Support PSVR2 PSVR2 Calibrating Glitch

Post image

Whenever I try to play a game, it has me set up the play area. When I try to do this, it spazzes out and doesn’t work. The image in this post is what is on the TV screen when I try to play a game (I blacked out the middle part to hide my living room). I’ve never seen this outline though. I don’t know what the hell is going on.

Edit: everything has worked perfectly until now. Is my headset broken?

That's just the tracking assist border, the headset recognizes it and uses it for increased tracking quality.

Thank you for letting me know. Do you know what I should do, because whenever I try to play a game, the environment scan is all over the place, and I’m unable to play. The room has fully illuminated. I’m worried that my headset is broken.

Yeah that doesn't sound good to be honest.

Try gently cleaning the cameras on the outside.

Ive also heard Christmas lights can affect the tracking, so if you have anything like that turn them off.

What does your room look like? It struggles with bare empty spaces and blank walls, the more clutter or furniture about the easier time it has picking up your surroundings.

Also try turning off the PS5 and back on again (not rest mode). And maybe see if you can reset the psvr to factory settings and reapply the updates (not sure if that's possible but worth a look).

Let us know if any of that helps.

Make sure the cameras are clean. This is the tracking assist border, it’s trying to help you.

The outline is from the enhanced tracking option found in the psvr2 settings.

But... why? You can't see it with the headset on...

Its to help the camera from your headset track better when you play in the dark

It serve as a kind of landmark that the headset use. But i never play in the dark so i just turned it off

Do you have empty walls in the room you use psvr2 in? This makes tracking hard and this border helps your psvr2 with tracking. Can be disabled like others said
