[Rock climbing pulley to hold cable.] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F3BX6GQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

 

Currently using the sticker hook thing from this kit, going to switch for the permanent hook also in this kit if it falls off.

 

[Carabiners NOTE: This brand is cheap and the snap part breaks easily, might want to find another one but I just wanted to post what I used. I currently took this part off (so now its just the rock climbing pulleys) because it made twisting the cable worst and harder to pull down. I wanted more cable to pull but the additional drag and twisting wasn't worth the extra few inches.] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079L528H5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

 

[Cable clampers for a counter weight. I ended up using 9 total. 8 at the far end to pull back the cable. One at the front which is stopped at the pulley to give me a "relax" area. So its only pulling when I step out. This size clamper rubbed off some rubber from the "skinnier" rubber connector that's plugged in to the headset. Its fine and only (hidden) aesthetics that got a bit bruised, but if you do this I recommend maybe going one size up because it will make you cringe from abusing your nice headset.] (https://www.lowes.com/pd/Sigma-Electric-ProConnex-3-8-in-Clamp-on-Type-Service-Entrance-Connector-Conduit-Fitting/1087221)



I actually had a really complicated set up initially with extension wires running through the ceiling with a moving arm. It worked mediocre for the all work it took, and was too painful to untangle. The golden rule of keep it simple was hard learned.

Edit: Opposite view, posting it here since this comments up top

u/jethroboom · 18 pointsr/oculus

Some notes:

1 - I set up my cable with one of these kits, in my experience unless you train yourself, because you're still going to primarily turn in one direction, the wire will still get twisted, you need to take off the headset and untwist it occasionally (if you feel it pulling)

2 - This screw needs to be in a drywall anchor, or a bigger screw into a stud. It might feel snug now and work fine enough for you to ignore everyone's advice thus far, but it will eventually tear out. Best case scenario, you're left with a small hole.

u/JorgTheElder · 13 pointsr/OculusQuest

I got the black one and I love it. $12 delivered.

Now my $57 VRCover sits in the box.

Eyglo Silicone VR Face Cover Mask... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07WPHB3BT?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Here you go friend.

u/Broad_Imagination · 12 pointsr/oculus

Is this for VR? I use a suspended cable management system like this one:

www.amazon.com/Retractable-Management-Headset-MDW-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM/

Coupled with one of these belt clips:

https://www.bindvr.com

This solution has eliminated all my cable hassles entirely. The overhead system keeps the cable off the floor and the belt clip keeps the cable from pulling on your head when/if it gets bound. Works great!

u/jonketron · 11 pointsr/GearVR

This product has completely eliminated all of my overheating issues! Can be found here on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01KPTSQ4W/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It looks as if they are currently out of stock, but keep checking back, as this product is amazing!

u/Leoracle_ · 9 pointsr/OculusQuest

Lots of options... with most of them overpriced IMO. I would highly advise that before you shell out too much cash... to try out one of the silicone covers that fit the Quest. It's made all the difference in the world for me and only set me back $12.


This is the one I use:

u/Dogamondo · 9 pointsr/OculusQuest

I received mine yesterday, branded "Esimen VR Face Silicone Cover Mask & Face Pad for Oculus Quest Face Cushion Cover Sweatproof Lightproof Comfort Set (Mask Black)" from Amazon.

Thoughts after about 2-3 hours of usage:

  • Easy enough to install - just popped out the stock cover and fitted this over it, then snapped the cover back in place. Job done.
  • Had some issues with it fitting snug at the top of the cover, to the left and right of where the top strap protrudes. This causes a slight sag in the silicone which may contribute to the sensor blockage (described further down).
  • Feels quite cold on your face when you first put it on. Noticed that it felt a bit breezy in there too (weirdly enough).
  • Very comfortable after some use and does not leave the tell tale red marks on your forehead and under your eyes (the main reason for my purchase).
  • Gets a bit hot and sweaty but no more than using the stock cover in my opinion
  • Light leakage elimination is good. If the standard Oculus cover gives about 80% leakage elimination (leakage mainly through the nose), this drops the light leakage by another 5 - 10% (still some leakage through the nose, enough to still look down and check your phone if need be, but nowhere near as easy as before).
  • FOV/Immersion - This was a hard one for me as I can't really tell what it's doing. Essentially you are adding another ~1 - 1.5mm to the standard cover so I felt like the FOV was decreased slightly (even thought the product bills itself as "increased FOV" (no idea how that would even be possible)
  • No.1 Complaint - There's a sag in the fitment of the silicon to the top of the mask that blocks the display on/off sensor. So once you take the headset off, it'll still be shining through the lenses. At that point you need to use the on/off button at the side to turn the display off. So if you need to whip the headset off quickly and be guaranteed that the screen will turn off - this cover isn't for you.
  • So in summary, I'm reasonably happy with the $12 purchase and aside from the inevitable annoyances it does the main job for me which was to stop the gauges and lines in my forehead and eyes after more than 5 minutes usage of the Quest.

    Cheers
u/darealdsisaac · 8 pointsr/oculus

I have this. It works great and fits everything that came in the box, plus a little extra.

u/TalkingRaccoon · 8 pointsr/oculus

I got a Rift S a few months ago and these additions were a must imo:

  1. Hand straps to make them like knuckles controllers. You don't have to be constantly gripping your controller which is nice for long play periods. I have wrist problems so any help is good. but just being able to "let go" of stuff is excellent for immersion. I got the Mamut ones, and really like them. There's these Kiwi too which are cheaper.

  2. I primarily play beat saber so vr cover is a must so the foam doesn't get super gross. Also I got a workout headband or else sweat will get all in your eyes

  3. And since i value sound for Beatsaber, the built in speakers just don't cut it (missing bass) so I got these clip on headphones originally made for PSVR. They will clip on just fine to the Rift S halo. They sound fine. Maybe $40 was a bit much. If you're a tinkerer look up the Koss headphones mod. They're like $12 it looks like. And there's 3d printed things to clip the Koss to the halo strap.

$13 at Amazon and a set comes with two masks. They're easy to trade out and add to the comfort of the headset as well.

u/Colonel_Izzi · 7 pointsr/GearVR

> Just bought a Samsung Gear VR. While it's fun to use, it seems that it can't do much with my phone heating

Consider a cooling solution.

For the white 2015 Gear VR (SM-R322):

  • Satori VR Fan
  • CUVR

    For all Gear VR models:

  • CUVR Ultimate

    Or you could just sit in front of a fan, which actually increases immersion in some games (Rush, UltraWings etc).

    > or it not rendering quickly enough if I try to stream videos

    A new phone probably wont help you with that.

    > So my question is this. How much better would it work on the S7 and on the S8?

    The S7 is certainly less prone to overheating, and the S8 is even better again. I literally haven't experienced a single overheating event since I moved on from my S6, though reports do differ.
u/iBobaFett · 7 pointsr/PSVR

I went with this after someone on the sub recommended it:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M6EB8DM/

It's working really well for me. Sorta similar to your method, but the wires are all above my head rather than behind.

Edit: Looks like at the moment it's $25.99 + $5 shipping. When I ordered mine last week it had free Prime shipping. Still sold by the same seller, just dunno why they aren't offering the free shipping now.

u/hihoesilver · 7 pointsr/ValveIndex

Get a ceiling pulley system to get that wire off the ground. I am using these.

