# Faceless

A proof of concept OpenVR driver for using VR controllers without an HMD.

The goal is to guesstimate the position of the HMD based on the controller positions, so you can interact with the virtual world without needing to wear the HMD at all.

# How to use

Download either Linux or Windows builds from the release section of the repository.

To do this:

1. Open the Steam Library list.

2. Open SteamRV properties

3. Open local files

4. Click Browser

5. A window will open `Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/drivers`

The driver needs to be placed in `Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/drivers`.

This driver (the whole faceless folder) needs to be put in the drivers folder.

To enable faceless, you must open your `Steam/config/steamvr.vrsettings` file and set the `"activateMultipleDrivers" : true,` key true under the `steamvr` sections:

You probably need a comma.

```json

"steamvr" : {

    "activateMultipleDrivers" : true

}

```

This will allow the driver used for the VR controllers to work concurrently with this driver. Finally, enable the driver in the Startup section of SteamVR settings.

# Running Faceless

When Faceless is running, a H symbol will appear.
