Everyone disses HTC, but the vive pro 2 is the industry leader rn. Better fidelity and refresh rate than psvr2, better tracking and noticeably less screen door than an index, more compatibility than a pimax. Sure the pimax 5k is $50 cheaper, but a pimax requires a 4090, but a vive will run quite happily on a 3070. It is finally possible to have roomscale 4K VR for less than $5000. Idk why people hate on HTC. I’ve been waiting a decade for a headset as good as the vive pro 2.
im so glad you guys made this video ive been thinking about getting a vive for such a long time and now i finally have the computer and the room to get so now i know how to set it up and all the things you need to know thank you so much have a great day

Got the vive today. Unfortunately i do not have my PC with me beacuse we are moving. I have tried the Vive before though, and I know that this is the best purchase of my life.
So i don’t have the actual headset, i use a rift s with the vive trackers and 2 base stations 2.0... do i have to put the base stations 2 meters high or there is another recommended height for it?
A couple of things that might help some peeps out there; 1) YOU WILL NEED A MONITOR to first install and set up the vive. My vid card was a dvid only not a dv and my old school monitor was neither.Had to buy a $40 cable to install but i returned it and got my refund at Staples. You cannot use the vive if you do not set it up first. 2)you MUST pair the dongles and set them up high and across each other.I used some lamp stands,took off the bulb and placed the dongles where the bulbs use to go. it works well. C) my linkbox didn't work so i plugged it directly into my comp without needing to use the linkbox fully. Such a pain Ω)you will need a power outlet forveach controller one for the headset,and ...yeah. Prolly will need some power cords /strips . Z) the pron is amazing.I would love it if I could watch live sports with it though. As if I were in the stadium itself.
I've got a question: When you set up your play area you usually exclude the Desk. Wouldn't playing seated games at your desk interfere with your play area and constantly set of a warning?
6:40 is where i get stopped at. It says controller off (2), and headset off. My controllers and headset are green on the steam widget and the light is green as well. Help would be appreciated
Hey! Whats that clamp used alongwith the Tripod. Not the shelf clamp but the one that one can mount on the tripod. I would like to buy a similiar one or maybe the same product
what happens if one of the base stations is blue? One of them is green but the other is blue, it's on a stable tripod and isn't being obstructed, they have a clear view of each other but the blue one refuses to turn green. The green one is set to b & the other is set to c, I tried the other way by setting the left one to c and right one to b but nothing changed. I'm at a loss and it's been frustrating.
We set up the room and doesnt detect the headset or controllers and the base stations continue to not want to sync up even though we connected them and did the channels, I'm so frustrated with the set up
I have a really important big question about my vive... How does the sticky rubber stay sticky? The little rectangle on the connector box. What is that thing made of?
I don’t know if it’s he sensor height but when I play thrill of the fight my feet are throw the floor and I’m really small so the other dudes tall, any fix?
i have a problem with the wire that connects the headset to the link box. if i leave the cable on the gorpund i will trip over it if i try to put it on the celing then theres not enouch wire to make me crouch so i cantcrouch in the games my question: is there a way to extend the headset wire that connects to the link box i really need helt with it
Valentin damn so excited, mine is coming in 2 days, the problem is is that vive doesn't ship the vr to my country and had to buy it from a 3rd party website, I'm hoping it doesn't mess up my shipping.
Could someone help me with an issue I'm having? My PC only has one HDMI port, and my screen is using it. Is there any way around this? I've been looking for solutions for about 45 min now.

