Natural Locomotion

Walk, run and jump naturally using your arms or feet movements in any VR game that supports thumbstick locomotion

Natural Locomotion is an application that emulates the controller thumbstick input (to use in any game), to walk, run and jump more naturally moving your arms or your feet. It includes a driver for SteamVR for this purpose.

It comes with profiles for several popular games and apps. Just select one, check the game is configured as shown, and play. The profile manager allows you to make profiles for games not already included.

Natural Locomotion helps to reduce motion sickness according to these 2 principles

• Your hands/feet movements are transfered 1:1 to the locomotion speed and direction of the VR artificial locomotion.
• Head movements while walking in place (even in hands mode) could reduce the sensitivity of the vestibular system (equilibrium) preventing sensory disociation.

  NOTE: Natural Locomotion doesn't provide comfort options by itself (FoV reduction, etc), that's dependent on each game. If you need it, make sure the games you want to play have the feature and is enabled.

  Slowly swing your hand controllers to walk or move them fast to run.

  Other "arm swinger" implementations are very "jumpy", very slow to respond, or are a complement on button actions. Natural Locomotion uses a novel system designed to walk and run continuously, and with very precise and intuitive control of speed and acceleration. You can start, stop or change speed very quickly without "move" or "brake" buttons, it just depends on the speed you move your arms.
  
  Updates:
• Buttonless activator based on gestures:

• Hands mode is now compatible with body trackers (Smartphones and trackers). Using a body tracker, the direction of the movement depends on where your hip is oriented which could make this locomotion method even more immersive and comfortable.

Use motion sensor devices (see the list below) attached in your feet to register your feet movements and walk in the game. It supports two kind of movements: Walk-in-place and swinging feet while sitting on a chair or using a treadmill.

Align VR spaces of different tracking systems

Combine lighthouse devices (Trackers, HTC Vive controllers or Index controllers) with Oculus, WMR or Vive Cosmos headsets.

Convert some SteamVR controllers into trackers

This tool will temporarily emulate HTC Vive trackers using other lighthouse devices (And Oculus CV1 controllers) without flashing them.

Convert Steam Controller dongles to Vive/Index dongles

This utility allows you to convert Steam Controller dongles into Vive/Valve controller/tracker dongles (and restore them).

https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/798810/extras/convert_dongles.gif

You need one dongle per device. A Vive or Index headset has two of them built in. For example if you have 4 controllers and an Index/Vive headset (only USB and power connected), you only have 2 receptors and you need 2 dongles to use all controllers.

You can always try to make your own profiles or to modify the existing ones.

Some profiles are available in some headsets only (or not at all) due to technical limitations.
