*If you would like a low battery alarm for your controllers, please check out [https://store.steampowered.com/app/1068820/OVR_Toolkit/ OVR Toolkit]. Once you install OVR Toolkit, open the settings by clicking the cog button. Click "Global Settings". Go to the very last option, and then click Volume. Slide "Low Battery Alarm" to the left for a quieter low battery alarm, and to the right for an obscenely loud alarm. I know that it's kind of hard to know where the alarm is coming from. Some people think it's Steam. It's not, it's OVR Toolkit and its unnecessarily loud DING DING DING of doom and death.

Playspace mover is a way of "Faking" your current height / width in VR. It is useful for when you are sitting down but want to appear full height, or for clipping through walls in certain games/areas. You can also use it to "climb" higher than normally possible in VR.


People still refer to it as Playspace Mover, however it is now embedded in OVR Advanced Settings on Steam.