Used this kit for the pulleys. Double pulleys make a big difference. Very little resistance

I also use these after my girlfriend threw my controller because the magnetic battery compartment slipped off in her hand. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07VST5HXM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_cNe0DbAQ2J925

I use this because the stock facial foam absorbs sweat and this silicone cover prevents that from happening. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07WPHB3BT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_VQe0DbZY4ERTP

And finally I use these. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07W6449LB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_0Re0DbMY498K8

u/ezikiel12 · 5 pointsr/OculusQuest

Bought a quest about a week ago. Had a CV1 before that; my gf and I noticed it was significantly less comfortable. Found a rad headband to 3D print (shoutout to 'thatdude902' on thingiverse!). Between the headband, short 90 degree aux cable, a sweet little cable organizer sticky thing, and a silicone facial interface cover (beat saber & pistol whip sweating) I'd say it's been an amazing improvement to the headset. I've linked all the items in case you're interested.

u/Fapzz · 5 pointsr/pornvids

once you experience vr porn its hard to go back to regular stuff, i sit around jerkin for like 45 min every day with my VR GOGS


you can get a great phone-vr set for $25 too here or here prob the best headsets under $70

no its not oculus levels of VR and requires some tweaking along with a good phone display (thats not cracked either guys) and with good phone hardware to actually run VR videos without overheating

u/resinh · 5 pointsr/freebies

free is free but these google cardboards are the worst way to experience VR - even apps

even the shitty $20 plastic ones are a million times better

https://www.amazon.com/Virtoba-X5-Elite-Headset-Smartphones/dp/B01H35AU3G is arguably the best headset priced under a GearVR

u/birds_are_singing · 5 pointsr/GoogleCardboard

iOS is pretty limiting when it comes to Cardboard.

Controllers generally don't work, specifically there's nothing that would emulate the screen tap you'd need for YouTube, Street View, etc. The items that work for that on Android are mice, which Android supports natively and iOS does not. If you have an iPhone app that supports a controller, check with that app developer to see which controllers are tested and known to work.

The viewers I know of with buttons that work out of the box on iPhones are the ViewMaster (small lenses, not really recommended), I am Cardbord DSCVR (good for travel, no head straps), and the official design Cardboard v2.

I've seen one instance of a guy who got a BoboVR Z4's button to work with an iPhone by taping an additional area of foil to it.

The BoboVR Z4 is the more or less default recommendation — large lenses, wide FOV, built-in button, head straps, adjustable IPD, adjustable focus. There are versions with and without headphones, without being cheaper. It's somewhat heavy (most plastic viewers are) and the comfort isn't amazing (depends on face shape).

VR Viewers seem to always have a lot of rebrands, I've seen the BoboVR Z4 sold as the Virtoba X5, AFUNTA, and Uniify UV003. Even the non-shill Amazon reviews are generally worthless as most reviewers haven't tried more than one viewer.

Edited to add: link to a Virtoba Z4-clone for $20. If you're willing to mess around trying to get the button to work, that's probably your best option.

I've used this with the rift for the past year and has been great (keeps dust out, prevents sunlight from hitting the optics, and makes it harder for spiders to sneak in and murder you when you least suspect it): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M62A4VH

u/Sacify · 4 pointsr/oculus

Try www.amazon.com/Retractable-Management-Headset-MDW-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM helped me

u/badillin · 4 pointsr/Vive

Anything that has like a spring that pulls back the line can work. ive seen people use those retractable lanyards or retractable dog leashes

Just a hook wouldnt work as the point is that the device "feeds you" cable when needed and takes it back when you dont.

I bought these:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M6EB8DM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


Also, Here is a sketch of my play area, and you can see where i put the hooks.

https://i.imgur.com/tfzMhYZ.png

Also if you get the DAS (which i strongly recommend) here is a couple of pics on how i setted up the cables on the headset itself (just make sure they come out the back)

https://i.imgur.com/GDN03Tf.jpg

And just in case you decide to get the ceiling cable management i posted, i found out that doubling or tripling the retractable hooks gave me more freedom of movement, basically i feel the cable pulling me way less with more than 1 hook, like so: https://i.imgur.com/3sATB80.jpg

Also, if you use the ceiling things, id recommend cutting a couple of "stoppers" out of cardboard, these helped me A LOT because from time to time the hooks would join up, or change places and make it unconfortable, these "limits" fixed that by limiting where the hook movements.

u/pac_man2k5 · 4 pointsr/skyrimvr

It's difficult to say right, because the thing about skyrim and modding is that everything can be tuned to personal taste.

So what I would say, is that I would personally really would look into "Natural Locomotion" on Steam and the VR QuickBelt tool https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/16467.

They are tricky to setup but definetely worth it once you get it just right. Natural locomotion worked really well once I got it to be done by using the trackpad instead of the grip buttons.

Also, not technically a game mod, but if you can setup the following correctly, then it adds A LOT to immersion as you don't worry anymore about that pesky cable on the floor and you can rotate physically:

https://www.amazon.com/Retractable-Management-Headset-MDW-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1523778848&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=vive+ceiling+hook

I'm also planning on setting up voice attack to press Z on shouting a phrase, like if I shout "Fuck" it'll shout one word by holding z for half a second, "Fuck you" would shout two words and "Fuck off" would shout all three.

So got off on a tangent, but I suppose you could say those are technically "modifications."

As for other mods, I would highly suggest, as tedious as it sounds, to search on nexus for mods by category, then sorting by endorsement, and really looking as to what they add and whether or not that entices you, and then grab it!

Personally:

  1. Ordinator - So many ways now open up as to how you can approach the game
  2. Imperious - Adds more gametime just by the mere fact that each race now can "feel" different and you can do a playthrough on each!
  3. Apocalypse - Again, adds many ways in which you can approach playing the game, which is always a good thing

Why don't you use a cable management system? If done right, it can be more effective than wireless without having to worry about battery life, latency, heat, and additional battery weight and sensors on your head.

If the weight of your headset (or the tugging of the cable) has you down, you can use suspension cables like these: https://www.amazon.com/Managment-Suspension-Playstation-Microsoft-Accessories/dp/B0777H24ZG

They make a world of difference in the comfort of the headset. Especially headsets with beefy cables like the Reverb.

"Ceiling retractors are the best upgrade for under $30"

Anywho...

I love them too...had to fiddle a bit with keeping the clips from bunching up with spacing and such. Also had to to bend the hooks to vigorous pulling wouldn't unclip the retractors from the ceiling clips that came in my kit. Not wireless by any means, but I no longer have a chunk of brain devoted to cable-on-floor-management.

If I wasn't going wireless next I'd probably get some like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0777H24ZG/ next time, so the cable can't slip and such. Seems like that would work better.

I have the AMVR arriving tomorrow and Amazon says they will back in stock the 14th

Mine is arriving much faster than their shipping date.

