It's also hard to get a good view of when my headset is so far away from the actual playspace, can't get the controllers to hit the buttons a mile in the air.
Do you know about the desktop mode of OVIE?
If you go into:
C:\Program Files\OpenVR-InputEmulator
there is a batch file called startdesktopmode.bat
That will bring OVIE up on the desktop. That is how I've been using it
Edit 2: Tried restarting SteamVR, and it seems like the pose data is back to the initial set so I can keep working on my calibration. It might've changed slightly, I'll see if it stays consistent through resets and over play sessions. As long as it's the same on boot every time it should work fine though.
I saw this edit too, so I hope that it will work. Let me know how you go
