Allow game to be selected in Dolphin within headset

billyea commented 2 years ago

I have a dual monitor set up. Currently, when starting DorsalVR, the Dolphin game list window opens up on a different monitor than the one shown in the headset, which is a bit disorienting. Additionally, the Dolphin game list window is non-interactable within the headset. I have to take the headset off in order to launch a game or change Dolphin settings.

Suggest adding:

show only the Dolphin game list window within the headset (whatever monitor it may be on), on startup
forward controller aim and clicks to the Dolphin game list window to allow basic configuration changes/game launching

This is a fab idea, and I definitely want to implement it eventually, but it's a little tricky because it involves faking mouse input from VR input. It's totally possible but I'm focusing on other things for the moment so it'll be a little while before I get to this. I'll post another comment here when it's done!

A stopgap solution could be to just show the Dolphin window in VR and set the mouse cursor to the middle of it. We'd still have to find the mouse while wearing a headset, but at least we're not looking for the cursor anymore. The VR clicking can be implemented later.

Oh, I thought it was already doing that. It should be doing that! I'll look into it when I get a chance, but it probably won't be until November.
