PCVR Software Preparation

  • Updated

Setting up your Omni One for PCVR requires the proper software configuration to ensure seamless integration with your PC and VR gaming setup. Follow this step-by-step guide to prepare Omni Connect and install necessary apps for the best experience.

 

Step 1: Install SteamVR on Your PC

Download and install SteamVR if you don't already have it:

Download SteamVR

 

Step 2: Install Omni Connect on Your PC

Download the Omni Connect PC driver:

Download Omni Connect

Windows may warn you against running the enclosed file. Please select 'More info' to bypass this warning.

Install Omni Connect:

  • Manually uninstall any previous version of Omni Connect.
  • Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.

Omni Connect automatically detects if you launch a SteamVR game that is officially supported and applies one of our Official Game Profiles and bindings, enabling a plug-and-play experience. We will periodically update Omni Connect, adding more features and support for more games, and you will be prompted to update Omni Connect when launching the app, if an update is available. New automatic profiles and bindings may become available with these updates.

Remember to check if there are any game-specific instructions that need to be applied to enable or optimize the movement experience, which you'll find on our officially supported games list, here. If it is not a supported game, check to see if there is a community-made Omni One binding and profile that you can use (you will have to manually copy across the game profile into the custom folder per our guide, and activate any binding the community has made on SteamVR). You'll find an unofficial support channel on our Discord server, which you join using this link: http://discord.gg/qUYvWPj. When joining, you should mark yourself as an Omni Owner in ⁠'Channels & Roles' and then you'll have access to the unofficial support channel (and others related to Omni Owners). If you're an investor, please use the invite link provided in our investor emails, as this will give you an additional role and access to an investor-only section. If you already joined and don't see that section, please leave the server and then re-join with the link in the investor emails.

If you wish to make your own profiles for currently unsupported games, you can consult our advanced guide. See Omni Connect Upcoming Features & Version Notes for advanced features not covered in our setup guide.
