Vive and Index cameras fixed. Thumb rest touch support Quest 2 + Virtual Desktop

This week we have received the new HTC Vive Pro 2 to ensure full compatibilty with Natural Locomotion.
Natural Locomotion is now reading the IDs of the connected USB devices to determine whether to use a workaround that is needed for the cameras but that could crash other headsets.



We have also added support for thumb rest touch (the capacitive sensor in Oculus Quest 2 controllers) to use as activator to walk. This option only works with Virtual Desktop so far, not with Oculus Link or Air Link (if Oculus adds this functionality it will work automatically).



[h2]Changes[/h2]

  • Added camera support for Vive, Vive Pro, Vive Pro 2, Vive Cosmos Elite and Valve Index.
  • Added thumb rest touch support for Oculus Quest 2.
  • Added thumb rest touch auto detection (if you touch it, it shows a pop-up asking if you want to enable it).
  • Added option to enable/disable thumb rest touch activator in common settings.


[h2]Important[/h2]
If you use a Vive or Index as wireless receiver for Lightouse controllers or trackers (and not as headset) while using other headset you should disable the camera to avoid crashes.
