elite-vr-cockpit VS OpenVR-AdvancedSettings

For those interested I googled and found https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit

The CPU hit is very real though, but doing a space sim... isn't that one of the moments where having a cable or not having it is when it matters least? (btw in the off chance you don't already know it... https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit )

I'd also recommend HOTAS and Elite Dangerous, but if you just want to try it first there is a mod for Elite Dangerous that adds support for VR controllers. I don't know whether it still works well, but I have used it a lot in the past and it was surprisingly good. HOTAS is of course much better, but the virtual controls work fine and to me are much more fun than using a gamepad.

Here you go.

This project might be of interest.

It's another low barrier to entry option for 'VR controls' in a cockpit settings; virtual cockpit interfaces. They are essentially a 3D overlay, where you position the controls over their in-game counterpart, and will allow you to interact with the cockpit without the VR animations. https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit I think a similar system could work nicely if VR controls was a dev goal in the early phases.

elite-vr-cockpit Pretty awesome if you are into elite

Thank you for this! I am familiar with Steam Depot and rolling back updates, but when I looked into it for SteamVR, it seemed like it required several Depots and I wasn't willing to go that ham into it just yet (before asking for help). Luckily my problem was fixed by simply removing OVRAS, but maybe your solution will help someone else, so I very much appreciate the effort you put into your answer as well!

VAFS Redux works well in VR in my experience and you don't need to use quick slots for activation since you can send keyboard hotkeys in VR using OpenVR2Key or OpenVR-AdvancedSettings.

For Steam you could probably use an Overlay app. Examples of this include https://github.com/dantman/elite-vr-cockpit, https://github.com/OpenVR-Advanced-Settings/OpenVR-AdvancedSettings and https://github.com/pottedmeat7/OpenVR-WalkInPlace (or Natural Locomotion)

I'm curious what you mean by MixedVR Manager is broken. After reading a lot of github it is sounding like the SteamVR room setup loop may be a bug / problem with OVR Advanced Settings...

I don't think OpenVR Advanced Settings does exactly what you're asking but you might be able to tweak it a bit to get what you want.
