Valve Index can’t open menu (FIXED,UNFIXED,Fixed)

[redmiata98]

I’ve tried left and right joystick back/forward separately and together, pushed down once snd twice on each and together = no menu! Seems like neither B button is used for anything, why not use one of those? Playing through Steam & Vive app with Vive pro 2 and index controllers.
Reading through the discussion section opening the menu continues to be a problem, wish it could be fixed. Happy to provide any other software/hardware data that might fix this. I’ll try verifying the files (again) tonight but don’t have much hope it will help.
The new update has fixed the menu access problem through Steam and Vive counsel for both the Valve Index and Vive controllers (17 Feb 24)!

Verified all files last night but still no menu access.

It doesn't work for anyone with this configuration. The developers gave up, even though I bought the game. It hasn't worked for a year now. After updating the game. HTC vive 2 pro + index controllers.

Thanks for the answer…and the B buttons ARE used for the weapons summons and to switch weapon hand.

Hi Guys,

We did not give up, in fact we are actually working on an update which supports steamVR as we still see most of the issues are coming from wrongly using openXR vs SteamVR.

So hopefully soon this will have some more stability for everyone. That said, the button configuration as we stated is the correct one and that works on almost every other person's headset. We got thousands of players who played the game with index controllers and had no issues.

We are quite sure there is something off with the configuration on your end when this combo does not work, we just try to figure out how or what it could be. Most likely your controls are saved somewhere else and are not being cleared correctly by reinstalling or verifying your save files, which make them now map incorrectly to that the game expects to get. If you check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKRuJl-mvmU They show how to reset bindings for VRChat you can try to do the same but for Hubris perhaps this works for you?

Kind regards,

Koen

I did everything. I even completely reinstalled Windows...

No idea what it could be then to be honest, the thing is that our binding in code is literally the press joystick on left controller, is this button still functional in other games? Perhaps the input is just broken?

Cyborn,
Good to know you guys are still patching this game. I tried the above instructions and it did not work for me either. Joystick on left controller is completely functional in other games so it must have something to do with an incompatibility between the controller, steam, vive and Hubris. Willing to try any beta patch that you guys come up with as long as I don't loose my current progress. I am just climbing the Tera former and would not want to start over again.
This is an excellent VR game that I am enjoying immensely. It is my second favorite after NoMan’sSky!

There will be a beta branch coming live hopefully this evening with SteamVR support, perhaps this solves your input bindings.

Normally saves carry over, you can always just copy and paste your save data located in the local app data Hubris VR folder if you want to make sure nothing is lost.

Kind regards,

Koen

Hi Redmiata, Good to hear you are able to progress, however we did not publish anything yet? Did you change to a beta branch and then started playing or what did you do to make the input bindings work?

We are however glad you are able to continue the game, if you like what you are seeing make sure to upvote our game on Steam as it tremendously helps us.

Kind regards,

Koen

I switched over to the beta version figuring you had made the change. Apparently, a fix was already in the beta. So, if you have the same config, add the beta check mark and it should work for you too. Thanks Koen!

Hija,

Glad to hear this works for you, we will publishing this update to live in two weeks, in the mean time we are looking forward to any feedback, so feel free to let us know how it works.

If you like what we did make sure to leave a positive review!

Kind regards,

Koen

Koen,
The update today broke the ability to get to the menu. It was working with the beta before today's update but does not now. Additionally, there is a grey cloud around the eyepieces that was not there before. It doesn't obscure the whole sight but does narrow the field of view. It's a circle of grey around each lens now. Checked the headset with other games and it is only with Hubris and was not present before the update. PLEASE bring back the ability to use the menu! Thanks
Also, when I entered the tank with the 2 squid to retrieve the soldering gun: I entered and when I hit the button for my weapon once in the water it did not load the underwater gun but another one that was useless on the squid. After I died, I came back in and the underwater gun loaded properly. (One time, probably a blip)

Hija, answered this on another thread as well, can you let me know if you pressed both left and right joystick controllers for opening the menu? As just the left controller press made it that players accidentally opened the menu too often.
