Aiming angle adjustment?

[Jim Rooney]

Is there a way to change the (vertical) aiming of the controllers?

There’s this rather common problem, primarily with FPS games, where the gun angle and controller angle don’t exactly make sense…

For example, I love Compound. I play that game all the time. With CV1/Touch, it works brilliantly. Aiming feels natural and accurate.

But, in Driver4VR, I’m using PS Move controllers, which emulate as Vive Wands. Clicking menus and such before I get into the game works great… they’re like laser pointers. But, once in game, they “aim” relative to the emulated flat ring of the Vive wand… which feels horrible. You’re pointing the wand nearly vertically to shoot horizontally. It makes the game nearly unplayable.

If I were able to adjust that angle (making the aim line of the controller point down a bit), then I could aim.

Yes, it would also be possible for the game developer to allow this (and probably a better result), but I’m just looking for any solution I can get 😉

I’d love to be able to play shooters like Compound with my DK2/PSMove/Driver4VR setup!

Yup. That did the trick 🙂
