HTC VIVE - Page 43

I'm experiencing skipped frames. What could I do?
If you've installed software in your computer that automatically adjusts the display (such as for
night mode), it may be causing the conflict.
To resolve the issue, disable the software that may cause the conflict (such as f.lux or Prismatik)
when using VIVE.
I'm seeing drifting motion or floating objects in VR. What could I do?
Try these troubleshooting suggestions.
§ Make sure that there are no reflective surfaces (such as mirrors) within your play area.
§ If there are Bluetooth
®
devices in the room, turn them off so that they don't interfere with
hardware pairing.
§ Check if you're having CPU performance issues. On the SteamVR app, click Settings
Performance Display Frame Timing. If there are spikes in the graph, it means that the
issue is with your CPU.
What should I do if I don't hear a sound while using the audio cable?
Make sure that the headset is on normal mode and not on standby, and that the SteamVR app is
running on your computer.