Jamsy .billy underrated
yeah but he gave them a free vive so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Just shows how dedicated this guy is to help people setup their Vives
Where
He was breaking in but still he installed everything for them. And if he is playing in VR he is basicly not in ther home anymore.
HTC UK is the channel but an American plug is used. You're tearing me apart Lisa!
For anyone considering buying this. I just got it and i have never made such a great purchase in my life

thank yup
yeah but it's a bitch to set up
@@01_SPACE_C0WB0Y not really? I had 0 problems setting it up the first time
@@01_SPACE_C0WB0Y I can tell you've never played with lego...
how he plugged in the power plug for the base station bugs me xD
C'mon fam leave room for another!!
I was thinking the same thing man
I'm late to this comment but I wanted to say it bugs me too! Fortunately the British plugs don't have this issue!
Great, you changed the platform forcing account making to proceed to setting up my device rather than the hassle free solution years ago.
David has such an endearing face and demeanor. Loved watching this even though I've already done my 2.0 4xstations ages ago.
Easier to setup than i expected, room measurement went as planned! So excited to try it.
I like how HTC bothered to censor his shoes.
If you are a big company and you make commercial videos like this you have to. Otherwise they might get sued, which happens pretty often actually.
@@no_alias_for_me but why does that happen? i dont get it, feels like they want to punish people for giving them free advertisement
@@borgri5871 Basically, Stupid companies looking for money can sue people who use their logo in anything that makes money, cuz it somehow violates trademark and copyright laws or something like that.
But it's even more retarded since they will probably make that same amount of money through the minor advertisement from the video
I would censor his face also
Interesting

O my god this video is so nostalgic… I remember setting up my vive for the first time 😢😢
3:29, I have a problem on which plug he used, I hate when theres a large brick and someone plugs it in and COVERS THE OTHER OUTLET
(Clamp sold separately) Wish I saw that before buying one lmao
What's a clamp
amit yoel watch futurama and you’ll know
@@MsEddiepark i watched every season and episode, (the end is so saddddddddd)
If only the cables looked like that behind my desk... XD
lmao, whenever i look down behind my desk im like, nope.
True lmao
I have watched this 100 times and know how to set this up by memory
Even in 2022, this is still an impressive piece of tech.

Man , this is pretty nostalgic to me
thanks josh!! can't wait for you to come home and play!!! XD
I can’t wait to get a htc vive thank you for the detailed set up
I now know how to construct my own vive rocket to the moon, thank you HTC!
Thanks. This really did help me understand the scope of install and what will be needed.
did you really blur out the fucking shoes ? hahahahahah
2:13
They can be sued by the company for that

David nice and clear explaination too good
getting mine in a couple days, so hyped.
Mine should be at the post office today!! I'm getting it after I get off of work. I'm so happyy~
What kind of barbarous monster puts the plug like that? Holy shit VIVE.
Thanks, that was the best explanation on youtube.
Holy crap,I’m gonna get this for christmas,I’m gonna need to do some BIG renovating in my house for this......
I feel like I'm about to fly on an airplane haha

Very informative and thank you
However, the blurring out of the shoes is super funny!!!!
Watching this waiting on the postman, hopefully setting up within the next hour! :D

What do the base staions do please
CrazyCatz they are for tracking your head and body
Okay thanks Soooooo much.
Question, do I require to put the HDMI cable in or is it optional?
Will it work with hp
My question is why in the hell didn't my box come with a set-up guide :|
Not that hard to set up, took me 13 mins.
it has a web address to a web page somewhere on one of the random pieces of paper
which is good for the planet i guess
Took me 15 it’s easy
You might have bought a used one
Does anyone know if this will work with a HDMI to USB? I cant find it on my computer
can someone show me how to clear the pets. 1:20
Rei Crystalline tear off the legs then they cant walk in the play area :)
Rei Crystalline yeet them against a wall
Beat them against the wall. If you do it right they'll be too crippled to even walk.
Or an even more humane way; Shut them outside ;)
@@dha12oks Naah, just tape them to the wall, less humane but they won't get lost >:D
is there a moc in the headset???
mic
Yes

