VR FULL BODY TRACKING FOR FREE! | VIRTUAL DESKTOP GUIDE

[@accieT]

as someone whos using standabke and about to get a quest 3 for this exact reason this is WAY better. standabke is AMAZING for upper body tracking but COMPLETELY breaks with legs. all it can do is tell when i sit or stand and cant track my waist at all. thegsaid in a future update they will fix the legs but its been a while since then and nothings happend so im not sure if itll even happen especially considering it was just some highschool kid's side project. stillamazing for upper body tracking but leg and hip wise its nothing much more than normal half body.

[@accieT]

youtube wont let me edit for some odd reason, but some additional thoughts i have standable is 13.99 i beleve so this price is very worth it for the better tracking. id rather virtual desktops worse upper body tracking to be able to get my legs in vr any day. i really wanna see if i can combine the two for smoother upper body tracking though if compatible. should prove to be an interesting experiment if it works.glad to see that fbe is being more accessible to questies and more work done on it. tbh i think it could be the future of vr tracking as its cheaper more accesible and doesnt require a jungle of tracker straps and cables and putting trackers on everytime. if anyone has any questions id be morethan happy to answer. it would be interesting to see it run on headsets with better sensors too to unlock the softwares full potential and see if it makes any difference though

[@MustBeLux]

Standable started beta testing version 2.0 a few days ago, it'll probably be released to the public soonish

[@Nekapet]

@@MustBeLuxI cant find the beta version nor have the option to do so. Til I found your post Ive been very confused to even bring that up aside from the download link in description...

[@Estebeezy]

Do you still find it better than standable?

[@MustBeLux]

​@@Nekapet sorry for the late reply, the standable beta is available on the creators patreon. Idk if it's publicly released yet or not

[@alwaysyouramanda]

Bending over to give tiny players head pats won’t look so illegal 😂

[@DummyStoner]

Loll soo truee

[@valajonny9162]

I wonder if that might push VRChat devs into improving their own IK system, since Standable seems to be doing a similar job to this without the need for cameras tracking lower body movements. Though seeing so many new cheap options for FBT/FBE makes the default VRC IK kinda obsolete, it would be nice to see it improve aswell since it has been shown that it could be so much better without the need for actual trackers!

[@CoffeeCode3D]

Yes this is much better than standable. I have used standable and its cool for upper body stuff like fixing the elbows but for lower half in it's current state its not great. this is miles better for lower body tracking

[@gonsodany]

3:30, adding to this, its not an estimate, its actually tracking, the quest's camera is ALSO recording your elbows, its called IOBT

[@3VERone]

Just tested it, im stunned, thanks for sharing!

[@lizbrand446]

How did you see the calibrate button?

[@DivinityGames_]

@@lizbrand446 go into action menu, options, then osc, enable osc

[@kymerahYT]

As someone who has gotten Standable to work very well and has tried this method too, I prefer Standable no contest. You can play in dark environments and look straight up and down without losing tracking with Standable. You can lay, roll and turn your hips/chest/head to look behind you with it too ALL with no cameras. And with 2.0 around the corner with mixed tracking, VD needs to get off the starting line compared to Standable already cleared hurdles. People saying they can’t get Standable to track their lower body well is the definition of “skill issue.”

[@spritevr]

Glad standable is good for you!

[@sylpokemons]

Any tips for getting the lower body to track? For whatever reason, my legs are always busted and my feet are crossed.

[@kymerahYT]

@@sylpokemons be sure to set your height in VRC correctly. For the first session I had my height too low and Standable thaught my feet were my knees and my hips were my chest.

[@jettsett9354]

Idk man, I enjoy VD for the fact that I don't look goofy leaning back or forward, on top of having an actual walking animation when I move around. Standable is great for its calibration system, the fact that my feet stay on the ground without floating around whenever I move and the lying positions not putting half my body in the ground, but overall I'd rather use the "starting line" VD for its more realistic movements. Standable 2.0 also didn't take anything from VD, which is a shame.

[@kymerahYT]

@@jettsett9354 just turn off/on locomotion in VRC to get the walking/running animations back.

[@bryanparks6958]

Well done and easy to understand. You've earned another subscriber! Keep up the great work. 🙂

[@Naturo_VR]

You deserver more views! Thanks for all of these videos ^^

[@ShirouJuin]

help i dont see the edit calibration on my quick menu

[@EmiTheyThem]

I'm having an issue when calibrating on VRChat, my elbows and shoulders are always misplaced, no matter how good I T pose, or if I put my thumps up or down. How is right way to calibrate it?

[@EmiTheyThem]

I figured it out. I'm using a Quest 3, and when calibrating FBT on VRChat, you need to put thhe controllers facing down, twisting your wrists down. A quite unnatural posture but that way it works.

[@lizbrand446]

The calibrate button doesn’t show up for me??

[@strange.luck_]

Love it, keep it up. Jus subbed 🎉❤

[@spritevr]

Thanks for the support!

[@MilkzyVR]

0:40 i laughed way too hard at this 😂😂

[@mewtedyou4938]

I did to looolll😂😂😂I wondered who would notice

[@SlimbTheSlime]

Why don't my legs work when I follow your tutorial? I can't lift a knee nor extend my legs while sitting.

