u/Fluburtur

I recently got a used vive pro with lighthouses (for playing war thunder vr, plenty good for that and I dont need anything more and it was a decent price).

But the original lenses it came with are a bit scratched, I gave them a quick polishing but im looking at alternatives to solve some of the well known problems with them being fresnel.

I did some reading about the gearvr mod and while it doesnt seem to be as easy to do as a few years back it looks like I can still find a way to do it but im wondering what other alternatives there is for swapping or improving the lenses on that.

Im relatively new to this whole VR thing so while I have been doing my own research im aware that I may have missed some stuff.

I configured cura 5.10 to make my sv06+ believe it has a dual extruder with shared heater like in this guide. (to print 2 colors objects for the museum I work at currently)

This mostly works well exept after changing filament during the first layer using M600, the printer re-homes using relative position.

This means that with any filament change on the first layer, the nozzle will come back into contact with the print and potentially cause issues.

I looked at the generated gcode as well as the printer/nozzle start and stop gcodes in printer configuration and the only home command is at the start of the print so I assume this has to do with the printer built in filament change script and specifically so on the first layer, this doesnt happen after swapping the filament in layers after that.

How can I make it not happen? I assume it would require re-flashing modified firmware on the printer but if there is a simpler way it would be nice as well.

Also is there still printers with dual nozzles around?
