Getting Started

Prerequisites

• A PC and VR headset capable of running/streaming SteamVR (Windows/Linux)
  • Optionally, you can instead use OSC in SlimeVR to forward the data to a standalone HMD like Quest.
• A supported set of HaritoraX trackers (see this)
• Latest version of SlimeTora
• Latest version of SlimeVR server
  • New to SlimeVR and SlimeVR server? Read the SlimeVR basics wiki page here.
• Latest version of HaritoraConfigurator
  • The trackers must be paired/connected via the software at least once (and to make sure connections are working).

SlimeTora setup

• Download the latest release of SlimeTora in the releases tab.
• Extract the zip archive into its own folder and run the program (SlimeTora.exe).
• Under "Program settings", modify them to your setup:
  • Select the model of HaritoraX trackers you have under "Tracker model" (HaritoraX Wireless/HaritoraX 1.1b/1.1/1.0).
  • Select the supported connection mode you want to use to connect to your trackers (Bluetooth/COM / GX(6/2)).
    • These two modes can also be used at the same time if on HaritoraX Wireless.
  • (COM/HaritoraX 1.1b/1.1/1.0) Select the COM port your bluetooth adapter has assigned the trackers to.
    • The port for the HaritoraX 1.1b/1.1/1.0 (wired) trackers can be found in HaritoraConfigurator's "communication settings".
  • (COM/GX(6/2)/HaritoraX Wireless) Select up to 4 COM ports that your trackers are on (3 if only using GX6, 4 if using GX6+GX2).
    • Usually, this is the first four (consecutive) available ports. COM1/COM2 are usually already used by other devices, so the ports are likely COM3, COM4, COM5 (and COM6 for GX2).
    • Check Device Manager to see what ports are being used by the trackers as USB Serial Devices.
• Change the program's settings to your liking (see this).
• Continue to SlimeVR setup.

Your trackers must be paired/connected via the HaritoraConfigurator at least once to work. This is also done to make sure there are no issues with the trackers connecting to the PC in general.

SlimeVR setup

• Download and install the latest release of SlimeVR server.
• Run the program, turn on your trackers, and press Start connection in SlimeTora.
• If running SlimeVR server for the first time, go through the initial setup:
  • Accept all popups that mention a "new tracker" was detected at any point during the setup (these are your trackers!)
  • Skip the Input Wi-Fi credentials screen by pressing Skip Wi-Fi settings.
  • Press I put stickers and straps!.
  • Assign the trackers to your body (shake to identify the trackers).
  • (IMPORTANT) Perform Automatic Mounting to calibrate the mounting positions.
    • Manual mounting does not seem to work well for non-official SlimeVR trackers (or at least, these HaritoraX trackers).
  • Choose a proportion calibration method (automatic/manual).
• If this isn't your first time (or skipped initial setup):
  • Accept all popups that mention a "new tracker" was detected (these are your trackers!)
  • Assign the trackers to your body (shake to identify the trackers) in Tracker Assignment.
  • Perform an Automatic Mounting calibration or a mounting reset (you should be in the ski pose).
• If you experience lower-body tracking issues:
  • Open SlimeVR server's settings, disable Automatic tracker assignment, and disable both knees under SteamVR trackers.
  • This isn't necessary, but this may help fix certain tracking issues especially when sitting/laying - more info in the troubleshooting wiki page.
• Check out the rest of SlimeVR and its settings, and you're done!

Note that SlimeVR's resets differ to HaritoraConfigurator's and has three different resets (yaw/full/mounting) which are used for different reasons. Please check the SlimeVR Basics page in this wiki for more information, specifically the Resets & calibration section.

If you experience any issues, make sure to check out the troubleshooting wiki page.
