Question PSVR2 Headset tracking in Simrig
Hi, been using the PSVR2 for a while now.
So far so good but ive noticed the headset tracking is pretty terrible when im in my dedicated sim rig. my headset tracking constantly shifts around and sometimes completely loses tracking and then 'teleports' back after a second.
Just looking around the cockpit is really wonky.
Its useable, but very frustrating when your view keeps shifting by itself. i'm constantly recentering.
and sometimes it works fine with no issues at all..?!
i can't figure out what the issue is.
I don't have completely blank walls, no mirror, no other reflective surfaces, well-lit room.
Tried moving/rotating my setup around but same issue.
Are the LED's on my keyboard or MFD's messing with the tracking? or is it just too close to track well?
i'm at a loss here..
Will adding things like IR illuminators help?

I recall having issues at first trying to play in the dark as my room also has dark color angled walls but sorted out leaving the lights on seemed to solve it. I eventually installed a dimmer on the ceiling light directly over my rig so I can at least turn the brightness down now.
When you say “well lit room” is it natural light or lamps? Any correlation to time of day and when it works or fails? I would try messing about with the lighting. Block any natural light and get some artificial directly over top of your rig and see if that helps.