Edit: used it for a couple hours playing Gun Club VR. Everything fit perfectly. I’m pleased with my purchase. I don’t wear glasses, so I’m not sure about that fit.

u/AnticrombieTop · 4 pointsr/OculusQuest

I've tested out several different ones. Honestly, I didn't like any of the silicone covers. Silicone is supposed to be breathable, but these did nothing for stopping sweat from wicking the sweat to the cloth Quest covering, and they feel 'sticky' after just a bit of use if you take them off and put them back on, even with an alcohol wipe-down (the silicone absorbs a bit).


Also, I don't recommend any of the cloth covers. From my tests after a single wash even in cold-water by hand, they end up stretching in all the wrong ways and tough to get aligned right without leaving gaps or interfering with vision.

My favorite has been a leather cover. The AMVR cover comes with a replacement bracket with velcro attached and two different thickness leather covers. It also has notches in the top corners for the glasses arms. It comes with a nose guard that sticks with double-sided tape at the bottom to block out light, but I don't use that. I got mine on Amazon for $30.


If you do really want to go with silicone, the best of the bunch that I've tried was the "VR Face Silicone Cover Mask & Face Pad" from a seller named Devansi on Amazon. I had to trim around the inside a bit so it didn't interfere with vision.


Here are the links to Amazon (Sorry MOD if it's against the rules; let me know and I'll edit them out)


Best leather cover that I tested: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VT3BM7P

Best silicone cover that I tested: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X6DJQS1


BTW, the reason why I have tested so many different Quest products (covers, batteries, cords, cases) is to recommend setups for VR training. I wanted to find the best ones that would allow easy wipe-down in-between sharing among different user.

u/FlailingFatKid · 4 pointsr/OculusQuest

So I can't say that I'm 100% sold on this yet, but I got it a week ago from amazon for $12 and it's working pretty well for me. It's a soft silicone cover that goes over the original foam. It's comfortable enough, and it completely blocks any sweat from getting onto the foam. You kinda get the best of both worlds, all the padding of the foam and completely waterproof. It's easy enough to take off too, if you're not going to be playing an active experience.

The only reason I say I'm not completely sold on it is that it makes it a little tighter to wear my glasses, and it seems like the quest doesn't breathe quite as well and the lenses fog up after playing Beat Saber for a while. For the price though, I'm glad I didn't go for the VR Cover.

u/Shensmobile · 4 pointsr/oculus

I have large hands as well and I found that the “small” hand setting (lowest slot for the elastic band) on the AMVR grip is actually better for me. The reason being that it forces your hand down, and be placed lower on the grip, which puts my thumb at a more natural angle on the buttons and thumbstick. When the band was in the top most slot, it pushed my hand up which puts your thumb at sort of an awkward angle to the buttons.

Edit: Also I found these today: https://www.amazon.com/KIWI-design-Knuckle-Oculus-Controller/dp/B07XYYNXJ3

Nice that one part of the strap uses the original strap mount, this will be great for people who want a knuckle strap while also being able to use a (magnet) gun stock. Not a fan of the use of hook-and-loop though because it will wear/fail over time, and the mounting technique for the top strap leaves a lot to be desired, but I'm happy for more options.

This silicone cover is pretty good not just for comfort, but so you could clean the sweat off instead of the foam absorbing it

u/animatroniccat · 3 pointsr/OculusQuest

Here’s been my recommendation to anyone: DAS mod and silicone cover. Best thing I ever did. DAS probably isn’t necessary but I enjoy the head phones portion and the ease of adjustment (and it’s pretty comfy). Originally bought a vrcover (both the plush and the thin) but the Interface they use doesn’t work with my face and drove me crazy, lots of pressure on my cheekbones where the weight sat plus it would slide down. Tried the silicone cover (covers the om face gasket) on a whim and it’s been magical. Covers up the nose gap which is nice. Feel really good against my skin ( wasn’t expecting that thought it would be rubbery) but most importantly it kindof grips my face and the weight feels much more evenly distributed. It’s still gonna be a heavier device than my rift s but now I can play a game and instead of my main focus being on shifting and adjusting the headset I can just enjoy the game. Here’s a link for the cover I got. Wish I didn’t spend the money on the shitty vr cover which has no return policy.

Orzero Silicone Eye Mask Cover... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WV22V8J?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share


Also I tried using a counterweight with the das and found it didn’t affect my comfort at all so unless I’m gaming with a battery pack I normally don’t use it. Others have said it makes a big difference for them though.

u/yneos · 3 pointsr/OculusQuest

You'll get a lot of different opinions. I'm happy with a silicon cover like this.

u/ThMogget · 3 pointsr/oculus

I have had these for a while, and I can't play VR without knuckle straps now. The only problem I have had is that the hard plastic has a sharp ridge that digs into my palm if I grip too hard while slicing up droids with Darth Vader's lightsaber.


I considered switching to the AMVR ones which are also well reviewed, but these kiwi straps are much cheaper and don't make the controller bigger for those of us with small hands. Should be here in the mail... tomorrow?

u/faduci · 3 pointsr/GoogleCardboard

Linking to lists is kind of useless, because a) you don't know if everybody will even get the same list, and b) even if the list is the same, it contains several viewers, most of them several times with different names. Not a good idea and probably the reason for the downvotes.

If you bought the one I see at the end of the list or the one above it, you have a Ritech 3D with adjustable IPD and miserable FoV (I have one), pretty much the worst FoV of the plastic ones.

If you bought this one with adjustable IPD and eye-lens distance, you payed for a ColorCross which has a slightly better, but still miserable FoV and is rather uncomfortable (I have another one with the same lenses).

Both the ColorCross and the Ritech 3D are available for less and have been discussed here several times, as has been pretty much every other plastic HMD available below USD 60. They are all basically unsuitable for VR, as they have a FoV of about 55° or even less, while even the cheapest Cardboard has about 80° with a large phone. You'll see 3D in the plastic ones and they are good (and designed) for 3D movies, but VR looks like watching a world through binoculars, you won't get immersion, it doesn't feel real.

u/carrotstien · 3 pointsr/GoogleCardboard

I just ordered one - it should be delivered 10-20 days (i guess from China). I'll be sure to post a review. So far, I have tried

v1, v2,

Wearality:http://www.wearality.com/,

FiveSung:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MHSPNH8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

and DESTEK:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0154NAJP8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

The best lens quality was in the v1 and v2s. V1 lenses show a smaller part of your phone, but because they are deeper than v2, this also means that the focus plane is level. For v2, while the lenses are bigger, the depth of the box is a bit too small, and forces your eyes to focus not at infinity, but at about a 2 foot depth (which is bad for your eyes for a long time).

If anyone has any questions about the headsets i've tried, let me know and I'll answer here.

btw, v2's button >> v1's magnet.

u/MuttJunior · 3 pointsr/OculusGo

Accessories like this usually takes time to roll out after a product does. They don't want to have a ton of accessories for a product that might flop. So I think this is a good sign that the Go is selling good (which I didn't have any doubt on anyway - This just confirms it even more), and hopefully we see more and more accessories released.

As for this case, I still recommend the one I bought over this to anyone looking, though. If we go by the German Alternate.de site and the UK Amazon site listed in other comments, it's around $45 for this case. The one I got is only $17, and holds more. Not only can I put the headset and Go controller in the case, I can also fit an Xbox controller, battery pack, mini wifi router, recharger, and all the cables in my case, which the pictures for the "official" case doesn't look like it can handle.