[@mathieulapointe38]

Same

[@EmberTheFlareon3579]

The legs I believe are trying to do the default "prone" pose while the rest of your body is being overwritten by being tracked.

[@webbysham6283]

Y'know I don't know what's wrong but I set it up, made my desktop and vr headset the same version. And turned on the Emulate Steam VR Vive Trackers. I open VRchat and at first the arm trackers are working well but the legs, they are stiff and haven't moved at all. Then when I tried to close and open vrchat again the Emulated trackers are all on the floor clumped together and I don't understand why that is or how to fix it.

[@earlysteven123]

That’s because the quest 3 only has IOBT/upper body tracking and estimates where your legs are

[@xAn1_Sann0-]

Im inlove with that avatar, its beautiful

[@yurevia]

hey im doing it rn and i checked on forward tracking and emulate trackers/index isnt showing up under it. please help

[@ohhzymo5829]

My left foot is for some reason slightly elevated. Looks like im trying to do tap dancing

[@ShantoShmento]

don't have option to click "live" to "beta" option.

[@TastyTe]

would you be able to use the shoulder tracking with vive trackers?

[@spritevr]

I think so

[@toidIllorTAmI]

How do you reset the fake trackers? i noticed when i put the headset down and pick it up later its all jumbled together in a ball

[@Sim_Pole]

had to rewatch a second time because i got distracted by how cute you are :

[@wawillow.]

bro please make a quest joycon FBT tutorial

[@Spike42069]

Doesn't work for me :'( The calibrate trackers doesn't show up for me

[@thedankesttendie7745]

if your talking abt in vrc you may have to go into tracking and ik or comfort and safety and turn on fbt mode

[@Superkuzia15]

I'll definitely try this out once i get a quest 3. I'm also very much curious on how index controller will work, so uhhh yeah just gives me more of an incentive to get the quest 3 Edit: i found out index emulation is basically just finger tracking

[@Jawzogt]

i use quest 2 and it worked fine

[@sociallyresponsiblexenomor7608]

I tried this but for me it just puts the trackers all over the place in steam, none of them are anywhere near my actual body lol. Since you can't correct it in any way there it seems to just not work for me I guess.

[@M0r1-3]

it works alright but is there a way to fix the shoulders being so stiff? when im using it when i put my arms down it forces my avatar to go down and the shoulders are really stiff

[@ichi_vr]

wish there was a option for the quest pro honestly and the av1 codec as well (edit) tried on my quest pro but i have foot and waist trackers and it's so broken with it i turned it off

[@Tommo_]

elbows and shoulders are actually fully tracked along with the waist on quest 3!

[@KIU.Khaled]

When you said trackers I was bout to kill my self

[@spritevr]

lmao

[@gmfighter4426]

When i take off my headset the trackers all get stuck in the ground. Anyone know how to fix it without turning everything off and on?

[@zauza25]

I still wait my quest 3 to arive but i thought vrchat have it from feb 2024. No? You need some 3rdparty stuff?

[@heartbroken3344]

Is it actually comparable to what vive trackers can do? I already have 8 vive trackers and would love to get rid of some of the burden that comes with keeping elbows/chest in place and charged… and be aware that once you try something better than 6 point - there is no going back (for me at least)

[@XristoferLee]

unfortuantly doesn't seem to work to weel when combined with real trackers. still testing and working out bugs to be sure.

[@jealousgoose]

Hey bro, great video! I'm thinking about buying Quest 3 just for this feature alone. But I've a question. Will this method work with Mocap Fusion VR on Steam? I want to record my full body animation and export it into 3D software

[@spritevr]

yes 👍 i have tried it in Mocap Fusion and it works good

[@中国龙2021兄弟年]

i want do animation by this too...

[@demizewaffle8716]

Now I wonder if you can use joycons for the feet tracking.

[@jlexusjlexus8214]

How do you disable the legs so I can use axis trackers?

[@刘羽-k4v]

why i can't feel my leg in virtual desktop？

[@moderngospel47]

Well sadly as a standable owner I'm pretty appalled with, the developer works for himself as he makes you buy the first edition which is worse than his updated beta bundles which you then have to buy again on his patreon so I couldn't tell you how good that one is because of that reason alone. The 1st edition is garbage compared to this but I've got index and legs now so it's not a problem anymore just a warning to future buyers.

[@FoldableSpork]

Is there a way I can disable just the legs? The arms and waist is great, but the legs are not acting right!

[@spritevr]

i think you can manage and disable trackers in steamvr settings :)

[@FoldableSpork]

@@spritevr Yep!! That worked, thank you! My elbow keeps flying off though, not sure about that, might just be me not being use to the calibration system

[@katiedukes1437]

doenst work for me. VRC makes my arms too short when calibrating. tried it for an hour or so. no idea what the problem is

@@spritevr steamvr version.

So if anyone else is having issues, my steam VR was launched in safe mode after crashing cause of VD, so what you have to do is, unblock Virtual Desktop on steam vr and it should work. That’s all I did and It worked

[@kanerik-iq3wo]

Can you dance and will it like track your left leg going left and the other one right and suff like that? And thank you for this video!

[@spritevr]

it doesn’t fully track your legs, like lifting, but it’s actually just taking a estimated guess of where they would based on your hips! So it is not full leg tracking, but it’s better than nothing imo
