Steam 2.0.1 + Vive Trackers + Unity

[javinair]

Hello,

I am trying to create a new project with the latest SteamVR SDK (2.0.1) for Unity (2018.2.0f2).

Importing the package from the AssetStore works perfectly with one or two Vive controllers. The problem appears if I try to use 2 Vive trackers instead of 2 Vive controllers. I can not make they appear in scene (they are paired and working properly in the mini SteamVR app).

I have been working previously without any problem with SteamVR 1.2.3 and Vive trackers, but there are some classes that are not currently in this version, such as SteamVR_Controller_Manager.cs. So I would like to know if I have to perform some changes or this version is not ready to use with Vive trackers yet.

Thanks in advance.

We've got some more extensive tracker support coming in the next version. I'll be releasing a beta soon that provides better access to this functionality. I'll update here when I release that.

Here's the link to a beta version of the plugin with this feature: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamvr_unity_plugin/releases/tag/2.1b2
You should now be able to set actions to check a more specific "devices". For example you can set a tracker to be on the "right foot" then set an action to check the "right foot" for a value. Let me know if this works for you.

This is now in 2.2b4: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamvr_unity_plugin/releases/tag/2.2b4
