This is great, I never thought of using a "holding" state that just has an empty animation. Thank you!

[@Airbee]

Glad to help :D

You can also build this into worlds by having a sphere or box bone following on your arm or hand parts. As long as you set up the collider with the correct names so that no other triggers can turn it on. You could also have it as a world constraint.

How do you test it in unity? Everytime i try with a contact sender nothing happens

[@kyleheusser4477]

So I've been trying to set up a hole multi layered menu for this and I'm having network de sync issues. Do you know anything about network synced animations? they just seem to confuse me. I find it funny I came up with a different buffer idea by having the same animation but change the conditions. So it was like this: if true toggle on, next state if false toggle on, next state if true toggle off, next state if false toggle off. it's basically the same thing but without the null animation and the transition duration time.

can you please make a tutorial on how to open up for example a rocket pad and control it with your mouse or headset ( in vr ) then be able to shoot rockets out of it where it collides with any wall and explodes? thx

[@Airbee]

Sorry, that's out of my knowledge scope ^^' Good luck!

[@TheDenVx]

Once i press it its enabled and i can`t dissable it. How to make it ON\OFF?

[@kiwiplaysvr6798]

I have it linked to a blendshape animation, and it toggles it on fine, but then the animation stops and it goes away

[@Tiger__]

i try make door work. it close but seem broken for me. it keep going bake to def o.O

[@Joyntie]

hey, maybe you can help me, im trying to do somethign similar but with a song and haveing the toggel on an object, follwoing your tutrial amd eit so that the song turned of after oen second. after modifing it i have it so it turn on when i touch the contact, but cant get it to turn of with touchign the same contact again.

[@Airbee]

Should be the exact same setup as in the video, no? Just toggle some game object that has the audio source component, with play on awake enabled

[@Joyntie]

@@Airbee i hoped so too, but all i get islike 1 seconds of the Song befor it stops

What kind of VR do you use and what kind of equipment do you have? Thank you

[@Airbee]

I am using a Pico 4 with Wireless PCVR Streaming (Virtual Desktop) with Valve Index controllers, 4x Tundra Trackers (Elbows and Feet) and 1 HTC Vive 3.0 tracker (Hip). Currently i have 3 Valve Basestations 2.0, a 4th one is currently being delivered. For the Pico 4 i have the BoboVR Battery Pack so that i can hotswap batteries and have infinite battery time. Other than that i dont think i have many other accessories.. VR Optician lenses for inside the pico, and a couple of small DIY things. ^^

[@user-lw5zc8wo7g]

@@Airbee Thank you very much. I'm a beginner who is considering between Pico 4 and Quest 2, and I hope to achieve the same level as you in live streaming.

[@Airbee]

@@user-lw5zc8wo7g Ayy good luck :D If you plan to use the headset in Standalone mode (no PC connection) a lot, then i would say Quest 2 as its standalone Software Catalogue is way greater than the one from Pico. If you will mainly use it at home with PCVR Streaming, then i'd say Pico 4 as it is better than the Quest 2 in hardware in basically every way.

Do you still need the buffer if you using instead of Constant Receiver Type the on Enter?

[@Airbee]

Good point lol, no i dont think you need it then. Forgot about that thing xD

[@Sohneg]

@@Airbee I tried it but is doesn't work :P

[@S0K0N0MI]

Is there a way to make this doubletap? I keep having accidental activations.

[@Airbee]

Sure, we already have one "Empty" buffer, you can just create another "Empty" buffer in between where it also has the condition of touching it. Soo, its in MenuOff State, Touch it once, it gets to empty buffer 1, touch it a second time it goes to empty buffer 2 and then gets to MenuOn.

[@S0K0N0MI]

@@Airbee Thanks for responding! Ive already gotten to that point, but that wont reset if the second touch doesn't happen. Instead, the first touch just 'arms' it for another single touch much later. Is there a way to make it loop back to the first buffer if the wait for a second touch times out?

[@Airbee]

@@S0K0N0MI Ok great :D So from the first buffer - make another transition back to MenuOff. This transition will have NO condition, but a long fixed transition duration (for example 3 seconds) Then set the "Interruption Source" to "Current State". If you select the Buffer Animation, there is a list of all the transitions going away from this node(buffer), should be 2: one going to the second buffer if you press the button again, and one going back to MenuOff without condition. Make sure, that the Transition to the 2nd Buffer is the first in the list (you can drag and reorder them). Now you have 3 seconds time to press it a 2nd time, to activate the menu :)

@@S0K0N0MI actually i made it into a video really quick xd kzbin.info/www/bejne/opSYi6pqh7KBmqs

[@amariasynth6890]

Seems to make it so the menu is always showing, I followed the tutorial step by step so I'm not sure what I have done wrong.I'll upload it and see if its the same in game!

[@amariasynth6890]

I uploaded and on the avatar the menu is constantly showing and if i press the button it just flashes on and off

[@amariasynth6890]

I since found a different way of doing it that works very well for me but thankyou for the video regardless!

[@YeeHawRev]

@@amariasynth6890 Hello! How did you end up going about this?

[@Tenchinu]

now do a world :)

[@Airbee]

i already made a couple of worlds :P

[@Tenchinu]

now that is a great vid idea… and tutorial for that matter

[@Airbee]

@@Tenchinu awww helll naaaah xD Its been over 2 years since i last touched my worlds, so many things have changed and i am absolutely clueless about them
