FAQ:

How many trackers or phones do I need to use for leg tracking?

​ 5

​ You can use Waist+Legs mode or Waist+Knees+Legs mode, but for both modes 5 trackers/phones is needed.

​ This modes only change amount of virtual vive trackers, created by SlimeVR.

​ Waist+Legs create 3 virtual trackers suitable for VrChat

​ Waist+Knees+Legs create 5 virtual trackers for NeosVR for example

​ Using sixth tracker/phone you can track your chest for better sitting accuracy and it you can enable one of two modes with chest:

​ 1. Waist+Legs+Chest mode for 4 virtual trackers

​ 2. Waist+Legs+Chest+Knees mode for 6 virtual trackers.

I heard I could use 3 phones for leg tracking

​ You can't. You will have a bad time, and that's not our fault. Your knees won't bend and it's overall worst experience. Minimum is 5

I have only one/two phones

​ You can use official owoTrack driver for waist or SlimeVR server for waist (+ chest if you have 2 phones). This will not track your legs

I try to run SlimeVR server by clicking run.bat but nothing happens. Why?

​ You need to install Java for the SlimeVR Server to open. Click here to go to the download page: https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

​ Use this guide to setup SlimeVR server - https://docs.slimevr.dev/slimevr-setup

My trackers are connected to the SlimeVR Server, but they are not moving in SteamVR

​ Make sure you have the correct roles selected in the SlimeVR Server for your trackers/phones. They should be Waist, Left Leg, Right Leg, Left Ankle and Right Ankle.

​ Use this guide to see how to setup tracker roles - https://docs.slimevr.dev/slimevr-setup

My controller is a tracker. How do I fix this?

​ You need to assign roles to your trackers in SteamVR. Go to SteamVR Settings > Devices > Manage Trackers. In the tracker list find the ones named

​ "/devices/SlimeVR/SlimeVRTracker#" and give them the roles Waist, Left Foot, Right Foot from top to bottom. You then need to restart SteamVR.

​ Use this guide to see how to setup tracker roles - https://docs.slimevr.dev/slimevr-setup

In what order should I start SteamVR and SlimeVR Server?

​ SlimeVR Server needs to be started before SteamVR.

My phone isn't connecting to the server

​ Check that the IP is correct.

You can input 255.255.255.255 as IP to owotrack android app

​ You have to open command panel (cmd.exe) and execute ipconfig command and get your PC IPv4 address field - for example 192.168.1.2 and put it in Owo app

I have an Iphone and it disconnects after 10 minutes

Possible workaround

​ Enable guided access.

​ You can find this under settings -> accessibility -> guided access.

​ Disable "display auto lock", set it to "never"

​ Then start owo track app.

Turn down the screen brightness completely to save battery

Apple has restrictions on apps for networking in background. Currently under investigation.

​ You should avoid using apple devices if you don't want to reconnected them.

Virtual trackers on steamVR are greyed out

​ It's normal, check if trackers present in VR

I can't find Ios version in the store

​ Ios version of OwoTrack ​ https://testflight.apple.com/join/1DZAkuCX ​ You can access the public beta via this link. ​ You'd have to download the "Testflight" app from Apple first and then open the link on your iPhone. ​ created by @ferdimarti#2111 ​ Be aware of 10 minutes background time limit due to Apple restrictions. Workaround currently under investigation
