Using a custom model controller

[TheLLspectre]

Hi ! :)
I'm starting to use the mixed reality toolkit for Unity, I have a custom model for the controller and i see in the DefaultControllerPointer there is an empty Transform for the raycast origin.
How i can affect it automatically when i launched the game. I try to create a prefab for the raycast and i try by a script, but i think i missed something ....
Do you have some advice ??

Thanks ;)

Are you using the legacy HoloToolkit or the Mixed Reality Toolkit vNEXT Alpha?

I'm using the mixed Reality Toolkit Alpha for Unity

On the Controller Mapping Profile you can assign a custom model at the top:

I already do that, sorry, i want to assign an empty gameObject for the orgin of the raycast, i saw there is an empty transform to assign it one, but i want to assign it before to launch the game, i only succed after launching it ...

Okay, so you're trying to change the raycast location based on your custom controller model?

I'd make an empty game object with the transform data you need, then assign that to your custom pointer prefab.

That's it !

It's what i tried, i make this empty object in the world on my custom model and then i make prefab of this. And i affect the empty gameObject from the prefab to the transform but when i launch, the raycast start from the position of the empty in the world where it was placed not on my controller ... It's come from the creation of the differents parts of the mixed reality toolkit. You know when you start, it instiate some clones: left controller(clone), left defaultPointer(clone), left teleport(clone) and the same for the right. So it need to take data from the left controller(clone) for example to the raycast origin. I know the problem but i don't find how to fix it ..

It the first issue, because i have two customs controllers one for the left and one for the right. So that's mean i need to assign two differents empty objects.

I make some screen ;)

My prefab with the empty object RayCastOrigin

I affect the empty gameObject to the raycast origin parameter

And i test, the right hand have the defaultControllerPointer(so no custom rayscast origin) and the left have the custom one and you see the raycast not start on the left hand and doesn't follow it ...

You'll need to update your pointer profile as well.

Create a new pointer profile and add the new pointer prefabs and assign the controller types you'd like to use.

Something like that ??
I try this too, and when i launch the raycast stay in the hand, there is just a point (the cursor) between two fingers i can't point nothing

EDIT:
I try this way and still have the same problem the raycast doesn't start from the controller
Can you explain:

Create a new pointer profile and add the new pointer prefabs and assign the controller types you'd like to use.

I think it was possible to access to the raycast Origin parameter from the Pointer Line component like any other Unity and script component from a script. (getter/setter) To initialize it when you start the game by a script
