Step by Step Software Setup
1: Download and Install the Virtual Controller Driver
Download MixedRealityTwoController-0-0-3.zip and extract it.
There is a folder called virtualcontroller inside it. Copy this folder, and move it to your Steam drivers folder. Your full path to the dll should be something like:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SteamVR\drivers\virtualcontroller\bin\win64\driver_virtualcontroller.dll
Update: The SteamVR folder may be called OpenVR.
2: Enable Multiple Driver Support
Edit your config/steamvr.vrsettings to enable "activateMultipleDrivers". This is what allows the virtual controller driver to co-exist with the Vive drivers. Be sure to mind your commas. Check vrserver.txt log to see if there were parse errors. Many of the settings are described at https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamVR/steamvr.vrsettings .
{ ... "steamvr" : { "activateMultipleDrivers" : true } }
3: Make the controllers show up in the correct order
You want the virtual controller to be recognized by SteamVR as the third controller, here is how to do that:
Exit SteamVR
Turn on your two controllers (press the system button)
Start SteamVR and make sure both the controllers are seen by your lighthouse (not flashing green).
The third controller will appear after a few seconds. If your physical controllers go to sleep you may need to repeat this process.
4: Generate your externalcamera.cfg file
Included in the zip you downloaded is an application called cameraAlign. Run this program, put on your headset and follow the instructions. When you hit save the externalcamera.cfg file in the directory is updated.
Quick Message From RCVR!
"Thanks for watching my video, really I mean it! I hope it had enough silliness to make you laugh, but not too much that I annoyed the crap out of you. Last thing I wanna do is scream in your ear and piss you off... you're my friend and I want you to come back and see more of my vidz)) I plan on releasing all types of different videos in a variety of formats, almost always related to technology or gaming, but sometimes it will be about real life and interesting topics that I want to take on. As I said before I really appreciate your view, feel free to message me or comment if you would like any help with product or development promotion. I love helping others and connecting with interesting people in the community! Also, if you think that I could help you with some graphic design or video editing let me know, I do it everyday!
