Some games break overlay interaction #10

Closed Hotrian closed 7 years ago

Hotrian commented 7 years ago

/u/macdaddyb on reddit pointed out that Overlay Gaze detection doesn't work in Elite Dangerous. This has possibly been fixed in my local source already, but I'm waiting on some feedback before I push it to the repo, since I haven't encountered a game that does this yet, and do not own ED so I can't test it myself.

I've gotten at least one report that I fixed this in 0a7ec4fa4ee85f6de84b6a46b971e6f5b31b2c61. Though, it seems like whatever ED does to the SteamVR Compositor is causing some other issues like the overlay being offset somewhat by the game starting up.

If I don't get any more reports of broken interaction soon I will consider this solved in 0a7ec4f, and close it with the next release.

Still not getting any reports of broken interaction. Some games will just refuse interaction because they request Exclusive Controller access, though I haven't seen any that do this yet, and is not something that can be fixed from my end.

Marking for v1.0.6 and closing this if I don't get any more reports before release since I think this was solved by using the current SteamVR Tracking Space instead of setting it.

v1.0.6 has now been released and I'm closing this issue. I haven't found any games that break Overlay interaction, though I'm certain eventually a game will request Exclusive Access to the controllers, but nothing can be done on my end to work around this.
