Mixed Reality Movement

[Dichotomy]

The default movement with mixed reality controllers is to use the touchpads. I’ve attempted to change the settings with no luck thus far. Has anyone else run into this issue?

If you’ve used a mixed reality touchpad, then you know it’s of faulty design and has inconsistent inputs... but the analogs work perfectly. Has anyone else been able to change the movement to the analog sticks? If it’s the case that you can’t play with the analog sticks in Mixed Reality, then Contractors VR is currently unplayable on those headsets.

I've been playing around with the bindings, and in the settings it doesn't seem that you're able to adjust the joystick to be read as the trackpad—though my assumptions about how to change this could be incorrect. I tried the d-pad settings as well but nothing doing there. Unfortunately the most recent steam update is giving a compositor error in many mixed reality headsets if you’re using Beta—so any Beta adjustments could be out for the time being.

Has anyone successfully mapped the trackpad to the joystick by adjusting the settings for Contractor?

I'd like to know because I just ordered some mixed reality headsets myself and this look fun

While in the game click your stick to bring up the Steamvr overlay. Go to settings> controller binding. Choose Contractors then itll show you user bindings that implement thumb sticks.

When I did it there was only one there but it works perfectly.

I hope the Devs fix this without us having to change bindings manually. It's listed as a WMR supported game, so we shouldn't have to do this.

If you're using the trackpad, turn off snap turning, that should help.

Just tried someones remapping they made, can't get my character to run though, if you press the stick it just takes you to steam overlay.

Activate auto running in the games settings. Then you can walk/run with the joystick depending on how far you move the stick.

Awesome! They definitely weren't there before, and now I see 3 of them—this works for me as well. Thanks to whomever posted those bindings.

You're right that it would be a good idea to fix this in the future just to have the game functional by default for the growing Mixed Reality crowd.

Bummer. I'll be waiting for thumbstick support.

[Esoteric]

Extremely helpful, thank you!

[SuckerFreeGames]

I hope they put the MR defaults to the thumbstick soon. I cannot navigate well (at all) with the touch pad.

Did you read the post here? You can use steam to change it to sticks. Take 30 seconds.

Doesn't that change the defatult for all games though? I rather not change a univeral setting to my device and risk having to remember to set it back for games that actually configured their controls properly...

[viperchannel]

No, you can select the game so it will only change it for that one game!

Trackpad is not precise or walking into a direction permanently and not able to stop.

Fix:
Cut off 1 finger of a thin rubber glove and put it on your thumb...

+ Trackpad precision increased
+ No perma walking issue
