Index Controller Use With Pimax Discussion

Yep need to compare settings files with Cas & Chary’s to see what’s different. Why there’s works while others don’t.

The Pimax team is aware of this and working on a solution. Personally I havent recieved the Knuckles yet so I cant confirm as of now, but indeed its strange that C&C have it working without issues as far as I can see…

Might be an idea to see if we can obtain steamvr settings file(s) & pitool settings file to compare & see what is different. Might be a simple edit.

Tomorrow a lot of people like me will receive their knuckles… Lets see…

I regret it a little bit not having ordered the index as well…

I think it is pretty likely Cas and Chary have a bootleg copy of the knuckles controller driver, given that it isn’t available to the public (the version that wasn’t integrated directly into SteamVR).

I just got my shipping info from Steam

What’s the Discord for Pimax btw?

Yeah, I think that’s the most likely scenario.

I’m sure they would have mentioned. But possible. Though a user as I recalled might have said they had the old driver & Steamvr overwrites it.

Good theory, because the external drivers were only available to those who received the test versions, if somehow they have a manual installation Steam might not know that they exist and therefore not update (delete) them

Okay folks need someone with knuckles to pop over to discord. We might have the fix

yes said possible fix. Found a hidden setting

Is not an hidden setting, but missing files… But I finally found a working solution, better opening a new thread (link incoming)

At a guess OpenVRpaths?

Sounds good but did want a test before raising hopes too far. Renamed driver & path.
