Nemmy1234 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Is there a way to re-orient the room layout on the Cosmos? Or is there a special order for tracing the layout on the floor? In a boxing or sword play game, I really don't want to be slashing in the direction of my TV Screen! @Synthesis @stvnxu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stvnxu Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Hi @Nemmy1234, Apologies on the late response here. This slipped past me during launch week. I know I'm over a month late in responding to this, but still want to at least make sure we respond here. No one gets left behind! The current process to re-orient the room layout on the Cosmos is to do this during the Room Setup. During the setup process, make sure to face the direction of where you'd like to face when playing your experiences and that direction will be your forward orientation. We've received multiple reports / request for a button or faster process and I've submitted to our internal team for review. I'll update you when I hear more on this. Thank you, STeve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HackPerception Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 @Nemmy1234 - We're testing a UI solution for this setting in the beta release of 1.0.10.2 beta of the Vive Cosmos software. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davide445 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) Didn't want to open another thread for exactly the same topic. Just tested the forward direction feature and didn't find myself. My goal is to orient my play area so that fit with the orientation of the virtual environment I'm testing on Trying to set different forward directions I didn't find my virtual world oriented in a way that match the play area I traced in my room. The orientation seems to change but didn't fit the direction I set. I'm using this feature in the wrong way? The 3d engine need to support this re-orientation? How is supposed to work?

stvnxu Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 @davide445 - Could you share in steps how you're setting the orientation to match your play area? Are you doing this in room setup or through Lens? or both? Recent beta addresses a bug in the orientation setting through Lens: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting inside the VR environment I open the Vive software control in the lens, and try to set the room orientation in the same direction of the VR environment I use. But the result is never aligned, and using trial and error I wan't able to make that happen, seems to be rotated but never in the direction I want. Using latest beta software.

Okay, thank you for this. Will submit report to our engineering team. @C.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
