About This Software
Walk, run and jump naturally using your arms or feet movements in any VR game that supports thumbstick locomotion
Natural Locomotion is an application that emulates the controller thumbstick input (to use in any game), to walk, run and jump more naturally moving your arms or your feet. It includes a driver for SteamVR for this purpose.It comes with profiles for several popular games and apps. Just select one, check the game is configured as shown, and play. The profile manager allows you to make profiles for games not already included.
Natural Locomotion doesn't provide comfort options by itself (FoV reduction, etc), that's dependent on each game. If you need it, make sure the games you want to play have the feature and is enabled. From our tests and from all comments after release, the 1:1 movement of Natural Locomotion avoids motion sickness, although we need a much bigger sample size to claim that for sure.
Hands mode
Slowly swing your hand controllers to walk or move them fast to run.Other "arm swinger" implementations are very "jumpy", very slow to respond, or are a complement on button actions. Natural Locomotion uses a novel system designed to walk and run continuously, and with very precise and intuitive control of speed and acceleration. You can start, stop or change speed very quickly without "move" or "brake" buttons, it just depends on the speed you move your arms.
NOTE: We recently added a new locomotion activator based on gestures which does not require to press any button. See the announcement of the update for more details: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/798810/view/2916608090291021223
Feet mode
Use motion sensor devices (see the list below) attached in your feet to register your feet movements and walk in the game. It supports two kind of movements: Walk-in-place and swinging feet while sitting on a chair or using a treadmill.Software requirements:

You can always try to make your own profiles or to modify the existing ones.
Some profiles are available in some headsets only (or not at all) due to technical limitations.
