vive_ros: Universal ID invalid #6

Closed abhigoudar closed 5 years ago

abhigoudar commented 8 years ago

I am trying to get the HTC vive running using vive_ros. I am facing a couple of issues:

  1. The server complains of broken pipes immediately after running the vive node (this is done after launching the vrserver).
  2. I noticed that the default 'config' was being used for play area and universe ID. There was a printout for invalid 'Universe ID'. Looking at the windows counterpart revealed a .vrchap file which seems to contain the 'play-area' specification. Is there a way to tell the ros node to use specific config files ?

Thank you.
