Virtual Desktop now allows passing eye/face tracking data over, so both work with VD now! Thanks so much for the detailed tutorial, it's been a nightmare maintaining calibration of 8x trackers + knuckles without continuous calibration!

I just wanted to say thanks for the video. I got the Quest Pro when the price dropped and got back into VR way more than I thought I would, especially VRChat. I decided I wanted to go FBT but wasn't sure how feasible it would be. I only knew I didn't want to go with a full index kit due to the amount I had spent on the Pro and the fact that I had already discovered with previous headsets that being tethered all the time sucked. I had resigned myself to waiting for the HTC standalone trackers or slime trackers. Instead, I basically replicated the setup in the video with 3 base stations, 4 tundra trackers (the extra one going to headset continuous calibration like in the video) , and just added the knuckles. It's pricey to do, but if you got the cash or already have some base stations or trackers it can lessen the pain. I do have a nice PC but I was shocked how well everything is working together so far. I was expecting a lot more friction with the setup and a lot of software bugs, instead things so far have just worked. It isn't even too hard to get setup as long as you have a little bit of computer savvy. Edit: Oh, one other tip. If you're like me and part of the reason for going this direction is full wireless FBT/FaceTrack, you can buy an AMVR Neck Battery or two. They are comfortable enough to wear for a while and extend battery life for the headset a couple hours.

UPDATE!! I made a mistake when plugging the Power Injector Hub into my computer. I plugged it into the aux USB-C port in front of the computer. Once I plugged it into the back of the computer's USB-C port directly into the motherboard it is working perfectly. Completely charging the Pro without disconnecting Link!! Whoooo hooooo!! User errorrrrrrrr!! lol

I can't believe I didn't think of a power injector hub... Thanks for the video!

awesome video man, im gonna consider the quest pro more now, thank you for sharing all this info

Hey man! This is awesome! I have a Pro on the way, one thing I didn't hear or see about were watchmen dongles. I know the index can be used as one just by not logging in the DVI connector. I might get a tundra tracker for that continuous calibration. First time I have heard of it and seems like the solution I needed. One time calibration would mess up during game play and my left hand would be lower than where it is. Also AMVR has a link cable with power injection that keeps the headset power at 78%, but it doesn't mention Quest pro only Quest 2. So I hope that works.

What an awesome video man. Seriously, thank you!!!

thank you SO much omg i was looking for something like this.

Thank you very much for the video!

This is awesome. One question I have is whether you can use all of this to port over hand tracking from the Quest Pro for V-Tubing in lieu of the valve knuckles.

The Power injector hub worked at first. But then when the Quest Pro reached near 100% power the unit shut off, causing the HMD to lose link connection over and over. Also, y'all should be really careful about using the power injector. I read on the Quest site that power charging the battery can damage it. Not sure how reliable that info is, but for the price of the Pro, I'm not sure I want to risk it. Great video!

everything works like a charm with face + eye +full body tracking (vrcft), the only problem i have is low fps for some reason, it fluctuates from 30 to 80fps up and down,i get motion sickness from it, my specs are 4090,i7 12gen, 32gb ram , questpro + 9 vive trackers + index knuckles, is it because steamvr on top of oculus link or am i missing some steps? pls help solved i managed to do abit experiment,success edit: incase any one got the same problem as mine, you just have to disable ASW ,i used VRFSR to disable it, and changed the 'game u playing'.exe (example VRchat.exe) to high priority and EAC to low priority in task manager>detail. i got constant 80 to 90fps on vrc ;')

Can I ask what head strap and and forehead pad mod are you using with your quest pro? the combined package looks amazing and I have not yet ordered a head pad mod which was next on my list but the way you have yours looks better and more comfortable that what mine will from the ones I am looking at, and I have also pretty much replaced my Index with the quest pro and currently use Index controllers with a Vive Tracker on the back of mine for the same style of constant calibration, I absolutely love the face and eye tracking built in to the HMD, and the lenses are amazing!

