VR Controls on Meta Quest 2
This is my first VR game and I'm having a tough time figuring out the controls. I can move around and change the movement modus etc. But how do I interact with things? I can't even bring up the adjunct tool.

I'm pressing R Grip or L Grip or both at the same time -- nothing. What am I doing wrong?

The tool is "holstered" next to either of your legs - you should be able to just reach down to it with either hand, and press the grip button when near the handle. (EDIT: It "teleports" right back to holstered, when you let go of it.)

(EDIT2: Most stuff in the game is static objects -- there are a few books that can be read (EDIT3: ...instantly recogniseable as "hero props", compared to the low level of detail on other books), but otherwise the adjunct is almost the only way you interact with the world.)

Yeah I just figured it out by accident. Thanks!

I've just bought the game & hate the controls! Why can't you change them to up down left right? As a left hander with a trackpad they're bloomin ridiculous! I don't understand what half the 'mouse' instructions mean either. Call me stupid but having played all the Myst games, I'm only just starting this & can't interact with the game. Can someone please put sensible instruction &/or keyboard modifications in please?

Hmm... Trackpad you say... soo... HTC Vive?

What sort of controls is the game giving you, exactly? ...and you really mean you're getting tutorial prompts for mouse, rather than your hand controllers?

I do agree that controls should aways be configurable as much as possible, but there *is* at least a choice of which hand does the locomotion in options, and, at least for me, I get the control scheme used by almost every other game: Translation on the stick/trackpad on one hand; Forward, Backward, Strafe left and right; And turning on the stick on the other...

EDIT: ...or wait... are you playing in VR, but by choice using mouse and keyboard instead of room-tracked hand controllers?