The Stone Just move the chair back you will sit in
What if I don't have any available space on my walls, do I have to buy tripods seperately.
Can the base stations be farther apart than 5 meters? I was thinking 6 meters?
Nice video ! lound and clear ! for the HALF LIFE:ALYX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What if the VR status isn't showing anything?
3:30 what if i dont have any of these outlets in my house?
With the link box do I need a pc or can I do it all on a laptop?
Do they have long chords to get the base stations connected to power outlets?
Does the sensors have to be diagonal on the edges/corners of the wall, or can they just be opposite sides of the wall?
One of my base station doesn't work? it just has 1 really small red light
meee too, how did you fix it?
6:40 is where i get stopped at. It says controller off (2), and headset off. My controllers and headset are green on the steam widget and the light is green as well. Help would be appreciated
Does it have to be the blue usb 3, or just a normal usb port?
Do you need anchors for dry wall drilling? Will it hold fine without them?
thank you that help me a lot
thank you so much for the help :D
nice treads bruv!
Is there a way to set up base stations without drilling into the wall
does my computer need bluetooth to connect to the base stations?
i watch this for like 50 times because i really want Vive. and now!! i still don't have it. hahahahaha when i have it i will watch this again
Who’s Lisa and why is she tearing everyone apart
Exactly
AK media it’s a reference to the room.
Im a Weeaboo still don’t know who Lisa is
@@horaryzappy thats wrong. there is a movie called "the room" as joey scott mentioned, and its notoriously bad
to use this VR what we need the specification in the pc
What if your computer isn't in the same room as your play area? What does the position of your actual computer monitor have to do with this? TIA
It seems like I'm missing a USB cable. Would a micro USB cable work?
Hey! Whats that clamp used alongwith the Tripod. Not the shelf clamp but the one that one can mount on the tripod. I would like to buy a similiar one or maybe the same product

Will this work on a Dell laptop?
Hi, How to setup 4 base stations
Does it come with the mounting clamps?
Yes, all you need is 4 screws and 1 drill.
what happens if one of the base stations is blue?
One of them is green but the other is blue, it's on a stable tripod and isn't being obstructed, they have a clear view of each other but the blue one refuses to turn green. The green one is set to b & the other is set to c, I tried the other way by setting the left one to c and right one to b but nothing changed. I'm at a loss and it's been frustrating.
It is really really good
We set up the room and doesnt detect the headset or controllers and the base stations continue to not want to sync up even though we connected them and did the channels, I'm so frustrated with the set up
Does the adapter change from region to region or is it always that plug?
Adapter is changing from region to region. So no worries.
What´s the difference using the synk cable??
DaNuVem it's for if the base stations are to far away and can't see each other

If you were to cut out a pice of a phone screen protector to cover the camera lens as a protector?
oh gawd this is gonna be a challenge
I have a really important big question about my vive...
How does the sticky rubber stay sticky? The little rectangle on the connector box. What is that thing made of?
Do you have to always use the sync cable if you have something blocking the view a little bit? Or just for the first time?
Do the cables come with the headset?
Yes.
Yeah
Nope, you gotta buy everything separately
Do I need bluetooth in order for vive to work? or is it all cable based?
yognut4ever all cable based, the controllers communicate with the headset
Cable based. The headset connects to PC for information and the headset does the rest if connections
are the Base Stations bluetooth? (my computer doesnt have bluetooth)
No
I don’t know if it’s he sensor height but when I play thrill of the fight my feet are throw the floor and I’m really small so the other dudes tall, any fix?

i really need helt with it
is it just me or is 3:29 really the way to plug something into a socket
where can i get those stands for the cameras?
amazon.com
i wan't it sooo bad!!
Clorox Bleach makes sense
im getting in october
edit: nevermind it just arrived
+Valentin Do you like it so far?
Thomas PL never tried anything more fun

Could you have the vr in a different room to your pc and monitor
I don't think so because it needs to be plugged into your pc
Dumb question, does the VR comes with a form of microphone or do i need to buy one ?
No, it doesnt
Buy one
The vive has an in built mic....
do i need 2 hdmi ports? cuz i dont have 2 hdmi ports on my pc. btw i have 980ti
is it ok not to set up the cameras? i dont plan on playing games where i have to move around, i just wanna play while sitting down.
Are the usbs all 3.0 or is IT ok with 2.0?
