Unable to bind mouse buttons/movements in OpenVr

PLEASE ADD THE FUNCTIONALITY PLSSSS

[INJFLEA7272]

EVEN XPADDER HAS IT

Can you elaborate on how this would work? I don't have a use case of my own so I need to know why this is a wanted feature.

Also, Xpadder is a paid product, they earn money from that, this is made available for free.

[INJFLEA7272]

I pirated Xpadder and didn't pay a cent. As for the use case, you could write a script to detect mouse movement and register it as a bind (ex. Mouse moves up = mouse up) and have another script that moves the Mouse when the keybind is pressed

[BOLL7708]

The fact you pirated something doesn't mean they aren't earning any money at all, it just means you didn't contribute to their earnings. And regardless if you spent money there, it doesn't mean that I will have more time or resources to work on this project.

When I asked for a use case, I wondered what you would use this feature for, how it would help you, the reason why I should implement mouse simulation in my key simulator.

[INJFLEA7272]

I would use this for games that require a mouse to interact with objects, move a characters camera around, and be able to play non VR shooters in vr
An example game would be Voices of the Void, where there is a PC in the game where you upgrade things and buy items, this interaction requires a mouse to do.

What are you using to show the game in VR? In my case I just use SteamVR desktop view or Virtual Desktop so it's possible to just point at the virtual screen and it will act as a mouse, thus I've never needed this ability.

[INJFLEA7272]

I am using steam VR and then using UEVR in combination with OpenVR2Key

[BOLL7708]

Wait, what is even going on here. So you're not actually playing a game in the desktop view, you are running UEVR for a game that requires mouse input? Does UEVR itself not provide emulation of mouse features? I feel like that would be a main thing provided by that modding solution considering it is meant to convert desktop titles to VR, I've only looked at it briefly myself.

[INJFLEA7272]

UEVR only provides emulated mouse input for the menu and not the game itself for some reason, the last time emulated mouse input for UEVR was talked about was January 2024
UEVR mouse binds suggestions

I'm now working on a new project that will include mouse simulation from VR input. I need some real life use case descriptions so I know what features to include, and so I can test so the implementation makes sense. The things that I want to enable:

Loose plans

• Relative mouse movement, as it is simple, is there a need for absolute mouse positioning?
• Simulation of mouse buttons 1-5, as that is what the library I use supports.
• The ability to control mouse movement with controller or HMD orientation, or by joystick or trackpad input.
• The ability to reverse X or Y axis.
• Actions to be able to tweak some of the settings, like adjusting pixels per degree etc.

What I want to know from you

1. Which games or applications would you use mouse simulation with?
2. What would you do in said game or application that requires mouse simulation?
3. Which features would you need from mouse simulation to fulfill your needs?

[INJFLEA7272]

1. I would play fps (ultrakill, cyber rush, Titanfall 2, etc.), RPGs (ARK survival, oblivion, palworld, etc) and other games that require mouse simulation (the perfect tower 2, VOTV, beaming drive, etc.)
2. Moving between/ interacting with menus, looking around with the camera, interacting with objects that require mouse input, attack binds that are bound to mouse etc.
3. Basic emulated mouse movement and binds would do for now, it doesn't matter how buggy it is right now, as it would improve in the future.
