Shim for SteamVR to map trackpad controls to WMR joystick
This is a simple shim that sits infront of vrclient.dll or vrclient_x64.dll and remaps controls so the WMR joysticks can be used in place of the track pads.
I have tested it with a handful of games with mixed results.
Behaviour per program can be configured using WMR_vr_settings.json file.
Installation:
Copy files to SteamVR bin folder (e.g SteamApps\common\SteamVR\bin) and run install_WMR.bat. If successful, it will say "Ready to go"
Steam VR updates:
When SteamVR updates it will undo the patch. To redo, you must make sure that real_vrclient and real_vrclient_x86 are removed and re-run the installation script.
