Valve Index and Vive 2.0 base stations
I got an Index HMD and Controllers for Xmas and the base stations are out of stock.
I'm wondering if anyone knows about the HTC Vive Base station 2.0 aka SteamVR 2.0 Base stations working with the Index? I'd rather purchase those than the 1.0 base stations as they're old.
And does anyone know if the SteamVR 2.0 and the Index Base stations will work together?
HTC Didn't seem to be able to answer my questions themselves.

Base Station compatibility?

1.0 (HTC-branded) and 2.0 (Valve-branded) Base Stations will not work with each other in the same VR setup.

Index will work with both 1.0 and 2.0 Base Stations.

2.0 Base Stations will not work with the original Vive headset or Wand controllers, but will work with the Vive Pro product family

What was said above. It literally said this right when I Google searched what I typed above in post #1

I feel bad that you can't even do that and find all the correct info. How the F do you even know how to use aa PC, let alone games and VR. Good lord.

You both don’t understand my questions.
SteamVR2.0 from Vive and the Valve Index base stations look the same but I’m asking if they’re compatible. Not the version 1.0. I know the 1.0 works with the index.
I’m asking if the 2.0 works with the index and if the 2.0 from HTC Vive is compatible with the Valve Index Bass stations and if the Valve index works with the HTC Vive 2.0 base stations.
So withdraw your comments about me not knowing how to use a PC since you are both mistaken. Please read my original Post in its entirety.
