As far as I know the Pitool MC is based on the OVRIE, or is pretty much the same.
As many of you know, there is a new version with many updates, and new options it is OVRMC. And Pimax likes to give options and different configuration tools.
Many Pimax users are simmers, and we are having many problems with the Pitool Motion Cancellation, first, there is no option to reorientate and recenter the view, and second, there is no filter to avoid the vibrations.
The new OVRMC versions have it both, you can reorientate and recenter the view, so you can place the tracker or controller anywhere you want on your simulator.
And there is a slide from zero to one, where zero absorbs all you vibrations and one is raw tracking. And this is a huge improvement.
Would be very nice and convenient to implement at least these two options in the Pitool MC and Pimax Experience.
As per the most recent version, OVRMC finally works really well using a tracker together with a Pimax HMD.
Itās not just that it allows for a better orientation of the Tracking device, being able to adjust dampening for shaker induced vibrations is an absolute godsend!
Thatās really great it finally works with Pimax.
Can you please explain how?
Iāve tried it with tracker, dongle, vive wands and index. I select the tracker and activate the motion.
I get some movement in the headset when I move the tracker but totally wrong, I get a lot of distortions on the fov and ham, itās like if the virtual word was duplicated, it was the same with OVRIE.
Please can you explain how did you get it to work?
I installed version 0.3.4 (I believe, the most recent one anyways). I launch SteamVR via PiTool, then turn on the tracker, then I execute the cmd file in the OVRMC directory that allows for desktop control of MC, I select the tracker as tracking reference and enable MC.
On previous versions this didnāt work at all as rather than compensating my rigās motion, OVRMC exaggerated it, so the exact opposite. Never had any visual issues though.
It now works flawlessly for me, just like on the Index.
Cool, I think I missed the part of the cmd file, with Index it works without using it, Iāll try it again. Thank you!
I hope that Pimax improve his own MC and we can use it directly from the Experience though, and that steam stop f-ing it with his updates, our hardware is not worth it without this software
Iāve it paired with the dongle as well, but in Pitool, if I try to pair it via SteamVR I got the message; looking for VR hardware and nothing happens, it only works with the Index connected.
So with Pimax connected you select Pair new device in SteamVR and you pair the tracker there?
Hmm probably thatās what I have manage to do.
And the tracker appears on Pitool as well or only in SteamVR?
Pairing the controller / trackers to the headset / dongle, does not use BT. BT is only needed for āotherā management (i.e. lighthouse power and channel management).
Yes Iāve read it, so a new tracker only can be paired to the headset via Pitool, not SteamVR
Then I donāt know why Iām getting this weird effect with OVRMC, maybe itās not compatible, but it seems to work with others, any idea of suggestion?
