Amazon has adhesive hooks (cable management) there a square shap and come with 3 pound weight holding adhesive come in Black. For 11.99 you get a set of 60 Thee best deal you will ever see as most 1pound adhesive hook are 10-20 for 1-6 I’m setting my pc on top a higher area next to my massive desk/hutch. Used ikea metal rod shelves zip tied to ikea both room metal rod swiveling towel holders to be mounted onto the hutch with extra wood support to hold more resistance. Effectively it will keep my pc from tipping over I made (2) one for the back and the front. The front has ( two of the four ) rods free to move so I can hang headsets and headphones. The front also had 3 metal trays about 4” deep and 6x6 in LxW The metal rod shelves were kitchenwear and the two support rods have square shapped Rubber stoppers on the effectively to prevent any transfer of conduction and still see my glass panel and interior of the pc with access to the front and the back. I have ikea chair foam attachable about 3ft by 5.5ft and enough to rig along the wall for 3-5” of food padding. Though it’s cost effective to get a roll of Black foam off amazon and stick with the 24” width only. Don’t go below 5” thick For $75 it’s 5x24x72 you may be able to get by with 1 or 2 if you go sideways for one wall But with plenty in my the basement I’ll use the chair attachments and put a fabric over the random color lol. By the way the is super light you can use the extra clips and some fishing line or thread to penetrate the foam and feed it threw the hooks for simple mounting with no surface damage to the wall. The foam will also be sound dampening aka proofing at the same time but 5” thick all around

You really do need a room designated for VR. Crucial to have zero glare and least amount of obstructions for space and deflection. I tried it in similar living room. The tracking was never right.

Those tension rods are genius, I was going to buy a light stand. I ordered 4, I'm going to use two for light houses and two for my large green screen. Update: Tension rods have replaced all my tripods now. I had tripods for studio lights and now I just use tension rods for those also. Just buy what are called super clamps and you can get a studio light end that screws into them. If there is a bundle deal of them I'd consider going that route if you stream and leave things up permanently. I have 6 now and I would have saved a bit had I gone with a 6 or even 8 pack to begin with.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat??!!? Jesus, its like its made for hobbits, lol! Here in Sugar Land most of our ceilings are 10' high in any home made in the last 20 years or so, and often in the living room the 1.5 story house is popular, where half of the home has double height that goes all the way up to the ceiling of the second floor's ceiling, which comes out to about 22' or so, and the great room, dining room, dining nook, and kitchen are all one big area. We call that "open concept" which is the most popular, so there's really no such thing as a small room. The smallest I have, which is considered quite compact is 13x11' with a closet and shared bathroom since its just a guest bedroom. O_O My big issue is that I'm trying to use what is my "dining area" in my open concept as a VR zone, but the smallest I can make it with available wall-space is 7 meters diagonal and the HTC Vive is complaining, but still seems to work OK despite its warning protest. *shrugs*

I have a tv protector. Controller protective guards which are amasing. A mat in the middle of the room. Steams app turn signal to show the centre of the room, where the ceiling is and to stop your cable tangling up and locomotive vr for walking without moving by using your arms walking motion to navigate. I know there is a piece of software in production that uses you joging on the spot to move around called RIP (run in posistion) and is downloaded with a lil help from google.

I mean, if you have $100k to drop on one, sure, why not?

The idea to use tension rods is something I haven't seen before - I've ordered some straight away! When you're in rented accommodation, its even harder to justify drilling into the wall

Be sure not to overextend them - it's very easy to accdientally push your ceiling up! They don't need to withstand human levels of yanking on them, just enough to not fall over .

@@MakeUseOf I decided to give the other kind of tension rods a go - the ones people use to hang lightweight curtains or netting between the window recess - so I shouldn't have to worry about putting a hole in the ceiling :D

Hmm, not sure I'd trust a $100 basestation to those flimsy things though...

I always wondered where those tracking mistakes came from when I got near the glass closet or the TV. Thank you. But I can't remove the ventilator on the ceiling :( it is a sturdy one but I hit it every time I try to shoot those barnacles. That's really inconvenient :/

I was wondering if it was ok to use vr in a bright room like light from the ceiling from light bulbs

Oculus will only work in bright rooms as it needs to see the surrounding; Index/Vive can work in the dark if you want, but doesn't mind room lighting. Neither will work in bright sunlight. It's really just reflective surfaces you need to look out for!
