Hello, 

Since this version I can't get the Wrist tracker Button press using VBS and Unreal at all. I'am using Steam VR 1.27.5 and UE 5.2.1. No change in setup I just upgrade to VBS 1.12.8.

When I use the Test Controller features in SteamVR, I can see that the UI is different

With VBS 1.12.8 and SteamVR 1.27.5 this is the UI : Button Press is "X"

 

With previous version VBS 1.11.18b UI of test Controller look like this

 

Of course I change Button binding to X instead of Y after Upgrade to 1.12.8

Other part of my setup :

In Unreal Engine I bind motionSources to "Tracker_Camera" and "TrackerKeyboard"

Do you have Any Idea ?

Does the Wrist tracker PCVR Extension for openXR is on the way ?
