I can't use the gravity gloves
I have been trying to pass the tutorial of the gloves but when I do the movement with my wrist the object doesn't come, I tried looking at some gameplay to see if I was doing it wrong but I wasn't. As a result I'm stuck at the tutorial. Any ideas. I'm using a vive controller

hold down and highlight the object for a longer period than a mere split second, and then yank your wrist back a little faster and harder

You will see the object you are aiming at light up, if it doesn't light, you are not holding yhou hand in the right position for aim. Once you got it with trigger pulled, Pull your hand from the object like you are trying to drag it towards you. You'll figure it out but when you get the hang of it, it works very well and easy and you will throw and grab really fast and naturally.

Think of it as pulling a string the object is attached to. Make sure you also have the object highlighted before you do this as doing it too fast means you'll have nothing highlighted and, thus, pull nothing. Hope this helps.

You also have to do the "grab object" hand thing (there's a reason they were originally "grabbity" gloves lol).

Tomorrow I would try again, now I'm checking the game files to see if it is not something file related. Thank you all for your responses.

Make sure you have your palm facing down, not at the object, so the claws on the gloves raise and glow, like you're pointing at it, then grab, quick pull, grab.
You really have to flick that thing
Nope, Have the same problem, nothing flicks.

aim at the object, you will see it light up and highlight so you know when you are aiming at it, hold the trigger constantly and do not let go, then flick your controller like you are trying to pull it as if it is on a piece of invisible string. It should work and very easily. Let us know.
