Think of this page as more of a dictionary, and the actual book is the How To Play page.

If you're using Index or WMR controllers, you'll need to select our official SteamVR bindings to play.

Pointer Button

To interact with some objects using hand controllers, you can hold the Pointer Button to show a laser pointer, point to a interactable object to highlight it, then press the other needed button as explained in the section below, to perform the action.

Controls

Again, this more of a quick dictionary, and to learn how to actually use each of these controls, read How To Play.

If you need to point someone to a specific control in this page, you can hover it with your cursor and a "Link" will show up. You can then just copy its address and paste it anywhere.

(If you're using Index or WMR controllers, after selecting our official SteamVR bindings, they'll be matching Touch controls as shown in this list.)

Game Focus Input Mapping (Touch / Vive)

EmuVR also remaps buttons on your Touch / Vive to buttons on a virtual Xbox 360/One controller, so that you can to play your games with them instead of a gamepad.

This layout may seem odd, but it was designed with comfort and convenience in mind for the most common systems, in a way that allows you to press all the face buttons at the same time with one hand.

With this you can dash-jump while charging a shot, if your game needs all those buttons being pressed together.

Index and WMR Controllers Support

If you're using Index or WMR controllers, you'll need to select our official controller bindings using SteamVR's interface.

For EmuVR to show up in the games list described below, EmuVR needs to be running before you open the bindings interface.

To open SteamVR Controller Binding interface in VR, while EmuVR is already running, bring SteamVR's dashboard, click Settings > Controller Bindings > EMUVR, then select the respective binding shown below.

Alternatively, instead of doing this in VR, you can use this url to open that same interface in your browser: http://localhost:27062/dashboard/controllerbinding.html?app=system.generated.emuvr.exe (You'll still need to have EmuVR running in VR mode to find it in this list)

For Index controllers, select this specific item in the list:

For WMR controllers, select this specific item in the list:

Mapped Controls

When using the official bindings, your controllers will simulate Touch controllers ingame.

See the section above to learn the Touch controls, and then use this list to know which correlated buttons to press in your controller:

Index Controller Notes

Index controllers will fully match Touch controllers features, such as index and thumb tracking.

You'll need to squeeze the controller slightly to press the Grab "button".

As this controller lacks a Start button, Menu has moved to Left B.

WMR Controller Notes

Touch's face buttons are simulated using the trackpad, as shown in the mappings above.

As analog clicking is an unbindable reserved action for SteamVR, they had to be moved to pressing the "out" side on the trackpad, i.e. clicking [left] on the left trackpad simulates clicking the left analog. Doing the same with both hands will trigger the Unfocus Input command.