I purchased [a set of these](https://smile.amazon.com/Retractable-Management-Headset-MDW-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1524234947&sr=8-3& keywords=vive+cable+management) last year. Note that Amazon carries a variety of similar products. It works fairly well but I'd add some caveats. I have a drop-ceiling in my playspace so I was able to use string to affix the mechanism and didn't have to use the adhesive (which is reportedly very strong to the point of pulling off paint upon removal). You still have to be careful with a system like this because if you're swinging/punching with your arms, you can easily connect with a hanging cable.

I'm not sure if I really recommend it, but I don't regret getting it. I don't always use it, but when I do it has been useful.

The thing applies to the ceiling with a very strong kind of sticky glue and applies to any surface (I thought it wouldn't apply to mine, since it's all rough, but it holds on fine). Then you can put that black part through the hook applied to the ceiling, which then has a retractable cable in it. Connect the black clip to the cable and put your vr cables through the black clip and you're done. So the only hing that is kind of hard/impossible to remove is the sticky part with the hook in it. The rest can be plug-and-play removed.

Highly recommend this!

HOWEVER - Only recommend if you are able to drill them - They can't hold the weight of the cables without being drilled - I used Tecks Self Tapping screws (meaning you don't have to pre-drill a hole for them) I can check the exact size I got if you would like.

If you can't screw these into your ceiling then I wouldn't recommend, as they really weren't capable of holding the cables with just the provided adhesive (Just being honest, I certainly wouldn't want to risk anyones safety or anyones VR device)

u/Nostrildumbass · 3 pointsr/ValveIndex

I just use a wire coat hanger to pull down the retracting line and place the cable in it (and then just pull it down with the cable to remove the cable).

u/mattjb · 3 pointsr/VRGaming

Congrats! You're gonna have a blast with your new Rift S.

Start with games rated as Comfort or Comfortable. I'd avoid SkyrimVR for a bit until you get more used to VR. SkyrimVR is a bit janky and is more likely to induce nausea, especially if it has a hard time maintaining 80fps, which is likely (and even moreso with mods.) The game isn't a very good showcase or introduction to VR, as it was shoehorned in and not fully optimized for VR.

For SkyrimVR mods, check out this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimvr/comments/amf5u3/skyrim_vr_specific_mods/

Highly recommended games to start out with are Superhot VR, Space Pirate Trainer, Rec Room, I Expect You To Die, Beat Saber, Robo Recall, Dead & Buried, Job/Vacation Simulator.

For movement controls, stick with teleportations until you get your VR legs.

Take breaks often the first week or two.

Don't be alarmed when you experience what's called virtual reality disassociation (where you briefly wonder if your hands or objects you pick up are real or VR.) This sensation usually goes away after a few days.

If you experience motion sickness or nausea, don't force it and take a break. Not everyone experiences this, but those that do will find the feeling goes away with more use. Ginger tablets or gums can help alleviate this.

You may want to consider getting a ceiling cable suspension system to keep the headset cord out of your way: https://smile.amazon.com/Managment-Suspension-Playstation-Microsoft-Accessories/dp/B0777H24ZG/

Don't use a liquid cleanser on the lenses, just use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe it in a circular motion. Also don't leave the lenses exposed to direct sunlight, as the magnified rays would burn the display screen.

It came with pretty much everything I needed. The seller has fast and good communication as well when I requested additional hardware anchors. Highly recommend. I’ll never go back to playing VR with cables dragging on the floor and until wireless VR is bug free, this will be my solution. The only issue I have witnessed is with taller people. My buddy is about 6’3” and while he had no issues demoing my Rift, I was nervous about him getting too immersed and tangling himself in the cables.

I'm not sure which specific one I bought, but they all should be pretty similar. The 3m adhesive thing keeps it so you don't have to damage your ceiling either. They're absolutely a necessity for PCVR imo

i purchased this one from Amazon as a gift and accidentally ordered two. Decide to keep the extra, and i got to say that this is the best thing i have purchased in a long while. The X sticks out a little but it works great! Everyone who i have showed it to has been completely floored by it and 2 people are actually going to get the X as a direct result of playing with Cardboard and the Spotlight app.
The X does get a little warm if i use it for a long time but i have had no issues other than that.

The one i got works great other than the double-sided tape they use is kinda lame so i added a more robust tape but other than that i absolutely love it . Also, i used a penknife to score the pulltab before pulling it because the perforations seemed a little shallow. A bunch of people are getting this from me as Christmas gifts.

If you're handy though, I'd suggest purchasing the components and some foam board and making your own. It's very easy to do and will last longer.

I bought this one for my Xperia Z3 (5.15in screen) because it was the highest rated on Amazon at the time. It's way better than the free Volvo cardboard I had before, but not sure how that compares to I Am Cardboard.

I see a lot of complaints about reduced FOV on the plastic ones, but the Volvo cardboard was zoomed so tight that you don't even come close to seeing the borders of your phone, so there are a ton of wasted pixels, and everything looks like shit. The FOV on the plastic pair is almost perfect. It's wide enough that moving my eyes to the extreme left and right, I can just barely look past the screen borders at the far sides with the center of my vision. The image is also way clearer as a result.

u/phoenixdigita1 · 2 pointsr/virtualreality

VR Covers for either Vive or Rift would be essential for a both hygiene and comfort.

Something you may not have considered is that frail people have frail skin and you are going to want to make sure that you are not putting too much pressure on that skin causing irritation or bruising/tearing. More importantly for people on blood thinners. Sure those of us who have been using both the Vive and the Rift don't have issues but we also don't have fragile skin. Incase someone pipes up with "My grandma/grandpa didn't have issues" Not every old person is the same.

Keep that in mind when choosing a headset and covers. You want maximum comfort and ease of putting on and taking off.

Foam

The Vive currently has softer foam with the Rift's being quite hard. Covers should resolve this for both headsets. Some third party sellers even offer softer foam.

https://vrcover.com/

Even the Gear VR foam was pretty rough on my dads skin.

And maybe even hygiene covers
https://www.amazon.com/Hygiene-VR-headset-Oculus-PlayStation/dp/B01DHKBVQQ

Integrated Headphones

Don't underestimate integrated headhpones as this will make putting on and taking off the headset really easy. The Vive will have these soon so that will not be an issue in the longer term. The way both flip up allows them to still hear you giving instructions while also hearing the experience in VR.

Wireless Signals

The comment someone else made before about certain areas of hospitals not allowing wireless devices. Keep that in mind. Even ignorant doctors might freak out for those with pacemakers or other medical devices. Sure it will likely not affect them but you are not going to get anywhere arguing with a doctor who decides if you are allowed into their institution or not.

Both headseats use wireless comms unless you used the Rift with a Wired XBox Controller. The XBox controller might be a bit confusing for the elderly. The Rift Remote might be simpler however does use low power wireless comms. That said it looks like a simple remote so might past scrutiny from ill informed doctors.

Seated experiences

You will only need one lighthouse or Rift sensor for seated experiences so both headsets are on par for simplicity of setup. The Vive will need a very short setup config when you move the lighthouses and the Rift will not (for one sensor). It is an insignificant step on the Vive but worth pointing out if you are moving it every 15 minutes from bed to bed.

