Thank you :D: ...and I look forward to more on roadtovr.com :spacehelmet:

Thank you for actually taking the time to read it. I didn't think a guide would be needed either until I had trouble getting it all working myself! Increasing the positional tracking volume is really important too as the default is tiiiiny!
