Valve Index controller thumb stick as mouse wheel in 2.7


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I use Valve Index controller to manipulate buttons/knobs in a cockpit.

 

But since version 2.7 it is not possible to use thumb stick as mouse wheel which leads to problem that I am not able to turn knobs fluently or push/pull some buttons/levers (like wing fold lock in F18). I tried to turn knobs with the hand grip, but it is clumsy (e.g. cannot be used to pull+turn knob = altimeter).

So now I have to always take my mouse, which increases a delay (find mouse, hit the button ...).

 

I tried to search forum, but I just found one similar question with no answer.

 

I would be grateful for any advice, how to get working Index controller again like in older version.

Thank you.

After some fiddling around with the controller bindings in SteamVR I found a working solution.

I remapped the Thumb Stick settings for Position (Use as Joystick) to "Right Second Trackpad/Thumbstick Value" and the thumbstick up/downs is as left/right mouse button and left/right is as up/down mouse wheel. It is even better than before.