And as another poster said. Lets not turn this thread into a Rift/Vive debate as both headsets will work great. Keep that at the door this topic is about helping frail people not justifying your purchase. Obviously pointing out pros/cons for a hospice environment are encouraged of course.

i just got a BOBO v4 clone (virtoba X5 elite - identical model but without headphones for half the price $25 on amazon) and it's leaps better than my old shitty cardboard 2 which was like 15 bucks to begin with


cardboard is heavily moddable but it's just not sturdy enough, it will stain easily from sweat, it doesnt cover your whole face and lets too much light in to be engrossing, the colors will fade wherever your face sits, and the lenses will shift around and become scratched to shit by your eye lashes


it's probably the best you're going to get until you get to an gearvr/oculus/vive. This is coming from somebody who has tested both the oculus and vive.

I really can't figure out how you could make it better (maybe better/bigger lenses, better button) without going into gear VR territory where either you get one built specifically for your phone or like an oculus/vive where it's got electronics inside

Just keep in mind the FOV/experience depends a LOT on your phone. I have a massive Nexus 6 but still can't get the advertised 120 degree FOV - but even still, i prefer more of the "scuba mask" effect since it feels more real.

u/president_josh · 2 pointsr/GearVR

I paid over $850 long ago for a Note 5 so i could experience Gear VR. The Note 5's display broke so I bought a used S6 for $200.

I use the following cooling fan and the S6 will not overheat.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KPTSQ4W/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I2YYE48FAL7ZX&colid=RZMBCA14K6EL

I don't know if it's possible for S7s and S8s to overheat, but if they do, the fan is the solution for those phones too. Why spend 10, 15 or 30 minutes in VR when you can stay there as long as you like -- on an S6 or Note 5. The new Gear VR controller even works with the S6.

Since I haven't tried an S7 or S8, I don't know performance-wise how much I'd gain by upgrading to an S8 when it comes to VR. Cooling's my main concern and the fan keeps the S6 and Note 5 cool. You could go the gel pack route and put those in the Gear VR, but a one-time payment of $35 for the fan eliminates that headache.

The fan is a cover that looks like the Gear VR's original over. You snap the fan cover on the Gear VR, cut it on and you're done. Without that fan, my S6 will overheat in 15 minutes or less. That time may be different for different phone owners. From what I've read, some people can use an S6 in the Gear VR for longer periods of time without a fan running.

I did notice a slightly bigger FOV on the Note 5 but it's not that significant. Back in the day, even Carmack said the FOV between those two phones wasn't that big of a deal -- even thought the Note 5's bigger.
Here's one review of the fan from the review page..
--

Very impressed! A friend and I both have the same phone, so we put this to the test. I put the Fan on my Gear VR at the start of play, and we played the game Wands against each other. After about 8 matches, his phone was very hot and starting to jitter. I took mine out and it was cool to the touch. Normally, mine would be in the same shape as his.

I've invested some €30 in this VR cable solution: link amazon . It works pretty well, though you can still get tangled up in the cable when you tend to turn too much in one direction compared to the other (apparently, I much prefer to turning to the left for some reason). It does get the cable successfully out of your feet however. All in all it's worth the price I'd say. As I live in Europe, I bought it on amazon.de .

u/caltheon · 2 pointsr/Vive

And the US link https://www.amazon.com/Retractable-Management-Headset-MDW-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM $26 USD, might have to give this a try. My only concern is my ceiling is really high in my VR room. I may need to suspend the pulleys somehow.

I've got a 6ft hdmi extender, 6ft USB 3.0 extender, two 3M (style) hooks, four retractable key chain holders, and two cheapo carabiners.

Besides the Cable extenders I got everything (except the cable extensions from the ¥100 Daiso (dollar store in the U.S) for under Ten bucks.

Other people with VR that have came over and seen my setup have followed suit.

Their is also a simalar setup on Amazon for $25.99 though that seems to be way to much for what little is included.

Nice my ceiling is not textured so it would defo work for me and I knew this existed but did not know you could get it as a whole package instead of combining a bunch of smaller purchases from different sources.

u/Pyrostasis · 2 pointsr/Vive

Got my vive about 2 weeks ago and have been pounding away trying to get the tech kinks removed so I can reliably record and stream it. Figured I'd share some of my personal issues and my fixes for them.

First off my tech specs.

AMD Threadripper 1950x
32 gigs of Gskills 3600 ram
1080 GTX
HTC Vive + Audio strap

First issue I ran into was being able to reliably capture the video in OBS. The monitor usually displays a stretch image that doesnt easily conform to 1920x1080. You can mirror the display but then you are looking at 2 eyes and thats even worse.

This plugin allows you to use the mirrored eyes, strip one, and then make that perfectly fit 1920x1080.

Another issue is being able to see twitch chat while playing. Sure you can open up desktop mode but reading that can be a pain in the ass.

Twitch chat overlay fixed that. You can place chat on a hand or in the world, makes it convenient and limits immersive breakage.

Only other issues Im having that make recording a struggle is audio issues (2 mics and 2 headsets), No access to stream deck, no easy access to streamlabs, and cable management.

I'm trying a pulley system attached to the ceiling but I still somehow manage to get caught up in there still in Pavlov and Robo Recall... really any game that requires fast 360's with your body and not controllers.

Any of you found a way to get streamlabs, streamdeck, or cable management on 360's would love to hear it!

Cant wait till HTC releases their wireless setup. Hope that is solid.

u/Symplicified · 2 pointsr/Vive

I can't find a way to link this video, but I found it on an Amazon Product and he shows the "mod" he used for it to rotate easier. I'll just link the Amazon product, the video is in the reviews.

u/KillerInYourCloset · 2 pointsr/oculus

Save yourself! And your Rift!

I have this and it works great. My only suggestion is to go to an outdoor store and buy some of the small aluminum climbing pulleys so the cable doesn't bind.

I got 3 of these

I have two of the reels on the ceiling and one on the wall to keep tension. I do not notice these when I use it (I use rift at least 2 hours a day for exercise with BoxVR and Beat Saber).

u/captroper · 2 pointsr/ValveIndex

Yeah, i had this one set up downstairs until I got the wireless adapter. It's not perfect, but it is a huge improvement over the cable being on the floor. Apart from the obvious never tripping on it (that rarely happened anyways) it's pretty helpful for doing full circles, like when going up a staircase in skyrim for instance. With the distance that I had in my room there was a bit of tugging when I got close to the boundaries, but otherwise it worked pretty well.

And now I’m contemplating a cable management system vs a foam floor (kids type with puzzle piece assembly). Gaffers tape around the foam floor. Then shoes off.

Lots of mixed reviews about cable management systems. I have essentially unlimited ceiling height, and am eying a swivel. I’m imaginging running a ratchet strap up across the play space (tight) and then attaching the swivel to the strap at midpoint and adding a block to the cable so it doesn’t slide through the swivel too far.

u/Icehoodedfox · 2 pointsr/ValveIndex

I use these . They were like 15 bucks and they work great.

Set it up so that the cable is over your head and you won’t hit it when you rotate around, the reels allow you to move a few feet in every direction without issue.

