Windows Mixed Reality Whip in Crescendo of the Blood Moon Quest
I love Rec Room, and everything in the game for Windows Mixed Reality (WMR) has worked great for me so far. The only issue is the whip for me in VR. It does not work well at all, and I have not found a good way to use it properly. Most of the time it goes whereever it wants, or it does not do anything at all when I swing to use it. What is the best way to use the whip with a WMR?

To be quite fair, the WMR is really tricky because it requires you to have your hands in front of you at all times. Not a big problem with stuff with guns you aim (Paintball, Laser Tag, Rec Royale, Jumbotron) but stuff were the hands can go out of view tends to give WMR some trouble. (Disc Golf, Paddleball, Dodgeball, and the quest you mentioned, Crescendo of the Blood Moon.)

Some tips I can give you is to hold your hands always in front of you when you're trying to whip stuff. Instead of pulling the controller back to snap the whip, pressing the trigger will also snap it back instead of doing a pulling back motion. This helps a lot for users that get tired after a while, but it should also help with any tracking issues that may arise from moving controllers too much.

Another thing is that admittebly the devs aren't the best when it comes to WMR support. I know there have been patches to address WMR bugs like throwing and moving in general but feedback from what I have seen is mixed. I think it varies also a little between which WMR you use, considering there are like a lot of variations from different companies that might do stuff differently.

Anyways, best of luck. If you need help still trying to beat the quest for the weekly (which I assume that's why you're trying it, since it is the weekly for a while) you can always add me, and we can tackle it with another person and such. My in-game @name is @StarCenturion.

Even with my hands in front of my face, the whip and throwing any object is screwed up. I'd definitely play more if they can fix this for WMR.
