[LINUX?] Controller button release event firing constantly & axis not working about godot_openvr HOT 10 CLOSED

Yep, can confirm axis work now - but as you said, they're mapped weirdly.
Button situation still the same tough.

Hey Ben,

Thanks for testing. I did do some changes yesterday and just realised I haven't commited them yet. I'll do that in the morning. I don't have controllers atm so its very possible I made a mistake. I did order some touch controllers yesterday so once they are in I can test myself :)

just have a look if you can see anything out of whack here:
https://github.com/BastiaanOlij/godot_openvr/blob/master/src/godot_openvr.cpp#L450

But note that code is about to change :)

I don't know if you had any more time to look at things but I did commit those changes I talked about. Whether they make any difference, no idea.

fingers cross my controllers should be arriving today and I can debug this

from godot_openvr.

I didn't have time yet - but hopefully this evening I can test it.

I haven't tested the button events yet but the axis are working for me on my touch controllers. The mapping is really weird though.

I think on the vive the trigger will probably be axis 4, not 2. I loop through 4 of the 5 axis and each has an x and y component, so x on axis 1, becomes axis 1 in Godot,
y on axis 1 becomes axis 2,
x on axis 2 becomes axis 3,
y on axis 2 becomes axis 4,
Etc.

Since the second axis on a vive controller is a trigger it only has a y which would become axis 4.

I might need to add in some more smarts and do some sort of axis mapping..

I think this is our problem:
https://github.com/BastiaanOlij/godot/blob/master/scene/3d/arvr_nodes.cpp#L207

Should be:
bool was_pressed = (button_states & mask) == mask;

I'll try it tonight

This seems to fix it:

godotengine/godot#12230

from godot_openvr.

Yep, that fixes it for me too.

I thought a bit about the axis mapping issue, what do you think about using an approach similar to Godot's controller mappings?

https://github.com/godotengine/godot/blob/5303efb2fabd668bef18b7ac7606426692e5d6bb/main/input_default.cpp#L529

This way we could have the buttons and axis a bit standardized, and easily add new mappings. Not sure how "similar" VR controllers are though...

@beniwtv where you still testing this on linux? I'm planning on putting a package together this weekend, it would be nice to confirm if the linux build is now working and maybe include a build in it as well.

Btw, I don't know if you hang out on IRC/Matrix but we created a channel on freenode + room on matrix: #godotengine-vr

from godot_openvr.

Yep, was planning on testing the rumble PR sometime this weekend. As far as this issue - apart from the weird axis mapping, things work now.

Will look into Matrix (have been wanting to test it anyway).
