#Osvr steamvr compositor not available how to#
Do you wish to open the Steam Install guide?", which just opens a webpage telling you how to install Steam. Piplay always says "Steam is not installed. I am connected, and can use the inbuilt Piplay games, headtracking and sound and picture are all working for Piplay, but there is a disconnect between Steam and Piplay. I tried this, and unforts, it didn't get me connected. Consider it more of "advice" if you will.įirstly - props to you for sharing.

Sometimes it will also take a moment (a long moment) for your PC monitor to detect an input from your display port while your HMD may already be connected. You PC monitor should be the "secondary" display connected out of the display port. You must have the HMD connected through the native HDMI output that your graphics card consists of. When you have a graphics card that does not support multiple HDMI's, but consists of a Display Port, you need to do this important step. !!!!!!! IMPORTANT FOR THOSE WHO USE DISPLAY PORTS !!!!!!!!!!! You would also to reboot your PC after you have enabled direct mode, and then once your computer is off, connect your HMD then continue to reboot with it on. If the above instructions do not work, you need to reboot your PC after you unplug your headset. Rebooting your PC between some steps may work as well. If this does not work then you want to switch back to direct mode following these instructions. In some but very rare cases, you may have to follow all of these steps but instead place it in extended mode. YES, READ THE TROUBLESHOOTING TROUBLESHOOT SECTION TO BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FIX THIS ISSUE. Once that is done, run room setup and you should be good to go! If the compositor link does not work, you can manually located it within the SteamVR folder in your Programx86 in Steam. Now, boot up SteamVR once again and you may have to enable compositor. Launch your program (if you need one) that would require your headset to work with SteamVR (PiPlay for the Pimax is an example of one) Now, close down SteamVR and connect your HMD and other cords associated with it back into your PC. Also if it does not appear, close SteamVR, go to properties, and opt into the beta and redo the above steps SIDE NOTE: If this does not appear in developer options, it may have been moved within a recent update. Once completed, head into developer options, click "Enable Direct Mode Only" In one of the tabs, find something where it says "Remove all drives associated with SteamVR" (Or something like that) Run SteamVR and click the arrow down and go to settings Close SteamVR and any other programs associated with VR (PiPlay, Oculus Runtime, etc.) (This should also work with the Pimax 8K VR) I know you don't want to hear me ramble because chances are you've been stuck with this problem in what feels like ages! Here is the fix to the 306 error and other similar errors. READ ALL OF THIS BEFORE ACTUALLY DOING THIS, DON'T MAKE MORE WORK FOR YOURSELF!
