Help with Leapmotion cockpit interaction

[CougarFFW04]

Hi everyone,

I am running DCS in VR mode (Reverb G2) on a brand new computer (i5 13600 KF + RTX4080 + 64G Ram) with the old  (not the ultra controler 2 version) Leapmotion. I have installed the latest Gemini version (V5.12) and copy Ultraleap\OpenXR\LeapC.dll to the DCS directories as I was having this problem :in

 

My problem is that although the Leapmotion seems to properly work (I can see the virtual hands both in the leap and in the DCS VR interface) I am unable to interact with any cockpit buttons. Not even speaking about side rotary... Even not possible to push any front button like those of the DDI...

I have seen some video for exemple

where it seems to work like a charm, so I suppose I am doing something wrong...
Any help/advises are welcome.

- Could it be a problem because of the dll ?
- by the way should we run some leap motion in the background or DCS manage thes things by itself ?

 

Thanks

It works only in some modules (mostly dcs modules). You must have the ultraleapprogram active... If you see your hands in the cockpit then the device is working.

Is difficult to point and click, at my experience your hand finger must go from backwards to front till reaching the button you want to push.

Try the f-18 module, is the most friendly with leapmotion.

Also install the last ultraleap gemini drivers and put the dll inside the bin-mt folder and inside the bin folder also

Also you must have of course the device mounted in your headset.

To rotate knobs actually is a bit complicated because the pinch function is not implemented, so you must reach the knob with your idex from below and move the hand left or right.

Its is a bit tricky
