Open ixtrix opened 9 months ago

9 months ago I agree more options for this would be good (affects WMR controllers as well).
One idea I had, inspired by the REFramework, is moving your hand beside your head to make the stick control the dpad. Or some other position-based modifier that won't interfere with most games.

9 months ago I just realized - on WMR we have a right menu button which is completely unused! I think Pico does too. The easiest solution would be to use this as the dpad shifter.
It seems like we should be able to map it ourselves through the injector, but I can't get the extra button to map to anything. I'll open a dedicated issue for this: #37

9 months ago The menu button on pico opens up the Pico HUB/VD options, so I think it has to be done through the grips/other non system buttons for this.

9 months ago Index user here with same problem. Also Index has 2 touchpads you could use either as touch touchpad + controller (like default withthum rest) or use the touchpad directly as 4 way dpad.

9 months ago If you don't need to use the right joystick for control, you can change your right joystick to control the D-PAD. The method of use is as follows: Open the UE menu in the game->Click Input->Click Right Thumbrest+Left joystick ->Select Right Joystick (Disables Standard Joystick Input) ->At this time, your right joystick is up to D-PAD UP,And so on -> Next close the menu and enjoy the game!

9 months ago Sorry, i just came in, and i have a pico 4, what s your problem exactly? The issue is the lack of the cross buttons maped on the controller to sélect the spells?
In this case, what i notice is the right grip is useless, the best would be to transforme the right joystick in D-Pad when we tighten the grip.

9 months ago @ixtrix could you change the title to be more descriptive? Something like "[Request] Provide alternative ways to enable Dpad for controllers without thumb rest". I don't want this to get lost.

9 months ago Hey guys, just managed to add an alternative dpad-shifting method (Right joystick click + Left joystick) based on UEVR 1.2. See the release link below. I have tested it with a few games. Seems to work fine. I am going to test some more games before a pull request.

very interested how your testing goes, and just curious isn't one of the existing dpad shifting options right joystick click+left joystick?) or is this using different syntax than the existing option?

9 months ago @joeyhodge The existing option is the right "thumb rest" which is a touch-sensitive area on the face of Oculus controllers, beside the buttons. Not the thumb stick.
@wdoo02 That sounds great, I'll have to try it. The only problem is that in some games the right stick click is a needed function.

9 months ago gotcha, thanks for clarification, same as "trackpad" currently, yes? I also do not have that on G2 controllers if so, and would likely benefit from that patch

9 months ago HAPPY to report, the new dpad shifting you added works like a charm for me in openXR G2

9 months ago Initial version of gesture-based DPad shifting has been implemented in 1404191ac58f28eaab3f5e93ad62a8955af16ed5. Will need to switch the shifting method under Input. Dev builds can be downloaded from Actions
For now it is
I will add the right controller soon and can add something like arm near the waist as well

9 months ago just amazing, thank you very much !!! good job and thanks again

9 months ago It s a very good idea combined to the one of joeyhodge as well. Thank you so much.
But do you have a file to download or install in the folder uevr 1.02 ?

9 months ago Nice work PD, works great! sometimes takes a couple tries of moving left controller near head before it vibrates, but not bad at all. I'm sure it will only continue to get fine tuned/more options in future, but this takes care of a really big need in a lot of games for folks. If you have the full release of 1.02 beta, then can use that same folder and just replace the single file UEVRBackend.dll with the new one on github actions tab under the latest run on the summary page at bottom under artifacts

9 months ago A few notes testing 1.03 with Reverb G2:
- I don't get any vibration to tell me when my hand is in position (I do get vibration from the game)
- Left joystick mode works as expected
- Right joystick mode sends dpad commands but also sends snap turns at the same time, with that option enabled. I would expect snap turn to be disabled when in dpad mode.
agreed on the right joystick commands, however, I do get vibration on both methods (G2 OpenXR 2080 super) although it takes me a couple of tries and would very much like the option that was made in this thread as well:

The more I test the gesture method, the more inconsistent and more attempts it takes before it actually works. Can you please also give the option listed above Right joystick click + Left joystick (disables R3) as that was 100% reliable especially in games when dpad is time sensitive.

9 months ago @wdoo02 @praydog Please, Is it possible to ADD in the last release 1.03 the DPAD method click R3 + Left joystick (disables R3) ? The more we have; the better, and i tested it of Lies of P; kena and Hogwarts legacy and it works amazing.
Thank you again.

9 months ago I have catch up with the current version and opened a pull request. "click L3 + Right joystick (disables L3)" is also added. When using this method, snap turn is temporarily disabled when the left joystick is pressed.
As for the snap turn issue: I am unable to temporarily disable snap turn for gesture + right stick in my patch. My guess is that this is caused by the difference in frequency between the gesture-detection and the key-mapping.

9 months ago So we just need to take uevr 1.03 and change the backend.dll by yours ?

The pico 4 doesnt have touch controller/thumb rest buttons, can you add an option so it uses both grips and a joystick as an options for the DPadMethod.
