SteamVR Muting my microphone, Harassment ensues.

PLEASE ANYONE, I NEED HELP!

This is how it looks, aka it is on mute, automatically

I have the strangest SteamVR ONLY related issue. Anytime I launch Steam VR or load into a map in Onward, VEIL, Contractors, Espire 1, Saints and Sinners or what ever: Steam VR mutes my microphone on a system level.

No one, according to google, has this issue, and It is driving me up the wall. In worst cases I have been team killed and kicked out of lobbies because I do not "communicate". How can I after every map load, every death, every change to the SteamVR state /or rather a reset, Steam VR mutes my microphone.

I thought it was only my Headset, Pico 4, but I have discovered that it is affecting absolutely any microphone input. I can change the Default mic in SteamVR settings as well as in a game as well as with Virtual Desktop but no matter what I select, the input device gets muted. Furthermore, I even double-checked that the normal steam Voice settings has a hot mic option selected so it's not that ite fearing and making it to be mute or Push to talk.

I think I have checked every setting I can find, I have tried to disable and redownload drivers but NOTHING works. The SteamVR will just mute my input device after every time "a state changes" in it.

I have removed any kind of control options form applications to my sound devices but SteamVR just doesn't care, at all. So right now, I am unable to socialize in VR games when using SteamVR. This does not happen if I launch the game directly through Virtual Desktop, but I really do not want to do that as I "*need" (*want) my Steam connection in games and the tracking and what not.

SteamVR keeps giving error 309 when starting

So today I got Skyrim VR on Steam, but when I tried to start the game, it closes. Then SteamVR pops up and gives Error 309: "A key component of SteamVR isn't working properly. Please restart SteamVR." I tried this and also tried uninstalling both applications and reinstalling them, but that also did not work. When I start SteamVR separately, it gives the same error.
My GPU is an Nvidia RTX 4090, and I should have all the requirements for the game.
Someone please help me!

Could you possibly assist me with a survey about experience using VR/AR Device??

Survey link : https://forms.gle/55nes7q7FEMET7T99

Hello, everyone!

This survey is conducted by the IDEA Lab at Kumoh National Institute of Technology in Republic of Korea, aims to understand the experience and satisfaction level of "VR/AR Device" users for investigating the influencing factors and moderating effects on the quality of experience during technology use.

It will probably take about 10 minutes.

It's a hassle, but I'll ask for help for my research and thesis.

I look forward to your participation

Thank you

All trackers won’t connect

I have had a Valve index with 3.0 vive trackers for over a year now with not many issues. I just got the tundras because I heard they were good but they won’t all connect at once. -I can connect all three tundras on their own but one of my hands disconnects. -Two of my tundras won’t connect if anything else is connected -All three tundras turn on if none of the other trackers are on.

I’ve tried repairing my hands and updating everything but I can’t get it it work

Half Life Alyx infinitely loading when trying to start up a map/save

I have an official copy of the game, I've tried putting "-novid" in the launch options, I've tried running Steam as administrator, but it just never works. It just loads infinitely, with a grey Valve logo left on my computer screen while loading.

I run the game through a Link cable on my Quest 2 headset.

I also noticed that this only happened when I started a game with addons.

Metro Awakening launches as a flat game instead of VR?

Metro Awakening launches as a flat game instead of VR, anybody else have this issue? I have tried Meta store version, SteamVR version, both virtual desktop and steam link. Toggling OpenXR runtime does not help. All versions do the same thing. Other vr games launch fine.

PCVR Question

This might be a dumb question but i see that the resolution for the quest 3 is 2064x2208p (not even sure if this is 2k or 4k) . I have a 3060ti in my pc. If i run a game off my pc streaming to my quest 3, what actual resolution would i be getting through the lenses of the quest? Better or worse than the 2064x2208p. Im assuming the colors environments and detail would be better cause its not running off just the quest but i could be wrong. I ended up picking up metro on psr2. Wanted to pickup for povr but im unsure on how the resolution works from pc to the vr.Of what i know, my 3060ti can do 2k but i dont know if that translates to the headset, will it downgrade the quality or up the quality? Please someone let me know!Thanks!

Edit: forgot to mention i dont use the link cable and stream from the pc to the quest. Only game ive tried this with is assetto corsa.