This combined with turn signal completely changed my Pavlov and In Death experiences; no more tripping over/keeping track of cables or having to use the joystick to turn around all the time!

u/deathmonkeyz · 2 pointsr/oculus

A lot of people, including myself have done this. I had mixed results with the original Rift personally, but it seems to work a lot better with the S possibly because the cable is heavier.

You can get retractable cable hooks on amazon. Having a retractable system will allow you to crouch without pulling on the cable/hook

u/FolkSong · 2 pointsr/oculus

The easiest way is to just buy a ready-made kit like this one (which I personally use):

https://www.amazon.com/Managment-Suspension-Playstation-Microsoft-Accessories/dp/B0777H24ZG

u/TheRealBabyCave · 2 pointsr/Vive
u/no6969el · 2 pointsr/oculus
u/Scoutdad · 2 pointsr/oculus

For cable management, I use this one and like it a lot. The o rings in a prusik knot are great for gently griping the cable but the small hooks for the rings are not great for taking it down for seated games. I added cheap carabiners to make it real easy. Some systems just loop the cable trough a carabiner and that is not ideal but the combo of the two is perfect. So that one you are looking at would be fine just picking up some 2” diameter o-rings.

For my space, I have the cable run up the wall and across the ceiling using cable clips then near center room start using the badge holders. I use three towards opposite wall, then about 18” from wall loop back towards center of playspace using 2 more and stopping about 18” before center so cable is behind my head. Think a “J” configuration.

Works for me but you may need to modify based on your space.

Get Cable Guardian for rotation management so you don’t twist up your cable. Just search this sub for it.

I just use a 3M Command hooks on the wall for my HMD and controllers, works for me as there is no chance for knocking the HMD over. But if on the shelf works best for you that stand should work or just use a shoebox.

u/Sabbathius · 2 pointsr/oculus

I put another loop on the strap just above the wheel, and ran the cable through it. That ring is a little loose, but not too loose, and it is held to the strap by a thick elastic, so it has a bit of a give to it. That helped. And the rest of the cable is suspended from the cords across the ceiling on those small extending cable thingies, like these: https://www.amazon.com/Managment-Suspension-Playstation-Microsoft-Accessories/dp/B0777H24ZG

In general I do try to limit my spinning around. It sucks, but the cable on Rift S is just too thick and rigid for it.

u/Farcery · 2 pointsr/ValveIndex
u/closeded · 2 pointsr/skyrimvr

Or just get these.

There's nothing you did in that video that I can't do just as comfortably with my Index.

Would I rather have wireless? Yeah.

Is it worth getting a headset that's more expensive and in every other way inferior, so that I don't have to untwist my cable every hour or so? No.

u/whitebean · 2 pointsr/ValveIndex

I have a ceiling fan overhead. So I bought a lighting boom and extend my cable overhead with that.

I attached this boom to this mount, to the top of my entertainment center. And then used the same cable management everyone sells... I grabbed this one.

u/E_l_0 · 2 pointsr/SteamVR

Here on reddit there are several threads of people describing their solution.
Personally I'm using these (https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0777H24ZG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to keep the cable constantly above me.

I'm using two of them in series and this makes the resistance you get from those things barely noticeable - except on the very edge of my play area.

Regarding the "future of VR" I'd assume there will be 2 device categories (analog to PC / Notebooks).
One is designed for high-end performance / low weight the other one for mobility / ease of use - You just can't do both aspects without compromising ....

u/Puterman · 2 pointsr/Vive

I bought one of the under-$20 cable management kits (retractable keychains and rubber bands, really). It changed my experience to the point that I decided I didn't really need wireless.

Edit: this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0777H24ZG

u/artemisdragmire · 2 pointsr/Vive

This is exactly how my setup is. I run 2 sequences of 3 in my apartment with a huge vaulted ceiling.

It works great.

I've had it for about a week now and I've only actually tangled the cables themselves once, and honestly, it was on me.

Just be careful about giving yourself enough/too much slack. I've had to make adjustments on mine to keep me from smacking the headset cable during big downward swipes in BeatSaber, for example.

I may eventually add a third set of these, the 2 tend to create a little too much hanging slack.

I would recommend /u/BHPhreak go with these cables, and just go overboard on them. They're super cheap, just order more than you think you'd ever need, that way even if one breaks or something, you can quickly replace it. (though, they seem super sturdy)

EDIT - I used these, by the way.

Can I recommend getting some different pulleys? These are $16 on Amazon and don't require any tensioning out-of-the-box.

Tip: for the pulley right above your head (or if you need more reach in general), chain multiple pulleys together. That way you get a longer reach if your ceilings are high.

u/Sinistyr1 · 2 pointsr/oculus

I have to jam the Rift S interface up against my face in order to get any decent FOV (yes, I put the eye relief all the way to my face and THEN put on the headset) and even then it's not enough. To me the Rift S is a big difference (especially top to bottom) from the CV1 (which I also have but I love the clarity/SDE/no sensors of the Rift S ) . If I take the facial interface off it's substantially different, but obviously not ideal from both a comfort and light bleed standpoint. I don't think the VRCover would really benefit me in any way in this regard as it would seem to pull my eyes further from the lens and reduce FOV.

However, I just stumbled onto this on Amazon. I think it's a fairly new product as it only has 2 reviews and the video is only a week old (links below).

Looks like AMVR has come up with a complete replacement for both the facial interface as well as the front and back pads (not that I care too much about those). Another reason I think it's a new product is that I was unable to find ANY Youtuber reviews on this but I wonder if it does anything for the FOV. From the video it looks about the same dimensions as the stock Oculus faceplate but I'm curious.

I'm thinking of purchasing this. Does anyone else have any experience with this product as of yet? Only 2 reviews and both aren't particularly stellar either so that doesn't instill me with confidence....

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X4VQJ34/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have 3 others on the way.

These two - simple. one was super hot - and also required you to stick a nose guard in with adhesive.. granted it came with an adhesive sticker - but I don't want to do that.. plus it really made me hot.

The other - was flimsy - and felt like just a lite cloth.. that didn't really do anything at all....

So I sent both back -- and ordered 3 more...

I will let ya know if any of them are good.

u/Hussmannus · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

Its suprisingly comfy! Tho I reckon it will be a tad varm and sticky during long hot play sessions. Luckily for me I live in Sweden, where its getting colder already ;)

u/maxcovergold · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

Thank you for this. Found the same product on Amazon UK for £14. UK Link

This is exactly what I need for demoing to people, looks like it slides on and off over the existing interface for easy cleaning.

You can pick up some [decent travel cases] (https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07SWVJJXN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) on Amazon for like £25, handy for bringing the Quest around with you. I also got a silicone face mask for playing games with my friends. It's easy to take the silicone off and give it a quick wash & dry if there's too much sweat etc. There's also earbuds like this but those ones I bought have a lot of hiss. Oculus offer their official ones which might work better.

u/Talton1 · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

Same with me, get a pretty damn good red ring around the eyes haha!

Might I suggest you get yourself a Silicone foam cover for the more casual games:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07WPHB3BT

Really helped reduce the itching after 10 mins, me and VR face foams have never gotten along.

u/Wiknetti · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

I’d recommend a good silicone cover for the fabric part that comes in contact with your face, especially if you get sweaty or oily.

Like this one , but you can browse around for cheaper vendors. These also block out extra light from coming into the headset from the nose.

