Mixed Tracking

Updated for Standable v2.1.0

What is Mixed Tracking?

Mixed Tracking allows you to combine Standable with other FBT methods.

  • Use Standable to fill in tracking gaps where hardware trackers are absent.
  • Smoothly transition to Standable when trackers get occluded or run out of battery.
  • and more QOL features!

How to Calibrate


Calibrating with Mixed Tracking is the same process as regular Standable calibration but with a few more tidbits. Read about how regular calibration works HERE

1. Enter Calibration Mode

First enter VRChat's Calibration mode then hold a t-pose, you’ll hear a click noise after a moment. This is confirmation that Standable has entered calibration mode.

In this mode, Standable straightens out the trackers and links FBT trackers to the closest Standable Proxy Trackers. If a tracker gets linked, the corresponding Proxy Tracker will turn blue (or green if using Rotation Only).

Pencil Pose is ENABLED by default!

When holding a t-pose, place both of your feet right next to each other instead of aligning them with the avatar.


Learn more about Pencil Pose HERE.

2. Avatar Alignment

Sometimes the VRChat avatar isn’t in a perfect t-pose. To adjust for this Standable has some options to adjust for alignment.

Learn more about alignment settings HERE


(Avatar alignment settings don't affect mixed tracking offsets. Only used for aligning to the avatar.)

3. Confirm / Exit Calibration

Once everything is aligned, press both triggers to confirm and exit VRChat’s Calibration mode. Then lower your arms to your side until you hear a final confirmation click from Standable. That’s all, you’re now calibrated!

Note: Tracker recalibration doesn't require avatar recalibration.

Avatar calibration is only needed once, but Standable can be recalibrated repeatedly without redoing avatar calibration every time.

Proxy Tracker Modes

There are four different modes for a Proxy Tracker (Standable tracker). Each Proxy Tracker can be individually set to a different mode to work for your specific setup.

Dynamic (Recommended)

In dynamic mode the tracker can freely link to any FBT trackers and will use any data that it can, otherwise it will just fallback to Estimation.

placeholder

Rotation Only

In Rotation Only mode if the tracker links to a FBT tracker, it will only use the rotation and will try to estimate the position.

placeholder

Estimation

In Estimation mode the tracker will default to regular Standable estimation no matter if it is linked to a tracker.

placeholder

Disabled

The tracker will not show up in SteamVR.

placeholder

Tracker Fallback

What is Fallback?

Many FBT trackers are prone to loosing tracking, whether it be through being occluded, drifting, or even battery hitting 0%. Fallback allows Standable to use Estimation as a backup when tracker data is no longer available.

placeholder

Fallback Trigger Modes

Each trigger mode can be enabled/disabled depending on your preference.

Only ONE Fallback Trigger needs to be triggered for Standable to start falling back to estimation for that specific tracker.

placeholder

Tracking Status

Trigger Fallback based on device's SteamVR status.

Distance

Trigger Fallback when tracker gets an unrealstic distance away from body's center of mass.

Can help with trackers that like to drift into space.

Complete Tracking Loss

Trigger Fallback when device completely looses tracking (whether it be occlusion, battery dying, or some other cause)

Other Settings

There are a few more settings that relate to Mixed Tracking. A full list can be found HERE