SteamVr keeps crashing

Whenever I load the app, It keeps crashing and saying there was a streaming problem. On my PC it just says there was a critical error. It used to just happen in loading screens and such but now it sometimes happens before I even load in but when I stream no VR games, it's just fine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PS. I have an Oculus Quest 2

Help fixing error 451

I have tried to fix this issue for ages. I have turned off hardware acceleration. I have set everything to default. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program multiple times. It is a hardware restriction. My laptop is rather low end but until recently I could still run steam vr. I also get this error on the other side. Hardware acceleration doesn't even appear to be a setting on my laptop. I have an acer aspire 5 with upgraded ram and storage.

What is the best VR Multiplayer FPS Schooter

I am looking at games like Pavlov and Contractors I have little bias for Pavlov because I played the Pavlov schak version when it was free. I would like to play the PC Version and I would prefer a game that is crossbuy and for Pavlov PC I heard the Community is kinda dead but the modding community is I think larger on contractors.

I own Onward VR but got tired of it to many kids dead PC Community and lack of new game Updates. I also own Gohst of Tabor that is a great game but often more frustrating than fun.

So what do you think and what are some other games that you suggest ? Do you have the same opinions about the games I mentioned ?

Occulus Quest and SteamVR on Linux?

Did some googling and threads are spread out across different shims and years so figured I would just ask:

Anyone familiar with the current compatibility between an Occulus Quest (whatever the current version is. 3?) and PC on Linux? I know on Windows (as of a few years ago) you installed a bunch of spyware for facebook and then it was pretty seamless to just plug the headset into the PC and it "just worked". But... Linux.

Would rather wait for Valve's totally not on the way headset (Deckard?) but could use a distraction and wouldn't mind getting ahead of tariffs.

And bonus question: Do they still require a "real" facebook account? Or can we use a burner email to not tie our VR account to the facebook account we have had for close to 20 years and just don't delete so we know if we get tagged randomly?

Thanks

LF some help with jittering hand.

The current issue i been having is a jittering left hand, I've covered reflective surfaces, i've reinstalled drivers, done the room setup, relocated the dongles, swapped out controllers, i have multiples over the years and currently using ones that dont have even 30 hours of use on em.

I just cant wrap my head around whats going on.

the current VR setup is as follows
- Meta Quest Pro using QuestLink for steamvr
- 2 Index Controllers
- 4 Tundra Trackers- 2 feet, 1 hip, 1 on headset for continuous tracking
- using Tundras Super Dongle and 2 addition dongles for controllers

Steam VR crashes to blue screen

When ever my Index is connected to my PC and I start up Steam VR it takes a moment then blue screens before shutting itself off. I've already tried talking to Steam support and they couldn't figure it out. The first time it happened I noticed one of my base stations was showing a red light so after I got it replaced I thought that would fix it, but still no. My graphics driver (AMD 6800RX GPU) is updated and it's worked just fine before but i don't know what I changed to cause this to happen other than replacing the base station.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Is it the AMD cards fault

I have a rx6800, ryzen 5 7600x, 2x16gb of ddr5 ram and a b650 mag msi mobo. I am getting very little fps on games that need barely any drive to run. I have gotten low frame son half life alyx on low settings and I tried gorilla tag to see if it could run low demanding games and it still runs bad on that.

Ive updated drivers for both amd and msi, tweaked ram speeds, overclocked cpu, and uninstalled and reinstalled windows and I have yet to see any difference.

I have no clue why I cannot run games properly especially with a card and cpu that should be able to handle vr gaming. I would love if anyone could help with this.

VR Kaiju Sim - Monster: Titan's Playground Beta

https://preview.redd.it/1j5zjbl7jpzd1.png?width=616&format=png&auto=webp&s=eccdfbd1b0c6d37cdcd76756f9eb77f0f967adcd

Ever wanted to get the feeling of being gigantic in VR? And able to breathe fire? And have an itch to cause pointlessly excessive destruction in a fully-destructible city? That's what this game is about.

Want to Play Now?

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/584458866/monster-titans-playground-closed-beta-test

We're running a Kickstarter, but not quite in the usual way. This isn't a hopeful concept of something we WANT to make. The game is ready for early access release, so there isn't the risk of it never being delivered. We're running it as a closed beta, and we invite those who are interested in sharing their thoughts and being a part of the creative process. As we add content and polish what we have, we want to know what our players like, don't like, and are interested in seeing. And helping us search out any sneaky bugs that need squashing.

If you're interested, back it soon, as availability is limited!

And if you want to see more, check out our Steam page:

Monstrum VR not working

I wanted to play Monstrum on my Oculus Quest 2 but every time I try to start it the oculus option just disappears

Update: I got it working with revive, but controllers still ain't working. It could be working because of cable link because before using revive I used it with steam link.