Also. Biggest tip, adjust your head straps properly. The back straps should cradle the back of your head and you shouldn’t feel a lot of pressure to your face.

u/Thoraxe474 · 1 pointr/OculusQuest
u/MurkLurker · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

I recently got this one: AMAZON link to Esimen VR Face cover

Don't make the stupid mistake I made and remove the foam cover that came with the Quest and replace it with this. These are meant to go OVER the original mask. ;)

u/larsonmattr · 1 pointr/OculusQuest

I'd recommend this face cover (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WVCBN25/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1). It's quite comfortable compared to what shipped with the Quest.

i was making a thread about this but i think its being found annoying.


ill just link everything but i think i have it all down and a small explainer


on ali express for 1/2 the price

this came with with the used quest i got.i dig it. i bought a $3 bootleg off this off ali and basically wanted to see how i felt after that. it never came in yet
https://www.studioformcreative.com/product-page/go-quest-deluxe-strap-black


the power bank most are getting. the usbc port draws 3.0amp. the quest itself draws 2.8A so the battery can tread water and deplete itself first before going to quest's reserves. the usb-a port draws 2.4A so uusing that would slowly drain both, i think but extend everything
https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerCore-10000mAh-Portable-Delivery/dp/B07PXMF52C/


i did some looking and this just came out and satisfied all my needs. same size as above anker, 3.0A on usbc and 3.0A on its usb-a, so i basically have a choice which port i'd want to use and not be worse off. ive read someone you dont want to quick charge a battery if you can help it. also, i ended up buying some short 1 ft usba to usbc cables off ali and i cant return them so i was like may as well. ravpower is basically brand 2 or 3 compared to anker's 1, so this is fine. power bank is so new reviews are trickling in now
https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Charger-RAVPower-10000mAh-Delivery/dp/B07Y9QYCDC


1ft (30cm) cable came in the mail though and i realized its about 2 inches longer than my head, and i have a big head. but thats not long at all, so im going to do the aesthetic then and go for 10 inch cables, which is 25cm. also getting right angle usb connecter to stress the port less and just make it look cooler


all these took awhile to find but also look cool but also be in 3a, supposedly

u/fudorekz12 · 1 pointr/oculus

If you own a smartphone, you can get the cardboard VR for less $5-$10. Download couple VR apps from the app store and experience a RIFT like virtual reality.

Here's one at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Cardboard-Valencia-Quality-Virtual-Reality/dp/B00LQ6ICJ8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412292694&sr=8-1&keywords=cardboard+vr

u/Phaedrus0230 · 1 pointr/EliteDangerous

Google Cardboard is a pretty sick tech demo, but its not something I want to use for as long as I want to play ED haha. That link actually details setup for ED specifically, and it most certainly includes headtracking! Although mine slowly drifts to the left, which is pretty annoying. You can actually use the application to stream anything, and it can do "fake 3d" so you can take any random media file and play it on a virtualized big screen.

If you're interested in VR and have a decent phone, check it out. You can get a variety of headsets that accomplish the same thing, or make your own out of cardboard! They have some nice ones that have headstraps and everything though. Well worth a couple bucks to get a taste of VR. I'm so very tempted to get a rift, but I'm trying to wait for the consumer version. The app is free to try it out, but it'll stop after 10 minutes unless you pay for the full version ($6 and change... worth it again.) I'll warn you though, text is basically unreadable and I haven't quite gotten the aspect ratio right, but these things are correctable. I'm using a nexus 4 with it, but I'm sure its better on newer phones with higher resolutions.

I've found some print-outs (like this one), but I'm a fan of tailoring it to my own needs. I may take a look for ideas though.

I have tried this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MHSPNH8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Which nearly holds it but with my Spigen case it doesn't. Also no magnetic switch is bullshit.

I've also tried this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MJPS6VO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Which holds it beautifully and has a headstrap and magnetic switch but didn't come with the center panel to separate the two sides from each eye and for some reason I get double vision with it. Just can't get the rollercoaster tracks to line up no matter how crosse-eyed/strained I get.

Regular google cardboard worked the best but the flap wouldn't close around it and it had no headstrap.

I'm just hoping google offers a plastic version with a magnetic switch and headstrap and then pairs it with their bluetooth controller in the play store. #TakeMyMoney

u/RobKhonsu · 1 pointr/virtualreality

In addition to the VRCovers (which I recommend the sport/fake leather cover), There are also disposable covers which should probably be mentioned. I've seen some generic all-purpose white covers on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Hygiene-VR-headset-Oculus-PlayStation/dp/B01DHKBVQQ?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0

I think you're supposed to loop those around your ears then place the HMD on.

I also know HTC will be selling disposable covers for the Vive very shortly. You can already get them in the UK if you can stomach their insane shipping. Hopefully they'll be available state-side shortly (and sensible shipping options in the UK).

u/SpaceNavy · 1 pointr/Vive

You mentioned covers for sweaty games. Can you recommend any?

I'm especially interested to know if there are any disposable types. I've heard of people using some for VR demos but I can never track down somewhere to buy them.

BoboVR is a pretty popular choice. I use a galaxy 6 edge+ which has a nearly identical screen and have use the BoboVR with it. It comes with or without headphones too which is pretty cool as well.

Not sure where you are located, but here are some examples:

Without Headphones - https://www.amazon.com/Virtoba-X5-Elite-Headset-Smartphones/dp/B01H35AU3G/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1485561965&sr=8-7&keywords=bobovr

Many vendor rebrand the same headset, so don't let the name difference fool you. They are all off the same assembly line but with different names stamped on them. As long as they look to be the same, they are.

I got the ones without headphones cause I prefer to use wireless headphones instead from the PC.

EDIT - I can't compare it to the viewmaster as I have not used it, so I don't know if it's any better or worse.. sorry.

If you can find the white 2015 gear vr headset you can order this from amazon to handle the S6 heat issue. I used this constantly before I upgraded to an S7 and it stopped my overheating issues.

u/fallingdowndizzyvr · 1 pointr/oculus

That was the beauty of the original GearVR compared to everything that followed. It had that removal cover that fit over the phone after it was mounted. So it was easy to DIY a little fan onto that cover to cool down the phone. For people that don't DIY, there were commercial solutions. With the fan on there, there is no overheating.

I'll just mention stuff I've tried myself.

If money is no object, multiple monitors or at least headless ghosts are ironically useful in virtual desktop applications like Bigscreen. I run 3x2560x1600 in one large screen. Bigscreen has an update coming for multiple monitors too. Big physical screens are nice for spectators/multiplayer.

Until the wireless adapter comes out, a decently long displayport cable and longer USB cable running to the link box to cover the large play area and if you have an original Vive, the new 3-in-1 cable with a sleeve.

I've been looking at [this overhead pulley thing](https://www.amazon.com/MDW-Retractable-Management-Headset-Adhesive/dp/B01M6EB8DM/
) but I haven't actually tried it yet.

