Walk In Place Custom Controller (ovrwip_controller) does not appear as an option in SteamVR controller bindings menu.

Hi pottedmeat7,

New user here. I'm trying to get your wonderful mod working and I can't tell if something is missing or broken, or if I'm just a dummy.

I'm following along with your picture guide, and when I get to the step where I pick the WIP controller, it's just not there as an option.

Thanks for all your great work :)

Hey chars,
Thanks for trying out the project!
If the ovrwip_controller is not showing in steamvr its likely it hasn't been created.
The ovrwip_controller will only be added after you have the number of controllers that you selected (either 1 or 2) have been turned on. After that you need to have loaded a complete data model record of your selected tracked devices.
So create a data model first, with HMD, controllers, etc. You can save that to a profile so you don't have to re-select it each startup. Then you check "Enable WIP" once everything is setup, it will create the virtual "ovrwip_controller" you will see a extra controller added like this

Really the virtual controller is the last step once all of your tracked devices, model, and settings are setup. Then you can create the steamvr bindings.
