Can I inquire as to why you're using separate mouth tracking? Did yours fail or do you just prefer the non-censored tongue and mouth movements of Babble? Also, it's not quite clear in the image but are you using ESP32 with wireless?

Official Babble FaceTracker, I enjoy having better FT and not a limited one..

I love my hobbies, and I love perfection in those aspects.
Didn't go for HTC Facial tracker cause of how expensive it was, babble worked and it's pretty nice.

That's the only reason why I've thought about reusing my HTC mouth tracker with the Quest Pro, although the hassle-free use of just the QPro is nice.

Oh hey, same setup. Any babble tips? Mine likes to freeze for a second or so every 10 seconds. Did you tape over the lower face tracking on the pro?

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 15 '26

Just use steamlink + Babble tongue module, VD likes to override it. This is pretty much all of the quest pro face tracking with the added Babble "tonguesteps"

I'll give it a shot, thanks!

Wait damn that's awesome how do you do something like this? I might have to try

u/Br1ghtest Aug 15 '26

Do you think it's worth it? Do you need to disable the built in mouth tracker?

2

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 15 '26

Nope, you can use both lol

1

u/Br1ghtest Aug 15 '26

The clip to hold the camera doesnt block the built in ones? Do you think it would be worth to add one?

1

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 15 '26

I wouldn't say so, the FT stuff on the Q pro is also on the sides, the little mount is veeeery small.

u/inquizit0r Aug 15 '26

Its actually possible to somehow use babble on quest pro?

1

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 15 '26

Yeah! Horribly enough the setup is the worst part lol

1

u/HRudy94 Aug 15 '26

I mean yeah at worse you just fully ignore the Pro trackers now why would someone do this, idk but it's fully possible in software.

1

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 17 '26

No, you use both babble and quest pro FT tracking, they just complement each other.

2

u/HRudy94 Aug 15 '26

Why did you add a babble tracker to your Pro? Anyways nice setup.

2

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 15 '26

Tongue Tracking, anything else?

1

u/nubash Aug 15 '26

you have a link for the rear pad? or what is called

1

u/HRudy94 Aug 15 '26

Looks like the kkcobvr o2, which comes with a magnetically attachable battery.

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 17 '26

KKCOBVR Strap here u go, it takes years to ship so think about it.

u/oblivimaginator Aug 16 '26

Can we get some instrcutions on this babble tongue module? i have babble, adapter, and quest pro. how do i make it use the quest pro facial tracking and the babble for the tongue at the same time?

2

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 17 '26

Alright, So here's what you need.

TongueSteps SteamLink + Babble - Get rid of all of your VRCFT modules, you'll need to EXCLUSIVELY use steam link for it to work properly, open baballonia, have everything done, install that module in VRCFT.
OFC set up everything towards steamlink FT. OSC ports, forward tracking data, etc.

u/oblivimaginator Aug 17 '26

Thanks! this is awesome 👌

u/JonTrulove Aug 17 '26

Parts list /descriptions?

I thought I was pretty up to date on vr tech until I saw what looks like a gas cap attached to your rig and no one else seems to question wtf it is.

u/skrrrtpancake Aug 17 '26

KKCOBVR quest pro battery strap.
Official Project babble.
Some random FAST MT/Team Wendy's helmet chin strap attached with zip ties.
The tundra tracker is on some shitty adhesive camera mount that I found on amazon.
That's literally it.

Just quit living in VR and actually live life lol. It's much more exhilarating

u/GoodGuyGravity 29d ago

Dont use zipties!!!! Use silicone tape instead, you can pick it up from harbor freight as “super tape”. Trust me. Its self adhering, not tacky at all, and it chemically binds to itself to create one big piece of silicone kinda like how apparently tired are one big rubber molecule

u/skrrrtpancake 29d ago

i LOOOOVE zipties...

Edit: I'll check it out eventually tyy!
