SteamVR has support for OSVR. I tested with an OSVR HDK2.
Install SteamVR:
steam://install/250820
I used the OSVR control panel to flash the HDK2 to the [latest firmware] (`hdk2svr-2.00.hex`).
The setup instructions can be found at the [SteamVR-OSVR] project.
[Kevin Godby] is the developer of the SteamVR-OSVR plugin.
[Russell Taylor] is the primary RenderManager developer.
The 7zip archive with the pre-built Windows drivers can be found in the [files] section.
Extract the archive.
Copy the `SteamVR-OSVR\lib\openvr\osvr` folder to `C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SteamVR\drivers` folder as a subfolder.
Initially, the SteamVR tutorial was up-side down. I found a solution on Reddit. [New SteamVR-OSVR driver available: fixes display orientation]
Close `SteamVR` and `Steam` before editing the `C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config\steamvr.vrsettings` file.
{
"driver_osvr" : {
"scanoutOrigin" : "lower-right",
"verbose" : true
},
"steamvr" : {
"mirrorViewGeometry" : "0 0 1080 600"
}
}
Be sure to relaunch the OSVR server before starting SteamVR.
Relaunch Steam, and the SteamVR tutorial.
Issues:
[Main monitor on different GPU prevents VR applications detecting Vive]
Since I have dual graphics cards, I had to swap graphics cards slots to get SteamVR to recognize the headset in Direct Mode.
There’s a couple important logs for debugging `SteamVR` issues.
