Hi there! I am a HTC VIVE user and I am developing a gigantic space shooting VR game based on 12 VIVE trackers with 12 hyperkin blaster pistol. Could you please explain that how to make multiple tracker trigger function with steam VR version1.14 and upper? Thank you!

There are 12 tracker role in unity steamvr plugin and 11tracker role in steam vr input binding ui. And rightnow we could set several tracker to one tracker role such as tracker_hand_left, but it seems that only the first tracker could work as suspected for each tracker role. Other tracker has a input dir like "device/htc/hand/left/vive_trackerXXXXXXX/" which seems could not be recognized by our unity application. Is that normal? How are we supposed to understand this new complicated mechanism? Could I possibly add custom tracker roles for 12, even 32 tracker gun? Thank you!

All of these trackers/blasters are connected to the same pc? Is this not in VR?

Half VR，like a local room multiplayer game with a huge dome projection screen. So all trackers are just connected to one PC.

Is there any way to bind unity actions to input of tracker_role_none? Those input paths are like "devices/HTC/vive_tracker_XXXXXXXX/input/..."

Hi dhjhero, How did you mqnqge to connect more rhen 8 tracking items? It doesn't recognize the other trackers that i connected to the pc. What is your setup? Where each usb stick is connected? Do you use the standard opener?
