# Steam VR Tracker Support

## Introduction:

Animotive supports the connection of 3 SteamVR Trackers:

* Left Foot
* Right Foot
* Waist/Pelvis

These additional trackers allow you to perform more advanced character motion than the more basic 3 point tracking (using just the VR Headset and 2 Hand Controllers), allowing for a greater range of motions as well as more natural walking, jumping and sitting.

This guide will explain how to set up SteamVR trackers for use within Animotive.

To use this type of tracking you will need to ensure SteamVR is enabled as your active OpenXR runtime, which can be done within the SteamVR Settings menu: SteamVR > Settings > OpenXR > SET STEAMVR AS OPENXR RUNTIME
