BEST PRACTICE
TIPS AND TRICKS
Recommended settings on each Quest headset
-
Headset Tracking: Set the headset tracking frequency to a fixed 50Hz (EU) or 60Hz (US) instead of 'automatic' for more stable performance.
-
Hand Tracking: Disable hand tracking.
-
Room Scan: Perform a Meta room scan on each device, accuracy is not crucial, it helps with better tracking.
-
Boundary Settings: Use only one or no boundary, or clear the "Boundary history" in Quest spatial settings to avoid issues with jumping play spaces.
-
Developer Settings: Do NOT disable the Boundary. It will be disabled by the Laser Limbo app.
-
Wi-Fi: Disable all other Wi-Fi networks except the one you want to use.
Improve Tracking And Drift
-
Use well lighted rooms with many visual features. This means white empty walls doesn't work well.
-
Apply duck-tape markings or foil prints to the walls and floor.
-
Clean all cameras in the Quest regularly with a glasses cleaning cloth.
-
Manually set the correct tracking frequency for you lights for more stability. Explained in the Quest App Explainer Video.
-
Clear the room data in the Quest settings and then make a new Boundary. The Boundary is import even though it is switched off later on.
Improve Network Lags
-
Use a dedicated 6 or 6e GHz router (with a connection to the internet) to avoid lags when many other Wifi networks are near you. Use a 2.4. Ghz router (or router setting) if few other Wifi networks are around.
-
The router should be positioned in the middle of the play area at best.
-
Avoid external firewalls for Windows (like Mc Afee). Those can block the Operator App.
Calibration
-
Use tape or stickers to mark the two anchor points to make sure you'll not forget their positions and order.
Video capturing
-
Do not disable the Guardian by hand, this will course problems with video capturing - Laser Limbo will disable the Guardian for you automatically.
-
Use the camera stabilization feature (medium)
