks man! You helped me out here :)
Thx for the help it really helps
I just picked up a Rift with remote, controller, 'VR hands' and two sensors for £250 - second hand form my friend. I bought it for horror movies and ultimately Star Citizen. Really happy with my purchase, I know the Vive is better rated and I'm still figuring it all out. But with well managed expectations, I think I got a good deal that will last me many hours of fun and walking into my desk & bed. Thanks for the info, I need all the help I can get, lol
STAR. CITIZEN. Glad you’re enjoying yout Rift friend, be sure to follow my curator page for game recommendations too!
You can play SC in VR?
Lil trick if you got surround sat speakers with a back and a bottom mounting bolt hole likely its going to be the same thread 1/4-20 (I think) just use a bolt/screw and cut the head off for a threaded rod. worked great with my JBL's speakers.
Zip tie wire at base of the support bar...then weight is redirected to base not pulling on the sensor...where it can exert a lot of leverage.
i have a widows mixed reality but hope plan on going for an oculus
Great VIdeo. If you have any knowledge on tweaking pcs for VR performance I would LOVE to see it!
thank you, just orderd my rift!! :D
It can be harmful if people under 13 use the vr
Played H3 and then Onward. Great games!
Tips for best setting up the Oculus sensor would be really cool :)
Disco ball sensor mounted on the ceiling?
8 foot top-bottom bi-sensor strip mounted on the corners of the room?
Convert RR walking in a circle to VR walking straight, you could expand your VR play space without expanding RR building space?
VR reflective sensor shirt?
Mirror/lens sensor signal booster/distributor?
I have sooo many ideas, don’t even get me started on the VR porn piston.
*Experimental 360 tracking (diagonal setup) is a great alternative to a third sensor if you're low on USB ports and have a long enough USB extension cable*
just got my rift yesterday. gotta say im realy enjoying it, but i got tweek things a bit. think im gonna take your advice and get a 3rd sensor as well as cable extenders
Very nice video man. I would love to see a video on sensor placement.

You guys are *that* thick or what?
Pfft... look, the revised instructions included tells you in plain simple English. It's really simple to do. Plenty of good info out there too if you still really cant figure it out. ... bet you all probably don't even have VR ready PC's for your shiny new headsets lol.
Oh no wait, you lot do know you can't use VR with your Kodi/Android box or your Pi, right?
EDIT: Sorry, forgot to add... Welcome to VR (for when you all EVENTUALLY get things set up and running nicely)... ^^rolleyes^^
Harry Dempsey I totally agree with you and I have myself a 1700x with a GTX 1080Ti. I guess some people just assume they are smarter ^^
The Oculus tool tray program will do the SteamVr replacement for you. It also has great settings for allot of other stuff. =)
David Ouillette after a recent update you can now see a history of apps/games you have launched from with in oculus home, they just show up now which is cool.
Simple Simon they don't always start up from oculus home. Still a bit glitchy.
Yes fair point, I noticed that to recently.
Great vid, ty
Vr porn is actually amazing. Waaaay better than i imagined
wtf
WSS ;)
Lol weirdo
I second this. Wasbalso poaitively overwhelmed. Its likr a new different expierience
@@yeah2152 wait till you try it yourself mamaguevo
Great video. appreciated the tips so much, I subscribed to your channel. I will take your advice on getting the 3rd sensor since there is at least one game that I love that it stutters a lot if I am not looking directly in front of it. I would love to hear about sensor setup. I was actually expecting you to go into the 6-feet and the angle barrier that really bothers me. Why I can't make the sensors more than 6 feet apart and why only at a certain angle. I wonder how you got past that by drilling your sensors to the wall. And what about the 3rd sensor? Does it have a really long wire so you can place it in the back? Does the 6-feet issue go away with 3rd sensor?
Yes, I want a video on sensor setup please. Thanks!
“As some who has done this *literally* hundreds upon hundreds of times.... maybe not hundreds” 😂😂😂😂
Jokes aside, great video man.
Yep just got mine yesterday.
I was waiting for a major price drop and long term studies on whether or not it negatively effects the eyes but the 399 got me to jump in early.
fucking awesome with the steam vr patch.... best rift advice video!!!!!!!
Mine just came 2 hours ago
I came about an hour ago 😏
Robo recall.
Elite dangerous.
play kill floor incursion and you'll love it, im also new to oculus but i find horror games on psvr amazing so might as well get into 360 tracking horror games
Dee Gee congrats it's awesome man get a hotas controller and elite dangerous then you will never leave the house
Dee Gee got mimes from craiglist $300! new! yay!
Help! I can't find the room assets folder :(
Great video!
Got it for 350$ I love it- was a doubter but not anymore! I have the 3 sensor setup.
We need more of Mythos of the World Axis. That game is very amazing.
Lucky's Tale works with touch! Jumping flipping, spinning andc just renembered Faceplanting! (AND YOU CAN CLIMB!)
I got the Oculus rift + touch bundle on sale for 400€ and it has definitely been worth it.
Ordered my rift yesterday, the delivery is over a couple of hours :)
So how were your first experiences with it?
I only see some VR stuff from mobile phones, that is something i didn't like. So i had my doubts because of that and the low resolution... But wow! The first time you enter the tutorial from Oculus, that's simply amazing! And with racing sims and elite dangerous.. it is just fantastic! Sure it is a first gen device but the overall experience is great!
Steam VR shortcut didn't work for me using the new oculus home 2.0 beta, when I try to copy the game file over I get a windows defender message telling me a trojan has been detected on my computer
ordered mine yesterday
Thank You.
It is a beautiful machine I love it
i feel like 2 sensor can do enough but you get a smaller area, going to try it out with both on the roof around 3 meter apart diagonal, hope that works. I have bought oculus, just waiting getting it just a few days(i hope)
