About this deal

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? 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). 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. I hear what you're saying regarding the adhesive maybe not being strong enough, those Vive base stations are quite heavy! 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.

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 Yep those were the tripods, they worked out great and very easy to set up. And like I said previously have not touched them since.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.

The Valve Index Base Stations require a power source to operate. They come with power adapters that need to be connected to a power outlet.Both Base Stations have a green light in the upper half of the front, 9 red lights in a square on the front and the letter A on the left one and the letter B on the right one. When they are powered down they just have a muted green light. I don't know if this is relevant, I'm just trying to provide as much info as possible to try to get to the bottom of this!

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. Thank you all for taking the time to read through all of this, please post any hints or tips below, it is much appreciated!Take into account that the basestation has moving internal parts and your adeshive could be not enough to keep the base station fixed. I have found the online manual and will answer my own questions in green... for those in the same boat! 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... The rear right Base Station had a lit up B displayed on the front, I pressed the button and it changed to C