Cool video with good info, I just got a pro and have to look at my settings as of tests im not impressed with it

I'm running into one issue using Index controllers + python script. A few minutes into any session, i'll get the quest pro popup saying 'controller not tracked' that wont go away for the entirety of my play session. I haven't found any fixes or reports of this online, did you run into this issue? Everything else works great with FBT, Index knuckles, QP. Thanks again!

I purchased the pro today and steam vr works without issue for me . Half life looks soid good coming from rift s

Thank you so much for the video. What latency do you get when playing Beat Saber over Link? I noticed a huge difference in terms of "floatiness" compared to the Index -- to me it felt like there was a noticeable delay in everything. Do you have the same issue, or did you get around it in any way?

Will you be getting a Quest 3? I think many would appreciate an updated video going over this process for the Quest 3. May I ask what mount that is you are using for the tundra tracker?

I'm late but are the lighthouse tracker the 3 pointy things on the quest pro? or are they the box devices??? kinda new to the whole full body tracking thing

Thank you a lot! You made my life much more easier, I did everything what you said and it works perfectly! Only two things, I didn't figure out why my Index or Htc controllers not working, steam vr doesn't see them while I using Meta pro headset. And second hand tracking not working on pcvr, vrchat etc. Is there any solutions?

Have you had any luck at hiding the heaset tracker from apps like VRChat? For me it links to neck(? maybe shoulders ?) and causes weird arm movements when looking sideways, which kinda breaks the avatar.

Newer PC motherboards now have 40w-60w charging on USB-c ports, if you have that you don't need to worry about the first one.

Hii, I had no problems connecting Meta Quest 2 via Virtual Desktop Streamer (5hz). I just turn on the Quest, Run Virtual Desktop, run SlimeVr server(I use this for FBT), run SteamVR and im good to go. The quest 2 i charge via normal type C charger with regular (using normal socket). Should it work the same way if I upgrade Quest 2 to QuestPro? Does it charge connected to socket via USB C cable to socket while playing?

Trying to do this with quest 2. When I turn on my trackers and turn on link I still gotta go through the oculus dash first. Is there a way to get straight into steam?

hey, amazing video! I have one question, what is the brand of your top custom strap and/or facial gasket and back support? I have been looking for a top strap like the index's top strap and for the life of me i can't find it anywhere! Your one is perfect, Thank you in advance!

What are you using to stick the Tundra Tracker to the Quest Pro?

So do you have a version for Quest 3? Or just for Quest Pro? I really want to get into VR and I was looking at some kind of Quest since I’m clumsy and don’t want to get tangled in cables, but I really REALLY want the finger tracking from the Index Knuckles because it looks like a lot of fun on things like Blade & Sorcery.

Can you tell me what you used to mount the tundra tracker to your Quest Pro? edit: I'm trying to look for a setup where I can remove the tracker easily so I can lay back on my chair for simple media watching.

Tundra Tracker had a lot of drifting for me when using it as the reference for continuous calibration.

What mount did you use to add the tundra tracker to your headset? I am looking at potentially buying this setup to replace my old WMR headset and I am currently tallying up all the things I need. Thank you!

Question for you: Does the tracker need to be visible all the time while playing? any oculusion problems by having the tracker at the back of your head? If I have two lighthouses in front of me, will they struggle if the tundra tracker is behind the headset?

So to get the knuckles controllers to work with a different headset you just need the openvr space calibrator and the normal calibration? No lighthouses? If it works well I might buy the tundra tracker. Would it work with a cheaper tracker like the slimevr pucks? Thanks for all the info man.

also for the power solution to keep it charged i got a pcie usb-c card by startech to plug into a pcie slot on my motherboard and it connects to the power supply as well so it charges as i play

Regarding disabling the Quest Pro controllers: why bother with modifying drivers via scripts? Can't you just toss the controllers into a closed metal box or faraday bag to block all tx/rx?