Two Vives would be good, you can run them off the same 2 base stations and partition the space with chaperone. I run a Rift and a Vive in the same room.

u/eaudaemon · 1 pointr/PSVR

one way to prevent that problem is to organize your cables, I preferred my cables to be coming from the ceiling so I got something like this so that I won't trip on them and less tangles. If sticking stuffs on the ceiling isn't an option I've heard some people use something like an old lamp stand that they run the cables on by putting some velcro or something to hold them in place, and you could take it out and store in somewhere if not in use

u/JudgeGroovyman · 1 pointr/WindowsMR

There are several of those on Amazon (search for VR cable management).

Any advice on cable? I am constantly worried about picking a 'bad one' I can never tell if one is going to be crap or not...

The original version has the problem you mention. Now they include a square of "sticky" designed to go between the clear plastic hooks and the wall/ceiling. Using that makes everything stay perfectly. Just remove the backing on one side, stick it where you want it, remove the other sides backing and the backing on the hook... press and done.

This works too.

Been using it for both my rift and vive without issues.

Truly the best way to play.

u/thecolossalfossil · 1 pointr/Vive

I use these - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M6EB8DM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

​

I have the cable running along the center of the ceiling about 1.5" from the ceiling itself so it doesn't interfere with the light I have up there. The cable itself is strapped to the headset strap at the point of the crown of my head (towards the back). If it's further up, it tends to feel like someone is pulling on a hat straight up. If it's further back, it tends to have too much slack and gets in the way.

​

I also use the new version (less stiff) of the cable. You want to make sure you leave some good slack. I have the breakout box on the wall itself. This way, the cable is entirely suspended from the ceiling. The computer has it's own set of cables that go up the wall into the breakout box.

​

Couple of things I do want to point out.

​

  1. If you are playing a game that forces you to cross each of your arms paths, there is a chance that the opposite arm's controller will get hooked onto the retractable lead (not the vive cable itself). This is bad because it will jerk your head if you make a swift action. I haven't had it happen too many times and I've had the setup for a year. The very few times I felt I got caught, I paused the game and fixed it.

    ​

  2. You will need to use some kind of cable tracking system in the vive that tracks rotations. Otherwise, the cable will begin to bind and pull on you a little bit. I use Turn Signal for this. Nice little VR overlay onto the floor showing you how many times you have spun around (rotating the cable).
u/vanfanel1car · 1 pointr/oculus

Yeah, I have extensions to mine with the extensions wrapped in this:

With the extra slack it's not as bad. Others have opted to suspend the cords on the ceiling using retracable cables like this:

> Forgot to answer, I have about 5 foot of space. Another question, is there anyway to have the headsets wireless or are the forced wired? And if so is there any negatives or benefits from having it wireless vice versa

This may be a factor that ends up making the HMD decision for you if it matters that much.

Both the Vive and the Rift have wireless options. The option for the Rift (and it's also made for the Vive) is called the TPCast and is a ~$300 option. Note that the Vive and Rift versions are not interchangeable. Also note that the TPCast is an excellent proof of concept but has some technical issues that, in my opinion, mean it isn't ready for prime time. I had one and returned it.

That said, HTC has launched an official wireless solution that's much more polished. It is $300 and requires a PCIe card to function, unlike the TPCast which was a wireless/ethernet-based solution. However, it appears to be the real deal.

Note that there are also cable management solutions that do a reasonably decent job of keeping cables out of the way, assuming they're long enough. I'm currently using something like this. However, the included retractable devices aren't really strong enough unless they are spaced together closely or more than one is at a specific point and then you plan how your cable will be supported and where it will coil as it gets retracted. There are better retractable key rings than the ones this kit includes (these ones are designed for key cards rather than keys, so they're weaker) so I may replace them. Also, the sticky pads won't stay sticky forever and come off textured surfaces almost immediately. I ended up screwing them into ceiling joists in my basement, which is where my VR is usually set up. I'll probably upgrade to the wireless solution when it becomes available because I like quality of life improvements to VR, but it's by no means a necessary expense. I'd recommend putting that money toward a good video card and an inexpensive cable management setup rather than getting a cheap video card so you can go wireless.

For roomscale I use my cable hanging from the ceilling using this (FreestepVR).

I think I won't really notice while playing roomscale games, but for seated experiences I'll need to find another solution. The Microsoft Motion Vector Reprojection works like the asynchronous spacewarp (ASW) from Oculus? At least with Oculus your fps drops to half the refresh rate when ASW kicks in, how does it work with the reverb?

Not to sure about the twisting aspect but it shouldn't be much work to pull the cable, straighten it all out, and pass it through the hoops again.

Anyone have any thoughts of the overhead pully system? How good is this for walking around and around and around and around in circles with this? I imagine it's still not good for the cables.

I picked up these from MICROCENTER - AMAZON LINK

then used a Large 3M Command Strip lare plastic hook.

How i mounted them is I have 4 of them mounted on my ceiling.
2 are always in the loop. while the other two i take the cable off the mounts when not in use.

How i did it was i stood in the center of where i would be standing for VR. Put a mount there. Then traced back to where the cable starts from the Link box i put on the wall. I am not at home so can't provide photos. But overall. Start from the play space center and work your way back to the link box

Only difference is I attached them using command adhesive white Velcro so I can take them down and leave the velcro up for easy re-attaching without having the retracts hanging all the time. The velcro is attached on the flat side and the opening points out to the side, not down. Hasn't been an issue for me

u/DdCno1 · 1 pointr/Games

You start to develop a sort of sixth sense for where the cable is and how it's wrapped around your feet. It's much less intrusive than you might think. Reaching the edge of your play area is considerably more annoying.

There are also ways to suspend the cable. With a WMR headset, all you'd have to worry about is a single cable that's plugged directly into your PC. For added comfort, there are now front panels with the required USB 3.0 and HDMI ports.

u/RulerOfTheFreeWorld · 1 pointr/oculus

That sucks that you had such a negative experience and I can see how it would be discouraging. Fortunately everyone didn't have to go through that. Personally, I've had a reasonably trouble free experience, with the exception of some bad patches from Oculus and the usb power settings in windows (patching). With the DK2 and CV1, I've had day long sessions in the headset with no discomfort or issues (Elite Dangerous). I got the Rift S shortly after it came out due to flickering in my CV1, but I'm not convinced that wasn't some patching issue and I just haven't hooked it back up to try since getting the Rift S. Cable management with the Rift S was handled easily by mounting some hanging hooks from the ceiling ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MT7VF26/) using adhesive pads that works great, took less than 10 minutes to setup and cost less than $20. I do agree about the audio though on the Rift S/Quest... I dislike the lack of headphones built in like the CV1. Eventually I'll get some 3d printed connectors and cannibalize some headphones. For me, the Quest is great for short trips into VR or just exposing friends to VR, but the discomfort due to the unbalanced weight distribution in longer sessions is a deal breaker for use as my primary headset...even with the potential of the connectivity to a PC using the new cable and improved latency over existing streaming.

​

Bottom line, you found something you like and works for you, so that's awesome!

I got mine off Amazon a few days ago and it's absolutely horrendous, the nose pad doesn't keep the light out, it's supposed to be attached with a sticky pad that wasn't included, the face plate is a bit loose and doesn't attach properly on the bottom and if you wear glasses it pulls your glasses of when you take the quest off.

Seconded. I own the black model with an S7 Edge (which is better for cooling), and I still had overheating issues. There's only one cover out for 2016 (black) cooling that just came out, and it's pricey at $45 (but nice).