Minisoporu device will not work with the quest 2 unfortunately. I cant get it to charge while connecting despite setting it up identically to your set up. Any suggestions or it only works with pro

Hey, I know this video is a bit old but... Can you tell me what cable are you using? I wanna buy a good usb c to usb c cable to use with the Minisopuru hub to charge the quest while playing. Do I just get the official one?

The hub itself doesnt seem to be working for me, which is my main reason im stumbling across this video. However. Using a powered usb hub is something i didnt think of at all. So i will try to find another usb hub that might be able to keep it charged! Will reply to this comment if i find one.

I mightve missed it but did you ever describe what you attached the tracker with. I'm trying to copy it but can only think of using a command strip to velcro it on

where do i get a mount like that for the back of my headset so i can mount a tracker to the back of my headset?

Holy, its a chunky Ryan Gosling

Don’t you need some kind of usb antenna or something to pick up the valve index controllers? If you don’t already own a index headset ?

I'm having a strange issue with this setup... I have the exact same gear as you, tundra trackers and all. But after I follow this video, step by step (including installing everything fresh), I'm still getting this issue: when I pair my index controllers to steamvr, it only let's me pair ONE tundra tracker. If I pair all three tundras first, it won't let me pair the index controllers. Keeps saying "you must turn off current controllers to add new ones". What's stranger is that this issue vanishes if I enable and use the Quest Pro controllers instead, all the trackers work with the QP controllers. Any suggestions?

Hello, is there a way to turn off the Quest Pro controllers for Steam? - My index controllers are being tracked. But I can't use them to control, because the stupid Quest controllers are somehow activated.

What is the adhesive that the tundra tracker is attached to? I can't seem to find it.

Can you control the airlink taskbar and your desktops with the index controllers? I wanna still be able to select and type on my computer if I mix in these controllers

Before watching the video id like to say that this may or may not persuade me into getting this headset… That said, i would absolutely buy the quest pro if theres a way to keep battery life charged with a link cable… edit: I think im almost sold on this… damn it 😂😂😂 also what if you just… unpair the quest pros controllers? would that work? Since finger tracking exists, i figure you’d be able to just skip the quest pro controllers also can you use the gpu’s usb-c port for link?

Does this work with virtual desktop?

Bro fr got that reddit user hat

Doesn't using a oculos headset stop your 2.0 base stations from going into sleep mode?

one issue, when using Link + SteamVR it would refuse to recognize Knuckles or LH, how do i make it see the devices?

How do i port the c part into my pc? i dont have one...

Why? The Quest Pro has pretty amazing controllers.

Does this also work with WMR headsets like the HP?

So for the script I tried to use it and it didn’t work. It don’t even show me the script it just pops in and out really fast

Idk, maybe im dumb or something, but even after using the PowerShell script the quest pro controllers don't disappear. And if i try to disconnect them (even with the index controllers connected) the headset tells me it can't find the controllers and gets stuck in the oculus menu telling me to press the +/- buttons at the same time to exit (which ironically still does nothing) Any help?

What's is wrong with the Pro Touch Controllers...? I am just curious as to why you prefer the index controllers over the Quest Pro's Controllers.. ?

How do u attach a tracker on the headset? 13:52

I followed your steps but the tracking would be horrible for some reason

The struggle between companies just to have the best setup is real... and it only exists because they will never work together to support the consumer.

You can vastly improve the pro controllers tracking quality by removing or tunning down very bright light in your play space. The tracking is for a good part based on the cameras in the controller itself, and those are quite sensible to bright lights. I've run multiple tests, comparing them with index controllers, and they're just as good, and in some cases, almost better, as long as you have the proper conditions.

The fact you consider the old, horrible God rays, low res Index the king shows how crazy you are.

just stick your quest controllers into a faraday bag.

Sorry but the first problem is that shit is $1000 dollars 😒

Y would u put worse controllers on a pro? Makes no sense to me

There is big qpro controllers latency, it's absolutely trash for PCVR so lighthouse tracking with valve controllers only fix
